Transcript

00:00:00.000 All right. Thank you so much, Hillary. We are so glad that you've joined us today. Big show.
00:00:04.880 We're going to explain a couple of things, COVID and your economy coming up. Let me tell you about
00:00:09.500 the zebra.com. I am so focused on making sure that you are spending money in the right place,
00:00:16.620 that you are not wasting money. And this is where the zebra comes in. The zebra.com
00:00:23.100 is a place where you can go find the right insurance coverage, major insurance quotes for
00:00:30.440 home, for your car. The average person that goes to the zebra.com slash back will save $922 a year
00:00:40.100 on home and auto combined. That's a thousand bucks. I don't know. I could use an extra thousand dollars.
00:00:46.720 It'll take you literally five minutes to do it. Save time, save money, save a thousand bucks on
00:00:53.940 average. The zebra.com slash back. Support the show. Support a group of people that support you.
00:01:02.560 The zebra.com slash back.
00:01:16.720 We got no room to compromise. We got to stand together if we're gonna survive. Stand up straight and hold
00:01:39.600 the line. It's a new day. I'm trying to rise. What you are about to hear is the fusion of
00:01:52.080 entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:00.620 Hello, America. Rand Paul released a report yesterday on inflation and his message was,
00:02:09.600 it's only going to get worse. He's right. But I want to give you an additional message.
00:02:16.180 It is also only going to get better. We are at a flex point. Things are changing and things are going
00:02:27.260 to get better. I'll explain that and also the COVID stuff that, wait a minute, it's going to take a month
00:02:35.900 for the free testing to come out. What? All that and much more on today's program. We begin in 60 seconds.
00:02:44.400 So, you know, the thing about companies now, I think you could be such a wild success if you just do what you say
00:02:56.040 you're going to do. You know, I can't tell you how many companies in remodeling my home, which will be done in the
00:03:03.700 next two weeks. How many companies have failed the basic test? And I'm not talking about supply chain
00:03:12.040 stuff. They just don't do what they say they're going to do. I don't understand that. I'm not asking
00:03:18.300 you to be a hero. I'm not asking you to go way above and beyond. Just do what you said you were going to
00:03:24.180 do. When I find a company like that, it makes all the difference in the world. These are the companies
00:03:30.800 that advertise on this program. And they're also people that believe in you. They find value with half the
00:03:37.720 country. They're like, hey, they're people, too. What do you say we support them? And these guys are taking on a
00:03:46.780 lot to advertise on programs like mine. And so I would ask that if you need any of their products, and that means
00:03:54.760 locally as well, anybody who's advertising on your local station to please frequent them. Now, let me
00:04:00.740 tell you about a company that does what they say. Car Shield. Insurance for your car is difficult. I'm
00:04:08.480 not talking about accidents and accident insurance. I mean, your warranty. When your warranty goes and
00:04:14.800 it expires, your car, I swear to you, it is built to break down. It's only meant to last up until that
00:04:21.440 warranty. And then when the warranty is over, it's almost like, go ahead, fry all the chips, Ralph.
00:04:25.980 Uh, and it breaks down. That's always been a problem. Always been a problem. But right now,
00:04:33.320 it is a colossal problem. Because if your car breaks down, like I have my, uh, my trucks covered
00:04:39.680 with a car shield. When my truck goes down, I'm not going out and buying a used truck because they're
00:04:47.220 what, 32%, 37% up in price. I'm not buying a new one because you can't get one. And I can't let it
00:04:55.940 sit there in the garage and wait without a rental. How much is that going to cost me? Take all of that
00:05:02.940 off your plate. Car Shield. They do what they say they're going to do. Covered repairs are a snap.
00:05:09.400 You don't wait for the money to be repaid to you. They pay the mechanic of your choice. Roadside
00:05:16.020 assistance, rental car, all of it. Deductibles may apply, but call Car Shield. Just go to their
00:05:21.900 website, carshield.com slash back. Save 10% right now. carshield.com slash back. All right.
00:05:30.900 So let's talk about inflation. And Rand Paul yesterday released a report that talked about
00:05:41.100 our living standards and real average hourly earnings. Those things are actually decreasing.
00:05:49.020 You know, when, when, when Joe Biden says, we'll just pay people more. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's
00:05:54.400 good. Um, except if you're not keeping up with the rate of inflation, you're actually making
00:06:00.840 less, even though they're paying you more. I know it's confusing, but you have to understand
00:06:06.860 that inflation is a hidden tax and you are not getting the bailouts. Most Americans now are starting
00:06:17.040 to look at loans, especially if you're a small business owner, you've already taken out a loan
00:06:21.860 or you're about to take out a loan and the interest rates are going to go up another way for you to have
00:06:28.760 to pay more to keep your store open, to keep your life going, to be able to buy a car. You need a
00:06:37.360 car. Okay. How much is it going to cost me an interest rate? The zero down zero APR, that's going to be a
00:06:46.100 thing of the past. Uh, and it's going to get harder and harder for all of us to be able to survive.
00:06:53.100 So I want to talk to you a little bit in a little bit about inflation and what the fed is going to
00:07:00.840 do. But the problem is, is it's going to possibly stop the heart of a recovery. Because if you don't
00:07:09.380 have a loan, if you can't get a mortgage, mortgage applications are down 50% month to month, 50%.
00:07:18.740 And they haven't even really started raising the interest rates. Some banks are raising the
00:07:23.180 interest rates, but they're making more money because the interest rate on them hasn't been
00:07:27.560 raised yet. So people are already starting to feel this crunch and this pinch. What do we do
00:07:35.960 about it? And what is causing it? First thing we have to do, build back better must never pass.
00:07:45.920 Uh, all of the spending in Washington, it is competing against you. So I was remodeling my
00:07:56.260 house. We had to pour some concrete. I never knew concrete was, you know, as difficult to get
00:08:06.200 as, you know, concrete seems like, yeah, just go to the store and get some concrete and you put it in
00:08:10.680 a wheelbarrow, throw some water in it and you got it. But when you're actually, you know, redoing a
00:08:15.840 foundation or anything like that and the concrete truck comes, it still never seemed like a big deal
00:08:22.660 to me because I never had a concrete truck come to my house before. But, uh, when it comes
00:08:28.100 in the pandemic, it was insane. It was insane. How much money that concrete cost. All of the,
00:08:42.920 all of the things that we have taken for granted are going sky high. So you're having to pay more.
00:08:51.640 They're having to charge more. Your salary isn't going up, uh, quite as fast. So what do we do?
00:09:00.460 The government is now talking about price controls. Another absolutely horrific idea.
00:09:09.100 Everything that this government is now talking about and doing, I think we can see from San
00:09:16.540 Francisco, none of it works. None of it works, right? I mean, San Francisco, I've always thought
00:09:24.640 San Francisco was the most beautiful city in America. It is, it's on the water. It has beautiful
00:09:31.540 buildings and architecture and history and Hills. And it's just, it's spectacular. It is spectacular.
00:09:39.180 I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, so I'm used to that kind of weather and everything else.
00:09:44.080 But if you've ever visited San Francisco, Oh no, 20 years ago, you know how spectacular that city is.
00:09:51.320 You cannot walk the streets anymore. It is so bad. There are needles and, and feces, human feces
00:10:03.720 everywhere in good neighborhoods. If you're walking your dog, I'm not kidding you. They will take your
00:10:13.100 dog. You will, you'll have your dog jacked and they'll take it and they'll sell it for, you know,
00:10:20.840 a hundred bucks. People who live in good neighborhoods can't go out and walk their dog. They can't,
00:10:29.520 they can't do anything. This is a problem. And the problem is the solutions that have been given to
00:10:39.720 us are making these things much, much worse. And they're, and, and we, we, we know it. We've seen it
00:10:47.800 over and over and over again, what we're going through right now. We went through in the 1970s
00:10:52.800 stagflation, which your, your cost of living is going up. It's not keeping up with your job,
00:11:00.080 uh, and how much you're being paid for your job. How do I, how do I make ends meet? You cut back
00:11:07.020 because things are too expensive. You're not getting the raise that you need. Everything
00:11:13.120 just stops stagflation, high prices, no movement in the 1970s. When we had this and we had an oil
00:11:21.040 crisis as well, Richard Nixon decided he was going to do price controls. Price controls do not work.
00:11:29.280 What happens is the government comes in and says, you can't charge more than X. Well, wait a minute,
00:11:37.340 but it's costing me more than that to be able to make that. So that causes more scarcity on the
00:11:46.020 market because you can't make it for that price. Or if you do make it at that price, you're not making
00:11:53.000 very much. So, so businesses are like, I can't afford to keep my doors open and just break even like
00:11:59.020 that. So what do I do? So it causes more scarcity. Now for a limited time, price controls will work,
00:12:07.780 but the minute you, um, retract them, the prices go through the roof again, because the market,
00:12:14.660 we have to just stop denying nature. Man, this is why capitalism works and why capitalism goes bad
00:12:26.800 because man wants an easier life. Man wants to be successful. Man, uh, wants creature comforts,
00:12:39.160 but man also gets greedy. Man also go corrupt. So the nature of things is let the free market work.
00:12:52.780 Let people set the prices, let people set the direction, not as individuals, but as a collective,
00:13:02.540 where are we headed as a nation and encourage those people to be good, decent people.
00:13:09.540 If you are teaching people to be empathetic and loving towards one another, even their enemies,
00:13:15.460 that's the Western Judeo-Christian value. It is love your enemy, forgive people, move on, heal.
00:13:28.120 That's what made the West. We are now denying all of those things and we're coupling it with a market
00:13:36.840 that we say is free, but it's not. At best, it's corrupt by people who do not believe in those
00:13:44.940 Judeo-Christian, they believe in money. They believe in getting rich. They believe in getting ahead
00:13:52.380 on the other guy. When you've lost the forgiveness and empathy part, you now are entering a part of
00:13:59.520 capitalism that is bloody ugly and very corrupt. So to fix that, governments, which are completely
00:14:09.780 corrupt, come in and say, you know what we need to do, we need to control this. But the people who
00:14:16.800 are in charge of the control, it's like, you know, putting the mob in charge of the police.
00:14:23.620 They're corrupt.
00:14:26.460 So everything breaks down and that's where we are right now. Everything has broken down because
00:14:33.780 we have denied too many truths. So how do we fix it? The first thing we do is face the truth.
00:14:44.300 You know what? Our police, they have problems, but it's not the kind of problem that everybody
00:14:50.020 has said it is. There are problems in the police force here and there, just like there are problems
00:14:58.100 in, you know, bakeries and, you know, Ford, the factory line. There are people there who are doing
00:15:09.540 bad things. You go for those individuals and you try to correct those things. You don't say,
00:15:16.940 let's reimagine the entire world. Let's reimagine police force.
00:15:21.760 I'm sorry, but you can take your imagination on your time. I take the universal truths of bad guys
00:15:32.320 will only get worse if there's no law enforcement. And if there is no actual justice, if there's social
00:15:39.540 justice, we're all screwed and people will be shooting up on the streets and pooping on your
00:15:44.460 front lawn while somebody else is stealing your dog while you're on a walk. That's what happens.
00:15:49.680 That's where we are. So the first thing we have to do is just repoint all of those truths.
00:15:58.360 We know where our cornerstones are. We just have denied them. We know what the truth really is.
00:16:06.740 We've just tried to get along. Now I'm, I take that back into the nineties, political correctness.
00:16:13.720 We just tried to get along. Look, let's not, we want our kids to feel good trophies, blah, blah, blah.
00:16:19.220 All that has to end. All of it ends. It's the only way to heal. Stop denying the truth.
00:16:28.640 I'm sorry. That swimmer, that's a dude. That dude should not be competing against those girls.
00:16:38.520 Period. Oh my gosh, that's so hateful. That hurts. Nope, it's not. It's not meant to be hateful.
00:16:46.640 You can interpret it as hateful. All I'm telling you is he's a dude. That is the truth.
00:16:57.740 Oh, uno. I got to text you this picture of uno I got last night from the vet. He, uh, he's had the
00:17:10.600 surgery still. He's had the surgery. Is he transitioning? Yeah. Well, I think he probably
00:17:17.100 is thinking that today. What happened to me? What did you just cut off of me? Um, because, uh,
00:17:23.740 you know, he's, he's, he's just got, he's getting older and he's got some problems. So he went in,
00:17:27.840 but I had this picture of him last night, uh, the vet sent and his time he was dead asleep,
00:17:33.040 but his tongue is just like long and hanging out the side. It's like a cartoon. Uh, and then when he
00:17:39.720 woke up, they took a video and they're like, here, you know, here's something to eat. And he looked down
00:17:44.080 at the bowl and then he looked back up at the camera and he looked down at the bowl and he laid down.
00:17:49.380 And I thought, you need rough greens. You got to have rough greens or he's not going to eat it.
00:17:56.340 Uh, rough greens is not a dog food. It is a supplement that you put on your dog's food
00:18:01.400 and they love it. They love it. And they grow healthier because of it. You will see a difference
00:18:07.940 in your dog. At least I have Stu has, I mean, president miles, we only call him president miles
00:18:12.740 because his dog is older in actual years, not just dog years, actual years than, uh, Joe Biden.
00:18:19.380 Yes. He's, but yet he's still awake more often than Joe Biden. Yeah, he is. I mean,
00:18:23.160 he's awake for what, about 23 minutes a day. Yeah. Yeah. Approximately, uh, rough greens.com
00:18:27.860 slash back and get your free bag right now. Just for your dog to try out, make sure they like it.
00:18:32.640 It's R U F F greens.com slash back rough greens.com slash back eight three, three Glenn 33. Call
00:18:39.800 them now. 10 seconds station ID. So when I was talking to you a minute ago about concrete,
00:18:56.020 the reason why I bring this up is if I am in the market for concrete, because I'm building a house
00:19:04.500 or I'm building whatever, if I'm in the market for concrete and the government is spending trillions
00:19:11.680 of dollars on quote infrastructure, they're buying all of the concrete. So now my tax dollars are
00:19:21.420 competing against me as I'm trying to buy concrete. So when they talk about infrastructure and it was
00:19:30.620 like, yeah, we need infrastructure, we're going to spend another $4 trillion on infrastructure.
00:19:35.580 That's great. Unless you're trying to build a house, unless you need copper for your wiring,
00:19:42.360 unless you need anything, you need steel. Good luck because you're now in the market against literally
00:19:51.800 yourself who is bidding the price of all of this stuff through the roof.
00:19:57.760 I beg of you to think of this in every local election when they tell you they're going to
00:20:02.120 spend $30 million on a new gym in your neighborhood. Think of the people who own gyms
00:20:08.220 in your neighborhood who are now competing against themselves with their own tax dollars.
00:20:14.100 This is a new thing and it's in Texas and it's driving me out of my mind.
00:20:17.600 It's all over. It's not just Texas, but it's all over.
00:20:19.860 It shouldn't be in Texas though.
00:20:21.940 No.
00:20:22.140 I mean, it is insane.
00:20:23.820 Yeah. These cities build these giant
00:20:25.680 mega centers, like rec centers with incredible gyms and incredible facilities, which is a nice,
00:20:31.540 most people just look at it. It's a nice benefit that the, the, it's usually a cheap
00:20:35.820 membership fee as compared to the open market. But what does that do to a person who spent all
00:20:42.720 this money building a business in a town and now has opened up competition paid for by their
00:20:48.800 own tax dollars. So I went to, I went to city hall, um, recently in my town, seeing you walk in
00:20:56.200 there. Oh my gosh. Oh gosh. Okay. Do you know what they just built in city hall? No, a restaurant
00:21:07.880 slash bar and they built it. It's not run privately. It's run by the city and they did it. So, you know,
00:21:17.240 you could meet with city council and everything. Excuse me. I almost lost my mind. You can have a
00:21:24.840 restaurant so you can meet with city council. So you can just go and meet with them and they can,
00:21:29.040 you know, you can meet with your officials and it's an uncomfortable situation. I don't want to
00:21:32.980 meet with my officials in a comfortable sitting. I don't mind if they're sitting on a sandbag and
00:21:37.680 they're having to wear razor wire for braces. I don't really give a flying crap. I want them to be
00:21:44.320 as uncomfortable and out of that office as much as possible. What do you mean? So I can go meet
00:21:50.760 with them in a comfortable place. If I need to meet with them and I'm hungry, meet me at McDonald's.
00:21:58.260 Meet me at McDonald's. You know what? You're such an, you're such a boob. I'll sit there and you can be
00:22:04.460 in the little playscape thing while we talk. And now there are restaurants around town where they,
00:22:11.380 where people used to go for meetings. Correct. Where they will not go and they will instead give
00:22:15.080 the money to the town to pay for more junk. What is that? It's a terrible, terrible. It's a horrible
00:22:22.360 development. Yeah. And absolute public private partnerships. It's all part of the great reset.
00:22:28.400 Stop. Stop. Let the public do it. Let people, individuals do it. Not the politicians or government.
00:22:39.640 Glenn Beck Program. American Financing NMLS 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:22:47.760 So I was looking at that, um, uh, stat today about how mortgages are, are way down. Applications
00:22:55.860 for mortgages are way down. That's for a couple of reasons. One, the great reset people are being
00:23:01.700 priced out of houses. Um, the second thing is, is the banks are starting to rise, uh, to raise their
00:23:08.740 interest rates and make it more difficult and inflation. You have to save money. You have to
00:23:15.720 get a consolidation loan. If you have a high interest credit card debt, so you can save money.
00:23:20.800 You need to lock in the lowest interest rate you possibly can. Most people don't even know what
00:23:26.800 they're paying for in their mortgage. Find out. It can save you a buttload of money. American financing.
00:23:33.740 They don't work for the bank. They work for you. I have known these people for a long time. They've

00:25:31.600 Totally free. Hang on just a second.
00:25:33.420 Unless, you know, you pay taxes.
00:25:36.060 I could have gotten into, I could have walked into a Walmart or Home Depot or any place, gotten
00:25:40.980 N95 masks, walked out without paying for them already. Unless they charge over a thousand
00:25:48.360 dollars. They're not going to charge me with a crime.
00:25:50.620 That's true.
00:25:52.000 What are these new policies?
00:25:53.880 Who cares about inflation?
00:25:55.080 Right.
00:25:55.500 Just start taking stuff.
00:25:56.540 As long as it's under a thousand bucks, it's free.
00:25:59.840 But all this is happening and it's, do you find it at all strange?
00:26:05.940 Yes.
00:26:07.240 You don't even have to finish.
00:26:09.200 No matter what I put at the end of the sentence.
00:26:10.740 No matter what you put in.
00:26:11.640 Yes.
00:26:11.980 But do you find it at all strange that here we have this, a new variant that's blowing
00:26:17.420 through the population. We, it now appears that we are past the peak nationally. We're
00:26:22.560 past the peak in about 20, 20 states pretty clearly. And the other states are going to
00:26:27.620 peak here in the next week or two. We should be completely done with this in a few weeks.
00:26:32.880 Yes.
00:26:33.560 You know, completely in air quotes. I mean, there'll still be things going on, but it should be
00:26:38.240 mostly past. And about that time, we are going to get 500 million tests and 400 million
00:26:45.400 and 95 masks at our expense after the wave is over. Why? Why? Why would it? Why? Because
00:26:55.700 there's a couple of things.
00:26:56.460 Why? Why would it? Why would it come after the wave instead of before when we all remember
00:27:06.420 on Thanksgiving week, getting the alerts from South Africa, that there's a new variant,
00:27:13.000 they made it a thing. It started growing in South Africa. We all saw it. Then it hit
00:27:16.660 all these other countries. We knew it was coming and they waited until after. So why?
00:27:22.780 Okay.
00:27:23.100 Why?
00:27:23.520 So here's the thing. I listened to the New York Times podcast this morning and they gave
00:27:27.960 me the answer. Why? And they're 100% wrong. Okay. Okay. They're like, well, you know,
00:27:33.420 supply chain and manufacturing and no, you're 100% wrong because those were available. And
00:27:39.660 95 masks were available. I bought rapid tests in stores. I have to. So like it was, they
00:27:46.680 were coming out. Now I know a big, you know, movement like this. I mean, I'm sure it's, there's
00:27:52.740 some tests on the supply chain, but those, they, they were out there. They were just
00:27:56.840 imagine if Donald Trump were president, what would be being said right now? I mean, there's
00:28:01.660 no excuse for this. Okay. So let me explain why governments follow. They do not lead. Even
00:28:10.560 fascistic governments follow. They do not lead. People generally lead in the case of medicine.
00:28:21.040 disease leads. You know, we didn't have anybody. We had Fauci, but he was working on the disease
00:28:29.600 first. You know, let's create a disease so we can get a cure. When it comes to things
00:28:36.320 like disease, we weren't working on things until you know exactly what's here and, and
00:28:44.280 what we need. Okay. So disease leads, people lead, the markets lead governments cannot, they're
00:28:54.760 too slow. So that's the first thing. The government, this is fast for government reaction. This is
00:29:02.840 fast. I mean, how many times have things gone wrong? Way wrong. And you're like, well, is
00:29:09.040 anybody doing anything about this? I mean, we've got massive fraud here or a massive fraud
00:29:14.300 there. And yeah, we're, we're working on that. We're doing a study on that. Okay. So this
00:29:18.800 is always late. This is a rapid, rapid response for the government. So that should show you one
00:29:25.820 completely ineffective. Governments are completely ineffective left to the free market. They already,
00:29:34.320 because there's demand for it left to people who are motivated to a do the right thing and
00:29:43.320 be produce because they'll make money. Those two things will always be faster and better. The
00:29:52.120 second thing is, this is not about the disease. Everything we know that, that we think is coming
00:30:00.840 and is now being verified by the Europeans and Israel and South Africa. All of the things that
00:30:08.840 we now know about Omicron show this probably is it. We're probably burning ourself out right now.
00:30:16.400 I know people who were dead set for masks. They were for the mandates, everything else. And they're
00:30:24.420 done. They're done. They're vaccinated. They're done. And they see this and they instinctively know
00:30:32.140 this is over. This, this is it. We're all going to get this. And then it's over. Generally speaking,
00:30:41.500 things don't, you know, smallpox, uh, when we came up with a vaccine for it and eradicated it,
00:30:48.240 it generally doesn't mutate and get much, much worse unless you haven't killed it. The common cold
00:30:57.240 is not going to suddenly become Ebola because nature wants that to survive. It's life. That cold,
00:31:06.880 that virus is life. And so the natural thing is survival of the fittest. Well, when it comes to
00:31:14.320 things like Corona virus, the survival of the fittest means the one that is the least deadly to
00:31:19.860 the host. So it can continue to live. So it's not going to go backwards. Generally speaking, could
00:31:27.540 doubtful. The government has made this about control. They have made this about silencing of speech.
00:31:37.700 They've made this about vaccine passports for an entirely different reason. They've made this about
00:31:45.440 labor unions in our schools. They have not made it about health. That is, that is the, um, the stage
00:31:56.800 makeup that makes you believe that guy is really who he says he is. No, that's a fake nose, man. That's a fake
00:32:05.580 nose. That's not, no, they are pretending. They are doing things just enough, just enough to be able to, um,
00:32:15.660 keep some credibility, which I think they failed at because they think they're smarter than the average
00:32:20.740 person. Look at what's happened. There were a few people that were awake, but now look, you have people
00:32:28.660 on the left. You have people who vehemently disagree with me who are actually saying the same thing. They just
00:32:34.400 don't think they are because of social media. They think I'm saying something entirely different.
00:32:40.000 They're saying the same thing. They're done. They're done. The government is only putting these
00:32:46.840 things in so they can retain control and power. It's not over yet. You still need us. We still have to do
00:32:56.420 this. It's over. And people need to start demanding back off. Let Pfizer do what Pfizer does back off.
00:33:06.260 And let me just to illustrate that point. This is the New York times. Now this guy never gets on
00:33:10.760 the daily podcast that you were speaking of because he keeps saying things like this,
00:33:14.360 but this is a David Leonhardt. And let me, this is a, this is a sentence in the New York times today.
00:33:20.180 Today, the available evidence suggests that Omicron is less threatening to a vaccinated person than a normal
00:33:27.900 flu. We are at a point where today Hawaii is talking about not allowing people in their state if they are
00:33:38.220 not, not just vaccinated, but boosted. Washington DC, which is clearly on the other side now, probably the most
00:33:46.320 clear in the nation on the other side of the peak of Omicron is today, this week, instituting new, all sorts of
00:33:54.580 new restrictions on this side after the peak. So. Because they are not about anything other than control.
00:34:04.220 If this had something to do with science, you would hear, you would hear people starting to say, well, it looks like
00:34:11.280 we're in the clear. Looks like we're, we're headed in that direction. We still have deaths. We still are
00:34:16.600 going to have problems. Yeah. But this is now something that we can all live with all around the
00:34:22.240 world. It, this is now changed. This is exactly what I told you would happen in January of 19 when it was
00:34:32.740 still in China only. And I said, here's what's going to happen. What we have to get used to right now.
00:34:38.880 We don't know how deadly this thing is going to be, but let's just assume it's the 1918 kind of flu.
00:34:47.040 It's going to kill a lot of people, but it's going to be worse for the economy and the ramifications
00:34:54.200 long-term for the economy than it will be in death. Death will be bad, but what's going to happen to
00:35:02.320 the world is something that should concern every American and every person on the planet.
00:35:07.600 The second thing I said was, and we're going to live with this forever. Eventually it is going to
00:35:15.980 burn itself out and it will become like the common cold or the flu. And I said at the time, we don't
00:35:23.360 want to add another 50,000 deaths a year to the flu, but that's probably what's going to happen.
00:35:29.060 We didn't have the flu. 1918 wipes all these millions of people out. And then within three
00:35:36.780 years, it's just the flu. There's a slow burn instead of that raging fire. Correct. So we lose
00:35:42.980 now about 50,000 people every year due to the flu. People get vaccines if they are immunocompromised or
00:35:51.840 they're elderly and they should get the vaccine. The same thing with Omicron and with COVID-19 it's
00:36:00.220 now no longer going to be scary, but that's the problem. Anyone who wants power needs you to be afraid.
00:36:13.140 See, this is, this is the real key to solving all of this. Choose not to be afraid. I'm not afraid of
00:36:23.460 COVID. I'm not afraid of losing my voice. I'm not afraid of, you know, losing my job. I'm not going to
00:36:31.880 like it. If I do, I won't like, I don't like being a pariah because of what I politically believe, but I'm not
00:36:40.420 afraid of it. They have no power over you. If you're not afraid, zero power. That's why they, they double
00:36:49.900 down every step of the way to silence you and to make you feel alone. They make sure that you're not
00:36:57.160 connecting to all the people that you say you want to connect with on Facebook. They hide those people.
00:37:03.420 They stop them from being into your feed because they need you to feel isolated and alone. You're not, you're not.
00:37:12.220 They are, and they are on the losing side. You are on the right side of history. Don't let fear play a role in
00:37:22.020 your life at all. Don't, don't. Back in a minute.
00:37:25.920 All right. As if finding a job in this crazy economy isn't frustrating enough. I mean, boy,
00:37:34.100 how do you find a job? There's help signs wanted everywhere, everywhere. Anyway,
00:37:40.140 there are reports that at least 36,000 fake job listings are designed to harvest your information
00:37:47.020 online, your driver's license information, your social security number, and a whole lot more.
00:37:51.820 Just going out and finding a job. Are you being scammed? It is really important to understand
00:37:58.120 how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting your life and will continue to do it. If you don't
00:38:04.720 have somebody that is really on your side, looking for all these things, nobody can stop all cybercrime.
00:38:10.340 It is a growing industry. It's changing all the time, but the best in the business is LifeLock.
00:38:17.320 LifeLock by Norton. They've been, they were the first in back in the nineties when, you know,
00:38:23.480 Hey, take my social security number. Go ahead. I'm not worried about it. And I'm like,
00:38:29.280 why would anybody be worried about their social security? You know, they were in it before anyone
00:38:34.780 understood identity theft and they're the best and they'll help clean things up. If they miss something,

00:38:57.140 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:38:58.860 Some great news coming out of New Hampshire. We go there here in just a second.
00:39:16.460 You know, Glenn, over the past year or so, you've come to the idea of presenting gifts to me on the
00:39:21.900 air for big moments in my life. Really? Yeah, you have. And I have one for you because look,
00:39:27.180 you've got a number one book, you've got a big special, a great reset special today.
00:39:31.100 So I have a gift for you and I don't think you'll have any idea what this is.
00:39:36.140 This is, uh, the wire season five, episode eight clarifications.
00:39:43.720 Did you know that you Glenn Beck were in the wire? I had no idea. I know you were it. This is the show
00:39:51.620 that Jason Whitlock was on here saying, you look at the list of the top hundred shows of all time.
00:39:55.680 It's often the number one, sometimes number two, number three. I'm watching the wire because I had
00:40:01.180 never watched it. In season five, Glenn's just on TV in the show. Do I have any idea this existed?
00:40:10.840 I had no idea.
00:40:12.480 I couldn't believe it. And I actually, because I mean this the best way possible. You do appear
00:40:19.540 a little different than you did in 2008. Are you saying there was a no is a fat thing to the
00:40:25.440 point of I literally worked on the show that is pictured. It's just on the TV. The mayor is
00:40:31.440 watching TV and you're on the TV. And this is before you're on Fox, which I thought was really
00:40:35.620 interesting. So when you're on CNN headline news, you're doing a show in LA and I remember the show.
00:40:40.180 Oh, I do too. With the Hollywood sign in the background and everything. And I looked at you
00:40:44.280 and I actually, a person who worked on the show had to rewind it to make sure it was actually you
00:40:49.120 because you look so different.
00:40:51.480 I have seen some pictures lately. Not only the fatness thing, but my hair is completely white now, completely white.
00:41:00.620 Yeah. Thank you, George Soros.
00:41:04.580 Congratulations. You know, you're on the IMDB page for the number one show of all time.
00:41:09.580 Well, I played a big role in that.
00:41:11.680 You did.
00:41:12.100 And the success really comes from this program.
00:41:15.920 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:41:18.260 Thank you so much.
00:41:18.940 Um, I want to tell you personally that I have been working with Vladimir Zelenko.
00:41:23.040 He is the, uh, the doctor that president Trump, uh, credited, uh, with a successful early treatment
00:41:30.040 protocol. Uh, he's the guy with hydroxychloroquine at the very, very beginning.
00:41:34.580 Um, but he's worked two years on stuff and his patients recover and he doesn't lose patients.
00:41:42.140 And he also has this res, um, this, um, uh, regimen that he calls the Z stack.
00:41:48.580 That you've been able to buy in piecemeal, et cetera, et cetera.
00:41:52.580 He's decided to make it for his patients.
00:41:55.620 And now we've asked him if we could actually help him, uh, sell it because I think it's
00:42:00.620 really important.
00:42:01.460 Take control of your own health.
00:42:03.680 Z stack life.com slash back.
00:42:07.260 Again, this is from, uh, the, the world renowned Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
00:42:12.200 He's been on the program before.
00:42:14.300 Uh, he's one of the leading authorities on preventive, uh, uh, medicines to be able to
00:42:20.960 make sure you don't get it.
00:42:22.960 And if you do get it, all of the treatments, it's Z stack life.com slash back.
00:42:29.900 Go there now.
00:42:30.760 I take it every day.
00:42:31.860 Z stack life.com slash back.
00:42:33.960 We got to stand together.
00:43:01.200 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:22.020 This is the Glenn back program.
00:43:29.500 As you know, prices have gone way up.
00:43:33.160 It's inflation.
00:43:34.500 They lied to us, told it was, told us it was transitory.
00:43:38.060 Who is still listening to these people?
00:43:40.720 Honestly, they told us that if we just bail out all the banks, no one would be too big
00:43:46.320 to fail.
00:43:46.880 Well, everything is too big to fail.
00:43:49.900 Now, all of these banks, and they've gotten wildly wealthy.
00:43:54.520 Do you know that the wealthiest on the planet, their, their, uh, wealth grew at $1.6 trillion.
00:44:05.220 Just from COVID?
00:44:10.400 Wait a minute.
00:44:11.240 Wait.
00:44:12.060 How much?
00:44:13.900 This has been a redistribution of wealth, a redistribution of power.
00:44:20.540 And you, the little guy, are expected to sit here and take it.
00:44:25.940 No.
00:44:26.920 No, you don't have to.
00:44:28.100 There are things that you can do, and we're going to talk about it in 60 seconds.
00:44:36.220 So Clifton wrote in, he's a listener of ours, and he said, Glenn, thank you so much for talking
00:44:41.360 about Relief Factor.
00:44:42.400 I am now 95% pain-free, and I feel amazing.
00:44:47.420 I plan on continuing to take Relief Factor as long as it continues to work for me.
00:44:53.240 That's exactly what you should be doing.
00:44:55.120 Nobody should be taking anything if it's not working for you.
00:44:58.480 Three-week quick start trial can get you 100%, 80%, pain-free.
00:45:05.800 I know that I still have days of pain, even though I take Relief Factor every day, but
00:45:10.840 my daily pain is gone.
00:45:14.340 That's a big deal.
00:45:16.680 Try the three-week quick start.
00:45:18.560 Get your life back.
00:45:19.720 It was developed for you, and it's $19.95.
00:45:22.480 It's a dollar a day.
00:45:23.740 Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor.
00:45:26.300 70% go on to order more.
00:45:29.000 Just like Clifton said, I'll take it as long as it works.
00:45:31.800 70% order more month after month.
00:45:34.460 It's ReliefFactor.com.
00:45:36.600 Or call 800-4-RELIEF.
00:45:39.680 800-4-RELIEF.
00:45:42.180 ReliefFactor.com.
00:45:44.260 Feel the difference.
00:45:51.560 There are some really disturbing things that are going on.
00:45:55.380 Mortgage rates are starting to go up, even though the Fed hasn't raised them yet.
00:46:01.960 Oil prices, they, think of this, November 2020, the average cost of gasoline was $2.01.
00:46:11.800 By November 2021, a year later, with Joe Biden and his cohorts, the price of gasoline was $3.40.
00:46:27.720 That's a $1.39 increase.
00:46:32.420 That's remarkable.
00:46:33.960 And it's only going to get worse.
00:46:37.580 I want to talk to you a little bit about BlackRock.
00:46:40.200 I'm doing a special tonight on The Great Reset.
00:46:43.240 And I'm going to show you how their policies are actually affecting you.
00:46:47.780 And the way you have to deal with it is locally.
00:46:52.320 You're not going to beat this on a global scale.
00:46:55.280 But I'm telling you right now, I can feel it.
00:46:59.360 As this thing is becoming exposed, more and more people are starting to take local action, state action.
00:47:07.180 And it is freaking those people out.
00:47:10.020 I don't know if you saw what BlackRock came out with yesterday, but they were like, hey, hey, we're capitalists.
00:47:15.680 This shareholder, stakeholder capitalism, it's still capitalism.
00:47:21.000 And we're not really doing all these really bad things with green energy.
00:47:26.720 Yeah, they are.
00:47:28.000 Yeah, they are.
00:47:28.900 They're panicked already.
00:47:30.680 And the word has just started to get out.
00:47:34.280 And that's the key.
00:47:36.620 Getting the word out.
00:47:38.060 I published my book last week.
00:47:39.840 I've never been in this predicament before.
00:47:43.000 This is the worst news that could happen.
00:47:45.140 There isn't a single copy available anywhere.
00:47:48.560 You have to buy it on Kindle right now because of supply chain breakdowns.
00:47:53.460 We just went through books like water.
00:47:57.300 You can't even buy it on Amazon or anything.
00:48:00.160 They've taken away the buy button now because they're so backordered.
00:48:05.040 Please get it on Kindle and share it with a friend.
00:48:09.560 Because once you share it, once you know what it is, the world unlocks.
00:48:14.560 It's the Rosetta Stone for the news.
00:48:16.840 And then what happens?
00:48:19.820 Well, let me introduce you to somebody I just read about yesterday, which I think, oh my gosh, this has come as such great news to me.
00:48:28.340 He is a representative in the State House of New Hampshire.
00:48:32.760 His name is J.D. Bernardi.
00:48:35.280 Is it Bernardi?
00:48:37.180 Bernardi.
00:48:37.740 Bernardi.
00:48:38.200 How are you doing, sir?
00:48:39.900 I'm doing great.
00:48:41.000 How are you?
00:48:41.540 I am much better after I saw what you did.
00:48:45.160 Tell me what you know about the Great Reset and what you guys in New Hampshire are doing in the State House.
00:48:53.480 Well, I learned about ESG scores a long time ago in doing investments for 401Ks.
00:49:02.460 But this past summer, I heard you really start speaking about the Great Reset and how basically an ESG score can be weaponized against companies and against individuals.
00:49:17.020 Correct.
00:49:18.020 And so once that switch went off, I said, okay, I don't know what we can do.
00:49:26.600 You know, I have no scope federally, but I'm a freshman legislator.
00:49:30.960 I said, I got to do something about this.
00:49:33.060 So I wrote a bill, and another individual in the State House wrote a bill.
00:49:40.020 Their bill was less comprehensive, but we merged the two.
00:49:44.660 I became the prime sponsor, and I just got out of the committee hearing today on it.
00:49:51.800 In fact, it's still going on with some of the other folks.
00:49:54.440 I've stepped out, but the approach that we've taken is you cannot use ESG scores in a discriminatory manner if you're a bank or if you're a corporation against another corporation or another individual.
00:50:15.320 And we took the path of you can't be discriminatory because it was more likely to withstand constitutional muster rather than just an out-and-out ban.
00:50:31.520 Right.
00:50:32.600 So if I may read, all banks and other financial institutions doing business in the state of New Hampshire, either directly or through the use of an outside contractor,
00:50:42.580 shall not discriminate against nor advocate for or cause adverse treatment of any citizen or business in their business practices based on subjective or arbitrary standards,
00:50:55.140 such as social media posts, participation or membership in any clubs, associations, or unions, etc.
00:51:01.920 Political affiliation, employer, or other social credit, environmental, social, and governance, or similar values based or impact criteria.
00:51:13.380 No provision of this law shall interfere with the bank's other financial institutions' ability to discontinue or refuse to conduct business with an individual account holder or potential customer
00:51:21.660 when such action is necessary for the physical safety of its employees.
00:51:24.560 What they're saying is these ESG scores are going to make these banks that write loans to people who disagree with them, or the ESG score,
00:51:36.200 that is going to make the bank vulnerable to a collapse.
00:51:41.520 So how does this get around that kind of thinking?
00:51:46.580 No, no, no, this is just business.
00:51:48.060 We know what's coming.
00:51:49.500 And it's going to make these banks very, very vulnerable.
00:51:52.240 Well, the banking industry's representative was there testifying today.
00:52:00.280 They're concerned that they're going to be open for multiple lawsuits.
00:52:07.140 And, of course, they will be potentially arbitrary and whatnot.
00:52:12.980 And I didn't have an opportunity to respond to that.
00:52:19.000 But I think, as with all laws where discrimination standards have been set,
00:52:28.020 that they invite a certain amount of legal activity that the courts then basically adjudicate.
00:52:39.060 And finally, we come to a settled standard of what this means.
00:52:43.520 And it's been easy to administer once the ground rules are well set.
00:52:52.880 We're talking to State House Representative J.D. Bernardi, and he is in New Hampshire.
00:53:00.640 He has introduced a bill.
00:53:02.700 How concerned are you?
00:53:04.180 I mean, obviously enough, you put a bill together.
00:53:06.320 But give people in other legislatures or other cities even a read on how alarming it is to you
00:53:17.080 that this ESG road is being traveled now.
00:53:24.160 What does it mean to you and to the average person?
00:53:26.620 Well, because those scores are right now essentially heavily woke.
00:53:36.340 They're very leftist in their thinking.
00:53:38.980 So climate change, many of the diversity requirements are there.
00:53:46.860 So, you know, in New Hampshire, we use a lot of natural gas and fuel oil to heat our homes
00:53:54.820 and generate electricity.
00:53:57.640 And that's true throughout New England.
00:53:59.740 If these businesses are unfavored and their ability to succeed financially is curtailed,
00:54:11.080 we're in huge trouble.
00:54:12.500 We don't have other sources of getting our electricity and heat at this point in time.
00:54:20.480 So this is universal across the country.
00:54:24.460 I mean, down south of you, your air conditioning is going to be unplugged because that's what's
00:54:29.420 going to happen down there.
00:54:32.280 It's very important that people understand that once these scores can be weaponized against
00:54:41.460 you or against companies, they are going to curtail your ability to do normal life and
00:54:49.800 businesses act like they always have in the past.
00:54:53.140 So what how difficult was it for you to take this information and share this with your
00:54:59.740 fellow representatives?
00:55:01.300 Well, on the Democrat side, there was a fair amount of conspiracy.
00:55:15.380 Yeah, it's and concern about, oh, you know, you're you're focusing on on the wokeness aspect of it.
00:55:28.760 But once you can articulate, look, the the principles that are being advanced in these ESG scores are are being articulated in the world economic form by Bank of America,
00:55:42.880 by JPMorgan Chase, by all the the big players in the financial world who can control so much money or investment in in the stocks of S&P and whatnot.
00:55:58.480 It's very clear that that they have the ability to forward that point of view and drive these decisions the way they want them without understanding the incredible harm they're going to do.
00:56:15.080 I have to tell you that every day I get up and I wonder, I'm sure you do to everybody does what I do.
00:56:25.500 Does it make a difference?
00:56:26.620 And every day I wonder if anyone is going to take the information and do something about it because they have different skill set than I have.
00:56:38.040 I can't tell you how just pleased I am that that you have taken these steps and that others in New Hampshire are taking these these steps.
00:56:52.820 You are a first that I know of, although it is starting to trickle out now and then just the last couple of days.
00:57:00.640 But you're the first that I know of.
00:57:02.600 And every state should be talking to you and looking at your bill and seeing how they can make it constitutionally even stronger.
00:57:11.120 But I am I am very grateful for the opportunity my children will have to be able to live free.
00:57:18.300 Thank you.
00:57:18.860 Well, I'm very grateful that that you are this beacon of information for us that we can then pick up and take our talents and use and advance as as need be.
00:57:34.340 And I welcome any of the legislators from any of the states who want to to get this bill for me.
00:57:42.680 That's fine.
00:57:43.260 Or they can contact the Heartland Institute as well.
00:57:46.180 We're working with with with those folks and they have this bill and they're helping us advance it as well.
00:57:53.480 God bless you.
00:57:53.960 Thank you so much.
00:57:55.040 Appreciate it.
00:57:56.020 Thank state state representative from New Hampshire.
00:57:59.000 Dr. J.D. Burnaby or Bernard Bernardi.
00:58:02.860 I don't know why I can.
00:58:05.120 I'm the worst.
00:58:06.200 The Hall of Fame broadcaster.
00:58:07.820 Hall of Fame.
00:58:07.960 How does that happen?
00:58:09.520 You may be a beacon of information, but you can't pronounce things.
00:58:12.120 I mean, here's the thing.
00:58:13.460 Here's the thing.
00:58:14.060 Here's the thing.
00:58:15.260 I believe in the multiverse.
00:58:16.860 Someplace there is a multiverse where I where it makes sense that I'm in the Hall of Fame.
00:58:21.840 Oh, OK.
00:58:22.700 This just doesn't happen to be it.
00:58:24.020 I would love to visit there.
00:58:24.980 Yeah.
00:58:25.160 All right.
00:58:27.900 Back in just a second.
00:58:30.000 Make no mistake.
00:58:31.520 The country is being eased into the Great Reset, by the way, by the Kindle book.
00:58:37.020 Now you can go to Glenn's new book dot com and get the Kindle version.
00:58:41.980 It is the electronic version is the only version you can get right now due to the supply chain.
00:58:46.700 Please, please read this book and pass it on.
00:58:49.620 What he said is absolutely true.
00:58:52.700 Once you understand it, then the world changes.
00:58:57.480 The world changes.
00:58:58.180 All right.
00:58:59.640 The world is being led into the Great Reset, and it's going to cause disaster after disaster after disaster.
00:59:08.180 Look at what's happening with inflation right now.
00:59:10.160 You cannot have centralized control like this and not have inflation, supply chain shortages, all of these things.
00:59:19.440 So what are you doing?
00:59:21.220 Instead of just complaining about it, let's do something about it.
00:59:25.120 Right off the bat, do you have emergency food?
00:59:28.240 Do you have enough money?
00:59:30.180 I mean, sorry, enough food in your house that if there is significant food chain shortages?
00:59:36.460 I mean, look at the store, the grocery store shelves.
00:59:38.660 I've never seen this in my life.
00:59:41.380 I mean, this is like living in the Soviet Union.
00:59:43.600 Honestly, I mean, it's not.
00:59:45.480 I mean, it's still much better.
00:59:46.840 But in comparison to where America used to be, I've never seen this in my life.
00:59:53.680 And it could get really bad really fast.
00:59:58.240 Right now, you can save $50 on their popular four-week emergency food kit at preparewithglenn.com.

01:00:31.020 10-second station ID.
01:00:40.380 So, the Great Reset bill is starting to move forward in certain states.
01:00:51.140 We're going to talk to the state treasurer in West Virginia that has just now stopped doing business with BlackRock because of the Great Reset.
01:01:00.540 And we have somebody to call Texas on the carpet.
01:01:04.620 They've already passed a bill.
01:01:08.120 The governor signed it.
01:01:09.260 Stop all business with BlackRock and divest all state funds from BlackRock.
01:01:17.520 BlackRock is now courting the legislature and the governor here in Texas.
01:01:24.380 And we're not doing anything.
01:01:25.960 We've already signed it into law.
01:01:28.320 The governor's already signed it.
01:01:29.600 And we won't divest now because, well, I mean, BlackRock is saying some, you know, maybe they'll go a little easier on Texas.
01:01:37.980 No.
01:01:39.260 No.
01:01:41.140 Well, the book is out.
01:01:42.920 You can't really buy it anywhere except on Kindle.
01:01:44.900 So, please buy it on Kindle.
01:01:46.520 But you do have a special tonight where you're going to go into this in a lot of depth.
01:01:52.020 Is it commercial free?
01:01:53.660 Commercial free tonight.
01:01:54.780 Wow.
01:01:55.000 And it's a full hour at the chalkboard.
01:01:58.220 I'm going to go through all of the highlights.
01:02:01.060 It's a good primer.
01:02:03.040 So, if you don't, if you haven't gotten the book yet or you don't really understand it yet, I think this will really help you.
01:02:10.440 I'm going to try to break it down and really try to explain in the simplest, easiest terms, not just what it means for corporations, not just what it means for, you know, small businesses.
01:02:22.460 But what does it mean to you?
01:02:25.080 How is this going to affect your life?
01:02:28.160 Because that's the key.
01:02:31.160 You know, when we were talking about wokeness, when Coca-Cola said, hey, let's teach people to be less white.
01:02:39.760 But people cared, but not like they cared when they realized this is being taught to my children.
01:02:48.300 Tonight, I hope to bring that to you.
01:02:51.080 Tonight, I hope to show you the world that your children will live in.
01:02:55.740 The things that will happen to you in your own home in the next couple of years, if this isn't stopped and ways for you to stop it.

01:04:15.940 When I started saying that, it was more of a prompting and I didn't exactly know what it meant.
01:04:21.420 I know what it means now and ways you can do it.
01:04:24.940 It means you can't be reliant upon the things that are unreliable or unreliable because of the people or the philosophies involved.

01:05:26.640 The promo code is The Great Reset.
01:05:41.540 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:43.880 It is truly a wonder to watch the global elites and the media and the politicians that have tried to push off the Great Reset as no big deal.
01:05:55.660 Nothing to see.
01:05:56.520 It's you know, it's it's just a conspiracy.
01:05:59.240 It's from the World Economic Forum.
01:06:01.360 It's no big deal.
01:06:02.460 They don't have any power.
01:06:04.460 Really?
01:06:04.940 Really?
01:06:06.080 When we first started calling this out, that was the first line of attack.
01:06:10.860 We were conspiracy theorists.
01:06:13.140 We believe the World Economic Forum was some master cabal that, you know, they're having star chamber meetings.
01:06:18.460 And none of those things are true.
01:06:20.300 None of those things are true.
01:06:21.300 None of those things are what we said.
01:06:22.620 They're not calling shots from some evil underground lair.
01:06:27.020 They have connections with the most powerful people, the richest and most politically powerful people in the world.
01:06:35.300 And they meet at Davos.
01:06:37.520 It's just that.
01:06:38.880 And they're like minded.
01:06:40.380 So all that people were saying at the beginning was that this is a conspiracy theory.
01:06:48.540 It's not this week from all over the globe.
01:06:52.440 But they are speaking at the Davos World Economic Forum.
01:06:57.420 And tonight, coincidentally, we are airing a commercial free special on the Great Reset.
01:07:04.400 The same week, the Economic Forum is trying to sell their agenda.
01:07:08.100 I'm going to show you what that agenda is really all about.
01:07:12.180 And I find it interesting that it's the same voices that are still saying conspiracy theory or diminish what's going on.
01:07:20.220 I want to give you a quote from Jack Dorsey from Twitter.
01:07:23.780 Yesterday, he tweeted out,
01:07:26.100 The amount of attention World Economic Forum receives is inversely proportional to the organization's usefulness.
01:07:33.220 It's useless.
01:07:35.680 Really?
01:07:36.240 If it's useless, why are you spending the time tweeting about it?
01:07:42.960 If it truly is useless, I mean, you know, pigs in a blanket, really highly overrated breakfast food.
01:07:52.160 They're useless.
01:07:53.860 Well, I'm not making that tweet because pigs in a blanket are really not an important breakfast food.
01:08:00.440 Not everybody's talking about that.
01:08:02.620 But deep thoughts by Jack.
01:08:06.420 Eye boogers.
01:08:08.180 They're pointless.
01:08:09.380 They're annoying.
01:08:10.540 They're useless.
01:08:11.540 The World Economic Forum is not useless.
01:08:14.820 If you look just at who is speaking, Xi Jinping was the lead speaker earlier this week.
01:08:23.660 The president of China.
01:08:26.100 If you look at the number of prime ministers, central bank people, gigantic corporations, BlackRock alone has more money and holds more investment money than any other anything on the planet.
01:08:42.480 The president makes the queen looks like a pauper.
01:08:46.280 They are at the World Economic Forum and they are helping design the policy.
01:08:52.260 Let me give you an example of what the World Economic Forum really is.
01:08:55.480 Do you remember back in the 1970s, there was something called the Heritage Foundation?
01:09:04.860 It's still out.
01:09:06.860 But in the 1970s, the Heritage Foundation came along and it was founded to redirect America's principles back to conservative principles and the founding.
01:09:17.540 And in the 70s, the left ignored it.
01:09:21.260 They laughed.
01:09:22.660 Oh, we got this in the bag.
01:09:24.320 Jimmy Carter.
01:09:25.440 I mean, we're we're fine.
01:09:27.000 Something happened.
01:09:28.840 These people were were thinking, planning, strategizing and connecting with people who had power and a new vision.
01:09:40.800 Ronald Reagan won in a landslide, much because of the Heritage Foundation.
01:09:49.140 It kicked off 12 years of Republican control in the White House.
01:09:54.140 That's the Heritage Foundation.
01:09:56.720 OK, that was well funded back in the 70s, but not like the World Economic Forum.
01:10:01.940 It had connections, but not like the World Economic Forum.
01:10:05.860 The World Economic Forum, a global think tank that is injecting 21st century fascism directly onto elected officials and global financial and corporate juggernauts.
01:10:21.000 Imagine if the Heritage Foundation had the eyes and ears of every prime minister and president in the world.
01:10:29.700 The vast majority of not only the corporate leaders, but the corporate boards and all of the major financial institutes, including the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the European Central Bank, the Japanese Central Bank, the American Central Bank.
01:10:49.200 Do you think that the world would be the same if the Heritage Foundation had that group of people in the 1970s?
01:11:00.860 No.
01:11:02.440 No, we would be a radically different country.
01:11:06.920 So, Jack, as much as I appreciate your opinion, it's ridiculous to think that these people are worthless.
01:11:15.240 Really?
01:11:15.560 How come all of these billionaires and trillionaires are all making their way to the do they just really love skiing together that much?
01:11:27.180 I don't think so.
01:11:29.540 Jason's with us.
01:11:30.280 He's our head writer, head researcher.
01:11:33.720 And there's a couple of things I want to talk to you about.
01:11:36.260 First of all, the special, because you hadn't read the book.
01:11:39.400 You know, you weren't involved in the research.
01:11:42.300 I mean, some of the research, but you weren't on the day to day, you know, working on the book.
01:11:47.040 You read the book.
01:11:48.300 What was your takeaway?
01:11:50.420 My takeaway is I think back to what over a year ago when I first brought this in and we're like, what the heck is this?
01:11:57.920 This is probably something we should look at.
01:11:59.240 And we started like in little chunks, just exposing things in chunks.
01:12:03.260 Banks, ESG, corporations.
01:12:05.340 Those were like multiple different shows.
01:12:07.820 And after I read the book or while I was reading the book, I was like, this is the first time I've ever seen all of those pieces put together, but in an easy to understand way.
01:12:17.220 Because, I mean, we were trying.
01:12:19.860 It's hard to explain this stuff easily.
01:12:21.740 It's really hard.
01:12:22.700 And it was about a year and a half ago when you first, I don't remember what you stumbled on, but you were like, have you ever heard of the Great Reset?
01:12:29.860 And it was the time that I was questioning Build Back Better, going, what the hell?
01:12:33.780 That's the worst slogan I've ever heard.
01:12:36.240 And that is the slogan from the World Economic Forum that everybody's using all around the world.
01:12:40.660 I didn't know that they were.
01:12:42.040 I thought that was a Joe Biden thing.
01:12:43.680 Yeah.
01:12:44.360 And it wasn't.
01:12:45.340 And I remember you, I don't remember what you brought to me, but I remember thinking, this is really important.
01:12:52.680 This explains a lot.
01:12:54.940 Do you remember that?
01:12:55.560 Yeah.
01:12:55.980 It was probably when we were looking through just a bunch of quotes because everyone was talking about the World Economic Forum, Great Reset, as being something positive.
01:13:03.820 But then we would pull little quotes and it would say, we're redefining capitalism.
01:13:07.660 Other quotes is, you will own nothing and you'll like it.
01:13:10.700 Right.
01:13:10.880 You'll be happy.
01:13:11.360 And we're like, what?
01:13:12.660 Like, redefining capitalism.
01:13:15.020 And then we started looking into stakeholder capitalism.
01:13:17.200 And what the heck does that even mean?
01:13:19.680 But the book really goes into explaining that in a very, very easy way.
01:13:24.040 And tonight, if you've already read the book, you're going to watch the show.
01:13:28.620 And this is going to be almost like a Cliffs version for that.
01:13:31.700 So if there's things that you didn't understand, tonight you're going to fully understand.
01:13:35.360 If there's things that you wanted a little bit more clarification on, like more examples.
01:13:40.060 Like, for instance, tonight, you know, you talked about in the book a lot how ESG is, you know, being used to force companies and banks, you know, to redirect money into places that they want or issues that they want.
01:13:52.080 Tonight, we're going to show you exactly how.
01:13:54.040 And we've showed you a little bit of this in other shows.
01:13:56.960 But the context that it's in now tonight, it's all going to crystallize.
01:14:01.460 You are going to completely understand what this is about.
01:14:04.280 You are going to completely understand how they are doing it.
01:14:06.780 It is vital to watch tonight.
01:14:08.300 So tonight, like Jason just said, it is vital to watch.
01:14:12.600 We are doing this.
01:14:13.580 I mean, you can't get the book.
01:14:16.200 Amazon and everywhere else, they've taken the buy button off because they're so far behind in printing.
01:14:22.820 You can't.
01:14:23.320 The only way to get it is a digital copy through Kindle.
01:14:26.080 I urge you, please get a copy of the book.
01:14:30.400 I am not for digital copies.
01:14:33.700 I don't like reading.
01:14:35.080 I read things on digital.
01:14:36.360 But if I if it's important, I always have it because it's easier to remember when you have the tactile book in front of you and notes and notes.
01:14:46.340 Yeah.
01:14:46.520 So it's I urge you to get the book, but please buy the Kindle book.
01:14:51.540 We don't have time to waste.
01:14:53.400 This is the worst situation we could have imagined where you can't even get it.
01:14:57.620 But I noticed that this is taking off faster than anything else we have ever exposed.
01:15:06.720 Amazing.
01:15:06.840 Yeah, it is.
01:15:08.220 I mean, there are already things that are happening.
01:15:10.760 I'm going to talk to the two people.
01:15:13.260 One, West Virginia.
01:15:14.760 I think it's the state treasurer who is now they're they're divesting from BlackRock.
01:15:20.080 And next hour, also, I'm talking to somebody here in Texas because we already signed a bill.
01:15:27.800 The governor signed it here in Texas to divest from BlackRock.
01:15:32.040 And now they're not doing it.
01:15:33.740 I want to hold the politicians feet to the fire.
01:15:36.080 What the hell is happening there?
01:15:37.760 But have you noticed a change in the BlackRock attitude even in the last week?
01:15:44.000 Oh, just just in some of the that one instance you talk about in Texas, the way that they're wording things now.
01:15:50.520 They're not as they're not puffing their chest out as much before.
01:15:53.700 Correct.
01:15:53.800 Because they had no one to stand against them and no one was questioning anything.
01:15:57.260 Correct.
01:15:57.780 But now they're like, oh, no, no, we're not going to put you out of business.
01:16:01.200 You know, this is just something that bullcrap.
01:16:03.580 Right.
01:16:04.160 Bullcrap.
01:16:04.560 Right.
01:16:04.860 Here's this.
01:16:05.920 This came out.
01:16:07.180 This just came out from BlackRock, from Larry Fink, who's the head of BlackRock.
01:16:11.720 So, you know, and you'll understand this in the book and on the special.
01:16:15.220 BlackRock is the biggest investment firm in the world.
01:16:19.400 They have seven or ten trillion dollars under management just themselves.
01:16:26.260 But when you add the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve, you're you're approaching thirty trillion dollars that they directly affect.
01:16:35.920 That's massive.
01:16:37.660 Nobody's ever been like that.
01:16:39.120 They're also the only Western group to ever be allowed in to China to do investing as well.
01:16:47.640 It's a it's very bad.
01:16:49.580 Anyway, so he just wrote Larry Fink just wrote when my partners and I founded BlackRock starting thirty four years ago.
01:16:54.940 We had no experience running a company over the last three decades.
01:16:58.200 I've had the opportunity to talk with countless CEOs and learn what distinguishes were truly great companies time and time again.
01:17:04.460 They all share what we have a clear sense of purpose, consistent values, and crucially, they recognize the importance of engaging with and delivering for their key stakeholders.
01:17:14.960 This is the foundation of stakeholder capitalism.
01:17:20.060 Stakeholder capitalism is not about politics.
01:17:24.020 It's not a social or ideological agenda.
01:17:27.500 It's not woke.
01:17:28.920 It's capitalism driven by mutual beneficial relationships between you, the employees, the customers, suppliers, and communities, your country, your company relies on to so they can prosper.
01:17:42.800 This is the power of capitalism.
01:17:45.520 This is an out and out lie.
01:17:48.800 This this is this is this is the happiest spin you could possibly put on this pig.
01:17:58.760 This is this is lipstick that you're like, dude, man, you're still kissing a pig.
01:18:06.220 It's still a pig.
01:18:07.600 No, look how pretty she is.
01:18:09.620 It is.
01:18:10.580 It's crazy because they are now starting to defend themselves.
01:18:14.700 It hasn't happened before the the things that the opposition will do.
01:18:20.660 There's what there are trillions of dollars at stake.
01:18:25.060 I'm not suicidal.
01:18:26.980 I am in a very good mood.
01:18:29.700 I'm I'm a very good driver.
01:18:32.260 My brakes work.
01:18:34.980 There's trillions of dollars at stake and they are not going to sit idly by.
01:18:39.680 But I will tell you, local is the only thing they cannot beat local.
01:18:47.860 I'll explain more of that tonight.

01:20:27.260 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:20:39.260 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:20:42.820 We are we're really glad that you're here.
01:20:45.440 Thank you so much.
01:20:46.380 By the way, I want to talk to you about solutions here for just a second and talk to you about it in a Van Gogh sort of way or Surratt, the the painter, the famous painter where it's all little dots.
01:21:00.740 Yeah.
01:21:01.040 The Ferris Bueller painting.
01:21:02.860 OK, good.
01:21:03.660 That's how you would know.
01:21:04.360 Yes.
01:21:04.520 OK.
01:21:04.740 All right.
01:21:05.400 So when you look at one of those paintings, it's all little teeny things that make the difference.
01:21:15.100 It's all the little teeny dots all coming together.
01:21:18.520 And if and if you just isolate a dot, you'd go, I can't make a painting out of that.
01:21:23.660 I can't.
01:21:24.600 I mean, that's that's ridiculous.
01:21:26.880 Remember, this was the idea that was thought was ridiculous for television.
01:21:32.180 The lines of resolution, the the individual dots just in three colors in, you know, one thousand eighty different lines that make up a picture.
01:21:45.700 I want you to understand that's how we make these changes.
01:21:50.320 It seems impossible to do.
01:21:53.360 And it seems like that's never going to come together in a painting or a picture.
01:21:56.980 You're going to be able to transmit a live picture across the world in in little dots and lines of resolution.
01:22:06.220 Yes.
01:22:07.420 Yes.
01:22:08.880 Don't feel discouraged and don't think that things are too small.
01:22:14.480 You are the key.
01:22:16.840 You are the one that can change the world.
01:22:19.700 You just have to do exactly what you're supposed to do in your circle of influence.
01:22:26.880 Don't get frustrated.
01:22:28.440 Don't get beaten down.
01:22:30.540 You're winning.
01:22:32.280 You're winning.
01:22:35.620 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:22:38.880 Still, how have you been?
01:22:40.680 Really good, Glenn.
01:22:41.940 Any of your kids or anybody in the family have have had Omicron yet?
01:22:46.020 I mean, everybody I know of has everyone with the exception of us.
01:22:50.140 Yeah.
01:22:50.260 I don't know.
01:22:50.700 You know.
01:22:51.120 And your wife's not vaccined.
01:22:52.880 Where is she?
01:22:54.520 Forty five.
01:22:55.420 Well, you know, it's an interesting question.
01:23:00.120 So but it's interesting to see that the way this has really moved across the country.
01:23:06.380 And it is it is gone so fast.
01:23:10.560 A friend of mine who went through the entire 2020 entire 2021 didn't get it.
01:23:16.440 And then here he's like, hey, my son has COVID.
01:23:20.180 I'm like, everyone in your house has COVID.
01:23:22.460 And then, of course, everyone in his house.
01:23:24.180 I think this is such good news and nobody is presenting it this way.
01:23:28.420 The death rates are way down.
01:23:30.680 Everyone is getting it and we're towards the tail end of this version.
01:23:37.040 And I think this is really good news.
01:24:00.680 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:24:28.180 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:34.460 Hello, America.
01:24:35.520 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:37.160 Stu, I don't know if this is good news or bad news.
01:24:39.860 OK, but it's bad news.
01:24:41.960 I don't know what it is yet, but it's probably really.
01:24:44.260 Well, I want you to listen.
01:24:45.840 OK, this is the latest from the Washington Examiner.
01:24:48.880 OK, humanity can rejoice knowing that we did not go the way of the dinosaurs yesterday.
01:24:54.680 A giant asteroid, they say it's the size of a bridge, was tumbling towards Earth, a near miss, 1.2 million miles away, a near miss.
01:25:07.180 And they say we're safe.
01:25:10.320 Now, sounds good.
01:25:12.200 I mean, it does initially.
01:25:13.520 And then you think about the world we live in, and you kind of go, I was kind of rooting for the asteroid there.
01:25:24.800 Let me tell you about American financing.
01:25:26.820 Interest rate hikes are coming, maybe four of them this year, and they could happen as early as March.
01:25:32.840 That's the official word.
01:25:35.720 Already, interest rate hikes are starting to happen at the banking level, even though they're not paying more for the money.
01:25:40.700 They're making you pay more for the money.
01:25:42.740 You need to spend as little as possible on interest rates.
01:25:46.600 If you are looking to get a mortgage, it is going to get harder and harder.
01:25:50.360 Please, please call American Financing today.
01:25:53.900 You want a consolidation loan?

01:26:17.900 So, I was very excited yesterday to see that the West Virginia State Treasurer has said that they are divesting themselves from any investment of state funds in BlackRock.
01:26:36.860 If this happens and takes hold across the country, that will hurt BlackRock, and it will stop some of their crazy stuff that they're doing.
01:26:47.580 For instance, trying to stop all gas, oil, and coal.
01:26:54.780 They are going to cripple these industries.
01:26:57.960 Texas, as you'll find out here in a few minutes, Texas has already signed the bill, passed it, and then signed it.
01:27:05.140 The governor signed it, but they're not doing anything.
01:27:08.520 BlackRock is doing a tap dance, and they're not doing anything.
01:27:11.940 West Virginia, the state treasurer there, Riley Moore, announced that the investment from the Treasury is no longer going to BlackRock Investment Fund.
01:27:24.860 We have Riley Moore on the phone with us now, the state treasurer for West Virginia.
01:27:30.000 Riley, how are you, sir?
01:27:31.600 I'm doing great, Glenn, and thank you so much for having me on and allowing me to speak to you and your audience about this really important issue.
01:27:38.260 It's a real honor and a privilege to be on here.
01:27:40.980 Well, thank you very much.
01:27:42.420 I saw this news this, what was it, Monday or Tuesday, and I was thrilled to see that you guys were taking real action.
01:27:50.700 Tell me what you've done and why you did it.
01:27:52.860 Well, what we have done is we have divested the state treasury completely out of BlackRock.
01:28:03.220 And our inflows and outflows with that BlackRock fund was about $1.5 billion.
01:28:11.340 It was an overnight sweeping account that we had had with them.
01:28:14.080 And we decided, look, these people are diametrically opposed to our industries.
01:28:21.320 We want to do business with people that want to do business with us.
01:28:25.080 Look, we are an energy state.
01:28:26.560 We do coal.
01:28:27.560 We do natural gas.
01:28:28.900 We're not going to pay BlackRock to destroy our industries, right?
01:28:33.020 I mean, they have this crazy net zero goal out there, and they are hurting our industries incredibly, along with a lot of these other financial institutions, which I can go into.
01:28:46.160 Because at one point on your show, I do listen.
01:28:50.220 You touched on the letter that we had sent out to all the big banks here in the United States as well.
01:28:57.600 So this, we are putting words into action, which is what more elected officials need to do in this country.
01:29:07.160 And people need to look to the states to stand up and fight, or we are going to get buried by this.
01:29:13.800 And we're not going to be able to dig ourselves out.
01:29:15.840 But I can't tell you how happy I am to hear this from you, Riley.
01:29:21.980 Tell me, let's start with the banks first, because you sent that letter out to the banks.
01:29:27.680 Tell people what you've done and what their state should also do.
01:29:32.200 What we have done is we have – there's 15 state treasurers, and this is on my website, by the way, moreforwv.com if you want to see the letter.
01:29:44.720 And 15 state treasurers, we formed a coalition, which I am leading that coalition, and we are reforming our banking contracts in all of our states.
01:29:55.580 Here in West Virginia, when we go through that process, a bank is going to have to certify that they are not boycotting the fossil fuel industry.
01:30:05.040 If they cannot meet that certification, they will be ineligible for a banking contract here in the state of West Virginia.
01:30:11.620 The other states on that letter, they are going through their processes to do the exact same thing and put the screws on all these people.
01:30:19.800 I mean, this is multilayered in terms of the threat that it causes, not only to the citizen, because at the end of the day, without coal and gas, your utility bill is going up.
01:30:31.700 The companies aren't paying this.
01:30:33.640 You're going to pay for it.
01:30:35.080 Secondarily, it hurts our energy independence and makes us more reliable on foreign resources.
01:30:41.920 Why would we want that in America?
01:30:43.880 We had energy independence.
01:30:46.080 So all of us are coming collectively to push back on this.
01:30:49.060 This BlackRock announcement, I will tell your audience, this is just step one.
01:30:54.880 You're going to hear a lot more of this coming out of my office in the coming months of other contracts.
01:31:01.540 We're going to move on.
01:31:04.060 Thank you.
01:31:05.860 Thank you.
01:31:06.680 Thank you for taking this seriously and actually taking concrete steps.
01:31:11.240 It is going to take people like you and people that vote in West Virginia to actually take a stand.
01:31:19.640 There's no way to fight this on the international level.
01:31:23.640 It is so far gone.
01:31:25.120 But if you start hitting them in the pocket and you also and I want to ask you about this with the state, with the banks, you're specifically talking about the the planet and Green New Deal and everything else.
01:31:41.220 That's only the E out of ESG.
01:31:44.000 Are you concerned about the full package of social justice and governance as well?
01:31:53.540 Absolutely, we are.
01:31:54.860 And as I said, this is step one.
01:31:57.220 These are our first steps right now.
01:31:59.860 We got to do everything we can to save these industries, because I will tell you, I've had coal operators, not only in West Virginia, but all over this country and natural gas guys as well come in and say, we are losing access to capital.
01:32:13.080 I would urge your listening audience here, go Google the top biggest banks and look up their ESG policy frameworks.
01:32:23.460 This isn't hidden now.
01:32:24.780 It is out in the public, and it's in black and white, and it says we are going to deny loans, a presumptive denial to any industry that is involved in the fossil fuel extraction industries.
01:32:38.440 That is an outright denial in this.
01:32:41.860 And that, in the end of the day, what is it about?
01:32:45.960 Control.
01:32:46.940 They are trying to control us in West Virginia and around this country, and we're not going to take it anymore.
01:32:53.800 And I tell you, this has been going on for decades in West Virginia.
01:32:58.000 This is a state, just think about this, these are the same folks that sold us on globalization.
01:33:07.760 Hey, listen, you're going to get all your goods cheaper, and it's going to make your towns and cities better.
01:33:13.360 Well, guess what?
01:33:14.420 Globalization happened, and these long-stretched supply chains, we lost our jobs.
01:33:18.560 Walmarts came in and took over.
01:33:21.040 All our small businesses got decimated in all of our towns, and now they're coming back for our jobs.
01:33:27.560 The last jobs that we have, they're coming back for our jobs.
01:33:30.820 And if they come and take these coal mining and gas jobs, what are we left with?
01:33:34.360 Working at Walmart.
01:33:35.940 It's like we're indentured to these people, and we're not going to take it anymore.
01:33:40.260 I love you.
01:33:41.060 I will tell you that West Virginia is one of my favorite states, and also because of the history.
01:33:49.700 You guys have a history of standing up for what is right.
01:33:55.840 I mean, you were part of Virginia, and the Civil War starts, and you were like, I don't want anything to do with that.
01:34:02.460 And you went and became West Virginia.
01:34:05.900 You guys have stood the test of time, and you also are the quintessential, when you think of the hard-working, hard-living American worker, it really is embodied in West Virginia.
01:34:26.640 I can't believe that West Virginia has taken it for this long.
01:34:34.280 It's like Texas.
01:34:35.240 We're still screwing around in Texas.
01:34:37.600 I don't know why, but we're still playing footsies with BlackRock.
01:34:41.440 We should be divesting.
01:34:42.480 I saw they passed that bill, and we have an additional, because I want more coming out of here.
01:34:48.520 We have a bill that just passed out of Senate Energy.
01:34:51.360 We're actually in session here right now in the state legislature.
01:34:55.560 Bill passed out of Senate Energy.
01:34:57.680 We're going to have a bill that is going to publicly list these financial institutions that are prohibited from banking in West Virginia.
01:35:04.980 Because the people of West Virginia, they want to know.
01:35:06.800 They're asking me, what banks are you talking about?
01:35:09.720 Now, obviously, for liability purposes, I'm not necessarily going to name all of these banks right now.
01:35:16.000 Here, I'll tell you what.
01:35:16.900 I'll do some work for you.
01:35:19.400 Name the five biggest banks in America.
01:35:21.900 The five biggest banks in America.
01:35:24.220 We know that the Federal Reserve is just a coalition of the five biggest banks.
01:35:30.860 They're the biggest banks.
01:35:32.440 They're ones that cannot fail.
01:35:34.300 Don't take my word for it.
01:35:36.400 Just go do your own homework on their own websites and look up their ESG policies for environmental, social justice, and governance scores.
01:35:46.860 They all have them.
01:35:49.140 If they have them, divest.
01:35:52.460 Get out of those banks and go to a local bank.
01:35:56.540 And I will tell you, there are banks that I have talked to.
01:35:59.560 They're not the top five, but they're not too far down from there that are saying, thank you for doing this.
01:36:05.620 Now, we can go back to our board and our shareholders and say, listen, there's risk on the other side of this, too.
01:36:13.640 And at the end of the day, all we want is a bank to act like a bank.
01:36:18.320 Assess risk.
01:36:19.520 Assess capital.
01:36:20.480 If it's a bad loan, don't make the loan.
01:36:22.820 But if you go all the way down the road here on this, where we're going to potentially end up, what could potentially happen is, let's say you go in for a home loan 10 years from now or whatever, and it says, well, here's one interest rate if you have solar panels on your house.
01:36:39.440 Here's another interest rate if you don't.
01:36:41.680 They are trying to control our behavior.
01:36:44.280 And, look, we don't want what they want, and what we want is to be free to make our own decisions, work our own jobs.
01:36:53.680 And you touched on it, you know, these hardworking folks in West Virginia.
01:36:58.100 The average coal miner is making nearly $90,000 a year.
01:37:02.900 These are great-paying jobs.
01:37:05.200 People don't realize that.
01:37:06.560 They think we're throwing people down a mine shaft somewhere.
01:37:09.440 No, they love these jobs.
01:37:10.740 You know what are bad jobs?
01:37:12.060 They're working over in the Democratic Republic of Congo and mining cobalt for the electronic batteries that go in the electronic cars.
01:37:21.840 They've got slave labor essentially going on over there, and China's running those mines, by the way.
01:37:26.640 You know, it's really interesting you bring this up, Riley.
01:37:28.700 We're talking to Riley Moore, West Virginia's 25th state treasurer.
01:37:32.740 He was elected in 2020 and is taking a hard stand against ESG scores, the Great Reset, and BlackRock in particular.
01:37:40.260 It is fascinating to me that people will say, well, if you're not going to invest in BlackRock, I mean, they're the biggest ones out there.
01:37:48.400 I mean, they're making money hand over fist, yada, yada, yada.
01:37:50.860 But they're also empowering China and literal slavery, and it doesn't seem to matter to anyone.
01:37:59.340 No, you don't hear the left talk about this at all.
01:38:02.640 I mean, there is a literal genocide going on with the Uyghur population over in China.
01:38:09.100 If people have not read about this, they are in concentration camps, essentially, working and building all the components that get sent back here to the United States, meanwhile, by taking our jobs.
01:38:20.960 We have to get away from it.
01:38:23.980 And the scariest thing is the U.S. and the Chinese economy are decoupling right now, but China is decoupling faster from us than we are them.
01:38:35.260 China knows what time it is.
01:38:37.220 They got a plan.
01:38:38.560 We don't have a plan.
01:38:40.020 One last question.
01:38:44.100 When I first started talking about this about a year ago, a year and a half ago, I was immediately, you know, conspiracy theorist, et cetera, et cetera.
01:38:52.140 The banks denied it.
01:38:53.920 Are you having any problem making this case now, Riley, because it's so transparent?
01:38:58.180 It's all out in the open now.
01:39:00.420 You know, it's becoming easier now because of programs like yours.
01:39:04.060 But I will tell you, not everybody is talking about this, and people really need to tune into this and be aware of it because you can vote with your money.
01:39:12.800 You can vote with your money, whether it's your 401K or otherwise.
01:39:15.660 Talk to your money managers.
01:39:17.440 There are also companies out here, money managers, that are coming up with these portfolios called ex-China, where they're invested in emerging markets that are not China.
01:39:28.560 People, the market is actually speaking.
01:39:31.060 It's the people that are speaking because they don't want this anymore.
01:39:35.380 So because of programs like yours, it's added, thank God, validity to what I'm doing because when I first started talking about this, people thought I was crazy.
01:39:45.120 You know, I got the tinfoil hat on, and I'm a conspiracy theorist.
01:39:49.100 And then as soon as Biden got elected, it was one month into it, coal companies and gas companies coming in and saying, we are in trouble.
01:39:57.020 We're going to lose access to capital.
01:39:58.820 We don't know what we're going to do.
01:40:01.060 And then we heard that John Kerry is going around and pressuring banks to divest at the same time.
01:40:09.380 So there's this extra legal channels being made to pressure them.
01:40:14.320 And who are they pushing on?
01:40:15.460 The Googles, the Facebooks, and all of them.
01:40:18.060 If this bank doesn't divest, then we'll get Googles and Facebook to leave.
01:40:23.300 And it's an entirely coordinated effort going on out there.
01:40:29.620 And how soon will it be where we, as individuals, like in China, get ESG scores?
01:40:36.680 When will ESG be part of your credit score?
01:40:40.100 Soon.
01:40:40.560 To be able to buy a home, credit card, anything.
01:40:43.260 If we don't stop it, it will happen soon.
01:40:46.320 Riley Moore, the West Virginia State Treasurer.
01:40:48.780 I wish I was in your state.
01:40:51.580 Live there so I could vote for you.
01:40:52.880 You're fantastic.
01:40:54.320 Riley Moore, West Virginia State Treasurer.
01:40:56.260 Thank you.
01:40:57.020 Please let us know anything we can do to help.
01:41:00.900 God bless.
01:41:01.600 All right.
01:41:05.620 Do you remember the time when you actually really kind of felt good?
01:41:09.840 You had a spring in your step and you're like, I can't wait to start the day.
01:41:12.980 Yeah, me neither.
01:41:14.380 But right now, sometimes it's hard to get from point A to point B because it feels like you're
01:41:21.080 just in this thick mud of pain and aches and everything else.
01:41:26.460 Tanya threw out her back.
01:41:28.220 She's going in for a procedure tomorrow.
01:41:31.920 But she, like four of her discs just went out and she did nothing.
01:41:36.960 And it's like, she's like, well, what happened?
01:41:39.640 And I'm like, I know, right?
01:41:41.400 As you start to get old, you know, you used to have a story.
01:41:44.420 Oh, yeah.
01:41:45.440 Oh, I've, you know, I hurt my back when I was young.
01:41:48.520 I fell out of a second story window.
01:41:50.740 It's a great story.
01:41:52.440 Now I picked up a pencil.
01:41:54.820 That's not good.

01:42:25.800 Do you love that guy or what?
01:42:37.960 It's nice to hear someone who actually seems to be doing it, not just saying it.
01:42:41.660 Yeah, and at last hour we talked to somebody in New Hampshire that is doing the same thing.
01:42:49.940 Left a meeting in the statehouse where they are trying to ban these ESG scores and put the banks on notice.
01:42:56.820 You're not to do this here.
01:42:57.940 This is all part of the Great Reset.
01:43:00.040 Please get the new book.
01:43:01.500 You can find it at GlensNewBook.com.
01:43:03.800 Right now the only version you can buy is a Kindle version.
01:43:07.020 I don't even know if you can pre-order it anymore.
01:43:08.840 It's so far backed up.
01:43:11.400 But please get the digital version, the Kindle version.
01:43:15.640 You can get it now.
01:43:17.440 Also, tonight we're doing a special on this.
01:43:20.800 Now, we've just gone from Riley Moore, state treasurer, who said,
01:43:25.640 not only are we putting BlackRock on notice, we're divesting, what did he say,
01:43:30.260 a billion and a half dollars from our treasury funds that we had invested through BlackRock.
01:43:35.620 We're pulling all of that money out.
01:43:38.720 But we're going further.
01:43:40.180 We're also going to the banks.
01:43:41.600 Here in Texas, we also passed a law that said we're divesting from BlackRock.
01:43:48.840 The governor signed it.
01:43:51.500 I called yesterday to find out why hasn't any of this been done.
01:43:56.020 I can't get anyone from the state of Texas to give me an answer.
01:44:00.260 Now, I'm going to beat this drum until we get the governor or the state treasurer or somebody
01:44:06.420 that knows what are we doing with BlackRock?
01:44:09.920 Why are we playing footsie with them?
01:44:12.140 The word is, is that BlackRock's like, well, well, you know, we can work things out.
01:44:16.020 I mean, let's, you know, we're not going to be so tough on, you know, oil and gas.
01:44:21.580 No, zero, no, no money, none.
01:44:25.420 You cannot compromise with people who are untrustworthy.
01:44:29.640 No.
01:44:30.960 And I want an answer from the great state of Texas.
01:44:34.080 What the hell?
01:44:34.900 What?
01:44:35.920 What's happening to Texas?
01:44:38.240 You're either part of the solution or you're part of the problem.
01:44:41.420 No more fence sitting.
01:44:43.380 Which side are you on?
01:44:44.760 You've passed it.
01:44:45.540 You've signed it.
01:44:46.300 Good.
01:44:47.400 So why aren't you doing it?
01:44:49.160 Or are they doing it?
01:44:50.320 And we don't know.
01:44:50.940 And if they're doing it, then I will be the first to say congratulations, Texas.
01:44:55.780 But I'd like to be able to get somebody on the phone from Texas to answer.
01:45:01.740 Are you doing it?
01:45:02.800 And if not, why?
01:45:05.640 More in a second.
01:45:06.360 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:45:14.800 So a 12-year-old named Baylor lives in North Carolina.
01:45:18.660 She wrote in and she said, Glenn, Tuttle Twins books gave me the knowledge of how things work in aspects of reality like inflation.
01:45:29.040 It's a 12-year-old.
01:45:30.540 The knowledge of how things work in aspects of reality like inflation.
01:45:34.700 These books have also taught me that the federal government is too big and powerful.
01:45:39.080 They take your money and use it for anything they want, which is ridiculous if you ask me.
01:45:43.520 Wasn't one of the reasons we fought to gain freedom from England was because of taxes?
01:45:48.260 The Tuttle Twins have inspired me to become an active member in my community when I get a little older.
01:45:52.420 My gosh.
01:45:53.980 How great is that?
01:45:56.340 If you want your kids, your grandkids to understand the realities.
01:46:01.820 And understand, they've got to stand up for them.

01:46:27.680 Tonight, starting at 8 p.m. on Blaze TV.
01:46:29.800 It's Studos America.
01:46:30.660 Right into a brand new special from Glenn Beck on The Great Reset.
01:46:34.000 It's blazetv.com slash Glenn.
01:46:36.400 Tonight, 9 p.m. Eastern, on the Blaze TV channel.
01:46:50.400 You can find this only online, but you can also find it several different places, including Roku.
01:46:59.620 And what's that other place?
01:47:03.180 Pluto TV and YouTube.
01:47:08.160 And that's as far as I can go.
01:47:09.980 That's a lot.
01:47:10.740 Yeah.
01:47:11.040 A lot of availability.
01:47:12.340 I'm a subscriber.
01:47:13.440 So if you're a subscriber, watch tonight, 9 p.m., an hour commercial free on The Great Reset.
01:47:20.720 We're going to talk to you about what it actually means to you, not just corporations.
01:47:26.580 Also, Glenn, your wish is my command.
01:47:29.020 And this particular case, the state of Texas is.
01:47:33.020 Oh, exactly.
01:47:34.120 That's there.
01:47:34.760 Have they responded?
01:47:35.480 They have responded.
01:47:36.060 We just got a response in about this.
01:47:38.380 It's long and detailed, but to sort of boil it down, there are two parts of what they're saying is going on.
01:47:45.480 One is incoming new contracts.
01:47:48.860 So like new deals that they're working on.
01:47:51.540 And then the existing ones that are there.
01:47:53.780 The new ones, they're saying this is already in place.
01:47:56.220 They're already running all this through and trying to avoid, particularly as based on oil and gas, these sorts of restrictions.
01:48:03.460 So new business has already, this is already taking place.
01:48:08.380 The existing stuff that was going on, they are still looking for suitable candidates to divest into.
01:48:16.180 As they point out, the law doesn't specifically just talk about BlackRock.
01:48:20.260 It talks about all sorts of different things.
01:48:22.140 Correct.
01:48:22.160 And so you can't just, and then you shouldn't be able to just target one company in a law.
01:48:26.400 That's not a good idea.
01:48:27.240 No.
01:48:27.360 And it's, and it also shouldn't just be targeting for oil and gas.
01:48:31.160 Yes.
01:48:31.420 It should be ESG.
01:48:33.100 Right.
01:48:33.560 And so that's the real, that's the real problem.
01:48:36.220 So they're trying to come up with a longer term solution so that they can catch all of this stuff.
01:48:42.660 So that's ongoing.
01:48:44.220 They have not announced the, the, the, the details on that yet.
01:48:47.680 Let me go to Alex Epstein.
01:48:49.020 He is the president and founder, Center for Industrial Progress.
01:48:52.740 He's the author of the book, Moral Case for Fossil Fuels.
01:48:56.040 Alex, did you just hear what Stu said?
01:48:58.520 We just got a, we just got a note from the state of Texas saying we're, we're working on it.
01:49:03.320 It's just taking us a while.
01:49:04.640 We want to make sure that we have it broad enough.
01:49:08.620 You buy that?
01:49:09.700 What exactly are they working on?
01:49:10.520 Let me say, let me read it to you.
01:49:13.340 We are currently working to establish suitable candidates for the divestment list related to SB 13.
01:49:20.540 We have been tasked with examining an extremely large universe of financial companies,
01:49:24.580 and it would not be appropriate to comment on a single firm prior to releasing the full initial list of companies subject to the divestment provisions in SB 13.
01:49:33.240 Comptroller Hagar is committed to safeguarding the Texas economy and Texas jobs,
01:49:38.200 but that cannot be accomplished by narrowly focusing on one entity.
01:49:42.040 Texas lawmakers could have singled out one company, but they understood the approach would not have the impact needed to address this alarming trend.
01:49:49.260 Additionally, this issue of long-term concern for Comptroller Hagar with increased promotion of the ESG investment trend.
01:49:56.200 He has noted when discussing other efforts, including divestment lists related to companies boycotting Israel or doing business with Iran.
01:50:03.980 The agency is focused on creating a transparent and defendable process that not only reliably identifies current suitable candidate companies,
01:50:12.640 but also creates the framework for highlighting potential future future candidates.
01:50:17.880 Sounds reasonable.
01:50:19.700 Yeah, I do think that's that's reasonable.
01:50:22.660 I mean, there's a lot to discuss in terms of this legislation, which hasn't been what I'm commenting on,
01:50:28.040 because it's challenging to do something about that.
01:50:31.380 But what I'm really focused on with BlackRock is they're really trying to have it both ways.
01:50:36.360 They've gotten enormous amount of status, prestige and money by leading the movement to eliminate fossil fuels,
01:50:42.960 a.k.a. the net zero movement.
01:50:44.820 And if you look at what they say in their letters, they say this requires emissions to go down by 8 to 10 percent per year.
01:50:50.880 And that, by the way, was starting in 2020, where emissions were a lot lower than now.
01:50:54.440 So it'd have to be an even faster rate now.
01:50:56.380 And they're saying that.
01:50:57.380 But they're also saying, oh, no, we love oil and gas.
01:50:59.380 We're long term investors in oil and gas.
01:51:01.020 And my point is those two things are contradictory.
01:51:03.340 If you want to eliminate emissions, then you are going to rapidly eliminate oil and gas.
01:51:07.960 And you should take responsibility for the shortages and high prices that have occurred because of what you've done.
01:51:13.140 I'm concerned that I mean, I think targeting BlackRock and getting people to understand your if you're investing with them,
01:51:22.180 you are investing in the Great Reset and the ESG system.
01:51:26.660 But it's also not just BlackRock.
01:51:28.840 It is any banking institution, any investment firm that is using ESG scores to be able to score companies and investors.
01:51:41.920 Is it not?
01:51:43.600 Yeah, 100 percent.
01:51:45.360 And so this website I set up called EnergyTalkingPoints.com.
01:51:48.100 And if you just search ESG on that site, you'll get the information about why I think ESG is anti-development,
01:51:54.540 anti-freedom and ultimately anti-America.
01:51:57.160 And it's because it's really targeting the energy industry.
01:52:01.340 And what it's doing is it's opposing low cost, reliable energy from fossil fuels, as well as usually nuclear.
01:52:06.580 And it's promoting unreliable solar.
01:52:08.540 And what this does is it reverses the function of finance, which is supposed to be to invest capital efficiently.
01:52:14.160 It's making energy capital inefficient and energy of the industry that powers every other industry.
01:52:18.780 And so that means everything is going to be more expensive because of this ESG movement.
01:52:23.260 So I agree 100 percent.
01:52:24.260 It's bigger than BlackRock.
01:52:25.400 BlackRock just happens to have a leadership role that they're being particularly evasive of.
01:52:29.680 Correct.
01:52:30.080 And it is bigger than just oil and gas.
01:52:33.960 It is the E, the S and the G.
01:52:37.440 I mean, right now we're seeing because Davos is having their their meetings on the Great Reset this week.
01:52:44.220 And we've already heard Fauci speak about how they have to figure out a way to silence speech that they say is misleading.
01:52:55.420 He said, I don't know how we do that.
01:52:57.140 Well, one easy way is to us to use an ESG score.
01:53:01.540 They can arbitrarily say you are presenting misinformation and that your company is now posing a risk to the stability of society and we can't support you.
01:53:16.060 We can't give you loans.
01:53:17.260 We can't do transactions.
01:53:18.460 That's what's coming.
01:53:21.440 Yeah, I think I agree with that.
01:53:23.020 And it's important.
01:53:23.920 I put this in and that website.
01:53:25.260 I mentioned energy talking points dot com if you search ESG.
01:53:27.500 But I'm reading from it now.
01:53:28.740 ESG was a movement cooked up at the U.N., not exactly a leading expert in profitable investment to impose moral and political agendas, largely left wing ones, on institutions that would not adopt them if left to their own devices.
01:53:39.620 So it's really taking all these leftist ideas and is trying to impose them via corporations, often because the people are dissatisfied with the ability to get voters to support these policies.
01:53:50.840 That's the biggest thing is so disturbing as they talk about democracy, which we're not a republic.
01:53:58.760 But as they talk about democracy, this undercuts democracy.
01:54:02.620 There is this is the elites having their voice because they can't get the people to sign on to what they want to do.
01:54:15.700 Exactly.
01:54:16.240 And they will put it as, oh, we're so rational and the people are irrational.
01:54:20.640 So that's why we envy China.
01:54:22.320 We want to be able to impose whatever we want.
01:54:24.520 But my view is, with most of these things, they don't have any good arguments and certainly on energy.
01:54:28.360 They don't have any good arguments for why you should rapidly eliminate fossil fuels, not support nuclear, promote unreliable solar and wind.
01:54:36.080 These things just don't work.
01:54:37.740 They're not cost effective.
01:54:38.780 And that's going to make everything more expensive and life worse.
01:54:41.660 And what we're seeing right now is just a mere taste of it.
01:54:45.000 If you look at the European energy crisis, rising prices here, this is just a taste of what these green policies mean.
01:54:51.240 And so this should clue us into these experts don't really know what they're talking about.
01:54:55.040 If they knew what they're talking about, they would just try to persuade us and let free markets develop these amazing solutions that they claim are amazing.
01:55:02.260 Well, but they've also they've also taken things out of the mix.
01:55:06.020 For instance, the safest energy, the safest energy, the cleanest energy is nuclear.
01:55:13.040 France has it.
01:55:14.020 It's run.
01:55:14.580 It's fine.
01:55:15.360 Now they're they're shutting down.
01:55:18.000 I think.
01:55:18.400 What is it?
01:55:19.740 The 30 or 40 percent of their power plants in a test.
01:55:25.140 And it's going to cause energy prices in France to raise, they say, 40 percent in the coming months.
01:55:31.800 I mean, there's no reasoning with anyone.
01:55:35.520 They're not taking reasonable steps at all.
01:55:38.620 And instead, they're going to jack with people's lives, with their safety and also with all of their money.
01:55:47.760 The nuclear thing, I think, is a very revealing example because it doesn't involve the issue of CO2.
01:55:52.560 Nuclear doesn't emit CO2.
01:55:54.640 And as you said, it's the safest form of energy.
01:55:56.560 It's the cleanest form of energy ever devised.
01:55:58.600 And so people can claim to be concerned about CO2.
01:56:01.180 You'd expect them to love nuclear, but they don't.
01:56:03.620 And they often oppose large scale hydro as well.
01:56:05.700 And the core of this is really philosophy slash religion.
01:56:08.620 They really believe in the idea, whether they know it or not, that our goal should be to eliminate human impact on Earth, not to advance human flourishing on Earth.
01:56:16.160 And so they look at everything from that perspective.
01:56:18.120 They think, oh, nuclear is unnatural.
01:56:19.700 It has too much of an impact.
01:56:21.300 Hydro is unnatural.
01:56:22.160 It impacts free-flowing rivers.
01:56:24.020 And they're totally willing to sacrifice civilization for the god of unimpacted nature.
01:56:29.560 But that's not BlackRock.
01:56:30.860 That's not these banks.
01:56:32.820 Well, it is.
01:56:33.920 That's the interesting thing is how do you sort of integrate a bank like this with these ideals?
01:56:40.060 And I think what happens is whenever you have a certain wrong moral idea or even a right moral idea, the financial world follows it.
01:56:47.120 So we have this core moral idea in our civilization that we should be eliminating our impact on Earth.
01:56:52.260 And above all, we should be eliminating our impact on climate.
01:56:54.900 That's the most important thing.
01:56:56.540 And so what BlackRock has done, whatever their exact motives, is they're cashing in on that and saying, OK, we're going to be the leader of eliminating our impact on climate.
01:57:05.820 So regardless of what Larry thinks convictions are and how corrupt or not corrupt he is, he's pursuing an ideal that almost everyone agrees with on some level.
01:57:14.660 And I think that's why it's so powerful.
01:57:15.560 Except the people who really believe it.
01:57:18.480 I mean, what was the guy's name, Stu, we had on the air?
01:57:21.120 He used to work with BlackRock.
01:57:22.520 He was the guy who was, you know, he put the E in ESG.
01:57:26.500 And he came out and said, this whole thing is a scam.
01:57:30.020 This is all about money.
01:57:31.320 This is not about actually doing something for the environment.
01:57:36.660 Yeah, well, I think that's true for a lot of people.
01:57:39.000 There's a lot of cynicism.
01:57:40.140 And you see there's a lot of lying, like companies claiming I'm 100% renewable.
01:57:43.340 I'm going to be net zero.
01:57:44.240 This is all nonsense.
01:57:45.420 You know how energy works.
01:57:47.080 But still, what I'm focused on is there's still this moral monopoly on the idea that it's evil to impact nature.
01:57:52.520 It's evil to impact climate.
01:57:53.920 And so our focus should be eliminating our impact.
01:57:55.880 And what I'm just saying is that these profiteers, they look at that debate.
01:57:59.780 They look at that framing and they say, I'm going to make money off.
01:58:02.460 And that's why I'm focused on the philosophy and the framing versus just trying to go after these individual people.
01:58:08.560 BlackRock just happens to be so influential.
01:58:10.540 I thought they would be a good company to make an example of.
01:58:14.680 So, Alex, last question.
01:58:17.120 I mean, I feel like there is starting to be real movement on the Great Reset and some of these things.
01:58:25.280 And I know we are a million miles away because we're so far behind.
01:58:29.540 But if people wake up to it and you start speaking with your money and speaking to these institutions as states, locals and individuals, I think you can beat this.
01:58:46.800 I think so.
01:58:49.760 And I call it the great regress.
01:58:51.780 I think it's very important to put it as a progressive phenomenon.
01:58:55.220 It's really anti-progress.
01:58:57.240 And I hate the idea that regressives get called progressives.
01:59:00.140 And I think what's needed is to have a clear idea that this is evil, that it's statism, that it's a regress.
01:59:06.060 But also to have an idea of progress or, you know, being pro-liberty, having a vision for how more liberty will lead to more human flourishing.
01:59:13.680 And I just mentioned that website, energytalkingpoints.com.
01:59:15.940 If you search on that long-term value creation, I put forward a positive alternative to ESG where companies are focused on the long term without sacrificing to these leftist gods.
01:59:25.700 And I think that that's one attempt to give a positive, not just oppose the negative.
01:59:30.420 Alex Epstein, thank you so much.
01:59:31.840 God bless you.
01:59:32.360 Thanks for all of your hard work.
01:59:33.460 You bet.
01:59:33.680 We'll talk to you again.
01:59:35.020 Sponsor of this F hour is Goldline.
01:59:37.680 Inflation continues to hammer away at the U.S. economy and the value of the dollar is going down.
01:59:44.980 It's not just that you, the prices are going up.
01:59:48.200 It's the actual value of your dollar is going down.
01:59:52.460 It can't buy as much anymore.
01:59:55.280 When that happens, the central banks have to pull all of that excess money in.
02:00:00.920 Well, we have trillions of dollars floating out.
02:00:03.220 I can't imagine what the interest rate is going to be.
02:00:06.480 And they're concerned now that it will stop the heart of this economy because it is a weak recovery because we're doing things that are going against the very nature of natural law and the law of humankind.
02:00:22.020 So anyway, what do you do to hedge against it?
02:00:25.600 Well, you make sure that some of the money that you have saved and put away is not in dollars.
02:00:32.280 You make sure that some of what you have is something that will the world will eventually return to.
02:00:38.900 And it always does to gold or silver.
02:00:41.040 Right now, Goldline is offering a very unique special combining my two favorite assets.

02:01:10.520 Tonight on Glenn TV.
02:01:12.680 Despite what the far left says, we have made it through a once in a lifetime, never could have imagined a disaster, the COVID-19 pandemic.
02:01:20.100 But now what's coming next could be even worse.
02:01:22.620 Prices surging more than they have in 30 years.
02:01:26.440 And there doesn't seem to be an end in sight.
02:01:27.720 An evil plan is on our horizon that will change everything about the way you live.
02:01:32.340 And Glenn exposes it all.
02:01:33.920 The Great Reset.
02:01:34.900 Joe Biden and the rise of 21st century fascism.
02:01:37.460 Tonight, 9 p.m. Eastern on Blaze TV.
02:01:40.360 The Glenn Beck Program.
02:01:48.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
02:01:51.780 So, Glenn, what do you make of the approach of the Biden administration on Russia?
02:01:55.660 They are outwardly saying they expect them to potentially attack at any moment, and they're threatening them.
02:02:02.940 A couple of things.
02:02:03.620 If you're watching the markets in Russia, you're seeing that the market there is falling apart.
02:02:08.460 Their stock market has lost, I think, $100 billion in just a value in just, like, two days.
02:02:15.400 The markets are expecting Russia to go in.
02:02:18.860 That's not good.
02:02:19.800 They're battening down the hatches on their stock market because they know something bad is coming.
02:02:26.380 I happen to believe that something bad is coming because this administration has no credibility.
02:02:33.260 I don't understand what they're doing either.
02:02:35.660 What are you doing?
02:02:37.480 Warning that they're going to be constant?
02:02:38.780 What are you talking about?
02:02:39.580 Yeah, they're saying there are going to be severe economic consequences if they invade.
02:02:43.020 Are there? Really?
02:02:43.740 Really?
02:02:44.020 The time to stop an invasion is before the tanks roll across the border.
02:02:50.140 You don't stop Hitler once he's in Poland.
02:02:53.020 Right.
02:02:53.540 Well, I guess that's what they would say they're trying to do, right?
02:02:56.660 They're threatening these consequences before.
02:02:58.920 Vladimir Putin, we're serious about this.
02:03:01.500 That's a sovereign nation.
02:03:03.560 Take your troops and stand down.
02:03:06.060 Remove half of your troops.
02:03:08.820 There's no reason that, militarily speaking, the only thing you're positioned for is an invasion.
02:03:15.940 Take them, remove them, or sanctions begin tonight.
02:03:21.180 That's how you deal with Russia and a strong man in Putin.
02:03:26.540 All right, we'll see you tonight, 9 o'clock, only on Blaze TV.
02:03:29.640 Don't miss the Wednesday night special this week.
02:03:32.500 Commercial free, The Great Reset.
02:03:36.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
