On today's show, Glenn Beck talks about the latest in the Stu Biden case, Bigfoot, Fatcon, and the Biden crime family. Plus, a new product from Jace Medical, and more!
00:32:12.640If you seriously re-elect Fetterman, re-elect Feinstein, McConnell, Biden, how is Biden even a serious consideration for anyone?
00:32:28.780How is the greatest nation, the most powerful nation on earth, have a senile president, and the person that, if he dies or is taken out of office, is replaced by a complete and total idiot?
00:37:24.140This foundation, in the line of duty programs, the Gold Star, Fallen First Responders, Smart Home, Veterans, Homeless programs, are all dedicated to honoring our nation's heroes and their families.
00:37:39.360And their Never Forget program engages people in 9-11 remembrance across America.
00:37:45.340They host over 80 runs and walks and climbs per year to raise money.
00:37:50.140They've done dozens of golfing outings and barbecues.
00:37:55.520And they work to educate kids of all ages to help our nation never forget what happened on that day.
00:38:01.680More than 95 cents of every dollar they raise goes directly into the program, directly to the recipients.
00:41:50.920It's amazing how quickly the world has changed.
00:41:53.780Russia recently stopped a massive grain deal, pretty much guaranteeing that the world's food supply will be diminished.
00:42:00.420And that's just one of the issues that our world is facing.
00:42:04.800Don't be caught unprepared for what is lying ahead.
00:42:09.220That means you need a proper supply of emergency food on hand before disaster strikes.
00:42:14.920You'll breathe easier knowing that you can feed your family in a crisis and you don't have to worry about the fragile nature of food supply.
00:42:21.720I'm going to recommend my Patriot Supply.
00:42:24.720I've used my Patriot Supply to prepare my family for years.
00:43:56.640I mean, every day our Justice Department proves they are an enemy to the American people.
00:44:07.920Prosecutors from the Justice Department told Judge Lewis Kaplan that they were dropping the charge of conspiracy to make unlawful campaign contributions
00:44:18.760because they had failed to obtain permission from the government of the Bahamas for that charge.
00:49:11.380And then there are the ones that run directly towards the politicians, usually because the politicians are involved.
00:49:17.380And I think about the 1MDB sovereign debt scandal that happened over Malaysia as an example of that.
00:49:23.900So what happened here is that you had these prosecutors who brought Beckman Freed up on all charges.
00:49:32.160He was in the Bahamas at the time that he was charged, and the U.S. signed an extradition treaty with the Bahamas.
00:49:38.440Now, obviously, the U.S. has a lot of leverage over the Bahamas, right?
00:49:42.980If you want the Bahamas to turn somebody over, it's not really that challenging to do it.
00:49:49.800So this is the second time that they have dropped a charge, and both of them are related, in my opinion.
00:49:57.600The first one was the violating anti-bribery statutes, right?
00:50:02.420And the second is these campaign finance charges.
00:50:06.300And if you think about that, they say, oh, well, that wasn't part of the extradition treaty.
00:50:12.440Okay, but again, the U.S. has massive leverage over the Bahamas.
00:50:17.400If this is something that you wanted to either be in the treaty to start with or you wanted to pursue, this is not a difficult thing.
00:50:25.020The issue is that there's a lot at stake.
00:50:27.840It would open up a huge, deep dive into where all of this money went, how it was used, if there was potentially any money laundering that was involved.
00:50:38.120Clearly, a trail, a deep dive that a lot of very well-connected people who got this money didn't want to have happen.
00:50:46.660And then there potentially would be a renewed call for the politicians to return the money.
00:50:54.500And, you know, just kind of a look into what's happening with, you know, all these offshore accounts that allegedly Beckman-Fried was setting up and involved in.
00:51:06.220So this is, you know, if you believe in the simplest answer is the right answer here.
00:51:12.240The fact that you had both bribery and finance charges, it's because of his cozy nature with the politicians
00:51:18.140and the fact that they were all involved in this at, you know, various different levels, and they don't want that information coming out.
00:51:26.820So, Carol, I look at the billions, hundreds of billions of dollars that we are sending to Ukraine.
00:51:35.120And we know now, I mean, most people aren't talking about this, and I don't know why, but on Wednesday in front of the judge,
00:51:44.280Hunter Biden said, yes, okay, I did take money from China.
00:51:49.740So all of the lies of the past that we knew were lies, at least anyone who's paying attention, now been confirmed.
00:51:59.220He took money from Ukraine as well, and this is a country we're sending hundreds of billions of dollars toward, and there's no oversight.
00:52:12.640It is almost as if the biggest heist is happening right under our noses, and we see it, but we're not doing anything about it.
00:52:24.160I think there's a very good chance that this was all just money laundering and putting this money.
00:52:32.400Do you know how much of the world you could change with $100 million?
00:52:38.300Can you imagine what you could change with a billion dollars?
00:52:42.700I mean, all of this untracked or untraceable all over the world, who's getting all this money?
00:52:51.100You mean to tell me you don't think that Hunter Biden, as a renaissance man, that his amazing discretion makes him highly sought after to sit on international boards and lead international meetings?
00:53:04.880Oh, and by the way, to be an amazing painter that commands six figures for his paintings.
00:53:48.720And now we have a guy who we know was taking other people's money and sending it to politicians and donating it in ways that are highly illegal, and nobody's going to look into it.
00:54:04.260I mean, it's very hard not to be a conspiracy theorist and say, they're all in on a money-laundering thing.
00:54:19.100Yeah, and again, allegedly, it seems that to be a realistic outcome, because how could it not?
00:54:26.580And when you look at how hard they've been going after President Trump, from the time that he came down that elevator to announce his presidency, to yesterday, and all of the things that they, you know, these little things, many of them made up that they were going after, all the while doing many of the same things that they're accusing him of doing, or much worse.
00:54:51.780It's beyond a two-tier system of justice.
00:54:56.920It's, you know, if you are with us, you are going to benefit, we're going to find a way to move this money around and get everybody paid.
00:55:05.220And, you know, I've always said that Congress is a place where you legally launder money, so this could be a legal laundering of it.
00:55:12.900But, see, clearly, people are getting paid in a way that, you know, our government was not set up to make sure that they were getting paid.
00:55:29.780The rest of the charges, is he going away for a very long time?
00:55:34.300You know, I guess it depends on who he knows and what they want to come out and what they don't want to come out.
00:55:43.820I mean, if you think about, you know, back in December of 2022, Maxine Waters, who previously was blowing kisses at Sam Bankman-Fried in a hearing on crypto,
00:55:55.720she put out that tweet about, oh, you know, you've been so candid in your discussions, and we're so happy that you talked to the public.
00:56:02.980I mean, when does somebody in Congress ever do something like that?
00:56:08.820I mean, it's just so blatant and so bizarre.
00:56:12.140So, he's clearly incredibly well-tied, and there's something much deeper going on here.
00:56:18.560So, whether he gets off, whether he gets disappeared, whether the camera in his jail cell stops working, like, you know, so many others, Glenn, or not,
00:56:28.820I think, depends on the level of what has happened behind the scenes.
01:00:59.560Why are things, you know, better than expected?
01:01:02.360And I think there are a couple of reasons why.
01:01:05.120If you look at consumer spending, consumer spending, while it has grown over a sort of a zero base point,
01:01:13.740it's definitely contracting, particularly on the good side, massively on the good side, a little bit still on the services side.
01:01:21.340There's been so much pent-up demand for things like eating out and travel, you know, since the COVID period that people haven't sort of run through that.
01:01:31.440But because people still have their jobs, they feel okay in doing things that are what I call are causing a personal recession.
01:01:53.460Second, obviously, government spending.
01:01:56.960The government has been, even though the Fed is trying to get them to stop spending, not only directly are they propping up, you know, the GDP,
01:02:07.200but also a lot of the incentive programs that they have created through their policy has had business investment continue to grow.
01:02:17.240So when we thought, okay, interest rates are going up, it's more expensive for companies, A, they had locked in low cost of capital from 15 years of near zero interest rate policies.
01:02:28.120But also there's certain industries that the government's picking winners and losers, and they're saying, oh, well, you'll get an incentive if, you know, you buy your electric vehicle or whatnot.
01:02:40.160So I think that this is kind of this interim lag period where you're saying, okay, everybody's still, like, doing everything they can, squeezing every quarter that they can out to hold up this economy.
01:02:53.980But between the lag time of having so much, like, such a long duration of this crazy monetary policy and the fact that these Fed hikes take a while to work their way through the economy,
01:03:07.340it doesn't mean that we're out of the woods.
01:03:10.300And I think that's the important thing.
01:03:11.860I think people get complacent when they see something like this and go, okay, well, you know, we're going to get this off landing.
01:04:51.040Wouldn't it be nice when your check engine light comes on, you didn't have to immediately panic.
01:04:55.860Wouldn't it be great you had the peace of mind to take your car to the mechanic without thinking you're going to have to take out a second mortgage to pay for whatever the repair is.
01:05:04.500The warranty you have when you bought the car is only good for so long.
01:05:09.220After all, you know, you've had it and you've been driving it and you know what happens after the warranty expires.
01:05:16.060That's when all the trouble happens, or at least it seems that way.
01:06:51.980Thought maybe it was lactose intolerance or, you know, allergic to gluten or whatever.
01:06:55.900Come December, the pain is so bad that he goes to the emergency room at the VA center and he's sent home with pain medication, but no real answers.
01:07:06.460The pain got worse and worse and Joe went back to the emergency room.
01:07:10.160They found then a mass on his pancreas.
01:07:13.800The VA did a test, told him it was cancer.
01:07:18.140Then they called back four days later and said, oh, no, you know what?
01:09:42.340Um, and, um, you know, we prayed a lot and talked a lot and we said, well, why don't we do both?
01:09:51.060And so, uh, you know, we, uh, started doing the chemo, but at the same time, my wife has researched everything underneath the sun.
01:09:58.980And she, there's so many Facebook groups out there and organizations that will lead you down the natural path, the route as well.
01:10:08.020And so, you know, I try to do a little bit of both, but sometimes the chemo will keep you from taking pills or taking supplements.
01:10:16.300Uh, you know, makes you tired all the time, makes you, makes you very sick.
01:10:19.840And, um, you know, I dropped, uh, I dropped over a hundred pounds.
01:10:24.680I went from two 50 and right now I weigh 146 pounds.
01:10:32.220How is, uh, how's the VA treating you?
01:10:38.020Well, you know, there, there were some incredible people that we met at the VA, people that really liked their job, people that really tried hard.
01:10:45.360But when it came to the oncologist department, um, you kind of nailed it on the head when you were reading or talking about it earlier is, um, yeah, this is what we do.
01:11:05.960So, and these are two things that they've been doing overseas for years and, and they saw some, you know, some good, good things from them, but it's nothing that the VA wanted any part of.
01:11:16.420And I mean, I even got my dander up a little bit and said, you know, listen, me being a plumber, I want to know everything about plumbing there is.
01:11:23.380That way, when a customer comes to me and asks me about it, I have an answer.
01:11:27.640When my wife and I come to you and talk to you about this, you know, uh, your, your guys' eyes glaze over and you, you don't even want to even think about it.
01:11:36.900And I just, it, it, it, it got me angry because it just seems that a lot of hospitals and big farm get in the way of, of, of real movement going forward to cure some of this stuff.
01:11:51.320You know, if they can't make money off of it, they don't want to, they don't want to research it.
01:11:55.500I know, uh, so Joe, you have been very active, you're active in your community.
01:12:05.000You've been raising money, uh, for a school, uh, you've traveled the country, um, just giving speeches for a long time because you were, you were roped into politics, uh, about 2008.
01:12:21.900Um, and you have three young children.
01:12:28.340Um, my, uh, oldest, I was, yeah, I don't know if you remember, but I was a single dad for years.
01:12:33.580So I have a 28 year old son that I raised, raised by myself and he's doing outstanding.
01:12:39.860And then, um, you know, the Lord blessed me with my current wife and, um, we have a 10 year old, an eight year old and a five year old, uh, two, uh, the oldest, uh, the 10 year old's a girl.
01:12:51.520And the eight year old's a boy and the five year old's another girl.
01:13:07.000I mean, between making sure that I get to church to, you know, running around, making sure I have a glass of water to, to doing all the research that she can.
01:13:17.380And, um, you know, I think she knows, sometimes I think she knows more than the doctors because there's her nose in a book reading about cancer.
01:13:24.600And, you know, the next step that we can do, then, you know, she's taking care of either the three kids or she's taking care of my dad or she's taking care of me.
01:13:35.780You're, she, you're, you're taking care of your dad.
01:13:38.480And in fact, you started to build a basement for your dad because your dad had an aneurysm, right?
01:13:46.400Years ago, my dad had an inoperable aneurysm and, um, who had a third best neurosurgeon in the world came along and said, Hey, I think I can, I can help you here.
01:13:57.220We lost him a couple of times on the table, but, um, he came through it, um, but he still, um, it didn't leave him in a position that to care for himself as much.
01:14:08.460And, uh, you know, my wife just fell in love with my mom who passed away from cancer a couple of years ago.
01:14:15.120She fell in love with my dad and she treats him just like her own parents.
01:14:19.820And she, you know, she goes over and does his bills.
01:14:23.080She goes over and does all the shopping, um, including the house.
01:14:27.900I mean, she just, uh, she doesn't stop.
01:14:30.760It's just, you know, everybody else has 24 hours of the day and it seems like she's got 48 hours as much as she gets done.
01:14:40.100So you are, there's been a, um, excuse me.
01:14:46.440Um, there has been a, uh, give, send, go, uh, that has been opened.
01:14:53.080You just search for Joe, the plumber and they're trying to raise money to not only help with, uh, medical, but also to, uh, you're going to, you're trying to finish the basement for your dad, right?
01:15:07.660Well, that kind of goes up in the air.
01:15:09.700If we moved to Wisconsin, um, you know, my dad's praying about it right now, but there's not actually a lot of support for him there either.
01:15:17.260If we move, you know, he's, he's got some sisters there in the surrounding area, but, um, you know, Katie's just not, Katie, Katie's worried that they wouldn't be there for him as much as he might need.
01:15:30.340And so we're, we're actually looking, you know, I mean, you know, Glenn, I'm, I believe in God, I'm a Christian and I know God can perform miracles at any time.
01:15:41.480And I truly believe that it's, it's incredible feeling knowing that, but at the same time, thank you're out of cancer is no joke.
01:15:48.140And, you know, most people unfortunately pass away from it.
01:15:51.080And so as a husband and a father, I just want to make sure my, my wife and children have the support they're going to need a case that, you know, it goes the other way.
01:16:00.560And so moving them to Wisconsin and having, having her parents here and her two sisters here and the kids as cousins will really help, but it'll really help offset some of the pain and hurt.
01:16:15.200I'm sorry, excuse me, but you know, it'll really help.
01:16:17.740So that's what we're trying to make happen right now.
01:16:22.740We, uh, it's one thing, I tell you what, it's, it's amazing.
01:16:26.820Just, you know, you got your friends and family, but it's incredible.
01:16:30.000The amount of people I don't know who have reached out to offer prayers, to offer donations.
01:16:36.060Um, you know, there, there are so many great people in this world and I've been, I've been thankful to meet a lot of them and, and some of them do anonymous donations.
01:16:45.920And, you know, we, it's so, you know, it's just, it's, it's been incredible in that regards, but yeah, no, I, we need to really focusing on a couple of things.
01:16:56.340One is getting my wife and kids up here so that they'll have the support they need as things move forward.
01:17:02.900Um, and, um, and we're still, you know, we're still looking for alternative medicines.
01:17:07.520We're still, um, looking at different clinics around the country.
01:17:11.760Um, you know, I'm, I'm on one list for a trial, but there's no, there's no date.
01:17:17.540Um, city of hope is reaching out to some other hospitals, uh, and, and America.
01:17:23.480Uh, I've seen if there's any trials that I might, uh, I might be able to get.
01:17:29.240Um, and, uh, the one thing with trials is that, uh, you know, you have to fly to them or drive to them.
01:17:36.580And, you know, right now we've been driving from Ohio to, uh, to Illinois for the last, you know, three and a half, four months, you know, getting, and, you know, that it's going through Chicago.
01:18:06.420Joe, um, I've only got about a minute.
01:18:10.040Um, but I want to thank you for everything that you have done for the country and standing up
01:18:17.360and being brave enough and taking all of the hits.
01:18:20.240I, I remember, uh, all of the hits that you took over and over and over again.
01:18:25.940Um, and just for being an average citizen and asking an honest question, do you have, you know, as you face this, do you have any advice or thoughts on, on life?
01:18:40.520Uh, ultimately, I just pray more people come to God, Glenn.
01:18:47.320Um, you know, I've always, that's one thing that helped me through all this from day one was staying grounded, uh, reading the good book and, uh, and knowing that God was in charge and I wasn't.
01:18:58.740Um, and so, um, you know, if you need help, if you need strength, you know, God promised he'll be with us.
01:19:06.420He doesn't promise an easy road, but he promised that he'd be with us.
01:19:10.100And that's something that my family and I have leaned on for a very long time.
01:19:14.800And so that's, that's the one thing you can take strength from God and, and, uh, know that there are a lot more good people out there than bad.
01:19:22.580You know, we all, we have some differences out there, but ultimately people want to do good things.
01:19:27.760And that's, that's been, that's been incredible to see throughout this, uh, this last almost year.
01:19:34.600Joe, rest assured if, uh, you know, a miracle doesn't happen, um, that, uh, we are here for Katie and your kids and, um, we'll make sure that they're taken care of.
01:20:50.960I've seen amazing things from my dog and I don't have any evidence of this other than, you know, what I witnessed.
01:20:57.820So I can't tell you scientifically, but I'll tell you all of the, uh, vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants that are in rough greens.
01:21:06.360I think it has given Uno a fuller and healthier life as he is, uh, as getting, uh, uh, getting a little older lately.
01:21:17.540The folks at rough greens are so confident.
01:49:46.600Actually, we definitely should address the stains that are on the cloth.
01:49:51.120There are forensically accurate blood stains from a spear wound, from crucifixion wounds in the hands and in the feet.
01:50:01.980The body is heavily scourged both in the back and in the front, far more accurate than Christian depictions of Jesus' scourging.
01:50:11.060And there are blood stains on the head from a cap or crown of thorns.
01:50:16.320People often ask me, why do you think it's Jesus?
01:50:18.460Well, the Romans crucified lots of people, and they probably stuck a spear into a lot of them as well.
01:50:24.520But only one man in recorded history that we know of who proclaimed himself the king of the Jews was crowned to humiliate him with a nasty thorn bush on his head.
01:50:35.340And we have blood stains on his scalp and head from the crown of thorns.
01:50:40.240So if you take all the facts, people often ask me, what convinced me?
01:51:22.960Wherever there's blood on the shroud, there's no image.
01:51:25.340That implies that the blood got onto the cloth by direct contact with the body before the image was formed, because there's no image under the blood stains.
01:51:35.500So what I think is that we have an artifact.
01:51:41.180Because when the tomb was found empty and the cloth was found, they couldn't very well come running out of the tomb and saying, look what we found, because it violates several Jewish laws.
01:52:41.640You know, with all the science that's been performed on it, and I have to remind everyone, only one set of scientific tests have ever been performed on the shroud.
01:52:50.880Since our work in 1978, 45 years ago, no one else has ever been given permission to examine it.
01:52:59.400So our science forms the database of peer-reviewed science documenting specifically what's on that cloth.
01:53:08.620And sadly, after all this time, we couldn't answer that one question, how is the image formed?
01:53:19.340So what were the questions that you had that made you, that you said, I had to answer, and now I've got all of the answers?
01:53:29.500What were those questions that were out there?
01:53:31.880The main question was, you know, was this some form of artwork or painting?
01:53:36.000And so certainly we had with us the spectral characteristics of every paint and pigment known to man from medieval to modern times,
01:53:46.260so that we had that as a database for comparison to what we found on the shroud.
01:53:50.960And there's no paint or pigment anywhere on that cloth, so we were able to eliminate it being an artwork, or at least create it that way.
01:53:58.260One of the other ideas was that it might have been a scorch caused by, somebody said, heating a statue and laying the shroud onto it.
01:54:07.280Well, one of our tests, ultraviolet fluorescence photography, showed all the actual scorches.
01:54:13.360There are burns and scorches on the shroud from a fire in 1532, and all the actual scorches from a high-temperature event all fluoresced in the red on our fluorescence photography.
01:54:25.800And the image did not fluoresce at all, so it was not the product of a high-temperature event, so we were able to eliminate scorching.
01:54:34.240And photographically, if it were made photographically, there would be silver all over the cloth, because that's the light-sensitive material that would have been used.
01:54:42.460We found zero silver anywhere on the cloth, and were able to eliminate photography as well.
01:54:48.060So, even though it has one property, like a photographic negative, the lights and darks are inverted from what we're used to seeing,
01:54:56.720that's about the only characteristics of the shroud's image that's like a photograph.
01:55:02.600There's depth information encoded into the density of the image, and this is where it gets a little complicated,
01:55:08.720but that depth information yields a topographical shape of a human form.
01:56:35.560If you approach this today, and I know you approached it with reverence for what it is, does it carry any God meaning to you?
01:56:45.900Well, you know, from my point of view, I think that Christians who look at it, many believe this is a product of the resurrection, a result from the resurrection event.
01:57:30.420Jesus himself said that the kingdom of God is within us.
01:57:33.760So, I just tell people, look, the answer to faith isn't on the cloth.
01:57:37.720It's in the eyes and hearts of those who look upon it.
01:57:40.720And I think that's where you have to be.
01:57:42.660You know that for those to whom this is important, it's there as a symbol of their faith.
01:57:48.540And for those who want to walk away from it, and I've met many people who just shrug and walk away, that's up to them as well.
01:57:55.700The answer to faith is within each of us, and we each have to find that space for ourselves.
01:58:02.400And you, but you say this was the man, Jesus of Nazareth, and that is just because of the markings on it?
01:58:10.180Yeah, I don't know of anyone else that suffered a very specific set of tortures that are well-documented in the New Testament that were performed on Jesus.
01:58:20.020And this forensically accurately documents all of those wounds exactly as described in the Gospels.
01:58:29.720Yeah, it's fascinating talking to you, Barry.
01:58:32.300I was just over in Europe, and I said to my wife, I so want to go see the Shroud of Turin.
