The Glenn Beck Program - Listen Closely, GOP, THIS Is the Secret to Winning ｜ Guest： Scott Presler

00:00:00.000 Let me tell you a little bit about, you know, when I walk in front of a mirror, especially after the holiday season, I'm looking at myself saying, hey, fatty, fat, fat.

00:00:06.840 So how's it working?

00:00:08.340 And it's not working out well for me.

00:00:10.420 No, no.

00:00:11.720 You know, you know how much I hate exercise.

00:00:14.000 I have got to start exercising or I'll be dead by in a year.

00:00:18.180 It's just give or take.

00:00:19.580 Could be could be 18 months.

00:00:21.000 Yeah.

00:00:21.420 Could be six.

00:00:22.240 Could be six.

00:00:22.660 Yeah.

00:00:23.100 Yeah.

00:00:23.640 OK.

00:01:50.180 Here is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:56.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:01.440 Hi, I'm Johnny Cash.

00:02:03.680 I've kind of decided that I'm just going to start wearing black or dark colors.

00:02:10.100 You know, Johnny Cash did it, you know, for the Lord.

00:02:12.200 I'm doing it because I'm just fat.

00:02:15.540 And there's nothing.

00:02:17.380 You know, maybe I could walk around with a green screen.

00:02:20.720 I don't know.

00:02:21.760 But, woo!

00:02:22.920 Welcome to the program.

00:02:24.240 We're glad you're here.

00:02:25.080 I would like to talk about terrorism.

00:02:30.640 Because apparently that's what's going on according to Dan Crenshaw in Washington.

00:02:37.300 We begin there in 60 seconds.

00:02:40.580 So, fatty, fat, fat.

00:02:42.140 So, how is the New Year's resolution going on?

00:02:45.980 How's it going, huh?

00:02:47.140 Have you done it?

00:02:48.080 You broken it yet?

00:02:50.120 Here's a really easy New Year's resolution.

00:02:53.920 I'm not going to go bankrupt fixing my car.

00:02:56.920 How about that one?

00:02:57.660 If you don't have a warranty on your car, you know it's just a matter of time.

00:03:04.360 It's like having health insurance.

00:03:06.840 When your car gets a cold, okay, I can go and fix that.

00:03:11.440 But if your car has cancer, if your car has something major, you know, big things like a chip,

00:03:19.800 it could cost you thousands of dollars.

00:03:22.480 And that's where CarShield comes in.

00:03:24.220 They have protection plans for around $100 a month.

00:03:26.800 All you have to do is choose the mechanic to do the work,

00:03:29.860 and CarShield administrators handle everything else.

00:03:33.020 It's incredibly easy to do, and it'll save you so much hassle and money.

00:03:59.220 Hello, Stu.

00:04:00.540 How are you?

00:04:01.420 Glenn, how are you?

00:04:02.220 Oh!

00:04:02.960 How's that New Year's resolution going for you?

00:04:04.560 Oh my God!

00:04:06.360 Kicking it off?

00:04:07.220 Yeah, no, I didn't make one this year.

00:04:09.540 I'm fully successful in mine.

00:04:11.040 They just don't start until 2025.

00:04:12.560 Really?

00:04:13.000 That's good.

00:04:13.800 It's kind of like a congressional thing.

00:04:15.740 Right.

00:04:16.520 Yeah, I'm just, I'm going to start eating right, but I'm spreading it over 10 years.

00:04:22.160 Don't want to make rash decisions.

00:04:23.480 Yeah, of course not.

00:04:24.760 It takes a lot of planning.

00:04:25.540 We need committees to look at this process.

00:04:27.540 Okay, could you please stop using all the terrorist language that you're using?

00:04:31.440 Oh, I'm sorry.

00:04:31.880 I don't know if you know this, but Dan Crenshaw slammed the 20 House Republicans that oppose

00:04:39.220 Kevin McCarthy.

00:04:41.000 He said, I'm tired of your stupid platitudes that some consultant told you to say on the

00:04:47.660 campaign trail behind closed doors.

00:04:51.120 Just tell us what you actually want or shut the F up.

00:04:56.180 Huh.

00:04:57.240 So he thinks that people in the, very weird approach.

00:05:00.860 He thinks the people in the Freedom Caucus are being told, this is what you have to say

00:05:06.840 to win?

00:05:08.260 Really?

00:05:09.380 Oh, yeah.

00:05:10.000 Huh.

00:05:10.480 Yeah.

00:05:10.740 Okay.

00:05:11.840 He said, they need to be men and adults who say what they want instead of playing these little

00:05:17.000 games.

00:05:17.760 That's what we're asking.

00:05:19.300 That's what I've asked them.

00:05:20.660 Some of them are my friends.

00:05:22.240 Stop saying platitudes like Washington is broken.

00:05:25.140 That's not a platitude.

00:05:26.360 That's the truth.

00:05:28.240 We can't do the status quo.

00:05:30.600 That again, not a platitude.

00:05:32.760 That's the truth.

00:05:34.220 And I love how he says behind closed doors.

00:05:37.820 Tell us what you really want.

00:05:39.980 Is that what you do, Dan?

00:05:42.220 He said that they are now showing themselves to be unbelievably unseerated.

00:05:51.620 They're now just choosing random people.

00:05:54.280 They don't have a plan.

00:05:55.820 They're acting like terrorists.

00:05:59.480 Wow.

00:06:01.320 Wow.

00:06:01.760 Acting like terrorists.

00:06:03.220 Well, you remember the 9-11 attacks were initially chosen because they, well, they were, it was

00:06:10.080 really about voting and they didn't have a plan on which candidate they wanted to come

00:06:13.880 around.

00:06:14.320 That's why Muhammad Atta had to do that.

00:06:16.380 Really?

00:06:16.780 Is that what it was about?

00:06:17.460 If I remember correctly.

00:06:18.360 He was, he was just saying, Hey, we should operate under the constitutional norms.

00:06:22.660 That was the big demand from ISIS.

00:06:24.860 I remember.

00:06:25.360 I didn't know that.

00:06:26.380 They were very concerned about that.

00:06:27.220 Ha.

00:06:27.620 Okay.

00:06:27.940 I mean, look, it's a figure.

00:06:28.560 I get it.

00:06:29.000 It's a figure of speech, but still it's like, it's still silly, right?

00:06:32.940 It's a silly criticism.

00:06:34.160 I'm so tired of, look, I am to a place, and maybe I'm wrong on this, I'm to a place to

00:06:40.860 where I do not want to banish anyone to the outer regions.

00:06:48.740 You believe in God, you believe in the constitution, but we disagree on how to exactly how to worship

00:06:57.280 him or, uh, you know, what church we go to, or, you know, we don't agree on all of the

00:07:03.480 policies.

00:07:04.400 Do you believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob?

00:07:08.820 Yep.

00:07:09.240 Okay.

00:07:09.940 Do you believe in the bill of rights?

00:07:12.600 Yep.

00:07:12.820 Do you believe in the constitution, that we are a constitutional republic, and that's

00:07:18.360 the problem?

00:07:19.160 We're not operating anymore under the constitution and bill of rights.

00:07:23.220 Yep.

00:07:23.740 Good.

00:07:24.160 I'm fine.

00:07:25.160 You're asking for more than I am.

00:07:26.580 I think I would take half agreement on one of those things.

00:07:30.540 That's what I want at this point.

00:07:32.660 Yeah.

00:07:32.940 Are you, are you believing God of, uh, Isaac?

00:07:37.680 What about Jacob?

00:07:38.780 No, I don't, don't worry about Jacob.

00:07:40.460 Jacob was off the reservation.

00:07:41.860 We don't know.

00:07:42.820 But it is, it is kind of, it's, it's a difficult thing, right?

00:07:47.240 I understand trying to come up with someone who's going to please these 218, to get to

00:07:51.780 218 is not going to be easy, right?

00:07:54.120 If you put up someone who's more conservative, likely one of the annoying moderates is going

00:07:58.960 to say no.

00:08:00.000 Sure.

00:08:00.460 And they're going to bail on it.

00:08:02.440 You know, you, you're at the point now where you start to wonder whether Kevin McCarthy's

00:08:07.580 going to start going to Democrats and just start saying, hey, we only need five of you.

00:08:11.500 I believe that they will go to Democrats.

00:08:15.420 They, I believe they would even go for Hakeem Jeffries over a Freedom Caucus person.

00:08:22.540 I think that's, it's not completely out of the question.

00:08:25.240 First of all, you have a very incompetent group of people, right?

00:08:28.720 So it's highly possible a bunch of them forget to show up one day and Jeffries just wins.

00:08:35.680 I mean, because of the way this vote works, it's not out of the question.

00:08:39.100 Well, no, you'll have to have 218, don't you?

00:08:41.280 You have to have the majority of the people voting.

00:08:43.420 Oh, jeez.

00:08:44.060 So if you vote present or you don't show up to vote, that number, that threshold lowers.

00:08:49.040 It's only, it's 212.

00:08:50.060 He's getting 212.

00:08:51.060 Jeffries is getting 212 each time.

00:08:53.060 I don't think that's out of the question.

00:08:54.540 I don't think it's out of the question that they try to pull some stunt.

00:08:57.300 One of the things they're talking about doing is changing the rules.

00:09:01.440 So if they did this rule change.

00:09:02.340 Oh, that's always good.

00:09:03.180 Always good.

00:09:03.560 That's always good.

00:09:04.260 Always works out well.

00:09:04.920 I love that.

00:09:05.240 It worked out well in 2020, didn't it?

00:09:07.700 For the Democrats.

00:09:08.700 Right.

00:09:09.100 Worked out well.

00:09:10.000 Just change the rules.

00:09:11.020 Just change the rules.

00:09:12.040 So if you change the rules, normally you have to have a majority of the people that are voting.

00:09:16.080 They can change the rules to say, actually, now it's just a plurality.

00:09:19.980 Now, in their minds, what would happen is McCarthy would win, you know, 2-6, or what is he, you know, 2-16.

00:09:27.640 No, basically the idea there would be to put a gun to the head of the Freedom Caucus and say it's going to be either McCarthy or Jeffries.

00:09:35.920 And that's, I would not doubt for one second that they would do that.

00:09:41.400 And what happens?

00:09:42.460 They like the Democrats and would rather deal with the Democrats than anyone who believes in the Constitution.

00:09:50.060 And there is a bubbling theory in Washington now, in these circles, that, you know what, we're not going to be able to get anything done anyway.

00:09:58.120 We're not going to get anything passed because everything we pass is going to go to the Senate and die.

00:10:01.360 If they do this, why not just let Jeffries have it?

00:10:05.600 If they do this, the Republican Party should be over.

00:10:09.460 This is really being talked about in Washington where they're saying, look, let Jeffries win this thing.

00:10:16.120 We still will be able to vote on the bills he brings up and we'll shoot them all down.

00:10:19.920 We'll still be able to block everything.

00:10:21.320 And then they'll get all the blame because they'll still have the control.

00:10:24.280 And then 2024, we can come in and win.

00:10:26.300 I'm telling you that this is actually bubbling around.

00:10:28.880 Wow. So that is, let me just see if I have this strategy.

00:10:32.600 At least we're not the Democrats 2.0.

00:10:36.540 Yeah, that's all that is.

00:10:38.500 And it was such a winning strategy last time.

00:10:42.300 Yeah, they want to run it back this time.

00:10:43.620 I have to tell you, there is, this is so important.

00:10:48.700 First of all, Dan Crenshaw, you know, you want to call people like me a terrorist?

00:10:55.040 That's fine.

00:10:55.560 I'm not going to return the the charge to you.

00:10:59.220 I deeply disagree with you on many things, but I'm not going to call you names because we all have to come together.

00:11:08.460 If we are going to stop the evil that we are all fighting against, we not only need the people we, you know, we agree with.

00:11:19.620 We need the people we disagree with as well.

00:11:22.500 Well, the left evil has found a way to cobble together a huge coalition.

00:11:30.480 They've convinced themselves the Marxists have convinced themselves.

00:11:34.300 Yeah, well, the statists will get rid of all the big business people when we get in charge and the big business people are like, we'll get rid of all the Marxists when we're in charge.

00:11:42.920 They're going to eat each other.

00:11:44.640 They're going to eat each other.

00:11:45.800 But first, they're going to feast on us.

00:11:49.440 So what do you say we come together and we look for principles?

00:11:55.260 What the Freedom Caucus is standing for are principles.

00:12:00.360 I don't know.

00:12:01.640 I don't need a consultant.

00:12:03.380 And in fact, I think any any politician that is hiring these consultants, I think you're an idiot.

00:12:12.720 I think you're an idiot.

00:12:13.580 The consultants are the ones who got us here.

00:12:15.800 The consultants are the ones that keep, you know, who is who is actually feeling what's going on?

00:12:23.840 Because it's really clear what's going on.

00:12:26.880 Why do we need the Republicans to be strong, have a spine and not be part of the swamp?

00:12:35.440 Let me just give you a couple of things.

00:12:36.920 Let's see.

00:12:38.480 SCOTUS.

00:12:39.400 Remember, somebody leaked the leaked the abortion bill early.

00:12:44.080 SCOTUS.

00:12:45.080 And the verdict, they were like, I do remember that.

00:12:47.660 Yeah, it's been eight months.

00:12:49.260 Nothing.

00:12:50.180 That's not true.

00:12:53.080 People in the Supreme Court know who leaked it.

00:13:00.740 Can guarantee it.

00:13:01.800 Can guarantee it.

00:13:03.200 They know who leaked it.

00:13:05.400 They won't say because John Roberts thinks it will damage the court and the justices.

00:13:14.080 Well, you're doing more damage there.

00:13:15.880 And you know what?

00:13:16.540 If you're not willing to find out who put people's lives in danger, well, then we need an agency that will.

00:13:26.980 We need a group of people who say this was wrong and cannot be tolerated because it is a terroristic act.

00:13:35.320 Do you want to give us who?

00:13:36.940 No, I really don't know who it is.

00:13:39.560 I might not today, but I might.

00:13:43.600 We have General Milley.

00:13:46.240 He we now know he hid the nuclear codes from Donald Trump and talk to Nancy Pelosi and said, don't worry.

00:13:54.940 I've made two phone calls to the Chinese.

00:13:58.220 I told him if he tries to do anything, he's I got the nuclear codes.

00:14:01.800 He's not going to be able to do it.

00:14:03.380 What do you is that even true?

00:14:07.240 And then he goes on a couple of months later and he's responsible for Afghanistan and the guy hasn't been asked a single question about it.

00:14:17.200 That doesn't seem right.

00:14:18.620 How about this?

00:14:19.600 The ex-capital police boss says that he wasn't informed on all of the intel that was being given to Nancy Pelosi.

00:14:33.380 He said, we didn't get it.

00:14:35.220 You think I'm the head of the Capitol Police, but the head of the Capitol Police is actually a bunch of politicians.

00:14:42.220 And for some reason, they didn't tell me.

00:14:44.940 And when I finally heard about some threats, not the amount of threats that they we now know knew, he said, I think we need to have National Guard.

00:14:54.520 And they said, we don't like the optics of that.

00:14:57.880 I don't know.

00:14:58.660 I think we should probably get down to what really happened on January 6th with the speaker's office.

00:15:06.920 By the way, the FBI has raised the the reward for that darn pipe bomber.

00:15:15.460 It was just so coincidental.

00:15:18.420 The way that happened, it was amazing, you know, and they have him on tape and everything, but they just can't find him.

00:15:28.780 So they just said, we're going to raise it up at half a million dollar reward if you can find this guy.

00:15:35.320 How about this one?

00:15:36.560 Hunter Biden.

00:15:37.360 Can we just find out?

00:15:39.240 Can we just can we just can we just find out who in the FBI was protecting who in the FBI was going in trying to silence people?

00:15:53.560 Who was it?

00:15:55.920 You know, because he's still doing it.

00:15:57.400 Hunter Biden, the child support now, you know, with his hooker mama or whatever, she's like, he's got money.

00:16:06.760 And he's crying poor mouth to the judge.

00:16:09.320 I want to see the records of the art they're selling for five hundred thousand dollars a piece.

00:16:15.960 Well, shouldn't his, I don't know, son or daughter.

00:16:19.220 You know, have some child support from this guy.

00:16:23.420 Absolutely.

00:16:24.400 Yeah, absolutely.

00:16:25.960 Incredible that they're not even going after him for that.

00:16:28.480 Yeah.

00:16:28.840 Well, you know, there's another thing that really is interesting.

00:16:33.040 The ethics watchdog protect the public's trust is now calling for an investigation of Biden officials in the connection to Sam Bankman freed.

00:16:44.100 Apparently, there were some slack channels between him and the White House.

00:16:50.280 And as this thing started to fall apart, one of the guys who's now been arrested pulled all of the slack channels.

00:16:59.360 And they're trying to make sure that the White House didn't delete and erase all of that, which they most likely did.

00:17:07.700 What was going on?

00:17:09.200 This guy stole millions of dollars from people and then gave it to the Democratic Party.

00:17:18.000 I don't know.

00:17:18.860 Maybe we should find out a little bit about that.

00:17:21.800 How about the border?

00:17:23.860 Do you think maybe we should have a Congress that is just actually doing something about the border?

00:17:29.060 Or should they do a study on it and talk about it and say, next time when we have the power, we're going to do something.

00:17:39.520 But comprehensively.

00:17:43.320 How about how about getting some people who don't agree we should go to war with Russia?

00:17:49.340 We are now close to sending armored weaponry to the Ukraine.

00:17:55.260 Can we get Congress to give us answers?

00:17:58.340 Is the CIA actually providing targets in Russia that has been reported?

00:18:06.180 Is that true?

00:18:08.080 Can we get somebody on that?

00:18:10.340 People are leaving.

00:18:13.200 They're leaving New York, California for Texas and Florida in record numbers.

00:18:23.640 Why?

00:18:26.780 I'm going to give you the plan that the GOP should use to win.

00:18:34.920 These are the reasons why the Freedom Caucus is standing up and saying enough is enough.

00:18:47.940 And I believe the GOP, anybody who votes for a Republican, I'm not a Republican, but I generally vote for Republicans.

00:18:55.240 I'm done.

00:18:56.500 I'm done.

00:18:57.420 If they can't do anything, I'm done.

00:19:01.620 Why would I fight for them a second longer?

00:19:06.300 Back in just a minute.

00:19:07.820 First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

00:19:09.680 Here's some people who are actually fighting the good fight and they're making a difference.

00:19:14.260 They have helped change school boards all over the country.

00:19:18.480 It's Patriot Mobile.

00:19:19.540 They actually are in business to, one, provide a great product, your mobile service, get the same coverage, also a better price and better customer service.

00:19:33.480 That's their job number one.

00:19:34.800 Now, the reason why they have job number two is because they thought to themselves, what could be we could be really good at that would provide some profit that we could then take and fight this Marxist nonsense and fight for life and liberty and justice?

00:19:56.780 That's what Patriot Mobile does.

00:19:59.720 But if you just want to talk about the phone service, let's talk about it.

00:20:20.400 PatriotMobile.com slash BECK.

00:20:22.280 I don't know.

00:20:22.860 I'm tired of giving my vote or giving my money to people who actually, when the door is closed, despise me.

00:20:52.280 I'm going to give you, I'm going to give you the blueprint.

00:20:56.860 It's really not hard to find.

00:20:58.840 I'm going to give you the blueprint that I think the Congress needs to understand.

00:21:03.960 The GOP needs to understand.

00:21:06.080 We need, we need a new head, a new chair of the RNC.

00:21:11.180 I mean, the whole thing needs to be cleaned out.

00:21:13.680 Just cleaned out.

00:21:14.340 It's nothing but career bureaucrats enriching themselves.

00:21:18.720 She, you know, I, I, I better not say I, I'll let them say it on the air.

00:21:27.780 I had a conversation with somebody and it was shocking because this is not a person that I'll have to tell you some other time.

00:21:40.680 There are some people, I just don't want to violate a confidence and I don't think it was told to be in confidence, but I just want to make sure.

00:21:46.840 Sure. And that's usually the safe way to go on something like that.

00:21:49.240 And usually not the way I go.

00:21:50.900 No. It must be really important.

00:21:53.180 Yeah, it is.

00:21:53.960 But this person was looking into the campaign funding and was horrified by it.

00:22:04.360 They told me, you would not believe how much money all of these consultants and all of these people, they have built a system.

00:22:15.280 It doesn't matter if you win or lose.

00:22:17.240 They win every time.

00:22:20.140 Stop it.

00:22:21.520 Stop it.

00:22:22.920 It's not this hard.

00:22:25.760 And I'll show you a prime example and give you the blueprint after the break.

00:22:50.000 No matter how long you've been dealing with pain in your life, whether it's a day or 50 years, it's too long.

00:22:56.020 Pain sucks the joy right out of your life.

00:22:59.340 And that is one thing we need to we need to have in our life and we need to celebrate.

00:23:05.740 I want to talk to you.

00:23:06.440 Write this down, Sarah, probably tomorrow, because I think we're just overstuffed today.

00:23:10.760 I want to talk to you about joy and praise.

00:23:13.960 We do not.

00:23:17.440 We don't celebrate our joy enough.

00:23:20.060 And if we're going to win and invite people on our side, we really need to talk about our joy and how great things really are.

00:23:29.860 You could be you know, you could whine about it.

00:23:32.960 You be in prison and whine about being in prison or you can be in prison and you can say, you know, but Tuesdays, the soup is pretty good.

00:24:18.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:24:21.840 I'm glad you're here.

00:24:22.900 Monday, I, uh, flew to Florida and, um, had dinner with, uh, the DeSantis, uh, couple of first lady and, uh, and governor DeSantis.

00:24:37.560 And, um, you know what?

00:24:40.280 I was really impressed by him in this way.

00:24:43.720 Neither one of them sucked up to me.

00:24:45.780 And, uh, and when you're sitting, you know, I walk into this room, there are 500 people there and I'm coming with my son because I, you know, my wife is like, what am I going to go and sit around with a bunch of people that I don't know and have really nothing in common with?

00:25:02.900 And really?

00:25:04.460 No.

00:25:05.340 And I'm like, okay, honey, thank you.

00:25:07.420 And, uh, so I brought my son and when I sat down, I said, well, let's see who we're sitting next to.

00:25:13.700 And I go around the table.

00:25:15.480 Cause I'm one of the first in the room and I go around the table and I look at all of the name tags and it's Jonathan Sachs, who I was so excited, so excited for him.

00:25:23.640 And I didn't have my glasses on.

00:25:25.140 And I said, Rafe, who was sitting next to me here?

00:25:28.380 Cause it would just look like a long hyphenated name as I couldn't see it without my glasses.

00:25:33.260 And he said, Florida governor Ron DeSantis.

00:25:38.600 And I said, Oh, the guy sat down and never tried to suck up, never said I'm a big fan.

00:25:47.560 None of it.

00:25:48.600 None of it.

00:25:49.300 I felt like in this, a good thing.

00:25:51.880 I felt like I was at line in a line at a grocery store and I happened to be in front of him or behind him.

00:25:59.140 And he turned around and said, Hey, what's happening?

00:26:02.660 I don't know.

00:26:03.200 How's your day been?

00:26:03.800 I mean, it was like that, um, I brought it to politics, um, and he was like, not impressed.

00:26:12.320 I, he was, he is shares that with so many Americans, not impressed by you.

00:26:17.340 Yeah, no, but I mean, I don't mean it by me.

00:26:20.380 I mean, it was, he was just, he just didn't feel like a politician and he felt comfortable.

00:26:27.020 Like, I don't care what you say about me.

00:26:29.120 I really, I really don't.

00:26:30.640 And I liked that.

00:26:32.760 Then I sat and watched him take the oath of office and he was using the Bible of the revolution from my vault, which I brought as a surprise to him and said, I got the Lincoln Bible and I have one, you know, from the Washington era, the revolutionary Bible.

00:26:48.960 And, uh, so he was being sworn in and then he got up and gave his speech, GOP, listen carefully because this is everything you need to know and do.

00:27:05.500 He said, freedom lives here in our great sunshine state of Florida.

00:27:10.520 It lives.

00:27:11.860 The, the GOP does not believe this good politicians that are serving us do believe this.

00:27:19.660 It lives in the courage of those who patrol the streets and keep our community safe.

00:27:25.380 It lives in the industry of those who work long hours to earn a living and raise their families.

00:27:31.140 It lives in the dedication of those who teach our children.

00:27:35.320 It lives in the determination of those who grow our food.

00:27:39.000 It lives in the wisdom of our senior citizens.

00:27:41.400 It lives in the dreams of the historic numbers of families who have moved from thousands of miles away because they saw Florida as the land of liberty and the land of sanity.

00:27:56.100 Well, what does that tell you, GOP?

00:27:58.360 The guy won by 19 points.

00:28:02.980 What is he doing?

00:28:06.340 Listen, over the past few years, as so many states in our country.

00:28:11.040 They grinded their citizens down.

00:28:14.000 We in Florida lifted our people up.

00:28:18.560 Now, wait a minute.

00:28:20.020 I thought he was a big hate monger.

00:28:22.260 No, he's not giving you stuff in return for power.

00:28:28.140 He's letting you do it because he believes in you.

00:28:33.740 When other states consigned their people's freedom to the dustbin,

00:28:37.520 Florida stood strongly as freedom's linchpin.

00:28:41.200 Okay, there's the first thing.

00:28:43.120 Stop violating our rights.

00:28:47.040 When the world lost its mind, when common sense suddenly became an uncommon virtue,

00:28:53.760 Florida was a refuge of sanity, a citadel of freedom for our fellow Americans and even for people around the world.

00:29:01.600 So, what does that tell you?

00:29:03.640 Step number two, stop the insanity.

00:29:08.140 There are two genders.

00:29:10.400 If you want to be one happy little pony, you can be one happy little pony.

00:29:14.980 But that doesn't change the eternal truth that there are only two genders.

00:29:21.140 You can do whatever you want on your own time, but don't try to teach my children lies, period.

00:29:30.100 When the world lost its mind that people came to Florida in captaining the ship of state,

00:29:38.160 we choose to navigate the boisterous sea of liberty, then cower in the calm docks of despotism.

00:29:46.720 That's one of my favorite lines.

00:29:48.920 That is so great.

00:29:49.880 Navigate the boisterous sea of liberty.

00:29:53.260 In other words, it's a storm, man.

00:29:55.580 Some of us are going to be hanging on for dear life.

00:29:58.360 Some of us are going to be leaning over the rail or the rail barfing our heads off.

00:30:03.120 But I'd rather be there and free than kept safe by some big state that tells me exactly what to do.

00:30:12.920 That would be item number three, GOP, you should do.

00:30:17.000 We face attacks, we take hits, but we weather the storms.

00:30:23.700 We stand our ground and we do what is right.

00:30:26.700 That's why the Freedom Caucus is good.

00:30:30.640 There's no one with a spine anymore.

00:30:34.280 We need people with a spine.

00:30:37.740 And when they stand up against all odds to do your work.

00:30:43.840 And that work should be, I don't mean the GOP.

00:30:48.140 I don't mean the people who voted for them.

00:30:49.880 I mean Americans, which, by the way, in the sea of insanity.

00:30:54.820 What was it?

00:30:55.700 Stanford or Princeton said yesterday that Americans is a divisive word and we should stop using it.

00:31:02.620 Americans, your work, Americans, not independents, not Republicans, not Democrats, Americans, is to make sure people remain free.

00:31:18.520 And here they are standing up with a spine, taking the hits, but standing their ground.

00:31:26.440 He goes on, as the book of Psalms reminds us, I will not fear, though tens of thousands assail me on every side.

00:31:34.100 We have refused to use poles and put our finger in the wind because leaders do not follow.

00:31:39.620 They lead.

00:31:40.960 That's another thing, GOP.

00:31:43.220 Do you notice he doesn't grandstand?

00:31:45.560 He doesn't say, oh, you know what they're going to do?

00:31:48.160 We're going to take all that money one of these days from BlackRock.

00:31:53.140 Where are you?

00:31:54.000 But you watch.

00:31:55.140 We're going to do it.

00:31:56.760 And then they never do it.

00:31:58.500 Instead, you're like, why isn't he doing anything with BlackRock?

00:32:01.500 And the next day he's on TV going, yeah, I just want you to know I just signed this order.

00:32:05.560 We just passed it.

00:32:06.560 And all that money to BlackRock, that's gone.

00:32:09.120 He doesn't threaten.

00:32:11.240 He doesn't boast.

00:32:13.380 Really, he's unimpressed with all of it.

00:32:16.880 There's another thing, GOP.

00:32:19.500 Stop telling us what you're going to do because you're lying to us.

00:32:25.700 And when honest people go to Washington and they say, we're going to stand for this, of course you're tearing them down.

00:32:33.860 You can't have them win.

00:32:35.980 You can't have somebody standing because once other people notice, wait a minute, these guys are standing for basic principles.

00:32:45.660 What the hell is, what's my guy doing?

00:32:48.760 You're all in trouble.

00:32:50.020 He said, we've articulated a vision for a free and prosperous state.

00:32:55.700 Have you heard the GOP do that?

00:32:58.320 Have they articulated a vision for a free and prosperous America?

00:33:04.960 Because I haven't heard it.

00:33:06.120 What I hear is, we're not the Democrats.

00:33:10.760 We have, through persistence and hard work, executed that vision.

00:33:15.080 We have produced favorable results.

00:33:18.060 We're here today because the people of Florida, not the government, the people of Florida, have validated our efforts in record fashion.

00:33:26.800 Florida shows results matter.

00:33:28.800 We lead not by mere words, but by deeds.

00:33:33.120 Amen.

00:33:35.480 Four years ago, we promised to pursue a bold agenda, and we did that, and we've produced results.

00:33:41.440 Florida is taxed lightly, regulated reasonably, and spent conservatively.

00:33:46.160 Which member of the GOP doesn't think we should tax lightly, regulate reasonably, and spend conservatively besides those in Washington?

00:34:01.620 We promised we would enact big education reforms, and we delivered.

00:34:06.040 He has.

00:34:07.040 I'd like to see the GOP say, we're going to abolish the Department of Ed.

00:34:11.880 We said we would end judicial activism by appointing jurists to understand the proper role of a judge is to apply the law as written, not legislate from the bench, and we delivered.

00:34:23.340 We promised to usher in a new era of stewardship of Florida's natural resources by promoting water quality in the Everglades' restoration efforts, and we delivered.

00:34:33.640 We said we would stand for law and order and support the men and women of law enforcement, and we delivered.

00:34:39.500 We promised to remedy deficiencies in Florida's election administration, and to hold wayward officials accountable, and we delivered.

00:34:47.900 Where is anyone in the GOP saying that?

00:34:51.040 And that's got to be at the state level.

00:34:53.160 Are they doing that in your state?

00:34:55.140 We said we would support the areas of Northwest Florida stricken in Hurricane Michael, and we delivered.

00:35:03.300 And when Hurricane Ian came last year, the state coordinated a massive mobilization of response personnel, facilitated the fastest power restoration on record, and even quickly rebuilt key bridges that had been wiped out by the storm.

00:35:18.540 We've stood by the people of Southwest Florida and will continue to do so in the weeks, months, and years ahead.

00:35:23.340 Do you remember all of those interviews DeSantis did during the hurricane, where he was standing in front of the water, where they were rebuilding the bridge, and he was like, I've instructed them?

00:35:36.840 Yeah, I don't remember those either.

00:35:39.820 Because again, GOP, he doesn't need to talk about it.

00:35:44.980 People who actually do the right thing is so breathtaking to America that the word gets out.

00:35:55.720 Everybody's like, did you hear what happened in Florida with the bridge?

00:35:59.320 Did you see how fast they did that?

00:36:01.460 You don't have to tout it.

00:36:03.180 It's so breathtaking and spectacular when somebody just does their job.

00:36:09.820 You don't need to be on all the talk shows.

00:36:14.320 Because of these and other efforts, Florida is leading the nation.

00:36:17.900 Wouldn't you like to hear this from the GOP?

00:36:22.360 We're number one in the United States in net immigration.

00:36:28.880 In other words, more people are coming into Florida than leaving.

00:36:31.920 We're number one fastest growing state, number one in new business formations, number one in tourism, economic freedom, education freedom, parental involvement in education.

00:36:42.900 We're number one, number one in public higher education.

00:36:46.320 That's a record we can be proud of.

00:36:48.940 He then goes on to say, we have to ensure our school systems are responsive to parents and students, not partisan interest groups.

00:36:55.940 There you go, GOP.

00:36:57.180 We must ensure our institutions of higher learning are focused on academic excellence and the pursuit of truth, not the imposition of trendy ideology.

00:37:07.940 Florida must be a great place to raise a family.

00:37:10.640 We will enact more family-friendly policies to make it easier to raise children, and we will defend our children against those who seek to rob them of their innocence.

00:37:21.560 We're a law and order state.

00:37:23.400 We'll conserve and treasure our natural resources.

00:37:27.180 This is the winning plan.

00:37:33.680 You don't need a think tank.

00:37:36.760 Google Ron DeSantis inaugural speech 2022, and it's all there.

00:37:45.800 All there.

00:37:47.760 Just do that, and let's watch what happens.

00:37:53.100 We gather to mourn the passing of all of your money from its place in your account into the account of cybercriminals and the government.

00:38:04.480 I mean, we should mark it.

00:38:06.080 We should just make mention of it.

00:38:09.120 Everything that you've ever earned can disappear this quickly.

00:38:14.100 That's why cybercriminals are out there.

00:38:17.960 They are really good, and they're constantly updating.

00:38:20.940 This is their gig, man.

00:38:23.160 And your part-time, part-time, part-time, part-time, part-time job is to occasionally check and say, is everything okay?

00:38:30.660 And how many times do we get around to our cybersecurity conversation with our wife or husband?

00:39:12.580 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:39:30.900 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:39:33.400 Just let me give you a little bit of hope.

00:39:35.200 Let me give you a little bit of hope, and I go back to the speech on Tuesday in Florida.

00:39:40.200 The federal government has gone on an inflationary spending binge that has left our nation weaker and our citizens poorer.

00:39:47.920 It has enacted pandemic restrictions and mandates based more on ideology and politics than sound science.

00:39:54.180 This has eroded freedom and stunted commerce.

00:39:56.760 It has recklessly facilitated open borders, making a mockery of the rule of law, allowing massive amounts of narcotics to infest our states, importing criminal aliens, greenlighting the flow of millions of illegal aliens into our country, burdening communities and taxpayers throughout the land.

00:40:12.880 It has imposed an energy policy that has crippled our nation's domestic production, causing energy to cost more for our citizens, eroding our nation's energy security and, in process, our national security.

00:40:24.440 It wields its authority through a sprawling, unaccountable and out-of-touch bureaucracy that does not act on behalf of us, instead looms over us and imposes its will upon us.

00:40:35.600 And the results are predictably dismal.

00:40:38.560 This has caused many to be pessimistic about the country's future.

00:40:42.940 Some say that failure now is inevitable.

00:40:47.120 But Florida is proof positive that we the people are not destined for failure.

00:40:53.820 Decline is a choice.

00:40:56.560 Success is attainable.

00:40:58.400 And freedom is worth fighting for.

00:41:03.280 And fight we must.

00:41:06.040 We must embrace our founding creed that our rights are not grounded by the courtesy of the state, but are endowed by the hand of the almighty God.

00:41:16.440 We reject the idea that self-government can be subcontracted out to technocratic elites who reduce human beings to mere data points.

00:41:24.220 We insist on the restoration of time-tested constitutional principles.

00:41:32.980 Let me talk to you about being prepared with My Patriot Supply.

00:41:37.900 My Patriot Supply is the largest preparedness company, and it wants to help you and your family be prepared for everything that is coming your way.

00:41:47.240 You know, we have to be self-reliant as much as we can.

00:41:56.620 Do you have money for food?

00:42:18.420 And you can get $200 off that emergency pack now.

00:42:24.260 The time to prepare is now.

00:42:42.980 We've got no room to compromise.

00:42:59.820 We've got to stand together if we're going to survive.

00:43:05.820 Stand up, stand, and hold the line.

00:43:08.760 It's a new day, I'm trying to raise.

00:43:17.320 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:43:23.440 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:30.320 Well, hello, America.

00:43:32.480 Glad you're here.

00:43:33.420 I want to talk to you about the Pope's death.

00:43:40.120 Pope Benedict.

00:43:41.560 He was buried.

00:43:43.640 The funeral that Joe Biden was not invited to attend.

00:43:49.120 But then again, no one was.

00:43:51.240 Only officials from Italy and his birthplace of Germany were invited to come.

00:43:56.040 So he is Joe Biden is remains here in America.

00:44:00.960 But is that the reason that he really wasn't going?

00:44:06.260 There is a battle inside the Vatican.

00:44:09.480 And I want to tell you a story that I don't think I've ever shared before on the war in the Vatican.

00:44:15.980 And I want to take you through that and tie it to what Pope Francis has just said at Christmas,

00:44:25.360 that there is a, what do you say, an elegant demon inside of the Vatican

00:44:31.700 and a new book that is coming out that I would bet Benedict actually helped write.

00:44:40.920 It was from his right-hand man and it was just announced after his death by the guy who gave him the last rites.

00:44:49.160 It was by his side his whole life.

00:44:51.160 He then said, oh, by the way, at the end of the month, I'm publishing this book.

00:44:56.820 And it's a tell-all about the evil that was in the Vatican.

00:45:03.220 I want to talk to you about a war and a deep state that I don't think anybody talks about except those in the Vatican.

00:45:12.340 And it is really important in 60 seconds.

00:45:19.560 So we've taken a pretty good beating as a country for the past couple of years.

00:45:23.340 And I'm sure you, like millions of other Americans, are feeling the effects of it.

00:45:27.060 And if you're one of those people who are trying to sell a house or buy one or both, it's got to be pretty scary right now.

00:45:34.620 If you have to move or you want to move, it's got to be scary.

00:45:38.480 The rates are still, believe it or not, at record lows.

00:45:42.840 I mean, you might be paying 5%, 6%.

00:45:44.720 But that is, I mean, I remember growing up, the interest rate was 19%.

00:45:50.200 And I think it's 8% or 9% is the average.

00:45:54.800 So we're still lower than average.

00:45:57.480 We've been living in a fluke for a while.

00:46:00.320 And we're about to pay for it.

00:46:02.400 You need the best real estate agent that can get you the best deal on your new house and on the house that you're selling.

00:46:10.120 Please let my company help.

00:46:11.760 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:46:18.700 And we'll send you the name of one or maybe two real estate agents in your area that we feel are the best suited to really get the best deal for you.

00:46:38.640 realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:46:39.700 realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:46:41.840 All right.

00:46:42.760 So let me.

00:46:47.300 Let me start here.

00:46:48.740 Let me start at Christmas.

00:46:50.440 Pope Francis made a dire warning to the the Curia, the Cardinals and everybody else in the Vatican,

00:46:59.960 warning them to be ever vigilant of demons lurking in the Vatican.

00:47:05.360 Now, this was part of his Christmas address, which apparently he has turned into an annual airing of grievances someplace in his Christmas address.

00:47:19.100 He will put some things where he's, you know, kind of upset about inside the Vatican.

00:47:25.600 He'll bury that in the Christmas address.

00:47:28.040 So they've adopted part of Festivus into the Vatican's Christmas Festivus.

00:47:35.360 Yeah.

00:47:35.740 From, of course, the George Costanza's holiday.

00:47:40.900 They had the airing of grievances as part of it.

00:47:43.200 That's right.

00:47:43.720 Well, that's kind of what it is.

00:47:45.160 Wow.

00:47:45.480 That's kind of what it is.

00:47:46.700 So he said, you have to be ever vigilant of demons lurking in the Vatican.

00:47:52.460 Now, he he couched this and you can read it this way.

00:47:56.280 And this is probably what he meant.

00:47:58.520 But listen to the whole story.

00:48:00.460 He said we could easily fall into the temptation of thinking we're safe, better than others, no longer in the need of conversion.

00:48:08.280 But there is an elegant demon who does not make a loud entrance, but comes with flowers in his hand.

00:48:15.720 So he says this elegant demon is now lurking among the Vatican staff.

00:48:22.340 Okay.

00:48:22.540 So is that just something that he's like, hey, you know, everybody's human and we should just be careful, ever vigilant?

00:48:28.680 Could be.

00:48:29.340 Could be.

00:48:30.800 Find it really interesting that he's using those words.

00:48:35.960 Because I want to add something on top of that.

00:48:38.380 Pope Benedict, who just died, his longtime personal secretary, has written a tell-all book that his publisher promised would tell the truth about dark maneuvers, mysteries, and scandals that sullied the reputation of Pope Benedict.

00:49:02.780 Dark maneuvers.

00:49:05.440 Hmm.

00:49:05.800 This is a guy who stood by Benedict for three decades.

00:49:13.340 He worked with him when he was just, you know, father, what was his name?

00:49:19.880 Ratzinger.

00:49:21.480 Then he was his personal secretary.

00:49:25.240 He went, became the Pope's secretary.

00:49:28.000 And then when Benedict suddenly left, which was extraordinarily odd.

00:49:33.900 First time in, what, 600 years?

00:49:35.280 Yeah.

00:49:35.760 It's extraordinarily odd.

00:49:37.640 And the story has been that, you know, he fell and, you know, he was like, I don't think I can do this job anymore.

00:49:45.380 And that may be true.

00:49:47.860 But was there anything else that was going on?

00:49:53.180 This book is promising to say, yeah, there were some dark maneuvers going on.

00:49:59.980 I want to add a personal story before I go into part three of this.

00:50:05.400 I was at the Vatican.

00:50:07.900 I've gone twice.

00:50:10.980 What was the last one?

00:50:12.180 2011?

00:50:13.620 Do you remember?

00:50:14.380 I don't.

00:50:15.360 It was a while ago.

00:50:16.280 It's when they appointed, when Ratzinger was the Pope, and he had appointed a bunch of cardinals.

00:50:24.960 Dolan was one of the cardinals that was being sworn in.

00:50:28.360 And we were there, and I talked to Dolan, and I talked to many of the cardinals.

00:50:34.020 And I was supposed to meet with the Pope at that time, and it fell through at the last minute.

00:50:40.120 But I was hanging out with all these cardinals, and I think they were the good cardinals.

00:50:46.860 I mean, you know, everybody has their own personality and everything else.

00:50:50.040 But these guys were, they were like Mother Teresa, you know, St. Francis.

00:50:54.900 They were the poorer ones and from the poorer countries, and they were just all about service.

00:51:01.840 And we took a, I had so many incredible, life-changing experiences there that just opened my eyes to so much.

00:51:13.920 And one night, it was before the cardinals were, I don't know.

00:51:20.920 Cardinaling?

00:51:21.580 Cardinaling.

00:51:22.400 I don't know what they call it.

00:51:23.740 But anyway, it was the night before, and I'm in this room with all of the cardinals, okay?

00:51:29.280 And there's just a few people that aren't wearing these red robes.

00:51:34.720 And Tanya and I are standing there, and we're standing talking to these cardinals.

00:51:39.180 And this one guy who was really our host that night, he was just, you know, when you meet people and you could feel the spirit on them and the kindness and everything else,

00:51:50.300 you just know when you're in the presence of somebody who's really connected to the spirit.

00:51:54.980 And he said to me at the time, he said, you know why this is happening.

00:52:03.460 And he meant why so many cardinals were being called.

00:52:06.120 And I said, no.

00:52:07.620 And he said, there's a war inside the Vatican.

00:52:11.360 And he said, I believe that it's a war of good and evil.

00:52:14.660 He said, but there is a real war because there are many political aspects.

00:52:23.440 And basically what he described to me was deep state.

00:52:26.140 There was the deep state of the Vatican that was going to do, didn't matter what a pope even thought.

00:52:32.240 And he alluded to the fact that Ratzinger or Benedict, Pope Benedict, knew this and was doing basically what Donald Trump did with the Supreme Court.

00:52:43.900 He was appointing all these cardinals because he wanted to stack the deck because, in his words, he didn't feel he had very much longer that he could fight.

00:52:55.020 And I just thought, maybe he's sick at the time.

00:52:59.440 But it was like a year later that he retired.

00:53:04.300 And so he said, you know, he's stacking the deck.

00:53:08.040 He's trying to make sure that after he's gone, there's enough to hold back the onslaught.

00:53:16.260 And he said, and it's real evil.

00:53:20.780 And so we were just talking about it.

00:53:22.060 We're in this room someplace in Rome.

00:53:25.100 We're in this room that it was enormous.

00:53:29.380 It was a ballroom, you know, from, I don't know, a thousand years ago.

00:53:34.080 And it had a map of the world that was like two stories in a football field long.

00:53:40.920 I mean, it was unbelievable.

00:53:42.380 It was like a movie.

00:53:44.240 Like if you were a supervillain, you'd have a desk in the center of this room.

00:53:48.240 You know what I mean?

00:53:48.920 And you'd have one light at the desk and the bad guy would be sitting behind it.

00:53:53.660 And the camera would just show him in the whole map of the world.

00:53:56.260 It was like that kind of a room.

00:53:58.220 It was beautiful.

00:53:59.980 And so we're standing there and I'm just listening to what he's saying.

00:54:05.020 And this guy comes in and he was he was one of the cardinals.

00:54:10.240 And I don't want to identify his role, but he was very, very high up.

00:54:16.820 And man, he walked in and he walked in with all these suits, all these politicians.

00:54:22.320 And the guy said, that guy's the mayor.

00:54:26.960 This guy is a, you know, I don't know, finance minister, blah, blah, blah.

00:54:32.760 And I said, man, the room got chilly.

00:54:37.640 And because I just felt like this is not a good guy.

00:54:41.540 When he came in, he was like, you could feel it as much as I could feel the good on one guy.

00:54:46.120 This guy.

00:54:46.840 And he said, oh, oh, yeah, he's the there's there's that's the beginning.

00:54:50.860 There's the head.

00:54:52.640 And he said, you want to meet him?

00:54:55.120 And I'm like, no, I don't want to meet him.

00:54:58.020 And he said, you should.

00:55:00.140 And so my wife looked at me like, why?

00:55:03.060 Why would we want to meet him?

00:55:04.900 And so he came up and what the cardinal was doing was you just judge for yourself.

00:55:11.560 Just say hello.

00:55:12.340 So this was the spookiest guy I've ever met.

00:55:16.860 I don't remember the conversation.

00:55:19.080 I just remember thinking I want to stop talking to him and go way away from him.

00:55:26.960 There is a war.

00:55:28.780 And I don't think I'm not saying this to, you know, bash the Catholics or, you know, have you question your faith if you're a Catholic or anything like that.

00:55:36.560 Pray for the people who are in leadership positions.

00:55:40.300 What's happening in Washington is happening in all of our churches.

00:55:45.000 The evil has taken a foothold.

00:55:48.200 And there are good guys inside fighting.

00:55:52.320 I'm I'm I want to get the the guy who wrote this tell all book to be on.

00:55:59.880 And we're we're looking at a another cardinal that we could get on that might be able to tell us some of the inside things that are going on that has been a little frank about some of these things.

00:56:10.820 But the last thing I want to bring to your attention is.

00:56:14.420 When Pope Benedict was a cardinal, he had a lot of friends and they were other cardinals.

00:56:27.960 And when they released the final secret, the third secret of Fatima, which if you're not Catholic, it's it's just a message from heaven given to these these kids, you know, right before World War One.

00:56:44.360 And it said there is a huge Russia is the problem.

00:56:49.660 It's going to spread its error throughout the world unless her heart is changed.

00:56:56.060 And they see there's going to be a world war coming soon.

00:57:00.960 And then there will be a second world war and then a final battle.

00:57:08.100 And, you know, it happened years before World War One and World War Two, obviously.

00:57:13.020 And then there was the third one, the third secret, if you will, about what sets up the final battle.

00:57:19.920 They released this and it was kind of like, OK, that's old news.

00:57:23.600 Ratzinger, who is Pope Benedict, said, and this has just been published.

00:57:30.960 That Pope Benedict said the third secret has not been revealed in its entirety because the pope and all those involved would not allow it to be released.

00:57:47.600 Or if he was the pope, I can't remember which it was.

00:57:49.820 But the power did not want to release it because it talks about a bad council and a bad mass and evil at the top and highest levels of the church.

00:58:05.420 And that's the warning that was given to them in, you know, like 1910.

00:58:11.060 And it it it it leads to the end of days.

00:58:16.880 So I found it interesting that for anybody who believes in any of these kinds of things.

00:58:23.560 And if you believe in evil, I find it interesting that the current pope is talking about evil.

00:58:29.820 The last pope is talking about evil.

00:58:34.200 But I think they're kind of pointing at each other a little bit.

00:58:40.620 You know, I don't think they're on the same side.

00:58:43.220 I think they're both using evil, but I think they're not talking about the same evil and aren't fighting the same evil.

00:58:54.320 And then to have this Fatima secret come out now, according to sources, it is from the pope that just died.

00:59:05.700 I find it fascinating.

00:59:07.080 And to be clear, you're saying the book that is coming out is a tell all book basically about Benedict and what was going on, saying that he was not the guy everybody because they called him, you know, God's Rottweiler.

00:59:19.620 He went through a lot, you know, with the press.

00:59:23.140 But also, this book is saying there were internal things that were going on that I can tell you when he was the pope, I heard at the Vatican that he was fighting real evil and there was a battle inside.

00:59:39.260 It was like the deep state.

00:59:41.000 And this book was, you think, intentionally withheld until after he passed.

00:59:44.600 Until he died.

00:59:45.300 I think this book was – I could be wrong.

00:59:48.080 I could be wrong.

00:59:49.020 But as I read it, he was so close.

00:59:51.700 So you don't write a book overnight.

00:59:54.160 He just died.

00:59:55.000 Right, right.

00:59:56.060 So he's been writing it for months.

00:59:58.400 And this guy worked at his side his whole time.

01:00:02.000 He's the guy who gave him last rites, called Pope Francis and say he's dead.

01:00:08.800 I mean, he was the guy with him all the time.

01:00:10.900 I would bet you that it was written with Benedict.

01:00:15.680 Could be wrong.

01:00:16.680 But there might be some very interesting things that come out of this book.

01:00:24.500 Back in just a minute, let me tell you about MyPillow.

01:00:27.280 In case you forgot over the break, Mike Lindell is a lot more than just the MyPillow guy.

01:00:32.380 He's also the MySlippers guy, right?

01:01:52.700 Hi, Stu.

01:01:54.080 Glenn, I don't have any good Vatican stories for you.

01:01:57.320 I've got nothing to...

01:01:58.760 You've got nothing.

01:01:59.440 No.

01:01:59.840 You've got nothing.

01:02:00.380 I've got no, hey, I was talking to Pope Benedict one day stories like you do.

01:02:05.120 Really?

01:02:05.500 Yeah.

01:02:05.800 Really?

01:02:06.200 Yeah.

01:02:06.480 Yeah.

01:02:06.900 It's...

01:02:07.600 Yeah.

01:02:08.400 You've lived a weird freaking life.

01:02:10.580 I have.

01:02:11.700 Yesterday.

01:02:12.400 Yeah.

01:02:13.040 Yesterday.

01:02:13.700 It was on your show.

01:02:14.420 Yeah.

01:02:14.640 And you were holding Sputnik.

01:02:18.460 Yeah.

01:02:19.660 And...

01:02:20.060 That's exactly right.

01:02:20.740 That is something...

01:02:21.760 I thought about that afterwards.

01:02:22.840 We've done some really weird things.

01:02:25.260 There's been a lot of times that words have been said that I never thought I would hear.

01:02:29.040 Ever.

01:02:29.520 Right.

01:02:29.860 From anybody.

01:02:30.380 From anybody.

01:02:31.140 And I've heard...

01:02:32.040 Hold Sputnik.

01:02:32.820 Here.

01:02:33.040 Hold Sputnik was one of them.

01:02:34.360 Yes.

01:02:34.600 I did not think...

01:02:35.500 Right.

01:02:36.280 Hey, we're going to do a big event at the Temple Mount.

01:02:40.040 Yeah.

01:02:40.540 No.

01:02:41.140 Never, never, never thought...

01:02:42.680 Never expected that.

01:02:43.700 Yeah.

01:02:43.880 No.

01:02:44.160 Yeah.

01:02:44.460 And then yesterday, you brought Sputnik, which you purchased, onto the show, along with

01:02:52.000 like five other incredible things.

01:02:54.060 I got to tell you.

01:02:55.180 I got to tell you.

01:02:55.700 I talked to somebody that was evaluating things and trying to put a price on things for insurance

01:03:03.460 purposes, and I said, so what do you think?

01:03:07.680 And they just smiled at me and said, you have either a collection of stuff that will

01:03:14.480 be absolutely worthless, and probably soon, or you'll have an unbelievable collection.

01:03:23.440 And what it is, is it depends on which way the country goes.

01:03:28.140 This stuff is...

01:03:29.740 And that's the reason why I'm collecting it, because I'll bury it.

01:03:32.740 I'll dig holes all over the country with my own hands to hide this stuff, if need be.

01:03:39.700 If the country goes awry, there are people in our own government now that would love to

01:03:47.360 burn these documents, love to destroy our history and our narrative.

01:03:52.460 And that's why we have them.

01:03:54.860 Here, hold Sputnik.

01:03:56.040 You have to see the stew show from last night.

01:04:01.640 You can get it on demand now at blazetv.com to see some of the new items that we had.

01:04:08.340 We talked about the Bible that DeSantis used for swearing in, and also Batman's fireproof

01:04:16.560 cowl.

01:04:17.380 The Gladbach program.

01:04:17.780 It's the real Batman, too, not the movie guy.

01:04:21.480 The real one.

01:04:22.740 Anyway, Molly wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

01:04:27.940 She says, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the product.

01:04:31.500 Our dog, Darby, a very large 11-year-old German Shepherd, is doing much, much better since

01:04:36.400 we've been supplementing her diet with Rough Greens.

01:04:38.740 Her skin issues have cleared up.

01:04:40.480 She seems perkier and less lethargic.

01:04:43.040 She's on joint supplements, but her joints actually seem to bother her a lot less ever

01:04:48.780 since we started taking Rough Greens.

01:04:50.600 I'll tell you, Molly, when you start feeding your dog Rough Greens, you watch over a series

01:04:55.780 of months.

01:04:56.940 And it took about a year before I really stopped seeing tremendous changes in Uno.

01:05:04.480 So watch for them because they get better and better.

01:05:07.980 Rough Greens, not a dog food.

01:05:09.680 It's a supplement that has everything they need.

01:05:12.380 You can get a free bag for your dog just to try out.

01:05:15.260 Make sure he likes it or she.

01:05:35.140 He'll give you more of those at BlazeTV.com slash Glenn.

01:05:37.920 The promo code is Glenn to save 10 bucks.

01:05:42.380 Oh, this is.

01:05:52.580 Well, Stu, will you do me a favor?

01:05:56.800 Try to find.

01:05:58.620 Try to find.

01:05:59.560 I think this is good news.

01:06:01.300 Try to find a hold in this story because this is.

01:06:04.020 Sure.

01:06:04.320 This is this is epic.

01:06:06.300 This is epic.

01:06:07.080 And it's good news feel.

01:06:08.980 Governor Kathy Hochul, who is or Hochul, whatever her name is from New York.

01:06:14.580 I don't live there.

01:06:15.320 I don't care.

01:06:16.080 Hochul.

01:06:16.440 But yes, whatever.

01:06:20.120 Yesterday, she signed legislation permitting the process.

01:06:25.900 It's environmental friendly of composting dead people.

01:06:32.040 Wonderful.

01:06:33.260 Mm hmm.

01:06:33.620 This is the known as the Mafia Act.

01:06:37.700 2023.

01:06:39.140 Rather than cremating or embalming a deceased person and placing him or her in a casket.

01:06:44.260 This is natural organic reduction and involves placing the deceased in a reusable receptacle filled with organic materials such as wood chips, alfalfa straw and then heating it up and putting oxygen in there and then allowing, you know, maggots and things to, you know, help with the, you know, the decomposing of the body.

01:07:09.380 What a wonderful way to go.

01:07:10.680 And then they take all of the teeth and bone fragments and they grind them up.

01:07:15.700 And then you get, I believe, the equivalent of 36 bags of soil.

01:07:22.340 And it's wow.

01:07:23.480 Yeah, it's really, really good.

01:07:26.900 They're saying a single human body can yield as much as a cubic yard of nutrient dense soil.

01:07:33.540 That's fantastic.

01:07:35.000 Yeah.

01:07:35.120 What a blessing.

01:07:35.940 And cremation uses fossil fuels.

01:07:42.260 A burial uses a lot of land and has a carbon footprint.

01:07:47.480 No.

01:07:48.100 This one, we just grind the teeth and the bones up and we just put it in the flower bed.

01:07:55.120 I can't.

01:07:55.800 And then you can grow vegetables and then you can make soylent green.

01:07:59.840 This is, I'm pretty sure how all that goes.

01:08:02.420 I think this is how that starts.

01:08:04.780 It's totally the first step to soylent green.

01:08:07.000 It is.

01:08:07.600 Right?

01:08:08.040 It is.

01:08:09.100 It is.

01:08:10.320 Now, some will say this is maybe beneath the dignity of the person and the body.

01:08:19.920 Right.

01:08:20.620 But I don't think so.

01:08:22.100 I think composting grandma.

01:08:24.120 I mean, what?

01:08:27.280 We'll get better vegetables.

01:08:28.460 We won't put, you know, carbon up into, you know, CO2.

01:08:35.120 That's so dangerous.

01:08:36.600 The trees use it to grow.

01:08:39.360 You know?

01:08:40.140 And there's only so much CO2 that those trees can breathe in.

01:08:44.560 See, and that's your way of living on, Glenn.

01:08:47.000 Your body will be soil that will help a tree grow.

01:08:51.200 And that's your legacy.

01:08:52.680 This is sort of like a granola sort of pitch, I guess.

01:08:56.280 Well, it's, quote, perfectly appropriate for returning vegetable trimmings to the earth.

01:09:03.780 There's some things I don't want to think about.

01:09:06.040 And this is one of them.

01:09:07.360 Like, I don't want to think about waste disposal.

01:09:09.760 Human waste disposal.

01:09:10.880 I don't want to think about the process that goes on.

01:09:13.280 I'm glad it exists.

01:09:14.420 I'm glad it exists.

01:09:15.280 I'm never applying.

01:09:16.440 I support it.

01:09:17.240 Right.

01:09:17.680 I support it.

01:09:18.440 Right.

01:09:18.620 Glad there are people that do it.

01:09:20.040 And I would give them, after a shower and a change of clothes, I would give them medals or whatever.

01:09:26.040 You are swimming in that stuff to fix it.

01:09:28.640 So when I flush it, God bless you.

01:09:31.080 Thank you.

01:09:31.580 Thank you.

01:09:31.980 I don't want to hear or see you again.

01:09:33.640 I don't want to think about the whole process.

01:09:35.140 I don't want to think about what happens before, through, after.

01:09:37.820 I don't want to think about shaking your hand, you know, when in a week I'm at McDonald's.

01:09:43.720 I don't want to think about that.

01:09:44.500 I don't want to think about that.

01:09:45.300 But I'm glad that you exist.

01:09:47.120 And, like, look, I understand, you know, the human body, after you die, there's lots

01:09:52.540 of things that happen, and I don't want to think about them necessarily.

01:09:55.820 But, like, it does seem like a weird stance to take, you know?

01:10:00.920 Like, I guess you could make the argument, look, if you happen to be some person, you know,

01:10:06.440 you're some green protester who's been gluing yourself to things to protest the climate for

01:10:11.560 your entire life, maybe this seems really enticing, right?

01:10:14.760 And, you know, you want to do that to yourself, as you point out.

01:10:18.140 It seems demeaning to me in some way, but, like, I guess it's your choice.

01:10:23.120 I guess it's your choice.

01:10:24.520 And, you know, I think, I mean, if we could just get over the body as a temple, the body

01:10:31.640 as, you know, something sacred.

01:10:33.600 If we could just get over that, I don't know.

01:10:36.820 As a farmer, I mean, you got a relative that dies.

01:10:42.760 I got a wood chipper.

01:10:44.320 Let me just chip them off into the, I mean, it's good for the soil.

01:10:48.280 Like, I, again, I don't, to be clear, I understand, like, fertilizer has a lot of components I

01:10:55.140 would not like to think about, right?

01:10:56.580 Yeah.

01:10:57.760 But I really, like, if given the choice, would prefer my vegetables not grown in a decomposed

01:11:05.580 human body's soil.

01:11:07.360 And I know, like, I know there's a lot of science-y reasons that I should not care about

01:11:12.800 this because, hey, you know, the bottom line is there's all sorts of stuff you don't want

01:11:16.780 to think about when your food is being processed.

01:11:18.460 Well, I will tell you, I mean, it's, you know, waste products, you know, are used as a fertilizer.

01:11:25.240 Exactly.

01:11:26.620 And, you know, I don't want to think about that.

01:11:29.100 There's something a little different, though, about a human body.

01:11:33.420 And by the way, I've never, I've never driven down the street and all of a sudden seen this

01:11:39.780 glorious Garden of Eden that is a cemetery that I'm like, what are they putting in the

01:11:45.740 soil that is making that look like that?

01:11:48.820 Well, I mean, that's their point, Glenn, because they're right there locked in these boxes and

01:11:52.440 they can't help the soil.

01:11:54.220 But, like, I don't know.

01:11:54.800 It takes about eight years for it all to kind of go away, they say, for the body.

01:11:59.700 Right.

01:12:00.060 But the body's still in the box, right?

01:12:01.660 The box.

01:12:02.000 Well, it depends on what the box is.

01:12:03.260 I mean, if you're Elvis, yeah, sure.

01:12:05.060 Right.

01:12:05.380 You know, I mean, you know, I mean, I'm with people who are like, just put me in a, you

01:12:10.680 know, put me in a wood box, even a cardboard box.

01:12:12.840 I mean, just you don't need to spend $5,000.

01:12:18.340 Why do I need a pillow?

01:12:19.800 I'm really not.

01:12:20.460 It's not like I'm tossing and turning in there.

01:12:22.220 I'm going, geez, I can't fluff this pillow up.

01:12:24.840 I mean, even if I have the pillow, I can't get my arms up to the pillow to re-fluff it

01:12:29.620 once it goes flat.

01:12:30.800 So, stop.

01:12:32.480 Stop.

01:12:33.580 I could see that.

01:12:34.600 But, I mean, I guess you should be able to make your own choice.

01:12:37.660 I am.

01:12:37.940 I do think it's odd to make this like a big public pronouncement, though.

01:12:42.900 Like, this is the type of thing you put in the, like the, I don't know.

01:12:46.300 Was it?

01:12:46.880 I guess it was illegal in New York.

01:12:48.500 Was it?

01:12:49.000 Yeah.

01:12:49.480 So, you don't compost people.

01:12:53.540 I mean, this is, I mean, I think.

01:12:55.340 If you, if you were some.

01:12:56.600 I can't believe we live in a time where we are saying, here, hold Sputnik.

01:13:04.080 Right?

01:13:04.360 Yes.

01:13:04.720 That is a weird world.

01:13:05.340 That is no weirder than, no, a man cannot have a baby.

01:13:11.900 Or, no, we don't compost people.

01:13:15.600 But, I think, though, if you, if this was something central to you and you cared about it, you should be able to do whatever you want with your dead body.

01:13:25.380 Other than, like, I don't know, leave it on my porch.

01:13:27.160 I'm not saying, nothing.

01:13:28.980 Like, could I leave it on my porch?

01:13:30.860 I mean, no.

01:13:32.420 No.

01:13:33.000 There's some sanitary, right?

01:13:35.160 There needs to be a respect for the human body.

01:13:41.620 But, like, you could argue that, you know, again, this is not my argument.

01:13:45.320 But, you could argue cremation is weird, too, right?

01:13:48.720 What do you mean you're going to turn my body into ash and then keep it on your vanity board?

01:13:54.320 Sure.

01:13:54.560 Like, I think that, yeah.

01:13:56.060 I mean, I know.

01:13:56.800 You might think that's weird, but it's something that is part of society.

01:13:59.220 You know, I know God is all powerful.

01:14:01.440 But, I know that, you know, I get my body back at some point.

01:14:04.740 You know, if you believe in resurrection, you're going to get your body back at some point.

01:14:07.320 I would rather not have it a puzzle where God was like, okay, wait a minute.

01:14:10.440 We have this, and I had to get it to the bottom of the ocean because you just sprinkled him higgledy-piggledy off the back of a ferry boat.

01:14:17.680 Thank you for that.

01:14:18.760 But, I mean, I know he's capable of anything, but I'd rather not make him work.

01:14:22.820 You obviously think that's kind of a weird thing.

01:14:25.800 And, look, I think you could look at that and say, hey, it is kind of a different, like, but so is burying.

01:14:31.140 No, my dad was cremated.

01:14:31.440 Every part of this is weird.

01:14:32.860 I know.

01:14:33.240 My dad was.

01:14:34.120 Yeah.

01:14:34.480 Yeah.

01:14:34.760 Every part of this is weird.

01:14:35.960 And so, if you are, like, if you are.

01:14:38.580 If there's a dead animal, a dead horse, you would bury the horse.

01:14:43.340 Okay?

01:14:43.500 You'd bury the horse.

01:14:44.380 But, like, and the reason for that is harsh.

01:14:46.120 You wouldn't, like, you know what?

01:14:48.760 Hey, mama, come on, bring out those potato peelings.

01:14:52.940 We're going to put them on the horse.

01:14:54.780 Oh, he's going to be great for the garden.

01:14:56.560 I mean, I think that happens.

01:14:59.200 You're telling me there's not a bunch of granola weirdos out there composting their horses?

01:15:03.580 That's absolutely happening.

01:15:04.980 In fact, I think.

01:15:06.240 Let me tell you something.

01:15:07.340 If those granola weirdos own horses, I'm already pissed.

01:15:12.900 Really?

01:15:13.380 They own.

01:15:13.840 Who are you to own a horse?

01:15:15.520 That's true.

01:15:16.100 It's not their horse.

01:15:16.960 How dare you?

01:15:17.340 They just trot around the field.

01:15:18.860 Right.

01:15:19.220 That you fenced in.

01:15:21.100 They better not have fenced it in.

01:15:24.100 I don't know.

01:15:24.780 I think if you're weird enough to want to compost yourself, I think that's a, you should be able

01:15:29.440 to do it.

01:15:30.200 It's a weird, maybe it's a libertarian in me coming out and just saying, look, you want to

01:15:33.580 compost yourself, go ahead.

01:15:36.320 You go do that.

01:15:37.600 I do think it's weird that like, it's the main thing Kathy Hochul has achieved.

01:15:41.340 I guess you know what?

01:15:43.480 Hey, I got human composting done.

01:15:46.220 People have been clamoring for that for decades.

01:15:48.500 I, you know, I guess I, I wouldn't be so against it if I just didn't think we were cheapening

01:15:56.860 human life everywhere.

01:15:59.560 It does.

01:15:59.960 I mean, it's almost like, you know, you go in, I mean, you know, Hey, I got to go and

01:16:06.680 get my checkup at the VA.

01:16:08.140 And all of a sudden you find yourself on a conveyor belt that's leading to somebody's

01:16:11.800 garden.

01:16:12.280 You know what I mean?

01:16:13.600 I mean, we, we should slow down on devaluing the human body and we're just put some chips

01:16:20.820 in it.

01:16:21.140 It's just as good.

01:16:21.880 In fact, it's better.

01:16:22.820 Oh, oh, is it?

01:16:23.880 We're at least six months from that conveyor belt.

01:16:26.240 I mean, come on.

01:16:27.080 Exactly right.

01:16:29.640 Exactly right.

01:16:32.080 That's a little pessimistic.

01:16:34.100 I believe we can move a little faster on that.

01:16:36.080 Robert wrote about his experience with a relief factory.

01:16:38.640 He said, I didn't think the relief factor was working until I ran out mid month.

01:16:43.540 After about three days, the pain was back where it started.

01:16:47.600 Can I tell you something, Robert?

01:16:49.520 This is exactly what happened to me.

01:16:51.120 I didn't run out.

01:16:52.180 I did the three week quick start at the end of three weeks.

01:16:55.580 I'm like, it hasn't made any difference at all.

01:16:58.600 Within a couple of days, I'm like, ow, ow, ow, ow.

01:17:01.820 Yes, it does.

01:17:02.960 And it's gotten better for me the longer I take it.

01:17:05.020 Anyway, he said, when I stopped taking out, I realized just how much relief factor was

01:17:10.660 helping.

01:17:11.420 It's a great test for me to see how relief factor works.

01:17:14.720 Robert, let me tell you something else.

01:17:16.700 A year later, because I will run out and it comes all back.

01:17:23.020 It comes back.

01:17:24.100 So it's amazing.

01:17:25.800 You don't feel it.

01:17:26.540 It doesn't space you out or anything.

01:17:28.760 And it takes care of so much pain.

01:17:32.020 Three week quick start.

01:17:32.840 Just try it.

01:17:33.300 1995.

01:17:34.180 It's trial pack.

01:17:35.380 Thousands of people have tried it.

01:17:36.760 70% of them go on to order more month after month, which says a lot.

01:17:40.340 It's relieffactor.com.

01:17:42.240 800 for relief.

01:17:43.760 800, the number for relief or relieffactor.com.

01:17:47.920 Feel the difference.

01:17:48.700 Join the conversation.

01:17:51.760 888-727-BECK.

01:17:54.440 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:17:55.640 Welcome to the program.

01:18:12.260 Hey, Stu.

01:18:15.500 I'll give you another story.

01:18:17.220 Here.

01:18:18.020 Hold Sputnik.

01:18:19.040 Sure.

01:18:19.260 I think we should use that as, you know, things we never thought we'd say.

01:18:25.100 That's one of them.

01:18:26.100 Here.

01:18:26.600 Hold Sputnik.

01:18:28.760 And here's another one.

01:18:31.820 This one comes from The Guardian, the newspaper out of the U.K.

01:18:37.040 And, you know, they're just, you know, talking about all of the good things that the satanic temple has accomplished.

01:18:49.760 There's something that I never thought I'd say.

01:18:51.660 All the good things the satanic temple has done.

01:18:56.900 The temple has tackled prayer in classrooms, religious holiday displays, the distribution of Bibles in schools.

01:19:04.380 It's now taking on another fundamental issue, the right to abortion.

01:19:07.680 They are now fighting the extreme form of Christianity that wants to protect unborn life.

01:19:17.260 Those extremists.

01:19:19.420 I mean, you just want to protect little babies?

01:19:22.260 My gosh.

01:19:23.720 Okay, keep your cross at home, weirdo.

01:19:25.700 So, here's the thing.

01:19:30.880 The satanic temple has filed lawsuits in Indiana, Idaho, Texas, and Missouri in an effort to gain rights to religious abortion rituals.

01:19:45.640 Religious, this I'm quoting, abortion rituals that the satanic temple said they have a right to do.

01:19:52.580 Now, I go down a little further in the story here, and they say the satanist clarified that satanists don't believe in Satan as a literal demonic being, but just a symbol of rebellion and opposition to authoritarianism.

01:20:12.580 Okay, well, that would be Saul Alinsky, but I don't remember Saul Alinsky and his religious abortion blood rituals.

01:20:22.700 No, I mean, if you don't believe in Satan, but you call yourself a satanist, and you're part of the satan temple, you might want to think about renaming it, because I'm wondering who you're doing the religious blood ritual with these unborn babies to.

01:20:43.940 You know, I think Satan's really clear, if you're a little misty on that, you might want to, you know, you want to clear that up.

01:20:54.660 You think?

01:20:55.420 Yeah.

01:20:55.720 You're willing to take that stance?

01:20:56.820 I mean, I think I would be standing in the temple going, hey, if we don't believe in Satan, what's with the spooky dark room where we're killing babies?

01:21:07.460 I'm just, you know, in a religious ritual.

01:21:11.760 Well, who are we sacrificing those to?

01:21:14.540 It's not a bad question.

01:21:16.400 It's not.

01:21:17.180 Just not one I thought we'd ever have to ask out loud.

01:21:19.980 Right, yes.

01:21:20.580 You know what I mean?

01:21:21.080 And then have people somewhere in the country, right now, there's somebody going, hey, that makes sense to me.

01:21:29.160 Okay, okay, okay, never.

01:21:31.400 Yeah, again, there are lines, right?

01:21:33.140 Like, you can have, you can believe lots of things, but if you're doing blood sacrifice of little children, I'm going to go ahead and say that's over the line.

01:21:40.860 I think so.

01:21:42.000 I think so.

01:21:42.760 But I'm, you know, I'm an old movie buff.

01:21:44.780 You know, I saw all those Satan movies where they were trying to pigeonhole and stereotype.

01:21:51.080 You know, these blood rituals is something spooky.

01:21:53.600 Oh, yeah.

01:21:54.440 You know?

01:21:54.920 Yep.

01:21:55.180 And so I'm old school.

01:21:56.960 It's embedded in the culture now.

01:21:58.580 We have this negative perception of human sacrifice.

01:22:00.740 When really all they're doing, they are just really good.

01:22:04.100 This is a collection of landscapers.

01:22:06.640 And they just want to put those babies into a wood chipper and compost them.

01:22:14.860 Can you imagine how rich that soil would be?

01:22:17.240 Oh, my gosh.

01:22:18.040 Wouldn't that be?

01:22:21.080 Gang, you could not be further away from truth, any kind of truth, than living in America today.

01:22:33.540 Well, no, you can't.

01:22:35.660 It'll be living in America in a week from now.

01:22:38.500 It will be even further from the truth unless we hold the line.

01:22:43.900 Let me talk to you a little bit about Jace Medical.

01:22:49.640 The American Society of Healthcare Pharmacists, the group that tracks the production of medications around the world, has declared a worldwide shortage of antibiotics, specifically amoxicillin.

01:23:03.560 Well, that's kind of an important drug, right?

01:23:07.040 I want to talk to you about Jace Medical, the Jace case from Jace Medical.

01:23:12.220 It is a great way to keep yourself prepared for the worst.

01:23:15.020 They have five different courses of antibiotics that you can use to treat a lot, a long list of bacterial infections.

01:23:22.520 You can have it on hand.

01:23:26.880 Get the Jace case.

01:23:28.460 You'll get five different kinds of flights of antibiotics.

01:24:09.980 Stand up, stand, and hold the line.

01:24:14.840 It's a new day, I'm trying to raise.

01:24:20.600 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:28.480 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:33.900 All right, let me tell you, in hour number one of this podcast broadcast today,

01:24:40.760 I spoke about where's the plan?

01:24:44.840 From the GOP.

01:24:47.240 Where is the plan?

01:24:49.000 This is what the Freedom Caucus is standing up against.

01:24:54.880 The lack of any plan, of any strategy,

01:24:58.200 to get us back to a constitutional republic.

01:25:02.840 They just would like us to follow the Constitution,

01:25:07.020 maybe from time to time.

01:25:08.760 And I gave you an outline of a plan in hour number one of today's podcast.

01:25:15.800 For the next couple of minutes, I want to introduce you to somebody who is a conservative activist

01:25:20.460 that is actually doing something.

01:25:24.100 For some reason, the GOP doesn't do all of the legal things we can do.

01:25:39.160 When you hear ballot harvesting, you think, oh boy, that's bad.

01:25:43.800 Well, no, no, no.

01:25:45.180 Legal ballot harvesting is fine.

01:25:48.240 And in some states, there's legal ballot harvesting.

01:25:50.800 We don't engage in that.

01:25:52.380 It's legal.

01:25:53.380 And we don't engage in that.

01:25:54.680 Well, where do you think they're beating us on the margins?

01:25:58.180 Where do you think they're beating us?

01:26:00.680 Why aren't we doing that?

01:26:02.720 Well, I got a guy on next who says,

01:26:06.160 we are doing it and I'd like some help.

01:26:09.380 We talk to him.

01:26:10.480 Next.

01:26:12.380 First, Michael wrote in about his experience with Relief Factory.

01:26:15.060 He says,

01:26:15.200 Relief Factor helped to almost completely eliminate my elbow pain when I couldn't find any other

01:26:22.000 solutions.

01:26:23.020 It's a great product and has helped me with a lot of other aches and pains.

01:26:26.920 Since I started Relief Factor, I feel like I've got more energy and generally I feel better.

01:26:31.740 Thank you so much for a great product.

01:26:33.920 You're welcome, Michael.

01:26:34.780 Thanks for writing in.

01:26:36.040 Relief Factor, it doesn't work for everybody, but about 70% of the people who try it go on

01:26:40.300 to order more because it has four key ingredients that fight inflammation in your body, which

01:26:47.000 is, ibuprofen only has one.

01:26:50.400 This has four different angles that it hits inflammation and that's why it works for so

01:26:55.520 many people.

01:26:56.480 Works for me.

01:26:57.580 Try it.

01:26:58.380 Relief Factor dot com.

01:27:00.500 Relief Factor dot com.

01:27:02.180 Or call 800-4-RELIEF.

01:27:04.080 800, the number for relief.

01:27:05.840 Relief Factor dot com.

01:27:07.320 Feel the difference.

01:27:08.400 Scott Pressler is with us now, and we were having a conversation, gosh, a while back he

01:27:17.880 was on, I think we were talking about Cleanup Day in Baltimore, and he was part of that.

01:27:26.100 He is joining us now to talk about ballot, legal ballot harvesting.

01:27:32.420 How are you doing, Scott?

01:27:34.700 Thank you so much for having me.

01:27:36.320 Good morning.

01:27:37.260 You bet.

01:27:37.660 So, you are, I love this, you're an Eagle Scout, aren't you?

01:27:42.800 Yes, sir.

01:27:43.440 Yes, you are.

01:27:44.300 Yes, you are.

01:27:45.120 I think I remember that from, oh, we're going to clean up, we're going to clean up Baltimore.

01:27:50.660 Okay, try not to get stabbed to death.

01:27:53.420 But now you're on to legal ballot harvesting.

01:27:57.120 Tell me what it is, where it's legal, what the difference between legal and legal is, and

01:28:04.940 why it's important.

01:28:05.640 Well, first, if I may, I want to explain why we're going to engage in legal ballot harvesting.

01:28:14.920 And we saw this in Arizona.

01:28:17.200 We saw this in Harris County, Texas, that, you know, 30% of Republican voters are going to

01:28:22.820 vote early or do mail-in.

01:28:24.300 But the strong majority, 70% are going to wait until Election Day.

01:28:28.440 And we saw in Arizona that by waiting for that one day to vote, it only took one day of tabulation

01:28:37.360 errors and machine errors.

01:28:40.580 And in Harris County, we had polling locations that ran out of paper ballots as early as 730

01:28:49.280 a.m.

01:28:50.040 on Election Day.

01:28:51.640 And so my argument...

01:28:53.300 I mean, you wouldn't expect more than, I don't know, 150 people to come and vote.

01:28:58.700 Exactly.

01:29:02.120 It wasn't just negligence, in my opinion.

01:29:04.560 Right.

01:29:05.000 And therefore, my argument to the American people is, look, we cannot simply wait for

01:29:11.760 Election Day because there are now months of early voting.

01:29:15.940 I mean, literally, in my Commonwealth of Virginia, we have 45 days of early voting.

01:29:20.120 So that means that we must encourage early in-person, early voting, mail-in voting, Election Day

01:29:27.940 voting, and where it is legal, engage in ballot harvesting.

01:29:32.660 So explain, because I know you're writing a manual on this, if I'm not mistaken.

01:29:36.780 Explain what ballot harvesting means.

01:29:40.420 Sure.

01:29:41.280 So ballot harvesting just refers to the practice of somebody else returning a ballot on behalf

01:29:49.840 of a voter.

01:29:51.240 So ballot harvesting could mean my turning in my mom's absentee ballot for her because

01:29:58.300 she's either disabled or sick or out of the country, whatever the reason may be.

01:30:03.120 That's ballot harvesting.

01:30:04.740 And I really want to differentiate, because when people think of ballot harvesting, they

01:30:10.080 probably think of like, oh, one person is turning in a thousand ballots.

01:30:13.960 Right.

01:30:14.140 Certainly, that is ballot harvesting.

01:30:15.780 But I want to say that each of us could actually become a ballot harvester by even doing one

01:30:22.480 ballot.

01:30:23.160 I mean, that can double the amount of Republicans that are actually engaging in elections that

01:30:28.020 each of us do legal ballot harvesting.

01:30:30.320 And here's an example in Oregon.

01:30:32.960 I just got off the phone with Oregon, and I will be visiting soon, by the way.

01:30:36.340 Oh, sorry for that.

01:30:38.160 Hey, we got to bring the fight to even the blue.

01:30:41.560 Oh, I know, I know, I know.

01:30:43.240 And half that state is red, red, red.

01:30:47.680 Exactly.

01:30:48.440 It's only these cities that control them.

01:30:51.040 But we're going to change that.

01:30:52.240 And in Oregon, you can create your own unofficial Dropbox locations.

01:30:59.720 So literally, I could have a house party.

01:31:02.520 I could have a Dropbox location at a gun shop, a gun show, a church.

01:31:07.680 If President Trump or Governor Ron DeSantis came and did a rally, I could set up a Dropbox

01:31:13.180 location and have every Trumper and Republican turn in their ballot at the rally and then

01:31:19.360 give them information on how to chase ballots for other people.

01:31:24.180 And it was the successes of California, where we did legal ballot harvesting, New York, where

01:31:30.740 we did legal ballot harvesting, and the state of Florida.

01:31:33.420 That is the reason why we have a Republican narrow majority today.

01:31:39.180 So I am writing about harvesting manual.

01:31:42.420 I predict that I'll be done within the next two weeks.

01:31:46.020 And I'm going to start making this available to conservatives across the country so they

01:31:50.440 know the rules.

01:31:51.260 They know the regulations.

01:31:53.080 And we're going to play the same game the Democrats have done in order to elect Republicans

01:31:58.560 going into 2023 and 2024.

01:32:00.540 This is what's so frustrating, because I don't want to do anything illegal.

01:32:05.120 I want to make sure that every valid ballot is counted and is accounted for.

01:32:14.580 But we are not even doing the things you're allowed to do that are legal to do.

01:32:22.340 We don't we just we let them master things.

01:32:25.840 And then they always take it into the dirt.

01:32:29.800 But if we even want to be competitive, we have to do everything that is legal to do, because

01:32:37.140 they are just outmaneuvering us.

01:32:40.260 Well, and I'd like to expand upon that as well, because, for example, in the state of

01:32:45.220 Colorado, any person you don't even have to be a citizen.

01:32:48.480 I can turn in up to 10 absentee ballots in the state of Colorado.

01:32:52.700 But here's the kicker.

01:32:54.580 In Wyoming, there are no laws or statutes that prohibit ballot harvesting whatsoever.

01:33:00.820 Wyoming is one of the bloodest of red states.

01:33:03.940 So therefore, here's the methodology or the thinking that we have to have going forward.

01:33:08.700 We, as Republicans, are going to engage in legal ballot harvesting where it is applicable

01:33:14.480 and in states that we control the governorship and the legislatures, we should move to ban

01:33:20.520 ballot harvesting in those states.

01:33:22.720 So, for example, why is it not banned in North Dakota or South Dakota or Wyoming or et cetera?

01:33:29.920 There's only one state in the entire country that does not allow for a ballot harvesting,

01:33:34.640 and that's Alabama.

01:33:35.740 And I think that's how I thought this was I didn't realize that it was legal everywhere.

01:33:43.340 So define illegal ballot harvesting.

01:33:46.620 Well, it's actually very nebulous and ambiguous.

01:33:51.700 I'm not going to name names because I don't do that.

01:33:55.200 But I called an elections office in a blue state and I asked, are there any laws or statutes

01:34:04.060 that prohibit another person from turning in a ballot for somebody else?

01:34:10.000 And the only answer I got was the voter has to be the one that signs the ballot.

01:34:15.420 And I said, well, you know, could I mail in the ballot for somebody on their behalf?

01:34:21.040 And the answer I got was, well, we're not going to know who mailed in a ballot regardless.

01:34:28.280 And I don't like that answer.

01:34:29.640 I don't like that answer at all.

01:34:31.640 There's no chain of custody and it's so ambiguous.

01:34:35.060 And there are so many loopholes in reading all the laws that the majority of these laws don't even

01:34:40.480 talk about drop boxes.

01:34:42.940 And so I think there's a lot of room that we can use these laws to our advantage.

01:34:48.640 And again, I'm not doing anything illegal.

01:34:51.820 This is all going to be by the book and making sure that where things are prohibited, we will

01:34:56.540 not engage and where things are legal, we will engage.

01:34:59.620 Yeah, we we have to engage where we can.

01:35:03.600 I would love for it to be day only show up at the ballot box voting.

01:35:09.160 I would love that.

01:35:10.420 But that's not where we are.

01:35:11.640 I would love no drop boxes.

01:35:14.400 I think those are a nightmare.

01:35:16.640 You have to put the ballot in.

01:35:19.440 If it's a three week thing, you have to show up.

01:35:22.680 You have to be the one that put it in.

01:35:24.300 But that's not worth dealing with.

01:35:25.960 So if that's not the law, then we must engage in what everything that is legal to do.

01:35:35.460 Absolutely.

01:35:36.420 Well, and look at Pennsylvania, for example.

01:35:38.440 One last reason why we must do early voting is by the time that Fetterman and Dr. Oz had their first and only state, 500,000 Pennsylvanians had already voted.

01:35:51.760 And four out of those five voters were Democratic voters.

01:35:56.260 So they were already banking votes while the majority of Republicans were waiting.

01:36:00.340 And the last thing that I want to say, Glenn, is despite what happens with the RNC vote on January 27th, I am going to be working with a pact to create an infrastructure for absentee voting and early voting.

01:36:16.220 That's going to engage in states like Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, all of the swings to make sure that the GOP, if they don't have an infrastructure, that we will have one outside of the Republican Party to ensure the job gets done.

01:36:31.960 Good.

01:36:32.120 I have to tell you, this is why you make your kid become an Eagle Scout.

01:36:38.260 This is what you get out of it in the end.

01:36:40.240 And somebody who will actually get it done and do it right.

01:36:43.140 So, Scott, please send me a copy of the book.

01:36:46.860 We'll have you on.

01:36:48.060 Is it is it possible then that where where your state is voting and you can have a drop box that we could all have like a Tupperware party or a I could do like I don't know.

01:37:04.500 We could do a special show that is only on that night and you get special access if you have a party at your house and they fill them all out and that group can take those then and turn them in.

01:37:19.720 Is that possible?

01:37:20.740 Is that legal?

01:37:22.920 Absolutely.

01:37:23.920 There are some states that we're going to have to kind of figure that out.

01:37:28.440 But let me tell you, Nevada, Oregon, New York, California.

01:37:33.360 Yes, we can have those Tupperware parties.

01:37:35.700 Well, then we're going to.

01:37:37.800 Then I strongly advise if you're not moving, then just.

01:37:43.460 Let's have a Tupperware party.

01:37:44.940 I'm saying find all you know who they are in New York.

01:37:48.160 There's like five conservatives.

01:37:49.580 So, you know who they are.

01:37:51.920 But thank you so much, Scott.

01:37:54.380 I appreciate it.

01:37:55.060 And we will be in touch.

01:37:56.220 Please keep us informed along the way so we can help.

01:38:00.720 I will.

01:38:01.540 And you will be getting a signed copy of the ballot.

01:38:04.000 That's what I was looking for.

01:38:05.400 That's what I was hoping for.

01:38:06.320 Thank you, Scott.

01:38:07.000 I appreciate it.

01:38:08.900 That's Scott Pressler.

01:38:11.160 And again, I nothing illegal.

01:38:16.220 I want transparency.

01:38:19.260 But as long as things remain on the books, we have got to beat them at their own game when it comes to legal votes.

01:38:31.660 Have to do it all.

01:38:32.880 Have to do it all.

01:38:34.000 All right.

01:38:34.360 Back in just a minute.

01:38:35.300 These days, your personal information is floating all around the place on the Internet.

01:38:39.040 In the era of social media, where platforms like Instagram have become the top app cyber criminals use to run their online scams, you need to be prepared to protect yourself in every way you can.

01:38:53.920 Here's one thing you can do, and it's the easiest thing you can do.

01:38:59.680 You can hire somebody else to watch for you.

01:39:02.640 You can get the people at LifeLock, who I think they're the best in cybersecurity.

01:39:08.180 They've been in it since the very beginning.

01:39:10.800 I mean, they were doing it where people will steal your credit card.

01:39:13.460 You're like, I'll stand on the street corner and shout my social security number out.

01:39:19.480 What difference does it make?

01:39:20.520 Well, it makes a lot of difference, especially now they have preventative measures to keep you safe and prevent anything from happening.

01:39:27.800 And then this is where it's really great.

01:39:58.180 Station ID.

01:39:58.640 A couple interesting things about that approach, Glenn, on engaging in these things that the laws, essentially, you might not like.

01:40:16.800 Number one, you know, the best way to get these things changed is to engage in them because the reason why ballot harvesting is legal and why it's encouraged and it's all in all these blue states is because Democrats feel they get an advantage out of it, right?

01:40:34.900 They believe they're winning elections because of it.

01:40:38.500 That's why it's there.

01:40:39.560 So if you go there and you play on that field and you take that advantage away and maybe get an advantage yourself, all of a sudden they're going to want those laws to go away and honestly that's the best outcome of all of it.

01:40:51.680 Look at what happened.

01:40:52.600 They say, you can't be on network television.

01:40:56.120 You can't do these things.

01:40:57.400 You know, you go find your own place on the Internet when it was a joke.

01:41:02.200 Now it's not a joke.

01:41:03.520 And the right dominates.

01:41:06.500 We dominate because we had to.

01:41:09.540 And now they want to shut it down.

01:41:10.640 Now they want to shut it all down.

01:41:12.020 Shut the voices down.

01:41:12.920 When they had the big advantage at the beginning, they didn't want to shut it down.

01:41:15.720 Right.

01:41:16.080 Of course, it's free speech.

01:41:17.460 Correct.

01:41:18.120 Now that goes away.

01:41:19.780 Secondarily, and it's one of the more, you know, obviously people have their feelings about the 2020 election.

01:41:25.460 We know that.

01:41:26.100 But one of the more compelling pieces of evidence, if you don't think it's stolen, is the idea that when you look at all 50 states from 2016 to 2020, almost all of them, Donald Trump underperformed in almost all the states from 2016 to 2020.

01:41:43.780 And you'd think like, well, if you're stealing an election, you're not stealing votes in like, I don't know, Alabama.

01:41:49.760 Right.

01:41:50.000 Like, why did he underperform by almost the same percentage in almost every state?

01:41:54.100 And in fact, he actually performed better in swing states.

01:41:58.380 So again, if you're stealing the election, it would be weird to steal more votes in the other states.

01:42:05.940 So, you know, and you can believe that or you're not believe it.

01:42:08.420 But one of the things, the most interesting part of that analysis is there is one state where he performed totally out of line with almost every other state.

01:42:18.160 49 of the 50, he's right in a very small window of how he performed in relation to 2016.

01:42:22.840 One state is different.

01:42:24.060 One.

01:42:25.160 That state is the state of Florida.

01:42:27.800 It is also the one state that Donald Trump outwardly said it was okay to vote by mail.

01:42:36.220 He opposed it all over the country.

01:42:38.480 But when he first started opposing it, people in Florida said, wait a minute, you don't understand how many older voters you have that are going to vote by mail.

01:42:48.200 You don't want to say that to people in Florida.

01:42:50.460 And Trump came out and said, hey, not in Florida.

01:42:54.020 Florida, they do it right.

01:42:55.040 It's okay in Florida to vote by mail.

01:42:57.060 And it was by far his best performing state in the 2020 election.

01:43:01.520 I hate early ballots.

01:43:05.340 I hate early ballots.

01:43:07.040 I hate voting by mail.

01:43:09.080 But I got to tell you, if we don't, we lose every time.

01:43:13.080 If you do not engage in it, you will lose.

01:43:15.680 The market right now, the market of voters are saying, you know, I kind of like voting early.

01:43:21.180 I kind of like voting by mail.

01:43:22.860 Now, fight hard to get those laws changed.

01:43:26.320 Yes.

01:43:27.260 But once the rules of the game are in place, you better play by them.

01:43:33.600 It's like, you know, there are people who, you know, I know you're a huge NBA fan, Glenn.

01:43:37.620 And it's like there were people, coaches, who were against the three-point shot coming into play back in the day.

01:43:43.920 And they said, I don't like this newfangled thing.

01:43:46.480 It's silly.

01:43:47.120 It's not authentic.

01:43:48.460 It's not pure basketball.

01:43:49.680 It's not metal, lark, lemon.

01:43:50.920 Right.

01:43:51.400 Sure.

01:43:51.940 And so they decided to not go after players who could shoot it.

01:43:55.640 And they didn't design their offense to play with it.

01:43:57.900 And over time, those coaches went extinct because people figured out, hey, this shot that's worth three points is better than the other shots that are worth two points.

01:44:08.640 They designed offenses around it.

01:44:10.040 They spaced the floor differently.

01:44:11.480 People like Steph Curry came in.

01:44:12.800 Now, that's almost all they shoot.

01:44:14.960 If you are going to be a holdout and say, look, I don't want to play with a three-point shot, you're going to lose.

01:44:20.100 Now, every offseason, you can go to the NBA and say, stop the three-point shot.

01:44:24.500 It's stupid.

01:44:25.480 And once you get that change done, you can go back to playing your old way.

01:44:29.660 But you can't play that way when the rules are the other way.

01:44:33.620 You will lose every single time.

01:44:36.160 Well, that's why I don't make holes in one when I golf.

01:44:39.060 Because a hole in one, you should get like 10 points for that.

01:44:42.300 Right.

01:44:42.980 And they only give you one.

01:44:44.040 So you don't go for them.

01:44:45.160 So I don't go for them.

01:44:46.300 I mean, that's not a high score win.

01:44:49.400 How good of a golfer are you?

01:44:51.380 Are you a good golfer?

01:44:53.060 Or am I?

01:44:53.880 Do you lose every time?

01:44:55.260 Do I look like a good golfer?

01:44:57.460 You know, of all the sports, I can see you playing.

01:45:01.000 Golf is...

01:45:01.360 No, come on.

01:45:01.740 More than bowling?

01:45:02.620 Okay, not bowling.

01:45:03.320 Yeah.

01:45:03.760 All right.

01:45:18.560 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:45:20.300 Hey, some really famous traders, gold traders, precious metals.

01:45:27.040 JC Parents, who runs AllStarCharts.com, indicated just recently gold may reach $5,000 an ounce sooner than we might expect, maybe by the end of the year.

01:45:38.640 Swiss Asia Capital CIO claimed that it'll reach $4,000 an ounce this year.

01:45:44.340 I hope that doesn't happen because that means other really bad things are happening.

01:45:49.080 But it is a hedge against insanity.

01:45:53.700 That's what gold is for.

01:45:54.960 When everything else is going down the tube, gold is there.

01:45:59.560 And it's stable, and that's why the price of gold goes up.

01:46:03.760 With every tube of 25 of the one-quarter ounce gold Mayflower Beck rounds, this is to celebrate the 400th year of the Mayflower, you'll also receive, at no charge, 10 one-ounce silver Mayflower rounds and 50 of the Mind Your Business silver Graham Bars.

01:46:39.200 We have an encouraging update on the condition of Damar Hamlin coming up.

01:46:50.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:46:53.200 Thank you so much for listening.

01:46:54.980 It is Thursday.

01:46:56.200 I don't know about you, but, I mean, I came to work yesterday for the first day.

01:47:02.380 These three-day work weeks, everybody should have them.

01:47:05.880 Yeah.

01:47:06.460 Everybody should have them.

01:47:07.840 I mean, you know, you could work hard like Johnny Carson used to and do four nights, but three really is the secret.

01:47:15.840 Maybe two.

01:47:16.380 The only thing I don't like about your schedule this week is you're doing three in a row.

01:47:19.540 I think you should spread them out a little bit.

01:47:20.900 Like, over a month.

01:47:22.120 Yeah.

01:47:22.860 That would be good.

01:47:23.560 I could do three shows a week, but over a month.

01:47:26.680 We should talk about this at some point.

01:47:27.600 There is a real movement going on for a four-day work week.

01:47:30.380 And I think it's real.

01:47:31.600 I think it's real.

01:47:32.540 I think it's coming.

01:47:33.680 I think we're going to have it.

01:47:35.100 You know why we will?

01:47:36.220 Because, I mean, did you see the McDonald's here in Texas that there's not a human in the store?

01:47:42.140 Yep.

01:47:42.360 No human.

01:47:43.740 Well, yeah.

01:47:44.320 Like, you go in.

01:47:45.540 One person is like, load the machine.

01:47:48.020 They're cooking the stuff, right?

01:47:49.280 But there's no cashiers.

01:47:51.340 No, I think they're overseeing the cooking.

01:47:53.140 Yeah.

01:47:53.960 They're just like, machine working.

01:47:56.240 Yeah.

01:47:56.560 Okay.

01:47:57.300 And, like, it was an old bank, I believe, right?

01:48:00.060 Yeah.

01:48:00.220 And you walk, you go through the drive-thru, and, like, it comes down a chute, and you just get your food.

01:48:04.140 Yeah, there's, like, nobody.

01:48:05.020 And, I mean, that is coming.

01:48:07.040 We've been talking about this, and everyone's like, you know, you're not going to put machines on.

01:48:12.140 Yeah.

01:48:12.440 Well, you know what?

01:48:13.860 By people not willing to work, you know, I am still, still working on my house.

01:48:24.680 How long until it's done?

01:48:26.160 Do you have any idea?

01:48:26.800 Two weeks.

01:48:27.240 A couple weeks.

01:48:27.580 And the thing is, the contractors cannot get people to work.

01:48:35.700 So, in my situation, I have a contractor who has started working with five other contractors in the area, and they're all the bosses and the owners and stuff, and they're just working together as a crew.

01:48:51.660 They'll go work on my house for a week, and then they'll go to somebody else's house, and then they'll go to somebody else's house, and they're sharing the burden because they can't get anybody to work.

01:49:01.900 I mean, who can we, please, America, you know, there is some, and I don't think the younger generation understands, you get self-worth out of working.

01:49:16.680 You do.

01:49:17.740 You feel better about yourself.

01:49:20.020 You just do.

01:49:21.460 From the guy who just said he wants to work three-day work weeks.

01:49:25.000 I've already done it.

01:49:25.880 I've already done all that hard work.

01:49:27.700 I did that for about 20 minutes in 1987.

01:49:30.880 Yeah.

01:49:31.260 You're all set.

01:49:31.880 I'm set.

01:49:32.520 You're all set.

01:49:33.060 Okay.

01:49:33.700 But I do actually think there is a real movement of that coming.

01:49:37.700 It will happen because of all of the jobs that are going to be lost.

01:49:40.600 I think that's part of it.

01:49:41.480 I think that's one of the ways society reacts to the mass automation.

01:49:44.900 You know, have you been following the chat GPT stuff?

01:49:47.500 Oh, yeah.

01:49:48.060 Oh, I've got to show you something.

01:49:49.400 Yeah.

01:49:49.680 I asked it, can you tell me about Glenn Beck?

01:49:57.680 And it put all the stuff.

01:49:59.320 And then I said, is he a good guy or a bad guy?

01:50:03.920 And it, you know, gave me a bunch of gobbledygook that was like, you know, we can't tell.

01:50:09.400 We're not judges.

01:50:10.820 We're just here as a machine.

01:50:13.520 But then I asked it to find information on Afghanistan.

01:50:19.680 And it actually kind of argued with me that Glenn Beck didn't involve his audience and they didn't do anything in Afghanistan to rescue people.

01:50:30.780 Okay.

01:50:31.060 You asked about Afghanistan as relates to you.

01:50:33.520 Correct.

01:50:33.980 Yeah.

01:50:34.160 And it said it has no access to any of that information.

01:50:41.120 That information is available.

01:50:45.380 Why is this this chat box that is is Google is afraid of it because Google said it's going to replace us.

01:50:54.960 Okay.

01:50:56.460 Um, it has no access to that information.

01:51:00.740 Don't fear the machine.

01:51:03.260 Fear the programming of the machine.

01:51:05.980 Yeah.

01:51:06.260 No, it's true.

01:51:07.140 And I think, too, in addition to just how it will manipulate information, because a lot of people are using it that way.

01:51:12.980 They're asking chat GBT, GBT questions, right?

01:51:16.180 Like, hey, give me this.

01:51:17.540 And they're getting what they feel are better results than you can find at Google, right?

01:51:21.560 I mean, I'm running simultaneously doing this show to see what it says compared to you.

01:51:26.840 Yeah.

01:51:27.160 And it's got to be better, right?

01:51:28.480 It's got to be better.

01:51:29.740 I mean, much better.

01:51:30.800 I mean, all it needs is a two double A battery to achieve that.

01:51:35.200 But, you know, it's also a creator.

01:51:38.880 And what's interesting about it is, like, you could say, write me a story about Glenn Beck going to the moon in the style of Agatha Christie.

01:51:48.580 And you'll just it will just write one in seconds.

01:51:51.580 And, like, now they're talking about these many jobs of people who who write content online, whether it's promotional content or news content or creative content.

01:52:01.740 You can just farm them out to chat GBT.

01:52:05.440 And it's gets you something pretty close.

01:52:09.120 So do a really good result.

01:52:11.320 Almost instantaneously.

01:52:12.680 We are at the place.

01:52:13.900 We should go back and get that Ray Kurzweil interview and the interview with the Google guys.

01:52:19.180 Remember Eric Schmidt from Google?

01:52:21.980 Yeah, we should go back and look at those because all the things we talked about and I was, like, warning against.

01:52:27.200 And I'm like, so what do you think is going to happen here?

01:52:30.940 It's all it's all happening now.

01:52:32.940 And I was thinking about this with Ray Kurzweil when he was on.

01:52:37.740 This is 10 years ago, maybe.

01:52:39.480 And I said to him, aren't these things going to make us weaker?

01:52:45.220 Because, for instance, right now you just ask Google any question.

01:52:48.720 Nobody looks anything up anymore.

01:52:51.080 And you don't even, you know, you used to have to work for it.

01:52:54.060 What was the name of that guy?

01:52:55.640 And you'd get people involved and then you'd have it close and then you worked for it.

01:53:00.540 You know what I mean?

01:53:01.260 And that work helped you remember it a second time.

01:53:05.880 Now you don't have to remember anything.

01:53:09.040 Hey, Google, what is blah, blah, blah.

01:53:11.140 And it will.

01:53:11.900 I'm sorry for that if I set your.

01:53:14.100 Yeah, right.

01:53:14.580 Your device off.

01:53:16.060 Sorry about that.

01:53:16.840 Sorry.

01:53:17.740 But, you know, it weakens us.

01:53:21.160 If you start taking and producing everything, all the creative, you are nothing in a generation.

01:53:30.000 You're nothing but a cog in the wheel.

01:53:33.420 Mm hmm.

01:53:33.700 And you also don't know what's true, right?

01:53:38.380 Like, for example, there's a bunch of people out there, very few in general sense, but there's a sort of a movement out there to own your own media, right?

01:53:48.280 Like, if you want a movie or a series, right, you buy the DVD, have physical media, because if you just buy the stuff online, you never know what's going to happen with it.

01:53:59.160 It's kind of true, right?

01:54:00.320 Like, so you go back and, you know, it's always sunny in Philadelphia.

01:54:03.000 A series has been on for, I think, 16 years, 16 seasons.

01:54:07.040 They've now banned five or six of the episodes for some sort of ridiculous standard of wokeness on a program that is wildly unwoke intentionally.

01:54:19.760 That literally, in multiple episodes, uses the N-word.

01:54:23.380 Like, it's that offensive.

01:54:25.820 Some of those episodes are still online, but other episodes where, you know, one of the characters, you know, she thinks she's a comedian, she comes up with a terrible character that is offensive, is offensive racial stereotype.

01:54:38.800 Again, it's not being praised in the series, it's being mocked, but they've banned these because she wears blackface or something.

01:54:45.320 I mean, it's the idiocy and the double standard.

01:54:48.360 But again, that show no longer exists if you don't have physical media.

01:54:53.500 I mean, you could dig it up somewhere online.

01:54:55.080 But if you, what you purchased, you no longer have purchased.

01:54:58.880 Think about that when it comes to a fact argument.

01:55:01.660 A book will tell you, the books that you, the documents you keep saving, right, Glenn?

01:55:06.220 You keep purchasing and saving to make sure that they don't go away.

01:55:10.040 Those documents exist.

01:55:12.060 You can look at them and you can see them.

01:55:14.020 And they were, at least at one point, online.

01:55:16.320 But what happens when one of those documents is offensive?

01:55:19.540 What happens when one of those documents doesn't support the narrative?

01:55:21.900 What happens when one of those documents needs to be censored for whatever reason?

01:55:25.460 And you can't find it anymore.

01:55:26.880 And the history changes a little bit.

01:55:29.220 And maybe Glenn wasn't a guy who was helping people in Afghanistan escape.

01:55:33.860 He was making the problem much worse.

01:55:35.860 And in the way of government officials, when those things change, there's no way to know.

01:55:40.440 And if all you're doing is asking, I won't name the devices because they'll all go off and yell at you.

01:55:46.920 You mean like Alexa?

01:55:47.800 Right.

01:55:48.100 Yes, like that one.

01:55:49.320 Because that's what my kids do.

01:55:50.840 I see it happen all the time.

01:55:51.920 Oh, I know, I know.

01:55:52.440 Instead of trying to remember it, they're just like, hey, Sarah.

01:55:57.120 Sarah.

01:55:57.620 Hey, Sarah, what's the answer to this?

01:56:00.160 What time is this happening?

01:56:01.280 What's the, you know, and it's like that is a problem because you're not internalizing it.

01:56:06.760 It's not being held by you.

01:56:08.200 You don't know the knowledge.

01:56:10.140 It's just like I can access it whenever I need to when this device is there.

01:56:13.560 And what happens when you can't access the information?

01:56:18.900 Right.

01:56:19.020 I mean, that is coming at some point just because the world will break down at some point.

01:56:26.220 It will.

01:56:26.860 I mean, it might be a thousand years from now.

01:56:29.060 Could be tomorrow.

01:56:30.000 Could be in a way we don't expect.

01:56:31.160 Right.

01:56:31.740 But what happens when you can't access that information?

01:56:36.680 You stand around the machine and keep pushing the button going, food, food, food, food, food.

01:56:43.740 Brondo.

01:56:44.860 Food.

01:56:45.700 Yeah.

01:56:46.860 And not to, you just mentioned the Ray Kurzweil interview that we did years ago.

01:56:51.420 I mean, what happens when we get to the singularity?

01:56:56.240 I mean, that's down the line.

01:56:57.440 But when the information is just like, I'm going to access this pod of information and

01:57:02.840 it's going to be implanted essentially into my brain.

01:57:04.880 That's coming faster than you think.

01:57:06.180 Matrix style.

01:57:07.000 Right.

01:57:07.860 Transhumanism is coming faster than you think.

01:57:10.020 Right.

01:57:10.180 When that happens, again, where's, who's controlling what you're importing?

01:57:14.860 How do you know what you think and what the algorithm wants you to think?

01:57:21.860 You're so scared.

01:57:23.100 I mean, we are.

01:57:23.920 It's just, it's just, it's crazy.

01:57:26.960 It's just crazy that we're not talking about these things.

01:57:30.820 By the way, we got to get to the good news.

01:57:33.880 Let me take a quick break and we'll come back with some really good news.

01:57:38.580 Monday night, you know, I think a lot of the country was a little in shock on what happened.

01:57:44.000 Sure.

01:57:44.240 With tomorrow, Hamlin.

01:57:45.020 Yeah.

01:57:45.220 And we have some good news on that.

01:57:46.660 We'll do that in just a minute.

01:57:48.440 It's time to take your pet experience to the next level.

01:57:50.900 You love your dog.

01:57:51.940 You want him to be both healthy and happy.

01:57:54.660 And that's why maybe you should try rough greens.

01:57:57.460 Now, if you have a cat.

01:57:58.980 No, who cares?

01:58:00.220 But dogs.

01:58:01.500 I started feeding my dog, Uno, rough greens over a year ago.

01:58:06.160 As I've told you many times on the program, he is a completely different dog.

01:58:11.200 He's a, he was like a puppy again.

01:58:14.420 I mean, I think it gave him probably at least a year on his life.

01:58:20.640 I mean, I don't have any data that would back that up.

01:58:23.280 I just feel like he changed and he became younger and healthier.

01:58:28.640 Um, and this is where he is now is kind of where he was.

01:58:35.360 What was it?

01:58:36.040 Two and a half years ago, three years ago when I started giving him rough greens.

01:58:39.860 Um, I think it bought him time and it's been good time with the family.

01:58:44.640 Uh, the folks at rough greens are so confident that your dog is going to love this.

01:58:47.800 It's not a dog food.

01:58:48.680 It's a supplement that you put on the food.

01:58:50.500 They, uh, want to give you a free bag, just a little trial bag for a couple of days.

01:58:54.260 So your dog can try it.

01:58:55.420 You make sure that he likes it.

01:58:57.580 If they like it, then, you know, you'll get the next bag.

01:59:01.020 And, uh, then you just start watching the changes over the months.

01:59:04.080 It's amazing.

01:59:05.080 Rough greens.com slash Beck rough greens.com slash Beck or call 833 Glenn 33.

01:59:10.620 That's 833 Glenn 33.

01:59:17.020 Sign up for the free newsletter today at glennbeck.com.

01:59:34.840 Welcome.

01:59:35.640 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:59:37.300 We have an update for you.

01:59:38.220 Ian Rappaport, uh, from a big NFL reporter, uh, really encouraging, uh, reports from Damar

01:59:44.800 Hamlin, his situation, of course, the NFL player, uh, collapsed on the field, had to be resuscitated

01:59:50.300 twice on the field before being removed by ambulance.

01:59:54.060 Wow.

01:59:54.280 Um, here's his, his latest update.

01:59:56.560 Damar Hamlin opened his eyes last night and is responsive.

02:00:00.040 Truly incredible.

02:00:01.140 One thing that is very clear from speaking to those close to him, they are endlessly appreciative

02:00:04.840 of the medical care given to Hamlin on the field immediately.

02:00:07.400 And then over the last 72 hours, Damar Hamlin has also been gripping the hands of those

02:00:12.260 close to him.

02:00:13.080 A very positive sign.

02:00:14.860 Okay.

02:00:14.980 So here's the thing.

02:00:16.080 He was, um, the reason why we didn't have updates is because they put him in an induced

02:00:22.660 coma and they needed to lower his body temperature.

02:00:26.820 So his, his body wouldn't swell, you know, his heart wouldn't swell, his body wouldn't swell.

02:00:31.680 So, um, they could treat things, but they had no idea until they started to pull him out of that

02:00:38.340 coma, uh, if it was working at all.

02:00:41.220 So apparently it did work, at least to some extent.

02:00:46.180 And as he, you know, this is a hard comeback.

02:00:50.000 Yeah.

02:00:50.200 Look, you're still talking about someone in critical condition and intensive care.

02:00:53.080 So you don't want to make any pronouncements of optimism that are true, but this is a very

02:00:57.300 good development.

02:00:58.260 And you're right.

02:00:59.020 The way they do this, it's really fascinating where they, they cool the body down so much

02:01:03.100 so there's no swelling and then very slowly, uh, the warm it back up.

02:01:08.420 Put him on defrost.

02:01:08.980 Yeah.

02:01:09.260 Basically.

02:01:09.580 Yeah.

02:01:09.760 Basically kind of like putting him on defrost over a very long period of time, a couple of

02:01:13.060 days.

02:01:13.680 They did this to Walt Disney too, you know?

02:01:15.860 No, I don't think.

02:01:16.440 He's no, he was in the freezer and oh, he'll be, oh, there's somebody right now that's so

02:01:21.300 pissed at Disney.

02:01:22.100 They're like, I am, I'm putting him not on defrost.

02:01:25.320 I'm putting him on high and don't do that.

02:01:27.700 I will tell you this.

02:01:28.480 If, if, if I know anything about the current state of the Disney corporation, they put him in the

02:01:32.360 microwave about 20 years ago.

02:01:35.880 With foil.

02:01:36.940 Yeah.

02:01:39.200 It's sad, but true.

02:01:40.980 Wrapped him in aluminum foil and turned that thing on for three hours because I don't ever

02:01:46.060 want to hear from that guy ever again.

02:01:49.160 It's so sad, but it's totally unrelated to the, the positive developments here.

02:01:53.280 But I was, I was talking to my wife the other day.

02:01:54.660 We were, you know, we're planning a, you know, family vacation for later in the year.

02:01:57.860 And, you know, of course the kids, they, they, we went to Disneyland, uh,

02:02:02.640 right before COVID and they're right in the primary area of wanting to go to Disneyland.

02:02:07.620 And like, I was like, I mean, should we consider Disney again?

02:02:09.740 She's like, no, I will not give them any of my money.

02:02:11.660 Like, I mean, that is, I won't.

02:02:13.760 What does, and you are the ultimate Disney guy.

02:02:16.360 I won't do it.

02:02:17.220 Literally love Disney and the history of Disney.

02:02:20.120 And you're done.

02:02:20.880 It's my favorite place to go in any place in the world, because I love the history of

02:02:27.600 it.

02:02:27.760 I love the mechanics.

02:02:29.520 I love all the engineering of it, everything.

02:02:32.940 Uh, and I will never, never give them a dime.

02:02:38.260 Nope.

02:02:39.360 Nope.

02:02:39.940 That's incredible.

02:02:40.700 It's gotta be hitting them.

02:02:42.040 I mean, of course you see a change at the top of the organization.

02:02:45.200 I don't know that there's going to be a positive change by the way, but, uh, you know, you get

02:02:48.600 a new CEO or the old CEO is now the new CEO back in.

02:02:52.340 How much impact is this?

02:02:53.420 It's gotta be massive to Disney.

02:02:55.920 Well, what was it I saw yesterday?

02:02:56.940 Half the country feels this way.

02:02:58.220 Uh, Hollywood lost, what was it?

02:03:00.020 A trillion dollars in revenue last year, um, just in their stock and everything else.

02:03:06.740 The entertainment industry lost a buttload and it doesn't seem to affect them.

02:03:12.120 No, it doesn't.

02:03:13.480 They just constantly, you know, assign responsibility to something else.

02:03:19.120 It's the new technology.

02:03:20.540 It's more competition.

02:03:21.420 And some of that is true, but it's also this.

02:03:24.880 It's also you, you know, you want to do a better job and, and have your bottom line go

02:03:31.980 up.

02:03:32.140 Get out of Hollywood and live in a regular small town for a while and just see what real

02:03:39.540 life is like for most of America.
