The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guests： Carol Roth & Donica Hudson ｜ 4⧸26⧸23

00:00:00.580 Hey, today's podcast, you're not going to get anyplace else. I mean, the more analysis on what happened to Tucker Carlson, whether it's true or not, I don't know.

00:00:11.600 But we've got a few stories to tell that kind of echo some of the stories that may be dismissed as, well, we've seen it happen in Foxwood.

00:00:21.780 That's on today's podcast. Also, we talk a little bit about the economy, the new Republican ad that's all AI and so dystopian. It's just crazy.

00:00:33.900 Really? We point out, maybe not so crazy. No crazier than this. Also, what else do we do, Stu?

00:00:43.820 Carol Roth talking about the economy.

00:00:45.640 Yeah, I already mentioned that.

00:00:47.740 Were you even listening?

00:00:49.240 I was not listening to that part currently.

00:00:50.560 Were you listening to the show today?

00:00:52.520 What show?

00:00:53.440 The one we just did.

00:00:56.400 That was on the air?

00:01:00.020 Oh my God! Don't air that!

00:01:02.980 No, don't upload this.

00:01:04.760 A podcast that, you know, Stu will hear for the first time along with you.

00:01:09.640 Brought to you in part by American-Giant.com.

00:01:13.680 American-Giant. 95% of the clothing in America in the 1960s bought and made right here in America.

00:01:21.740 Now, flip that. It's even worse. 97% is made overseas.

00:01:26.040 We talk about what they're doing to the shipping companies.

00:01:29.660 They're demanding that the ships that carry all the cargo stop using oil.

00:01:37.400 That's going to be a problem if we don't make stuff here.

00:01:41.040 That's where American-Giant comes in.

00:01:44.780 They are begging people.

00:01:46.780 They told me.

00:01:49.080 We would love to congratulate Levi's for just taking 5% of the jeans that they make and make them back here in America.

00:01:57.380 5% would make a huge difference to employment and our skills and not only to our economy, but our way of life.

00:02:05.640 American-Giant is doing just that.

00:02:08.840 They make everything here in America, and it's really great clothing.

00:02:12.760 American-Giant.com slash Glenn.

00:02:16.120 That's American-Giant.com slash Glenn.

00:02:21.060 Go there now.

00:02:21.720 Here's a podcast.

00:02:22.660 Stu, pay attention.

00:02:31.580 You're listening to

00:02:32.740 The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:35.640 There are a lot of things to discuss today.

00:02:43.300 Let's get into the Tucker Carlson stories.

00:02:47.760 There is one from Rolling Stone that I believe absolutely.

00:02:51.980 The headline was,

00:02:53.000 Fox News has a secret file to keep him in check.

00:02:55.860 Rolling Stone.

00:02:57.020 Absolutely believe that.

00:02:58.380 I've told you that story.

00:03:00.000 I think I've told you that story about a meeting I had with Roger Ailes,

00:03:04.740 where he was bluffing.

00:03:07.140 And the only reason why I knew that is because I'd already told you everything bad in my life.

00:03:12.180 I don't hide from the bad things and the mistakes that I've made.

00:03:15.940 I learn from them and try to use them to help, you know, shape today and tomorrow in my own life.

00:03:25.440 And I've written books about it and blah, blah, blah, blah, I vomited on the air for years.

00:03:30.920 So I wasn't afraid of anything that they could dig up because I'm clean.

00:03:34.920 Um, and, uh, so he was bluffing and he had this big, I knew they were investigating me because we just knew, uh, I won't go into all the details, had a big file on.

00:03:49.420 Um, then he bluffed, made the biggest error of his, his life with me.

00:03:54.540 He said, you know, you've got a wonderful wife and I am now, my hair is up on the back of my neck.

00:04:01.860 And I'm like, yes, I do.

00:04:03.480 Why do you say that?

00:04:04.740 And he said, well, it's always a shame when somebody does something to hurt a woman like that. 0.98

00:04:08.260 And man, I almost crawled over the desk at him and I just looked at him and, and said, that's why that has never happened.

00:04:17.480 And I looked at him and we had like a third grade stare down for, we just kept staring at each other.

00:04:23.760 He was, you know, who's going to flinch.

00:04:25.620 And I'm like, I'm not flinching, dude.

00:04:28.320 I know that they do this to all of their talent.

00:04:32.520 They use, they investigate, investigate, investigate.

00:04:35.840 If they have anything, they use it against you.

00:04:40.440 If, uh, uh, should I tell the story of the first day?

00:04:46.180 I don't think we've ever told that.

00:04:47.960 I don't know.

00:04:49.000 I don't.

00:04:49.520 Do you remember the, the card slipped across the table to me?

00:04:54.240 Yeah.

00:04:55.020 I honestly don't remember the specifics of the story you're thinking of.

00:04:58.260 So I'm a little, a little nervous.

00:05:00.040 So here, I think this person is, don't give, you know, I won't give their name, but I think they're still there.

00:05:09.140 Um, I had my welcome to the company meeting and I was sitting there and I was sitting there with my business partner at the time.

00:05:17.400 Um, and, uh, and I'm like, okay, you know, here's your, here's your hoodie.

00:05:23.860 Here's your cup.

00:05:24.940 Right.

00:05:25.180 Right.

00:05:25.480 Here's your paperwork for, you know, and then the last thing was, and this woman never looked at me the entire time. 1.00

00:05:34.380 She never made eye contact with me and I'm like, am I so hideous that she just can't look at me?

00:05:41.600 She was looking at my business partner the entire time.

00:05:44.740 And I, I even tried to like sit a little closer to my business partner to try to get, you know, maybe, maybe she can't move her head or I don't know what it is.

00:05:53.340 So who will she look at me? 1.00

00:05:54.560 She never looked at me once until the very end.

00:05:59.960 And she said, look, the last thing I want to say to you is we all make mistakes and you'll find yourself in a situation at some point.

00:06:11.240 And you'll be like, Oh, what do I do before you call an attorney before you call the police before you make a call to anyone?

00:06:21.820 And she reached down in her purse, she took out a card, she put it on the table and she slid it across.

00:06:28.180 And as she said this, the first time and only time she made eye contact with me, she slid it across the table and she said, you'd be amazed at what we can make disappear.

00:06:40.740 And I was like, Oh my, I'm working for the mob.

00:06:45.600 What is that?

00:06:47.520 Okay.

00:06:47.760 Um, I don't know if the, everybody got that talk, but I got that talk.

00:06:52.840 They probably assumed you were worse than everyone else, which, you know, is not a crazy assumption.

00:06:58.820 That was, that was so I walked away.

00:07:01.500 That was day one.

00:07:02.440 And I walked away and I'm like, wow.

00:07:05.860 Um, who did I just get in bed with?

00:07:08.700 And, uh, and then, then nothing ever happened except, you know, then they investigated me and tried to use anything that they could find against me.

00:07:16.360 Luckily I couldn't anyway.

00:07:17.660 So the story from the Rolling Stone Fox news has a secret file to keep him in check.

00:07:23.800 Yeah.

00:07:24.340 I don't, I don't disagree.

00:07:25.860 Is it really secret at this point?

00:07:27.560 I mean, this has been certainly an open secret within media circles.

00:07:32.220 Yeah.

00:07:32.560 And I doubt he has everybody.

00:07:34.480 I doubt he has anything that he is ashamed of.

00:07:37.680 You know, that's, that's more of a warning.

00:07:39.900 That's a leak, uh, to Rolling Stone.

00:07:43.140 And that's the other thing they do.

00:07:44.540 They leak things.

00:07:46.180 Allegedly.

00:07:46.940 Allegedly.

00:07:47.620 Allegedly.

00:07:48.160 Thank you.

00:07:48.880 Um, some people have alleged that.

00:07:50.320 Yeah.

00:07:50.840 And you're just covering their alleging of that.

00:07:53.100 It was amazing.

00:07:53.920 Roger Ailes. 0.99

00:07:54.460 Every time there would be a leak, he'd say, damn it. 0.99

00:07:57.560 Who did that? 0.98

00:07:58.540 And I said, I don't know, somebody in the PR department, according to my sources, you've

00:08:04.160 got to be, do you have a name?

00:08:05.300 No, I don't have a name.

00:08:06.640 Well, I'm going to look into it. 0.99

00:08:08.240 Damn it. 0.99

00:08:08.600 That makes me mad. 1.00

00:08:09.460 And they never, they're never able to find the person.

00:08:11.580 It's like, it's like the Supreme Court leak.

00:08:13.500 Yes.

00:08:13.840 You just could never come up with a person.

00:08:15.100 It's like, it could be the person that was leaking that stuff was the person that put

00:08:18.800 the pipe bomb there in January 6th.

00:08:21.200 I don't know.

00:08:21.660 Lots of unsolved mysteries.

00:08:22.760 I don't know.

00:08:23.140 That's why they had a show about it.

00:08:24.560 Where was Ray Epps?

00:08:25.460 Uh, okay.

00:08:27.300 Uh, so then you have another story on Tucker Carlson.

00:08:32.080 And I don't know, do we have the, uh, do we have the, uh, clip of this?

00:08:38.540 He gave a speech last week, last Friday, and Friday apparently is the night that they made

00:08:45.700 the decision.

00:08:46.500 And he gave a speech for the 50th anniversary of the Heritage Foundation.

00:08:50.500 And he said this.

00:08:52.800 It's completely obvious.

00:08:54.120 And I think two things.

00:08:57.400 One, we should say that and stop engaging in these totally fraudulent debates where we

00:09:06.300 are using the terms that we used in 1991 when I started at Heritage as if maybe, you know,

00:09:11.300 I could just win the debate if I marshaled more facts.

00:09:13.580 I've tried.

00:09:14.120 That doesn't work.

00:09:14.880 And two, maybe we should all take just like 10 minutes a day to say a prayer about it.

00:09:23.340 I'm serious.

00:09:24.300 Like, why not?

00:09:25.620 And I'm saying that to you not as some kind of evangelist.

00:09:29.960 I'm literally saying that to you as an Episcopalian. 0.77

00:09:32.860 The Samaritans of our time. 0.93

00:09:34.980 I'm coming to you from the most humble and lowly theological position you can.

00:09:41.680 I'm literally an Episcopalian.

00:09:43.700 Okay.

00:09:43.940 And even I have concluded it might be worth taking just 10 minutes out of your busy schedule

00:09:51.300 to say a prayer for the future.

00:09:53.060 And I hope you will.

00:09:54.100 Okay, now let me give you some context on this.

00:09:58.760 He was talking about the difference of good and evil and, you know, marshalling, you know,

00:10:04.400 facts to fight things like CRT and DEI, et cetera, et cetera.

00:10:08.660 Now, Rupert's son, Rupert Murdoch's son, is the one that made the decision to fire Carlson

00:10:19.060 along with Suzanne Scott.

00:10:20.660 But this is something that bothers Rupert deeply, deeply bothers him.

00:10:30.400 I was told not to use the word God on the air anymore.

00:10:34.960 And I was like, wow.

00:10:38.240 Okay.

00:10:39.340 And they're like, you know, you got to stop using it.

00:10:42.300 And three months go by and he comes back and he says, do you know how many times did you?

00:10:47.820 Do you not remember when I said, don't talk about God all the time?

00:10:51.440 And I said, yes.

00:10:53.100 And he said, do you know how many times you've said God on the air since that?

00:10:59.680 I looked at him and I kind of laughed and I said, you counted?

00:11:03.120 And he said, I can't remember the number, but it was like 91 times.

00:11:06.860 I'm like, huh?

00:11:08.880 Now stop it.

00:11:10.580 Okay.

00:11:10.860 Well, I didn't.

00:11:11.860 But that really bothered them.

00:11:14.920 That really bothered them.

00:11:16.900 Rupert doesn't like that.

00:11:18.160 There was a dinner with Rupert and his ex-fiancee a couple of months ago.

00:11:28.940 Carlson was at the dinner.

00:11:31.160 This is according to a source.

00:11:32.600 And, you know, this is Vanity Fair.

00:11:33.800 So what do you know?

00:11:36.260 They reported that Murdoch and Smith called off their two-week engagement because Smith

00:11:42.020 had told Tucker Carlson he was a messenger from God.

00:11:46.600 Murdoch had seen Carlson and Smith discuss religion firsthand.

00:11:50.200 In March, Carlson had dinner at Murdoch's Bel Air Vineyard with Murdoch and Smith, according

00:11:55.300 to the source.

00:11:56.120 During dinner, Smith pulled out a Bible and started reading passages from the book of Exodus.

00:12:00.980 Rupert just stood there and stared, said the source.

00:12:05.880 A few days after the dinner, Murdoch and Smith called off the wedding.

00:12:09.940 By taking Carlson off the air, Murdoch is also taking away his ex's favorite show.

00:12:16.500 I think there is something to that.

00:12:19.700 It's one thing to be doubtful of God, but doing it when you're 92 is another.

00:12:25.320 Yeah, you know, it just feels like that's the time to just be maybe on the other side of

00:12:30.360 that argument.

00:12:30.820 Right.

00:12:31.140 You know what?

00:12:32.400 It's like Constantine.

00:12:34.220 Hey, I had to do some really horrible things. 0.96

00:12:36.060 I had to rape and pillage my whole life, but I'm dying, Doc. 0.95

00:12:39.020 I've got about five minutes. 0.98

00:12:40.260 I confess.

00:12:41.640 I love Jesus.

00:12:45.380 I don't know how far that gets you in heaven.

00:12:48.060 I don't know either, but I'd take the risk at 92.

00:12:51.220 I certainly wouldn't be leaking this stuff to the media.

00:12:54.360 I certainly would do the exact same thing.

00:12:59.180 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. 1.00

00:13:03.380 All right, you sick, twisted freak. 0.97

00:13:05.700 So there's a couple of things going on. 0.99

00:13:07.740 First of all, I read this op-ed and I didn't even read.

00:13:11.040 It was from the blaze.

00:13:12.560 I didn't read who wrote it.

00:13:14.640 It was Biden hasn't been investing in America.

00:13:17.500 He's been killing the middle class. 0.98

00:13:19.140 And I'm reading it and I get down to the last part and I'm like, we've got to get this person on.

00:13:26.620 And then I see at the bottom, Carol Roth, her new book, You Will Own Nothing.

00:13:31.920 Carol, you and I are on.

00:13:34.180 We have like mind melded some way or another.

00:13:39.140 Take us through your op-ed that's on the blaze.

00:13:42.040 Yeah, I think we're spending a lot of time together on air, Glenn.

00:13:45.420 So we're starting to think the same way.

00:13:48.420 So, you know, Biden launches this plan for reelection and talks about how he's been investing in America.

00:13:56.980 And all I can think about is the fact that we cannot quite literally afford another four years of Biden because he and his cronies, they've been making themselves out to be champions of the middle class.

00:14:11.060 But all they've done is decimate the middle class. 0.75

00:14:14.580 If you think about what's happened since day one with his energy policy, not only making direct energy costs more expensive, but all of the ancillary products that go along with that.

00:14:26.240 The inflation that has happened under his watch, 40 year historic inflation that we are still contending with.

00:14:34.900 That is a real cost to families, things like hiring IRS agents to go after not the billionaires.

00:14:43.320 You don't have $80 billion to go after the 800 billionaires, but obviously to go after the middle class.

00:14:49.820 ESG doubling down on the fact that they want to prioritize their investments and the things that they're interested in politically over your investment return.

00:15:02.240 On and on and on and on.

00:15:03.920 And then he talks about the fact that he's been fiscally responsible.

00:15:08.340 Not only has he run up substantial deficits, but for this fiscal year, the first half of it, we have a $1.1 trillion deficit, not spending, but a deficit that hasn't been paid for for just the first half of the year.

00:15:23.980 For six months.

00:15:24.860 I just want to just let's say this and then pause for a minute.

00:15:29.680 In six months, we have spent more money than we had to the tune of $1.1 trillion.

00:15:40.340 And there is no emergency going on.

00:15:43.600 They can't hide this under, oh, it's COVID or there's something special.

00:15:48.220 This is just the trajectory of spending that they are putting us on the path to.

00:15:53.840 And, you know, we're having this argument over the debt ceiling and how we're going to finance all of this debt that we have.

00:16:00.700 The reality is that nobody in the world wants our debt anymore.

00:16:05.980 There's no demand for our debt.

00:16:07.620 In fact, big countries like China are actually getting rid of our debts.

00:16:12.960 Investors are, you know, maybe on a short term basis will invest, but there's not trillions of dollars of demand every year for new debt.

00:16:21.260 So the only buyer that is going to exist for the debt is the Federal Reserve.

00:16:27.760 And that means that they are going to, on an ongoing basis into the future, be the ones that have to buy the debt, which means they are going to continue to devalue your dollar.

00:16:38.180 They're going to keep inflation as a part of your life.

00:16:40.980 And this is part of the entire plan to make sure that they come out smelling like a rose and you own nothing.

00:16:49.940 You know, I'm doing a special on conspiracy theories tonight and how, gee, all of them turn out to be conspiracy facts.

00:16:57.820 But when it comes to finance, there are a lot of people that are just pounding the drum.

00:17:05.300 And it's it's almost well, I think it is actually evil because so many people will be unprepared when it when it finally hits.

00:17:13.900 But I said back in 2009, the Fed will begin to buy our debt.

00:17:19.520 And they said it will never happen, never happen.

00:17:24.600 And I said, it's coming.

00:17:25.980 It is coming.

00:17:27.740 So now they're doing that.

00:17:29.560 Now they also said that the dollar would never collapse.

00:17:34.520 And I have heard really smart broadcasters say this talk of the dollar being, you know, dumped as the king dollar is nonsense.

00:17:44.880 It's not going to happen.

00:17:46.460 It's not going to be devalued.

00:17:49.180 We've already gone from 73 percent in 2001 of being everybody's gold standard.

00:17:57.260 73 percent of of all of the the I guess you would call them sovereign funds where they're holding the wealth reserve.

00:18:05.540 Yeah, the reserves.

00:18:06.220 Thank you.

00:18:06.940 Reserve currencies.

00:18:07.780 That was the U.S. dollar.

00:18:09.600 We're down now to 47 percent and we have gained speed on losing it 10 times faster than the last decade.

00:18:20.360 This is a problem.

00:18:22.300 Yes, you took the words out of my mouth.

00:18:24.680 The acceleration of the dumping of the dollar on the world stage is pretty staggering.

00:18:31.600 Now, you know, we always go back to the fact that we are the the cleanest shirt in the laundry or the skinniest kid at fat camp.

00:18:38.660 You know, we still have a very resilient population who is very productive on a relative basis to the rest of the world and a lot of good things that are happening.

00:18:48.720 And frankly, that is what is backing our dollar on the international stage.

00:18:53.220 It's not the faith in the government that they're going to do the right thing, as they like to say.

00:18:57.180 It's the fact that we have this productive population as well as the military.

00:19:02.120 But, you know, over time, certainly there are a lot of actors that are looking to shift the alliance.

00:19:07.940 So even if it's not the dollar goes away, it just becomes one of several different reserves that are being used.

00:19:16.300 It completely changes the equation for us, Glenn, because one of the biggest privileges that there are a lot of cons with being the reserve currency.

00:19:23.900 But one of the biggest privileges is the fact that the that we get an arbitrage opportunity.

00:19:28.960 It keeps our debt artificially low.

00:19:31.380 And that has allowed the U.S. government to finance their expansion and become unwieldy at a very low cost of capital on the back of basically everybody in the world, which they're not very happy about.

00:19:43.920 If that goes away, that's what's called the exorbitant privilege, then that means, again, it becomes more expensive to finance the debt, which theoretically you would think is a red flag to the government.

00:19:56.020 You know, as the Fed raises interest rates, as it becomes more expensive for the government to finance debt, it should be a signal to say, OK, well, we've got to stop spending.

00:20:04.920 Right. What are they doing? They are accelerating spending.

00:20:08.900 This is a fiscal runaway train and it is going to derail if we do not do something to stop.

00:20:14.780 This is exactly like if you own a house and you bought your house at zero percent and you've been buying them for zero percent and you just start stacking up houses and you really can't afford them.

00:20:26.660 And then the interest rate goes up to eight percent and you're on an adjustable mortgage here.

00:20:33.100 You didn't lock it in. So it goes up to five percent, eight percent, ten percent.

00:20:37.480 And you accelerate the amount of houses and how fast you're buying houses.

00:20:44.240 Instead, anyone with reason would stop buying houses, they would reduce their debt, not continue to not only pile on debt, but increase the the the the the volume and the speed of accumulating that debt.

00:21:08.220 It's crazy. It's crazy.

00:21:09.920 It is crazy. And what we're asking for shouldn't be a big shift.

00:21:14.480 If you think about how much the government took in in quote unquote revenue, which is, you know, primarily our tax dollars last year, it was a hair shy of five trillion dollars.

00:21:25.960 They had five trillion dollars that they could have spent and not gone into an extra deficit that needed to be financed with debt.

00:21:34.140 If you roll back to twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen, they spent at those levels.

00:21:39.700 I mean, it's not very long ago that we would have a surplus that they could use to pay down the debt and try to get us on track.

00:21:46.560 But they don't care because this is not part of the plan.

00:21:50.020 This is not part of the new financial world order where the stakes are shifting.

00:21:54.620 They see that the stakes are shifting.

00:21:56.620 And instead of trying to do the right thing and stopping them, they're giving into human nature.

00:22:01.760 They're giving into greed and power.

00:22:04.180 They're going to try to get everything for themselves.

00:22:06.780 And in the process, as I've said before, you will own nothing.

00:22:10.720 So here is the reality of America that if you're not living it, you need to know about it.

00:22:17.480 McDonald's now says they're having a problem because they've raised their prices due to inflation, everything else.

00:22:22.580 A McDonald's meal now is nine dollars, one McDonald's meal.

00:22:29.720 They're saying people are downsizing even more than they already have downsized.

00:22:34.980 And there's no stimulus money.

00:22:36.720 There's nothing coming.

00:22:38.320 So people are starting to really live on the edge.

00:22:43.020 This isn't good.

00:22:44.760 And then on top of it, if anybody thought our banking crisis was over, can you tell me what's happening with First Republic today?

00:22:52.580 So, you know, as we talked about before, there certainly, you know, we weren't we didn't think that we were going to be out of the woodwork when it came to bank crises.

00:23:02.960 And one of the things that I did, which I can share in a tweet, I think I've sent over to you, is I kind of plotted out some of what I call the lowlights because I can't call them highlights of the Great Recession financial crisis.

00:23:14.380 And it really does kind of show in a staggering detail how long it took for things to play out.

00:23:20.520 And so we really are probably still in somewhat early innings, maybe a third or getting close to halfway through what could possibly happen if history indeed rhymes.

00:23:32.360 But what happened with First Republic, in a sense, is not dissimilar to what happened with Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

00:23:38.900 And certainly they have not yet collapsed.

00:23:41.380 But as they reported their financial results, they let us know that in the last quarter, 40 percent of deposits exited that particular company, even though they had gotten a cash infusion, a massive cash infusion from 11 different banks.

00:23:57.360 And all of this is the outgrowth of the Fed policy, of not having the market make decisions, but of this indulgent, negligent Fed policy that just put too much money into the market that couldn't be handled.

00:24:13.000 Now, every bank did something a little bit different.

00:24:15.580 If you had Signature Bank, it was on the crypto side.

00:24:18.040 In Silicon Valley Bank, they put too much into treasuries.

00:24:20.480 It was different for First Republic because they were making loans out to wealthy people who basically said, oh, I can get all this money in the stock market.

00:24:30.140 Maybe I'll take a one percent mortgage out on my house.

00:24:33.040 And now they're sitting around with mortgages that are paying them less than what they have to pay for deposits.

00:24:39.940 So it's not a good situation.

00:24:41.860 But again, it's engendered by Fed policy.

00:24:45.480 Yeah, and we're not done here.

00:24:50.480 So you may not remember, we were going to do another restoring event.

00:25:02.620 This was going to be called Restoring the Covenant.

00:25:05.620 And we had gone up and started planning it.

00:25:11.020 And we were going to have a huge event.

00:25:13.800 It was going to be an amazing event.

00:25:16.440 And pretty much lost my shirt on that because COVID happened.

00:25:21.940 And gee, I just spent all that money and no one can come.

00:25:28.340 And so it was kind of bad, kind of bad.

00:25:30.400 But it was a glorious thing that I think has to be done.

00:25:37.360 And that is restoring the covenant.

00:25:40.380 A covenant with God is something that is deadly serious.

00:25:44.700 You don't break a covenant with God.

00:25:47.700 You break it, you know, he's not going to be mocked.

00:25:51.080 So you don't break your covenant with God.

00:25:53.020 Well, we have made all kinds of covenants.

00:25:55.580 Our founding fathers, when George Washington was elected, he went down to, I'm trying to remember what the churches down in Wall Street do.

00:26:04.500 Is it St. John's?

00:26:06.560 St. John's?

00:26:06.940 I can't remember.

00:26:07.600 But it's right at the end by Wall Street.

00:26:10.400 And they just all walked from the inaugural speech there.

00:26:13.600 And he prayed on his knees for four hours and dedicated the nation to God.

00:26:19.820 And Lincoln did it.

00:26:20.980 We've done it over and over and over again.

00:26:22.800 Well, we've broken all of our covenants.

00:26:24.500 I mean, I think if we're trying to get rid of pedophile as, you know, as something that we deem wrong, I think we might be in the territory of being smote, smited.

00:26:39.220 One of those words from the Bible, it's common.

00:26:42.460 Smootin.

00:26:43.280 Smootin.

00:26:43.980 Is that the proper language?

00:26:45.500 All right.

00:26:45.720 So that Smootin stuff is coming our way. 1.00

00:26:50.040 We need to rededicate ourselves and make a covenant with God as a nation again.

00:26:56.080 So Donica Hudson didn't know her at all.

00:27:00.120 She sends me, I don't even know how I got it because it's really hard to get stuff to me, but she got a video to me a few weeks ago.

00:27:08.360 So Donica, you were listening, and what was it that I said that made you say, you've got to know about this event and you've got to come?

00:27:17.440 Well, ironically, and great to be with you, Glenn.

00:27:19.800 Thank you.

00:27:20.480 Ironically, it was, you were on Tucker Carlson.

00:27:24.120 Oh, that's right.

00:27:24.860 That's right.

00:27:25.480 Wow.

00:27:26.100 Yeah.

00:27:26.440 And then on the broadcast the next morning, you reiterated it.

00:27:29.880 What you said is not only are we a covenant people, but you were talking about the state of our nation.

00:27:35.780 And by the way, I'm going to play that video when we introduce you tonight.

00:27:39.420 Oh, good.

00:27:40.200 Everybody can see my fat face on TV as well as in person. 0.60

00:27:44.100 All right. 0.74

00:27:44.660 Come on.

00:27:45.240 You're beautiful.

00:27:46.200 It's all right.

00:27:48.180 But you can't watch that short interview and not be moved.

00:27:54.100 In fact, I had a barrage of people sending me that interview because we were planning this event.

00:27:59.300 Well, in all honesty, I didn't know that you had planned a Restoring Covenant event in Gettysburg.

00:28:05.160 But I had this grieving come over me when you said that basically our country is in shambles.

00:28:14.520 We don't know God.

00:28:16.040 You made a national call to prayer right there on Tucker Carlson.

00:28:20.940 And I thought, oh, my goodness, something's happening.

00:28:24.300 I couldn't quit weeping.

00:28:27.960 And I don't go around crying all the time.

00:28:29.960 I'm a doer, you know?

00:28:31.100 So what happened before this?

00:28:33.320 What led you to think we have to restore the covenant?

00:28:36.380 Because that's not normal thinking in today's world.

00:28:39.700 OK, let me just go there.

00:28:41.000 And it ties in with what you were talking about with the pedophilia.

00:28:44.000 OK.

00:28:44.240 In 2015, my husband and I sued the federal government, the Department of Education and the Department of Justice for not protecting our children in bathrooms, locker rooms and showers in North Carolina.

00:28:56.580 My daughter was going to be forced to shower with a biological male. 1.00

00:29:01.240 This mama said, no way, not on my watch.

00:29:06.540 And at that point, I began seeking God.

00:29:09.500 What has happened to our country?

00:29:11.040 I think like many people who are listening, you know, we're parents.

00:29:14.760 We're everyday, ordinary moms and dads trying to raise a good family with the American dream.

00:29:20.720 Well, that is just shot out of Hades right now because of the state of our nation.

00:29:25.580 And it's because basically the church has been asleep.

00:29:28.340 So I began to ask God, what's going on?

00:29:31.780 How do we remedy this?

00:29:33.540 And I had a God encounter and I was instructed to pray third heaven prayers.

00:29:39.540 The only problem with that, Glenn, is I didn't have a clue what that meant.

00:29:43.280 I don't know what that means either.

00:29:45.120 I know.

00:29:45.640 Well, I didn't grow up talking about the three heavens, but they are in the Bible.

00:29:50.740 And just for those listening.

00:29:51.740 The moon, the sun, and the stars?

00:29:53.740 Yeah.

00:29:54.080 Well, okay.

00:29:54.480 So the first heaven is where we live here on Earth.

00:29:56.640 The second heaven is really where Satan's throne is.

00:29:59.600 It's what you see, the moon, the sun, the stars, the universe.

00:30:02.200 And the third heaven is what we know about with the streets of gold, paradise, where we'll go to live eternally with Jesus.

00:30:08.800 So I began to find out that our civil covenants are stored in the third heaven, just like Israel's. 0.97

00:30:20.520 And the Lord, so the meaning of pray third heaven prayers took on a whole new meaning.

00:30:26.440 In other words, there are very few covenants that are civil covenants that call upon the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as an interpositionary figure.

00:30:37.040 And ours do, all of them, from the first landing, 1607, dedication covenant, where the colonists landed here, all the way to our Declaration of Independence, our constitution, all 50-state constitutions, our Mayflower Compact.

00:30:52.140 They are all recognized in heaven.

00:30:54.800 And so what God was doing was giving us a solution.

00:30:59.200 Because I didn't go around thinking about covenant.

00:31:01.400 I mean, I knew I made a covenant with my husband till death do us part.

00:31:04.920 I got that.

00:31:05.660 I understand that Jesus died on the cross for us, and that's our blood covenant.

00:31:09.400 I had no clue, and it was a revelation, about civil covenants that called upon God.

00:31:14.380 Good for you.

00:31:15.480 Yeah.

00:31:15.960 Donica, I have to tell you, it's amazing how our leaders in our faith have failed us over and over and over again.

00:31:25.000 And I just heard a priest, I was watching him on YouTube, he was talking about, you know, people say, you're a liberal priest or a conservative priest.

00:31:36.460 No.

00:31:36.680 If you're not standing up as a preacher and saying, abortion is wrong, child mutilation is wrong, then you're not a liberal priest.

00:31:48.680 You're not a priest.

00:31:49.960 That's right.

00:31:50.960 A priest says this.

00:31:52.920 And people have to understand that.

00:31:54.560 So many of our churches, no matter what denomination, they are not willing to stand up and speak the truth.

00:32:02.080 And so he's calling on people, I mean, I don't mean this in an offensive way, like you.

00:32:06.860 Somebody that, you're not trained in it.

00:32:08.880 You don't have a church.

00:32:09.820 You don't have anything.

00:32:10.380 You're just doing it because you'll listen and you'll do it.

00:32:15.520 That's exactly right.

00:32:17.180 And I think it is a grassroots movement of we the people who know Jesus and are in covenant with him that are taking back our country.

00:32:24.720 And you are leading that marvelously too, my friend.

00:32:27.860 I listen to you and I hear the results.

00:32:32.100 You're different from other media.

00:32:34.500 The blaze is different.

00:32:35.700 You have an understanding of the time and your people who listen to you take action to stand for righteousness.

00:32:45.560 That doesn't happen anywhere else that I know of.

00:32:48.480 We have certainly not a lamestream media.

00:32:51.200 Yeah.

00:32:51.600 Well, Donica, I'm going to be there tonight.

00:32:54.580 I'm coming to, is it Virginia Beach where I'm going?

00:32:58.480 I don't even know.

00:32:59.420 They just will put me on a plane.

00:33:01.560 Yep.

00:33:02.300 Virginia Beach.

00:33:03.660 Okay.

00:33:03.880 That's where the colonists landed at Cape Henry and planted that huge wooden cross on April 29th of 1607.

00:33:10.480 Okay.

00:33:10.940 And that's where they made the first covenant on this land, dedicating this land to God and the gospel and Christ and all of it.

00:33:18.460 And I'm getting there as soon as I can this afternoon.

00:33:22.860 Where do people go if they want to attend?

00:33:25.860 Can they still attend?

00:33:28.220 Oh, absolutely.

00:33:29.180 You go to firstlanding1607.com.

00:33:33.560 And if you can't come in person, there's a few tickets left.

00:33:36.820 You can click on register for a live stream.

00:33:40.820 You can also, as a church, register for a live stream, and that's free.

00:33:43.660 I will tell you that I'm going to, I'm probably going to make an announcement there tonight, but I'll do it on the air tomorrow.

00:33:52.420 So, something that you caused in me, and you've started something here, Donica, and I'll see you in a few hours.

00:34:06.380 Thank you.

00:34:07.900 You started something in me, and I am grateful to you.

00:34:11.700 Likewise.

00:34:12.260 Thank you, Donica.

00:34:13.260 Donica Hudson.

00:34:14.020 You can go to firstlanding1607.com.

00:34:17.800 I know if you're not a religious person, because I didn't know any of this stuff either.

00:34:21.260 I didn't know any of it.

00:34:23.840 And I started learning about history and looking at all of the proclamations and the way they were written.

00:34:32.840 And I tried to get our Congress just to pass the exact same proclamation, calling us to fasting, prayer, repentance, and to re-covenant with God, that Abraham Lincoln wrote after Gettysburg.

00:34:52.940 Okay?

00:34:53.960 No one in Congress, no one in the Senate, I mean, Mike Lee was like, I'll introduce it, Glenn.

00:35:00.000 And he said, but it's not going anywhere, anywhere.

00:35:02.780 No one will sign this.

00:35:05.020 And I'm like, it's Abraham Lincoln.

00:35:07.940 Yeah, well, we're not in Abraham Lincoln territory anymore.

00:35:11.760 So, join us, if you can, at Virginia Beach tonight, and join me tomorrow for, I think, a pretty big, exciting announcement.

00:35:21.480 And tonight, also, I'm going to let you in on a secret.

00:35:25.560 I've already taped the show.
