Transcript

00:00:00.040 Mark Lee in for Beck today, live from West Michigan, and of course, Wood Radio WOOD, high atop West Michigan this morning.
00:00:09.220 Overlooking downtown Grand Rapids, in fact, and some of the headlines.
00:00:13.420 You got a little bit of a hangover from the turkey, we'll fix that, we got the thing that'll cure you.
00:00:18.760 It is a Beck Friday.
00:00:23.020 We're talking about the crumbling narrative.
00:00:26.600 You've seen the news stories lately, and it seems like one after the other.
00:00:31.280 I don't know if you follow these, they continue to crumble.
00:00:35.740 Every, you know why it is, every single story you see pushed, it's not just the facts anymore,
00:00:41.120 it's always pushed on you and me with a little added extra sauce.
00:00:50.420 Yeah.
00:00:52.240 Let me tell you what, it's not the, well, it's not.
00:00:56.600 It's a little extra flavor.
00:00:59.840 Now, look, I understand Thanksgiving food.
00:01:01.780 Maybe I might want my Thanksgiving dinner, a little flavored, you know, correctly.
00:01:07.240 I may want a little extra something.
00:01:11.120 Well, I may want an extra heaping helping.
00:01:13.440 When it comes to the news these days, you just want the facts.
00:01:17.780 I just want the story.
00:01:20.980 Not your story, but the story.
00:01:23.060 Tell me what happened.
00:01:25.580 And I'll figure out what happened, what it really means on my own.
00:01:30.700 I'll listen to a couple of trusted folks.
00:01:32.720 Maybe I'll do some extra digging if I'm interested.
00:01:36.600 But, you know, these days we don't get that.
00:01:38.540 And it's hidden.
00:01:39.560 Well, it's hidden very well, precisely in what they tell you.
00:01:45.340 And then, you know what?
00:01:46.200 They don't tell you.
00:01:47.840 Have you noticed?
00:01:49.840 A couple of big stories, in fact.
00:01:52.380 I'll give you this one the other day.
00:01:53.940 The narrative continues to crumble.
00:01:57.320 It got a Colorado.
00:02:00.900 It's a tragedy.
00:02:01.820 This man comes in and attacks this nightclub.
00:02:10.780 Other pieces of this story, it just happens to be, you know, on an alternative lifestyle,
00:02:16.760 LGBTQ, a gay bar, whatever you want to call it, it just happens to be that particular type of club.
00:02:25.800 Is that important?
00:02:26.860 Well, I think it does matter that we need to hear that.
00:02:31.880 But is that the big lead issue?
00:02:35.800 Or is it the fact that innocent people were killed?
00:02:39.040 They were attacked by someone who clearly had issues.
00:02:45.060 That's evil.
00:02:47.100 But we don't hear that anymore.
00:02:51.720 We can't call it what it is.
00:02:56.860 When someone does violence to someone else, that's all we need to know.
00:03:04.340 That's bad enough.
00:03:06.040 But no, not bad.
00:03:07.420 It's certainly not bad enough for some of the folks like CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of them.
00:03:12.900 I don't know if you saw this, but CNN almost deflated as the narrative continues to crumble in their faces.
00:03:21.500 But as soon as the story came out, they were just so upset to hear Allison Camerata.
00:03:35.320 Wait a minute.
00:03:36.880 This is happening in real time.
00:03:38.700 Finding out that the person who attacked that club, according to the attorney, identifies as non-Bidenary.
00:03:50.500 So, attorneys for the accused shooter, Anderson Lee Aldrich, say in new court filings tonight, that the suspect now identifies as non-binary.
00:04:01.500 Oh.
00:04:02.220 In a footnote to a motion asserting legal privileges, the public defenders say, quote, Anderson Aldrich is non-binary.
00:04:09.900 Now, I don't know.
00:04:10.620 You can't see her.
00:04:11.920 If you're listening on the radio, obviously you can't see her, but I'm hoping that you can hear her.
00:04:18.480 Can you hear her?
00:04:20.920 Can you hear the disdain?
00:04:23.920 Can you hear the disgust in her voice?
00:04:27.920 She doesn't believe it.
00:04:29.160 First of all, she does not believe it.
00:04:32.280 They're rooting for a narrative.
00:04:33.920 They're not rooting for the truth.
00:04:38.600 They use they, them pronouns, and for the purposes of all formal filings, will be addressed as Mix Aldrich.
00:04:46.560 So, in other words, not Mr. or Ms.
00:04:49.080 Joining me now, CNN political commentator Errol Lewis, also back with me, Al Franken and Joe Walsh.
00:04:53.220 I don't know what to say about that.
00:04:54.260 I mean, that's not anything that we had heard from his background.
00:04:57.000 You know, people have been looking into his background.
00:04:58.560 Oh, we didn't know that.
00:04:59.940 This is just one of those dangerous, deplorable Trump supporters.
00:05:05.060 This is a MAGA America.
00:05:06.920 That's what, obviously, the narrative is, right?
00:05:11.080 You know the narrative.
00:05:12.340 The narrative, the story was, well, this is only happening because Republicans are pushing back,
00:05:18.540 saying that, I don't know, kids shouldn't have sexually explicit material available to them in schools.
00:05:23.700 Pornography shouldn't be peddled on some of our most vulnerable in society, the most innocent.
00:05:37.180 They're the ones who caused this.
00:05:38.540 Those crazy, wacky Republicans.
00:05:41.700 Those Christians.
00:05:45.720 Well, the truth, I don't even know if we know the whole truth yet.
00:05:53.700 The truth is that anybody that does anything like this has something really wrong with them.
00:06:03.560 And we see violence happening all the time, and it's not just here in America.
00:06:09.240 They want to make it all about the gun.
00:06:11.120 Biden, by the way, a little bit later on, we'll talk about this.
00:06:13.780 He's going for the guns again.
00:06:16.120 I don't even know if he knew what he meant when he said this.
00:06:19.660 He actually meant what he said, but he's babbling, Biden babbling once again.
00:06:24.640 Had a little bit too much turkey.
00:06:26.240 Almost had a little of a coma yesterday.
00:06:29.900 Apparently, he mentioned he wanted to come for the guns.
00:06:32.660 We'll talk about that.
00:06:33.560 They want to blame the gun, too.
00:06:34.500 But no, the truth is that people are sick because society is sick.
00:06:40.540 If you want the ultimate truth, the real truth, you know, we live in a fallen world.
00:06:50.100 Evil is real.
00:06:51.720 We walk around acting like it's not.
00:06:54.180 It doesn't exist.
00:06:56.860 This panel believes that good is evil.
00:07:01.000 Well, that sounds amazing.
00:07:04.460 Why have I heard that before?
00:07:05.840 And I don't know if anybody here, are you guys lawyers?
00:07:08.920 I mean, you know, I don't know if, I don't know what to say about that.
00:07:12.060 I mean, that's what he's now saying.
00:07:13.780 It sounds like they're trying to prepare a defense against a hate crimes charge.
00:07:17.600 That's the least of his problems, legally speaking.
00:07:19.740 But it looks like they're trying to build some kind of sympathy or at least confusion on the question of whether or not this was purely motivated by hate.
00:07:26.600 Errol Lewis, a political commentator I've never heard of because I don't really watch a lot of CNN until this moment.
00:07:32.380 He gets paid to talk about this.
00:07:34.600 He gets paid to have these opinions.
00:07:36.720 He gets paid to push the narrative.
00:07:40.920 He says, and this makes no sense whatsoever because you got murder charges.
00:07:46.660 Doesn't matter whether they were hate crimes or it doesn't matter what they are.
00:07:52.280 You're going to jail for a very long time.
00:07:54.480 And in some places you may face the death penalty.
00:07:56.780 You may get the chair or whatever they use these days.
00:08:01.060 Errol says, no, this is just the attorneys trying to garner some sympathy.
00:08:06.980 I mean, that is what it sounds like.
00:08:08.920 We'll wait to see.
00:08:10.620 Yeah.
00:08:12.200 Garner some sympathy for the attacker.
00:08:20.380 This isn't the only story, folks.
00:08:22.180 You think that's all I got?
00:08:25.040 No, no.
00:08:26.140 What about, did you, you remember the Walmart attack that happened?
00:08:29.180 It happened a day or so after the attack in Colorado.
00:08:31.880 What about the Walmart attack?
00:08:33.380 Turns out that story disappeared from the news cycle really quickly.
00:08:37.880 But do you know why?
00:08:40.420 Well, some are still covering it.
00:08:42.020 But once they had a mugshot and they had, wow.
00:08:46.820 Oh, the truth behind who actually perpetrated the thing and what really happened behind the scenes.
00:08:57.080 Everything was off.
00:08:59.000 And they have to shift and switch as quickly as they can.
00:09:02.360 But you know what?
00:09:02.860 Much of this doesn't matter because the damage is already done.
00:09:04.960 A lot of what you hear in the news first is false.
00:09:09.860 Just remember that.
00:09:12.200 Whether that's by intention or just by the fact they're trying to scramble to get out the details as quick as they can.
00:09:17.720 A lot of what comes out first is false.
00:09:22.180 That's why narratives like this tend to crumble.
00:09:25.460 But why are they pushing these narratives in the first place?
00:09:30.840 We'll talk more about that.
00:09:32.940 Plus, you can join us today on the Glenn Beck program.
00:09:35.880 We're listening, anywhere you're watching, listening to the program today, you can join us.
00:09:40.620 888-727-BECK.
00:09:42.340 That's the phone lines.
00:09:43.240 Love to hear it.
00:09:43.600 Especially if you're out getting some Black Friday shopping done.
00:09:46.940 Getting some deals.
00:09:47.940 Oh, I got stories about that as well today.
00:09:50.780 They say they think it's going to be, despite Bidenflation, despite the economy,
00:09:54.440 they think it's going to be a big Black Friday.
00:09:57.840 Well, it's Beck Friday here.
00:09:59.000 We'll continue with more.
00:09:59.920 It's Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck program.
00:10:02.340 Back after this.
00:10:08.120 The narrative continues to crumble, and it's no surprise because it's not the truth.
00:10:11.800 What is the narrative?
00:10:12.580 Well, it's a story.
00:10:13.460 Another word for story.
00:10:15.380 I remember when I was a kid, I used to hear,
00:10:19.580 are you telling stories?
00:10:21.780 In other words, are you telling fibs?
00:10:24.440 Are you telling lies?
00:10:29.980 That's what half of the time we hear when we turn on the news.
00:10:33.200 You really can't believe most of what you hear.
00:10:35.400 You have to come to the table, I guess, with a little, take it with a grain of salt.
00:10:39.620 I'm skeptical, I would say, is a good way to put it.
00:10:44.080 Revealed.
00:10:44.580 Cops find manifesto on Walmart Shooter's phone,
00:10:48.100 outlining his unhappiness at recent change to his employment status.
00:10:54.220 This is from the Daily Mail.
00:10:56.200 They say he was angry toward colleagues who were, quote, harassing him.
00:11:02.020 Neighbor says he left in silence to slaughter six.
00:11:05.060 His mugshot reveals that Andre Bing was not a well man.
00:11:18.440 Bing disgruntled a manager.
00:11:22.000 Just happens to be black.
00:11:23.660 That's why you haven't seen his mugshot plastered all over the media.
00:11:31.800 And no, I'm not racist for telling you that.
00:11:34.340 They're racist for having different ways of handling these things.
00:11:40.640 They're wrong because they have narratives that they want to push.
00:11:51.680 You know who really suffers because of this?
00:11:58.220 You, me, the American people.
00:11:59.520 Because we're not really facing the truth.
00:12:01.340 What really matters is we do have mental health issues in this country.
00:12:05.760 No, but they push that.
00:12:06.980 In fact, you see mental health issues, crises celebrated on a daily basis.
00:12:16.500 We ought to elevate these voices, they'll say.
00:12:21.960 People who have real problems.
00:12:23.540 I mean, look, you don't have to look much further.
00:12:27.200 And people who are clearly delusional,
00:12:31.840 they're getting most of the airtime these days.
00:12:36.980 I mean, you listen to cable news networks, you watch for that.
00:12:41.080 And a lot of those delusional folks are in Washington, D.C. as well.
00:12:46.820 Here's more on the story.
00:12:47.940 A neighbor of Bing described the moment the killer left his rampage in silence.
00:12:51.220 One of the victims often argued with his manager, Bing,
00:12:55.620 about working weekends.
00:12:56.800 His neighbor telling Daily Mail,
00:12:58.880 disgruntled manager walking into the break room of the superstore
00:13:02.380 in Chesapeake, Virginia, before opening fire,
00:13:04.600 killing six other workers in a terrifying attack on Tuesday night, they said.
00:13:13.600 FBI agents swooping in on the three-bedroom, $300,000 property
00:13:17.260 where he lived alone on Tuesday night.
00:13:19.300 Locals described seeing SWAT team using a battering ram.
00:13:23.380 Picture show authorities searching a shed at the rear of the property
00:13:28.360 and removing bags full of clothing.
00:13:31.220 Andre Bing.
00:13:34.000 And I think he's dead now, too.
00:13:36.260 I think he turned the gun on himself later on.
00:13:41.080 And it, you know, it just completely conflicts
00:13:48.900 with the narrative that they're pushing.
00:13:52.200 But wait, there's more.
00:13:53.840 Folks, that's not it.
00:13:56.820 I got another story here.
00:13:58.580 This one from The Blaze.
00:14:00.320 Theblaze.com.
00:14:01.360 Liberals blame homophobia for man on video
00:14:05.040 tossing brick at gay club in New York City.
00:14:08.440 Police arrested a gay man for the crime.
00:14:11.540 Now, I won't give you too much of my commentary.
00:14:15.380 I'll just tell you what I saw on Twitter for this
00:14:17.740 and some of the other different places.
00:14:21.560 They have video, surveillance video,
00:14:23.840 of some man tossing a brick.
00:14:27.100 What appears to be a man, we'll say that.
00:14:28.900 Never know these days.
00:14:29.900 But that appears to be a man tossing a brick
00:14:31.660 through the window of this gay bar in New York City.
00:14:37.500 And Twitter erupted with thoughts
00:14:39.660 because they immediately said
00:14:41.040 this must have been a hate crime.
00:14:42.400 This must have been homophobia.
00:14:44.040 Run amok!
00:14:45.820 Twitter immediately erupted with their conjectures on...
00:14:48.320 I hate to say this, but they did.
00:14:57.140 They called this on Twitter.
00:14:58.660 They ran amok with their conjectures
00:15:00.040 on the sexual proclivities of this individual
00:15:05.940 by the way he threw the brick.
00:15:10.320 They looked at his arm.
00:15:13.000 And they said, you know,
00:15:13.440 this kind of looks like Dr. Fauci
00:15:14.740 throwing that first pitch in baseball.
00:15:16.640 Yeah, I don't know.
00:15:19.320 I don't know if you can really get that from this,
00:15:21.380 but turns out they had spectacular...
00:15:28.380 Well, we'll just call that six sets.
00:15:31.660 They were able to call it on Twitter.
00:15:35.000 So another answer...
00:15:36.000 I only tell you this because
00:15:38.000 it's story after story after story here.
00:15:40.960 It is story after story
00:15:44.880 that we are constantly being pushed
00:15:47.120 or prodded or poked or nudged
00:15:49.880 or shoved even into this division in America.
00:15:53.380 Now, who would want to do that?
00:15:54.640 Why would they want to do that?
00:15:57.360 That's the real question.
00:16:00.340 Why are we constantly being divided in this country?
00:16:03.400 When I think, you know,
00:16:04.120 I don't know about you,
00:16:04.900 but I got together
00:16:05.620 and we had a great Thanksgiving with the family.
00:16:09.000 There wasn't any division.
00:16:10.960 There wasn't any fights.
00:16:14.220 I don't know.
00:16:14.540 Maybe your family, there was.
00:16:15.920 Maybe it's a little different,
00:16:17.500 but it was pretty calm.
00:16:20.040 All was calm, peaceful, silent turkey night.
00:16:26.840 That's kind of what we had.
00:16:29.580 I think most, if you talk to your neighbors,
00:16:31.780 most folks get along with their neighbors.
00:16:35.820 Regardless, even some that have signs up right next to you
00:16:38.820 I don't agree with.
00:16:39.460 I just went through that with the election cycle.
00:16:45.040 But folks, I tell you,
00:16:46.800 this division is intentional.
00:16:53.860 They're after something.
00:16:55.120 It's directly from a blueprint,
00:16:57.080 a playbook, in fact,
00:16:59.600 that we will discuss next.
00:17:01.040 We'll roll it out and tell you, in fact,
00:17:02.160 how to fight against this
00:17:04.180 because the time has never been more important.
00:17:09.040 It's Beck Friday.
00:17:10.440 We continue.
00:17:12.340 In for Glenn Beck today,
00:17:13.360 it's Justin Barkley,
00:17:14.300 live from West Michigan,
00:17:15.920 Grand Rapids and Wood Radio
00:17:17.160 on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:17:18.300 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:17:30.020 It's called Divide and Conquer.
00:17:33.900 There's a reason we're being pushed further and further apart.
00:17:38.620 There's a reason why
00:17:39.680 most of these mainstream media outlets
00:17:42.040 are pushing certain narratives,
00:17:44.540 stories,
00:17:45.480 and pushing us into boxes,
00:17:48.900 shoving us away from each other
00:17:51.080 on a daily basis.
00:17:53.180 The narrative is crumbling.
00:17:54.460 They're getting caught here and there.
00:17:58.960 Maybe there's a little hope
00:18:00.120 with Elon Musk buying Twitter.
00:18:03.760 Maybe there's a little bit of hope
00:18:05.500 that you'll start to see.
00:18:06.640 In fact, what did he?
00:18:07.820 Did he fact check Twitter?
00:18:09.620 Did you see this the other day?
00:18:11.220 He fact checked the president,
00:18:14.140 the White House.
00:18:14.880 I think he fact checked Biden's Twitter account
00:18:17.700 on something.
00:18:19.040 I had to pull that up here in a little bit.
00:18:20.480 We'll talk a little bit more on Twitter.
00:18:22.740 As he's now revealed amnesty.
00:18:24.900 Well, not that kind.
00:18:25.700 He wants Twitter amnesty.
00:18:27.780 They're going to bring back
00:18:28.680 all of these old banned
00:18:30.200 and suspended accounts.
00:18:32.400 Open them up.
00:18:33.060 And he's also been talking about
00:18:34.080 behind the scenes.
00:18:34.760 He said,
00:18:35.060 you will not believe
00:18:35.840 what we've uncovered
00:18:36.640 when it comes to the censorship.
00:18:39.240 In other words,
00:18:40.020 this is the way for them
00:18:41.280 to craft their narrative,
00:18:42.740 suppress the truth,
00:18:44.640 and of course,
00:18:45.980 keep you in the dark.
00:18:47.400 Keep you,
00:18:48.540 your family,
00:18:49.760 and your neighbors divided.
00:18:51.220 So they can conquer.
00:18:54.460 Let's talk about
00:18:55.240 what's really happening,
00:18:56.160 of course,
00:18:57.280 how we can fight back
00:18:59.320 and talk to the guy
00:19:01.340 who wrote the book on it all.
00:19:02.480 Who was Karl Marx?
00:19:03.940 The men,
00:19:04.760 the motives,
00:19:05.420 and the menace
00:19:06.260 behind today's
00:19:07.860 rampaging American left.
00:19:09.540 Jim Sensen joins us right now.
00:19:11.460 Jim,
00:19:11.680 I appreciate you being here
00:19:12.680 with us today.
00:19:13.260 How are you,
00:19:13.660 my friend?
00:19:15.000 Hey,
00:19:15.220 Justin.
00:19:15.960 How are you?
00:19:16.620 Thanks for having me.
00:19:17.660 Absolutely.
00:19:18.640 We just talked,
00:19:19.360 and I don't know
00:19:19.720 if you were able
00:19:20.080 to hear any of this earlier,
00:19:21.060 but we just talked
00:19:21.640 about the continuing
00:19:22.500 crumbling of the narrative,
00:19:24.300 particularly in several
00:19:25.280 different news stories
00:19:26.380 in,
00:19:27.320 well,
00:19:28.500 in the case
00:19:29.320 in Colorado.
00:19:31.740 The person
00:19:32.880 who attacked
00:19:33.400 that
00:19:33.740 alternative
00:19:35.600 lifestyle bar,
00:19:36.960 the gay bar
00:19:37.480 in Colorado,
00:19:38.160 that individual,
00:19:39.420 the attorney
00:19:39.780 coming out
00:19:40.300 and saying
00:19:40.760 identifies
00:19:41.880 as non-binary.
00:19:45.620 The other
00:19:46.560 was the liberals
00:19:48.840 blaming homophobia
00:19:50.920 for the man
00:19:51.760 who tossed a brick
00:19:53.120 through a window
00:19:54.160 of a gay bar
00:19:54.980 in New York City.
00:19:56.120 Police arrested
00:19:57.300 that man.
00:19:58.920 He was gay.
00:20:01.340 There's just story
00:20:02.400 after story
00:20:03.160 now that we're
00:20:04.360 walking through,
00:20:05.080 and the narrative
00:20:05.740 continues to come
00:20:06.660 if you wait long enough.
00:20:08.160 That usually happens.
00:20:09.420 The truth does come out,
00:20:10.960 but I want to really
00:20:12.640 talk to you about this today,
00:20:13.960 about why this is happening
00:20:15.600 behind the scenes.
00:20:16.620 It seems like
00:20:17.200 we are being more divided
00:20:18.640 now more than ever before,
00:20:19.900 and I don't think
00:20:20.360 Americans
00:20:20.800 really
00:20:22.620 are necessarily
00:20:24.180 that divided
00:20:25.020 in a lot of ways,
00:20:26.500 but they continue
00:20:27.900 to try to push us
00:20:29.240 further apart.
00:20:30.140 Why is this happening?
00:20:31.840 You've got the playbook.
00:20:33.080 You wrote the book
00:20:33.700 on some of this stuff.
00:20:35.440 Walk us down that path.
00:20:36.620 Well, you know,
00:20:39.100 it's not a new strategy.
00:20:42.100 It's just a strategy
00:20:45.300 people aren't used to
00:20:46.620 when it comes to warfare.
00:20:49.440 I mean,
00:20:49.880 I describe this,
00:20:52.580 what's going on,
00:20:54.260 as a form of military
00:20:56.520 offensive against America.
00:20:58.880 You know,
00:20:59.720 divide and conquer
00:21:00.780 as old as the hills,
00:21:02.320 but divide and conquer
00:21:04.960 doesn't,
00:21:07.740 hasn't,
00:21:08.200 or maybe hasn't
00:21:09.120 in the past
00:21:09.960 taken this form
00:21:11.940 where
00:21:12.880 people's beliefs
00:21:15.160 are
00:21:16.000 questioned,
00:21:18.120 people's ideas
00:21:20.100 are questioned,
00:21:21.160 and then they're attacked,
00:21:23.580 and it's very one-sided.
00:21:26.280 So, you know,
00:21:27.000 I was looking,
00:21:27.880 for example,
00:21:28.460 this morning
00:21:29.320 at the fact
00:21:30.700 that
00:21:31.520 Catherine Engelbrecht
00:21:35.260 and Greg Phillips
00:21:37.060 of True the Vote,
00:21:39.140 who helped produce
00:21:40.880 the movie
00:21:42.860 2,000 Mules,
00:21:44.940 were just released
00:21:47.420 from jail.
00:21:48.280 They had been
00:21:49.060 jailed
00:21:49.460 because they
00:21:51.000 refused
00:21:51.820 to cite
00:21:53.340 the source
00:21:54.740 for their
00:21:55.960 accusation
00:21:57.160 that this
00:21:58.360 election company,
00:21:59.640 Konec,
00:22:00.640 had stored
00:22:01.900 information
00:22:03.500 about millions
00:22:04.820 of election workers
00:22:07.180 at a server
00:22:08.540 in China.
00:22:10.520 And so,
00:22:11.740 the Fifth Circuit
00:22:14.140 Court
00:22:14.760 roundly
00:22:16.740 excoriated
00:22:19.000 the lower
00:22:19.540 court
00:22:20.040 for
00:22:20.940 arresting
00:22:22.140 them
00:22:22.460 on the
00:22:23.740 basis
00:22:24.080 of the
00:22:24.460 fact
00:22:24.720 that
00:22:24.900 they
00:22:25.120 wouldn't
00:22:25.560 provide
00:22:26.020 that
00:22:26.360 information.
00:22:27.600 I mean,
00:22:28.200 it's stunning.
00:22:29.940 And yet,
00:22:30.980 at the same
00:22:31.600 time,
00:22:34.760 Engelbrecht
00:22:36.180 and Phillips
00:22:36.860 took their
00:22:37.960 information
00:22:39.020 to none
00:22:40.400 other than
00:22:41.000 George
00:22:41.500 Gascon,
00:22:42.920 the attorney
00:22:43.960 in,
00:22:44.700 the district
00:22:45.280 attorney
00:22:45.800 in Los
00:22:46.300 Angeles
00:22:46.760 who's
00:22:47.660 been
00:22:47.860 letting
00:22:48.240 everybody
00:22:49.100 go.
00:22:50.300 You know,
00:22:50.640 the guy
00:22:51.300 who believes
00:22:52.300 that people
00:22:52.880 on their
00:22:53.980 side
00:22:54.340 shouldn't be
00:22:54.880 in jail
00:22:55.360 at all.
00:22:56.200 And,
00:22:56.440 of course,
00:22:56.960 they had
00:22:58.200 originally
00:22:58.940 arrested
00:22:59.560 the head
00:23:00.880 of Konec
00:23:01.560 on the
00:23:01.880 base,
00:23:02.320 claiming
00:23:03.060 that he
00:23:03.680 had
00:23:03.920 embezzled
00:23:05.540 money from
00:23:06.500 them and
00:23:07.400 violated
00:23:07.980 their
00:23:08.520 contract
00:23:09.300 by
00:23:10.220 storing
00:23:11.300 this
00:23:11.620 information
00:23:12.220 in China.
00:23:13.900 And now
00:23:15.340 they've
00:23:15.660 dropped
00:23:15.980 all
00:23:16.380 charges
00:23:16.960 and the
00:23:17.840 LA Times
00:23:18.740 proudly
00:23:19.300 boasts
00:23:20.000 that the
00:23:21.640 prosecutor
00:23:22.340 that
00:23:22.800 Engelbrecht
00:23:23.600 and Phillips
00:23:24.820 talked to
00:23:25.540 who was
00:23:26.600 an assistant
00:23:27.600 was put
00:23:29.280 on leave
00:23:30.160 and here's
00:23:31.780 the headline.
00:23:35.800 LA
00:23:36.120 prosecutor
00:23:36.920 puts
00:23:37.400 on leave
00:23:38.180 over
00:23:39.780 questionable
00:23:40.520 cases
00:23:41.220 sparked
00:23:42.240 by
00:23:42.700 election
00:23:43.520 conspiracy
00:23:44.860 theories.
00:23:47.620 And
00:23:47.900 they talk
00:23:50.860 about
00:23:51.420 you know
00:23:52.600 through
00:23:54.480 the vote
00:23:54.980 and
00:23:55.560 and
00:23:56.680 about
00:23:58.020 through
00:23:58.620 the vote
00:23:59.080 as a
00:24:00.440 Texas
00:24:00.820 based
00:24:01.260 nonprofit
00:24:01.960 that
00:24:02.300 has
00:24:02.480 fomented
00:24:03.180 conspiracy
00:24:04.140 theories
00:24:04.720 about
00:24:05.060 the
00:24:05.280 2020
00:24:05.800 presidential
00:24:06.840 election.
00:24:08.300 Right.
00:24:08.520 And so
00:24:09.020 yeah,
00:24:09.840 I mean,
00:24:10.560 and it's
00:24:11.200 insane.
00:24:11.880 I'm very
00:24:12.540 glad they
00:24:13.100 got out
00:24:13.540 of jail.
00:24:13.980 They should
00:24:14.240 have never
00:24:14.760 been put
00:24:15.260 in jail
00:24:15.620 in the
00:24:15.820 first place.
00:24:16.800 I mean,
00:24:17.120 that's
00:24:17.600 an example
00:24:18.400 of how
00:24:21.460 corrupt
00:24:22.100 our system
00:24:22.840 has become
00:24:23.640 that a
00:24:24.400 court
00:24:24.900 literally
00:24:26.080 goes
00:24:26.620 after them
00:24:27.700 for
00:24:28.820 bringing
00:24:29.460 this
00:24:29.800 information
00:24:30.520 forward,
00:24:31.540 this critical
00:24:32.360 information,
00:24:33.220 which everybody
00:24:34.320 should be
00:24:34.880 concerned about.
00:24:36.020 And they
00:24:36.980 go after
00:24:37.560 them because
00:24:38.440 they won't
00:24:39.460 provide the
00:24:40.120 name of the
00:24:40.600 person who
00:24:41.560 provided that
00:24:42.380 information.
00:24:43.780 And then
00:24:45.060 not only
00:24:46.200 that,
00:24:47.020 but then
00:24:47.520 they discredit
00:24:48.360 them by
00:24:49.840 calling this
00:24:50.680 all election
00:24:51.860 conspiracy
00:24:52.580 theories.
00:24:53.120 But I
00:24:53.440 want to
00:24:53.720 ask a
00:24:54.120 question.
00:24:56.120 What
00:24:56.360 about,
00:24:57.140 you know,
00:24:57.600 I ran
00:24:58.700 for a
00:24:59.760 state
00:25:00.020 representative
00:25:00.720 district
00:25:03.040 this year
00:25:04.660 in heavily
00:25:06.240 Democratic
00:25:06.920 Maryland.
00:25:08.660 And I
00:25:09.080 actually managed
00:25:09.740 to get
00:25:10.080 some crossover
00:25:10.940 votes,
00:25:11.560 but I
00:25:11.840 didn't win,
00:25:12.380 of course.
00:25:13.220 And at
00:25:15.800 one of the
00:25:16.320 events,
00:25:16.820 somebody
00:25:17.640 walked up
00:25:18.300 to me
00:25:18.620 and said,
00:25:19.200 are you
00:25:20.000 an election
00:25:20.520 denier?
00:25:21.820 And I
00:25:22.120 said,
00:25:22.800 you mean
00:25:25.000 like Hillary?
00:25:26.140 You know,
00:25:27.100 I mean...
00:25:27.940 Well,
00:25:28.240 Jim,
00:25:28.880 I got to
00:25:29.320 ask you,
00:25:29.680 because you've
00:25:30.260 named a couple
00:25:30.920 of different
00:25:31.260 things.
00:25:31.680 These are
00:25:31.980 tactics that
00:25:32.820 are being
00:25:33.120 used.
00:25:33.760 And maybe
00:25:33.980 you talk a
00:25:34.400 little bit
00:25:34.600 more about
00:25:35.020 this in
00:25:35.380 your book.
00:25:35.760 Jim Simpson
00:25:36.220 with us
00:25:36.580 right now.
00:25:37.040 He wrote
00:25:37.260 the book,
00:25:37.580 Who is
00:25:37.780 Karl Marx?
00:25:39.460 My question
00:25:40.420 is,
00:25:40.800 you know,
00:25:41.040 this whole
00:25:41.640 election
00:25:42.020 denier thing,
00:25:42.920 this is another
00:25:43.520 strategy or tactic
00:25:44.760 of name-calling
00:25:46.620 people elections.
00:25:47.520 Nobody denies
00:25:48.680 there was an
00:25:49.220 election.
00:25:49.980 We just have
00:25:50.540 questions about
00:25:51.940 how we got
00:25:52.680 here.
00:25:52.940 And,
00:25:53.040 you know,
00:25:53.200 even when I
00:25:53.780 was in
00:25:54.160 school,
00:25:55.040 I remember
00:25:55.580 the teacher
00:25:56.440 in math
00:25:56.920 saying,
00:25:57.360 hey,
00:25:57.580 you know,
00:25:57.900 you've got to
00:25:58.300 show your
00:25:58.680 work.
00:25:59.040 In other
00:25:59.280 words,
00:25:59.460 I see your
00:25:59.920 answer,
00:26:00.280 but I want
00:26:00.580 to know
00:26:00.760 how you
00:26:01.080 got here.
00:26:01.580 We want
00:26:01.780 to see,
00:26:02.160 why can't
00:26:02.860 we lift up
00:26:03.420 the hood
00:26:03.840 and see what
00:26:05.240 the heck is
00:26:06.200 going on?
00:26:06.560 People that
00:26:06.960 ask those
00:26:07.680 questions,
00:26:08.820 they're the
00:26:09.260 real problem,
00:26:09.960 apparently,
00:26:10.720 people that
00:26:11.200 ask questions
00:26:11.980 at all.
00:26:13.400 In fact,
00:26:14.280 these are who
00:26:14.800 these Marxists
00:26:15.400 have problems
00:26:16.060 with.
00:26:17.080 Break that
00:26:17.640 down,
00:26:18.060 Jim.
00:26:18.240 Why is
00:26:18.720 that?
00:26:20.420 Well,
00:26:21.220 you know,
00:26:21.740 I don't
00:26:22.960 say,
00:26:23.280 you know,
00:26:23.500 we talk
00:26:23.920 about this
00:26:24.700 suppression
00:26:28.120 of conservative
00:26:29.400 thought.
00:26:30.360 I really
00:26:32.060 dispute that
00:26:33.480 characterization.
00:26:34.740 It's not
00:26:35.360 suppression of
00:26:36.400 conservative
00:26:37.680 thought or
00:26:38.920 views.
00:26:39.360 it's suppression
00:26:40.320 of the
00:26:41.060 truth.
00:26:41.880 They don't
00:26:42.380 want the
00:26:43.180 truth coming
00:26:43.940 out.
00:26:44.380 You know,
00:26:45.040 William F.
00:26:46.040 Buckley
00:26:46.320 called
00:26:46.780 conservatism
00:26:48.020 the ideology
00:26:48.880 of truth,
00:26:49.960 and his
00:26:50.400 colleagues,
00:26:51.840 Kurt Russell,
00:26:53.180 Russell Kirk
00:26:54.480 rather,
00:26:54.920 called it
00:26:55.480 the ideology
00:26:57.320 of no
00:26:57.900 ideology,
00:26:58.460 and that's
00:26:59.000 the way I've
00:26:59.520 always looked
00:27:00.000 at it.
00:27:00.800 You know,
00:27:01.180 I mean,
00:27:01.620 for 30
00:27:02.360 years,
00:27:03.040 well,
00:27:03.440 for 20
00:27:03.840 years,
00:27:04.220 I've been
00:27:04.460 writing.
00:27:05.040 For much
00:27:05.380 longer than
00:27:05.980 that,
00:27:06.260 I've been
00:27:06.580 researching,
00:27:07.760 and,
00:27:08.420 you know,
00:27:08.780 when I
00:27:09.160 went to
00:27:09.520 college,
00:27:09.880 I learned
00:27:10.440 when you
00:27:10.980 want to
00:27:11.460 make a
00:27:12.080 claim,
00:27:13.180 you support
00:27:13.800 it with
00:27:14.140 facts,
00:27:14.880 you know,
00:27:15.500 and you
00:27:16.100 cite those
00:27:17.020 facts.
00:27:18.180 And as you
00:27:18.700 know,
00:27:19.340 that's what I
00:27:20.620 did in my
00:27:21.120 book.
00:27:21.840 I don't
00:27:22.780 come up with
00:27:23.740 any conspiracy
00:27:24.540 theories.
00:27:25.480 I don't come
00:27:26.080 up with any
00:27:26.740 thing that
00:27:27.720 hasn't been,
00:27:28.860 you know,
00:27:30.160 properly
00:27:30.940 vetted,
00:27:32.140 and yet,
00:27:32.860 I'm a
00:27:33.560 conspiracy
00:27:34.020 theorist
00:27:34.740 just for
00:27:35.520 making those
00:27:37.000 claims,
00:27:38.000 making those
00:27:38.740 statements,
00:27:39.500 bringing them
00:27:40.140 up,
00:27:41.020 you know,
00:27:41.400 and it
00:27:42.260 goes all
00:27:42.700 the way
00:27:42.920 back to
00:27:43.400 Lennon,
00:27:43.780 who said,
00:27:44.280 we must
00:27:44.640 write in
00:27:45.280 a language
00:27:46.220 that inspires
00:27:47.720 hate,
00:27:48.980 revulsion,
00:27:50.080 and scorn
00:27:51.080 toward those
00:27:52.400 who disagree
00:27:53.260 with us,
00:27:54.940 towards those
00:27:55.640 who disagree.
00:27:56.160 So he didn't
00:27:57.280 care if what
00:27:57.840 they were saying
00:27:58.320 was true or
00:27:58.940 not.
00:27:59.500 They disagree
00:28:00.720 with them,
00:28:01.460 and therefore
00:28:02.600 they gotta
00:28:03.440 go.
00:28:04.220 And of
00:28:04.500 course,
00:28:05.020 once the
00:28:05.580 Marxists get
00:28:06.280 in power,
00:28:07.480 as they did
00:28:08.180 in the
00:28:08.520 Soviet Russia
00:28:10.020 under the
00:28:10.600 Bolsheviks,
00:28:11.760 they don't
00:28:12.480 merely suppress
00:28:13.860 the truth,
00:28:14.880 they just
00:28:15.600 take those
00:28:16.220 people and
00:28:17.040 disappear
00:28:18.860 them.
00:28:20.120 Yeah,
00:28:20.700 the history
00:28:21.380 is clear.
00:28:24.020 This is not
00:28:24.680 going anywhere
00:28:26.620 you want to
00:28:27.060 go.
00:28:27.340 This ends
00:28:27.880 in a very
00:28:28.280 bad way.
00:28:29.060 But let me
00:28:29.520 ask you this,
00:28:30.100 because maybe
00:28:30.500 we've learned
00:28:30.940 some of
00:28:31.240 those things
00:28:31.660 through history,
00:28:32.180 maybe we've
00:28:32.600 learned a
00:28:33.740 thing or two
00:28:34.300 in the book
00:28:35.060 that we can
00:28:35.760 learn how to
00:28:36.240 fight back.
00:28:37.440 What do we
00:28:38.220 do to fight
00:28:38.860 back?
00:28:39.220 Jim Simpson,
00:28:39.880 take a quick
00:28:40.340 break here,
00:28:40.840 and we come
00:28:41.200 back, let's
00:28:41.660 tackle that
00:28:42.180 subject,
00:28:42.640 because I
00:28:42.940 think it's
00:28:43.380 let's talk
00:28:44.180 Turkey.
00:28:44.620 I mean,
00:28:44.820 I think it's
00:28:45.340 something that
00:28:45.700 we all need
00:28:46.160 to know and
00:28:46.600 include in
00:28:48.280 our plans as
00:28:49.460 we move
00:28:51.360 forward here
00:28:52.200 and try to
00:28:53.600 take this
00:28:54.020 country back.
00:28:55.680 Who was
00:28:55.980 Karl Marx is
00:28:56.820 the name of
00:28:57.240 the book,
00:28:57.660 the men,
00:28:58.020 the motives,
00:28:58.440 and the men
00:28:58.760 behind today's
00:28:59.560 rampaging
00:29:00.100 American.
00:29:00.740 left.
00:29:01.680 It's
00:29:01.960 Barkley in
00:29:02.520 for Beck
00:29:02.880 today.
00:29:03.260 We continue
00:29:03.680 after this
00:29:04.180 on the
00:29:04.400 Glenn Beck
00:29:04.700 program.
00:29:05.740 The Glenn
00:29:06.560 Beck
00:29:06.880 program.
00:29:07.480 888-727-BECK
00:29:14.880 That's
00:29:15.160 888-727-BECK
00:29:17.440 join the
00:29:17.760 program at
00:29:18.240 any time.
00:29:18.620 Justin
00:29:18.920 Barkley in for
00:29:19.580 Glenn Beck
00:29:19.940 today on the
00:29:20.300 Glenn Beck
00:29:20.580 program.
00:29:21.060 We're talking
00:29:21.520 with Jim
00:29:22.060 Simpson.
00:29:23.360 He is the
00:29:24.260 author of
00:29:25.220 Who Was
00:29:25.660 Karl Marx?
00:29:26.260 The men,
00:29:26.560 the motives,
00:29:27.000 the menace
00:29:27.540 behind today's
00:29:28.280 rampaging
00:29:28.740 American love.
00:29:29.480 One of the
00:29:29.880 things we're
00:29:30.500 seeing is the
00:29:30.960 war on truth.
00:29:32.680 Biggest issues,
00:29:33.580 the numbers,
00:29:33.860 the narratives
00:29:34.640 continue to
00:29:35.320 crumble when
00:29:36.480 you see what
00:29:36.960 the news media
00:29:37.720 might be pushing
00:29:38.360 here or there
00:29:39.080 and the stories
00:29:39.920 every day there's
00:29:41.260 something new.
00:29:43.520 But it's not
00:29:44.420 just the battle
00:29:45.460 of words,
00:29:45.960 the war of words,
00:29:46.680 that's where it
00:29:47.660 starts,
00:29:48.340 but then it
00:29:48.800 ends in
00:29:49.340 stories like this.
00:29:50.920 One in four
00:29:51.340 Americans say
00:29:51.900 they won't be
00:29:52.300 having Thanksgiving
00:29:52.900 because they
00:29:53.560 can't afford it
00:29:54.120 this year.
00:29:54.480 A national
00:29:54.880 rail strike
00:29:55.580 viewed as
00:29:57.120 increasingly
00:29:57.840 inevitable.
00:29:58.960 All these
00:29:59.340 recover on
00:29:59.980 the way
00:30:00.260 and of course
00:30:00.640 election issues
00:30:01.800 and more.
00:30:03.640 Jim, I just
00:30:04.320 want to ask
00:30:04.760 you, how do
00:30:05.140 we fight
00:30:05.560 back when
00:30:06.560 it comes to
00:30:07.260 the issues
00:30:08.040 that we're
00:30:08.420 facing,
00:30:08.860 particularly
00:30:09.220 this war
00:30:09.740 on truth?
00:30:12.900 Yeah,
00:30:13.380 this is
00:30:14.500 something that
00:30:15.120 I've really
00:30:17.160 advocated for
00:30:18.260 decades.
00:30:20.440 When Fox
00:30:21.500 News first
00:30:22.460 started and
00:30:23.800 made
00:30:25.120 astronomical
00:30:25.960 growth,
00:30:27.860 it
00:30:28.160 demonstrated
00:30:29.420 to me
00:30:30.240 that people
00:30:31.620 were starved
00:30:32.880 for the
00:30:33.420 truth because
00:30:34.080 they had
00:30:34.660 been getting
00:30:35.180 the same
00:30:36.180 old nonsense
00:30:37.120 from the
00:30:38.280 mainstream
00:30:38.660 media for
00:30:40.000 decades.
00:30:41.080 And while
00:30:42.160 they might
00:30:42.700 have not
00:30:43.120 known what
00:30:44.660 the real
00:30:45.100 truth was,
00:30:45.800 everybody
00:30:46.260 kind of
00:30:46.880 sensed that
00:30:47.520 they were
00:30:48.280 getting played.
00:30:49.800 And so
00:30:50.220 when Fox
00:30:51.000 came on and
00:30:51.720 started actually
00:30:52.740 reporting the
00:30:53.540 truth, they
00:30:54.580 experienced
00:30:55.500 astronomical
00:30:56.480 growth.
00:30:57.580 Now, of
00:30:57.920 course, Fox
00:30:59.020 is kind of
00:30:59.920 veered left
00:31:01.240 somewhat and
00:31:02.440 now kind of
00:31:04.820 tends to
00:31:05.540 follow the
00:31:08.460 media to
00:31:09.320 a certain
00:31:10.460 extent.
00:31:11.020 That's a
00:31:11.380 shame.
00:31:14.000 You know,
00:31:14.420 they don't
00:31:14.880 really delve
00:31:15.880 deep into
00:31:16.820 the 2020
00:31:19.940 election, for
00:31:20.860 example,
00:31:22.060 except for
00:31:22.780 maybe, you
00:31:23.920 know, Sean
00:31:24.460 Hannity and
00:31:25.200 Laura
00:31:25.440 Ingram.
00:31:27.160 And of
00:31:27.580 course,
00:31:30.400 you know,
00:31:35.300 I got to
00:31:35.960 say, because
00:31:36.340 we only got
00:31:36.920 like a minute
00:31:37.380 left here,
00:31:37.980 but give me
00:31:39.160 some clear-cut
00:31:40.200 steps.
00:31:40.840 What can we
00:31:41.180 do?
00:31:41.320 Because I
00:31:41.580 think you
00:31:41.820 got a great
00:31:42.240 point.
00:31:43.560 Yeah.
00:31:43.700 Well, first
00:31:45.400 of all, I
00:31:45.840 mean, Elon
00:31:46.740 Musk, his
00:31:48.120 takeover of
00:31:48.940 Twitter and
00:31:49.500 what he's
00:31:49.860 doing with
00:31:50.340 it is one
00:31:51.280 example, but
00:31:52.560 we need a
00:31:53.480 lot more of
00:31:54.160 those kinds
00:31:54.800 of things.
00:31:56.460 I've long
00:31:57.380 advocated that
00:31:58.300 some billionaire
00:32:00.080 or a group of
00:32:01.920 billionaires purchase
00:32:02.860 one of the
00:32:03.500 networks, because
00:32:04.340 unfortunately, most
00:32:05.660 people still get
00:32:06.800 their news from
00:32:08.160 the networks,
00:32:08.880 and so
00:32:10.960 they're still
00:32:11.740 getting fed
00:32:12.620 a line.
00:32:13.920 And people
00:32:14.400 are afraid
00:32:15.340 to buck
00:32:17.480 the system
00:32:18.380 because
00:32:19.160 they get
00:32:21.660 marginalized
00:32:22.380 by their
00:32:23.580 own neighbors,
00:32:24.580 friends, by
00:32:25.260 their own
00:32:25.680 family.
00:32:26.720 And then the
00:32:27.260 other, so
00:32:28.160 we need to
00:32:29.260 do more to
00:32:30.320 build a
00:32:31.720 viable
00:32:32.440 network
00:32:34.760 that will
00:32:36.380 actually
00:32:39.120 report the
00:32:40.160 news, you
00:32:41.000 know?
00:32:41.560 And then the
00:32:42.500 other thing that
00:32:43.180 we need to do,
00:32:43.940 which we're
00:32:44.300 already doing,
00:32:45.240 and Ron DeSantis
00:32:46.040 is leading the
00:32:47.020 way on that,
00:32:47.700 is create a
00:32:48.460 parallel society
00:32:49.580 that goes
00:32:51.260 back to our
00:32:52.540 constitutional
00:32:53.440 roots, that
00:32:54.820 enforces the
00:32:56.060 law, that
00:32:57.140 clamps down on
00:32:58.240 censorship and
00:32:59.140 doesn't allow
00:32:59.840 it.
00:33:00.720 Jim Simpson, I
00:33:02.240 appreciate it.
00:33:02.820 Jim, I've got
00:33:03.240 to run because
00:33:03.820 we're up against
00:33:04.740 the hard break
00:33:05.380 here.
00:33:05.620 I appreciate
00:33:05.960 you, though.
00:33:06.380 Who Was Karl
00:33:06.960 Marks is the
00:33:08.260 book The Man,
00:33:08.880 The Motives,
00:33:09.320 and The Menace
00:33:09.740 Behind Today's
00:33:10.480 Rampaging
00:33:11.040 American Left.
00:33:11.780 He's right
00:33:12.160 about those
00:33:12.580 networks, but
00:33:13.200 what about a
00:33:14.340 whole other
00:33:15.120 type of
00:33:15.540 network, a
00:33:15.940 network of
00:33:16.440 family, friends,
00:33:18.040 sharing the
00:33:19.340 truth with
00:33:19.840 each other?
00:33:20.280 And of
00:33:20.460 course, there's
00:33:20.860 always the
00:33:21.340 blaze.
00:33:22.220 And for
00:33:22.460 Glenn Beck
00:33:22.820 today, Justin
00:33:23.860 Barkley on
00:33:24.720 the Glenn Beck
00:33:25.200 program.
00:33:27.360 This is the
00:33:28.800 Glenn Beck
00:33:29.420 program.
00:33:30.000 got no room to
00:33:50.780 compromise.
00:33:51.880 We got to stand
00:33:55.380 together, it's the
00:33:56.440 going to survive.
00:33:57.440 Stand up straight
00:34:01.660 and hold the
00:34:02.540 line.
00:34:05.400 It's a new day
00:34:07.300 and time to
00:34:08.140 rise.
00:34:11.820 What you are about
00:34:13.180 to hear is the
00:34:14.300 fusion of
00:34:14.820 entertainment and
00:34:16.220 enlightenment.
00:34:17.660 This is the Glenn Beck
00:34:19.780 program.
00:34:20.360 Oh, it's
00:34:24.980 Beck Friday.
00:34:28.680 Well, you're out
00:34:29.540 celebrating, maybe
00:34:30.380 doing a little bit
00:34:31.180 of the shopping.
00:34:33.320 We appreciate you
00:34:34.300 taking us with you
00:34:35.600 or wherever you
00:34:36.780 are.
00:34:38.120 Justin Barkley in
00:34:38.980 for Glenn Beck
00:34:39.460 today and we're
00:34:39.980 covering some of
00:34:40.520 the biggest stories.
00:34:41.300 In fact, what is
00:34:42.140 happening down in
00:34:43.300 Arizona?
00:34:45.220 Are they still
00:34:46.040 counting votes?
00:34:48.040 I can't imagine.
00:34:49.700 We'll get the
00:34:50.180 latest and an
00:34:50.720 update on that
00:34:51.440 plus some of the
00:34:51.920 other biggest
00:34:52.340 stories of the
00:34:53.320 day.
00:34:53.560 Speaking of
00:34:53.920 accounting,
00:34:54.380 where's all that
00:34:54.820 money gone for
00:34:55.500 the FTX folks?
00:34:56.900 And, oh yeah,
00:34:58.900 speaking of which,
00:35:01.040 Ukraine wanting
00:35:02.380 an account of
00:35:03.320 some of the money
00:35:04.000 gone there.
00:35:04.580 10% for the big
00:35:05.480 guy.
00:35:05.840 We'll be back in
00:35:07.140 just a moment after
00:35:08.100 this on the Glenn
00:35:08.840 Beck program.
00:35:19.700 Welcome back in.
00:35:23.600 You can follow me.
00:35:25.440 You can hang out.
00:35:26.620 You can tweet,
00:35:28.100 whatever you want to
00:35:28.740 call that, right on
00:35:29.560 Twitter, at Mr.
00:35:30.660 Justin Barkley, all
00:35:31.580 the social media
00:35:32.420 places as well.
00:35:34.540 We will continue to
00:35:35.960 spread the truth.
00:35:36.640 By the way, speaking
00:35:37.640 of the truth, the
00:35:40.880 narrative continues to
00:35:42.040 crumble.
00:35:44.440 It's a bit flaky,
00:35:45.960 like a good pie crust
00:35:47.240 ought to be, at
00:35:48.180 least, day after
00:35:51.480 Thanksgiving.
00:35:52.640 The narrative
00:35:53.460 continues to crumble.
00:35:54.520 We'll go down to
00:35:54.940 Arizona and check in
00:35:56.400 in just a little bit
00:35:57.240 with the latest
00:35:57.720 stories out of
00:35:58.520 Arizona.
00:35:59.740 But how about this?
00:36:00.560 One in four Americans
00:36:01.780 say they won't be
00:36:02.780 having Thanksgiving
00:36:03.500 dinner because they
00:36:04.880 can't afford it.
00:36:08.980 Bidenflation, the
00:36:11.400 economy, all of it
00:36:13.920 so bad that
00:36:17.060 apparently it's
00:36:18.080 wreaked real havoc
00:36:19.200 on Thanksgiving
00:36:19.960 dinner.
00:36:20.480 Now, I do think
00:36:23.400 costs were up.
00:36:27.020 I didn't do a lot
00:36:28.080 of the shopping for
00:36:29.360 the Thanksgiving
00:36:29.800 dinner.
00:36:31.000 We go to a
00:36:31.780 relative's friend's
00:36:32.540 house.
00:36:34.260 So I'm not like
00:36:35.200 watching that, but
00:36:35.880 you know, costs on
00:36:36.540 everything are up,
00:36:37.760 particularly on fuel,
00:36:38.940 so gas, but
00:36:39.920 mostly real
00:36:42.600 problems with
00:36:43.160 diesel.
00:36:44.880 Why?
00:36:45.360 Because with
00:36:45.820 diesel is what
00:36:46.680 powers to get
00:36:47.380 everything to you,
00:36:49.760 everything all
00:36:51.000 across the country
00:36:52.580 and, in fact,
00:36:53.200 across the globe.
00:36:55.820 It runs on
00:36:57.220 diesel, which I
00:36:58.680 guess is, you
00:36:59.580 know, now more
00:37:00.380 than ever, the
00:37:00.820 shortages and the
00:37:01.880 issues with supply
00:37:03.200 chain, but also
00:37:04.120 production, oh, and
00:37:06.980 refining, and all
00:37:07.980 the other problems
00:37:08.800 they've had with the
00:37:09.400 supply and demand
00:37:10.020 has just gone
00:37:10.520 through the roof.
00:37:11.120 You know, even in
00:37:12.600 some places, you
00:37:13.100 may have seen gas
00:37:14.040 go down a little
00:37:14.580 bit.
00:37:14.980 Look at diesel.
00:37:17.900 It's really, it
00:37:21.180 ought to be a
00:37:21.600 concern for a lot
00:37:22.360 of folks, but you
00:37:23.240 just don't buy the
00:37:24.200 diesel, you don't
00:37:24.760 think about it, most
00:37:25.720 folks, anyway.
00:37:27.780 By inflation in
00:37:29.400 Biden's economy, the
00:37:30.760 real turkey is the
00:37:31.680 prices.
00:37:32.320 Stuffing up 69%,
00:37:33.800 rolls up 22%,
00:37:35.960 pumpkin pie up 22%,
00:37:37.720 turkey, which is the
00:37:38.960 biggest item on your
00:37:39.960 Thanksgiving plate,
00:37:40.840 not surprisingly,
00:37:42.240 up 21%, also up
00:37:43.920 $5, fully a third
00:37:45.840 of that increase.
00:37:47.020 Yeah, everything.
00:37:48.980 You're paying more
00:37:50.120 for everything this
00:37:50.920 Thanksgiving.
00:37:51.620 20% increase, as
00:37:53.500 they say, literally
00:37:55.200 across the board,
00:37:56.200 even on Morning
00:37:56.740 Show, they can't
00:37:57.440 deny it.
00:37:57.820 Turn to your charts
00:37:58.640 and the story of
00:37:59.320 Thanksgiving.
00:38:00.860 Inflation is hitting
00:38:01.660 people who are going
00:38:02.300 to go out shopping
00:38:02.940 today to buy their
00:38:04.020 turkey and their
00:38:04.640 mashed potatoes and
00:38:05.380 everything else.
00:38:06.280 Prices up 20% for a
00:38:08.160 dinner this year, it
00:38:08.820 sounds like, almost.
00:38:09.980 Yeah, yeah, it's
00:38:11.200 pretty amazing.
00:38:12.260 They're up 18%, up
00:38:14.560 to $81.31, which
00:38:17.120 you can see in the
00:38:17.920 chart, in the bar
00:38:18.720 chart in the middle
00:38:19.440 there, and was just
00:38:21.780 a year ago, 68.72.
00:38:23.600 This is to feed a
00:38:24.700 family of 10.
00:38:26.420 20%, 20%.
00:38:27.940 Can you imagine a
00:38:31.700 quarter of people say
00:38:32.500 they're not going to
00:38:33.180 have, they're just not
00:38:33.900 going to eat, and it's
00:38:36.480 not going to have
00:38:37.300 Thanksgiving this
00:38:40.640 year, and I guess
00:38:41.560 they did it.
00:38:41.960 But what about Black
00:38:42.660 Friday?
00:38:43.200 You know, this is
00:38:44.120 strange.
00:38:44.500 We'll have to wait and
00:38:45.100 see what the numbers
00:38:45.780 look like, but this is
00:38:46.720 strange.
00:38:47.020 How about this?
00:38:49.480 They think that Black
00:38:50.660 Friday sales are going
00:38:52.400 to be through the roof.
00:38:53.200 People are going to
00:38:53.860 come out in numbers
00:38:54.740 this year more than
00:38:56.300 ever before, and the
00:38:57.480 reason they say this
00:38:58.560 is because things are
00:38:59.680 so bad.
00:39:00.300 I don't mean the lap,
00:39:01.360 but it's real.
00:39:04.500 Things are so bad that
00:39:08.500 people are coming out
00:39:09.320 for the deals.
00:39:10.080 They're trying to save
00:39:10.740 some money.
00:39:13.760 Now, that on top of
00:39:15.160 everything else, we have
00:39:16.240 this threat of this
00:39:17.360 national rail strike.
00:39:18.480 He thought the diesel was
00:39:19.420 issued bad with plane
00:39:20.720 trains, automobiles, you
00:39:22.800 name it.
00:39:24.260 Diesel runs it.
00:39:26.380 National rail strike
00:39:27.720 viewed as increasing
00:39:29.460 increasingly inevitable.
00:39:31.580 Now, I thought Biden
00:39:34.060 fixed this.
00:39:36.100 Don't you remember
00:39:37.060 before the election, he
00:39:38.880 had it all taken care
00:39:39.900 of?
00:39:40.040 He swooped in just in
00:39:41.920 time for the election,
00:39:43.060 and there was this rail
00:39:46.180 strike issue just was
00:39:47.380 looming, and they said,
00:39:48.500 oh, no, no, he's got it
00:39:49.700 solved.
00:39:50.520 He's got it solved.
00:39:54.000 That's not the word now,
00:39:55.260 and it could come between
00:39:56.300 now and Christmas, which
00:39:59.160 could really put a big
00:40:01.440 dent on the holiday
00:40:02.960 cheer.
00:40:05.120 National freight rail
00:40:06.340 strike from Breitbart
00:40:07.240 here viewed as
00:40:07.900 increasingly inevitable as
00:40:09.200 four rail worker labor
00:40:11.160 unions have rejected a
00:40:13.380 tentative agreement with
00:40:14.880 rail companies.
00:40:15.620 so, and the way this works is
00:40:21.140 if I guess if any of them have
00:40:23.080 a problem with it, if any of
00:40:24.360 them have a real issue with
00:40:25.400 it, then they're all off and
00:40:26.760 they're all out.
00:40:29.340 This could put a real damper on
00:40:33.080 the holiday.
00:40:33.500 You won't even get coal in your
00:40:34.540 stocking.
00:40:35.000 You'll get nothing.
00:40:35.800 Do you remember that song?
00:40:40.200 You're getting nothing for
00:40:41.680 Christmas.
00:40:42.700 Do you remember that?
00:40:43.620 That's, yeah.
00:40:46.680 I hate to say it, but that
00:40:48.040 might be, that might be a
00:40:52.400 reality, but folks, it's not
00:40:53.680 just Christmas presents.
00:40:54.540 I know that's what they like to
00:40:55.800 talk about, but more than
00:40:57.000 anything, you're talking about
00:40:58.320 food.
00:41:00.400 Perishables.
00:41:00.800 getting food to the plates of
00:41:05.160 folks.
00:41:06.080 I mean, real issues and energy
00:41:07.560 costs are through the roof.
00:41:09.260 You know, we've seen all of
00:41:10.560 that, but just in time for
00:41:15.240 Thanksgiving dinner, I don't
00:41:16.420 know if you saw this, they got
00:41:17.720 mocked mercilessly for this over
00:41:20.560 the, uh, the, uh, the holiday
00:41:22.100 here, but Biden's folks, Ron
00:41:25.400 Klain, in fact, White House
00:41:29.040 chief of staff put out a
00:41:30.540 handy dandy note.
00:41:31.740 It's talking points.
00:41:33.580 This is, this is incredible to
00:41:35.340 me.
00:41:35.640 And it really shows you how bad
00:41:37.540 things actually are.
00:41:39.880 They gave supporters, they gave
00:41:44.180 liberals, folks who are just
00:41:45.960 real, real everyday, everyday
00:41:47.860 average Joe's, not, not like
00:41:49.680 the Joe that's in, in the
00:41:51.680 residence, but they gave him,
00:41:54.140 they gave him cheat sheets like
00:41:55.600 they give Joe, they give him
00:41:56.960 the cheat sheet where you, you've
00:41:58.560 seen those, right?
00:41:59.220 Where they, they got to give
00:42:00.700 him a sheet and what to say and
00:42:02.320 where to go now, now stand over
00:42:03.640 here and now shake hands with
00:42:06.200 the air.
00:42:07.200 You know, you've seen him do
00:42:09.640 it.
00:42:09.820 I know a number of times.
00:42:11.640 Well, they gave Americans a
00:42:12.920 cheat sheet, talking points,
00:42:15.780 talking points for Thanksgiving
00:42:17.480 dinner.
00:42:18.140 This is what Ron Klain tweets.
00:42:21.060 One last item for your
00:42:22.540 Thanksgiving dinner.
00:42:23.460 Some talking points.
00:42:25.500 When that uncle comes at you
00:42:30.020 about POTUS.
00:42:31.680 Oh, and they are just absolutely
00:42:34.300 crazy.
00:42:35.060 Again, we were just talking about
00:42:36.700 fuel tackling, inflation and
00:42:39.160 lowering costs.
00:42:40.120 Everything on the table costs more,
00:42:42.700 by the way.
00:42:43.320 Everything.
00:42:43.960 We just went through that.
00:42:44.960 Some people are not even willing,
00:42:46.320 able to have Thanksgiving because
00:42:48.060 they can't afford it.
00:42:49.220 Gas prices down $1.35 since June.
00:42:54.240 Inflation is moderating.
00:42:56.200 These are all just like these crazy
00:42:57.840 lies that they say and they smile.
00:42:59.620 Everybody drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:43:01.680 This Kool-Aid is delicious.
00:43:05.160 Unsnarling supply chains to lower the
00:43:07.320 cost of goods.
00:43:08.360 This is what I guess Biden's been
00:43:11.080 doing behind the scenes.
00:43:12.440 I'm loving the sniffing hair and
00:43:13.740 eating ice cream cones.
00:43:14.900 This is what he's been doing.
00:43:16.220 Saving Americans with hearing loss
00:43:18.180 up to $3,000 on hearing aids.
00:43:21.160 Give me a break.
00:43:24.420 Tackling junk fees that cost
00:43:26.100 Americans billions like surprise
00:43:27.940 overdraft fees.
00:43:29.520 Uh-huh.
00:43:31.200 Yeah, well, everybody's overdrafting
00:43:33.100 right now because they got no money
00:43:34.360 in their pockets.
00:43:35.240 They got no money in their accounts.
00:43:37.120 Well, it didn't, it didn't go well.
00:43:42.700 Let's just put it that way.
00:43:44.380 The talking points did not persuade
00:43:46.700 critics on social media.
00:43:49.280 If somebody pulls this sheet out of
00:43:51.160 Thanksgiving dinner, you're fully
00:43:53.040 justified in catapulting them into the
00:43:55.840 nearest body of water.
00:43:57.600 Ben Shapiro said.
00:43:58.860 How about instructions for rigging
00:44:02.120 10,000 volt dining room chairs for
00:44:04.540 anybody who whips out talking points
00:44:06.720 at Thanksgiving dinner?
00:44:09.380 David Burge said on Twitter.
00:44:12.000 Lots of these all on the blaze.
00:44:14.020 You can find, by the way, if you want
00:44:15.280 to go check that out, theblaze.com.
00:44:16.980 Biden off for his little Thanksgiving
00:44:18.480 holiday.
00:44:20.160 Did you see?
00:44:22.120 And I guess he's in Nantucket.
00:44:23.620 Did you see the parade call?
00:44:27.060 It did not go well.
00:44:28.420 I watched this live.
00:44:30.800 And I guess they get the Macy's
00:44:32.220 Thanksgiving day parade.
00:44:33.380 They're marching down the street and
00:44:34.400 they go to this woman who is a
00:44:35.720 reporter.
00:44:36.100 They're standing on the street, the
00:44:38.260 side of the street.
00:44:38.840 And she's supposed to get a call for
00:44:40.580 the president.
00:44:42.680 And it does not go well.
00:44:46.580 Well, it goes as bad as well as you
00:44:48.520 can expect.
00:44:49.280 I'll play that for you coming up next.
00:44:50.680 And you can join me.
00:44:51.500 Speaking of those tweets over on
00:44:53.500 Twitter and anywhere else on social
00:44:55.100 media at Mr. Justin Barkley.
00:44:56.680 It's back in just a moment for
00:44:58.440 Beck Barkley on the Glenn Beck
00:45:00.480 program.
00:45:15.000 Well, this this wasn't the craziest
00:45:16.960 thing, the worst thing that that he
00:45:19.400 did over the break so far, Biden
00:45:23.740 making the call to the parade route.
00:45:25.580 And it goes as bad as well as you can
00:45:27.620 expect.
00:45:28.540 It's pure chaos.
00:45:31.200 The reporter with a look on her face.
00:45:33.940 It's just silence.
00:45:35.000 She said hello.
00:45:35.900 And there's nothing happening.
00:45:37.180 The band's marching and playing going
00:45:38.940 on behind her.
00:45:39.780 She's got this look on her face.
00:45:41.780 Deer in headlights like, oh, gosh, is he
00:45:43.860 there?
00:45:44.220 I don't think I can hear you.
00:45:46.900 Can you hear me, Mr.
00:45:48.140 President?
00:45:51.140 Yeah.
00:45:51.980 Can you hear him?
00:45:53.120 That's him and Dr.
00:45:55.100 Jill in the background.
00:45:57.320 And they're talking to each other like, I don't
00:45:58.980 know.
00:45:59.260 I don't know what to do here.
00:46:00.800 What?
00:46:01.980 Like the first time they've encountered a
00:46:03.420 telephone.
00:46:05.600 Yeah.
00:46:09.340 Hello.
00:46:10.380 Happy Thanksgiving, Mr.
00:46:11.820 President.
00:46:12.380 Are you there?
00:46:18.220 I should.
00:46:19.120 I should not be laughing.
00:46:21.040 This is not funny.
00:46:22.920 By the way, you remember that, that the
00:46:25.640 commercial, the big political commercial
00:46:27.380 they did back in the day.
00:46:30.380 Who do you want?
00:46:31.500 Four o'clock in the morning getting that
00:46:32.960 phone call or whatever.
00:46:34.000 You remember that?
00:46:37.280 Who do you want?
00:46:38.260 What was it?
00:46:38.860 Ten o'clock in the morning getting the
00:46:40.340 call for the Macy.
00:46:41.040 See, this guy can't even take that call.
00:46:45.220 And he has Dr.
00:46:47.400 Jill right beside his handlers right there
00:46:49.700 with him.
00:46:50.160 And Dr.
00:46:50.720 Jill can't even.
00:46:53.240 They can't figure.
00:46:54.460 They can't figure this phone call thing.
00:46:56.100 But listen.
00:46:58.760 He's also got the nuclear codes.
00:47:01.860 Can you hear me, Mr.
00:47:03.740 President?
00:47:04.060 You want me to do it for students?
00:47:07.000 Yeah.
00:47:08.380 Yeah.
00:47:08.820 Yeah.
00:47:09.380 Yeah.
00:47:10.300 Hello.
00:47:11.420 Happy Thanksgiving, Mr.
00:47:13.080 President.
00:47:13.520 Are you there?
00:47:14.200 Yeah.
00:47:14.700 Yeah.
00:47:15.180 We're here.
00:47:16.340 We're here.
00:47:16.740 Oh!
00:47:17.360 Happy Thanksgiving!
00:47:18.420 I was so worried this call wasn't going to go
00:47:20.800 through.
00:47:21.200 How are you?
00:47:22.100 It's just, just, just worried about that call.
00:47:26.280 Don't worry about the nuclear codes or any of the other call.
00:47:30.700 It's just, it's, it's unthinkable.
00:47:33.940 It's unthinkable.
00:47:35.360 All of it.
00:47:36.560 It's, it, this is the, the commander in chief, the leader of the free world.
00:47:44.080 And they can't figure out how to work a phone.
00:47:46.220 Now, listen.
00:47:46.960 I understand he's older that these phone calls and the networks and all that stuff,
00:47:52.340 it can be tough.
00:47:53.640 I've, you know, I've, we're doing one now.
00:47:56.680 You know, I, I'm here in Grand Rapids, Michigan at W O O D.
00:48:01.880 It's Wood Radio, West Michigan.
00:48:05.080 And somehow we're connected via the miracle of modern technology to Dallas, Texas and the,
00:48:11.320 the Glenn Beck studios there.
00:48:13.320 And they've got, you know, Mercury studios.
00:48:16.620 We've got everything, you know, wired in and sometimes it's tough.
00:48:19.680 I get it.
00:48:21.920 But this is even, it's, he was asked something.
00:48:24.380 I think that this is even more disturbing because he doesn't know what he's saying and
00:48:29.560 he doesn't know where he is half the time anyway, but here he is saying he wants to ban
00:48:36.260 semi-automatic weapons, basically.
00:48:41.660 That's essentially what he's saying here.
00:48:46.980 Semi, semi-automatic.
00:48:48.100 Now, if you're, if you're not a gun person, let me just explain to you, nearly every handgun
00:48:55.200 that's out there, nearly every, you know, there's some revolvers that are being used and folks
00:49:03.160 that carry, but nearly every handgun that's being used, whether it be the, you know, the
00:49:10.760 police officer or just the average Joe that's carrying, it's carrying a, chances are pretty
00:49:18.540 much going to be a semi-automatic.
00:49:20.800 What does that mean?
00:49:22.020 It just means that you pull the trigger.
00:49:26.220 One bullet comes out, pull the trigger.
00:49:28.860 Another bullet comes out.
00:49:29.940 As many as you have inside your magazine.
00:49:34.680 Now, you know, I'm not an expert in the field, but I think I know a little bit more, at least
00:49:42.100 than Joe, about this particular subject.
00:49:46.540 He's saying that those weapons are a problem.
00:49:49.680 What is going back to the muskets?
00:49:51.960 What?
00:49:52.320 The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick.
00:49:58.280 It's just sick.
00:49:59.440 It has no, no social redeeming value.
00:50:02.760 Zero.
00:50:03.400 None.
00:50:03.700 Say that to the woman who was able to stop an attacker.
00:50:08.140 She was able to fend off an attacker and stop a rape in progress.
00:50:15.200 You're saying there's no social, no redeeming value of these, these weapons, people being
00:50:21.740 able to defend themselves.
00:50:25.420 Say that to the woman who is, is being threatened.
00:50:29.520 Domestic violence with an ex.
00:50:31.460 It is the great equalizer.
00:50:35.340 She's able to protect herself.
00:50:37.680 Say that in any number of the cities.
00:50:40.160 Democrat run, blue cities, Philadelphia, Detroit, St. Louis, all across the country in these liberal
00:50:48.080 strongholds where crime is through the roof.
00:50:51.900 Tell them that they don't have a right to defend themselves or their children.
00:50:57.860 There's no social redeeming value.
00:51:00.160 The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick.
00:51:06.820 It's just sick.
00:51:08.380 It has no, no social redeeming value.
00:51:11.400 Zero.
00:51:12.060 None.
00:51:13.020 Not a single solitary rationale for it.
00:51:15.400 I wonder if he's going to instruct the Secret Service to stop carrying them as well.
00:51:22.680 I just, what do we go back to?
00:51:24.700 Swords?
00:51:25.400 Should we, should we duel with swords or something?
00:51:28.820 Or knives?
00:51:29.620 I mean, what, what, what is he asking people to do?
00:51:33.460 Maybe a, maybe a slingshot.
00:51:35.040 Maybe that's what we should, we should use for now on.
00:51:38.540 Like I said, the parade audio was bad, but not nearly as bad.
00:51:46.840 And by the way, he probably misspoke there.
00:51:49.560 He, he probably didn't.
00:51:51.640 I, I don't, honestly, I don't know what he meant because I don't think he knew what he meant.
00:51:55.840 But he's standing in front of a fire station while he's having his conversation.
00:52:05.580 And I, I wonder, you know, I wonder what the ultimate goal and the ultimate plan is.
00:52:12.180 Here in Michigan, I can tell you, we have a, for the first time in, in, in decades,
00:52:17.300 completely Democrat controlled executive House and Senate.
00:52:21.860 And the first, one of the first issues they plan on tackling our horrible governor here,
00:52:27.300 Gretchen Whitmer, is guns, gun control.
00:52:33.860 So how do you fend off the crazy, creepy weirdo that wants to sniff your child's hair?
00:52:42.100 Apparently he won't be with a semi-automatic weapon.
00:52:46.740 That is, that's not how he wants it done.
00:52:49.320 And I guess we're going back to the sticks and stones.
00:52:54.500 Uh, yeah, we're checking in with Arizona coming up as well.
00:52:57.800 Folks are going to get a little bit of a report of what's happening down in Arizona.
00:53:03.400 I think they're still counting votes.
00:53:05.800 Yeah.
00:53:06.460 How's that possible?
00:53:08.220 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:53:09.400 You ever notice any of these folks that, uh, they want to ban guns or any of these people in Washington, D.C.,
00:53:29.820 any of these folks who are in, let's say, let's call the regressive left, you know,
00:53:34.380 any of these people, they have a better idea of what you want to do with your life and what needs to be done.
00:53:40.140 And they want to tell you what to do.
00:53:41.580 Any of these people.
00:53:44.640 They, they, they, they, none of these folks are experts.
00:53:46.720 We were told to follow the experts for years.
00:53:49.820 Now it's been follow the experts, listen to the experts.
00:53:53.920 Oh, of course we know what that means.
00:53:55.240 Let's listen to their experts, their approved experts, spouting the approved narrative.
00:54:04.580 Listen to those folks.
00:54:05.720 Don't, they'll pay no attention to the actual experts.
00:54:08.940 You know, you get some guy like Joe Biden's out there talking about, uh, banning all semi-automatic weapons, as he puts it.
00:54:19.940 You know, basically he can't, he can't believe, he can't believe that these things are still allowed out there.
00:54:26.200 And of course, you know what he meant.
00:54:27.580 He meant, he meant, probably meant automatic.
00:54:29.160 That's he probably did, but I don't know.
00:54:31.180 I don't even know if he knows what he meant.
00:54:33.400 The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick.
00:54:39.520 It's just sick.
00:54:40.720 And have your security give them up for, all these people are calling for this.
00:54:44.700 They ought to, they ought to set the example, have their security, give them up first.
00:54:48.780 Barkley and for Beck today.
00:54:50.080 No, it's not, it's never going to happen.
00:54:51.760 And it shouldn't happen.
00:54:52.980 They ought to be secured.
00:54:56.060 But you also ought to have a chance and a right to be able to, to, uh, to defend yourself as well.
00:55:01.200 This, this, this is just reasonable, isn't it?
00:55:06.980 Yeah, it's, it's what we're talking about.
00:55:09.000 These things are just, speaking of unreasonable though, out in Arizona, where I still believe I don't, I think they're still counting votes.
00:55:18.340 So somebody just made the comment and a message to me.
00:55:24.040 And by the way, if you want to send me a message, I'm at Mr. Justin Barkley everywhere on social media.
00:55:28.760 You can, uh, you can text me.
00:55:30.320 You can go to my website, JustinBarkley.com.
00:55:32.380 Find out how to get ahold of me.
00:55:34.720 JustinBarkley.com.
00:55:36.340 But somebody just sent me a message saying, you know, Ryan Seacrest can count 12 million votes at a commercial break.
00:55:44.820 But Arizona is still counting that it really, it's just, it, it's beyond the imagination.
00:55:56.180 How is this even possible?
00:55:57.840 You know, of course, these are the same people story after story of problems.
00:56:02.740 When they went to vote the same day on election day, story after story, major issues.
00:56:13.120 It's, it's so, it's so blatant.
00:56:19.080 And unfortunately, one of the things that it, it accomplishes, one of the things that it really does is it disenfranchises people.
00:56:26.700 Carrie Lake saying, Hey, we are still in the fight.
00:56:30.860 We will not give up.
00:56:33.040 You got to love the fact that she's willing to fight and that she calls it like it is.
00:56:39.240 Hey, Arizona, Carrie Lake here.
00:56:41.140 I wanted to reach out to you to let you know that I am still in this fight with you.
00:56:45.540 For two years, I've been sounding the alarm about our broken election system here in Arizona.
00:56:51.080 And this past week has confirmed everything we've been saying.
00:56:54.660 When we called for Katie Hobbs to recuse herself over a year ago, they ridiculed us.
00:57:00.340 It turns out we were right.
00:57:01.860 The Fox was guarding the hen house.
00:57:03.960 And because of that, voters have been disenfranchised.
00:57:07.700 When we raised concerns and I filed a lawsuit months ago to get rid of the electronic voting machines, they said we were crazy.
00:57:15.900 Well, it turns out we were right.
00:57:17.500 On election day, nearly half of all polling locations had problems with tabulating machines and printers.
00:57:23.740 Malfunctioning tabulation machines forced voters to wait in line for hours to exercise their sacred right to vote.
00:57:31.560 I talked to voters who waited in line for hours.
00:57:34.500 One man told me he went to a location and there was a three-hour line because the tabulators weren't working.
00:57:40.020 He drove 15 miles to another location and the printers weren't working.
00:57:44.480 He drove another 15 miles and was finally able to cast his vote, but he's not sure it counted.
00:57:49.840 Now, how many people just gave up and said, I'm going home?
00:57:53.740 How many people that came, and this is all same day, day of voting, these tend to be more Republican voters and particularly Carrie Lake voters.
00:58:08.240 How many of them were turned away?
00:58:11.120 Story after story after story.
00:58:13.220 There should never be an issue with any of the transparency or accountability when it comes to elections whatsoever.
00:58:23.320 I'm not denying there was an election.
00:58:26.000 Just asking questions.
00:58:27.480 I think we all ought to be able to do that.
00:58:29.720 We can't ask questions anymore.
00:58:31.600 That's a problem.
00:58:33.280 Well, I've got a big question.
00:58:35.220 What the heck is going on in Maricopa County?
00:58:38.520 The Maricopa County recorder, Stephen Richer, has a PAC.
00:58:46.500 It's a political action committee.
00:58:48.080 He's raising money.
00:58:50.580 This guy has a PAC.
00:58:52.400 He's one of the founding members of the partisan PAC that is supporting, basically, never Trumpers.
00:59:02.460 It's an anti-Trump PAC.
00:59:04.120 Now, he claims to be a Republican, probably from the McCain side of things down there.
00:59:10.860 Calls it the pro-democracy Republican PAC.
00:59:16.540 Maricopa County recorder, Stephen Richer, coming under increasing scrutiny after the botched election in Maricopa County,
00:59:24.980 leading some to question his founding and operation of that PAC, the stated mission to support pro-democracy Arizona Republicans
00:59:35.000 who reject conspiracy theorists and demagoguery from candidates who maintain the 2020 presidential election in Arizona was stolen.
00:59:44.780 Well, if you believe that, or if you want to support that, you probably shouldn't be running elections.
00:59:55.840 Is it legal?
00:59:57.860 No.
00:59:58.700 It looks like, for all intents and purposes, maybe it was.
01:00:02.240 Should it be?
01:00:03.380 It's a whole other question.
01:00:04.320 The story of the Arizona Sun-Times brings up the point that at the end of the day, at the very least, it's unethical.
01:00:16.440 At the very least, there should never be a question about our elections.
01:00:23.140 Blood has been spilled.
01:00:24.560 People have died for this right for us to take part in these elections.
01:00:34.640 So we had originally planned on talking to Secretary of State candidate nominee Mark Finch.
01:00:39.840 And we had a hard time getting a hold of him.
01:00:41.540 If we do get him on the phone, we'll get an update on what's happening down there.
01:00:45.540 But the story out of the Arizona Sun-Times says,
01:00:47.840 Well, Richard's PAC claims to support Republicans, it has received money from a man who donates to almost exclusively Democrats.
01:00:58.120 Well, wait a second.
01:00:59.520 Wait a minute here.
01:01:00.540 What?
01:01:03.360 Oh, this is bipartisan.
01:01:06.100 This is non-partisan.
01:01:09.260 Frances Nafaji gave $20,000 to his PAC, $60,000 to the Arizona Democrat Party,
01:01:20.880 and $5,300 to Democrat Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs running for governor.
01:01:28.640 By the way, you talk about an appearance of impropriety.
01:01:33.480 Why is this woman who is the Secretary of State allowed to run the election in which she is running for governor?
01:01:42.400 Now, if it's not against the law, that's one thing.
01:01:45.940 But these folks who claim that there's nothing to see here,
01:01:49.900 and that everyone who thinks that there is is just some wacky tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist,
01:01:57.160 every one of those folks is just a little off in the head, so to speak.
01:02:04.700 She's running her own election.
01:02:06.240 She had the opportunity to step down.
01:02:09.900 But of course, she wouldn't.
01:02:13.700 And they're still counting the votes.
01:02:16.800 Our election officials failed us miserably.
01:02:20.180 What happened to Arizonans on election day is unforgivable.
01:02:23.180 Tens of thousands of Maricopa County voters were disenfranchised.
01:02:28.120 Now, I am busy here collecting evidence and data.
01:02:31.060 Rest assured, I have assembled the best and brightest legal team,
01:02:35.000 and we are exploring every avenue to correct the many wrongs that have been done this past week.
01:02:40.780 I'm doing everything in my power to right these wrongs.
01:02:44.820 My resolve to fight for you is higher than ever.
01:02:48.160 However, this movement started in Arizona, and it quickly expanded to all 50 states.
01:02:54.340 It's a movement of mama bears and papa bears and students and Arizonans who love this country,
01:03:00.620 who want secure borders, who want schools that prepare their children for the real opportunities that are out there.
01:03:07.500 It's a movement of Arizonans who want safe streets once again and want the drug crisis to come to an end.
01:03:13.360 It's a movement of Arizonans who want prosperity and the pursuit of happiness.
01:03:18.200 That movement is stronger than it ever has been.
01:03:22.020 And I can promise you one thing.
01:03:24.440 This fight to save our republic has just begun.
01:03:27.980 I tell you what, she says she's not going anywhere.
01:03:30.340 I love you, Arizona, and I love you, America.
01:03:33.740 I love the fact that Carrie Lake is in the fight, and she won't back down.
01:03:39.660 I love that.
01:03:40.460 But I just, I got to tell you, folks, this is a, this is a tough situation.
01:03:54.420 How do you fix, well, some of the things that are happening behind the scenes we'll talk about.
01:03:58.920 But it's not just in Arizona.
01:04:00.320 There are other places that things are moving, in fact, near the border.
01:04:04.800 We'll get the latest update on that.
01:04:06.560 Should we get Secretary of State candidate Mark Fincham on the line?
01:04:09.100 And we'll get the update from Arizona as well.
01:04:11.600 It's Barkley in for Beck today.
01:04:12.960 We continue on the Glenn Beck program back after this.
01:04:18.120 Stay informed.
01:04:19.660 Sign up for the free newsletter today at glennbeck.com.
01:04:23.280 Yep, it is Barkley back in for Beck today on the Glenn Beck program, 888-727-BECK.
01:04:40.120 That's 888-727-BECK.
01:04:42.920 You can join the program at any time.
01:04:44.960 Lots happening down south in Arizona.
01:04:46.860 We just touched on a few things and updates over the break.
01:04:50.320 But did you see the latest at the border?
01:04:54.800 Kevin McCarthy, who hopes to be the Speaker of the House, has gone down, GOP leader, going down to the border, demanding the resignation of Secretary, Department of Homeland Security, Mayorkas.
01:05:15.560 He says he ought to resign or be impeached.
01:05:20.620 If Secretary Mayorkas does not resign, House Republicans will investigate every order, every action, and every failure.
01:05:32.500 We'll determine whether we can begin impeachment inquiry.
01:05:37.660 Determine whether we turn that a little bit stronger.
01:05:42.720 I would like to say he's, we're going to, you can resign or face impeachment.
01:05:47.640 He's been a complete failure.
01:05:51.980 They tell you over and over again that the border, there's nothing to see here.
01:05:58.020 Everything's fine.
01:06:01.980 Alejandro Mayorkas.
01:06:09.080 The Secretary ought to be impeached.
01:06:15.760 Resign or face impeachment hearings.
01:06:19.480 Those are the choices.
01:06:22.240 Kat McCammack, the representative from Florida, talking down at the border about what she's witnessed.
01:06:30.160 Good afternoon.
01:06:31.480 I proudly represent the Sunshine State, and a lot of people have asked me, what are you doing in Texas?
01:06:37.020 Well, this is not my first border trip.
01:06:38.720 I've been here several times, and every time I think that it's going to get better, it's actually getting worse.
01:06:45.280 See, on my very first trip to the border, I met a nine-year-old little girl.
01:06:50.740 She tried to tell me her name, but she couldn't.
01:06:54.460 Her vocal cords had given out because she was screaming so loud while being raped repeatedly by cartel members.
01:07:02.720 Folks, it's horrific.
01:07:04.620 What is happening on the border, and none of this, none of this is really getting the attention or the coverage that it deserves,
01:07:17.140 is an absolute humanitarian crisis.
01:07:19.880 And the humanitarian crisis, it can be solved.
01:07:25.140 But for political reasons, Democrats, Mayorkas, the rest of it.
01:07:33.000 By the way, the same guy who's colluding with big tech to shut you down and censor you has got the border wide open.
01:07:40.580 Senator Josh Hawley raking him over the coals the other day.
01:07:43.740 Without objection, I'd like to enter this article called The Truth Cops, published in The Intercept.
01:07:51.440 Here's my question, then.
01:07:53.020 If you're not censoring speech, and if you're not treating Americans as domestic terrorists,
01:07:59.760 then why is it that you're pressuring big tech to treat American citizens as if they're threats to the homeland?
01:08:06.880 Why are you pressuring them to censor speech?
01:08:10.000 Let's take a look at some new documents that have come to light that show what your administration is doing,
01:08:15.760 this administration is doing, to censor speech.
01:08:17.680 Let's take a look at this email from July 16th, 2021.
01:08:21.900 It's over my shoulder here.
01:08:23.000 Facebook emailing HHS saying,
01:08:25.660 I know our team's met today to better understand the scope of what the White House expects from us
01:08:31.220 on misinformation going forward.
01:08:33.400 Are you familiar with that email?
01:08:34.720 No.
01:08:35.660 Let's try another one.
01:08:36.640 We all are now, by the way.
01:08:38.200 And guess who else is?
01:08:39.460 Twitter.
01:08:40.120 In fact, Elon Musk has said something very interesting on Twitter.
01:08:46.060 We have it all.
01:08:47.680 What happened here at Twitter is very concerning, and it's all starting to come out.
01:08:55.480 Some good news filled in some of the very strangest times.
01:09:02.200 It looks like the truth, just like it always does, eventually sees the light of day.
01:09:08.480 The truth will set you free.
01:09:11.800 More of it.
01:09:13.280 Barkley in for Beck today on a Beck Friday.
01:09:16.300 Follow me at Twitter and everywhere else, at Mr. Justin Barkley.
01:09:21.440 This is the Glenn Back Program.
01:09:23.380 We've got no room to compromise.
01:09:45.120 We've got to stand together if we're going to survive.
01:09:50.900 Stand up straight and hold the line.
01:09:56.980 Stand up straight and hold the line.
01:09:59.000 It's a new day, I'm trying to rise.
01:10:05.420 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:10:10.420 This is the Glenn Back Program.
01:10:17.380 It is Justin Barkley in for Glenn Back today on a Beck Friday.
01:10:21.520 You're shopping, getting some things done.
01:10:25.260 I'm coming to you from the beautiful and unseasonably warm, at least for this time of year.
01:10:30.720 West Michigan, Grand Rapids, high atop downtown where the sun is shining, and it's always an honor, a privilege to be with you.
01:10:36.940 We're going to tackle some big subjects coming up this hour.
01:10:38.860 We'll check in with our folks down in Arizona, the latest in the election, and down there where they continue to count votes.
01:10:45.440 We'll get that, latest plus talk, ESG and FTX.
01:10:50.580 All these acronyms, they seem pretty benign, but they really ought to be concerning.
01:10:56.380 What's happening with your money?
01:10:57.720 We talk about it after this on the Glenn Back Program.
01:11:00.260 Stand up.
01:11:02.480 Stand up.
01:11:02.700 Stand up.
01:11:03.320 Stand up.
01:11:03.520 Stand up.
01:11:04.100 Stand up.
01:11:04.600 Stand up.
01:11:04.720 Stand up.
01:11:05.100 Stand up.
01:11:08.860 So, all these acronyms really sound pretty, they sound kind of, you know, I don't know, sort of out of touch.
01:11:19.980 They just sound, you know, that simple, but I don't really know.
01:11:22.620 What is ESG?
01:11:23.840 What's an FTX?
01:11:24.880 What are all these different things?
01:11:27.000 We're going to talk about some of these things, but basically, let me boil it down to this.
01:11:30.160 It's your money, and it's how folks can control you and our country.
01:11:35.900 And FTX is a big crypto company that has absolutely crumbled in the last several weeks or so.
01:11:47.940 The corruption has been exposed.
01:11:51.780 The things that were happening behind the scenes continue to come out.
01:11:55.300 We're going to talk about some of those things, including ESG, with a good friend from Michigan here, Congressman Bill Huizinga, Michigan's 4th District.
01:12:03.200 He was just elected.
01:12:04.220 Appreciate you being here with us, Congressman.
01:12:05.620 How are you?
01:12:06.780 Hey, Justin.
01:12:07.520 Good to be with you, and I hope you had a good turkey day.
01:12:09.840 We were so close with the Lions yesterday.
01:12:12.380 Oh, don't even tell me.
01:12:13.820 That was heartbreaking.
01:12:15.140 While we're on heartbreaking issues like ESG and FTX, we'll throw the Lions in on that one.
01:12:20.820 Speaking of heartburn, it's Barkley and Frebeck today, and we are in Michigan, yes.
01:12:26.300 And, you know, we had a little bit of the Lions.
01:12:28.700 We were used to a bit of that.
01:12:31.320 But, look, as you bring up a point, there are some heartbreaking issues.
01:12:35.700 FTX, one of these crazier stories, and you're well-positioned to talk about these things because of the committee that you're on, Congressman.
01:12:43.000 But let's start with FTX and what happened there.
01:12:47.920 It appears now, I don't know, they paint this picture, and it certainly ought to be looked into, and hopefully you'll get some oversight on this.
01:12:54.500 But it appears now that taxpayer money from Americans was sent over Ukraine.
01:13:00.320 In some ways, Ukraine sent money to FTX, and then FTX, this cryptocurrency run by this guy that looks like he's homeless, he's got this crazy hair, this guy named Sam Bankman-Fried, SBF, FTX, ESG, all these acronyms.
01:13:16.400 Anyway, Sam Bankman-Fried then takes the money, and he sends it off to all these Democrats and apparently is funding these campaigns.
01:13:23.460 And, you know, this, at the very least, looks like a complete disaster.
01:13:33.400 Yeah.
01:13:34.000 Yeah, it is.
01:13:35.920 If Enron and Bertie Madoff had a baby, it would be named Sam Bankman-Fried.
01:13:42.680 I mean, this is bad business, but then clearly it looks like an emerging picture of just outright fraud.
01:13:50.060 And, you know, you mentioned the money that SBF, as he's referred to, what he put into the political system, that was $38 million directly into primarily Democrat causes and super PACs.
01:14:08.540 Yeah.
01:14:09.300 That's right behind George Soros.
01:14:11.420 He's the number two Democrat donor behind George Soros.
01:14:15.720 So we're going to be seeing a lot of names emerge.
01:14:20.780 You know, there's been a little bit of a battle between the agriculture sector, which is viewing crypto as a commodity,
01:14:31.900 and our area, which in the financial services realm, views it more as a security.
01:14:39.640 So the Securities and Exchange Commission, led by Gary Gensler, has been trying to get in there.
01:14:45.480 A number of others have.
01:14:46.620 But you're going to be seeing some names emerge, including, I believe, a prominent senator from our home state of Michigan,
01:14:53.660 who happened to be the chair of the Ag Committee, who were very big beneficiaries from this.
01:14:59.740 But this is it's unfortunate because the technology that lies below crypto, this blockchain technology, is the technology of the future.
01:15:12.300 What Sam Bankman-Fried did is set back any acceptance into that.
01:15:18.660 And frankly, it's, I think, going to be a bigger call for more governmental regulation in a space that has been fighting to have as light a touch as possible.
01:15:28.300 But, you know, this is just outright fraud and would be illegal whether there was regulation or not.
01:15:33.500 And speaking of which, you know, obviously these, the corruption that looks like took place here.
01:15:40.760 I mean, there are pictures of video and whatnot of, you know, Congresswoman Maxine Waters blowing kisses to this guy.
01:15:47.060 There's a list of donors and folks who he donated to.
01:15:50.580 I mean, these are stories that people are going to continue to hear about.
01:15:54.080 But hopefully you get some oversight on this and break down and hold these people accountable.
01:15:58.500 The next thing is ESG.
01:16:00.140 And honestly, Glenn has touched on this quite a bit.
01:16:03.820 He's been fighting this battle to tell people what's going on and how they can fight back.
01:16:11.680 But ESG, if we can break this down, it's a scoring system that right now companies and financial institutions and eventually people are going to get scored on this, too.
01:16:25.140 They're already looking at some of these sort of pilot programs.
01:16:29.780 You get sort of a new credit score and the scoring system is all based on things that have really nothing to do with performance or it's all based on social, environmental, and then what governance.
01:16:45.540 It's all social justice and things like that.
01:16:49.600 Can you break this down and give people a little bit of a glimpse at what you're dealing with there?
01:16:55.480 Yeah.
01:16:55.720 And first and foremost, I do want to give a shout out to Glenn Beck for doing this as well.
01:16:59.480 I found myself in the car during the campaign, driving around, listening to him yelling, yes, yes, as he was talking about it on radio, because this is sort of that sneaky Pete issue that's been coming in that is going to have a massive impact on all of our lives.
01:17:17.320 In fact, on Tuesday, the Department of Labor just came out and finalized a rule saying that pension funds, your 401ks and others really don't have to be so worried about a return or materiality anymore,
01:17:31.420 because they're now going to factor in this environmental and social and governance matrix that, as you point out, is really all about control
01:17:44.940 and about how we how we how we bend society and and and and the economy into the will of of the government.
01:17:54.200 And, you know, the watchword in investing has always been materiality, materiality, materiality, meaning that is this issue material to you as an investor?
01:18:08.160 And and and and what what what the Securities and Exchange Commission has done now and now what the Department of Labor has done has set all of that aside.
01:18:18.980 And it really is more about the environment, but not just the environment.
01:18:23.900 It's also diversity and inclusion.
01:18:26.800 And that's the social and the governance side of this.
01:18:30.620 And this is this is going to be huge.
01:18:33.740 And it will literally certainly in the short run have an impact on returns and investment.
01:18:40.800 If you have people pulling out of energy companies, for example, who are having some having some record returns,
01:18:48.280 you know, this this could have a very detrimental long term effect as well, which means you're going to have to work longer.
01:18:56.040 And and and before you can retire, if you're not getting the kind of return and the kind of, you know, benefit off of your investments.
01:19:05.780 Congressman Bill Huizinga with us right now out of Michigan and Congressman ESG, as you mentioned,
01:19:11.600 will completely flip everything upside down from meritocracy, merit based.
01:19:17.260 Hey, you're going to perform.
01:19:18.820 You're you're you're going to perform.
01:19:20.440 We're going to see how well you do in the marketplace, too.
01:19:22.760 We really have our fingers on the levers and pulling the strings of every area of life.
01:19:30.940 It's a way of centralizing control in a lot of ways.
01:19:33.760 And this is very scary because this will cripple this country and particularly small businesses.
01:19:41.680 This is the backbone of this this nation, because in order to do business with other businesses, you'll have to dance to whatever tune.
01:19:52.040 I saw Biden wants to sit a billion dollars in reparations over the climate.
01:19:56.240 China is not getting involved in this.
01:19:57.920 But, you know, oh, are you green?
01:19:59.960 Is your business green?
01:20:01.360 Are you socially?
01:20:02.920 Are you are you?
01:20:03.620 Is your rainbow flag flying outside your door?
01:20:05.720 Are you doing all the are you checking out all the boxes that you need to everything you got to dance to through the jump through the hoops in order to get your score up?
01:20:13.680 Because otherwise, if not, suppliers won't deal with you because their score will be affected.
01:20:18.180 And this will crush the economy here in America and the little guy.
01:20:23.080 Yeah.
01:20:23.580 By the way, FTX, going back to that first question, FTX had one of the highest ESG scores out there.
01:20:30.480 Of course they did.
01:20:32.040 It's of course it's all a farce.
01:20:34.700 Yeah, it is.
01:20:35.920 That's it, Justin.
01:20:36.980 Let me give you a very specific example that I think everybody listening will will be able to relate to.
01:20:42.500 All right.
01:20:43.000 Securities and Exchange Commission has said, you know, we have to be so worried about the environment that we are going to not only require companies to report their scope one and scope two environmental emissions,
01:20:56.300 which means what what did they directly produce and what has been been used to deliver their products and that kind of thing.
01:21:05.260 Right. Totally makes sense for an energy company, a power company, something like that.
01:21:09.840 They want what's called scope three.
01:21:12.960 Now, the scope three is then all of the suppliers to those companies that are producing this this energy or this product.
01:21:22.680 All right.
01:21:23.240 So that doesn't even have to be energy.
01:21:24.460 So here's the here's the specific example.
01:21:27.120 Gerber baby food.
01:21:28.180 Gerber baby food happens to be headquartered in my current district in Fremont, Michigan.
01:21:33.920 Gerber is owned by Nestle.
01:21:35.800 Right.
01:21:36.100 Big international corporation publicly traded.
01:21:38.780 So Nestle is going to be required if these rules go through to go not only to, you know, their their look at their own footprint,
01:21:48.060 which could be literally delivery vehicles and all the other things that they have to do.
01:21:52.520 But who then is taking their product out and delivering it to the stores?
01:21:56.380 What is their environmental footprint?
01:21:57.980 But, oh, wait, under scope three, you have to actually go back to the farmers who are producing the key, the carrots and the peas and the corn that go into the baby food jars to have them figure out what their environmental impact is,
01:22:14.060 not just on their fuel use, but it could be their fertilizers, all those things.
01:22:18.960 And as one of these guys said to me, he said, compliance department, you're looking at it.
01:22:24.660 Right. I mean, these are small, independent, family owned farms that are now suddenly getting caught up into this massive movement and it's going to have a huge effect.
01:22:36.200 Congressman Bill Huizinga, you mentioned, and this this is something that will dramatically transform life as you know it here in America if we don't stop it.
01:22:46.960 What do you recommend? What can people do?
01:22:48.900 I mean, does it work when people call their congressman?
01:22:51.960 Yeah, it does. I mean, don't give up on that, even if it's as hard headed as they sometimes may feel like that.
01:23:00.660 That does affect people. All right. And and and the staff be reasonable, but talk to them.
01:23:06.980 And you also need to be talking to your investment advisors. Right.
01:23:10.520 Whether it's whether you're in a I don't care if you're in a union pension.
01:23:14.620 I don't care if it's a 401k or whether you're doing something independently.
01:23:19.780 Talk to talk to your investment advisors to say, hey, how how can our voice and our message get get through on this?
01:23:27.240 Because it should be about return.
01:23:29.400 How do you maximize return for that investment?
01:23:32.880 Not just about all this other stuff, the E, the S and the G that that the government's talking about.
01:23:39.660 So people have got to have their voices be heard on this.
01:23:42.740 And that's why I'm glad Glenn has been talking about this, because it needs to get volume.
01:23:47.400 Volume, both this one goes to 11, like crank it up, but also the amount of communication that that policymakers have in and and the both the Department of Labor and the Securities and Exchange Commission have had comment periods.
01:24:02.780 And so if people are really wonky and want to go in and do that, that's another way of getting their voice to be heard.
01:24:08.220 Congressman Bill Heisman, fighting the good fight. Appreciate you talking with us and taking some time today on the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:13.520 Justin, thanks. Appreciate it.
01:24:15.040 Happy Thanksgiving. Talk to you soon.
01:24:16.620 Yeah, folks, we continue the fight. What else can you do?
01:24:18.880 Glenn's got a couple of tips. We'll get into that after this.
01:24:21.160 Barkley in for back today on the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:25.660 Some of the things that Glenn has talked about when it comes to ESG scores and how to fight back.
01:24:35.440 Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:37.800 I agree with a lot of this.
01:24:40.100 First of all, is not. You have to make people aware.
01:24:42.900 So you've got to continue.
01:24:43.580 When this podcast goes live and it will go up wherever you get your podcasts, the Glenn Beck program or glennbeck.com.
01:24:49.840 Take it. Take a little piece of this.
01:24:51.600 Share it with the friends, relatives, family.
01:24:53.240 Make sure that they know.
01:24:54.960 You've got to make sure that folks are aware and that they understand what is at stake and what we're facing.
01:25:02.420 Put your money in a local bank, Glenn Beck says.
01:25:05.780 Why is that important?
01:25:09.040 Well, all these other big banks, they're kind of really in line with each other.
01:25:13.300 They want these ESG scores.
01:25:14.960 It looks like they're pushing them in some ways or they're falling in line.
01:25:18.980 But if your money is in a local bank or a local credit union, then you know where it is.
01:25:23.120 You know what they're doing with it.
01:25:24.700 You can have conversations.
01:25:25.960 The truth, the answer is decentralization.
01:25:28.440 Whether it comes to questions about election integrity or elections, are they on the up and up or not?
01:25:33.820 Well, the truth is, is that that's all about centralization of power.
01:25:39.040 We've got to get away from, you know, the Washington, D.C. running things or some Bond villain lookalike out of Davos or somewhere else.
01:25:48.480 So get right back to where folks are making decisions in your own backyard, not places and far off places and by people you'll never meet who have never met you and never been to where you live.
01:26:02.520 This is all reasonable.
01:26:04.160 This is all common sense, what we're talking about here.
01:26:06.580 This is nothing new.
01:26:10.060 You and I ought to have the opportunity to make decisions for ourselves and our families.
01:26:13.460 Not some other way around where somebody else is looking down from their ivory tower, shouting down at his peasants.
01:26:25.220 That's not how it works.
01:26:28.100 So put your money in a local bank.
01:26:30.920 Like chairs where everybody knows you walk in, you know the people behind the counter.
01:26:36.940 Stop doing businesses with corporations that support ESG.
01:26:41.080 And here's another piece of that.
01:26:42.800 It's not just doing businesses with folks.
01:26:45.220 Make sure you let them know that you intend to stop doing business because of their practices and how they support this ESG nonsense.
01:26:55.600 And then Congressman just mentioned it, but these pension funds or where your money is invested, have conversations with those people.
01:27:06.520 The people that are doing the investing, you have conversations with them, you tell them you don't want your money in any of these funds or supporting any of this ESG nonsense.
01:27:19.940 You've got to get educated though.
01:27:21.360 We all have to.
01:27:22.280 Listen, we're always in reactive mode.
01:27:25.020 We've got to get ahead of it and we've got to be proactive.
01:27:31.940 There's still a chance to stop this stuff.
01:27:35.900 We've got to get in the ball game now.
01:27:37.740 Listen, I just had about a month.
01:27:41.940 Well, three weeks ago, our little baby girl, our second was born.
01:27:46.240 I got two daughters now.
01:27:48.620 She's absolutely perfect.
01:27:49.660 But our kids, it's for them and our grandkids.
01:27:55.060 It's for their future.
01:27:57.460 It's not just about how you and I are going to be able to live out our lives or retirement or whatever any of that looks like down the road.
01:28:05.400 It's about making sure that we leave them a country that even halfway resembles what this nation was and is the greatness, the restoration.
01:28:25.560 Oh, it's possible.
01:28:31.320 But together, we must stand up and we must fight.
01:28:35.640 And we'll go down to Arizona where they're doing just that.
01:28:38.520 Secretary of State candidate Mark Fincham is on the line.
01:28:42.120 We're talking to him about the latest in Arizona after this.
01:28:45.740 It's Barclay, Justin Barclay, in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:55.560 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:29:01.400 What the heck is happening in Arizona?
01:29:06.720 Specifically, Maricopa County.
01:29:08.520 It's Justin Barclay, in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:29:10.960 To answer that question, we decided to go straight to Arizona, straight to the source, and see if we could figure this out.
01:29:18.300 Here's one man who said that he's been voting for 30 years in Arizona, and he just went to check the stout of his ballot, and they said he didn't vote.
01:29:28.040 He can't figure it out.
01:29:29.740 Hi.
01:29:30.560 I've been a resident of Arizona for 30 years.
01:29:33.940 I've been a lifelong registered Republican.
01:29:36.480 I voted in every election, primaries and regular.
01:29:40.180 I voted on Tuesday morning at the polling place.
01:29:45.160 Everything seems to go fine.
01:29:46.400 I go online, and the Maricopa County reporter's office says I didn't vote.
01:29:50.820 Yeah.
01:29:51.640 What?
01:29:52.680 By the way, he's not the only one.
01:29:54.560 There were so many issues in Maricopa County, specifically, but all throughout the state.
01:30:00.900 What the heck is going on there?
01:30:02.240 Joining us right now is a candidate for Secretary of State in Arizona, Arizona State Rep. Mark Finch.
01:30:09.760 I appreciate you being here with us today.
01:30:11.300 How are you, Mark?
01:30:12.640 I'm good, Justin.
01:30:13.660 Thank you for having me on the show.
01:30:15.420 Yeah, this is Arizona has turned into a steaming garbage heap of an election.
01:30:21.940 It's not just Maricopa County.
01:30:23.480 In fact, there's video that came out a couple of days ago of an elections worker in Pima County
01:30:31.000 with boxes of ballots that they're running through a tabulator, and the video was just starkly reminiscent of Georgia, Fulton County,
01:30:43.240 where they kept swapping things back and forth and counting things over and over and over again.
01:30:47.720 So, and then, of course, we've got Apache County where suddenly they have a significant increase in voters.
01:30:55.940 Just they need to have more time to count votes.
01:30:58.960 Okay.
01:30:59.180 This is one of the smaller counties in the state, and they need more time than Maricopa County.
01:31:04.340 Sure.
01:31:05.340 Yeah.
01:31:05.660 I'm not buying that one.
01:31:06.620 Are they still counting, Mark?
01:31:10.600 Are they still counting in different counties in Arizona?
01:31:13.360 Well, last I knew, there are a couple of counties that are still counting what are called provisional ballots.
01:31:22.140 Those are ballots where somebody said, I haven't voted yet, but the polls say they have.
01:31:27.300 I mean, we've got, there's so many different elements to this that it would take two hours to explain it to you.
01:31:33.740 So I'll try and be really brief.
01:31:35.740 I understand.
01:31:36.980 So the piece that you just played, we have hundreds of people who are making the same assertion.
01:31:44.360 I've seen them.
01:31:44.940 So to your listeners, if you are an Arizona voter and you're being told that you didn't vote, you go up and you can check most of the counties.
01:31:54.160 You can go up and check to make sure that your ballot has been received and counted.
01:31:58.320 And if you're one of those people like this gentleman that you just paid, played the clip of, I need to hear from you because that is a violation of HAVA, which is the Help America Vote Act.
01:32:09.180 And that is a clear disenfranchisement of a voter.
01:32:12.720 Yeah.
01:32:13.200 And I would love to hear from you at mark at votefincham.com because we probably will be helping people get connected with an attorney that can file a class action lawsuit for that.
01:32:25.180 Mark, what about these people who went on election day and were told that their vote, well, it didn't go through the machine or they were told to go somewhere else or they just waited in line hours.
01:32:37.400 I mean, on election day, these issues, some of the things that I've seen and heard in the videos, I mean, it's just I can't imagine that in America.
01:32:46.420 Mark, somebody told me earlier, you know, Orion Seacrest can count 12 million votes on American Isle during the commercial break, but we can't get it together to get these votes counted on election day like this.
01:32:56.780 It's either just complete incompetence like we've never seen on a scale ever before in the history of this country, or it's intentional.
01:33:05.040 And neither one is good.
01:33:06.880 Let me lay out the theory of the case for you, Justin.
01:33:09.100 There were no problems with early voting.
01:33:12.180 So we actually have election month, not election day here, which that in itself is a massive problem.
01:33:19.340 But people, you know, vote by mail has become ensconced in Arizona.
01:33:23.780 In fact, 80% of the voting I used to vote by mail did for, I think, 20 some elections until I realized that the chain of custody for the ballots is broken the minute I let go of it.
01:33:34.880 And it goes to somebody else other than an election official.
01:33:37.340 So, and of course, the Guardian wanted to make a big deal out of that.
01:33:41.120 It's like, hey, only an imbecile would continue to do something that they realize is a problem.
01:33:45.680 But we've got all of the early voting.
01:33:49.000 They had zero problems with tabulation of those ballots.
01:33:52.660 Now, keep in mind, that is predominantly Democrat voters.
01:33:58.420 Most Republican voters vote the day of the election.
01:34:01.840 And they go to the polls and whether they have a mail-in ballot or they go to the polls and they get an on-demand printed ballot, most Republicans go to the polls.
01:34:10.220 Suddenly, on election day, the tabulation equipment goes down.
01:34:14.980 It's either not working.
01:34:16.120 It's not recording votes.
01:34:18.180 I've talked to some people that had to put their ballot in two different machines, as many as 15, 20 times.
01:34:23.860 And finally, they were told, oh, you're going to have to put it in drawer three and we'll count it later.
01:34:29.280 Well, keep in mind, that creates a queue of people that are waiting three, four, five hours to vote.
01:34:36.940 And finally, you know, folks are just like, I can't wait anymore.
01:34:40.580 I've got to go back to work or whatever their issue is.
01:34:43.840 So we know that there are tens of thousands, because this happened at 60-some percent of the voting centers.
01:34:52.340 And it cropped its head up at like 8.30 in the morning.
01:34:55.260 How do you open the polls at 7 o'clock in the morning and at 8.30, you've run out of toner for the printers?
01:35:00.420 It's unthinkable.
01:35:03.540 That's massive incompetence, at least.
01:35:05.840 But I think there is growing evidence that this was a planned event.
01:35:11.620 And, yeah, I'm going to say it.
01:35:12.780 I think that this whole thing was planned to suppress the, quote, MAGA vote, you know, make America great again.
01:35:21.400 I don't know why people have a problem with that.
01:35:23.000 Even Republicans here in the state of Arizona have a problem with that.
01:35:26.160 In fact, Stephen Richard, the Maricopa County recorder, a Republican, allegedly, Bill Gates, Maricopa County supervisor in charge of elections, a Republican, or so he claims, both of them formed a PAC in 2021 to see to it that, quote, MAGA candidates were hampered from making it through the election.
01:35:50.040 Tell me that there isn't some kind of bias, that there isn't a foam on the scale of election fairness there.
01:35:57.220 I don't understand that.
01:35:58.880 And I can't understand how Katie Hobbs is allowed to run this election in which she's competing for governor.
01:36:06.840 I mean, it's unthinkable.
01:36:09.360 Well, and many of the things that were reported, she should have been all over.
01:36:15.240 Instead, she was silent.
01:36:17.680 And now I've got to, I can't confirm this, but I'm told through the grapevine that her staff has been scrambling to put together a transition team because they had no idea that they would win.
01:36:29.160 Okay, so there's some things, some anomalies in this that it's certain, guaranteed certain, that this was a fraud of an election and we will be going to court and we have to wait until the case is what they call ripe.
01:36:48.540 So until Maricopa County and some of the other counties certify their election, we can't go to court because the best we could do is a stay to keep them from counting and certifying the election.
01:37:01.620 Well, all that does is make this a very protracted thing.
01:37:04.680 So we want them to certify because then we can go into court and say, okay, you've certified an uncertifiable election.
01:37:11.980 The election in Maricopa County is irredeemably compromised because of the disenfranchisement of tens of thousands of voters.
01:37:21.220 And we don't even know how many people, because think about this, you send your ballot to the county and you expect that they're going to do what they're charged to do.
01:37:31.160 The fact that the gentleman you played at the opening of this segment just happened to go up and take a look, how many people don't even think to go do that?
01:37:43.220 They just trusted that the government did its job.
01:37:48.160 So I'm very concerned about this.
01:37:51.260 And, you know, if you've got an Arizona voter listening to this thing, they need to validate whether or not their ballot was received and counted.
01:37:58.060 That's probably the biggest piece of advice I can give folks right now.
01:38:02.140 And if it wasn't, if you mailed one in or you went in person and your record, particularly in Maricopa County, is not showing that you cast a vote, we need to hear from you because you can be part of a class action suit.
01:38:16.420 Mark, how can folks stay in touch with you or find out more about what's happening in Arizona, particularly stay plugged in on this?
01:38:25.380 There's a couple of ways.
01:38:26.340 One, they can go to votefincham.com.
01:38:28.640 That's V-O-T-E, F like Frank, I-N like Nancy, C-H-E-M like Mark.com.
01:38:36.980 If they click on the News tab, we're trying to curate all of the news that's coming in, but there are so many developments that are going fast and furious.
01:38:44.780 The other thing they can do, obviously listen to this program, but check out Gateway Pundit and Western Journal.
01:38:51.160 Those are two organizations that are covering this like ugly on an ape.
01:38:54.480 So, and the legacy media, they're not going to cover this because they're perfectly happy with the idea that Arizona is a, quote, allegedly blue state.
01:39:04.360 I'm here to tell you it's not.
01:39:06.580 And what has happened here is a terrible assault on suffrage.
01:39:11.420 The other thing folks can do, if they want to contact me directly, they can just send an email to Mark, that's M-A-R-K, at votefincham.com.
01:39:20.240 Now, we are trying to raise money for litigation, so there's a donate button on that website.
01:39:24.460 If people want to help us out, we would appreciate it.
01:39:27.580 But Arizona is ground zero for turning the tide on election fraud, and that's what this is.
01:39:32.940 It's a massive fraud.
01:39:34.080 But I cannot believe that this was unintentional.
01:39:38.560 Either way, it's not a pretty picture.
01:39:43.000 Intentional or irresponsible, I don't know the best word for it.
01:39:48.420 It's something.
01:39:49.480 Mark, thank you so much for taking the time to join us, the Secretary of State candidate in Arizona, Mark Fitchum, the Arizona State Rep.
01:39:56.300 Thank you, my friend.
01:39:57.880 Thank you, Justin.
01:39:58.620 Have a great day.
01:39:59.480 You too.
01:39:59.920 God bless.
01:40:00.380 Folks, I got to tell you, it's stuff like this that is continually, especially for the election denier crowd, nobody's denying their election.
01:40:17.340 I don't know that you could call this an election, although at this point, nobody's denying their election.
01:40:22.220 But boy, we got some questions.
01:40:24.400 You know what?
01:40:25.680 In Arizona, they got some explaining to do, don't they?
01:40:28.540 Particularly in Maricopa County.
01:40:31.120 More explaining from folks like Fauci coming up in just a bit.
01:40:34.840 We'll take a quick break, and we're back on the Glenn Beck Program after this.
01:40:37.860 It's Barclay in for Beck.
01:40:39.960 Stand up!
01:40:41.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:40:43.420 So much, so much to get through.
01:40:53.620 Never enough time filling in for Glenn Beck today in the Glenn Beck Program.
01:40:57.060 It's Justin Barclay.
01:40:57.860 Appreciate you being here today on a Beck Friday.
01:41:02.000 Justin Barclay, B-A-R-C-L-A-Y, justinbarclay.com.
01:41:06.080 Love to stay in touch with you.
01:41:07.260 But before we get out of here, there are some Tony Fauci pieces.
01:41:14.380 There's some Fauci news, and I like to call this a Rona report, and a little bad medicine.
01:41:20.380 But Fauci, before everything kicked off in the Thanksgiving festivities, he held, I don't
01:41:25.080 know if you saw this, it was the last big hurrah at the White House.
01:41:30.720 The last big press conference, and he was again.
01:41:38.440 Yeah, I saw this news trending the other day, and I had to check the date.
01:41:43.720 Wait a minute.
01:41:44.140 Is this real?
01:41:44.920 Is this new?
01:41:46.080 No, he was telling people that should go get tested and boosted and mask 2022 for Thanksgiving.
01:41:54.040 First of all, everybody should be vaccinated and boosted with flu and with COVID.
01:41:59.020 Whether or not you wear a mask, or another thing we shouldn't underestimate is testing.
01:42:06.040 So when we're gathering at a family gathering for Thanksgiving or for Christmas or for any
01:42:12.540 other holiday as we get into the winter, it makes sense that you might want to get a test
01:42:17.620 that day before you come into a place.
01:42:20.860 Test.
01:42:21.540 You might want to go get a test before you come in, you know, to meet your family and have
01:42:27.980 the Thanksgiving.
01:42:29.020 And eat the turkey.
01:42:31.160 I'm not the only turkey this year.
01:42:34.640 Don't forget, as we say farewell, Fauci, you're fired.
01:42:40.360 And don't forget, as we say farewell to Fauci, that the man once said, I am the science.
01:42:46.400 And by the way, how about the Rona report from the high priest of health, St. Anthony of
01:42:53.200 Wuhan, telling people that you're going to go out and get jabbed.
01:42:57.720 Because if you don't get your 17th booster or whatever they're on now, listen, whatever
01:43:01.680 you choose to do is your thing.
01:43:03.000 But if you don't get to 17th, well, you're the real danger.
01:43:07.320 In fact, if you haven't been boosted or jabbed at all, you're the real problem, he said.
01:43:13.280 And unfortunately, or fortunately, however you look at this, vaccinated Americans, a headline
01:43:20.520 from Fox News, a majority of COVID deaths for the first time in August.
01:43:24.640 58% of COVID deaths were jabbed.
01:43:28.760 The number is still climbing.
01:43:30.880 China has record COVID numbers in a country.
01:43:33.600 They had a zero COVID policy.
01:43:37.700 Zero COVID.
01:43:39.200 Many of the people there have never even been exposed.
01:43:44.080 They've never even been exposed to it.
01:43:46.300 So who knows what happens there?
01:43:50.900 And I've been following Eric Schmidt.
01:43:53.380 If you haven't seen on Twitter, he's been tweeting some great things.
01:43:58.320 One thing in particular he just tweeted was Fauci.
01:44:02.520 Psaki and the rest of them, they all had to be deposed the other day for this lawsuit.
01:44:07.540 The attorney's general from several states.
01:44:10.000 Fauci deposition tidbit.
01:44:11.140 In February 20, he emailed a friend advising her masks were ineffective.
01:44:16.120 Confirmed again on March 31st.
01:44:18.200 Then on April 3rd, he's adamant masks should be worn.
01:44:22.040 Even though he couldn't cite a single study to prove it.
01:44:24.960 Mandates followed.
01:44:25.980 Lives ruined, he said.
01:44:27.020 But the good news, Fauci is done.
01:44:31.780 Gone.
01:44:33.280 Fired.
01:44:34.720 Follow me for more good news.
01:44:36.200 I've got a good news letter.
01:44:37.360 I'd love to send you things that may put a smile on your face
01:44:40.640 and keep up with you after all.
