The Glenn Beck Program - How Leftist 'Nazi' Rhetoric Is Endangering Trump's Life ｜ Guests： Alan Dershowitz & Carol Roth ｜ 5⧸28⧸24

00:00:00.000 I have to tell you, I come home now and Uno is so old, he just kind of lifts his head

00:00:03.860 and looks at me like, yeah, I'm on vacation, man.

00:00:06.800 The only time he's really up and going is when he eats rough greens.

00:00:12.080 We put it on his food and he loves it.

00:00:15.200 I can't even imagine what he would be.

00:00:18.440 Honestly, I really believe he'd be wasting away if it wasn't for rough greens and his food.

00:00:23.200 He's a 120-pound dog, a German Shepherd.

00:00:26.280 He's a big animal and he's eaten.

00:00:29.060 And it's because of rough greens.

00:00:31.540 It's given him life and puppiness again when he first started taking it.

00:00:36.960 Roughgreens.com slash Beck 833-GLEN-33.

00:00:40.880 Call him now.

00:00:59.060 Oh, oh, oh.

00:01:01.280 Have no room to compromise.

00:01:07.760 We gotta stay together.

00:01:11.700 If we're gonna survive.

00:01:15.600 Stay up straight.

00:01:19.000 And hold the line.

00:01:21.760 It's a new day.

00:01:25.200 It's a new day.

00:01:27.400 It's a new day.

00:01:32.660 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:40.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:43.720 Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:47.480 We are so glad that you're here.

00:01:48.920 It is Tuesday, but it feels kind of like a Monday.

00:01:51.420 But the good news is, four days of work.

00:01:54.660 We have a story coming up next that I promise you no one else is going to tell you.

00:01:59.940 And it is going to affect all of our lives, all of our bank accounts.

00:02:03.740 And it's no longer if.

00:02:07.800 It is now 2027, and it is passed in law.

00:02:13.480 And no one is talking about it except us.

00:02:18.520 We do it next.

00:02:19.900 Stand by first.

00:02:21.280 Remember when they used to tell you, you know, when you were a kid and you got hurt?

00:02:25.200 Rub some dirt on it.

00:02:26.300 You'll be fine.

00:02:27.580 I actually said that to my grandson the other day.

00:02:30.520 Just rub some dirt on it. 0.70

00:02:33.740 And his mom looked at me like, what the hell? 0.97

00:02:35.820 And I'm like, everybody needs to eat a pack of dirt before they die. 0.76

00:02:38.680 Anyway, it doesn't work so well.

00:02:41.900 How about now that you're an adult, try some Relief Factor,

00:02:45.540 a 100% drug-free daily supplement that helps your body fight pain naturally.

00:02:50.160 It is just really good for you.

00:02:52.020 It's developed by doctors.

00:02:53.700 Relief Factor uses a unique formula of natural ingredients

00:02:56.940 that addresses the inflammation in your body,

00:02:59.660 which is where the pain starts.

00:03:01.300 You don't have to be my age to take this.

00:03:04.260 Inflammation is the main cause of almost everything that goes wrong with our body.

00:03:09.240 Don't mask your pain at all.

00:03:11.680 It helps reduce or even eliminate it all day, every day.

00:03:14.820 You're working out?

00:03:16.260 Take this.

00:03:17.260 Wherever you're hurting, your back, your neck, your joints, your muscles,

00:03:20.740 in about three weeks or less, you'll see a difference.

00:03:23.060 Go to relieffactor.com.

00:03:24.540 That is relieffactor.com.

00:03:26.840 Take their three-week trial test.

00:03:28.620 It's 800, the number four, Relief.

00:03:30.920 800-4-RELIEF.

00:03:35.180 Well, hello, Stu.

00:03:36.980 Glenn, how are you?

00:03:37.880 I am great.

00:03:39.300 Glad to be back in the studio.

00:03:40.440 Yeah, back in the studio.

00:03:41.040 Yeah.

00:03:41.980 We have, I have some good news and I have some bad news.

00:03:46.700 Which do you want first?

00:03:49.760 I'm a glutton for punishment, so they'll take the bad news first.

00:03:52.400 Okay.

00:03:54.080 You sure?

00:03:54.820 Okay, here we go.

00:03:57.740 This is extraordinarily bad news from the European Union.

00:04:03.240 This is something that I have been warning listeners and readers about for over three years now.

00:04:11.780 It was included in both the Great Reset and the Dark Future books.

00:04:16.320 We really went into it in Dark Future, talking about, this, this can't happen.

00:04:22.680 If this happens, don't, this, no, really.

00:04:26.220 Well, it's just happened.

00:04:28.000 We've talked about it on the air several times, but I don't, now it's official and it's in writing.

00:04:34.520 And so I'm going to explain it and tell you what it is and what it's going to do.

00:04:38.120 It looked like this bill was going to die several times over the past few months.

00:04:43.800 In fact, Justin Haskins and I had a big argument.

00:04:46.860 I should have made a $3,000 bail with him and then I could have paid you off for the Michelle Obama thing. 0.55

00:04:52.480 But he said it would fail and it is not.

00:04:59.520 Now it is one of the biggest threats to freedom in America, both in the short and the long term.

00:05:07.240 Because this law, because of this law in Europe, our society, through corporate decision-making and business partnerships,

00:05:17.060 are going to be forced to conform with the European rules, values, and environmental standards.

00:05:25.660 European social justice metrics are now officially, they have to be imposed on America through this law.

00:05:35.620 The only thing that will change this is if Congress acts and the President acts,

00:05:43.100 this President and this, at least, Senate will never stop this.

00:05:50.740 Here's what's going to happen.

00:05:52.360 The EU has established an extraordinarily complex, very large ESG system that covers all companies.

00:06:04.160 And when I say all companies, all companies will need to comply with.

00:06:09.320 This includes both covered companies based in the U.S. as well as non-EU companies,

00:06:15.700 such as those in America and Canada that operate in the EU.

00:06:20.620 So, in other words, you sell, I think it's half a billion dollars worth of stuff, and you have to comply.

00:06:28.680 You sell a half a billion dollars in Europe, just under that, then you have to comply.

00:06:34.460 But so do all of the companies that you do business with.

00:06:39.580 So, if you're a small company, and you're making widgets,

00:06:42.760 and you sell them to a company that is making big money, and I wonder if this applies to Amazon.

00:06:51.920 You sell something on Amazon, that's a company that's making at least half a billion dollars in Europe.

00:06:58.900 You're going to have to comply.

00:07:00.560 The covered companies will be required to submit reports to the European government authorities,

00:07:11.840 if they are EU-based customers or companies with more than 1,000 employees,

00:07:18.240 and a worldwide turnover of more than $489 million.

00:07:23.480 Turnover is another word for revenue or income, but why wouldn't you say that?

00:07:31.220 This word bothers me.

00:07:33.340 I just think it's one of those, it's like stakeholders that nobody notices,

00:07:39.040 and then you hear stakeholders and you know what it means.

00:07:41.620 You're like, oh crap, that's everybody.

00:07:43.480 Non-EU-based companies such as U.S. companies now fall under the requirements

00:07:50.400 if they have a net turnover of more than $489 million with the European Union.

00:07:57.740 Franchise and licensing agreements, as well as subsidiaries of larger companies,

00:08:03.940 will also fall under the EU's ESG regime.

00:08:08.680 I don't know exactly, the lawyers have not even really explained this yet,

00:08:13.480 but we have been covering this for so long.

00:08:17.200 We think we know what this means, but licensing agreements.

00:08:22.960 I write books.

00:08:25.020 Some of them sell in Europe.

00:08:28.940 Simon & Schuster sells books like crazy over in Europe.

00:08:33.400 They're making over $489 million, I'm sure, in Europe.

00:08:38.620 Am I now forced to comply?

00:08:41.060 Thank God I have Mercury Inc. now and I don't have to do Simon & Schuster,

00:08:44.600 but am I required?

00:08:48.740 Most importantly, all covered companies will need to ensure

00:08:53.060 that the businesses in their supply and value chains,

00:08:58.760 I don't know what that means.

00:09:00.680 You know what supply and value chain is?

00:09:04.640 Stu, you're the head of Ford.

00:09:06.800 Have you checked your value change?

00:09:09.820 What is exactly the numbers on your value change?

00:09:13.460 What the hell does that mean?

00:09:14.720 Value chain or value change?

00:09:16.260 Value chains.

00:09:18.780 I mean, I'm very in touch with my value chain on a daily basis.

00:09:24.400 Also, those companies, anybody who makes a widget for these companies

00:09:30.000 has to adhere to the relevant ESG rules.

00:09:34.120 Remember, ESG is environmental, social, and governance. 0.99

00:09:38.880 So, do you have enough gay, black, hermaphrodites that only have one leg? 1.00

00:09:49.000 Do you have them on your board? 0.99

00:09:51.560 Well, why not?

00:09:52.840 That's your governance part. 0.96

00:09:54.940 Social is all of the social justice crap that we've been fighting.

00:10:01.560 And E, of course, is environment. 0.94

00:10:04.560 This bill, by the way, will destroy the petroleum industry.

00:10:11.300 And don't worry, petroleum is not used in anything.

00:10:14.940 Nothing in petroleum.

00:10:16.620 This will indirectly impose Europe's ESG standards on countless American companies,

00:10:24.440 including many small businesses.

00:10:27.580 All covered companies will need to create climate change transition plans,

00:10:33.260 prevention action plans,

00:10:36.140 establish contractual assurances from a direct business partner

00:10:41.780 that it will ensure compliance with the business's prevention action plan.

00:10:47.560 So, you make a widget, but you don't sell it to Ford.

00:10:52.100 You sell it to somebody that is making radios for Ford.

00:10:57.200 You don't have anything to do with Ford.

00:11:02.160 But if you want to sell a widget to another company that does business with Ford,

00:11:07.140 or sell it to another company that that company sells to another company to sell to Ford,

00:11:14.000 you see how this is working?

00:11:15.200 And if you don't comply in America, you cannot sell anything in Europe.

00:11:24.060 You also establish contractual assurances, business prevention,

00:11:30.740 and make necessary financial or non-financial investments or upgrades.

00:11:37.480 The hell does that mean?

00:11:39.480 Individual countries will write their own laws in accordance with this new EU ESG law.

00:11:45.580 Each country in the EU will be responsible for enforcing its rules and issuing punishments.

00:11:52.460 Civilian and activist groups also are covered in this bill.

00:11:58.460 Activist groups can bring private cause of action against companies for failing to meet guidelines.

00:12:07.160 Well, open up the floodgates for attorneys right there. 0.99

00:12:11.940 The EU requirements are going to be phased in beginning in 2027.

00:12:17.780 Now, let me get into the actual requirements that we can...

00:12:24.120 This is a very complex and very big bill over the weekend.

00:12:27.880 Thank God for Justin Haskins and his team.

00:12:30.520 He went through all of it.

00:12:31.800 So let me tell you what these rules are.

00:12:35.980 We'll do that in 60 seconds.

00:12:37.580 We're not selling houses or, you know, helping anybody in Europe sell houses at realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:12:47.620 By the way, this law that they just passed in the EU, that's how you make everybody broke.

00:12:55.500 All right.

00:12:57.480 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:12:58.860 You're selling your house.

00:13:00.520 Do you have the right agent?

00:13:02.300 You need somebody who is honestly a perfectionist, somebody who is a really hard worker, who's, you know, really working hard to make sure you get the most for your house.

00:13:17.000 And then you pay less for the house that you're buying.

00:13:21.660 A little over a decade ago, I started a company with my brother, Robert.

00:13:25.020 It works with the best real estate agents, in our view, we put them through the ringer, in the country.

00:13:32.880 We started with the 500 best, according to the Wall Street Journal.

00:13:37.060 We learned a lot from them.

00:13:39.120 And now we look for those kinds of people.

00:13:41.240 So whether you're moving across town or across the country, or if you just have questions that need answering, we'll help.

00:13:48.580 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:13:51.320 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:13:52.820 10 seconds, station ID.

00:13:55.020 Again, we're talking about something that just passed on Friday in the EU that affects us.

00:14:11.260 And it's the economy, it's the environment, it's free speech, it's all of it.

00:14:18.980 So there's not a single long list of specific rules that companies need to comply with.

00:14:26.340 There are some specific rules that are included.

00:14:29.260 However, this new law includes hundreds of vague statements and references to existing international agreements and EU regulations.

00:14:39.800 Many of those are also long agreements featuring many more rules, such as the Paris Climate Agreement and the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights.

00:14:53.760 You know that.

00:14:54.880 You're complying, I'm sure.

00:14:56.860 Oh, you're not?

00:14:57.800 I guess we should read up on it.

00:15:00.120 As a result of the complexity and expansiveness of the rules, the total number of social credit scoring metrics...

00:15:08.080 Let me say that again.

00:15:11.020 The total number of social credit scoring metrics included in this law is currently unknown, but is likely in the hundreds, if not more than a thousand.

00:15:24.140 It's hard to tell currently.

00:15:26.880 You get social credit scores.

00:15:29.660 Now, let me ask you something.

00:15:32.860 Is the EU actually going to stop buying everything that comes from China?

00:15:38.300 Because there's no way China will comply with this.

00:15:41.920 Do you know what that will do to the prices to the European Union if they stop buying things from China?

00:15:48.960 And if we don't stop this, if we stop buying things from China?

00:15:55.160 Prices, you will go broke quickly.

00:16:00.680 Businesses will go out of business quickly.

00:16:04.380 Now, here's just one example of the law where it's not economic.

00:16:08.400 It's actually on climate change and free speech.

00:16:13.020 The directive is an important legislative tool to ensure corporate transition to a sustainable economy.

00:16:20.120 What they're saying there is no longer a capitalist system.

00:16:24.380 Including to reduce the existential harms and costs of climate change.

00:16:31.480 To ensure alignment with the global net zero by 2050.

00:16:36.420 And to avoid any misleading claims regarding such alignment.

00:16:43.260 And stop greenwashing, disinformation, and fossil fuel expansion worldwide.

00:16:50.060 In order to achieve international and European climate objectives.

00:16:56.100 So, notice they throw in misinformation.

00:16:59.860 One law firm notes, companies are required to effectively engage with stakeholders.

00:17:08.660 Let me say that again.

00:17:11.060 Companies are required to effectively engage with stakeholders.

00:17:17.380 Do you remember who the stakeholders are?

00:17:20.700 Because they're not you.

00:17:23.480 The stakeholders are the governments.

00:17:28.480 The social activists.

00:17:33.620 And I think that's it.

00:17:37.980 And the companies themselves.

00:17:39.340 Those three get together.

00:17:41.940 Because, you know, the Sierra Club is a stakeholder in making sure that our trees are okay and our environment is clean.

00:17:51.340 The government is just a representative of you.

00:17:55.580 Yeah.

00:17:56.400 Yeah.

00:17:57.080 I stopped believing that a long time ago.

00:17:59.600 So, you don't have a voice.

00:18:02.160 Your voice is the Senate, the House, and the President.

00:18:07.940 That's the stakeholder that they have to deal with.

00:18:11.140 Companies have to sit down when they're making these rules with those guys.

00:18:17.800 This includes carrying out consultations at various stages of the due diligence process.

00:18:24.320 That's going to be cheap.

00:18:25.380 During which companies must provide comprehensive information.

00:18:32.360 Now, according to the European Parliament, member states will be required to provide companies with detailed online information on their of their due diligence obligations via practical portals containing the commission's guidance.

00:18:47.000 They will also create or design and designate a supervisory authority to investigate and impose penalties on any non-compliant firms.

00:18:58.760 These will include naming and shaming.

00:19:02.440 That's a quote.

00:19:04.080 This will include, in quotes, naming and shaming and fines of up to 5% of the company's net worldwide turnover.

00:19:14.720 Again, worldwide turnover.

00:19:18.760 Why not use revenue?

00:19:20.740 Additionally, a breach of certain CSDDD obligations, that's the catchy acronym for it, may result in civil liability for damages.

00:19:34.960 However, a company cannot be held liable for any damage caused by its business partners in its chain of activities.

00:19:44.720 So, that's the bad news.

00:19:51.380 I can guarantee you, we are at least a year, maybe two years ahead of everyone else.

00:20:00.700 They are not paying attention to this.

00:20:04.400 Do not dismiss this when you go in to vote.

00:20:08.220 Which candidate is most, and I mean every candidate, is most likely to stand up and say,

00:20:17.880 no, if the United States, a huge market, decides to say, we're not playing your game,

00:20:29.080 Europe will not be able to stand on its own.

00:20:32.100 China, they'll just give a pass to because everybody, for some reason, thinks that authoritarian state

00:20:40.900 that puts their own people with social credit scores and puts them in camps is okay.

00:20:48.520 Let me ask you this.

00:20:49.540 Do you think Europe is actually going to have Apple pay a fine or stop making its products in China

00:20:57.000 because they're made by slaves?

00:20:59.440 No.

00:21:01.800 This is a way, look, there is a book over in our museum, very rare, because the king had them all burned.

00:21:09.420 It was during the witch trials over in Europe.

00:21:14.040 And it was one book that says, this is hogwash.

00:21:18.320 This is just the king wanting these rules so he can get rid of his enemies.

00:21:23.140 The king had them all burned.

00:21:26.260 We can find all kinds of stuff that say, witches are real.

00:21:30.600 That book is extraordinarily rare.

00:21:34.420 Why? 0.55

00:21:35.960 The king needed them to go away because he could have, anybody who displeased him, he's a witch. 0.99

00:21:45.500 She's a witch. 1.00

00:21:46.880 Burn them at the stake. 1.00

00:21:48.240 That's exactly what's going to happen here. 0.92

00:21:50.820 However, companies like Apple will be fine, Facebook fine doing business over in Europe,

00:21:58.680 even though they're working with the Chinese.

00:22:03.000 But any company that decides to stand and say, no, we don't believe in this.

00:22:08.800 We're not doing this.

00:22:10.320 You're doomed.

00:22:11.560 You're doomed.

00:22:12.760 If you play ball with the government in one way or another, you're all right.

00:22:17.880 Glenn Beck.

00:22:20.820 NMLSconsumeraccess.org.

00:22:24.860 APR for Rates in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

00:22:28.640 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

00:22:32.280 Okay.

00:22:32.800 I have good news.

00:22:33.900 Last year, customers were saving about, I think, $830 a month if they were doing business with American financing.

00:22:42.440 We just found out the average now this year is $854 a month.

00:22:48.900 First of all, that's like getting a $10,000 raise at the end of the year.

00:22:53.580 But I want you to imagine what something like that could do to your finances every month when you're paying your bills, having an extra $854.

00:23:03.000 You might be able to go to McDonald's.

00:23:05.080 If you're a homeowner and you're worried about things, please, you know, before the show, we all prayed for you about your finances today.

00:23:15.100 We prayed for you because we know the pressure you're under.

00:23:17.380 Please let American Financing talk to you and help you.

00:23:21.480 American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

00:23:47.380 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

00:23:53.280 A show note.

00:23:55.300 This Saturday, I'm going to be at roll call with Jason Whitlock and some of the best preachers, experts, speakers, entertainers.

00:24:05.820 Lots of people are going to be there.

00:24:08.360 John Rich is going to be singing as well.

00:24:11.480 The reason why I agreed to do this is Jason, this is the second year Jason did this, and the whole thing is to remind that no matter what experts or society says, men need to be men.

00:24:29.860 I'll be speaking about men who stepped up to the plate in dark hours of history and became men that the world needed because men have meaning.

00:24:39.500 You know, I was at a graduation yesterday and, oh my gosh, the number of women with, you know, the girls as they're graduating and they have all of the cords and the, you know, honors and everything else. 0.91

00:24:55.280 It was like 80% women. 1.00

00:25:00.100 Boys are just like, yeah, whatever.

00:25:04.240 It is not good.

00:25:06.420 It is not good.

00:25:07.740 Good times make weak men.

00:25:11.580 That's where we've been.

00:25:13.540 Hard times, which are coming because good times make weak men.

00:25:17.640 Weak men make hard times.

00:25:20.500 Hard times make strong men and strong men make good times.

00:25:25.900 So we need some strong men.

00:25:28.840 They just, you just need to, you just, look, I don't know a single woman.

00:25:34.320 Have you seen those Maybelline ads?

00:25:35.980 There were Maybelline ads for guys putting on makeup.

00:25:42.040 I don't know any woman, Sarah, do you know any women that, you know, are looking for a man and you're like, I just want a man who's putting on makeup every day, you know? 0.99

00:25:53.020 I don't.

00:25:53.900 No.

00:25:54.820 You don't know anyone.

00:25:56.900 Not a soul.

00:25:57.580 Not a soul.

00:25:58.240 What are you thinking?

00:26:00.820 First, they destroyed our boys.

00:26:03.460 Now they're destroying our men.

00:26:06.340 Now they've moved on to our girls and destroying women.

00:26:13.100 What do you think's going to happen?

00:26:15.100 Maybe the type of man who's putting on makeup, not all that interested in the female attention that you're talking about.

00:26:21.180 No, no, that's not the way they're, I agree with you, but they're not, you know, they're not, they're not really doing it that way.

00:26:28.140 Anyway, it's, it's rolled.

00:26:30.160 They're not presenting it that way.

00:26:31.500 Sure.

00:26:31.960 You know, be a man with Maybelline.

00:26:34.900 No, no.

00:26:36.240 Well, all right, you can get your tickets to this Saturday's event.

00:26:41.020 I urge you to come.

00:26:42.440 I'll be there.

00:26:43.260 I urge you to come.

00:26:44.720 There's only a couple hundred tickets left.

00:26:48.340 FearlessArmyRollcall.com.

00:26:49.540 It's in Nashville.

00:26:52.440 FearlessArmyRollcall.com.

00:26:53.920 I would love to see you there.

00:26:56.180 By the way, it's sponsored by Preborn.

00:26:59.200 Also, after that, I'm flying from Nashville to Prague in the Czech Republic.

00:27:07.200 I'm producing, kind of a strange time to announce this, but I just want to let you know where I'm going to be next week.

00:27:13.060 I am producing a traditional Christmas album in the spirit of Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Michael Bublé.

00:27:19.420 And so Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday, I'll be in the Czech Republic recording with the Prague Symphony Orchestra.

00:27:28.820 These guys are amazing.

00:27:31.740 So we're laying down all the tracks for the orchestral part.

00:27:34.940 Are they aware you can't sing?

00:27:36.380 I mean, why are they?

00:27:37.120 No, I'm not singing.

00:27:37.980 I'm just producing.

00:27:38.960 Yeah, I'm not singing.

00:27:40.780 I'm just going to be behind the glass going, yeah, that sounds good. 0.60

00:27:47.600 Oboes, you're a little weak. 1.00

00:27:49.420 But I'm going to let it fly.

00:27:51.680 You're oboe critical?

00:27:52.660 Yeah, I'm oboe critical.

00:27:53.720 Wow.

00:27:53.840 Yeah.

00:27:54.220 And then the conductor will look at me and say, there's no oboes written in this.

00:27:58.980 That's why they're weak.

00:28:00.420 See, I spotted that.

00:28:02.360 Anyway, then I come back to the U.S., thank goodness, except I don't know if I can classify it as the U.S.

00:28:08.580 I still can now, but I don't know later.

00:28:10.880 I'm flying back into New York, where I am truly honored to give the keynote address at Michael Harrison's Talkers Convention.

00:28:19.940 That is a convention for anybody who uses a microphone to inform and entertain in New York City.

00:28:27.540 That'd be great.

00:28:27.980 And that's a big honor to host that.

00:28:30.600 Yeah.

00:28:31.760 So it's going to be a busy week.

00:28:33.480 So we got that to look forward to.

00:28:35.740 Now, Stu, I didn't get to the good news.

00:28:38.340 You picked bad news over good news.

00:28:39.920 I did.

00:28:40.320 But I have...

00:28:40.980 I didn't know it was going to be 40 minutes of bad news.

00:28:43.400 Well, it was bad news.

00:28:44.380 I told you it was really bad news.

00:28:46.100 Yes.

00:28:46.240 Okay.

00:28:46.740 So I have some really good news, but I also have some more bad news.

00:28:56.200 So which do you want this time?

00:28:58.240 Do you want the good news or the bad news first?

00:29:02.620 Well, wait.

00:29:03.380 Is the bad news tied to the previous bad news?

00:29:05.560 Nope, nope.

00:29:06.200 Totally different bad news?

00:29:07.320 Totally different bad news.

00:29:08.500 Yeah.

00:29:08.820 I mean, maybe we just get all the bad news out of the way.

00:29:10.480 You sure?

00:29:11.380 Well, no.

00:29:12.640 Not at all.

00:29:13.600 I'm not at all sure.

00:29:14.700 And then I don't have any more bad news after this.

00:29:16.660 I don't believe you.

00:29:17.680 Well, why?

00:29:19.180 I don't have any...

00:29:19.820 Well, we have a bunch of guests coming up.

00:29:21.200 Do they have all good news?

00:29:22.000 Well, they have bad news, but I said I don't have bad news.

00:29:24.960 Who schedules the show?

00:29:26.720 Anyway, so you're picking the bad news.

00:29:28.560 Here it is.

00:29:29.020 Okay.

00:29:29.620 We're in a color revolution here in America.

00:29:32.540 Tomorrow night on the Wednesday night special, regime change of foreign nations has been U.S.

00:29:38.960 policy for decades, and we are very good at it.

00:29:43.020 Covert CIA operations to manipulate the media, meddle in elections, and topple governments.

00:29:50.660 Go back to the beginning of the Cold War.

00:29:52.560 But again, we're now very good at it.

00:29:57.060 In recent years, those operations have been expanded by us, the U.S., into NGOs and trade unions.

00:30:07.020 You know, SEIU.

00:30:08.340 Why is SEIU right now in Ukraine?

00:30:11.840 What do they have to do with?

00:30:14.020 Service?

00:30:15.140 Service employees union?

00:30:16.520 What are they doing there?

00:30:18.040 George Soros.

00:30:19.580 They're all part of color revolutions in the Middle East, Latin America, and Eastern Europe 0.96

00:30:24.900 in the last 10 years.

00:30:27.080 They go in, including our State Department, and train and mobilize street movements.

00:30:33.520 They have toppled these regimes.

00:30:35.320 They did it all out in the open.

00:30:37.200 In fact, they even bragged about it.

00:30:39.900 Well, here's where the bad news starts.

00:30:41.620 Some of these very same groups and individuals are active now in the United States.

00:30:47.980 Just last week, story about the anti-Israel protesters who seized control of the Institute

00:30:53.440 of Politics at the University of Chicago.

00:30:56.120 They have now called for a launching of a nationwide insurgency and domestic terrorism campaign

00:31:03.880 in a published statement titled, and you look it up for yourself,

00:31:08.300 Bring the Infantata Home. 1.00

00:31:10.140 This is just part of the statement.

00:31:13.720 We must escalate our actions against all governments, institutions, and corporations

00:31:20.020 who participate in, profit off of, and enable genocide.

00:31:26.000 There must be consequences to their property, income, reputation, privacy, and safety.

00:31:35.160 Are we in a color revolution?

00:31:37.820 I believe the answer is yes, and we're about to find it on our streets.

00:31:44.400 Join me tomorrow night as we look into the underground, the anti-Trump cabal that is now threatening our republic.

00:31:52.700 Stop saying things like, well, we're, you know, we're kind of in a revolution.

00:32:02.580 We're in this.

00:32:03.320 We're in that.

00:32:03.920 No.

00:32:05.040 Our motto must be from here on out.

00:32:07.960 Save the republic.

00:32:10.420 I heard something.

00:32:11.580 Do we have that clip from Nick Fuentes?

00:32:14.840 Nick Fuentes, whatever his name is.

00:32:17.320 I don't think they put it. 1.00

00:32:18.320 Darn it. 0.99

00:32:18.640 They didn't put it on. 1.00

00:32:20.800 Oh, no.

00:32:22.040 I know.

00:32:22.720 He came out over the weekend and just said, you know, we were on the wrong side.

00:32:28.320 We should have been fighting the Soviets, not the Nazis. 0.76

00:32:31.700 Because, you know, it wouldn't have been as bad, you know, with Hitler. 0.97

00:32:38.420 And I'm like, excuse me?

00:32:40.660 And so, and he actually said, so calling Trump Hitler is really not that bad.

00:32:45.220 No, first of all, Trump is not Hitler.

00:32:48.380 And the second part, Hitler was bad. 0.92

00:32:51.560 Wow.

00:32:52.100 These are, this is really.

00:32:53.740 Usually used to be common knowledge.

00:32:55.200 Yeah, it's not now and it's infiltrating everywhere.

00:32:58.880 Make sure you don't miss tomorrow night's 9 p.m. Eastern on blazetv.com.

00:33:03.780 Okay.

00:33:05.100 Want the good news?

00:33:06.460 Yeah, sure.

00:33:07.620 Yes.

00:33:08.120 After that.

00:33:08.660 Yes.

00:33:08.880 This is really good news.

00:33:10.240 Here we go.

00:33:10.720 Okay.

00:33:12.520 The World Health Organization, the WHO, proposed the pandemic treaty.

00:33:20.460 Now, what the pandemic treaty was, was giving the power to the WHO to be able to override all laws.

00:33:33.080 If they said it was a pandemic and you had to put everybody in their houses, you could not, not comply.

00:33:41.560 Okay.

00:33:41.740 They hoped that a final draft treaty could be agreed upon in its yearly meeting of health ministers that starts today.

00:33:55.020 However, it was rejected after two years of closed doors meeting in Geneva, Switzerland.

00:34:03.760 It is off the table, at least for now.

00:34:07.080 Now, remember, the League of Nations was off the table until the war, and then it went on the table, then it got off the table, and then it changed into the United Nations.

00:34:17.700 So, we have to keep our eye on this, but this is a huge, huge victory.

00:34:23.200 Huge victory.

00:34:24.640 And I think it's coming from, really, honestly, did you see the email, what was it, the text from Peter Danzig to, I think, Anthony Fauci,

00:34:36.460 or somebody, and he said, this isn't going to be a problem unless Rand Paul finds out?

00:34:41.780 Yeah, I just see that.

00:34:43.200 Yeah, and Rand Paul reads it, and he's like, so is it a problem yet?

00:34:47.720 Yeah, it's starting to be.

00:34:49.720 All right, back in just a second.

00:34:51.060 First, let me tell you about the burner launcher.

00:34:53.520 You know, you have to declare a lot of things when you're traveling on a plane.

00:34:57.880 Guns, ammunition, knives, swords.

00:35:00.000 I mean, I don't think you're allowed to fly with, I don't know, an undeclared thumb war. 0.90

00:35:08.520 That was a, you were participating in an undeclared thumb war.

00:35:11.780 You are not on this plane.

00:35:14.420 You know, unless you're a hermaphrodite with maybe two legs missing. 0.99

00:35:18.000 I don't know.

00:35:19.240 But one thing you don't have to declare that could save your life or the life of somebody you love is a burner launcher.

00:35:27.080 It is a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home that will send potential threats running in the opposite direction.

00:35:35.940 It is legal in all 50 states, no permits, no background checks are required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18.

00:35:45.460 You can pack it in your checked luggage without the need to declare it as a firearm, making it the airport experience, you know, less than, oh, God.

00:35:56.100 Nothing makes it okay.

00:35:58.380 Anyway, there are times when non-lethal is really the way to go.

00:36:02.280 The Burna launcher has powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60-foot range.

00:36:07.840 One shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes.

00:36:12.000 Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

00:36:15.020 That's Burna dot com slash Glenn.

00:36:17.540 Make sure you use my name at the end for a 10% discount on your purchase.

00:36:21.420 It's Burna dot com slash Glenn.

00:36:24.000 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:36:45.660 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:36:48.000 Glad you're here.

00:36:48.920 Donald Trump is in court today.

00:36:50.640 His defense now delivers its closing arguments.

00:36:54.120 This is going to be tough because the judge has disallowed so many actual facts that, you know, I hope he can just tie it up clearly.

00:37:07.240 Because everything that was testified to, well, Jonathan Turley, there's no case.

00:37:15.280 There is no crime.

00:37:17.580 And all of the defense was not serious.

00:37:24.700 Sorry, the prosecution.

00:37:26.100 And then in the defense, I mean, I think this thing, if you can't find one person to say no on this one in New York City, that's saying a lot.

00:37:38.920 But one of the, I think this will be overturned just on this.

00:37:42.320 Bradley Smith, he's the former FEC commissioner, the chairman.

00:37:46.720 OK, that's the federal election commission.

00:37:52.200 The judge, he was going to testify that even if there were a campaign contribution, which there wasn't, it would not have been needed to be filed until after the election, which completely destroys the idea that this was an influence campaign to try to influence the election.

00:38:13.680 Because remember, they're not saying the crime is the cover up of the affair.

00:38:18.120 Right.

00:38:18.400 What they're saying is the crime is the business records manipulation that happened after he was already president.

00:38:25.020 And they're trying to say that business records manipulation somehow influenced the election that had already occurred and was over.

00:38:32.640 And it's no sense.

00:38:34.140 The FEC has already turned the case down.

00:38:37.260 A state court cannot prosecute a federal crime.

00:38:44.460 Correct.

00:38:45.020 OK, this this is this is they're not even trying to.

00:38:48.160 They're just acting as if it should have been prosecuted.

00:38:52.800 Right.

00:38:52.960 But they won't even say directly which crime it is.

00:38:56.160 Right.

00:38:56.640 It won't.

00:38:57.180 You won't know.

00:38:58.420 You won't know.

00:38:59.440 That jury will not know what crime he's supposed to have committed.

00:39:05.100 Right.

00:39:05.700 Because, again, this has to tie to a separate crime or we're already past the statute of limitations and it's a misdemeanor anyway.

00:39:14.100 So to turn it into a felony, one that is within the statute of limitations, they have to tie it to another crime.

00:39:19.360 But they haven't told anyone what the crime is.

00:39:22.260 It's it's really incredible.

00:39:23.720 It's the biggest injustice.

00:39:25.260 This is Russia. 0.52

00:39:26.200 It's really bad.

00:39:26.800 This is what Soviet Union used to do. 0.90

00:39:29.640 Turley has a great op ed on this.

00:39:32.140 Jonathan Turley, he said, you know, every case is a three legged stool and all three have to be strong.

00:39:39.520 And he said, there are no legs there.

00:39:42.220 No legs.

00:39:42.800 He said, in the end, we are all standing on that wobbly stool when the government seeks to convict people without evidence or even a clear crime.

00:39:53.880 If we allow a conviction, it is more than a stool that will collapse in this Manhattan courtroom.

00:40:01.500 And look, this will be probably overturned.

00:40:03.920 But that doesn't matter in some ways when it comes to what the ramifications are.

00:40:08.680 If the courts and the jury can do this in New York, can anyone who is unpopular get a fair trial?

00:40:18.500 We have to get into the politics of this, too, because, I mean, it's fascinating to think about, like, in some ways, even if he gets a conviction and they're like, well, you're fined, right?

00:40:30.000 I mean, do the American people care at all?

00:40:32.760 I feel like there's a good chance they just have already priced this in.

00:40:37.380 I think so.

00:40:38.620 But if he is convicted, I don't I'm not sure that's been priced in because the case has been so weak.

00:40:46.360 Even CNN is saying there's there's this this this is really falling apart.

00:40:51.280 This is a big nothing burger.

00:40:53.200 I don't think we've priced in a conviction yet.

00:40:57.640 The Glenn Beck program.

00:40:59.300 Let me tell you about Covenant Eyes.

00:42:39.400 We'll be right back.

00:43:09.400 I think just for an election.

00:43:12.260 Now, this isn't any big deal.

00:43:14.660 This will work.

00:43:15.560 What Biden is now suggesting is that we have Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac get back into giving more taxpayer-backed consumer loans to people who can't afford a loan.

00:43:39.300 Which, well, that sounds familiar.

00:43:42.260 Didn't we do that before?

00:43:43.260 I'm trying to remember.

00:43:45.600 I don't think that worked out real well.

00:43:48.960 More trouble on the horizon from the Biden administration.

00:43:54.480 We'll tell you all about it with Carol Roth in 60 seconds.

00:43:57.920 First, I bet you have some awesome guns.

00:44:01.600 Maybe you have an arsenal.

00:44:02.760 Oh, my gosh.

00:44:03.380 Do you have an arsenal? 1.00

00:44:04.400 You're a criminal. 0.99

00:44:05.380 What? 1.00

00:44:06.020 I'm what?

00:44:06.460 First, you need to make sure that you are proficient with all of your guns.

00:44:13.220 Because, you know, what's the point of having a gun if you can't shoot it? 0.90

00:44:18.080 You could shoot yourself. 0.99

00:44:19.260 You could shoot somebody else. 1.00

00:44:20.580 You need practice. 0.84

00:44:21.580 But practice by going to the range, using up ammunition, time-consuming, really expensive.

00:44:28.400 And every time I fire a real bullet, I'm like, well, am I going to be able to replace that someday?

00:44:34.240 It's high-tech, easy to use.

00:44:36.400 It's widely used by the military.

00:44:38.200 It started, I think, with the Marines.

00:44:39.840 And it will help you improve your shooting quickly.

00:44:42.260 You attach it to your firearm, connect it to your app or smartphone on tablet or via Bluetooth, then whenever you are firing actual rounds or even dry fire practice in your house, it will give you instant feedback on what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong and, most important, how to correct your technique.

00:45:02.620 It's fantastic.

00:45:15.420 Carol Roth, the author of that book, You Will Own Nothing, which is ridiculous.

00:45:23.740 How would you possibly bankrupt people so they would have to sell everything or couldn't afford it and have it taken away from them?

00:45:32.380 I mean, you'll own nothing by 2030.

00:45:35.440 Ha, ha, ha. 0.98

00:45:36.440 What a ridiculous idea. 0.99

00:45:38.640 Hello, Prophet Carol Roth. 0.97

00:45:40.220 How are you?

00:45:40.740 I thought I was a conspiracy theorist, Glenn, but I'll take profit slash conspiracy theorist.

00:45:46.960 Isn't it amazing, Carol?

00:45:48.420 Every day, every day I see something, just McDonald's.

00:45:53.800 You go to McDonald's.

00:45:54.580 This is how you have a country that owns nothing because they no longer can afford to buy anything, anything.

00:46:04.240 Yeah, it's so frustrating.

00:46:06.720 It's so frustrating when I read this in the media, the corporate press all of a sudden waking up and saying things like, oh, fast food and restaurants are more expensive than ever and people can't afford them.

00:46:17.900 It's like, wow, that's a giant shock to me who's been telling you this for years and years based on the fiscal and monetary policies of this country.

00:46:26.620 You know what's more frustrating to me is the fact that we know that they're wrong.

00:46:33.980 We've seen that they're wrong over and over and over again.

00:46:36.320 They're lying to us and saying we're a conspiracy.

00:46:38.500 And then when it turns out to be right, they announce that it's suddenly true and right.

00:46:43.140 And then people go back to them for the answer on how to solve it.

00:46:48.720 It's crazy.

00:46:50.540 Right.

00:46:51.020 It's the arsonists who are burning down your house and then they bring a water bottle and say, hey, I'm going to help push it, put out the fire and rebuild it.

00:46:58.020 It is frustrating and the gaslighting when we're telling people what it is that they're going to experience or what they are experiencing from the Biden administration, from the press saying, no, no, you don't.

00:47:11.300 You just don't understand. 0.83

00:47:12.580 You're just not smart enough. 0.97

00:47:14.160 Right.

00:47:14.340 People are experiencing this every day.

00:47:16.300 Right.

00:47:16.480 It's just like an extra gut punch.

00:47:18.960 Talk to me about Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

00:47:21.120 This was one of the biggest collapses during 2008.

00:47:29.880 But if I'm not mistaken, it wasn't really taken that way because the federal government, we, the taxpayers, foot the bill for that one.

00:47:39.940 So they didn't actually fail, but they did.

00:47:43.840 So do you remember the scene in after trading places when Randolph and Mortimer Duke went bankrupt and then they pop up and coming to America and Eddie Murphy hands them this wad of cash and all of a sudden Randolph says, Mortimer, we're back.

00:48:00.100 I feel like this is the exact same thing that's going on with Freddie Mac.

00:48:04.700 And certainly if it happens with Freddie Mac and it gains acceptance, it's going to happen with Fannie Mae.

00:48:10.040 So right now, these two government-sponsored enterprises, based on what happened out of the Great Recession financial crisis, they were put into conservatorships with the FHFA as well as the Treasury.

00:48:25.160 So they've been watching them and making sure that they don't do anything risky, right?

00:48:29.980 Well, now Freddie Mac had this great idea because people have so much equity in their homes.

00:48:36.060 Let us go ahead and offer second mortgages.

00:48:40.840 Now, you have to remember that these government-sponsored enterprises, Freddie Mac and, you know, as well as Fannie Mae, the whole point of them is to, you know, extend credit, make sure that people can get into housing.

00:48:52.540 But second mortgages don't get you into housing.

00:48:55.740 Those are consumer loans.

00:48:57.520 Those are people taking money out of their homes and using them for whatever it is.

00:49:03.160 And that equity is perceived equity, right?

00:49:06.640 Because they haven't cashed out the house.

00:49:08.960 They haven't sold the house.

00:49:10.080 They haven't cashed out.

00:49:11.020 So they don't have that guarantee.

00:49:12.780 They just think that it happens to be today worth this much money and they put a loan against it.

00:49:18.400 Wait, wait, wait.

00:49:19.720 Let me make a case for this because I did a lot of thinking on this a couple of years ago.

00:49:25.520 So some people, that may be good for.

00:49:30.440 Other people, horrible.

00:49:33.400 Or do you think it's always horrible?

00:49:36.220 Well, here's what it is.

00:49:38.000 It's taking the money out of your home, the equity that you have, the ownership that you have, and saying, okay, no longer I have this ownership.

00:49:47.440 Now I have the pile of cash.

00:49:49.140 So what are you doing with that cash?

00:49:51.540 Are you using it to reinvest?

00:49:53.740 Because right now that's very expensive to do.

00:49:56.240 We're not in a zero interest rate environment.

00:49:58.820 So if you're paying even on a second mortgage, eight or nine or whatever percent it is, how are you going to get a better return on that?

00:50:07.860 It seems to me that that is people taking their wealth, their ownership, and going and blowing it and spending it.

00:50:14.680 That's what will happen.

00:50:15.680 That's what will happen.

00:50:18.000 I mean second mortgages to pay down like a credit card at 25%.

00:50:23.400 I'd rather pay nine than 25.

00:50:27.080 Sure.

00:50:27.880 Sure.

00:50:28.360 But obviously we would rather to use other money if we can to pay down 25% than taking down your ownership.

00:50:34.940 So obviously it is specific to everyone.

00:50:37.080 But overall, I think we have to ask ourselves a few questions here.

00:50:40.560 One, why is it that the taxpayers should all of a sudden back consumer loans?

00:50:47.640 Why is it that we want to encourage more consumer debt spending, particularly during a time of inflation?

00:50:54.940 And why do we want people to reduce the ownership, the equity in their homes?

00:51:00.680 May I guess?

00:51:01.240 And so, sure, please do.

00:51:03.680 Because I've got to guess too.

00:51:04.580 Because I am a helper.

00:51:07.420 And if you reelect me, I can help you with all of your troubles.

00:51:14.220 But the other guy, he's not going to help you with that.

00:51:17.020 I'll help you get a loan so you can do the things you need to do.

00:51:21.160 Invest in your business and pay down your loans.

00:51:24.120 And a lot of people are struggling even to pay for food.

00:51:26.580 So I'll help you.

00:51:28.860 Bing, bing, bing, bing.

00:51:30.220 We have an election around the corner.

00:51:32.160 And obviously we've seen Biden try to do this cancellation of student loan debt.

00:51:37.620 And, you know, that is not working out as well as he had hoped, although he keeps pushing it.

00:51:42.520 So now how do we make people who are maybe struggling financially feel like they're wealthier, feel like they have more cash in their hands?

00:51:50.540 Oh, we'll let them take this, you know, quote-unquote equity out of their homes, which is buying votes, which is increasing consumer spending, which pushes up the GDP, which we know is, you know, faltering based on last quarter.

00:52:04.920 So all of these things make him look like the economy is doing better.

00:52:09.060 By the way, also likely highly inflationary that we're adding more consumer spending into the mix here.

00:52:15.880 So this is being proposed by Freddie Mac.

00:52:19.180 Hang on just a second.

00:52:20.960 And more inflation makes it harder for you to buy things later.

00:52:27.300 You've got now a second mortgage and you're going to be in the same situation you were in if you spend that money to do anything other than pay off very high interest rates.

00:52:40.360 You take a loan out and do anything with it when the because this won't happen until after the election.

00:52:48.380 I mean, you won't feel the effects.

00:52:51.020 But I'm telling you, inflation next year is going to be insane.

00:52:55.220 Do you agree with that?

00:52:56.220 Well, particularly if these programs that he's pushing continue, right?

00:53:02.560 So if this if this if FHFA comes back and says, sorry, we're not going to do this, which one of the things is pretty interesting here.

00:53:09.860 And it goes back to this election thesis is normally when you have a rule like this that pops up, there's a comment period.

00:53:15.940 And that comment period is about six to 12 months, depending on a variety of factors.

00:53:21.080 Do you know what the comment period on this was, Glenn?

00:53:23.860 Two weeks.

00:53:25.260 30 days.

00:53:26.340 30 days.

00:53:27.080 30 days.

00:53:27.600 Which, again, goes back to say there's an urgency of why it is they're trying to push this through.

00:53:33.820 Now, I'll add something else super fun in here.

00:53:36.840 So in addition, so if Freddie Mac does this, there's no reason why Fannie Mae is not going to try to do this.

00:53:42.760 But they're under conservatorships.

00:53:45.040 Right.

00:53:45.500 So how do they really expand this market?

00:53:49.000 You know, which is right now it's a decent sized market.

00:53:51.800 But this could expand, you know, up to for both of those agencies, maybe two trillion.

00:53:56.980 I've heard maybe four to five trillion with leverage of capacity.

00:54:00.580 How do they how do they extend that?

00:54:02.500 Well, they could then, if the conservators, which, again, is FHFA and the Treasury, say, OK, you're no longer under conservatorship.

00:54:11.280 They can go back to securitizing these.

00:54:14.800 Does this sound familiar?

00:54:16.180 That means that they take a bunch of these secondary mortgages, they package them together into a new security, and they sell them into the market.

00:54:24.080 And these were the same types of securities, if you recall, which started the whole ball rolling with the Great Recession financial crisis.

00:54:32.640 So nothing to see here, guys.

00:54:34.500 I'm sure this will work out really well.

00:54:36.700 And I'm super excited for taxpayers to back consumer loans.

00:54:41.900 You're not even backing first mortgages.

00:54:44.180 You're now backing consumer loans.

00:54:46.460 Way to go.

00:54:47.340 Really glad that the government wants to get into that.

00:54:49.280 And, again, it is estimated to be two trillion dollars.

00:54:53.480 However, you and I both know, uh-huh, it could go as high as five trillion dollars.

00:55:02.680 Don't just think of that as your debt that we need to pay.

00:55:08.420 Think of it this way as well.

00:55:11.480 That's two to five trillion dollars being dumped into the economy.

00:55:17.280 What do you think will happen to the value of the dollar and your buying power?

00:55:25.200 Five trillion dollars out of thin air.

00:55:29.760 It's insane.

00:55:30.940 And at a time when we have the Federal Reserve who is frustrated with their attempt to fight inflation and the government continuing to spend like drunken sailors, no disrespect to the drunken sailors,

00:55:44.020 then you keep having these consumer stimuluses.

00:55:47.780 And this is what happened with the Biden administration when they came out, you know, right out of the gate a few months later and they did direct consumer stimulus.

00:55:56.840 It's in the name.

00:55:58.780 Stimulus.

00:55:59.440 It stimulates the economy.

00:56:01.460 That is the intention.

00:56:03.120 And the same thing here.

00:56:04.500 If you take money that is locked up in homes and all of a sudden you unlock that.

00:56:09.180 And again, it's theoretical money because if the price of houses end up going down in that area, then they could end up being underwater and be in real financial trouble.

00:56:21.040 So this is theoretical dollars that they have that they're going to take out and use the dollars to spend in the economy.

00:56:27.220 It artificially inflates the GDP.

00:56:30.340 It makes everything look like the consumer is doing much better.

00:56:33.160 And it absolutely will eat away at your purchasing power, devalue your labor, devalue your wealth.

00:56:40.620 Once again, it is the same cycle repeating for political purposes.

00:56:45.140 Carol, I'd love to have you on again later this week because there's a couple of other things that are affecting small businesses and independent workers.

00:56:52.740 Again, you know, so you will own nothing, but you'll be happy.

00:56:57.640 Apparently, we're going to can I invite you back later this week?

00:57:00.900 I'm always happy to be back with you.

00:57:28.960 Thank you, Carol.

00:57:30.000 I have to tell you, I've been doing my pillow commercial here, but I have to tell you, when I got, Tanya came and she came home and I didn't know.

00:57:40.900 She ordered new pillows and I was like, where is my pillow?

00:57:44.720 Because I sleep on my pillow every night and I love it.

00:57:48.480 And she got the new my pillow, the 2.0, and it's different than the 1.0.

00:57:55.240 And I slept on it and I'm like, or I put it and I was like, honey, this is not the same.

00:58:01.700 I have to tell you, I have been sleeping on these things now for a week and I wake up with, I haven't, I wake up in exactly the same position I went to sleep in.

00:58:13.420 That's never happened in my life.

00:58:16.660 But I will tell you, I am on drugs because of the eye surgery.

00:58:20.500 The doctor prescribed, you ready, Stu?

00:58:22.540 Stand back for this.

00:58:24.200 The doctor prescribed ibuprofen 600.

00:58:30.040 Wow.

00:58:30.600 She knew the 800 would be too much.

00:58:32.960 Yeah.

00:58:33.220 And so she was like, ibuprofen 600 and don't take too much of it.

00:58:37.720 Right.

00:58:37.940 You know, I've been flying high on ibuprofen.

00:58:41.100 I could tell something was going on.

00:58:43.100 I thought you just had a crazy night, but no, it's the ibuprofen.

00:58:45.780 Ibuprofen 600.

00:59:20.780 10 seconds.

00:59:21.840 Station ID.

00:59:22.380 We have Alan Dershowitz on with us in just a few minutes to talk about the Donald Trump trial because Donald Trump's lawyers, their closing arguments are today.

00:59:40.440 This thing is insane.

00:59:41.500 We'll talk about it in a second.

00:59:43.000 Tomorrow night on the Wednesday night special, are we in a color revolution?

00:59:49.120 I believe we are.

00:59:50.420 The U.S. policy on regime change has been, you know, in effect for decades.

00:59:57.280 It started with the Cold War.

00:59:59.240 But now these operations have expanded by the U.S. into NGOs, trade unions, people like George Soros.

01:00:09.320 So now it's not just the government.

01:00:11.500 And they were all part of color revolutions in the Middle East, Latin America, Eastern Europe.

01:00:16.340 Remember I said a long time ago it will start in the Middle East, it will go to Europe, and then come here to America and sweep and topple America. 1.00

01:00:27.040 We are there, I believe, and I'm going to show you the evidence of it and who is, you'll know who's going to be marching in the streets this summer and why and who's paying for it before it happens.

01:00:43.620 Are we in a color revolution?

01:00:46.280 Join me tomorrow night as I look into the underground, the anti-Trump cabal that threatens our republic.

01:00:53.720 May God save the republic.

01:00:56.040 That's tomorrow night at 9 p.m. Eastern on blazetv.com.

01:01:00.960 Okay, this Trump trial we're going to start talking about here in just a second, but it is, it's amazing to me and sad that I think there's maybe a 50 to 70% chance that it'll be a hung jury.

01:01:23.840 Really?

01:01:24.660 That's what I'm hoping.

01:01:25.820 Wow, that's optimistic.

01:01:26.360 That's what I'm hoping for when this is a case that just screams Soviet Union. 0.99

01:01:35.900 Every expert, even on CNN, they're all saying there's nothing here.

01:01:41.400 There is nothing here.

01:01:43.340 This was very weak at the beginning, and it's gone poorly for the prosecution.

01:01:49.300 I think that's almost impossible to deny, even if you hate Donald Trump.

01:01:53.880 But see, that's the question.

01:01:55.300 Will the jury hate Donald Trump more than they believe in equal justice for all under the law?

01:02:04.760 I think there's a real possibility of that.

01:02:07.940 I do too.

01:02:08.340 And, you know, if you think about the way maybe a Manhattan voter has been taught over the past years, here's a man who's literally Hitler.

01:02:18.420 The only way we can keep him out of the presidency is by you guys doing something.

01:02:22.600 And I think there's definitely going to be some jurors there that think that way.

01:02:26.640 Have you ever been on a jury?

01:02:28.540 No.

01:02:29.300 I meant when I got called for jury duty, I mentioned that I worked for Glenn Beck, and they immediately let me go.

01:02:34.100 I was Glenn Beck, and they let me on.

01:02:36.520 I don't know how.

01:02:37.260 The judge just, he shook his head when they were like, he's good.

01:02:40.680 He just shook his head like, you have no idea what you just did.

01:02:44.060 Anyway, when you're in the jury, you ask the judge questions all the time.

01:02:52.040 Can you ask the judge if we can see this?

01:02:54.300 Can you ask the judge if we can see this?

01:02:55.920 We ask the judge for advice, and he's like, I can't give you any advice.

01:03:00.340 I can't give you this information.

01:03:02.140 But you look at him as the guide.

01:03:06.440 Right.

01:03:06.640 If this judge is as corrupt as I think he is on this particular case, I mean, it's almost impossible not to convict.

01:03:19.920 And the impression that the judge has given over and over again is that the defense have been the bad guys.

01:03:24.520 Right.

01:03:25.120 You know, the defense witnesses have been the bad witnesses.

01:03:27.720 You know, I mean, over and over again, he's tilted the playing field that direction.

01:03:33.160 And we'll ask Alan Dershowitz about the closing arguments and what does the judge, is there any cap on the judge when it comes to instructions?

01:03:46.000 Glenn Beck.

01:03:47.860 Every once in a while, an invention comes along that completely changes everything and makes the world a better place.

01:05:20.920 There's a story that's coming out.

01:05:23.880 In fact, I think it just came out, yes, this morning.

01:05:28.560 The Biden-Harris campaign will hold a press conference with special guests outside of the Manhattan criminal courthouse.

01:05:39.540 I don't know when, but I mean, you want to talk about something to affect an election.

01:05:48.040 They are sure acting like they know the results of this, aren't they?

01:05:51.080 I don't know how they would, but they are sure acting like they know what's going to happen.

01:05:55.360 Alan Dershowitz, welcome to the program.

01:05:57.460 How are you, sir?

01:05:58.900 I'm doing great.

01:05:59.920 I'm very concerned about what's going on in the Manhattan courthouse today because it could hurt America more than it could even hurt Donald Trump.

01:06:06.880 This is the weakest, worst case I've seen in my 60 years of practicing law.

01:06:12.420 And because it's New York and because this is a jury of New Yorkers and a judge, there might be a conviction here.

01:06:19.280 It would be a horrible, horrible blemish, stain on the American justice system if that were to happen.

01:06:25.020 You know, Jonathan Turley wrote a great article, I don't know if you saw it, about this trial.

01:06:32.260 And the last line is something along the lines of, you know, a three-legged stool in every court case.

01:06:40.040 And, you know, this is the most wobbly without a leg to stand on.

01:06:44.720 He said, it's not Donald Trump standing on that stool.

01:06:48.240 That is, that's something that's going to affect all of us deeply.

01:06:54.060 And I don't even know what it means if a court like this can find any man guilty like this because he's unpopular.

01:07:05.820 Where is justice, Alan?

01:07:09.240 Well, or because he's too popular in this case.

01:07:12.340 Yeah.

01:07:12.720 It means that we're becoming more like, we're not there, but more like Stalin and Lavrenti Beria's Soviet Union,

01:07:22.660 where Beria said to Stalin, show me the man and I'll find you the crime.

01:07:27.000 Look, I wrote a book called Get Trump.

01:07:28.600 That's the only explanation for this case going forward, a desire to get Trump.

01:07:34.140 The people, the prosecutors campaigned on the pledge to get Trump.

01:07:39.640 They said they would find a crime.

01:07:42.640 They couldn't find the crime because there is no crime.

01:07:45.300 So they made one up.

01:07:47.540 They put an expired misdemeanor together with some thought crimes,

01:07:53.060 and they came up with an absurd felony in this case.

01:07:58.060 And then they had to use as their main witness a guy who has a long, long history of lying,

01:08:04.340 stealing, and they have to depend on his credibility to prove that Trump actually knew that these payments were being made

01:08:14.040 and were being listed as legal payments rather than as reimbursement for a nondisclosure agreement.

01:08:19.720 It's the most absurd.

01:08:21.200 I wonder if Cohen will even be charged with a crime.

01:08:25.320 He admitted under oath that he stole.

01:08:29.200 No?

01:08:29.540 Yeah.

01:08:30.220 I was hoping for a Perry Mason moment where when he said that on the witness stand,

01:08:35.180 the police would come in and put the handcuffs on him and take him away.

01:08:37.880 But that didn't happen.

01:08:38.820 It should have.

01:08:39.500 Yeah.

01:08:39.680 Tell me, I was on a jury once, and the judge, we kept asking him, and he would come in,

01:08:47.380 and he'd say, I can't tell you anything.

01:08:48.920 I can't tell you that.

01:08:49.980 We'd ask the bailiff, can we get this from the judge, et cetera.

01:08:53.100 And the judge, I don't know, he was in a position of power, and he really seemed like our friend

01:09:02.440 and really seemed like we could trust him to make the right decision.

01:09:08.980 You know what I mean?

01:09:10.180 And that's a real problem with our system of justice.

01:09:12.740 This judge, for example, is a benevolent despot when the jury is there.

01:09:18.120 He'd be so nice to the jury, but as soon as the jury goes out, and I was in the courtroom,

01:09:24.180 I was one of the only spectators allowed to stay in the courtroom.

01:09:27.480 When he emptied the courtroom of all reporters, then his true sense came out.

01:09:33.300 He looked like a—remember the psycho in Taxi Driver?

01:09:37.520 You talking to me? 0.98

01:09:38.860 You looking at me?

01:09:39.900 You talking to me?

01:09:41.160 That's what he was basically saying to the witness.

01:09:43.460 He hated the fact that the witness raised his eyes or stared at him, and he threatened

01:09:52.060 to strike the witness's testimony.

01:09:54.760 The jury should have seen that.

01:09:56.360 And by the way, the American public should have seen that the whole case should have been

01:09:59.260 on television.

01:10:00.180 And the fact that it isn't on television is terrible.

01:10:03.460 The thing here with the judge, he gives the instructions.

01:10:08.540 How horribly could that go wrong with him, or are there some limits to what he gives as

01:10:20.100 instructions?

01:10:21.040 The limits come in the Court of Appeals, and that might come only after the election.

01:10:24.920 For example, the crucial instruction is going to be, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the

01:10:29.860 prosecution could have caused—called Alan Weisselberg.

01:10:34.380 He was the other person at that alleged meeting where the crime occurred, and the only other

01:10:41.560 witness at that meeting was Cohen, who you shouldn't believe.

01:10:45.400 But Weisselberg could have been called.

01:10:47.260 The prosecution didn't call him.

01:10:48.580 They could have given immunity if he had pleaded the Fifth Amendment, but they didn't do it.

01:10:52.480 And you should therefore infer that had they called him, he would have given testimony

01:10:57.160 adverse to the prosecution.

01:10:58.900 But he can't say that in the closing—he can't say that in closing arguments, right?

01:11:03.640 He can, if the judge allows that instruction to be given.

01:11:07.620 If I were the defense attorney, let me tell you what I would do.

01:11:10.800 I would get a life-size picture of Alan Weisselberg.

01:11:14.900 I would put it in the witness stand, and I would say, ladies and gentlemen, you see this

01:11:19.200 picture?

01:11:19.860 That's all you're going to see, just the picture.

01:11:21.820 Because the prosecution made a decision not to call this witness.

01:11:26.180 And when you go in that jury room, I want you to be thinking of that picture.

01:11:29.740 I want you to think of why only a picture and not the real witness appeared in this courtroom.

01:11:36.860 And would the judge allow that?

01:11:39.400 I don't know.

01:11:40.200 I would try it, certainly.

01:11:41.440 And he can't say—he cannot bring up that the FEC was not allowed to—

01:11:48.400 No, he's not going to be able to bring that up.

01:11:50.440 There's a lot of things he can't bring up.

01:11:51.940 He wasn't allowed to introduce an expert witness who is the country's leading expert

01:11:56.440 on the FEC.

01:11:58.180 The jury is going to be allowed to conclude that maybe this was an election fraud, even

01:12:05.320 though the experts say it wasn't.

01:12:07.680 So there's a lot of problems with this case.

01:12:10.620 Alan, what does your gut tell you that's going to happen after the closing arguments

01:12:15.980 on both sides?

01:12:16.580 My gut says possibly hung jury.

01:12:19.520 Let me tell you why.

01:12:20.820 I was in the courtroom, and I was watching the jurors very carefully, and I couldn't

01:12:23.820 tell whether they were inclined toward conviction or acquittal.

01:12:27.160 What I could tell is they didn't seem to like each other that much.

01:12:30.960 They didn't seem to have a close relationship, which jurors sometimes have.

01:12:34.780 And that is more—that inclines one to think that maybe they won't agree, maybe they'll

01:12:40.480 be hung jury.

01:12:41.540 But we won't know.

01:12:43.900 Alan, thank you so much.

01:12:45.200 I know you're a busy, busy man.

01:12:47.000 Thank you.

01:12:47.460 God bless you.

01:12:48.140 You bet.

01:12:49.900 That is—I guess that's good news.

01:12:53.820 But it's weird.

01:12:54.620 The dynamics in a jury room is weird.

01:12:57.940 Unless you've ever sat on a jury in a serious case, you really kind of don't know.

01:13:06.540 It's, you know, people do divide themselves, and they become teams, and if they don't like

01:13:16.480 each other, New Yorkers, oof.

01:13:19.620 Because people are people, you know, and if one side is, you know, going after somebody

01:13:29.100 and he's like, I'm not changing, sorry, I'm not changing, even if it's just out of, you

01:13:37.660 know, spite.

01:13:39.360 Yeah, you know, I don't know.

01:13:41.000 Maybe—let me let some of the optimism seep in here for just a moment.

01:13:45.060 That was optimistic.

01:13:46.720 I know.

01:13:47.060 I'm trying to play along here a little bit.

01:13:49.200 Like, 30-some-odd percent of New Yorkers voted for Donald Trump, right?

01:13:54.900 And while we all know the odds are you walk up to any individual New Yorker, they're going

01:14:00.500 to hate Donald Trump.

01:14:02.860 Donald Trump and his team of attorneys had an opportunity to get rid of a lot of people

01:14:07.120 they thought would be problems.

01:14:09.180 I mean, they allowed 12 people in that they believed at least had the opportunity to be

01:14:14.820 won over.

01:14:15.780 And if you have just the average person who's not a partisan on either side, look at the

01:14:20.940 evidence in this case, you would think they would at least—at least some of them would

01:14:25.200 come to the conclusion that this is nonsense.

01:14:29.060 Then again, you had Robert De Niro on the streets in front of the courthouse.

01:14:33.120 Do you see this?

01:14:33.700 Yeah, this was the big special guest for the Biden campaign.

01:14:36.220 I don't know.

01:14:37.100 Yeah, I think it was.

01:14:37.920 I don't know.

01:14:37.940 Was it?

01:14:38.400 Yeah.

01:14:39.180 He's declaring that Donald Trump is a tyrant, that if he gets into office, he'll never leave

01:14:47.320 the White House.

01:14:49.000 I mean, it is—and it is time to finally stop Donald Trump.

01:14:54.100 These—I have to tell you, I would have private security if I were Donald Trump, along with

01:14:59.760 Secret Service.

01:15:01.040 I might even dump the Secret Service. 0.99

01:15:06.320 These people are mad.

01:15:08.080 They're just—they're just—it's madness that's going on. 0.76

01:15:11.860 And if you really believe, because of the campaign, that he's Hitler, then anything is called 0.61

01:15:19.660 for.

01:15:20.500 I mean, how many times have you had the discussion, even when you were a kid, if you go back in 0.99

01:15:24.540 time and kill baby Hitler, would you do it? 0.97

01:15:29.220 You know, I mean— 1.00

01:15:30.100 You'd wait until he's an annoying teenager, then you'd go for it.

01:15:33.640 Nah, you just leave a gun on the counter next to Mom. 1.00

01:15:39.280 He's a teenager.

01:15:40.600 At some point, she'll be ready to use it.

01:15:43.060 Yeah.

01:15:43.500 At some point.

01:15:44.700 All right.

01:15:45.100 Back in just a second.

01:15:47.280 Joseph wrote in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.

01:15:50.720 That was my answer, by the way, because that way I wasn't guilty of murder, even if it was a bad

01:15:56.120 thing.

01:15:56.200 Oh, okay.

01:15:56.680 Yeah.

01:15:57.280 Anyway, Joseph says, my beagle is 17 years old, and he was sleeping 20 hours a day.

01:16:05.340 He wasn't active.

01:16:06.300 I was afraid he was going to die soon.

01:16:07.720 I tried Rough Greens.

01:16:09.080 20 days later, I'm amazed.

01:16:11.020 He's wagging his tail again.

01:16:12.640 I know he's happier.

01:16:13.840 His food and Rough Greens are gone every day.

01:16:16.320 He's eating well and more active.

01:16:18.060 I'm amazed by Rough Greens.

01:16:20.440 Thank you so much for giving me my buddy again.

01:16:23.500 Joseph, thanks for writing in.

01:16:25.100 Rough Greens is not a dog food.

01:16:26.740 It's a supplement that you put on the dog's food.

01:16:30.220 It was developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.

01:16:33.840 Remember, brown food is dead food.

01:16:35.760 You want the green stuff.

01:16:37.380 The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to love it, that they

01:16:44.040 have a special deal for you.

01:16:45.140 Just go to roughgreens, ruffgreens.com slash beck, or call 833-GLEN-33.

01:16:51.040 They're going to give you your first trial bag for free.

01:16:53.880 Free.

01:16:54.260 All you pay for is shipping.

01:16:55.760 833-GLEN-33, roughgreens.com slash beck.

01:17:01.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:17:15.140 The country has just gone insane.

01:17:25.500 And please make your motto, save the republic or God save the republic, because there are

01:17:32.180 people that are saying, we need to get away from this on our side.

01:17:35.400 Yeah.

01:17:35.740 We need to get away from this.

01:17:37.260 You know, this isn't working because we're not God-fearing people.

01:17:40.320 Well, no, no, we're not.

01:17:42.960 But maybe we should work on that and keep the Constitution and Bill of Rights and stay

01:17:49.040 away from any kind of, you know, religious authority or any kind of despot kind of authority.

01:17:57.080 If Donald Trump got in and he started breaking the Constitution and doing things unconstitutionally,

01:18:03.080 I'd be with everybody on the left saying, no.

01:18:09.020 Mm-hmm.

01:18:10.100 And I think when you say your slogan, God save the republic, from outdoor transmission of

01:18:15.100 COVID-19 in the year 2024, is the rest of that?

01:18:18.540 What is that?

01:18:18.960 I don't.

01:18:19.400 Because I was watching the Robert De Niro campaign event for Joe Biden out front of the courthouse

01:18:23.860 and he walked up to the microphones with a COVID mask on outdoors.

01:18:29.220 Now, this.

01:18:30.100 Well, he didn't want to be around a crowd of people.

01:18:32.220 Well, then he took it off to do the speech around much more, far more people, all of

01:18:36.960 which, by the way, were not wearing masks as they walked up.

01:18:39.880 He was the only one wearing a mask. 0.75

01:18:41.280 So he's the only one that's still nuts. 0.50

01:18:44.660 I wouldn't say that. 0.98

01:18:45.960 I would say there's many more people in Manhattan that are nuts, but he is the only one wearing 0.98

01:18:49.560 the mask. 0.99

01:18:50.140 That's crazy.

01:18:50.760 And this is despite, you know, the fact that the New York Times has even written, there

01:18:53.960 has never been a case of outdoor COVID-19 transmission outside of close conversation.

01:19:00.420 So really wearing a mask outside, not beneficial in any way, and has never, even the mainstream

01:19:08.200 media has admitted this going back five years almost at this point.

01:19:12.400 He's gone. 0.61

01:19:13.240 He's gone insane. 0.98

01:19:14.860 He is sitting here and he's talking about, you know, how Donald Trump is a dictator. 0.91

01:19:22.120 He's going to never leave the White House.

01:19:24.840 Now, let me ask. 0.77

01:19:25.600 Lifetime dictator.

01:19:26.880 Do you remember what happened with Gabby Giffords?

01:19:30.420 And Sarah Palin said she's targeting this district. 0.74

01:19:34.080 A madman went because I think he was. 0.64

01:19:37.440 Grammar. 0.99

01:19:37.900 He was.

01:19:38.020 Yeah, it was grammar.

01:19:38.840 He was obsessed with grammar.

01:19:39.820 Grammar.

01:19:40.480 And he shot Gabby Giffords.

01:19:42.240 Yeah.

01:19:42.460 And the media said it's the language.

01:19:45.100 Look at what they're teaching the American people.

01:19:48.120 Yeah.

01:19:48.260 They are teaching him he's never going to leave.

01:19:51.300 He's a lifetime dictator.

01:19:53.360 He's going to destroy the country and democracy.

01:19:56.700 He's got to be stopped by any means necessary.

01:20:00.680 What do you think the message that's being received to crazy people? 1.00

01:20:08.040 They'll kill this guy. 0.99

01:20:09.960 If they can't get him in prison, I think somebody on the left will kill this guy. 1.00

01:20:15.240 This is madness, and it has to stop. 0.86

01:20:20.940 And this is just the beginning.

01:20:22.260 They're just starting to embrace this thing.

01:20:23.700 Oh, I know.

01:20:24.160 There's a big story this week, and I can't remember the New York Times or Politico somewhere

01:20:27.160 where they were talking about the strategy related to this trial and previewing what we

01:20:31.220 saw here with Robert De Niro today, that this is going to be a big push.

01:20:35.820 And it almost, I mentioned this earlier, almost seems like they know the outcome.

01:20:39.440 Wait until tomorrow night on my special, you say, you know, you're seeing the stuff that

01:20:46.800 Biden is doing.

01:20:47.720 That's the stuff out loud.

01:20:50.440 You should see the stuff that's happening and churning beneath the surface for this campaign.

01:20:56.280 It is horrific.

01:21:01.000 Just last week, there was a story about the anti-Israel protesters who seized control of

01:21:08.260 the Institute of Politics, University of Chicago.

01:21:10.860 They have now called for terrorism this summer.

01:21:15.720 I'm quoting, we must escalate our actions against all governments, institutions, and corporations

01:21:20.960 who participate in profit off and enable genocide.

01:21:24.600 There must be consequences to their property, income, reputation, privacy, and safety.

01:21:33.480 And the government is doing nothing.

01:21:37.800 Why are we in a color revolution?

01:21:42.720 That's tomorrow night at 9 p.m. Eastern on blazetv.com.

01:21:47.360 You must be prepared for what this summer and fall is going to bring.

01:21:52.260 We're going to give you a taste of it with all of the evidence tomorrow night, 9 p.m. Eastern.

01:22:00.280 Big blackboard coming out.

01:22:01.740 I'm feeling a blackboard.

01:22:03.520 Are we in a color revolution?

01:22:05.800 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:22:26.540 We have no room to compromise.

01:22:47.840 We've got to stay together.

01:22:51.380 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:23:19.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:26.900 Hello, America.

01:23:27.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:29.160 We're so glad you're here.

01:23:30.780 There is something that happened over the weekend.

01:23:33.640 We spoke about it earlier, but I want to talk to Justin Haskins.

01:23:38.200 He's my co-author of The Great Reset and Dark Future, and he and his team spent a lot of time at the Heartland Institute for Socialism.

01:23:52.460 He's a research center director there.

01:23:54.580 And what happened in Europe in the last few days is something that we all need to know because it will affect every one of us in America, Canada, all over the world.

01:24:09.300 Well, probably except for China, who's just going to get a pass for some reason. 1.00

01:24:13.300 But we'll talk about that in 60 seconds.

01:24:16.580 Stand by.

01:24:18.020 All right.

01:24:18.420 Listen, we talked to you last hour about Freddie Mac.

01:24:23.680 Freddie Mac is a government-backed institution that was one of the reasons why we had the crash in 08, a big one, because they would give loans to people that couldn't get loans anywhere else for a reason.

01:24:37.680 Well, Joe Biden has now decided that, you know, just before the election, he's going to give out second mortgages.

01:24:46.160 It could be as much as $5 trillion of your money being backed up for people, giving people loans so they can spend it in the economy.

01:24:58.120 You want to get a second mortgage, pay off your debt.

01:25:01.120 That's good. If you can get a, you know, 6% mortgage over a 25% mortgage, absolutely.

01:25:12.100 But now the government is doing it, $5 trillion, and most people are going to dump it into the economy.

01:25:20.320 What do you think that's going to do to the dollar and inflation?

01:25:23.500 We are already spending out of control, $1 trillion every 100 days.

01:25:28.820 Please, I beg of you, I beg of you, please find out if gold or silver is right for you.

01:25:37.700 You know, I don't know if you've seen the price of gold and silver and all of the other things that people are counting on, Bitcoin, going through the roof.

01:25:47.600 Why? Why? Because my grandfather used to say, if we only knew what the rich people knew.

01:25:53.900 Well, what are the rich people and what are the central banks of the entire world doing?

01:25:59.460 They're buying gold.

01:26:01.640 Please go to Lear Capital right now.

01:26:04.180 Find out, get a free wealth protection guide.

01:26:06.700 I beg you to do this.

01:26:08.600 Just 10% of what you might have saved.

01:26:11.460 800-957-GOLD.

01:26:13.560 800-957-GOLD.

01:26:16.280 Call them now.

01:26:17.240 I kind of feel passionately about that.

01:26:21.960 Justin Askins is with us now.

01:26:23.980 Hello, Justin.

01:26:24.620 How are you?

01:26:26.540 I'm doing okay.

01:26:28.260 Today is a very dark day, Glenn.

01:26:32.020 Today is a very dark day.

01:26:33.600 And I'm not referring to the social credit scoring system in Europe that's going to transform all of life in America and probably destroy freedom.

01:26:40.880 I'm talking about coming on the air, having to admit that I'm wrong and that you were right.

01:26:47.520 I wasn't going to bring it up.

01:26:48.520 And now I'm never going to be able to live it down.

01:26:49.960 I wasn't going to bring it up.

01:26:51.740 I mentioned it behind your back, but I was never going to bring it up.

01:26:56.580 No, you know what, you know, I just, I'm such a cynic on, on especially the EU and now our government that they'll do, they'll do the wrong thing every time, every time.

01:27:11.440 And what they passed, when was it, this weekend, Friday?

01:27:17.440 Friday.

01:27:17.980 Friday.

01:27:18.400 Friday, yep.

01:27:19.100 Okay.

01:27:19.420 What they passed is a little terrifying because everything we talked about in Dark Future and the Great Reset is now in stone.

01:27:31.000 Please explain this to people.

01:27:33.480 Right.

01:27:34.040 So for three years, you and I have been warning people about this pending legislation that was working its way through the massive bureaucracy of the European Union and their legislative process that would essentially create a global social credit scoring system

01:27:54.540 that would be imposed on companies that do business in Europe, companies that are based in Europe, and then many of the companies that they do business with.

01:28:04.660 So we're not talking about just European companies.

01:28:07.560 We're talking about American companies that do business in Europe and American companies that do business with someone who does business in Europe.

01:28:15.120 So massive, massive numbers of companies.

01:28:17.760 And I think that'll go all the way down the chain.

01:28:20.000 We were talking about this.

01:28:21.440 That goes all the way down the chain.

01:28:23.380 If you are Philco and you are providing the radios and the stereos in a Ford, everybody who makes a part, Philco is part of it now because they're selling to Ford.

01:28:37.400 But everyone who makes a part for Philco, I believe, will also be a part because it goes down the chain all the way, right?

01:28:46.620 Yeah, I mean, that is essentially how it works.

01:28:49.300 There are some exceptions to this, but I'll give you a specific example because the law is incredibly complicated.

01:28:56.120 I'll give you a specific example that I think a lot of people can relate to.

01:29:00.520 This is related to the agricultural industry, okay?

01:29:02.860 This covers all sorts of things, not just agriculture.

01:29:05.700 But this is one specific example.

01:29:07.700 There's a company called Bayer.

01:29:09.640 Now, everybody has heard of Bayer.

01:29:11.520 This is like Bayer Aspirin, that company.

01:29:13.620 It's a major pharmaceutical company.

01:29:15.120 Yeah, I believe they used to make the Zyklon. 0.91

01:29:17.240 Isn't that the company that made the Zyklon B to kill all the Jews? 0.99

01:29:20.480 I'm not sure.

01:29:21.460 We'll look into it.

01:29:22.660 Check that.

01:29:23.720 So they are based in Germany.

01:29:27.100 And they, several years back, bought a large – they're a $50 billion company.

01:29:32.680 They're covered by this ESG law that's happening in Europe now.

01:29:36.240 They bought a company several years back called Monsanto.

01:29:41.260 Monsanto is one of the largest biotech companies, or it was, in the world.

01:29:46.920 They were based in Missouri.

01:29:49.380 Now, Monsanto owns a whole bunch of agricultural companies in the United States.

01:29:54.680 They did.

01:29:55.780 They're now all owned by Bayer.

01:29:57.960 So, for example, there's a company called American Seeds, which owns a bunch of seed companies.

01:30:04.760 This is all now owned by Bayer.

01:30:07.640 They are – Bayer is now one of the largest agricultural companies in the United States.

01:30:13.160 They're one of the largest seed companies in the United States.

01:30:16.060 So all of these farmers all across the United States that are buying seeds, many of them are buying seeds from Bayer, which now has to comply with these ESG rules.

01:30:27.020 And so think of all of these farmers, not just the farmers, but all of the transportation companies, all of the storage companies, the warehouses, all of the people who are supplying parts and machines related to these various businesses.

01:30:45.140 Many of them, not all of them, but many of them are going to be directly or indirectly tied to this ESG law, and that's just one tiny part of it.

01:30:55.640 There are a million different ways that the tentacles of this is going to reach out into American society.

01:31:02.280 You could be just a owner-operator of a transportation truck.

01:31:07.620 You have your own truck.

01:31:08.680 You're an owner-operator.

01:31:09.640 You're a one-person show.

01:31:11.280 And you're just driving seeds around Iowa.

01:31:14.340 And if you happen to do business with one of these businesses that's owned by Bayer, you're going to have to comply with these rules too.

01:31:21.000 And it goes on and on and on and on and on down the line.

01:31:24.100 Now, people will say, and please read Dark Future if you haven't read it yet, listen to the audio tape.

01:31:33.540 I try to make it a little more fun because it's, I mean, it's talking about this stuff, or The Great Reset.

01:31:40.680 I highly recommend that you read both of those because that is now spelling the future, and this was one of the big ones.

01:31:49.860 We could stop ESG, possibly, and we've done a good job at moving in that direction, but we didn't stop it.

01:31:57.200 We can stop it in our own states and hopefully in our own government.

01:32:03.640 But we told you the Trump card on that, sorry, Donald Trump, the Trump card on that is if the EU passes it, then we have to do it if we want to do business with the EU.

01:32:17.080 Well, of course we want to do business with the EU, and it would not only mean that we wouldn't be selling stuff to them, it would mean, I believe, they can't buy stuff from us, right?

01:32:30.200 Yeah, if you're a business in the European Union and you're buying something from a company that's based in the United States, like say you're an energy company in the United States and you're getting natural gas out of the ground and you're selling natural gas to Europe, yes, this is going to apply to you directly.

01:32:48.260 There's no question about it, and then all of the companies that that natural gas company is doing business with are also going to be caught up in this too.

01:32:57.760 This is the most diabolical plan that I've ever seen.

01:33:05.520 It is now the law in Europe, and unless the United States of America stands up immediately and says, nope, you can do this to everybody else, but you can't do this to us.

01:33:16.220 Unless they do that immediately, the fundamental transformation of the United States of America that Barack Obama talked about, that all the Great Reset people were talking about four years ago.

01:33:27.920 Anybody who has talked about a global governance system, this is it.

01:33:35.380 All of those things, this is it.

01:33:37.620 And it passed in the EU.

01:33:40.920 Now, I immediately sent this to a couple of friends in Washington and said, this is the most important thing you can talk about and work on right now.

01:33:54.660 Nothing else trumps this.

01:33:56.340 With all of the problems we have, nothing else.

01:34:00.160 Do you believe that, Justin?

01:34:02.420 That is 1,000% true.

01:34:05.240 This affects everything else.

01:34:06.640 You will not hear about this on 99% of podcasts because 99% of podcasts aren't following this.

01:34:17.500 They don't know what it is, and it's not a story here.

01:34:20.740 It's a European thing.

01:34:22.600 This is crucial that you understand and you begin to talk to your senators and your congressmen that you vote for somebody who will stop this.

01:34:35.020 This puts all of the Great Reset plans from Europe, which now will have to do it, into the United States and everywhere else.

01:34:47.480 And I will bet you, Justin, it will not affect China. 0.98

01:34:51.300 China will say, screw you. 0.97

01:34:53.320 You don't want our products, don't buy our products. 0.98

01:34:55.560 And they'll end up buying their products.

01:34:58.000 You agree?

01:34:58.380 Yes, I completely agree.

01:35:00.760 And the reason for that is because the way that they set up the enforcement mechanisms in this was very tricky.

01:35:06.460 Essentially, what they did was say, all the countries of the European Union have to pass laws that comply with this law.

01:35:13.180 And then it's up to each individual country to enforce those laws.

01:35:16.960 So, in other words, if the countries of the European Union decide, we're not going to enforce the law on China, then they don't have to enforce the law on China.

01:35:27.400 And so, I think that's exactly what's going to happen.

01:35:30.420 This is a license for European Union countries to go after anyone they want or to not go after anyone they want, depending on what their agenda is.

01:35:39.900 And so, China absolutely will get a pass, and we won't.

01:35:42.360 And before we lose all of our status in the world and all of our ability to sell anything, we have to have a president, a senate, and a congress that will stand up to Europe and say, we're not playing ball.

01:36:00.280 And if that's it, then fine.

01:36:02.800 We won't sell any of our products to you.

01:36:05.000 But we are not going to bend our knee to the European Union.

01:36:12.260 No.

01:36:13.960 Yes.

01:36:14.600 And the disinformation and misinformation parts of this bill, I don't know how much time we have left, but...

01:36:21.400 Hang on, hang on, hang on.

01:36:22.660 Let me stop here.

01:36:24.320 I'll take one minute, then you come back, because this is really important.

01:36:27.300 It's freedom of speech as well.

01:36:28.920 Now, the republic is over as you know it, if we don't stop it here in America, and you've got two years to do it.

01:36:38.320 Back in just a second.

01:36:39.660 Today is the day you have to make an important decision.

01:36:43.180 You keep your current cell phone plan, you know, the one where you shell out big money every month to a big mobile corporation that donates money to leftist causes and puts us in the situation we're in right now.

01:36:54.080 Or you could change to Patriot Mobile, which doesn't do any of that.

01:36:59.920 In fact, is fighting against these things and charges way less for the service and shares your values.

01:37:07.240 I mean, how easy is this?

01:37:09.060 This is easier than the jury has on the Trump trial.

01:37:13.600 Don't be like a Trump juror.

01:37:16.220 Make the right decision the easy decision.

01:37:19.820 It's patriotmobile.com slash back or call 972-PATRIOT.

01:37:23.480 972-PATRIOT.

01:37:25.620 Now, you get a free month of service if you use the promo code BEC, so make sure you do that.

01:37:31.520 Join me.

01:37:32.120 Make the switch today.

01:37:33.860 Patriotmobile.com slash BEC.

01:37:35.660 That's patriotmobile.com slash BEC.

01:37:38.120 Or call 972-PATRIOT.

01:37:40.840 Ten seconds.

01:37:41.760 Station ID.

01:37:52.360 All right.

01:37:53.480 Justin, tell me how this affects free speech.

01:37:59.520 Okay.

01:38:00.020 So there are a number of provisions in this, and we're still working our way through it.

01:38:04.740 It's more than 100 pages long, and it cites a bunch of other agreements, international agreements, human rights, policies, other things in the European Union, which are also many pages long.

01:38:16.140 And so we're talking about hundreds and hundreds of pages of legislation that we're going through.

01:38:20.900 But one of the things that comes up over and over and over again is misinformation and disinformation.

01:38:26.800 That companies can't, that they have to make sure they have policies that are making sure that on various topics, like, say, climate change, for example, and things like that, that they're not supporting misinformation and disinformation.

01:38:41.040 Well, one of the companies, and there are many, but one of the companies that would fall under this legislation is a company called Apple.

01:38:48.900 I don't know, maybe some of your audience has heard of Apple before.

01:38:52.720 Apple not only is one of the largest tech companies in the world.

01:38:56.940 They make all of the, you know, iPhones and computers and all of that stuff.

01:39:00.700 But they're also the largest podcast company in the world.

01:39:05.720 They have the largest podcasting platform.

01:39:08.720 Think of all the other companies that are doing Europe, business in Europe, communications companies, social media companies, Facebook, all of these companies.

01:39:17.420 I heart radio.

01:39:19.640 Yeah.

01:39:19.920 I heart radio.

01:39:21.340 Yes.

01:39:21.880 That's right.

01:39:22.120 They're all going to have to comply as well, including with the provisions that are related to misinformation and disinformation, and not just in their own company, but also with the companies that they're doing business with on the upstream side of their businesses.

01:39:37.700 So this is going to impact everything.

01:39:41.000 This is going to impact this radio show, potentially.

01:39:44.160 That's the kind of thing that we are dealing with in the long run here.

01:39:48.440 This is the end game that we've been warning about forever.

01:39:52.120 This is why we started the blaze, but understand that the blaze is an app.

01:40:01.640 Apple has, you know, the market on, uh, apps.

01:40:06.240 That means if this, well, it will, because it's gone through, it's already been, but if we don't stop it in America, you will not be able to find the blaze on an app.

01:40:17.080 Also, I heart, one of the bigger, uh, podcasts, I don't know, even know how many podcasts they have, like 800 different podcasts.

01:40:26.160 They go to Europe, uh, they go all over the world.

01:40:31.920 I don't know how much money they're making, and I don't know how much money Apple is making just on the podcast division.

01:40:37.880 No, it doesn't matter, does it?

01:40:39.940 It doesn't matter if it's a division.

01:40:41.720 It's the whole company.

01:40:43.960 So, that's right.

01:40:44.760 So, this radio show could lose all of our reach just because this passed.

01:40:54.380 You, you know, unfortunately, I didn't see it coming this way, but I've been saying there's coming a day where my voice will not be heard.

01:41:03.260 You will have to search for it, uh, if it's even allowed to be on.

01:41:08.340 My voice and other voices, you know, uh, uh, even Joe Rogan, uh, all of our good friends, Dave Rubin, all of them, Ben Shapiro, gone.

01:41:21.840 Because we will not comply with what the Europeans are telling us to do. 0.59

01:41:27.380 But if we do that, Apple, Google, everyone else will have to cancel us.

01:41:37.080 This is cancel culture with an army.

01:41:42.840 That's right.

01:41:44.040 And, and America has, is probably the only country in the world that is large enough other than, you know, China.

01:41:52.080 We're the only country that's freedom-oriented in the world that's large enough to go to the European Union and say, no, no.

01:41:59.420 See, Canada can't do that. 0.99

01:42:01.060 A lot of other countries in the world can't do that.

01:42:03.080 They're going to have to comply.

01:42:04.380 But we don't need Europe as badly as Europe needs us.

01:42:07.980 That's just a fact.

01:42:09.100 They need our energy.

01:42:10.280 They need our products.

01:42:11.280 They need our technology.

01:42:13.040 They need us far more than we need them.

01:42:16.000 And we have the leverage economically to stand up to them and say, no, we're not going to comply with this.

01:42:22.080 This is not going to happen to our companies.

01:42:24.080 It's not going to happen.

01:42:25.600 But we need a president who's going to support those policies.

01:42:30.080 And we don't have that right now.

01:42:31.500 We have the most pro-ESG president, the most globalist president that we've had in 100 years.

01:42:37.800 And that's, and that's a huge part of the problem.

01:42:40.680 So we've heard this said a thousand times.

01:42:43.300 I've mocked it before, the idea that this is the most important election of our lifetimes, all of that.

01:42:50.200 But if you're not paying, you know, if you're paying attention to what's going on right now, how can anyone disagree with that?

01:42:57.080 We're talking about the end of freedom in America.

01:43:00.580 Not, and that's not hyperbole.

01:43:01.940 We're talking about actually ending freedom in America.

01:43:04.740 We're talking about misinformation and disinformation rules, wholesale destruction of various parts of our economy, European social justice standards being imposed.

01:43:14.520 Control of our food, control of our food, absolutely.

01:43:19.700 And it's just, and we're just scratching the surface.

01:43:21.980 The other important thing to keep in mind is that not only are we still figuring out what else is in this, think about the ramifications for gun rights and things like that.

01:43:29.980 But in addition to all of that, we also have the potential for more rules in the future.

01:43:36.240 Okay.

01:43:36.440 We can always just pass more.

01:43:38.100 Justin, we'll probably hit this again.

01:43:41.460 Give us some, you know, updated information.

01:43:44.240 We really need to teach America what this is about because they won't hear it anywhere else.

01:43:48.860 We'll have you on later this week if you can join us.

01:43:52.500 Absolutely, Glenn.

01:43:53.240 Thank you very much.

01:43:54.020 Justin Haskins.

01:43:55.460 You can see all this in The Great Reset and Dark Future.

01:44:01.080 The book that we wrote that talked about all of this and, you know, Justin kept saying, you know, this is so crazy.

01:44:07.940 It's not going to happen.

01:44:08.700 And I'm like, it's going to happen.

01:44:10.300 It has.

01:44:11.460 We're not talking about if or even when.

01:44:15.420 It's done.

01:44:17.140 All right.

01:45:35.540 All right.

01:45:36.740 Welcome to the program.

01:45:37.940 I'm going to talk about a sheriff that is – it's just very, very local.

01:45:44.500 It's not in any news or anything else.

01:45:46.820 But he's a prime example of a guy running and running against somebody that – well, he'll explain the story.

01:45:55.800 Let me just tell you my story.

01:45:59.060 Not this race, not this state. 0.99

01:46:01.020 I have a sheriff in Idaho.

01:46:04.720 We have a choice of two sheriffs because our other sheriff is retiring.

01:46:10.000 And the role of the sheriff is not to aid the federal government in anything.

01:46:22.780 The role of the sheriff, the only elected law enforcement officer, only elected law enforcement officer.

01:46:34.200 The attorney general is not elected.

01:46:37.240 The Department of Justice, he's not elected.

01:46:40.380 He's appointed.

01:46:41.780 Your police chief, appointed.

01:46:43.660 This is the only one that is elected by the people.

01:46:47.880 So they answer to the people and the Constitution of the United States.

01:46:53.540 Now, if a federal agent comes into town and needs to go into a house, the sheriff, who is the local person that in a lot of places, like where I live, you know the sheriff, he's there to come to make sure that the federal government is living up to the Constitution,

01:47:14.260 and they're not breaking down the door of somebody who the sheriff could knock on the door and say, hey, Bill, listen, there's this problem, blah, blah, blah, and that he's there to guard the people against an unrighteous or out-of-control government federal official.

01:47:35.060 That's his job.

01:47:36.160 Now, in Gillespie County, there is a sheriff that, you know, well, I'll let him say exactly what he's running against.

01:47:50.560 Chris Ayala is with us.

01:47:53.400 He is running for the sheriff in Gillespie County.

01:47:59.240 Chris, how are you, sir?

01:48:00.840 I'm good, sir.

01:48:01.560 How are you today, sir?

01:48:02.560 Very good.

01:48:03.100 I want you to, I add you on to make the point of why it's important to pay attention on who is running for sheriff in your county.

01:48:12.720 Tell me about your county and the race that you're in.

01:48:16.460 So I'm currently in a runoff race against the incumbent sheriff.

01:48:20.600 It's extremely important to get out to vote, and something you just said that I wholeheartedly believe.

01:48:26.020 For me, running for sheriff means that I would be elected by the people.

01:48:29.740 I would answer to the 32,000 people that live in Gillespie County, and that's extremely important.

01:48:36.020 I do believe when you're appointed, it tends to be actually more political.

01:48:38.800 But when you answer to the people, that's the only way to look at it, that you answer to them and you work for them.

01:48:44.320 And most importantly, you protect and defend them as a sheriff.

01:48:47.660 So that's why it's important that people understand the role of a sheriff in their county.

01:48:51.580 I think it's extremely important for them to have that knowledge, and for not only that, but for the sheriff to share that with them on a regular basis in open meetings to say, this is what we're looking at, this is what we need to do.

01:49:01.800 And we've unfortunately experienced what you're talking about here in Gillespie County about a year ago.

01:49:07.520 And it involved the ATF, right?

01:49:10.120 Yes, sir, it sure did.

01:49:11.320 So there was apparently some triggers that were sold online that these individuals here in Gillespie County had purchased.

01:49:17.260 They purchased them legally online.

01:49:18.780 They paid their money.

01:49:19.580 The triggers were mailed, and they received them.

01:49:22.220 The ATF showed up in Gillespie County and met up with an investigator.

01:49:27.500 And at that point, they did call these individuals.

01:49:30.740 The problem was is that, and, you know, this is talking to the individuals involved, was that there really was no paperwork.

01:49:37.080 And I believe in due process, and, you know, if they bring in paperwork that's got their T's crossed and their I's dotted and it's proper and it's correct.

01:49:44.920 Correct.

01:49:45.300 And I have a problem with saying, guys, this is what we've got to do.

01:49:48.620 But you said another key factor is that the sheriff should be in to where he can pick up a phone and say, hey, this is what's going on.

01:49:58.200 Can you come in and let's discuss this so we can do what's brought by you as the citizen of this county?

01:50:03.920 And so, basically, they called these individuals up, and then after they admitted that they actually had the trigger, which, you know, I'm going to say talking to the individuals, they had no idea that two ATF agents were sitting there listening to their conversation.

01:50:17.360 So, when they said, yes, we have the trigger, then they were told, well, hey, if you bring them in, there will be no charges filed.

01:50:22.820 You won't have to worry about the ATF coming after you.

01:50:25.740 So, they felt the term compelled.

01:50:28.060 And, you know, one of them, I will say this about all of them that I spoke with, they're all good men, and they don't want any negatives.

01:50:34.000 But when you're told, hey, we won't file charges, they decided, hey, I'll bring the triggers in and I'll turn them in.

01:50:39.940 There was one gentleman that he did not go down without a fight.

01:50:43.520 I won't use the words he shared, but he just said, I don't believe that you're doing, I can't believe you're doing this.

01:50:49.300 In his words, I really felt like they should have mailed me a letter, sent me something in the head of time, not just call me up and put me on the spot, you know, where there was no ways for me to work with anybody at that point.

01:51:00.620 You also had like a 70-year-old woman arrested for January 6th? 1.00

01:51:09.120 Yes, sir.

01:51:09.820 She was one of the J6ers that lived here in the county. 1.00

01:51:12.400 She was arrested for disorderly conduct warrants out of the FBI or out of the federal government's warrant system.

01:51:21.600 She was pulled over for an infraction here in Gillespie County.

01:51:24.320 Yes, sir.

01:51:24.800 And what did the other sheriff do?

01:51:27.560 So realistically, just, you know, I'm going based on what he said at a debate that we had.

01:51:32.680 He basically said that by the time he was aware of it, she was already pretty much being loaded up in a vehicle and then being transported by the FBI.

01:51:39.400 Isn't that the role, though, of the sheriff to say to the FBI, you have any problem with anyone in my county, you come to me first?

01:51:52.020 Absolutely.

01:51:53.140 And I'm going to say this.

01:51:55.420 The deputies are doing what they're told or allowed to do.

01:51:58.580 But to me, and I said this in my public debate that they can see on YouTube, I simply said to me the fact that they didn't call the sheriff, because here's the way I look at it.

01:52:09.180 I will be, if I'm elected, the top law enforcement officer of the county.

01:52:13.280 I do not want to put deputies in a position.

01:52:15.480 I'd rather.

01:52:15.980 And so what I said, the rule, if I'm elected, was that each deputy will know we get up, we wake up Ayala, and he's going to handle this.

01:52:22.720 Because to me, I want it to be between me and the federal government, not between the deputies that are employed by the county and the federal government and me.

01:52:30.020 I want it to be me.

01:52:31.340 I will make that decision.

01:52:32.720 And if they ask, they can say, talk to the sheriff himself.

01:52:35.120 He's the man that made that decision.

01:52:36.400 And I think that's extremely important when it comes to leadership, that you're lower, the guys that are doing the real work and the guys that are hustling out there, putting themselves on the line every day.

01:52:48.640 Those are the guys that should know what the expectations are of your top leader, your sheriff.

01:52:54.680 Because the FBI can come in and just say, we need your deputies.

01:53:02.080 And most sheriffs will just say, okay, but the sheriff can say, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:53:09.560 I need to know what's going on.

01:53:10.920 And then he makes the decision, correct?

01:53:13.540 Absolutely.

01:53:14.320 And when you said something earlier, and I'm going to re-quote you when you said that it's the only elected position, to me, that says volumes to that.

01:53:23.760 And here's the other key thing.

01:53:26.140 Texas, up until 2023, anybody could run for sheriff.

01:53:30.180 You didn't have to have a license in law enforcement.

01:53:32.360 You had a duty to get it after you were elected.

01:53:34.960 But I think that was a safeguard to allow people of the public to say, hey, I don't see what's going on as correct.

01:53:40.460 I don't see that it's right.

01:53:41.980 They're not protecting us to people.

01:53:43.300 And so someone who's had the heart to protect people could also run.

01:53:47.020 But that's been changed as of 2023.

01:53:48.820 So you have to now have a peace officer's license in the state of Texas to run for sheriff.

01:53:53.520 So I really feel that there's a lot of safe proofs that are already in the system.

01:53:58.440 Now, I will say this.

01:54:00.380 I believe in our government.

01:54:01.320 But I think that if I'm elected, the number one role I have to do is to reach out to those offices and say, look, this is my number.

01:54:08.020 Do you have any issues in this county?

01:54:09.860 You please call me directly.

01:54:11.120 And the deputies need to know, hey, we've been told way in advance where to call the sheriff.

01:54:17.040 And here's his number.

01:54:18.200 And I should be available.

01:54:20.000 And then if not the number two man, three man, they should have that knowledge as well.

01:54:23.480 It should be uniform from top to bottom as far as leadership goes.

01:54:28.880 This is a Texas candidate for sheriff in Gillespie County, Chris Ayala.

01:54:35.140 Thank you so much for talking to us, Chris.

01:54:37.600 No, thank you for having me.

01:54:38.740 I appreciate you.

01:54:39.460 Keep up the good work.

01:54:40.480 Thank you.

01:54:41.220 I just wanted to use him as an example of what you need to know, because I've learned a lot about the sheriffs and their relationship with the FBI and ATF.

01:54:50.920 They are supposed to go through the sheriff.

01:54:54.640 And if you don't have a sheriff that is standing up to them, they won't.

01:55:00.580 You need a sheriff that says to the federal government, I protect the Constitution and the rule of law in this county and the people.

01:55:10.160 And I'm with you if we're protecting and defending the Constitution.

01:55:15.460 But I need to know what you want to do to people in my county.

01:55:20.460 And you save people from having a, you know, a door kicked in in the middle of the night, because the idea is the sheriff can go with the FBI in their vans.

01:55:34.180 They can go knock on the door and say, Bob, I know you and there's a problem.

01:55:40.680 And the FBI is here.

01:55:42.540 They want to talk to you about such and such.

01:55:45.280 That's the way it's supposed to be done.

01:55:47.100 Not with a 79-year-old or, yeah, 79 or 69-year-old woman who was parading in the Capitol, surround the house and come in with the, you know, the black masks and everything else. 0.75

01:56:03.640 No.

01:56:05.320 The sheriff.

01:56:06.040 So, please, please, find out who you're voting for, for sheriff, and actually sit down and talk to them or go to a debate, because it's critical, especially now.

01:56:22.260 All right.

01:56:25.720 They invented the better way to get custom window treatments.

01:56:29.780 Actually, it was a mom and dad, and their kids were growing up, and they were selling, you know, blinds and shades and shutters and drapes the, you know, the usual way in a store and, you know.

01:56:41.620 And the kids said, you know, this internet thing's going to become big.

01:56:45.400 And they're like, what?

01:56:47.260 This is back in the early 90s.

01:56:49.000 And so, they developed, they were the first to sell blinds online, and they had to figure out how to make it really super easy to get people to do it in the 90s, even in the early 2000s.

01:57:01.420 Now, they're the biggest, I think, in the world.

01:57:48.260 One of my children, young adults, received a reading list for English over the summer.

01:58:07.040 And I haven't read the books.

01:58:08.500 I've only read the synopsis, and that was enough.

01:58:11.800 One of them was, I think, very woke.

01:58:16.560 I'm not sure, because I haven't read the book.

01:58:19.820 But, boy, the synopsis seemed like, oh, really?

01:58:23.360 We're teaching our kids this now.

01:58:26.000 Can we read a novel that, you know, maybe, you know, Wuthering Heights?

01:58:30.720 You know, great story.

01:58:32.720 There's something to these classics.

01:58:34.840 I don't know why we're not reading that.

01:58:37.040 And then we're also brainwashing our kids with history and everything else.

01:58:41.360 Stories are the most important thing.

01:58:44.060 This is why they're changing our stories.

01:58:47.680 And, you know, somebody wants, you know, you want to read Star Wars or Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, something like that.

01:58:53.880 But we're not.

01:58:54.900 We're reading poison for our kids.

01:58:57.000 This is why I have created a book series for young adults, not because we thought it would be easy or because we thought it would make a lot of money, because I don't think it will, actually.

01:59:09.380 But it's because nobody was doing this for young adults, and they have to.

01:59:14.220 And it teaches them history.

01:59:16.360 It's an adventure.

01:59:17.400 It's called Chasing Embers.

01:59:19.700 It's a dystopian adventure for teens set in the post-Great Reset world.

01:59:24.100 It's a warning what happens when we forget our history and our story.

01:59:30.240 But instead of a, you know, dry, boring history book that nobody, you know, in 17 will read, Chasing Embers is the first book in a series that will take your kids on an epic adventure.

01:59:43.280 Now, it comes out July 23rd.

01:59:45.760 And, you know, when you publish a book, you get what are called galleys.

01:59:49.780 They're very rare.

01:59:50.660 And these galleys are sent to influential people, you know.

01:59:56.480 So, you know, you send them to other shows so they can talk about it and read and go, this is such a great book.

02:00:02.440 I think the most influential people are you.
