The Glenn Beck Program - Recap of 2022 & Predictions For 2023 ｜ Guest Host： Justin Barclay ｜ 12⧸29⧸22

00:00:00.000 We've got no room to compromise

00:00:22.080 We've got to stand together

00:00:26.180 It's the chorus of life

00:00:30.000 Stand up straight and hold the line

00:00:33.580 It's a new day, I'm time to rise

00:00:39.480 What you are about to hear

00:00:43.880 is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:00:47.940 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:51.900 Wow! Merry Christmas!

00:00:55.760 Am I still allowed to say that?

00:00:57.260 I think I can say that.

00:00:58.240 And, Happy New Year?

00:01:01.480 Or is it too early for that yet?

00:01:02.900 Well, listen, either way, welcome in.

00:01:05.000 It's the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:06.100 In today for Glenn.

00:01:07.720 My name's Justin Barkley.

00:01:09.020 We've got a big show.

00:01:09.740 Big arrests last night.

00:01:11.080 Lots of conversations.

00:01:13.080 Big stories you want to talk about.

00:01:15.160 Usually this time of year it's kind of slow.

00:01:17.580 But not now.

00:01:18.520 It's like drinking from a fire hose.

00:01:20.820 We'll get into it all.

00:01:22.160 Big guests today on the show as well.

00:01:24.060 Plus, I want to hear from you.

00:01:25.260 We appreciate you being here with us.

00:01:27.660 888-727-BECK is the number.

00:01:30.920 It's 888-727-BECK.

00:01:33.800 Back after this on the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:36.040 It's Justin in for Glenn today on the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:57.620 You know, like I said, this is strange because it's normally the holiday season.

00:02:04.300 And you get guys like me and some of the other great guests, the fill-ins here, who come in while Glenn has a well-deserved time off.

00:02:13.540 Gets well-rested so he can be back and ready for the new year.

00:02:17.980 You know, there's a lot that goes into doing this radio program and all the things that Glenn does for us.

00:02:22.200 But, you know, one of the things that generally this time of year is kind of slow in the news.

00:02:29.540 You know, that's why you hear all this.

00:02:31.220 Well, it's the word of the year.

00:02:32.680 And here are the top stories of 2022.

00:02:35.800 And, you know, and so you get a little bit of that.

00:02:37.820 Maybe we'll do a little bit of that today, too, just to do it.

00:02:40.040 But these days, you don't get the break that you used to get from news at all.

00:02:48.060 We don't get the break from anything.

00:02:50.960 I don't know if it's this cycle, just the way things work because we got social media and nothing really slows down.

00:02:57.880 But there are constantly stories swirling.

00:03:02.040 There's a constant state of chaos that we seem to live in.

00:03:05.860 And the news doesn't take a break.

00:03:12.120 And so that's why we're here.

00:03:13.800 And we're glad that you're here, too.

00:03:15.440 I'm going to give you the number, 888-727-BECK.

00:03:18.720 You want to talk about anything today and join the program, we'd love to have you here.

00:03:22.600 But one other thing that I'd like to hear as we get into some of the bigger stories of the day today and discuss what is top of mind here.

00:03:36.340 I want to hear from you two things.

00:03:40.120 Number one, I want to hear from you.

00:03:42.540 What do you think the biggest story of the year was?

00:03:45.480 Now, this is going to be hard.

00:03:47.580 I've been thinking about what might be in that rotation.

00:03:51.960 I've been thinking about what could possibly be, you know, in that lineup.

00:03:58.580 And there's a few of them, especially the stories lately, what we've learned from Twitter and the Twitter files, Elon Musk, what's been happening with the government behind the scenes.

00:04:08.360 These are all things that we've, you know, a long time, pretty much, yeah, we pretty much, it's like we've, well, we suspected some of this stuff, right?

00:04:20.840 We knew the whole time.

00:04:23.260 We just, we just, now we have, we have, well, confirmation, I guess you might say.

00:04:33.020 A little bit of confirmation.

00:04:34.220 So, I, that might be one of, but what, wait a minute, what about the border?

00:04:41.720 What about what's happening at the border?

00:04:43.640 I mean, what's happening down there is absolutely transforming this country.

00:04:47.360 And it's disaster for folks who are living right there, but not just for folks living on the border cities.

00:04:54.700 It's disaster in the lives of many when you see the fentanyl coming across the border.

00:05:01.020 The trafficking, drugs, humans, all of it.

00:05:04.780 I mean, you got another major story there that, I mean, I don't know if we can wrap our heads around all of it.

00:05:11.680 There's just so much to choose from when you look at some of the bigger issues that are swirling from the last year.

00:05:22.540 What, is it the midterms?

00:05:23.700 We didn't see the red wave that we felt like it was more like a red trickle.

00:05:26.700 Although the Republicans are taking back the House.

00:05:31.160 Now, what they do there, that's a whole nother, that's a whole nother thing altogether, isn't it?

00:05:40.520 What they do there, that's, well, that remains to be seen.

00:05:46.240 But you have, you have all of these different stories.

00:05:50.540 And in your situation, and in your life, maybe there's a story, maybe there's something that's bigger for you than it is anywhere else for anybody else.

00:06:02.120 And your personal story, you know, the things that are happening in your life, maybe they're different.

00:06:07.280 We had a little girl that was born.

00:06:10.940 It's about two months back now.

00:06:14.300 That's probably our big story for the year in our family.

00:06:17.240 But I really, I'm serious.

00:06:18.400 I wonder what you think, if you had to put your finger on it, the biggest story of 2022 is, and is it a story that just isn't getting the coverage that it deserves?

00:06:37.940 Maybe it's good news.

00:06:40.440 In fact, I've got one of those coming up this hour that I'm going to share with you.

00:06:43.700 I think some good news that we need to hear some things behind the scenes.

00:06:46.400 People fighting back.

00:06:50.260 Taking a stand.

00:06:51.420 You often hear that stand up.

00:06:52.920 What does that mean?

00:06:53.800 Well, our guest coming up a little later this hour will be able to put his finger on it, tell you what exactly what it meant for him, what he put on the line, and how it's paid off.

00:07:03.960 Sometimes it doesn't always work out that way.

00:07:06.620 But this is good news.

00:07:07.580 I want to share it with you because I believe that story itself, that's a story that deserves a spotlight.

00:07:19.840 Of course, we'll get into that.

00:07:22.280 But I'm really curious what you think the biggest story of the year is.

00:07:25.900 You can tweet me at Mr. Justin Barclay.

00:07:28.320 That's over on Twitter.

00:07:29.300 In fact, you can connect with me everywhere.

00:07:31.660 Justin Barclay.

00:07:32.700 B-A-R-C-L-A-Y.com. 1.00

00:07:35.180 JustinBarclay.com.

00:07:37.320 And also at 888-727-BECK.

00:07:41.260 B-E-C-K. 1.00

00:07:44.120 Let me know what you think the biggest story of the year was.

00:07:47.420 I've got some coming in right now.

00:07:49.280 And there are a few here.

00:07:50.300 There's a couple that I hadn't even.

00:07:53.000 Of course, I'm aware of these, but it just didn't come pop up top of mind for me right now.

00:07:58.260 Some of these, I think you might agree with.

00:08:00.800 Biggest story of the year.

00:08:03.440 And gosh, it may not be anything that's been covered on the nightly news or in your local paper.

00:08:13.180 We'll talk about that.

00:08:14.200 Big one last night, in fact.

00:08:17.060 I don't know if you know who Andrew Tate is.

00:08:21.940 Andrew Tate.

00:08:22.880 It's interesting because I don't know much about the guy.

00:08:26.040 I kind of know surface level things about him.

00:08:28.460 He is a UFC fighter or a former UFC fighter.

00:08:32.880 I'm not exactly sure.

00:08:33.820 He's got a lot of different things that he does, apparently, business and whatnot.

00:08:37.860 But he's mostly well known on the internet for saying things that people, well, you're not supposed to say anyway.

00:08:46.320 He's sort of, and he's been canceled.

00:08:48.180 And I don't agree with everything he says.

00:08:51.400 Of course, I don't know why we even have to say that because I don't agree with everything that anyone says.

00:08:55.840 Even some of my best friends and family.

00:08:57.660 Of course, I don't agree with every, sometimes I don't agree with everything that I say.

00:09:02.780 I have to think about it.

00:09:04.540 I, you know, I, I, I get a little time between what I said and I go, wait a little, think back about it.

00:09:09.200 And I go, you know, maybe a little, little reflection, some prayer, maybe the Lord's working.

00:09:14.800 And then I go, wait, wait a minute.

00:09:15.780 Maybe I, maybe that wasn't right.

00:09:19.800 But it's funny.

00:09:20.700 You have to say that these days.

00:09:21.880 I don't agree with everything.

00:09:23.360 This person.

00:09:23.940 So, of course, I don't agree with everything.

00:09:25.860 But at the end of the day, very interesting, controversial figure, they say, arrested last night.

00:09:33.440 Human trafficking charges in Romania.

00:09:36.180 But there's a little bit more to this story.

00:09:40.460 We'll discuss this coming up in just a moment.

00:09:43.240 In fact, somehow, after being arrested, he ended up on Tucker.

00:09:47.220 Or talking with Tucker.

00:09:48.440 And it's, it's a, just a wild story, but it's one that, true to form, to close out the year may be the best way to do it.

00:10:01.740 I, I, I, I'm just not sure.

00:10:04.700 888-727-BECK, B-E-C-K is the number.

00:10:07.740 888-727-B-E-C-K.

00:11:33.440 all the social media.

00:11:34.960 Apparently, he was arrested last night.

00:11:37.520 Get into that coming up here in a second.

00:11:39.400 Your biggest story of 2022.

00:11:41.200 Maybe we're, you know, we're not even giving it the coverage it deserves.

00:11:45.220 Want to hear from you on that.

00:11:46.860 888-727-BECK.

00:11:48.400 B-E-C-K. 1.00

00:11:49.260 It's Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck program.

00:11:51.760 You can also tweet me on the newly freed bird at Mr. Justin Barkley.

00:11:57.760 There are nearly everywhere else on social media that we could find.

00:12:01.200 Um, so you can also connect with me at, uh, Justin Barkley.com.

00:12:12.480 Great place, uh, to do that.

00:12:15.480 All those different places.

00:12:16.480 So I want to ask, cause there's some other really good stories in here about what may

00:12:20.900 be the big story of the year.

00:12:25.640 There's some really good ones.

00:12:27.500 There's some really good ones in here.

00:12:29.200 In fact, uh, the power grid, this is one Ladina mentions, the power grid being attacked.

00:12:35.540 Boy, that's a big story, folks.

00:12:38.960 The power grid being attacked.

00:12:40.840 And there's not really a lot of talk about that.

00:12:45.200 That along with the fires and some of the things we've had, some of the food processing

00:12:49.140 plants, that, that could be a major interruption or disruption.

00:12:54.340 Could be some probing for, for bigger attacks yet to come.

00:13:00.100 And yet we don't, they're more concerned.

00:13:02.320 It seems like anyway, I don't know.

00:13:05.400 It seems that the powers that be are more concerned about parents speaking up at school

00:13:09.440 board meetings for, you know, the sexualization of their kids and the things that are happening.

00:13:14.320 They're more, more concerned about that than they are anything else.

00:13:17.560 So you want to go talk to those folks, we, maybe they're looking into it.

00:13:23.820 I don't know.

00:13:24.300 I don't know.

00:13:25.900 Extremist.

00:13:26.340 I don't know.

00:13:26.820 Maybe it's, I don't think it's the parents at the school board meetings that are involved

00:13:30.100 in the power grids.

00:13:31.640 That probably not, not the story.

00:13:36.780 It's, it's, I think it's a big one.

00:13:43.140 Yeah.

00:13:43.580 Gas prices.

00:13:44.500 That's another way.

00:13:45.060 It's fuel, energy, all of it.

00:13:47.060 Folks stuck in there.

00:13:48.000 See that spoke sucking their Tesla the other day. 0.99

00:13:50.760 I was trying to get home for, for Christmas Eve.

00:13:53.160 A guy got stuck in his Tesla.

00:13:54.500 Wouldn't charge.

00:13:55.680 It was too cold.

00:13:57.100 Big story for Democrats.

00:13:59.960 And I don't know what this to me seems more like a fizzle, but I think the, the Democrat

00:14:04.980 led house for now, anyway, releasing Trump's tax returns, which I've kind of just glanced

00:14:10.140 over and seems to be much ado about nothing.

00:14:13.360 Those coming out this morning.

00:14:15.200 So they'll, they'll be talking about that.

00:14:17.060 That'll be the big story for them today.

00:14:19.040 Oh, we got, finally got them.

00:14:20.780 We finally got them.

00:14:26.540 Let me try.

00:14:27.720 Well, we finally get every time, every time you hear it.

00:14:30.180 So finally, we finally got him.

00:14:31.860 They finally got him now.

00:14:33.740 So last night, Andrew Tate, speaking of, uh, getting him, I don't know why this has become

00:14:40.080 such an interesting story, but, um, there's, there was so much last night on Twitter and

00:14:46.240 the internet about this, the possible arrest.

00:14:48.480 And of course they showed video of him and his brother being taken.

00:14:53.340 There was media there out of their house, but they didn't have handcuffs on.

00:14:57.700 So if they were allegedly arrested for, you know, trafficking and there was a allegation of a rape or somebody being held inside a house, you know, without their, well, this, this could happen to anybody.

00:15:15.100 Yeah, I know it's a, especially somebody so high profile.

00:15:22.380 And he just had some crazy exchange with Grada Thunberg on, uh, on Twitter.

00:15:28.200 Apparently, I guess it was that day or the day before.

00:15:31.020 And, uh, that was a big, so that was a big part of the speculation about wonder why this happened.

00:15:37.660 But then again, last night, it appears this was last night, Tucker Carlson today, Tucker Carlson talking to Andrew Tate, who is not in jail.

00:15:47.740 Oh, this is an August interview.

00:15:51.580 Just take a listen to this.

00:15:52.800 This is something that happened to him previously.

00:15:54.680 Apparently take a listen and see.

00:15:56.500 This is the, uh, Tucker Carlson tonight interview.

00:15:59.760 Apparently that was done about some of these things that have happened to him before.

00:16:04.060 So is, is he in jail or not?

00:16:06.960 And what's the story?

00:16:07.820 We're still waiting to hear.

00:16:08.640 So news accounts in the United States say that the U.S. Embassy in Bucharest, Romania, was tipped off to your misdeeds and alerted the local authorities you might be committing human trafficking, um, given that this is the same charge they leveled against Julian Assange or a species of it.

00:16:27.980 You know, skeptical, but I want to know the details.

00:16:30.400 Were you arrested for human trafficking?

00:16:32.440 What happened?

00:16:34.080 Yeah, I was not arrested.

00:16:35.380 So what happened is I suffered from a case of swatting.

00:16:38.100 It's very popular with people who are large on the Internet.

00:16:40.740 Many large YouTubers have been swatted.

00:16:42.900 It's where you call the police and you say somebody has a gun or there's a hostage situation and the SWAT team arrives.

00:16:48.520 Somebody made a phone call to the American embassy saying that I was holding women at my house.

00:16:52.380 Now, this is previous.

00:16:54.920 Then I know that there's a further investigation.

00:16:58.060 The police arrived.

00:16:59.260 And let me state this now.

00:17:00.580 I state this, uh, openly to the world.

00:17:03.440 I have absolute respect for the police.

00:17:05.200 I would hate to live in a country where if you call the police saying women are being held against their will, that the police don't respond.

00:17:11.620 That would be terrible.

00:17:12.600 Of course they should come and look.

00:17:13.920 Absolutely.

00:17:14.760 They turned up.

00:17:16.060 They investigated.

00:17:17.040 They realized that nobody was in the house against their will.

00:17:19.760 There was no crime committed.

00:17:21.020 They said, okay, you're not a suspect, but you are a witness to this along with me, my brother, the housekeeper, uh, the gardener.

00:17:28.920 Everybody who was in the premises at the time was labeled a witness.

00:17:32.040 We had to go to the police station for 45 minutes for pieces of paper.

00:17:35.360 We filled them in and we were let go.

00:17:37.260 I was swatted.

00:17:38.400 Nobody was hurt.

00:17:39.960 There's no human trafficking.

00:17:41.320 Now that, that, that, that was back in August.

00:17:44.140 So again, if he's guilty of that, him and his brother or whatever, anybody who's guilty of human trafficking, any sort of that, uh, of course I want to see them locked up and, and probably worse, but there's a lot of question about this.

00:17:58.420 And in fact, Tucker mentioned his skepticism back in, uh, August, I guess, in the interview that he had done there, the questions continue to come out.

00:18:09.100 People are asking, well, you know, what, what exactly happened?

00:18:13.380 Why now?

00:18:15.280 What a peculiar story and what a way to end again, the year, which has been so strange, you know, just, just, just, just aim a few of the crazy things that have, that have happened this year.

00:18:29.440 Oh, by the way, you know, we were going through these and I've, I've got more.

00:18:32.420 We'll go through them today throughout the show.

00:18:35.020 Plus I want to, uh, I want to take your predictions.

00:18:38.760 So I got, I'm kind of, I got two things that I want from you today that I'd love to hear you join the program.

00:18:46.280 If you're a triple eight, seven, two, seven B E C K back. 0.97

00:18:51.140 Not only would I like to know the biggest story, but also what about a prediction as hard as it might be?

00:18:56.920 What about a prediction?

00:18:58.000 Cause we've seen what we've seen, but what about a prediction for the new year?

00:19:01.400 Let's go to Michael in Florida, biggest story of the year, Michael, whether it's being covered or not, welcome.

00:19:08.860 You're on the Glenn Beck program.

00:19:10.620 Hey, good morning.

00:19:11.360 Thanks for taking my call.

00:19:13.700 My pleasure.

00:19:15.420 Okay.

00:19:16.000 So, um, you know, I feel like, uh, biggest story of the year is that people are finally waking up to the fact that we've been presented with a meticulously managed psychological operation.

00:19:30.340 To convince us all that everything has failed in an effort to bring new systems to our world.

00:19:39.980 I think people are red, blue, Democrat, Republic, Republican doesn't make a difference.

00:19:46.060 Folks are waking up to the fact that due to staged events promoted by corrupt media, we are now, uh, being divided and demoralized in an effort to have us willfully adopt technocratic Marxism.

00:20:04.660 This is coming our way.

00:20:06.280 And this is rather frightening.

00:20:08.400 So if I'm going to make a prediction, I think more people are going to wake up to what's happening this next year.

00:20:14.900 Michael, from your mouth to God's ears, I hope that does happen.

00:20:18.580 That's the only way we can take this country back is if people are aware, if they are awake, so to speak, not woke, but actually awake to what's happening and how we can fight back.

00:20:30.500 888-727-BECK.

00:20:32.720 Back is the number.

00:20:33.920 Back with one man who is.

00:20:35.440 He fought back.

00:20:36.400 And we'll give you some encouragement.

00:20:37.920 The good news coming up on the Glenn Beck program.

00:20:40.620 It is Barclay in for back today on the Glenn Beck program.

00:20:58.080 The last show of the year.

00:21:02.180 And, uh, we're going out with a bang.

00:21:04.840 At least we're attempting to.

00:21:05.900 What is the biggest story of 2022?

00:21:07.980 One of the questions I'm asking this morning.

00:21:09.580 Got a lot of great answers so far.

00:21:11.920 888-727-BECK.

00:21:14.720 888-727-BECK.

00:21:16.580 B-E-C-K. 1.00

00:21:17.440 And then the other question I have for you is predictions.

00:21:22.720 Like, what is your prediction for the coming year?

00:21:26.400 Seeing all the craziness that we've seen the last few years.

00:21:29.940 What do you predict coming out?

00:21:32.120 And I'll keep track of these.

00:21:33.100 And if I have the honor of filling in again, I did, I think I did this show last year, uh, for Glenn and the team.

00:21:39.320 So, if I have the honor of filling in again next year around this time, we'll pull out some of these predictions and see if you nailed them.

00:21:46.480 Um, all right.

00:21:47.380 So, let me get to a couple of those real quickly.

00:21:51.100 Let me do Samuel in Virginia first.

00:21:54.700 Sam, appreciate you joining us this morning.

00:21:56.660 The Glenn Beck program.

00:21:59.280 Yes, hello.

00:22:00.020 Good morning.

00:22:00.600 Thank you for taking my call.

00:22:01.780 What's your biggest story of the year, Sam?

00:22:08.960 Uh-oh.

00:22:09.480 Looks like we're losing.

00:22:10.480 Sam, if you get a better connection, you can call us back.

00:22:12.460 We'll try Glenn in Ohio.

00:22:13.560 Your biggest story of the year.

00:22:15.020 And you have a prediction to make, too, Glenn?

00:22:18.280 Yes, I do.

00:22:19.260 I think the biggest story of the year is an administration that facilitates actively and knowingly the commitment of high crimes and misdemeanors at the southern border.

00:22:28.960 Yeah.

00:22:29.360 And my prediction is that all of the negative information regarding COVID, the sudden deaths and heart attacks and 35-year-olds just dropping dead all over the place, the media is going to hold their powder with that information until Donald Trump gets into the next election cycle.

00:22:48.680 And will they use it against him at that point?

00:22:53.520 Yes, they will.

00:22:55.040 Yes, they will.

00:22:57.640 You know, interesting.

00:22:58.640 The question is going to...

00:23:02.680 Uh-oh, Glenn, I think I lost you there.

00:23:04.840 Yeah.

00:23:05.240 Yeah.

00:23:05.920 That's okay.

00:23:06.840 Sometimes we have that with the cell phones.

00:23:08.340 But, you know, it's a very interesting point.

00:23:12.240 You see a shift in the narrative sort of changing with the COVID, the Rona report, et cetera.

00:23:17.940 You're seeing that shift happen.

00:23:22.140 Little sort of cracks in the armor, so to speak, or in the dam.

00:23:27.640 And it drips and drops, and then eventually that thing breaks.

00:23:32.600 And, well, they then use the very thing, pretty much some of the folks in the media are responsible for some of this.

00:23:42.300 In fact, I got a report.

00:23:44.060 Some of the things coming out of China right now and across the world.

00:23:47.920 China's got a whole... 0.98

00:23:48.920 It basically proves that lockdowns didn't work.

00:23:55.000 I mean, what's happening right now in China basically proves that lockdowns are just completely in effect.

00:24:01.120 Not only that, but they may have done more to damage this country from a health perspective.

00:24:09.560 And then you get into the economics of it and what the kids went through and how many excess deaths we had.

00:24:17.620 And then everything else on top of it and the folks who are dying suddenly and unexpectedly right now.

00:24:25.100 Holy cow. 0.89

00:24:25.920 Yeah, and you talk about a story.

00:24:29.000 Speaking of those lockdowns and the story.

00:24:32.640 In fact, there's some good news to some of the horror stories.

00:24:34.980 You've heard them all that have come throughout the last couple of years.

00:24:38.760 A few states really had it bad.

00:24:42.880 Not many nearly as bad as we did here in Michigan.

00:24:46.200 And I'm broadcasting in Grand Rapids in West Michigan.

00:24:50.300 WOD.

00:24:51.080 That's a news radio with 1300 and 1069 FM.

00:24:54.680 And of course, my honor and pleasure to be here with you.

00:24:57.960 But one of the stories coming out of Michigan was the restaurants that were shut down and the businesses that were crippled and people lost them.

00:25:05.880 Of course, you've got what happened to the kids.

00:25:07.720 But one of the business owners decided to stand his ground.

00:25:12.860 He would not back down.

00:25:14.160 His name's Ian Murphy.

00:25:15.240 He owns the Iron Pig in Gaylord in Michigan.

00:25:20.140 Ian joins us right now.

00:25:21.620 Talk a little bit about what he went through.

00:25:23.180 But there's some good news that he's going to share today, too.

00:25:27.140 He just won a big fight.

00:25:28.960 And I think it's important for us to hear this, not just here in Michigan, but across the country when it comes to standing out for what's important.

00:25:37.160 And, of course, your principles.

00:25:38.400 Ian, appreciate you joining us on the Glenn Beck program.

00:25:40.640 Good morning, Justin.

00:25:42.600 Thanks for having me.

00:25:43.680 My pleasure.

00:25:44.360 So let's walk through this.

00:25:45.900 You know, there was a time, Ben Gretchen Whitmer, the governor here, the Wolverine Queen, as they call her.

00:25:53.100 She was making these edicts about places like restaurants, particularly, that were really under fire.

00:26:00.940 In fact, you could eat inside, but only if the inside was outside.

00:26:07.140 There was a time they had these igloos set up and these little outdoor huts.

00:26:11.600 And, like, it was just insanity.

00:26:14.020 And people that were able to think critically at the time were saying that.

00:26:17.680 What are you doing to our restaurants?

00:26:19.200 Some of these places just went through hell and back and barely made it.

00:26:23.000 But you decided you were going to stand up through it all.

00:26:26.180 What did that look like for you?

00:26:29.320 It's been a crazy, crazy journey for the last just over two years now.

00:26:34.900 You know, when they shut down restaurants again the end of November just before Thanksgiving in 2020, we stayed closed for the first week waiting, you know, for some kind of news, some kind of aid package, something.

00:26:51.680 And, you know, all the lawmakers and governor and everybody decided to go on Thanksgiving vacation and, you know, basically left us out to flap in the wind.

00:27:01.740 And so I just kind of, you know, we had originally, a buddy of mine and I, we were going to, we were actually in the middle of putting up wrapping paper on the front windows and we were going to kind of go under the radar.

00:27:13.300 And I just decided, you know, this just doesn't feel right.

00:27:17.420 So I called the health department, our local health officer and said, you know, tomorrow, the day before Thanksgiving, which is, you know, one of the biggest bar nights of the year.

00:27:26.040 I said, listen, you know, we're, we're going to go out of business if this keeps up like this.

00:27:29.820 So you're kind of forcing us to, to open back up.

00:27:33.640 And that's what we did.

00:27:34.720 And the next morning at about 1115, the health department was there with a cease and desist.

00:27:41.220 They wasted, they wasted no time.

00:27:44.140 And then the liquor commission followed that.

00:27:46.480 And then the department of agriculture followed that.

00:27:51.020 OSHA followed that as well.

00:27:52.840 I mean, they were bringing the full force of government down on you and every vice and grip they could find to tighten on you.

00:28:01.020 They were trying to get you from all angles, weren't they?

00:28:02.980 Yeah, and they, they knew from, from the beginning that those of us that have liquor licenses, you know, those are coveted.

00:28:11.700 So they knew that they could use that as the hammer over those of us with those licenses.

00:28:17.000 And they were very, very effective at doing that.

00:28:20.000 And ultimately, they kind of used us as an example and suspended my liquor license for 90 days and gave me a $600 fine.

00:28:31.020 And what we would find out later on is that January 6th of 2020, while we were still open against the health department orders, but not serving liquor, we had surrendered our liquor license.

00:28:44.380 We had taken the fine.

00:28:46.100 We were still under the suspension order.

00:28:47.900 They came back in January 6th, 2021, and did an undercover scene.

00:28:54.540 Now, this is the Liquor Commission.

00:28:56.440 And cited us again with another violation, basically for just being open.

00:29:01.580 They didn't cite us for serving alcohol without a license.

00:29:04.380 So it had nothing to do with liquor.

00:29:05.680 It's just a fact that you were open.

00:29:07.080 The governor said you shouldn't.

00:29:08.620 And by the way, I should also mention here, folks, that the Michigan State Supreme Court at one point, they ruled on this and that what the governor had ordered at one point, these shutdowns and whatnot, that they were illegal.

00:29:23.640 They were unconstitutional.

00:29:25.300 She then moved to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services without her mantle.

00:29:31.700 And by the way, this woman got reelected in a state. 1.00

00:29:34.060 I have no idea how that happened.

00:29:39.120 But, Ian, this is...

00:29:40.440 We went back and looked and found that she had actually been using the emergency orders of the health department law that we ended up challenging in court and got ruled unconstitutional, just like the Supreme Court ruling you're referencing.

00:29:55.480 And the majority of our case stems from that certified questions October 2020 Supreme Court case.

00:30:04.060 And got a brilliant ruling from Judge Hunter right here, literally across the street from the Iron Pig in circuit court. 0.92

00:30:12.820 So we went through various things.

00:30:15.700 You know, the health department, Dana Nassel's office, the attorney general, they appealed Judge Hunter's ruling.

00:30:23.960 They went right up to the Supreme Court to try to bypass the court of appeal.

00:30:28.320 So the Supreme Court has actually chimed in on this.

00:30:30.980 And they said they view it as certified questions, the sequel.

00:30:34.600 Now, a lot of things have happened in the last 60 days.

00:30:38.640 And one of the big ones was they gave up their appeal, which they were appealing Judge Hunter's ruling to the court of appeals.

00:30:45.640 They gave up that appeal.

00:30:48.260 So that's a that's a big win.

00:30:50.360 But just recently, I received a letter from the Liquor Commission via Dana Nassel's office, which has some sort of gambling and liquor division, apparently.

00:31:02.920 And this nice little letter said we are no longer going to be seeking charges against you for the January 6th, 2021 alleged violation.

00:31:13.540 No further action at this time.

00:31:16.360 So they gave up their appeal on Judge Hunter's unconstitutional ruling.

00:31:21.280 And then they gave up to the other thing that they had holding over us was this other liquor license violation.

00:31:27.020 So they just gave that up last week.

00:31:28.780 So this is a big win.

00:31:31.180 It would sound like under your belt in this battle to stand your ground, stand up for for running your business and and to be open to feed the folks there in Michigan.

00:31:40.820 But not only that, but to feed your family.

00:31:44.200 This is a big deal.

00:31:45.800 But this isn't it.

00:31:47.800 You've you've stood up.

00:31:49.340 You've stood your ground here.

00:31:50.820 Ian Murphy, the iron pig in Michigan, smokehouse.

00:31:56.820 You risk it for the brisket.

00:32:00.280 And and it worked out.

00:32:02.900 Apparently, you guys are fighting back, though.

00:32:05.420 You're doing something else.

00:32:06.400 There is a class action lawsuit.

00:32:10.620 Yeah.

00:32:11.360 So, you know, the end goal really for us is to have make sure that the unconstitutional ruling is is ultimately upheld by the Supreme Court.

00:32:19.920 So that's one thing.

00:32:20.840 The other thing that we want to do is hold some people accountable.

00:32:24.360 And, you know, as well as I do that, that money talks.

00:32:27.500 And right now, what we're attempting to do is form a class action lawsuit to take to the court of claims and sue Gretchen Whitmer, Dana Nessel, Bob Gordon and Elizabeth Hertel in their official capacities as it relates to the use of this now unconstitutional law in Michigan.

00:32:51.100 And by the way, Justin, they're still using this health order, this emergency order right now for vaccine mandates and nursing homes.

00:32:58.560 So it's it we're going on to almost three years now that they'll, you know, coming in March, it'll be three years that they're using this health order that is now unconstitutional.

00:33:08.760 Yeah.

00:33:09.660 But they're still doing it.

00:33:10.720 So Ian Murphy and the Iron Pig Smokehouse in Michigan standing out fighting back.

00:33:16.720 So we're going to have to wait to see how the class action plays out.

00:33:19.420 I know you're going to you're not you're not you're not slowing down anytime soon.

00:33:23.380 And I don't get that feeling.

00:33:24.780 I just want to ask you, because this is not a Michigan issue.

00:33:28.040 This is an issue that folks all around the country are are having the fight to struggle to battle with over the last couple of years.

00:33:35.920 But I think even more so is we get into the years to come.

00:33:40.440 We're at the cusp of a new year here.

00:33:42.960 None of this is going away anytime soon.

00:33:45.180 What do you say to folks who are deciding probably at some point here in the future, if they haven't yet,

00:33:51.040 they're going to have to make a decision about how they're going to stand for their principles, for their family, for their business, for whatever it might be.

00:33:58.980 What would you say to folks?

00:34:01.420 You know, what was it that moved you to do that?

00:34:03.840 And any encouragement or advice?

00:34:09.020 I was raised a certain way to challenge authority, usually in a respectful way.

00:34:15.540 But at the end of the day, it really was like you said, it was for my family.

00:34:19.540 It was for our family here, our employees at the Iron Pig.

00:34:23.280 And it was a risk that we had to take.

00:34:25.980 And at the end of the day, I would have rather had stood up for what I believed in, which was these things were wrong.

00:34:31.000 And there was certainly a better way to go about it.

00:34:33.240 And I would say to everybody that is listening that might be in or see themselves in a situation like this moving forward.

00:34:41.140 Don't give up.

00:34:43.000 Stand up for yourself.

00:34:44.960 We did.

00:34:45.760 And it paid off.

00:34:46.800 Our customers have come in and drove.

00:34:49.040 2021 was our best year on record.

00:34:51.120 22 was outstanding.

00:34:53.120 2023 looks to be even better.

00:34:55.140 And we're hoping to expand.

00:34:57.220 But what I do want to say real quick while I've got you is anybody in Michigan that is looking to join our lawsuit, our class action lawsuit, to go to fight4michigan.com.

00:35:08.980 There is a form you can fill out to join.

00:35:10.900 Again, anybody that is looking to join this class action should go to fight4michigan.com.

00:35:18.320 And let's get as many restaurants at least as we can.

00:35:20.880 Some gyms have already signed up as well.

00:35:23.000 But we're going to start to sift through this information and figure out and form the best class that we can so we can go sue the pants off the people responsible for destroying the restaurant industry in this state.

00:35:33.300 And still are.

00:35:34.460 You know, there's an employee minimum wage law that's being enacted here pretty soon that's just going to destroy our industry.

00:35:41.860 Ian Murphy, the fight continues.

00:35:44.060 The IronPigSmokeHouse.com.

00:35:45.980 We appreciate you taking the time.

00:35:47.920 If you're in the area there in Gaylord, Michigan, or you're coming through on vacation, stop in.

00:35:53.040 Ian, thank you for being here with us.

00:35:59.060 God bless.

00:38:13.780 And we say goodbye to 2022.

00:38:15.740 Usually this time of year is kind of slow, especially in the news cycle.

00:38:19.960 Well, not these days.

00:38:21.620 It's like drinking from a fire hose.

00:38:25.500 Those stories continue to come true.

00:38:27.200 We're going to talk to you about what you think might be the biggest story of the year,

00:38:30.260 even though we're not done yet.

00:38:31.180 It could drop between now and when the ball does.

00:38:34.900 Plus, I want to hear from you on predictions.

00:38:37.820 888-727-B-E-C-K is the number.

00:38:42.100 And we continue.

00:38:43.560 We're joined by Harmeet Dillon with one of the biggest stories of the year.

00:38:47.200 After this on the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:48.860 All right, the biggest story of the year.

00:39:06.520 Lots of folks hanging on.

00:39:08.160 And I want to get to you on the phones at 888-727-B-E-C-K.

00:39:12.000 And maybe even a prediction for next year.

00:39:16.180 One of the stories that just dropped is Trump's tax returns.

00:39:22.660 Oh, yeah.

00:39:22.920 They finally got them, folks.

00:39:24.580 Don't you know?

00:39:25.280 They finally.

00:39:27.200 This is it.

00:39:27.960 They're going to get them.

00:39:28.800 So they've released these.

00:39:29.980 The Democrats in the House released these last minute.

00:39:32.440 On Friday.

00:39:34.080 Before the end of the year.

00:39:35.380 You know that.

00:39:35.740 So you know there's nothing in there.

00:39:37.240 There's nothing.

00:39:38.080 It's a big nothing burger.

00:39:39.580 Just like everything else.

00:39:42.020 But you know.

00:39:42.780 They finally got them again.

00:39:44.000 Here we go again.

00:39:44.920 So of course folks are combing through it right now.

00:39:47.400 Trying to figure out what.

00:39:48.660 You know.

00:39:49.320 If there's anything worth talking about in there.

00:39:52.980 I will tell you that.

00:39:54.900 Again.

00:39:56.300 This is just like everything else in my book.

00:40:00.140 Don't hold your breath.

00:40:01.140 Let me just put it that way.

00:40:02.200 Another big story.

00:40:03.080 Somebody mentioned over on Twitter.

00:40:05.080 At Mr. Justin Barkley on Twitter.

00:40:06.840 You can connect with me anywhere.

00:40:07.900 Justin Barkley dot com.

00:40:10.540 If you want to connect.

00:40:11.620 Send me a message as well.

00:40:13.260 Your predictions.

00:40:13.920 Your big story.

00:40:14.460 But say.

00:40:15.300 The right on Mar-a-Lago.

00:40:18.160 Yeah.

00:40:19.080 Yeah.

00:40:19.660 But you know.

00:40:20.400 This is the thing.

00:40:21.260 About this year.

00:40:22.200 There's been story.

00:40:23.240 After story.

00:40:24.140 After story.

00:40:25.580 And I have to say.

00:40:26.400 It's like drinking from a fire hose.

00:40:27.880 I mean that.

00:40:28.640 They come at you so fast and furious.

00:40:30.980 I think part of that is intentional.

00:40:32.460 They don't want us to be able to catch your breath.

00:40:34.140 And really think about.

00:40:37.420 Process what is happening.

00:40:39.620 Harmeet Dillon joins us right now with a big story.

00:40:41.660 In fact a big win.

00:40:43.060 A win for Trump.

00:40:44.520 A win for justice.

00:40:45.920 In the January 6th committee.

00:40:48.480 Rescending that Trump subpoena.

00:40:49.960 Harmeet.

00:40:50.160 Appreciate you joining us today.

00:40:52.440 Thanks for having me.

00:40:54.200 So give us the history.

00:40:55.680 Just brush us off on some of this.

00:40:57.320 Obviously you've been an attorney.

00:40:58.880 For President Trump.

00:40:59.980 And in fact you're also running.

00:41:02.320 To be the chair of the RNC.

00:41:03.760 We'll talk about that coming up here.

00:41:05.000 In just a little bit.

00:41:05.780 But just give us sort of the brush up on this story.

00:41:09.580 And the big win.

00:41:12.020 Well sure.

00:41:12.660 So as we know most of the last two years in the House.

00:41:17.960 Has been dominated by this January 6th committee.

00:41:21.540 Which supposedly was to fact find for legislation.

00:41:25.800 Which is really the only legitimate purpose of a House hearing.

00:41:28.920 But in fact they hired Hollywood producers.

00:41:31.620 And they had you know various breaks and interruptions.

00:41:34.940 And all this drama was basically a long extended ad for Democrats.

00:41:38.940 As to you know why Republicans should not win the 2022 election.

00:41:44.360 And President Trump should never be allowed to hold office again.

00:41:46.820 And so that was kind of the purpose of it.

00:41:49.100 And you would think that if that's the purpose of it.

00:41:51.340 And they really want to you know hold people accountable.

00:41:54.200 Or what have you.

00:41:55.380 They would actually subpoena the star witness.

00:41:57.780 You know pretty early on in the process.

00:41:59.840 That is a year and a half ago.

00:42:01.960 In fact they didn't do that.

00:42:03.980 They dragged a lot of other folks through the VOD.

00:42:06.380 Including a lot of my colleagues.

00:42:07.540 At the Republican National Committee.

00:42:10.180 They had a lot of testimony.

00:42:11.880 And then after they produced the one piece of legislation.

00:42:15.100 Out of this committee.

00:42:17.020 The Electoral Count Act.

00:42:19.660 Then in late October.

00:42:21.680 They issued a subpoena for President Trump.

00:42:24.120 And so you know President Trump's team.

00:42:27.200 Hired my law firm.

00:42:28.320 Mainly my two partners on the East Coast.

00:42:30.320 Handled this case.

00:42:31.800 And we negotiated with them.

00:42:34.500 And said hey you know this subpoena is very overbroad.

00:42:37.320 And you know this is you know really not warranted.

00:42:40.120 By any proper purpose of Congress.

00:42:41.760 And so forth.

00:42:42.660 And so you know we weren't able to reach an agreement.

00:42:45.940 So we went and filed a lawsuit in federal court.

00:42:48.140 In Florida.

00:42:49.980 To quash the subpoena.

00:42:52.320 To basically say that the subpoena.

00:42:54.240 As a matter of law is illegitimate.

00:42:56.300 It's not properly issued.

00:42:57.760 It's overbroad.

00:42:59.040 It also most importantly violates separation of powers.

00:43:02.900 And you know in that we were citing the fact that dating back to the beginning of our republic.

00:43:09.160 Former president or even current president has never been forced to testify in Congress.

00:43:14.640 Congress is a co-equal branch of our government.

00:43:17.160 And you know the executive branch has its own prerogatives.

00:43:20.500 And so we made that argument in court.

00:43:25.340 We served the House Democrats in the House Committee in a prompt fashion.

00:43:31.560 And they chose not to chew in court.

00:43:35.520 You know they could have shown up and gotten a ruling from this federal court.

00:43:38.480 They could have moved to dismiss the case.

00:43:39.940 They could have defended their subpoena.

00:43:41.700 They could have in other words staked out their position.

00:43:44.680 But they didn't.

00:43:45.660 But they let the year lapse without showing up in court to defend their subpoena.

00:43:51.500 And then they quietly withdrew the subpoena two evenings ago on Wednesday evening.

00:43:56.520 We got an email from the House saying hey by the way that subpoena don't worry about it.

00:44:00.740 We're withdrawing it.

00:44:01.740 So what is it.

00:44:02.860 My takeaway from all of that is the whole thing was a made for TV charade.

00:44:07.900 They never actually wanted or thought they were going to get this testimony.

00:44:11.340 They knew that constitutionally it was infirm.

00:44:13.820 And you know they cost so many people millions of dollars to produce this report.

00:44:20.460 That is not a document that really I think holds a legislative weight at all.

00:44:25.620 It's a political document.

00:44:29.080 And that is a total abuse of process of Congress.

00:44:33.780 And so you know it ended up happily in this case.

00:44:36.900 But all of my friends at the RNC and so many others who were spending their own money to come before this committee.

00:44:43.840 You know it was it was it was such a huge waste of resources all around.

00:44:48.320 Yeah and it's par for the course for what what they've been up to here.

00:44:51.720 It's it's it's the latest but a big win and we move forward part of that moving forward as we've been looking back at the last year.

00:45:00.920 But big stories and maybe predictions for the new year you're running to be the chair of the RNC right now.

00:45:08.660 I want to talk to you a little bit about that because you know folks are you know they're looking for change.

00:45:13.820 That's one of the things that we continue to hear about you are you're talking about this.

00:45:21.460 What are you looking to to do to change party leadership.

00:45:25.140 What do you want people to help you know you do with that.

00:45:28.000 And how would you like to make that happen.

00:45:31.020 Well well thank you.

00:45:32.240 So we've had the same chair Ronna Romney McDaniel for six years at the RNC.

00:45:38.200 And she actually you know did not have a contested election at that point.

00:45:43.320 She was the chair of the Michigan GOP when President Trump was running in 2016.

00:45:49.340 And you know she helped deliver Michigan for him and famously invited him there many times.

00:45:54.620 And as a result he did win that state.

00:45:58.160 And so she was rewarded for that by President Trump installing her as the chair of the RNC.

00:46:04.960 This is this is typical in our in our party structure.

00:46:08.540 But you know he's endorsed her several times after that and now she served six years.

00:46:14.560 And in those six years we've lost the House the Senate and the White House.

00:46:18.180 And that's no one person's fault or you know specific policies that we can point to you know that are necessarily responsible for that.

00:46:28.980 But when you're the leader of a party and the party continues to sort of not win elections and the same policies are in place.

00:46:36.500 You know we're not engaging in early voting coaching of our of our state parties or training people on ballot harvesting and and and chasing ballots and ballot curing.

00:46:47.360 Which is what you have to do to compete with the Democrats whether we like these laws or not and we don't like them at the Republican Party.

00:46:53.720 But you know until you can change those laws you have to take advantage of them.

00:46:57.600 We have not been leading on that issue.

00:46:59.860 We are not motivating our voters to get out and vote frankly with our with our rhetoric or our reference to our policies.

00:47:08.460 We're not drawing a sharp contrast between ourselves and the Democrats.

00:47:11.600 I think ever since dating back to the Russia collusion hoax at the party we've actually been letting the Democrats set the stage.

00:47:19.840 We've been letting them set the tone.

00:47:21.820 We've been constantly reacting to their propaganda and lies and and and bad policies.

00:47:28.800 And as a result we have lost touch with our base.

00:47:33.460 Our base is not happy with us.

00:47:35.380 And that's what I hear as a as a media commentator and as a Republican activist who's also active on social media.

00:47:42.360 I hear from hundreds if not thousands of Republicans on a weekly basis what they think and what they'd like to see us doing better.

00:47:48.540 And you know it's not breaking through at the party level.

00:47:50.820 The party is very top down and it has been that way since before Ron.

00:47:54.620 I would say you know there's been no contested leadership election in 12 years at the RNC.

00:47:59.240 So that's that's the background and what I would like to see change is we have 168 very qualified members of the RNC with a lot of different skills.

00:48:09.640 Some of us are good in communication.

00:48:11.180 Some of us are good in data.

00:48:12.800 Some of us are good in strategy fundraising you name it.

00:48:16.340 And so we immediately should be harnessing more of that energy.

00:48:19.200 We have to be competing with the Democrats to get our ballots into the ballot boxes as early as possible in the process and not emotionally appealing and you know putting out expensive ads that political consultants get their 15 percent cut on and just hoping that people will show up.

00:48:36.740 I mean the Democrats had Katie Hobbs and John Fetterman and Joe Biden elected so I think that proves that you can get a absolute nothing burger elected if you have the mechanics to do that.

00:48:50.160 And we have good candidates we have better ideas we have better policies but we don't have that infrastructure that the party should have been building all these years.

00:48:58.080 And so that's one thing I would do better communications and and and you know overall freshen up the party's image.

00:49:05.460 I think that that's needed for confidence of our voters and so many members of Congress and senators and even major donors have been calling me and saying thank God somebody stepping up for a change.

00:49:16.440 You know we we don't wish anything negative about you know the current incumbent it's just that if you have an organization that has been stagnant for some time be it a corporation be it a sports team be it a political party you have to have change.

00:49:34.120 And and if if our chair were to get the fourth term should be the longest serving head of political party dating back I think over 150 years.

00:49:44.960 So you have to ask how do we have the results to merit that I don't think so.

00:49:50.080 You know one of the things we hear in Michigan where I'm based is a lot about grassroots and the getting the grassroots together working with so-called establishment folks in their grassroots wants to take back the party.

00:50:03.360 What does that look like and how do you get those two together and and is it is that possible I think you really need them both in order to compete you know somebody told me this the other great question what's a Democrat word for rhino.

00:50:20.480 There is none.

00:50:22.540 Exactly.

00:50:23.560 They don't have it so so so what what's your what's your answer to that I mean how do we do that.

00:50:30.400 Well look I mean you can't have the shareholders running the corporation directly if it's a you know public corporation there have to be some layers of management and there have to be some professionals who are hired to do the work as well.

00:50:43.460 And so the question is what do we have right now in the party.

00:50:47.700 I think we have you know I mean you know Rana was going into this election before I entered it with pretty much you know two-thirds of the members of the RNC saying yeah this is great.

00:50:57.940 Let's have two more years of this.

00:51:00.180 Okay.

00:51:00.480 So what does that tell you when 100 percent from what I'm seeing of polls out there of the base of our party of members who are contacting the members of the RNC.

00:51:09.320 We they're saying we want change literally I mean that's every email I'm getting is saying we want change nobody's saying let's have two more years of the same.

00:51:16.940 And so we've lost touch with the grassroots of our party and that is I don't want to bore your listeners with arcana of how people get elected to the RNC.

00:51:24.860 But you know with with myself I'm in a four-year term so I got elected in in 2020 and you know I could do anything I want pretty much unless I'm recalled which never happened for four years.

00:51:38.260 I could ignore the grassroots and I would never be held accountable for that and that's exactly the situation that we're in in the party.

00:51:44.360 And so the members of the RNC are not even elected directly by Republican voters Republican voters elect their state party and so I'm one of those people I'm in the state party as a delegate to the state party and then the state party delegates or precinct committee men or however the structure is in the state they elect the members of the RNC.

00:52:06.060 So what we are seeing in the around the country interestingly is those state parties are beginning to revolt and you know in some states they're holding meetings they're asking for a vote of no confidence in the chair and they're asking for a change in leadership at the RNC and so that's actually been a pretty impactful and I've never seen that in my all my years of Republican activism.

00:52:24.620 I've never seen that kind of revolt at that political grassroots level in the states and that's encouraging you know do we have enough time to pull this off.

00:52:33.560 I've certainly I'm picking up steam amongst members and calling them and spending most of my day on the phone convincing members as to our issues with respect to fundraising with respect.

00:52:43.440 We've got it. Hang on. Hang on one second.

00:52:45.080 We got to take a quick break.

00:52:46.460 I want one more question for you when we come back about the next steps and what people can do to help.

00:52:50.840 Army Dillon joins us right now.

00:52:52.160 She of course running for chair the RNC and the big news the big story about President Trump and of course the subpoena dropped there in the House back with more right after this the Glenn Beck program.

00:53:03.560 Now we had it rough in Michigan but it just was it was all over that red wave was a bit of a red trickle in some ways although we did get the House.

00:53:15.980 One of the things that I heard particularly the day after the election was the disparagement of the folks just feeling just like like hopeless.

00:53:24.760 Some folks saying I'm never voting again.

00:53:26.960 Army Dillon with us right now running for chair RNC.

00:53:29.580 Let me ask you what do you do to encourage folks to stay engaged in a process and make sure that they do make a difference.

00:53:38.200 Well the first thing you do is be responsive to their demands by changing the leadership of the party.

00:53:43.140 You renew your commitment to our core principles and values which we don't hear a lot.

00:53:47.920 We haven't heard a lot about over the last few years but hey we have a party platform that lays out you know pretty pretty detailed you know sort of principles and policies that we would like to see accomplished.

00:53:58.800 You encourage candidates to run who are consistent with those policies you know you kind of you get back in those communities.

00:54:06.820 Now you know the chair has tried to reconnect with or connect actually for the first time with some communities who haven't voted Republican by putting community centers in you know ethnic neighborhoods and you know that's sort of a step in the right direction but you kind of only reach so many people that way.

00:54:25.340 I think we need to just you know really be having a commitment to some core principles that attract people of all different backgrounds and the more messengers we have of different backgrounds young people for example is a huge category that our party has virtually ignored.

00:54:43.980 In fact you know the fact that some of my friends are active in turning point USA and are supporting me for chair has led to a backlash against young young Republicans believe it or not you know.

00:54:56.100 And so you know which is crazy those are the future voters those are the ones who are most likely to vote Democrat and it is actually so inexpensive to reach those voters through the use of tactics like like young social media influencers.

00:55:11.980 You know if you and the Democrats use them you've seen these goofy goofy videos of these you know goofy you know left wing and people in the White House of being this you know tick tock influencers and Instagram influencers when you compare the cost of having a stable of young communicators on your team compared to what we spend on advertising and direct mail and other like old school garbage that isn't really working.

00:55:36.500 It would be a game changer if we actually instead of you know like looking down on these young people who want to get involved and want to see some change in the party how about if we involve them.

00:55:47.480 I love that idea of engaging these people because they are awake we've got a lot of young folks that are very engaged and are waking up and they are very concerned about the future of this country and and they I think there's a big movement happening so I appreciate the idea there.

00:56:05.860 Harmeet Dillon I want folks that we got to wrap because I know you got to move but so do we but where can folks find you online and and connect.

00:56:14.840 Twitter I'm at at T-N-J-A-B-A-N my website for my campaign is Dillon D-H-I-L-L-O-N-F-O-R-R-N-C.com and thank you for any support.

00:56:27.580 God bless appreciate you being here with us today Harmeet Dillon we're back in just moments talking to you biggest stories of the year

00:56:32.520 and predictions still yet to come for the new year

00:56:36.060 888-727-BECK you can join the Glenn Beck program next.

00:56:42.980 The Glenn Beck program.

00:56:44.980 888-727-BECK

00:56:57.940 888-727-BECK

00:57:00.020 That's 888-727-BECK

00:57:02.680 Justin Barkley in for Beck today

00:57:04.180 On the Glenn Beck program

00:57:06.520 And I want to hear from you

00:57:08.180 We give you a little bit of time here at the end of the year

00:57:10.400 The last show of 2022

00:57:12.840 And I'm I'm in some ways because it's Friday too

00:57:17.140 So in some ways I'm handing the show over to you

00:57:20.140 So I want to hear from you

00:57:22.180 Biggest story of the year

00:57:23.520 Maybe it's a story that didn't get

00:57:25.280 The notice the attention that it should have

00:57:28.500 But you believe biggest story of the year

00:57:30.480 Also looking for predictions coming from next year

00:57:34.400 Any that you want to add

00:57:36.000 It's hard to tell

00:57:38.000 What

00:57:39.240 Anybody ask me all types of things

00:57:41.860 What's going to happen here

00:57:42.640 What's going to happen there

00:57:43.440 And I always say

00:57:43.960 I mean I don't know

00:57:44.940 I know God is on the throne though

00:57:48.220 And that's

00:57:48.840 The only certainty I have these days

00:57:51.460 In fact

00:57:53.580 I'm not even sure what this was

00:57:54.780 Merry Christmas

00:57:55.860 Did you say Happy New Year

00:57:57.820 What do you say during this time of year

00:57:59.100 A lot of uncertainty this time of year

00:58:00.540 I'm not really sure

00:58:01.300 I'm not the only one

00:58:02.280 In fact

00:58:02.860 I don't know if you saw this

00:58:04.620 Just a little bit before the break here last week

00:58:08.400 Nancy Pelosi

00:58:11.040 Also very unsure what to say

00:58:12.980 Strong bipartisan

00:58:13.760 I vote

00:58:14.660 Yield back the balance of my time

00:58:17.340 In which everyone

00:58:18.560 A happy, healthy, and safe

00:58:20.700 New Year

00:58:21.760 Happy Holidays

00:58:22.880 Merry Christmas

00:58:23.720 Happy Schwanza

00:58:24.560 Happy Hanukkah

00:58:25.440 Whatever it is you celebrate

00:58:27.560 Happy

00:58:28.120 Happy Schwanza

00:58:29.280 Merry Christmas

00:58:30.120 Happy Schwanza

00:58:30.980 Happy Hanukkah

00:58:31.860 Whatever it is you celebrate

00:58:33.980 Happy Schwanza

00:58:35.820 Folks

00:58:36.180 Maybe that's what we should stick with

00:58:38.080 What day of Schwanza is it

00:58:40.660 Does anyone know

00:58:41.580 I'm not

00:58:41.980 I'm not up on my Schwanza 0.56

00:58:43.780 Festivities

00:58:46.740 Although

00:58:47.780 Maybe I'll see if I can look that up

00:58:49.820 888-727-BECK

00:58:51.940 Back

00:58:52.360 Samuel in Virginia

00:58:53.660 Called earlier

00:58:54.300 Tried to get him back on

00:58:55.320 He said that biggest story of the year

00:58:57.260 I tend to agree

00:58:58.200 It's gotta be some

00:58:58.980 Maybe that border crisis

00:59:00.320 In some way

00:59:01.240 Samuel

00:59:01.580 But you also had a prediction too

00:59:03.100 For us

00:59:03.560 Yeah

00:59:05.100 So

00:59:05.520 I was going to say

00:59:07.240 That I think the border crisis

00:59:08.780 Probably is

00:59:09.400 One of the biggest

00:59:10.400 Topics

00:59:12.300 And storylines

00:59:13.140 Of this year

00:59:13.700 Kind of like what

00:59:16.320 Nikita Khrushchev

00:59:17.820 Of the Soviet Union

00:59:19.080 Said years ago

00:59:19.940 That

00:59:20.200 We'll take America 0.98

00:59:21.860 From within

00:59:22.460 Without firing a shot

00:59:23.500 That's

00:59:24.620 Kind of what's happening

00:59:25.440 To America right now

00:59:26.680 With the invasion

00:59:27.680 At the border

00:59:28.200 But

00:59:28.580 I'd say my prediction

00:59:30.800 Though for

00:59:31.460 2023

00:59:32.540 Is that

00:59:33.420 We could potentially

00:59:34.480 See a stock market crash

00:59:36.340 Like that

00:59:36.840 Which we've never seen

00:59:37.740 And by the way

00:59:38.620 I like what you said

00:59:39.400 God is on the throne

00:59:40.760 And he

00:59:41.840 He's watching

00:59:42.880 Over all of us

00:59:43.660 So

00:59:43.940 Thank you

00:59:44.540 Amen

00:59:45.240 Thank you

00:59:45.920 Thank you brother

00:59:46.520 I appreciate that

00:59:47.440 Stock market crash

00:59:49.860 Bigger

00:59:50.360 Likes of anything

00:59:51.360 You've ever seen

00:59:52.260 He said

00:59:52.800 Write that down

00:59:54.880 Maybe we revisit these

00:59:57.380 Here

00:59:57.700 Come again next year

00:59:58.880 And see

01:00:00.180 If anybody

01:00:02.180 I

01:00:03.180 I hope not

01:00:04.060 But boy

01:00:04.660 I tell you

01:00:05.160 Financial uncertainty

01:00:06.580 That is a big

01:00:09.160 Theme

01:00:09.660 For what we're seeing

01:00:10.680 Unfolding right now

01:00:12.740 But also

01:00:13.300 On the horizon

01:00:14.260 Kevin in Tennessee

01:00:16.900 888-727-BEC

01:00:18.920 888-727-BECK

01:00:21.400 Biggest story of the year

01:00:22.680 And maybe

01:00:23.240 A prediction

01:00:24.640 Kevin you're on

01:00:25.220 The Glenn Beck program

01:00:26.040 Good morning Justin

01:00:28.040 You're sitting in my

01:00:28.820 Hometown for 45 years

01:00:30.460 But I got out of there

01:00:31.480 Because I couldn't

01:00:32.020 Stand the politics

01:00:33.200 Of what's happening

01:00:35.000 In Michigan

01:00:35.520 You can vote Republican

01:00:37.220 On your side

01:00:38.100 And the other side

01:00:39.160 Takes over

01:00:39.800 And then they win

01:00:40.560 My biggest story

01:00:42.460 For 2022

01:00:43.460 Is 0.88

01:00:44.060 How the red tsunami

01:00:45.640 Turned into just

01:00:46.520 A trickle

01:00:47.180 And they became

01:00:48.460 Way over confident

01:00:49.820 And they were

01:00:50.440 Infighting so much

01:00:51.700 With McConnell

01:00:52.380 Not backing

01:00:53.500 Senators

01:00:54.780 And spending

01:00:55.660 His money

01:00:56.300 And he's part

01:00:57.360 Of the cabal

01:00:58.160 Up there

01:00:58.540 That we need

01:00:59.040 To get rid of

01:00:59.760 And my prediction

01:01:01.520 For 23

01:01:02.960 Is going to be

01:01:04.240 The same thing

01:01:05.200 That the Republicans

01:01:06.460 Would just turn

01:01:07.320 Right around

01:01:07.860 And fall flat

01:01:08.560 On their face

01:01:09.160 Because whenever

01:01:09.820 They take charge

01:01:10.880 They don't know

01:01:11.700 How to lead

01:01:12.380 And you've got

01:01:13.240 And you see

01:01:14.340 The fight already

01:01:15.200 With McCarthy

01:01:16.320 He's nothing

01:01:17.360 But another

01:01:17.960 Ryan

01:01:18.420 So if we're

01:01:19.460 Sitting here

01:01:19.940 Looking at it

01:01:20.540 Now as Republicans

01:01:21.500 We're going to

01:01:22.420 Be shaking our heads

01:01:23.340 And the disappointment

01:01:24.120 Is going to be

01:01:24.580 Even greater

01:01:25.120 In 23

01:01:25.740 Because

01:01:26.300 They've proven

01:01:28.740 In the past

01:01:29.540 That they're just

01:01:30.600 Nothing but part

01:01:31.360 Of the swamp

01:01:31.960 Up there

01:01:32.440 And I tell my

01:01:33.940 Friends this

01:01:34.580 Justin

01:01:35.000 This biblically

01:01:35.860 When Jesus

01:01:37.380 Died on the cross

01:01:38.360 The veil was

01:01:39.020 Ripped in the temple

01:01:39.920 Well when Trump

01:01:41.700 Walked in

01:01:42.460 He ripped that veil

01:01:44.060 Well everyone

01:01:45.160 Could see it

01:01:46.060 What's going on

01:01:47.600 Up there in Washington

01:01:48.500 And it's just

01:01:49.900 Nothing but

01:01:50.640 Garbage pit

01:01:51.640 And the American

01:01:53.000 Public can see it

01:01:54.020 But I just

01:01:54.500 Cannot believe

01:01:55.440 That once they

01:01:56.900 Hit their knees

01:01:57.860 And they weren't

01:01:59.060 Praying to God

01:01:59.940 They hit their knees

01:02:01.000 But now they've got

01:02:01.700 To get their faces

01:02:02.320 Pushed into the mud

01:02:03.440 To really realize

01:02:05.000 And wake up

01:02:05.820 Like the last

01:02:06.860 Gentleman said

01:02:07.500 The border

01:02:08.080 And the economy

01:02:09.820 The stock market

01:02:11.300 Everything is tumbling

01:02:12.700 But take a look

01:02:13.940 At how they failed

01:02:14.880 The Republicans

01:02:15.520 Failed in this

01:02:16.940 Last election

01:02:17.840 They've got to

01:02:19.120 Change and I

01:02:19.860 Like this

01:02:20.340 I like the gal 0.99

01:02:21.240 You had on

01:02:21.980 Harm me

01:02:23.100 Boy I tell you

01:02:23.880 What that's

01:02:24.400 What we need

01:02:25.180 Get rid of

01:02:26.220 McDonnell

01:02:26.740 Or Daniel

01:02:27.380 Whatever her name

01:02:28.060 Is and let's

01:02:29.160 Get some fresh

01:02:29.860 Young blood in

01:02:30.680 There that wants

01:02:31.200 To fight

01:02:31.840 And let's get

01:02:33.100 Our country

01:02:33.880 Back again

01:02:35.120 I don't know

01:02:35.940 What it's going

01:02:36.400 To take

01:02:36.900 But he's right

01:02:39.320 God is on the

01:02:40.240 Throne and that's

01:02:40.920 The only thing

01:02:41.440 We can really

01:02:42.220 Take faith in

01:02:43.160 Justin

01:02:43.940 Thank you

01:02:44.400 For everything

01:02:45.080 Merry Christmas

01:02:46.720 And Happy New Year

01:02:48.160 To your brother

01:02:48.800 And Happy

01:02:49.800 Schwanzaa

01:02:50.340 Kevin

01:02:50.600 Whatever

01:02:52.440 Whatever that is

01:02:53.520 I don't know

01:02:57.760 I don't know

01:02:58.360 What it is

01:02:58.840 That was

01:02:59.220 It's Nancy Pelosi's

01:03:00.700 Merry Christmas

01:03:01.920 Happy Schwanzaa

01:03:02.880 Happy

01:03:03.100 Whatever it is

01:03:05.220 You celebrate

01:03:06.220 Yeah whatever it is

01:03:07.200 You celebrate

01:03:07.880 Happy

01:03:08.460 I'm sorry

01:03:12.940 That Kevin

01:03:13.420 Ran off so

01:03:14.840 Quickly

01:03:15.080 My question

01:03:16.140 Because I think

01:03:16.900 This is very

01:03:17.460 Important

01:03:18.000 But let me

01:03:18.640 Let me just

01:03:20.000 Pose this

01:03:20.860 And you think

01:03:21.420 About it too

01:03:21.960 But what is

01:03:22.960 He said

01:03:24.740 Much of what's

01:03:25.680 Coming in the next

01:03:26.380 Year is much

01:03:26.840 Of what we've

01:03:27.300 Seen before

01:03:28.120 Maybe some of it

01:03:30.360 Is going to get

01:03:31.040 Worse

01:03:31.460 How bad does

01:03:35.780 It have to get

01:03:36.500 That was one

01:03:37.540 Of my questions

01:03:38.360 The day

01:03:39.280 After the election

01:03:40.380 Was

01:03:40.780 You know

01:03:41.540 How bad

01:03:42.160 Does it have

01:03:42.820 To get

01:03:43.440 What do you

01:03:46.780 What do you

01:03:47.320 What do you

01:03:47.760 Need to see

01:03:48.360 Here

01:03:48.800 You know

01:03:50.100 Gas prices

01:03:52.000 Everything

01:03:52.520 Gas to groceries

01:03:53.440 Through the roof

01:03:54.180 And you thought

01:03:56.740 I think

01:03:57.920 Folks

01:03:58.640 Maybe that was 0.51

01:03:59.580 Part of the issue

01:04:00.320 With the

01:04:00.760 The red wave

01:04:01.500 Not really

01:04:02.260 You know

01:04:04.100 Showing up

01:04:04.940 In the ways

01:04:05.540 That some

01:04:06.200 Thought it would

01:04:07.020 You know

01:04:08.160 Oh yeah

01:04:08.500 For sure

01:04:09.020 I mean

01:04:09.440 This is

01:04:09.920 This is

01:04:10.960 This is so bad

01:04:12.140 Things are so bad

01:04:13.580 That

01:04:13.900 There's just no way

01:04:16.120 There's no way

01:04:17.760 That we're going to

01:04:18.420 Continue to elect

01:04:19.340 Democrats

01:04:19.860 Folks

01:04:21.000 I'm in Michigan

01:04:21.980 All three

01:04:24.200 I called them

01:04:26.400 The

01:04:26.640 The evil trinity

01:04:28.820 But all three

01:04:29.820 Of those

01:04:30.620 Of the trio

01:04:31.280 That the

01:04:31.780 Michigan

01:04:32.180 The governor

01:04:32.880 The attorney general

01:04:34.140 And the secretary

01:04:34.860 Of state

01:04:35.460 All three

01:04:36.280 Were reelected

01:04:37.240 And in fact

01:04:39.860 In the district

01:04:40.880 That I'm in

01:04:41.580 A democrat

01:04:42.440 Got elected

01:04:43.220 For the first

01:04:44.420 Time

01:04:45.300 Was it ever

01:04:48.280 Maybe

01:04:49.140 Maybe ever

01:04:50.220 But

01:04:51.540 In a long time

01:04:53.260 In my

01:04:54.860 In the congressional district

01:04:56.080 I didn't

01:04:57.020 I just

01:04:57.640 How is this

01:04:58.580 Possible

01:05:01.440 Does it have

01:05:01.880 To get

01:05:02.240 One of the

01:05:03.760 Things that I'll

01:05:04.300 Mention

01:05:04.540 When you're

01:05:04.840 Talking about

01:05:05.220 The big stories

01:05:12.560 They're

01:05:12.740 Stories that

01:05:13.100 We haven't

01:05:13.500 Heard yet

01:05:14.920 Paying close

01:05:15.520 Attention to

01:05:16.380 Reason I

01:05:16.800 Brought that

01:05:17.300 Up is

01:05:17.700 That

01:08:43.160 lot about

01:08:43.560 him I'm

01:08:43.880 sure in

01:08:44.200 the coming

01:08:45.560 days and

01:08:46.000 him and

01:08:46.340 his brother

01:08:46.660 arrested in

01:08:47.320 Romania

01:08:47.740 is a

01:08:48.240 former

01:08:48.740 ultimate

01:08:49.240 fighter and

01:08:51.060 a businessman

01:08:51.620 I guess

01:08:52.880 and they

01:08:53.340 say now

01:08:53.780 alleging

01:08:54.300 reports are

01:08:55.380 arrested in

01:08:56.860 some sort

01:08:57.280 of trafficking

01:08:58.280 human trafficking

01:08:59.060 sting and

01:08:59.680 who knows

01:09:01.120 what the

01:09:02.180 truth on

01:09:02.580 anything is

01:09:03.140 anymore

01:09:03.660 but there

01:09:05.840 are folks

01:09:06.560 on both

01:09:07.060 sides of

01:09:07.520 this

01:09:07.840 skeptical

01:09:09.000 and then

01:09:09.500 yet people

01:09:10.560 that are

01:09:10.920 just because

01:09:11.440 he was such

01:09:11.920 a controversial

01:09:12.560 figure and

01:09:13.280 at one point

01:09:13.660 canceled on

01:09:14.300 social media

01:09:14.960 for saying

01:09:16.660 the wrong

01:09:17.020 things you

01:09:17.640 know of

01:09:17.920 course and

01:09:26.280 of this and

01:09:26.680 the proceedings

01:09:27.460 now happening

01:09:28.120 in a Romanian

01:09:29.360 court they're

01:09:29.960 trying to decide

01:09:30.640 whether they're

01:09:31.000 going to

01:09:31.640 continue to

01:09:32.680 detain him and

01:09:33.360 his brother

01:09:33.740 Andrew Tate

01:09:34.400 and his

01:09:34.960 brother for

01:09:36.020 what 30

01:09:36.860 days so

01:09:49.920 me go to

01:09:50.240 Jamie who

01:09:50.860 has some

01:09:51.300 information we

01:09:51.940 just found

01:10:11.760 information for

01:10:12.540 us on this

01:10:13.020 Jamie in

01:10:14.360 day of Schwanza

01:10:15.680 well happy

01:10:16.960 Schwanza

01:10:17.440 Justin it is

01:10:18.620 the time we

01:10:19.340 celebrate home

01:10:20.180 food delivery

01:10:20.920 services

01:10:21.660 now today

01:10:26.860 is the fifth

01:10:27.620 day of Schwanza

01:10:28.560 where we

01:10:29.120 celebrate chicken

01:10:30.020 and broccoli

01:10:30.640 it's a healthy

01:10:31.640 alternative seeing

01:10:32.760 as tomorrow is

01:10:33.560 pork and black

01:10:34.260 eyed peas day

01:10:35.060 oh okay

01:10:35.720 we commended

01:10:37.220 for her Schwanza

01:10:38.240 affirmation

01:10:39.120 nestled in between

01:10:40.340 Christmas and

01:10:41.100 New Year's and

01:10:41.700 just after

01:10:42.280 Festivus it's

01:10:43.320 widely forgotten

01:10:44.080 yeah that's

01:10:45.560 good for her

01:10:46.720 because you

01:10:47.340 know some of

01:10:47.720 these folks are

01:10:48.260 marginalized that

01:10:49.080 celebrate this

01:10:50.380 day Jamie I

01:10:51.300 appreciate the

01:10:51.980 phone call thank

01:10:52.640 you very much

01:10:53.140 the guy that

01:10:54.740 delivered the

01:10:55.500 Schwan guy right

01:10:56.240 that delivered the

01:10:56.960 frozen food that's

01:10:58.020 that's that's

01:10:58.840 beautiful Jerry in

01:11:00.020 Florida up next on

01:11:01.180 the Glenn Beck

01:11:01.860 program Jerry what's

01:11:03.740 the biggest story of

01:11:04.460 the year and maybe a

01:11:05.100 prediction for us

01:11:06.020 well I think the

01:11:08.140 the FBI colluding

01:11:10.400 with Twitter and

01:11:12.000 Facebook and all

01:11:13.520 the other tech

01:11:14.120 giants to

01:11:14.700 circumvent the

01:11:15.480 First Amendment

01:11:16.100 that's got to be

01:11:17.380 the biggest story I

01:11:18.180 mean if that's not

01:11:18.860 treason I don't know

01:11:20.160 what is as far as a

01:11:21.920 prediction and you

01:11:23.100 can take this to the

01:11:23.920 bank this isn't just

01:11:25.500 a prediction this is

01:11:26.740 what's going to

01:11:27.220 happen the

01:11:28.000 Republicans are

01:11:28.820 going to have all

01:11:29.460 kinds of hearings

01:11:30.180 they're going to

01:11:30.780 lay out everything

01:11:32.320 that the FBI and

01:11:33.940 the Democrats did and

01:11:35.440 it's going to be

01:11:36.020 people will say

01:11:36.680 there's no way

01:11:37.660 people aren't going

01:11:38.780 to jail and then

01:11:39.900 nothing will happen

01:11:41.200 in fact McConnell

01:11:42.440 will try to get

01:11:43.460 the people in in

01:11:44.820 the house arrested

01:11:46.260 for even asking

01:11:47.160 questions about this

01:11:48.320 Jerry I hate to

01:11:52.560 say it but I think

01:11:55.020 you might be pretty

01:11:56.120 accurate I might want

01:11:57.180 to buy a lottery

01:11:57.760 ticket or something

01:11:58.460 today while you're

01:11:59.000 at it Jerry Jerry

01:12:00.000 from Florida and I

01:12:02.140 knew you were going

01:12:02.660 to say that but this

01:12:03.900 this is just history

01:12:04.940 this is going to be a

01:12:06.040 great big dog and

01:12:07.100 pony show and my

01:12:08.940 prediction for 2024 is

01:12:10.920 Biden is going to

01:12:11.720 get rid of Harris

01:12:12.660 and bring Fetterman

01:12:13.580 in and they'll get

01:12:15.840 106 million votes

01:12:17.780 instead of the 80

01:12:18.500 million because the

01:12:19.500 Democrats always

01:12:20.220 double down

01:12:20.860 wow all right well

01:12:23.020 thank you my friend I

01:12:24.060 appreciate it there you

01:12:25.160 have it Jerry going

01:12:27.360 all in on predictions

01:12:28.760 and by the way I love

01:15:16.920 big stories today

01:15:17.760 some of the biggest stories

01:15:19.000 for 2022

01:15:19.880 I'm asking you

01:15:21.820 what you think

01:15:22.360 they might have been

01:15:23.040 and of course

01:15:25.120 we'll talk about those

01:15:26.020 we've got more phone calls

01:15:26.860 coming up

01:15:27.220 General Michael Flynn

01:15:28.320 joins us now

01:15:29.880 on the Glenn Beck program

01:15:31.540 General thanks for

01:15:32.380 thanks for joining us

01:15:33.580 we really appreciate it

01:15:34.880 thanks for having me

01:15:36.360 Justin

01:15:36.600 appreciate it

01:15:37.380 and happy new year

01:15:38.480 to you and your audience

01:15:39.540 thank you you too

01:15:40.740 General

01:15:41.220 let me ask you

01:15:42.240 I want to start with this

01:15:43.600 your background

01:15:44.280 I had a chance to

01:15:45.100 hear you speak

01:15:46.280 a couple of weeks back

01:15:47.280 and talk about a few things

01:15:48.840 you were talking with folks

01:15:49.720 who are in media

01:15:51.760 alternative media

01:15:52.620 covering things

01:15:53.600 and one of the things

01:15:55.040 that you guys were talking about

01:15:56.440 was discussing

01:15:57.380 how you can verify

01:16:00.260 when information is coming in

01:16:02.180 and I think this is

01:16:02.960 so important

01:16:03.820 there are a couple of

01:16:04.840 different reasons for it

01:16:05.780 but number one

01:16:06.540 there's so much out there

01:16:08.620 how about the real

01:16:10.120 disinformation

01:16:10.860 we hear that word

01:16:12.560 and phrase

01:16:13.180 thrown around so much

01:16:14.780 but we're in the midst

01:16:16.660 of a bit of a

01:16:17.540 psychological operation

01:16:18.960 it feels like

01:16:19.620 I know you've got

01:16:20.460 background there

01:16:21.680 you know Glenn always

01:16:23.560 tells us to do

01:16:24.240 our own homework

01:16:25.000 well how do you

01:16:25.760 when you do that

01:16:26.600 how do you know

01:16:27.560 what to believe

01:16:28.360 who do you trust

01:16:29.100 and how can you verify

01:16:31.000 some of the questions

01:16:31.960 I want to start with that

01:16:32.940 well

01:16:34.420 you know

01:16:35.640 the first thing

01:16:36.320 to do

01:16:36.940 is to really

01:16:37.700 understand

01:16:38.660 where you're getting

01:16:40.380 your information from

01:16:41.580 and I think that

01:16:42.460 a lot of people

01:16:43.140 you know

01:16:44.260 many many millions

01:16:45.500 in fact

01:16:45.840 actually still just

01:16:46.700 read the headlines

01:16:47.520 they don't go any further

01:16:49.540 than the first

01:16:50.160 or second paragraph

01:16:51.000 and they read

01:16:53.400 their

01:16:53.820 usually their hometown

01:16:55.440 news

01:16:57.240 so to speak

01:16:57.920 because people still

01:16:58.680 want to understand

01:16:59.380 you know

01:16:59.580 they want to know

01:17:00.060 who's doing well

01:17:01.660 in sports

01:17:02.320 or who's

01:17:02.900 what the obituaries are

01:17:04.260 but there's so much

01:17:05.740 information that is

01:17:06.720 now available

01:17:07.360 it's shows like this

01:17:08.560 and some of the

01:17:09.600 people that were

01:17:10.380 in that audience

01:17:11.180 that you and I

01:17:12.060 met at

01:17:12.560 about a month

01:17:13.800 or so ago

01:17:14.380 these

01:17:15.120 I call them the

01:17:15.800 indies

01:17:16.200 the independent

01:17:16.840 podcasters

01:17:17.680 that are out there

01:17:18.280 that have really

01:17:19.020 really risen

01:17:20.220 in the last couple

01:17:21.240 of years

01:17:21.900 citizen journalism

01:17:23.780 and

01:17:24.900 what has happened

01:17:26.480 is we've

01:17:27.000 we have a

01:17:28.320 a mainstream

01:17:29.420 media

01:17:30.380 in the country

01:17:31.520 that has really

01:17:33.240 just

01:17:33.700 been

01:17:34.520 been so

01:17:35.340 bought off

01:17:36.600 by the

01:17:37.060 corporate world

01:17:38.100 and they parrot

01:17:39.600 they just

01:17:40.740 they continue

01:17:41.360 to just parrot

01:17:42.100 sort of

01:17:43.040 this

01:17:43.320 this

01:17:43.760 psychological

01:17:44.600 operation

01:17:46.520 that we are

01:17:47.280 all finding

01:17:47.860 ourselves

01:17:48.460 within

01:17:49.020 and it is

01:17:50.220 truly a war

01:17:50.920 of narratives

01:17:51.520 and you know

01:17:52.080 and you know

01:17:53.520 if you want to

01:17:53.960 more precisely

01:17:55.160 define it

01:17:55.860 it's fifth

01:17:56.340 generation warfare

01:17:57.380 and it is a war

01:17:58.940 of narratives

01:17:59.560 and there are

01:18:00.440 a lot of

01:18:01.980 distractions

01:18:02.720 and I would

01:18:03.500 you know

01:18:03.880 it's sort of

01:18:04.440 you know

01:18:04.720 distractionization

01:18:05.740 if you will

01:18:06.320 if that's a word

01:18:07.000 and the idea

01:18:08.420 about distracting

01:18:09.660 the populace

01:18:10.780 to believe

01:18:11.400 something

01:18:12.000 that is not

01:18:13.340 necessarily true

01:18:14.480 is a very

01:18:16.580 real

01:18:17.200 endeavor

01:18:18.620 that's been

01:18:19.460 done to

01:18:20.040 the United States

01:18:21.000 particularly the U.S.

01:18:22.520 over the last

01:18:23.160 few years

01:18:23.900 and we

01:18:25.320 absolutely

01:18:25.960 have a

01:18:26.560 psychological

01:18:26.940 operation

01:18:27.780 being directed

01:18:28.420 against the

01:18:28.820 United States

01:18:29.300 of America

01:18:29.800 and that

01:18:30.180 psychological

01:18:30.520 operation

01:18:31.240 is in the

01:18:31.780 is in the

01:18:32.720 the form

01:18:33.360 of

01:18:33.880 of things

01:18:35.080 like

01:18:35.440 you know

01:18:36.220 trust the science

01:18:37.340 right

01:18:37.600 the phrase

01:18:38.220 trust the science

01:18:39.140 danger to

01:18:40.620 democracy

01:18:41.280 you know

01:18:41.760 this this

01:18:42.240 person

01:18:42.600 or this

01:18:43.080 act

01:18:43.780 is a danger

01:18:44.380 to democracy

01:18:45.240 when in fact

01:18:46.280 what we

01:18:46.720 what we're

01:18:47.640 starting to see

01:18:48.440 and what we're

01:18:48.840 learning

01:18:49.320 especially as

01:18:50.780 more brave

01:18:52.360 courageous

01:18:53.260 whistleblowers 1.00

01:18:54.220 or other

01:18:55.100 doctors

01:18:55.840 or other

01:18:56.780 religious leaders

01:18:58.060 or other

01:18:58.680 frankly

01:18:59.080 citizen leaders

01:19:00.100 stand up

01:19:01.160 and step up

01:19:01.900 and then

01:19:02.760 and start to

01:19:03.500 speak out

01:19:03.980 we're starting

01:19:04.480 to see

01:19:04.960 the truth

01:19:05.940 really rise

01:19:07.160 to the top

01:19:07.860 as it typically

01:19:08.620 does

01:19:09.120 and one of the

01:19:09.980 phrases that I

01:19:10.760 use Justin

01:19:11.260 is that the

01:19:11.740 truth fears

01:19:12.320 no enemies

01:19:12.900 and the truth

01:19:14.480 will always

01:19:15.120 come out

01:19:15.660 and you know

01:19:17.180 it's the whole

01:19:17.800 issue

01:19:18.120 if you

01:19:18.580 tell the truth

01:19:20.320 you don't have

01:19:20.820 to worry about

01:19:21.500 you know

01:19:22.120 the story

01:19:22.720 if you have to

01:19:23.500 tell the story

01:19:24.140 again

01:19:24.520 you know

01:19:25.260 a month from now

01:19:25.940 because it's

01:19:26.380 going to be

01:19:26.620 the same

01:19:26.980 story

01:19:27.320 whereas

01:19:27.680 you know

01:19:28.540 a lie

01:19:29.020 has to be

01:19:29.820 constantly

01:19:30.820 shaped

01:19:31.540 and formed

01:19:32.220 and that's

01:19:32.720 what's been

01:19:33.140 happening to

01:19:33.980 the American

01:19:35.080 people over

01:19:35.720 the last few

01:19:36.380 years

01:19:36.820 and this

01:19:37.740 it's really

01:19:39.080 a form of

01:19:40.600 sort of hybrid

01:19:41.440 irregular

01:19:42.100 unrestricted

01:19:43.400 warfare

01:19:43.740 but it's

01:19:44.460 at the end

01:19:44.920 of the day

01:19:45.340 it's what I

01:19:46.460 call fifth

01:19:47.020 generation

01:19:47.460 warfare

01:19:47.900 and we

01:19:49.680 we the people

01:19:50.920 of the United

01:19:51.320 States

01:19:51.880 are

01:19:52.900 we've been

01:19:54.760 we've been

01:19:56.400 talked to

01:19:57.000 as though

01:19:58.180 and caused

01:19:59.240 to have our

01:19:59.940 neighbors as

01:20:00.660 our enemies

01:20:01.200 when our

01:20:01.700 neighbors are

01:20:02.180 not our

01:20:02.640 enemies

01:20:03.000 you know

01:20:04.000 it's not

01:20:04.640 about Democrats

01:20:05.420 and Republicans

01:20:06.300 it's about

01:20:07.100 the American

01:20:08.400 way of life

01:20:09.360 and there is

01:20:10.400 a higher

01:20:11.020 order of

01:20:12.660 people

01:20:13.040 this sort

01:20:13.700 of globalist

01:20:14.400 elite crowd

01:20:15.180 that does

01:20:15.660 exist

01:20:16.060 and they're

01:20:16.360 very real

01:20:16.920 and they

01:20:17.260 and they're

01:20:17.940 very public

01:20:18.480 they're very

01:20:18.900 in our face

01:20:19.680 and they

01:20:20.600 have every

01:20:21.500 intent

01:20:22.040 on destroying

01:20:23.660 the fabric

01:20:24.320 of the United

01:20:24.980 States of

01:20:25.460 America

01:20:25.780 for their

01:20:26.260 own

01:20:26.580 for their

01:20:27.460 own

01:20:27.820 means

01:20:28.900 and I

01:20:30.480 think that

01:20:30.840 it's you

01:20:31.240 know we

01:20:31.520 I think

01:20:31.840 people have

01:20:32.300 to really

01:20:32.640 pay attention

01:20:33.160 to what

01:20:33.520 what is

01:20:33.980 happening

01:20:34.340 and and

01:20:35.380 the idea

01:20:35.860 about you

01:20:37.040 know like I

01:20:37.420 keep saying

01:20:38.020 going back to

01:20:38.680 fifth generation

01:20:39.240 warfare

01:20:39.680 you know it's

01:20:40.580 evolved from

01:20:41.900 the sort of

01:20:42.480 the overlap

01:20:43.000 of all the

01:20:44.000 different aspects

01:20:44.680 of hybrid

01:20:45.280 irregular

01:20:45.900 unrestricted

01:20:47.180 warfare

01:20:47.540 and the Chinese 0.83

01:20:48.720 wrote the

01:20:49.640 book on

01:20:50.060 unrestricted

01:20:51.160 warfare

01:20:51.500 and the

01:20:52.780 idea is to

01:20:54.140 affect the

01:20:55.240 belief system

01:20:55.960 of civilians

01:20:56.820 in a

01:20:57.460 in a

01:20:57.820 civilized

01:20:58.300 society

01:20:58.800 so we

01:21:00.140 just have

01:21:00.440 to be

01:21:00.680 cognitive

01:21:01.120 of it

01:21:01.520 we got

01:21:01.860 we have

01:21:02.140 to pay

01:21:02.380 attention

01:21:02.680 we have

01:21:02.980 to do

01:21:03.180 our own

01:21:03.500 research

01:21:03.900 and really

01:21:05.340 really be

01:21:06.160 discerning

01:21:06.920 as to what

01:21:07.380 we're going

01:21:07.660 to believe

01:21:08.140 General Michael

01:21:10.340 Flynn joins

01:21:11.040 us right now

01:21:11.760 you mentioned

01:21:12.440 before

01:21:13.640 General too

01:21:14.720 that when

01:21:15.860 you're getting

01:21:16.400 stories or

01:21:17.180 you're hearing

01:21:17.680 things from

01:21:18.200 people

01:21:18.580 and we're

01:21:18.920 spreading

01:21:19.280 obviously

01:21:19.980 it's one

01:21:20.300 of the

01:21:20.480 things that

01:21:20.780 we wanted

01:21:21.120 to do

01:21:21.680 is to

01:21:22.500 share

01:21:22.940 the stories

01:21:23.980 in a lot

01:21:24.260 of ways

01:21:24.480 that people

01:21:24.780 won't hear

01:21:25.280 anywhere else

01:21:25.780 one of those

01:21:26.180 stories is

01:21:26.700 with Twitter

01:21:27.160 right now

01:21:27.700 what's happening

01:21:28.540 inside

01:21:28.980 what's been

01:21:29.460 coming out

01:21:30.000 the things

01:21:30.840 that we have

01:21:31.220 suspected

01:21:31.640 for a while

01:21:32.240 now Elon Musk

01:21:33.040 is revealing

01:21:33.560 inside of

01:21:34.800 Twitter

01:21:35.040 not that he's

01:21:36.000 anyone who

01:21:36.900 should necessarily

01:21:38.500 be celebrated

01:21:39.800 in every way

01:21:40.720 but there is

01:21:41.640 some things

01:21:42.000 coming out

01:21:42.500 on Twitter

01:21:43.120 right now

01:21:43.520 but my

01:21:43.900 question is

01:21:44.360 people even

01:21:44.780 got to hear

01:21:45.140 these stories

01:21:45.660 unless we

01:21:46.820 share them

01:21:47.380 with each

01:21:47.860 other

01:21:48.140 so that's

01:21:49.220 a whole

01:21:49.480 other thing

01:21:50.000 but when

01:21:50.400 you're hearing

01:21:50.840 even some

01:21:51.320 of this

01:21:51.540 stuff

01:21:51.860 you know

01:21:53.360 you can hear

01:21:54.000 it from a

01:21:54.360 neighbor or

01:21:54.780 friend or

01:21:55.460 family member

01:21:56.040 or somebody

01:21:56.480 that you might

01:21:57.060 trust

01:21:57.400 how do you know

01:21:57.920 if they've got

01:21:58.540 the right and

01:21:59.500 the real

01:21:59.820 information

01:22:00.400 what do you

01:22:01.860 do there

01:22:02.340 well first

01:22:04.180 Twitter

01:22:04.800 and the

01:22:05.940 Twitter files

01:22:07.100 and all the

01:22:07.540 stuff that's

01:22:07.980 being exposed

01:22:08.660 not

01:22:09.960 no one

01:22:10.860 no one

01:22:11.800 that is

01:22:12.920 that is

01:22:13.440 breathing

01:22:13.900 should

01:22:14.600 should be

01:22:15.200 surprised

01:22:15.780 about what

01:22:16.380 we're learning

01:22:17.000 about what

01:22:17.900 was going

01:22:18.340 on at

01:22:18.920 Twitter

01:22:19.240 and probably

01:22:20.060 the same

01:22:20.540 thing

01:22:20.740 that's

01:22:20.900 going on

01:22:21.280 at Facebook

01:22:21.800 and some

01:22:22.860 of these

01:22:23.080 other large

01:22:23.900 social media

01:22:24.680 woke

01:22:25.540 corporations

01:22:26.300 so nobody

01:22:27.200 should be

01:22:27.620 surprised

01:22:28.040 the things

01:22:29.560 that we are

01:22:30.040 learning

01:22:30.480 and it's

01:22:31.520 basically

01:22:31.920 again it's

01:22:32.520 kind of back

01:22:32.920 to what I

01:22:33.220 just said

01:22:33.780 you know

01:22:34.660 we now

01:22:36.740 want

01:22:37.720 as Americans

01:22:39.020 we want

01:22:40.700 accountability

01:22:41.260 so I

01:22:42.620 appreciate

01:22:43.860 what Elon

01:22:44.580 Musk has 0.97

01:22:45.080 done

01:22:45.440 I would like

01:22:46.620 to see him

01:22:47.240 he should

01:22:47.680 hold

01:22:48.080 accountable

01:22:48.960 some of

01:22:49.380 these people

01:22:49.800 that were

01:22:50.160 at Twitter

01:22:50.660 and he

01:22:51.300 should bring

01:22:51.700 if he

01:22:52.860 has the

01:22:53.560 ability

01:22:53.960 to

01:22:54.760 at least

01:22:56.760 publicly

01:22:57.540 shame

01:22:58.020 them

01:22:58.220 he should

01:22:58.700 and he's

01:22:59.040 doing some

01:22:59.500 of that

01:22:59.740 and that's

01:23:00.080 fine

01:23:00.400 but we

01:23:01.220 now need

01:23:01.940 a person

01:23:03.840 like Elon

01:23:04.480 Musk 0.77

01:23:04.800 who has

01:23:05.280 extraordinary

01:23:05.880 influence

01:23:06.480 to start

01:23:07.460 to demand

01:23:08.140 from the

01:23:09.220 U.S.

01:23:09.580 government

01:23:09.860 that they

01:23:11.080 start to

01:23:11.700 investigate

01:23:12.180 what happened

01:23:13.500 because

01:23:13.980 you know

01:23:14.720 the one

01:23:15.080 thing that

01:23:15.480 we have

01:23:16.260 now learned

01:23:17.120 is that

01:23:17.900 the Federal

01:23:18.500 Bureau of

01:23:18.880 Investigation

01:23:19.400 you know

01:23:20.120 our illustrious

01:23:20.960 FBI

01:23:21.420 and elements

01:23:22.740 of our

01:23:23.060 DOJ

01:23:23.700 and elements

01:23:24.740 of our

01:23:25.220 intelligence

01:23:25.760 community

01:23:26.420 particularly

01:23:27.120 retired

01:23:27.880 you know

01:23:30.080 heads

01:23:30.440 of the

01:23:30.820 intel

01:23:31.500 community

01:23:32.020 the

01:23:32.240 Department

01:23:32.520 of Defense

01:23:33.060 you know

01:23:33.820 the infamous

01:23:34.520 whatever

01:23:34.860 was 51

01:23:35.660 that signed

01:23:36.640 off on the

01:23:37.080 letter saying

01:23:37.640 that the

01:23:37.940 Hunter Biden

01:23:38.500 laptop

01:23:38.900 was

01:23:39.240 Russian

01:23:40.780 misinformation

01:23:42.860 we have

01:23:43.960 now learned

01:23:44.460 excuse my

01:23:45.060 Irish

01:23:45.500 but we've

01:23:46.320 now learned

01:23:46.720 that it's

01:23:47.020 all

01:23:47.260 and we've

01:23:48.480 always known

01:23:48.920 that

01:23:49.060 I've

01:23:49.300 known

01:23:49.480 that

01:23:49.720 the majority

01:23:50.540 of people

01:23:50.940 have always

01:23:51.360 known it

01:23:51.700 now we

01:23:52.140 have it

01:23:52.520 for real

01:23:53.300 there's no

01:23:54.040 doubt

01:23:54.360 it's black

01:23:55.100 and white

01:23:55.480 so now

01:23:56.500 what we

01:23:56.920 should be

01:23:57.240 demanding

01:23:57.720 is we

01:23:58.420 should be

01:23:58.980 demanding

01:23:59.360 accountability

01:24:00.020 and frankly

01:24:01.840 here's where

01:24:02.860 here's where

01:24:03.780 we're at

01:24:04.440 we are not

01:24:05.440 going to see

01:24:06.180 accountability

01:24:06.840 by the

01:24:08.980 Department of

01:24:09.500 by this

01:24:09.960 Department of

01:24:10.480 Justice

01:24:10.740 under this

01:24:11.320 administration

01:24:11.740 we are not

01:24:12.600 going to

01:24:13.080 I don't want

01:24:13.560 people to

01:24:13.980 think yep

01:24:14.880 they need to

01:24:15.560 hold these

01:24:15.880 people accountable

01:24:16.540 you know

01:24:17.340 this is where

01:24:18.140 this is where

01:24:19.200 because we did

01:24:19.900 go through a

01:24:20.560 recent election

01:24:21.380 and we

01:24:22.580 do have

01:24:23.080 a new

01:24:23.740 House of

01:24:24.280 Representatives

01:24:24.820 and maybe

01:24:25.940 maybe the

01:24:26.680 the unit

01:24:27.960 party will

01:24:28.800 will suddenly

01:24:30.120 wake up

01:24:30.780 in Washington

01:24:31.660 D.C.

01:24:32.080 and start

01:24:32.500 to hold

01:24:32.840 people

01:24:33.140 accountable

01:24:33.540 because the

01:24:34.080 House

01:24:34.340 under new

01:24:35.460 leadership

01:24:35.840 they can

01:24:36.480 they can

01:24:37.100 go after

01:24:37.540 people

01:24:37.920 they can

01:24:38.300 call them

01:24:38.780 all in

01:24:39.260 I've been

01:24:39.940 subpoenaed

01:24:40.780 by the

01:24:41.240 January 6th

01:24:43.180 unselect

01:24:43.620 committee

01:24:44.020 you know

01:24:44.700 I mean

01:24:45.300 they just

01:24:45.640 released

01:24:46.460 the litany

01:24:47.020 of people

01:24:47.460 who were

01:24:47.800 subpoenaed

01:24:48.260 yesterday

01:24:48.700 so let's

01:24:50.160 have a

01:24:50.840 tit for

01:24:51.220 tat

01:24:51.580 but let's

01:24:52.440 hold people

01:24:53.080 accountable

01:24:53.580 even if

01:24:54.700 accountability

01:24:55.280 is only

01:24:56.560 publicly

01:24:57.340 bringing these

01:24:59.480 people in

01:25:00.020 in front of

01:25:00.620 in front of

01:25:01.200 cameras

01:25:01.620 I don't want

01:25:02.660 any more

01:25:03.080 behind the

01:25:03.820 door nonsense

01:25:04.680 the American

01:25:05.800 people don't

01:25:06.520 deserve this

01:25:07.160 those people

01:25:08.300 in Washington

01:25:09.060 work for us

01:25:10.040 okay this is a

01:25:11.240 republic form of

01:25:12.460 government

01:25:12.800 they work for

01:25:13.800 us I want

01:25:14.580 I want total

01:25:15.760 transparency

01:25:16.580 in everything

01:25:17.660 that at least

01:25:18.380 the House of

01:25:18.920 Representatives

01:25:19.400 is going to

01:25:20.000 do

01:25:20.260 because we

01:25:21.100 know that

01:25:21.480 the Senate

01:25:21.880 is still

01:25:22.360 controlled by

01:25:23.080 the by

01:25:23.840 the left

01:25:24.340 and frankly

01:25:25.200 you know

01:25:25.740 for somebody

01:25:27.180 who in

01:25:27.920 terms of

01:25:28.320 Twitter files

01:25:29.080 I mean

01:25:29.720 yeah great

01:25:30.520 I'm all for

01:25:31.700 it I want

01:25:32.100 and I guarantee

01:25:33.100 more stuff is

01:25:33.820 going to come

01:25:34.200 out and it's

01:25:34.700 ugly but we

01:25:35.820 just had I

01:25:36.360 think it was

01:25:36.720 what 16

01:25:37.920 Republican

01:25:38.520 senators sign

01:25:39.360 off on a

01:25:40.240 1.7 trillion

01:25:41.540 dollar you know

01:25:43.260 they call it the

01:25:43.840 ominous bill

01:25:44.520 the ominous bill

01:25:45.340 not the

01:25:45.660 that's going to

01:25:46.980 destroy our

01:25:47.640 economy that's

01:25:48.360 the next nail

01:25:49.000 in the economic

01:25:49.700 coffin of

01:25:50.260 America and

01:25:51.480 and now

01:25:52.300 we're now

01:25:52.900 we're at

01:25:53.260 about 110

01:25:54.060 billion dollars

01:25:54.920 from my

01:25:55.320 my account

01:25:56.120 to money

01:25:57.680 money US

01:25:58.640 taxpayer dollars

01:25:59.400 going over to

01:26:00.140 Ukraine and

01:26:01.460 trust me folks

01:26:02.560 Ukraine is one 0.98

01:26:03.780 of the biggest

01:26:04.220 distractions going

01:26:05.720 on right now

01:26:06.380 talk about a

01:26:07.000 war of narratives

01:26:07.760 and a war of

01:26:08.280 distractions and

01:26:09.400 fifth generation

01:26:10.060 warfare distract

01:26:11.100 over here with

01:26:12.700 this potential

01:26:13.540 war and a

01:26:14.340 potential for

01:26:14.920 nuclear war in

01:26:15.980 eastern Europe

01:26:16.700 which we have

01:26:17.180 no business

01:26:17.660 being part of

01:26:18.340 and yet we've

01:26:19.160 got an invasion

01:26:20.040 going on on

01:26:21.220 our southern

01:26:21.640 border we have

01:26:22.180 a chemical war

01:26:23.140 in the in the

01:26:24.180 form of fentanyl

01:26:26.260 killing people

01:26:27.120 across this

01:26:27.920 country and we

01:26:28.860 have a biological

01:26:29.600 war because we're

01:26:30.480 about to have

01:26:31.020 China send us 1.00

01:26:32.600 over another

01:26:33.160 you know China

01:26:43.140 breath the

01:26:44.380 American people

01:26:45.320 need to

01:26:45.820 understand that

01:26:46.520 the leadership

01:26:47.140 in Washington

01:26:48.280 D.C. is

01:26:49.360 inept

01:26:50.480 incompetent

01:26:51.440 and corrupt

01:26:52.120 and we are

01:26:52.940 not going to

01:27:09.880 committee we

01:27:13.040 there's some

01:27:13.440 things that

01:27:16.320 hour ago

01:27:16.680 some people

01:27:40.560 Michael Flynn is

01:27:41.500 back with us now

01:27:46.580 final show of the

01:27:47.760 year

01:27:48.140 General Flynn just

01:27:49.700 read this on

01:27:50.820 Twitter I want to

01:27:51.560 get your take on

01:27:52.420 this it's it's

01:27:53.660 from Sean at

01:27:54.700 Davis at the

01:27:55.480 Federalist

01:27:55.960 the tweet on the

01:27:57.680 the afternoon of

01:27:59.020 January 6th Ray

01:28:00.220 Epps texted his

01:28:01.340 nephew about the

01:28:02.080 events at the

01:28:02.660 Capitol I was in

01:28:03.560 the front with a

01:28:04.480 few others he

01:28:05.100 said I also

01:28:06.580 orchestrated it

01:28:07.560 we've got this

01:28:08.240 as part of the

01:28:08.860 the interview I

01:28:10.700 guess that was

01:28:11.180 done and the

01:28:11.820 deposition here

01:28:12.780 what is your

01:28:13.900 take on that we

01:28:14.660 never really heard

01:28:15.540 much about who

01:28:16.260 this Ray Epps

01:28:16.840 guy was and

01:28:18.940 you know a lot

01:28:20.540 of folks have

01:28:20.980 been pretty silent

01:28:22.140 on this imagine

01:28:23.200 this is something

01:28:23.800 that we ought to

01:28:24.280 know more about

01:28:25.140 chances we

01:28:26.180 wonder why we

01:28:26.860 he was never

01:28:27.440 charged and why

01:28:28.140 he's the only

01:28:28.760 person whom

01:28:29.400 Kinzinger and

01:28:30.120 Cheney will

01:28:31.620 defend what

01:28:33.100 what's your take

01:28:33.780 on that oh

01:28:35.080 there's others

01:28:35.500 that they'll

01:28:35.880 defend too so

01:28:36.620 my take on this

01:28:37.380 entire thing for

01:28:38.360 January 6th is

01:28:39.240 this is a

01:28:39.700 complete and

01:28:40.360 total setup and

01:28:42.040 and there are so

01:28:42.960 many people that

01:28:43.820 I've spoken to

01:28:44.540 over the last

01:28:45.160 couple of years

01:28:45.840 that were there

01:28:46.940 that day and

01:28:48.540 I've seen I've

01:28:49.440 seen videos and

01:28:50.380 I've seen pictures

01:28:51.160 and photos of like

01:28:52.920 a lot of Americans

01:28:54.000 have seen of

01:28:55.240 people being

01:28:55.900 escorted in by

01:28:56.760 cops of you

01:28:58.700 know thugs

01:28:59.340 dressed in black

01:29:00.340 and and masked

01:29:02.380 up and agitating

01:29:04.060 these are things

01:29:05.500 that that are

01:29:06.880 easily put

01:29:07.980 together easily

01:29:08.840 organized in terms

01:29:09.920 of you know when

01:29:10.540 you know you're

01:29:11.160 going to have a

01:29:11.600 big crowd all you

01:29:12.800 got to do is have

01:29:13.480 a small group of

01:29:14.360 well-trained well

01:29:15.780 organized agitators

01:29:16.980 and you get them in

01:29:17.720 there and you do

01:29:18.500 you know you do

01:29:19.100 certain things and

01:29:19.780 then and then you

01:29:20.660 allow for others to

01:29:21.780 be part of it and

01:29:23.300 a guy like Epps

01:29:24.400 is one and

01:29:25.300 there's a few

01:29:25.740 others who have

01:29:26.840 yet to see the

01:29:27.860 the inside of a

01:29:29.420 cell and and

01:29:31.340 yet we have

01:29:31.960 people sitting in

01:29:33.300 prison still and I

01:29:34.820 and and many of

01:29:35.620 them haven't even

01:29:36.140 seen you know a

01:29:37.120 judge yet or

01:29:37.700 haven't been charged

01:29:38.420 properly yet so

01:29:39.420 you know I'm not

01:29:41.100 going to take away

01:29:41.780 from anybody that

01:29:42.480 broke a window or

01:29:43.700 or went inside and

01:29:45.200 did some stupid

01:29:45.960 thing inside and

01:29:46.800 damaged you know

01:29:47.500 damaged property

01:29:48.180 whatever like that

01:29:48.980 so I mean it's you

01:29:50.040 know some of that

01:29:50.500 stuff happen but

01:29:51.600 but this entire

01:29:52.540 thing is a setup

01:29:53.660 and and I think

01:29:55.200 that once if the

01:29:56.980 house if the

01:29:58.380 house of

01:29:58.700 representatives the

01:29:59.340 new house of

01:29:59.860 representatives when

01:30:00.460 they take over if

01:30:01.300 they have the guts

01:30:02.020 and we'll see we'll

01:30:03.140 see if they have the

01:30:03.720 guts I'm not sure if

01:30:04.720 we have the right

01:30:05.480 people in there but

01:30:06.480 if they have the

01:30:07.000 guts then maybe

01:30:08.040 they'll they'll take

01:30:09.040 responsibility and

01:30:10.380 they'll really start

01:30:11.260 to dig into that and

01:30:12.720 they'll tie it to the

01:30:13.840 2020 election rigging of

01:30:16.460 the 2020 election

01:30:17.380 they'll tie it to the

01:30:18.440 the the way that

01:30:20.780 the FBI and the

01:30:21.900 DOJ because I don't

01:30:22.740 want to just blame the

01:30:23.400 FBI because the FBI

01:30:24.260 is a subordinate of

01:30:25.080 the DOJ but the how

01:30:27.040 the FBI and parts of

01:30:28.180 the DOJ help to

01:30:29.760 manipulate the

01:30:30.980 misinformation prior

01:30:32.240 to the 2020 election

01:30:33.460 in order to rig the

01:30:34.860 election I mean you

01:30:36.160 know I joke about

01:30:37.120 this and I don't mean

01:30:38.540 to joke about it

01:30:39.140 because it's very

01:30:39.720 serious but I

01:30:40.720 know I talk to

01:30:41.420 groups of people I

01:30:42.140 always ask you know

01:30:42.880 how many of you have

01:30:44.620 have or bought a

01:30:45.840 build back better

01:30:47.000 baseball hat at

01:30:48.620 Christmas time for

01:30:49.460 your family right

01:30:50.500 if 81 million

01:30:51.260 people yeah then

01:30:54.300 there's at least 40

01:30:55.720 million baseball hats

01:30:56.800 out there I mean

01:30:57.320 let's just give

01:30:58.260 there's nobody

01:30:59.600 buying better

01:31:01.400 baseball hats or

01:31:02.340 build back better

01:31:03.340 bumper stickers or

01:31:04.240 t-shirts because it

01:31:05.820 doesn't exist it was

01:31:06.860 all fake and the

01:31:08.540 guy that's in the

01:31:09.160 White House I call

01:31:09.860 him Uncle Joe you

01:31:11.240 know he is he is a

01:31:13.020 he is a really I

01:31:14.920 mean we can say

01:31:15.560 what we want in

01:31:16.340 terms of the

01:31:16.860 constitutional process

01:31:18.180 that got Biden and

01:31:20.880 Harrison to the

01:31:21.640 White House but now

01:31:22.860 we know through the

01:31:23.800 through the Twitter

01:31:24.460 files that now we

01:31:25.940 know that the entire

01:31:26.900 thing was a setup and

01:31:29.020 there and the 2020

01:31:29.980 election was rigged so

01:31:31.800 who who's going to

01:31:33.240 hold anybody's feet to

01:31:34.460 the fire

01:31:35.000 general do that it's

01:31:36.600 supposed to be an

01:31:37.200 independent department

01:31:38.040 of justice and

01:31:39.100 frankly right now

01:31:39.880 Justin we don't have

01:31:40.660 that general I don't

01:31:42.400 know if you've got the

01:32:17.000 his own but one of the

01:32:18.560 questions that that I'd

01:32:33.400 name comes up around this

01:32:35.160 quite a bit so do you

01:33:45.700 Glenn back program general

01:33:50.500 appreciate you for joining

01:33:51.560 us today and talking about

01:33:53.120 some of the different

01:33:54.100 things that you've shared

01:33:54.840 with us one of the

01:33:55.440 questions folks are

01:33:57.200 wondering is this question

01:33:59.460 of one of the phrases that

01:34:01.600 we hear quite often which

01:34:02.700 is you know trust the plan

01:34:04.220 is there a plan and should

01:34:07.120 we trust it I've heard you

01:34:08.660 talk about this before and

01:34:09.840 I thought maybe it'd be a

01:34:10.800 good idea to have you

01:34:11.880 uh explore well yes so

01:34:14.120 before I forget I just want

01:34:15.600 to say to you Justin thanks

01:34:17.100 for having me on and to and

01:34:18.220 to you and the entire Glenn

01:34:19.940 Beck uh the audience just

01:34:22.460 had my wish everybody a

01:34:23.860 really happy 2023 now in this

01:34:26.540 issue of trust the plan there's

01:34:28.760 a lot of a lot of uh of

01:34:31.440 noise out there uh in in

01:34:33.740 from a lot of these

01:34:34.840 independent podcasters and a

01:34:36.860 lot of people in social media

01:34:38.660 that talk about this trust

01:34:39.680 the plan the know what the

01:34:41.420 plan is Justin it's you and

01:34:42.860 I on this show today talking

01:34:45.160 about what America is you

01:34:47.560 know what's good about

01:34:48.300 America what is great about

01:34:49.760 America and what do we need

01:34:50.940 to do about the kinds of

01:34:52.000 things that we are facing

01:34:53.020 that's the plan the people of

01:34:54.880 this country are the plan the

01:34:56.560 people of this country have

01:34:57.600 always been the plan the

01:34:58.640 founders of this country

01:34:59.620 designed this country from

01:35:01.160 the bottom up and and it's

01:35:03.460 always about involvement

01:35:04.800 citizen involvement that's

01:35:06.340 the plan all this nonsense

01:35:08.040 that you hear from people

01:35:09.380 about well there's a plan and

01:35:10.920 you know Trump is in charge

01:35:12.180 and the military is in charge

01:35:13.300 that it's all nonsense it's

01:35:14.980 all bs if if that were the

01:35:17.380 case if there were some

01:35:18.300 miraculous thing that was

01:35:20.180 going to happen why would we

01:35:21.560 allow our country whoever so 1.00

01:35:23.240 whoever's whoever wrote that

01:35:24.920 stupid plan and whoever whoever 0.83

01:35:27.200 you know talks about it why

01:35:29.000 would we allow our country to

01:35:30.200 be I mean just utterly

01:35:32.160 destroyed economically

01:35:33.780 financially you know physically

01:35:36.940 with this invasion of our

01:35:38.460 southern border I mean there's

01:35:40.440 so many things that are that

01:35:42.540 that are happening to this

01:35:43.720 country in the last two years

01:35:44.840 alone and so if there was a

01:35:47.340 plan boy it's a really you

01:35:49.420 know I don't want to use any

01:35:50.500 foul language on your show but

01:35:52.060 it's a it's a lousy plan so as

01:35:54.800 far as I can as far as I'm

01:35:56.180 concerned I'm the plan you're

01:35:58.300 the plan the people in this

01:35:59.780 country are the plan and I

01:36:00.740 tell people stand up step up

01:36:02.720 and speak up and get involved

01:36:04.300 in your communities like you've

01:36:05.360 never been involved in it in

01:36:06.640 them before but you know the

01:36:08.460 plan the plan is for is for

01:36:10.700 moms principally women who have

01:36:13.820 children and are trying to raise

01:36:15.080 children and they're getting

01:36:15.880 involved in this in this madness

01:36:17.840 of critical race theory being

01:36:19.200 taught in our schools or this

01:36:20.660 idea of transgender you know

01:36:23.580 studies in elementary school or

01:36:26.220 this idea of of allowing

01:36:28.720 children to make decisions about

01:36:31.100 abortions in this country still

01:36:33.220 even though the the supreme

01:36:34.800 court finally ruled after 50

01:36:36.540 years that you know that it was a

01:36:38.900 state's rights issue and people

01:36:40.300 need to be thinking about it I

01:36:41.820 mean it's all these aspects of

01:36:43.420 who we are that people need to

01:36:44.740 understand and so you know we

01:36:47.400 have to sort of stop hiding

01:36:49.800 behind this mask of political

01:36:51.620 psychosis that we find that it's

01:36:54.020 just totally consuming us and you

01:36:56.800 know we are a a principled

01:36:58.640 nation we're a structured nation

01:37:00.200 we still have elements of the rule

01:37:02.660 of law it doesn't feel that way

01:37:04.500 coming out of Washington DC I want

01:37:07.580 people to really to cherish the fact

01:37:10.940 that we have local law enforcement

01:37:12.740 still in our country we're the only

01:37:14.140 country on the planet that has that

01:37:15.640 so I want people to understand

01:37:17.700 that it's you and I and how and

01:37:22.000 what you know how we take control

01:37:23.640 of our lives and how we get in in

01:37:26.340 how we get involved in our

01:37:28.920 communities at the local level and I

01:37:31.460 use the phrase local action equals a

01:37:33.780 national impact but it's it's now now

01:37:36.820 is the time I'm actually I feel

01:37:39.580 blessed to be alive right now during

01:37:42.880 this very historic time in our

01:37:44.340 country I have been through five

01:37:47.160 lifetimes in the last five years you

01:37:49.300 know with all the madness that I have

01:37:51.660 gone through but I'm still standing

01:37:53.620 here and I'm still standing here

01:37:54.800 because of principally because of a

01:37:57.020 couple of things but number one is my

01:37:58.700 faith and number two is the strength

01:38:01.380 of my family and those are the two

01:38:03.780 things that I will continue to fight

01:38:06.340 for when I you know sort of move out

01:38:09.580 smartly and and and go forward in life

01:38:12.660 and I think that that's what I want

01:38:14.380 people your listeners to do and and as

01:38:16.720 we go into the year 2023 this is going

01:38:19.260 to be a very very exciting year and we

01:38:21.640 have the American people for all the

01:38:23.920 listeners that are in politics that are

01:38:26.100 in some office right now state or federal

01:38:28.540 office for all of those that are

01:38:30.800 listening to this show trust me the

01:38:33.360 American people have high expectations 0.86

01:38:35.720 and you better perform so again I just

01:38:38.860 want to say you Justin and and to Glenn

01:38:41.000 and your audience I wish everybody a

01:38:43.140 happy new year and Godspeed general

01:39:30.460 we're going through general Flynn thank

01:39:33.400 you sir appreciate you God bless

01:39:34.840 up to you that it is a hard sometimes it

01:39:41.840 is hard to hear the truth right but a

01:39:44.480 couple of weeks back when I saw the

01:39:45.940 general speak and I and sometimes the

01:39:48.800 truth just it just man even though it's

01:39:53.620 tough to hear it it is refreshing there's

01:39:57.320 like an ice-cold sip of water on a hot

01:40:03.260 summer day especially in the desert of

01:40:05.960 truth that we're waiting through these

01:40:09.480 days but I heard the general comment and

01:40:12.620 I heard particularly that bit that he

01:40:16.640 that he mentioned about the truth and I

01:40:18.080 immediately when I came back I shared with

01:40:21.400 some folks in my audience I said look I

01:40:23.780 got some things to tell you there are a

01:40:26.040 lot of folks and I hear these questions

01:40:27.740 that I would trust the plan and that this

01:40:29.640 is gonna happen and that's gonna I see

01:40:31.420 and hear everything because people send

01:40:32.540 it all to me and I appreciate that and

01:40:34.120 one of the things I try to do though is

01:40:36.520 use a bit of discernment yes there's

01:40:38.320 experience and the wisdom and things like

01:40:40.320 that but a bit of discernment that's

01:40:44.420 that's just part of my faith but to try and

01:40:46.580 understand what's true and what is not and

01:40:50.200 when I heard him talk and particularly say

01:40:54.080 look there is no plan you got your

01:40:56.500 popcorn and all that this is designed to

01:40:58.520 make you sit on the couch and and not be

01:41:00.740 participants and active in what has to

01:41:04.520 happen in order to turn the tide here in

01:41:07.860 this country and we need you you are the

01:41:10.160 plan in fact the founders as he just

01:41:12.040 mentioned the founders made you the plan

01:41:16.820 in fact I believe God has a plan

01:41:22.440 and you and I and everyone else are a

01:41:29.880 part of it we are called to walk in

01:41:35.160 whatever capacity that it that it is

01:41:38.500 that that we are uniquely designed created

01:41:43.600 to walk in it the question is will we

01:41:51.720 you know each one of us has our own set

01:41:55.200 of gifts we each have our own set of

01:41:57.360 special skills maybe experiences that

01:42:01.940 we've developed or gone through through

01:42:03.140 life that prepared us for this very

01:42:04.800 moment you and I have been uniquely

01:42:09.780 prepared and called for this very moment

01:42:15.100 and as he just pointed out general

01:42:17.580 Michael foot just pointed out I think

01:42:18.980 a very good great way to look at things

01:42:22.260 here maybe I know I know that she a look 1.00

01:42:32.460 at things and you certainly don't get

01:42:33.900 excited but maybe we ought to get excited

01:42:35.940 that we are here for such a time as this

01:42:40.100 that we have the opportunity to show up

01:42:44.180 at this moment in this nation's history at

01:42:48.400 this moment in time and walk out through

01:42:53.300 our faith whatever it is that we might be

01:42:55.780 called to do now I know that is easier

01:42:58.640 said than done but I pray that God would

01:43:04.480 give me you and the rest of us the

01:43:08.580 courage to do it back in just a moment

01:43:15.220 Barkley and for Beck on the Glenn Beck

01:43:17.080 program the Glenn Beck program

01:43:19.740 what an honor it is to always be able to

01:43:41.860 spend time with you the best audience I

01:43:45.480 think that there is and I gotta be honest

01:43:48.340 some of the smartest so that's why I

01:43:51.080 thought we'd wrap it today with some of

01:43:52.460 these predictions for the new year and

01:43:54.600 then maybe the biggest story of 20

01:43:56.780 22 your thoughts on that I got an email

01:43:59.820 by the way you want to send me a message

01:44:01.120 or we can just connect either way

01:44:02.660 Justin Barclay B-A-R-C-L-A-Y.com

01:44:06.460 JustinBarclay.com great place for us to do

01:44:10.060 that we're now hearing breaking news on

01:44:12.040 the the story out of the Idaho the

01:44:14.580 suspect and the college kid Slade

01:44:16.840 they've arrested a suspect they're gonna

01:44:19.300 have a news conference press conference

01:44:20.980 this afternoon 1 p.m pacific the latest on

01:44:24.740 that stick with the blaze.com for the

01:44:26.260 details but Jason says the biggest story

01:44:29.340 not report of the year is the assault on

01:44:31.120 the trucking industry specifically the

01:44:32.880 independent trucker California passed

01:44:34.480 their law ending lease purchase

01:44:36.340 contracts pushing drivers to either leave

01:44:39.140 the state find a company position or pay

01:44:41.220 higher cost to buy a truck outright soaring

01:44:43.660 diesel costs California banning the

01:44:46.120 purchase of diesel vehicles by 2035 the

01:44:48.660 FMCSA announcing they will be announcing

01:44:51.400 rules on speed limiters on trucks in

01:44:53.880 June or July and my prediction is once

01:44:57.020 speed limiters and are introduced the

01:44:59.100 fabricated driver shortage will actually

01:45:01.100 come true happy Schwanzer Jason says I

01:45:06.560 know it's nothing so hey by the way

01:45:08.360 nothing sounds happy about any of that

01:45:10.360 all right Diane appreciate you holding

01:45:15.540 thank you so much Diane but I think

01:45:17.060 you're you've got one of the probably one

01:45:19.160 of the biggest stories of the year too and

01:45:20.600 I wanted to make sure that we got you on

01:45:22.920 Diane in Oregon you're on the Glenn Beck

01:45:24.580 program thank you so much I'm so excited

01:45:27.600 to talk to you I guess the overturn of

01:45:30.400 Roe versus Wade is the biggest the biggest

01:45:33.880 issue of of the the decade I believe and my

01:45:39.660 prediction is more of a need we need after

01:45:43.060 abortion care for post-abortive men and

01:45:45.880 women there are 64 million babies lost

01:45:50.540 they go to heaven but the men and the

01:45:52.980 women are stuck with an unresolved 1.00

01:45:55.840 complicated grief because they are they

01:46:00.020 are intimately involved with the loss of

01:46:02.420 their children by choice yeah I'm one of

01:46:08.980 the things that is is is not widely known

01:46:12.060 is pregnancy resource centers often do

01:46:15.840 after abortion care in the form of Bible 0.81

01:46:20.320 studies and just walking alongside the

01:46:23.660 women in their grief and their loss by

01:46:26.320 choice and with with 64 million babies

01:46:30.780 loss that's 128 million moms and dads and

01:46:35.340 um then there's 60 percent of those

01:46:39.760 abortions are coerced that's how many of 1.00

01:46:43.300 those 14 year olds were taken by grandma

01:46:46.200 and granddad who are looking back over

01:46:50.020 their lives and saying my god what did I do

01:46:53.980 you know I I can't imagine I pray for

01:46:57.000 those folks Diane you make a really uh I

01:47:00.380 think a real powerful point I know folks

01:47:02.100 that are dealing with that but through

01:47:04.500 their faith and and through those some of

01:47:06.440 those ministries they've been able to get

01:47:08.440 some healing and I I appreciate your call

01:47:10.700 this morning I think that's something that

01:47:12.200 we all need to to keep an eye on uh

01:47:14.740 particularly uh moving forward um but

01:47:17.560 um but great great points Garrett in

01:47:20.000 Texas predictions for the new year and

01:47:23.260 biggest story of the year Garrett you're

01:47:24.700 on the Olympic program I'm actually in

01:47:26.840 Minnesota but it's okay okay we kind of

01:47:29.720 look like Texas we're smaller boot though but

01:47:31.580 anyways um no uh I think I I predict that

01:47:39.680 the Republicans will grow some kahunas and 1.00

01:47:43.880 cut the spending that Joe Biden's outrageously

01:47:47.540 the 1.7 trillion dollar bill that they

01:47:51.080 just passed before yeah and um yeah I mean

01:47:54.940 they need to definitely I predict that

01:47:57.720 they're gonna grow some kahunas though and

01:47:59.300 put an end to it because that's just

01:48:01.140 outrageous Garrett thanks for the call

01:48:03.000 Tom in Missouri we'll go to him next

01:48:05.340 biggest story of the year Tom what do you

01:48:07.060 think well actually I got two give me one

01:48:11.780 because we got 30 seconds all right well

01:48:14.900 okay so I would say that uh voter

01:48:17.380 suppression and and keating going on just

01:48:20.720 like the Arizona governor yeah I think

01:48:23.040 there's mounds of evidence but yet it

01:48:25.440 seems like nobody wants to listen anything

01:48:27.540 anything gonna come out of that you

01:48:29.380 think you know what I'm not sure and I

01:48:34.220 predict I predict this the next year that
