00:00:00.000 AMAC. Choosing the best advocacy and benefits group at random can end up, you know, not being

00:00:07.000 the way to go. They don't have your best interest in mind all the time. The group I recommend is

00:00:13.260 AMAC. It stands for the Association of Mature American Citizens. It stands head and shoulders

00:00:18.620 above the competition. For one thing, you're going to get the wealth of great benefits that

00:00:23.280 you would expect to get with other groups baked into the cake. But on top of that, you're joining

00:00:27.300 a group that will be an advocate for you, fighting for the things that you believe in and

00:00:32.760 a powerful force in Washington standing with you. Stand with AMAC as they fight the good

00:00:38.400 fight. Become a member today. The benefits are great. The cause is greater. Join now at

00:00:42.980 AMAC.us slash Beck. That's A-M-A-C dot U-S slash Beck. AMAC is better, better for you, better

00:00:50.940 for America.

00:00:57.300 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn

00:01:27.280 Beck Program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. It's Friday. We've got a lot

00:01:35.520 going on, especially here in Texas. We'll, well, I will tell you, there's going to be a brawl.

00:01:44.240 There's going to be a brawl on this show. Yes, there is. And it is, it's going to finally

00:01:48.720 be settled in, uh, well, in 60 seconds. Stand by.

00:01:56.960 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:59.200 Relief factor. Phillip lives in Minnesota. And, uh, after a series of leg injuries over the course

00:02:05.300 of several years, he found himself dealing with pain and stiffness that was debilitating. He tried

00:02:10.200 a ton of different approaches to manage the pain. Nothing could quite get him to the point where he

00:02:14.340 felt like he was living a normal life again. But thankfully, Phillip listens to the show.

00:02:19.520 Hey, Phil. Uh, it's how he discovered relief factor. He was skeptical at first. Most people are

00:02:26.120 decided to give it a try. And within a couple of weeks, he says the pain began to disappear at six

00:02:31.820 weeks. He noticed that the pain was gone entirely, but also the stiffness that he had been feeling for

00:02:40.040 years was gone as well. Phillip got his life back. I got my life back. Try it.

00:02:46.040 Try the three week quick start. You'll know if it's going to start working for you within three

00:02:50.240 weeks. And if it doesn't work for you, stop. If it does do what I've done, do what Phillip does.

00:02:56.060 You just keep taking it and watch the pain go away. And you don't feel it in your system.

00:03:02.160 It's relief factor. It's not a drug developed by doctors. And it's 70% of the people who try it go on

00:03:07.420 to order more month after month. I do because it works. Relieffactor.com. 800-583-84. 800-583-84.

00:03:16.800 It's relieffactor.com. So here we are in a situation in Texas we should not be in. There is no reason

00:03:27.000 why we're in this situation. The Electric Reliability Council of Texas is the one that actually runs and

00:03:39.220 oversees all of the power grid and all of the companies that are making power. And there's a

00:03:47.880 problem there. There's a real problem there. Now, this is a... Is it a public-private partnership?

00:03:54.220 I mean, I know it's overseen by the government of Texas, but I think it's a private corporation.

00:04:01.880 This is one of those things that no one in Texas knew existed until this week. And now everyone is

00:04:08.380 an expert on it. Everyone knows exactly what ERCOT was doing and how they screwed this up. It's

00:04:13.660 becoming the big talking point down here. But the name Reliability is what the R is.

00:04:21.920 Yeah, and they're not doing it. And I don't know if you've seen the meetings, the meeting that they

00:04:30.080 had two weeks ago, and the minutes of the meeting is absolutely unbelievable. Let me give you this.

00:04:39.520 Top officials at ERCOT, the Texas Council of Regulates the State Electricity Grid, spent

00:04:44.460 their time talking about the impending winter storm during the entity's board meeting last week.

00:04:51.880 A recording of the board meeting from KSAT Channel 12 shows that the conversation went like this.

00:05:02.040 Quote,

00:05:02.400 One thing I want to say before we really get into the presentation is it's actually going to be winter

00:05:07.360 here pretty soon. As many of you, those in Texas know, we have a cold front coming this way. We'll

00:05:12.860 probably see our winter peak later this week or very early next week. The operations have issued an

00:05:19.420 operating condition notice just to make sure everybody's up to speed with their winterization

00:05:23.380 and ready for several days of pretty frigid temperatures to come our way. So more on that in the

00:05:29.240 next few days, but it does look like we're going to have a little bit of winter weather here to

00:05:32.820 contend with over the course of the rest of the week and into the next week. End quote.

00:05:39.200 That was the entire discussion of winterization for the Reliability Council here in Texas.

00:05:49.400 So they covered it.

00:05:50.320 Yeah, they covered it. Yeah, they covered it. And then they started talking about cowboy boots and

00:05:54.320 everything else.

00:05:55.700 It's fascinating. I mean, I, you know, I mean, there was a little bit of a

00:05:59.220 bit of an issue with power going out. And honestly, that's just one of the issues.

00:06:03.400 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:06:03.860 The electricity is one of the issues. I will say I didn't lose electricity at all.

00:06:09.320 My electricity was 100% reliable. We didn't even have it blink the entire time.

00:06:13.360 Mine went out all the time.

00:06:14.800 Ours didn't, which I don't know why. Maybe I've heard that, like, if you're near a hospital,

00:06:20.260 if you happen to be in the same, they keep those up no matter what. So that may have been

00:06:23.680 the reason. But like, I will say, I did get woke up. I woke up on Monday morning to a very loud

00:06:31.440 alarm going off in my home.

00:06:33.420 Okay.

00:06:34.100 And I was like, oh, the kids must have, like, opened up the door before we turned the alarm

00:06:38.000 off in the morning or whatever.

00:06:39.460 Right.

00:06:39.820 Tried to turn the alarm off. Didn't go off, which has never happened before.

00:06:42.820 Right.

00:06:43.060 So we start looking around. I'm like, oh, gosh, is there a fire? Like, what is happening?

00:06:46.940 And my wife turns around the corner and has this interesting thing happen where gallons 1.00

00:06:53.340 of water are gushing from the ceiling.

00:06:56.480 Oh, you got a new waterfall.

00:06:58.820 Yeah. I was like, did you put in a new water effect? Like, what exactly?

00:07:03.380 Right.

00:07:03.620 Yeah. And it was kind of pouring through the alarm onto the floor. And what happens, Glenn,

00:07:09.320 when water comes from your ceiling onto the floor, it starts to build up. So there's

00:07:14.820 inches and inches and inches of water inside your home.

00:07:18.800 Really?

00:07:19.060 While it's two degrees outside.

00:07:21.280 Right.

00:07:21.800 Which is really fun.

00:07:23.380 So we couldn't take a shower one day, but you didn't have a problem with that.

00:07:26.980 No, you didn't have a problem at all.

00:07:28.000 Yeah, I could have just hopped in any time.

00:07:30.860 So we go, we run around trying to figure out what's going on. I go up into the attic and

00:07:36.420 I realize there's a burst pipe. So there's a pipe.

00:07:39.320 In our house, which by the way, was insulated and is still burst somehow and is, is just

00:07:45.260 spewing water all over the place. There's no local shutoff, but I do remember because

00:07:50.380 I'm a homeowner, Glenn.

00:07:51.680 Right.

00:07:52.060 And I know one, how to do one thing in the home.

00:07:55.580 Turn the water off.

00:07:56.220 Turn the water off in case of emergency.

00:07:58.120 Right.

00:07:58.280 It's the only thing I know how to do.

00:07:59.300 Out by the street.

00:07:59.760 Everything else. If the house goes on fire, I just let it burn to the ground.

00:08:02.580 Right.

00:08:02.840 I have no, I have no ability to correct any other problem in this home.

00:08:06.400 Right.

00:08:06.620 Except to turn the water off.

00:08:08.400 Right.

00:08:08.500 Luckily, there's snow and ice all over the ground. And of course, the panel to do this

00:08:13.420 is under the snow and the ice.

00:08:15.540 Right.

00:08:15.720 So that means digging through the snow and the ice to open up the little compartment while

00:08:20.980 water's just gushing into my house. And of course, we were asleep. So we have no idea

00:08:25.040 how long it was gushing into the house before the alarm went off.

00:08:27.940 Right.

00:08:28.000 It was a while.

00:08:28.740 Right.

00:08:28.940 Because there was a lot of water all over the place.

00:08:31.160 Right.

00:08:31.340 So I go out and I, and I, I open up the, I finally get the thing open. I, of course,

00:08:37.100 obviously the, the, uh, the valve is frozen.

00:08:40.940 Sure.

00:08:41.380 So I can't turn it.

00:08:42.540 Right.

00:08:43.100 Uh, but so I eventually, you know, after a few minutes and a lot of swearing, I'm able

00:08:48.880 to actually get the thing turned.

00:08:50.760 So I run in as the hero, of course, that I am.

00:08:53.560 And I run into the house and I go upstairs and I look at the pipe and the water is still

00:08:58.660 gushing out of the pipe.

00:08:59.840 Wow.

00:09:00.220 Now I thought that was interesting because I just turned it off.

00:09:02.580 Right.

00:09:02.900 But I thought to myself, you know, it's going to take a little bit because there's water

00:09:05.680 in the system.

00:09:06.480 Got to get it out of the pipe.

00:09:07.420 Got to get out of there.

00:09:08.100 So this is going to end any second.

00:09:09.200 So I sat, sat, sat there and I just kind of stared at the pipe for 30 seconds and then

00:09:14.220 like a minute and then like a minute and a half and two.

00:09:17.340 And then I started yelling at the pipe because I think if you yell loud enough at the pipe,

00:09:22.740 right.

00:09:23.120 It's going to use French.

00:09:25.200 Did you speak any French words?

00:09:27.040 I came up with all new words for this situation.

00:09:29.800 All new French words.

00:09:30.660 Did you, have you asked and said, pardon my French?

00:09:33.720 I was respectful at the beginning to the pipe.

00:09:36.940 I will say that broke down.

00:09:38.720 Right.

00:09:39.140 Okay.

00:09:39.420 Over time.

00:09:40.080 Quickly.

00:09:40.640 And very quickly.

00:09:41.960 Yeah.

00:09:42.180 All right.

00:09:42.560 And it just kept gushing and gushing and gushing and gushing.

00:09:44.900 Yeah.

00:09:45.240 Yeah.

00:09:45.420 Yeah.

00:09:45.660 And I just, I kept, I said,

00:09:47.340 turn, I kept screaming at it to turn off, which it would not do.

00:09:50.900 It was like not voice activated at all.

00:09:52.720 No voice activated pipe.

00:09:54.180 It's unbelievable.

00:09:55.320 Yeah.

00:09:55.460 Wow.

00:09:55.720 That's, well you're living in the stone age.

00:09:58.000 So my wife is calling the city and calling various random companies. 0.87

00:10:05.840 She's Googled.

00:10:06.640 Right.

00:10:07.120 Like this is what you do in this situation.

00:10:08.760 Right.

00:10:08.980 And so I would say maybe 40 minutes later, the city gets out there and turns the water

00:10:15.640 off.

00:10:16.460 Hmm.

00:10:16.740 So the water stops at this point.

00:10:18.400 I don't know.

00:10:18.940 Six, eight inches of water is throughout the house.

00:10:21.800 And there's like, I'm trying to protect certain rooms, like hoping that I can like save the

00:10:26.780 room.

00:10:26.900 And then I lose that line.

00:10:28.460 And, you know, like we just kept falling back, you know, like retreating.

00:10:32.460 It's like Normandy.

00:10:33.620 Oh my gosh.

00:10:34.380 And I like Normandy, like an idiot, Glenn, you know, just plastic bins, just pushing

00:10:39.700 water out the door.

00:10:40.980 Like I have no defense.

00:10:42.320 There's like, it's coming down at like, you know, probably 50 gallons a minute.

00:10:45.780 What time did you go?

00:10:47.560 No, I, I will say we, we called the company to come out.

00:10:51.400 They come out almost immediately, which is amazing.

00:10:53.640 I mean, I, I can't believe they came out this fast and they start cleaning the thing

00:10:57.180 up and we were talking to the guy and he's like, yeah, he's like, you'd be surprised

00:10:59.600 how many people we get here and this is going on and the house is filling up with water and

00:11:03.340 they're just sitting on the couch.

00:11:04.840 They're just like, they're just like, screw it and letting it happen.

00:11:08.240 I was like an idiot doing everything I could to get the water out of the house.

00:11:11.720 So eventually we get the thing all dried out and you know, I mean, it's, but

00:11:15.520 the house is a catastrophe.

00:11:17.180 I mean, like it's going to be six months of, of disaster.

00:11:19.960 Yeah.

00:11:20.380 We're going to, I'm sure be moving out to, because I mean, the entire floors of the entire

00:11:25.020 house are going to have to be repaired.

00:11:26.400 All the, you know, all the, or redone completely.

00:11:29.160 It's going to be lose the house type of stuff for months.

00:11:31.320 So, you know, here's the thing that really pisses me off about this story because I saw,

00:11:36.860 I saw what happened on Monday because your, your wife was, you know, on Instagram immediately.

00:11:43.060 She wasn't with the buckets.

00:11:44.540 It's she was right there.

00:11:45.940 She was just taking pictures.

00:11:46.680 She was just taking pictures and posting.

00:11:48.180 Yeah.

00:11:48.440 And saving her legitimately.

00:11:50.480 We're in the middle of this.

00:11:51.540 The water's still pouring through the roof and you know, I've got, I'm setting up plastic

00:11:55.720 bins.

00:11:56.060 I'm bailing out water and I come around the corner and I see her wheeling in her Peloton.

00:12:02.020 Like she's saving the stupid exercise bike.

00:12:04.540 That is so funny.

00:12:05.500 And I'm like, well, what are you doing?

00:12:07.200 And then all the, all the dust settles and I go into the room and her Peloton is safe.

00:12:11.140 That one was, I don't know if it was safe.

00:12:12.880 I mean, it got water on it.

00:12:13.760 So it probably isn't safe because it's got all sorts of electronics in it.

00:12:16.480 But then next to it are her weights.

00:12:20.040 Like the, the, the, the rubber and metal things that you lift for exercise weights.

00:12:26.460 She pulled those out of the room to save the weights of all things in the world.

00:12:34.720 It's the most resilient thing in the household.

00:12:37.160 It's metal and rubber.

00:12:38.640 Yeah.

00:12:38.780 The picture's gone.

00:12:39.920 Yeah.

00:12:40.160 Everything else is screwed, but she's got the metal weight. 0.78

00:12:43.560 She got the metal weight.

00:12:44.280 So, yeah.

00:12:45.100 So, so I'm watching, uh, I'm watching her.

00:12:47.780 I didn't see her pull the weights out, but you know, she needed one hand, uh, you know, 0.99

00:12:51.900 for the phone and probably needed two hands for the weight.

00:12:54.320 So I didn't see that part.

00:12:55.740 Uh, but I, I watched it and my first reaction, well, I should say my first reaction was, oh

00:12:59.960 my gosh, poor Stu and Lisa.

00:13:02.000 Then my next reaction was, wait a minute.

00:13:06.380 I have been doing construction in my house and I've been renovating my house for about a

00:13:14.780 year, spent all kinds of money.

00:13:18.040 All I had to do was wait for a storm to burst a pipe and it all would have been taken care

00:13:23.520 of by insurance.

00:13:26.000 I'm ripped off.

00:13:27.240 I feel really ripped off right now.

00:13:29.520 I feel like the dumbest guy in the world.

00:13:31.640 Cause the, my, my next, whatever, three, six months sound a lot like the thing you did

00:13:37.680 by choice.

00:13:38.540 Yeah.

00:13:38.920 Which is, uh, and paid for, paid for, and paid for where all I had to do was wait for a

00:13:44.600 stupid burst pipe.

00:13:46.400 So you pissed me off.

00:13:48.440 You pissed me off.

00:13:49.480 Yes.

00:13:49.680 Thank you.

00:13:49.980 Well, you know what?

00:13:50.380 You pissed me off a little bit too.

00:13:51.920 Oh really?

00:13:52.380 Uh, yeah.

00:13:52.900 Uh, a little bit.

00:13:53.980 Yeah.

00:13:54.360 Because, um, as I said, I turned the water off, but the water didn't go off.

00:13:59.160 Huh?

00:13:59.660 I, well, how would that happen?

00:14:01.140 Right.

00:14:01.480 It doesn't seem possible.

00:14:02.300 Did I just screw it up?

00:14:03.180 Like very pop?

00:14:03.880 That was certainly my, in the moment, in the moment was my explanation.

00:14:07.340 You should go with that moment.

00:14:08.920 No.

00:14:09.560 Because we learned later that what happened was, it was the sprinkler line, which I guess

00:14:16.560 is supposed to save our house from a fire and did a great job because no fire could have

00:14:21.780 been lit at that moment, Glenn.

00:14:23.800 Right.

00:14:24.120 When the whole house was under water.

00:14:25.720 Right.

00:14:25.980 Right.

00:14:26.080 The fire wouldn't have burned it down, I don't think.

00:14:28.360 Um, but, uh, it was a separate line.

00:14:30.580 So when you turn off the water, the one thing I knew how to do in the house, it doesn't

00:14:34.420 turn off the sprinkler line.

00:14:35.620 Of course not.

00:14:36.040 Of course not.

00:14:36.580 That would be crazy.

00:14:37.400 Right.

00:14:37.820 So.

00:14:38.300 You didn't know that?

00:14:39.440 No, I didn't know that.

00:14:40.320 But you know who did know that?

00:14:41.800 I don't know.

00:14:42.700 Who?

00:14:43.200 You.

00:14:44.180 I don't.

00:14:44.840 What are you talking about?

00:14:45.460 Because you told me after the incident that someone came to your house from your neighborhood.

00:14:52.500 Yeah.

00:14:52.980 And said, hey, by the way.

00:14:54.740 Right.

00:14:55.240 Be careful with these sprinkler lines.

00:14:56.980 Make sure you drain the sprinklers before, uh, before the freeze, because they can burst

00:15:02.000 really easily.

00:15:03.120 Right.

00:15:03.380 And then Glenn had that information and locked it inside a little lock box so that no one

00:15:09.840 else would know.

00:15:10.940 Well.

00:15:11.420 So now he has a dry house and no one else does.

00:15:16.580 Thank you, Glenn.

00:15:18.020 Well, you're welcome.

00:15:18.860 Did it slip your mind?

00:15:20.300 So, no, here's what I thought of.

00:15:22.100 I didn't even know I had a sprinkler in my house in Texas.

00:15:27.380 Apparently you have sprinklers and you're, you know, like you have an offices, you have

00:15:31.600 sprinklers that pop out of the ceilings and it's like some law or insurance thing, or I

00:15:36.540 don't know what it is.

00:15:37.340 Oh, it's great.

00:15:37.980 It's great.

00:15:38.380 Whatever it is.

00:15:38.960 It's fantastic.

00:15:39.600 It's wonderful.

00:15:40.180 I didn't even, for two years I lived in the house.

00:15:42.480 I didn't even know we had sprinklers.

00:15:44.320 Then a friend calls me, I think on Saturday or Sunday and says, Sunday would be the day

00:15:48.720 before this happened to me, by the way.

00:15:49.980 I just wanted to point out what day that was.

00:15:50.920 Could have happened to me, too.

00:15:51.900 And so he said, do you have sprinklers?

00:15:54.780 And I said, yeah.

00:15:57.280 And he said, are they off?

00:15:58.440 And I said, I don't know.

00:16:00.640 I have no idea.

00:16:01.960 How do you turn them off?

00:16:02.760 What is that?

00:16:03.700 So he showed me, he came over and he and a friend came over and they helped me drain

00:16:08.360 the lines.

00:16:08.920 And I just thought, I mean, that's great.

00:16:13.520 I don't know anybody with sprinklers in their house.

00:16:16.180 I mean, have you ever known anyone with sprinklers in their house?

00:16:19.300 No, I, you know, and I don't, they're not everywhere.

00:16:21.300 I mean, but you think, because what I find interesting about it is like, you look at that

00:16:25.760 and be like, that's a great feature.

00:16:27.500 What a great feature of a house.

00:16:28.760 It's really not.

00:16:29.140 It's adding to the safety of the house.

00:16:30.640 Yeah.

00:16:30.740 It's going to protect the house.

00:16:32.420 No.

00:16:32.660 No.

00:16:33.280 It actually destroys the house.

00:16:35.060 It destroyed the house.

00:16:36.020 Yeah.

00:16:36.220 We, we just built the vault over at Mercury one and you know, it has to have fire suppression

00:16:41.960 in it and it's all full of rare artifacts and documents.

00:16:45.540 And they're like, well, let's go put some sprinklers in.

00:16:47.600 We're like, no, no.

00:16:49.820 And it's the same thing.

00:16:51.140 I mean, it just, sure.

00:16:52.940 The outside of the building, maybe if it's steel, fine, but everything else is destroyed.

00:16:59.740 It's all destroyed with the water.

00:17:01.700 Yeah.

00:17:02.240 I mean, and I, Glenn, so the company that we called that came out in an hour, uh, is,

00:17:07.900 and we have friends, tons of friends who the same thing has happened to, not just with

00:17:12.500 sprinkler lines, but all sorts of pipes bursting.

00:17:15.060 Uh, and the, uh, same company we called out that came out in an hour on Monday is now currently

00:17:21.000 on a four week wait.

00:17:22.860 Well, Sarah apparently had the same thing.

00:17:26.520 And after your incident, you didn't call Sarah and say, you know what happened to my

00:17:32.900 house?

00:17:33.220 Am I right, Sarah?

00:17:34.100 Absolutely.

00:17:34.580 Did you get a call from him?

00:17:35.940 Nope.

00:17:36.440 Nope.

00:17:36.600 Sarah follows my wife on Instagram, right? 0.59

00:17:38.880 She knows that's the only way I communicate with people.

00:17:41.460 My wife's Instagram posts, but yeah, but yeah, it's true because like in this, the friends

00:17:46.940 that we talked to today, I had the same thing happen.

00:17:49.600 We're not home.

00:17:50.460 They were in Hawaii.

00:17:51.740 They were like pulling a Ted Cruz.

00:17:52.960 They like went on vacation to avoid all those bastards.

00:17:56.800 I'm going back to Ted Cruz on that.

00:17:58.620 Oh, we got to talk about that.

00:17:59.840 Bastard was not around.

00:18:01.000 Well, your pipes were like, he could have come over with a plastic container came by, never

00:18:05.860 came by.

00:18:06.600 Ted Cruz never showed up, cleared zero water out of my house.

00:18:10.520 I had to do it on my house.

00:18:11.080 What else is he doing as a senator?

00:18:13.100 I know.

00:18:13.500 What else?

00:18:14.080 Your job is a senator.

00:18:14.700 If you can't count a senator in for bailing your house out or coming in and making sure

00:18:20.880 that your fireplace is lit or whatever, what good is he?

00:18:26.680 Yeah.

00:18:26.900 And he was gone for a full night.

00:18:29.420 He brought his kids down to Cancun.

00:18:32.280 Then he flew back the next morning.

00:18:35.500 God only knows.

00:18:36.620 I hope to God, Stu, you say something because I'll bet you he was gone the night your water

00:18:42.240 pipe burst.

00:18:43.160 I bet you're right.

00:18:43.900 And you know what?

00:18:44.340 As a U.S. senator, when power is out, heat is out, he should be going door to door with

00:18:48.880 sticks and mashing them together to start fires.

00:18:51.580 Thank you.

00:18:52.180 That's what he should be doing.

00:18:53.580 Oh, man.

00:18:54.640 Well, you know, all of this happened because of, well, an outdated system.

00:18:59.260 We weren't prepared for global warming or cooling or whatever we're supposed to be.

00:19:02.800 Even though scientists say that has had nothing to do with climate change.

00:19:05.060 That is total bullcrap.

00:19:06.660 We'll tell you about it.

00:19:07.640 And the Attorney General Ken Paxton from the state of Texas is going to be on talking a

00:19:13.480 little bit about ERCOT, the shady little organization that didn't put weather stripping

00:19:20.220 down on the doors of the nuke factories.

00:20:24.900 10 seconds, station ID.

00:20:25.960 So, Ocasio-Cortez is now saying that Texas shows us what happens when you don't have

00:20:47.040 green energy.

00:20:48.720 And, you know, I have to say, she's right.

00:20:51.460 She is right.

00:20:52.300 About this.

00:20:52.880 About this.

00:20:53.400 She is right.

00:20:53.900 For the first time, she is right.

00:20:55.820 Because, I mean, Texas has all kinds of wind power and solar power and everything else.

00:21:00.660 But it didn't work.

00:21:04.760 And so when we say, you know, they didn't have green energy, she's exactly right.

00:21:11.040 Because the windmills were frozen solid.

00:21:14.180 The problem here is, is that Texas has gone progressive with its electrical grid, with everything

00:21:23.260 they're doing.

00:21:23.960 They are cutting down on coal and gas, and they're putting a lot of wind power in.

00:21:31.980 Well, that's great unless it's not windy or apparently if it's cold.

00:21:38.200 Now, if it's cold and you have air caught, you're set.

00:21:45.120 You are set.

00:21:45.980 Because those things look so beautiful when they're at a full stop and they have icicles

00:21:50.100 hanging off of them.

00:21:51.760 They didn't winterize them.

00:21:53.540 You can winterize these things, but they didn't winterize them.

00:21:56.960 So it's not a problem with us not having green energy.

00:22:01.220 It's a problem that the public-private corporation in bed with the government and this mysterious,

00:22:12.860 shady corporation that nobody knows about, which is run by a bunch of people who don't

00:22:17.080 even live in the state.

00:22:17.980 One of them lives in Germany.

00:22:21.300 So they're not suffering any of the consequences on this.

00:22:24.460 It's the fact that they didn't do their job.

00:22:30.460 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:22:32.800 Oh, but don't worry.

00:22:33.900 I mean, we can always sue them.

00:22:35.360 Oh, no, we can't.

00:22:36.500 They're protected by the government, so we can't sue them.

00:22:38.940 Isn't that great?

00:24:02.960 It's Friday.

00:24:03.420 Bill O'Reilly is joining us in about a half an hour with a recap of the news of the week.

00:24:07.200 Ken Paxton is our Texas Attorney General.

00:24:11.340 And this state is in real, real trouble right now.

00:24:16.700 We have got food shortages.

00:24:18.580 We have all kinds of water damage, and we are just getting back online with our power grid.

00:24:26.940 And the governor has issued a statement yesterday that he would like ERCOT, which is this weird

00:24:36.160 oversight company that is supposed to oversee and make sure that our electricity grid is stable

00:24:46.420 and reliable.

00:24:47.220 They completely dropped the ball.

00:24:49.660 There's an investigation starting there, and we have Ken Paxton on the phone to tell us about that

00:24:54.520 and so much more.

00:24:55.260 Hi, Ken.

00:24:55.640 How are you?

00:24:57.000 Hi, good morning.

00:24:57.700 It's been a tough week.

00:24:58.740 Boy, you ain't kidding.

00:24:59.960 Can you first explain quickly, and we've got so much to go through, and I don't mean to rush,

00:25:05.440 but I want to make sure that we get to as much as we can with you.

00:25:09.040 Can you explain what the hell ERCOT even is?

00:25:12.860 Okay, so ERCOT was put together back in World War II, and it was a bunch of Texas utilities

00:25:20.280 that sort of coordinated so that they could use their excess capacity to send the industries

00:25:26.760 along the Gulf Coast to help production for the war.

00:25:29.340 So that's how it got started, and then after the war, they realized there were some benefits

00:25:33.420 to working together.

00:25:34.720 So they developed this network, which is lots of energy companies sort of working together

00:25:42.000 to create power, and then they use their excess capacity and go where it's needed.

00:25:46.780 Okay, obviously that wasn't working, and it is also the only power, I don't even, reliability

00:25:56.760 system or whatever it is, it's the only one in the country that has also litigation protection

00:26:03.920 from the government.

00:26:05.820 So you can't sue this company.

00:26:08.480 What is this?

00:26:09.540 Yeah, well, so this is an entity that the legislature oversees and also the Public Utility Commission

00:26:16.820 in Texas, which is appointed by the governor.

00:26:18.480 So I believe if there is some type of liability protection, if it's at least at the state level,

00:26:25.200 the legislature could fix that this session.

00:26:27.240 They could say, you know, you're not immune from liability.

00:26:32.500 And is this a public-private partnership between the state of Texas and these energy companies?

00:26:39.540 So it's an independent nonprofit organization that is running on its own, but it's overseen

00:26:48.240 by a state agency called the Public Utility Commission, which has three commissioners appointed

00:26:53.300 by the governor.

00:26:54.100 So that commission is supposed to oversee the operations of this independent 501C4, is what

00:27:02.080 it is.

00:27:02.500 Okay, so we are now, we're building all kinds of windmills in the state.

00:27:07.080 I don't know why we're doing that.

00:27:09.680 They're completely unreliable.

00:27:11.560 That's not, it wasn't a weather problem with the, or wasn't a wind problem with the windmills.

00:27:18.620 It was that they didn't, they didn't weatherstrip anything.

00:27:22.840 You know, ERCOT didn't do anything to get these things to protect them against a storm

00:27:28.660 like this.

00:27:29.200 I have some sympathy for the, against the argument of, we should be weatherized, we should have

00:27:39.440 all of these things.

00:27:40.340 No, this happens about once every 10 years in Texas.

00:27:43.900 So we shouldn't have the salt trucks and the snow plows.

00:27:47.320 It's a waste of money.

00:27:48.640 But weatherizing our gas plants and our windmills seems pretty obvious.

00:27:55.360 You know, it does seem pretty obvious because I think there are other parts of Texas that

00:27:59.720 are not in ERCOT, like along, around Beaumont, East Texas, and also in El Paso.

00:28:05.240 And I think they had almost no problems because guess what?

00:28:08.400 They had winterized their, their plants.

00:28:11.660 Is it true?

00:28:12.600 We know it can work.

00:28:13.500 And we know that, you know, other, other parts of the state that are not part of ERCOT

00:28:17.380 did that.

00:28:18.040 Is it true that the, that ERCOT did their winterization on a Zoom meeting because of

00:28:26.940 COVID?

00:28:27.540 They, they didn't actually do anything.

00:28:29.540 They just did it on Zoom.

00:28:32.080 You know what?

00:28:32.780 I don't know the answer to that.

00:28:34.020 That's part of, I think what we're going to find out where we've started in my office.

00:28:37.560 We, we get to have the opportunity to look at 501C3s and 501C4s.

00:28:42.680 We've started our investigation to try to understand exactly what happened and why they weren't

00:28:47.400 prepared.

00:28:49.300 So these guys are making a boatload of money, a boatload of money.

00:28:54.360 The board member, president and CEO makes almost a million dollars a year on this.

00:28:59.760 Five of the board members don't even live in the state.

00:29:04.360 One of them lives in Germany of all places.

00:29:06.900 Um, and, and I just, I, I am for the free market, but this company, uh, whatever it is,

00:29:16.540 doesn't seem like the free market.

00:29:18.580 It's not responsible for to anyone.

00:29:21.740 It seems I don't like being in having any corporation in bed with a government of any

00:29:27.440 government.

00:29:28.160 What are you going to do?

00:29:29.540 What, what, what are the, what are the plans here?

00:29:32.460 I think the first thing is to figure out exactly what happened, which is why we've

00:29:36.420 started, we started the investigation, you know, a day or two ago to figure out exactly

00:29:40.720 what, what are they doing?

00:29:42.880 How are they doing it?

00:29:43.920 I think this has been not so transparent to, to, to us and to the citizens of Texas.

00:29:50.660 We're going to at least create some transparency and find out how they operate and then make

00:29:54.940 suggestions to the legislature as to what needs to be changed and move forward from there.

00:29:59.500 But until we know exactly how they did this and why we have these problems, it's hard

00:30:04.720 to say what the remedy is until we know what the, what the problem, what the real problem

00:30:08.100 is.

00:30:09.440 So Ken, we are, I mean, if Texas goes down, we lose the entire country.

00:30:15.040 I know, you know, that in 2008, nine, 10, the recovery was mainly on the back of Texas.

00:30:21.400 I think we created 60% of all jobs in the country.

00:30:25.160 Um, we can't go down, um, if, if we get into this green energy garbage, uh, we're toast.

00:30:34.040 Texas is Texas partly because a, you're still free here, but you have cheap energy or, or

00:30:42.060 is, is the governor going to stand against this push for the green new deal?

00:30:47.360 Cause that's all anyone is talking about is how, how are, how are we're not prepared

00:30:53.400 for the new world because we're not all green.

00:30:57.460 Well, certainly Texas, we're, we're all about, uh, the most reliable source of energy and

00:31:03.060 we produce a lot of it in our own state.

00:31:04.660 So we've looked at all sources of energy, but the reality is we all know that right now

00:31:09.840 these renewable sources of energy are not reliable and they're not cost efficient until

00:31:14.660 they are, um, I'm very confident that the legislature and the governor will not put their, uh, their

00:31:21.920 full efforts into relying on, on unreliable sources of energy.

00:31:25.620 What happened to our nuclear power plant?

00:31:28.000 Why, why did, why did the gas and the coal and the nuclear, what happened there?

00:31:34.100 You know, I think it's the same problem.

00:31:35.680 It doesn't sound like they winterized any of it.

00:31:38.440 That's what's so shocking to me.

00:31:40.540 It doesn't seem like it would be that expensive given that other places do it around the country,

00:31:46.380 including other places in Texas.

00:31:48.340 So I think that's going to be one of the first questions that we're going to, when we do our

00:31:51.820 investigation, we're going to ask, why did you not winterize when El Paso and East Texas

00:31:57.020 and other parts of the country do that as a matter of course, it doesn't make any, it doesn't

00:32:00.920 make a lot of sense unless you can tell us there's some, some reason we don't, we don't,

00:32:05.260 we don't understand at this point.

00:32:06.380 Is there anything that the state can do?

00:32:10.240 I mean, I'm so concerned about, you know, the price of plywood has gone from $15 a sheet,

00:32:17.840 regular plywood to almost $40 a sheet.

00:32:21.220 And that was before this happened.

00:32:23.960 This is going to cost a fortune and also the labor to do it.

00:32:30.020 I mean, there's all kinds of regulations on who can touch what.

00:32:33.860 I mean, Stu has had plumbers out to his house, but because he had a fire suppression

00:32:37.640 system, they can't do anything.

00:32:39.820 They can't touch it.

00:32:40.560 And it'll be months before they get to that stuff.

00:32:43.120 Is there any kind of regulation that can be safely cut to help people out?

00:32:51.160 Yeah, that's a great question.

00:32:52.680 I think that's something that takes the legislature and that the governor with his emergency

00:32:56.000 orders could actually implement right now is to have a review of all, all regulations

00:33:02.100 affecting construction and maintenance of power plants and other electricity generation

00:33:08.640 sources to make it less expensive and easier to upgrade these things so we don't have to

00:33:14.660 experience this again.

00:33:15.940 So, yeah, I think there are definitely things that the state can look at doing to make it

00:33:20.420 less expensive and make sure it gets done more quickly.

00:33:24.240 Ken, I want to ask you, really, this is kind of a personal question, especially with the

00:33:32.020 loss of Rush Limbaugh this week.

00:33:34.880 You know, Biden said, and I'm quoting, that his administration is going to focus on demented

00:33:39.240 and dangerous white supremacists.

00:33:42.240 But through critical race theory, anyone who stands up for America and our traditional values

00:33:49.800 is called a white supremacist, there is something approaching that appears to be extraordinarily

00:33:57.460 dangerous.

00:33:58.500 I moved to Texas and I moved my company down here, a media company, which is now the largest

00:34:03.820 subscription right-leaning media company in the world.

00:34:08.480 And it's based here in Texas.

00:34:10.520 And I am terrified that, and so is 90% of the talent, that our voices are going to be squashed.

00:34:18.240 Will Texas stand against this craziness and stand for the First and Second Amendment?

00:34:25.160 Absolutely.

00:34:25.980 And I have the same fear as you do, both from the government, from the federal government,

00:34:30.040 but also from technology companies.

00:34:32.040 Yes.

00:34:32.400 So we're in the middle of fighting the Biden administration already on immigration.

00:34:37.260 I expect that there will be more issues coming up, including some related to free speech.

00:34:42.160 And part of the issue with these technology companies is that they are controlling platforms

00:34:46.300 that are monopolistic, and those monopolistic platforms are the gateway to speech in our

00:34:52.800 country.

00:34:53.160 And so we've got serious issues with those companies as well.

00:34:55.920 That's why we've got lawsuits right now against Google and potentially more lawsuits down the

00:35:00.060 road.

00:35:00.280 But as you can imagine, when you take on those forces, there's a lot of force that comes back.

00:35:07.240 And Texas, hopefully, isn't the only state standing up to fight these massive entities that may

00:35:13.860 be trying to limit our speech.

00:35:15.140 Are you working with other states to stand?

00:35:21.300 I mean, I really think that it is our attorney generals and our states, our governors, attorney

00:35:27.160 generals, and legislatures in the states that are going to have to stand up and say,

00:35:32.120 this is a, this is, these are our lines, and the lines are the Bill of Rights.

00:35:38.960 And I'm sorry, we are going to be a sanctuary state for the Bill of Rights.

00:35:44.060 We will not go over the cliff with the rest of the country.

00:35:48.780 Yes.

00:35:49.240 And I think there are AGs that are going to stand up and fight.

00:35:52.060 I'm concerned that we don't have the numbers that we've had in the past, but I'm certainly

00:35:56.120 working behind the scenes to bolster that number and encourage other AGs to help us.

00:36:01.140 Because I don't want it to be just Texas.

00:36:03.800 We need help.

00:36:05.140 There's this, the forces against, against freedom are great.

00:36:09.240 And I think that we need help.

00:36:12.240 And how can the people help you?

00:36:16.040 What should we do?

00:36:17.900 I think the, they need to encourage their own attorney generals to get involved in the

00:36:21.420 fight, to be involved in, and looking at what the Biden administration is doing, to be

00:36:25.740 involved in these lawsuits against technology companies.

00:36:28.780 And a lot of them are.

00:36:29.500 So right now, that's, that's where the fight is for free speech.

00:36:34.460 Ken Paxton, the attorney general of the great state of Texas.

00:36:38.820 Good luck on your ERCOT investigation.

00:36:41.400 And we look forward to having you back.

00:36:43.700 Thank you.

00:36:44.440 Thanks, Colin.

00:36:45.040 Have a great day.

00:36:45.600 Bye-bye.

00:36:47.740 All right.

00:36:48.340 What decisions are you going to look back on and say in 10 years from now and think,

00:36:51.560 man, did I really do that?

00:36:53.160 I mean, how did I miss that?

00:36:54.720 Bitcoin comes to mind.

00:36:56.780 Financial decisions that you're making right now can reap benefits and dividends down the

00:37:03.020 road.

00:37:03.420 Now, one of them, one decision in particular that you can and should make today, if you're

00:37:09.680 a homeowner, is placing a call to American Financing and letting their mortgage consultants do a free

00:37:14.820 mortgage review for you.

00:38:00.480 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:03.420 Boy, this country is just taking body blow after body blow after body blow.

00:38:07.180 Non-stop.

00:38:07.880 Non-stop.

00:38:08.420 It is non-stop.

00:38:09.180 We have four days of 2021 that weren't absolutely horrific, and then day five was the Georgia

00:38:14.420 elections, then January 6th, and then ever since then, it's been seemingly non-stop

00:38:19.780 non-stop catastrophe.

00:38:20.800 Yeah.

00:38:21.620 Non-stop.

00:38:22.760 2021 is kicking 2020's ass right now, because all the things that sucked about 2020 are

00:38:28.260 still here.

00:38:29.580 Right?

00:38:30.820 And the things that were good have been taken out by executive order.

00:38:36.500 It's like, the pandemic is still raging here.

00:38:40.180 We're still dealing with all that nonsense.

00:38:42.380 And, you know, now we're not even allowed to stay in our houses just because they're

00:38:47.600 underwater.

00:38:48.440 In Texas, at least.

00:38:49.500 Well, yours is.

00:38:50.300 I look at it.

00:38:51.260 Don't look at it as underwater.

00:38:53.380 Think of it as an indoor ice rink.

00:38:56.800 Well, that's a feature you don't see on Zillow that often.

00:38:59.320 You don't.

00:39:00.100 Indoor ice rink.

00:39:01.000 Yeah.

00:39:01.820 Indoor swimming pool.

00:39:03.440 Who doesn't?

00:39:04.180 The house would sound gigantic.

00:39:05.440 It would sound gigantic.

00:39:07.200 You're like, wow.

00:39:07.720 It's 2,000 square feet, but we have an indoor ice rink.

00:39:11.220 It's called the kitchen.

00:39:15.040 Did you see this, by the way, too?

00:39:16.340 I have a very old pug, 16 years old.

00:39:20.280 Yeah.

00:39:20.940 And, you know, I let him out to go to the bath.

00:39:22.260 Of course, it's snow and ice and it's miserable.

00:39:26.760 And, oh, you do have the video.

00:39:29.100 I don't know if we...

00:39:30.120 Okay, so as you can see, Piper is walking out to the ledge. 0.99

00:39:38.320 And he's smart enough to know, this is ice.

00:39:42.120 It's a big dog.

00:39:42.880 And I shouldn't be on it.

00:39:43.460 Younger dog knows that's supposed to go on the ice.

00:39:45.300 All right, so she's curious, but realizes, no.

00:39:49.400 The ice isn't fully frozen, by the way.

00:39:51.540 Yeah.

00:39:52.300 Now, my other dog is 16 and blind and deaf.

00:39:56.220 Now, you see Old Man River.

00:39:59.040 Miles, our dog.

00:39:59.740 Following the footsteps in the snow, and he's walking straight on to the ice.

00:40:05.240 He has no idea he's on the pool.

00:40:10.020 And at any moment, the ice could break.

00:40:14.300 I love the way she's just...

00:40:15.520 And thank the Lord, at this moment, Stu happened to look out the door and saw this happening.

00:40:19.580 And he's running out in socks.

00:40:22.520 Look at you.

00:40:23.320 In my socks.

00:40:23.860 I'm sorry to laugh, but...

00:40:24.560 Okay, so your wife, your wife is, your wife is a nightmare. 1.00

00:40:29.260 Oh, oh.

00:40:29.880 Your wife is a nightmare. 1.00

00:40:31.160 In what way?

00:40:31.660 She's like, and God help him.

00:40:33.800 He could fall through the ice at any point and die.

00:40:36.840 God help him.

00:40:37.720 How about you help him?

00:40:39.040 I mean, God's up there like, yeah, I gave you two hands and two feet.

00:40:44.860 Why don't you go out and get the dog?

00:40:46.700 Thank God for you, Stu.

00:40:48.580 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:50.600 Rough Greens is our sponsor.

00:40:52.320 Rough Greens, you know...

00:40:55.040 Well, look, as you saw, I just rescued...

00:40:57.940 I mean, am I a hero?

00:40:59.060 Sure, for rescuing my dog, Miles, who was crossing the frozen pool.

00:41:04.040 In your socks.

00:41:05.300 I may have been in my socks while doing it.

00:41:07.120 The point is not that.

00:41:08.880 The point is that Miles being alive at all at this point is probably because of Rough Greens.

00:41:12.800 He's like 16, isn't he?

00:41:14.080 Yeah, 16.

00:41:14.720 16 years old, and he's still going strong.

00:41:17.340 I mean, well, he's blind and can barely walk, but he can walk more than he did before he was eating Rough Greens.

00:41:23.340 He's deaf, too, but...

00:41:24.180 Yeah, he's not entirely blind, which is a good thing.

00:41:27.620 Yeah.

00:41:27.820 He can see waving hands.

00:41:29.400 Wow, good.

00:41:30.000 So that's about it.

00:42:23.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:32.620 Hello, America.

00:42:34.560 It's Friday, and Bill O'Reilly joins us with a recap of the week, and what a week it has been in 60 seconds.

00:42:46.840 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:48.560 Pauletta lives in Texas.

00:42:51.580 She was going through a really, really rough ordeal with horrible hip pain.

00:42:55.080 Got so bad that she started having trouble walking.

00:42:57.680 Going up a flight of stairs was a nightmare for her.

00:43:01.140 Pauletta was beginning to wonder if she's ever going to be able to walk normally again.

00:43:05.740 Unlike most people, when she first heard about Relief Factor on this program, her first response was,

00:43:12.380 I got to give that a try.

00:43:15.600 Pauletta, I have to tell you, good for you.

00:43:17.920 That's not what I did.

00:43:19.240 It took me a long time before I just was like, okay, okay, okay.

00:43:24.080 Well, she tried it.

00:43:25.220 Within three weeks, Pauletta says her pain was gone.

00:43:29.180 Not diminished, gone.

00:43:31.840 These days when she wants to take a flight of stairs, she takes a flight of stairs.

00:43:35.160 It's that simple.

00:43:36.540 Pauletta got her life back by trying Relief Factor. 1.00

00:43:40.100 You'll know in three weeks if it's going to reduce or affect you at all.

00:43:43.680 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month because it works.

00:43:49.340 You'll know quickly.

00:43:51.100 Try it.

00:43:51.720 Relief Factor.

00:43:53.380 It's relieffactor.com.

00:43:55.860 Relieffactor.com is where you can find it.

00:43:57.780 Or you can call 800-583-84.

00:44:00.560 800-583-84.

00:44:02.220 It's relieffactor.com.

00:44:08.600 Yes, now from the stages of New York, Mr. Bill O'Reilly from BillOReilly.com.

00:44:17.160 Hey, Bill, how are you?

00:44:18.220 I'm the same, Beck, which is tragic for everyone.

00:44:24.680 I love it.

00:44:25.800 This is a favorite part of the interview every time to hear how you respond.

00:44:30.140 Bill, let's start with Cuomo and what's going on with Governor Cuomo.

00:44:37.880 This is a nightmare.

00:44:40.560 The National News spent more time on Ted Cruz going to Cancun, taking his kids to Cancun,

00:44:48.200 and then returning the next day, leaving his kids there.

00:44:51.780 They spent more time on that scandal yesterday than they did on Cuomo.

00:44:58.340 Well, what I find interesting about the Cuomo situation is it parallels President Trump's situation

00:45:06.040 and Gavin Newsom's situation, the governor of California.

00:45:09.680 California, all three have been damaged by COVID beyond repair.

00:45:16.420 That's after some wisdom, Beck.

00:45:18.360 That is wise.

00:45:19.640 That is wise.

00:45:20.820 So this is the bigger picture now.

00:45:23.260 So I've known Andrew Cuomo 40 years.

00:45:28.480 I'm not a buddy of his, but, you know, I can get him on the phone or I used to be able to get him.

00:45:33.360 I'm going to need him.

00:45:35.580 And he is a totalitarian.

00:45:38.040 I mean, he governs that way.

00:45:41.500 I mean, he comes off like, oh, yes, I'm liberal and I'm enlightened.

00:45:44.740 But that's not how he governs.

00:45:47.040 He governs like most New York politicians.

00:45:49.040 You know, you do it my way.

00:45:51.540 Right.

00:45:52.100 That's how he does.

00:45:53.240 All right.

00:45:53.700 Right.

00:45:53.920 So when COVID broke out, foolishly, he signed an executive order saying that senior citizens who were residents of nursing homes,

00:46:05.340 even if they were infected with the virus, had to be readmitted, which was a disaster.

00:46:10.920 I don't know of any other governor in the country that signed an order like that.

00:46:16.780 All right.

00:46:17.440 Now, why Cuomo did it, I don't know.

00:46:19.900 I mean, it's just dumb.

00:46:22.180 I think everybody would agree.

00:46:24.280 But then he could do it because the press in New York is corrupt.

00:46:29.760 They're all left wingers.

00:46:31.420 They don't care about the news and they don't care about challenging Cuomo.

00:46:34.840 So he could do it under the radar.

00:46:37.420 But then when people started dying big time and families started to speak out, Cuomo had a problem.

00:46:46.520 And he dealt with the problem the way most New York politicians do.

00:46:50.240 He tried to cover it up.

00:46:52.560 OK.

00:46:53.100 And he got away with it again for a while because of the New York press corps, the local news here.

00:46:58.340 OK.

00:46:59.480 But then the attorney general, a far left woman named Letitia James, said, hmm, I want to be governor.

00:47:08.300 All right.

00:47:09.660 And I know that Andrew is covering us up.

00:47:14.520 So I'm going to just put that out there in a very noble sense that I'm looking into it.

00:47:21.980 Bang.

00:47:23.640 Bang.

00:47:24.660 Cuomo's dead.

00:47:25.400 And I mean that.

00:47:26.480 He is finished politically.

00:47:28.340 Really?

00:47:29.260 His office, forget it.

00:47:29.980 Oh, please.

00:47:30.760 Please make it so.

00:47:31.620 Appointment to the Biden administration, forget it.

00:47:35.020 I don't think he's going to run again in 2022.

00:47:38.160 I don't think he's even going to run again.

00:47:39.320 Number one, this is never going to go away.

00:47:42.760 Number two, there'll be massive amounts of lawsuits directed at Cuomo himself and his administration

00:47:48.840 because of all the people who died, more than 15,000 of them in New York nursing homes.

00:47:54.160 And number three, the state of New York is in a shambles from top to bottom.

00:47:58.980 Nothing works here.

00:47:59.900 So, you know, what's coming to mind right now is stick to the devil you know who is in the wings that could possibly be.

00:48:08.000 Well, James, she'll run, Lutetia James, who you can't get any further left than she is. 1.00

00:48:14.180 Right.

00:48:14.640 She's the attorney general.

00:48:15.820 Right.

00:48:16.580 But at this point, my prediction is this whole thing's going to blow up.

00:48:21.860 All right.

00:48:22.660 That the people in New York are going to say, we're throwing them all out because that's how bad it is.

00:48:28.880 And that's what's happening in California.

00:48:31.740 Newsom's going to be booted.

00:48:33.660 I'm predicting he'll be booted.

00:48:35.700 OK, this summer, they'll he'll be on the ballot and they'll have a new governor there.

00:48:39.540 And it's because even though California is the most progressive, furthest left state in the union, not only in the union, but in the history of the United States, there's never been a place further left in California.

00:48:53.780 The folks have had enough.

00:48:55.600 They can't open the schools.

00:48:57.080 They can't go to a restaurant.

00:48:59.200 COVID killed Newsom because Newsom did all this, hurting millions of Californians and then went out to dinner at the French Laundry without a mask.

00:49:07.980 It's amazing how this has really killed those people.

00:49:10.640 And Ron DeSantis is doing really well in Florida.

00:49:14.380 Yeah.

00:49:14.640 I mean, and this is the key there.

00:49:17.260 DeSantis in Florida had pretty much everything open.

00:49:21.960 You know, they had some restrictions, but not that many.

00:49:24.420 And his state's ratio of COVID infections is about the same as California.

00:49:31.780 How do you explain that?

00:49:32.960 Because there is a way to get COVID and the way to get it is if you go into a group of people you don't know.

00:49:43.740 All right.

00:49:44.460 That's how you get it.

00:49:45.940 You don't get it from shutting it.

00:49:48.360 You don't get protected from shutting everything down because people in California still go to their parties and they still go to the beach.

00:49:55.820 They still do those things, despite the state officials saying, don't do it.

00:50:00.400 They do it.

00:50:01.540 That's how you get it.

00:50:03.080 You go to places that you don't know who's there and what's going on.

00:50:08.880 The infection is so vicious that if you're in a crowd of people, okay, and you don't know who those people are, there's a likelihood you're going to get COVID.

00:50:17.340 A likelihood.

00:50:18.640 That's how vicious this thing is.

00:50:21.100 And the third component of this thing, when I said in the beginning, I want to explain some people don't, and I can't believe anybody wouldn't be subscribing to BillOReilly.com at this point.

00:50:30.140 I mean, everybody has to.

00:50:31.840 I'm a subscriber.

00:50:33.980 I know you are.

00:50:34.860 I mean, and that's because you're a brilliant man, Beck, and you figured out, I really need this service.

00:50:39.560 But anyway, look, Trump lost the election because of COVID, because there are enough people terrified that said, oh, you know, I'm going to try something else.

00:50:50.000 And then the voting apparatus in the individual states was tilted because a lot of people said, oh, I don't want to go to the polls, so let me vote five months in advance and not sign my name on the envelope.

00:51:02.700 And I said, okay, sure.

00:51:04.600 Let me go back to Cuomo.

00:51:08.340 Assemblyman Ron Kim has, I mean, he's described, it sounds like a movie in, you know, The Godfather.

00:51:16.720 I just told you that.

00:51:18.060 Right.

00:51:18.320 And you believe, you believe Ron.

00:51:22.540 Do I believe him?

00:51:23.600 Yeah.

00:51:23.900 Sure.

00:51:24.580 Okay.

00:51:25.200 So.

00:51:25.620 Of course I believe him.

00:51:26.600 Right.

00:51:26.920 I don't know Ron, but I know Cuomo.

00:51:31.260 If you do something that Cuomo doesn't like, he gets on the phone and yells at you.

00:51:35.760 He doesn't care who you are.

00:51:37.200 I mean, he might not yell at the Cardinal, Dolan, okay, but he'll yell at everybody else.

00:51:42.560 But there's a difference between yelling at somebody and saying, I'm going to destroy your career.

00:51:46.700 I mean, it's mob-like tactics that Cuomo was.

00:51:49.400 Okay.

00:51:49.620 But come on.

00:51:50.320 I mean, I'm not even worried about that.

00:51:52.360 That's New York.

00:51:54.220 That's what happens in New York.

00:51:57.100 Do we all understand?

00:51:59.440 I mean, look up Boss Tweed.

00:52:02.140 I know.

00:52:02.700 Okay.

00:52:03.140 I know.

00:52:03.480 It's from ever.

00:52:05.460 This is how people behave here.

00:52:07.800 I'm going to get you.

00:52:09.580 You know, okay, but it's New York.

00:52:12.360 It's not like Cuomo was going to go out of his way to get Ron Kim.

00:52:17.560 You don't even know who Ron Kim is.

00:52:19.260 He just doesn't like what he said.

00:52:20.840 So he goes, ah, I got my house and beat you up.

00:52:24.880 Okay.

00:52:25.440 Come on.

00:52:25.800 It's ridiculous.

00:52:26.900 But the understanding that Andrew Cuomo, to this moment, has not admitted he made a mistake.

00:52:35.880 Oh, no.

00:52:36.540 In that executive order.

00:52:37.600 I mean, come on.

00:52:39.280 I know.

00:52:39.760 All right.

00:52:40.260 Let me kind of change the subject a bit.

00:52:43.160 Joe Biden is now forcing Chicago's top federal prosecutor to resign.

00:52:48.880 This prosecutor is going against some of the most powerful Illinois Democrats and their associates for corruption.

00:52:58.420 And, I mean, we all know that, you know, Illinois and New York have corruption in common.

00:53:03.480 This is almost exactly the same story as what happened in Ukraine with Joe Biden.

00:53:12.780 And the temperature in Ukraine is the same as it is in Chicago.

00:53:16.120 Yeah, it is.

00:53:17.100 It is.

00:53:17.580 So here's why this is happening.

00:53:19.320 You want to know, Beck?

00:53:20.140 Mm-hmm.

00:53:20.760 Does Stu want to know?

00:53:22.540 I want to know.

00:53:23.260 I mean, I'm a subscriber to BillOReilly.com, so I probably already know.

00:53:26.200 No, you don't.

00:53:26.540 This is brand new.

00:53:27.220 Oh, okay.

00:53:27.600 Good.

00:53:27.960 Brand new for the Glenn Beck program.

00:53:29.980 All right.

00:53:30.500 Go ahead.

00:53:30.800 This is happening because of Rahm Emanuel.

00:53:35.080 So Rahm Emanuel, former mayor of Chicago, up to his eyebrows in this federal investigation.

00:53:44.500 Rahm Emanuel is top advisor to Joe Biden.

00:53:47.460 And Joe Biden, I don't think at this point in his life, even knows where Chicago is.

00:53:51.200 It's somewhere west of Washington, somewhere.

00:53:54.800 Okay, so Rahm goes in and goes, oh, yeah, this guy in Chicago, he's not doing a right thing.

00:54:04.380 And Joe goes, well, what should I do?

00:54:06.280 And, well, I think we might want to replace him.

00:54:08.700 That's what happened.

00:54:11.920 All right.

00:54:13.140 Wait, wait, Beck.

00:54:14.280 What?

00:54:14.640 You never give me props.

00:54:16.100 You never say, I didn't know that, O'Reilly.

00:54:19.020 My God, that is so incisive.

00:54:21.020 Your analysis is brilliant.

00:54:22.560 I don't speculate.

00:54:23.440 I just work on facts.

00:54:28.800 Back with Bill O'Reilly in one minute.

00:54:30.840 Stand by.

00:54:32.300 So if you decided to sell your home and move into another one because, you know, you just

00:54:36.620 don't have enough stress in your life already, you might want to shoehorn some more in.

00:54:41.220 You know, what the heck?

00:54:42.460 I mean, go ahead.

00:54:44.800 Be you, boo.

00:54:46.320 Crazy train comes along and you.

00:54:49.440 Did that disgust you, Sarah?

00:54:51.060 I saw the, did that.

00:54:54.040 I mean, I'm just saying.

00:54:57.840 You're going to have to, if you're selling your house, you're going to have to do repairs

00:55:00.880 to your house or whatever.

00:55:02.060 You need somebody who is, who has a team, somebody who can walk into your house and say, hey,

00:55:07.800 here are the quick fixes to help your house sell faster and for more money.

00:55:11.300 And here are the people that I know that can get the job done.

00:55:14.120 They're not going to rip you off or whatever.

00:55:15.720 You need somebody who knows what they're doing, has all of the connections you need, knows the

00:55:21.840 market and has a great track record.

00:55:23.920 That real estate agent you're going to find for free at realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:55:29.140 It's a free service to you.

00:55:31.000 We will find the right person in your area or the area that you're moving to that has the

00:55:36.320 answers.

00:55:37.000 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:55:39.580 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:55:42.540 10 seconds.

00:55:43.380 Station ID, boo.

00:55:44.280 Bill, let me switch to probably the biggest news of the week for conservatives, the death

00:56:05.800 of Rush Limbaugh.

00:56:07.340 Your thoughts?

00:56:09.120 Well, I tweeted right after that, and it's a fact-based tweet.

00:56:14.280 That Mr. Limbaugh was the most successful radio broadcaster in the history of the country,

00:56:21.340 and the impact that he had on his audience changed the country and gave another view of

00:56:33.080 politics and life that went up against the colossus of left-wing media.

00:56:39.060 So I think that's true.

00:56:40.500 I don't think anybody can argue with that.

00:56:43.360 On the day he died, I wanted to be especially sensitive to his family and friends.

00:56:47.740 I did not know him very well.

00:56:50.800 I met him once, and I had a very short conversation.

00:56:53.800 You'll remember that I competed with him directly for seven years because I did the radio factor.

00:56:59.400 So I don't know, you know, there was no real common ground between us.

00:57:04.760 My style is totally different than his style.

00:57:06.920 What I was appalled at and spent a lot of time on last night on the No Spin News is the vitriolic

00:57:17.740 hatred spewed about Rush Limbaugh on the day of his death.

00:57:23.420 So I did a search.

00:57:24.780 I had my staff, and I think I got one of the best staffs in the country.

00:57:27.840 I said, find out what happened when Ruth Bader Ginsburg died.

00:57:32.560 All right?

00:57:33.800 Find out how conservatives reacted on the day of her death.

00:57:37.160 We could only find one.

00:57:39.400 And it was an anti-abortion politician who attacked Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the day of her death.

00:57:44.300 One.

00:57:45.700 Conservative commentators didn't do it.

00:57:48.000 Radio, TV, newspapers, nobody did it.

00:57:51.180 So contrast that.

00:57:53.400 So Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a left-wing icon, people on the right, traditional people, certainly did not approve of her.

00:58:03.020 But when she died and in the days thereafter, they respected the process of her family and friends grieving.

00:58:11.500 That's what happened on the right.

00:58:13.660 On the left, you had – I've never seen such hatred.

00:58:19.300 I mean, I assume when I pass, I'll get that.

00:58:23.780 Well, you will from us.

00:58:25.580 Yeah.

00:58:26.120 Thanks, Beck.

00:58:26.740 I get that now.

00:58:27.780 I'm still breathing, and I get it.

00:58:29.440 But I actually had a conversation with my children.

00:58:32.760 I said, you know, when I pass, just – you've seen what happened.

00:58:36.140 You know, I keep them away from it as much as I can.

00:58:38.540 But I said, this is going to happen.

00:58:40.860 And that was far before Rush Limbaugh passed.

00:58:43.980 But anyway, I think for all Americans, they should sit down just and take maybe five minutes to think about the progressive left-wing culture in this country as opposed to the traditional right-wing culture and the behavior of both.

00:59:01.280 Now, that's not excusing excesses on the right, and certainly they have happened.

00:59:08.020 Mr. Limbaugh did things that I didn't think were correct, but I'm sure the converse is true as well.

00:59:15.500 I mean, when you do three hours of radio like you do every day and TV and radio like I did and three hours like Rush did on radio, you're going to make mistakes.

00:59:25.220 That's going to happen.

00:59:26.380 Yep.

00:59:26.480 Yeah, it's going to happen.

00:59:28.700 The thing about Limbaugh was he did a lot of satire, a lot of humor, and that was never translated by the far left into humor.

00:59:36.140 It was always, oh, he said this.

00:59:37.700 He did this.

00:59:38.740 Okay, yeah, this happened.

00:59:40.260 But he didn't really because he was mocking it.

00:59:43.420 He was making fun of it.

00:59:44.540 That was never differentiated.

00:59:46.780 But, I mean, I saw the Associated Press, Dispatch, Disgusting.

00:59:50.780 NBC News, Awful.

00:59:52.800 But here's something you don't know.

00:59:54.400 CNN and NBC executives, shortly after Rush Limbaugh died, issued orders to their people on television, their main people, do not attack Limbaugh.

01:00:07.280 Both organizations did that.

01:00:10.040 And on MSNBC, their main players in prime time did not mention the man at all.

01:00:16.420 Not his passing.

01:00:17.240 Nothing.

01:00:19.500 And the only person on MSNBC who did it was Joy Reid, who can do whatever she wants. 1.00

01:00:25.680 She's not going to listen to them.

01:00:27.160 No one on CNN, with the exception of Stelter, who is one of the most evil individuals I've ever seen.

01:00:33.840 And he did it in the context of a news story, cloaked it.

01:00:37.720 Right.

01:00:37.820 But no one on CNN ripped him up.

01:00:40.760 That was by direct order.

01:00:42.780 Because CNN and NBC both know that their news organizations are now suspect in the eyes of non-ideologues.

01:00:50.040 That people do not believe them.

01:00:52.560 And their ratings are cratering since Trump has left the scene.

01:00:56.080 I mean, they're down 50% in some cases.

01:00:58.840 And they know that they're in trouble.

01:01:03.000 So that order went out.

01:01:04.540 That has not been reported anywhere.

01:01:06.060 But because I know everybody, I know what happened.

01:01:10.580 On February 11th, 2021, Anthony Mason from CBS this morning said,

01:01:21.340 it's interesting on the passing of a celebrity.

01:01:23.940 It's interesting.

01:01:24.520 He opposed the death penalty.

01:01:25.720 He favored the same-sex marriage.

01:01:27.160 He spoke out against the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

01:01:30.060 Politically, he was very progressive.

01:01:31.840 He's not what you think he was going to be.

01:01:34.700 In fact, after finding some of his work as a 10-year-old, it changed my life forever.

01:01:42.780 That was the way they talked about Larry Flint, the publisher of Hustler magazine.

01:01:50.520 Yeah.

01:01:51.000 I had a question.

01:01:52.180 I was on a radio doing another interview.

01:01:54.120 And somebody said, oh, isn't Larry Flint the greatest guy and the freedom of speech and expression guy?

01:02:01.060 And I said, you're crazy.

01:02:02.780 I said, I just finished writing a book called Killing the Mob out May 4th.

01:02:07.700 Thank you very much.

01:02:08.400 And the damage and destruction in that industry that Larry Flint made his millions in to human beings is incalculable.

01:02:21.700 And I'm not going to go any further than that.

01:02:24.140 But to portray him as a hero when the damage that he did to people in that industry is no dispute.

01:02:35.760 You can't dispute it.

01:02:37.780 And you'll see it in Killing the Mob because they got right into that.

01:02:42.760 Whatever that is, organized crime is.

01:02:45.440 Can you tell me, give me one example of that?

01:02:50.060 Well, they exploit younger people who are emotionally disturbed.

01:02:55.240 And the purveyors of that will pay them a little money and then they'll debase themselves.

01:03:03.320 And then they have them forever.

01:03:06.200 I mean, that's what it is.

01:03:07.660 White slavery, black slavery. 0.99

01:03:09.240 That's what it is.

01:04:41.680 I mean, you heard Bill O'Reilly say it.

01:04:48.800 Andrew Cuomo is done.

01:04:49.900 Why not get your Andrew Cuomo is awful mug right now at andrewcuomoisawful.com.

01:04:54.380 And don't forget to subscribe to billoreilly.com.

01:04:57.420 More with him next.

01:04:58.000 Looks like 180 Democrats have supported forming the $12 million, 13-member Slavery Reparations Commission.

01:05:14.760 Bill O'Reilly here is to comment on it.

01:05:18.040 Bill.

01:05:18.640 Well, it's not going to happen.

01:05:19.900 I mean, you can, whenever a politician doesn't want to do anything, they go, we're going to do a commission or we're going to have a study and we're going to, you know.

01:05:28.620 So the problem with reparations is that you have a country that's going bankrupt.

01:05:35.160 Okay.

01:05:36.020 So we have $30 trillion debt here.

01:05:39.920 $30 trillion.

01:05:41.380 Now, Joe Biden and Donald Trump, neither of whom cared about that at all.

01:05:47.700 So they're looking short term and we're going to spend as much money as possible or put ourselves in a position to, you know, be reelected or be elected as the case may be.

01:05:56.960 So if you were to give reparations, you'd have to then send cash to 15% of the population.

01:06:07.360 All right.

01:06:07.640 So we're talking, what, 50 million people.

01:06:09.940 And you mentioned a Harvard study in the T's.

01:06:14.320 The study was that because African-Americans have poor environments, their homes and their neighborhoods and all of this, they're much more susceptible to getting COVID.

01:06:27.020 So the only way to stop that in the future is to give each African-American family $800,000 so they can buy their way out of the bad neighborhood. 0.86

01:06:37.720 So that's what the Harvard pinheads are suggesting.

01:06:40.840 So this is all unconstitutional, by the way.

01:06:45.400 It would never happen.

01:06:48.320 But, you know, the left is doing this to get the African-Americans to vote for them.

01:06:55.380 And that's been going on now for decades.

01:06:58.540 So aren't reparations really coming in different ways?

01:07:03.020 The COVID bailout, they're saying that they're not going to help, you know, white companies don't get the priority.

01:07:10.420 If you're a white businessman, you're not going to get the loan, et cetera, et cetera.

01:07:14.120 Isn't reparations is coming in?

01:07:16.880 Equity is reparations.

01:07:18.720 So you remember Joe Biden in his inaugural speech, we're going to do equity.

01:07:23.520 And equity means we're having certain groups get favorable status from the federal government.

01:07:29.860 And that just is a big rainbow arc.

01:07:33.720 So whatever it is, we're going to favor the marginalized groups.

01:07:39.080 And it's not a purely racial thing because gays are in that group and a bunch of other people.

01:07:44.740 So that is the equity play, okay?

01:07:48.620 So that, yeah, you can easily say, well, that's partial reparations.

01:07:53.800 But the progressive left wants to essentially bankrupt the United States.

01:07:58.100 And this is what people don't understand.

01:07:59.860 All right.

01:08:00.480 They want to drive up the debt so far that the U.S. dollar collapses.

01:08:07.360 And once it collapses, the economy collapses.

01:08:10.980 And we're back into the Great Depression of 1929, where they could wipe out capitalism and impose socialism,

01:08:17.840 which is essentially what FDR did to get back into a government that is, you know, making sure people don't starve to death.

01:08:27.040 That's what the far left wants.

01:08:28.560 It wants to collapse the entire capitalistic system.

01:08:32.180 And if you're going to pay $800,000 to each black family, you're going to bankrupt the system. 0.98

01:08:39.260 Yeah.

01:08:39.540 You'll collapse it.

01:08:40.500 Well, that is if these minorities can figure out how to use the Internet. 1.00

01:08:45.520 Listen to this from Joe Biden two days ago.

01:08:47.360 The other portion is a lot of people don't know how to register.

01:08:52.300 Not everybody in the community, in the Hispanic and the African-American community, particularly in rural areas that are distant and or inner city districts, know how to use, know how to get online to determine how to get in line for that.

01:09:10.780 So whether, you know, out in the out in the places outside of the city and those inside the city don't know how to get online.

01:09:21.280 That's one of the most racist things I've ever heard.

01:09:24.500 Yeah, I mean, I don't I'm not going to I'm not going to say that Biden was racist and saying it because there's some truth to it, but it encompasses white people to elderly white people in particular.

01:09:36.700 Uh, every race, um, people don't know, uh, how to, um, go through the Internet.

01:09:44.920 A lot of them.

01:09:46.100 It doesn't have anything to do with color, but the poorer you are, the less access.

01:09:51.340 Correct.

01:09:52.100 Correct.

01:09:52.540 But that's not what he said.

01:09:55.000 No, no.

01:09:55.520 Because Biden doesn't know what he's saying.

01:09:57.640 Right.

01:09:58.200 Okay.

01:09:58.500 No, I'm not saying it.

01:09:59.620 Listen, listen, this is absolutely true.

01:10:02.080 And everybody has to understand this.

01:10:04.240 When Joe Biden reads the teleprompter, he doesn't really understand what he's saying.

01:10:10.540 All right.

01:10:11.160 It isn't like he wrote it or he even edits it.

01:10:15.100 It's just given to him.

01:10:16.580 He looks it over and then he reads it.

01:10:19.400 What do you think it means that Kamala Harris has called many of the world leaders and not not Joe Biden?

01:10:27.820 It's perfectly logical.

01:10:29.980 Mr. Biden is napping.

01:10:32.100 He's napping.

01:10:33.460 All right.

01:10:33.840 So if he's napping and there's a call on the sheet, Kamala is up.

01:10:38.300 So she makes the call.

01:10:39.900 You know, by the way, I don't care.

01:10:42.700 I mean, if Kamala Harris wants to call a president of Albania, have a blast. 1.00

01:10:48.420 Doesn't matter to me at all.

01:10:50.500 But if people really think that Joe Biden's an active president, I mean, really, the land of Oz is beckoning.

01:10:57.540 Chuck Schumer came out and Chuck Schumer has flipped his position over Puerto Rican statehood.

01:11:05.380 Yes.

01:11:06.080 He's now in opposition to it.

01:11:09.420 Yeah.

01:11:10.560 What's that all about?

01:11:11.620 I think they overcharged him at the Doral Hotel in San Juan.

01:11:16.680 I think that's what happened, Chuck.

01:11:19.440 Seriously.

01:11:20.180 What happened to that?

01:11:21.480 I don't know.

01:11:22.480 I'll call him and I'll ask him.

01:11:23.880 I don't know.

01:11:24.880 I don't think the people of Puerto Rico really want to be a state.

01:11:28.860 Yeah.

01:11:29.040 They just voted.

01:11:30.240 No, but they voted last, what, November, I think, and it passed.

01:11:35.080 Barely.

01:11:35.660 That was the hurricane now.

01:11:37.280 That's why.

01:11:38.420 But now they, I don't know.

01:11:40.360 But anyway, I have to say, I don't know why Chuck has flipped.

01:11:44.060 I will find out.

01:11:44.980 But I wanted to tell you guys before I leave you and give me 30 seconds.

01:11:50.500 Yeah, I will.

01:11:50.920 But I'm not done yet.

01:11:52.000 I've got other things for you.

01:11:53.640 But I've got.

01:11:54.640 Yeah.

01:11:54.820 Yeah.

01:11:54.940 Whatever.

01:11:55.960 Yeah.

01:11:56.240 We'll, we'll say you're on the air and you won't be on the air and you'll just blab on

01:11:59.400 when we do something else.

01:12:00.880 Hang on.

01:12:01.400 Can we talk about Ted Cruz, please?

01:12:03.740 Could you let me run my show, please?

01:12:08.240 Nikki Haley just requested a meeting and Trump said no.

01:12:13.920 Right.

01:12:14.980 Uh, he doesn't like her.

01:12:16.860 He did.

01:12:18.060 Yeah.

01:12:18.500 He did, but he doesn't like her now.

01:12:21.080 No, he never liked her.

01:12:22.040 Never liked her.

01:12:23.020 No.

01:12:23.860 No.

01:12:24.300 Nikki's, you know, Nikki Haley, um, is a, um, let me, I'm, I know I'm going to get in

01:12:32.600 trouble here, uh, because, you know, I'm a misogynist, but Nikki Haley, who I respect.

01:12:38.900 I think she did a nice job at the unit at the UN.

01:12:42.120 Okay.

01:12:42.820 All right.

01:12:43.340 Um, but she's a, all right, strong-willed woman. 0.85

01:12:46.800 How about that?

01:12:47.620 All right.

01:12:48.060 I know somehow they'll twist it around.

01:12:50.300 Yeah.

01:12:50.660 Um, and, and basically, you know, she speaks her mind and, and at, at times, if you're speaking

01:12:56.660 your mind of Donald Trump and you tell him something he doesn't like, he's not really receptive

01:13:01.940 to that.

01:13:02.700 So I think she got on the wrong side of him because she said the election wasn't fixed.

01:13:06.980 Right.

01:13:07.580 Okay.

01:13:08.000 That's what happened.

01:13:09.060 Right.

01:13:09.240 So, uh, you know, look, if Nikki Haley, uh, wanted to meet with Donald Trump, there's a

01:13:16.240 reason.

01:13:16.880 And because Nikki Haley wants to run for president. 1.00

01:13:19.080 Right.

01:13:19.460 And wants Trump to be on her team.

01:13:21.880 Right.

01:13:22.140 Trump knows that.

01:13:23.340 So it's not like Trump isn't ever going to meet with her.

01:13:26.700 He will.

01:13:27.400 But he's going to let her dangle.

01:13:30.320 And that's what's going on there.

01:13:31.580 Okay.

01:13:31.840 So now let's go to, uh, Ted Cruz.

01:13:34.220 Yeah.

01:13:34.440 I was going to meet him in Cancun.

01:13:36.300 Did you guys know that?

01:13:37.600 No.

01:13:38.020 I have to tell you, I don't see anything wrong.

01:13:40.280 He took his family down.

01:13:42.620 I know.

01:13:43.400 I know.

01:13:43.840 The optics are terrible.

01:13:45.320 The optics.

01:13:45.860 No, wait.

01:13:46.220 The optics are terrible.

01:13:48.140 But he had nothing to do with anything in the state of.

01:13:53.100 Cruz should have been out shoveling snow.

01:13:55.840 I know.

01:13:56.560 I know.

01:13:57.440 He should have been shoveling people's driveway.

01:14:00.120 He didn't stay in Cancun.

01:14:01.820 He took his family there.

01:14:05.860 And the next morning he returned.

01:14:07.900 Wait.

01:14:08.300 You can go over Easter.

01:14:10.780 Okay.

01:14:11.860 Get the family.

01:14:13.040 Give them all shovels and shovel the people out. 0.99

01:14:15.780 What's the matter with you?

01:14:17.980 And by the way, I don't go to Mexico ever.

01:14:21.200 Ever.

01:14:22.260 Because that government in Mexico City won't cooperate with our government.

01:14:26.560 And taking out the cartels.

01:14:28.960 I'm not going down there.

01:14:30.940 That's not a good government in Mexico.

01:14:33.880 Are you hearing me, Ted Cruz?

01:14:35.940 But my God, you don't go on vacation when people are dying from the cold.

01:14:43.040 Can you just see him in the lounge chair on the beach, slathering up on the sidewalk?

01:14:47.420 He didn't do that.

01:14:49.360 He didn't do that.

01:14:50.560 Well, look, he probably would have done it.

01:14:52.000 Well, he couldn't do it because they nailed him.

01:14:53.400 Right.

01:14:53.800 He would have done it.

01:14:54.720 The big whale would have been on the beach.

01:14:56.940 He was supposed to stay until Saturday, reportedly at least.

01:15:00.020 But again, I can't think of a better time to go on vacation than when people are dying of cold.

01:15:04.540 That's what you do.

01:15:05.100 You get the hell out of the area.

01:15:06.120 You'll never be elected for anything, Stu.

01:15:08.240 And that's why it's bad, right, Bill?

01:15:09.580 Well, it's a political issue.

01:15:11.800 Right.

01:15:12.160 It's not bad.

01:15:13.380 It's just political.

01:15:14.560 I literally pitched the same thing to my wife on Friday.

01:15:17.400 I did, too.

01:15:17.920 I said, should we get the hell out of here?

01:15:19.280 Because this is going to be a disaster.

01:15:20.840 I did, too.

01:15:21.380 Why do you work hard?

01:15:22.680 I'm not the most powerful politician in the state.

01:15:24.700 Right.

01:15:24.940 And that's what I'm saying.

01:15:25.580 It's a political issue.

01:15:26.820 It's like you go to work every day and work your ass off and save your money so that you can remove your family from dangerous situations.

01:15:33.280 But not if you're a public servant.

01:15:35.460 Right.

01:15:35.920 Right.

01:15:36.220 And that's the difference.

01:15:36.700 Not if you're in charge of the federal application.

01:15:38.980 All right.

01:15:39.220 So put this into perspective.

01:15:41.240 Put this into perspective.

01:15:42.660 Is this Andrew Cuomo death?

01:15:46.760 Is this Gavin death?

01:15:49.500 What is this going to?

01:15:50.380 It hurts him bad.

01:15:52.500 He didn't win big last time.

01:15:55.420 All right?

01:15:55.800 Yeah.

01:15:56.100 This hurts him bad.

01:15:57.740 He can grow his beard as long as he wants.

01:16:01.060 Nobody's going to forget this.

01:16:02.320 It's so memorable, too.

01:16:03.540 And it's got the Chris Christie on the beach feel.

01:16:06.780 No, no.

01:16:07.500 This is the French laundry.

01:16:09.120 He's got the French laundry feel.

01:16:10.400 That's what this is.

01:16:10.680 But again, to be fair, and people have made this point, he's not telling people to not go on vacation.

01:16:16.340 Gavin Newsom was saying, don't go to a restaurant.

01:16:18.860 I agree.

01:16:19.380 And he went to the restaurant.

01:16:20.640 Come on.

01:16:21.360 The hypocrisy is different.

01:16:22.940 But he's not the governor.

01:16:24.620 Yeah.

01:16:24.780 He can't.

01:16:25.080 He's a United States Senate.

01:16:28.160 All right.

01:16:28.760 All right.

01:16:29.400 All right.

01:16:29.860 All right.

01:16:30.600 He should have started a Mr. Plow franchise like Homer Simpson.

01:16:33.580 I'm going to give you all the time I can give you.

01:16:36.560 When you hear it, it's like the Academy Awards.

01:16:38.460 When you hear the music, you've got to stop.

01:16:39.880 Go ahead.

01:16:40.320 Pitch whatever it is you were going to pitch.

01:16:41.800 All right.

01:16:42.360 Killing the Mob.

01:16:43.660 An exceptional book.

01:16:45.460 Beck has actually read it and liked it.

01:16:48.460 Oh, gee.

01:16:49.100 We're all out of time.

01:16:50.720 You can't.

01:16:53.180 All right.

01:16:53.760 Go ahead.

01:16:54.280 Go ahead.

01:16:54.600 If you order it on BillOReilly.com, pre-order it, we'll give you 50% off Killing Crazy Horse

01:16:59.480 and other book Beck Love.

01:17:00.960 That's it.

01:17:01.620 Can you get those things?

01:17:02.440 That's all I got.

01:17:02.860 Can you get them signed?

01:17:03.660 Go to Cancun.

01:17:04.520 Bill, can you get them signed?

01:17:05.640 Can you get the book signed or what?

01:17:07.580 You get it signed on BillOReilly.com, sure.

01:17:09.580 All right.

01:17:09.980 This thing is, you get two books for a really great price that you'll like.

01:17:14.660 That's what it's all about.

01:17:15.900 Very cool.

01:17:16.100 I've got to go to Cancun, you guys.

01:17:17.600 Thank you.

01:17:17.800 All right.

01:17:18.180 Come on, Bill.

01:17:20.300 Oh, man.

01:17:22.660 All right.

01:17:23.160 Let me tell you about REC Tech.

01:17:24.860 Oh, do you know that it is going to be 68 or 70 next week here in Texas?

01:17:30.520 Yeah.

01:17:30.840 We've gone from one.

01:17:32.400 Yeah.

01:17:33.260 One on what?

01:17:35.320 Tuesday.

01:17:35.940 It got to negative two.

01:17:36.780 It was the first lowest temperature since, I think, 1949 here in Texas.

01:17:40.000 And it's going to be 72 on Tuesday.

01:17:41.940 That is crazy.

01:17:44.240 Just crazy.

01:17:45.740 Well, good thing you have an indoor swimming pool.

01:17:47.240 Yeah.

01:17:48.420 Well, I have a rink now.

01:17:49.560 Yeah.

01:17:50.040 And then it turns into a swimming pool next week.

01:17:51.500 So I have a REC Tech that is just the best.

01:17:57.040 If you are looking for a grill, if you're looking for a smoker, if you're looking for

01:18:02.080 something that just you can bake in, you can grill on, it's everything.

01:18:07.400 It is built like a tank.

01:18:09.100 It has the high tech temperature controls.

01:18:13.020 You can control it from an app on your phone.

01:18:15.760 You can start it away from the house.

01:18:17.720 You can turn the heat up or whatever.

01:18:20.060 It informs you about everything that's going on inside.

01:18:23.500 I want you to A-B compare REC Tech with other grills.

01:18:27.200 You're going to thank me for it.

01:18:28.860 They don't sell them in stores, so they cut out the middleman and all of that extra money

01:18:33.160 they've put into the grill.

01:18:34.960 There's no comparison.

01:18:36.820 Follow REC Tech on social media.

01:18:38.380 Sign up for their newsletter.

01:18:39.780 Just A-B compare them.

01:18:41.180 REC Tech.

01:18:41.700 R-E-C-T-E-Q dot com. 1.00

01:18:44.880 That's REC Tech dot com.

01:18:47.140 Oh, my goodness.

01:18:52.360 I am so thankful that we have the UN to save us.

01:18:57.520 The UN has just come out with a new report yesterday talking about how we need to make

01:19:04.380 peace with nature because our children and their children will inherit a world of extreme

01:19:11.020 weather events, sea level rises, drastic loss of plants and animals, food and water insecurity,

01:19:17.140 and the future likelihood of future pandemics.

01:19:21.160 This is bad.

01:19:22.060 This is bad.

01:19:22.840 We are, I'm quoting, we are close to a point of no return, according to the United Nations.

01:19:33.200 They said that right now, Earth is on the way to an additional three and a half degrees

01:19:39.060 of warming, far more than, it's going to be a lot hotter than even the Paris Accord agreed

01:19:45.800 on about nine million people a year are going to die from pollution.

01:19:49.620 A million of Earth's eight million species and plants and animals are going to go extinct.

01:19:56.180 Up to 400 million tons of heavy metals, toxic sludge and industrial waste are dumping

01:20:02.660 the world's oceans every year.

01:20:04.400 Three billion people are now affected by the land that is degrading.

01:20:09.940 And only 15% of the Earth's wetlands remain intact.

01:20:14.960 About 60% of fish stocks are fished at maximum levels.

01:20:19.300 More than 400 oxygen-pleated dead zones and marine plastics pollution has tenfold, has grown

01:20:26.160 tenfold since 1980.

01:20:28.480 It is going to end with us.

01:20:31.620 The United Nations has come out and in this report, it uses the word must 56 times, should

01:20:40.740 37 times.

01:20:43.260 But the head of the climate for the climate chief for the UN said there should be a hundred

01:20:49.260 more musts in this document because we are literally out of time.

01:20:58.020 Wow.

01:20:58.900 Who knew?

01:20:59.580 Now, they're only asking for a few things.

01:21:03.720 I'm going to tell you what actions they are saying we must take.

01:21:11.240 And sure, they might be a little expensive or a little uncomfortable for some, but it's

01:21:19.620 not like they're asking to change everything in your life.

01:21:25.540 I hope you noted the sarcasm there.

01:21:27.640 I'll tell you about it coming up in just a second.

01:21:30.900 Stand by.

01:21:34.600 Let me tell you about our spotlight sponsor this half hour for the Blaze coverage.

01:22:20.760 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:22:46.340 In my opinion, there are very few people who see over the horizon and can see what's coming

01:23:02.720 and have been accurate and have led the way and been screaming from the gates, warning,

01:23:11.760 here come the barbarians. 0.91

01:23:13.140 There are also very few people who could admit that they were wrong at one point, or they

01:23:19.360 misunderstood, or they've just grown into a new understanding.

01:23:24.480 Somebody who said, there's the thought police coming our way 20 years ago and was so clear.

01:23:35.080 This author opened my eyes to all kinds of new thinking.

01:23:41.680 I am thrilled to introduce you to, again, you know this author, but have her on this program

01:23:49.260 in 60 seconds.

01:23:50.980 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:55.980 It is so critical right now that you keep your shoulders to the wheel here, and you push

01:24:03.520 the savings of money and financial choices into the wise direction.

01:24:08.980 I'm a big fan of American financing and all they do to help people.

01:24:13.780 I have been a fan of theirs since after the crash.

01:24:16.960 They tried to get me to be a spokesperson for them, and I said, no, I don't really trust banks

01:24:22.220 and mortgage companies right now.

01:24:24.400 I think this whole thing is a house of cards.

01:24:26.200 And they're like, yeah, I know.

01:24:27.120 We listen to you.

01:24:27.980 This is a family-owned and operated business.

01:24:30.320 They said, we listen to you.

01:24:31.380 We agree.

01:24:31.900 And I said, well, call me up after the crash, and let's see how your customers did.

01:24:36.900 Well, they weren't getting people into stupid loans.

01:24:40.060 That's why Stu has a loan with them now at about 2%, but didn't get a loan with them earlier

01:24:47.040 because-

01:24:47.960 Not sure why that would be important to bring up.

01:24:49.680 Because you were looking- I think you got your other loan from a guy in a sharkskin suit

01:24:55.360 that was like, hey, pal, I tell you what we're going to do here.

01:24:58.780 He worked with Andrew Cuomo, that's for sure.

01:25:00.980 Yeah, I think so.

01:25:02.920 They are going to help you set your course in the right direction.

01:25:06.660 That is by refinancing.

01:25:08.020 If you are paying more than 4%, 3% really, on your loan, you could be saving hundreds of

01:25:13.000 dollars a month.

01:25:13.640 You can roll all of your bills into one lump loan, put it into your mortgage, and that

01:25:21.920 will save you, could save you $1,000 a month or more.

01:25:25.720 It's American Financing.

01:25:26.960 Call them.

01:25:27.380 There's no tricks, no hidden fees or pressure.

01:25:31.680 It's American Financing.

01:25:33.100 800-906-2440.

01:25:35.200 800-906-2440.

01:25:36.840 American Financing.net.

01:25:38.940 American Financing.

01:25:39.820 NMLS 1-82334.

01:25:41.420 I am a big fan of Tammy Bruce.

01:26:01.080 She is a conservative, but that's not where she came from.

01:26:06.840 She made a change in her life and her thinking because she was the president of the L.A. 0.93

01:26:14.340 chapter of the National Organization of Women.

01:26:17.160 And when Clinton was going through what he was going through with Monica Lewinsky, she

01:26:22.140 thought that the organization should be consistent.

01:26:25.700 And, of course, it wasn't.

01:26:28.260 That was, I think, her first real awakening.

01:26:32.100 And she is now somebody who is an independent conservative, quite outspoken.

01:26:40.060 Yesterday or day before, she wrote a series of tweets, a tweet storm, on her meeting with

01:26:47.160 Rush Limbaugh back in the 90s when she was still a liberal, I believe.

01:26:52.840 Tammy Bruce joins us now.

01:26:54.000 Hi, Tammy.

01:26:55.360 Hi there.

01:26:56.320 It is great to be on with you, Glenn.

01:26:58.040 Thanks for having me.

01:26:58.940 You bet.

01:26:59.760 So, Tammy, let's go through first the Rush Limbaugh story that you told on Twitter.

01:27:05.620 I think it's fantastic.

01:27:06.820 Can you tell the story?

01:27:08.640 Yeah.

01:27:09.160 You know, I thought it was important because even though we knew he was ill, we expected

01:27:15.820 to some degree, of course, this eventually happening.

01:27:18.800 But still, it's hard when it does happen, even though you expect it.

01:27:23.600 And it was important.

01:27:25.360 I thought for me to convey, and a lot of people have great stories, have known him for decades.

01:27:30.860 But ultimately, it comes down to having meeting him that led to my ability to excise myself

01:27:39.700 from the left.

01:27:41.740 But it's also a very simple story.

01:27:44.180 It wasn't anything very complicated.

01:27:45.820 And I think it's very important to this day why and how that worked.

01:27:50.160 I was the weekend liberal host at KFI, a station you know well, and I think many Americans do.

01:27:58.020 And, of course, that was his syndicated station.

01:28:01.500 And he visited on occasion to do his show there, you know, as you do as a syndicated host,

01:28:07.280 checking out the stations that carry you.

01:28:09.760 And I went in there thinking, oh, you know, I'm going to go in during the week, and I'm

01:28:14.120 going to confront this monster with all, you know, he's not going to be able to escape.

01:28:20.040 And so I march on in there.

01:28:22.360 And instead of seeing a horrible person and being what I told he was, I met a generous,

01:28:31.240 gregarious, open-minded, funny, supportive man.

01:28:37.400 And it was not obviously what I expected.

01:28:41.600 And I realized in that moment, it's like, wow, I had been lied to about him.

01:28:49.240 And if I was lied to about him, what else have I been lied to about?

01:28:54.320 And he, it wasn't just like, you know, niceties when you meet someone.

01:29:00.200 I think he said when I first met him as being the president of L.A. Now there, he said, oh,

01:29:06.440 and so, you know, you're on the station and it's surviving.

01:29:09.300 And he laughed.

01:29:10.560 And I think there were a couple of feminazi jokes.

01:29:15.040 And, but in a manner where it was not, I mean, it was a joke.

01:29:22.100 And, but the interest in me was clear.

01:29:25.440 And he, he also gave me pointers about my work.

01:29:29.360 He talked about the, the nature of talk radio.

01:29:33.020 Um, uh, I, this, that was my first media job was at KFI starting in 1993.

01:29:38.560 Uh, and, uh, you know, trends, even though we disagreed on many things, uh, at that point,

01:29:44.240 uh, his interest was in how I would do my success, arguing about the issues,

01:29:51.340 uh, and, you know, it was a generosity of spirit that does not exist on the left.

01:29:57.060 And it was a revelation as was Glenn, uh, you know, just talking with conservatives every day,

01:30:03.920 callers, um, uh, uh, on radio.

01:30:07.320 And that, you know, the, the, my associates at the time did not want me to go on talk radio.

01:30:12.360 It was going to be the worst thing in the world, Glenn.

01:30:14.480 It was going to be horrible.

01:30:15.400 And, you know, you can't go on KFI.

01:30:18.060 That's where Dr.

01:30:18.980 Laura is.

01:30:19.720 And they've got Rush Limbaugh.

01:30:21.040 He's a monster.

01:30:22.080 And I thought, wow, you know, but what a great way to at least talk about the issues.

01:30:26.440 God forbid, right?

01:30:27.540 Yeah.

01:30:28.100 And how this is, but they were just adamant against it.

01:30:31.600 Now I know why.

01:30:32.840 Uh, it's because of the potential of these kinds of conversations.

01:30:37.040 It was the fact that people were talking at all, that I would actually, for the first

01:30:42.400 time, be speaking with conservatives, um, who were regular people.

01:30:47.300 It was the danger of the impact of debate and conversation and meeting people unlike yourself,

01:30:55.040 because that, if that happens, of course, then the left can't control what you think of

01:31:00.160 them.

01:31:00.280 Um, and, and that sort of, it was a combination of things within a short period of time where

01:31:08.060 I realized, and it took me a great, sometime more, a few years more, even, uh, because

01:31:13.360 this had been, you know, my, most of my life point of view was the realization, uh, and

01:31:19.980 again, Rush meeting him as such an icon and realizing the significance of him and the, and

01:31:26.940 his personal nature versus what we, I'd been told allowed me to first start to question

01:31:34.120 what I was being told then to be able to be safe saying, well, wait a minute, I don't

01:31:39.740 agree with that, or this is not correct.

01:31:42.140 And then ultimately leading to the point of resigning of deciding to not identify as a

01:31:49.960 liberal, uh, to decide that it was okay.

01:31:53.460 It would be safe, uh, and it was more important to be honest than, uh, trying to placate members

01:32:01.620 of a tribe.

01:32:02.740 And, uh, and you mentioned, I appreciate your introduction.

01:32:05.360 My very first book was, uh, I wanted to be able to not have my time on the left wasted.

01:32:12.020 I wanted to do what Rush Limbaugh does.

01:32:14.460 I wanted to, you know, at least inform people.

01:32:17.580 And that was my first book, the new thought police, which was what I saw, which was this,

01:32:23.360 this development of, of, uh, a, an effort to silence a major section of the American public

01:32:31.360 using threats and intimidation.

01:32:33.220 So Tammy, the, you know, I, I can, I can see threats coming and, you know, I called the

01:32:42.000 caliphate, I called the nine 11 thing in 1999 and said, blood body and buildings in the 1.00

01:32:47.520 streets.

01:32:47.960 Uh, and it'll have Osama bin Laden's name on it because I take people at their word when 1.00

01:32:54.440 they say they're going to do something horrific, you have to take them seriously.

01:33:00.020 And it usually works out to, you know, uh, uh, a legitimate warning system.

01:33:07.660 When do we start taking the left dead seriously about, uh, you know, reprogramming, deprogramming,

01:33:17.200 uh, you know, uh, basically brainwashing us, you know, into their line of thinking or some

01:33:24.780 sort of, you know, McCarthy committee on truth.

01:33:30.500 You know, it, it's almost because Americans, we, we are romantic.

01:33:35.880 We expect, uh, uh, people to do good things.

01:33:39.760 We have an opinion about our fellow Americans, which is an accurate opinion, uh, that we are

01:33:45.140 good people.

01:33:45.720 We want to be left alone.

01:33:47.120 We are still a very young country and it is, uh, uh, against our nature to expect or believe

01:33:54.660 why any other American would want to smash the system that we live in that brings so

01:34:00.460 much wonderful, incredible things to people, not just here, but around the world.

01:34:05.120 The, the, the, the saving of humanity, uh, of civilization, um, uh, certainly Western civilization.

01:34:12.400 And we're seeing, you know, if, if Eastern civilization can withstand what the Chinese 1.00

01:34:17.200 communist party is doing, but what Americans unfortunately are going to have to realize is

01:34:23.360 that the infection of Marxism and socialism, uh, it knows no boundaries like COVID, uh, it

01:34:30.720 doesn't stop at a border.

01:34:32.180 Uh, and that's what this is.

01:34:33.800 It's not about an American sensibility.

01:34:36.500 Uh, the, the, the mind is a fragile thing.

01:34:39.860 And we've now, we lost, uh, the education system, the moment, uh, even a little bit before,

01:34:46.320 but certainly when Jimmy Carter created the education department, the federalizing of our public

01:34:51.960 education system, that was the signal, uh, that, that was where they knew they needed

01:34:57.260 to be to, uh, uh, uh, convince brainwash, transform, uh, uh, generations of Americans.

01:35:04.540 And we've looked away because we, we, who would do that, right?

01:35:08.360 We couldn't believe it could be done, but it's happening.

01:35:11.260 And again, it's not a natural projection, uh, projection by the way, for any country.

01:35:15.960 Uh, but it is, uh, a human framework that we've allowed to take hold.

01:35:21.760 And the good news is Glenn, is that it's weak, is that it is, it is, does not have a foundation.

01:35:28.120 It wouldn't matter what your culture, what language you speak, where you're from, it doesn't 0.96

01:35:32.880 survive when confronted.

01:35:34.880 That's why ultimately they end up turning to violence in our country.

01:35:39.240 The good news is, uh, we can protect ourselves.

01:35:42.060 We are not in a position where, uh, it's, it's easy to do that as it was certainly in

01:35:48.040 a Soviet union in China, uh, and around the world where socialism and all of that has taken

01:35:53.880 place.

01:35:54.140 So I think it's about seeing these things really happen that they, that they're serious.

01:36:01.260 People like us reminding people, uh, uh, that you must believe them and that this can be

01:36:08.920 solved.

01:36:09.460 It's just a matter of confronting it.

01:36:11.440 Okay.

01:36:12.020 So I have to take a one minute network break and then come back for your answer on this

01:36:15.800 one.

01:36:16.180 Um, you know, it didn't seem plausible.

01:36:19.360 Uh, the military was against it.

01:36:21.980 The people who did the studies were against it.

01:36:24.840 The American people weren't for it, but FDR was convinced that the Japanese needed to be 1.00

01:36:31.300 rounded up.

01:36:32.020 He couldn't get it through until December 8th, 1941.

01:36:36.960 So it just takes an event and all of a sudden everybody's, Oh, it can't happen here.

01:36:42.020 It kind of goes out the window.

01:36:43.720 Uh, and I'd like to hear your response on that because we have event after event after

01:36:48.620 event.

01:36:48.940 And we have a group of people that know we can maximize those events and do things we

01:36:55.540 never thought possible back with Tammy Bruce in just a second.

01:36:59.540 Our sponsor, this half hour is car shield.

01:37:02.680 If you have one of those, uh, cars that are basically held together with, uh, duct tape and

01:37:08.320 bailing wire, that's a car I love to drive.

01:37:11.840 I love my trucks, um, because they are old and reliable and I want to drive them until

01:37:19.300 the doors fall off.

01:37:20.580 The problem is, is now with technology, you can't fix them yourself.

01:37:25.400 If a sensor goes wrong, like one of them did on one of my trucks, it was worth more than

01:37:30.800 my truck was.

01:37:31.820 So I would have had to total it and then go and buy a new truck and then have car payments

01:37:38.300 again.

01:37:38.920 I want my old truck.

01:37:41.180 That's why I have car shield car shield cars go further.

01:37:44.980 They have protected, uh, coverage.

01:37:47.940 So when something really nasty goes wrong with your car, you don't have to worry about it.

01:37:52.680 You have roadside assistance, you have a rental car while yours is in the shop.

01:37:56.500 It can go to the dealership or wherever you want to, uh, have it fixed.

01:38:00.180 And you don't have to worry about waiting for their check to arrive to reimburse you.

01:38:38.860 So Tammy, we are, we're dealing with people now that, uh, you know, they know what a crisis

01:38:47.060 is they've, uh, in some ways, I think that they, uh, celebrate them and, and try to create

01:38:53.440 some of them, uh, so they can do things that they could have done.

01:38:57.700 COVID is a great example.

01:38:59.660 Uh, why do you think that, uh, we wouldn't fall into a, some sort of a situation where it

01:39:09.780 would just seem reasonable that we just round up all of these conservatives that are just

01:39:15.000 blathering on and causing all this chaos?

01:39:18.760 Well, I, you know, it's, if you were to look at some other country, the implementation of

01:39:24.400 that you'd think could, uh, be easy.

01:39:26.880 Americans tend to be quiet people. 0.82

01:39:29.500 Um, uh, and yet, uh, we know that each time, uh, liberals seem to get a foothold and talk

01:39:35.660 like this, uh, gun sales explode.

01:39:38.780 Uh, Americans recognize that, uh, their personal safety matters and that we do know history

01:39:45.520 despite, uh, the efforts of the left to not teach it anymore.

01:39:48.300 Uh, and we have people like Rush Limbaugh yourself, uh, and, and mass communication now,

01:39:54.760 even though there's attempts to obviously stomp down on that.

01:39:58.920 The fact is, is that the American people, uh, uh, first of all, both Democrats and Republicans,

01:40:05.680 uh, would not allow that.

01:40:08.280 And, but mostly also it's about how decentralized we are.

01:40:12.880 Thank goodness as a country that you've got states like Florida and Ron DeSantis, and then

01:40:18.580 you've got the debacles of Cuomo and Newsom in California, New York.

01:40:22.700 Uh, you've got, uh, Christie Noem, you've got other leadership in states that provide examples

01:40:28.820 of what works and what doesn't, uh, and speak up and are, and are willing to step up and

01:40:35.640 say, no, I think the founders understood, uh, the importance of that, that if there was

01:40:40.960 one sweeping dynamic effort to clamp down on the American people, uh, that there was enough

01:40:48.120 of a decentralized framework, the constitution, the bill of rights itself, at least, even if

01:40:54.040 the government, uh, would overstep, uh, let's say the first and the second amendment, it 0.52

01:41:00.160 was, that would be at least the massive red flag about, all right, what is coming, what

01:41:05.880 our arguments could be and what people across the spectrum would not put up with.

01:41:10.760 So I, I, I don't doubt that they would try.

01:41:13.900 And that in fact, even when I was on the left, my seeing that they've been planning to try

01:41:20.780 to do this quietly, I have to say, uh, if Donald Trump never showed up and if COVID never showed

01:41:26.700 up, the trajectory would be exactly the same.

01:41:29.140 And you're right.

01:41:30.040 There would either be the creation of, of a crisis.

01:41:33.680 There would be, uh, the, the lies that we know the government's willing to lie and cheat.

01:41:38.040 We, you know, we saw that with the FBI, Donald Trump, and in so many other different ways.

01:41:41.900 Uh, but we, we, we need to be not cynical, uh, but, um, suspicious in a certain sense about

01:41:51.140 the government's activities.

01:41:52.400 We have to remember who we are as Americans, but also recognize, uh, that humanity and individuals

01:41:59.140 are being manipulated, uh, by, by groups, major groups that control education, uh, certainly

01:42:05.740 at least 85% of the media, uh, and, uh, the government, uh, as the bureaucracy, but that

01:42:12.700 it is, it's the individual that can make the huge difference.

01:42:15.800 We saw it with Trump.

01:42:17.160 Uh, we see it with other leaders that are emerging.

01:42:19.340 And of course, with the American people themselves, Tammy, I've, I've got about 90 seconds here.

01:42:23.980 I, I tried to do something with glad, uh, years ago when they were, when Iran was throwing 1.00

01:42:31.060 gays off of a building.

01:42:32.500 And I said, now is the time somebody like me joining with somebody like you and saying,

01:42:37.520 we don't agree on anything except you have a right to be who you are.

01:42:42.740 Stop throwing people off of buildings.

01:42:45.360 Uh, they would not do it.

01:42:47.660 They wouldn't, they wouldn't even, I met with them for an hour.

01:42:50.640 They wouldn't even consider it.

01:42:52.920 Uh, are there honest people on the other side that are, that are waking up that we can work

01:43:01.320 together with to save the nation?

01:43:04.420 I would say not in the massive organizations because already the commitment there is to

01:43:09.320 money and to power.

01:43:10.660 Uh, mostly with people who've made that kind of commitment, when character counts, they

01:43:15.860 choke.

01:43:16.340 Yeah.

01:43:16.880 And we should expect that where it comes to is like someone like me was not president of

01:43:21.280 the national.

01:43:21.960 Now I was president of a chapter, uh, in touch with the local community, dealing with things

01:43:27.980 at, at that framework.

01:43:29.240 It's those individuals who've always changed everything, uh, and if noticed what the larger

01:43:34.280 organizations are failing on and, and, and get tired of it, that's who will save the country.

01:43:40.100 Tammy Bruce.

01:43:40.880 Uh, you can follow her, uh, on Twitter at Hey, Tammy Bruce.

01:43:46.300 Uh, Tammy, thanks for being on the program.

01:43:48.440 Thanks for being honest and searching for the truth always.

01:43:54.540 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:43:57.060 I don't know about you, but at the end of the day, uh, it's, it's, it's, it's not uncommon

01:44:03.900 when everybody is, uh, you know, I gotta go just to put some Raycons and music in my ears.

01:44:09.340 And, uh, would that make me a bad dad?

01:44:12.000 And just try to get through it all.

01:44:13.900 Uh, Raycons, great quality, really comfortable.

01:44:19.240 Uh, I don't want, you know, these big white plastic, uh, AirPods that when I lay down and

01:44:26.260 I'm listening to a book on tape as I'm going to sleep or something that I'm, that it's really,

01:44:31.100 really uncomfortable.

01:44:33.160 Raycons are great noise, isolating, great, uh, sound, sweat resistance, uh, last for six 1.00

01:44:40.920 hours.

01:44:41.800 They're fantastic.

01:44:42.520 And half the price of, uh, Apple AirPods.

01:44:47.100 What are you doing?

01:45:24.920 Well, Biden's giving a speech now.

01:45:26.760 It says that we are going to, uh, re-engage with Europe like Donald Trump cut all of our

01:45:31.480 ties.

01:45:32.360 Um, I think what Donald Trump was doing over in Europe was fine.

01:45:36.820 Good with me.

01:45:37.660 You know, we don't need your treaties.

01:45:40.920 That's, that's fine.

01:45:42.060 We're just going to do our thing.

01:45:43.500 And, uh, by the way, if you want NATO to exist, I don't really know why it does right now,

01:45:48.600 but if you want it to exist, we're fine with that, but pay your share.

01:45:52.540 I think those are great things.

01:45:54.140 Oh no, those are horrible.

01:45:55.740 I for one believe we should be in all sorts of treaties on meaningless topics, right?

01:45:59.600 I want to make sure that we set ourselves into rules designed by the Europeans to control 1.00

01:46:06.000 our climate.

01:46:07.300 Um, and even though it won't actually make any difference whatsoever, even if fully

01:46:10.880 implemented, which it's not being, it is really good.

01:46:13.500 Cause there's a, there's a new thing out from the UN.

01:46:16.360 Oh really?

01:46:16.800 Yeah.

01:46:17.320 Yeah.

01:46:17.620 Yeah.

01:46:18.360 Uh, this is according to the associated press, humans are making earth a broken and increasingly

01:46:25.820 unlivable planet through climate change, biodiversity, and pollution.

01:46:32.000 Now, biodiversity loss.

01:46:34.800 So the world must make dramatic changes to society, economics, and daily life.

01:46:41.800 It's according to the United Nations.

01:46:44.420 Now the United Nations report, uh, when they line all this out, they say that, uh, this is

01:46:50.120 all going to be working through, uh, the United Nations, um, sustainability project, which

01:46:58.380 is the 2030 plan used to be agenda 21, uh, it's still going gang and it's going gangbusters.

01:47:07.280 All of this is in parallel with what we've been telling you about with the great reset, all

01:47:14.100 of it.

01:47:15.320 When the associated press asked leaders around the world, what they thought of this, the

01:47:22.000 AP said they were surprised how many said, oh yes, this is definitely going to happen.

01:47:29.460 Now the UN report, uh, tells that, you know, we're killing, we're going to kill an eighth

01:47:34.540 of all species of animals, uh, on the planet.

01:47:38.580 Uh, soon we're going to go up three and a half degrees in the next 100 years, which is

01:47:43.740 news to me.

01:47:44.620 Um, and, uh, and our oceans are all dying.

01:47:50.020 So we have to act right now.

01:47:51.820 And they say, this is the last call.

01:47:53.920 Now I thought we had the last call in like 2004, but no, no, no, this is, this one's the

01:47:58.880 one, this is the one we have no more time and we have to do all of it at once.

01:48:05.160 We can't just take it a piece at a time.

01:48:07.080 Of course not.

01:48:07.560 All of it has to be done.

01:48:09.040 It's too important.

01:48:09.640 Right.

01:48:10.000 Existential, existential threat.

01:48:11.260 So it is calling now for a change to how governments tax.

01:48:17.760 So now taxes are going to be decided on what is your impact on the climate and society?

01:48:26.760 Ah, gee, this sounds, I feel like I've heard a proposal like this recently, maybe tied to

01:48:33.200 the great reset.

01:48:34.300 Really?

01:48:34.680 Yeah.

01:48:34.880 Yeah.

01:48:35.200 It's interesting.

01:48:36.080 Well, here's, I mean, I think it's only fair that if, you know, you're, you are, uh,

01:48:41.140 hurting the planet that you pay more tax because I mean, you have to offset that carbon.

01:48:47.020 The, the earth is crying out, please offset the carbon, please pay money for the carbon.

01:48:54.480 And you know what?

01:48:55.120 Mother earth is a, she's a nag. 1.00

01:48:57.120 She is constantly whining, but also Stu, I mean, we have a right to talk, but are we,

01:49:06.280 are we really doing good or are we doing harm to social justice?

01:49:12.100 I hope there's someone who can judge that for us.

01:49:14.220 Well, there will be, and we'll get taxed on it. 0.64

01:49:16.760 So if you are not working for the good of the community as outlined by your government

01:49:24.540 and the global governments, uh, then you're going to have to pay a new tax.

01:49:29.960 Oh, good.

01:49:30.500 Um, also they are saying that we must change how nations value economic output.

01:49:37.220 So economic output, it's not your gross national product.

01:49:40.920 What is the product you're putting out?

01:49:42.660 Are you doing good for society?

01:49:46.700 Are you, are you, uh, finding equity and are you doing things that are good for the environment?

01:49:53.720 I've been hearing that a lot lately.

01:49:55.740 Um, there's a proposal about stakeholder capitalism, which also, by the way, is part of the great

01:50:00.700 reset.

01:50:01.660 Yeah.

01:50:01.860 Isn't that weird?

01:50:02.220 Which is strange.

01:50:02.940 I've been hearing this quite a bit.

01:50:04.340 Also, uh, how power is generated.

01:50:06.820 We're all going to have to understand that the green new deal, that's not what they're calling

01:50:11.400 it.

01:50:11.660 Just a green power must be implemented right now.

01:50:15.980 You know, you can really sell that to Texas at this moment.

01:50:18.980 They just are, they love that idea with windmills right now.

01:50:22.760 Yeah.

01:50:23.580 Um, so let me just, before I give you the rest of what they want to change, they're only

01:50:28.460 asking for a few things.

01:50:29.860 Okay.

01:50:30.580 And they're asking that this is our last chance.

01:50:33.360 We must do this right now.

01:50:35.780 So we have to change what governments tax, how nations value economic output, how power

01:50:43.920 is generated, the way people get around, the way people fish and farm, as well as what

01:50:52.940 they eat.

01:50:54.360 So basically all aspects of our society.

01:50:57.700 But you have freedom on every other place.

01:51:00.240 What was left after everything else?

01:51:04.380 Cause I mean, you already, you, you said all the energy.

01:51:07.380 So early any activity would be monitored under this policy.

01:51:10.560 Well, not your caloric.

01:51:11.800 Well, caloric.

01:51:12.380 Yes.

01:51:12.920 Caloric is also regulated food.

01:51:15.540 Uh, speech is going to be taxed if you're not really, you know, for social, uh, justice.

01:51:20.840 It seems like it seems like all you're describing here is a total.

01:51:24.920 All I am describing and stop taking it out of context.

01:51:28.900 All this is asking for is changing the way governments tax to include what is called ESG.

01:51:37.240 That's it.

01:51:37.960 What's just hit the ESG standards.

01:51:40.260 Well, ESG sounds like something good.

01:51:42.460 I mean, it's a standard.

01:51:43.840 EKG is good.

01:51:44.500 Right.

01:51:44.920 What's an E ESG?

01:51:46.980 Right.

01:51:47.560 It's, it's environmental, social and government.

01:51:52.280 So it's economic, or sorry, it's environmental justice, social justice, and the things that

01:51:58.900 government says you got to do too.

01:52:00.300 You sound like you're describing a reset of sorts.

01:52:04.700 And I would say a large one, a large reset, a big reset.

01:52:08.220 I don't know what you're talking about.

01:52:09.180 I'm only saying change the way governments tax.

01:52:13.340 Okay.

01:52:13.540 Make a stakeholder share where, where the, the business shareholders, but more like stakeholders.

01:52:20.380 That's more important.

01:52:20.920 You, you, you change the way they do business and they're going to want to do business like

01:52:25.260 this.

01:52:25.820 Um, how nations value economic output, how power is generated, the way people get around

01:52:31.480 fish farm and as well as what they eat.

01:52:33.920 What's the problem?

01:52:35.800 I mean, it's all the rest is for you.

01:52:38.220 It just sounds so good.

01:52:40.580 And it's so just arbitrarily tied to that large reset thing we've been talking about.

01:52:49.960 It is amazing that this stuff, you know, you, you were talking about this earlier about

01:52:55.080 how, uh, these things bubble under and people make up their minds and it's a small percentage

01:53:01.640 of people at first.

01:53:02.540 And then eventually an event happens and it pushes a lot of those people who hadn't put

01:53:07.320 a lot of thought into it over to the other side.

01:53:09.660 Cause they say, well, what are we going to do about this?

01:53:11.820 Right?

01:53:12.260 Like, what are we going to do about this problem?

01:53:14.220 We need more of X, Y, and Z.

01:53:16.040 You know, it's, it's what AOC is trying to do with this Texas situation.

01:53:18.820 Right?

01:53:19.140 The old, this just proves we need the green new deal, right?

01:53:21.920 Everything just proves whatever they want is what is needed.

01:53:25.260 And if you look at social media, you look at the, what the media is pushing, you hear

01:53:30.300 that you don't hear the pushback that this system in, uh, in Texas appears to be corrupt

01:53:38.440 and incompetent and they didn't weather strip anything. 0.61

01:53:45.180 Really?

01:53:45.700 Yeah.

01:53:46.300 I mean, cause it is more complicated than just windmills.

01:53:48.700 We keep on the windmills.

01:53:50.080 I mean, a lot, the bigger problem has been natural gas, but it's all tied to, to this

01:53:54.240 weatherization thing.

01:53:55.700 They didn't, they didn't do what they were supposed to do because of COVID.

01:54:00.160 They did.

01:54:00.840 They had virtual meetings, virtual weather stripping.

01:54:04.460 I love that.

01:54:05.380 Virtual.

01:54:05.940 Well, cause they do spot checks as part of the program.

01:54:08.060 Right.

01:54:08.460 And they were, they only went to like, I was at 16% of all of the places they were supposed

01:54:12.900 to go.

01:54:13.200 And when I say they went there, they went there via zoom.

01:54:16.080 They were just like, uh, okay, hold your phone up to the part where you weatherized.

01:54:22.100 Uh, it's, it was that bad.

01:54:24.240 And of course, you know, that, that causes a huge, huge problem that we're all paying

01:54:28.280 for now.

01:54:29.100 So it's not, I mean, it isn't as simple as just, you know, whining about windmills, though

01:54:33.640 that is a big part of it in Texas.

01:54:35.020 It's a big part of it.

01:54:35.940 Wind and solar have underperformed through this when Texans needed power most.

01:54:41.460 It's not a surprise, uh, but it was, it was bigger than that.

01:54:44.480 It's a giant failure and it always, as always ties back to the government.

01:54:48.000 And now you see what the government's doing, you know, some, uh, good politicians, some

01:54:52.760 bad politicians, all pointing figures at each other.

01:54:55.140 Well, look at this, uh, January 6th.

01:54:58.760 We're now, we, we now have serious people talking about truth commissions.

01:55:03.360 They are, uh, saying the Capitol police are saying they need the fence up around the Capitol

01:55:08.620 now until September.

01:55:09.800 Uh, they are now saying that the national guard, they're going to release them, but not all

01:55:15.620 of them.

01:55:15.980 There will be a contingent that stays there in Washington, DC all the time now.

01:55:21.140 And that's because of January 6th.

01:55:23.480 You don't think that if something big would happen, you don't think that they would put

01:55:29.960 draconian laws down.

01:55:31.980 And here's the problem.

01:55:33.680 These things are already agreed to by major corporations.

01:55:38.200 Yeah.

01:55:39.120 These major corporations are not freedom's friend.

01:55:43.720 You would think they would be.

01:55:45.500 Why would they want to do this?

01:55:47.680 Why would they possibly want more taxes and more regulation?

01:55:52.260 Because they're helping write it right now.

01:55:55.900 It's not going to hurt Coca-Cola.

01:55:58.360 It's going to hurt, you know, diet, right?

01:56:01.020 Or whatever one of those off brands are that are not sitting at the table making the regulations

01:56:06.960 now.

01:56:07.540 Yeah.

01:56:07.820 When the big corporations work with the government, they do their best to keep their competition

01:56:12.200 down, right?

01:56:12.840 As anyone would.

01:56:13.780 I mean, it's, it's very natural.

01:56:15.340 Uh, that doesn't make any sense.

01:56:16.760 Why would the company want more regulations?

01:56:18.760 What is Facebook running a campaign on right now?

01:56:22.700 They are actually running an advertising campaign saying, Washington, we want you to regulate us.

01:56:30.460 That doesn't make sense.

01:56:31.720 Does it unless, you know, you're going to be at the table writing the legislation and, you

01:56:38.340 know, for all the, you've been saying this for so long.

01:56:40.760 It's, you know, you've been on repeat since, you know, 2008 or something.

01:56:44.800 Thank you.

01:56:45.320 Uh, basically CD track for the Glenn Beck speech about don't, don't, don't essentially don't

01:56:52.440 give them an excuse.

01:56:53.940 Look, I mean, look, January 6th, there was much more death, much more violence in the

01:56:59.960 Black Lives Matter rallies, much more property damage.

01:57:03.060 All of that is completely true.

01:57:07.300 However, you give them one excuse and it was a big one.

01:57:10.800 I mean, January 6th was really, really bad.

01:57:12.720 It was bad.

01:57:13.140 But for the people who have been arguing, oh, we just need to burn this down.

01:57:15.940 We need to fight.

01:57:16.700 We need to stop listening.

01:57:17.840 We need to, we need to break the rules.

01:57:19.260 We need to do all these things.

01:57:20.740 Look at what has come out of just that one day.

01:57:24.080 I mean, you're talking about a permanent, a national guard contingency in Washington, DC.

01:57:31.360 They're talking about permanent fencing around the houses where our representatives work and

01:57:37.800 truth commissions and terrorist warnings and justifications down of the Pentagon to weed

01:57:46.160 out Trump supporters and a justification for every little dumb thing they've been trying

01:57:50.880 to push through for the past decade.

01:57:52.620 And they got it done because a few hundred people one day did something awful.

01:57:57.180 I mean, it's, it's, and some of the people were in there like, you know, who knows?

01:58:01.960 You know, I mean, some of the people were outside and didn't do, there was no violence

01:58:05.080 by a lot of the people who were there and thousands and thousands of people were there and didn't

01:58:08.980 even know any of this happened.

01:58:10.320 But it doesn't matter.

01:58:11.320 You can't give them an excuse.

01:58:13.180 If you haven't read the Overton window, my novel, the Overton window and the eye of Moloch,

01:58:20.200 it's happening right now.

01:58:22.900 It's happening right now.

01:58:25.140 Read those novels.

01:58:26.360 I read, I wrote them so they could write.

01:58:28.920 Jeez.

01:58:29.380 Thinking back at the plot plot.

01:58:30.760 Yeah.

01:58:31.120 Think about the last part of the Overton window and the beginning of the eye of Moloch.

01:58:37.040 It's happening right now.

01:58:39.920 Read those books.

01:58:41.180 You can find them on Amazon.

01:58:43.220 All right.

01:58:43.440 Let me take a quick break.

01:58:44.780 Tell you a little bit about Rough Greens.

01:58:47.980 I've been talking about Rough Greens for almost a year now.

01:58:50.600 Isn't that crazy?

01:58:52.060 Really?

01:58:52.640 Yeah.

01:58:52.960 Almost a year.

01:58:54.340 But let me remind you that I think it was Fat Tuesday was the big last hurrah before we

01:59:00.400 all went into lockdown with COVID.

01:59:02.160 It's been almost, it's almost been, you know, 15 years just to flatten the curve.

01:59:07.060 That's all we need is 15 years to flatten the curve.

01:59:09.860 Anyway, my dog is a different dog a year later, a different dog.

01:59:14.120 And I still see changes in him.

01:59:17.000 He used to be a picky eater.

01:59:18.600 That was the first thing that happened.

01:59:20.240 That went away.

01:59:21.160 He runs for his food bowl every time now.

01:59:24.880 Now, if you think to yourself, I don't want to buy a whole bag because what if my dog doesn't

01:59:29.500 eat, you know, doesn't like it?

01:59:31.280 Well, what am I going to do?

01:59:33.760 Talk to Dr. Dennis Black.

01:59:35.120 He's the inventor of Rough Greens.

01:59:36.560 He understands the concern.

01:59:37.800 He decided to help you find out if your dog likes the product before you purchase anything.

01:59:42.140 By the way, your dog's going to probably love it.

01:59:45.380 You'll get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog to try out.

01:59:49.360 All you pay is for the shipping.

01:59:51.100 You pay for the shipping.

01:59:52.380 They will send you a free bag of Rough Greens to make sure that your dog likes it.

01:59:56.660 If your dog likes it, then buy the bags of Rough Greens once a month and you are going

02:00:02.820 to see a tremendous difference.

02:00:04.900 It's not a dog food.

02:00:05.860 It's a supplement, Rough Greens, 1-833-GLENN, G-L-E-N-N, 33.

02:00:12.220 That's 833-GLENN, 33. 0.52

02:00:14.360 Or you can go online, roughgreens.com slash Beck.

02:00:21.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

02:00:24.120 Just on what we were just talking about, I look up over to CNBC and they're doing an interview

02:00:28.780 on diversity and corporate leadership and how companies need to be held accountable for

02:00:33.400 social justice and diversity.

02:00:35.040 I was just reading about that.

02:00:36.340 Yeah.

02:00:36.620 Yeah.

02:00:36.940 It was this kind of like grandiose reset.

02:00:40.560 Really?

02:00:41.100 Yeah.

02:00:41.140 It was involved in that.

02:00:42.440 Probably great reset.

02:00:43.320 Was that it?

02:00:43.760 You can read about it at the World Economic Forum.

02:00:46.160 It's coming.

02:00:48.080 Warning.

02:00:48.760 It's coming.

02:00:49.820 It seems like it's here.

02:00:50.900 Yeah.

02:00:51.260 A little bit more than it's coming.

02:00:52.460 Yeah.

02:00:52.800 And I think one of the reasons why Bitcoin is doing so well is because people know massive

02:00:59.320 changes are about to happen and the dollar is not going to make it.

02:01:03.460 We got on the air today and it was 51,000 of Bitcoin.

02:01:06.340 It's 54?

02:01:07.500 54,550 as we talk about it now.

02:01:10.420 Remember, in March, it was 4,000.

02:01:13.700 In March.

02:01:14.480 In March of 2020.

02:01:16.460 Less than a year ago.

02:01:17.320 It was 4,000.

02:01:17.620 If you don't have at least $100 in Bitcoin, you're missing out.

02:01:23.820 You're missing out.

02:01:24.860 You've missed out on quite a bit.

02:01:26.120 You've missed out on quite a bit.

02:01:27.080 I don't see why you wouldn't.

02:01:28.500 I mean, at least a little bit.

02:01:29.460 At this point, it's part of reality.

02:01:31.460 If it becomes the world reserve currency, which we are a long way, that's wild speculation.

02:01:37.540 But in five years from now, if that's the world currency, you're looking at a million

02:01:46.080 dollars of Bitcoin.

02:01:47.700 Yeah.

02:01:47.940 Now, that's wild speculation.

02:01:50.220 It's wild speculation.

02:01:51.080 But I will say, when people were on saying, it's going to be 50,000, I was like, that's

02:01:55.520 wild speculation.

02:01:56.940 It's on its way to 60.

02:01:58.380 It's incredible.

02:01:59.380 It is incredible.

02:02:00.900 Nothing like this in our lifetime.

02:02:03.380 This is like the invention of the light bulb, and you've bought into Edison, which became

02:02:08.540 GE.

02:02:10.440 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
