Summary
Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly are joined by a very special guest to discuss all things Good Friday, including Sarah Palin's pet cat, a woman who just killed her dog, and why God is not real.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
We're going to start with Bill O'Reilly here in just a second.
00:00:10.100
Some of them just feed their dogs rough greens.
00:00:33.860
She's using your tricks against you, that's why.
1.00
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.
00:00:47.320
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.
00:00:54.940
Get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out right now.
00:00:58.540
You can call rough greens at roughgreens.com slash back or 833 Glenn 33.
00:01:39.660
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:13.080
We are going to, we have just such a packed show today.
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.
00:02:41.380
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.
00:02:51.460
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
00:03:07.720
It has four different ingredients that attack inflammation where ibuprofen 800.
00:03:17.420
It will decrease inflation in some people, but that attacks it from one direction.
00:03:24.780
Pain is generally caused by inflammation, and that's the biggest problem with our bodies
00:03:32.660
Even cancer kind of stems back from inflammation.
00:03:49.080
Yes, and like the Nazarene, I am misunderstood.
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
00:04:10.700
Putin did everything, inflation, the border, it's Putin, he did it all, and Jesus itself.
0.53
00:04:20.180
Interestingly enough, on the No Spend News last night, Beck, for the first time in 25 years,
00:04:33.980
I have never done that in any forum, anywhere, anytime.
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
00:05:17.900
And that was different from Europe, and that's why all the people from Europe came here.
0.98
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.
00:05:39.740
So I wanted to see if you were interested in me just posing a few questions to you on this
00:05:48.720
Number one, did you know that Jesus was not a carpenter?
00:06:07.520
Well, he was taught in school, and so were most people, that Jesus was a carpenter.
00:06:23.860
And his father, Joseph, did that, and then Jesus did it from about age 16 to 30.
00:06:34.780
And then, because of John the Baptist, a real person, Jesus decided to become a preacher.
00:06:45.900
Did you know that being the Messiah back then in Judea was a job, an industry?
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.
00:07:03.620
They were down in the deserts and all, and it was...
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,
00:07:21.420
They were looking for somebody who was going to put together an army.
00:07:26.180
They were oppressed, and they were looking for a savior.
00:07:30.100
But none of these guys got any traction except for John the Baptist.
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.
00:07:46.980
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?
00:08:07.960
If John the Baptist were alive today, he would have voted for Biden and read the New York Times.
00:08:32.520
The reason that I was able to accumulate all of this information was, and this really, really rankles the atheists,
0.85
00:08:44.040
was because there were two written threads of what Jesus was doing.
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.
00:09:11.480
And the thing was that you couldn't hear Jesus, Beck.
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.
00:09:38.260
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?
00:10:26.780
The only logical explanation, and we are logical people here, is the works.
00:10:37.600
Now, we do not have the miracles in killing Jesus.
00:10:45.480
But the spies from the Sanhedrin reported back that Jesus was curing people.
00:11:02.440
I know you can find Jesus in Josephus, in his writings.
00:11:10.520
The Israeli government granted me and Martin Dugard, my co-author, access.
00:11:19.240
He saw the records that Josephus basically reported on.
00:11:28.840
Once these crowds got big, the Romans sent spies as well.
00:11:37.040
And everywhere Jesus went, there were two sets of spies.
00:11:47.060
Because Pilate, the governor of Judea, was worried there was going to be an insurrection.
00:11:57.680
And those records, again, cited the big crowds, were excited by 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.
0.85
00:12:29.600
Now, it would be impossible for a stonecutter from a small town, Nazareth, that had nothing.
00:12:44.500
To become the most famous person who has ever lived.
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.
1.00
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.
00:14:12.680
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.
00:14:35.100
And once the temple authorities and Pilate saw that, they said, he's got to go, for different reasons.
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.
00:14:55.600
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.
00:15:11.620
It is the best Jesus movie story I've ever seen.
00:15:23.260
But, you know, it looks at all of those things.
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.
0.78
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.
00:15:59.140
So, you'll hear it on your programs and on my programs, because we're people who believe.
00:16:07.380
But you know this, because you've been in the media, what, 85 years now?
00:16:14.360
Everybody knew when I worked at ABC and CBS and then later Fox News that I went to church.
00:16:25.480
Now, I wasn't running around going, oh, I'm a holy guy.
00:16:30.280
But they knew that I had this fundamental belief, and they, that was, like, weird.
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.
00:16:56.880
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.
00:17:27.300
If you own your own home, how much are you paying for your credit cards?
00:17:33.140
Your credit cards are probably about 19% interest right now.
00:17:43.880
That is in the territory of not being able to pay it back because it's compounded every single month.
00:17:55.620
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%.
00:18:20.740
It's American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, AmericanFinancing.net.
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.
00:19:02.700
People are starting to believe this is Putin's fault.
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.
00:19:48.560
You should wear a two-toned hat and go in and do somersaults.
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.
00:20:09.640
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.
00:20:38.260
The fentanyl problem in Texas is just outrageous.
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.
00:21:11.280
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.
00:21:28.080
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.
0.99
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?
00:22:18.760
It depends how insane Putin is, and really nobody knows that at this point.
00:22:28.060
But what good does it do for the CIA chief to say that?
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.
00:22:51.440
We're going to talk about the craziness with Elon Musk coming up in just a second.
00:22:59.320
If you are somebody that knows about the Fed, you know that that is a classic book about the organization
00:23:06.080
and how the Fed came together on Jekyll Island, the Tuttle Twins have a book based on that
00:23:14.220
called The Creature from Jekyll Island, and this is made, you know, kind of almost in a cartoon form
00:23:21.980
This is one of the most important books you can read today with your family,
00:23:25.720
and I asked the Tuttle Twins people, could you make this one free?
00:23:28.880
This is one in a series, but just get this one for free.
00:23:36.140
It explains inflation, how our money works, why the Fed is so freaking evil.
00:23:50.820
Tuttle Twins and The Creature from Jekyll Island.
00:23:54.260
While supplies last, just pay for the shipping.
00:24:07.720
The promo code is Glenn to save $10 off your subscription to BlazeTV.
00:24:11.260
Boy, I tell you, the left is exposing themselves unlike I would ever have thought possible.
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.
00:24:48.560
The media goes crazy about some billionaire that just wants to change the world.
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.
00:25:48.020
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.
00:26:08.080
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.
00:26:38.160
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?
00:27:11.420
So it's really a wonderful thing when spaces that they said, this is our house.
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.
00:27:38.380
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.
00:27:51.120
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.
00:28:11.360
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.
00:28:21.980
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.
00:28:32.540
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.
00:28:53.560
We also saw it a couple of months ago when overnight Joe Rogan went from a nasty purveyor of misinformation to a racist.
00:29:03.360
And they tried to destroy him that way and it didn't work.
00:29:07.420
They tried to get rid of Joe and they had nothing to show for it.
00:29:16.400
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.
00:29:27.140
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.
00:29:53.580
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.
00:30:27.500
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.
00:30:52.000
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.
00:31:02.560
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.
00:31:22.380
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.
00:31:37.360
This is a manhunt for someone who shot up a subway station and thankfully no one got killed.
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.
00:31:54.960
It was just bigoted against blacks and especially black women.
1.00
00:31:58.360
So no mention of all the black nationalist supremacist type of stuff he had all over the place.
00:32:06.980
So, I mean, if you're reading that, you're thinking for sure this is some white supremacist
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
00:32:25.900
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
00:32:38.520
And we sat down and I just put a chalkboard together and I said, do you know this story?
00:32:56.480
If you're, if you read the New York times and watch CNN, you are the least informed human
00:33:02.300
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
00:33:22.940
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.
00:33:41.360
I don't know, going woke and looking for white extremists.
00:33:49.640
Let's look for people that are threatening to kill people online, threatening to kill people
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.
00:34:40.420
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.
00:34:48.780
It is a miracle that this guy goes in and shoots, what, 35 times?
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.
00:35:56.540
Some people like to go home at night and, you know, do some Netflix and chill.
00:36:06.460
And go to sleep and not toss and turn for an hour before you sleep.
00:36:11.340
Right now, you can have the best sleep kit of all time.
00:36:20.640
You take this pillow and you punch it through with your fist on each side, and it fluffs, and it, it's, I don't know how, but it remains fluffy forever.
00:36:34.380
Or is it just a dog's name of a really rich lady who carries the dog in her purse?
00:36:43.200
These things are the softest ever, and right now, they're coming in as low as $39.99.
00:37:04.400
Or you can just go to the website, mypillow.com.
00:37:07.480
Make sure you enter the promo code BECK for the savings.
00:37:31.300
I am just, I have to tell you, Elon Musk is the billionaire we would all want to be.
00:37:44.400
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.
00:38:03.660
But the idea that he's just like, yeah, we're going to Mars.
00:38:12.260
And, you know, yesterday, Vanguard disclosed that it owns now 82.4 million shares of Twitter
00:38:21.180
So, he's no longer the main, the biggest shareholder.
00:38:29.180
Remember, the 9% number is from a disclosure that's old.
00:38:36.580
So, he made the offer to buy Twitter outright yesterday, saying that it needed to be transformed
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.
00:39:20.560
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,
00:39:40.800
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
00:40:19.960
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.
00:40:28.780
This is not about anything other than controlling the narrative.
00:40:34.640
And, you know, Twitter has outsized impact on our politics for, you know, as we've mentioned
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.
00:40:51.860
These other social media companies are much bigger and are much more widely used.
00:40:59.560
One of the people remaining anonymous said yesterday, this is the thing that journalists
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.
00:41:27.000
So every day I get up, you know, I run eight miles.
00:41:31.600
Actually, I run 10 miles, but I don't count the first two because I'm running with a jump
00:41:36.880
So anyway, then I lift weights for about an hour and a half.
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
00:42:02.720
You can find it on Amazon or you can save 20% on sweat block with the promo code Beck.
00:42:08.140
By the way, if you really have a problem, these are wipes that you put under each arm
00:42:16.360
You go to bed, you get up, take a shower, and you don't have to put any antiperspirant
00:43:17.100
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:34.000
It is Good Friday, beginning of Passover and Easter weekend.
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.
00:44:19.960
So if you're gonna put forth the effort to take care of your skin and look younger, you
0.86
00:44:33.220
Well, that's exactly what's going on right now with GenuCell's new Ultra Retinol Cream.
00:44:39.100
It hydrates your skin at a cellular level and builds on top of the deep moisture with incredible
00:44:45.340
And it sounds, you know, you might be thinking, eh, it sounds great.
00:44:50.060
I don't know if I buy all these claims, though.
00:44:53.240
You can get your money back if you're not completely satisfied.
00:44:58.640
We're talking about 50% off right now at GenuCell.com slash Beck.
00:45:05.800
If you go to GenuCell.com slash Beck for up to 50% off the brand new cream, you'll also
00:45:10.340
get GenuCell's immediate effects for results in 12 hours or less.
00:45:19.860
They have the free express shipping going on, free returns, great customer service, and
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
00:46:05.800
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
00:47:02.640
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
00:47:18.900
We have vainly imagined in our deceitfulness of our hearts that all these blessings were produced
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,
00:47:57.980
I asked the Senate to pass that resolution just, what, two months into COVID.
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.
00:48:31.460
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.
00:48:53.860
I mean, it takes incredible faith to humble yourself and turn and start walking in a different direction.
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.
00:49:27.040
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.
0.95
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.
00:50:14.280
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.
0.99
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.
0.72
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.
0.57
00:50:57.900
Unfortunately, they spread it mostly thanks to the movement called the German Christians.
0.99
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.
1.00
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.
0.99
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.
00:52:04.620
He sat back, actually, as Hitler installed his dictatorship.
0.83
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.
1.00
00:52:29.020
He became a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, anti-Semitic Aryan.
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.
0.93
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.
0.74
00:53:42.000
Joy wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor.
00:53:44.680
She says, Relief Factor is absolutely wonderful.
00:53:52.200
I've had severe neuropathy for several years, as well as a hip that was broken.
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?
00:54:16.500
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.
00:54:28.640
And about 70% of the people who try this trial pack for three weeks go on to order more month after month.
00:54:58.640
Reconstruction quickly turned punitive towards Germany.
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.
1.00
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
00:56:02.540
At the gathering, Bonhoeffer was praised for his unwavering faith.
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.
0.51
00:56:26.140
Would the Nazis have been able to do what they had done if church members had truly been
1.00
00:56:32.560
From this event sprang forth the Stuttgart Declaration of Guilt on behalf of the church.
0.83
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
00:57:18.080
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
00:57:47.240
The Christians of Germany were called to repent on their knees, and miraculously, some answered
1.00
00:57:57.360
Here's why I wanted to end this series with this.
00:58:17.240
As we told you yesterday, wokeness is a cult.
1.00
00:58:21.860
It is a religious movement to a false god.
0.57
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
00:59:00.280
Are we really prepared to write our declaration of guilt in the future?
00:59:10.000
People of God, do you want to have to apologize for watching evil rise in our nations all across
00:59:20.180
Religious leaders, can you continue to be silent as God and goodness is attacked from
1.00
00:59:36.980
Or will you do the things that Niemöller did or the things that Bonhoeffer did?
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.
01:00:03.200
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.
01:00:20.520
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.
01:00:34.220
If we continue on this path of least resistance, of non-action, I shudder to think what our letter
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.
01:01:08.640
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.
01:01:56.080
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.
01:02:14.840
I don't want to ever, ever have to say those words and mean them.
01:02:42.640
This is the most holy holiday of all holidays for Christians.
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.
01:03:25.680
In the end, we all have the right, the privilege.
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.
01:03:51.760
And as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
01:04:11.980
The movement to start a parallel economy has already begun in many ways.
01:04:18.960
And you have the option to do business with companies that believe in what you believe and leave the competitors in the perennial dust.
01:04:27.100
Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative cell phone provider.
01:04:30.920
And they offer the same network coverage as the major carriers.
01:04:34.960
Plus, the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your money is supporting things like free speech, life, liberty.
01:04:44.440
All of the things that God has given to each one of us.
01:04:48.140
If the government doesn't protect it, well, then we have to.
01:05:03.040
They share the same values and the same cell towers.
01:05:18.060
Let's support the companies that are supporting us.
01:05:24.820
And head over to BlazeTV.com slash Glenn to get access to everything on Blaze TV.
01:05:43.740
He obviously didn't get the memo that it's Hawaiian shirt day here in the studio.
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.
01:06:19.020
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?
01:06:33.660
They're led by individuals usually and the church is usually the one who opposes the most.
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.
01:06:53.420
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.
01:07:11.820
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.
01:07:22.700
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.
01:07:38.460
I do want my church to say, look, here's what the scriptures say, which leads you to this value.
01:07:49.300
Is this person and you don't even have to get into the people's names.
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.
01:08:13.580
I'm saying as my personal view is, you know, I just, gosh, I just don't want everything to be political.
01:08:29.460
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.
01:08:44.340
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?
01:09:23.820
Speaking as a Christian, in the year 2000, 85% of Americans professed to be Christians.
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.
01:09:49.840
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.
01:09:58.700
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.
01:10:16.980
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.
01:10:28.880
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.
01:10:40.940
This is looking at the last history, what's happened in the country in the last century.
01:10:47.300
This is a sermon on 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.
01:11:02.740
So he goes into principles of transportation and then says –
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.
01:11:26.300
Here's a sermon on the opening of the Great Bridge over the Connecticut River.
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.
01:11:43.700
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.
01:12:00.100
I mean, that's why the Jews were always blamed when disease broke out.
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.
0.54
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.
01:12:53.020
Anything that was in the news, they covered from the pulpit.
01:12:57.820
Here's a sermon on the execution of Henry Blackburn for the murder of George Wilkinson.
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.
01:13:20.120
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.
01:13:30.460
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?
01:13:49.300
You know, on the ethical use of AI or quantum computing or the Internet that just didn't end in porn.
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.
01:14:36.100
You know, we don't know the basic defense or stance on really huge questions.
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.
01:15:07.580
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?
01:15:28.200
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?
01:15:47.200
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.
01:16:17.800
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.
01:16:37.320
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.
01:17:00.000
And so 312 churches, most of them rural churches, got together and said, hmm, this is not good.
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.
01:17:15.140
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.
01:17:22.700
And they had 77,000 people out of those 312 churches who had never before voted who voted for Yonkin.
01:17:31.660
So right there, out of tens of thousands of churches in Virginia, 312 little churches did that.
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.
01:17:45.700
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.
01:18:01.020
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.
01:18:11.320
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.

01:19:17.680
Have you released yet another to compete with your original RealEstateAgentsITrust?
01:19:24.460
I so want to just pay, even if it was $10,000 for that domain name, just to say yes.
01:19:37.240
That is the place where you can go, and you'll get a referral to the people we think are the best real estate agents in your area, based on all different kinds of stats.

01:19:59.220
You have to go to commercial when you're done with this.
01:20:05.040
Another example of why Glenn Beck is in the Radio Hall of Fame.
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.
01:21:15.960
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.
01:21:51.980
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.
01:22:09.880
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.
01:23:30.580

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.
01:24:10.600
It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft affects all of our lives.
01:24:18.700
You put your information at risk on the internet.
01:24:23.380
They can't catch everything because no one can.
01:24:26.300
But they can monitor things better than you can on your own.
01:24:40.980
If it's something that they've missed or others have missed, they have restoration specialists that can work with you to help fix the problem quickly.

So, Stu, yesterday, a judge in Washington, D.C., decided to release Ali and Tahirazeta.
01:25:23.880
They were living in an apartment where other Secret Service agents lived.
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.
01:25:48.180
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.
01:26:00.480
They had different markings that you put on that for different, you know, for FBI, DHS, Secret Service.
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.
01:26:13.340
And that explains the drone, the high-end drone that they had as well.
01:26:19.220
And if someone has a drone, I want to make friends with them.
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.
01:26:59.660
Yeah, overlooking the Kudz Force training area.
01:27:08.120
But I've got one of those Four Seasons timeshares that are there.
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.
01:27:26.280
I never have a hard time getting my timeshare there.
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.
01:27:52.680
The defense attorneys argued the government was making a mountain out of a molehill.
01:28:09.200
And I'm sure they're not going to get on the plane and go right back to Iran.
01:28:15.820
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.
01:28:41.480
We don't seem to be taking this all that seriously.
01:28:58.060
If you happen to be the president of the United States.
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.
0.98
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.
01:29:31.680
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.
01:30:03.660
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.
01:30:47.260
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.
01:30:56.820
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.
01:31:33.480
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.
01:31:52.520
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.
01:32:04.280
We need we need to address these high prices and urgently.
01:32:11.260
Has anybody noticed how how much of an old get off my lawn man he is now?
0.96
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.
01:32:36.900
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.
01:32:48.840
But he all of a sudden he was like, no, no joke.
01:32:54.700
You're like, hold, dude, man, you are really get the metal detector.
01:33:01.060
This is super common with people going through what it appears Joe Biden is going through.
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.
01:33:21.560
The the the normal interactions you have with people start to get really frustrating.
01:33:27.040
You know, and when you you can't you feel like people are mocking 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.
01:33:49.580
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?
01:34:09.100
I said, my wife is the biggest frustration because I cannot hear.
1.00
01:34:25.540
And I'm constantly saying, wait, say that again.
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.
01:34:43.440
And she said, this is the biggest problem when you start to lose your hearing is you get really frustrated.
01:34:54.180
And it's just this weird misunderstanding kind of thing.
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.
01:35:17.260
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.
01:35:52.280
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.
01:36:06.020
I didn't think I would hear that from the ear specialist, but yes.
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.
01:36:37.520
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.
01:36:48.020
So you're overloading because, you know, there'd be sentences where I'm like, the chicken is wearing shoes.
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.
01:37:19.500
We just did this special on Wednesday and, you know, there, it's just, he's checked out.
01:37:38.320
Rarely is there something there behind the eyes with him.
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?
01:37:59.000
Okay, now look, he turns and he looks like he's shaking hands with Niblet, the invisible Himalayan Sherpa.
01:38:11.500
Okay, then he just stands and looks and walks off.
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.
01:38:28.480
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.
01:38:44.900
But the things that he says occasionally now are much different than the crazy things he used to say.
01:38:55.660
I think, honestly, I'm glad you said that about looking at the other camera angles.
01:39:01.980
You can always find stuff that makes Joe Biden look bad.
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.
0.98
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.
01:40:00.940
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.
0.71
01:40:14.720
So they're throwing her under the bus, but they won't say a word about Joe Biden.
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.
01:40:31.400
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?
01:40:48.320
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.
01:41:01.600
It is called The Tuttle Twins and the Creature from Jekyll Island.
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.
01:41:43.260
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.
01:42:00.440
The Tuttle Twins and the Creature from Jekyll Island.
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.
1.00
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.
0.55
01:43:02.060
I thought it was half the cabinet, but it's something like that.
01:43:08.800
The people that are in his administration that actually do something like that.
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.
0.58
01:43:25.080
I don't think that's in the 25th Amendment, is it?
01:43:31.660
Because we were just talking about this because I was interested.
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.
01:44:00.280
Because they certainly wouldn't vote for that now.
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.
01:44:23.800
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.
01:44:39.780
The whole next day, I'd be dragging my butt around.
01:44:44.820
My pillow products have really helped me sleep.
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.

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.
01:46:21.780
This is also Passover when the spirit passed over the houses of the Israelites and killed
0.98
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.
01:47:09.540
Now, they did have sex with other women, but it's still an immaculate, amazing thing.
01:47:33.820
I even thought, because this is a prison, they're in Clinton, New Jersey.
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.
01:47:58.200
They don't know what they're going to do with the children yet.
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.
01:48:45.960
I don't know if they were menstruating at the time.
01:48:52.720
If the men, I mean, sorry, the transgendered women were menstruating.
0.99
01:48:59.620
What you're saying is that a woman, a biological woman-
01:49:24.140
It's not actually my name, but that's a whole different story.
01:49:43.500
Yeah, is that why the critics, because they just can't forgive him for anything?
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.
01:50:05.700
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?
01:50:22.740
You know, we're going to be doing an interview with Mel Gibson anytime soon.
01:50:30.700
Jerry wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

01:50:39.620
But trial bag was more than enough to see the results I needed to continue purchasing more.

They say that time itself does not exist as we know it.
01:51:44.140
It only really exists as something called space-time.
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.
01:52:14.980
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.
01:52:27.120
The people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.
01:52:36.240
I did not have this vast right-wing conspiracy.
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.
01:53:05.260
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.
01:53:37.800
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,
01:54:09.380
when most of the world couldn't read nor write,
01:54:18.100
where we can hear and see a lone protester standing in front of a tank
01:54:43.640
We stop at a small walled city in the Middle East.
01:55:15.060
His friends, who have been with him for several years,
01:55:22.480
They still don't know that even though they sleep,
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
01:55:59.460
he begged his friends to wake and pray with him.
01:56:04.000
They didn't know how serious his request really was.
01:56:17.840
He asked this again before returning to the garden alone.
