Summary
Part 2 of our four part series on America's God. Today on America s God, we cover the FBI's latest announcement about white supremacists being the biggest threat to the U.S. and why it may be because we are not all white enough.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
We started the show with this FBI announcement that just happened last Friday about white
00:00:06.880
supremacists being the biggest threat to the nation, completely unrelated to the fact that
00:00:14.000
the FBI had questioned 16 times the guy who went into the subways and shot a bunch of
00:00:27.300
And, uh, well, they probably didn't hold him because, uh, he wasn't white and he was
00:00:33.360
somebody who was a white, uh, sorry, a black supremacist.
00:00:36.620
So it didn't fit into their, uh, into their narrative.
00:00:42.540
We had Matt Kibbe talking about what's happening in Shanghai.
00:00:50.740
And it's, it, as he says, it's not, you know, some village with a hut.
00:00:55.800
Uh, and it, it's terrifying what is happening there.
00:01:00.320
Also the second episode in the, uh, search for America's God today.
00:01:06.960
Uh, I think you're one step closer to understanding what is wrong with our neighbors and our friends
00:01:21.700
Part two of our four part series today on America's God.
00:01:28.080
So last Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas declared,
00:01:59.140
Well, you know, when you're watching TV and somebody who is as white as I am, and then,
00:02:04.640
uh, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas declared white supremacist and domestic violence
00:02:13.200
extremism to be the most prominent threat currently facing our country.
00:02:17.320
The timing couldn't have been more perfect because just a few hours later, a jury in Grand Rapids,
00:02:25.280
Michigan exposed the justice department's largest alleged domestic terrorism case in the last
00:02:33.320
18 months as a failed FBI entrapment scheme designed to smear conservatives as white supremacists
00:02:45.140
This article is from the, um, uh, the federalist, I think.
00:02:51.080
Yes, the federalist, uh, by refusing to convict four men accused of plotting to kidnap and kill
00:02:57.620
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer before election day, the Grand Rapids jury seemed to side with the
00:03:03.500
defense attorneys who argued their clients were not domestic terrorists, but entrapped by undercover FBI
00:03:09.420
agents and at least a dozen informants who planned and funded the kidnapping operation.
00:03:15.140
The key to the government's plan was to turn general discontent with Governor Whitmer's COVID-19
00:03:21.120
restrictions into a crime that could be prosecuted.
00:03:24.760
Defense lawyers wrote the government picked what it knew would be a sensational charge conspiracy to
00:03:32.860
And when the government was faced with evidence showing that the defendants had no interest in
00:03:36.880
the kidnapping plot, it refused to accept failure and continued to push its plan.
00:03:42.340
Now, what's interesting about this is the guy who was overseeing this particular operation
00:03:49.720
He was transferred to Washington DC, given a promotion, and he's the guy overseeing the January
00:03:59.160
So, the FBI is very, very, very busy because they know white supremacists.
00:04:17.740
And the first sign, that's why I'm wearing pink contacts right now.
00:04:23.220
Oh, they burn a, it's not a, it's like a hexagon in your front yard.
00:04:33.680
They're, I don't know what the hexagon has to do, but it's not a cross.
00:04:43.740
Anyway, so the FBI is looking for these crazy white, white, white, white, white, really white,
00:04:55.560
And that may be why they missed Frank R. James.
00:05:06.800
He's, quote, a troubled man who railed against Mayor Adams and made bizarre threatening rants
00:05:27.280
Like, did you, because this is, I heard this a lot from a lot of sources yesterday.
00:05:33.340
That he was making bizarre, angry, violent, racist.
00:05:40.520
And, you know, before they released the picture, man, they seem to make that broad enough
00:05:44.960
to, it's almost as if they wanted you to think of a particular type of person, perhaps an
00:05:55.080
My apology to the one or two albinos that are not violent extremists.
00:06:04.740
They're not setting their best across the border.
00:06:08.440
But it was amazing that that was the way it was.
00:06:10.900
They didn't say it was anti-white racism, probably because they've spent the last 10 years telling
00:06:23.340
So how would this guy have racist rants in the first place?
00:06:27.180
So he said things like, it's just a matter of time before these black MFers decide, hey,
00:06:41.520
It's just a matter of time before those white MFers decide, hey, listen, enough is enough.
00:06:47.440
These N-words got to go on YouTube as of yesterday.
00:06:58.580
Ultimately, at the end of the day, they kill and commit genocide against one another.
00:07:03.740
What do you think they're going to do to your black ass?
00:07:12.120
You're going to die because unlike Zelensky in Ukraine, nobody has your back.
00:07:18.500
The whole world is against you and you're against effing yourself.
00:07:31.600
Beside to pick cotton or chop sugar cane or tobacco.
00:07:39.600
But my some of my opinions on the lab leak for covid banned.
00:08:04.360
But isn't that what the press and social media have been telling us that us crazy white conservatives are doing to the crazy people in our audience?
00:08:21.360
It only takes one crazy person that happens to be listening.
00:08:33.220
Why should an N-word be alive on this planet beside to pick cotton or chop sugar cane or tobacco?
00:08:44.020
Because that's almost the progressive bumper sticker.
00:08:53.960
It's just telling a large portion of the country they will never be successful unless, of course, their white savior, Democratic politician steps in to bail them out of their terrible, terrible times with these evil conservatives.
00:09:08.900
I cannot say this to you and make you this promise like I could have 10 years ago.
00:09:19.820
10 years ago, I would say to you, you can do anything.
00:09:32.060
And I speak, I speak from experience as a guy who was the first to go to college and couldn't afford it in my 30s more than one semester.
00:09:45.680
There's nobody in my family that was college educated.
00:09:56.700
The system, I came into talk radio making fun, correct me if I'm wrong, making fun of talk radio.
00:10:06.160
I went in to television making fun of television, breaking all of the rules, doing it my way, not the way everybody else.
00:10:19.020
Then, when they didn't accept, we built a network, the first network.
00:10:28.440
HBO wasn't even on yet on the Internet with live streaming.
00:10:52.720
I have a belief in common decency and common goodness.
00:10:57.780
I have a belief in the system that good guys don't always win.
00:11:25.180
But everybody thinks that their problem is the biggest problem.
00:11:28.720
You go into somebody's office and you're like, hey, I've got a real problem.
00:11:39.100
Let me sit down in your office and tell you some problems.
00:11:53.860
Now, everybody's got a problem and they have to wear it on their sleeve.
00:11:59.220
Now, the system is so corrupt that unless you have money, unless you have the right point of view, unless you vote the right way, I don't know if you can make it.
00:12:19.980
I have always been a champion of the underdog in no other country than this one.
00:12:32.780
But I will tell you, we're still out blazing trails.
00:12:49.720
If you adhere to a universal moral code, if you adhere to do unto others, love thy neighbor.
00:13:02.700
If you can accept Glenn Beck's top ten rules for life, formerly called the Ten Commandments, you're going to be all right.
00:13:18.900
Because you'll be on the side of God, the universal truth maker.
00:13:25.920
And as long as you remain on his side, everything's going to work out.
00:13:39.200
You know, when I started radio, this is not what I planned.
00:13:48.060
There are no mistakes and no waste in God's universe.
00:13:55.080
It's amazing how much you can screw up your life.
00:13:58.060
And if you just put it on the right track and stay with Glenn Beck's ten really good safety tips, formerly known as the Ten Commandments.
00:14:08.040
It's amazing how all of that wasted time, all of that wasted energy, how all of those mistakes will be used, not by you, but by him somehow or another to put you right where you're supposed to be with all of the skills that you needed.
00:14:30.080
Don't listen to anybody who says you can't do it.
00:14:33.180
Don't listen to anybody who is saying the whole world's against you.
00:14:41.480
My goal is to be like, what was the priest's name that was down in the basement of the concentration camps, remember?
00:14:49.940
And they just, the guy was so positive all the time.
00:14:52.360
They're like, okay, we got to just starve him to death.
00:14:55.800
And they put him in a basement and he got all of the other prisoners to start singing hymns.
00:15:02.720
And now they really wanted to kill him because he was starving to death.
00:15:08.640
He was in so much pain and yet he was still singing.
00:15:15.820
Minus the starving in the basement of the concentration camp.
00:15:35.040
There's nothing more important than learning that.
00:15:38.080
I am surrounded by a new family of people who have their life back because of Relief Factor.
00:15:46.720
I was in pain and got to the point to where I just couldn't do it anymore.
00:15:52.480
Did anybody else feel like, you know, I just, I can't get up another day?
00:15:58.380
We have our life back because of Relief Factor.
00:16:04.260
It's a group of real people with real results that had real pain.
00:16:48.900
Carol Roth, the author of The War on Small Business.
00:16:52.880
She calls herself a recovering investment banker.
00:16:56.340
She is somebody who is trying to look out for the little guy and can explain what's happening
00:17:02.780
to the little guy in normal terms, which is my biggest frustration when you watch anybody
00:17:16.020
But I don't think we're going to save these 16 cents on our 4th of July barbecue this year.
00:17:26.080
That's, believe me, I think that's going to be trending on Twitter on July 4th on how much
00:17:38.620
In 1980, the highest inflation rate was 14.6% and we had 20% mortgage rates.
00:17:52.120
2022, according to ShadowStats, which is calculating the way we calculated inflation in 1980, our inflation
00:18:04.300
And our mortgage, I mean, our lending rates are now 0.5% to the banks.
00:18:16.700
Yeah, it seems like a little bit of a mismatch of policy.
00:18:23.000
But, you know, this is why people are so angry with the Federal Reserve.
00:18:27.120
They have been on the forefront of causing this issue by artificially suppressing interest
00:18:34.260
rates and printing trillions of dollars that have, in part, caused this inflation.
00:18:40.540
And then, you know, they were buying securities, putting them on their balance sheet, part of
00:18:44.980
what suppresses interest rates, up until last month.
00:18:48.100
Then, all of a sudden, they got the wake-up call going, oh, boy, you know, inflation's pretty
00:18:52.440
high, even though it's been trending at, you know, incredible levels for well over a year.
00:18:58.400
And, you know, now all of a sudden, oh, we have to do something and they're still not doing
00:19:03.860
But the rub on all of this is it's very hard for them to do anything without putting us
00:19:09.640
So they are caught between a rock and a hard place.
00:19:12.400
Yeah, kind of, oh, gee, I remember saying this, kind of at a place where there are no good
00:19:18.820
Um, all right, so let's go back to the stats of 8.5%.
00:19:24.120
This is so misleading because they'll say it's the highest in 40 years, meaning it was
00:19:34.420
I mean, it's not, it was not worse in the 1970s and 80s.
00:19:39.020
It's worse now by far because we're at the beginning of this.
00:19:43.040
Can you explain shadow stats and what you understand?
00:19:46.600
Is this credible to be able to say, let me look and calculate it the way we used to?
00:19:57.300
I have not been able to go through, um, it would take, you know, lots of, of modeling
00:20:01.540
power, um, to be able to go back and replicate it.
00:20:04.620
But basically what they've done is they said, you know, there have been a lot of shifts here,
00:20:09.020
both in the eighties and the nineties in terms of the way that the government calculates
00:20:13.640
inflation, and this should be of no surprise to anyone.
00:20:16.860
They want to keep the headline inflation number down.
00:20:20.200
Also, also though, isn't social security based increases based on CPI?
00:20:26.640
You want to just read my, this is exactly where I was going with it.
00:20:33.580
So the reason why they want to keep the headline number down is because it allows them to print
00:20:40.340
But like you said, there are a lot of things that, um, you know, the numbers for inflation
00:20:45.560
feed into like, like you said, social security and other programs that have cost of living
00:20:52.000
So this is another way for the government to continue to cheat.
00:20:56.000
So what shadow stats has done is they said, well, let's go back to, you know, the best approximation
00:21:00.660
we can make of what happened before the nineties changes before the eighties changes and let's
00:21:06.860
And if they looked at the rate, it's about double of what is being reported.
00:21:11.140
And you can just look at some of the key categories, things like rent and hotels and whatnot on
00:21:17.040
what they are reporting and go, yeah, you know, that makes sense.
00:21:22.860
We can, you know, try to shelter and feed our families and go get gas.
00:21:26.680
You understand that it's not just 8.5% inflation.
00:21:30.500
So this is trying to give you that apples to apples comparison.
00:21:33.920
And, you know, by my estimation, it seems like it's in the ballpark.
00:21:38.640
Which is 17.1 inflation rate this month in 1980.
00:21:53.600
Um, today we got a number there, there are different measures of inflation.
00:21:57.660
The CPI is sort of a consumer survey, one that's used.
00:22:02.380
Um, today we got something called the producer price index, which is a measure of wholesale
00:22:09.000
Is this, is this the, this shows us what may be coming our way because these are the raw
00:22:15.280
materials that it takes to make things that we eventually buy?
00:22:19.220
Yes, this is the inflation and the inputs to the goods and services.
00:22:24.720
And it is a lagging indicator because you obviously have to have that inflation number, know what
00:22:30.300
that is, but they haven't gone into that finished price that has gone to the consumer that what
00:22:37.240
So this ends up meaning that what we're seeing today is going to impact what we're seeing
00:22:43.020
Now, obviously the gas prices are moving around.
00:22:46.760
Um, so it's going to be different headline versus looking at what's called core inflation,
00:22:53.600
Um, but given the fact that at the producer level today, we got a number that is the highest
00:22:59.800
level on record, Glenn, the highest level, 11.2% at the wholesale level, that's 11.2% increase,
00:23:09.620
which again is probably understated that is going to flow through goods and services that
00:23:17.420
Did they ever calculate, they changed this calculation ever?
00:23:20.060
Of course, of course they changed the whole name.
00:23:21.980
They changed the whole name of the index, right?
00:23:24.100
You know, they said, well, we're not going to do it this way anymore.
00:23:26.460
We're going to, we're going to have a different way to do, we're going to have a new name.
00:23:30.400
But this is the, but this is the, this is the highest number, even with all of the changes,
00:23:40.360
So based on this current index, this is the highest number ever recorded.
00:23:51.140
So why is this a, I would think this is a leading indicator because if the prices to produce things
00:23:58.500
are more expensive today at 11% more expensive, that means that it's showing me that when
00:24:06.340
it finally gets a finished product and it's at, you're going to be paying at least 11%
00:24:13.540
We're, we're, we're saying sort of the same thing in a different way.
00:24:16.300
What I'm saying is that it lags, uh, what, what shows up in the CPI inflation number.
00:24:21.320
So you, you, you have not seen it yet because it hasn't hit it yet.
00:24:24.660
So we're both saying the same thing and just that with just slightly different, uh, words
00:24:29.020
So, uh, what, what, what, uh, what, what, what, what, what, what can be done here?
00:24:39.660
Obviously a lot of people are looking to the federal reserve to get us, you know, out of
00:24:48.120
Um, the, the challenge is I don't think they can do that without causing a recession and
00:24:53.820
major carnage in the economy, because at this point, all the things that have led into this,
00:24:59.520
um, you know, the monetary policy, the fiscal policy, the disruption, uh, in the supply chain,
00:25:12.020
It can make us go, Oh, we're not going to get a mortgage because, you know, it's that
00:25:15.260
6% or, you know, we're not going to spend as much at the store.
00:25:18.760
But, you know, how does it fix the fact that we have 1.8 jobs available for every worker?
00:25:24.980
You know, how does it fix the fact that we have four to 5 million homes, um, you know,
00:25:32.160
You know, how does it fix the fact that we've underinvested in energy and, and, and healthcare
00:25:38.880
So it's, uh, you know, the, the, the things that they would have to do to, to make those
00:25:46.440
And as I said, I think it would be really ugly for the economy.
00:25:49.620
So, um, you know, this, this could, it will probably at some point come down on a headline
00:25:58.460
It doesn't mean that we're not going to have elevated inflation and continued pain for a
00:26:05.000
So, uh, when we, when we look at things like what's happening over in Shanghai, where they've
00:26:10.620
shut everything down and I, where's that story?
00:26:13.940
There's a China has stranded 30 million truckers, 30 million truckers in China are now stuck at
00:26:26.180
This impact, we felt it last time that China shut down, but we shut down as well.
00:26:38.620
Yeah, well, obviously it's not a good thing, um, for supply chains for the companies that
00:26:46.280
Um, I think internally to China, it's a huge issue because they are a net importer of not
00:26:55.100
Um, and so, you know, what does that mean in terms of the potential for some of those people
00:27:00.240
to have, you know, pretty substantial food insecurity or starvation if they don't get
00:27:07.060
Um, and certainly as we know that the reverberations about, you know, all these decisions around the
00:27:12.720
world, um, could lead to other, other issues, social unrest and whatnot.
00:27:20.780
And so that even though we'll be in a better position, it doesn't mean it won't have real
00:27:26.860
And as we know, anytime something has an impact here in America, who feels it?
00:27:34.800
They're going to find a way to insulate themselves.
00:27:41.220
It's going to be the backbone of this country and this economy that bears the brunt of it.
00:27:45.860
So there was another story that I read today, global renewable power prices soar on heavy
00:27:52.760
demand, that contract prices for renewables in North America have gone up 28.5% and 27.5%
00:28:13.680
Well, this is what's called supply and demand, Glenn.
00:28:20.280
We have underinvested in all different kinds of commodities.
00:28:24.980
It's not just energy, but it's all different kinds of commodity components, things that are
00:28:32.840
And this huge push has led to increased demand.
00:28:37.340
And when you don't have enough supply to meet that demand, what happens?
00:28:42.860
If you think about something like copper, it's one of the biggest inputs into energy.
00:28:49.780
And so if you're going to have something that is electricity-based, you're going to need
00:28:55.360
There are a whole slew of other materials from aluminum to lithium and whatnot that are used
00:29:05.600
And again, we have not seen enough investment in order to fulfill these crazy wishes that
00:29:14.520
the folks who are pushing decarbonization want to fulfill.
00:29:18.400
By the way, you can ask Carol for answers on anything.
00:29:24.320
I said yesterday that I've always felt like I was here to warn what's coming over the horizon.
00:29:38.880
And information is empowering and to encourage you.
00:29:44.380
And that means to just keep doing the things that you know are right, do the next right thing,
00:29:49.980
but also to give you some answers on some things.
00:29:53.140
And so we've put up at glennbeck.com slash questions.
00:30:14.300
Concerning the economy for Carol Roth, we don't feel like we can trust our money to be in big banks,
00:30:20.500
but we also know the dollar stands to lose most of its value.
00:30:27.280
What is the best course for us to invest and convert our money to
00:30:30.520
so we'll have something if things change to digital?
00:30:36.800
This is not financial advice in the legal aspect of it.
00:30:41.920
This is just for your own information and additional research.
00:30:45.220
Okay, so the first thing I want to make sure is that you take care of your near term and emergency
00:30:53.980
If something goes sideways, you do want to make sure that you have enough cash on hand to be able to
00:31:00.140
But outside of that, you don't want your cash sitting in the bank because it's going to lose
00:31:11.640
Now, obviously, as we know, the Fed is increasing those mortgage rates.
00:31:15.960
So that is going to have some impact on housing probably in the near term.
00:31:20.760
But in the long term, we are underbuilt four to five plus million homes, depending on who
00:31:28.340
Plus, given the prices and what's happened over the last couple of years, we haven't seen
00:31:35.240
So I think that that imbalance is something you want to be thinking about.
00:31:39.460
Also, having some exposure to tangible commodities, to gold, to silver, to investments in other
00:31:52.240
But if you're thinking as a long term hedge against inflation, it's something for you to
00:32:02.740
This is physical you, especially on the on the gold and silver metal standpoint, you
00:32:12.960
And then on the stock side, obviously, you know, with the Federal Reserve raising rates,
00:32:19.840
There's going to be some volatility in the market.
00:32:22.460
If you are not sophisticated, the S&P 500 still gives you that broad diversification.
00:32:28.180
If you are looking to pick stocks, you're going to look for ones with inelastic demand.
00:32:35.080
That means that they are able to raise their prices to customers and customers will continue
00:32:41.500
You're going to want to look for ones with strong balance sheets that can weather whatever
00:32:45.860
is ahead and probably ones with extra cash to do some share buybacks because that is going
00:32:56.340
So in terms of you're looking at the central bank digital currency, that's going to come
00:33:02.620
And if things go sideways, think about things that are going to be a valuable barter commodity
00:33:13.400
If that happens, we have a whole bunch of problems.
00:33:23.720
We'll have Carol back to answer some more of those questions.
00:33:59.180
This is looking over like Shanghai's like almost like Central Park.
00:34:05.740
It is just high rise condos and apartments all the way around.
00:34:12.320
It's at night and you're hearing people scream.
00:34:22.760
They are basically saying they're locked into their apartments.
00:34:27.540
They have no food and they're saying, I would rather die than continue this anymore.
00:34:32.340
And various versions of that, the Chinese government is actually flying drones, telling them to suppress their soul's urge to be free and fall in line.
00:34:45.400
It is right out of Hunger Games or think about the worst dystopian novel.
00:34:51.380
You look at that and it's like a movie and you're just expecting like some superhero to fly in or something.
00:35:05.460
And by the way, this is not some corner of China.
00:35:09.000
This is the financial center of their universe.
00:35:12.540
And it is it's sort of the logical conclusion of of this this idea that government can keep us safe from a virus.
00:35:21.400
They have this defined philosophy of called zero covid, which means that we, the government, are going to use all of our powers to stop a virus.
00:35:33.640
And China has been celebrated from day one, starting with The New York Times and everybody else.
00:35:38.680
The Chinese model is the model and they're willing to do anything to prove that their model works.
00:35:45.060
They're going to kill as many people as they need to to keep people safe.
00:35:52.460
And and this is like sort of an arrogance of of central planning, technocratic authoritarianism.
00:35:59.520
The distribution of food has been taken over essentially by the government and it doesn't work.
00:36:05.580
The food is rotting outside of the corners of the city.
00:36:11.700
They've shut down the entire informal economy that has always been how people get fed.
00:36:23.720
And like you said, this is not some nowhere village.
00:36:31.900
I mean, this is the elite of the elite in the elite city.
00:36:36.720
I mean, I think that's that's why it's so shocking.
00:36:39.340
And there's so many videos now they've actually gotten through all of our tech sensors so that
00:36:44.820
people are seeing this and and for better or worse, you know, a lot of people started
00:36:49.540
paying attention when they saw videos of the same lockdown police beating the pets of the
00:36:57.140
people screaming to death because animals are a potential vector for covid and and people
00:37:04.040
you know, they can't see people starving in their apartments.
00:37:06.580
They can hear them, but they can see the brutality with which they're murdering pets in the street.
00:37:14.380
And and I'm hoping that finally, after two years of warning that lockdowns, you know, they
00:37:22.540
We potentially put people at risk of everything, including starving.
00:37:27.080
If there's no food, if there's no food production, if there's no food distribution, eventually we're
00:37:35.800
And I want people to understand that, especially since.
00:37:39.860
The reason why these people are not out in the streets is because there is such a tight
00:37:51.640
And and if you're out without your phone, there's a drone that comes up to you and says, go back
00:37:58.380
home and get your your drone or they pick you up and throw you away.
00:38:03.220
If you've ever watched the horrible series called Black Mirror, this is an episode out of there
00:38:07.960
because the Chinese government has the social credit system where they and they know your
00:38:22.120
So the the risk of leaving your home is that you will be destroyed forever.
00:38:26.820
You might actually be killed, but more importantly, there's no recovering from getting on the bad
00:38:35.260
Bad citizen means that not only you, but your family will pay the ultimate price.
00:38:41.400
And disloyalty is the one thing that's not accepted.
00:38:48.420
What was this, Stu, two years ago when they were doing this?
00:38:50.900
I remember they were welding people into their homes and we said, that'll never happen.
00:38:58.660
And then, you know, it happened, started happening even in Italy.
00:39:00.680
And I still thought, no, they're not going to do that here.
00:39:04.320
Well, I mean, I guess not necessarily the welding and the drones, but a version of that for
00:39:09.740
The version, I remember, I think it was Connecticut.
00:39:17.700
Um, and, and, and we, we did a, I should say we did a deep dive on this, uh, yesterday and,
00:39:23.440
and the show that you and I did for Kibbe on Liberty will, will air next Wednesday.
00:39:28.720
And the deep dive here is that this, the Chinese model, um, which is directly related to the
00:39:36.960
Great Reset and the idea that authoritarians are going to replace, um, personal choice.
00:39:46.280
Um, the logic of this was always about the Chinese model.
00:39:49.500
And so you see, like, I'm shocked where we've all been shocked to see just how far Canada
00:39:54.500
will go in terms of debanking the truckers and everything else.
00:40:00.200
It depends exactly on how much the American people are willing to put up with, because
00:40:05.040
I think that our government is not immune from this gross, obscene, abuse of power.
00:40:15.440
It just depends if they'll let us, the emergency, whatever the emergency is, if it's big enough,
00:40:28.300
And this was, this was our frustration early on when we were complaining about lockdowns.
00:40:33.300
So I was, I was geeking out like a Carol Roth on, on supply chains and that kind of thing.
00:40:39.240
Um, and then we talked about vaccine mandates and Vax ports as the infrastructure for a social
00:40:46.340
credit system and, and being forced to take a vaccine that you may or may not want to do.
00:40:52.600
These are all components of the Chinese model and, and everybody viewed them as very benign
00:40:59.860
public health measures, but they're quite the opposite.
00:41:05.000
So, you know, there's a lot of libertarians that, um, will, and, and quite frankly, a lot
00:41:11.720
of conservative Republicans too, that will sit back and look at the great reset and say,
00:41:23.820
Um, it's not a private business in any realistic sense.
00:41:30.000
A lot of these tech companies that are controlling the narrative that we've all talked about so much
00:41:34.600
um, they're taking a lot of money from the government in terms of ad revenue.
00:41:38.860
Um, they're essentially accepting a deal that they can't refuse when even the president's
00:41:45.620
press secretary says, you better do something about these dissident voices.
00:41:56.980
The social credit system in China is executed by nominally private interest, banking tech.
00:42:03.760
It's, it's not a government program in that sense.
00:42:06.800
So you have this, this collusion between big business and big government that is happening
00:42:16.980
Are they just pursuing, uh, higher profits through their relationships with government?
00:42:26.460
And there's, it's fascism and, uh, and it's strange because the corporations that are afraid
00:42:33.400
of it and are just falling into line because they see the writing on the wall, they are
00:42:38.460
already in their, you know, their corporate condo around central park, ready to get out on
00:42:52.740
And now is the time to scream that because it's not completely finished yet.
00:42:58.340
Once it's finished, not only will some of those corporations regret this, uh, but so will
00:43:19.380
And you have to think, you know, well, I, yeah, I'd take the vaccine.
00:43:26.180
And for however long they tell you to do it, will you not stand up in your PTA meeting
00:43:32.420
when they're talking to your kindergartners about transsexual and telling your kindergartner
00:43:45.640
And if you can say, yeah, I'd, I'd rather, I'd, you know, I'd rather just comply than have
00:43:53.660
But if you disagree with anyone on anything, unless you're 100% compliant on whatever else
00:44:05.380
The only answer is peaceful civil disobedience.
00:44:09.320
There's a lot more of us than there are of them, but somebody needs to stick their neck
00:44:15.660
It's, it's sort of an act of, uh, entrepreneurship in a sense.
00:44:19.360
Um, some crazy guy is going to say, you know what?
00:44:25.260
And there's safety in numbers and other people follow.
00:44:28.080
And pretty soon you have a convoy of Canadian truckers shutting down the capital of Canada.
00:44:35.480
And we watched in real time what the government did to those people, but they also changed
00:44:43.380
I think the only reason that we're not doing, um, employer vaccine mandates in this country
00:44:50.100
It makes me very sad that it wasn't American Americans that did.
00:44:55.060
It makes me actually proud and makes us feel not so alone that it was Canadians that did
00:45:00.540
And that was a high profile example though, but isn't, wasn't it sort of eroded this
00:45:06.540
Like these mask mandates were in effect in Texas for a long time.
00:45:12.800
And there were periods where I think people sort of paid attention to them, but it went
00:45:17.920
I mean, I, it seemed like there was a, a large scale, but very like low simmer of people just
00:45:25.840
constantly blowing these things off and moving on with their lives.
00:45:31.460
See, this is why I need to move to Texas because we have a completely different view
00:45:44.960
I spent all my time driving to Virginia to go to the gym, to go to restaurants, to go
00:45:48.980
to the grocery store simply because I want this sort of civil, civil disobedience to happen.
00:45:55.480
We, we actually did a documentary about a restaurant bar owner in DC.
00:46:10.020
And by the way, the mayor lifted those just days after she shut him down.
00:46:15.220
So I, again, someone needs to be brave and it, it might feel irrational to put your life
00:46:20.860
and your business on the line, but somebody has got to step up and, and, you know, it's
00:46:27.980
I think people are generally more inclined to resist irrational authority.
00:46:34.760
Like we're swimming in a cesspool of, of violence.
00:46:39.180
You are in the cult of, of, uh, of, uh, wokeness there.
00:46:48.940
Um, you can, uh, hear the podcast we did yesterday.
00:46:51.980
He interviewed me on the great reset, uh, and it was a really good, fascinating conversation.
00:46:57.560
You can hear that Kibby, uh, Kibby on Liberty, uh, that is on blaze TV and you can get it
00:47:03.660
next Wednesday, next Wednesday, next Wednesday.
00:47:05.900
If you're not a subscriber, blaze TV, what are you thinking?
00:47:08.440
There's too much good stuff that you're missing.
00:47:10.580
You can become a subscriber at, uh, blaze tv.com slash Glenn, use the promo code Glenn and
00:47:26.020
Elite and alã‚ャラ if you're normal who you're not were.
00:47:30.740
That's the best about why you wanted to destroy.
