Transcript
00:00:00.000
Big podcast for you today. Thomas Massey talks about what's happening with our meat.
00:00:04.640
I go into a recap of what we talked about on last night's television show, the Wednesday night
00:00:10.660
special. This meat shortage is anything but a meat shortage. It is part of the Great Reset.
00:00:17.540
And as you will hear, it is a coordinated effort to make sure that beef is not on our menus
00:00:25.760
anymore. Also, the the president's amazing speech on the Second Amendment. We have Donald
00:00:34.360
Trump Jr. on today's podcast and somebody that was actually there in Loudoun County to
00:00:41.100
talk about CRT and what happened with the arrests in Loudoun County. Oh, and something that made
00:00:47.680
my head explode. The chairman of our Joint Chiefs, what he said about CRT all on today's
00:00:55.000
podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:10.920
Donald Trump Jr., the executive vice president of the Trump Organization, the author of Liberal
00:01:17.520
Privilege. And he's a white guy. Wouldn't you know it? You can follow him on Twitter,
00:01:24.760
at Donald J. Trump Jr. or his website, Don Jr. dot com. Hey, Don, how are you?
00:01:34.500
I'm I'm good. I'm good. I want to talk a little bit about your dad and what the plans are.
00:01:40.300
He is hinting more and more that he's he's going to be very involved, to put it mildly,
00:01:47.960
in the 2022 and 2024 campaign. But first, let's just talk about some of the things that are going
00:01:57.120
on. The policies of this administration are are closed. The walls are closing in on the average
00:02:05.200
American. It's hurting them financially. We are we're seeing massive inflation headed our way.
00:02:12.900
You know, the beef prices are out of control. The government, you know, the president gave a speech
00:02:20.440
yesterday about the new apparently AFT, not ATF, the new AFT that is there's going to have new
00:02:30.760
regulations to curtail the weapons that we can that we can actually buy and own your thoughts on
00:02:38.560
what's happening. I think it's terrible. And yet it was all so predictable. I mean, liberal
00:02:43.920
privilege. I literally wrote it about exactly what would happen. Yet the media in their role as the
00:02:49.640
marketing arm of the Democrat Party spent an entire 18 months pretending that Joe Biden was going to be
00:02:55.420
a moderate. He was going to be reasonable. He wasn't going to destroy your job. He wasn't going to
00:02:58.920
destroy your economy. He wasn't going to raise energy prices by cutting off our own energy
00:03:03.680
independence, which is also national security, not just economic. It was all there. And they told
00:03:09.080
you it wouldn't happen. He was going to be moderate. But the reality, he's a radical. And if it's not him
00:03:13.040
being a radical, whoever's controlling him, because I think if you watched him give a speech, you realize
00:03:17.460
that he's not in full command of his facilities. So whoever is in charge is the person that is a
00:03:24.120
radical. And you see that every day. Now they're going to infringe on your Second Amendment. Last month,
00:03:28.700
there was energy independence. Two weeks ago, it was kowtowing to Russia and Putin and giving them
00:03:34.020
pipelines where you can't have them. You can't have the energy independence again. You can't have
00:03:38.700
those American hardworking, well-earned, good-paying jobs. It's as though he's working for China and
00:03:45.400
Russia. And this is what's going on. If Donald Trump had this sort of policy towards our enemies,
00:03:50.100
the media would be outraged. But they're sitting there saying, oh, no, this is wonderful.
00:03:53.620
You have a crisis at the border. The list goes on and on. The buyer's remorse. And again,
00:03:59.280
this is coming from Americans who are still influenced heavily by a mainstream media that's
00:04:04.480
so biased and is not telling you an objective truth to what's going on. They're starting to wake
00:04:11.140
up and realize, oh, my God, this is what we got. The buyer's remorse is kicking in. And again,
00:04:16.220
that's with everyone telling you that he's such a wonderful guy. He's totally in charge.
00:04:19.860
When you have American newspapers saying, no, no, no, Putin says Biden looked really sharp. He
00:04:25.440
was really with it. Imagine the commentary that would have come from that if Putin said that about
00:04:30.840
Trump. I mean, it's so condescending. Of course, Putin wants to negotiate with Biden. Biden's not
00:04:35.720
there. Putin's eating our lunch and laughing about it. And the media is saying, no, this is a great,
00:04:41.240
this is good for relations with Russia. It's disgusting. It's despicable. It needs to stop,
00:04:47.740
but it won't. I'm really concerned. We had the right policy towards China. Look, you know,
00:04:55.220
we can be friends to with anybody, but we shouldn't be doing deep business with people who are enslaving
00:05:03.560
their own people, setting up a a gulag system unlike the world has ever seen and and is stated
00:05:14.220
that they are going to rule the world, you know, in the next 20 years, uh, if it takes them that long,
00:05:20.700
uh, and that they are stated enemies of the United States. We're now deeply in bed. There seem to be
00:05:28.620
calling all of the shots. And I think Americans, I don't know what polls say, but I got to believe
00:05:36.200
that most Americans were more in favor of your father's approach, which was hold them accountable
00:05:43.540
and call them for what they are. A hundred percent. And again, you see that, I mean,
00:05:49.740
you have our scientists, cause I I'm being told, and for 18 months, we've all been told you must
00:05:54.000
trust the science. And yet the scientists themselves last week said, well, you know,
00:05:58.100
of course the Wuhan lab theory was always plausible. We just didn't want to be on the same side as Trump.
00:06:02.200
You have Fauci seemingly disobeying a direct order to stop sort of some of the funding of the
00:06:08.220
laboratories and the experiments going over there. At what point in time, Glenn, was the Wuhan lab
00:06:13.060
theory not the most plausible? We are to believe that the lab that studies these exact viruses
00:06:19.120
would not possibly could not possibly have a leak. And if you did, you were a conspiracy theorist.
00:06:24.860
You were thrown off of platforms. You were you were cut out of the scientific community.
00:06:29.000
But we're to believe that three feet out of the doors of that laboratory, someone ate a bat
00:06:33.880
and got everyone in the world sick. I mean, are we idiots? Are we that stupid? And honestly,
00:06:39.600
the next time they tell us to trust the science, could you blame anyone for being like, yeah,
00:06:44.000
hard pass. I'm just I'm not going to trust the science because I don't remember learning science
00:06:48.980
where scientific research is done in a way that is entirely influenced by a narrative of the media
00:06:54.680
because people are worried. We science was supposed to be about fact. It was supposed to be about
00:06:59.880
results, not about a media narrative, not about a liberal narrative and not about stupidity, which
00:07:05.480
it seems our scientific community was basing all of these things on. They're either getting paid off
00:07:11.200
by China. The same thing goes true for vaccinating our children. I mean, schools, the teachers unions,
00:07:15.840
we can't do anything. The World Health Organization, which I also don't trust. But even they're saying,
00:07:21.380
yeah, you probably don't need to vaccinate your kids. It's unnecessary. And yet the teachers unions
00:07:25.300
are requiring it. What is the end game for all of this? I don't understand it. It makes no sense.
00:07:30.740
If you play the statistics and look at it, people under 21, what is it? 99.997 percent survival rate
00:07:37.380
now. That 0.003 percent of people who did die, while terrible, I imagine there's probably some
00:07:43.540
comorbidities in there. Or like so many of the statistics, they were hit by a bus and happened to
00:07:48.540
have COVID. They may not have died from COVID. They died from the bus. But it was definitely
00:07:51.940
a COVID death because that helped fuel the same narrative. What's going on in our country right
00:07:56.640
now is absolutely ridiculous, Glenn. And someone's got to put a stop to it.
00:08:02.340
Well, yesterday, the president threatened. I mean, they Don, you know this better probably than
00:08:10.340
anybody else besides your father. What you just said will be construed by the media and by now
00:08:18.100
this administration as a threat. Somebody's got to put a stop to it. Yesterday, we had the first
00:08:24.240
conviction in the in the January 6th worst attack on our on our republic ever. And the the the the person
00:08:36.060
that they sentenced was a grandmother. She was was pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor of parading
00:08:45.860
in the Capitol. And she got, I think, six months of community service and a five hundred dollar fine.
00:08:54.660
Yeah, it's ridiculous. First of all, the narrative around it is insane. They're going to do that. I
00:08:59.920
didn't see, you know, the FBI is posting a picture of someone who was taking a selfie. You know,
00:09:04.000
you know, I don't see the FBI doing anything about your 12 months of looting, rioting, arson,
00:09:10.620
murder, taking over buildings, because I guess it was woke, just like our military has gone full
00:09:15.320
woke now. So they're more concerned about your pronouns than they are about maybe China's nuclear
00:09:20.180
arsenal. That's what's going on. These people are entrenched in there. They could only care less
00:09:24.560
about one side. If you were within 2000 miles of the Capitol on January 6th and happen to be a
00:09:29.640
conservative, you know, there's a chance they're investigating you. If you burn down a building or
00:09:33.900
you took over a courthouse in Portland or Seattle, no problem. You get a slap on the wrist. Look at
00:09:38.640
New York, you know, people who were literally caught red handed, you know, breaking into building,
00:09:44.540
arson, vandalism, rioting, looting. They're just dropping the charges. No problem. Again,
00:09:51.180
what's going on is sick. When Joe Biden goes and says, hey, you're going to need nuclear weapons to
00:09:55.380
try to take over the government. I mean, I look at that as a threat to the American public when he
00:09:59.820
says something like that. If a conservative said something in an opposite situation,
00:10:04.900
they would be branded, you know, as heretics. They would be seditionists for saying something
00:10:11.140
like that. Joe Biden can say it. No problem. He's 100% right. The double standard in the hypocrisy
00:10:16.700
has gone awry. It's absolutely ridiculous. And again, it's just such a shame. And this is why,
00:10:21.980
again, I still believe you need Donald Trump, because I imagine this is where you're going,
00:10:25.360
because I don't know of enough Republicans who have the guts to say it, to have the guts to take
00:10:31.720
the slings and arrows that the media will say. It's totally nonsense, right? Let's not get ourselves.
00:10:36.400
I mean, what they say about all of those who are willing to fight is totally ridiculous.
00:10:40.540
Trump's just the one that's not going to stand down because they do it. He's the one that's not
00:10:44.220
just going to roll over because they say, oh, mean things about him based on total factual nonsense.
00:10:49.640
So, you know, that's why Donald Trump is so important. I hope that he has woken up the other
00:10:56.100
conservatives. I hope he has woken up those in the Republican Party to exactly what's going on.
00:11:01.300
Unfortunately, after 50 years of just rolling over to the left and kowtowing to him,
00:11:05.600
it's sort of ingrained in so many conservative leaders that we need to make sure that changes.
00:11:11.960
I don't think there are conservative leaders anymore. I mean, name them in Washington. Name
00:11:20.240
them. Yeah, you make a solid point, which backs up the point I was just making. You know, I think
00:11:27.900
you're starting to see it. But, you know, those people who are starting to do it and doing a decent
00:11:32.000
job, you know, they get shut down on social media. They don't forget when we're not. It's not like
00:11:35.980
we're in a fair fight. We're up against multi trillion dollar industries. You have big tech
00:11:41.260
doing whatever they can. I get I had, you know, 30 something million individual impressions on
00:11:45.740
Instagram last week. I lost followers like, you know, 250,000 likes a post. It's like, you know,
00:11:51.340
you get a couple one day and then they'll take it away over the next few days. I mean, what's going
00:11:55.300
on? You don't have to be a genius to see it. You could be a very average bad content leftist and
00:12:01.460
you grow like wildfire because they believe in what you're saying, even if you're not, you know,
00:12:05.820
not someone who's going to create viral content or even decent content. But because you're agreeing
00:12:10.500
with them, there's never censorship. They're not deplatformed. They're not demonetized. They're
00:12:14.160
not thrown off. It only goes one way when you're up against the giant of big tech, when you can't
00:12:20.820
search information and expect to get a fair and balanced sort of answer in search terms,
00:12:26.400
when you have the social media companies where so many people are communicating and getting
00:12:30.260
information, but they're cutting off the reach of those on our side, when you have a mainstream media
00:12:35.380
that's just, you know, just gone full commie. Uh, you know, we're not in a fair fight, man.
00:12:40.040
We're up against an incredible, uh, adversarial force in terms of getting just even fairness
00:12:45.840
out there. Uh, and again, that will be interpreted as though it's violence because words these days
00:12:50.940
are violence, at least words in one direction are violence, Glenn, not in both directions, just one
00:12:55.680
way. But when you're up against that, you need someone who can truly fight because it's not a fair
00:13:01.340
fight in the slightest. So I was, um, I'm really disappointed in people now that are really on
00:13:10.400
the same side. We just might have a difference of opinion on, you know, how we're approaching
00:13:15.960
things. Um, but we we've all got to come together. Can I ask you, what is your dad's relationship
00:13:21.940
with, uh, with, uh, DeSantis, governor DeSantis, who seems to be, uh, lining himself up for a 2024
00:13:30.740
run? I listen. I think the relationship is great. I think, you know, when DeSantis was down, we,
00:13:37.560
myself, my father, I mean, we came down and we did a lot to help make sure to get that win. And
00:13:41.900
you see, you know, those things are very important because you see what instilling, you know,
00:13:45.700
conservative governors has done. Look at the difference in the performance between the red
00:13:49.820
states and the blue states during the pandemic. Look at the difference in the recovery. Look at the
00:13:54.000
flight that you have from places like, Hey, I moved to Florida out of New York. So I'm going to pay an
00:13:59.480
insane amount of taxes to have cops that aren't allowed to do their jobs, to have crime going
00:14:04.300
through the roof, to have, you know, everyone that made so much of this thing, just fleeing in
00:14:08.720
droves. What do you think is going to happen? Their solution is not fix the problems that they
00:14:13.340
created. The solution is to tax people even further, creating more flight to places like Florida,
00:14:18.640
Texas, you know, and places that are reasonable. So, uh, you know, those relationships are good.
00:14:23.460
And that's why it's so critical and why my father fought so hard for these governorships,
00:14:27.040
because it's not just about the president. It's not just about your congressman or your
00:14:30.620
senator. I mean, we got to take this thing and it's not just about governors. We got to take
00:14:34.160
this down to local. Look at what's going on in some of these school boards and these local town
00:14:39.020
councils where they've been taken over by the woke morons. They want your kids learning critical
00:14:44.500
race theory, because while it's total nonsense, they get to feel good about it. It does nothing
00:14:48.900
other than probably create more animosity, create a division, all of the things that we're trying to
00:14:54.320
avoid. But, you know, we need people who are willing to get involved. We, if we band together
00:14:59.560
and do this, you know, they can't cancel all of us. When you have one guy out there taking all the
00:15:04.000
arrows and Trump still seems to be a guy taking all the hits because, you know, they're, they're
00:15:07.520
most afraid of Trump. So they'll do whatever they can to diminish him. And, uh, you know, they'll build
00:15:11.600
up those around them until those people become leaders. And then they'll take them out to be,
00:15:14.980
that's the game. We've watched this happen over and over. If they're not aware of that,
00:15:18.520
if we haven't figured that out yet, we're either morons or, you know, we, we, we need to do a lot
00:15:23.160
better job paying attention. So, you know, that's what's going on, but those relationships have been
00:15:27.140
great. And like I said, you know, my, my father went to bed for Ron DeSantis when, you know, again,
00:15:30.700
that was a very close race. And then Donald Trump got involved, really changed the dynamic. I know I
00:15:34.980
spent days with the governor, uh, you know, doing just that or personally friendly. He was very,
00:15:39.440
you know, good with us when he was a congressman. So that relationship is great.
00:15:43.660
I'm glad to hear that. I'm glad to hear that. Cause we, we need all of us standing together.
00:15:48.600
Uh, you know, as Franklin said, or we, we all need to hang together or we'll hang separately.
00:15:54.220
Donald Trump Jr. Please say hello to your father for us. Um, there's a ton of Americans that I know
00:16:01.140
I say this every time, but I, I just want to make sure that he, he knows millions of Americans are
00:16:07.640
behind him. Think about him all the day. And quite frankly, as I, as I, uh, uh, I think I told you the
00:16:14.420
other day traveling the country and having to fill up my gas tank. I think your father needs to run
00:16:20.300
spots on those little, the gas tank, uh, or gas, uh, uh, gas station TVs, because I can't believe
00:16:29.200
how much we're paying for gas. It's obscene. Thank you so much. I see it every day. I'm the
00:16:34.380
billionaire. And I, when I fill up my tank or when I go to the supermarket to grab some groceries and I
00:16:39.580
see the difference, it's like, if I'm noticing it, guess what? Everyone in America is noticing it and
00:16:44.140
they have to, and we can't just accept it. The policies that Joe Biden is pushing are creating
00:16:48.920
this. Trump's policies are what allowed us to thrive. You know, you may not like the tweeting.
00:16:53.580
It may be a little mean. I would venture to guess that most of it was pretty much spot on. Even if
00:16:58.540
it was mean, sometimes you need a disciplinarian parents, right? That's what happens. Uh, but we
00:17:03.680
can bring that back. It's very simple. We just can't sit there and be inactive.
00:17:08.820
Thank you very much, Donald Trump Jr. Uh, the author of the book, liberal privilege,
00:17:13.640
and you can follow him at don jr.com and, uh, also at Donald J. Trump Jr. Are you prepared for
00:17:22.120
the next prolonged food shortage in America? As we've recently seen, we are one hack away
00:17:28.520
from losing major supply lines on pretty much anything. It looks like 98% of Americans only
00:17:34.980
have a few days worth of food at home. That's why I strongly urge you to get a life-saving stockpile
00:17:40.720
of food from my Patriot Supply. They're the nation's pioneer in emergency preparedness and
00:17:46.020
self-reliance, and I've recommended them highly for years. I know the people at my Patriot Supply.
00:17:51.320
They're friends. Just go to preparewithglenn.com right now, and you'll save 25% off a four-week
00:17:58.340
emergency food kit from my Patriot Supply. Food lasts up to 25 years, a much-needed 2,000-calorie
00:18:04.880
delicious food every single time, and you can go to preparewithglenn.com right now. Save 25% off
00:18:12.780
their absolute bare minimum that you should have the four-week food kit. Don't wait before it's too
00:18:17.380
late. Act. Don't react. Go to preparewithglenn.com now. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck
00:18:27.240
program. Last night, I did a special on what I call the meat mafia, what is really going on,
00:18:42.440
and you see it with the price of meat at your supermarket, and they say it's because of the
00:18:47.860
pandemic. I am telling you, it is not. It is all about the Great Reset, and I'm going to make a case
00:18:53.720
here for you, but to get the full case, watch last night's show on the Blaze TV. Just go to
00:19:00.320
blazetv.com slash Glenn. I think it's up on YouTube. I'm not sure, but please, if you care about anything
00:19:09.720
that I'm going to say, you've got to spread this word. You've got to take this video and share it
00:19:15.800
with as many people as you possibly can. I'm not even going to get into the home prices because
00:19:21.900
this is connected, and I connected it last night, to what's happening to our farms, our farmland,
00:19:27.980
and our ranches. Right now, every expert will tell you we are in a house price bubble. The housing
00:19:37.540
bubble is way bigger, way bigger than it was in 2008. So if we know this, and we know that these
00:19:47.720
are all-time high prices, why would the very, very wealthy investors go in and buy at the top of the
00:19:57.540
market, which is happening with one of the largest, in fact, the largest money manager in the world,
00:20:04.160
BlackRock, who has a suspiciously high amount of its employees now all throughout the Biden
00:20:11.380
administration. These are the guys who are leading the way with the Paris Climate Accords and the ESG
00:20:19.340
banking stuff and all of this. They are leading the way. Well, they just, they're buying up whole
00:20:25.800
neighborhoods and paying up to 50% more than the asking price. Why are they doing that? That doesn't
00:20:33.920
sound like a smart investment. You buy low, not high. Well, I explain, I think, why they are doing
00:20:41.280
this in last night's broadcast. But I just want to focus here on one thing, and that is what's
00:20:48.560
happening to the price of meat and what's really going on. And you won't get this anywhere else.
00:20:54.540
And I'm telling you, it's right. Let's start at the beginning. Michelle Obama on the campaign trail,
00:21:01.020
2008. She says this. And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices. We're going to have
00:21:07.440
to change our conversation. We're going to have to change our traditions, our history. We're going
00:21:12.780
to have to move into a different place. Then Barack Obama, this is what's happening right now. Barack
00:21:19.780
Obama says at the end of his campaign in 08, he says, we're going to fundamentally transform.
00:21:26.480
Within five days, fundamental transformation. Well, we thought it was happening, and we worried that
00:21:35.940
it might continue after him. However, what we didn't realize is that Joe Biden is nothing more
00:21:43.920
than a shadow puppet of Barack Obama. Here he is two weeks ago saying this himself.
00:21:50.060
What we're seeing now is Joe Biden and the administration are essentially finishing the
00:21:57.020
job. And I think it'll be an interesting test. Okay. So listen to what he's saying. There's 90%.
00:22:03.940
He said 90% of the people in his administration were in my administration. And so he is finishing
00:22:10.220
the job. That's really important to understand, especially when it comes to meat. Now, listen to this.
00:22:16.540
There are only four real companies that process our beef. All the small guys have been purchased and
00:22:25.960
shoved out of business. And the four left, I call them the meat mafia. And they say the price of beef
00:22:34.460
is rising due to the pandemic. Well, is that true? If so, you would see the divergence in prices.
00:22:44.160
It should have begun last year. Let me show you a chart here that shows that, oh, wait,
00:22:53.300
it didn't happen. It didn't happen in the last year. This is over a 10-year period. It didn't begin
00:23:02.200
in 2020. This has been going on since the end of 2014 and the beginning of 2015. Now, here's why this
00:23:10.400
is important. You see the price of beef going through the roof and the price of cattle going
00:23:16.380
down. This has never happened before in history. Why is it happening now? And why did it start
00:23:24.720
around 2015? Well, they have all kinds of excuses. But let me tell you the truth. In 2015-2014,
00:23:32.600
this is when Obama was in overdrive calling climate change a weapon of mass destruction.
00:23:39.460
John Kerry was all over the globe. It all culminated with him and the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement.
00:23:48.220
Now, you might think that that's about global warming, but it's not. This is why they went crazy.
00:23:54.340
That thing does nothing, we thought. But as I showed you in March, the Paris Agreement included a lot of
00:24:01.440
things all of us completely missed that is so critical to understanding what's happening in
00:24:07.260
America. Article 2.1c of the Paris Climate Accord says this, the Paris Agreement mandates country
00:24:16.040
parties to make financial flows consistent with a pathway towards low greenhouse gas emissions
00:24:24.340
and climate resilient development. This was all about the banking system. This pushed both the World Bank
00:24:32.680
and the UN to create a framework for banks and financial institutions to begin to pressure corporations
00:24:40.700
to go woke and to pursue green alternatives. Now, is it a coincidence that all of this was going on
00:24:48.920
while a historic divergence in cattle and beef prices began? Never happened in history before.
00:25:03.800
How can I make this charge? Well, all you have to do is go to the websites of the big four meat processors.
00:25:12.700
Tyson has added an environment, social and governance or ESG section to their financials.
00:25:20.540
Cargill has done the same thing. Likewise, JBS and national beef. Those are the four countries
00:25:28.120
companies, and they're all talking about environmental responsibility. When you hear real environmentalists
00:25:35.600
in this talk, what do they say the number one leading cause of global warming is? And if you don't address
00:25:43.420
this, nothing else matters. Cow farts. They're saying the methane produced by cattle. You and I both know this.
00:25:56.060
The farming industry, they say, is responsible for global warming. If we can't get the cattle farmers under control,
00:26:05.600
then we don't make a dent. Okay. I want you to understand the none of this actually has anything
00:26:15.220
to do with the environment. It has everything to do with money and control, but they're using global
00:26:22.000
warming as the way, the vehicle to get control and money. So these four companies all of a sudden
00:26:30.900
become very ESG centered, environmentally centered. Well, how do you do that and process beef? Well,
00:26:40.640
as it turns out, three, well, let me start here. Two out of the four companies, the meat mafia,
00:26:48.640
one is owned by Brazil. The other is a wholly owned subsidiary of China.
00:26:55.240
All four of these are processing about 90% of our meat. Three of the big four have gone all in on lab
00:27:09.660
cultured fake meat. Lab growing meat is pulling in millions of dollars of investment now. About one
00:27:18.620
year after cattle prices began going down and beef prices started going up, Tyson Foods announced a
00:27:25.300
massive campaign, 150 million to fund meatless food alternatives. Tyson did this as in one of the big
00:27:33.060
four meat processors. But this is something now they're all doing. Cargill announced last year they
00:27:40.300
were stepping up their investment in fake meat. They poured money into labs like Memphis meats,
00:27:45.140
Elf Farms, also $75 million to purists. JBS, the world's largest meat supplier, has also announced
00:27:55.280
their intention of expanding their role in lab cultured meat. JBS CEO told Bloomberg, and I quote,
00:28:02.480
this is the CEO of the meat processing plant. Quote, meat from animals will be a pricey luxury in the
00:28:12.600
future. And people will have to turn to vegetable derived alternatives, which will be cheaper.
00:28:20.140
Why will it be cheaper? It's not the price of the cattle. The price of beef is going up because of
00:28:27.880
JBS and the four big meat processors. They're clearly on board with fake meat. By the way,
00:28:36.580
they're one of many woke corporations that are pledging to go net zero by 2040. How can you go
00:28:44.600
net zero if you are are part of the processing of the animal that is the biggest problem with global
00:28:53.660
global warming? Answer, you can't. Well, they just invested, JBS did, a billion dollars into the green
00:29:02.340
agenda. One billion dollars. Now, something tells me that ranchers aren't going to see a dime of that
00:29:07.700
money. These companies know exactly what they're doing. They're lining up now for the mother of all
00:29:13.840
paychecks. While the government pushes incentives for companies to fall in line with the Great Reset,
00:29:19.960
the corporations are gearing up now to corner the market. Why else would Bill Gates be buying up all
00:29:25.980
the farmland when he says things like this? I do think all rich countries that would be us should
00:29:33.140
move to 100 percent, 100 percent synthetic beef. You can get used to the taste difference. And the
00:29:40.440
claim is they're going to make it even taste better over time. Eventually, that green premium
00:29:45.100
is modest enough that you can sort of change the behavior of people or use regulation to totally shift
00:29:52.500
the demand. Hmm. So wait, what does that mean? Well, let me play a bioethicist who likes to eat meat.
00:30:03.200
Let me give you in a conversation among bioethicists who are trying to figure out what do we do about
00:30:12.940
meat? I want you to listen to what he said. Listen carefully. So I'll give two examples. So one is that
00:30:20.020
people eat too much meat, right? And if they were to cut down on their consumption on meat,
00:30:25.420
then it would actually really help the planet. But people are not willing to give up meat. Yeah,
00:30:31.600
you know, some people will be willing to, but other people, they may be willing to, but they sort of,
00:30:36.340
they have a weakness of will. They say, wow, this steak is just too juicy. I can't do it. I'm one of
00:30:40.780
those, by the way. So, you know, but so here's a thought, right? So it turns out that we know a lot
00:30:45.840
about, so there, we have these intolerance to, uh, so I, for example, I have milk intolerance,
00:30:51.840
um, uh, and there's some people are intolerant to crayfish. So possibly we can use human engineering
00:30:57.940
to make it the case that we're intolerant to certain kinds of meat. So certain kinds of bovine,
00:31:02.720
uh, bovine proteins. And there's actually analogs of this in life. There's this thing called the long
00:31:07.360
star tick, where if it bites you, you will become allergic to meat. Uh, I can sort of describe the
00:31:12.900
mechanism. So that's something that we can do through human engineering. We can kind of, uh,
00:31:17.220
possibly address really big world problems through human engineering.
00:31:22.720
Human engineering now to stop us from eating beef. By the way, one last thing you should know about
00:31:30.020
the Biden BLM nominee. That's not black lives matter. That is the Bureau of land management. This
00:31:36.940
is where most of our beef grazes. You want grass fed beef? That's it's fed on government land, BLM land.
00:31:46.240
Um, it's been that way forever. Ranchers cannot survive without BLM land. So what, why am I bringing
00:31:54.060
this up? Because the new nominee that Biden has picked to run the BLM, uh, believes that we should
00:32:02.520
have one or two children only, uh, because it's, it's killing the earth. So she's anti-children one to
00:32:12.240
two children only. But here's the more important thing. She says, uh, real food, meaning beef
00:32:20.960
kills our public land. She said public lands all over the West should look as healthy as the land,
00:32:28.380
uh, shown in this picture on the right, but more often our public lands look like the land on the
00:32:33.940
left because cows have pummeled it. So the woman who is going to be in charge of the grazing of our
00:32:43.400
cattle and the future of farming and the future of, of ranchers is against cattle grazing on the land.
00:32:55.220
She's going to be in charge of, they are putting meat off the table. I'm telling you now, if you
00:33:05.040
don't get involved locally, if you don't call your governor, if you don't call your state rep, if you
00:33:12.600
don't start going to a farmer's market, if you don't support local processing, you're never going to
00:33:19.060
have meat again. And I guarantee you that it will become a very pricey commodity. Here's what I
00:33:25.740
want you to do. I want you to go to USA beef.org. They will put you directly in contact with local
00:33:32.460
beef producers. You deal directly with local ranchers, local businesses, local banks, local
00:33:38.200
farmers. That's the way to attack this right now. Also alert your governor and your state
00:33:45.940
representatives. It go to first thing, USA beef.org. Do it now. The best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:33:59.080
This critical race theory is getting out of hand. And now because they are denying it, they're denying
00:34:07.040
that it is playing any role in our schools at all. And it is going to get worse and worse. Now in Loudoun
00:34:15.820
County, I think this is perhaps one of the worst examples in the country. If it's not, I, oh boy, I'd
00:34:24.780
hate to hear what is. They, two days ago, they had a public meeting, a hearing on transgendered bathrooms,
00:34:33.600
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But a lot of people showed up to talk and the school board didn't
00:34:40.860
seem to be, uh, uh, happy about the comments from many of the people there. Um, and I, I want to bring
00:34:50.880
in somebody who was actually in this meeting. Uh, his name is Ian Pryor. He's the executive director for
00:34:58.200
fight for schools, senior counsel of unsilenced majority. Uh, and he was there at the meeting
00:35:05.040
two days ago, Ian, how are you? How are you doing, Glenn? Thanks for having me. You bet. Um, I want
00:35:12.020
to give you a, uh, recap of this as written by Fox news. So it should be friendly coming from Fox news.
00:35:18.460
The first half dozen speakers were in support of policy proposal 840, which is what transgendered
00:35:25.300
bathrooms and. Yeah. So transgendered bathrooms, um, you know, requiring teachers and students to
00:35:32.220
refer to other students by their chosen pronouns and then requiring, um, schools to allow, you know,
00:35:38.100
biological males to play in female sports. Hmm. Okay. But fireworks erupted when the seventh who
00:35:44.280
identified herself as a mother of a transgender loud and student was booed after saying hate was
00:35:50.160
dripping from the followers of Jesus in this room. She was swiping at Christian parents. Um,
00:35:57.080
and is that what happened? Yeah, that is what happened. And actually Glenn, you know, I,
00:36:02.640
I led a team of, of volunteers, you know, we're looking to recall this school board. So I led a
00:36:08.400
team of volunteers out to Leesburg, Virginia to get signatures to one of these school board members
00:36:13.200
actually, while the meeting was going on. So we were watching it on our phones, um, as we were going
00:36:18.420
door to door throughout the neighborhoods and, and, you know, we knocked on one person's door,
00:36:21.960
they opened it, they were signing the petition and, and we were watching it literally at the time
00:36:26.820
that this person was signing the petition to recall two of the school board members. It was,
00:36:31.060
it was just an incredible, incredible event, but I mean, just insane. And you could tell that that was
00:36:36.140
done really to, to rile the crowd up, um, and to get them angry because, you know, most parents,
00:36:41.080
when they go there, they, they direct their, their comments to the school board. They don't direct their
00:36:45.720
comments to other people in the audience and their religious beliefs. And that was just
00:36:49.240
uncalled for and absurd. So they called a, they called a five minute recess. Then the board voted
00:36:58.040
that if there's any more eruptions, that they're going to clear it. And this meeting will be over,
00:37:03.580
but a ton of people, uh, showed up. Now, the way this story is written and others are written
00:37:10.840
is that they did everything they could to make sure that everyone was heard, but it was these
00:37:16.320
people who are against critical race theory. They just caused chaos. Tell me what really happened.
00:37:23.400
Yeah. So, so what, you know, this actually started about two weeks before at the last school board
00:37:28.220
meeting where, you know, for the first time in really a year and a half, you had parents that
00:37:33.140
were allowed in the, in the meeting room, other than, you know, usually they would have one person
00:37:36.980
speaking at the podium, but everyone is allowed to sit in the audience and somebody cheered for one
00:37:42.040
of the speakers and they, they shut it down for five minutes. So we kind of knew that they were,
00:37:46.760
they may be planning to shut it down when they started to hear things that they didn't like. So
00:37:50.620
they really packed the beginning of the speaker lineup with, um, folks that were for the school
00:37:56.920
boards policies for the transgender policy, but they kind of ran out of gas around, you know,
00:38:01.600
17 or 18 speakers in. And that's when all the rest of the parents started speaking. So you
00:38:06.900
had, you know, out of the next 30 or 40, it was probably an 85 to 15 ratio. And then we had a
00:38:12.620
former state Senator by the name of Dick black that just gave a passionate speech and, you know,
00:38:17.940
everybody applauded and that's pretty much what happened. And they shut it down because of applause.
00:38:22.760
And, you know, my contention is applauding is a form of expression and you are expressing support
00:38:27.660
of the speaker. That's the first amendment, right? When you shut down that meeting, because of that,
00:38:31.540
you just violated the first amendment rights of everybody in that room.
00:38:34.400
Well, you, you clearly have, um, now the, are they going to have more public hearings? Because
00:38:41.740
one of the things is revolves around a teacher that said, look, I, I, I, it is, it is immoral and wrong
00:38:50.240
to call a little boy, a girl. If that's what he wants to be called, I, I, I won't do it. And I think
00:38:57.660
it's also wrong to have bathrooms where anybody can go into any bathroom. He said, that's also wrong.
00:39:03.880
And he was, uh, I don't think he was fired. He was suspended for saying that, right?
00:39:11.040
That's right. You know, he went there on his own time as a resident of Loudoun County about, I think,
00:39:15.940
a month ago, um, to speak his concerns, the, the public comment, they requested public comment on the policy.
00:39:22.040
He gave public comment. He didn't say anything inappropriate. He was put on administrative leave.
00:39:26.600
He took it to the certain court in Leesburg. He won a resounding victory. And now the school board
00:39:32.340
of the school system is appealing that victory. And, you know, could you pick a better case name
00:39:37.300
for somebody, um, trying to exercise their religious rights than Loudoun County public schools
00:39:42.700
versus cross. That is the case name of the Virginia Supreme court case.
00:39:47.460
So what happened to this County used to be pretty reliably red. Um, I mean, it was only like eight
00:39:57.240
points in favor of the, uh, Republicans, but that's quite a large spread. Then I think Loudoun County
00:40:04.900
went what? 25 points for Biden this time. How, how, how is this County so far off track so quickly?
00:40:15.380
Well, I think what you're seeing is, is the growth of the bureaucracy in Washington. And so you have,
00:40:21.120
you know, Fairfax, Arlington, Alexandria counties have traditionally been blue, but as these things
00:40:27.500
have grown, as these, um, these counties have grown, people have started to move out to Loudoun County
00:40:32.900
where they could get more space. And Loudoun County was renowned for its public school system. I mean,
00:40:37.020
that's, that's why I came out here in 2018, but unfortunately all these people coming in from
00:40:41.020
Fairfax and Arlington brought their politics with them as we see so often in this country.
00:40:45.380
And that I think is what is, what has resulted in the, the dramatic shift, um, on the, to the, to the blue side.
00:40:53.440
So the superintendent, um, Scott Ziegler, uh, as, uh, said that this is, um, this is nothing more than a dog
00:41:05.660
whistle politics, that all of this stuff about CRT is nonsense and people are being ginned up, uh, by using dog
00:41:14.020
whistles. Yeah. That, you know, we find that amusing, you know, somebody who, and that's part
00:41:20.340
of the problem is that they just will not admit that critical race theory informs their teacher
00:41:25.920
trainings and their, you know, instruction of students. In fact, we have an email from the last
00:41:31.100
superintendent that says exactly what I just said. And this, this is a superintendent that left, you know,
00:41:35.880
a couple of months ago. So, you know, what's changed and nothing's changed. They've had a,
00:41:39.900
a consultant on, on board for three years called the equity collaborative out of California. That's
00:41:45.600
basically running their teacher trainings that set up their whole quote equity program. And this equity
00:41:50.840
collaborative, their entire module is based on oppression analysis and critical race theory. It's
00:41:56.980
all over their documents. You know, within the school itself, we've seen dozens of documents,
00:42:02.020
teacher trainings where they talk about, you know, being the oppressor or being the oppressed,
00:42:06.120
you know, one document, which was particularly striking, even said, if you are a light skinned
00:42:12.460
person of color, you are an oppressor vis-a-vis a dark skinned person of color. That's how far down
00:42:19.860
they are going to divide people, not just on race, but actually on shade of skin color.
00:42:25.360
I mean, that's, you know, one drop of one drop of Jewish blood makes you a Jew in, in, in Germany
00:42:35.060
in the 1930s. I mean, it, it is, it's getting scary on what these people are teaching and the media is
00:42:42.340
covering for, for them. How do you respond to the media who says, and in fact, our joint chief's
00:42:48.840
chairman yesterday in testimony in Congress said, this is just an obscure teaching that happened in
00:42:56.840
Harvard and it's not happening in our schools. How do you respond to those people who are carrying
00:43:02.900
that water? I would say, you know, documentation, documentation, documentation, and we parents have
00:43:09.740
done our homework and, you know, it's easy for the, the legacy media to swoop in and say, you know,
00:43:15.260
what is and isn't going on in our schools, but we're the ones that see what happens when,
00:43:19.740
you know, we walk by our kids Chromebooks and see what they're learning. We're the ones that talk to
00:43:24.060
our kids who are students there. You know, the, the superintendent in one of his interviews said,
00:43:28.440
you know, I talked to students and, and this is what they're telling me. It's like, well, you know
00:43:32.260
what? We talk to students every day because there are kids and there are hundreds, thousands of parents
00:43:37.980
now that are rallying to this cause to recall the school board. And they are seeing the same exact
00:43:43.160
thing. So the fact of the matter is that the school board, the superintendent are really just
00:43:48.140
gaslighting the community here. They're attacking parents saying that parents are spreading
00:43:52.900
misinformation when in fact, it's the parents who have done the homework and the school system has
00:43:57.660
absolutely no response whatsoever. That's credible. So when, when they come out to attack you,
00:44:05.700
they say, well, you used to be, you were somebody who was involved in politics and this is
00:44:11.920
proof positive that you can't, you can't listen to him. He's clearly nothing but a Republican
00:44:20.480
operative. How do you respond? Yeah. You know, I love, I love that attack line. It's, it's,
00:44:25.420
I worked in for Republican organizations and the justice department for, you know, six to eight
00:44:31.160
years, give or take, I've been a parent for eight years and I'm going to be a parent for the rest of my
00:44:36.260
life. That is where my priority lies. Second of all, I wasn't planning on getting involved in
00:44:41.900
this fight until you had a private Facebook group that had six school board members that planned a
00:44:47.520
campaign to target parents with illegal activities. And I found myself on that list. So you can be
00:44:53.000
sure that I'm not going to sit there and take it lightly. And you know, really what this happened,
00:44:57.000
what happened was it was maybe six to eight of us parents that really were just got on somebody's
00:45:02.520
back porch and said, all right, this is enough. This school board has ignored and mocked parents
00:45:07.400
that were trying to get schools reopened. Now they're taking part in the secret Facebook groups
00:45:11.820
where parents are being attacked, doxed, targeted. It's time for them to go. And, you know, sure. I,
00:45:17.080
I utilize the skills that I've learned through working in politics and as a lawyer over the years,
00:45:22.180
um, that's to be expected, but this is truly, you know, I don't even know if we can call it a
00:45:27.000
grassroots campaign. It's probably a back deck campaign because that's really where it started.
00:45:31.080
Um, and how do you think it's going to end? Well, you know, I think that unfortunately this
00:45:39.060
school board is not up for reelection until 2023. We've already seen a handful of lawsuits. I would
00:45:45.640
expect there would be several more. Um, we're trying to recall six school board members. We've
00:45:51.120
made amazing progress in six weeks. In fact, it's gone faster than, than I even planned for. Um,
00:45:56.960
we're at close to 90% of required signatures for, for one of those school board members. And
00:46:02.320
ultimately, you know, once, once we get those signatures, then unlike in California, we have
00:46:07.620
to take it to court and the court will decide if these, these school board members, uh, you know,
00:46:12.940
abused their office, neglected their duty or incompetent in the performance of their office.
00:46:17.380
So this is going to end up in court sooner or later, um, on multiple levels, recall, you know,
00:46:22.780
first amendment issues, all the things that are swirling out there. So I I'm just not sure
00:46:26.900
how this board is going to be able to credibly function in a representative fashion for this
00:46:31.020
community going forward. Uh, I can't thank you enough for, for standing up locally in, in your,
00:46:38.680
in your own community. This is the only chance we have of, of winning and making sure that our
00:46:45.580
constitution and our bill of rights apply to every single American is, uh, do what you're doing and
00:46:52.000
take it through the court, be calm and collected, uh, use wisdom and knowledge, uh, and, uh, and let
00:46:59.940
the system grind it out. Uh, Ian, thank you so much. Thank you very much.
