00:00:00.000 All right. Welcome to the program today. I want to share with you that Bill O'Reilly is going to be on with us and so much more.

00:00:08.940 I want to talk to you a little bit about American financing. An uncomfortable question for you.

00:00:13.300 How many times a day would you say you pick up the phone and scroll through Facebook for at least 10 solid minutes?

00:00:19.000 Stop doing it today. Don't do that. Here's what I want you to do.

00:00:22.880 I want you to call. Take that 10 minutes and call American Financing at 800-906-2440. 800-906-2440. It's AmericanFinancing.net.

00:00:34.560 Hello, Stu. Hey, Glenn. How are you? Oh, I'm fantastic. Yeah. Yeah. Doing well. Doing. Yeah. It's good to hear.

00:00:41.460 Yeah. Just sitting in Stu's or I mean Pat's place today. Yeah. Got an interesting back of the chair situation going on there.

00:00:49.980 A little pillow action for the back of the chair today. Yeah. Just a little headrest, you know.

00:00:54.400 Yeah. Just a little headrest, but. Looks good. Yeah. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you.

00:00:58.900 It's going to be an exciting, exciting show today. It's one word for it.

00:01:02.600 We're going to start. We're going to start with Amy Clomature here in just a second. 1.00

00:01:19.980 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:32.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:36.740 Hello, America. It's Friday and we have quite a program lined up for you.

00:01:46.160 Not today, of course, probably next week at some time.

00:01:48.980 And today will be, you know, it'll be an OK show.

00:01:51.680 But wow, we've got a great show lined up for you.

00:01:54.540 It's Friday. Bill O'Reilly begins with us in just a few minutes.

00:01:58.900 Also, we begin with Amy Klobuchar.

00:02:03.280 Oh, she wants to make sure that we're all healthy.

00:02:06.840 And so now the government will decide what's misinformation and what's not.

00:02:12.620 And if you're filing misinformation or spreading it, you're going to be in trouble with your big brother.

00:02:19.540 We begin there in 60 seconds.

00:02:24.500 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:26.160 So Kent lives in Arkansas.

00:02:28.520 He writes in about his experience with Relief Factory.

00:02:30.700 He says, I've been taking Relief Factory now for about three months.

00:02:34.380 And I'm amazed at how much my pain has decreased.

00:02:38.880 Rainy weather, I would be in ridiculous pain.

00:02:41.980 Just wanting to crawl into bed and cry.

00:02:44.460 Gosh, I hope you.

00:02:45.460 OK, you live in Arkansas.

00:02:46.700 I was hoping you didn't live in Seattle.

00:02:48.820 At this writing, it's been raining all day and I feel fine.

00:02:52.840 Before Relief Factory, I never had a day when something didn't hurt.

00:02:57.640 Now, most days, I have great quality of life.

00:03:00.400 Thank you so much.

00:03:01.440 That's exactly how I would describe it.

00:03:04.140 Relief Factory will take you and give you your life back.

00:03:08.640 It doesn't mean you're going to live a life pain-free.

00:03:10.940 It means you're going to live a life where you are able to function.

00:03:15.960 And most of your pain is gone.

00:03:19.960 Kent, I'm glad you got your life back with Relief Factory.

00:03:22.340 I know what you mean about just wanting to crawl into bed and cry.

00:03:26.180 But some of us, we go on.

00:03:29.420 We stand on our own two feet and we push forward.

00:03:34.120 You know what I'm saying, Stu?

00:03:35.960 Some of us are standing on your own two feet.

00:03:39.160 That's what you're doing today?

00:03:41.340 I'm here, aren't I?

00:03:42.400 You are here.

00:03:42.960 Sitting here, right here in the studio, right next to you.

00:03:46.680 In a way, yes, you are.

00:03:48.720 You certainly are.

00:03:50.020 It's an interesting day here at the studio.

00:03:53.000 It's Friday.

00:03:54.400 Relief Factor.

00:03:55.460 Try it out.

00:03:56.220 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.

00:04:00.340 It's Relief Factor.

00:04:01.360 ReliefFactor.com or call 800-583-84.

00:04:05.020 800-583-84.

00:04:07.380 It's ReliefFactor.com.

00:04:10.360 All right. 1.00

00:04:11.280 You sick, twisted freak. 1.00

00:04:19.900 How you doing, Stu? 1.00

00:04:21.120 Good.

00:04:21.440 How are you?

00:04:22.320 Well, I'm a little worried about misinformation today and, you know, what Big Brother is going

00:04:26.820 to say about what we're talking about today.

00:04:28.920 I just want to make sure we're in line and all of our words are politically correct.

00:04:37.080 And if not, I think it's appropriate to not only ban us from, let's say, Twitter, but also

00:04:43.120 from all other social media and maybe all speech entirely.

00:04:46.360 Well, I don't think you should be allowed to speak if you have misinformation, you know.

00:04:52.620 You know, it's not enough YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, but radio, television, all internet.

00:05:02.120 But, hey, look, if you want to write letters, you can write letters to people.

00:05:07.820 Can't send them in the mail.

00:05:08.780 No, no, not with a federal.

00:05:10.760 It would be a federal crime to send false information through the U.S. Postal Service.

00:05:16.400 So you don't want to do that.

00:05:18.440 Sure, sure.

00:05:19.320 But you can write letters.

00:05:20.880 I didn't say send them.

00:05:21.700 I said you could write letters.

00:05:22.820 This is Amy Klobuchar.

00:05:26.120 Now, remember, Amy Klobuchar was the one that said, hey, you know what we're going to do?

00:05:31.700 We're going to. 0.99

00:05:32.540 These people are way too crazy for me. 0.52

00:05:35.820 And if you're a Democrat and you just want common sense and you don't want all this radicalism.

00:05:41.000 Well, let me tell you right now, what you need is Amy Klobuchar for president. 1.00

00:05:45.540 Yeah, she was the moderate yesterday.

00:05:49.040 Yesterday, she came out and introduced her Health Misinformation Act, co-sponsored by Senate Commerce Communications Subcommittee, blah, blah, blah. 1.00

00:06:01.340 Create an exception to websites currently current liability protection for user posted content.

00:06:07.040 So, in other words, if Facebook is providing misinformation, well, they're not they're not held responsible.

00:06:15.420 They don't mean to.

00:06:16.820 OK.

00:06:16.960 OK, but let me tell you something.

00:06:21.520 If you post something now, this is only because it's a health emergency.

00:06:26.420 Right.

00:06:27.260 Still, I mean, it's this is not going to happen for, you know, everyday things.

00:06:31.440 No, no, of course.

00:06:32.360 Just just the health.

00:06:33.560 Just if there's like a major health and safety sort of situation.

00:06:38.040 Right.

00:06:38.700 Like like covid or.

00:06:41.000 Right.

00:06:41.220 Exactly.

00:06:41.600 Like a pandemic, an ongoing pandemic.

00:06:43.660 Or or racism, because racism is a really big health problem.

00:06:47.760 As we found out, that's why you could protest.

00:06:50.000 Yeah.

00:06:50.220 That's why it was it was OK to protest in the George Floyd thing, because obviously more important than the pandemic as a health issue was racism.

00:06:58.640 Racism.

00:06:59.100 It was a bigger it was a bigger pandemic in America than the actual pandemic.

00:07:04.460 And, you know, I mean, I think we should throw in guns because guns are a huge problem, huge problem with health, huge health issue.

00:07:13.940 That's probably.

00:07:14.640 Yeah.

00:07:15.080 I will say this.

00:07:16.440 The climate is so serious.

00:07:18.040 Glenn.

00:07:18.580 Well, it's the health of everybody.

00:07:20.320 Yeah.

00:07:20.500 We all die.

00:07:21.380 Yeah.

00:07:21.600 So it's a it's a it's a I mean, it's existential threat.

00:07:25.560 Right.

00:07:25.880 And talk radio, really.

00:07:27.600 I mean, it's become the guys on talk radio are really more of cult leaders.

00:07:32.520 That's a great thing.

00:07:33.780 That's a great health issue.

00:07:35.460 And they really need to be stopped.

00:07:38.220 This is we're not making this up.

00:07:42.080 This is exactly what will happen.

00:07:45.120 And I know this audience knows this, but so many people in America won't even pay attention to this story.

00:07:54.900 You know, we are being killed not by Marxist.

00:07:57.380 We are being killed by apathy.

00:07:59.040 We are being killed by a bunch of people who have no interest in doing anything for themselves.

00:08:06.920 They'll believe whatever they hear and they'll just take it at face value.

00:08:14.040 And they don't really care.

00:08:16.540 They're not really paying attention to any of the news.

00:08:19.240 They probably can't tell you who the vice president is.

00:08:23.180 And certainly they couldn't tell you what HHS is and a misinformation act.

00:08:28.780 Of course, that sounds good.

00:08:30.800 I mean, we got to stop this misinformation.

00:08:35.220 Hmm.

00:08:36.460 Well, may I give you just a few things?

00:08:40.000 This is actually coming from the Daily Caller.

00:08:44.040 Here's four major stories, four major stories that were called disinformation.

00:08:51.000 The first one is the lab leak theory.

00:08:55.040 We we received anti brownie points.

00:09:01.220 I don't know what you would.

00:09:02.340 I don't know what you would call those two.

00:09:04.340 But we were flagged as a company and it cost us money to tell you that we felt that there is a chance it came from the lab.

00:09:16.020 It's obvious that that's where you even start, you know, when you have a Corona virus coming out and it's got a you know, it's got a wet market.

00:09:27.620 Two hundred and seventy seven yards away from the bio lab.

00:09:31.940 You look at the wet market, but you also look at the bio lab.

00:09:36.680 We weren't allowed to do that for months after the Corona virus spread.

00:09:41.500 Democrats and media talking heads dismissed any possibility that the virus could have leaked from a research laboratory.

00:09:49.620 Tom Cotton, do you remember what Tom Cotton went through because he said that it was coming from the lab or the possibility that it was coming from the lab?

00:10:00.160 He was laid. He was labeled a fringe conspiracy theorist for that.

00:10:05.600 Well, it turns out looks like he may be right.

00:10:09.640 Now, everybody's saying it's OK.

00:10:12.920 So what happens to the people like me, people like you that might have been saying and exercising their First Amendment right to question the government?

00:10:24.140 Remember, that's part of the First Amendment.

00:10:26.240 It's not just freedom of press.

00:10:27.700 It is also to petition the government to get together and say, wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:10:35.060 You owe us answers because we don't believe that if we lose the right to petition our government and the right to free speech, what's really left that is important?

00:10:48.600 If you can't question the government, if you can't question what the mainstream media and the government say.

00:10:58.960 Do you really have any freedom left anymore?

00:11:03.420 That's not a rhetorical question, by the way.

00:11:06.900 Tell me how you have freedom without freedom of speech, freedom of expression.

00:11:12.080 Tell me how you are free if you're not allowed to question authority.

00:11:19.440 How do we have any new invention?

00:11:23.440 How do we have anything?

00:11:25.880 See, this is what happens to communist countries.

00:11:28.540 People just think that, oh, well, no, they just have some bad leadership at the top.

00:11:32.620 No, they kill everything that leads to invention.

00:11:37.220 They kill everything that leads to progress because you're not allowed to question those in authority.

00:11:47.940 So only those in authority, if they steal the ideas from other people or they just come up with them themselves, that's the only way you get any kind of progress.

00:12:00.540 And who's interested in progress when those at the top are fat and happy?

00:12:07.200 Why change things?

00:12:09.100 Why upset the apple cart?

00:12:11.120 Why do we need this?

00:12:13.360 Now, another one, of course, was the Russian bounties on American soldiers.

00:12:17.800 A few months before the 2020 presidential election, the media began to circulate a report suggesting Russian officials secretly place bounties on the heads of American soldiers,

00:12:28.860 effectively paying the Taliban to kill Americans.

00:12:33.780 Everyone from The New York Times and now the White House press secretary, Jen Psaki, pushed this narrative.

00:12:41.680 The Washington Post even gave Trump four Pinocchios for calling the story fake news.

00:12:46.600 Now, six months after the election, the story has changed.

00:12:52.000 A new statement from the Biden White House said former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said from the beginning that the intelligence community did not have high confidence in the information.

00:13:02.680 And yet the press and the government, all of the agencies said, if you question that. 0.97

00:13:12.280 You were just a crazy Trump supporter. 0.97

00:13:16.120 You were just trying to get him elected. 1.00

00:13:18.640 You were ignoring the fact that Americans were being slaughtered and and executed at the request of Russia. 0.71

00:13:27.400 You were just a denier.

00:13:30.740 And now we know it's not true.

00:13:35.260 How about Hunter Biden's laptop?

00:13:37.400 That's the opposite direction. 1.00

00:13:39.820 If you believed in Hunter Biden's laptop, you were a moron. 1.00

00:13:45.040 This was Russian disinformation. 1.00

00:13:48.080 This was this was bad for the election because.

00:13:51.520 We know Russia has been working with Trump and now they have this laptop that just shows up.

00:14:01.900 NPR said they wouldn't even report on it.

00:14:07.180 Now, what do we know about Hunter Biden's laptop?

00:14:10.580 Well, we don't know a lot from the government.

00:14:13.360 We don't know a lot from the press, but we do do know now that the Hunter Biden laptop story is absolutely true.

00:14:23.620 They're still trying to deny the things in it just by not talking about it.

00:14:30.160 But it's it's not disinformation.

00:14:33.740 It's not misinformation.

00:14:37.240 It's true.

00:14:39.580 There's three really important ones.

00:14:41.480 How about the just the Russian collusion in and of itself?

00:14:45.180 How about this one?

00:14:46.860 In 2007, I said something that almost no one agreed with.

00:14:54.500 I got so much heat from people because I said the economy, we're going to collapse.

00:15:01.380 The banking system is going to collapse.

00:15:05.000 And lo and behold, it did.

00:15:07.100 Well, I said that for about how long, Stu, before that happened?

00:15:10.160 Three years?

00:15:10.680 Yeah, it was.

00:15:12.000 It was a long time.

00:15:12.800 Yeah.

00:15:12.960 Three years.

00:15:13.880 I was I was really ringing the bell on that.

00:15:17.600 Look out.

00:15:18.100 Look out.

00:15:18.660 Don't get involved in all this housing scam.

00:15:21.360 We're in trouble.

00:15:22.860 Well, was that disinformation or was that my opinion?

00:15:28.480 And it actually helps save some people.

00:15:31.840 But everybody was pissed at me.

00:15:34.160 Republicans, Democrats alike.

00:15:36.060 Everyone was pissed at me.

00:15:37.740 How about there's a caliphate?

00:15:40.940 The caliphate is coming. 0.97

00:15:42.760 That's what these people want to do in the Middle East is they want to caliphate. 0.99

00:15:48.220 Oh, my gosh.

00:15:49.000 That's the craziest thing ever.

00:15:50.420 Was that disinformation?

00:15:52.120 Can you imagine even talking about Benghazi today?

00:15:57.400 Was that disinformation?

00:16:00.260 No one paid for that.

00:16:02.580 No one paid for that.

00:16:04.540 But we know what the truth is because we saw it.

00:16:08.560 We we in America, the people who were involved could write a book.

00:16:16.980 And then in the time when it wasn't just what was politically correct, but what could be made into a good movie like that's a higher standard.

00:16:26.480 We saw the movie.

00:16:32.620 Was that disinformation?

00:16:35.880 We are now entering a place and this is really, truly it.

00:16:40.560 If this happens, this is the key to destroy everything.

00:16:46.180 And that is having the government and HHS decide what's information, what's misinformation and disinformation.

00:16:56.260 And I know they're saying that, no, that's not going to happen.

00:16:59.420 It's only because this is a health epidemic.

00:17:02.460 Uh-huh.

00:17:03.780 Well, you have already said climate change is about health.

00:17:07.900 You have already said gun control is about health.

00:17:11.640 You will put anything about health.

00:17:16.040 If I said the things I said, which are true, and we now know about Obamacare, when they were trying to shove that through, they could have silenced me because that's a health issue.

00:17:29.200 And I was lying to the American people.

00:17:32.320 No, I wasn't.

00:17:33.380 No, I wasn't.

00:17:34.660 Who was lying?

00:17:36.280 It was the government.

00:17:37.840 If Americans don't start to see that our founding fathers were exactly right, if you don't, if the government doesn't have a healthy fear that the American people are watching and will remember and will take action at the voting booth,

00:17:59.780 If they don't fear the people, the people will fear them.

00:18:06.360 And no government, left or right, no president, left or right, Republican, Democrat, Independent, should ever have as much power as our president now has.

00:18:19.080 No president, no Congress should ever be able to make the American people afraid.

00:18:27.280 Donald Trump scared half the country.

00:18:28.720 So what did they do?

00:18:31.080 They put somebody else in office who scared the other half of the country.

00:18:37.600 What are we doing?

00:18:40.500 I think it's time we start coming together and saying, no, no one should be afraid of the government.

00:18:49.360 All right.

00:18:50.100 Let me tell you about LifeLock, our sponsor this half hour.

00:18:52.600 Unless you have some ability to constantly adapt to every new way cyber criminals are attempting to seal your identity, you need something that's going to protect your data.

00:19:01.960 There's an unfortunate truth.

00:19:04.160 Nobody is able to keep up with all cyber crime because it's happening all the time all over the world.

00:19:11.200 Did you see what happened yesterday?

00:19:12.760 Did you see what happened yesterday, all the websites that were shut down, Stu?

00:19:18.360 No, I don't think I did.

00:19:19.540 Oh, my gosh.

00:19:20.240 Big story.

00:19:20.600 We'll talk about it in a minute.

00:19:22.180 It wasn't a cyber hack, they say.

00:19:24.940 They say it was a software update.

00:19:26.680 But it was the banking system, it was AT&T, it was a lot.

00:19:33.320 It was a lot.

00:19:34.660 And don't think that our enemies can't do that.

00:19:37.980 Now, if they're able to do that to the government, if they're able to do that to some of our infrastructure, you don't think they can get your information and destroy your life?

00:19:48.860 You need LifeLock, somebody that is watching over you all the time.

00:19:53.560 They can't catch everything, but if they miss something or something has happened to you, they'll help you make it right.

00:20:00.040 They have a dedicated restoration team that you can grab a specialist from, and if you become a victim, they assign somebody to your case.

00:20:08.440 It's LifeLock.

00:20:23.560 What did you say?

00:20:29.780 Yeah, yeah.

00:20:33.120 It's Friday.

00:20:34.180 Bill O'Reilly is coming up in just a little while.

00:20:36.340 Also, Brad Thor is going to be on with us at hour number three.

00:20:39.640 He's always fun.

00:20:41.760 He is.

00:20:42.340 Brad's always an interesting conversation.

00:20:45.660 Speaking of interesting, are we going to address your situation here on camera today?

00:20:51.740 I'm just sitting here.

00:20:55.040 I feel a little like Stephen Hawking.

00:20:57.420 Oh, wait a minute.

00:20:58.000 I'm on the beach, strangely not laying down on the beach, but that's weird.

00:21:06.560 That's weird.

00:21:07.200 If you're watching GBTV or you're watching Blaze TV today, you'll see that now I'm just sunning myself on the beach.

00:21:15.220 And it's beautiful.

00:21:17.360 Yeah, Glenn is having some back issues, which seems to be a very frequent occurrence lately.

00:21:25.180 Yeah, I mean, I'm turning into Pat.

00:21:27.200 I've never had, I mean, I fell out of a two-story window probably 30 years ago and screwed up my back royally and been living with it.

00:21:37.400 And I've been able to handle it and the pain will come and go.

00:21:41.800 And once in a while, I'll throw my back out and it'll be bad.

00:21:43.900 I threw my back out, I don't even know, three months ago.

00:21:47.000 And I've had all kinds of, you know, steroid injections and everything else.

00:21:51.540 And the doctor is now saying, you've got to have surgery.

00:21:54.420 And I don't want surgery.

00:21:56.820 I don't, you know, it was a sad situation, obviously.

00:21:59.000 It was that it was only two stories, but you actually, back in the day, did the show with Pat after he went through a surgery.

00:22:09.840 Yeah.

00:22:10.040 And wasn't he in the bed?

00:22:11.320 He was in bed for, I don't even know, two months, something like that.

00:22:15.880 So now you are currently laying flat on the floor here in the studio with a green screen behind you.

00:22:22.600 I don't know what you're talking about.

00:22:23.900 I'm here on the beach.

00:22:25.480 Oh my gosh, who am I in bed with?

00:22:28.160 That looks like Amy Schumer. 1.00

00:22:29.420 You seem to be in bed with Amy Schumer.

00:22:31.120 That's not.

00:22:32.120 This is not going to be good.

00:22:33.280 This is not right.

00:22:34.220 I don't want to be in bed with Amy Schumer.

00:24:05.040 Hello, America.

00:24:19.140 It's Friday.

00:24:21.420 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:24:22.860 Glad you're here.

00:24:23.400 Bill O'Reilly comes up in about half an hour.

00:24:25.780 I'm really excited to talk to him about the news of the week.

00:24:28.840 What he felt was the most important.

00:24:31.220 Usually wrong on that.

00:24:33.000 He's usually wrong on that.

00:24:34.380 But he's got a great viewpoint.

00:24:37.660 And we'll check with him in about half an hour from now.

00:24:40.520 Looking at you right now, you have a great viewpoint as well.

00:24:42.680 A viewpoint from space.

00:24:44.080 Well, you know, Branson went into space.

00:24:46.680 And then what's his name from Amazon?

00:24:51.120 He went up.

00:24:51.620 I went in, you know, his was a little controversial.

00:24:55.500 Bezos, when he went into space, his capsule kind of looked a little, you know.

00:24:59.240 But I went in a rocket shaped as lady bits. 1.00

00:25:06.700 And so I'm in space now.

00:25:08.660 It's very, it's funny watching you because as if you missed it, Glenn is laying flat on

00:25:13.340 the ground today.

00:25:14.520 And they've put a green screen behind him and are just changing the backgrounds to torture

00:25:18.180 him.

00:25:18.380 And it's fun.

00:25:20.200 Actually, it's one of these that we should send some pictures out, tweet some pictures

00:25:23.320 out of Glenn with the various backgrounds.

00:25:27.240 And perhaps I'm just, this is a suggestion to the audience because it's Friday.

00:25:31.400 It's a summer Friday.

00:25:32.940 Maybe they're a little bored.

00:25:34.660 At Stu Does America, at Glenn Beck.

00:25:37.000 Tweet us the background you think should be behind Glenn for the rest of the show.

00:25:40.880 So just, it's just, if you have a funny picture that you think would look funny having Glenn

00:25:45.100 in the middle of it as he's trying to do serious material on the air.

00:25:48.140 I'd like to be in the garage with Jack Ruby right now.

00:25:55.040 Can you put me back in bed with Amy Schumer, please?

00:25:58.020 Does that one, that one looked kind of real, didn't it?

00:26:01.060 You're going to have to take it full screen.

00:26:02.160 There it is.

00:26:02.940 Kind of looks like, and she's looking over at me like, oh my gosh, this is great.

00:26:08.380 And so to make this complete, it has to be like, I think.

00:26:17.180 This is one of those things.

00:26:18.760 I will say, it's not just, we are, we've talked a lot about social media today because of the

00:26:25.460 Amy Klobuchar bill.

00:26:28.060 And sure, people can tweet backgrounds for you to do the radio show with today at

00:26:32.720 Studios America at Glenn Beck.

00:26:33.820 Sure. 0.96

00:26:34.260 But we're not just here to be silly. 0.91

00:26:37.420 No, we're not.

00:26:38.380 We are here to help the audience and navigate these very difficult times.

00:26:42.540 Thank you.

00:26:43.000 Now, I don't know if you know this, but they've decided to come out with new emojis

00:26:47.080 because, hey, things are changing.

00:26:50.080 And so the emojis need to change too.

00:26:52.100 Uh, and so the good people at the emoji producing factory, uh, have decided to take on, uh, a new

00:27:02.220 task.

00:27:03.140 Stu.

00:27:03.800 Yeah.

00:27:04.080 Well, I know they had the pregnant man. 1.00

00:27:05.600 Yeah.

00:27:05.920 Which was a nice one.

00:27:06.880 Because, you know, people don't realize this, but men can be pregnant.

00:27:10.240 No, men cannot become pregnant. 0.93

00:27:12.160 Oh, yes, they can.

00:27:12.820 Yes, they can.

00:27:13.300 No, they can't.

00:27:14.060 No, they can't.

00:27:14.660 Basically, the way that a man becomes pregnant is they are a woman and then we call them a 0.97

00:27:19.800 man.

00:27:20.420 Oh, okay.

00:27:21.280 So then they can become pregnant, but a biological man, no matter, you know, how he, uh, you know, 0.84

00:27:27.480 changes his, uh, his parts, um, can't have a baby.

00:27:31.340 And anybody like Stu, who's trying to propagate that dangerous medical disinformation, just want

00:27:40.600 to point that out.

00:27:41.920 Dangerous medical misinformation.

00:27:44.620 This is the road we're on.

00:27:46.380 This is the road we're on that they will know they will.

00:27:49.040 And we're far down this road, by the way.

00:27:50.920 I mean, the fact that they're releasing a pregnant male, which we all, we all look,

00:27:55.680 we can all talk about this stuff however you want.

00:27:57.740 But the bottom line is that men cannot have children. 0.62

00:28:00.040 That is a very basic fact of the human anatomy.

00:28:03.040 I have children.

00:28:03.780 You did not give birth to any children.

00:28:05.540 Feels like I did.

00:28:06.300 People always say like, we're pregnant.

00:28:07.920 Now she's pregnant. 1.00

00:28:08.880 All right.

00:28:09.180 You're not anything.

00:28:10.200 You spent eight, probably 18 seconds doing something.

00:28:13.580 It's over.

00:28:14.680 Your part of this is pretty much over.

00:28:16.580 You'll spend the rest of your life probably, uh, screwing the kid up, uh, as they grow

00:28:20.880 up.

00:28:21.220 But you're, you're, wow.

00:28:22.400 She's, she's, somebody had some daddy issues. 1.00

00:28:25.100 Holy cow. 0.89

00:28:27.200 But it's like, that term is hilarious.

00:28:29.740 We're pregnant.

00:28:30.580 I got that you had a small role.

00:28:33.280 She's the one doing everything.

00:28:34.620 What are you doing?

00:28:35.380 I know.

00:28:36.160 We have children.

00:28:38.120 That's accurate.

00:28:39.040 Yes.

00:28:39.320 Of course.

00:28:39.720 We're pregnant.

00:28:40.740 No, no, we're not.

00:28:42.140 No, we're not.

00:28:43.220 I mean, I look.

00:28:43.920 And we're glad half 50% of us are glad we're not pregnant.

00:28:47.840 Now, if you look at our physiques, we look pregnant and the male pregnant thing actually 1.00

00:28:51.820 would work for us as an emoji because we look like we're pregnant.

00:28:55.740 Exactly right.

00:28:57.360 Stu, that's our new logo.

00:29:00.320 You and I, as emojis, pregnant.

00:29:02.900 It works.

00:29:03.780 It works.

00:29:04.240 And that will keep us, they can't ban us that.

00:29:06.380 Right.

00:29:06.680 If we're the pregnant men, we decided, we decided that we were going to help the emoji

00:29:12.520 people and come up with some new emojis as well.

00:29:15.500 For instance, I don't want to, I don't want to get somebody's pronouns wrong and they don't 0.99

00:29:20.940 always announce their pronouns.

00:29:22.540 So, to make sure I don't misgender somebody, I'm suggesting a new 99 shaped emoji. 0.98

00:29:32.560 That way, you know, I just put that instead of Mr. Miss, you know, you, they, whatever 0.98

00:29:39.340 it is, you just put the 99 emoji up there.

00:29:42.480 So, this is what covers the 99 genders? 0.95

00:29:44.700 Is that the idea?

00:29:45.860 Yeah.

00:29:45.900 Now, we might have to change that as the genders keep going up. 1.00

00:29:49.820 Yeah, maybe 999 would be a safer thing.

00:29:52.020 Probably.

00:29:52.580 Because we probably have a good month or two before it hits 999 genders. 1.00

00:29:56.160 Yeah.

00:29:56.360 Now, I've come up with another, and we're going to be tweeting all of these out, so you'll

00:30:00.860 be able to see them.

00:30:02.400 I came up with another one because we know that CRT, we told you yesterday the definition

00:30:08.840 of a word that you probably have never heard, praxis.

00:30:12.240 It's an old word, but it was really, it's really used by communists and people who believe

00:30:19.220 in Karl Marx.

00:30:20.040 I mean, I believe in Karl Marx.

00:30:22.440 I just don't believe in his writings.

00:30:23.640 But the praxis means putting it into action.

00:30:28.800 And that's what's happening to our schools.

00:30:31.380 They are making activists out of our schools.

00:30:34.560 And so, you know, when we're talking about our kids, I think it's easy just to use a, just

00:30:41.280 a little emoji there, which is, looks to be, how would you describe that, Stu?

00:30:46.560 An angry child, an angry baby holding a BLM sign?

00:30:51.220 Yeah.

00:30:51.640 So there's your new emoji for child activist.

00:30:56.120 Now, we all have complained from time to time that we've lost our heroes.

00:31:02.860 You know, all of their, who are the heroes?

00:31:05.540 And so we thought we would make the politically correct emoji of our new heroes.

00:31:12.420 And here they are.

00:31:14.100 They're holding hands.

00:31:15.600 There's, there's three of them there.

00:31:17.940 One is Castro.

00:31:19.900 One is, uh, President Zee.

00:31:22.040 And the other is Maduro.

00:31:23.760 And they're holding hands with halos over their head.

00:31:26.460 So I.

00:31:27.320 Totally appropriate.

00:31:28.280 And what, and this, the good thing about using these emojis, you will never get banned

00:31:31.680 using them.

00:31:32.840 No.

00:31:32.960 These will be completely approved.

00:31:34.580 As long as you don't use them in some sarcastic way.

00:31:38.320 Who would do that?

00:31:40.060 I hope nobody.

00:31:41.260 I mean, I know this isn't sarcastic.

00:31:43.300 We're not doing this in a sarcastic way.

00:31:45.240 We mean it.

00:31:46.480 We mean it.

00:31:47.080 I would love to have these emojis.

00:31:49.820 Can we, is there a way to make this emoji package so we can actually have people use

00:31:55.420 them as emojis?

00:31:56.760 I don't know.

00:31:58.280 I will say I've never in my life used an emoji for any reason.

00:32:02.940 I do.

00:32:03.640 I use the guy.

00:32:04.960 I use the guy with his tongue out and his eyes kind of popped out cross-eyed.

00:32:09.680 I use that one a lot.

00:32:11.540 I use the one where he's just got big white eyes.

00:32:14.340 He's like, what?

00:32:15.760 I use that one a lot.

00:32:16.800 I had this thing where I learned growing up.

00:32:19.720 Words?

00:32:21.560 Yeah.

00:32:21.880 So I use those to describe the things I'm talking about.

00:32:24.160 It's a crazy idea.

00:32:25.180 The one I find the most active, at least for me, is the salsa dancer.

00:32:32.820 Really?

00:32:33.300 You've seen the, yeah.

00:32:34.320 Have you seen that?

00:32:35.000 They have a lady salsa dancer and a man salsa dancer.

00:32:38.700 And I use that all the time.

00:32:41.280 Really?

00:32:41.760 All the time.

00:32:42.620 I can't.

00:32:42.960 Just so many.

00:32:43.780 I can't tell you how many.

00:32:45.620 Is it like, hey honey, bring me thee.

00:32:47.920 And then salsa?

00:32:49.060 Exactly.

00:32:49.980 Okay.

00:32:50.320 It's like, hey honey, you want to salsa dance tonight?

00:32:54.540 You know?

00:32:56.020 I thought you were looking for condiments, but I was apparently mistaken.

00:32:59.080 No, no, no.

00:32:59.420 That's the main use for it.

00:33:00.900 That's the main use for it.

00:33:02.400 What the hell is that?

00:33:04.240 Why do they have a salsa dancer? 1.00

00:33:06.340 Why?

00:33:07.400 Who's using that?

00:33:08.380 I don't know.

00:33:09.080 I don't know the point.

00:33:10.120 People think these things are cute.

00:33:11.880 And I don't understand.

00:33:14.240 It's just a dumbing down of our society in such a massive way that I don't participate.

00:33:20.120 Let me just tell you this, you know who you can, who can really help, who can really help

00:33:25.540 and not dumb down our society is the government.

00:33:28.500 And that's why we have a new government emoji here to help.

00:33:34.340 It's just a yellow faced guy in dark sunglasses and a needle.

00:33:41.120 So he's got the vaccine all ready to go.

00:33:43.600 He's here to help.

00:33:44.900 Coming door to door?

00:33:45.740 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:33:46.900 Then, of course, if you want anybody to take you seriously, you're going to need this emoji.

00:33:51.980 This is your vaccine passport emoji.

00:33:55.420 So you can just label that and you're like, look, I can come into this theater.

00:33:59.760 Here's my passport.

00:34:00.960 You know what I mean?

00:34:01.840 Exciting.

00:34:02.620 Yeah, yeah.

00:34:04.240 Now, this one was inspired by Joe Biden because, you know, I, of course, use Latinx all the time

00:34:13.820 when I'm talking about, excuse me for saying this, Latinos. 0.99

00:34:18.960 Now, is it confirmed Latinx?

00:34:21.660 I thought it was Latinx.

00:34:23.060 Is it both?

00:34:23.920 How does that work?

00:34:24.820 Well, it is Latinx.

00:34:27.320 But apparently Joe Biden is so hip that he came up with his own way of pronouncing it.

00:34:33.160 And here he is.

00:34:34.180 Listen.

00:34:34.380 It's awful hard as well to get Latinx vaccinated as well.

00:34:41.080 Latinx.

00:34:42.020 Latinx.

00:34:42.480 That's a good point.

00:34:43.060 So we have a new Latinx emoji.

00:34:47.840 It's a tissue box with a sombrero on it.

00:34:50.920 The new Latinx.

00:34:53.280 You know, that one may get you banned.

00:34:54.760 That one potentially might actually get you banned.

00:34:58.280 But it's still really funny.

00:34:59.440 Let me go for the peaceful protester. 0.94

00:35:01.600 If we have the peaceful protester, he's a black block rioter with raised fist Antifa 1.00

00:35:10.240 branded branded riot shield and his face is masked.

00:35:15.740 So that's that's the peaceful protester emoji and not spreading COVID.

00:35:19.900 Exactly right.

00:35:20.740 Because they're wearing the mask.

00:35:21.400 Exactly right.

00:35:21.900 And let me just show you now the journalist.

00:35:25.460 There's the emoji for the journalist.

00:35:27.360 That seems to be very similar to the peaceful protester Antifa member.

00:35:34.980 Oh, yeah.

00:35:35.180 They're exactly the same.

00:35:36.160 OK.

00:35:36.580 But just depends on which context you use.

00:35:38.980 And then here is the college student.

00:35:41.980 You have the college student emoji right there.

00:35:45.160 Again, that looks exactly like the journalist and the Antifa member.

00:35:49.220 I know it's hard to tell them apart, isn't it?

00:35:50.880 It is.

00:35:51.420 It is hard to tell them apart.

00:35:52.680 All right.

00:35:53.520 Our sponsor this half hour is if I could see it, I would be able to tell you it's American

00:36:01.140 financing.

00:36:02.640 If there's one thing that we as Americans are used to, it's standing on the precipice of

00:36:07.040 change, especially now.

00:36:08.860 Right.

00:36:09.900 Isn't it exciting to be on the precipice where you feel like you might fall off the cliff?

00:36:15.380 But don't worry.

00:36:16.640 You're not going to.

00:36:18.140 Sometimes change is good.

00:36:19.340 A lot of times it's not so good.

00:36:21.100 I don't know what the future holds, but I do know that it holds all kinds of change

00:36:26.300 and it's going to have change that will be directly related to your banking future.

00:36:33.300 If you don't know what I'm talking about, please look into The Great Reset or watch one

00:36:37.600 of our episodes on The Great Reset.

00:36:39.460 But it is going to change.

00:36:41.420 A lot of stuff is changing.

00:36:43.140 And I want you to call American financing because it's going to get harder for you to get a loan,

00:36:48.980 especially once they start doling out the ESG cards.

00:36:54.180 And you listen to this program.

00:36:56.120 Yeah, you're kind of a risk for the bank.

00:36:59.260 So I don't think we're going to be able to do that for you.

00:37:03.060 Give American financing a call today.

00:37:05.400 Do not wait.

00:37:06.460 Do not put it off.

00:37:07.880 If you want to start saving money right now, look into a refi or maybe you're looking for

00:37:13.980 a new mortgage for your house right now or you're buying a new house or you want to do

00:37:19.620 a consolidation loan right now.

00:37:22.580 American financing 800-906-2440 800-906-2440 or go to American financing dot net.

00:37:31.080 American financing NMLS 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org

00:37:37.460 You know, Joe Biden is looking to spend an awful lot of our money and I'm not sure he even

00:37:56.240 understands what he's talking about.

00:37:57.880 By the way, I'm up on top of I think this is Everest because I'm that kind of guy.

00:38:03.040 Anyway, he said in the town hall the other day, I'm not being facetious, Democrats or

00:38:08.020 Republicans.

00:38:08.380 I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.

00:38:10.440 The fact is you can't look at television and say nothing happened on January 6th.

00:38:14.460 You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

00:38:17.140 No, I'm serious.

00:38:18.280 I'm not joking.

00:38:19.300 Think about it.

00:38:20.500 Think of the things being said.

00:38:21.980 I've been through the other end of this when Democrats 35 years ago were way off on the

00:38:26.640 other side.

00:38:28.060 So was he thinking does he think the 1960s were 35 years ago or is he accurately saying

00:38:35.040 that the bombing of the Capitol building from the Weather Underground happened and that was

00:38:42.180 a Democratic move?

00:38:43.680 I also like how he's presenting it as it's crazy that like you look at TV and you shouldn't

00:38:49.340 you can't believe your eyes.

00:38:50.440 That doesn't that was not like just a peaceful event.

00:38:53.080 That's exactly what they required us to do the entire summer of the George Floyd protests.

00:38:57.980 Yeah.

00:38:58.240 Look at all this violence.

00:38:59.420 Look at all the things burning to the ground.

00:39:01.120 That's nothing.

00:39:01.780 That's a peaceful protest.

00:39:02.960 You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

00:39:06.500 No, I mean it.

00:39:08.120 I'm not being facetious.

00:39:10.120 Think about it.

00:39:11.600 He drives me nuts.

00:39:14.220 Amazing.

00:39:14.920 Amazing.

00:39:15.600 By the way, another thing to think about here, Glenn, before we finish the hour and Bill

00:39:19.600 O'Reilly's coming up here in just a couple of minutes.

00:39:21.680 The spending process that we're talking about.

00:39:24.960 This is from Brian Riedel at the dispatch.

00:39:27.100 Add it all up and the Democrats are laying the groundwork to add $6.1 trillion in new spending

00:39:31.660 and tax cuts, including our tax credits, excuse me, including the mostly unnecessary $1.9

00:39:37.360 trillion stimulus bill enacted just four months ago.

00:39:40.500 That would bring the 2021 binge just this year to a historic $8 trillion over the next

00:39:46.300 decade.

00:39:47.160 How much is $8 trillion enough for Washington to deposit $60,000 into each family's bank account?

00:39:55.220 And instead of that, what we're going to get is a mishmash of programs and nonsense that

00:40:01.760 won't work at all.

00:40:03.500 That's what we're going to get.

00:40:04.760 $60,000 in everybody's bank account.

00:40:07.500 And if you think about it the other way, at a cost of $60,000 to every household, that's

00:40:14.520 another way to kind of consider how serious this is.

00:40:16.920 And $8 trillion and nobody's really even blinking.

00:40:22.920 Nobody's blinking.

00:40:23.980 Remember when we said that would cost, you know, $10 trillion and they'd be like, that's

00:40:28.720 over a 10 year period.

00:40:30.760 Yeah.

00:40:31.200 Well, and this is a year.

00:40:32.780 Well, it's a year when they're enacting it.

00:40:34.480 I mean, you're right.

00:40:34.900 A lot of this is over the 10 year period, but still, what does that mean?

00:40:38.800 It's still going to be spent.

00:40:39.820 What happens next year when they say they want to spend $8 trillion over a 10 year period?

00:40:45.000 And he points that out in the piece.

00:40:45.980 A lot of these programs are, it's only $8 trillion because of their, they're giving

00:40:50.400 these false ending dates.

00:40:51.720 Like they're really not going to keep the child tax credit this high going into next

00:40:55.760 year.

00:40:56.180 Right.

00:40:56.380 Really?

00:40:56.960 Right.

00:40:57.300 Really?

00:40:57.560 They're going to cut it in half next year.

00:40:59.800 Think of what the debate will look like in a midterm election year on that proposal.

00:41:04.200 All right.

00:41:04.820 Mr. Bill O'Reilly is next.

00:41:06.240 Talk about the big news of the week, followed by Mr. Brad Thorne.

00:41:13.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:15.980 Thank you very much, Hillary.

00:41:17.400 It is a really amazing podcast.

00:41:20.480 You don't want to miss it.

00:41:21.500 It's available now.

00:41:23.160 AMAC.

00:41:23.900 Our nation is depending on all of us to stand up against the woke mob.

00:41:29.400 Otherwise, we're going to end up kneeling before them.

00:41:32.440 The question is, will you answer the call?

00:41:35.120 Many of us, many of us are, if you're watching us, if you're listening to us now, you're probably

00:41:42.520 part of that group.

00:41:43.460 But there are things that you can do that, that help.

00:41:47.000 And because there's power in numbers.

00:41:49.140 And one of those things is to join AMAC.

00:41:51.980 If you're over 50, you want to join the Association of Mature Americans, or AMAC.

00:41:57.260 They're calling on you to help them combat the indoctrination of our children and grandchildren

00:42:02.820 at school.

00:42:03.920 They are taking a stand against it.

00:42:06.480 The integrity of our elections.

00:42:08.380 They're standing for it.

00:42:09.620 Freedom of speech.

00:42:10.580 Freedom of religion.

00:42:11.760 The right to keep and bear arms.

00:42:13.480 They are standing against it.

00:42:14.980 And they need more of us to join the ranks.

00:42:18.660 The bigger they get, the bigger our voice.

00:42:22.540 The more heft to that stick.

00:42:25.740 I want you to join now.

00:42:27.200 AMAC.US slash Beck.

00:42:29.040 Join now.

00:42:47.300 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:42:53.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:02.160 Hello, America.

00:43:03.660 It's Friday.

00:43:05.700 And Bill O'Reilly joins us in 60 seconds.

00:43:12.400 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:14.480 So Nancy lives in Texas. 0.88

00:43:15.960 She writes in about her experience with Relief Factor.

00:43:18.020 She says, I love Relief Factor.

00:43:20.300 I can do so much more now.

00:43:22.140 After teaching riding lessons and taking care of my five horses daily, I used to be so tired.

00:43:29.260 But now I can keep on going, getting more yard work, housework, and cooking done on top of everything else.

00:43:35.160 I have more stamina because I don't hurt.

00:43:38.740 It feels so good to be able to do the things I used to do.

00:43:43.560 It did take a couple of months on Relief Factor for me to get the full effect.

00:43:47.100 It began quickly, but to get the full effect, it took a couple of months for me.

00:43:52.020 I keep taking it, and the improvement is amazing.

00:43:55.660 Thank you.

00:43:56.720 Thank you so much, Nancy, for all that you do.

00:44:00.000 And thank you for finding your life again.

00:44:03.140 We need everyone in the fight.

00:44:05.340 Now, Relief Factor is not a drug.

00:44:06.860 It is something that was developed by doctors, and 70% of the people who try it go on to order more.

00:44:13.640 Why would you do that unless you're seeing relief?

00:44:16.820 From Relief Factor, 800-583-84.

00:44:21.680 Get their quick start trial.

00:44:24.040 It's a three-week trial period.

00:44:25.580 You should know in three weeks whether it's going to work for you or not.

00:44:28.300 800-500-8384, 800-500-8384, or relieffactor.com.

00:44:40.180 So I love the Twitter feed, especially during the town hall on CNN from Bill O'Reilly.

00:44:50.280 Bill O'Reilly, I'm just going to read his Twitter feed here.

00:44:53.360 First 10 minutes of the Biden town hall, incredibly boring.

00:44:57.120 Boring, not just boring.

00:45:00.060 Tweet number two, 16 minutes in, and we're still on COVID.

00:45:06.640 The president says he listens to science.

00:45:10.120 Good to know.

00:45:11.440 Next, 30 minutes in, absolutely no news has been made other than the president wants school kids under 12 to wear masks.

00:45:20.000 Next tweet, a commercial break, thank God.

00:45:23.820 Next, I'm not being facetious.

00:45:26.200 No joke.

00:45:27.400 I'm being serious.

00:45:29.000 This town hall is tedious beyond belief.

00:45:32.420 And the last one is, it's almost over.

00:45:35.980 No joke.

00:45:37.220 I'm serious.

00:45:38.900 Bill O'Reilly, welcome to the program, sir.

00:45:42.640 Here's the deal.

00:45:44.300 It was painful.

00:45:45.600 It was a painful thing to watch.

00:45:48.140 I waited for the clips.

00:45:49.400 I knew this in advance, Bill.

00:45:51.940 I knew this in advance.

00:45:54.180 But we have to do our jobs as guardians of the country.

00:45:59.660 Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, guardians of the nation.

00:46:02.820 So I'm in a house.

00:46:05.820 Someone was nice enough to invite my son and I over for dinner.

00:46:09.220 There were a few people in attendance.

00:46:13.300 And after dinner, we sat down and watched Don Lemon.

00:46:16.720 Always a treat.

00:46:18.240 Always a treat.

00:46:19.400 You know that.

00:46:20.020 Oh, my God.

00:46:21.080 Well, he's one of the most well-informed reporters in the nation.

00:46:24.960 I don't know if you know that.

00:46:25.980 I like Don Lemon personally, but, you know, I mean, I know what I'm going to get from Don.

00:46:33.340 But anyway, about halfway through, it was an hour and 20 minutes, there was almost a brawl in the house.

00:46:39.140 People trying to grab the remote to turn anything else on.

00:46:44.480 Okay?

00:46:45.440 Anything.

00:46:47.140 Anything.

00:46:48.480 It's Ben Gouillon with Revenge of the Mummy.

00:46:52.640 Get that.

00:46:53.580 Oh, so bad.

00:46:54.580 So bad.

00:46:55.540 It was.

00:46:57.200 And then when the ratings come in, a million five.

00:47:02.400 Now, if people don't understand the ratings, if I got a million five viewers.

00:47:09.320 You would have been in trouble.

00:47:11.200 I would have committed suicide. 0.99

00:47:12.820 Yeah.

00:47:13.320 No.

00:47:13.740 Your average night, if I'm not mistaken, was about three million.

00:47:18.720 About five.

00:47:19.940 Oh, is it five?

00:47:20.660 Because we had the two runs.

00:47:23.620 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:47:25.680 And five to six million.

00:47:26.720 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:47:27.740 Would turn in.

00:47:29.160 And that, I knew he was going to get, I knew that the rate was going to be low.

00:47:33.560 I didn't think they were going to be that low.

00:47:35.260 And also, I wanted to, this is another topic, but the Olympics this summer are going to get wiped out in the range.

00:47:41.140 Oh, yeah.

00:47:41.620 I mean, nobody.

00:47:42.440 Oh, yeah.

00:47:42.760 Nobody.

00:47:43.320 Nobody cares.

00:47:44.300 In fact, I think people are rooting.

00:47:46.160 We may have a situation to where, remember, Bill, what we used to have the Soviet Union to root against?

00:47:53.760 Yeah.

00:47:54.080 We may have that situation again, except we'll be rooting against America. 0.69

00:47:59.680 Well, I don't know about that, but I know that I'm the women's soccer team.

00:48:05.740 Uh-huh.

00:48:06.360 I mean, they're so.

00:48:08.620 Oh, I know.

00:48:09.280 But we got, look, Sweden beat the U.S. women's soccer team three to nothing.

00:48:17.920 Now, just step back a moment.

00:48:19.600 There is no grass in Sweden.

00:48:21.820 They have to practice on glaciers.

00:48:24.740 It's just frozen.

00:48:26.640 And they beat our team three to nothing.

00:48:31.480 Okay?

00:48:31.760 And, I mean, I'm sitting there going, Sweden, nine million people, America, 320 million people, many of them female.

00:48:41.380 I got to tell you. 0.97

00:48:42.260 We got our butts kicked three nuts.

00:48:44.380 Look, I said to the U.S. women's soccer team coach, maybe you might want to do a little less kneeling and a little more running. 0.97

00:48:55.380 Run and shoot.

00:48:56.620 I have to tell you, the European Handball Federation has fined the Norway Women's Beach Handball Team.

00:49:07.340 I don't know if you heard this.

00:49:09.720 All right.

00:49:10.480 I haven't.

00:49:11.300 You haven't?

00:49:12.100 Oh, this is great.

00:49:13.500 I heard it.

00:49:14.120 Okay, so the Norwegian Women's Beach Handball Team, they were fined.

00:49:19.260 They came out onto the scene wearing shorts, and that's against the league policy.

00:49:28.100 They're supposed to wear bikini bottoms. 1.00

00:49:31.600 Oh.

00:49:32.060 So I just, I mean, when we are more woke and, I mean, we've turned into the worst country in Europe.

00:49:47.440 We have just turned into the one with France. 0.93

00:49:50.400 Okay, I'm going to just say it.

00:49:51.760 France.

00:49:52.220 We have turned into France when Europe looks like, oh, that's crazy, huh?

00:49:59.460 They got their women's team wearing bikinis. 1.00

00:50:03.680 Something's wrong.

00:50:04.740 Something's wrong.

00:50:06.300 I don't know how you play handball on the beach.

00:50:08.840 Don't you need a wall and some kind of floor?

00:50:12.680 I don't know, Bill.

00:50:14.680 You're asking the wrong guy.

00:50:16.600 I have no idea.

00:50:18.840 All right.

00:50:19.240 So, Bill, there's a couple of things that I want to talk to you about.

00:50:22.440 First is Amy Klobuchar.

00:50:24.840 Do you think this is the big story of the week, or what do you think the big story is?

00:50:30.340 Well, Amy Klobuchar wants to limit speech, right? 1.00

00:50:34.380 Is that what you're talking about?

00:50:35.100 Yeah, the COVID misinformation, and she wants HHS to be able to label people, you know,

00:50:43.440 who are engaged in dangerous misinformation.

00:50:48.320 Yes.

00:50:48.980 It sounds a lot like the Soviet Union.

00:50:51.440 Sure does.

00:50:52.920 Because, and I'm not being facetious here.

00:50:55.200 No joke.

00:50:55.640 Joe Biden might say.

00:50:57.300 This is no joke.

00:50:57.960 Right.

00:50:58.340 Okay.

00:50:59.380 Being serious.

00:51:00.280 All kidding aside, yes.

00:51:02.320 Next week is the anniversary in 1943 of Joseph Stalin passing a law in the Soviet Union during

00:51:10.080 World War II that imprisoned anyone who was a coward.

00:51:16.060 That was the law. 0.81

00:51:17.820 Now, of course, Stalin was the one who decided if you were a coward or not.

00:51:22.820 So now, in America, we have Amy Klobuchar saying, hey, if you say something that we, the federal

00:51:32.000 government, don't like about COVID, we're going to go after you.

00:51:37.340 Now, what's the difference between old Joe Stalin and young Amy Klobuchar?

00:51:43.180 Well, they will say that you are misinforming people right now, Bill, because this is a health

00:51:50.140 issue, and the Klobuchar says that there has to be an exception here for health misinformation

00:51:57.780 because health information is deadly.

00:52:01.980 Well, we already know that climate change is a health issue.

00:52:07.040 We know that Antifa and their riots over the summer because of race, that was worse.

00:52:15.680 This is the CDC.

00:52:17.480 That was worse than the pandemic, the pandemic of racism in America.

00:52:23.000 We know that guns are a health issue.

00:52:26.720 I mean, pretty much this is the this is the threshold.

00:52:30.720 You cross this threshold and freedom of speech is done.

00:52:35.200 Well, there's no doubt that progressive left wants to limit freedom of expression and thought

00:52:40.460 in America.

00:52:41.220 And no one could deny that.

00:52:43.580 I mean, I guess Don Lemon might, but no one really could say, no, no, these are real ACLU

00:52:51.600 people that want freedom of expression.

00:52:53.780 And by the way, the ACLU is not the ACLU.

00:52:56.780 Right.

00:52:57.320 They're not.

00:52:58.040 They're right on board with, hey, you know, if we don't like what you're saying, you got

00:53:02.960 to go to jail.

00:53:03.840 Sorry.

00:53:05.020 You know, and you know what?

00:53:07.240 We're going to have bail.

00:53:08.180 We're not going to have bail for the people who commit manslaughter.

00:53:10.960 I'll let them right out.

00:53:12.300 But you know, you got to go away.

00:53:15.860 Yep.

00:53:16.300 So this trend and you're right to point out that what Senator Klobuchar is doing is trying

00:53:22.740 to normalize this stuff.

00:53:24.960 All right.

00:53:26.040 Yes.

00:53:26.460 We're doing this to protect you because of if Lenny down the street doesn't want to

00:53:32.460 get back, he's a danger to you.

00:53:34.960 I'm not sure about that.

00:53:36.500 Why would he be a danger to me if Lenny's an anti-vaxxer?

00:53:40.420 I don't care.

00:53:41.680 Does that influence me?

00:53:43.500 No.

00:53:44.080 I do what my doctor recommends, which I think everyone should do.

00:53:48.680 All right.

00:53:48.940 And then I go on.

00:53:50.320 I don't really care about Lenny.

00:53:52.340 Lenny wants to live in the basement unvaxxed.

00:53:55.900 That's OK with me.

00:53:57.520 He's not.

00:53:58.200 But Lenny is going to get out and he's going to infect other people.

00:54:02.560 I know.

00:54:03.060 It's kind of like that zombie thing, you know?

00:54:05.180 And that's really the genesis of the whole anti-vax movement.

00:54:09.400 The anti-vax movement kind of believes that the government somehow is involved with this

00:54:13.820 vaccine, which is true to the extent that Trump got it up and running.

00:54:18.300 And that's the lead, as I told you, on the Trump O'Reilly history tour.

00:54:22.440 How did you do it?

00:54:23.240 But the anti-vax movement believes that somehow the government has put little chips in there

00:54:29.520 and they're going to track you.

00:54:31.500 Correct.

00:54:31.820 OK, fine.

00:54:32.720 Believe that.

00:54:33.560 Fine.

00:54:34.040 But here's a very interesting thing.

00:54:36.140 While Amy Klobuchar and the progressive left are pounding the anti-vaxxers, they don't say

00:54:42.120 a word about African-Americans who won't get vaccinated.

00:54:45.780 And that, of all the ethnic groups in America, African-Americans have the lowest vaxxed rate.

00:54:53.500 And number two, Bill, number two, Hispanics.

00:54:57.700 Whites.

00:54:58.600 So I think Hispanics and whites are just about tied. 0.96

00:55:02.000 But it's the problem as far as vaxxing on the ethnic front is with African-Americans. 0.83

00:55:09.940 And then you get Biden out there going, well, we understand that problem because of Tuskegee

00:55:15.380 and on the past.

00:55:17.220 And I know you're looking at the guy going, wait a minute.

00:55:19.680 Do we live in a country where everyone is treated the same?

00:55:22.940 Obviously, we don't.

00:55:23.720 And it goes right back to the equity thing, like, well, we're going to give certain groups

00:55:29.080 a pass and they can really do what they want, even if they're public health dangers.

00:55:33.940 So you never hear Klobuchar say that.

00:55:36.360 All right.

00:55:37.120 About African-Americans.

00:55:38.580 And I'm saying to myself, look, you know, the real threat to America is not from China

00:55:46.600 and it's not from COVID.

00:55:48.180 It's from we are turning on each other because the media is pushing the progressive left dictum

00:55:58.160 that some groups and some people in America are more entitled to better treatment than

00:56:03.920 others.

00:56:04.860 And that's going to tear the nation apart.

00:56:08.000 Of course it is.

00:56:09.120 Bill, let me let me ask you.

00:56:11.880 When you say that the the biggest threat against the nation is the progressive movement, it

00:56:19.960 is I think the progressive movement has turned into the Marxist movement now.

00:56:24.360 Would you separate the traditional Democrat liberal from that group?

00:56:33.040 Yes.

00:56:33.660 I mean, I know a lot of traditional Democrats who are not progressive nuts and who don't

00:56:39.280 really know how to handle the situation now.

00:56:41.880 They're very confused on how to handle it because the progressives have the megaphone.

00:56:49.180 So right off the top of your head, everybody listening to Beck and O'Reilly right now, name

00:56:54.140 one progress, one so-called moderate Democrat in the country that has any influence right

00:56:59.840 now.

00:57:00.840 Name one.

00:57:02.720 You can't.

00:57:04.380 There's not one Hubert Humphrey.

00:57:06.600 There's not one Jimmy Carter.

00:57:09.000 There's nobody.

00:57:09.900 And you can't say Biden because Biden is captured.

00:57:13.520 He's being held.

00:57:14.320 Yeah.

00:57:14.680 He is.

00:57:15.100 Not by the progressive left.

00:57:20.660 I mean, I don't know whether I'm sure this registered with you, but violent crime is like

00:57:25.680 the second issue among Americans.

00:57:27.740 Oh, my gosh.

00:57:28.420 It's it's gone through the roof.

00:57:30.340 Right, right.

00:57:31.760 And so Biden is up there for at least eight minutes explaining how cracking down on gun

00:57:38.620 stores is going to stop violent crime.

00:57:41.600 Nobody believes that.

00:57:42.480 There is literally nobody on Earth with an IQ over 100 that believes that or could possibly

00:57:50.260 believe it.

00:57:51.380 Yet there he is yammering about he's going to get a task force.

00:57:55.020 He's going to bring in bazookas.

00:57:56.960 I'll have more guns. 0.97

00:57:58.260 I'll blow them up because that we got to stop violent crime. 0.98

00:58:02.700 And then he goes.

00:58:03.300 And by the way, community policing.

00:58:05.780 I mean, we don't need to arrest drug gang thugs who are gunning down children.

00:58:12.260 No, we're going to bring in a social worker with the cops. 1.00

00:58:17.240 OK, it's like a remake of Dragnet with Jack Webb.

00:58:21.240 You remember that show?

00:58:22.120 Yeah.

00:58:22.360 Yeah.

00:58:23.400 OK, but in the backseat, there's a shrink.

00:58:28.800 I mean, I'm just a fact.

00:58:30.120 But here's Dr.

00:58:31.640 Ruth, who's going to talk to you about why your son decapitated by, you know, really,

00:58:38.120 really the president of the United States.

00:58:40.940 Well, hang on.

00:58:41.740 I want to go.

00:58:42.280 I want to go.

00:58:42.740 Well, I want to finish this particularly about the police and Joe Biden in 60 seconds.

00:58:47.960 First, let me tell you about rec tech.

00:58:49.640 I've been talking about rec tech now for over a year, year and a half.

00:58:53.220 And I have one.

00:58:54.220 And it is a game changer.

00:58:57.500 Stu is coming over tonight.

00:58:59.220 Stu, tonight are we getting together or is it tomorrow?

00:59:01.780 I don't know.

00:59:02.140 I'm not sure yet.

00:59:03.600 I may be busy.

00:59:04.780 It's not going to happen.

00:59:05.820 Well, apparently we're waiting for your wife to respond to a text message. 1.00

00:59:09.520 I don't know.

00:59:09.860 Obviously, we sit in the same room.

00:59:11.880 We can't actually plan this ourselves.

00:59:13.480 I know.

00:59:14.080 We were supposed to get together.

00:59:16.160 We were going to make a pizza on rec tech and then go to a movie.

00:59:20.360 But our wives can't get it worked out for some reason. 1.00

00:59:23.840 Anyway, right now, this week only, if you just call in, you're going to save 10% site wide.

01:00:07.460 10 seconds.

01:00:08.380 Station ID.

01:00:09.120 All right, Mr. Bill O'Reilly.

01:00:23.520 So, the president, the president said, and I want to quote, these people.

01:00:29.660 No, I mean it.

01:00:30.820 I'm not being facetious.

01:00:33.000 Democrats and Republicans, I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.

01:00:36.760 The fact is, you can't look at television and say nothing happened on January 6th.

01:00:43.960 You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

01:00:48.540 No, I'm serious.

01:00:50.360 Think about it.

01:00:51.580 Think of the things being said.

01:00:53.980 Now, I've been through the other end of this when the Democrats 35 years ago were way off on the other side.

01:00:59.640 Think about it.

01:01:00.600 I'm serious.

01:01:02.200 Okay, so I've got a couple of questions here.

01:01:03.980 You can't listen to people who tell you to don't believe your eyes, what you see on television, and say that that was a peaceful march.

01:01:14.340 Well, he's only talking about January 6th.

01:01:16.760 I don't know anybody who is actually saying that that was peaceful.

01:01:20.720 The people outside were peaceful.

01:01:22.940 Some of the people were peaceful.

01:01:25.120 Some of the people were extraordinarily violent.

01:01:27.220 And we should be talking about those people.

01:01:29.880 But doesn't that work, Bill, when you say the people on television continue today to say that what's happening in Portland is peaceful?

01:01:41.320 What happened all throughout last summer was peaceful?

01:01:44.220 Well, I mean, I'm not, I'm not sure what your question is.

01:01:51.280 So how can he, how do it, does anybody, are there people out there that still don't see that when he says you can't listen to people on television that will say this was a peaceful march?

01:02:07.540 And I don't know who those people are.

01:02:09.260 I don't hear that.

01:02:11.320 I don't know what channel Joe is watching.

01:02:13.580 I don't even know if Joe knows what channel he's watching.

01:02:16.300 But the progressive left, and that's who Joe represents, they want to continue to demonize anybody who voted for Donald Trump by saying, you know, it's your fault.

01:02:28.060 That Capitol riot is your fault.

01:02:31.000 If you voted for Trump and you like Trump, that's your fault.

01:02:34.540 See, that's the strategy.

01:02:35.560 So that they'll keep it around.

01:02:38.360 And, you know, what really caught my attention this week was Liz Cheney. 0.99

01:02:43.840 So Liz Cheney is a very conservative woman. 1.00

01:02:46.920 I don't think she's going to be reelected in Wyoming.

01:02:49.480 She's going to be primaried. 1.00

01:02:51.280 And I think she'll lose.

01:02:53.240 But Liz Cheney hates Donald Trump. 1.00

01:02:56.200 She despises him because Trump said bad things about her father.

01:03:00.320 And I understand that.

01:03:03.080 But now she's so crazed about Donald Trump that she says that Nancy Pelosi is basically an objective leader.

01:03:14.300 I know.

01:03:14.920 When it comes to investigating the Capitol riot.

01:03:18.640 So this is what Liz Cheney put out there. 0.89

01:03:21.480 And you don't want Jim Jordan on it?

01:03:23.280 You don't want Jim Jordan there?

01:03:25.340 She's furious with the Republicans who now are not going to participate in Pelosi's investigation because they wouldn't put Jordan and the other guy from Indiana on the panel.

01:03:39.080 And so I'm going, are you kidding me, lady? 0.98

01:03:41.240 I know.

01:03:41.980 And this is the first time in American history this has ever happened.

01:03:47.820 Nancy Pelosi did something unprecedented by saying, yeah, we're not going to we're not listening to the other side.

01:03:54.340 We're not putting those people on.

01:03:56.160 Never happened before in American history.

01:05:23.120 We have more with Bill O'Reilly next.

01:05:25.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:05:34.860 So glad that you've tuned in today.

01:05:36.340 It's Friday.

01:05:36.900 Mr. Bill O'Reilly is with us today to give us a look at what's been happening this week.

01:05:43.340 Minneapolis City Council has advanced the plan to replace the police, Bill.

01:05:49.340 Meanwhile, the president and his administration are saying that the ones who want to defund the police are the Republicans.

01:05:59.440 Yeah, it's just propaganda.

01:06:01.080 So I don't even bother with that.

01:06:02.460 But this is not a hard issue.

01:06:05.040 So when I was a local news reporter in New York City at Channel 2 WCBS in the 1980s, New York City was a horrific place to be.

01:06:16.560 It was a crack thing coming in, heroin all over the place, drug addicts running wild, assaults.

01:06:24.280 You couldn't walk in Central Park after dusk.

01:06:29.080 It was horrible.

01:06:30.360 And a lot of my reporting was centered on that, so I know what I'm talking about.

01:06:35.340 And then in the 1990s, it got so bad, they elected Rudy Giuliani as mayor.

01:06:40.800 And Giuliani came in with U.S. attorney credentials and basically reorganized the police force to be a very, very aggressive, punitive force in the sense that it would arrest you.

01:06:53.620 You jumped over a turnstile in the subway.

01:06:56.340 If you did graffiti, you would be taken in.

01:06:58.900 You would be prosecuted.

01:07:00.360 Well, the violent crime in New York was cut in half, sometimes even more than that.

01:07:05.820 Murders went from a high of about 3,500, 3,500 a year to 350.

01:07:12.360 So you can see.

01:07:13.920 Then Bloomberg came in and he kept all of the Giuliani policies, the stop and frisk, the aggressive gun seizures on the street, and crime stayed very low.

01:07:24.720 So that's a fact.

01:07:26.540 There's no theory about it.

01:07:29.520 There's no doubt about it.

01:07:31.580 That happened over a almost 20-year period in New York City.

01:07:37.420 So then when de Blasio took over the communists, he just blasted all of that out and said to the criminals, you can do what you want because it's society's fault.

01:07:48.260 Not your fault.

01:07:49.480 You're beating up the old grandmother and firing a weapon that might hit children.

01:07:54.520 Not your fault.

01:07:55.560 It's because you were deprived growing up.

01:07:57.420 That's de Blasio.

01:07:58.660 And then the whole system, Cuomo, the governor, the DAs, all cooperated.

01:08:04.980 And now we have a horror in New York City.

01:08:08.140 So I'm telling you about New York and not Minneapolis because I'm an eyewitness to this.

01:08:12.440 No, I know.

01:08:13.100 I know.

01:08:13.700 And it's the same everywhere.

01:08:15.840 I mean, Bill, any place that has defunded the police or really vilified the police, some cities, Los Angeles is in total chaos.

01:08:27.100 People are going into places like Target.

01:08:30.160 I just read a story.

01:08:32.580 I can't remember where it was, but a group of people walked into a Target.

01:08:37.240 They just grabbed things off of the rack and they walked out.

01:08:42.480 The store owner said they didn't even run.

01:08:46.400 They're not afraid at all.

01:08:48.740 They just walked out.

01:08:51.280 Because they won't be prosecuted or arrested.

01:08:54.500 Yep.

01:08:55.380 So this is a fact.

01:08:56.360 That's the baseline for every American who cares about his or her country or the crime issue.

01:09:02.100 And then you have the president of the United States getting up there and saying, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:09:07.340 The way to solve violent crime is to put a social worker in the backseat of the police car when the call comes in.

01:09:14.440 There's a guy with a gun pointed at the head of his girlfriend or whatever.

01:09:19.320 That's the way to do it.

01:09:20.780 No, no, no, no.

01:09:21.600 And so to me, that's insulting. 1.00

01:09:25.820 Number one, I'm insulted by the president of the United States being so dumb. 1.00

01:09:34.400 It's subversive. 1.00

01:09:36.040 It's what the president of the United States is doing.

01:09:39.400 And remember, this stuff goes all over the world.

01:09:41.360 He's basically saying, look, I'm not going to solve the violent crime problem because closing down a bad gun store is not going to do it.

01:09:51.120 Oh, here's a bulletin.

01:09:52.980 The violent drug gang criminals already have guns, Joe.

01:09:57.140 And they didn't get them from the gun store.

01:09:59.260 All right.

01:09:59.680 They didn't they didn't buy retail.

01:10:02.600 OK.

01:10:03.120 All right.

01:10:05.380 So there he is, totally befuddled about everything.

01:10:08.920 No joke.

01:10:09.500 I'm not being facetious.

01:10:10.940 Totally befuddled.

01:10:12.260 All right.

01:10:12.900 Meanwhile, thousands of people, mostly minorities, are dying in the streets while he's up there telling Don Lemon.

01:10:20.540 Hey, no, we need to get community policing and put up a few volleyball nets and all these drug guys are going to stop. 0.99

01:10:28.660 I mean, really just break it down to what it is.

01:10:32.260 And it's frightening.

01:10:35.400 Well, here's here's.

01:10:36.840 Subversive.

01:10:37.280 Yeah.

01:10:38.100 Subversive is a better word.

01:10:39.620 I because the strike force that he's put together for these, you know, the gun trafficking in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington, D.C.

01:10:50.440 They're launching the Justice Department, launching a strike force in those cities.

01:10:55.600 So this is to stop the gun violence.

01:10:59.240 No, it's not.

01:11:00.200 This is to stop guns.

01:11:04.760 This is the you watch.

01:11:07.320 This is the Bloomberg dream of getting people in the federal government getting in to stop guns.

01:11:15.060 I don't think that they're going to be looking for gun trafficking.

01:11:18.480 They're going to be they're going to be going after guns.

01:11:22.200 They're making a case and they will say the problem in Chicago is that they have access to guns and we've got to stop the access to guns.

01:11:32.640 But don't bother the criminals.

01:11:35.660 Don't even arrest them.

01:11:37.840 Correct.

01:11:38.360 Because they're victims of a bad, horrible America.

01:11:43.080 I don't know if I don't know if I don't know if you've you've seen what happened in where was it?

01:11:49.260 St.

01:11:49.540 Louis, the St.

01:11:51.000 Louis circuit attorney is they now say has essentially abandoned its duty.

01:11:58.640 Her office.

01:11:59.780 She is a huge beneficiary of money from George Soros, George Soros.

01:12:08.660 Yep.

01:12:09.260 And she didn't.

01:12:11.060 They didn't even show up for a group of court cases, which led to the release of a murder suspect.

01:12:18.100 Nobody cares.

01:12:21.580 The subversive.

01:12:23.680 No, I think the American people care.

01:12:25.980 But I think that in the election next year, 2022, that is one of the most important elections in American history.

01:12:36.680 So if Americans don't come out and say, look, we may not like Republicans or conservatives, but we cannot watch our country be destroyed by the progressive left.

01:12:49.160 We cannot.

01:12:51.020 It's got to be not a squeaker.

01:12:54.360 It's got to be that overwhelmingly the progressive left Democratic Party is rejected in 2022.

01:13:03.000 If that does not happen with all of all of the corporate media, and I mean all of it now, on the side of the progressives promoting propaganda from the left, if the American people are not smart enough to do that or motivated enough to do it, to go out.

01:13:22.820 All right.

01:13:23.780 Then this country is now is then going to descend into tribes.

01:13:27.900 So it'll be each tribe hires its own personal security, does what it wants to do, but there's not going to be any cooperation among we the people.

01:13:40.900 We'll break down, just like they did in medieval times. 0.64

01:13:44.820 And I don't think people understand how important 2022 is.

01:13:48.980 It is vital for this country to stop the madness, literally stop the madness, because that's what we're experiencing now.

01:13:58.680 And Joe Biden is going to go down.

01:14:00.680 I said this very early on, as might be the worst president of the United States.

01:14:05.240 It's going to be close between him and James Buchanan.

01:14:07.920 I will tell you, if it doesn't go down, if things don't change in 2022, he may go down as the last president of the United States.

01:14:18.060 I mean, I don't see that.

01:14:20.400 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:14:21.740 Let me let me say let me say it this way.

01:14:23.800 Not in name, but in who we actually have always been.

01:14:29.260 Well, a country will definitely veer out.

01:14:32.140 You know, you mentioned we're not we will not we are not abiding by constitutional norms.

01:14:37.660 Now, we're not abiding by the the Bill of Rights right now.

01:14:42.560 Now, everything that they're doing is much of it is and anti-constitution and anti-Bill of Rights.

01:14:51.140 Yeah, they don't want the Constitution.

01:14:52.840 But even more importantly and more serious is that Americans have no protection anymore.

01:14:58.900 None.

01:14:59.160 The justice system is breaking down, particularly if you live in urban areas.

01:15:03.340 And this should infuriate African-Americans and poor of all colors because you don't have any protection. 0.99

01:15:10.140 There's nobody protecting you.

01:15:12.100 If somebody hurts you, no matter if it beats you up or shoots you or stabs you or breaks into your house or your car, the odds are those people are not going to pay a price for doing that.

01:15:24.620 I mean, every American has got to get out of their fog and understand exactly how dangerous Joe Biden is.

01:15:35.000 He looks like a girl. 0.99

01:15:36.220 Oh, you know, nice guy.

01:15:40.080 Oh, yeah.

01:15:41.060 The man is dangerous because he doesn't know or seemingly care what is actually happening inside the country.

01:15:51.640 You know, I talked to Devin.

01:15:53.260 Go ahead.

01:15:54.160 You and Stu are sitting in Dallas, right?

01:15:56.120 Yes.

01:15:56.760 Right.

01:15:57.040 OK.

01:15:58.380 Give me one problem.

01:16:00.700 One.

01:16:02.020 In this country, as we are talking, that President Biden has put forth a solution to.

01:16:09.700 I can't.

01:16:10.720 I can do the opposite.

01:16:12.140 There isn't any.

01:16:14.900 Inflation.

01:16:15.500 Oh, that's not so bad.

01:16:16.360 We don't worry about inflation.

01:16:19.400 OK.

01:16:20.360 Crime.

01:16:21.120 Oh, we're going to surround the gun stores.

01:16:23.280 That's how we're going to do it.

01:16:24.620 A border.

01:16:25.420 Taxes by taxes.

01:16:26.500 The economy.

01:16:27.400 No, no, no.

01:16:27.820 We're going to take all the money from the corporations and the Apple.

01:16:30.360 Well, Mr. President, that's going to shut down job creation. 1.00

01:16:33.440 Oh, no, no, no, no.

01:16:34.540 No, I created more jobs, which is the biggest con in the world.

01:16:38.000 He did not.

01:16:38.720 OK, because that was all covid and his baseline was a covid shutdown.

01:16:43.600 It's unbelievable.

01:16:44.940 And it's doing.

01:16:46.100 Yes, it is.

01:16:48.000 Bill, when you when you look at where we're at and Joe Biden as our as our president, you know, that one thing that nobody is talking about is the incredible.

01:17:03.360 Loss of consciousness, almost in that in that town hall, he went for.

01:17:12.700 Do we have the cut?

01:17:13.580 He went for almost 30 seconds, completely incoherent.

01:17:18.160 But yeah, I mean, it was bad to play and no one, you know, no one says anything about it.

01:17:27.160 Let me play the clip.

01:17:28.820 That's underway, just like the other question is illogical.

01:17:32.060 And I've heard you speak about it because you all I'm not being solicitous, but you're always straight up about what you're doing.

01:17:39.080 And the question is whether or not we should be in a position where you are.

01:17:45.740 Why can't the the the experts say we know that this virus is, in fact, it's going to be our assuming we know why all the drugs approved are not temporarily approved, permanently approved.

01:18:03.400 That's underway, too.

01:18:04.660 I expect that to occur quickly.

01:18:06.600 Nobody says a word.

01:18:07.460 Well, everybody was somnambulant.

01:18:10.700 They're unconscious.

01:18:11.880 I mean, did you see the crowd and the crowd for the first 15 minutes?

01:18:15.060 They're paying attention.

01:18:15.920 And then all of a sudden the phones came out and they're all get me out of here.

01:18:20.780 Can you send I call 911?

01:18:22.560 I want out of here.

01:18:23.600 Look, but I don't think there's anyone in the country, not even Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer would say we have an articulate president who can hold a thought in his mind and give a precise answer to a question.

01:18:36.440 We don't.

01:18:38.620 We don't.

01:18:39.300 And you know what the answer is when you present that to the liberal left?

01:18:42.740 Well, Trump was worse. 0.80

01:18:44.360 Everything was Trump was worse. 0.96

01:18:46.160 Right.

01:18:46.860 No matter what you say.

01:18:48.620 No, no. 0.89

01:18:48.960 Trump was worse.

01:18:50.100 You know, Trump.

01:18:50.820 And I now have a moratorium.

01:18:53.260 My liberal friends are not allowed to do that.

01:18:55.100 They are fined if they do that.

01:18:56.720 And I'm saying to myself, I do believe the Americans are going to rise up next year back.

01:19:04.040 I think they are going to do it now.

01:19:06.860 The corporate media is going to have to try to silence you and me.

01:19:11.040 They're going to try to do that.

01:19:12.400 And I did a thing on Bill O'Reilly dot com where I said to my audience on the No Spin News, I knew when I announced the Trump O'Reilly history tour that I would be attacked.

01:19:22.940 I knew it.

01:19:24.180 So I hired two high powered law firms, one on the West Coast, one on the East Coast to protect me because I knew it was coming.

01:19:33.600 And it did.

01:19:34.360 And my lawyers have done a fabulous job in trying to fend this off.

01:19:38.260 We do not do it in public.

01:19:40.260 We do not do any of that.

01:19:42.100 But because I signed on to try to get on the record the history of what Donald Trump did, actually did and did not do.

01:19:51.060 Why?

01:19:51.420 Why didn't the border go up?

01:19:52.580 Why didn't the border wall go up?

01:19:53.820 That'll be one of the questions.

01:19:54.740 Because I did that, there are elements, powerful elements, well-funded elements that want to destroy me. 0.86

01:20:02.340 If they could kill me, they would.

01:20:04.860 All right. 0.98

01:20:05.340 Now, Americans are going to start to figure this out, that we're in a danger zone.

01:20:10.280 Yeah.

01:20:10.560 My way to a danger zone.

01:20:12.260 Kenny Loggins.

01:20:12.960 I think we're already there.

01:20:15.760 And at least our audience understands that.

01:20:17.880 Bill, I've got to run.

01:20:18.540 I'm running really late.

01:26:23.440 You know, I remember the days when, you know, you'd send me a galley of the book and you were very excited and you'd be like, Glenn, I'm so excited.

01:26:35.560 You got to read this book.

01:26:37.220 And then it would come and it was autographed.

01:26:39.220 The only reason I know this is because I've been putting the books back in my shelf at the house and I have all of your books and most of the galleys and they're all autographed, say nice thing.

01:26:49.280 This time I just got something from a PR person.

01:26:51.740 What?

01:26:53.620 Here's your book, Glenn.

01:26:55.540 Oh, man. So, only Stu got to sign one this year.

01:26:59.480 Don't lie for him, Stu. Don't lie for him.

01:27:01.660 I will say the gold-plated, you know, display case was a little over the top, Brad, but I did appreciate it.

01:27:08.720 And I will tell you, I also said I was not talking to you again until, you know, until your hero, Scott, walks into a room and somebody's listening to the Glenn Beck program.

01:27:21.740 Or just renewing their subscription on the blaze.

01:27:25.280 It's not happening. It's not happening.

01:27:27.840 Brad, it's good to have you on.

01:27:29.860 You know, it's funny.

01:27:31.360 I didn't know you were coming on last week.

01:27:33.380 I didn't know you were coming on.

01:27:34.380 And I watched, what is it, American Assassin, the first movie of yours that was made.

01:27:42.540 And I forgot how good that was.

01:27:45.220 Really, really good.

01:27:47.600 That was Vince Flynn.

01:27:49.600 That was Vince Flynn's book.

01:27:51.100 Thanks a lot, Glenn.

01:27:52.160 No, no, no.

01:27:52.620 Okay, so it's not American Assassin.

01:27:54.040 Which one is it?

01:27:55.360 I don't have any movies yet, Glenn, but thank you.

01:27:58.200 Why don't you just pour some lemon juice in that paper cup while you're at it.

01:28:00.760 I thought that was really good.

01:28:03.320 It wasn't you that wrote it.

01:28:04.400 It was this axe I'm talking to here.

01:28:05.960 It wasn't you that wrote it.

01:28:07.300 I think Glenn's getting a little revenge for his lack of signed copy.

01:28:10.960 Uh-huh.

01:28:11.980 I just thought it was really good.

01:28:14.440 Did you write The Hunt for Red October?

01:28:16.900 Because I watched that and it was really good.

01:28:21.120 Nope, didn't write that one either.

01:28:22.580 Wow.

01:28:23.920 Huh.

01:28:24.300 So what have you written or done?

01:28:27.720 I got a couple.

01:28:28.820 I got a couple out there.

01:28:30.040 How many?

01:28:30.540 What is this?

01:28:31.180 The 20th or 19th?

01:28:34.240 20th in the Scott Harvath series.

01:28:35.940 Yeah.

01:28:36.380 Black Ice.

01:28:37.680 And this one, he's, you know, it starts and he's on vacation or, well, he's having a good summer.

01:28:45.900 And he's on the fjord.

01:28:48.480 And he's got a girl.

01:28:49.580 Hello with his very attractive girlfriend who works for the Norwegian Intelligence Service.

01:28:54.640 And I'm not even going to try to pronounce it because it has an O with a slash through it.

01:28:58.580 So.

01:28:59.060 Solvy.

01:28:59.780 Solvy.

01:29:00.180 Solvy Kolstad.

01:29:00.840 Okay.

01:29:01.340 All right.

01:29:01.640 So tell me why this book is as good as a Vince Flynn book.

01:29:08.700 Well, he's out of vacation days, out of sick days.

01:29:11.840 And DC calls, wants him back, or they want his resignation.

01:29:15.600 So he decides he's going to come back.

01:29:17.460 It's his calling.

01:29:18.200 He loves his job.

01:29:19.080 And he's getting ready to leave.

01:29:21.400 And he's walking out of a cafe in Oslo and sees a ghost climb out of a taxi cab.

01:29:26.520 Somebody he killed years ago, halfway around the world.

01:29:29.420 And that starts off a huge chase all the way up into the Arctic.

01:29:33.140 So here's the thing.

01:29:34.420 You and I have known each other.

01:29:36.220 We've been friends for a very, very long time.

01:29:37.980 And I, I, I think I coined the term, uh, faction is what you write, um, because it is, it's always based in facts.

01:29:50.180 And I can always tell what you're concerned about just by reading your books.

01:29:55.420 And in reading this one, you are, you are concerned about something happening in the Arctic, uh, and, and how far behind Russia and China are.

01:30:06.940 Um, uh, in the area, can you tell me what you were thinking on this?

01:30:13.280 So, uh, I've been friends with the former national security advisor, Robert O'Brien since college.

01:30:18.520 And this was a issue that I had brought up with him, uh, is China inserting itself into the Arctic.

01:30:25.100 So the Arctic is getting warmer and warmer and the ice is melting up there, which provides a lot of opportunities.

01:30:33.520 And China, suddenly the Russians were bad enough up there. 0.98

01:30:36.560 They've opened up 50, more than 50 old Cold War era bases up in the Arctic.

01:30:42.020 So they're moving very quickly up there.

01:30:44.040 And China has declared itself a quote unquote near Arctic state, which is the Seinfeld of diplomatic terms, because it means absolutely nothing.

01:30:51.920 The closest China is to the Arctic circle, any settlements over 800 miles away.

01:30:56.640 So China's trying to get a foothold up there. 1.00

01:30:59.240 They've got two icebreakers. 0.99

01:31:00.560 They're putting icebreakers up there.

01:31:01.740 We only have one and it doesn't work very well.

01:31:04.620 The Russians have 30. 0.86

01:31:06.580 We fell behind the curve.

01:31:08.060 Even Mike Pompeo said we are playing catch up in the Arctic.

01:31:11.300 And there are...

01:31:12.000 But why is it important that we're up in the Arctic?

01:31:15.080 So there are huge deposits of rare earth minerals, gas, oil.

01:31:21.560 There's a whole bunch of stuff up there that we're going to want access to on the commercial side.

01:31:25.580 On the national security side, we don't want Russia and China militarizing the Arctic and taking over that area.

01:31:32.680 China's been sneaking soldiers in, posing as scientists.

01:31:36.600 They're moving very quickly.

01:31:38.120 It is the next Cold War.

01:31:40.240 No pun intended, is what's going on up in the Arctic.

01:31:42.440 Okay, so that's what you're concerned about.

01:31:46.400 But you also, in it, and maybe it's just me, but I felt there was a little Eric Swalwell influence in this book.

01:31:59.840 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes.

01:32:02.260 So that's, yes, very good, yes.

01:32:05.160 So the Chinese have all these different forms of statecraft, and I joke in the book that they have as many forms of statecraft as the Eskimo have words for snow.

01:32:14.920 So there is a kind of a honeypot operation where someone, the Chinese are trying to get influence in D.C., 0.99

01:32:22.420 and they put a very attractive young woman, Chinese woman, Chinese woman living in L.A.,

01:32:27.140 up to sweetening a deal with somebody to try to get China's ends pushed through in Congress, correct?

01:32:35.900 Very good.

01:32:36.500 Did Swalwell, you know, I'm not a dummy.

01:32:39.040 I mean, I don't get, you know, any kind of phone calls from my friend to say, hey, I'm coming on or anything like that.

01:32:45.520 But I do.

01:32:47.540 I mean, I'm not a dummy.

01:32:48.440 I do read.

01:32:50.300 Did Swalwell play any role?

01:32:52.100 What, did Swalwell, the fang-fang thing, play any role in this? 0.98

01:32:56.720 Yeah, I think that was something that was, you know, I was clipping a lot of articles out of the paper when this was happening.

01:33:03.020 And, you know, there have been people that have been busted for not registering as a foreign agent.

01:33:08.140 That's another thing that really makes me mad.

01:33:10.480 In fact, they just busted another guy for lobbying on behalf of UAE Monday.

01:33:14.980 So that kind of stuff, people trying to exert influence on behalf of foreign nations and not registering as an agent is something that I don't like, particularly when it's Americans doing it.

01:33:25.320 I just think it's absolutely, it's terrible.

01:33:27.320 And I don't care what party you come from, you cannot do that.

01:33:30.820 You can't go in and try to lobby for China or somebody else and not, you know, basically wear it on your sleeve like a NASCAR uniform.

01:33:38.980 I want to know who's paying you.

01:33:40.280 Yeah.

01:33:40.700 You, the spy, says something in the book that stuck out.

01:33:45.000 I underlined it, said, don't think of it as China.

01:33:48.840 Think of it as a consortium of investors along with an experienced Chinese oil and gas corporation.

01:33:55.000 What do you mean by that?

01:33:57.440 So there is a lot of trying to put people at ease when they're making these deals.

01:34:03.660 The Chinese, they're very happy to, you know, let people wet their beak and make money off these deals. 1.00

01:34:09.940 And they phrase it and put it in certain terms so that people really can tell themselves, lie to themselves that they're not doing this on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party.

01:34:19.300 But that's exactly what's going on, regardless of who China puts up as a face on this thing.

01:34:24.020 And they, you know, the Chinese tried to buy a Canadian mining company in the Arctic so they could actually get some real estate in the Arctic that they could claim as theirs. 0.52

01:34:32.280 I mean, and the stuff they were doing in Norway, using a Chinese real estate investor and trying to use him to buy all this property up there.

01:34:40.700 So it is a creeping, endless thing as China pursues this Belt and Road Initiative where they're putting money all over the world and then trying to influence the politics and the governments where they're making heavy investments.

01:34:52.760 How bad are we, Brad?

01:34:56.460 Well, you know, we've got a lot of problems, and it goes back decades and over multiple administrations.

01:35:02.800 I mean, you know, under Clinton, there was the missile technology from Loral that got given to the Chinese.

01:35:08.360 And they bullied the crap out of American companies who do business in China to turn over their sensitive trade secrets and things like that.

01:35:17.200 So it's a bad thing.

01:35:19.040 But the thing that steams me the most is that they were putting the brakes on the WHO in the beginning of COVID so that they could go around the world and try to buy up the PPE.

01:35:27.960 They knew it was coming.

01:35:29.100 They knew how bad COVID was going to be.

01:35:31.180 And they still made the WHO drag their feet while they went around, you know, gobbling up masks and all sorts of stuff.

01:35:38.080 It's just we need to be much better as a country.

01:35:41.020 They are a national security threat.

01:35:42.580 Yet, if you're on cholesterol medication, guess where it comes from?

01:35:45.300 Yeah, I know.

01:35:45.780 China.

01:35:46.540 We have sold our souls to the Chinese. 1.00

01:35:49.960 I mean, we're looking. 1.00

01:35:51.300 We're the ones who invented the damn chip. 0.99

01:35:54.020 And now we get all of the chips. 0.99

01:35:55.840 GM has stopped making trucks.

01:35:58.040 And they say this chip shortage may go on until 2023.

01:36:03.680 Yeah, it's crazy.

01:36:05.940 And with two teens who needed cars, it's nuts what's going on.

01:36:12.120 And if we don't get control of our supply chains and stop manufacturing critical items like PPE and like medications in China, we're never going to be able to stand up to them when we need to. 0.93

01:36:22.420 When you look at I don't know if you saw what happened yesterday, but it it felt like something that China would do. 1.00

01:36:29.600 There came out and said that this was just a software update that caused a shutdown of like Bank of America's website, AT&T.

01:36:40.660 I mean, a whole list of giant corporations were offline yesterday for a while.

01:36:46.780 And I thought if this is a cyber attack, this shows how people are just don't do not take us seriously and how far behind we are in our infrastructure.

01:36:58.520 We and don't talk to me about the infrastructure Joe Biden is doing.

01:37:01.960 I mean, actual protection of our infrastructure.

01:37:05.580 We have I think we're already in a war with China and and Russia.

01:37:12.260 It's just a cyber war unlike we've ever seen before.

01:37:16.140 Are we prepared at all?

01:37:19.400 No, not on this front, not in what's called gray zone conflict, which is where the cyber attacks.

01:37:25.020 That's the term for the arena in which those are happening.

01:37:27.680 And Glenn, you and I years ago, years ago, talked about a white paper that was written by two Chinese PLA colonels called unrestricted warfare, where these Chinese strategists, military strategists said there is no way they could ever beat the United States on the conventional battlefield.

01:37:45.800 So they needed to find other ways, things that we took for granted and thought were harmless and could weaponize those and turn them against us and use them against us.

01:37:53.900 And that's where we're at. And we are woefully ill prepared to handle this kind of conflict.

01:38:00.420 And it's not going to let up. Look at the key. Look at the the the gas pipeline that got shut down with ransomware from those Russian hackers.

01:38:09.160 It's bad. And the Chinese, we hear all about the Russian hackers all the time.

01:38:12.860 But the Chinese are even more sophisticated.

01:38:15.220 They have office buildings just full of these people that all they do is hack and look for vulnerabilities all day long.

01:38:22.800 Brad Thor, the author of a new thriller that is out perfect for the summer.

01:38:28.520 It's called Black Ice. More in just a second.

01:38:32.480 He's also he's also the movie Born Identity.

01:38:36.360 Really? That was his. Very sure.

01:38:39.060 It's incredible. I mean, I would lose.

01:38:42.500 I'd lose respect for him if that wasn't his movie.

01:38:46.700 But all right. Let me tell you about Rough Greens.

01:38:49.200 As Ray lives in Alabama, he writes in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.

01:38:54.780 He says, we've tried our share of supplements with our dog, Boris.

01:38:59.040 Are you going to mess with a dog named Boris?

01:39:02.580 He would refuse any.

01:39:04.180 I'm not eating food without supplement on that.

01:39:06.920 He's a very finicky eater, and he'll refuse the food he doesn't like, regardless of how hungry he is.

01:39:13.260 We started Boris on just a trace of Rough Greens, and he was a little hesitant to try it.

01:39:18.140 However, we were able to get him to eat it.

01:39:20.340 And soon he would eagerly eat his meals without half to three quarters of the recommended dose.

01:39:26.260 Even with that, he's happier, healthier.

01:39:28.980 He's ready to play at a moment's notice.

01:39:31.380 Glenn, thank you so much.

01:39:32.940 Ray, thank you for giving it a try.

01:39:34.580 And I love the fact that you named your dog Boris.

01:39:37.940 It's not a dog food.

01:39:39.520 It's something you put on your dog's food.

01:39:41.580 It's a supplement filled with all the things that make your dog healthier and happier.

01:39:45.480 And you can get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog just to try out.

01:39:48.980 All you pay for is shipping.

01:39:50.840 Just go to roughgreens.com slash back or call 833-GLEN-33.

01:39:55.540 That's 833-GLEN-33.

01:39:58.200 Call him today.

01:39:58.900 10 seconds.

01:39:59.460 Station ID.

01:40:04.580 Mr. Brad Thor.

01:40:16.620 Hello, Glenn.

01:40:18.980 It's been a long time, Brad.

01:40:20.020 It's great to have you back on, man.

01:40:21.480 Oh, yeah.

01:40:21.980 I'm loving this one.

01:40:23.100 Lots of fun.

01:40:24.720 Did you forget about how much you loved being interviewed by Glenn Beck?

01:40:28.880 Uh-huh.

01:40:29.080 Did you, uh, career, all-time career high today.

01:40:32.280 This is great.

01:40:32.920 Did you ever, uh, were you ever interviewed by Amis?

01:40:38.220 What, was I ever what?

01:40:39.860 Interviewed by Amis.

01:40:41.380 Oh, God, yeah. 1.00

01:40:42.300 He was, he told me he was going to come down to Nashville and whoop my ass. 1.00

01:40:45.600 He was, he was a rough guy. 0.99

01:40:47.540 And I said, who's going to hold the oxygen bottle for you, Don?

01:40:51.040 Wow.

01:40:51.560 I step on your hose.

01:40:52.740 That's it.

01:40:53.300 Game over, old man.

01:40:54.580 Yeah, he was great.

01:40:56.680 Well, I just wanted to make you feel like you were on the Amis in the Morning program today.

01:41:01.660 Thanks a lot.

01:41:02.440 You're welcome.

01:41:03.960 Call my therapist now.

01:41:06.020 Well, I mean, you need somebody to take you down a notch.

01:41:10.060 You know, you're, you're walking around.

01:41:12.360 Oh, I've got, I've got 20, you know, 20 number one bestsellers.

01:41:15.860 Look at me.

01:41:16.480 I'm a big deal.

01:41:17.720 I don't need my friends anymore.

01:41:19.120 I don't need to send him a book.

01:41:21.240 I don't need to do that.

01:41:22.260 I get somebody else on my team to do that.

01:41:25.100 Make sure Jeffy hides the book in his office, Stu, please. 1.00

01:41:29.140 You jerk. 1.00

01:41:32.140 How have things been with you? 1.00

01:41:34.220 They've been good.

01:41:35.220 They've been good.

01:41:35.920 You know, we tried to find the bright spot in the pandemic with, you know, our daughters

01:41:40.040 leaving for college in a couple of weeks.

01:41:41.720 And we said, when were we going to get the chance to have our teenagers home 24 hours

01:41:46.060 a day, seven days a week?

01:41:47.760 And that was, it was looking at the bright, that lasts a couple of days.

01:41:51.080 That was.

01:41:51.480 Yeah, we, we didn't enjoy it for very long.

01:41:57.000 We enjoyed it for about, I think, three months.

01:42:00.300 And then it got really dicey, really dicey.

01:42:03.820 And we had to fumigate my son's room.

01:42:06.500 But it was, it was tough.

01:42:09.460 It was tough.

01:42:10.220 I mean, at the end, I think our family is closer than it's ever been.

01:42:15.680 But it was really tough.

01:42:17.440 And they're talking about doing it again.

01:42:19.640 Yeah, that's the, that's the scary thing.

01:42:21.980 I'm watching this.

01:42:22.820 And, you know, my wife, Trish, is a doc, and she came from a medical research background

01:42:27.100 before she ever became a doctor.

01:42:28.700 And, you know, we're eyeballing the, the, the Delta variant.

01:42:32.100 But what scared the crap out of me this week is how now all the Republicans are coming out

01:42:37.220 telling people to get vaccinated.

01:42:38.620 Mitch McConnell and, you know, Hannity, Sean Hannity saying stuff.

01:42:42.720 Everybody's singing from the same hymnal all of a sudden.

01:42:45.140 And it makes me wonder what the Biden administration reached out and told them, because now everybody's

01:42:50.360 coordinated.

01:42:51.260 So I will tell you, I'll tell you what happened at Fox with me.

01:42:55.360 There was a point where I was called into an office and they said, you got to stop talking.

01:43:01.100 I don't even remember what it was.

01:43:02.700 Stop talking about this.

01:43:04.520 And I said, hmm.

01:43:06.860 And they said, look, you're destroying the network.

01:43:09.300 Um, you know, they said, we can't get, we are being told we will be blocked from every

01:43:16.320 press conference, uh, unless you stop talking about such and such.

01:43:21.640 And I didn't stop talking about it.

01:43:24.860 Uh, it was a rough, a rough few months there towards the end.

01:43:28.240 But, uh, I, I think, you know, the white house has an awful lot of power when it comes

01:43:33.040 to news.

01:43:33.660 They have an awful lot of power.

01:43:36.160 Um, and are you against the vaccine?

01:43:39.300 No, I, I got vaccinated as quickly as I could.

01:43:42.140 So I'm actually glad that they're encouraging people, but it was so weird.

01:43:46.440 They wouldn't, they, uh, you know, and you've got Tommy, Tuberville coming out.

01:43:50.380 It's just all of a sudden there's a concerted effort on the right to encourage people where

01:43:54.800 a lot of people were playing peekaboo with it, not taking a position, not really talking

01:43:58.480 about it.

01:43:58.780 Even Steve Scalise has come out.

01:44:00.340 He's like, I just got the vaccine.

01:44:01.840 So the fact that everybody's pulling the oars in the same direction in this polarized partisan

01:44:07.800 tribal warfare culture scares the crap out of me. 1.00

01:44:11.140 Cause I'm wondering why all of a sudden are we all on the same message?

01:44:14.360 Well, unless something bad's coming.

01:44:16.020 I mean, don't you think that everybody is concerned a little bit?

01:44:19.360 I know we are concerned about, you know, Klobuchar yesterday, uh, coming in and saying HHS

01:44:25.700 is going to have, uh, uh, uh, uh, power to be able to say what's misinformation, what's

01:44:31.460 not.

01:44:31.960 And, you know, we, we're going to start punishing those who, uh, are spreading misinformation

01:44:37.780 when I don't even know what misinformation is at this point on, on COVID.

01:44:43.240 Yeah.

01:44:43.640 I mean, cause stuff changed, stuff changes, and then they back up and then you can reinstate

01:44:48.940 certain tweets.

01:44:49.640 Now that the, the facts on the ground have shifted, you know, the, I don't like silencing

01:44:54.840 speech because it is a slippery slope.

01:44:57.640 You know, it's okay.

01:44:58.520 Well, your stuff incites racism.

01:45:00.340 So that's bad and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:45:03.080 You know, it is, it is scary that it's coming to this again.

01:45:07.860 I worry.

01:45:08.700 What do they know?

01:45:09.620 What are they so afraid of is coming that they've spooked all the Republicans to get

01:45:14.060 on message.

01:45:14.640 And now they're going after the, you know, the social media companies for disinformation.

01:45:19.160 I, it's, you know, I'm spooked.

01:45:22.180 I don't know if what they're seeing is too many breakthrough infections and they're worried

01:45:26.580 about, you know, the vaccines basically being rendered useless for the rest of us.

01:45:29.980 By the way, more, hang on.

01:45:31.220 More in a second with Brad Thorne.

01:45:33.420 Jeez, the guy comes on.

01:45:45.720 Jeez.

01:45:47.260 Why don't you write it down?

01:45:48.620 Maybe you'd write a good book.

01:45:50.120 Here is our sponsor this half hour.

01:45:52.660 Our sponsor is American Financing.

01:45:55.320 Taylor writes in about his experience with American financing.

01:45:57.680 He says, Craig was very helpful in securing me a lower interest rate for refinance.

01:46:02.780 Our entire process was so easy and so fast.

01:46:06.080 I was contacted quickly.

01:46:07.400 My questions were answered and I was able to defer two months of payments and the closing

01:46:12.440 was a breeze.

01:46:13.560 It happened at my house.

01:46:15.860 Tyler's experience is very different than experiences that I have ever had on closing

01:46:21.400 mortgages until you start using American Financing.

01:46:53.580 More with Brad Thor next.

01:46:55.060 Back when our government was smart, we ran something called the Red Cell Project and Brad Thor

01:47:13.900 was part of that.

01:47:14.920 He was part of some of the best fiction writers in America that write action fiction.

01:47:20.980 Uh, and they brought him into the Pentagon and said, come up with scenarios that we may

01:47:27.800 not be thinking of on, on how we could be hit by terrorists.

01:47:32.800 Uh, Brad is a guy who studies this deeply.

01:47:36.100 The one reason why I like him is he'll tell the truth of what he feels and what he's thinking,

01:47:41.420 what he's worried about.

01:47:43.200 And, uh, there's no hold bar because he's a, he's an author.

01:47:47.260 Um, and so you can kind of think out loud with him.

01:47:50.060 He has a new book out called Black Ice.

01:47:52.620 It is the 20th in, uh, his number one, uh, series, uh, Black Ice available now for the

01:47:59.740 summer.

01:48:00.040 Another great summer read from Brad Thor.

01:48:02.640 Brad, we had to cut you off because you just kept going, going.

01:48:06.760 Uh, but I want you to give you an opportunity to finish the, uh, the thing you were talking

01:48:10.660 about, you know, what you were concerned about with why the, why everybody is starting

01:48:16.520 to say, got to have the vaccine, got to have the vaccine.

01:48:18.480 Well, yeah, so I'm pro vaccine and I got vaccinated as quickly as I could.

01:48:25.380 So, but I, I watch things.

01:48:27.260 I, I listen for what's being said as well as what's not being said.

01:48:31.300 And so there was this resistance on the right in certain corners to be a pro vaccine.

01:48:37.580 Uh, they, there was kind of this catering to the anti-vax crowd.

01:48:41.140 And we know that the Russians love that anti-vax stuff.

01:48:44.220 And they, they, they've been, they've been pushing anti-vax propaganda via Facebook and

01:48:48.600 stuff before COVID even hit.

01:48:50.340 So we're playing into the enemy's hands when we distrust the vaccine and things like that.

01:48:55.720 So, you know, there's things that we can do to get people more on board, you know, take

01:49:00.200 it, no longer make it an emergency use authorization, get the FDA to fully approve it.

01:49:04.700 So then it, you know, people will have that added, uh, confidence.

01:49:07.500 But it is interesting that you've got Steve Scalise, Mitch McConnell, you know, uh, Hannity,

01:49:15.520 Sean saying stuff, everybody's pulling on the oars in the same direction all of a sudden.

01:49:19.980 And that, that, that's weird.

01:49:21.380 And it makes me, it's good.

01:49:23.060 It's good.

01:49:23.740 I would have loved to have had this a long time ago and I'm glad to have it now.

01:49:27.720 But the fact that everybody's on board this week just really makes me wonder what does

01:49:34.380 the white house see coming?

01:49:35.880 What does, you know, are the CDC what's going on that they spooked?

01:49:41.420 It feels to me like suddenly the Republicans got a talking to and got spooked and they're

01:49:46.020 like, Oh boy.

01:49:46.720 Yeah.

01:49:46.920 Can I ask you a question?

01:49:48.720 It's, it started over in Wuhan, um, and it spread all around the world.

01:49:55.840 Was, was China after Wuhan?

01:49:58.940 I kind of lost track.

01:50:00.080 Did it affect China as deeply as it did the rest of the world all across China? 0.55

01:50:08.620 No, they, but they're a different type of government.

01:50:11.100 They can seal a city and not let anybody out.

01:50:13.960 They can tell you, don't leave your house.

01:50:15.920 You know what I mean?

01:50:16.460 When we do things here, they expect about 50% of the people are going to actually abide

01:50:22.240 by the public health guidelines in China.

01:50:24.060 They can, they can get that up to a hundred percent.

01:50:26.140 They find you on the street, they'll throw you in the gulag.

01:50:28.360 So it's a little bit different, but they did very well economically.

01:50:32.920 I mean, they didn't take the massive hit that we took.

01:50:36.000 So yeah, it's, you know, my niece was on one of the last flights out of there.

01:50:40.200 She was doing a church mission in Wuhan and we just got her home in time.

01:50:45.260 Yeah, no.

01:50:46.240 So it was, we were glad to get her out of there, but yeah, I listen better late than

01:50:50.940 never on the messaging.

01:50:52.220 I want everybody to be healthy.

01:50:54.180 We're seeing, you know, just hospitals filling up again.

01:50:56.520 I don't want people to have COVID.

01:50:59.140 There are potential long-term implications.

01:51:01.780 Yeah, it's bad.

01:51:02.640 Yeah.

01:51:02.860 It's bad.

01:51:03.220 I had it.

01:51:04.000 I got it.

01:51:05.980 Strangely, right after I stopped taking hydroxychloroquine, stopped taking that.

01:51:10.680 And all of a sudden my family had had it, but I was on hydroxychloroquine and the family

01:51:17.300 all got it.

01:51:18.000 I skated through six months later, I stopped taking hydroxychloroquine and I got it almost

01:51:24.260 immediately.

01:51:25.800 So, but that, don't worry about that.

01:51:27.260 That was medical misinformation.

01:51:29.860 Brad, let me ask you. 0.99

01:51:31.760 Holy crap. 0.99

01:51:32.620 Did you take that stuff? 0.99

01:51:33.740 Oh my God.

01:51:34.320 Yeah, I know.

01:51:35.240 I did take that and it, and it, and it worked.

01:51:38.540 I'm telling you, it worked.

01:51:39.980 You know, you, you, you talk about the Arctic Circle and China and, and Russia in black ice.

01:51:46.180 Let me, let me stay on China here for a second.

01:51:48.440 Because you are saying that a cold war is happening.

01:51:53.320 I worry about a hot war and, and here's why.

01:51:58.120 China is not messing around.

01:52:01.440 China has already just taken Hong Kong and nobody said a word.

01:52:05.900 The next thing they are going to do is take Taiwan. 0.98

01:52:09.800 They're already positioning for it.

01:52:12.140 They're letting the world know that's theirs.

01:52:15.060 They're silencing the speech of anyone who says it's a, it's a separate country, separate

01:52:20.800 of China.

01:52:21.660 By the way, Taiwan is an independent country separate from China.

01:52:28.180 And I don't think we, we have an obligation to protect Taiwan, but I don't think we're going

01:52:35.060 to.

01:52:35.780 No, I don't think we're going to either.

01:52:38.080 And in fact, if you look at what happened in Ukraine with Putin going and taking the Crimean

01:52:43.360 Peninsula, nothing happened.

01:52:45.220 There was a strongly worded letter from the Obama administration and they got kicked out

01:52:49.160 of the, what was it?

01:52:50.680 The, the kicked out of the G9.

01:52:52.640 Um, not there, there are no consequences.

01:52:55.520 And if we don't enforce these kinds of red lines, then nobody's going to respect us.

01:53:00.580 Right.

01:53:00.760 And the other big thing that came out was the whole study about the U S Navy, that we are

01:53:05.020 not doing well with our Navy.

01:53:07.340 It's a, it's in bad shape.

01:53:09.020 We're hoping a new secretary of the Navy is going to be able to turn things around, but

01:53:12.500 it's, it's bad. 0.99

01:53:14.220 Instead of teaching people to kick ass in the Navy, we're teaching them to kiss ass. 0.99

01:53:18.640 And that's how you rise through the ranks. 0.99

01:53:20.340 Uh, guys like Nimitz and all the people who helped us win world war II couldn't be admirals

01:53:24.900 today.

01:53:25.200 So let me go back to, let me go back to Taiwan because you said what, what I was driving

01:53:32.180 towards.

01:53:32.740 If we let people pass lines, no one will respect us.

01:53:36.600 I don't want to get involved in a bunch of foreign wars and everything else.

01:53:40.900 However, this Taiwan has always been a very bright red line. 0.55

01:53:46.940 If, if we, if we pretend like we're going to continue this policy and, and protect Taiwan

01:53:55.140 and China goes in and we do nothing literally, where is our power?

01:54:02.320 Is it all gone?

01:54:05.040 It's absolutely gone on the world stage.

01:54:07.860 The ability to influence anyone is completely gone with when the Soviet union broke up about

01:54:14.080 a third of their nukes were in Ukraine and we begged Ukraine to get rid of them. 0.98

01:54:18.620 We'll help you get rid of them.

01:54:19.740 And Ukraine said, well, what's in it for us?

01:54:21.580 We get rid of our nukes.

01:54:22.600 And we signed a pledge to Ukraine saying, we will never let anybody invade you.

01:54:28.480 We'll never let anybody take over your territory.

01:54:30.960 And then Putin did just that.

01:54:32.580 And so that wasn't worth anything.

01:54:34.280 It was supposed to be a bright red line.

01:54:36.100 And the Obama administration just let Putin walk right across it.

01:54:39.940 So I don't have a lot of hopes.

01:54:41.940 If China grabs Taiwan, I don't have a lot of hopes that that's a red line that we're going

01:54:46.020 to go to war over.

01:54:47.940 I think people are tired of war in this country.

01:54:49.920 After Afghanistan and Iraq, we are a war weary public.

01:54:53.720 And I think bad actors are going to take advantage of that.

01:54:57.480 Last question for you, Brad.

01:54:59.980 My son, Rafe, since you last saw him, has grown up.

01:55:03.960 He's turning 16 next month.

01:55:07.960 And he is, I mean, he's turning into a man all of a sudden.

01:55:12.480 And he announced to me a couple of weeks ago that he's thinking about either being a Navy

01:55:18.820 SEAL or Marine Force recon.

01:55:21.600 Wow.

01:55:22.120 And I said a couple of things.

01:55:26.100 Better study a little bit more.

01:55:28.700 And the second thing is I didn't vocalize.

01:55:33.800 Was I not sure I want him to go into the military?

01:55:36.960 Because I'm not sure what the military is going to be like in three years with all of the stuff

01:55:42.480 that is going on with, you know, CRT and all this garbage.

01:55:47.580 Yeah, so that is a big, big issue.

01:55:52.560 So my thing has always been if we have an all-volunteer force, if you go and sign up

01:55:58.100 and do a patriotic act of selflessness by joining the military, I want you to be respected.

01:56:08.740 I want you to be treated well.

01:56:10.360 I don't care if you're gay or straight. 0.96

01:56:12.760 If you're willing to pick up a rifle for this country, God bless you.

01:56:15.440 I am so grateful for you.

01:56:16.920 But I don't think we should be adopting any kind of indoctrination that teaches one group

01:56:22.440 of people that just because of their skin color that somehow they are racist or, you

01:56:28.660 know, if Mark Milley wants to read books to better understand black culture so that black 0.91

01:56:33.120 soldiers can feel more part of the Army, I didn't know that there was a problem where

01:56:37.960 black soldiers were feeling they weren't integrated fully into the Army.

01:56:40.860 If that issue exists or it's a hard thing to do to recruit in the black community and that's

01:56:45.680 just a book, I'm big on book reading.

01:56:47.800 If that helps you appeal better to that community to recruit, good, do it.

01:56:51.520 But I don't want to see white soldiers taught that somehow they're inherently evil just because

01:56:56.280 they were born white because that's not true.

01:56:58.780 And that's not how we make fighting men and women is fractioning the service up like that.

01:57:05.640 That's not how you do it.

01:57:06.400 So would you send your son into the military today?

01:57:09.960 Absolutely.

01:57:10.580 I'm the son of a United States Marine.

01:57:12.360 And if my son said, I want to go serve, I would be proud to see him join the military.

01:57:18.440 All right.

01:57:18.660 So take out your, you know, your family history, Navy SEAL or Marine Force Recon?

01:57:24.020 Which one?

01:57:26.000 Well, boy, that's...

01:57:27.580 And remember, you're going to replace Scott with Rafe in one of the books.

01:57:32.020 So, you know, which one should he go with?

01:57:34.860 I hope he likes cold water.

01:57:36.400 Yeah.

01:57:36.660 He's going to get a bunch of it both ways.

01:57:38.380 I know.

01:57:39.040 I know.

01:57:39.780 They're both fantastic.

01:57:40.500 They're both absolutely fantastic.

01:57:43.100 So, you know what?

01:57:44.780 You can't go wrong.

01:57:45.620 That is a no-lose situation.

01:57:48.100 You're going to do a lot of swimming in either camp.

01:57:52.520 Yeah.

01:57:53.200 All right.

01:57:53.760 Brad Thor, thank you so much.

01:57:55.080 Good to talk to you, my friend.

01:57:56.180 You too, buddy.

01:57:57.220 Thank you.

01:57:57.820 It's Brad Thor, the name of the book that is out right now.

01:58:01.380 And he is always...

01:58:03.160 Is he off?

01:58:04.520 Okay.

01:58:05.180 I'll tell you the truth.

01:58:06.420 Every one of his books is fantastic.

01:58:08.640 Just fantastic.

01:58:09.760 Always worth a great read.

01:58:12.340 I think he and Vince Flynn were my favorite writers and still are my favorite writers of faction,

01:58:21.820 as I like to call it.

01:58:23.060 The latest is Black Ice by Brad Thor.

01:58:28.120 All right.

01:58:28.680 I want to talk to you a little bit about a service called VidAngel.

01:58:32.480 VidAngel gives you control over the content in your homes. 0.93

01:58:36.340 So, for instance, my wife and I, we watch, oh, shoot, what's the name of that stupid with Kevin Costner up in Wyoming? 0.98

01:58:49.760 Yellowstone. 0.99

01:58:50.440 We watch Yellowstone.

01:58:52.320 And, you know, it's not something that we would watch with the kids.

01:58:56.220 And, you know, I wouldn't mind it if, you know, some of the scenes weren't in it.

01:59:02.440 We discovered a service called VidAngel.

01:59:05.920 VidAngel gives you control over the content in your home.

01:59:09.500 If you've ever said, there's nothing that we can watch as a family because everything has swearing in it now.

01:59:16.680 Everything is using the F word.

01:59:18.580 I mean, it's crazy.

01:59:20.160 It's crazy.

01:59:21.860 If you've ever felt that way, you need to sign up for VidAngel because it doesn't edit things.

01:59:28.460 It allows you to skip parts that you don't want to see.

01:59:33.120 So you set the filters for what you want to see or what you don't want to see in your home.

01:59:37.820 You don't want to see, you know, everybody hot and lathered up and, you know, in bed.

01:59:43.100 You don't want to have foul language.

01:59:45.860 You set what the language is, how much of it you can tolerate, all the way to none.

01:59:51.660 And it will take and cut that thing down.

01:59:55.880 It doesn't cut it.

01:59:56.560 It just filters it out and you just skip that part of it.

02:00:01.640 It's quite amazing.

02:00:03.780 It's VidAngel.

02:00:05.560 You can find it now at vidangelbeck.com.

02:00:08.760 Use the code BEC1 and try VidAngel for a month for only a dollar.

02:00:14.420 They've got 11,000 episodes from TV, 2,500 movies that already have the algorithm.

02:00:21.700 So you can just you can just skip all the parts that you don't want to see.

02:00:26.820 Yellowstone, I think, is one of them.

02:00:36.480 The Glenn Beck Program.

02:00:44.420 So I'll give you the latest poll.

02:00:57.440 This is not a good poll.

02:01:00.460 We would like to know how you would rate race relations between various groups in the United States these day.

02:01:07.900 Would you say that race relations between white and black people are very good, somewhat good, somewhat bad or very bad?

02:01:17.780 Back in 2001, it was very to somewhat good, 63 percent to bad, somewhat bad, 35 percent.

02:01:28.880 And it got as far away as 72 to 26 by 2004.

02:01:34.240 Then it started to narrow as we started to go in towards the election of 2008.

02:01:41.140 It went 64-34 in 2006.

02:01:45.880 Then it went up in 2007, 71 to 28.

02:01:49.320 And then Obama actually held it pretty steady at 68 to 30, which is, to me, remarkable.

02:01:58.220 And then something happened in 2013.

02:02:01.800 It went from 70 positive and 30 negative.

02:02:09.460 By 2015, it was 53 negative to 47 positive.

02:02:16.760 Now, what could that have been?

02:02:20.300 That number, that poll was taken in 2015.

02:02:22.900 I think that was the lead up to the election.

02:02:24.940 I think that was the, you know, the BLM, the first marches of BLM had just started.

02:02:34.900 And then you had the election.

02:02:36.880 And, of course, Donald Trump, who was really popular with African-Americans, had to be separated from African-Americans.

02:02:44.040 So they had to start calling him a racist, et cetera, et cetera.

02:02:47.580 And it went 53 negative, 47 positive.

02:02:53.800 Once he got into office, it was 53 positive, 46 negative until 2019.

02:03:01.940 That's when we start to see the switch.

02:03:06.720 2019, it goes haywire and it is growing ever wider apart.

02:03:11.780 It's now 57-42 negative.

02:03:15.480 How do you think things are with race relations?

02:03:20.080 We haven't seen this in a very long time.

02:03:23.040 And it has been very expensive for the left.

02:03:28.400 It has taken an awful lot of work and brain power.

02:03:32.940 But congratulations, they have succeeded in splitting this nation apart and reversing trends that we had been making in positive ways since the 1960s.

02:03:47.960 We had been making progress.

02:03:50.220 Now they have reversed that.

02:03:53.040 That's thank you to our teachers that are insisting on teaching critical race theory.

02:03:58.760 Thanks to our labor unions that are doing the same.

02:04:02.320 Thanks to the media.

02:04:03.780 Thanks to the Democratic National Party.

02:04:08.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
