00:00:21.080 Don't even have a dog, do you?
00:00:23.240 You are.
00:00:24.480 Are you a cat person?
00:00:26.260 He died, so thanks for bringing that up.
00:00:30.000 You, you're a witch.
00:00:33.180 Anyway.
00:00:33.860 She's using your tricks against you, that's why.
00:00:36.480 Rough greens.
00:00:37.780 If you have a dog and you want them to live a long, healthy life, unlike Sarah, who just practically killed her dog, I'm sure.
00:00:45.740 Rough greens.
00:00:47.320 It's a supplement that you put on your dog's food, filled with the vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants, all the things your dog needs.

00:01:11.500 Got no room to compromise.
00:01:39.660 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:05.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:09.160 And it really is.
00:02:10.380 It's Friday.
00:02:10.980 Hello, America.
00:02:11.820 So glad you're here.
00:02:13.080 We are going to, we have just such a packed show today.
00:02:15.700 We're going to start with Mr. Bill O'Reilly.
00:02:18.420 I mean, it's practically like a visit from Christ himself, isn't it?
00:02:24.120 He is so pious and holy and, oh no, I was singing another Bill O'Reilly.
00:02:29.780 Bill O'Reilly is joining us with the news of the week in 60.
00:02:33.200 Judy wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor.
00:02:40.220 She said, I'm amazed.
00:02:41.380 My knee was in really bad shape and the next step was knee replacement.
00:02:46.040 I've been through all the injections, but to no avail.
00:02:49.800 Then I tried Relief Factor.
00:02:51.460 After only a short time, I was able to remove my brace and walk again without pain.
00:02:55.480 I take it every single day and considering that I still have my original knee, I am singing
00:03:02.420 Relief Factor's praises.
00:03:04.460 You're living a life of pain.
00:03:05.680 Get out of pain.
00:03:06.620 Try this, please.
00:03:07.720 It has four different ingredients that attack inflammation where ibuprofen 800.
00:03:14.160 Oh, sure.
00:03:15.060 I wouldn't drive under that stuff.
00:03:17.420 It will decrease inflation in some people, but that attacks it from one direction.
00:03:22.520 This attacks four different ways.
00:03:24.780 Pain is generally caused by inflammation, and that's the biggest problem with our bodies
00:03:31.100 even in a lot of things.
00:03:32.660 Even cancer kind of stems back from inflammation.
00:03:36.320 ReliefFactor.com.
00:03:37.660 ReliefFactor.com.
00:03:38.920 Call 800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:41.560 ReliefFactor.com.
00:03:42.680 Feel the difference.
00:03:44.880 Mr. Bill O'Reilly, how are you, sir?
00:03:47.260 Welcome to Good Friday.
00:03:49.080 Yes, and like the Nazarene, I am misunderstood.
00:03:52.500 That's the only thing we have in common.
00:03:54.780 Right.
00:03:55.580 Well, you are the guy who wrote the book on assassination, I think.
00:03:59.720 You wrote Killing Jesus, a personal testimony of how you did it by Bill O'Reilly, or something
00:04:06.060 like that.
00:04:07.800 Bill, welcome to the program.
00:04:09.380 What's the big story of the week?
00:04:10.700 Putin did everything, inflation, the border, it's Putin, he did it all, and Jesus itself.
00:04:20.180 Interestingly enough, on the No Spend News last night, Beck, for the first time in 25 years,
00:04:26.300 I laid out why I believe that Jesus is God.
00:04:33.980 I have never done that in any forum, anywhere, anytime.
00:04:37.500 I am a secular news reporter and analyst.
00:04:42.260 But I did it because of one statistic that rolled in, that we are now at an all-time high
00:04:50.160 in America of people who have rejected religion, 30% of the population.
00:04:56.240 And that really startled me because if you know American history, you know that we were,
00:05:04.040 this country was, founded on Judeo-Christian philosophy.
00:05:08.640 And the Constitution was there to give everyone a chance to practice whatever religion they
00:05:16.660 wanted.
00:05:17.900 And that was different from Europe, and that's why all the people from Europe came here.
00:05:22.480 And now, a third of the population is saying, you know, blank religion.
00:05:27.480 So I decided, because my family for centuries have been Roman Catholics, you know, we're Irish
00:05:34.280 and St. Patrick went over and converted that country.
00:05:37.520 And I decided to tell people.
00:05:39.740 So I wanted to see if you were interested in me just posing a few questions to you on this
00:05:46.200 Good Friday.
00:05:46.980 Yeah, sure.
00:05:48.040 Okay.
00:05:48.720 Number one, did you know that Jesus was not a carpenter?
00:05:55.520 Yes.
00:05:56.940 No, I have no idea.
00:05:58.240 Stu had no idea.
00:05:59.300 I, of course, knew that.
00:06:00.380 Well, Stu's a pagan.
00:06:01.740 Let's be frank.
00:06:02.820 Stu's a pagan, so.
00:06:06.040 An unwashed teenager.
00:06:07.520 Well, he was taught in school, and so were most people, that Jesus was a carpenter.
00:06:12.240 There's one problem with that.
00:06:13.820 There was no wood, no trees in Judea.
00:06:16.880 Everybody lived in stone dwellings.
00:06:19.040 Well, there's...
00:06:19.480 Jesus was a stone cutter, okay?
00:06:23.860 And his father, Joseph, did that, and then Jesus did it from about age 16 to 30.
00:06:30.540 They were stone cutters.
00:06:32.640 They were very poor.
00:06:34.780 And then, because of John the Baptist, a real person, Jesus decided to become a preacher.
00:06:44.640 Now, another question.
00:06:45.900 Did you know that being the Messiah back then in Judea was a job, an industry?
00:06:53.900 Did you know that?
00:06:54.840 I didn't know it was a job, but I knew it was very popular to claim you were the Messiah,
00:06:59.420 and there were a lot of people up in the hills that were saying that.
00:07:03.120 But it was a...
00:07:03.620 They were down in the deserts and all, and it was...
00:07:06.580 There were about 300 messiahs.
00:07:08.360 Yeah.
00:07:08.700 And they were running around because they got paid.
00:07:11.980 Because people would give them food and clothing and shelter, and they'd go from town to town,
00:07:17.380 and I'm the Messiah.
00:07:18.360 Well, they were looking for a warrior.
00:07:21.420 They were looking for somebody who was going to put together an army.
00:07:25.060 They were oppressed.
00:07:25.580 Right.
00:07:26.180 They were oppressed, and they were looking for a savior.
00:07:29.240 So they were running around.
00:07:30.100 But none of these guys got any traction except for John the Baptist.
00:07:33.560 All right?
00:07:34.020 And he didn't really overwhelm it, but he had a base of people who believed that he was the Messiah.
00:07:41.040 You know, he kept telling them, I'm not.
00:07:42.920 And then they arrested the Baptist, okay?
00:07:46.980 Because he said that Herod marrying his brother's wife was wrong.
00:07:55.860 And then Herod said, well, we're going to get this guy out of the box, okay?
00:08:01.040 And they took him to jail.
00:08:02.360 All that's history.
00:08:03.320 Hang on just a second.
00:08:04.400 Another thing, and I can prove this to you.
00:08:07.960 If John the Baptist were alive today, he would have voted for Biden and read the New York Times.
00:08:13.420 Okay.
00:08:14.080 Okay.
00:08:14.900 Reason.
00:08:15.660 Reason.
00:08:16.020 Reason.
00:08:16.520 Yes.
00:08:17.340 He ate bugs.
00:08:19.420 He ate locusts.
00:08:20.300 And that's what they're pushing us into.
00:08:23.660 Yeah.
00:08:24.000 With honey, though.
00:08:25.340 Come on.
00:08:26.180 It wasn't just straight locusts.
00:08:27.740 Well, he was.
00:08:28.920 They dumped a little honey on it.
00:08:30.800 Redistributing the honey from the bees.
00:08:32.520 The reason that I was able to accumulate all of this information was, and this really, really rankles the atheists,
00:08:44.040 was because there were two written threads of what Jesus was doing.
00:08:49.780 And they were written by spies.
00:08:53.100 The first thread was the Sanhedrin, the Jewish temple authorities.
00:08:58.420 Once people started to follow Jesus, word got back that this guy was different than the other 300.
00:09:06.540 He was attracting large crowds.
00:09:07.540 He was attracting large crowds.
00:09:09.400 Okay?
00:09:11.480 And the thing was that you couldn't hear Jesus, Beck.
00:09:16.080 You couldn't hear him.
00:09:18.520 There was no radio.
00:09:20.060 There was no microphone.
00:09:21.400 There wasn't anything.
00:09:22.760 Whoa, I didn't know that.
00:09:24.040 You couldn't.
00:09:24.980 You could see him, because when he preached, he usually preached in a place that was elevated, like a mountain or a hill, or on the Sea of Galilee in a boat.
00:09:34.020 Right.
00:09:34.260 You could see him, but you couldn't hear him.
00:09:38.260 So then the logical question becomes, why would thousands at the end of his life, would thousands of people who had to work to eat,
00:09:52.000 so it wasn't like they had discretionary leisure time, all right?
00:09:57.040 These people, if they wanted meals, they had to work from sunup to sundown.
00:10:01.180 They left their job place to follow this guy around when they couldn't hear him.
00:10:07.640 So the only rational explanation for that is what?
00:10:16.000 He had a personal amplification system.
00:10:20.940 Okay.
00:10:22.500 He had it worn like on a fanny pack.
00:10:24.660 The only logical, and write this down, Stu.
00:10:26.780 The only logical explanation, and we are logical people here, is the works.
00:10:33.600 W-O-R-K-S, in quotes.
00:10:37.600 Now, we do not have the miracles in killing Jesus.
00:10:42.240 It is not a religious book.
00:10:44.340 It is a history.
00:10:45.480 But the spies from the Sanhedrin reported back that Jesus was curing people.
00:10:56.300 That was reportage.
00:10:58.640 And it was written down.
00:11:00.440 Where do you find those writings?
00:11:02.440 I know you can find Jesus in Josephus, in his writings.
00:11:07.100 That is where we found it.
00:11:09.900 Okay.
00:11:10.060 Okay.
00:11:10.520 The Israeli government granted me and Martin Dugard, my co-author, access.
00:11:16.560 We went to Israel.
00:11:17.700 Dugard did.
00:11:18.820 All right.
00:11:19.240 He saw the records that Josephus basically reported on.
00:11:25.280 And that's how we got it.
00:11:27.240 But there was another thread.
00:11:28.840 Once these crowds got big, the Romans sent spies as well.
00:11:36.560 Okay.
00:11:37.040 And everywhere Jesus went, there were two sets of spies.
00:11:41.100 The Jewish spies and the Roman spies.
00:11:43.600 They didn't know each other, by the way.
00:11:45.140 They just blended in.
00:11:47.060 Because Pilate, the governor of Judea, was worried there was going to be an insurrection.
00:11:54.120 And so, there were Roman records as well.
00:11:57.680 And those records, again, cited the big crowds, were excited by the works.
00:12:06.960 Okay.
00:12:07.380 Now, the spies didn't believe the works.
00:12:10.700 They didn't say, oh, I saw Lazarus get risen from the dead or a leper cured or a blind man could see.
00:12:17.880 They did not say that.
00:12:19.600 They said, this is what the people are saying.
00:12:23.740 This is what they're coming to see.
00:12:26.120 Okay.
00:12:27.600 Again, you go back.
00:12:29.600 Now, it would be impossible for a stonecutter from a small town, Nazareth, that had nothing.
00:12:40.500 It was very poor.
00:12:41.760 It was a joke.
00:12:42.000 It was a joke of a town.
00:12:43.540 Yeah.
00:12:44.500 To become the most famous person who has ever lived.
00:12:49.220 31% of the planet's population are Christian.
00:12:55.180 2.4 billion people today follow Jesus, believe he's God.
00:13:01.920 That is impossible in rational thought if there wasn't something else going on.
00:13:10.600 He would have, as all the others did, disappeared from history after he was executed.
00:13:19.680 Now, I could go on and on, but the point that I made on the No Spin News last time on BillOReilly.com, and anybody can see it, by the way.
00:13:26.820 You just go in and you can see my whole 15-minute monologue on this, is that this isn't some belief in Jesus.
00:13:34.920 It's not some mystical thing that plucks out of the air, as the atheists would have you believe.
00:13:42.340 Now, I know there are people of other faiths who don't believe Jesus is God, and that's fine.
00:13:47.000 Islam is the second most prevalent religion on the planet.
00:13:51.220 But, if you are really a person seeking the truth, which, you know, I mean, I don't know, maybe 40% of us do that, I don't know.
00:14:03.240 If you really want to know the truth, you've got to ask these questions.
00:14:07.740 You've got to say, this is a guy who had nothing.
00:14:11.340 Nothing.
00:14:12.680 And he goes around, and he attracts people, and on Palm Sunday, that sealed his doom.
00:14:18.280 When he walked into Jerusalem, again, historic fact, he was there.
00:14:24.860 It was written down by the scribes in the temple.
00:14:29.140 There were thousands of people, all right, praising him.
00:14:34.400 Right.
00:14:35.100 And once the temple authorities and Pilate saw that, they said, he's got to go, for different reasons.
00:14:44.220 Pilate did not want an insurrection.
00:14:46.020 All right.
00:14:46.880 He feared that, because his job was to send money back to Augusta Caesar, and if he didn't send the money, and Pilate got it at the end, by the way.
00:14:55.140 All right.
00:14:55.600 And the Sanhedrin was just petrified that this guy was going to take their job.
00:15:01.440 So, they had to get rid of him, and that's what happened.
00:15:04.160 All right.
00:15:04.580 Thank you.
00:15:05.720 Thank you for that.
00:15:06.800 I don't know.
00:15:07.380 Have you watched The Chosen yet, Bill?
00:15:10.640 I have not seen that, no.
00:15:11.620 It is the best Jesus movie story I've ever seen.
00:15:18.700 It is tremendous, just truly tremendous.
00:15:23.260 But, you know, it looks at all of those things.
00:15:27.780 And, you know, people, you're exactly right.
00:15:30.300 People think that Jesus is, like, maybe some made-up guy because they haven't done their homework.
00:15:35.480 Even Islam believes in Jesus and believes he was a prophet.
00:15:42.260 Here's the thing, and this is important.
00:15:44.360 The media in America, which is the carrier of information, and always has been, okay, they don't like organized religion.
00:15:58.680 Yeah.
00:15:59.140 So, you'll hear it on your programs and on my programs, because we're people who believe.
00:16:06.080 We're believers.
00:16:07.380 But you know this, because you've been in the media, what, 85 years now?
00:16:11.180 It's an amazing run for you.
00:16:14.360 Everybody knew when I worked at ABC and CBS and then later Fox News that I went to church.
00:16:22.880 They always knew that I went to mass.
00:16:25.300 All right?
00:16:25.480 Now, I wasn't running around going, oh, I'm a holy guy.
00:16:28.020 I'm the biggest sinner around.
00:16:29.540 Okay?
00:16:30.280 But they knew that I had this fundamental belief, and they, that was, like, weird.
00:16:38.320 I was, like, strange.
00:16:39.660 And people would come up to me and go, wait a minute, how can you possibly believe this?
00:16:45.120 And I look at them and I go, if you really want to know the truth, you start to analyze the historical fact.
00:16:54.140 It doesn't lead you to any other conclusion.
00:16:56.880 Even I think now, you look at the scientific facts, and there's just, I mean, you know, we don't even know how the body works yet.
00:17:07.160 We don't know how the brain works with all of our high tech, and we just think this just evolved without some design.
00:17:15.100 To me, it's crazy.
00:17:16.660 All right, Bill.
00:17:17.000 It is crazy.
00:17:17.600 Hang on just a second.
00:17:18.540 Back with more of Bill O'Reilly.
00:17:19.840 Here's the thing.
00:17:27.300 If you own your own home, how much are you paying for your credit cards?
00:17:31.280 Your credit cards.
00:17:33.140 Your credit cards are probably about 19% interest right now.
00:17:37.480 And that is going to go up.
00:17:39.120 They're anywhere.
00:17:40.180 The average is about 19% to 22%.
00:17:43.880 That is in the territory of not being able to pay it back because it's compounded every single month.
00:17:51.080 So what are you doing?
00:17:52.580 You got to get out of those credit cards.
00:17:55.620 If you have a mortgage, your home right now, the value of your home is probably up around 20%.
00:18:02.020 So you don't have to reset your whole mortgage.
00:18:04.200 Just take what you have in those credit cards and get a consolidation loan and get those credit card interest rates down to 4% or 5% as opposed to 20%.
00:18:18.100 Save yourself a ton of money.
00:18:20.740 It's American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, AmericanFinancing.net.
00:18:28.740 10 seconds, Station ID.
00:18:34.200 So, Bill, I got a couple of things I just want to run through with you just to get your take on it.
00:18:46.180 First of all, Biden is now talking about, you know, ethanol and, you know, upping ethanol, which will send corn prices through the roof and affect us and all kinds of things.
00:19:00.720 Are people, I mean, I just saw a poll.
00:19:02.700 People are starting to believe this is Putin's fault.
00:19:06.320 No, I doubt it.
00:19:07.800 I think that Biden derided himself and his administration by having the Putin price rise.
00:19:17.460 And the proof of that is the two polls that came out this week after that was said, Quinnipiac and CNBC both have them down below 35% approval rating, which I've never seen before.
00:19:30.040 And I think people know that this is totally unbelievable.
00:19:35.300 If you think that Putin caused inflation in this country, and I know it's Good Friday, I'm trying to be charitable today, you're an idiot.
00:19:43.540 You're an idiot.
00:19:44.500 Okay, you are a jester, a jester.
00:19:48.560 You should wear a two-toned hat and go in and do somersaults.
00:19:53.820 Okay, because that's so insane.
00:19:56.700 Yet, Jen Psaki, I'll do the Putin front rise.
00:19:59.620 And then blaming it on Governor Abbott also, because he's checking trucks at the border and he's slowing things down.
00:20:08.320 I wouldn't do that, by the way.
00:20:09.640 I think, Abbott, that's going to hurt you and everybody else in Texas, because that is going to raise immediately the cost of fruits and vegetables coming in.
00:20:18.360 Now, I know why he's doing it, trying to embarrass the Biden administration, because there's a record amount of drugs, narcotics coming across the border.
00:20:26.340 And obviously, Biden wants, for some insane reason, unfettered foreign national access to this country.
00:20:34.860 Yeah, well, it is actually better for us here.
00:20:38.260 The fentanyl problem in Texas is just outrageous.
00:20:43.140 I have two minutes.
00:20:43.840 I want to hit a couple of other things.
00:20:45.440 Your thoughts on China and Shanghai, the lockdown.
00:20:50.860 Well, I think people have to understand that in these governments, whether it's Russia, whether it's China, Cuba, North Korea, that life doesn't matter.
00:21:02.140 So if you have COVID and you live in Shanghai, 24 million people in that area, you're going to go to a concentration camp.
00:21:10.120 It's unbelievable.
00:21:10.920 That's where you're going.
00:21:11.280 Okay, so if you don't get it now, and here's another factoid your audience will like.
00:21:17.500 I don't know if you will, but your audience will.
00:21:19.920 Who makes $5 billion a year from Shanghai?
00:21:24.160 Disney!
00:21:25.160 Disney Land Shanghai!
00:21:27.220 Hello, Disney!
00:21:28.080 Well, you know, it's so apparent, because you go on and you see the videos that have been, you know, made it past all of the great walls of China.
00:21:36.640 And you see what's happening in Shanghai, and then you realize no national news source is putting this out.
00:21:43.020 No, no ABC, NBC, CBS, none of them are, because they've all been bought and paid for by China.
00:21:49.160 And here's the real scandal.
00:21:51.320 Minnie Mouse got COVID.
00:21:53.020 She's in a concentration camp.
00:21:54.200 Is she really?
00:21:55.260 Yeah, Minnie's there.
00:21:56.280 Yeah.
00:21:56.560 I mean, that's a hook.
00:21:57.700 Is that not a hook?
00:21:58.660 That is.
00:21:59.460 Did we not do something there?
00:22:00.540 One more thing.
00:22:01.760 Ukraine.
00:22:03.160 Now the CIA director, CIA director, is saying nuclear weapons are probably being considered by Putin.
00:22:10.200 Are we, are we, is this, I mean, are we going to war, Bill?
00:22:15.760 Uh, no.
00:22:17.040 Not at this point.
00:22:18.580 Good.
00:22:18.760 It depends how insane Putin is, and really nobody knows that at this point.
00:22:24.480 So you can't totally discount it.
00:22:27.380 Mm-hmm.
00:22:28.060 But what good does it do for the CIA chief to say that?
00:22:31.780 I don't know.
00:22:32.600 Bill O'Reilly, his new book is coming out on May 3rd.
00:22:37.800 It is Killing the Killers, The Secret War Against Terrorists.
00:22:41.920 It's coming out from Bill O'Reilly.

00:24:11.260 Boy, I tell you, the left is exposing themselves unlike I would ever have thought possible.
00:24:26.020 Their arrogance is out of control.
00:24:28.700 We have Michael Malice joining us now.
00:24:31.140 Hi, Michael.
00:24:31.640 How are you?
00:24:32.540 Good morning.
00:24:33.360 I'm great.
00:24:33.980 I want to talk to you about what's happening to Elon Musk.
00:24:37.740 So he goes out, he buys just under 10% of Twitter.
00:24:42.560 He starts talking about, hey, you know, we can we can free people up.
00:24:46.800 Let's stop censoring people.
00:24:48.560 The media goes crazy about some billionaire that just wants to change the world.
00:24:54.660 Hello, George Soros.
00:24:55.960 Just wants to go ahead.
00:24:57.660 Jeff Bezos.
00:24:58.200 Or Jeff Bezos.
00:25:00.160 Yeah.
00:25:01.100 And he's a danger to free speech.
00:25:04.040 That's what they're actually saying.
00:25:05.180 He's a danger to free speech.
00:25:06.520 So yesterday we find out this is from Charles Gasparino.
00:25:10.240 As Elon Musk offers to buy the rest of Twitter, a legal source tells Fox Business that the SEC and the Justice Department have now launched what is described as a joint investigation into a myriad of Musk regulatory issues, primarily involving Tesla.
00:25:30.020 He is also now not the largest shareholder, because yesterday, Vanguard, which is the second in line for the top of the heap for the Great Reset, Vanguard came in and bought up a ton of shares.
00:25:46.020 I mean, what is happening?
00:25:48.020 Oh, and one other thing, the the people in in Twitter have decided to sue him for violations of, you know, not really not revealing fast enough that he was buying these shares.
00:26:03.140 They are terrified.
00:26:06.140 They should be terrified.
00:26:08.080 You know, I've said several times that Trump they thought that Trump was the river, but he was the dam.
00:26:12.580 What you're seeing is without President Trump in the White House, the consequences of the benefits of President Trump, which is an understanding of the enemy class and an acknowledgement that people have to go on offense.
00:26:24.960 And sometimes just going on offense simply means disrespect and invading spaces that they have regarded and decreed as sacred.
00:26:34.400 This started back.
00:26:36.120 I can give you an example.
00:26:38.160 When Jack Posobiec and Laura Loomer invaded the stage in New York, people don't remember this anymore.
00:26:43.960 I think it was CityPank was sponsoring Julius Caesar play in Central Park, New York City, Central Park, where every night President Trump was ritualistically murdered on stage.
00:26:56.120 And when Posobiec and Laura Loomer crashed the stage in front of the audience, this was regarded as heresy and like, how could you do this?
00:27:04.240 How could you interfere with our play where we're murdering the president at Central Park?
00:27:10.320 You people are monsters.
00:27:11.420 So it's really a wonderful thing when spaces that they said, this is our house.
00:27:18.300 We got rid of President Trump from here.
00:27:20.260 We got rid of this person, that person.
00:27:22.520 We silenced the Babylon Bee.
00:27:24.980 You know, now they're not feeling safe in their space.
00:27:27.940 They're in retreat and they don't know what to do to themselves because for a century, the Republican Party has played defense.
00:27:36.540 And Elon Musk is no Republican.
00:27:38.380 For the first time, people are playing offense and they're losing their minds because that's not how the game is supposed to go.
00:27:46.940 Correct.
00:27:47.780 So what is what do you think?
00:27:51.120 How does this end for Elon Musk and for Twitter?
00:27:54.480 I mean, basically, their their idea, the slogan of the great reset set should be, if I can't have you, no one will.
00:28:04.920 And and that's what they're trying to teach.
00:28:07.760 Elon, you are not stepping out of that box.
00:28:11.360 We we have the financial resources to cripple you.
00:28:15.540 And if that doesn't work and shame in the public square doesn't work.
00:28:20.040 Well, then we have the government as well.
00:28:21.980 Yeah, I've I've I've said several times that I'm sure you agree, Glenn.
00:28:26.400 It's often or almost always preferable when authoritarian regimes have to show their hand.
00:28:32.260 Yes.
00:28:32.540 It's much more expensive for them in every way, especially because moderates who, you know, don't really have a stake in the game and don't care one way or another.
00:28:40.920 People just apathetic when they see the heavy hand of government going down and they see things like this happening.
00:28:47.700 It's going to alienate them.
00:28:49.000 Be like, wait a minute.
00:28:49.840 These are not nice people.
00:28:51.340 These are nasty, aggressive people.
00:28:53.100 People.
00:28:53.560 We also saw it a couple of months ago when overnight Joe Rogan went from a nasty purveyor of misinformation to a racist.
00:29:01.860 It was an overnight thing.
00:29:03.140 Yeah.
00:29:03.360 And they tried to destroy him that way and it didn't work.
00:29:05.540 And everyone forgot that it didn't work.
00:29:07.420 They tried to get rid of Joe and they had nothing to show for it.
00:29:11.260 So Elon Musk is a very, very bright man.
00:29:13.680 He's a tight cookie, tough cookie.
00:29:15.660 Excuse me.
00:29:16.400 I'm sure he's had to deal with regulatory nonsense before.
00:29:19.420 I'm sure a lot of people in Washington also quietly have his back.
00:29:22.900 So this is going to be very interesting to see how it unfolds.
00:29:25.620 And Elon's not alone.
00:29:27.140 There's lots of people in his circles or maybe, you know, two or three degrees removed.
00:29:30.800 People like Peter Thiel who know the nature of the game.
00:29:33.240 People in San Francisco, people who are now in Austin.
00:29:37.420 Who are realizing this is what we're up against and this is how we're going to play.
00:29:41.740 And I got to tell you, if you're the guy who thinks you're going to put people on Mars, when you play, you play to win.
00:29:47.820 You're not some dilettante.
00:29:51.400 All right.
00:29:52.060 Let me switch topics.
00:29:53.580 Let me go to your neighborhood in New York where you used to live and what happened in your former neighborhood.
00:30:01.580 Yeah, it's been a rough couple of months to get personal, Glenn, because first of all, the city where I was born, Lvov, in Ukraine, was being hit by missiles.
00:30:08.900 Then the apartment where I lived in New York for 16 years, I was half a block away from that train station, got shot up.
00:30:15.540 And then the next train stop just yesterday or two days ago, or rather, a kid was shot in the street.
00:30:21.180 I've made this point.
00:30:22.900 It was very hard for me to leave New York.
00:30:25.400 I've lived there all my life.
00:30:26.260 I still don't know how to drive.
00:30:27.500 I moved to Austin over the past summer, as many of your listeners know.
00:30:30.920 I don't think people realize just how bad these cities are going to get because there's no mechanism of turning them around.
00:30:37.420 So if anyone out there – and what else is interesting is once you leave these places – I moved to the nation of Texas.
00:30:43.340 Looking at this footage, it feels like I'm looking at another country because that was not the New York I knew.
00:30:49.740 Obviously, 9-11 happened, things like that.
00:30:52.000 But in the sense of just this carnage and knowing what to do.
00:30:56.000 And I point out the police were pretty much helpless to even catch him.
00:30:59.440 It had to be some random kid on the street.
00:31:01.280 And also, he turned himself in.
00:31:02.560 And the other thing that's disturbing, which I wonder if you've touched on elsewhere, is every outlet at first mentioned his race.
00:31:09.880 And then they edited to remove it, including the New York Post, which is largely right of center.
00:31:15.800 I have no understanding of why this is.
00:31:18.520 Wait.
00:31:19.180 They edited after it ran?
00:31:21.160 Yes.
00:31:21.920 Yes.
00:31:22.380 I thought I was hallucinating and someone showed me the cached footage.
00:31:26.040 The New York Post originally had the identification, which everyone else had, 5'5", black male, 170 pounds.
00:31:32.100 And then they changed it to 5'5", male.
00:31:34.560 I have the clips.
00:31:35.460 That is insane.
00:31:36.700 Yes.
00:31:37.360 This is a manhunt for someone who shot up a subway station and thankfully no one got killed.
00:31:41.980 Yeah.
00:31:42.180 The New York Times, one of the stories I read, did not identify him as African-American,
00:31:46.540 but just identified his writings and videos from the web as bigoted against blacks.
00:31:54.340 That was it.
00:31:54.960 It was just bigoted against blacks and especially black women.
00:31:58.360 So no mention of all the black nationalist supremacist type of stuff he had all over the place.
00:32:04.340 None of that.
00:32:04.940 And then didn't even identify him as black.
00:32:06.980 So, I mean, if you're reading that, you're thinking for sure this is some white supremacist
00:32:10.780 who's just bigoted against black people.
00:32:12.820 They never, they just intentionally kept that out.
00:32:15.820 Do you remember when Riaz Patel came by and the first time when we started to get to know
00:32:23.980 him, he was a guy who was on the left.
00:32:25.900 He was from Hollywood and we sat down with him because he was trying to understand what
00:32:31.120 was going on and he started to, the world started to crack open for him because he was
00:32:36.120 like, wait a minute, wait, what happened?
00:32:38.520 And we sat down and I just put a chalkboard together and I said, do you know this story?
00:32:43.480 No, that didn't happen.
00:32:44.720 Yes, it did.
00:32:45.280 Here's, here's the story.
00:32:46.960 This, this, this.
00:32:48.220 We gave him like 20 different stories.
00:32:50.040 He had never heard of them.
00:32:54.120 I mean, you are just in the dark.
00:32:56.480 If you're, if you read the New York times and watch CNN, you are the least informed human
00:33:01.700 alive.
00:33:02.300 But it's also disturbing to me how this has become pervasive across media.
00:33:07.820 And in fact, there's several news outlets, I think, including the Associated Press, where
00:33:11.720 the explicit policy is we are not going to report on the race of a suspect if it's going
00:33:17.100 to have people reach racist conclusions.
00:33:19.520 And my concern is this is a manhunt.
00:33:22.940 So I, if people reach racist conclusions, that's one thing, but we need to find this person
00:33:28.600 who was on the loose, who had bombs at the time.
00:33:31.520 And you know what?
00:33:32.600 They, the FBI had this guy.
00:33:35.660 They interviewed him 19 different times.
00:33:39.700 But, you know, they were too busy.
00:33:41.360 I don't know, going woke and looking for white extremists.
00:33:46.600 You know, what do you say?
00:33:47.460 We just look for extremists.
00:33:49.640 Let's look for people that are threatening to kill people online, threatening to kill people
00:33:57.520 in their neighborhoods.
00:33:58.920 Let's look for those people.
00:34:00.480 I don't give a flying crap what their race is.
00:34:04.160 You know, YouTube, all of his videos were up, all of them.
00:34:09.300 Can you imagine, Michael, if you would have said anything like that?
00:34:13.660 You would have been gone immediately and erased from public record.
00:34:18.440 Well, I'm an anarchist, so I've said some pretty bad things.
00:34:20.780 But in all seriousness, how about we just enforce the Second Amendment?
00:34:26.360 Because if there were several honest citizens on that subway station who were packing heat,
00:34:32.120 things would have ended up very, very differently.
00:34:34.440 That subway station, obviously, I'm very familiar with it.
00:34:36.280 I take it every day for 15 years.
00:34:38.380 There's only one exit, and it's a major hub.
00:34:40.420 There's four train lines that go through there.
00:34:41.920 So this could have been much, much worse, even from the smoke alone.
00:34:45.340 I will tell you, it is phenomenal.
00:34:48.780 It is a miracle that this guy goes in and shoots, what, 35 times?
00:34:54.500 And no one is killed?
00:34:57.780 I mean, Michael, you've been on that subway.
00:34:59.640 I've been there.
00:35:00.740 I mean, that's almost impossible to do.
00:35:05.200 Well, and just you with the smoke inhalation.
00:35:07.380 I mean, he had several bombs and the gum jam and so on and so forth.
00:35:10.920 Yeah, it's a very, very lucky thing, and we're very fortunate.
00:35:13.920 And it's also we're very fortunate that he didn't leave the subway and just start shooting somewhere else.
00:35:18.240 I mean, the number of stations out there is just dozens.
00:35:20.920 So this is also very disturbing in terms of other types of terrorism because he showed very clearly how easy it would be to do something like this.
00:35:29.300 And God help us if someone else gets the same idea.
00:35:31.960 Thank you so much.
00:35:33.300 Do you celebrate Passover?
00:35:35.660 Are you religious at all or believe in God?
00:35:38.400 I'm not religious at all.
00:35:40.960 I'm not an atheist, though.
00:35:42.080 Okay.
00:35:42.720 Are you an agnostic or?
00:35:44.620 No, I'm not a coward.
00:35:45.980 No.
00:35:49.360 All right.
00:35:50.240 God bless you, man.

00:35:55.520 My pillow.
00:35:56.540 Some people like to go home at night and, you know, do some Netflix and chill.
00:36:01.640 Me?

00:36:31.300 Is that a scientific term?
00:36:32.980 Mm-hmm.
00:36:33.260 Fluffy?
00:36:33.760 Yes.
00:36:34.380 Or is it just a dog's name of a really rich lady who carries the dog in her purse?
00:36:40.600 Not sure.

00:37:12.120 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:37:29.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:37:31.300 I am just, I have to tell you, Elon Musk is the billionaire we would all want to be.
00:37:39.500 Right?
00:37:40.360 I mean.
00:37:41.080 100%.
00:37:41.640 This is how I would do it.
00:37:42.780 This is exactly how I would do it.
00:37:44.400 I might have different causes and things, you know.
00:37:46.400 Like, I'd go to Mars probably for the same reason, not global warming, but his main reason
00:37:51.540 on why he's doing it so quickly is if Homo sapiens, if it's important to preserve Homo sapiens,
00:37:59.060 get them off this planet by the end of the decade.
00:38:01.580 I believe that, too.
00:38:03.660 But the idea that he's just like, yeah, we're going to Mars.
00:38:06.840 Well, you got to call NASA?
00:38:08.280 No.
00:38:08.620 I'm just going to build a spaceship.
00:38:09.920 Yeah.
00:38:10.180 He just does what he wants.
00:38:11.280 He does what he wants.
00:38:12.260 And, you know, yesterday, Vanguard disclosed that it owns now 82.4 million shares of Twitter
00:38:19.880 or 10.3.
00:38:21.180 So, he's no longer the main, the biggest shareholder.
00:38:28.260 We don't know that.
00:38:29.180 Remember, the 9% number is from a disclosure that's old.
00:38:33.320 I know.
00:38:33.640 Like, he may have 15, 20% of it by now.
00:38:36.180 We don't know.
00:38:36.580 So, he made the offer to buy Twitter outright yesterday, saying that it needed to be transformed
00:38:41.660 into a private business, the Thrive again.
00:38:43.940 And so, he said, I'll buy it for $40 billion.
00:38:48.540 The Twitter shareholder, Saudi Prince, Alawid, who is a nightmare, rejected Musk's bid.
00:38:57.960 And he says, no, we're not going to, I'm not going to sell.
00:39:00.740 During a TED Talk earlier yesterday, Musk said, Musk was asked, what would happen if the board
00:39:07.840 doesn't accept, you said you're not going to go any higher.
00:39:12.180 Is there a plan B?
00:39:14.080 Musk just smiled and said, yes, there is.
00:39:18.220 I can't wait.
00:39:20.560 Hopefully, it involves launching the Twitter board into space.
00:39:27.140 And by the way, Twitter should just, I mean, I know this isn't like the main consideration,
00:39:31.960 but Twitter should just accept this offer.
00:39:34.220 It's way above what they're worth.
00:39:36.340 Oh, but they won't.
00:39:37.860 They should just take it.
00:39:39.360 It's the best thing for their shareholders.
00:39:40.800 They don't have any idea how to get money out of that company.
00:39:44.200 And it's been a complete, with all of the free advertising, there has never been a product
00:39:49.040 in American history that has received more free advertising than Twitter.
00:39:53.080 Every news broadcast, every celebrity, everybody's on it all the time.
00:39:57.520 Everybody's putting it in mainstream media all the time.
00:40:01.220 And yet, these guys barely trickle out cash out of that company.
00:40:05.600 Not only would Elon Musk go in and make it better for free speech, which is what everyone
00:40:10.080 is talking about, but he'd also make the company, he would create so much money out of the foundation
00:40:18.380 of that company.
00:40:19.080 They don't care.
00:40:19.960 This is about, this is, again, I go back to the Great Reset.
00:40:23.400 I think the slogan should be, if I can't have it, no one will.
00:40:27.660 They don't care.
00:40:28.780 This is not about anything other than controlling the narrative.
00:40:33.700 It's true.
00:40:34.640 And, you know, Twitter has outsized impact on our politics for, you know, as we've mentioned
00:40:39.260 many times, nobody uses this.
00:40:41.160 Nobody uses Twitter.
00:40:42.320 Nobody uses it for politics.
00:40:44.000 I mean, the people that we talk about on Twitter who are constantly tweeting about politics
00:40:47.780 is like one-tenth of one percent of the population.
00:40:50.720 It's almost no one.
00:40:51.860 These other social media companies are much bigger and are much more widely used.
00:40:56.880 This is what the Twitter board said.
00:40:59.560 One of the people remaining anonymous said yesterday, this is the thing that journalists
00:41:07.880 use to get stories.
00:41:10.600 And they don't want to be working for a Musk company.
00:41:14.120 And they don't want to be working like calling sources.
00:41:16.340 They just want to search Twitter.
00:41:17.820 And that's how they do all their work now.
00:41:19.960 That's why they like it.
00:41:20.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:27.000 So every day I get up, you know, I run eight miles.
00:41:30.180 Okay, that's not true.
00:41:31.600 Actually, I run 10 miles, but I don't count the first two because I'm running with a jump
00:41:36.420 rope.
00:41:36.880 So anyway, then I lift weights for about an hour and a half.
00:41:40.480 And boy, I work up a powerful sweat.
00:41:42.920 That's why athletes like me use sweat block.
00:41:47.380 Also, I hear it's good for big, fat, sweaty people.
00:41:51.320 And teenagers, if you have a problem with sweat, this is the best deodorant antiperspirant
00:41:59.140 I've ever used.
00:42:00.420 This is really good.

00:42:20.120 on or anything for seven days.

00:43:38.180 We've been doing a series on America's God all week.
00:43:43.960 We're gonna finish it up here in the next couple of minutes, and I really want to just
00:43:48.500 focus on one thing, the turnaround of the Civil War.
00:43:52.340 A proclamation by Abraham Lincoln that went through the Senate.
00:43:56.660 And not only can I tell you that this would never go through the Senate now, I can tell
00:44:03.660 you with 100% assurity it wouldn't, because I've asked the Senate to pass this proclamation.
00:44:14.320 They wouldn't even submit it.
00:44:17.940 I'll give it to you in 60 seconds.
00:44:19.960 So if you're gonna put forth the effort to take care of your skin and look younger, you

00:45:32.880 So, halfway through the Civil War, we were losing badly.
00:45:41.840 And Abraham Lincoln had a great awakening in himself.
00:45:46.780 And a proclamation was passed by the U.S. Senate.
00:45:50.460 I want to read it to you and tell me it doesn't fit our situation today.
00:45:55.020 A proclamation by His Excellency Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, for a day of
00:46:01.900 humiliation, fasting, and prayer.
00:46:05.800 Whereas the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the supreme authority and just
00:46:12.920 government of Almighty God in all of the affairs of men and nations, has, by resolution, requested
00:46:20.520 the President to designate and set apart a day for national prayer and humiliation.
00:46:27.500 And whereas it is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling
00:46:36.320 power of God, to confess their sins and their transgressions in humble sorrow, yet with assured
00:46:44.760 hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truths
00:46:52.040 announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history that those nations only are blessed
00:46:59.360 whose God is the Lord.
00:47:02.640 We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven, but we have forgotten God.
00:47:09.580 We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, multiplied and enriched and strengthened
00:47:17.700 us.
00:47:18.900 We have vainly imagined in our deceitfulness of our hearts that all these blessings were produced
00:47:25.760 by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own.
00:47:29.320 Intoxicated now with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity
00:47:38.780 of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us.
00:47:46.520 It behooves us then to humble ourselves before the offended power, to confess our national sins,
00:47:53.400 and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.
00:47:57.080 Abraham Lincoln
00:47:57.980 I asked the Senate to pass that resolution just, what, two months into COVID.
00:48:09.260 They wouldn't do it.
00:48:12.860 Today, words like humiliation and repentance are completely misunderstood.
00:48:17.440 For some, they're associated with shame, guilt, fire, brimstone, and for others, it's just
00:48:23.800 a get-out-of-jail-free card on your way back to doing whatever it is you want at the strip club.
00:48:27.980 But it is neither one of those things.
00:48:31.460 In Hebrew, the word for repentance is teshuva, which literally means to turn.
00:48:38.920 It's about changing what you do, just as much as it is about the condition of your heart.
00:48:44.680 When we repent, we turn around and start over in the other direction, the right direction.
00:48:51.480 And that's not easy.
00:48:53.860 I mean, it takes incredible faith to humble yourself and turn and start walking in a different direction.
00:49:03.980 It's not easy, but it's possible.
00:49:08.920 At the beginning of the series, I started it by talking about what was happening in France at the revolution.
00:49:13.740 But now, let me take you to the other example where it went wrong, where people said,
00:49:19.140 God is dead, and filled that void with something else.
00:49:24.840 And it was Nazi Germany.
00:49:27.040 No matter what you read or what you hear, the left has distorted the Nazis.
00:49:33.700 Hitler was not a Christian, but he knew he couldn't take out the Christian church head on.
00:49:42.280 So what did he do?
00:49:43.760 They infiltrated from the inside, eroding its values and its relevance from within.
00:49:50.360 Over an afternoon lunch in his headquarters in 1942, Hitler said, and I quote,
00:49:57.820 I do not care in the slightest about the articles of faith.
00:50:02.520 The organized lie has to be broken in such a way the state becomes the master.
00:50:08.780 You can't rush things.
00:50:10.460 It has to rot away like a gangrenous limb.
00:50:14.280 We need to we need to get to the point where only idiots stand behind the pulpits and only old women sit in front of it and the healthy youth are with us.
00:50:27.460 End quote.
00:50:29.700 Hitler expected Christianity to slowly suffocate and die under the duress of the state and in its own inaction and irrelevance.
00:50:38.840 But in the meantime, he would use that institution to spread his propaganda.
00:50:44.820 It took him about six months before they took the picture of Jesus off of the altars in Germany and replaced the savior with the new savior, Hitler.
00:50:57.900 Unfortunately, they spread it mostly thanks to the movement called the German Christians.
00:51:02.480 Under the influence of the German Christians, the church went to work right away to rinse that Jew right out of Jesus hair, spread the good news of Hitler.
00:51:15.280 German pastor Hermann Grunner preached Hitler is the way of the spirit and the will of God for the German people to enter the church of Christ.
00:51:24.920 What's truly shocking is that the German Christians were at work in the church before Hitler took power.
00:51:32.740 They were priming the congregations by slowly shifting the focus away from God in the Bible and creating a new Aryan God.
00:51:42.180 German Christians insisted that loyalty to the Nazi agenda was at its core Christian and a matter of faith.
00:51:49.900 Hard to imagine that everyone behind the pulpit or sitting in the pews agreed with this, but so many said nothing.
00:52:00.000 Miraculously, some did finally break their silence.
00:52:03.040 It was Martin Niemöller.
00:52:04.620 He sat back, actually, as Hitler installed his dictatorship.
00:52:08.400 He didn't intervene until the German Christians started to Aryanize the Bible and purge the Bible of all Jewish elements, including the entire Old Testament.
00:52:19.900 See if this sounds familiar.
00:52:22.220 They were reimagining the Bible.
00:52:25.760 They were reimagining Jesus.
00:52:29.020 He became a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, anti-Semitic Aryan.
00:52:34.820 This is when Niemöller had enough.
00:52:37.380 He helped organize a movement called the Confessing Church, which challenged the German Christians and insisted that Nazism not make demands of the church itself.
00:52:48.040 Although Niemöller was primarily focused on Nazi intrusion into the church, other prominent leaders of the movement called for the followers to challenge Nazism on every front.
00:53:00.840 One of those guys was a man named Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
00:53:04.860 Bonhoeffer was the guy who diagnosed the German church and said they suffered from a theology of cheap grace.
00:53:14.180 They wanted redemption, but not really repentance.
00:53:18.200 They wanted to live in any way they wanted and wear the covering of God like a cheap rain poncho.
00:53:24.860 Then the Third Reich collapsed, and the gods of the copybook headings returned, and the church had no idea how to pick up the pieces.
00:53:37.360 The rest of the story in a minute.
00:53:42.000 Joy wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor.
00:53:44.680 She says, Relief Factor is absolutely wonderful.
00:53:47.560 I'm able to sleep through the night pain-free.
00:53:50.220 It's everything, Glenn, you say it is.
00:53:52.200 I've had severe neuropathy for several years, as well as a hip that was broken.
00:53:56.700 I feel like a new woman now.
00:53:58.400 I enjoy the freedom from the pain.
00:54:00.900 Thank you, and thanks also to my son, who finally talked me into getting it.
00:54:07.440 All right, if you really want relief, if you've tried everything else, will you just try this for three weeks?
00:54:13.560 $19.95, it'll give you—it's a dollar a day.
00:54:16.500 It will give you three pills a day, or actually, I think it's 12 pills a day.
00:54:22.680 And you just take one packet, breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
00:54:26.560 And I'm telling you, it worked for me.
00:54:28.640 And about 70% of the people who try this trial pack for three weeks go on to order more month after month.
00:54:34.520 So just try it.
00:54:36.060 800-4-RELIEF.
00:54:37.920 800, the number 4, RELIEF.

00:54:58.640 Reconstruction quickly turned punitive towards Germany.
00:55:08.740 Life for the Germans under Hitler was hell.
00:55:11.960 But the hell continued after his failure.
00:55:15.020 The German people had been the victims of unprecedented psychological capture.
00:55:21.020 And for those who woke up, they were not only left with the collapse of their nation, but
00:55:25.860 they were shouldering the most unbearable guilt.
00:55:29.840 The international church leaders had a decision to make.
00:55:33.400 Would they ostracize the Germans as their political counterparts had?
00:55:39.460 Should the people of God handle these obscene circumstances the same way or differently?
00:55:45.800 The church, like every German, needed a new start.
00:55:50.700 So the believers did the only thing they knew would work.
00:55:54.900 After the Third Reich collapsed, the gathering of Christians took place October 19, 1941, in
00:56:00.800 Stuttgart, Germany.
00:56:02.540 At the gathering, Bonhoeffer was praised for his unwavering faith.
00:56:07.380 He wasn't there.
00:56:08.260 He had just months before been executed in a concentration camp.
00:56:13.040 Pastor Niemöller preached that the Nazis alone were not to blame, but the church itself.
00:56:18.760 Not because they were Christian, but because they had abandoned their Christianity.
00:56:26.140 Would the Nazis have been able to do what they had done if church members had truly been
00:56:30.780 faithful Christians?
00:56:32.560 From this event sprang forth the Stuttgart Declaration of Guilt on behalf of the church.
00:56:38.040 And here's what it said.
00:56:38.860 With great pain, we say, by us, infinite wrong was brought over many peoples and countries.
00:56:46.580 We did fight for long years in the name of Jesus Christ against the mentality that found
00:56:52.640 its awful expression in the national socialist regime of violence.
00:56:57.820 But we accuse ourselves for not standing to our beliefs more courageously, for not praying
00:57:04.260 more faithfully, for not believing more joyously, and for not loving more ardently.
00:57:11.040 Following the collapse of Hitler's regime, the faithful Germans professed that they had failed
00:57:15.860 as a body of believers.
00:57:18.080 Their failure, their failure was, was extraordinary.
00:57:25.600 But not so much, because this happens time and time again.
00:57:34.320 We all fail on extreme levels, more than we care to face.
00:57:39.640 But what was extraordinary was their ability to look at their failure in the face and choose
00:57:44.780 to change.
00:57:45.460 They just did it too late.
00:57:47.240 The Christians of Germany were called to repent on their knees, and miraculously, some answered
00:57:53.760 that call.
00:57:57.360 Here's why I wanted to end this series with this.
00:58:04.020 Right now, we have bastardized our faiths.
00:58:09.560 Our faiths are silent.
00:58:13.720 Some have been infiltrated by wokeness.
00:58:17.240 As we told you yesterday, wokeness is a cult.
00:58:21.860 It is a religious movement to a false god.
00:58:30.600 A god that puts you at the center of the universe, but the universe is meaningless.
00:58:36.820 Your truth, not the truth, your truth, but that truth is worth nothing.
00:58:46.300 Are we going to go down in history as a group of people that failed to see the answers, even
00:58:55.660 though it was staring them in the face?
00:59:00.280 Are we really prepared to write our declaration of guilt in the future?
00:59:05.520 We should start preparing for it now.
00:59:10.000 People of God, do you want to have to apologize for watching evil rise in our nations all across
00:59:16.880 the world and say nothing?
00:59:20.180 Religious leaders, can you continue to be silent as God and goodness is attacked from
00:59:26.480 all angles?
00:59:27.460 Is your job really?
00:59:34.000 Is that really what you worship?
00:59:36.980 Or will you do the things that Niemöller did or the things that Bonhoeffer did?
00:59:46.000 America, have we hit rock bottom yet?
00:59:48.080 Please tell me we have.
00:59:49.040 I'm an alcoholic and my mother, my mother committed suicide.
00:59:56.260 She was also an alcoholic, addicted to prescription drugs as well.
01:00:00.320 Her bottom was death.
01:00:03.200 And you can't stop anybody from, I mean, if you're suicidal and that's your bottom and
01:00:09.400 you're hooked on drugs or whatever and that's your bottom, nobody can stop you.
01:00:14.160 But I hope our bottom is not that.
01:00:18.960 Are we there yet?
01:00:20.520 Because this isn't working and everybody knows what we're doing right now is not working.
01:00:27.000 Conservatives are supposed to conserve the best ideas from the past.
01:00:31.080 Not all of it, just the best parts.
01:00:33.460 Have we done that?
01:00:34.220 If we continue on this path of least resistance, of non-action, I shudder to think what our letter
01:00:45.520 of apology will sound like.
01:00:48.640 I wrote one just to have it handy.
01:00:53.880 I apologize for standing by why millions of unborn babies are slaughtered.
01:00:59.340 I said nothing when activists tried to re-segregate our nation.
01:01:06.140 I even helped sometimes.
01:01:08.640 Israel was slandered and attacked and I ignored it.
01:01:12.480 I didn't protest when my church was shut down, but the liquor store was allowed to open.
01:01:19.000 I was apathetic to the government trampling on my congregation's rights.
01:01:23.540 I couldn't really be bothered to comment as young people permanently mutilated themselves
01:01:29.960 after being told that they were born in the wrong body.
01:01:34.300 I outwardly participated in every destructive social movement to protect myself.
01:01:40.900 I leaned on my own understanding.
01:01:43.240 I acted in my own self-interest.
01:01:45.780 I did what everybody else was doing.
01:01:49.060 I didn't have the faith to resist.
01:01:51.660 I lacked the spiritual countenance.
01:01:56.080 And because of my inaction, the body of God became crippled.
01:02:00.940 The people lived without love and died without hope.
01:02:04.980 I was not part of the Calvary when it finally came.
01:02:09.780 I apologize and may God forgive me.
01:02:14.840 I don't want to ever, ever have to say those words and mean them.
01:02:21.660 Maybe you should write yours today.
01:02:25.440 And then do what Abraham Lincoln said.
01:02:31.620 Become humble.
01:02:34.480 Know who the real power comes from.
01:02:38.660 Repent.
01:02:40.040 Because that's what Easter is all about.
01:02:42.640 This is the most holy holiday of all holidays for Christians.
01:02:47.600 It's not Christmas.
01:02:49.860 Great.
01:02:50.520 The baby was born.
01:02:51.840 Prophecy fulfilled.
01:02:52.720 That's great.
01:02:54.360 But what he did 33 years later.
01:02:58.580 In giving us the opportunity to begin again.
01:03:02.240 But we as an individual, we as a country cannot begin again unless we are humbled and have hit our bottom and say, I surrender.
01:03:13.100 My way has not been the right way.
01:03:20.720 I tell you now, the kingdom of God is at hand.
01:03:25.680 In the end, we all have the right, the privilege.
01:03:30.480 And the responsibility to choose our own path.
01:03:38.400 There's not going to be a single person left on the sidelines.
01:03:41.860 As Bonhoeffer said back then, not to speak is to speak.
01:03:48.380 Not to choose is to choose.
01:03:51.760 And as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

01:05:43.740 He obviously didn't get the memo that it's Hawaiian shirt day here in the studio.
01:05:47.440 But welcome, David.
01:05:49.180 Hey, Glenn.
01:05:49.620 I want to talk to you a little bit here on Good Friday and Easter weekend.
01:05:55.720 We've been I don't know if you've if you've heard the segments all week, but we started looking at America's God.
01:06:04.840 We're not it's not that we don't have enough religion.
01:06:08.260 We have more than enough religion.
01:06:11.140 It's just a false God.
01:06:13.380 It's wokeness.
01:06:15.360 And we've got to we got to change that.
01:06:19.020 The big problem here on a great awakening is our churches are asleep.
01:06:25.320 Do great awakenings happen when are they led by the church or are they led by the people?
01:06:32.580 It's interesting.
01:06:33.660 They're led by individuals usually and the church is usually the one who opposes the most.
01:06:38.720 Isn't that amazing?
01:06:39.260 And so like you take a George Woodfield.
01:06:41.360 I mean, he is a minister, but he preached outside primarily first because nobody let him inside.
01:06:47.420 And so he needed to preach outside later because he had 10, 20,000 in a crowd.
01:06:52.120 So he needed something.
01:06:53.420 But at the first man, they hated him and they opposed him.
01:06:57.840 And the same with Charles Finney in the second great awakening, the same with Lorenzo Dow and Charles Clay and all these awakenings are always the first one led to the American Revolution.
01:07:07.240 Yeah, it led to it.
01:07:10.240 And it's really kind of interesting.
01:07:11.820 It gave what it really did was it gave people backbone and they started standing for what was right.
01:07:17.600 And then the other side responded and came after him.
01:07:20.600 Right.
01:07:20.800 And so it's not like they started anything.
01:07:22.700 They just finally got some courage and had some convictions and stood for it.
01:07:26.640 Because I think most people and that's the problem, I think, with most churches is I do not want a church to tell me who to vote for.
01:07:35.380 I do want information.
01:07:38.460 I do want my church to say, look, here's what the scriptures say, which leads you to this value.
01:07:46.680 How do you apply that value across the board?
01:07:49.300 Is this person and you don't even have to get into the people's names.
01:07:53.640 Are these people following these values?
01:07:57.200 Yeah, you really want the church, as you're saying right there, to help you think through things, to really give you a thinking process.
01:08:04.160 Now, I'm going to say I don't have any problem at all if the church wants to tell me who to vote for.
01:08:08.520 And I do that from a constitutional standpoint because I don't want a church thinking it has less rights than a union has.
01:08:13.160 No, no, no, no.
01:08:13.580 I'm saying as my personal view is, you know, I just, gosh, I just don't want everything to be political.
01:08:20.300 However, I do want them to do.
01:08:23.400 I want clarity.
01:08:24.480 I want clarity and boldness.
01:08:25.720 Right.
01:08:26.220 They preached about abortion.
01:08:29.460 They preached about, I mean, most of the stuff that is in our constitution is directly from scripture or directly from preachers that had made that concept popular.
01:08:43.160 Because it is in the Bible.
01:08:44.340 Well, if you take the Declaration of Independence, historians have documented that every single right set forth in the Declaration of Independence had been preached from the American pulpit by 1763.
01:08:56.060 So 15 years before the Declaration, every right in the Declaration had already been covered in the pulpit.
01:09:01.300 And that's why John Adams says our pulpits have thundered.
01:09:04.240 And he listed a bunch of preachers by name who were very specific on that.
01:09:08.240 If you take any right in the Declaration, it was already seen as a biblical right.
01:09:12.680 So is this why we feel like our churches are so empty?
01:09:16.700 Oh, they are empty.
01:09:17.900 It's interesting.
01:09:19.460 And I'm speaking as a Christian.
01:09:21.580 We know lots of other faiths.
01:09:22.980 Great.
01:09:23.820 Speaking as a Christian, in the year 2000, 85% of Americans professed to be Christians.
01:09:30.960 That's their self-identification.
01:09:33.020 Last year, it was 65%.
01:09:34.820 So it's a 20% drop in 20 years.
01:09:37.500 And when you poll the people who left the church and say, why did you leave?
01:09:42.320 Two out of three said, because it has no relevancy.
01:09:44.720 I get nothing that I can live with on a daily basis.
01:09:48.040 And I totally agree with that.
01:09:49.840 I mean, when I look back at what the pastors did in those days, and I brought in a bunch of stuff out of the collection.
01:09:55.740 And these are all sermons.
01:09:56.680 These are all sermons.
01:09:57.780 Okay.
01:09:58.000 And these are all sermons.
01:09:58.700 And by the way, these are all sermons that were preached in times of what we would call revival, the first or the second great awakening.
01:10:05.200 And what you'll find is what they connected the dots on was relevancy.
01:10:09.040 And you can just almost not find a single subject that they didn't cover from the pulpit, even if it was super controversial.
01:10:16.080 It's crazy, I know, yeah.
01:10:16.980 And so, you know, if I just – I'll try to read through some of these.
01:10:20.380 So here's a history sermon, which I think is cool.
01:10:23.220 This is a sermon about pilgrims and what the pilgrims contributed.
01:10:25.960 We haven't had that.
01:10:26.820 We need that since we got 1619.
01:10:28.880 Here's a sermon by Charles Chauncey, who's one of John Adams' favorite preachers, about the Boston Massacre.
01:10:34.560 So this is in the news, and this is preached just a couple weeks afterwards.
01:10:39.560 This is called a century sermon.
01:10:40.940 This is looking at the last history, what's happened in the country in the last century.
01:10:44.280 So we were big into history.
01:10:45.700 So this is the last century.
01:10:47.300 This is a sermon on the moral view of railroads.
01:10:50.880 The moral view of railroads.
01:10:53.620 Yeah, because what he did is, okay, what are the biblical principles of transportation in the Bible?
01:10:58.280 Let's see what the Bible says about transportation.
01:10:59.940 Well, here's the new technology.
01:11:01.360 How does it fit with the principles?
01:11:02.740 So he goes into principles of transportation and then says –
01:11:05.180 Was it for or against railroads?
01:11:06.860 Actually, he saw very positive things that could come from railroads.
01:11:11.680 Here's one on science, snow and vapor, which is a Bible verse out of Job.
01:11:15.380 Here's one on the murderous bloodshed at Lexington.
01:11:19.760 This is a sermon that was preached three years after Lexington and Concord.
01:11:24.060 So they're covering news stories.
01:11:26.300 Here's a sermon on the opening of the Great Bridge over the Connecticut River.
01:11:29.780 So here you've got architecture.
01:11:32.540 Here is a sermon on the infirmities and comforts of old age.
01:11:37.320 Now, everybody's got to deal with growing old, but I haven't heard a sermon on that.
01:11:41.440 What do you do and where are you headed?
01:11:43.700 Here's a sermon on the policy and the injustice of the slave trade and the slavery of the Africans.
01:11:49.480 So we're right in the middle of cultural issues at that point in time.
01:11:53.020 Here's a sermon on the relation of the medical profession to the ministry, all the health care codes of the Bible.
01:11:58.680 And there's a bunch of them.
01:12:00.100 I mean, that's why the Jews were always blamed when disease broke out.
01:12:04.660 They didn't get sick.
01:12:05.480 They didn't get sick because they followed the health codes of the Bible.
01:12:09.540 There's a great book that came out way back in 1961 by Dr. S.I. McMillan.
01:12:14.200 And he said, you know, when God gave all these health codes in the Bible, he said at the time, the Egyptians and the Assyrians and Babylonians all said, look how backward these people are.
01:12:22.280 Look at their health codes.
01:12:23.100 And God at the time in Exodus 15, 26, after he gave the health codes, he said, if you'll do the things that I've told you here, I'll put on you none of the diseases that I put on the Egyptians.
01:12:33.620 In other words, you'll have a whole different health system than what everybody else has.
01:12:37.140 And that's what they that's what they stuck with.
01:12:39.580 And so that's the kind of sermons we had was here's the Bible and health.
01:12:43.160 And I haven't ever heard anything on that in my lifetime.
01:12:46.400 Here's a sermon.
01:12:47.660 Dr. Jonathan Mayhew.
01:12:49.260 He's one of John Adams favorite preachers.
01:12:51.500 And it's the Great Fire in Boston.
01:12:53.020 Anything that was in the news, they covered from the pulpit.
01:12:55.560 Always gave a perspective on it.
01:12:57.820 Here's a sermon on the execution of Henry Blackburn for the murder of George Wilkinson.
01:13:03.040 So a guy being executed.
01:13:04.460 Let's see what that's whether that's right, wrong or indifferent.
01:13:07.700 Here's a sermon on the death of General Lafayette.
01:13:10.000 So if a famous person died, we looked at that.
01:13:12.040 Here is a sermon.
01:13:14.740 Let's see.
01:13:15.820 Here is a sermon on the Christian patriot.
01:13:18.280 So responsibilities of government.
01:13:20.120 And here's a sermon on the Christian use of property.
01:13:22.780 Here's a sermon on the divine right of the American government.
01:13:26.860 Here's one on the transatlantic telegraph.
01:13:30.460 So a sermon on the lane of the transatlantic telegraph.
01:13:33.320 Here's a sermon on the civil war as seen from the pulpit.
01:13:37.040 Here's one on immigration and the modern immigrant.
01:13:39.540 Can you imagine going to going to church and hearing a sermon on AI?
01:13:48.340 Yeah.
01:13:49.300 You know, on the ethical use of AI or quantum computing or the Internet that just didn't end in porn.
01:13:58.180 You know what I mean?
01:13:59.740 Like the railroad and things.
01:14:02.440 And the bridge and all the bridge, all of these things.
01:14:04.820 And I think this is my biggest problem with faith right now, going to churches, is they're not.
01:14:13.360 We have, in my lifetime, I have never seen a time where there are more unanswered, even unquestioned moral quandaries.
01:14:27.460 We are on the precipice of, we don't even know how to define life.
01:14:33.300 And we're about to reinvent life.
01:14:36.100 You know, we don't know the basic defense or stance on really huge questions.
01:14:43.420 I've never seen this before in my life.
01:14:46.540 That's the way churches will become relevant again.
01:14:48.940 It's where we are at this point in the country because there's 384,000 churches and senior pastors in America.
01:14:56.220 And people like George Barna polling 500 a day, what we find is that 72% do not even agree with the scriptures.
01:15:02.620 They don't even think the scriptures are valid or have any influence.
01:15:06.140 How many?
01:15:06.980 72%.
01:15:07.580 So what that leaves you is 107,000 pastors that say, we believe the scriptures and we believe that it's relevant.
01:15:15.940 So the 107,000 pastors is 28% polling done with 500 a day to say, okay, do you think the Bible addresses all issues that happen around you?
01:15:25.980 And we gave 14 issues.
01:15:28.200 And depending on what the issue was, between 91 and 97% of those pastors said, yes, the Bible does address those issues.
01:15:35.000 And then we said, okay, have you addressed that issue from the pulpit or do you have any plans to address that issue?
01:15:42.020 And 90% said, absolutely not.
01:15:44.000 Those are political things.
01:15:44.940 We don't cover that from the pulpit.
01:15:46.360 But wait a minute.
01:15:47.200 You just told me that was in the scriptures and you're not going to say what the scriptures said.
01:15:51.300 So what we find is only 2.8% of pastors a day do anything related to relevancy, applying the scriptures to what's going on in the culture.
01:16:00.200 These guys, by and large, have talked themselves into a position of silence.
01:16:04.220 And the result is that you see people now with their faith is completely compartmentalized.
01:16:09.640 Here's my faith on Sunday, but here's not my faith on Wednesday or Tuesday or Thursday afternoon or anything else.
01:16:15.640 And so the faith is no longer relevant.
01:16:17.800 You don't get this kind of relevancy anymore that we had.
01:16:20.120 So, David, give me just two minutes on the impact of just people who probably have never voted before or one church getting together and saying, oh, the school board, we're going to stand up.
01:16:36.740 Can you give –
01:16:37.320 I can give you a lot more than one, but I'll just take you real quickly to Yonkin's race in Virginia.
01:16:42.300 312 churches got together last January and said, look, we need to have a difference.
01:16:47.980 What Northam did, he just passed a bill that says if you try to abort a child and you don't do it and it lives, it's okay to kill it after it's born.
01:16:55.360 And they gave a standing ovation for that measure.
01:16:57.740 And that's just a wicked measure.
01:16:59.160 I mean, that's just bad.
01:17:00.000 And so 312 churches, most of them rural churches, got together and said, hmm, this is not good.
01:17:05.220 We got an election coming in November.
01:17:07.380 And so back in January, they started looking and they said, okay, let's find people who sit in our pews, in our churches.
01:17:13.340 And again, these weren't large churches.
01:17:15.140 And let's find people who have never voted for, who haven't even registered to vote.
01:17:19.120 And let's get them registered and have them vote for the first time.
01:17:22.060 And they did.
01:17:22.700 And they had 77,000 people out of those 312 churches who had never before voted who voted for Yonkin.
01:17:28.400 Yonkin won by 66,000 votes.
01:17:31.660 So right there, out of tens of thousands of churches in Virginia, 312 little churches did that.
01:17:36.480 They didn't stop there.
01:17:37.680 They said, by the way, they said, in 1 Timothy, we're told that an athlete is not crowned unless he runs according to the rules.
01:17:44.620 So what are the rules?
01:17:45.700 And they looked at elections and 1,300 people from the churches got trained as election judges and election officials.
01:17:51.040 They identified 5.2% of the votes cast as fraudulent.
01:17:54.760 Now, you take out 5.2% of fraudulent votes, and there's the election again.
01:17:59.220 I mean, there's just so many things they did.
01:18:01.020 So I guess the difference is I don't ever want to be a church where, and I think some churches have become this on the left, where the God is the government.
01:18:11.100 Right.
01:18:11.320 And I guess that's why when I say I don't want to hear, you know, I don't want to hear who to vote for, you know, politics.
01:18:19.020 I guess I just don't want my church to preach that God is the government, that we have to have the government to do things.
01:18:27.540 The church should be a restraint on government and should be and should be a way to get the people in who understand Bill of Rights restrains the government, more freedom for people, whether they believe or not.

01:19:22.900 You created RealEstateAgentsIKnow?

01:19:59.220 You have to go to commercial when you're done with this.
01:20:02.240 I'm done with it.
01:20:03.520 And there you have it.
01:20:05.040 Another example of why Glenn Beck is in the Radio Hall of Fame.
01:20:11.320 RealEstateAgentsITrust.com.
01:20:13.340 RealEstateAgentsITrust.com.
01:20:15.420 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:20:17.980 This is really a time of choosing.
01:20:39.120 That's what Ronald Reagan said in the 1960s.
01:20:41.540 It's a time for choosing.
01:20:42.520 And it is.
01:20:44.780 It's a time to decide who you are, what you believe, and what you will stand up for, not just against, but for is more important.
01:20:52.600 Back in, well, back in the Oregon days, when we all gathered on the lawn or the mall in Washington, D.C.
01:21:03.140 at the steps of Abraham Lincoln, we talked to you about the Black Robe Regiment.
01:21:09.380 And there is something going on now with a lot of religious people.
01:21:14.780 They are starting to wake up.
01:21:15.960 I want you to know the National Black Robe Regiment dot com is up and really has a whole bunch of information on it.
01:21:26.760 You can also follow it on Facebook at National Black Robe Regiment on Facebook.
01:21:31.500 They have things like COVID-19 versus religious liberty and liberty.
01:21:37.480 They also have legal resources there as well, as well as a lot of those sermons, if not all of those and more up on the website that David was just talking about.
01:21:50.240 Know your rights as a church.
01:21:51.980 The Liberty Council, pastor do's and don'ts, and it is a way for pastors, and, you know, it's probably going to be a lot of pastors, like in the old days, were kicked out of their churches.
01:22:05.700 Fine. Do it.
01:22:07.560 Do it.
01:22:09.880 Because it is important now for people to stand up for the things they truly believe.
01:22:18.020 If you believe that truths are self-evident, the ones that we have always had in this country and built this country on, then it's time to stand up humbly, peacefully, but with the strength of truth coursing through your veins.
01:22:39.700 Back in a minute, the rest of the news of the day.
01:22:45.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:22:48.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:18.020 Stand up straight and hold the line.
01:23:24.180 It's a new day, I'm trying to rise.
01:23:30.580 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:23:36.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:40.340 Stand up.
01:23:41.200 Hello, America.
01:23:42.520 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:44.000 We have a ton to cover this hour.
01:23:46.160 Just in the news of the day, we're going to get to it in 60 seconds.
01:23:49.460 Stand by.
01:23:50.320 It's Friday.
01:23:52.100 When the enemy is at the gates, leaving the drawbridge down over the boat, kind of an incredibly bad idea.
01:23:57.520 But believe it or not, that's kind of how a lot of us live when it comes to our personal information and online interactions.
01:24:03.780 So much of who we are and what we have is wrapped up in your private information.
01:24:09.620 You've got to protect it.
01:24:10.600 It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft affects all of our lives.
01:24:15.620 And every day, I know I do.
01:24:17.460 You most likely do, too.
01:24:18.700 You put your information at risk on the internet.
01:24:21.780 That's why LifeLock is here.

01:25:02.340 So, Stu, yesterday, a judge in Washington, D.C., decided to release Ali and Tahirazeta.
01:25:16.800 Is that his name?
01:25:17.580 Tahirazeta?
01:25:18.100 The two guys that were posing as DHS.
01:25:21.440 Oh, yeah.
01:25:22.000 Okay.
01:25:22.480 They're DHS agents.
01:25:23.880 They were living in an apartment where other Secret Service agents lived.
01:25:28.240 Like Jill Biden's Secret Service.
01:25:31.300 And they befriended them.
01:25:33.280 They gave them all sorts of gifts that would be strange to accept, I think, as a Secret Service agent.
01:25:38.640 And, you know, they had all kinds of communication equipment.
01:25:42.620 They had encrypted hard drives.
01:25:46.120 They had hard drive copiers.
01:25:48.180 They had the manuals, the government manuals for Secret Service.
01:25:53.500 They had the government manuals for the Department of Homeland Security.
01:25:57.320 They had bulletproof vests.
01:26:00.480 They had different markings that you put on that for different, you know, for FBI, DHS, Secret Service.
01:26:05.940 Yeah.
01:26:06.100 And all of this adds up to understandable suspicion until you understand that they said they just wanted to make friends.
01:26:12.580 Right.
01:26:13.340 And that explains the drone, the high-end drone that they had as well.
01:26:17.480 Do you think drones are cool?
01:26:18.400 I do.
01:26:18.740 I do.
01:26:19.220 And if someone has a drone, I want to make friends with them.
01:26:21.000 Amen.
01:26:21.360 You know?
01:26:21.780 And, you know, just because, just because their passports have the stamp of the one city, the airport in Iran,
01:26:33.280 where the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has its command post to train people to go into foreign countries and assassinate people,
01:26:47.480 just because their passport had that stamp on it several times, does not mean that that's who they are.
01:26:54.400 It's a beautiful area, Glenn.
01:26:55.480 I don't know if you've ever visited.
01:26:56.900 Oh, no.
01:26:57.260 I've got a vacation house there.
01:26:59.240 Do you really?
01:26:59.660 Yeah, overlooking the Kudz Force training area.
01:27:03.940 I know what hill you're talking about.
01:27:04.960 It's beautiful.
01:27:05.680 Yeah, it's really nice.
01:27:06.440 Yeah, it was hard to get a place there.
01:27:08.120 But I've got one of those Four Seasons timeshares that are there.
01:27:12.360 Oh, wow.
01:27:12.520 So if you ever need to use it, you're going there just to say, hey, Al Kudz, you're great.
01:27:18.560 Love you guys.
01:27:19.480 Yeah.
01:27:19.700 You can do that.
01:27:21.420 So it's open a lot.
01:27:24.120 Really?
01:27:24.460 Not a lot?
01:27:24.860 It's not utilized?
01:27:25.740 No, not.
01:27:26.280 I never have a hard time getting my timeshare there.
01:27:30.600 Well, that's good.
01:27:31.480 Because sometimes they can get booked up quickly.
01:27:33.700 And if you don't book in advance, but no problems there.
01:27:36.680 So anyway, the judge said, you can't prove any kind of foreign connection to these guys.
01:27:44.820 Yeah, you got that on the passport.
01:27:46.620 What?
01:27:47.460 So what?
01:27:48.180 What does that mean?
01:27:49.520 You know?
01:27:50.100 Timeshares.
01:27:51.260 Really?
01:27:51.940 This is what happened.
01:27:52.680 The defense attorneys argued the government was making a mountain out of a molehill.
01:28:01.940 No, I just don't think of it.
01:28:04.480 I just don't think that.
01:28:06.020 But they're out.
01:28:09.200 And I'm sure they're not going to get on the plane and go right back to Iran.
01:28:14.440 I'm sure that's not going to happen.
01:28:15.820 But, by the way, Iran, of course, has warned us that because Donald Trump killed Qassam Soleimani and nine other people, that, quote, killing the president of the United States is not enough.
01:28:34.800 So, but I wouldn't worry about these two guys.
01:28:37.340 Again, they seem friendly.
01:28:39.680 They do.
01:28:40.140 So everything should be fine.
01:28:41.480 We don't seem to be taking this all that seriously.
01:28:43.820 I feel like we should.
01:28:45.420 You think?
01:28:46.700 You think?
01:28:48.720 That if, I don't know.
01:28:50.320 You feel as if we should.
01:28:52.540 I'm willing to go out on a limb on this.
01:28:53.840 Okay.
01:28:54.260 I'll hear you out.
01:28:55.340 Okay.
01:28:55.700 Thank you.
01:28:56.240 You know what?
01:28:56.560 That's all I ask.
01:28:57.200 Yeah.
01:28:58.060 If you happen to be the president of the United States.
01:28:59.920 Uh-huh.
01:29:00.260 And your wife has secret service and those people have been infiltrated by two Iranians with all sorts of crazy military style equipment and a passport stamp at an airport frequented by the Iranian.
01:29:17.520 Al-Quds.
01:29:18.200 Al-Quds forces.
01:29:19.260 Yeah.
01:29:19.660 Uh-huh.
01:29:20.000 I believe that is something that you should consider taking seriously.
01:29:26.420 This is kind of the nonsense that you would hear if Elon Musk took over Twitter.
01:29:30.840 That may be.
01:29:31.200 Okay.
01:29:31.680 You'd hear that kind of stuff from crazy people.
01:29:35.960 California, the legislation that they're working on now will create a four-day work week for large employers.
01:29:46.440 So you'll get paid the same amount of money, but you'll only work 32 hours instead of 40.
01:29:53.260 And that will apply to any corporation with more than 500 employees.
01:30:01.180 So that's good.
01:30:02.360 That's good.
01:30:02.940 That's good.
01:30:03.660 And by the way, also, just so you know, any work above 12 hours in a day must be compensated at twice your pay rate.
01:30:13.100 Now, technically, I believe there's an attorney that could make the case that I work for Premier Radio Networks, which is iHeartRadio, and I need to do four shows in one day.
01:30:36.440 Really?
01:30:37.180 And I get twice the rate.
01:30:38.760 All right.
01:30:40.000 There you go.
01:30:40.880 We're all going for milkshakes.
01:30:42.580 This is going to work out well.
01:30:43.560 This is going to.
01:30:44.040 No, it's.
01:30:44.640 Yeah.
01:30:45.100 You know, companies are going to love this.
01:30:47.260 This makes it so easy for companies to stay afloat, you know?
01:30:51.100 Well, that's why we need programs to cover the people when they lose their jobs.
01:30:56.200 Right.
01:30:56.820 You know, when they need to stay home and they no longer can be functional members of society.
01:31:00.900 Oh, this is a there's a there's a little almost a wave of dependence that the government brings to those involved in it.
01:31:11.240 And it seems to be the thing that they encourage almost all the time.
01:31:15.040 You know, it would be nice if we were a country that was built on self-reliance instead of reliance on the government.
01:31:21.800 This is not Elon Musk.
01:31:23.140 Okay.
01:31:23.640 This is not the words are not allowed here.
01:31:26.600 They're not allowed here.
01:31:27.620 You know, what is allowed is the truth.
01:31:30.340 Cut to please.
01:31:31.240 Here's Joe Biden yesterday.
01:31:33.480 Putin's invasion of Ukraine has driven up gas prices and food prices all over the world.
01:31:40.880 Ukraine and Russia, the one in two largest wheat producers in the world, were number three.
01:31:47.680 They're shut down.
01:31:50.080 We saw that yesterday's inflation data.
01:31:52.520 What people don't know is it's 70 percent of the increase in inflation was a consequence of Putin's price hike because of the impact on oil prices.
01:32:02.740 Seventy percent.
01:32:04.280 We need we need to address these high prices and urgently.
01:32:09.860 That's fantastic.
01:32:11.260 Has anybody noticed how how much of an old get off my lawn man he is now?
01:32:19.080 Have you noticed that he seems to be angry a lot of the times and this is actually coming from some people in the White House saying that he is he gets a little out of control with his anger once in a while.
01:32:31.580 But he is he'll turn on a dime.
01:32:33.880 He looked angry.
01:32:34.900 I was just watching this clip.
01:32:36.040 He looked angry.
01:32:36.900 But I don't know if you saw that clip earlier this week.
01:32:39.840 I don't know, Stephen, if you have the the clip, the one where he was.
01:32:45.780 Oh, I can't remember what he said.
01:32:47.320 I think it was about Putin, maybe.
01:32:48.840 But he all of a sudden he was like, no, no joke.
01:32:52.480 And he started yelling at the audience.
01:32:54.700 You're like, hold, dude, man, you are really get the metal detector.
01:32:59.520 It's time for you to walk on the beach.
01:33:01.060 This is super common with people going through what it appears Joe Biden is going through.
01:33:06.880 Right.
01:33:07.140 When you start to kind of lose your marbles, marbles is what that's the scientific term.
01:33:14.860 I didn't want to get to, you know, to do deep into the science that control of your bowels.
01:33:18.860 When you lose when you lose those things.
01:33:20.400 Yes.
01:33:20.740 Those things.
01:33:21.560 The the the normal interactions you have with people start to get really frustrating.
01:33:26.880 Yeah.
01:33:27.040 You know, and when you you can't you feel like people are mocking you.
01:33:30.460 You feel like people are laughing at you.
01:33:32.140 You feel like you can't just pull up that piece of information, you know, is sitting there in your brain somewhere that this happens to older people all the time when they go through this and they get frustrated and angry and they and they lash out.
01:33:44.080 Can I tell you something?
01:33:44.920 This is I did.
01:33:45.980 You know, I don't.
01:33:49.580 I had to get hearing aids this year or this week, this last week.
01:33:54.280 So I went and got hearing aids and in the doctor said, so what what are the what's your biggest frustration?
01:34:02.640 And I said, my wife, my wife is.
01:34:06.580 Yeah.
01:34:07.360 Was that I said, take my wife, please.
01:34:09.100 I said, my wife is the biggest frustration because I cannot hear.
01:34:12.380 I've lost my upper range of frequency.
01:34:15.900 This sounds a little selective.
01:34:17.980 But you does.
01:34:19.080 I could hear everybody but my wife.
01:34:21.400 Yeah, yeah.
01:34:22.960 And so I said, I can't hear.
01:34:25.540 And I'm constantly saying, wait, say that again.
01:34:27.920 What?
01:34:28.960 And, you know.
01:34:29.760 Oh, she must love that.
01:34:30.800 Oh, she does.
01:34:32.140 Oh, yeah.
01:34:32.500 And then finally, she's like, you know, she'll be like, you're not wearing pants.
01:34:39.080 You know, and I'll be like, you don't have to yell at me.
01:34:41.780 Right, right.
01:34:42.300 You know?
01:34:42.800 Yeah, yeah.
01:34:43.440 And she said, this is the biggest problem when you start to lose your hearing is you get really frustrated.
01:34:52.120 Everybody else gets frustrated.
01:34:54.180 And it's just this weird misunderstanding kind of thing.
01:34:58.120 You're both feeling it in a different way.
01:35:00.280 And she said, so she was, she was doing some things.
01:35:06.360 And I started to feel like, because word retrieval has become a little weird for me.
01:35:11.940 And I'm like, I mean, I've never been good with words.
01:35:15.100 Words ain't my friend.
01:35:17.260 But word retrieval has become a little difficult.
01:35:20.200 And this is like really early if I'm having problems with word retrieval.
01:35:24.860 And so I went in and I did this test and you do this, you do this test where you're following things on a screen and, and it has nothing.
01:35:36.620 It seemingly has nothing to do with hearing.
01:35:39.100 And I'm like, okay, that was a fun test.
01:35:42.560 I'm here for my ears.
01:35:45.060 What?
01:35:45.900 I said, I'm here for my ears.
01:35:50.100 You're not wearing pants.
01:35:52.280 So anyway, she comes in and she said, your, what was it?
01:35:59.520 Your cognitive or, yeah, your cognitive is slowing down.
01:36:03.700 And I said, right.
01:36:05.820 Okay.
01:36:06.020 I didn't think I would hear that from the ear specialist, but yes.
01:36:09.900 Right.
01:36:10.460 What's happening.
01:36:11.460 And she said, that's normal.
01:36:13.240 She said, you don't hear with your ears.
01:36:16.440 You hear with your brain.
01:36:18.620 So your, your ears pick up sound and that sound wave has been connected to a word and a meaning.
01:36:28.320 And so the sound comes in and your word and your brain usually doesn't, if it can hear clearly, doesn't have to work very hard to put the word in place.
01:36:36.840 Okay.
01:36:37.520 But if you can't hear it, it then has to go through all of the words that that might sound like, and then put it into the sentence.
01:36:46.100 More processing time, essentially.
01:36:48.020 So you're overloading because, you know, there'd be sentences where I'm like, the chicken is wearing shoes.
01:36:56.360 What did you just say?
01:36:58.220 And, and that's what I'll really hear.
01:37:01.620 Okay.
01:37:02.060 And so it slows things, it slows things down and it's weird and frustrating.
01:37:08.880 And, you know, I'm not 90 or 80 where he's going to be 80.
01:37:16.380 This guy, you look at him now, he's not there.
01:37:19.500 We just did this special on Wednesday and, you know, there, it's just, he's checked out.
01:37:28.860 He's checked out.
01:37:30.140 Look at him five years ago, giving a speech.
01:37:33.200 You could see it in his eyes.
01:37:35.800 There's nothing there behind the eyes.
01:37:38.320 Rarely is there something there behind the eyes with him.
01:37:41.120 You're like, I don't think he's, hello.
01:37:44.580 Is anybody in there?
01:37:45.880 I'm not sure that there is.
01:37:48.740 Yesterday, there was this viral video that was going around of him at the end of a speech.
01:37:53.480 Do we happen to have this where he was shaking hands with Niblet?
01:37:57.200 Niblet.
01:37:57.900 Niblet.
01:37:58.380 God bless you.
01:37:59.000 Okay, now look, he turns and he looks like he's shaking hands with Niblet, the invisible Himalayan Sherpa.
01:38:07.800 What the heck?
01:38:11.500 Okay, then he just stands and looks and walks off.
01:38:16.940 Okay, looks like a meandering guy.
01:38:18.700 However, if you look at, we checked the camera angles.
01:38:22.620 If you look at all the camera angles, it doesn't look as bad from all angles.
01:38:27.020 It might have been just that angle.
01:38:28.480 It doesn't look like he was so befuddled with other angles.
01:38:33.060 And I think it's important that we dismiss the things that are not, for instance, he's always said crazy things.
01:38:42.700 He's always said crazy things.
01:38:44.900 But the things that he says occasionally now are much different than the crazy things he used to say.
01:38:52.120 And much more dangerous.
01:38:53.120 And much more dangerous.
01:38:54.540 Yeah, you know, there is.
01:38:55.660 I think, honestly, I'm glad you said that about looking at the other camera angles.
01:38:59.760 Because, look, it's easy for us to find.
01:39:01.980 You can always find stuff that makes Joe Biden look bad.
01:39:04.060 I mean, he does it time after time after time.
01:39:06.060 But I think it really is important for the American people to monitor the line here between where Joe Biden is, which is really bad, in my opinion.
01:39:14.220 And where it appears, unfortunately, Dianne Feinstein is, which is unable to seemingly do her job in any way.
01:39:23.180 That now Democrats are saying that come out to the San Francisco Chronicle and said, hey, we've had meetings with her.
01:39:30.460 She's introducing herself multiple times to us in the conversation.
01:39:34.820 She's not recognizing people who have worked on their staff.
01:39:37.340 There's a joke on Capitol Hill that there is, what was it?
01:39:44.680 It was like there is a great senior senator or a great junior senator from California and a great experienced staff from the senior senator's office.
01:39:58.280 Yeah.
01:39:58.500 In other words, she can't.
01:39:59.820 She can't function at all.
01:40:00.940 And what's amazing is nobody has a problem throwing her under the bus.
01:40:05.660 She's become a liability for the hard, hard left, I think.
01:40:10.720 She's not woke enough for them and they want somebody else.
01:40:14.720 So they're throwing her under the bus, but they won't say a word about Joe Biden.
01:40:19.240 And you can't.
01:40:20.700 And, of course, it's the opposite.
01:40:22.020 As far as importance goes, the opposite is the way to go.
01:40:25.140 I mean, Joe Biden, one senator being out of it is really bad.
01:40:29.180 And I feel bad mainly for her.
01:40:31.020 Yeah.
01:40:31.400 But, like, our country can continue to survive that.
01:40:35.440 Having the president out there calling in an answer on gas prices, accusing a country of genocide that has 6,000 nuclear weapons, right or wrong?
01:40:44.720 Right.
01:40:45.000 It should not be how it happened.
01:40:46.240 But I want to go back to that for a second.
01:40:48.320 Let me take a quick break and come back because the 25th Amendment everybody's talking about.
01:40:52.180 And we learned something this week on the show, on the TV show, that is really important to understand.
01:40:57.120 First, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins.
01:40:59.540 Tuttle Twins have a new book out.
01:41:01.600 It is called The Tuttle Twins and the Creature from Jekyll Island.
01:41:06.140 It is all about the Fed.
01:41:09.040 It's how inflation works.
01:41:10.740 And it has been written so your kids can understand it.
01:41:14.260 And quite honestly, if you've not read The Creature from Jekyll Island, which is, I don't know, a big, thick, scholarly book,
01:41:21.000 if you haven't read that, you're going to learn a lot of stuff about the Fed.
01:41:26.900 Most people don't really understand how the Fed works.
01:41:30.720 And as we are seeing, because, you know, some people are buying in that Putin has caused this inflation,
01:41:35.420 as you're seeing, most people don't know how inflation even works.
01:41:40.380 The clock is ticking for our economy.
01:41:43.260 And I've asked the Tuttle Twins people, can you make this book available for free?
01:41:46.660 Because I think it is imperative for every family to read this book.
01:41:50.400 Tuttle Twins.
01:41:51.240 The books are excellent.
01:41:52.320 This one is so crucial to read.
01:41:54.120 So you can prepare.
01:41:56.440 TuttleTwinsBeck.com.
01:41:57.600 You can get this one free while supplies last.
01:42:00.440 The Tuttle Twins and the Creature from Jekyll Island.
01:42:03.620 That's TuttleTwinsBeck.com.
01:42:06.300 10 Second Station ID.
01:42:07.280 So here's the interesting thing about the 25th Amendment.
01:42:22.120 People say, we ought to evoke the 25th Amendment.
01:42:24.620 That's what Nancy Pelosi tried to do with changing the law to allow Congress to do it.
01:42:32.520 But that Congress just changing a law does not change the Constitution.
01:42:36.260 The Constitution was written in such a way, this particular law, that it can only be his side that pulls people out.
01:42:46.560 So in other words, an opposing party that, like with Donald Trump, can't say, oh my gosh, he's crazy.
01:42:53.900 We got to get him out and then invoke the 25th Amendment.
01:42:56.980 It has to be the vice president.
01:43:00.020 And what is it?
01:43:01.220 A third?
01:43:02.060 I thought it was half the cabinet, but it's something like that.
01:43:05.360 So it has to be those guys that do it.
01:43:08.800 The people that are in his administration that actually do something like that.
01:43:14.000 It cannot be done any other way.
01:43:15.880 Well, there is another carve out for a commission of sorts that Congress can name, right?
01:43:22.040 That's what the direction she was trying to go in.
01:43:25.080 I don't think that's in the 25th Amendment, is it?
01:43:28.260 Yeah, there's two ways to go about it.
01:43:31.660 Because we were just talking about this because I was interested.
01:43:34.120 This is 18 months ago they proposed this.
01:43:36.020 I know.
01:43:36.500 18 months ago they proposed this as a change.
01:43:39.020 And this is one of the things we talk about all the time.
01:43:41.080 You can not like the person at the top or you look and like the person at the top.
01:43:45.300 Giving them the power, it means that the next person that you probably don't like gets it as well.
01:43:49.160 And here they wanted to give this commission power to throw the president out based on supposed ideas of mental stability.
01:43:59.140 Would they have that now?
01:44:00.280 Because they certainly wouldn't vote for that now.
01:44:02.200 The Democrats wouldn't vote for that bill now.
01:44:03.920 Of course not.
01:44:04.560 Because they know what would happen.
01:44:06.100 Republicans would come in and use it.
01:44:07.640 And we should not push for it.
01:44:09.720 It's a very, very bad thing.
01:44:11.240 The 25th Amendment was written because they thought there was a chance that John Kennedy would survive with brain damage and there was no way to get him out of office.
01:44:21.580 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:44:23.800 Do you spend your nights tossing and turning unable to get comfortable enough to fall asleep?
01:44:29.220 Sometimes you sit straight up, turn on the light and go, okay, all right.
01:44:34.020 I've done that.
01:44:35.120 Used to be the same way.
01:44:36.420 My sleep was terrible for a long time.
01:44:39.780 The whole next day, I'd be dragging my butt around.
01:44:42.640 Then I found my pillow products.
01:44:44.820 My pillow products have really helped me sleep.
01:44:46.960 The pillow, I don't wake up ever.
01:44:49.360 Really.
01:44:49.920 The only time I do is when, because I've become that person that travels with a pillow.
01:44:54.520 When I don't have my pillow, you know, my pillow, my pillow.
01:44:59.700 If I don't have that, I wake up and my neck is all screwed up.
01:45:03.680 My pillow is fantastic.

01:45:42.660 Friends, I want you to put your hands now on the radio.
01:45:55.060 I want you to feel, feel the power of the spoken word as it comes to life.
01:46:05.900 To tell you all about a miracle that has happened.
01:46:09.340 Stu, may I ask, do you believe in miracles?
01:46:14.260 I do.
01:46:15.220 Yes, amen.
01:46:16.200 This is Good Friday.
01:46:18.340 This is when the Lord was crucified.
01:46:21.780 This is also Passover when the spirit passed over the houses of the Israelites and killed
01:46:31.640 the firstborn in Egypt or someplace.
01:46:36.120 Hallelujah.
01:46:36.780 Yeah.
01:46:37.240 So I have another miracle.
01:46:40.980 On the weekend that the Lord rose from the dead, a modern day miracle.
01:46:49.000 Two women at the New Jersey's only women's prison have both fallen pregnant.
01:47:05.160 Wow.
01:47:06.100 Yeah.
01:47:06.660 Immaculate.
01:47:07.740 It is immaculate.
01:47:08.900 That's what I would say.
01:47:09.540 Now, they did have sex with other women, but it's still an immaculate, amazing thing.
01:47:24.000 How could that happen scientifically?
01:47:26.380 Don't know.
01:47:26.700 I guess there's no explanation.
01:47:28.200 There is no explanation.
01:47:32.140 None.
01:47:32.440 So these women-
01:47:33.820 I even thought, because this is a prison, they're in Clinton, New Jersey.
01:47:41.800 I even thought that.
01:47:42.780 I thought maybe that's part of the miracle.
01:47:44.680 Maybe he was visiting.
01:47:44.700 Right, yeah.
01:47:45.280 You know, but no, it's not.
01:47:47.560 It's not.
01:47:48.080 That's incredible.
01:47:48.940 Well, you know, you just don't think things like this can be possible.
01:47:52.140 You think of these miracles as old-timey things from the Bible, but no.
01:47:56.300 Yeah.
01:47:56.740 Look at this right here.
01:47:58.020 Yeah.
01:47:58.200 They don't know what they're going to do with the children yet.
01:48:00.520 Hopefully, they carry them to full term.
01:48:02.740 It would be great to have-
01:48:04.060 Because one would be surprising.
01:48:05.580 Yeah, but two.
01:48:06.320 In an all-women's prison.
01:48:07.380 That's two.
01:48:07.860 One would be surprising, but maybe there's a-
01:48:10.480 I don't know.
01:48:10.840 It's a guard.
01:48:11.860 No.
01:48:12.280 Someone who visited and shouldn't have-
01:48:15.980 Now, listen.
01:48:16.980 This is the place.
01:48:18.300 It's very progressive, okay?
01:48:20.360 Okay.
01:48:20.780 They do have 27 transgendered prisoners there.
01:48:25.960 And both of these-
01:48:27.840 And both of these transgendered, or these non-transgendered women, they did have sex with one or two of the transgender women.
01:48:41.660 But those are just women.
01:48:42.840 Those are just women.
01:48:43.560 Those are just women.
01:48:44.120 First of all, they're women.
01:48:45.060 Yeah, and they were-
01:48:45.960 I don't know if they were menstruating at the time.
01:48:48.440 I don't know.
01:48:49.060 I don't know what happened.
01:48:50.460 We don't know if they were men what?
01:48:52.720 If the men, I mean, sorry, the transgendered women were menstruating.
01:48:57.340 So-
01:48:58.340 And why didn't they get pregnant?
01:48:59.620 What you're saying is that a woman, a biological woman-
01:49:03.240 Yes.
01:49:03.620 Was in prison.
01:49:04.400 Mm-hmm.
01:49:05.200 And seemingly had sex with a biological man.
01:49:10.780 And the result of that was a pregnancy.
01:49:13.420 No.
01:49:13.440 You don't understand this.
01:49:14.260 Immaculate.
01:49:14.560 You know what you need?
01:49:15.320 You need a good priest.
01:49:16.580 You need a good priest.
01:49:17.320 Have you seen Father Stu yet?
01:49:19.060 No.
01:49:19.640 It's got your name in it.
01:49:20.820 Yeah.
01:49:21.220 Everyone keeps telling me that.
01:49:22.440 Yeah, Father Stu.
01:49:23.320 It looks good.
01:49:24.140 It's not actually my name, but that's a whole different story.
01:49:25.580 But it's getting bad reviews, is it not?
01:49:27.520 Yeah, it is actually.
01:49:28.660 It's something like 45%.
01:49:30.240 Is that from the critics or the audience?
01:49:32.360 Critics, 45% on Rotten Tomatoes.
01:49:34.220 The audience seems to love it.
01:49:35.780 It's like 94% with the audience.
01:49:37.960 What's the deal with the critics, you think?
01:49:40.060 I don't know.
01:49:40.820 Is it Mel Gibson?
01:49:42.000 It is a Mel Gibson.
01:49:43.500 Yeah, is that why the critics, because they just can't forgive him for anything?
01:49:46.160 Yeah, I mean, I think that's probably it.
01:49:47.100 It's hard.
01:49:47.780 Actually, 45% for a Mel Gibson movie from critics in 2022 might actually be his top of the line.
01:49:54.120 Yeah, well, it might also be because, you know, of all the swearing in it.
01:49:57.740 I mean, rated R.
01:49:58.800 It's a rated R movie, yeah.
01:50:00.280 And I don't know why he would do that.
01:50:03.900 Well, yeah, I do.
01:50:05.700 I mean, you know, probably was written by Jews.
01:50:10.200 I don't think, I don't think that's, did Mel Gibson provide you with that joke?
01:50:17.320 Yeah, he did.
01:50:19.120 No, he didn't.
01:50:20.460 It's not like we're going to do that.
01:50:22.740 You know, we're going to be doing an interview with Mel Gibson anytime soon.
01:50:25.640 That's true.
01:50:26.140 Has no consequence whatsoever, just for fun.
01:50:29.980 All right.
01:50:30.700 Jerry wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.
01:50:33.640 She said, I listened to Glenn Beck rave about this product for years before I started to try it.
01:50:39.620 But trial bag was more than enough to see the results I needed to continue purchasing more.
01:50:44.200 My 12-year-old dog is playing and running again.
01:50:46.900 I could tell the difference after the second feeding.
01:50:49.640 Wow.
01:50:50.260 It's magical nutritional stuff.
01:50:52.980 No buyer's remorse here.
01:50:54.820 Rough Greens, not a dog food.
01:50:56.400 It is something you put on the dog's food.
01:50:58.420 Probiotics, antioxidants, everything you need.
01:51:00.440 You can get that first free bag.
01:51:02.760 All you pay for is shipping by going to roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:51:06.460 That's roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:51:09.080 When we come back, my Easter message next.

01:51:20.440 Today, we're going on a journey.
01:51:37.840 They say that time itself does not exist as we know it.
01:51:42.620 As we understand it.
01:51:44.140 It only really exists as something called space-time.
01:51:51.320 It's really only a point on a giant map.
01:51:55.840 Something that we can use to find out where we are, where we've been, or where we're going.
01:52:03.900 So let's unfold space-time and trace our way back.
01:52:08.620 First, maybe just a couple of years.
01:52:14.980 Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world.
01:52:18.520 The United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden, leader of al-Qaeda.
01:52:22.540 On my orders, the United States military has begun strike.
01:52:25.400 Yes, the al-Qaeda terrorist training council.
01:52:27.120 The people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.
01:52:32.420 Now back, even further.
01:52:34.320 Princess Diana died around the world.
01:52:36.240 I did not have this vast right-wing conspiracy.
01:52:40.380 Now, he is O.J. Simpson.
01:52:42.140 He is armed with a gun.
01:52:43.260 Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this man.
01:52:46.580 Elvis Presley died today.
01:52:48.540 Well, I'm not a crook.
01:52:49.880 I've earned everything I've got.
01:52:52.560 Because of what has happened in Munich during the past four years,
01:52:55.080 eight or nine terrified living human beings are being held prisoner.
01:53:00.000 A second shot, the third total shot, hit the president's head.
01:53:03.620 Ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles.
01:53:05.260 Dr. Martin Luther King has been shot to death in Memphis.
01:53:09.080 A short time ago, an American airplane dropped one bomb on Hiroshima.
01:53:14.580 Allied naval forces, supported by strong air forces,
01:53:20.200 began landing Allied armies this morning on the northern coast of France.
01:53:25.840 December 7th, 1941, a date which will live in infamy.
01:53:34.800 Oh, the humanity.
01:53:37.800 Back farther still, even before Marconi, when the air was silent.
01:53:43.900 Back past the signing of the Declaration of Independence, past the Age of Enlightenment,
01:53:54.260 before Martin Luther hung his protest on the church doors,
01:53:57.920 before Columbus rediscovered the fact that the world was round.
01:54:02.120 We go past Newton, Galileo, the Dark Ages, the Crusades,
01:54:06.500 back to a time before books,
01:54:09.380 when most of the world couldn't read nor write,
01:54:12.680 and history was oral.
01:54:15.900 We leave this world now,
01:54:18.100 where we can hear and see a lone protester standing in front of a tank
01:54:22.320 in a country on the other side of the planet,
01:54:25.020 and we can see it live.
01:54:26.700 To a world seemingly simple,
01:54:29.940 yet brutal beyond our understanding,
01:54:32.820 where news was spread from mouth to mouth.
01:54:35.320 We stop here,
01:54:37.900 at approximately 29 of the Common Era.
01:54:43.640 We stop at a small walled city in the Middle East.
01:54:47.800 It's around 10 o'clock at night,
01:54:50.100 just a couple of days before Passover.
01:54:53.520 The meals are being prepared,
01:54:55.580 the night's meal had already been eaten,
01:54:58.000 and most in the city are asleep.
01:55:01.480 One man, however, is not.
01:55:04.280 It's strange.
01:55:06.860 He's younger than I am.
01:55:09.240 He's about 30.
01:55:11.260 He's awake and alone in a garden.
01:55:15.060 His friends, who have been with him for several years,
01:55:17.680 are just a few yards away.
01:55:19.720 They slumber underneath the star-filled sky.
01:55:22.480 They still don't know that even though they sleep,
01:55:27.140 the world is about to wake.
01:55:29.500 Eleven of twelve men sleep beside a hill.
01:55:35.960 One man awake.
01:55:38.760 He couldn't sleep,
01:55:40.960 for he knew.
01:55:43.720 He was in a garden,
01:55:45.580 in prayer,
01:55:47.220 praying so hard about what he knew was about to come,
01:55:50.920 praying so hard that blood actually dripped from his pores
01:55:54.080 in a place of sweat.
01:55:56.660 Back at the hill,
01:55:58.080 when he returned,
01:55:59.460 he begged his friends to wake and pray with him.
01:56:04.000 They didn't know how serious his request really was.
01:56:07.780 They had no idea what was just to come.
01:56:12.380 He pleaded with his friends,
01:56:14.480 Why will you not rise and pray with me?
01:56:17.840 He asked this again before returning to the garden alone.
01:56:21.900 He knelt there on rocky soil,
01:56:24.580 his hands clasped,
01:56:26.420 his head bowed.
01:56:28.100 Twilight dew draped his neck,
01:56:30.620 the horizon still in black.
01:56:32.740 He prayed.
01:56:35.080 He prayed even harder,
01:56:36.680 for the sky would eventually turn purple,
01:56:39.460 then light blue.
01:56:41.160 And he knew what awaited him.
01:56:44.640 Back to the hill once more,
01:56:47.060 his friends asleep.
01:56:48.820 He begged his friends,
01:56:50.400 Rise, rise and pray with me.
01:56:53.220 I need you now more than ever.
01:56:55.820 They said they would.
01:56:57.500 But shortly after he left,
01:56:59.480 they fell asleep again.
01:57:00.840 The dawn was even closer,
01:57:04.220 and he knew his time was running out.
01:57:09.200 Now over the hill,
01:57:11.120 they marched like flowing lava
01:57:13.460 burning in the night's solace.
01:57:15.880 The eleven are surely awake now.
01:57:19.060 They have sworn their faith to him.
01:57:21.320 But he knows.
01:57:22.780 He knew this wasn't true.
01:57:25.520 They'll weaken,
01:57:26.620 and he'll be forsaken.
01:57:28.700 Forsaken by the same men
01:57:30.400 who just swore their undying devotion.
01:57:33.560 The torchlights grow brighter,
01:57:35.600 the hourglass running low,
01:57:37.780 the clanging of the metal swords and spears,
01:57:40.680 the sound and the vibration of the march
01:57:42.760 deep down from their feet to their spine,
01:57:45.480 creating a shallow vibration,
01:57:47.900 leaving them quivering.
01:57:49.920 The soldiers approach.
01:57:51.380 The one is grabbed and kissed.
01:57:57.940 Betrayed with a kiss.
01:58:00.440 A kiss wearing the mask of loyalty.
01:58:04.700 One of the men leap forward,
01:58:06.860 draws his sword,
01:58:07.980 cutting the ear off one of the soldiers.
01:58:10.300 He raises his hand.
01:58:12.260 No.
01:58:13.760 Peace.
01:58:14.300 Take me now in peace.
01:58:17.460 For this is my purpose.
01:58:20.660 This is my being.
01:58:23.080 This is the reason I came.
01:58:27.640 Now, one of them,
01:58:29.800 Peter, strays.
01:58:32.320 While his friend is being persecuted
01:58:34.280 for crimes he didn't commit,
01:58:36.940 he stands by a fire,
01:58:38.880 denying any relationship he has
01:58:41.000 as he tries to blend in
01:58:42.700 with the common people.
01:58:44.580 A woman approaches.
01:58:46.480 Didn't I see you with him?
01:58:48.760 Peter says,
01:58:49.660 Surely I don't know him,
01:58:51.220 but you're from Galilee.
01:58:52.780 For the third time,
01:58:54.000 Peter says,
01:58:54.920 I do not know this man.
01:58:57.400 Now,
01:58:58.020 Jesus is pulled back and forth
01:58:59.700 between the two
01:59:00.700 who will determine his fate.
01:59:02.980 They can't see any crime,
01:59:05.600 but they still question,
01:59:08.060 scourge,
01:59:08.800 and mock him.
01:59:11.000 Aren't you the king?
01:59:14.180 Silence.
01:59:15.640 Then here is your crown,
01:59:17.880 says one as they give him
01:59:19.420 a crown of thorns
01:59:20.620 and press it into his head.
01:59:23.400 He stands before the judge,
01:59:25.800 who could condemn him
01:59:26.880 for no crime,
01:59:28.300 but it is Passover.
01:59:30.840 He says to the crowd,
01:59:32.500 You,
01:59:33.200 you can choose.
01:59:34.900 One I will release.
01:59:37.320 Him as the king of the Jews,
01:59:39.800 or
01:59:40.260 Jesus standing silent,
01:59:43.760 his eyes to the ground.
01:59:46.080 He is condemned to death.
01:59:49.560 Jesus now carries his cross
01:59:51.560 through the stone-clad streets
01:59:53.360 to the place
01:59:54.120 known as
01:59:55.380 the Skull.
01:59:57.020 The place
01:59:57.800 where he will soon die.
02:00:00.640 His back torn,
02:00:02.160 his head bleeding
02:00:03.100 beneath his thorny crown.
02:00:05.380 The women cry out loud
02:00:06.800 as he passes.
02:00:07.640 He pauses for a moment
02:00:09.980 and comforts them.
02:00:12.540 Do not weep for me.
02:00:14.980 Rather,
02:00:15.940 weep for yourselves.
02:00:18.980 His mother looks on
02:00:21.180 as huge nails
02:00:22.280 are driven through
02:00:23.220 his hands and his feet.
02:00:24.940 They raise the cross
02:00:26.420 and slam it into the ground.
02:00:28.040 It is at this point
02:00:30.520 that all four writers
02:00:31.940 of the gospel
02:00:32.800 struggled
02:00:33.440 with a description
02:00:34.640 of the crucifixion
02:00:35.820 as I have.
02:00:39.140 They described
02:00:40.280 with the only words
02:00:41.420 that I could use.
02:00:44.540 And
02:00:45.180 they crucified him.
02:00:47.560 He now hung on the cross
02:00:51.100 as the soldiers
02:00:52.700 bid lots
02:00:53.540 on his clothing below.
02:00:55.840 Next to him,
02:00:57.120 two criminals hang.
02:00:59.380 But they are simply
02:01:00.480 tied to the cross.
02:01:02.580 One of them says,
02:01:04.140 You're the son of God.
02:01:05.660 Save us now.
02:01:06.820 Save all of us.
02:01:07.820 The man in the middle
02:01:09.800 does nothing
02:01:11.120 for he
02:01:12.940 had a purpose.
02:01:15.700 The afternoon passes.
02:01:18.540 His skin stretched.
02:01:20.620 He wept.
02:01:21.900 He begged for water
02:01:23.080 and they gave him
02:01:23.960 a sponge on a reed
02:01:25.300 filled with vinegar.
02:01:27.800 In a moment
02:01:28.420 where he showed us
02:01:30.100 that he was
02:01:30.800 truly human,
02:01:32.660 he cried out
02:01:33.720 and said,
02:01:35.180 My father.
02:01:35.940 My father,
02:01:38.020 why have you
02:01:38.720 forsaken me?
02:01:41.720 The sky began
02:01:43.020 to grow dark.
02:01:44.900 It was approaching
02:01:45.740 three o'clock
02:01:47.080 on a Friday afternoon
02:01:49.360 when Jesus,
02:01:52.400 the carpenter
02:01:53.120 from Nazareth,
02:01:54.980 spoke once more
02:01:56.120 and only once.
02:01:59.480 His last words,
02:02:02.440 It
02:02:02.800 is finished.
02:02:05.940 So today,
02:02:09.100 people all over
02:02:10.480 the world
02:02:11.040 do
02:02:12.260 as I do now.
02:02:15.340 I thank
02:02:16.560 that lone carpenter
02:02:17.800 for dying.
02:02:20.840 Dying
02:02:21.620 on that Friday afternoon
02:02:23.320 so I
02:02:25.280 may live.
02:02:27.140 inaudible
02:02:29.540 forward to
02:02:33.140 answering
02:02:33.640 on that Friday
02:02:34.240 face
02:02:35.580 to
02:02:38.280 as
02:02:38.300 the
02:02:38.460 the
02:02:39.540 the
02:02:39.900 the
02:02:40.200 he
02:02:40.460 is
02:02:41.080 af
02:02:44.460 as
02:02:45.040 the
02:02:45.400 m
02:02:45.680 the
02:02:45.900 and
02:02:45.920 the
02:02:46.200 the
02:02:48.420 lady
02:02:48.740 James
