00:00:00.000 We're glad you're here. Let me tell you about Grip6, our sponsor this half hour.
00:00:04.160 Everything you buy, everything you eat, every piece of clothing you wear, it all came from someplace.
00:00:09.300 And if you're like me, you'd like it to come from the United States of America.
00:00:13.640 But if you are a manufacturer here in the United States, it's hard to make things here in America because it costs more.
00:00:23.960 So. The people who are actually taking the risk and making everything in America, we should, you know, as long as they're making a great product, we should frequent them.
00:00:37.940 That is the case with Grip6. Grip6, they make great socks. They make great belts, wallets, everything else.
00:00:46.480 Great Christmas gifts, good stocking stuffers. And all of it is made here in America.
00:00:52.020 To grip6.com slash Beck. Go there now and save. It's grip6.com slash Beck.
00:01:22.020 Got no room to compromise.
00:01:30.560 We got to stand together. It's the chorus of light.
00:01:35.900 Stand up.
00:01:37.760 Stand up straight and hold the light.
00:01:40.940 Stand up.
00:01:43.400 What you're about to hear.
00:02:08.400 Is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:15.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:22.340 Deedler Barco shifts in his seat, adjusts his red tie.
00:02:28.120 He's finding it hard to recall just how many children he raped when he was working for the United Nations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2004.
00:02:37.400 He said, I would say maybe 20, 25.
00:02:42.980 I didn't count.
00:02:45.060 Wait until you hear this story as three lawmakers are now saying, it's time to get out of the UN.
00:02:55.160 No more funding for the UN.
00:02:57.960 We begin there in 60 seconds.
00:02:59.880 First, let me tell you about relief factor.
00:03:01.620 Whether it is a grunt or a wince when you're getting up from your chair, the face that you make, when you're walking, all of a sudden that shooting pain in your knee, it's the way you look tired all the time.
00:03:16.240 These are the signs that you are in real pain.
00:03:21.040 You don't get sleep at night.
00:03:23.020 You look tired because of the pain.
00:03:25.660 What do you say you try to get your life back right now?
00:03:28.300 And I know if you're like me, you tried everything.
00:03:30.920 Try relief factor.
00:03:32.060 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight that pain by fighting inflammation.
00:03:37.700 100% drug free developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.

00:04:06.780 It's relieffactor.com.
00:04:10.520 We say hello to Mr. Pat Gray who is joining us.
00:04:13.740 I don't know if you saw this story about the UN.
00:04:18.620 Bourgeois was earning $7,000 a month as a head of logistics in the peacekeeping mission in GOMA.
00:04:27.000 I don't even know where GOMA is.
00:04:29.140 Do you?
00:04:30.140 No.
00:04:30.760 He was getting locals to procure children for him.
00:04:34.280 He had two assets that ensured children trusted him.
00:04:37.560 He was white and he worked for the United Nations.
00:04:41.860 Oh, you can always trust white people.
00:04:43.960 Sure.
00:04:44.420 Right?
00:04:44.800 Always.
00:04:45.120 Isn't that a pretty hard core rule of thumb?
00:04:48.220 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:49.080 He said the sex was consensual, but is unsure if the children were afraid to say no.
00:04:55.280 I'm not sure.
00:04:56.880 I don't think so, but I'm not sure it could be.
00:05:00.400 Oh, my gosh.
00:05:01.500 After the Congolese police arrested him and the French authorities jailed him for nine
00:05:07.460 years in 2008, the UN made a public promise to help his victims.
00:05:11.900 That promise was never kept.
00:05:13.760 The UN said it couldn't find the victims.
00:05:16.860 14 years on.
00:05:18.360 I bet they tried really hard.
00:05:19.720 Yeah, they really, really hard.
00:05:21.280 Yeah.
00:05:21.460 Yeah.
00:05:21.840 Yeah.
00:05:22.020 They're probably still looking right now.
00:05:23.680 Well, no, no, fortunately, Channel 4, I don't know where Channel 4 is.
00:05:34.020 Maybe this is Channel 4 from the BBC.
00:05:38.720 14 years on, we investigated sex abuse for Channel 4.
00:05:42.900 It took only one afternoon for my producer to find four women who he had raped when they
00:05:48.540 were children.
00:05:49.500 Wow.
00:05:50.380 The hunting ground was the slums and the airport where barefoot children in ragged clothes scamper
00:05:58.360 through the alleyways.
00:05:59.860 Adults remember the rapes well.
00:06:02.520 One girl was 14 when she used to sell bananas by the side of the road to pay for her education,
00:06:07.280 luring her with promises of help for six months.
00:06:09.820 He took her to a hotel where he abused her.
00:06:12.980 He was so old, as old as my father.
00:06:15.100 He was a civilian part of the culture of UN personnel having sex with prostitute, prostitutes,
00:06:21.180 including children.
00:06:22.360 More than a decade on, that culture still persists.
00:06:26.820 This story goes on to say how horrible these peacekeepers are from the United Nations.
00:06:33.520 We've known this story forever, Pat.
00:06:35.880 We've heard about the Blue Helmets going in and raping women and children for decades.
00:06:43.560 Decades.
00:06:44.380 Yeah.
00:06:44.600 And nobody's done anything about it.
00:06:47.080 And yeah, they're not just inept or ineffective.
00:06:51.280 They're evil.
00:06:52.980 They're evil.
00:06:53.820 They're evil.
00:06:54.600 They're evil.
00:06:55.020 Mike Lee, Chip Roy, and Representative Mike Rogers of Alabama now are pushing a proposal
00:07:02.920 that would cut all of our ties to the UN and all of its affiliated entities, including the
00:07:10.900 World Health Organization.
00:07:13.500 The UN doesn't deserve a single dime of American taxpayer money or one bit of our support.
00:07:19.160 We should defund it and leave it immediately.
00:07:22.660 And I'm proud to lead this critical effort alongside with Mike Lee and Mike Rogers.
00:07:27.820 This is Chip Roy.
00:07:29.140 No more blank checks for the United Nations.
00:07:31.460 America's hard-earned dollars have been funneled into initiatives that fly into the face of our
00:07:36.280 values, enabling tyrants, betraying allies, and spreading bigotry.
00:07:41.360 With the Defund Act, we're stepping away from this debacle.
00:07:45.340 If we engage with the UN in the future, it will be on our terms with the full backing
00:07:50.160 of the Senate and the ironclad escape clause.
00:07:54.000 This is fantastic.
00:07:55.540 And not only should we leave it, we should force them to leave us.
00:08:00.320 Get off our continent.
00:08:02.080 Take your stupid organization to Belgium or someplace.
00:08:05.920 This is not our continent.
00:08:07.400 What about Canada and Mexico?
00:08:09.360 Okay, well, get off our mainland.
00:08:11.380 Get out of our country.
00:08:13.620 Get off our island.
00:08:14.640 Yeah.
00:08:14.960 Yeah.
00:08:16.060 That'll show you.
00:08:16.980 Seriously, doesn't this belong in Europe?
00:08:19.000 Shouldn't it be in Belgium, just like the European Union is and every other one world organization
00:08:25.120 known to man, including NATO?
00:08:27.280 Get them over there.
00:08:29.280 Yeah.
00:08:29.580 They'd love them over there.
00:08:31.560 Well, they do love them.
00:08:32.280 Well, I don't know if the people love them anymore.
00:08:35.380 Not the people, but certainly the European bureaucrats would love them.
00:08:38.900 Well, the bureaucrats here generally love them, don't you think?
00:08:41.620 Yeah, it's true.
00:08:41.960 I mean, I've never seen a time where our bureaucrats are more out of step all over the world.
00:08:49.620 Right.
00:08:50.080 I said this, I don't know, four or five years ago.
00:08:52.400 This is not a war against Republican Democrat.
00:08:57.300 This is truly between the elites and the people.
00:09:03.260 And that's what's happening all over the world.
00:09:05.840 That's what's happening in China.
00:09:07.560 Yeah.
00:09:07.720 That's what's happening in France and the Scandinavian countries and Germany.
00:09:13.260 I wonder if that's why people who are similar to Donald Trump, at least in rhetoric or in delivery.
00:09:21.820 It is.
00:09:22.240 Are winning.
00:09:23.200 Winning.
00:09:23.660 All over the world.
00:09:24.680 Yes.
00:09:25.580 It is.
00:09:26.680 Yeah.
00:09:27.020 It is.
00:09:27.360 Argentina, the Netherlands.
00:09:28.820 I mean, did you ever think Geert Wilders would be elected ahead of the Netherlands?
00:09:37.340 I know way.
00:09:39.000 No way.
00:09:39.520 Is he?
00:09:40.360 Is he?
00:09:40.900 Did he make it to prime minister?
00:09:42.580 I don't think he has enough.
00:09:43.960 They thought he was going to, but he didn't.
00:09:46.820 He just missed it.
00:09:47.660 Just shy of it.
00:09:49.040 But still.
00:09:49.780 That was really amazing.
00:09:51.440 Yeah.
00:09:51.580 We were advised by everybody not to have him on.
00:09:55.140 He came to America.
00:09:56.680 He came into the studios and we had him on and everybody was like, you can't have him on.
00:10:01.180 He's he's a he's a racist, radical bigot.
00:10:04.440 He's in.
00:10:05.480 No, not so far.
00:10:07.360 I mean, you know, doesn't have enough power to really show it, but doesn't seem to be in any way, shape or form.
00:10:15.680 Yeah.
00:10:15.900 And the same thing with the guy in Argentina.
00:10:19.180 That guy looks great.
00:10:21.580 He does.
00:10:22.680 He does.
00:10:23.240 He's just outspoken and people for some reason recoil at that.
00:10:27.840 They don't they don't like outspoken leaders.
00:10:30.460 I guess people who just who are sick and tired of pussyfooting around and just tell it like it is.
00:10:37.680 And that's what he does.
00:10:39.140 But that's that's not the people are not tired of that at all.
00:10:42.560 No, they're not.
00:10:43.300 They're not that at all.
00:10:44.440 The left is tired.
00:10:45.300 The left certainly doesn't want that.
00:10:47.400 Correct.
00:10:47.800 They don't want anybody speaking out because they are the fascists.
00:10:52.460 I mean, when when and this was brought up yesterday by a few people, we talked about it yesterday.
00:10:58.940 When when Joe Biden says he's going to just take the the formulas and just take the you believe that from the drug companies.
00:11:08.280 Yeah.
00:11:08.440 And we're supposed to be OK with that because the pharmaceuticals are all evil giants who make too much money and charge us too much.
00:11:16.060 But I'm sorry.
00:11:16.960 This is about freedom.
00:11:18.580 This this can't be about the government just seizing control of everything they want.
00:11:24.020 Beyond that, they don't think they're bad.
00:11:28.200 That's very true.
00:11:29.420 The government does it.
00:11:30.780 They're in bed with their Pfizer.
00:11:32.900 Yes.
00:11:33.380 And Moderna.
00:11:33.960 Yes, we were.
00:11:35.700 I was never against big pharmaceutical.
00:11:38.640 I thought pharmaceutical, you know, it's a giant corporation.
00:11:42.680 Yes, it's probably not doing things.
00:11:44.940 But this is redistribution of wealth.
00:11:47.700 This is, you know, to give to the have or give give to the have nots and screw the haves.
00:11:54.720 We've always paid more here in America for our drugs.
00:11:57.580 So people who don't have as much will pay less all around the country.
00:12:02.520 Yeah, I've always thought, well, I don't like it, but OK, well, now you see the government and pharmaceutical companies have been in bed for a long time.
00:12:12.260 And all of a sudden, the left who's been saying this forever, they love pharmaceuticals.
00:12:17.280 Yeah, they love their best friends with the pharmaceuticals.
00:12:20.340 Right.
00:12:21.020 And now he's saying, screw the pharmaceutical companies.
00:12:25.060 I'm just going to take their patents.
00:12:27.160 You can't do that.
00:12:28.780 No, they're doing so many things they can't do, though.
00:12:32.700 It's amazing.
00:12:33.480 I don't think can't means what we thought it meant.
00:12:36.940 Yeah, no, I know.
00:12:38.160 I the the other story that was really big yesterday was was the FBI maybe being thwarted in their civil asset forfeiture, civil asset forfeiture problem, which happened in Los Angeles.
00:12:53.740 Remember that one from two years ago?
00:12:55.520 Oh, yeah.
00:12:56.080 They stole anywhere from eighty five to one hundred million dollars worth of cash in goods from people.
00:13:01.500 They went into this, I think it was in Beverly Hills, wasn't it?
00:13:04.880 And they went into this like, you know, it's kind of like, yeah, mailboxes, et cetera, kind of vault.
00:13:10.800 It's not a bank.
00:13:11.680 It's just like this giant vault.
00:13:13.840 And people would rent safety deposit boxes.
00:13:17.100 Well, there was one guy who did they prove that he was doing things or not?
00:13:22.620 No.
00:13:23.080 And it wasn't I don't think it was an individual at all.
00:13:25.340 It was the company, supposedly, that operated or owned the safety deposit boxes.
00:13:31.300 And so they had the warrant to go look at the company's safety deposit boxes.
00:13:37.600 Because they thought there might be the illegal ill-gotten goods in their safety deposit box.
00:13:42.840 And they didn't find anything illegal there.
00:13:44.100 Right.
00:13:44.420 But they were also ordered not to touch anybody else's safety deposit box.
00:13:48.600 Any of the individuals, they're not fair game.
00:13:51.520 They're off limits.
00:13:52.460 Leave it alone.
00:13:52.980 So what they did instead was get into all 1,400 safety deposit boxes and took it.
00:13:59.960 Take everything.
00:14:01.020 They took gold coins.
00:14:03.160 They took jewelry.
00:14:04.100 They took cash to the tune of $85 to $100 million worth.
00:14:09.500 And didn't charge anybody with anything.
00:14:11.700 No.
00:14:11.900 And they said to the people, well, you go ahead and fight us on this.
00:14:15.460 Are you part of it?
00:14:16.400 Are you part of the problem?
00:14:17.420 I mean, they threatened them with prosecution if they said, hey, I want my stuff back.
00:14:24.820 So a lot of people just was like, they were like, I'm not going to fight with the United States government.
00:14:28.740 I'm not going to do it.
00:14:29.080 And in a lot of cases, they were wealthy people and it didn't hurt them that bad.
00:14:32.120 But that's beside the point.
00:14:34.100 Right.
00:14:35.640 It's the principle of this thing.
00:14:37.180 You can't just steal from people.
00:14:39.000 But they do.
00:14:39.900 They do all the time.
00:14:41.200 And it's not just the FBI.
00:14:43.360 It's all the way down to our local police.
00:14:46.840 Yes.
00:14:47.180 I mean, we have become Mexico.
00:14:52.260 And unless this stuff is stopped, when you put AI together with the federal government and all of its private public partnerships, there ain't nothing left.
00:15:05.000 No.
00:15:05.220 There's nothing left.
00:15:06.460 What do you think of the story today that the Democrats are coming out and they're saying companies like BlackRock can't own private houses?
00:15:19.200 They can't invest in private homes and just buy them all up.
00:15:23.700 Wait a minute.
00:15:25.060 What?
00:15:27.140 Why?
00:15:28.640 What is that all about?
00:15:30.640 Why would the Democrats be leading that charge?
00:15:33.600 And I didn't know that was happening in the first place.
00:15:35.980 Did you?
00:15:36.420 Were you aware of that?
00:15:37.120 Oh, yeah.
00:15:37.760 The investment from BlackRock in individual homes?
00:15:40.720 Vanguard and everything else.
00:15:41.980 Yeah.
00:15:42.180 That's what's driving our property prices so high.
00:15:44.780 They go in and they buy entire neighborhoods, sometimes two and three times above the asking price.
00:15:50.960 So they just come in and they buy everything and then they hold it.
00:15:54.300 It is part of the you'll own nothing.
00:15:58.420 You'll rent from us.
00:16:00.680 Wow.
00:16:00.920 And so they're going in and how hard would that be to turn that down?
00:16:04.200 Even if you're a big critic of BlackRock or Vanguard, they come in and say, I'll give you three times of the market value.
00:16:11.720 It would be most people would not say no.
00:16:16.160 Not right.
00:16:17.260 I mean, I know a guy who is selling his house.
00:16:19.580 Somebody from California came in, some big rich person from California came in and said, what are you asking for your house?
00:16:27.120 And he said, it's not for sale.
00:16:28.420 And he said, well, we've looked at the houses and, you know, your house is probably worth X amount.
00:16:34.940 He put a million dollars on that amount plus.
00:16:39.300 And then the guy went, wait, what?
00:16:43.720 And he said, and I'll give you another million if you're out by the end of the month.
00:16:47.380 He was out.
00:16:48.280 Oh, my gosh.
00:16:48.960 He was just out.
00:16:49.760 He was like, bye bye.
00:16:50.840 You got it.
00:16:51.680 Yeah.
00:16:52.020 I'll load my car up starting right now.
00:16:54.320 I mean, if that's the case, I'm calling BlackRock today.
00:16:56.720 If you've considered living in this neighborhood.
00:17:02.560 I mean, it's crazy.
00:17:04.120 That is crazy.
00:17:04.780 But I'm first of all, I don't like the government saying what investors can and can't invest in dangerous precedent.
00:17:13.000 Right.
00:17:13.540 But I'm for them not owning.
00:17:16.840 You know, here's the here is the the meaning of something you've always heard.
00:17:21.640 You've always heard that our founder said this system is wholly inadequate for an immoral and irreligious people.
00:17:32.560 OK, it's wholly inadequate.
00:17:35.820 OK, so how does that phrase tie to BlackRock and what we're talking about?
00:17:41.000 I'll share in just 60 seconds.
00:17:43.700 First of all, if you think the perfect home buying or selling experience doesn't exist, you need to give a call to real estate agents I trust.
00:17:50.940 You might be surprised.
00:17:52.500 Moving is no fun, you know, and selling your house isn't really any fun.
00:17:58.200 When the time comes, there's so much that you have to do to get the house you're selling ready.
00:18:02.000 The things you have to replace and you have to paint that weird 1970s wallpaper that you never got around to completely removing, you know, things like that doesn't have to doesn't even have to touch everything that you have to do on the the buying and just this is just the selling in sitting down at the negotiating table and talking about one of the most expensive purchases you can make is no joke.
00:18:25.340 And you need somebody on your side that is really, really good.
00:18:29.420 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:18:32.260 This is a free service to you.
00:18:33.500 We'll refer you to the people that we have vetted and really we watch them all the time to make sure that they earn all of their five star reviews.
00:18:44.140 They have the best practices and they are paying attention to you.
00:18:49.080 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:18:50.400 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:18:53.460 Ten seconds.
00:18:54.060 Station ID.
00:18:55.340 So our whole system of the free market is it's it's based on the invisible hand.
00:19:11.680 OK, the invisible hand of the market.
00:19:13.740 Well, you are the invisible hand.
00:19:16.240 I am the invisible hand.
00:19:17.700 And whatever it is, we as a collective want.
00:19:22.760 The invisible hand of the market will produce.
00:19:26.340 OK, because there's money to be made there.
00:19:29.000 And if you are a culture that just wants drugs and to escape and pornography, which we generally are, that's what the invisible hand will will deal.
00:19:39.820 OK, but if you're a religious and moral people, you don't generally want that.
00:19:45.740 You want things that make people's lives better.
00:19:48.100 And so that's what the invisible hand delivers to you.
00:19:53.160 In this case with BlackRock, this is a really good example.
00:19:57.660 We've never had to have this rule before.
00:20:01.000 OK, we never had this rule before because they didn't want to be in that business because there was no collusion with the government and with the Fed and all this money sloshing around.
00:20:14.740 And so the everybody thought, no, I don't want to be in that business.
00:20:20.660 I don't like that business.
00:20:21.960 But now that we are a culture that is so far off the reservation where these guys can come in and just make a killing on houses and put our friends and neighbors really into a rental house for the rest of the year.
00:20:38.460 And while they create Pottersville, we let them this is it's a wonderful life.
00:20:46.300 The Jimmy Stewart character was the feel of the town.
00:20:51.140 He was everybody was against Potter, but Potter had money.
00:20:56.420 But the good guy stood up and said, no, you don't want to do that.
00:21:00.940 Well, where's the good guy?
00:21:02.680 If you don't have the Jimmy Stewart in It's a Wonderful Life, then you either get Pottersville or you have to have a government step in and say, no, I'll protect you from yourself because you don't have the sense to stop it.
00:21:22.640 And you don't want that either.
00:21:26.300 No, that's when you lose free market and freedoms.
00:21:30.280 Yeah, by the way, I don't know what's happening to Fetterman.
00:21:35.800 Did you see?
00:21:36.740 Yes.
00:21:37.380 Right.
00:21:37.980 Yeah, it's incredible.
00:21:39.700 Fetterman is like three issues right now where he's been really good.
00:21:43.380 You're like, wait a minute.
00:21:44.920 What?
00:21:45.580 Uh huh.
00:21:46.520 Fetterman said, if we want peace, then Israel has to be able to destroy all of Hamas.
00:21:52.820 Isn't it interesting how that as his brain apparently heals, uh, it starts going to the right?
00:22:01.620 It is.
00:22:02.640 It is.
00:22:03.400 It's really strange.
00:22:05.160 Really, really strange.
00:22:07.180 Huh?
00:22:07.660 Uh, cause it does seem like he's getting physically better.
00:22:11.260 It does.
00:22:11.600 And I'm happy for that.
00:22:12.600 He's speaking a lot better.
00:22:13.160 Yeah.
00:22:13.620 Yeah.
00:22:13.780 And I'm happy for that.
00:22:15.040 Didn't think that would happen.
00:22:16.540 But as he's getting better, it's like, wait, he's starting to make sense.
00:22:22.340 All right.
00:22:23.360 Back in just a second.
00:22:37.580 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:39.700 How much do you know about inflation and how it happens?
00:22:42.700 How much do your kids know?
00:22:44.220 Prices go up.
00:22:45.140 That much is obvious.
00:22:46.520 But what do you really know about it?
00:22:48.940 What causes it?
00:22:49.940 What causes inflation?
00:22:51.520 Hyperinflation.
00:22:52.040 What makes it worse?
00:22:52.860 What makes it better?
00:22:54.380 Do we get out of this economic sinkhole intact?
00:22:57.800 Or do we just repeat the mistakes of the past and let it drag us down completely?
00:23:03.260 It is important for you and your family to know about things going forward, especially in this new generation.
00:23:11.000 They're not being taught anything.
00:23:12.100 It's even more important your kids and grandkids know it than you knowing it.

00:24:10.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:24:13.500 Jonathan Isaac, he's the NBA basketball player for the Orlando Magic.
00:24:18.520 He's also written a book, Why I Stand.
00:24:21.420 He became very popular to people who don't know sports during the COVID debacle because he said no.
00:24:34.460 He founded Unitas and has now created the first basketball shoe to feature a visible Bible verse.
00:24:44.240 You can find all of this at WeAreUnitas.com.
00:24:49.880 Welcome to the program, Jonathan.
00:24:52.640 By the way, full disclosure, Unitas is a sponsor, I think, of The Blaze.
00:24:58.220 So just want to make sure you know that.
00:25:00.120 But I don't really care.
00:25:01.460 It doesn't affect my conversation with Jonathan.
00:25:04.280 Hey, Jonathan.
00:25:06.160 Hey, Glenn.
00:25:06.800 How you doing?
00:25:07.380 Good.
00:25:07.600 How's your ankle?
00:25:09.600 It's doing better.
00:25:10.420 It's doing better.
00:25:10.920 I appreciate you.
00:25:11.480 I'm actually on this call with you on my way to practice.
00:25:15.320 Okay, good.
00:25:15.980 Good.
00:25:16.800 So what prompted, for people who don't know anything about Unitas, what prompted you to start Unitas?
00:25:25.300 Well, what prompted me was first just wanting to see my values represented in the marketplace,
00:25:30.360 specifically in the sports and apparel lane.
00:25:32.940 We've got a plethora of companies today and really just our society at whole, I felt are
00:25:39.300 moving away from godly values and principles and also constitutional values and principles.
00:25:45.320 And so it's like, hey, I know that millions of people feel the same way I do about what
00:25:50.280 makes a prosperous society, faith, family, freedom, things like that.
00:25:53.660 And I wanted to be able to give them something that they can be encouraged by and just feel
00:25:58.440 good about and know that the company that they're supporting completely supports and
00:26:02.180 stands for their values, not just behind closed doors, but in the mainstream media and marketplace.
00:26:08.320 What prompted Nike to pull their partnership from you?
00:26:11.220 You know, I don't officially know.
00:26:17.600 Part of it is when players get hurt, it's something that happens, right?
00:26:21.200 Back in the bubble, after I stood, I got hurt and it was a pretty serious injury.
00:26:25.760 And, you know, it's a part of the business.
00:26:28.340 If you can't play, you know, you can't make companies money.
00:26:30.720 And so I wasn't able to play and so they didn't resign me.
00:26:33.040 Okay.
00:26:34.300 And so you now have introduced Judah One.
00:26:37.400 This is the first basketball shoe to be manufactured with a visible Bible verse in it.
00:26:44.320 Never been done before.
00:26:46.200 Tell me about it.
00:26:47.820 Yeah.
00:26:48.360 So, again, that's just me trying to be authentically myself.
00:26:52.980 And the sneaker actually came about before the idea of United started.
00:26:56.680 And because I didn't resign with Nike, I actually went to my pastor and I told him, hey, you know,
00:27:01.180 I don't have a shoe company anymore.
00:27:02.360 We were just talking casually.
00:27:04.200 And he said, make your own sneaker.
00:27:06.020 And I was like, what?
00:27:07.400 That doesn't make any sense.
00:27:08.520 He said, make your own sneaker.
00:27:10.040 And so I went down the line.
00:27:11.560 Okay, what would it look like?
00:27:12.820 And then I wanted it to be authentically me.
00:27:14.720 And so I'm like, shoot, we'll put Bible verses on it.
00:27:17.120 My middle name is Judah.
00:27:18.180 We'll call it the Judah One and have Judah on the side of it, the Lion of Judah.
00:27:22.180 And so that's where it started.
00:27:24.060 And then the bigger idea of United came about because it was like, why just create a sneaker for myself?
00:27:28.500 Yeah.
00:27:28.620 Why not give everybody an alternative avenue to stand for their values?
00:27:33.460 And so that's where it started.
00:27:35.620 And I'm just so glad that it's been released.
00:27:37.940 And honestly, the support and the recognition of it has been absolutely amazing.
00:27:42.500 And so I'm appreciative.
00:27:43.640 So what is the process like to design your own sneaker?
00:27:49.040 So mine was a little different, I'm sure, than most.
00:27:53.280 I remember watching a movie a while back, and the person had went to a college campus and used the students.
00:28:01.160 And so that's what I did.
00:28:01.940 UCF was right here.
00:28:02.980 And so I was able to connect with their design school, and we turned it into an entire assignment for the students.
00:28:08.640 And we were able to pay five of them to come up with designs that we liked.
00:28:12.580 And that's where the first prototype design of the Judah One was born.
00:28:16.040 And we just ran with it once we got it from them.
00:28:18.240 So it's, but it wasn't just the design.
00:28:21.200 It was the design of the actual shoe, or is the shoe itself, you know, as far as the way it works, you know, on your foot?
00:28:30.240 Right.
00:28:30.800 It was just the flat-faced design, and then we were able to take it to factories and a company called SewWorks to actually turn this into a real sneaker.
00:28:39.220 Unbelievable.
00:28:39.600 So you have not only sneakers, but you also have active wear, et cetera, et cetera.
00:28:45.440 And I'm looking at WeAreUnitas.com.
00:28:48.960 You've got a great I Stand With Israel t-shirt right on the front.
00:28:53.060 I mean, you are bold, brother.
00:28:54.860 You are bold.
00:28:57.160 I'm thrilled.
00:28:58.580 I'm thrilled.
00:28:59.600 These make great Christmas gifts.
00:29:01.700 How much is the Judah One?
00:29:05.040 The Judah One is $150.
00:29:06.920 Okay.
00:29:08.280 They will ship them out, ready to go for Christmas.
00:29:13.720 You'll find something that is at WeAreUnitas.com.
00:29:20.020 I wanted to get you on because I wanted to ask you, I think this is such a remarkable product, and I just applaud you.
00:29:31.200 You're the first guy to really come in and just say, hey, I'm doing my own thing, and I'm doing it for God, and I'm doing it because our values are being lost.
00:29:41.860 I would love to have any of your shoes in our museum.
00:29:46.960 I mean, I can buy the shoes that are being sold right now, but if you have any of the prototypes, any of the early stuff, I'd like to keep it in our museum because I think this is going to be an important shoe.
00:30:00.080 Absolutely.
00:30:00.800 We can make that happen, Glenn.
00:30:01.980 I appreciate you.
00:30:03.220 When you said, you know, you're bold and all these things, I have definitely developed, I would say, quite a bit of callus over the years.
00:30:10.960 It's from the different things, so I'm like, look, this is who I am.
00:30:16.360 I think with the way that our country is going, we have to be just authentic and transparent about what it is that we believe in and stand on it.
00:30:23.200 And no, it's not.
00:30:24.260 Everybody's not going to agree with it.
00:30:25.220 No, not everybody's going to like it, but there are so many people who need to see somebody stand up for what they believe in to know that it's okay to do it themselves.
00:30:33.300 And I guess that's a part of my calling, and I just want to, you know, walk it out.
00:30:38.060 You're a good man.
00:30:39.420 Thank you so much.
00:30:40.120 It's great to have somebody that our kids and even people like me can look up to and say, look at this guy.
00:30:48.160 Look at what he's doing.
00:30:49.220 Courage is contagious, and you are spreading that like crazy.
00:30:54.080 Thank you so much.
00:30:55.880 I appreciate you, Glenn.
00:30:56.780 To God be able to go seriously.
00:30:58.200 God bless.
00:30:59.320 We are Unitas.com.
00:31:01.900 We are Unitas.com.
00:31:03.560 And on the back tab is the Bible verse, which I think is fantastic.
00:31:08.980 And I think he's coming out with the fourth iteration of the Judah one.
00:31:15.440 There's several of them, and he's coming out with the fourth or the fifth now.
00:31:20.580 Great Christmas gifts.
00:31:22.120 We are Unitas.com.
00:31:24.320 You know him, Pat?
00:31:25.600 I don't follow the NBA that closely, but I know of him.
00:31:29.100 Yeah, I've heard of him.
00:31:30.700 It's changed so much, hasn't it?
00:31:32.320 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:31:32.940 It's, I don't know.
00:31:35.160 It's just been a while since I've really followed it closely.
00:31:39.000 But it's nice.
00:31:41.280 It's really refreshing to see a professional athlete who's in the news because of something positive like that instead of beating up his wife or girlfriend.
00:31:49.940 I have to tell you, there's a lot of, I think the NFL is changing.
00:31:53.760 I think there's a lot of guys in the NFL that are really Christ-centered and really good.
00:32:00.440 And are outspoken about it.
00:32:01.660 And outspoken about it.
00:32:04.180 He's the only one in the NBA that I'm aware of, but I don't obviously follow the NBA at all.
00:32:11.580 But I know he has paid a very, very high price.
00:32:15.320 And I hope he is.
00:32:18.060 And this shoe becomes very, very successful.
00:32:21.080 Everybody is like, oh, I got to have a Nike shoe.
00:32:23.080 I got to have a Nike shoe.
00:32:24.080 Why?
00:32:25.200 Why?
00:32:25.540 Why is fashion, you know, I thought of something the other day that we are, we are truly, we've lost shame in our society.
00:32:41.480 There's no shame.
00:32:43.000 And that's what I thought.
00:32:44.800 And then a friend of mine said, you know, I don't, I, you know, sometimes my wife will say something if I'm wearing, you know, socks in my, my sandals.
00:33:00.320 And I'm like, well, she should.
00:33:02.300 But it made me think that we are brand shamed.
00:33:09.500 And we, if you're not dressed properly, if you're not with the right brand, and that could be from politics to clothing, car, neighborhood, whatever it is, we shame for brands now.
00:33:26.720 Yeah.
00:33:26.900 We don't have personal shame anymore.
00:33:30.120 And that's one of the big problems with our society.
00:33:33.900 We, shame needs to be returned, uh, away from this brand shaming, but actual values, you know, you're a bad guy.
00:33:45.740 You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:33:47.660 You're ripping people off.
00:33:49.640 You're Hunter Biden should be ashamed of yourself.
00:33:53.700 That kind of stuff about Hunter Biden.
00:33:55.680 We're going to get into it next hour.
00:33:56.980 Stuff about Hunter Biden.
00:33:58.340 You know, the, the, the average person used to be like, oh my gosh, I, I can't, I mean, my life is over.
00:34:10.400 Yeah.
00:34:11.100 Now he becomes more famous and more popular.
00:34:14.460 Sells his art for more money.
00:34:17.200 Well, that's only because daddy's president.

00:35:45.920 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:35:53.320 Oh, yeah.
00:36:04.860 Hello and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:36:07.340 Uh, so the, uh, budget director for, uh, Biden was, was, uh, meeting, uh, with, uh, the GOP and, you know, trying to get things, uh, done.
00:36:19.800 And she was stunned at what the GOP is demanding.
00:36:25.140 And that is, well, it's so outrageous.
00:36:27.220 It's so outrageous.
00:36:28.480 Secure the borders.
00:36:29.480 Listen to this.
00:36:30.540 We're always willing to have a conversation.
00:36:33.280 Um, but I believe Congress has been talking about this long enough and I'm happy, uh, that the question was called.
00:36:39.840 Unfortunately, uh, people who know the stakes, who are supporters of Ukraine, who are supporters of Israel, uh,
00:36:47.400 decided to put politics ahead of our, uh, national security interests.
00:36:51.400 And frankly, I'm, I remain stunned by that.
00:36:55.760 Stunned.
00:36:56.520 Stunned.
00:36:57.080 I mean, I don't know.
00:37:00.020 It seems to me that national security is probably the, the, the priority would be who's coming into our country right now.
00:37:11.460 Yeah, you would think there'd be some consideration of that, but there isn't.
00:37:15.740 That might be the top priority for national security, but no, no, no, no, no, it's Ukraine.
00:37:22.220 And here's, I mean, there's no reason to be worried about what's going on at the border.
00:37:28.420 Take a look at this from yesterday with the illegals.
00:37:32.400 It's very excited they made it from where you guys from Africa, Africa, Africa, Africa, good.
00:37:44.160 That's a long walk.
00:37:45.600 Yeah, it sure is.
00:37:51.840 Okay.
00:37:53.880 That's good.
00:37:54.800 Here comes some more runners.
00:37:56.180 Yeah.
00:37:57.080 Uh, that's good.
00:37:58.480 That's good.
00:37:58.960 And then, I mean, it's 10, 12,000 people a day on most days now per day.
00:38:08.340 And we don't know where they're coming from, what their intention is, where they're going.
00:38:12.420 They're just good.
00:38:13.020 They're doing.
00:38:13.480 They're just good people.
00:38:14.400 Good family people.
00:38:15.620 You know, what's, you know, it's terrifying is this idea that now these guys can be brought into the military.
00:38:23.940 Yeah.
00:38:24.420 To protect.
00:38:25.700 I mean, we've all asked, why are there so many, you know, 18 to 24 year old men?
00:38:32.340 There were no families there.
00:38:33.400 There was no girls there.
00:38:34.400 No women.
00:38:34.860 So why is this all 18, 24 year old men and what are they going to do now that the military has disenfranchised so many and they can't get the recruitment numbers up?
00:38:49.000 Now they're talking about, well, what about all these illegal aliens?
00:38:53.160 We give them citizenship if they serve, you know, it'd be really great.
00:38:57.100 You know, it'd be really great is if we could send our sons and daughters, the native born Americans, you know, generally from the center of the country.
00:39:07.720 If we could send them over to the meat grinder, that is Ukraine.
00:39:14.280 Yes.
00:39:14.560 And then we could have these new guys come in and they can protect the homeland.
00:39:20.000 Right.
00:39:20.860 Wouldn't that be great?
00:39:22.040 That's a great idea.
00:39:23.600 Great idea.
00:39:24.700 And don't think the Biden administration hasn't already thought of that.
00:39:27.980 Oh, absolutely.
00:39:29.440 They've thought of that.
00:39:30.440 Probably planning it.
00:39:31.200 Yeah.
00:39:31.540 I mean, George Soros is having dreams of that every single night.
00:39:36.280 How great would that be?
00:39:38.320 It's horrible.
00:39:39.800 Horrible.
00:39:41.100 Here is, you know, we're being we're being shelled by the Houthis.
00:39:47.580 And, you know, I don't know.
00:39:53.440 It's a problem for me that the United States has to protect itself more than once from a group called the Houthis.
00:40:05.300 Houthis.
00:40:05.780 Yeah.
00:40:06.680 In Yemen.
00:40:08.780 But we are now.
00:40:11.000 Here's John Kirby at a press conference yesterday talking about the armed conflict with the Houthis.
00:40:18.640 John, is the U.S. in any sort of a conflict with the Houthis?
00:40:22.560 Yeah, sort of a conflict with the Houthis.
00:40:25.460 We are not in an armed conflict with the Houthis per se.
00:40:30.340 That said, as I said at the top, we're going to do what we have to do to protect ourselves, our partners and merchant shipping.
00:40:38.600 And we've done it in the past.
00:40:39.720 We'll do it again in the future.
00:40:42.020 That sounds a little bit like a conflict.
00:40:43.720 We are protecting and defending freedom of navigation.
00:40:49.600 We're protecting and defending our ability to operate in the region, in the Red Sea and surrounding waters.
00:40:56.620 And as I said at the top, we are looking to flesh out an already pretty robust combined maritime force to protect freedom of navigation in the area.
00:41:06.920 Like I said, we've got a couple of...
00:41:08.660 But we're not in conflict.
00:41:10.080 No.
00:41:10.300 We're not in conflict.
00:41:10.980 No.
00:41:11.380 Yes, dozens and dozens of our soldiers have been wounded by these people.
00:41:15.080 But is that a conflict, really?
00:41:16.800 No.
00:41:17.020 No.
00:41:17.560 They're the Houthis.
00:41:19.180 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:20.520 Let me tell you about American Giant.
00:41:22.380 All across this great nation of ours, there are hardworking Americans putting their shoulders to the wheel every single day to assure that you and I continue to buy products that are made here in the USA.
00:41:34.880 There are a few companies out there who understand how important this is, and American Giant is one of them.
00:41:41.040 American Giant is challenging Levi's and everybody else to come back to America.
00:41:47.140 Bring 5% of your manufacturing back to America.
00:41:52.720 It would change our world.
00:41:54.840 It really would.
00:41:55.900 When you buy American Giant clothing, you are buying every stitch of thread, every metal rivet, every drop of ink that is made and assembled here in the United States.
00:42:07.320 The American Giant patch means something.
00:42:10.800 You can get cheaper quality and cheaper clothing, but you're not going to get 100% America and American quality.
00:42:18.660 Buy American Giant today.

00:42:54.120 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:42:59.000 Hello, America.
00:43:01.140 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:43:02.700 We're going to talk to you a little bit about the latest poll numbers that are coming out now and what people believe, who won, who lost on the debate, according to the latest polls as well.
00:43:14.560 And it looks like Hunter Biden may have done something wrong.
00:43:21.520 He's been indicted.
00:43:22.780 He's now facing, I think, 17 years for the indictment that he's now under and another 25 years for his, you know, his gun experience.
00:43:34.480 Will he spend a day in prison?
00:43:36.720 That's a rhetorical question.
00:43:40.100 I mean, I think we all know.
00:43:41.860 First, let me tell you about Mantis X.
00:43:44.320 I strive in my life to do everything I can to do it all with excellence.
00:43:50.460 I think you're the same way.
00:43:52.020 That goes double for the really important things in my life.
00:43:55.580 Things that are like, you know, being able to protect my family.
00:44:00.180 If I ever need to pull a gun, I, man, I do not want to pull a gun because I believe if you point a gun at somebody, you better be prepared to shoot and kill them.
00:44:11.540 It's, this is not practice time.
00:44:14.060 This isn't, uh, this is a serious moment in your life, which will change everything.
00:44:18.560 That's why I use Mantis X to train.
00:44:22.380 It'll help you improve your shooting quickly.
00:44:24.700 You attach it to your firearm and connect it with an app to your fart smartphone or your tablet via Bluetooth.
00:44:31.300 Then whether you're firing actual rounds or even dry firing practice, it'll give you instant feedback on what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong, and how to correct your technique.
00:44:41.660 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes using Mantis X.
00:44:47.240 It's like having a firearms instructor right in your front pocket, and it's going to save you a buttload of money as well.
00:44:53.320 Great Christmas gift.
00:44:54.720 It's Mantis X dot com.
00:44:57.260 Mantis X dot com.
00:45:01.340 So, Pat, I think we talked yesterday about who you thought won the debate.
00:45:09.060 I think we both agreed that it was, uh, DeSantis, even though, you know, uh, the New York Times and other intellectual newspapers, uh, said that it was, uh, Nikki Haley.
00:45:21.020 Yeah.
00:45:21.460 Um, those who watch the new news nation debate in Alabama, 30% said the DeSantis performed the best followed by Haley, 23, Christy, uh, uh, Christy was at 19 and Ramaswamy was at 16.
00:45:38.900 Uh, 7% said DeSantis did the worst and it went all the way up to 37% said it was Ramaswamy.
00:45:47.420 His star has really faded, uh, fast.
00:45:53.200 It has fast.
00:45:54.560 It has.
00:45:55.000 And I think you either love him or you hate him.
00:45:58.020 Uh, I, I still really like him.
00:46:00.620 I like him too.
00:46:01.320 He's not the guy I'm going to vote for, for president.
00:46:03.920 If I had to pick out of all of those on stage, the clear, the clear president is on that stage is DeSantis for sure in my mind.
00:46:16.120 Um, and, uh, and now it's just between him and Donald Trump.
00:46:20.960 And I got to tell you, I, I just don't know if we make it to November, if they throw him in jail, it's going to be ugly.
00:46:35.440 It's going to be really ugly.
00:46:36.800 And they know that they know that they want it.
00:46:40.720 They've tried everything they can to get us to strike.
00:46:44.320 And, uh, and you know, I know Ramaswamy was hit by the, the mainstream media for saying this, but I think we all are pretty aware now that January 6th was at least, uh, helped along.
00:47:00.440 If not a full fledged PSYOP, uh, on the, uh, Trump supporters and, and the American people, um, they try, they, I mean, they just can't get people to, to strike out.
00:47:14.740 We love our country.
00:47:16.380 However, it's happening all over the world.
00:47:19.200 These people are so detached from reality, from the people that people all over the country, all over the world are looking at their leaders and going, who are these people?
00:47:31.360 It's like they're aliens.
00:47:33.520 And January 6th was such a great example of why we can't lash out, why we can't get violent, cause riots, break things.
00:47:44.360 You just can't do it because look at how they've beat that drum for the last two and a half years.
00:47:51.120 That's going to continue forever.
00:47:52.900 They're going to continually call the right violent and extreme based on that one stinking event.
00:48:00.060 Even if it is the left that causes violence, I believe just like they did in Nashville, they will turn it around.
00:48:08.460 Yep.
00:48:09.060 And they'll make it look like it was caused by some right wing extremists, even though it was left wing that was actually doing it.
00:48:19.400 I mean, they just, they, the facts don't matter anymore.
00:48:22.980 They just don't matter.
00:48:24.140 And especially with Donald Trump.
00:48:25.840 I mean, this, this thing where he's in trial at trial today, this is crazy.
00:48:31.820 You, you, he is, he is being charged with, what is it?
00:48:35.440 Fraud or business fraud.
00:48:37.660 Yeah.
00:48:37.900 And the reason why is they say that Deutsche Bank, when has Deutsche Bank ever been the victim?
00:48:46.400 Deutsche Bank needed protection from Donald Trump because they made a loan where he overestimated his worth.
00:48:55.660 However, the head guy, the, the vice president that is in charge of all of the loans, he testified and said,
00:49:04.220 people do this all the time, this, we, we know that that's why we do our own investigation and evaluation.
00:49:12.160 So we evaluated his net worth to be lower than that.
00:49:17.500 And we made the loan based on that lower number.
00:49:21.020 So where's the victim?
00:49:23.940 Where's the victim?
00:49:24.960 How is this even a case?
00:49:27.380 It's all political.
00:49:28.380 It's all political.
00:49:29.000 And I, I think everybody knows it.
00:49:31.160 The Democrats like to pretend that Donald Trump has done all these heinous crimes for which he needs to be imprisoned.
00:49:37.960 But they know deep down inside, he's, he's not guilty of, of, of crimes here, but they're trying desperately to keep him off ballots in as many states as they possibly can.
00:49:50.600 Who's the fascist?
00:49:51.300 Yeah, exactly.
00:49:52.520 Who is the fascist?
00:49:53.500 Doing all the things that they claim Trump did.
00:49:56.640 Right.
00:49:56.920 And they themselves are doing them right now.
00:50:00.400 I think, I think there's, isn't there, uh, action in 24 states right now to get his name off the ballot.
00:50:07.040 I haven't been successful in a single one yet.
00:50:09.300 Not yet.
00:50:09.780 And I hope that continues to be the case because it's going to be ugly if they do.
00:50:13.580 I mean, you just can't do this.
00:50:15.280 You just cannot do this.
00:50:17.340 By the way, at the same time, Hunter Biden was indicted yesterday on nine different charges, including three felonies, in part, allegedly dodging more than a million dollars in taxes while living kind of an extravagant lifestyle.
00:50:34.860 The three felonies leveled against Joe Biden's son, who's 53 years old.
00:50:41.880 He faces a maximum penalty of 17 years in prison if convicted on all counts, including one count tax evasion for his 2018 personal taxes and two counts of filing a false return for his 2018 personal taxes and a corporate income tax return for his company.
00:51:01.300 Could I ask, could I ask, if I filed an intentionally false return, do you think I'd be talking to you today?
00:51:13.780 Not from this location.
00:51:14.840 Not from this location.
00:51:16.000 I would be in jail.
00:51:17.240 I'd be in federal prison.
00:51:18.800 Yeah.
00:51:19.200 And so would you.
00:51:20.540 So would everybody listening.
00:51:22.520 This, this is, again, you know, I was, I was doing something at Colony Ridge in Houston earlier this week.
00:51:30.920 And that is that, um, uh, that, that place where it's all basically illegals.
00:51:39.820 Uh, and I can say that now because we have many ways to verify that, but it's a lot of illegals there.
00:51:47.000 I'm sure there's some Americans there too.
00:51:49.000 I met some of them, but a lot of illegals and all kinds of things, uh, are going on there.
00:51:57.040 The one thing that I, I heard from almost everyone is there's gotta be, and there's no proof of this.
00:52:09.380 There's gotta be, you know, some deals, some backroom deals.
00:52:13.320 The only evidence that you have, and they're not of any deal, but that the developer gave $1.4 million to Greg Abbott.
00:52:20.580 Okay.
00:52:22.040 In a campaign donation.
00:52:23.980 Okay.
00:52:25.120 Well, do you have any more than that?
00:52:27.940 Cause it's not illegal to do that.
00:52:29.540 And so far there's nothing that can be found, but every single person said every single person, something's wrong because the system isn't working.
00:52:41.000 Nobody is looking into this.
00:52:43.920 No one with any power is actually looking into the people's interest.
00:52:50.760 This is, these are representatives of us.
00:52:54.880 And, you know, when people, when things happen and they can't explain it, they'll go down the conspiracy lane because it doesn't make sense that there is no one looking into charges.
00:53:09.320 That there's no one helping people.
00:53:12.480 It's, this is the way it is around the entire world.
00:53:15.520 You look at farmers here in the Netherlands, in Germany, same things going on.
00:53:21.960 Same thing.
00:53:23.680 Where, where is it?
00:53:24.840 Is it, was it Scotland or Ireland?
00:53:27.120 It was someplace where they're having to kill and cull a ton of cattle.
00:53:35.180 Why?
00:53:37.900 WEF stuff.
00:53:39.740 Global warming stuff.
00:53:41.660 It's the methane thing?
00:53:42.900 Yeah.
00:53:43.140 We just got to kill all this.
00:53:45.380 What?
00:53:46.960 Who's standing up for the little guy, the farmer, the rancher that owns all of these cattle?
00:53:53.920 It's, it's not just that these guys get away with murder.
00:53:58.420 Biden gets away with what I'm going to tell you about here in just a second.
00:54:01.880 It's the fact that everyone knows it and everyone sees what's happening.
00:54:09.500 It's, it, we are becoming Mexico.
00:54:12.500 We are becoming a country of, of graft.
00:54:16.740 We are becoming a country that is all based on who you are, who you know, and how much money you have.
00:54:24.980 That's not America.
00:54:26.800 It's not America.
00:54:27.960 Anyway, so he's got all these felonies.
00:54:31.980 Now, I'm going to take a one minute break because you're going to need to catch your breath.
00:54:37.460 When you hear how he spent his money, he did not pay at least $1.4 million in self-assessed federal taxes.
00:54:47.980 He owed them for the years 2016 through 2019.
00:54:52.780 There's a 56 page indictment that comes out of the Central District of California.
00:54:59.700 He, he subverted his payroll tax and tax withholding process of his own company.
00:55:06.600 He withdrew millions of dollars and spent millions of dollars on his pretty crazy lifestyle.
00:55:15.460 And he didn't pay his taxes.
00:55:18.340 Wait until you hear how he spent his money.
00:55:21.360 60 seconds.
00:55:23.300 What if I told you it's not only possible to get rid of that pain that you've been carrying around for so long,
00:55:27.700 but that you could potentially go back to feeling the way you used to.
00:55:31.460 Remember those days back when you didn't have to check in with your body before everything you did just to make sure it wasn't going to betray you?
00:55:39.620 I used to suffer from horrible pain all the time.
00:55:42.800 I couldn't.
00:55:43.520 I got to the point where I couldn't use my hands.
00:55:46.880 Relief factor changed all of that.
00:55:48.560 And I mean, changed it for good.
00:55:51.260 Relief factor is not a drug.
00:55:52.500 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight that pain by fighting inflammation.
00:55:56.800 It's 100% drug-free, developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.
00:56:02.340 And over a million people have tried Relief Factor's Quick Start.

00:56:29.440 Station ID.
00:56:39.800 Okay, so let's look at some of the things that Hunter Biden spent his money on.
00:56:52.200 He didn't spend it on taxes.
00:56:54.300 But here's what he did spend it on.
00:56:57.340 The indictment alleges that he spent $188,000 on adult entertainment.
00:57:08.700 Hmm.
00:57:09.300 Now, what exactly falls into the category of adult entertainment?
00:57:17.220 Because prostitutes, I don't think...
00:57:21.140 No, that's not included.
00:57:22.100 That's a separate line item.
00:57:23.420 That's a separate line item.
00:57:24.800 In 2018 alone, Hunter is alleged to have spent $100,000 in one year on adult entertainment,
00:57:32.640 but only $500 on his mortgage payment.
00:57:36.480 Some payments are laid out in excruciating detail, including $11,500 for an escort to spend just two nights with him in 2018.
00:57:50.020 $11,000 for two nights.
00:57:53.480 Well, so he didn't have to...
00:57:55.460 I mean, it's under $6,000 a night.
00:57:58.220 Amen, brother.
00:57:59.100 Yeah.
00:57:59.240 Thank you for breaking that down.
00:58:00.540 I mean, that's...
00:58:01.040 You know what I mean?
00:58:01.780 That's some cheap entertainment right there.
00:58:03.740 That is.
00:58:04.460 That's not even $6,000 a night.
00:58:06.060 No.
00:58:07.100 No.
00:58:07.280 I don't know what they're complaining about here.
00:58:08.860 Leave him alone.
00:58:09.840 Now, he made $3,947 in payments to M Street Management.
00:58:15.260 Okay.
00:58:15.680 That's a strip club in Washington, D.C.
00:58:18.960 But that was over a whole month.
00:58:20.840 I mean, that's $4,000.
00:58:23.600 In $1 bills, well, that is $4,000 panties you would have to...
00:58:27.740 Maybe he just...
00:58:30.280 I don't know.
00:58:31.460 He's also alleged to have used the business line of credit to make $27,316 in payments to online pornography website.
00:58:43.340 Which, in total, accounted for one-fifth of all the business line of credit expenditures.
00:58:51.880 One-fifth went to a pornography website.
00:58:55.360 Now, I have to go back to the $188,000 on adult entertainment.
00:59:02.120 If it doesn't include prostitutes and it doesn't include pornographic websites, what does adult entertainment include?
00:59:14.800 I'm sorry.
00:59:16.060 I'm a novice at this.
00:59:18.780 He is also alleged to have used the business line of credit.
00:59:21.640 Okay, the president's son also made a one-off payment, $1,500 Venmo payment on August 14th to an exotic dancer at a strip club.
00:59:33.020 Oh, well, I didn't know they were taking Venmo payments.
00:59:36.000 Then again, what's the three...
00:59:37.900 He'd frequent them much more often, wouldn't you?
00:59:39.060 Right.
00:59:39.240 If it was that convenient.
00:59:40.540 Right.
00:59:41.080 I'm just going to Venmo you.
00:59:42.560 Then what is the $3,947 for the strip club in Washington, D.C. if he's using Venmo?
00:59:51.780 Okay.
00:59:53.680 Then, let's see.
00:59:55.800 Oh, by the way, he tried to pass that $1,500 Venmo payment to an exotic dancer that he attempted to pass off as a purchase of artwork in his accounts.
01:00:07.120 Ah, you've never seen hooker art like this, I'm sure.
01:00:12.500 Well, a lot of hookers are art.
01:00:13.600 Yes, that's right.
01:00:14.220 You know what I mean?
01:00:14.760 That's right.
01:00:15.100 Look at her.
01:00:15.580 She's like art.
01:00:17.660 Over four years, he spent $237,000 on health, beauty, and pharmacy.
01:00:24.220 Now, remember...
01:00:25.640 He got ripped off.
01:00:26.360 Unless he is saying pharmaceuticals are like crack, then maybe I understand that.
01:00:36.220 But health, beauty, and pharmacy services?
01:00:39.640 This guy's amazing.
01:00:40.840 A quarter of a million dollars?
01:00:43.560 The indictment also revealed how Hunter spent thousands of dollars on luxury hotels, flights, and car rentals.
01:00:50.040 In April 2018, 2,996 was spent on Virgin American...
01:00:56.060 He should not be flying Virgin...
01:00:57.960 American flights to Los Angeles, and upon arrival in California, he spent $1,700 on renting a Lamborghini.
01:01:05.320 The following two months, Hunter spent a staggering $43,693 at stays at the Chateau Maramont in Los Angeles.
01:01:15.680 You know, that place does...
01:01:19.120 I mean, has anybody who hasn't either killed themselves through drugs or was a total scumbag ever stayed there?
01:01:28.260 I mean, I...
01:01:29.220 No.
01:01:29.880 I've never heard of anybody like, you know what?
01:01:32.800 And the Christians Women's Society stayed there.
01:01:36.160 Yeah, I mean, I...
01:01:37.020 Okay.
01:01:37.940 He paid $7,215 for an L.A. Airbnb rental for his then-girlfriend for two months.
01:01:47.360 All nine charges filed in California on Thursday relate to tax.
01:01:50.980 They include two felony charges for filing a false return, felony charge for tax evasion,
01:01:56.600 four failure-to-pay charges, and a further two charges for failure to file.
01:02:04.080 I don't think he even mentioned the $683,000, have you, that he spent on various women?
01:02:13.260 Well, yeah, but I didn't...
01:02:14.080 $683,000 on various women.
01:02:17.020 Now, when you say various women, how do you, I mean...
01:02:22.640 I think that would include hookers, prostitutes, and whores.
01:02:28.420 So that's really varied.
01:02:30.700 And whores.
01:02:31.080 Yes, he'll go from prostitutes all the way to whores.
01:02:34.180 Okay.
01:02:35.680 But wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:02:36.440 He doesn't discriminate.
01:02:37.480 No, he doesn't.
01:02:38.240 He doesn't.
01:02:38.640 It's great.
01:02:39.160 So let me ask you, why are there other lines of him paying for prostitutes?
01:02:46.920 Why does that not go under the line?
01:02:49.620 Apparently there's something different about what he's doing with the various women.
01:02:53.640 The various women.
01:02:54.520 Yeah.
01:02:55.040 Hmm.
01:02:55.300 $1.6 million in cash withdrawals?
01:02:59.260 So we don't even know what he spent those on.
01:03:01.420 That might have been on the various women as well.
01:03:04.020 $1.6 million out of ATMs.
01:03:08.580 And?
01:03:09.180 Wow!
01:03:09.920 Who doesn't do that?
01:03:10.900 Yeah, who doesn't?
01:03:11.500 Hang on just a second.
01:03:12.500 I need to get $1.6 million out of the...
01:03:14.820 Just stop and buy the ATM to pull that out, you know?
01:03:17.780 So, yeah, that's good.
01:03:21.580 But this guy, again, remember, the president told us that Hunter Biden has never done anything wrong.
01:03:28.740 He may have been wrong about that.
01:03:30.140 He might have.
01:03:30.600 He might have been wrong.
01:03:32.520 I mean, if you're to be judgmental about this, I guess.
01:03:36.000 Yeah, who are you to say?
01:03:36.920 Who are you?
01:03:37.740 Yeah, exactly.
01:03:39.660 Who are you?
01:03:40.800 Who are you to say that?
01:03:42.180 Now, we all know how this is going to end.
01:03:45.000 It'll go to trial.
01:03:45.920 Well, maybe he gets a prison sentence.
01:03:48.740 Maybe.
01:03:49.380 If he does, Daddy is just going to pardon him.
01:03:52.520 He's not going to see a day in prison.
01:03:55.220 Which is exactly what would happen if this was you.
01:03:59.940 Oh, sure.
01:04:00.460 Right?
01:04:06.720 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:04:08.940 American Financing.
01:04:09.900 NMLS 1-82334.
01:04:11.980 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
01:04:15.340 All right.
01:04:15.920 The holidays are finally here.
01:04:17.620 And, you know, there's nothing like, you know, piling on just a little more financial stress to your already stressful year.
01:04:23.140 Right?
01:04:23.760 I mean, yeah.
01:04:25.800 Everything is more expensive right now, unless you work at the White House, where they formed the American people yesterday, that it is never been less expensive for Christmas.
01:04:37.380 I don't know.
01:04:38.280 Now, I think it has been, but I'm not an expert.
01:04:42.660 Please, if you've already dumped a bunch of money on your credit cards, don't continue to do that if there's any way at all you can get around it.
01:04:51.540 But dealing with debts, especially credit card debt, it's killing us.
01:04:58.760 Pick up the phone right now.
01:05:00.500 Give American Financing a call.

01:05:29.160 Go there right now.
01:05:37.280 We have Chip Roy coming up, hopefully, in a couple of minutes here.
01:05:40.540 Chip is the representative from the great state of Texas.
01:05:44.980 He and Mike Lee, and who was the third one from, I think it was Alabama, wasn't it, Pat?
01:05:55.940 Tommy Tuberville?
01:05:56.960 No, no, no.
01:05:57.660 It's not him?
01:05:58.240 Tuberville, I tell you, I think that guy is a hero for what he's done.
01:06:01.840 I think all of the stuff that he has, you know, done to stop abortion and everything else, and he's just been raked over the coals by the wonderful GOP, makes me sick, makes me really sick.
01:06:22.680 So, they came out yesterday, and they want to put an end and defund the United Nations and all of its subsidiaries.
01:06:33.960 So, the WHO and everything else would be a thing of the past.
01:06:38.900 And Mike Lee's part of that.
01:06:39.840 Did you already mention it?
01:06:40.500 Yeah.
01:06:40.820 Yeah.
01:06:41.320 And I...
01:06:42.440 So good.
01:06:43.100 It would be really good.
01:06:44.280 Don't know, you know, how they're going to make this case and win, but I'm glad somebody's at least making this case.
01:06:53.320 There's so much going on here right before the end of the year.
01:06:56.840 We have Chip Roy on with us now.
01:06:58.720 Hi, Chip.
01:06:59.120 How are you?
01:07:00.300 Hey, Glenn.
01:07:01.040 How are you?
01:07:01.780 I have a lot of stuff to ask you about that.
01:07:05.380 First of all, let's start with the UN.
01:07:08.560 What prompted this from you guys?
01:07:11.020 And what is the plan?
01:07:16.120 Well, first of all, it's not a new concept, obviously, for those of us who hated the United Nations for a long time and believe that it's a colossal waste of money.
01:07:23.300 Twelve and a half billion dollars of American, both tax dollars and borrowed money that's gone to the UN as recent as 2021, okay, in one year.
01:07:31.880 Mike Lee and I were talking about this, so disgusted about what we've seen at the United Nations, their ridiculousness in terms of how they've treated Israel,
01:07:38.900 voting not to condemn Hamas, their ridiculousness of funding Hamas through UNRWA, which is, you know, done in the name of refugees,
01:07:47.400 but ends up funding terrorist entities like Hamas, their Human Rights Council, which is a complete sham.
01:07:55.300 They put all of the worst human rights violators on it, funding the, you know, China one-child policy.
01:08:01.260 I mean, you can't even begin to do it.
01:08:03.100 And then you just saw the article yesterday that Mike Lee tweeted out.
01:08:06.040 Mike and I, you know, he introduced the Senate version.
01:08:08.200 I introduced the House version to totally just defund the United Nations and get out.
01:08:12.260 And Mike tweeted out a picture of an article about how all these UN workers have been raping children in Africa and other places around the world.
01:08:19.580 And look, it's just a organization devoid of soul.
01:08:23.360 They don't believe in Western civilization.
01:08:24.980 They are not our friend.
01:08:26.380 Why do we fund it?
01:08:27.340 It's just a joke, and we shouldn't.
01:08:29.200 Is this something that you think could gain traction and win?
01:08:33.880 Well, I mean, not in the instant.
01:08:36.360 I think we need to get really serious about it.
01:08:38.480 I will say, OK, to the credit of the House, you know, I'm pretty, you know, vicious in my condemnation of the failures of House Republicans.
01:08:46.760 But in fairness, right, we're dealing with frickin' a recalcitrant Senate that doesn't want to do anything in a White House that's not just incompetent, but evil.
01:08:54.180 We passed appropriations bills that are state and foreign operations that would have defunded a lot, not all of it.
01:09:01.500 It wasn't perfect, but it defunded a lot of these terrible things, like UNRWA, like the Chinese policy.
01:09:07.820 Mario Diaz-Ballart in Florida, he worked with us on that.
01:09:10.820 But it's jammed.
01:09:11.760 It's just sitting in the Senate, right?
01:09:12.960 The Senate won't do anything with it.
01:09:14.260 And so we introduced this bill as a standalone, basically, to kind of one-up it all and send a message that you have serious members of the Senate and the House saying, wait a minute, we should not be sending $12.5 billion to the United Nations.
01:09:27.020 So, you know, we'll have to keep working the issue.
01:09:29.360 But I know you agree, and I know your listeners agree.
01:09:31.160 Okay, so the next thing is the spending bills and the fact that this defense bill, first of all, if I'm not mistaken, it was yesterday that Lloyd Austin said, if you fail to pass this Ukraine aid bill, U.S. troops on the ground in Ukraine are likely.
01:09:55.140 What kind of threat is that?
01:09:57.060 Yeah, so let's take them in order, right?
01:10:00.160 You're talking about the supplemental spending bill at the moment, right, that includes on the Democrat side, right, because the president put it forward.
01:10:08.360 It has a massive amount of spending, over $100 billion, $60 billion additional funding for Ukraine.
01:10:15.820 I think it's $10 or $15 billion of additional spending at the border, which would just be used to process more people, not change the policies.
01:10:23.020 More spending for Taiwan, more spending generally.
01:10:27.280 And so we would oppose that.
01:10:29.280 And yes, in a briefing the other day, the secretary alluded to, you know, saying, you know, if you guys don't do this, you know, effectively we're going to be committing American troops to war.
01:10:40.840 Now, if you're being less cynical, you'd say his position is that if we don't push back on Putin now, we'll get drawn into a war that involves our men and women in uniform.
01:10:50.180 To which my response is, no, if you keep carrying out your incompetent policies where you refuse to promote American energy, where you refuse to actually sanction, for example, Iran, you allow Iran to provide oil to China.
01:11:03.960 You take all of the positions that are empowering our enemies, then you say we need to fund a proxy war to stop those enemies, or you're going to send our men and women to war.
01:11:14.000 And oh, by the way, they wanted to draft your daughters, which I proudly stood up and stopped.
01:11:18.740 That's the truth of this administration.
01:11:20.760 So we're going to stand up and stand athwart that, at least conservatives are.
01:11:24.680 And I hope Mike Johnson will keep doing what he's been doing.
01:11:28.660 I mean, I'm critical when I'm critical, but I'm complimentary when I'm complimentary.
01:11:31.800 Mike has sent a strong message that we will not even remotely consider Ukraine funding until the border is secure.
01:11:38.760 I hope he sticks to that.
01:11:40.600 I don't, you know, I think we need to question Ukraine spending generally, but I know for certain we shouldn't even mention the word until the border of the United States is secure.
01:11:49.940 I agree.
01:11:50.880 How's he doing, by the way, so far, Johnson?
01:11:54.780 Well, Mike, as you know, is a very good friend.
01:11:57.280 He's a very good man.
01:11:58.200 On that point, he's done, I think, a great job on sending over Israel immediately, first day on the job.
01:12:05.160 And that next week, you know, funded with taking money out of the IRS expansion.
01:12:09.500 I think he did a great job.
01:12:11.060 Look, I think he needs to not give in to the pressures of the swamp.
01:12:14.860 The swamp makes, they work on the addiction of pressure.
01:12:20.520 Oh, my God, if you don't pass FISA by December 31st, the world's going to end.
01:12:27.480 And suddenly people are going to end up, we're all going to die.
01:12:30.000 That's how the swamp works.
01:12:31.820 He should resist that.
01:12:33.820 This National Defense Authorization Act, which is a terrible bill.
01:12:38.400 It's not the House bill, which fixed the abortion transgender, I'm sorry, the abortion tourism.
01:12:43.620 It fixed transgender surgeries.
01:12:45.600 It fixed the DEI and woke stuff.
01:12:48.280 It fixed some of the climate change stuff.
01:12:50.160 That was all thrown out, right?
01:12:52.020 Yeah.
01:12:52.400 Yeah.
01:12:52.820 Most of that, like 90% of that was thrown out.
01:12:55.360 So the defense bill is bad on its face.
01:12:58.640 Then, now they want to add FISA extension, which, Glenn, for your listeners, means using backdoor foreign intelligence to go after American citizens.
01:13:10.300 We want to end that.
01:13:11.900 We passed a good bill in the Judiciary Committee to end that.
01:13:14.720 But, unfortunately, Mike has agreed with Senate Democrats to put a, quote, short-term extension of the existing bill, which allows the spying, until April.
01:13:24.720 And that would actually last until the spring of 25.
01:13:28.540 We oppose it.
01:13:29.600 All of your listeners should tell every single one of your members of Congress and senators to oppose the NDAA that has FISA on it.
01:13:37.480 Because if we vote on it next week, we need at least 150 Republicans to stand up and block that bill.
01:13:44.380 Do you have 150?
01:13:47.040 Well, we also may get some Democrats, so it may be a little bit fewer.
01:13:50.160 But I want as many Republicans as we can get, depending on how many Democrats we get, to block it.
01:13:56.760 But they're going to try to pass it on what we call suspension of the rules, which means you need 200 and roughly 90 votes.
01:14:03.620 So we need, you know, 140 or so of both Republicans and Democrats to kill it.
01:14:08.920 So we want to get as many Republicans as possible to say we're not going to jam through a 3,000-page, watered-down, crappy defense authorization that continues the woke-ification of the military instead of a mission-first military, you know, driving down morale, driving down recruiting.
01:14:25.160 And then, oh, by the way, continue the FISA spying regime, which has been abusing power to spy on Americans.
01:14:32.380 We should stop that.
01:14:33.720 We have conservatives that have good bills.
01:14:35.720 We're advancing.
01:14:36.460 We've just passed it out of the Judiciary Committee on a bipartisan basis.
01:14:40.880 That is what we should be advancing over to the Senate.
01:14:43.540 Tell me about Tommy Tuberville, because I think he's a hero.
01:14:47.320 He stood and stood and stood and stood, and damn near no Republicans stood with him.
01:14:55.160 And he was, I mean, he's just been bashed and bashed, and he finally said, OK, tell me what happened here.
01:15:02.540 Well, Coach Tuberville, Senator Tuberville, is a good man.
01:15:07.540 I've gotten to know him well.
01:15:08.960 Funny enough, his legislative director is a very good friend of mine and my roommate when I'm in D.C.
01:15:13.980 Look, Coach Tuberville is someone who stood up on the side of life, like he said he would do, unlike a lot of Republicans, that run on being pro-life.
01:15:24.480 And then when the battle faces them, they run away, right?
01:15:28.120 I mean, the other senator from Alabama touts herself as being Miss Pro-Life.
01:15:32.120 But did she go down and support Coach Tuberville?
01:15:35.160 No.
01:15:35.860 A whole bunch of other senators.
01:15:37.180 I go through a list that didn't stand up.
01:15:39.240 Mike Lee was down there.
01:15:40.300 God bless him.
01:15:41.320 Roger Marshall went down there.
01:15:42.940 But not that many went down and supported Coach Tuberville when he went to the floor and would object.
01:15:48.500 And by the way, Glenn, all he was saying was we should vote on these confirmations in the Defense Department.
01:15:53.540 That's it.
01:15:54.020 That's all he was demanding in making us do that.
01:15:56.820 Because he said, guys, if you're going to continue to advance an unlawful policy to have taxpayers fund abortion tourism at the Department of Defense, I'm going to make you do the work of getting these things done through votes.
01:16:07.200 I'm sorry that he backed down last week.
01:16:09.360 I wish he'd have held firm a little longer.
01:16:11.540 This is the same issue that is in the National Defense Authorization Act.
01:16:15.640 We fixed it in the House.
01:16:17.820 We should force the Senate to address it.
01:16:20.460 But instead, Republicans are about, if we don't stop them, Republicans are going to move a defense bill.
01:16:26.820 That does not address the abortion issue.
01:16:29.160 That does not address transgender surgeries.
01:16:31.680 That does not address climate change.
01:16:33.820 That does not sufficiently address diversity, equity, inclusion garbage.
01:16:37.580 That does not sufficiently restore people that lost their jobs for COVID.
01:16:41.340 And adds FISA spying extension.
01:16:45.080 In what world should we do that?
01:16:47.240 Coach Tuberville did a great job.
01:16:49.380 We should finish the job now.
01:16:51.980 I've got about 70 seconds here for this answer.
01:16:54.760 The Hunter Biden indictment.
01:16:57.560 Is it going anywhere?
01:16:59.200 Also, the impeachment.
01:17:03.760 Is it going anywhere?
01:17:05.980 On Tuesday in the House Rules Committee, we will be taking up, and I serve on the Rules Committee,
01:17:11.900 a impeachment inquiry vote, which we intend to take to the floor,
01:17:16.420 and I hope and believe will pass off the House floor.
01:17:19.600 Now, we have a couple of members who are still a little wishy-washy, but we hope to get it there.
01:17:22.860 If we can do that, that's the additional tools that we need to get more information
01:17:27.720 and force the Biden administration to stop their obstruction, that's what it is,
01:17:33.520 of our seeking the truth, of what we all know,
01:17:35.740 is that that money flowing through Hunter was flowing through Hunter to Joe Biden, we believe.
01:17:41.740 We've got to go get more information.
01:17:43.580 But certainly in a conspiracy with Joe Biden while enriching his son using foreign actors to do it
01:17:50.060 to the detriment of our national security and well-being.
01:17:53.540 And so Hunter, of course, now that you asked about the indictments,
01:17:56.660 the indictments that were brought down yesterday, they seem fairly significant with respect to the tax laws that were violated.
01:18:04.560 Correct.
01:18:04.700 He was writing off hookers.
01:18:06.100 He was writing off sex clubs.
01:18:07.880 He was writing off, I mean, any number of things you can't do.
01:18:11.180 And so I haven't studied the indictments.
01:18:13.080 I've looked at the summaries.
01:18:14.340 They seem to be significant.
01:18:15.920 But remember, they walked away and they let the statute of limitations run on some very,
01:18:22.360 very significant tax violations from 2014 and 15 when Biden was vice president.
01:18:27.520 We believe that was intentional.
01:18:29.240 We want to seek the truth on that.
01:18:30.800 So we're going to keep running as much as we can with the tools we have.
01:18:35.340 Jamie Comer and Jim Jordan have done a good job.
01:18:37.060 I hope every Republican will support this inquiry that we vote out on Tuesday.
01:18:42.480 I have to tell you, thank you.
01:18:45.300 Thank you.
01:18:45.820 Thank you for the handful of people that are around you and Mike Lee and others that are actually moving the ball or trying to.
01:18:54.880 I appreciate every day you guys are in that cesspool so we don't have to be.
01:18:59.680 Thank you for everything, Jim.
01:19:01.660 Well, we can't do it without you.
01:19:03.000 Merry Christmas to all your listeners.
01:19:04.420 Maybe I'll talk to you before Christmas, but I'm not going to stop.
01:19:07.000 I barely have a voice right now, but I don't give a damn.
01:19:09.440 We've got to save this country for our kids, Glenn.
01:19:11.500 Those men that sat in the foxholes in Bastogne in 1944, freezing to death so that we could live free,
01:19:18.240 we shouldn't adjourn next week if we haven't done our dang job.
01:19:21.400 That's my position.
01:19:22.260 You call any time you need anything next week.
01:19:25.140 Any time you just call in.
01:19:26.420 Thank you so much, Jim.
01:19:27.760 Appreciate it.
01:19:28.200 Thanks, Glenn.
01:19:28.560 All right.
01:19:29.200 Rough Greens is our sponsor.
01:19:31.200 When your dog is hungry, you know, you just grab the kibble food, you fill up the bowl, and, you know, they eat.
01:19:38.040 Uno wouldn't eat the kibble food, just wouldn't.
01:19:40.620 We tried everything.
01:19:41.940 I tried all kinds of different foods.
01:19:44.820 We'd go to the vet, and the vet would say, you know, you've got to get him to eat.
01:19:49.940 He's losing too much weight.
01:19:51.200 And we're like, we know.
01:19:52.820 We hand feed.
01:19:53.860 What else can we possibly do?
01:19:55.800 Well, naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black heard me talking about Uno one time and said, you've got to try this.
01:20:02.860 Rough Greens.
01:20:03.500 Now, he said it's going to make my dog healthier and happier and everything else.
01:20:06.900 And quite honestly, I just needed Uno to eat so he wouldn't waste away.
01:20:11.740 That's all I wanted out of Rough Greens, and that's all I really expected out of Rough Greens.
01:20:17.300 I'm telling you, not only did Uno gain weight and like to eat now, he also, his energy went through the roof.
01:20:25.420 He was like a puppy again.

01:21:08.560 Pretty amazing what's going on tonight.
01:21:11.200 You light the second candle of the menorah in Hanukkah.
01:21:15.460 It goes on for eight days, obviously.
01:21:18.320 And there's a great story in today's show prep from Los Angeles.
01:21:22.740 If you don't get my daily show prep, you can get it for free.
01:21:25.720 You just go to glenbeck.com.
01:21:27.540 And every day there's anywhere from 50 to 100 different stories there.
01:21:32.940 The stories that I look at every morning for show prep.
01:21:37.120 And I help compile it.
01:21:39.280 So it's all the stuff that I think you need to know.
01:21:42.460 But there's a story in there about Jewish people in Los Angeles that are fearful for hanging their Hanukkah decorations.
01:21:51.380 And several people in this article that were interviewed said that they, just to be safe and to keep their family safe,
01:22:03.080 they won't hang Hanukkah decorations.
01:22:10.740 They won't put their Hanukkah menorah in the front window because they're afraid of retaliation.
01:22:20.900 If really we are turning into that country, we should have a completely different conversation with the whole country.
01:22:29.480 Who are we and what are we allowing ourselves to become when Jewish people are afraid to practice their faith or show their faith in their own neighborhoods?
01:22:43.900 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:22:45.800 Let me tell you about Jace Medical.
01:22:48.200 There are critical shortages right now of essential drugs here in the United States.
01:22:53.260 I mean, it's crazy what's going on.
01:22:55.320 And it's happening right now.
01:22:57.000 Five most essential antibiotics treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.
01:23:03.020 You can have them in a medication kit in your home.
01:23:06.840 So if you ever need it, you have it.
01:23:08.960 Plus, they have dozens of add-on medications available.
01:23:12.920 They even have ivermectin as an add-on option.
01:23:16.300 But if you need, you know, you have heart medicine or high blood pressure.
01:23:20.300 In my case, my two girls, two of my three girls take anti-seizure medication.
01:23:28.300 You know, if you have somebody in the family that is on antidepressants.
01:23:31.580 If that stuff goes away, what are you going to do?
01:23:34.660 Where are you going to get it?
01:23:36.140 If there is a disruption, you need to have that medication.
01:23:39.760 You can have a year's supply at your home.

01:24:29.340 Used to be concepts like the customer is always right shaped the way we did business.
01:24:34.140 But that's when everybody wasn't ideologically captured by wokeism.
01:24:38.720 And taking care of the customer's need was much more important than finding ways to show to your leftist friends your credentials.
01:24:45.340 But every once in a while, if you look at the right place, you'll find a company that still wants to do business the American way.

01:25:49.880 Well, welcome to the program.
01:25:51.900 Let's say hello to our executive producer, Stu Bergeer.
01:25:56.240 Hello, Stu.
01:25:56.780 How are you?
01:25:57.120 Glenn, how are you?
01:25:57.800 I'm great.
01:25:58.840 I'm great.
01:25:59.300 There's a couple of things that I want to share.
01:26:04.940 You know, I've been suffering.
01:26:07.620 You know, I have macular degeneration in one eye and macular dystrophy in the other eye.
01:26:13.680 They say that's rare.
01:26:15.380 And I said, of course, I'm special.
01:26:18.420 Hello.
01:26:19.200 Do they cancel each other out?
01:26:20.460 No, unfortunately, they don't.
01:26:23.160 It's a race to the blindness.
01:26:24.740 But I've had this for a while now, and my eyes have been stable.
01:26:29.920 I'm very, very blessed.
01:26:32.520 However, about a month ago, something started happening with my left eye, and I have, you
01:26:39.780 know, floaters, and it's blurry in one eye, and it's nasty.
01:26:45.640 I hate it.
01:26:46.120 Um, and so I finally got into a doctor, and yesterday they were, um, talking to me about
01:26:54.700 it.
01:26:54.880 And she said, did you see lightning strikes when this happened?
01:26:58.040 And I said, yeah, matter of fact, I did.
01:27:01.060 I said, I closed my eyes or even open, but I closed my eyes.
01:27:04.460 It was at night, I remember, and I saw just light.
01:27:06.820 It was like, it was weird.
01:27:08.980 And she said, yeah, let's go in and take some more pictures of your eye.
01:27:12.240 Okay, apparently, when you get to be a certain age, over 12, I think, um, you know, the jelly.
01:27:20.060 Now, I'm going to get very technical here.
01:27:22.080 Oh, no.
01:27:22.440 Okay?
01:27:22.800 Yeah, because you are a doctor.
01:27:24.080 I am a doctor.
01:27:24.880 Please don't talk over our heads.
01:27:25.900 So, I know, I know, I know.
01:27:27.180 So, any, you know, ophthalmologist or anybody who knows anything about that, Rand Paul, sorry.
01:27:33.380 Okay?
01:27:34.360 But I'm going to get technical here.
01:27:36.660 So, you know, our eyes have, like, jelly in them.
01:27:40.100 Ah, okay.
01:27:40.680 Okay, not jelly eyes.
01:27:41.860 It's not preserves?
01:27:43.420 It's not preserves.
01:27:44.260 Okay.
01:27:44.580 It's not jam.
01:27:45.880 It's just pure jelly.
01:27:47.420 Okay.
01:27:47.720 Okay?
01:27:49.100 And so, when you get, you know, over 12, the jelly can pull away from the eye, from the, you know, the membrane.
01:28:01.900 And when that happens, sometimes that will detach your retina.
01:28:06.540 Okay?
01:28:06.780 Okay.
01:28:07.340 And so, I was like.
01:28:08.240 That sounds bad.
01:28:08.580 Now, I'm not a doctor.
01:28:09.480 No, you're not a doctor.
01:28:10.280 That sounds bad.
01:28:11.100 Yeah.
01:28:11.380 Yeah.
01:28:11.420 And so, she said, let's go back and take some pictures.
01:28:14.900 And she didn't tell me about the detached retina thing yet.
01:28:17.800 And I said, oh, okay.
01:28:19.880 So, we went back.
01:28:20.920 And then she looked at me and she said, this is good news.
01:28:24.580 And I said, is it?
01:28:26.020 Really?
01:28:26.620 And she said, yeah.
01:28:28.040 Because it didn't pull any of the retina.
01:28:30.740 So, you didn't detach and you go blind from detached retina.
01:28:33.800 Yeah.
01:28:34.100 That sounds really awful.
01:28:35.040 Really bad.
01:28:36.320 And so, here's the incredible part.
01:28:40.400 So, I said, well, is this ever going to heal?
01:28:42.960 And she said, no.
01:28:44.080 It'll, no.
01:28:44.980 But, come see me about a month.
01:28:47.940 It should be gone.
01:28:49.160 And I said, I thought you said it didn't heal.
01:28:50.800 And she said, no, this is how incredible the body is.
01:28:56.100 She said, your brain will just get used to it and start filling in the missing information.
01:29:05.360 That's incredible.
01:29:07.020 Incredible.
01:29:07.640 Just incredible.
01:29:08.540 That's what they say a lot of peripheral vision is.
01:29:10.700 It is.
01:29:11.220 You don't actually see it.
01:29:12.540 No.
01:29:13.080 Your body just, like, your mind takes it in and then recreates it as you're looking in other directions.
01:29:18.020 Yes.
01:29:18.060 That's insanity.
01:29:19.160 And for it to be as fly, think about how many hallucinations AI has.
01:29:25.440 Think about all of the pictures that are like, well, that's not quite right.
01:29:29.480 Have you ever looked at, have you ever had your peripheral vision or anything and went,
01:29:34.620 oh, it's not really a tree on the side of my head.
01:29:38.060 You know what I mean?
01:29:38.660 It's accurate.
01:29:40.980 How can people think that there's not a God?
01:29:43.660 I mean, it's just, the human body is just amazing.
01:29:47.120 It really is.
01:29:48.460 And look, the thing, that's, and one of the reasons why, Glenn, you and I take such good
01:29:52.820 care of ours.
01:29:53.820 Yes.
01:29:54.100 We just, we keep at peak physical condition at all times.
01:29:57.880 You're going to eat that Snickers over there?
01:29:59.960 Damn right, I'm going to eat that Snickers.
01:30:01.140 All right, go ahead.
01:30:01.880 Anyway, what were you saying?
01:30:02.920 Nothing, I don't know.
01:30:03.580 Okay.
01:30:03.800 Last night, if you can't share, it's not right.
01:30:12.140 So anyway, last night, Rafe came home and, and we decided to go see a, could you just
01:30:22.340 eat it?
01:30:22.780 Just eat it.
01:30:23.660 Thank you.
01:30:23.900 Um, uh, so we went to see Godzilla minus one.
01:30:29.920 You know anything about it?
01:30:31.280 I've heard it's actually pretty good.
01:30:32.660 Is this true?
01:30:33.460 It is incredible.
01:30:35.660 Really?
01:30:35.920 It is incredible.
01:30:37.320 Rafe and I are big King Kong Godzilla fans, you know, and we've watched all the Japanese
01:30:42.580 movies, which I hate.
01:30:43.980 I hate the Japanese movies, but you know, I watched them with him.
01:30:48.100 Uh, and so this one comes out and it's all in Japanese.
01:30:52.840 So it's subtitled strike one, but I kind of take away half the strike because they didn't
01:31:00.680 dub it.
01:31:01.540 You know, it's not like their lips are moving and then you're like, and we should run.
01:31:05.540 It's Godzilla.
01:31:07.680 Uh, so you're hearing only Japanese.
01:31:09.960 You're only hearing Japanese.
01:31:11.020 Okay.
01:31:11.180 I mean, I, this look, there might be an art house film.
01:31:14.800 I pulled the trigger on for this in the right scenario, but to see a Godzilla film with
01:31:19.020 subtitles like that, this is worth it.
01:31:23.540 This is really worth it.
01:31:25.220 Yeah.
01:31:25.660 So it's the original score, but all redone.
01:31:30.020 It's done, I think by the, by the original company or something that made the original.
01:31:35.060 So it's very true to the originals, except it's done well.
01:31:43.380 Okay.
01:31:44.540 Um, it doesn't look like a puppet.
01:31:46.920 Like Godzilla.
01:31:48.040 No, it doesn't.
01:31:48.780 You can't see the strings coming out of the tail.
01:31:51.040 No, but it looks like the same Godzilla.
01:31:54.120 Okay.
01:31:54.540 It doesn't look like the modern dinosaur Godzilla.
01:31:57.360 It looks like the, the original Godzilla.
01:32:00.540 It's just not a guy in a big costume.
01:32:02.320 Okay.
01:32:02.940 Okay.
01:32:03.320 Is it CGI?
01:32:04.300 I mean, they go, yeah, it's like fully produced, fully produced CGI.
01:32:07.560 Um, and, uh, it's so different because it's Japanese and the story starts in world war
01:32:16.280 two with a kamikaze pilot who is afraid to die.
01:32:21.640 So he lands on this little Island, uh, where, you know, the plane, he's like, I, but something's
01:32:28.340 wrong with my plane.
01:32:29.240 You have to fix it.
01:32:30.720 And Godzilla shows up for the first time.
01:32:33.200 This is the big, this is at the end of world war two.
01:32:36.520 And so it's, it's the origin story, if you will, of Godzilla and has the, you know, has
01:32:43.180 him stomping on the power lines and eating the train cars and all of the stuff from the
01:32:48.300 original, except it's, uh, except it's done really well.
01:32:54.100 The storyline is so good.
01:32:58.400 The story of this kamikaze pilot who the war really never ends for him because, you know,
01:33:05.580 shame.
01:33:06.260 He was supposed to kill himself.
01:33:08.780 He was a kamikaze pilot.
01:33:09.860 How did you live?
01:33:11.640 And so the shame that he lives with, and then he's becomes a coward again when Godzilla first
01:33:18.300 shows up and everybody on the Island, except one guy and him, uh, die.
01:33:24.960 It's a little weird from an American perspective to get the kamikaze pilot as the hero.
01:33:31.200 No, it's weird.
01:33:32.060 It is weird.
01:33:33.020 That's why it's, that's why it's so good.
01:33:35.760 And they, they recognize that, um, they, cause they say at one point, our culture has been
01:33:44.120 a culture of death where we didn't care about life and we're not like that anymore.
01:33:50.360 So there, it shows some of the change, um, but it is so good.
01:33:56.720 And there is this, the cutest little girl, this little Asian baby that grows up into a
01:34:05.320 girl by, by the end of the movies, I don't know, about six or seven.
01:34:08.540 She is so cute.
01:34:10.860 She will just steal.
01:34:12.500 She just steals every scene.
01:34:14.740 Um, and when he, at this all of the beginning, when he goes back to his home and everybody's
01:34:23.880 dead and there's nothing left and you see him in that area for two or three years, you'll
01:34:33.240 understand the devastation in Japan, unlike you've ever seen before.
01:34:38.480 We've also getting a historical lesson in a way from, in a way, yeah.
01:34:41.980 It's just such a different look at almost everything.
01:34:46.320 And the, the, the story of the characters, it's just, it's just so good.
01:34:54.880 So good.
01:34:55.760 And a great, great ending.
01:34:59.000 Great ending.
01:34:59.980 I got to check it out.
01:35:00.780 Yeah.
01:35:01.020 It sounds interesting.
01:35:01.920 Now you don't like superhero movies.
01:35:03.600 I don't consider Godzilla a superhero movie though.
01:35:05.840 Well, this one is not like God, you know how Godzilla is like, Oh, maybe we should hug
01:35:12.100 him at the end.
01:35:13.040 You know?
01:35:13.760 Yeah.
01:35:14.160 Well, the recent ones haven't been like that though.
01:35:16.880 He's really kind of a good guy.
01:35:18.540 No, he's not.
01:35:19.200 Oh, and this one, he's not.
01:35:20.120 Oh, no, he's not.
01:35:20.820 Godzilla seems to always kind of turn around and then at the last minute, like kill Mothra
01:35:24.600 and save.
01:35:25.700 Yeah.
01:35:25.960 Save humanity.
01:35:26.940 Yeah.
01:35:27.140 No, this one, this one is what I think Godzilla would be like.
01:35:31.880 Well, see, I feel like the real story of Godzilla is 1967's son of Godzilla.
01:35:37.240 Oh, I haven't heard of son of Godzilla.
01:35:38.720 Yeah.
01:35:38.740 That's the one I feel like is the real one.
01:35:40.820 I mean, if you haven't seen it, I can give you the tagline.
01:35:43.380 Sure.
01:35:43.800 And you can just tell me if you're interested in it.
01:35:45.900 Okay.
01:35:46.000 This is the real tagline for the movie.
01:35:48.280 Have you ever seen a monster hatch from a monster egg?
01:35:51.540 No?
01:35:52.860 You will?
01:35:55.220 That's the whole tagline.
01:35:56.220 Ah!
01:35:57.520 What?
01:35:58.280 What?
01:35:59.340 That's great.
01:35:59.940 You ever see a monster?
01:36:00.800 Hey, there's going to be an egg.
01:36:01.880 It's hatching.
01:36:02.280 At some point, a monster's going to come out.
01:36:03.780 So that's in the movie.
01:36:05.200 Have you heard about the movie ISS, International Space Station?
01:36:12.320 I have not.
01:36:13.480 Saw the preview for this before Godzilla.
01:36:15.840 Oh my gosh, it looks great.
01:36:17.620 It is the International Space Station with Americans and Russians in the, you know, they
01:36:23.480 join and they're working together and everything's going well.
01:36:26.740 And then they look down.
01:36:28.620 One of them is looking out of the window to Earth and they see a nuclear explosion.
01:36:34.900 And then, and the whole world is on fire and they can't raise anybody.
01:36:44.300 But then finally, this is what was in the trailer.
01:36:47.400 Finally, they do.
01:36:49.680 And they say, you must take over the ISS by any means possible.
01:36:56.580 Take it from the Russians.
01:36:58.180 And they're like, well, we're scientists.
01:37:01.680 We're not soldiers.
01:37:02.960 We don't have any weapons or anything up here.
01:37:05.840 And then one of them says, if we're being told this, they're being told this.
01:37:10.880 And so you just see all these scenes where the world is on fire below them.
01:37:16.580 Oh my gosh.
01:37:17.180 And they're fighting in space.
01:37:18.340 It looks fantastic.
01:37:19.940 I'm all in.
01:37:20.400 That's even better than he's seeing a monster egg gets hatched when a monster comes out.
01:37:25.260 I don't know.
01:37:26.020 I've never seen one.
01:37:27.340 I've never seen.
01:37:27.940 The reason why I said that is because Alien said, they'll never hear you scream in space.
01:37:33.600 And this tagline was, apparently, someone can hear you scream in space.
01:37:44.280 Something like that.
01:37:45.540 Wow.
01:37:45.740 So kind of a reworking of that.
01:37:47.580 Yeah.
01:37:47.900 You know, I was, you bring up the ISS.
01:37:50.540 I've been reading this Elon Musk book.
01:37:52.440 Yeah, me too.
01:37:52.960 The Isaacson book.
01:37:53.680 Yeah, it's good.
01:37:54.180 It is good.
01:37:54.840 You know, I go back and forth on him all the time.
01:37:57.580 I'm very mixed on Elon Musk.
01:37:59.240 Some things I really like about him.
01:38:00.400 Some things, eh, not so much.
01:38:01.520 Yeah.
01:38:01.660 But you'll understand him better than you ever have.
01:38:06.440 Yes.
01:38:06.760 It's a really, it's worth, it's worthwhile.
01:38:08.460 If you have Spotify, if you're on Spotify, you can get the book for free.
01:38:11.860 Yeah.
01:38:12.180 So it's, it's, it's long, but it's worth your time, I think, if you want to understand
01:38:15.640 him.
01:38:15.880 But one of the parts they talk about is how we went, we just gave up sending people to
01:38:21.100 the International Space Station with our own machinery.
01:38:24.800 We just were like hitching rides with the Russians.
01:38:26.840 And I remember that sort of, but kind of forgotten it.
01:38:29.080 And what I loved about the story was the first time we started doing that again was a private
01:38:35.280 company.
01:38:36.000 Yeah.
01:38:36.100 A private company was able to send a person to the International Space Station.
01:38:41.720 I mean, now many people.
01:38:42.260 We were hitching rides with the Russians.
01:38:44.120 The Russians.
01:38:44.700 I mean, how embarrassing is that?
01:38:46.800 After, and God only knows what it would be like today.
01:38:49.320 Probably wouldn't be so pleasant.
01:38:51.660 But I mean, the fact that we had a private company able to rise up, what a great American
01:38:56.160 story.
01:38:56.720 I mean, it really is incredible.
01:38:59.720 He is.
01:39:00.140 All you need to do is be the richest man in the world.
01:39:01.360 You can pull this stuff off all the time, Glenn.
01:39:03.260 Get a couple hundred billion dollars and it's cake.
01:39:06.720 Okay.
01:39:07.120 I'm going to work on that.
01:39:08.060 Let me start by making not a hundred billion dollars by telling you about pre-born time of
01:39:14.220 the year when we think most about giving gifts.
01:39:17.140 So let me ask you, what could be a better gift than giving the gift of life to somebody
01:39:22.580 who might not otherwise have it?
01:39:24.760 Two hundred times a day in this country, the Ministry of Pre-Born is introducing an unborn
01:39:29.560 baby to his or her expectant mother.
01:39:33.900 It's the miracle of free ultrasounds.
01:39:36.760 Miracle.
01:39:37.520 You remember, Stu, I used to say if women had a window in their belly, you would not be
01:39:47.140 never have abortion because people would, you know, people always just feel like pregnant
01:39:52.760 women are just public property and they're like, oh, and they rub their belly.
01:39:56.240 I'm sure that's a wonderful experience.
01:39:57.600 Wonderful experience.
01:39:58.520 But imagine if they had a window there, you walk around, everybody would be like, let me
01:40:03.100 see the baby.
01:40:03.620 Let me see the baby.
01:40:04.320 Let me see the baby.
01:40:05.500 Okay.
01:40:05.860 It would be over.
01:40:07.360 Closest thing we have is an ultrasound.
01:40:09.800 And if we can ever get ultrasounds to be like those amazing pictures, really, really clear.
01:40:17.160 Some of those 3D ultrasounds are getting there.
01:40:19.000 I mean, some of them are incredible.
01:40:20.480 We have pictures of our kids and, you know, they're 10 and 12 now, but some of them you
01:40:23.320 can see, you can see Zach's face in the ultrasound, which is incredible.
01:40:29.020 It was like, you know, months before he was born.
01:40:30.540 So anyway, when a mom sees the pictures, when mom hears the heartbeat, she, the life expectancy
01:40:39.740 or the, the, her changing her mind and saying, I want to keep the baby that chance doubles.

01:41:08.000 Now I was just going to talk about something and I can't remember, but you, Oh, we were talking
01:41:22.540 about the Isaacs and sorry, I got sidetracked with.
01:41:25.520 Yeah.
01:41:25.920 Uh, I got sidetracked with preborn.
01:41:27.980 Um, the, uh, the Isaac, Isaac, Isaac, Isaacson, Isaacson, thank you book is, uh, radio hall
01:41:36.160 of fame, man.
01:41:37.360 Uh, they've, they, they, you know, we keep getting these, I've been getting this weird mail from
01:41:45.280 them, by the way, which says withdrawal on the front.
01:41:47.360 And I don't, I don't know what it means.
01:41:49.160 I know I've, there's no one at this address of that name.
01:41:53.180 Um, but anyway, um, you read that and you understand him because you understand his father.
01:42:02.460 Well, kind of understand his father.
01:42:03.960 His father was a monster, just a, according to literally everyone who knows him with the
01:42:09.100 exception of him.
01:42:10.020 Yeah.
01:42:10.320 He's like, Oh, that was actually great.
01:42:11.960 Yeah.
01:42:12.220 You know, it's like, we went to Disneyland.
01:42:13.980 What are you talking about?
01:42:15.440 Uh, he literally said that too.
01:42:17.640 Uh, but, uh, he, when you understand what he had to go through with his father, you'll
01:42:25.320 understand he will spend every dollar he has fighting for X.
01:42:32.380 He, there's no way he's going to let Soros and media matters and all of these people win.
01:42:38.240 No way.
01:42:38.940 No way.
01:42:39.720 He doesn't care about the same things everyone else cares about, which is, you know, partially
01:42:44.120 what's what leads him to occasionally very large mistakes, but also what leads him to the,
01:42:49.000 the ability to push through these things and try things that no one else would try.
01:42:54.200 I mean, over and over and over again, there's examples in this book of him just attempting
01:42:59.560 things that everyone around him said were stupid.
01:43:02.140 And like, we have this way to romanticize that where we're like, Oh, well he wanted to
01:43:06.620 do something and everyone told him it was bad and he did it anyway.
01:43:08.840 And it worked.
01:43:09.380 And it's like, that's a very simplified tale.
01:43:11.700 Like what a lot of times happens with people like that is there's a thousand stories for every
01:43:16.340 one of the Elon Musk stories where people try something crazy.
01:43:19.740 Everyone around him tells them they were dumb and they were dumb.
01:43:23.360 Like that's, or that story doesn't get told a lot in books and some of his ideas it to
01:43:28.380 his own admission were dumb, but he keeps saying, and I thought this was such an interesting
01:43:33.200 thing.
01:43:33.660 He kept saying over and over again, like if we're not, you know, if we're not failing,
01:43:38.140 you know, 30% of the time, then we're not trying enough stuff.
01:43:40.720 And he keeps going through that.
01:43:41.860 He, you know, he is the ultimate anti-regulation guy, which I fell, I fallen in love with this
01:43:48.220 part of Elon Musk where he's just going down the line and like, how many screws are there?
01:43:52.060 There's four.
01:43:52.780 Well, we only need two.
01:43:53.860 We can save weight with two, but the regulation says, screw the regulation.
01:43:57.360 Someone try it with two and see if it works.
01:43:59.360 And of course it does work.
01:44:00.540 The regulation is stupid.
01:44:01.820 Some track down the person who came up with the regulation.
01:44:04.700 They don't even know why they did it.
01:44:05.940 Like, and he's, you know, maniacal on that stuff, which was one of the reasons why these companies
01:44:10.880 work, but he's just, it's an impressive thing to see.
01:44:15.260 And there's a bunch of stories like that.
01:44:17.860 Have you had to the parts where they're talking about all the people who were shorting Tesla
01:44:22.120 stock and how he got around?
01:44:23.740 Because there's a story and you probably remember it from the time they were shorting the stock
01:44:27.600 that he said he was going to get to 5,000 cars per week.
01:44:32.400 And no one thought he could do it.
01:44:33.700 They had drones over his factory recording how many cars were coming out of this factory.
01:44:38.060 And they were like, there's no way he can get to 5,000.
01:44:39.520 And he's only got two assembly lines.
01:44:41.220 So he somehow digs up some regulation that says he can build a temporary auto facility
01:44:50.540 in a tent.
01:44:51.920 And he takes that, goes way beyond what the original intent was, and builds an entire
01:44:57.180 assembly line outside of the tent.
01:44:59.240 And they are able to churn out the 5,000 cars.
01:45:02.000 And this is how he winds up being the richest man in the world, really.
01:45:04.320 I mean, that's probably the central story.
01:45:05.800 I love this guy.
01:45:06.720 Incredible.
01:45:07.000 I don't know if he's a bad guy or a good guy in the end.
01:45:11.040 Only time will tell.
01:45:12.200 History will tell.
01:45:13.500 But I just love him.
01:45:14.500 Yeah.
01:45:14.680 I think he's a good guy.
01:45:15.740 I think he does have issues.
01:45:18.020 He sees things differently.
01:45:20.600 Yes.
01:45:20.960 Because of his childhood.
01:45:22.240 And yes, they are issues.
01:45:24.520 But they're issues that make him Elon Musk.
01:45:28.500 Yep.
01:45:28.680 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:45:31.780 So my third collaboration with Goldline.
01:45:34.100 Every time we embark on this journey, I get more excited.
01:45:37.800 We have done something in making commemorative coins.
01:45:42.940 In an era where the woke crowd is trying to erase our history, you have an opportunity
01:45:48.340 to own a piece of it.
01:45:49.820 We're shining the spotlight this time on Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States.
01:45:56.720 With Goldline, I've had the honor of designing the American Covenant Abraham Lincoln Commemorative
01:46:02.340 in gold, silver, and copper.
01:46:04.620 It pays tribute to his incredible legacy of saving and expanding the Bill of Rights or
01:46:13.500 expanding the understanding of the Bill of Rights and the role the covenant and God played.
01:46:20.260 When you purchase 25 Lincoln quarter ounce gold coins, you're going to receive 100 Lincoln
01:46:26.400 copper rounds absolutely free.
01:46:28.920 Each Lincoln commemorative is a tangible testament to the principles and sacrifices that built
01:46:34.460 this nation.
01:46:35.500 And they're exclusively at Goldline.
01:46:38.220 Want a great Christmas gift?

01:47:01.040 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:47:02.860 Well, it looks like Hunter Biden, that Joe was wrong.
01:47:08.640 Apparently, Hunter Biden did do some things that were illegal.
01:47:11.640 It's weird.
01:47:12.000 He said the opposite about 25,000 times.
01:47:14.540 Yeah.
01:47:15.320 But he's been indicted now.
01:47:17.840 He faces almost 40 years in prison between the gun charges and the tax evasion charges.
01:47:24.780 Uh, we'll see what happens.
01:47:26.860 But that guy was, he tried to write, um, in his taxes, uh, a hooker as art.
01:47:39.260 Oh, I love this.
01:47:40.260 Yeah.
01:47:40.460 This might be my favorite part of the story.
01:47:42.280 Yeah.
01:47:42.640 Yeah.
01:47:42.880 Yeah.
01:47:43.060 Because you really get some, like, this, the quote from the, from the document.
01:47:50.040 $1,500 Venmo payment on August 14th, 2018.
01:47:54.200 That payment was to an exotic dancer at a strip club.
01:47:57.160 The defendant described the payment in the Venmo transaction as for, quote, artwork, end quote.
01:48:03.860 The exotic dancer has not sold him any artwork.
01:48:06.700 Now, that is in the eye of the beholder, sir.
01:48:10.960 Amen.
01:48:11.320 That, do you know, that's art.
01:48:13.560 I mean, we, some of these exotic dancers are performing incredible feats of art.
01:48:19.320 Oh, now the ballet is no longer art.
01:48:21.800 Right.
01:48:22.080 I get it.
01:48:23.560 I get it.
01:48:24.220 Oh, because they're not wearing the right outfit.
01:48:26.560 Apparently, it's not art anymore.
01:48:28.320 Bigot.
01:48:28.840 Yes.
01:48:29.220 Thank you.
01:48:29.600 Yeah, I got it.
01:48:30.360 But I did, like, Zero Hedge posted a chart, which I found really informative, on Hunter
01:48:38.040 Biden.
01:48:38.980 And it was Hunter Biden hooker payments, not seasonally adjusted.
01:48:42.860 And it's a great title.
01:48:47.380 But so, you know, in 2016, spent $4,400 on, quote, various women.
01:48:53.280 Right.
01:48:53.640 Okay.
01:48:54.640 2017 had a bit of an increase from $4,400 to $138,837.
01:48:59.860 He had more time.
01:49:01.920 Right.
01:49:02.200 More free time.
01:49:02.700 More free time.
01:49:03.680 And then, 2018, what a year.
01:49:07.320 Yeah.
01:49:09.220 $383,548 on various women.
01:49:13.840 That's a, that's like a Wilt Chamberlain type year.
01:49:17.140 And I just want you to know that that has not been inflation adjusted either.
01:49:21.500 Right.
01:49:22.000 So, that's when.
01:49:23.160 It's $1 trillion today.
01:49:26.820 And then another, and then, you know, really, it fell off.
01:49:29.340 Because you feel like he spent $3 trillion.
01:49:30.840 What fell off?
01:49:35.400 I mean, that may be what happened.
01:49:38.760 Right.
01:49:39.220 It could have.
01:49:40.020 Because they don't break it down by month.
01:49:41.780 So, he spent $156,427 in 2019 on, quote, various women.
01:49:47.000 But like, maybe it fell off in May.
01:49:50.060 And he was on the same pace and just couldn't spend anything after that.
01:49:53.160 I don't know.
01:49:53.580 We don't have all the details on this.
01:49:54.780 We don't know.
01:49:55.320 We don't know.
01:49:55.740 But they're important.
01:49:56.540 And luckily, he was able to sell tons of artwork to pay back some of these debts.
01:50:00.680 Well, no.
01:50:01.120 No, no, no.
01:50:02.540 No?
01:50:03.060 No.
01:50:03.480 He didn't sell tons of artwork?
01:50:04.780 Well, he sold some.
01:50:06.800 Okay.
01:50:07.160 You know, to some people who coincidentally are now, you know, received appointments from his fatherhood.
01:50:13.720 That's great news.
01:50:15.100 That's crazy.
01:50:16.320 The world of coincidence is a fascinating one.
01:50:18.120 Yeah, yeah.
01:50:18.900 By the way, speaking of artwork, at glennbeckart.com, you can get your Christmas presents.

01:50:49.080 Really cool ones up here.
01:50:50.240 I love the Morning of Hope Dusk.
01:50:52.560 Morning of Hope Dusk of Despair is a really cool.
01:50:55.440 Which one is that?
01:50:56.800 It's your.
01:50:57.220 Oh, yeah.
01:50:57.860 Okay.
01:50:59.000 It's your painting.
01:51:00.320 What do you mean which one?
01:51:00.900 I name them.
01:51:01.280 I don't remember.
01:51:02.280 However, that is, you know what that story is?
01:51:05.460 Every single one of these has a story behind it.
01:51:07.980 That is the story of the SS St. Louis, I think it is.
01:51:14.740 Never actually went into New York Harbor, but came from Europe full of Jews.
01:51:22.500 We turned them around.
01:51:24.460 Now, they came into Cuba.
01:51:27.420 Cuba wouldn't accept them because the United States wouldn't accept them.
01:51:32.280 So, they actually went to Miami.
01:51:34.800 Now, imagine pulling into Miami, seeing America, and you're a Jew escaping Germany, and seeing America, and then everybody turning you down.
01:51:46.560 Oh, man.
01:51:46.940 And so, I've interpreted that with a Statue of Liberty, Morning of Hope Dusk of Despair.
01:51:52.560 They come in in the morning, and there's no port for them.
01:51:57.380 They have to turn around in front of the Statue of Liberty.
01:52:00.580 And you mentioned the Godzilla remake earlier.
01:52:03.300 Now, we're remaking that story in America, which is great.
01:52:06.660 We seem to be doing the same thing to Jews again.
01:52:10.380 Wow, what a great idea.
01:52:12.340 But updated CGI.
01:52:13.200 Oh, yeah.
01:52:13.500 Updated CGI.
01:52:14.500 We can kill them faster now.
01:52:15.560 This time, we're just trapping them in libraries and banging on the doors and windows.
01:52:20.280 Everything's going really well in this country.
01:52:22.660 But, guys, that's an amazing tie to what is going on today with that particular story.
01:52:26.580 On that end, there's another one, Praise in All Things.
01:52:29.140 This is the Corrie Ten Boom story.
01:52:31.420 Do you see that one, by any chance?
01:52:32.960 This is the Corrie Ten Boom.
01:52:34.540 She's actually, this one was a commission by this great, great woman.
01:52:40.420 And she came up to me and she said, I'd like to do, I'd like you to do a Corrie Ten Boom.
01:52:46.840 And I thought, I had already had in my head the story of Corrie Ten Boom and the only thing that I would paint on her.
01:52:55.240 And she said, I'd like you to do a commission.
01:52:57.060 And she said, I have a very specific idea.
01:52:59.520 And I said, so do I.
01:53:02.080 What's your idea?
01:53:04.960 And she told me the exact scene, which was the only one that I would paint.
01:53:10.000 Oh, wow.
01:53:10.680 And it is the moment of Corrie and her sister in the camp.
01:53:15.700 And they're reading scriptures.
01:53:19.240 And all of the women are, you know, are listening to the scriptures.
01:53:23.580 And they're just crawling with lice.
01:53:29.540 And Corrie said, I can't take the lice.
01:53:32.880 And her sister said, praise God for the lice.
01:53:37.480 I'm telling you, Corrie, you're going to find out this.
01:53:40.660 These lice, they were sent by God.
01:53:43.540 Everything plays a role in God's plan.
01:53:46.300 And she's and Corrie is like, I don't think I can go there, sis.
01:53:49.740 OK, I don't think I can go there.
01:53:52.160 Yeah, I think I've had enough.
01:53:54.060 And she finds out her sister dies.
01:53:56.980 Corrie survives, gets out.
01:53:58.840 She finds out the reason why they could read the scriptures was because no guards were coming in.
01:54:04.920 The reason why no guards came into that particular, you know, building was because of the lice.
01:54:14.140 So it's an amazing thing.
01:54:15.960 And if you see, if you look at all of the faces, all of the faces all the way around,
01:54:21.680 is the entire journey of Christianity.
01:54:25.900 So someone who doesn't believe, someone who is just kind of barely awake,
01:54:33.780 then somebody who's dead asleep, somebody who's waking up and thinking,
01:54:37.600 maybe somebody next to her, somebody who's thinking, yeah, but I've sinned too much.
01:54:42.520 It's not for me.
01:54:43.360 Somebody waking up and saying, maybe it is somebody fully engaged and and one with the spirit.
01:54:51.200 And then the older woman down at the end, she's watching and when watching guard over the woman who doesn't believe.
01:54:59.960 And her testimony is being feasted on by the youth that doesn't have their own testimony.
01:55:06.580 They're kind of in the dark in the back.
01:55:08.840 It's really a cool painting.
01:55:10.760 A bunch of really cool ones.
01:55:11.820 Great Christmas gifts, too.
01:55:13.080 Yes.
01:55:13.500 I love the 29 seconds as well.
01:55:15.160 The Hindenburg, which is just a cool looking painting.
01:55:20.700 There's a bunch of really cool looking ones.
01:55:22.300 Glenbeckart.com, by the way.
01:55:23.580 Is there some code or something people need?

01:55:34.860 They're already.
01:55:35.300 They're already.
01:55:35.920 I bleed.
01:55:36.700 Like, I can't believe, but I can't change the price of the originals because of galleries.
01:55:41.640 But I'm going to change the price of everything else.
01:55:44.100 So 50% off.
01:55:45.080 I'd love for you to have at least a poster.
01:55:47.680 If something reaches to you, go to work.
01:55:50.960 You know, at Glenbeck Art, you look up at the top and you see work and you'll see two
01:55:55.720 different collections.

01:56:12.620 Well, yeah, they're various.
01:56:13.920 I mean, there's several of them, but they're not interchangeable.
01:56:17.240 They're not changing.
01:56:18.140 Okay.
01:56:18.600 Yeah.
01:56:18.880 It's the same.

01:56:23.280 I got them on payroll now.
01:56:24.760 Yeah, that's great.
01:56:25.620 You know, sometimes you lock in a salary and it's just not to pay all that overtime.
01:56:29.600 It's just a really good.
01:56:30.380 Prices are going up on everything.
01:56:32.100 Yes.

01:58:08.260 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:58:18.180 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:58:30.320 I'm glad you're here.
01:58:30.940 There's a couple of things that we should cover.
01:58:36.860 One is Jean-Pierre.
01:58:39.340 Karine Jean-Pierre.
01:58:40.940 Yeah.
01:58:41.500 She's the White House spokesperson.
01:58:44.240 And she wants you to know that if you're worried about spending money this Christmas,
01:58:51.780 don't be.
01:58:53.680 Prices are lower this year.
01:58:55.700 Listen.
01:58:56.460 But then what's the disconnect between what people are feeling and seeing at the grocery
01:59:00.660 stores, at the tables, and what the president is saying about the economy?
01:59:04.000 So let me just be real clear.
01:59:05.620 We get into the holiday seasons.
01:59:07.180 We've actually have seen a decrease in eggs, in bacon, in milk since last year.
01:59:13.640 So we are seeing lowering costs as we're going into the holiday season, as people are going
01:59:19.600 to do some holiday shopping.
01:59:21.360 We're seeing lowering costs in TVs and things that people need to think about as they want
01:59:27.640 to give a gift to their loved ones.
01:59:29.900 And so we're seeing some costs go down, airline tickets, gas prices.
01:59:34.080 So the work that we have done, the work that this president has done, whether it's investing
01:59:39.320 in America, whether it's bionomics, we're seeing that.
01:59:42.160 We're in a different place today than we were a year ago.
01:59:45.860 Yes, we are.
01:59:47.900 And that's on the universal map.
01:59:50.900 Where is the earth compared to where it was a year ago?
01:59:53.880 Not in the same place.
01:59:55.140 Right.
01:59:55.500 Right.
01:59:55.900 Also with inflation.
01:59:58.500 Inflation was increasing faster last year than it is increasing this year.
02:00:06.420 But what does that mean?
02:00:07.500 Does that mean prices are going down?
02:00:09.960 No.
02:00:10.060 You can always find a product that prices are going down.
02:00:13.560 That is consistently true all the time.
02:00:15.760 You can always find something that the prices are going down.
02:00:18.320 Even in the peak of inflation, after gas prices hit their peak, they started to come down.
02:00:23.240 That didn't mean they were low, but they started to come down.
02:00:25.900 However, the overall situation here is that not that prices are coming down, but that they
02:00:31.860 are increasing at a slower rate than last year.
02:00:37.340 That is the actual story.
02:00:38.940 So, and by the way, they are increasing off of the already high prices from last year.
02:00:44.760 They never say this.
02:00:46.060 They're like, oh, well, inflation's coming down.
02:00:47.940 Inflation coming down doesn't mean prices coming down.
02:00:50.160 Those aren't the two, that's, inflation and prices are not the same word.
02:00:55.200 We've come up with two different words to describe two different things.
02:00:59.140 Inflation and prices are not the same.
02:01:01.900 If your inflation rate is coming down, what that means is your, the prices are going up
02:01:07.020 at a slower rate than before.
02:01:09.580 That still means they're going up and they're going up from the prices you were already complaining
02:01:14.720 about last year.
02:01:15.900 So this is not good.
02:01:17.180 This is, this is the disconnect.
02:01:18.440 The disconnect is she thinks inflation and prices are the same words.
02:01:21.700 She's either an idiot or she's lying.
02:01:23.500 And guess what?
02:01:24.400 She's both.
02:01:25.760 Now, could we talk about something that you're passionate about?
02:01:28.780 I'm sorry.
02:01:29.400 She, she really does drive me nuts.
02:01:31.060 I mean, I think about this, Glenn, first of all.
02:01:32.520 First of all, who is she?
02:01:34.080 Where did she come from?
02:01:35.300 I never saw her before.
02:01:37.180 I think, I think she was working as an elf in one of the department stores.
02:01:40.840 And, uh, and Joe went in to tell Santa what he wanted for, for Christmas.
02:01:44.700 And she just kind of walked along with him.
02:01:46.760 And now we know this is not true because there's no black elves.
02:01:49.660 No, yes, there are.
02:01:50.480 You ever watch elf?
02:01:51.540 It's very clear.
02:01:53.760 Um, uh, she, first of all.
02:01:56.240 You take that seriously.
02:01:57.540 No, really?
02:01:58.420 No, really.
02:01:58.780 Did you see elf?
02:02:00.620 Must be a South Pole elf.
02:02:02.260 Um, so, uh, she spends her whole day lying.
02:02:06.420 And think about your life.
02:02:07.720 Like, everyone, you know, oh, gosh, I, I, I told a little white lie.
02:02:12.220 You know what?
02:02:12.500 Ends justify the means.
02:02:14.040 She will say anything at any time.
02:02:15.780 And she almost never says something that is true.
02:02:20.360 I mean, think about going through your life like that.
02:02:22.400 Now, I don't know what she's like in her personal life.
02:02:23.900 But in her public life, she almost never says something that is true.
02:02:29.640 That's got to be difficult on somebody.
02:02:31.880 But not for her, apparently.
02:02:33.320 Now, she does read almost everything that she says.
02:02:36.680 So maybe she doesn't count it.
02:02:37.820 Like, she's reading a script.
02:02:39.160 Like, an actor.
02:02:40.160 Um, well, hang on just a second.
02:02:41.880 Not, it's just not hard on people who actually believe the ends justify the means.
02:02:45.660 Yeah, maybe that's true.
02:02:46.500 I mean, it does.
02:02:47.200 Which is revolting.
02:02:47.940 But true.
02:02:48.300 Yeah, it's totally revolting.
02:02:49.900 Um, and the other thing that is revolting is that she is still reading.
02:02:53.900 She's reading this stuff.
02:02:55.080 It's like, you can't come up with answers to these things.
02:02:57.600 She's constantly reading them.
02:02:59.060 It's embarrassing.
02:03:00.580 I mean, we've talked about this a little bit.
02:03:02.580 Why not just publish her book?
02:03:04.560 Yeah, I, my big thing is just have Siri read the answers to us.
02:03:10.060 We would save $170,000 a year that we're paying this woman.
02:03:15.460 And we could just turn on the phone, put the script in the phone, and just have it speak
02:03:19.660 to us.
02:03:20.480 The speak that, you know, they have these accessibility features on your iPhone.
02:03:23.480 Where if you have problems with sight, the phone will read you the text that's on the
02:03:28.840 screen.
02:03:29.200 Why not just do that?
02:03:30.520 That's what she's doing.
02:03:31.880 She's just reading things on the paper to us.
02:03:35.000 What's the point of that?
02:03:36.820 Just have Siri do it.
02:03:38.280 We'd save a fortune.
02:03:39.800 Not to mention the amount that she's spending on her wardrobe.
02:03:42.660 God only knows.
02:03:43.540 It's like the entire economy of a mid-range country.
02:03:47.560 There is nothing that sets him off more than just saying,
02:03:53.240 KJP.
02:03:54.020 Gosh, she just drives me nuts.
02:03:55.980 And this is a job, by the way.
02:03:57.420 Okay, all right.
02:03:57.980 We're out of time.
02:03:58.880 That is supposed to be to report what's going on in the White House to the American people.
02:04:03.920 We have to.
02:04:04.220 It's not supposed to be a job where you lie for Joe Biden over and over and over again.
02:04:09.100 Continued on Monday.
02:04:09.880 The Glenn Beck Program.
