American financing is here. That's a great investment tool with your home, especially right now. And I mean, right now. Home values are up about 20 percent. That's a really big deal because it means you're able to access that equity as cash as long as that house, you know, keeps adding the the equity into it.
00:00:23.800
It's up 20 percent. So you could take a loan out on part of that or really all of it. But you would take part of it and pay off your credit cards. Do not take a loan and do some risky investment or spend it all. Please use this and pay down your high interest credit cards.

It's a new day. It's a new day. I'm trying to raise. What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:02.300
Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Last night on television, I did the border bloodbath, and it is a bloodbath.
00:02:12.360
I'm going to go over some of it today. But I'm telling you, this is what's happening just with fentanyl. Just with fentanyl. It is a weapon of mass destruction.
00:02:25.680
Our border is completely out of control. It's worse than I thought it was.
00:02:31.880
And then what's happening in Congress? They're debating an abortion bill that's not just reversing Roe vs. Wade.
00:02:44.200
It would have made abortion on demand at any time all across the country.
00:02:51.740
It is not in step with the American people. It was defeated because Joe Manchin stepped up to the plate and said no.
00:03:01.040
Plus, today, the Senate is voting on another $40 billion to go to Ukraine.
00:03:42.320
Do you know how many billions Russia spends on their defense every year?
00:03:58.320
almost the entire year's budget of the Russian military.
00:04:14.040
possibly somebody I really like that is running,
00:04:23.320
We have to have the person that is really buttoned up in Pennsylvania.
00:04:31.420
What are you doing today to help others out that need it?
00:04:37.880
You know, a friend of mine, he was actually my bishop,
00:04:51.540
Because I didn't grow up in a family that had any money, you know,
00:04:55.340
and I don't know anything other than putting money in the basket at church
00:05:01.660
I mean, my parents probably did, but I don't know.
00:05:09.940
So who's giving the most amount of that dollar to people
00:05:16.960
I can tell you Tunnel to Towers fits that 100%.
00:05:22.520
When a first responder or a military service member doesn't come home,
00:05:26.360
they take care of the mortgage to take the pressure off.
00:05:36.980
a smart house that helps them function the way you and I function.
00:05:55.200
Okay, so do we need to go on the abortion bill yesterday?
00:06:16.620
What, so we're going to do it because 50 say yes?
00:06:22.880
I mean, there is no bipartisan on anything anymore.
00:06:30.580
I can't believe I'm saying that, but thank God for him
00:06:43.160
This is abortion on demand all the way to the time of birth.
00:07:24.920
oh, it's even worse with Congress because they set the rules.
00:38:12.960
preparewithglenn.com go to preparewithglenn.com
00:38:26.220
food kit right now my patriot supply is somebody
00:38:29.560
that i was in business with for a very very long
00:39:21.860
it's being routed it's not being routed directly
00:39:24.240
uh to ukraine we're not writing to the you uh the
00:39:28.340
ukrainian military it's going through the state
00:39:32.920
department and it's all being labeled as like for
00:39:37.000
food insecurity the hell does that even mean is
00:39:41.140
that like the schools need money for covid and then
00:39:44.340
it actually goes to sel and crt i don't trust these people with a penny
00:39:50.740
and 40 billion dollars can change a lot of stuff
00:40:06.600
then you know what we could probably do it better than the ukrainians could
00:40:10.720
why are we sending the almost the entire budget
00:40:14.540
of russia's military for a year over to ukraine
00:40:18.740
you want to do it take care of it yourself and declare war it'd be over
00:40:25.300
then don't send all of that money and our military expertise and
00:40:31.240
everything else over to ukraine i care deeply about the people in ukraine
00:40:35.960
but you know what's a a a worse outcome is the fall of the united states
00:40:44.320
of america and we have far too many things going on right here
00:40:49.520
it's time for us to pay attention to america and stop you know squirrel

00:46:24.460
that her daughter was invited to a club by her art teacher last may and that the students in the club
00:46:31.940
were told by an outside speaker what you hear in here stays in here when did our school become vegas
00:46:40.400
what happens in the classroom stays in the classroom you know what i'm saying
00:46:46.020
she explained to my daughter this is the speaker she explained to my daughter that if she is not 100
00:46:53.000
comfortable in her female body then she's transgender now can i just ask the women that happen to be
00:47:01.380
listening to this program have you ever felt 100 comfortable in your own body ever
00:47:07.900
ever because i've never met i've met you know ugly women beautiful women doesn't matter none of them
00:47:20.620
you know you would have the most beautiful woman perfect shape whatever that is and they'll say
00:47:29.160

00:47:38.840
transgender you're a transgender i don't know do you know a woman who's perfectly comfortable 100
00:47:44.620
comfortable in her own body i can't think i can't think of one either i can't the only one the only
00:47:49.480
people you ever see saying that are people in ad campaigns for like big and tall clothing where like
00:47:55.360
the whole shtick is i'm comfortable being big like that's the i can never see it from anybody else
00:48:02.220
i'm sorry i can't imagine it look every i think and and and yes even guys are like this right like
00:48:08.440
we cut joke about it all the time how fat we are right we all know and it's only to stop us from
00:48:13.400
crying every time we walk by the mirror you look at a mirror and the mirror is like good lord man can
00:48:20.120
you not stand in front of me that's everybody i mean what do you mean perfectly comfortable yeah
00:48:26.660
what does that even mean well you're transgender uh the speaker then told the kids that parents
00:48:33.180
aren't safe and it is okay to lie to your parents where they are in order to attend this meeting
00:48:41.760
oh she doubled down and said parents again are not safe and that heterosexuality and monogamy
00:48:49.480
are not normal now i thought we banned that word i thought so too what is normal there is no such
00:48:57.260
thing as normal oh it's gonna make a it's gonna make a comeback it's going to make a comeback except
00:49:04.460
what they'll claim is normal will not be normal that's right it's just like racism like racism was
00:49:11.260
going away and all of a sudden it's made this big comeback and it just looks a little bit different
00:49:15.180
well a lot different i i don't know i think it looks pretty darn similar to the old school racism
00:49:20.040
it's just swapping colors exactly right okay good you're right you're right same thing and so this
00:49:25.540
will be the same thing except you're swapping uh male parts and female parts together being normal
00:49:32.760
to now that's weird oh you're a weirdo you want to do what uh-uh that part goes with
00:49:41.260
the same part over here yeah thanks for the advice now the school district confirmed the existence of
00:49:49.740
the club and that conversations may be confidential but they didn't address any of the specific
00:49:56.100
allegations made by the parent just to protect the privacy of the student and their family
00:50:02.620
oh that's nice oh it's so nice but they did promise to create and uphold equitable inclusive
00:50:09.140
and rigorous educational opportunities and outcomes how do you outcomes how do you support a rigorous
00:50:17.780
educational outcome what what does that mean exactly it doesn't mean anything yeah none of this means
00:50:25.200
anything they always just say these combinations of words to appear as intellectuals but i mean you're
00:50:32.940
right like if you are controlling for outcome then it can't be rigorous no no can't be uh according to
00:50:41.680
the parent rights group parents defending education the club speaker name the one that came in and said
00:50:47.640
parents are not safe is kimberly chambers she's the director of splash a youth of northern colorado and
00:50:55.620
community health improvement plan coordinator for larimer county okay according to the email
00:51:01.400
correspondence obtained by parents defending education between chambers and the girl's art teacher
00:51:07.540
chambers expressed concern about the girl's well-being due to her mother's objections to the club
00:51:13.860
after the teacher mentioned the girl hadn't been in school since the controversy arose chambers suggested
00:51:19.300
talking with the school's administration about doing a well child check or whatever is within the
00:51:25.660
policies of the school so the teacher was like your mom is upset at this maybe you should talk to the
00:51:32.120
teacher because uh there's some things we can do with a well child check maybe maybe you're an
00:51:39.200
abusive relationship i'm not saying it i'm just saying it how did this happen i i feel like as of
00:51:45.260
teachers unions okay i got that okay but i mean as of a teachers unions i can't guarantee you that i got it
00:51:55.640
out that time okay uh but as of a couple of years ago this was such a fringy ideology what that it only
00:52:06.720
showed up in places you know like ibram kendy's you know dungeon basement he probably has filled with
00:52:14.680
white people that are not that are not allies um but then then we're at this point all of a sudden a couple
00:52:26.640
all of a sudden in like suburban schools they've always been there they've just been the one that that's crazy a slippery slope
00:52:38.800
they've always been there it just wasn't time and i got news for you it still isn't time and if americans
00:52:47.600
really wake up if this doesn't wake you up your children well let me give you this one
00:52:55.980
how about this one um from kentucky a kentucky couple who came under fire for allowing their six-year-old
00:53:04.240
son to run in the flying pig marathon in cincinnati have revealed they were visited by child protective
00:53:11.880
services ben and cammy cofford of bellevue shared a photo on instagram of an official
00:53:19.240
interviewing rainier a kid who adamantly decided that he wanted to run the marathon
00:53:24.440
in the caption they wrote that child protection services arrived at their home unannounced on friday
00:53:30.200
and interviewed our children because leaders in the community are calling running with children
00:53:36.500
wrong and this needs to stop uh the parents said our children are having an emotional breakdown right
00:53:45.520
now not from running but from a mob that has weaponized themselves by running the running and
00:53:55.520
destroying the most accomplished and celebrated individuals they are stating that children
00:54:01.060
running is abusive and while they do that not providing any data or facts uh the reports and stance are
00:54:09.060
false says the parents hundreds of witnesses including police officers and hours of video footage
00:54:13.620
corroborate when will they apologize and retract all of this the district attorney in campbell county
00:54:20.560
kentucky confirmed to good morning america that child services had visited the crawfords but said no
00:54:26.180
determination had been made about the probe the real stuff that we got accused of was dragging our son
00:54:33.900
physically dragging him on the marathon course after mile 13 and across the finish line if you've seen
00:54:42.920
our finish line picture we all held hands like that at the last at the last moment for the last
00:54:50.380
uh 0.3 miles we walked we talked about it ahead of time that's what we were gonna do i don't know if
00:54:58.040
anybody if i should be angry i like to believe that people are doing the best they can but they're
00:55:03.640
they're trying to root that they're not trying to ruin our life you know they're probably legitimately
00:55:09.760
afraid for our kids but where's the line you passed that line a long time ago don't don't don't
00:55:16.520
stop stop people are trying to do the legitimate thing no they might think they're doing the
00:55:23.880
legitimate thing but they're most likely the ones standing up for the lgbt club where you can lie to
00:55:30.400
your parents they're most likely standing up saying the supreme court has taken away the right to kill
00:55:37.300
my child which is not true by the way and we've got to have abortion at any time these people have gone
00:55:46.080
insane they've gone insane so no i don't give anybody the benefit of the doubt they can feel like
00:55:55.460
they're doing the wrong the right thing but i don't care how they feel they're doing the right
00:56:01.280
the wrong thing now this family is a running family all the kids have run the older kids you see the
00:56:08.380
picture of the family the older kids are pissed um and the older kids have been running with the
00:56:16.120
family they this is a this is what they do and if my son said i want to race and i want to finish it
00:56:22.720
i would say honey it's a long long race okay but i want to finish it okay well that means we're going to
00:56:29.880
walk some of the time and it means we're going to stop but if you really want to finish it i do
00:56:36.340
and then halfway through when the kid says i don't want to finish this anymore you don't finish it
00:56:42.120
but that's not what he said i really want to finish it because he's looking up to his older brothers
00:56:49.940
and sisters who did the same thing when they were his age my gosh what's wrong with people
00:57:08.420
you know the old phrase garbage in garbage out it turns out that the opposite is also true
00:57:16.640
when it comes to your kids giving them positive truthful information to put in their heads
00:57:21.400
produces productive truthful young adults okay boy what do you say we raise a few of those huh
00:57:29.380
you have absolutely no help in society uh no help you you cannot trust any organization anymore
00:57:40.280
you cannot trust the schools if your teachers are still in a teacher's union they can be the greatest
00:57:47.940
person ever no no i'm sorry i don't trust you because you are not smart enough to see the correlation
00:57:58.500
and connection between what you are paying them and the destruction of our children in schools so you may
00:58:05.960
not be doing anything but the organization that you're funding and you can opt out of at any time
00:58:12.120
sorry sorry sorry anyway you have to do the work and here's something that may help you um it is a
00:58:22.800
magazine a monthly magazine that shows kids other kids other kids that are doing extraordinary things
00:58:30.100

you know kids do not waste blackouts don't um because you're going to need them and boy
00:59:40.400
could i use a stiff drink uh now if you were listening to the program might sound a little
00:59:50.420
this is a real story that i think you have to be hammered to tell the satanic temple
01:00:01.840
said its adherence to the satanic temple should be permitted religious exceptions to perform
01:00:21.480
uh... they say the states have put up barriers to the controversial procedure
01:00:28.000
responding to the leaked supreme court opinion draft that would overturn roe versus wade
01:00:33.180
the satanist temple said that we are we are we're absolutely committed to protecting
01:00:48.440
so you know you can you can come in to the temple and we just
01:01:06.860
it's all of a sudden a really important religious ceremony
01:01:10.300
well they've been fighting for this for a while you know

01:01:41.120
and they're harassing people at their homes and

01:05:18.240
slash glenn is the place to go to subscribe to blaze tv
01:05:41.760
the five people i'm watching that can really change the world
01:05:45.260
elon musk is probably number number one number two is probably vivek
01:05:51.400
swamy who is with us now if i can get his name right
01:06:06.720
you're in the position where you don't have to do something
01:06:16.260
yeah so we're taking on the three largest asset managers in the world
01:06:20.600
glenn starting with black rock who is managing over 10 trillion dollars that is one firm
01:06:30.160
they are using the money of everyday american citizens
01:06:34.440
most of the listeners of this program yours and mine
01:06:37.340
to foist values onto corporate america to advocate for policies in corporate america
01:06:48.520
to advance these social and environmental policies
01:06:57.440
but just think about this as a second for a thought experiment all right
01:07:03.880
and chevron get together in a room and say we're going to cut gas production
01:07:08.140
and then gas prices spike at the pump as a result
01:07:12.760
people would be walking out perp walks and handcuffs
01:07:20.580
all force those firms to do the exact same thing
01:07:28.220
and that's a problem we're solving through competition
01:07:31.260
and so my my message to black rug was really simple
01:07:33.420
good news is we're going to solve your antitrust problem
01:07:35.760
the bad news is we're going to do it by taking market share
01:07:38.420
by actually representing the voices of everyday american citizens
01:07:52.840
so the the movement begins in the third quarter of the year
01:07:59.860
what we said was that the first products will launch in the third quarter
01:08:07.220
i've been blown away by the level of support we received
01:08:09.540
in fact the number of employees of the big asset managers
01:08:12.520
including vanguard and blackrock and state street
01:08:22.240
and you know what i don't hold it against employees
01:08:29.600
and you know what these firms didn't act this way 20 years ago
01:08:33.800
and so even for employees of these large asset managers
01:08:36.600
who have seen the lurch that these firms have taken
01:08:46.120
so vivek the you know i've been preaching this esg stuff
01:08:54.860
couldn't get uh couldn't get the um uh the states
01:09:23.660
recommend that people do business in your state
01:09:36.140
this isn't even a battle between left and right glenn
01:09:38.460
this is a battle between living in a democratic republic
01:09:51.200
now i don't think that public policymakers are up to the task
01:10:06.960
not the one that's guided by the invisible hand of government
01:10:09.840
but the one that's actually guided by the demands of everyday citizens
01:10:13.060
that's the system that i think could deliver the cleanest solution
01:10:18.300
or are actually brave enough to step into that void
01:10:22.260
i also think there's a great opportunity to change our culture
01:10:27.680
it's just that i'm focused more on the market track
01:11:20.620
people don't lie on their credit card applications
01:11:27.860
that actually becomes one of the largest economies
01:11:38.600
this is beyond democratic and republican partisan politics
01:11:41.580
i actually want to get politics out of the private sector
01:11:48.400
and competitive force to bring that true diversity
01:11:52.840
when right now especially in capital markets glenn
01:11:57.500
and esg is whatever blackrock decides it means on a given day
01:12:00.660
what we really need is just true competition and true diversity
01:12:04.720
and i don't want partisanized economies left at the end of it
01:12:10.380
the private sector if it's depoliticized can bring us together
01:12:14.980
well i mean if we have to have a parallel economy
01:12:23.080
and they'll either get competitive or they'll be destroyed
01:12:29.060
isn't that we have two permanent parallel economies
01:12:31.160
but companies like airbnb and blackrock and disney
01:12:35.740
you know every other company in corporate america
01:12:37.880
is going to wake up and say five years from now
01:12:41.780
probably wasn't as diverse and inclusive as we thought
01:12:46.800
did you see that blackrock what they announced today
01:12:56.060
it's about them trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube
01:13:02.960
those proposals we put up a couple of years ago
01:13:12.860
i would rather have somebody who has a different view
01:13:15.820
who we could engage in healthy debate in the open
01:13:24.480
now they're trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube
01:13:26.920
i think i have a very difficult time doing that
02:03:36.920
I also rescued a painting from a museum in Portland
