00:00:01.240 When you are a dog owner, you want to do everything you can for them.
00:00:05.580 We're calling Uno today, and he was outside, and I was like, Uno, come on, Uno.
00:00:12.700 And I said, he is being so disobedient.
00:00:14.760 I don't know what's gotten into him.
00:00:16.340 And Tanya walked outside and whistled, and he didn't turn around for that.
00:00:21.100 And we think he's going deaf.
00:00:22.740 And I'm so bummed.
00:00:24.980 Oh, you're kidding.
00:00:25.500 We want to keep our dog healthy and with us as long as possible.

00:00:31.580 Rough greens has changed him.
00:00:33.880 He acts like a puppy.

00:03:15.460 That's TuttleTwinsBeck.com.
00:03:27.300 We are still praying for miracles in the devastation of the tornado that hit this weekend.
00:03:40.660 And it is it's something that we literally have never seen in America.
00:03:45.120 This is the longest stretch of a tornado.
00:03:48.740 What would you call it?
00:03:50.020 Swath in the history of the United States.
00:03:54.340 It was a EF3 tornado.
00:03:57.300 And it cleaned a large swath of about, what is it, about 100 miles, isn't it?
00:04:03.820 No, it was over 200 miles.
00:04:05.420 200 miles.
00:04:05.940 I mean, what on earth?
00:04:07.280 Because you think about, we have these stories every once in a while.
00:04:09.920 And you think about, okay, here are, there are a few tornadoes that hit different areas, like a series of them in one storm cell.
00:04:17.460 This was like one really long tornado that went across an entire, multiple states.
00:04:23.180 And, I mean, the devastation is...
00:04:25.240 Never seen anything like it.
00:04:26.240 We know that the 80 are dead.
00:04:29.080 This is the last update that I got, if you have a different number.
00:04:32.420 Yeah, they think 80 is the official number.
00:04:34.160 They do think it's going to go over 100.
00:04:35.560 Yeah, 100, yeah.
00:04:36.800 Many people are still missing.
00:04:38.660 It is, if you have never experienced a tornado, they are terrifying.
00:04:43.640 I remember my grandfather talking about, you know, living in Iowa, and the tornadoes would roll through.
00:04:54.440 And he used to tell stories about how straw could be driven through telephone poles.
00:05:01.020 And it's one thing to hear it, and it's another thing to experience it.
00:05:06.440 I've, thank God, never experienced, you know, getting close to a tornado.
00:05:12.960 You know, I've been within 10 miles, and it was spooky enough 10 miles away.
00:05:18.120 But I've gone to several sites after, and when they say a town is gone, the town is gone.
00:05:28.240 I've seen tornadoes take houses and literally turn it into paper pulp and throw the house against the wall of another building that remains intact.
00:05:42.160 But everything that was the house and in the house is now pulp, and it's like wallpaper all over.
00:05:50.080 It is, the force is absolutely incredible.
00:05:55.020 Makes you feel appropriately small.
00:05:59.900 It does.
00:06:00.660 And this is the type of thing that is so overwhelming when it comes, you know, it's the type of thing that they like to take advantage of when it comes to the climate change stuff.
00:06:07.880 You saw the FEMA director coming out and saying this over the weekend.
00:06:10.780 Oh, well, this is, you know, what to look forward to in climate change.
00:06:13.860 And it's sad that they go to those things immediately, you know, considering, especially there's just basically no evidence at all that ties climate change to increased tornadoes or tornadoes becoming more destructive.
00:06:28.600 That's, of all the areas that they have and have studied on climate, this is one that they really legitimately have nothing.
00:06:35.500 They're not even claiming to have anything.
00:06:36.740 You know, we had in between 2020 and 2000 and 2020, there were five EF5 tornadoes, five of them in 20 years.
00:06:47.540 From 1954 to 1974, we had 36 of them.
00:06:51.380 Holy cow.
00:06:51.980 Yeah.
00:06:52.480 Now, if you look at the long-term trends on larger tornadoes over a century, what you see is a slight decrease in the number of them.
00:07:00.500 So, not an increase, not a complete drop-off.
00:07:06.400 Like, when we talk about deaths from climate-related events, you have a complete drop-off in 100 years, a drop-off of over 98% of climate-related deaths.
00:07:15.560 So, that one is, like, really compelling to say, hey, whatever we're doing right now is making things better in this area.
00:07:22.600 Tornadoes, you wouldn't argue that you're making it better with what we're doing.
00:07:26.280 You would say that, you know, people are surviving more often when they get hit.
00:07:29.980 Obviously, there's some innovations we've made there.
00:07:32.640 But there are fewer of them slightly over 100 years, which would indicate climate change is not the thing driving these things, right?
00:07:40.780 I mean, if anything, there's a slight decrease, which gives you the opposite of what the media is going to be telling you all week long.
00:07:46.920 And it's really unsettling because you look at what has happened to these areas.
00:07:53.560 I mean, legitimately, as you mentioned, wiped off the map.
00:07:57.940 Yeah.
00:07:58.320 Horror story after horror story of real people suffering.
00:08:02.180 And it's going to be, you know, it's sad to watch the media go through their normal cycles on this.
00:08:06.720 And I know the media says that thoughts and prayers do nothing.
00:08:13.360 But at least the people in these areas know that thoughts and prayers are deeply meaningful.
00:08:20.560 And our thoughts and prayers are with all of the people that were in that 200-mile stretch.
00:08:29.180 Mercury One already has people on the scene.
00:08:32.800 If you would like to donate, you can just go to mercuryone.org, mercuryone.org, and help the people who have now absolutely nothing.
00:08:47.200 You know, in floods and everything, you can kind of take some things away.
00:08:51.460 But in tornadoes, it's all gone.
00:08:53.580 It's just gone.
00:08:56.680 And it's so indiscriminate.
00:09:00.120 You know, it'll take half a house and the other house, the other part of the house is completely fine.
00:09:09.000 It's just so bizarre, so bizarre and terrifying.
00:09:13.760 It is.
00:09:14.360 I've been through hurricanes, earthquakes, you know, storms of all kinds.
00:09:21.080 I have not had one close, but we've had the we could see them on the horizon.
00:09:27.200 And those things are so frightening because they can, unlike this one, they can just suck up back into the sky and stop and then come back down someplace else.
00:09:40.340 And it is so indiscriminate.
00:09:47.000 Mercuryone.org.
00:09:49.600 Mercuryone.org.
00:09:50.860 All right.
00:09:53.480 I went to be with the president at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, and I have a lot to say and some clips from the interview that we did.
00:10:04.140 I did a interview for the first of the year.
00:10:07.920 This one will air January 5th.
00:10:10.480 And it is going to be the the first interview looking forward and not backward on the year.
00:10:20.020 So what what are we in store for and how do we fix it?
00:10:26.160 He he was quite impressive, quite impressive, especially since, you know.
00:10:33.680 Joe Biden is just gone.
00:10:39.300 Jill Biden said this weekend is because he's working so many hours.
00:10:43.220 Uh huh.
00:10:44.860 But he's just gone.
00:10:47.200 The president was a in a very good place.
00:10:52.220 He was sharp, sharp, sharp.
00:10:54.620 I said to him, do you remember the first time we met?
00:10:56.460 This was off the air.
00:10:57.660 You were the first time we met.
00:10:58.600 And he said, I, I said it was, I said, Larry King.
00:11:04.980 And he said, Larry King's birthday.
00:11:07.560 I mean, wow.
00:11:10.640 That was a long time ago.
00:11:12.300 That was 15, 16 years ago.
00:11:14.420 And I was a nobody.
00:11:15.340 And that's when Larry King turned 116.
00:11:17.760 It was 400.
00:11:18.680 His 400th birthday.
00:11:19.820 It was his 400th birthday.
00:11:21.120 He came in.
00:11:22.160 He brought his own dirt, like all vampires do.
00:11:25.660 And he was on the, uh, the bottom of the Mayflower, I believe.
00:11:29.000 So it was, it was interesting.
00:11:31.000 Um, but anyway, uh, and then had dinner.
00:11:33.340 He was, he invited me to have dinner, uh, with, uh, he said, you want to, what do you,
00:11:39.340 what do you have planned?
00:11:39.980 And I'm like McDonald's.
00:11:42.100 And he's like, uh, why don't you come?
00:11:44.740 Melania and I are having dinner.
00:11:45.880 Why don't you come and have dinner with us upstairs?
00:11:48.160 And I'm like, oh, okay.
00:11:50.020 Now I felt a little bad because Bill O'Reilly hadn't invited me to dinner that night.
00:11:56.740 And I felt bad that, you know, I saw him in my mind's eye all night sitting there at
00:12:01.960 Applebee's waiting, you know, like, no, I, you didn't even tell her.
00:12:06.720 Nah.
00:12:11.540 I mean, I will say your name, Bill, bigger name.
00:12:14.400 They do have Cheetos wings.
00:12:15.840 I think currently at Applebee's.
00:12:17.340 So I can see all by himself, just like, no, really somebody is joining me.
00:12:21.960 No, that's the saddest visual I've ever had.
00:12:25.620 Yeah.
00:12:25.860 So, uh, then on Saturday I went and introduced Bill O'Reilly for his big thing.
00:12:30.740 There were about 11,000 people there.
00:12:32.760 Uh, it, I don't know if he announced this from the stage.
00:12:36.040 Um, but what I heard from the venue, because there was a massive screw up, massive screw
00:12:43.160 up and the thing started like an hour late.
00:12:45.320 Uh, and that was because the secret service had to wand everybody.
00:12:49.720 But more importantly, somebody had hacked into the system and changed like half the tickets
00:12:56.100 to fraudulent.
00:12:58.220 So everybody had to bring their tickets, get out of line and bring their tickets to the
00:13:03.960 ticket window.
00:13:04.600 And I mean, I, I, I had to tell you, I was so worried about that event because of the
00:13:12.960 tickets.
00:13:13.320 And then when Bill comes on stage for the first, he comes out, he starts his monologue.
00:13:18.560 He's about to introduce the president and his mics go dead.
00:13:22.320 They hand him another mic dead.
00:13:24.200 Everything was dead for like two minutes.
00:13:26.580 And I thought, holy cow, is this just a screw up or is this, what is this?
00:13:32.640 The first show too, sometimes those things happen, but you know, yeah, it was heightened
00:13:36.920 awareness of the stuff.
00:13:38.280 Yeah.
00:13:38.320 Heightened awareness.
00:13:39.260 I I've never seen security like this before ever.
00:13:42.320 I mean, the security at Mar-a-Lago was, was one thing, but you know, that's the president's
00:13:48.580 house and because it's a national historic site, they can't put fences or gates up.
00:13:56.660 They have gate on the driveway, but there's no fences around it.
00:13:59.940 They can't use all of the stuff that secret service usually use.
00:14:04.060 Yeah.
00:14:04.580 And there are secret service everywhere, everywhere.
00:14:10.260 And, uh, at this, uh, at this show with Bill O'Reilly and it's coming, I think this
00:14:15.400 week to Texas, uh, allow yourself extra time to get there, but it's worth seeing.
00:14:21.540 We'll play some clips.
00:14:22.740 Bill sent me some clips.
00:14:23.640 He made some news this weekend.
00:14:25.480 Uh, and I have, uh, I have a few clips too.
00:14:27.800 I, I asked him about, uh, Dr. Fauci.
00:14:32.320 Tell me a little bit about Dr. Fauci.
00:14:35.420 Uh, and, uh, it was, it's quite interesting.
00:14:38.660 So that's all coming up on the program coming up in just a few minutes.
00:14:41.960 First, let me tell you about LifeLock.
00:14:44.300 God, the holidays for most of us, it's a season of giving, but it's also a season of taking.
00:14:50.240 If you happen to be a cyber criminal, it's the most wonderful time of the year for cyber
00:14:54.460 criminals because we are all online doing our Christmas shopping.
00:14:59.380 You need to be aware that if you're not protected, someone may have, uh, may be out to grab all
00:15:06.640 of your information, grab your numbers and wipe you out.
00:15:11.480 A lot of things you can do to stay safe.
00:15:14.980 Things like using a VPN instead of a public wifi, creating a strong password, et cetera, et cetera.
00:15:19.820 But you also need a dedicated source checking for you on everything.
00:15:25.040 That's LifeLock.
00:15:26.420 You know, nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses,
00:15:30.260 but LifeLock does the best on overseeing all of it.
00:15:36.200 And what's best is if, if they miss something, they have a team of specialists that are going

00:15:57.140 10 seconds, station ID.
00:15:58.780 So, uh, Janice Dean is going to be joining us here in just a few minutes.
00:16:16.840 Uh, she's back in the news because it has come out that Chris Cuomo, uh, what a dirt bag.
00:16:24.540 Uh, he said, he called her that, excuse the expression, Fox weather bitch and, uh, blasted
00:16:34.000 her as that and was looking to discredit her.
00:16:38.140 Uh, is there anything that we can find on that Fox weather bitch?
00:16:43.160 Uh, I mean, this guy to paint her as an extreme right wing nut bag is, is an important part
00:16:48.220 of that.
00:16:48.780 She's not.
00:16:49.460 No.
00:16:49.880 Uh, I will also, uh, say, I mean, it is alleged that these, we don't have the, uh, evidence
00:16:55.560 on this yet.
00:16:56.140 I mean, we have the evidence that he's a dirt bag, but the, on the actual texts themselves,
00:17:00.640 we, uh, we don't necessarily have all of the evidence on that yet, but I will say I had
00:17:05.560 struggled with that this weekend in that it's so lines up with my prior beliefs that I, I
00:17:12.040 almost couldn't find myself to even say.
00:17:14.860 Correct.
00:17:15.280 That they're alleged.
00:17:15.880 It's, it's so who this guy is and has been forever, forever.
00:17:20.100 That's the way they do business.
00:17:21.600 Yep.
00:17:22.120 You know, is there any way to take her and throw her under the bus and make her look like
00:17:26.240 a crazy right winger?
00:17:27.380 Yep.
00:17:27.640 That's what allegedly the text says.
00:17:30.180 Um, there's another story that you're not going to find, uh, many places today that broke,
00:17:35.340 uh, I think on Friday, um, CNN producer who worked shoulder to shoulder with Chris Cuomo has
00:17:44.180 now been indicted on charges of luring young girls to his Vermont ski house for sexual subservience
00:17:51.200 training.
00:17:52.780 Hmm.
00:17:53.780 Uh, this, this guy, his name is John Griffin.
00:17:57.740 He was arrested, uh, and the FBI, uh, has been doing a, uh, uh, been doing an investigation
00:18:06.200 on him for a while.
00:18:08.460 Uh, he apparently was on, um, kick and Google hangouts and he communicated with people purporting
00:18:16.920 to be parents of minor daughters conveying to them among other ideas that a woman is a
00:18:20.880 woman regardless of her age and that women should be sexually subservient and inferior
00:18:26.320 to men.
00:18:27.700 That's not a good point.
00:18:29.120 Yeah.
00:18:30.220 That's not a good series of points.
00:18:32.180 In June, 2020 Griffin advised a mother of a nine to 13 year, nine and 13 year old daughters
00:18:37.540 that the mother's responsibility was to see their older daughter was trained properly.
00:18:42.200 He sent her $3,000 for plane tickets.
00:18:45.400 So the mother and her nine year old daughter could fly to Nevada to Boston's Logan airport.
00:18:49.700 Uh, the mother and child flew to Boston July, 2020, where he picked him up in his Tesla
00:18:54.440 and drove to his house.
00:18:55.500 The daughter was directed to engage and did engage in unlawful sexual activity.
00:19:01.160 Um, does this maybe why they never talked about the CIA, why they're not talking about,
00:19:08.180 um, you know, um, what's his name?
00:19:12.380 Um, that, you know, Jeffrey Epstein definitely killed himself.
00:19:15.780 I mean, this, this, this is, this is only going to play into conspiracy centers again.
00:19:24.440 But these people are so bad that it's just such a bad group of people.
00:19:32.080 And it would behoove these organizations to have, uh, somebody who is new at the top
00:19:38.980 and clean house, just clean house.
00:19:43.860 It's a good point, Glenn.
00:19:45.220 I can't, I can't disagree with it.
00:19:46.940 I mean, look, we, we know we worked in that building at one point and there are a lot of
00:19:51.120 really good people who work there and I know that that sounds like a disclaimer, uh, but
00:19:54.940 it's not, I mean, we really did work with a lot of really great people who were there
00:19:57.980 and people who did, some of them are liberal and still, and aren't doing journalism the
00:20:03.160 way I want them to, but they're not this, they're not Chris Cuomo.
00:20:06.980 Uh, there's a big separation there.
00:20:09.580 Uh, and there does seem to be a real problem.
00:20:14.840 When, once you start to tolerate things that aren't true, that you just, it's easy to slide
00:20:21.380 into the mud.
00:20:22.400 You know what I mean?
00:20:23.800 Uh, and they were tolerating, I mean, real journalists should have walked, should have
00:20:28.580 walked, said, you don't fire him right now.
00:20:31.580 I walk.
00:20:33.140 Uh, and that should have happened a long time ago with Chris Cuomo.
00:20:36.020 It's, there's all the journalistic standards went out the window.
00:20:39.940 And I really do not think it had anything to do with that.
00:20:43.380 His firing.
00:20:44.300 I don't think his firing was related to him basically destroying all sense of journalism
00:20:51.040 for this company that purports to be the apple for every fact.
00:20:56.020 Uh, this is an apple.
00:20:57.940 If you remember that nonsensical campaign, uh, you know, for that organization, you might
00:21:03.880 say, uh, uh, uh, uh, an opinion organization wouldn't fire him immediately over some of
00:21:08.520 the things he did.
00:21:09.260 You might say, okay, well, you know what?
00:21:10.820 We know he's, he's biased in this way and we're going to be out front with it and it'd
00:21:14.680 be okay.
00:21:15.040 No, but they claim their news.
00:21:16.900 They should have done it minute one.
00:21:18.580 They waited way longer than any respectable opinion site would have waited.
00:21:22.780 And then when they did it, they only did it because they were embarrassed and were lied
00:21:27.840 to by Chris Cuomo.
00:21:28.920 It wasn't even that they thought what he did was particularly all that bad.
00:21:32.820 It seems it's just that it got to the point where it, it made executives look and feel
00:21:38.660 bad and that is disgraceful.
00:21:41.780 I mean, it was the, what they did was with this Cuomo situation from, from, you know, January
00:21:48.500 and February of 2020 until they finally got rid of the guy was an absolute complete and
00:21:54.700 utter disgrace.
00:21:56.100 I, I, I, there's no defending it.
00:21:58.560 There is absolutely no defending it from minute one.
00:22:02.820 When they started popping him on the air with, remember, this is a guy, Andrew Cuomo, who got
00:22:07.040 fired for harassing women.
00:22:09.220 They were on the air, calling him the love gov on the air with his brother.
00:22:13.780 Listen to this.
00:22:14.520 You've got Cuomo who is abusive to women.
00:22:17.760 You have Toomey who was abusive to himself, I guess.
00:22:22.020 Toobin, you're talking about Toobin.
00:22:23.280 You have, uh, yeah, Toobin.
00:22:25.560 You have, uh, Don Lennon, Lemon, who is in court for sexual harassment.
00:22:30.180 And now you have this child predator who was the producer or one of the producers for CNN
00:22:37.800 and Chris Cuomo.
00:22:39.500 I mean, that's not a good record guys.
00:22:42.040 Let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins.
00:22:50.320 If you're still shopping for Christmas, your kids and your grandkids, now is, uh, the time
00:22:55.920 to pull the trigger on something that I think is an absolute must under your Christmas tree
00:23:03.120 for your grandkids.
00:23:04.680 It's the Tuttle Twins books.
00:23:07.240 Tuttle Twins have toddler and children's books that explore the principles of freedom using
00:23:11.880 stories and pictures.
00:23:13.440 They have a free market curriculum with lessons that explore how free markets work.
00:23:17.560 So your kids, by the time their teenagers are reading the Tuttle Twins and can understand
00:23:22.080 supply, demand, inflation, how the government intervention affects our economy.
00:23:27.000 This is something that we must teach our kids because they are being taught the exact opposite.
00:23:33.900 And, uh, you know, I know it's not good night moon and people sometimes go like, well,
00:23:40.120 I kind of feel weird because I'm teaching them.
00:23:42.680 No one else is going to teach them this.

00:24:59.220 The person of the year will get into that a little later.
00:25:03.200 And Chris Cuomo has named our next guest a crazy right winger, the Fox weather bitch, which
00:25:13.460 I'm sure she appreciates.
00:25:16.580 Janice Dean is with us now.
00:25:18.080 Hi, Janice.
00:25:18.680 How are you?
00:25:19.700 Oh, Glenn, you could say that word on on the air.
00:25:22.880 Yeah.
00:25:23.760 Yeah, I don't like to.
00:25:24.720 But I want to get his words exact this.
00:25:28.700 This is another all time low for these guys.
00:25:34.600 I'm not surprised, though.
00:25:36.420 I think you and I have spoken throughout this year and a half that I've been trying to raise
00:25:41.400 awareness and accountability for the deaths of my husband's parents who were in nursing
00:25:46.060 homes.
00:25:46.460 And last spring, we found out that our governor forced nine thousand covid infected patients
00:25:52.560 to go into nursing homes, including my husband's parents.
00:25:57.020 And so I've kind of been on a mission to find out why and then find out also why he hid those
00:26:04.140 numbers.
00:26:04.640 At least 15000 seniors died and he was covering up the numbers by at least 50 percent.
00:26:09.640 We now know the timeline corresponded with his five point two million dollar book celebrating
00:26:15.800 himself and saying he was like the best leader in the middle of a pandemic, winning an Emmy
00:26:21.340 award, going on every major news channel to celebrate himself, including on his brother's
00:26:26.840 network, joking about free covid tests that him and his family were getting while nursing
00:26:31.520 homes could not test incoming patients.
00:26:33.680 And early on, I heard from a few people that know this family very well, and and they told
00:26:39.440 me, watch your back.
00:26:41.640 These people are vindictive.
00:26:43.200 They will come after you.
00:26:44.940 They will do whatever they have to do to silence you.
00:26:48.680 So I'm not surprised that this information is coming out.
00:26:51.720 But what I am doing is I'm filing what they call a FOIL request, freedom of information
00:26:57.500 law here in New York to see if I can find any paperwork, official documentation.
00:27:02.980 From the Cuomo administration and Chris Cuomo talking about myself or my family.
00:27:09.820 I think that is a very smart move.
00:27:12.860 These guys are you know, we joke that they're a mob family, but they have a lot of the mob
00:27:19.360 like attitudes and tactics.
00:27:23.440 You know, the the family is number one.
00:27:25.640 They circle the wagons and they destroy anybody that gets in their way.
00:27:29.000 It really seems that way.
00:27:32.420 And I've talked to a few people who are kind of tallying up all the potential crimes that
00:27:38.940 this administration has committed.
00:27:40.520 There are several of them, and they might even fall under the RICO Act.
00:27:44.020 I mean, this is like an organized crime family.
00:27:47.220 I mean, I'm not joking about this.
00:27:49.760 And I know you're not either.
00:27:50.640 So do you think that do you think that that that somebody is going to see jail time from
00:27:56.420 all of this a Cuomo?
00:27:58.500 I think I think Andrew Cuomo could possibly see jail time from this.
00:28:03.480 Yes.
00:28:03.820 The fact that he was actively covering up nursing home deaths to benefit himself and
00:28:10.560 his family, that would be a crime.
00:28:13.660 Also giving out those free friends and family COVID tests to city officials using state resources
00:28:19.940 to do that while nobody could get COVID tests.
00:28:24.220 And then the book deal, the book deal, the fact that they used government resources and
00:28:30.120 turned the executive chambers into a book publishing company instead of saving New York,
00:28:35.560 you know, instead of governing, governing, governing the people he was elected to do that for.
00:28:43.440 So there are several things that are against the law that he broke the law and should be punished
00:28:49.520 for.
00:28:50.560 It is it is fascinating to me to see how different states and people from those states are reacting
00:28:57.620 to the coronavirus, where it is it's it's cult like it is almost cult like with the vaccines
00:29:08.140 and the the masking.
00:29:11.120 Now it looks like we are going to have to mask up again in some states.
00:29:15.560 New York is is doing that.
00:29:17.500 Governor Inslee in Washington state said those who are unvaccinated are domestic terrorists.
00:29:24.940 Uh, they're carrying around a time bomb in their backpack.
00:29:30.400 This is insanity.
00:29:33.100 When is this going to stop?
00:29:35.700 It's that's a good question.
00:29:37.160 Uh, you know, our governor here in New York has basically, you know, declared a state of
00:29:41.660 emergency again, and, um, she's enforced all of those rules and regulations.
00:29:46.460 Um, you know, even kids the age of five and under are masking up, you know, my kids are in
00:29:52.180 school every day, and yet every time I see her on television, she doesn't wear a mask.
00:29:56.080 So, you know, we, we see these, um, government officials saying that you have to do this, but
00:30:02.200 yet when they go out and, and attend parties and functions, we don't see them with a mask
00:30:07.500 on.
00:30:07.780 It's, it's quite infuriating.
00:30:09.340 How do you think, um, things are going to end for Fauci?
00:30:13.340 I can't understand why he's still out there speaking.
00:30:15.640 You know, he, this weekend, he said, Americans are just going to have to deal with yearly
00:30:19.620 boosters because they might become necessary.
00:30:23.600 Whoa.
00:30:24.620 But then the media keeps putting them on television and, you know, early on him and Andrew Cuomo
00:30:29.800 were like buddies, you know, they called each other every day.
00:30:32.980 He was very, you know, he was calling Chris Cuomo every day when Chris apparently had COVID,
00:30:38.360 even though, you know, he was lying to us and, and was still going out, uh, despite telling
00:30:43.780 all of his viewers that he was quarantining.
00:30:45.840 So I remember when, um, Fauci was saying that Andrew Cuomo was doing a good job as body bags
00:30:51.680 are piling outside of nursing homes.
00:30:53.780 So, you know, he continues to be on television, um, and people are giving him airtime.
00:30:59.120 And I believe he also has a book coming out about how great he is.
00:31:02.360 Oh my gosh.
00:31:04.600 Uh, Janice, thank you so much.
00:31:06.260 Thanks for everything that you've done.
00:31:07.820 Uh, and I hope you have a great, great holiday.
00:31:11.060 Glenn, thank you.
00:31:11.940 And thank you to your listeners as well for the prayers and listening to the story.
00:31:15.920 You got it.
00:31:16.420 Thank you.
00:31:17.100 That is one woman who changed the world.
00:31:20.580 She really did.
00:31:21.400 She, she is, I think the reason, uh, Cuomo is out in all of this started to snowball.
00:31:28.700 Would you agree with that?
00:31:29.680 Yeah.
00:31:29.900 If there's any one person responsible for it, it's her.
00:31:32.780 I mean, I think you did a great job too.
00:31:34.720 I mean, you were, she, she would say, she would say, I mean, she's so you are also a big
00:31:39.680 part of it.
00:31:40.200 She's also the nicest person in the universe.
00:31:42.380 So, which is what's so amazing about this particular scandal with Chris Cuomo.
00:31:46.720 I mean, there could not be anything more opposite of the truth than to call Janice Dean, uh, you
00:31:56.060 know, a, uh, an evil or whatever, right, right winger, crazy right winger.
00:32:01.280 Yeah.
00:32:01.680 And obviously the swears and stuff in particular, that particular term is just so not her.
00:32:07.820 I mean, she's really, I mean, before this Cuomo thing, obviously she's been well known
00:32:12.540 in the media for a very long time.
00:32:14.460 She is a media, senior meteorologist at Fox news.
00:32:17.100 She has a very long and illustrious career.
00:32:20.320 Uh, but you know, she recently has come to writing these books about just people doing
00:32:25.480 nice things for each other and going through tough times and struggles personally and overcoming
00:32:30.820 them.
00:32:31.540 Um, and what a witch, it's like the exact opposite of who she is.
00:32:36.540 And, you know, this is the type of thing that Chris Cuomo has done for CNN.
00:32:42.280 He said the opposite of the truth on the air.
00:32:44.740 And now we apparently know off the air as well.
00:32:47.140 That's who Chris Cuomo is.
00:32:48.540 And what, you know, it's so funny is they, they said how bad Fox news was and yeah, there
00:32:54.420 were some problems at Fox news, sexual problems, uh, at, uh, Fox news.
00:33:00.120 I didn't see it, but I'm not a woman and look at me.
00:33:03.020 Nobody's hitting on me.
00:33:04.740 Um, but, uh, I know that there were problems there.
00:33:08.560 The ones that are at CNN, you wonder how, how arrogant, how did they ever get to a place
00:33:20.480 to believe that they could behave in worse manners and still point to the other and not
00:33:29.900 have a stone come through their glass wall?
00:33:33.260 You know, that takes balls.
00:33:34.700 You know, usually if you're doing something, you're like, and somebody else does it, you
00:33:39.400 don't dog pile on that person because you don't, you know, somebody's going to go, wait
00:33:44.200 a minute, what do you do?
00:33:45.660 You doing anything like that?
00:33:48.480 And they just dog piled.
00:33:50.680 Seems like that was the cause of all these controversies too.
00:33:52.900 They kept saying things on the air or publicly that pissed off women.
00:33:57.340 They had harassed over multiple or in, in Don Lemon's case, a man.
00:34:02.340 And just, they just were like, okay, I can't take this anymore.
00:34:07.480 Yeah.
00:34:07.620 The hypocrisy.
00:34:08.760 I can't take it anymore.
00:34:10.480 By the way, let me give you some good news.
00:34:13.340 Ron DeSantis has released his budget and he's put $8 million into his budget to, uh, transport
00:34:24.880 illegal immigrants out of Florida and, uh, shipping them, uh, right to the district of
00:34:32.440 Columbia and Delaware.
00:34:36.860 Now they wouldn't, I love that.
00:34:38.720 Wasn't Martha's Vineyard on the list as well?
00:34:40.360 Yeah.
00:34:40.380 Martha's Vineyard is as well.
00:34:41.700 Yes.
00:34:42.020 Now they wouldn't reject this, right?
00:34:45.120 They wouldn't say we don't want them to come here.
00:34:47.760 Would they?
00:34:48.200 They certainly wouldn't say something like that because they are so willing to welcome
00:34:54.700 illegal immigrants all over the country.
00:34:57.060 I hope he does it.
00:34:57.600 I really hope he does it.
00:34:59.520 Do you think he will?
00:35:00.380 It's $8 million got to be approved by the legislature, et cetera, et cetera.
00:35:03.680 But I think that that says it all.
00:35:06.220 That would say it all.
00:35:07.600 You came in with airplanes in the middle of the night and you landed and you put all these
00:35:14.400 people in here without talking to anybody, not just the governor's office, but anyone
00:35:20.140 in Florida, nobody had a voice and saying, uh, no, we don't want the people who had just
00:35:25.140 crossed here illegally.
00:35:26.840 You flew them in fine.
00:35:29.560 We don't want them.
00:35:31.620 We're going to, we're going to give them to you because you are the leaders of this.
00:35:35.660 Barack Obama.
00:35:36.860 You're the leaders of this.
00:35:38.300 Washington DC.
00:35:39.400 You're the leaders of this Delaware.
00:35:41.700 You take them.
00:35:42.680 How is the president going to say no in Delaware?
00:35:47.400 How is he going to say no in Martha's Vineyard?
00:35:50.600 And my temptation is to pitch it like this, like, Hey, what are you going to say?
00:35:55.180 You're going to say no here guys.
00:35:56.540 Well, wait a minute.
00:35:57.040 I thought that you cared so much.
00:35:58.780 That's my temptation.
00:35:59.720 But in reality, let's just put it as let's just take them at their word.
00:36:04.980 They continually say, number one, they're not a threat in any way.
00:36:09.460 There's no negative consequences from this.
00:36:11.440 And number two, they're the only ones who can help them.
00:36:14.520 And, and we are treating them terribly.
00:36:16.600 And number three, if you say anything about it, you're a xenophobe.
00:36:19.760 Right.
00:36:20.420 So, so let's load the plane.
00:36:22.800 I'm for the good of the illegal immigrants.
00:36:25.180 You say Republican states treat them horribly and don't give them the things that they need
00:36:30.580 and treat them as others and all of these things that you say all the time.
00:36:34.780 We're all these racist states that don't want to help these fine people get along with their lives.
00:36:39.200 Well, then maybe you should take them.
00:36:40.580 Maybe you're the only one who can, who can handle it.
00:36:42.360 So Ron DeSantis is going to be on my program on Wednesday night.
00:36:45.640 He's the Wednesday night special live for the full hour.
00:36:48.660 Oh, that's interesting.
00:36:49.340 Yeah.
00:36:50.000 And I'm going to tell him if you can't get that through the budget, I think this audience
00:36:56.120 would raise $8 million to do that.
00:36:58.220 Don't you move people out of the Middle East, you know, to safety.
00:37:02.640 We should move them to the safety of Martha's Vineyard.
00:37:05.980 And I think we could raise that $8 million in about an hour.
00:37:11.400 So if he can't get it through the legislature, our audience would raise the money.
00:37:17.620 And you just put it together, Ron, and we'll pay for the planes.
00:37:21.380 Because I think that is a really good test.
00:37:26.540 Who's xenophobic?
00:37:28.120 Who thinks that they're an asset to your community in all ways?
00:37:33.600 Who thinks they shouldn't be verified that they're not good guys or bad guys?
00:37:41.200 We're just going to take the people that you dropped off in Florida.
00:37:44.560 You didn't check.
00:37:46.060 You didn't vet.
00:37:47.140 You didn't vaccinate.
00:37:48.460 And we're just going to drop them off on Martha's Vineyard.
00:37:52.120 Have a good time.
00:37:54.100 That's fantastic.
00:37:55.920 The Martha's Vineyard one is fantastic.
00:37:58.360 They're not going to say yes to that.
00:38:00.480 No, neither will Delaware.
00:38:01.700 No, probably not.
00:38:02.720 Delaware.
00:38:03.400 You definitely won't get it there.
00:38:04.580 They weren't even letting their own citizens back on those islands during the COVID stuff.
00:38:09.360 I know.
00:38:09.720 They were like, you only a vacation home here?
00:38:12.000 You're not allowed.
00:38:15.040 Those are the good people that don't own the vacation homes.
00:38:17.640 They live there year round.
00:38:18.620 Those are the good people.
00:38:20.440 And I think they had a right to say, oh, you're only a snot from a city?
00:38:25.740 I don't know.
00:38:26.640 I think if you own property on one of these places, you should be able to visit the property.
00:38:30.400 I don't know.
00:38:31.500 Really?
00:38:31.800 Yeah, I think so.
00:38:33.360 That's crazy old.
00:38:35.140 Oh, here he is dusting off the old constitution again.
00:38:38.820 Here's Rough Greens.
00:38:40.020 Kurt wrote in recently about his dog experience, said our five-year-old healer mix Pepper loves
00:38:46.300 Rough Greens on her food.
00:38:47.700 After about a week of using it, we noticed that she seemed to have more energy.
00:38:53.440 She was wanting to play more.
00:38:55.440 Rough Greens has turned back the clock on her active activity level.
00:38:59.900 These days, she acts more like a puppy again.
00:39:02.140 Couldn't be happier with Rough Greens.
00:39:03.680 Thank you.
00:39:04.440 Kurt, thank you for writing in.
00:39:06.120 I feel the same way about Uno.
00:39:07.780 He's 10, which makes him an older German shepherd.
00:39:11.520 But he is acting like a puppy all the time.
00:39:15.320 Glad to hear it worked for Pepper as well.
00:39:17.080 Try it with your dog.
00:39:18.040 It's a free bag right now.
00:39:19.680 You can just try it out.
00:39:20.960 All you pay for is the shipping.
00:39:22.260 Go to Rough Greens, R-U-F-F-Greens.com slash Beck.

00:39:30.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:39.260 We're glad you're here.
00:39:39.960 So you did the Bill O'Reilly event this weekend with the president, former President Trump.
00:39:45.440 They're doing a bunch of cities around the country.
00:39:47.800 You can still get tickets, I believe, to some of them.
00:39:50.280 And I've noticed there's this attack going on that there was nobody there.
00:39:54.500 Now, I saw the pictures.
00:39:55.500 There seemed to be a lot of people there.
00:39:56.600 There was a ton of people there.
00:39:57.580 There was probably, I don't know, 10,000 or 11,000 people there.
00:40:01.120 So basically nonsense.
00:40:02.660 Yeah.
00:40:02.920 They took the upper, upper level off.
00:40:06.040 But there's a ton of things that, you know, you're not selling every.
00:40:10.500 In an 18,000 seat venue, selling 11,000 is pretty damn good.
00:40:17.180 And it was packed.
00:40:18.440 It just was the upper nosebleed seats that, quite honestly, in some of those venues, you
00:40:23.260 don't want to have people sitting in there because of the echo.
00:40:26.180 It's made for basketball or hockey.
00:40:28.420 Right.
00:40:28.540 And so the spoken word events are difficult in venues like that.
00:40:31.860 We've had that issue before as well.
00:40:34.660 So did you get booed when you came out?
00:40:38.140 I was kind of hoping there might be a loud, you know, like just deep guttural boo when
00:40:43.440 you walked on stage.
00:40:44.140 Any of that happen?
00:40:45.680 Well, we have the audio.
00:40:46.760 You'll have to hear for yourself.
00:40:47.980 Really?
00:40:48.260 When I walked out on stage.
00:40:49.440 Yeah.
00:40:49.920 Yeah.
00:40:50.160 Because I was going to say, they're probably just saying, we stew.
00:40:53.480 And that would make it.
00:40:54.120 No, I said, I said stew and they said boo.
00:40:57.380 And I was like, no, it's stew.
00:41:01.260 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:03.460 Let me tell you about Bilt Bar.
00:41:04.900 Foof.
00:41:05.160 Better than a candy bar.
00:41:07.600 Better than a candy bar.
00:41:09.520 Rich with flavored, covered in real chocolate, yet amazingly low in calorie, sugar, net carbs
00:41:15.460 and fat.
00:41:16.400 They're high in protein.
00:41:17.380 So they're delicious and healthy.
00:41:20.240 Well, you have the raspberry, the raspberry chocolate, the orange chocolate, the mint brownie,
00:41:26.020 the cherry, the double chocolate cookies and cream, peanut butter brownie.
00:41:30.340 I mean, they are really good, especially at times of high stress with lots of cookies
00:41:35.100 and other treats around.
00:41:36.140 Do yourself a favor.
00:41:37.440 Get something healthy and delicious.

00:41:52.540 All right.
00:41:53.260 We're going to talk a little bit about what happened with Trump.
00:41:55.780 There was some news made from the history tour, Trump on reparations, and China, the world
00:42:07.860 leaders, and what was offered for January 6th.
00:42:14.400 That's all coming up in just a second.
00:42:25.780 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:42:49.740 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:58.740 I was with President Trump Friday and Saturday, and I've got a lot to share with you, but I
00:43:06.280 want to start on Saturday first.
00:43:08.480 Saturday afternoon, I was with Bill O'Reilly and President Trump at Bill's history tour,
00:43:15.500 which I think had two stops this weekend, has a couple of other stops now in Texas.
00:43:21.760 It is well worth your time seeing.
00:43:24.820 It's not a rally.
00:43:26.600 It is a serious sit-down with President Trump.
00:43:29.680 And we have Bill O'Reilly here to talk about a few of the things that happened, the news
00:43:35.800 that was broken.
00:43:36.660 We have the audio on President Trump.
00:43:38.980 I think one of the more interesting things is how Speaker Pelosi turned down Trump's request
00:43:46.340 for 10,000 National Guard troops for January 6th.
00:43:50.900 We'll tell you about that in 60 seconds.
00:43:57.700 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:59.820 You want to create some valuable breathing room in your budget, pay less for your home,
00:44:04.260 and possibly save up to $1,000 a month.
00:44:07.360 Now is the time to refinance your mortgage.
00:44:11.080 You have the benefit now of extremely low mortgage rates and the incentive of an economy
00:44:16.200 that has gone insane and may not stabilize for quite some time.
00:44:21.040 Take a look at your loan.
00:44:22.340 What's the interest rate that you're running into?
00:44:25.640 If you're paying higher than 3%, it's time to get a lower interest rate.
00:44:31.020 And you can do that by placing a call to American Financing.
00:44:34.860 Imagine how much it could free up, not having to pay such a high rate.
00:44:38.000 Imagine what skipping a mortgage payment or two over the next couple of months could do.
00:44:41.920 And if you take your high interest credit cards and you roll them into your mortgage,
00:44:46.820 you'd save up to $1,000 every single month.
00:44:49.860 800-906-2440.
00:44:51.920 800-906-2440.
00:44:54.400 It's AmericanFinancing.net.
00:44:56.020 American Financing, NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:45:08.340 Oh my gosh.
00:45:11.200 How are you?
00:45:12.300 I will tell you, I was in town last night.
00:45:18.420 I did an interview with the president and he is in a very good mood.
00:45:24.460 You're going to enjoy tonight.
00:45:27.340 I got here last night and Bill O'Reilly invited me to have dinner with him and some friends.
00:45:33.220 And I then got an invitation to have dinner with the president in Malania.
00:45:38.440 And so I felt bad the whole time thinking of Bill at that Applebee's all by himself.
00:45:46.640 I'm not going to waste any time.
00:45:49.280 This is the show everybody has been waiting for.
00:45:51.880 However, this is the show that President Biden said,
00:45:55.700 Hadumbalum Shoe Parrot Popsicle.
00:46:04.680 Ladies and gentlemen, wait a minute.
00:46:08.660 This is no joke.
00:46:13.360 I will verify this is on Bill O'Reilly stationery.
00:46:17.360 He asked me to say this.
00:46:21.640 Here, Glenn, please say,
00:46:23.740 As you know, Bill is a humble guy.
00:46:31.360 No, ask him. Seriously.
00:46:33.180 He will tell you.
00:46:34.440 His best trait is his humility.
00:46:37.500 And that is saying something.
00:46:40.040 So, introduction is short.
00:46:42.980 He is the most successful cable news anchor of all time.
00:46:47.360 And the best-selling non-fiction book author of all time.
00:46:57.420 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome.
00:47:02.600 I can't read the rest.
00:47:04.880 Ladies and gentlemen, Bill O'Reilly.
00:47:08.360 And we welcome Bill to the program today.
00:47:10.600 Hello, Bill. How are you?
00:47:12.000 Yeah, I was stunned the crowd liked you.
00:47:13.780 I was equally as stunned that they liked you, by the way.
00:47:19.540 I was trying to get you in there so I wouldn't look so bad.
00:47:22.840 Right. I want to thank you for the hospitality.
00:47:25.800 Can we throw up, if you're watching on the blaze,
00:47:27.560 throw up the picture of me outside of the venue for about 20 minutes in the heat.
00:47:33.040 Just wait. Do we have that?
00:47:34.160 Do we don't have that?
00:47:35.140 There we go.
00:47:35.840 There I am.
00:47:36.500 And I don't know if we have the picture of me in this luxurious dressing room.
00:47:41.960 It was the Panthers, you know.
00:47:47.660 NHL team.
00:47:48.100 NHL team.
00:47:48.820 What do you call those locker rooms?
00:47:51.240 There wasn't even a water in there for me.
00:47:54.760 But I appreciate it, Bill.
00:47:56.280 It was a great way to, you know, show me what was important and who was important.
00:48:00.600 We want to keep you humble, Dad.
00:48:02.060 So I want to play a couple of clips because I think there was some news made.
00:48:09.940 And when you first came out, you said that, you know, this is not a rally.
00:48:14.820 This is to put things on the record.
00:48:18.900 And there's a couple of things.
00:48:20.940 Let's play cut three here.
00:48:22.700 Here's Nancy Pelosi, January 6th.
00:48:25.940 I knew how large this was going to be because everyone I knew was saying,
00:48:29.680 oh, we're going to be there on the 6th.
00:48:31.140 We're going to be there no matter where you went.
00:48:33.000 I said, I think this is going to be really big.
00:48:35.380 And I asked the Secretary of Defense.
00:48:38.020 I said, I think you should recommend to Nancy Pelosi and to Congress because they're the ones that control it.
00:48:44.940 I would like to recommend 10,000 National Guardsmen to go and to police here just in case.
00:48:52.680 I mean, it's a massive rally.
00:48:55.300 This could be over a million people.
00:48:57.240 And by the way, I think it was substantially over a million people.
00:49:00.180 You never hear that.
00:49:01.500 But I think it was substantially.
00:49:03.480 Did the DOD go to Pelosi?
00:49:06.020 Yeah, he did.
00:49:06.960 And they turned Chris Miller, who was a great guy and did a great job.
00:49:12.100 He went to them.
00:49:13.920 He made.
00:49:14.640 I didn't do it as an order.
00:49:16.180 I did it as a suggestion.
00:49:17.460 Because remember, they run the police.
00:49:21.020 Pelosi and Schumer run that whole operation.
00:49:25.960 So a lot of people don't know this.
00:49:27.480 They don't like to report it.
00:49:28.680 So they went there.
00:49:29.920 They recommended that I had, that I said, only because I knew the size of this crowd was going to be enormous.
00:49:35.800 What you see there was, again, a very small number of people relative to the people that heard the speeches and went home.
00:49:44.660 And I said, 10,000 people.
00:49:48.000 And Nancy Pelosi turned it down.
00:49:50.720 Did you ever ask her why?
00:49:52.440 Did you ever find out?
00:49:53.420 No, I didn't ask her why.
00:49:55.320 Well, next time I talk to her, I'll ask her.
00:49:56.960 It would be a good thing.
00:49:57.940 Next time you talk to her, ask her.
00:49:59.060 Right.
00:49:59.560 Anybody want to ask her why?
00:50:01.600 But you don't hear that.
00:50:02.840 I mean, I'll bet you most of the people in this audience have never heard that before.
00:50:06.520 So I recommended 10, but I said, do whatever they want.
00:50:09.420 They're running the Capitol.
00:50:10.340 They know what they're doing.
00:50:11.460 And the Capitol police knew about it.
00:50:13.300 And she knew about it.
00:50:14.200 And they turned it down because they said it didn't look good.
00:50:17.280 Okay.
00:50:18.000 So, Bill, this answers one of one of the questions.
00:50:22.860 Where was the National Guard?
00:50:24.440 And the second question is, why did it take so long to get anybody out there?
00:50:35.020 They knew in advance.
00:50:36.040 You know, it's even worse than that because you have this committee in the House investigating
00:50:42.380 President Trump for instigating the attack on the Capitol.
00:50:47.460 So now he goes on the record and says, two days before, I want a 10,000 guard in D.C., not
00:50:57.360 only at the Capitol, but other government offices.
00:51:00.940 And Pelosi would know.
00:51:05.340 Now, the Washington Post has disputed that.
00:51:07.980 But it looks like Donald Trump did exactly what he said he did.
00:51:13.300 And, you know, you can't trust the hate Trump media at all.
00:51:18.240 But this is a this just basically knocks out that House committee.
00:51:23.860 The whole premise goes down the drain.
00:51:27.340 And that was, you know, one of my goals was to get on the record a bunch of stuff that
00:51:35.520 has never been reported to the American people.
00:51:37.560 And we succeeded in doing that.
00:51:39.180 But it wasn't an easy slog.
00:51:40.820 Now, you have another clip you want to run because I have two points I want to make,
00:51:44.760 but I don't want to interrupt the flow.
00:51:46.240 Yeah.
00:51:46.300 So let me just give you let me give you one more.
00:51:48.460 Here's Trump on China and reparations.
00:51:51.460 Listen to this.
00:51:52.580 Do you think the Chinese government had anything to do with that virus?
00:51:59.660 Well, I think this I think they have to pay a price for the damage they cause to the
00:52:04.220 world.
00:52:04.600 I do think that.
00:52:05.940 What price would that be?
00:52:07.380 It's got to be a price.
00:52:08.420 And by the way, they create a lot of money.
00:52:12.540 I don't know that they have a lot of money, but they certainly create a lot of money.
00:52:16.060 Nobody has the money that we're talking.
00:52:17.900 We're talking about probably 50 or 60 trillion dollars.
00:52:21.540 They don't have that money.
00:52:22.920 Nobody has that money.
00:52:24.200 Nobody will ever have that money.
00:52:25.580 The damage and the death that has been caused.
00:52:28.560 So a lot of people ask me that question.
00:52:30.760 I personally don't think so.
00:52:32.420 But I'll tell you what they did do very badly.
00:52:34.320 They didn't let the world know about it.
00:52:36.820 Right.
00:52:37.020 They didn't tell people to keep up your guard.
00:52:39.300 They guarded China.
00:52:40.700 You couldn't get out of Wuhan or you couldn't get out of the Wuhan product.
00:52:44.580 They covered it up.
00:52:45.460 The province.
00:52:46.240 Well, no, you couldn't get into China, but you could get into Europe and you could get
00:52:51.800 into the US.
00:52:52.660 You could get it all over the world, but they wouldn't let you.
00:52:55.480 So that's a thing that they're going to have to explain.
00:52:59.620 And if we had the right people, they would be explaining, but they should.
00:53:03.480 We talk about reparations.
00:53:05.960 They should pay reparations for the damage.
00:53:08.240 We don't have everything.
00:53:09.000 All right.
00:53:09.480 Bill, go ahead.
00:53:10.820 Yes.
00:53:12.040 Well, I mean, you basically have a situation here.
00:53:15.820 We have a sitting president coming in and answering very serious questions.
00:53:24.500 And my task, and I know you saw this, is some of the people in the audience, and the
00:53:31.000 audience was huge, and I want to get to that in a moment.
00:53:35.240 They thought they were at a rally.
00:53:37.720 So I actually scolded them.
00:53:39.520 I had to scold them.
00:53:40.760 I was stern.
00:53:42.140 I said, wait a minute.
00:53:42.940 This is the president of the United States.
00:53:46.440 We're getting information we don't know.
00:53:49.120 And you're going, oh, no, don't do that.
00:53:55.780 This is a very serious thing.
00:53:57.760 Now, I did get it under control.
00:54:01.280 And the next night in Orlando, it wasn't that way.
00:54:05.700 But because there are 11,000 in the building in Fort Lauderdale, there were people who couldn't
00:54:13.140 grasp the concept that this was one of the only times that Donald Trump had been asked
00:54:20.600 serious questions about the world and the country because the corrupt media didn't want
00:54:26.540 to hear any of this and still doesn't.
00:54:28.540 And that brings me to Newsweek.
00:54:30.340 All right.
00:54:31.160 So Newsweek, one of the most corrupt pieces of garbage in the country, runs a piece that
00:54:38.400 says, oh, there were all these empty seats.
00:54:41.300 And then it's immediately picked up by the Daily Beast, Huffington Post, all of this crap.
00:54:46.960 All right.
00:54:47.180 Here's here's the timeline.
00:54:50.000 30,000 people have bought tickets to these four shows and the Texas shows on Saturday
00:54:55.700 and Sunday.
00:54:56.340 Houston, Dallas are still selling 30,000 people in the middle of a pandemic.
00:55:01.940 The show in Lauderdale grows $2 million and Newsweek puts out this garbage, this lie on purpose
00:55:12.660 to denigrate the show and it gets picked up and distributed.
00:55:18.020 Well, here's the thing that I thought of, Bill, as I was leaving before I heard any of
00:55:24.100 that this morning.
00:55:24.820 When I was leaving the venue, I looked at my staff and said, name another president from
00:55:30.860 either party that could have sold at $100 a pop an interview with him and sold that many
00:55:40.460 tickets.
00:55:41.740 I mean, I there's no one in the world.
00:55:44.280 No one would have done it.
00:55:45.420 No one in the middle of a pandemic.
00:55:47.060 Now, that's listen, there were people absolutely wanted to see the program, the show, but were
00:55:54.140 afraid to go, particularly elderly people.
00:55:58.060 All right.
00:55:58.280 And I know that to be true, but we are it.
00:56:02.120 This is probably the most successful political show of all time in the history.
00:56:09.680 It really it probably is.
00:56:11.220 I mean, I saw the I saw the Rolling Stones at the at the Cotton Bowl here a couple of weeks
00:56:15.820 ago, and there were a lot of unsold seats there as well.
00:56:19.680 But this was a good sized crowd.
00:56:21.420 Let me ask you this.
00:56:22.620 The the problem with the tickets, because this is what I heard, that somebody had hacked in
00:56:30.220 and made some of the tickets look like fraudulent.
00:56:33.240 And so that caused some of the delay.
00:56:36.120 People had to go to the will call.
00:56:38.680 Was there was there anything nefarious that was going on with that?
00:56:41.960 I didn't I didn't hear any of that at all.
00:56:45.020 The Secret Service had, you know, obviously, we've got that many people coming in.
00:56:51.340 It slowed it down as far as people getting into the arena.
00:56:56.100 And then there was you standing out there and it was a riot and people wanted to get your
00:57:01.060 autograph by myself, all by myself, kicking rocks in the parking lot, asking myself, why
00:57:06.400 the hell did I agree to do this for Bill?
00:57:08.380 I just don't get it.
00:57:09.100 You were a big hit.
00:57:10.080 That was good for you.
00:57:11.420 Thanks a lot, Bill.
00:57:12.040 I appreciate it.
00:57:13.240 All right.
00:57:13.660 Thanks for helping us out.
00:57:15.440 And we'll talk again later this week.
00:57:17.060 I hope you got it in Houston at the Toyota Center.
00:57:20.240 Tickets are still available at Toyota Center dot com.
00:57:22.700 And that is on the 18th, 19th in Dallas at the American Airlines Center, ticketmaster dot com.
00:57:30.880 I will tell you this.
00:57:32.380 Donald Trump is in a really good place right now.
00:57:36.280 I worried about that because he wasn't in a really good place just a few months ago.
00:57:42.360 If you remember at the beginning of the year, not a good place.
00:57:45.020 And he's in a really good place.
00:57:47.480 And I'm going to share some of the things that I learned from him in our interview.
00:57:51.600 I did a sit down with him about the future and that is going to air in January.
00:57:57.240 But I want to play a couple of cuts from that coming up in just a little while.
00:58:03.660 First, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins books.
00:58:05.780 These are books that are an absolute must if you are a parent or a grandparent, if you care about the country, you need to read these with your kids.
00:58:17.960 Tuttle Twins books.
00:58:19.520 They have toddlers and children's books that explore the principles of freedom using stories and pictures.
00:58:25.860 They have great stories that help teenagers.
00:58:29.200 Even you will learn a lot.
00:58:31.300 I learned a lot.
00:58:32.380 They have a free market curriculum with lessons that explore how free markets work so your kids understand supply, demand, inflation and how government intervention affects an economy.
00:58:42.500 They have the principles of liberty, things that our founders knew that our kids don't know and most of us probably don't even know.
00:58:51.520 I urge you to get these books for your kids and your grandkids.
00:58:56.080 They are going to be the ones that will be life or death for the republic.

00:59:13.900 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.
00:59:16.900 Ten seconds.
00:59:17.660 Station ID.
00:59:18.260 So, we know Bill made some news with his interview with the president on stage.
00:59:35.940 You conducted an interview at Mar-a-Lago as well, which is coming out on a podcast in January, right after the new year, kind of getting the new year started.
00:59:43.700 One of your focuses going in was how do you keep this looking only to the future?
00:59:51.540 Were you able to actually get him to talk about the future?
00:59:53.940 Was that the moment he was in?
00:59:55.700 Yeah.
00:59:56.160 He was really, really.
00:59:57.420 He was right on.
01:00:01.160 I said to him right before, I said, Mr. President, this one is going to be airing in January, so I want to look forward, not backward.
01:00:08.380 And he said, OK.
01:00:09.280 And I said, I'm going to just talk about the economy and everything that's going on.
01:00:15.220 So, whenever you're ready.
01:00:17.120 And he said, I'm ready now.
01:00:19.000 And we sat down and did the interview.
01:00:22.400 And he was on it.
01:00:24.120 I mean, he was throwing numbers out, you know, about how much we spend per kid and what China was doing and what Russia is doing and the supply chain.
01:00:35.740 That guy is on it.
01:00:37.920 He's on it.
01:00:38.760 He is crystal clear.
01:00:41.400 I honestly, looking at him and being around him, I feel older than he does.
01:00:48.480 I mean, I don't know what it is in his genes, but that guy is on top of it.
01:00:53.920 On top of it.
01:00:55.500 Did you ask him if he, I almost want to say, did you ask him off the air because he's not going to answer it on the air.
01:01:01.300 But did you talk to him at all about running and do you think he's running?
01:01:04.720 So, I haven't listened back to it yet.
01:01:09.340 But my producer that was there making notes, I saw her eyes go wide at one point.
01:01:17.820 We got off and she said, I can't believe you didn't follow up on that.
01:01:20.400 And I said, what?
01:01:20.940 And she said, he basically told you he was running.
01:01:25.100 And I didn't, I don't know why, but I didn't hear that.
01:01:29.460 But he, he went with the premise the whole time.
01:01:32.760 I just said, let's just assume.
01:01:34.300 Uh-huh.
01:01:35.160 So, what would you do?
01:01:36.340 And he never, he never said, now remember, I'm not running or, you know, what usually happens.
01:01:41.540 He had a typical disclaimer stuff.
01:01:42.760 Yeah, he put no disclaimers in there.
01:01:45.040 And we talked about the economy.
01:01:47.160 We talked about the dangers that are ahead.
01:01:52.760 Putin, in fact, I think we're going to play what he said about Putin and Joe Biden.
01:01:58.800 Because it's, it's, it's significant.
01:02:01.260 It's significant.
01:02:01.900 Did he use the word transitory at any point?
01:02:04.000 No, he didn't.
01:02:04.900 No, okay.
01:02:05.100 No, he didn't.
01:02:05.980 What was, what was his?
01:02:07.700 Yeah, okay.
01:02:08.600 Uh, shameful.
01:02:09.720 Mm-hmm.
01:02:10.680 Intentional.
01:02:11.720 Mm-hmm.
01:02:12.260 Um, uh, going to get harder and harder to fix.
01:02:16.620 Uh, but I fixed it before.
01:02:18.540 I guess I'll have to fix it again.
01:02:21.180 The intentional part of that is interesting.
01:02:23.160 So they did, he, because there's a, certainly, I think, a conflict between the idea that maybe
01:02:28.040 Joe Biden's just really bad at this job.
01:02:30.360 Yeah.
01:02:30.540 Or is it that Joe Biden's intentionally bad at this job?
01:02:33.400 He said, you can't look at all of the things that have happened and, uh, and not seriously
01:02:40.920 think this has got to be intentional.
01:02:44.260 He's like, everything that the man does is, is not in our favor.
01:02:48.220 Uh, you can't just, you can't flip a coin and be wrong that many times in a row, basically.
01:02:53.660 Yeah, correct.
01:02:55.440 Uh, it, it was, uh, it was fascinating.
01:02:59.000 I also asked him, will you abolish the department of ed?
01:03:03.380 Will you go in and clean house top to bottom, state department, CIA, NS, uh, NSC, all of these
01:03:14.000 things.
01:03:14.320 Uh, I named like about eight cabinet, uh, positions and said, fire, would you fire everyone top to
01:03:23.680 bottom?
01:03:23.980 Uh, wait till you hear that answer.
01:03:26.800 Wait till you hear that answer.
01:03:29.560 And you had dinner with the president.
01:03:32.840 Oh, I have to tell you about dinner.
01:03:34.380 Yeah.
01:03:34.740 Melania is first time I've ever met Melania.
01:03:37.040 Melania, she is more gracious and more beautiful in person, uh, than you, than you think she,
01:03:46.500 uh, wait until you hear an answer.
01:03:48.520 Well, Ricky, our producer was trying to get her to say something mean and she just wouldn't
01:03:54.900 do it.
01:03:57.840 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:04:02.320 All right.
01:04:03.200 Let me tell you about built bars built.com.
01:04:07.040 They say you can't take it with you, but I, you know, while I think that's probably
01:04:10.780 true, uh, you know, there's no, uh, there's not a U-Haul behind a hearse that I've ever
01:04:15.460 seen.
01:04:15.820 Although I might insist on one of those for my funeral, uh, just in case I like to, you
01:04:21.620 know, have built bars on me at all times.
01:04:23.420 Maybe I can have a snack, uh, on the way to that big radio station in the sky someday,
01:04:28.100 um, built built.com.
01:04:31.040 Every time you bite into a built bar, you'll feel like you died and went to heaven.
01:04:35.820 It is great.
01:04:36.700 They're candy bars, but they are healthy for you.
01:04:39.960 100% real chocolate also made high in protein and fiber, low in fat, low in carbs.
01:04:47.000 You can get them because, uh, I mean, once you have one, you will realize what I'm saying.
01:04:53.120 I'm not making up.
01:04:54.020 It tastes like a candy bar.
01:04:55.100 It's the, it's the closest thing that you'll ever find to something that you really, really
01:05:00.280 like, and it's supposed to be bad for you.
01:05:01.980 That's really, really good for you and low in calories.

01:05:20.440 So I was fortunate enough to sit with the president for about an hour for a special that is going
01:05:35.220 to air on Saturday.
01:05:36.400 I'm going to play a couple of clips here for you, uh, in a second.
01:05:39.360 Uh, but it'll, it'll air, uh, next January right at the beginning of the year.
01:05:44.360 Um, but I was at, uh, Mar-a-Lago and Mar-a-Lago is this incredible.
01:05:50.560 It is, it's the second largest mansion in Florida.
01:05:54.340 It was built in the 1920s.
01:05:56.600 I think it took him from 23 to 27 to build.
01:05:59.240 It was built by EF Hutton and, um, uh, Marjorie Merriweather post from the post, uh, money,
01:06:07.900 you know, the, the cereal people, uh, and they couldn't afford the cut upkeep by 1975.
01:06:15.220 And it is Mar-a-Lago means, I think from river to sea or from ocean to, I don't know, but
01:06:23.260 it, uh, it basically is sits and goes across all of West Palm.
01:06:29.080 So it's on the Gulf side and the ocean side, the other way.
01:06:33.200 Uh, and, uh, typical Donald, typical Donald Trump, they couldn't afford it anymore.
01:06:39.140 So they gave it to the state of Florida, the Merriweather post people gave it to the state
01:06:43.140 of Florida and said, you should fix this up.
01:06:45.720 And it could be the winter white house.
01:06:48.040 And, uh, so the state of Florida took it, made it a historic site and then couldn't afford
01:06:53.720 to, couldn't afford to do anything.
01:06:55.780 So, uh, uh, post, uh, they, uh, Congress, I think in 1980 took it, uh, and said, we don't
01:07:05.620 want, we don't want this.
01:07:07.440 Florida said, we don't want this.
01:07:08.700 It's too expensive.
01:07:09.900 And so they gave it back to the post family.
01:07:12.700 And so they put it up for sale for, I think, $20 million.
01:07:16.340 Donald Trump offers 15.
01:07:18.220 This is so Donald Trump offers 15 million for it.
01:07:22.340 Uh, and when they said, no, are you crazy?
01:07:26.100 It's worth more than that.
01:07:27.380 He bought the property just adjoining on the, the ocean side and said, well, okay, well,
01:07:36.080 I'm going to build my house right here and it'll obstruct your view.
01:07:39.740 And because they, everybody believed him, he got it for 10 million.
01:07:44.880 Is that not Donald Trump?
01:07:47.060 Trump, he is a genius at a cutthroat, but a genius at negotiation, a genius.
01:07:54.820 Um, I asked him, I said, so you got it for 10 million.
01:07:58.320 He sold the furniture, which raised $10 million.
01:08:01.200 So he paid for it immediately.
01:08:03.020 Um, and then he was going to make it into a private house.
01:08:06.300 Uh, and he lived in it for about, I don't even know, eight years, maybe.
01:08:10.720 Uh, then when he hit hard times, he wanted to make it into a hotel.
01:08:14.400 It's a national historic site.
01:08:16.000 They couldn't do that.
01:08:16.740 So he made it into a, uh, a, um, uh, croquet club and you can now go and stay there and
01:08:26.180 have dinner, et cetera, et cetera.
01:08:27.680 If you're part of the club, let me just give you the stats on this thing.
01:08:30.440 It is, by the way, Mar-a-Lago means sea to lake.
01:08:33.260 That's what it is.
01:08:34.400 Um, it has 58 bedrooms, uh, 33 bathrooms, a 29 foot long, uh, marble top dining table,
01:08:45.860 12 fire, fireplaces, and three bomb shelters.
01:08:49.600 Just the three, just the three, just the three, it is, it's spectacular.
01:08:55.380 I asked him if I could come back and do a documentary on Mar-a-Lago.
01:08:59.360 Cause it is beautiful.
01:09:00.720 The way he has redone it, it's stunning.
01:09:04.340 I mean, it's, it's better than the breakers.
01:09:06.960 Uh, the breakers is held by the United States government and it's dusty and musty.
01:09:12.800 And the Mar-a-Lago is pristine and it's, it's remarkable.
01:09:18.420 So anyway, we were there and we were in this, um, this little place that must've been like
01:09:23.220 the children's theater or a place back in the twenties where, you know, somebody would
01:09:27.680 come to sing or play the piano.
01:09:29.420 It had a little teeny stage in it and could probably fit about 30 people sitting down.
01:09:34.680 And, uh, we were in that room and we started to talk and I, I'm going to play a couple of
01:09:40.320 cuts here for you.
01:09:41.260 This is from the special that will air, uh, next January.
01:09:46.400 Here is cut one.
01:09:48.220 When we were talking about Russia, Putin and Biden.
01:09:52.040 The, one of the first things that Joe Biden did was to stop the Keystone pipeline and then
01:09:58.820 say to Russia, you can build your pipeline.
01:10:02.580 That's something that Reagan forever.
01:10:05.320 We've been saying, don't do that.
01:10:07.880 Poland begged him.
01:10:09.320 Ukraine begged him.
01:10:10.480 Don't do that.
01:10:11.920 You had, I stopped it.
01:10:13.860 You had stopped it.
01:10:15.000 It was done.
01:10:15.700 Correct.
01:10:16.860 If, if you would have done that, people would have said, see there, he's in bed.
01:10:20.800 He's friends with Putin.
01:10:21.480 He loves Putin.
01:10:22.820 You know, it's like crazy.
01:10:23.920 I watched, this is being taped in, uh, what is it, November or December, um, and we'll be
01:10:31.420 airing in January.
01:10:32.820 But I think it was this week.
01:10:34.740 I watched Putin look at Joe Biden.
01:10:38.800 Putin.
01:10:39.800 I didn't see respect or fear, uh, from him.
01:10:43.300 Fear of the United States or respect for the United States.
01:10:46.080 True.
01:10:46.440 Um, it, you know, Putin, you know how he thinks, you know how to deal with him.
01:10:55.120 Is he going to move into Ukraine, do you think?
01:10:58.180 Well, it's looking like that.
01:10:59.440 Uh, you know, when Biden told him about, well, he was talking about sanctions.
01:11:04.140 When Biden says sanctions, Putin's saying sanctions.
01:11:07.560 If they're only going to sanction, then there's no sanction that's going to stop me from taking
01:11:13.060 over a country.
01:11:14.120 And by the way, it's a massive piece of land in an unbelievable location.
01:11:18.440 Right.
01:11:18.580 You know that, but he didn't say there could be very serious consequence.
01:11:23.600 A sanction is not a serious consequence, no matter how strong it is.
01:11:26.540 Not when it comes to taking over a country.
01:11:29.840 And there was no fear.
01:11:33.000 Let me play one more, uh, one more clip.
01:11:35.660 He, he, do we have the China clip?
01:11:38.800 Is that what we're going to play next?
01:11:40.460 No, this is Fauci.
01:11:41.740 Listen to what he said about Fauci.
01:11:44.100 Before we leave, I know you're on a tight schedule.
01:11:45.980 I think Melania was one of the-
01:11:50.460 No, stop, stop, stop.
01:11:51.000 That's cut 14.
01:11:51.800 Cut 13, please.
01:11:53.040 Jackie, I think when, when this was coming out of China, it was perfectly reasonable to
01:11:58.040 shut everything down because we didn't know.
01:12:00.520 They were welding people into their homes in China.
01:12:03.540 We had no idea and they weren't being opened.
01:12:05.220 And by the way, they weld them in and they never opened.
01:12:07.640 Right.
01:12:07.740 And that was the end of them.
01:12:10.480 Fauci, I wanted to give, I want to give everybody the benefit of the doubt in those early days.
01:12:15.060 I understand.
01:12:15.480 We have done a ton of research.
01:12:17.880 I did one of the biggest chalkboards I think I've ever done.
01:12:20.280 Right.
01:12:21.060 Um, they were using federal government money to do, um, uh.
01:12:27.380 Wuhan.
01:12:28.000 Yeah, in Wuhan.
01:12:28.940 I stopped it.
01:12:30.020 Right.
01:12:30.560 I was the one that stopped it.
01:12:31.960 Well, you did, but I don't think Fauci, uh, cared about that.
01:12:36.080 Fauci's now claiming he's science.
01:12:39.020 Did you ever, did you ever, would he still be working for you today?
01:12:45.320 No, not now, but, but he's a great promoter.
01:12:49.020 He's not a great doctor, but he's a great promoter.
01:12:51.600 But you have to understand everything he wanted, I didn't do.
01:12:54.060 As an example, he wanted to keep it open to China.
01:12:57.020 He ultimately was wrong about that and admitted it and admitted that I saved tens of thousands
01:13:02.540 of lives.
01:13:03.440 He wanted to keep it open.
01:13:05.040 I saw what was happening in Italy and France and Spain and I closed it to Europe very early.
01:13:10.560 You know, in China, it was January I closed it and in Europe, it was shortly thereafter.
01:13:14.960 We saved thousands and thousands of lives.
01:13:18.200 He wanted to do that.
01:13:19.100 And then his big, one of them all is the masks are useless.
01:13:24.280 They don't mean anything.
01:13:25.160 And then all of a sudden he wants you to wear 10 masks, you know, wear as many as you can,
01:13:29.160 put them all over, cover your ears, do everything.
01:13:31.640 So I didn't really do much of what he said.
01:13:36.300 And he wasn't a big factor for me in a sense because of that.
01:13:43.240 It's an interesting interview and he's in a really good place.
01:13:48.580 And I think I understand him, uh, even more, he, um, he feels a great deal of loyalty to
01:14:03.980 the people who have supported him.
01:14:05.900 I mean, the one thing I've learned about Donald Trump is loyalty is everything.
01:14:10.800 That is probably the highest virtue to him.
01:14:14.760 Uh, and it goes two ways, loyalty to him and loyalty to his friends.
01:14:20.320 And he considers the people that voted for him friends.
01:14:25.180 And I think that's what the press meets when he does rallies.
01:14:28.780 It's like sitting down at, uh, you know, some, some guy's living room and watching TV together.
01:14:37.200 And he's like, ah, you know what?
01:14:38.540 You know, it was really crazy.
01:14:40.040 I mean, he's, he just relates to people and just talks to people like people.
01:14:45.540 And, and the press isn't used to that.
01:14:48.020 Uh, and nor do they like that.
01:14:50.180 He's not an elitist, which is really crazy because of all of the gold rooms that surround him.
01:14:58.260 He seems like he could very easily be elitist, but he's not.
01:15:02.140 Um, and so he's very confusing, uh, if you're, if you just want to put people in boxes, but
01:15:09.520 he said he, um, you know, he didn't make any announcements, but, uh, when we talked about
01:15:18.800 the, um, the idea of him running again, he spoke about the, uh, the people that he feels in a way
01:15:35.680 were let down, um, that, you know, he promised to, uh, do certain things.
01:15:42.060 He did them, uh, and he can't let, he can't let those people down.
01:15:48.600 He's got to go in and correct these problems.
01:15:53.460 Again, he didn't make any announcement at all that, that I felt.
01:15:56.760 Um, but he spoke about the obligation that he feels from the people who support him, that
01:16:04.460 they love the country.
01:16:05.720 He loves the country.
01:16:06.960 You know, these Marxists that are in destroying everything, uh, and look at the state of the
01:16:14.720 economy and he feels he's uniquely positioned to fix that.
01:16:18.780 And I, I think he is, I think he is.
01:16:22.200 We're going to play one more cut before we go today.
01:16:24.460 Um, in about an hour, uh, with, uh, with Melania, she was a remarkable, remarkable woman.
01:16:32.660 And he invited us to dinner after I finished and he said to the whole crew and one of the
01:16:37.480 guys was just wearing jeans and a t-shirt, I think.
01:16:40.180 And, uh, he's like, you guys want to have dinner?
01:16:42.860 And said, well, it was either that or McDonald's.
01:16:46.000 So either that or Bill O'Reilly at Applebee's.
01:16:48.620 So we'll take that.
01:16:50.240 And, um, so we had dinner and met Melania for the first time.
01:16:55.420 She is more gracious than you would expect.
01:16:59.840 And you would expect her to be gracious.
01:17:01.400 She's always seemed gracious.
01:17:03.680 Um, but I found her to be remarkable.
01:17:08.040 And we took something that she said two different ways.
01:17:10.880 Ricky, who is our executive producer, who I think just wanted her to lash out just for
01:17:18.980 her own satisfaction, you know, just for, because Melania should lash out because she was treated
01:17:24.320 like a dog by the press.
01:17:27.100 Uh, and so Ricky wanted some, some satisfaction of, yes, she saw it and she was pissed.
01:17:33.160 Um, and she wouldn't give it to her.
01:17:36.600 Now, Ricky feels that it was kind of like, oh, well, why don't you have some sweet tea?
01:17:43.720 Oh, well, bless your heart.
01:17:45.780 And you know what that means?
01:17:47.260 I don't think so.
01:17:48.400 I think she was just completely sincere.
01:17:51.400 Uh, Ricky said, what do you think of the, uh, new, the new Christmas decorations at the
01:17:56.080 White House, which I personally think are atrocious, but who cares?
01:18:02.200 Melania said, well, you know, the wonderful thing about, uh, this country is we all can have
01:18:11.760 different, uh, uh, uh, uh, different, uh, how would it, what was it, likes, uh, or, uh, opinions.
01:18:18.940 We can all have different, uh, opinions and different tastes and it all works out.
01:18:24.640 I'm like, oh my gosh, that is so sweet.
01:18:27.940 And that's when Ricky was thinking, why bless their heart.
01:18:32.620 Yeah, bless their heart.
01:18:34.420 They're the Biden administration.
01:18:37.420 Perfect night's sleep.

01:19:51.460 You are listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:19:55.660 Glenn, there's a new story that came out today, and it sounds negative at first, and I want
01:20:00.800 to warn you.
01:20:01.380 All right.
01:20:01.760 Sounds negative.
01:20:02.500 It sounds negative at first.
01:20:03.540 But it's not going to end negative.
01:20:04.580 We can turn this around.
01:20:05.580 All right.
01:20:05.900 Okay.
01:20:06.240 Okay.
01:20:06.520 Okay.
01:20:07.060 Now, as you know, I'm a huge LeBron James fan.
01:20:09.700 Oh, you love him.
01:20:11.400 Yeah.
01:20:11.560 Really excited for all of his efforts.
01:20:15.240 There is a...
01:20:15.880 So, if you remember, the one thing that people say when you say LeBron James is a terrible
01:20:19.720 human being is they will mention he started a school.
01:20:23.960 And he did, kind of.
01:20:25.480 And there's some details around that we don't need to get into right now.
01:20:27.820 Let's just give him full credit for the school today.
01:20:29.900 Sure.
01:20:30.320 Why?
01:20:31.320 Well, the principal of the LeBron James I Promise School has resigned after slapping
01:20:36.480 an 11-year-old student in the face.
01:20:38.440 Now, this sounds like a negative story.
01:20:42.260 And I can understand how you might react that way.
01:20:44.340 Sure.
01:20:45.340 In fact, it was actually pretty bad.
01:20:47.600 The busted lip and was bleeding.
01:20:49.240 Mm-hmm.
01:20:49.600 Okay.
01:20:50.480 She eventually texted the mom.
01:20:52.320 Mom not happy about the whole situation.
01:20:55.060 Shockingly.
01:20:55.500 However, the good thing about this story is when the kid was slapped by the principal
01:21:03.120 of LeBron James' school, the kid was masked.
01:21:07.900 Oh, my goodness.
01:21:08.620 And therefore, preventing the spread of COVID-19.
01:21:10.920 Oh, my gosh.
01:21:11.180 That is great.
01:21:12.180 Yes.
01:21:12.720 That is great.
01:21:13.700 That's really...
01:21:14.480 So, he made the kid bleed through the mask.
01:21:18.040 Yeah.
01:21:18.980 Through the mask.
01:21:20.200 I mean, because you hit someone with a cloth mask on their face, so you have to get it
01:21:23.780 pretty hard to get bleeding out of it.
01:21:25.980 I mean, in all seriousness, it's a pretty disturbing story.
01:21:29.820 And...
01:21:29.980 But not a shock from LeBron James' school.
01:21:33.760 Not really.
01:21:34.220 Not at all.
01:21:34.500 No.
01:21:34.600 Now, do I have evidence that LeBron James texted this particular principal and asked her to
01:21:42.020 hit the child?
01:21:42.720 No.
01:21:42.740 But you don't mind speculation.
01:21:44.420 Absolutely not.
01:21:45.020 I just want to say I don't have that evidence at this time.
01:21:46.940 Yeah.
01:21:46.960 All right.
01:21:47.220 I just want to make sure people know...
01:21:49.720 You don't.
01:21:50.320 I don't have that evidence.
01:21:51.520 I don't.
01:21:52.020 Right.
01:21:52.140 I'm not claiming to have it.
01:21:53.400 Right.
01:21:53.820 Nor can I produce it at this time.
01:21:55.620 What I can produce is don'tbealebron.com.
01:21:58.500 You can get your Don't Be an Idiot, Don't Be a LeBron t-shirt.
01:22:01.140 That I can promise you.
01:22:01.820 That's there.
01:22:02.400 That's real, Glenn.
01:22:03.440 Well, you don't know that the other isn't real.
01:22:05.380 You just don't have the evidence yet.
01:22:06.320 I don't have any evidence on it whatsoever, therefore can't produce it.
01:22:09.920 Yeah.
01:22:11.060 But...
01:22:11.300 We'll keep listening and watching for that, Stu.
01:22:14.020 Thank you very much.
01:22:14.840 You're welcome.
01:22:15.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:22:19.080 Let me tell you a little bit about Echelon.
01:22:21.260 If you've ever looked at exercise equipment, it is nosebleed expensive, especially if you
01:22:26.680 get the snotty bike that rhymes with Echelon.
01:22:30.400 It is...
01:22:31.800 First of all, I think it's uncomfortable.
01:22:34.260 Yes, I have ridden on one.
01:22:36.980 They're uncomfortable.
01:22:37.960 I think it's uncomfortable because they keep making you move your legs all the time.
01:22:40.860 That's not an unfair criticism.
01:22:41.800 That's exactly right.
01:22:42.960 Anyway, if you are looking for a great exercise bike or any kind of exercise equipment, Echelon.
01:22:50.060 I want you to check out Echelon.

01:23:25.120 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:23:50.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:59.700 Hello, America.
01:24:01.320 Welcome to the program.
01:24:03.340 Jim Cramer says we're in the strongest economy he's ever seen.
01:24:07.420 Wow.
01:24:08.020 I wonder what happened there.
01:24:09.500 Also, the voice of a tornado survivor today.
01:24:12.980 And what did Putin do when he hung up the phone with Joe Biden after talking about Ukraine?
01:24:21.820 Actions speak louder than words.
01:24:24.780 What did Putin do?
01:24:26.660 We'll tell you in 60 seconds.
01:24:29.000 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:24:34.460 The CEO of Goldman Sachs just said publicly that he expects to see lower returns on stocks for the next few years.
01:24:42.480 Gee, sounds like the old market's overinflated or a giant bubble, maybe.
01:24:47.040 Maybe it's time to take some of the winnings off the table and move them into something more conservative, something that will protect that asset of yours.
01:24:56.660 Time-tested winner, as always, is precious metals.
01:25:00.860 Gold and silver are where you want to be when the next crash comes, and it could be closer than you think.
01:25:06.360 I invest in gold as a hedge against insanity and chaos, because in the end, that is something physical that you can hold in your hand that the world has always returned to.
01:25:19.500 I know, I know, this time it's different, except that's what they say every time.
01:25:24.740 Call Goldline this week to learn about how to diversify and protect a portion of your investment portfolio with precious metals.
01:25:31.120 This week, Goldline is offering 6% in promotional metals in qualifying self-directed IRA acquisitions.
01:25:37.980 So call and speak with an account executive right now.
01:25:40.840 They're waiting for your call at 866-GOLDLINE.
01:25:43.240 1-866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.
01:25:47.400 CBS News Sunday morning had First Lady Jill Biden on.
01:26:02.740 We don't have the audio for you because nobody ever thought CBS Sunday morning was important to tape.
01:26:10.340 So I'm just going to give you the transcript.
01:26:12.060 They had Jill Biden on, and they talked to her about the plummeting polls, and she said, you know, during the campaign, Joe made certain promises, things that he would do, and we're going through a pandemic, which no one would have anticipated.
01:26:27.900 Wait a minute.
01:26:28.940 Stu, help me out.
01:26:30.020 During the campaign, Joe made certain promises, things that he would do, but we're going through a pandemic, which no one could have anticipated.
01:26:38.840 Yeah, they're basically saying that, you know, the COVID-19 pandemic would not be something you could have foreseen in 2020 when the election was going on.
01:26:47.480 But the pandemic was going on in 2020 when the election was going on.
01:26:53.320 Well, the COVID-21 pandemic.
01:26:57.100 Right, okay.
01:26:57.680 Not the COVID-19 pandemic, the COVID-21 pandemic.
01:27:00.180 Okay.
01:27:00.780 Which is...
01:27:01.440 Which is, that's not what...
01:27:02.580 Anyway, so he came in, and he did his American rescue plan, which rescued America.
01:27:11.140 Has it rescued a...
01:27:13.080 Because if this is your rescue, thank you, I'll stay in the lifeboat.
01:27:16.900 Millions of families got money because they were desperate.
01:27:20.400 We have vaccines for kids ages five and up that, quite honestly, nobody wants.
01:27:24.980 And now with the infrastructure plan, we're going to have better roads and better buildings so we don't have asbestos and better drinking water.
01:27:35.820 So the reporter, Rita Braver, said, so you figure once the public comprehends this, things will turn around?
01:27:43.200 I do.
01:27:44.160 I do.
01:27:45.340 Yeah, I don't think so.
01:27:47.300 So, you know, getting rid of asbestos, sure, important, but I don't see that on any poll.
01:27:54.740 Really?
01:27:55.020 No, I don't.
01:27:56.080 I don't.
01:27:56.780 You don't see that topping the list of all concerns?
01:27:59.320 I don't.
01:27:59.840 It is ahead of global warming, so that's good.
01:28:02.380 It is a higher concern than that, but that's about it.
01:28:06.580 Right, right.
01:28:08.360 They also asked if she was, you know, worried about her, you know, husband's mental decline.
01:28:13.780 And he said, she said, I mean, this is ridiculous.
01:28:17.120 Joe's on the phone every single minute of the day talking to governors who are calling him and Nancy Pelosi.
01:28:22.060 That's why we're worried about it, because he keeps calling the same people over and over again.
01:28:25.600 It's like, Joe, we just talked five minutes ago.
01:28:28.160 Do you not remember that?
01:28:29.220 He's on Zoom.
01:28:30.220 He's doing fundraisers.
01:28:31.520 He's doing briefings.
01:28:32.840 I mean, he doesn't stop from nine in the morning till 11 at night.
01:28:37.340 Does anybody believe that?
01:28:38.720 I was just going to say that thing, same thing.
01:28:41.660 No way.
01:28:43.300 No way.
01:28:44.480 I understand.
01:28:45.700 The person that we're talking about here is your husband, and you're going to say nice things about him,
01:28:50.100 but no one believes that he's working from, what was it, 9 a.m.?
01:28:54.680 9 a.m.
01:28:55.680 To 11 p.m.
01:28:57.060 Nobody believes that.
01:28:57.880 No way.
01:28:58.380 Nobody believes that.
01:28:59.320 Nope.
01:29:00.240 On the phone the whole time, in meetings the whole time.
01:29:03.760 Nope.
01:29:04.200 Well, I mean, it's almost a worse case scenario for him.
01:29:08.360 Like, if this is him doing the work, because I mean, like, you want to give him a break, maybe he's just really tired, and he's going to bed at 5 p.m., and he's not doing anything.
01:29:17.880 That's the better case scenario here.
01:29:20.660 You know?
01:29:21.040 I mean, have you seen, did you see the pictures that came out of Afghanistan over the weekend?
01:29:26.680 No.
01:29:27.520 The country is in full economic collapse.
01:29:31.600 Of course it is.
01:29:31.960 Now, shockingly, this incredibly talented economic crew of the Taliban is not able to manage their economy all that well.
01:29:40.960 But, like, people are starving.
01:29:43.220 Forget the terrorism and the things that we expected going in.
01:29:47.380 This is also expected, but a different element here, where the entire country has collapsed.
01:29:53.760 And we keep, you know, we said this, and I think it's correct in some ways, but a lot of people said, like, you know, we were there for 20 years, and all of this was for nothing.
01:30:03.020 You know, it really wasn't for nothing.
01:30:04.640 I mean, the life of the people there was a lot better than when we got there in 2001.
01:30:10.380 And there was a lot of people that, you know, a lot of women had freedom for the very first time.
01:30:16.040 People who were born the day we went in experienced school.
01:30:20.740 The women, the girls, experienced school for the first time.
01:30:25.640 Yeah, famously, obviously, when the Taliban was there, the female schooling rate was, like, literally 0%, right?
01:30:32.680 But people forget that before the Taliban got there, it was, like, 20%.
01:30:36.660 It wasn't, like, it wasn't a good situation.
01:30:39.960 When our last numbers before we left Afghanistan, the numbers were in the 80s.
01:30:45.560 80% of girls going to school.
01:30:47.860 And that is going to crash back down again to close to zero in the middle of a complete economic collapse.
01:30:56.420 And I think it's a fair argument for us to say.
01:30:59.720 There's probably many people in the audience making this point inside their heads that it's not our job to micromanage their economy.
01:31:06.760 It's not our job to make sure their kids go to school.
01:31:09.420 It's not our job to make the life of Afghani citizens better.
01:31:12.920 And that's all fair, I think, true from a policy perspective.
01:31:16.600 Did not have to happen this way.
01:31:18.340 Did not have to be complete and utter collapse immediately.
01:31:20.940 Did not have to be turned over to a group of people who have outwardly advocated for the death of women who don't follow all of their rules to a T for decades.
01:31:31.380 Did not have to happen like this.
01:31:32.700 It also doesn't have to happen in our own United States.
01:31:34.900 You know, we brought in some of the female governors from Afghanistan, and one of them is now speaking out and saying, I can't get the State Department to listen.
01:31:46.580 But I came in and they have brought terrorists into America.
01:31:51.660 I know I've seen them.
01:31:54.440 And you got to stop this.
01:31:56.600 And nobody is paying any attention.
01:31:58.660 But that's probably because we're all celebrating about the economy.
01:32:01.820 I don't know if you heard Jim Cramer, but he says this is the strongest economy he's ever seen.
01:32:07.460 Right.
01:32:07.920 First of all, to me, we have the strongest economy perhaps I have ever seen.
01:32:11.920 See that number this morning, unemployment number?
01:32:13.540 It's the best in years.
01:32:14.420 It's not best in 69.
01:32:15.900 We have all spotted the endless help wanted signs, the housing and apartment shortages, the tremendous demand for goods and services.
01:32:23.140 A marvel to behold.
01:32:25.060 Oh, people are confident about their jobs.
01:32:26.720 I say fantastic.
01:32:27.660 And the ability to even get better ones if they want to.
01:32:30.360 They're spending more than I've ever seen, but they're doing it with cash, not on credit.
01:32:33.680 They're doing so in a Roaring Twenties style.
01:32:37.420 Okay.
01:32:37.880 First of all, the Roaring Twenties didn't end well because it was all paper and just all hype.
01:32:45.380 That's why by the end of the Roaring Twenties it was.
01:32:48.480 Wait a minute.
01:32:48.820 You've done show after show after show about the Roaring Twenties.
01:32:51.600 At the end, it was all about hype.
01:32:54.140 At the end, people got...
01:32:55.260 You're not bashing Calvin Coolidge here, are you?
01:32:56.500 No, I'm not.
01:32:56.860 I'm not sure we're not going down that road.
01:32:58.240 It started as real economic recovery.
01:33:02.800 It was real economic recovery.
01:33:05.440 And by about the time of 1928, it started to get out of control.
01:33:11.220 27, 28, people were just caught up.
01:33:14.640 You know, people invest in the stock market.
01:33:18.080 Americans are different.
01:33:19.140 They buy high, not low.
01:33:21.660 You know what I mean?
01:33:22.660 Yay.
01:33:23.260 I know.
01:33:24.320 When everybody's doing it, that's when we want it.
01:33:28.340 And that's not a good trait for, you know, Americans.
01:33:31.420 For investing.
01:33:32.120 For investing, yeah.
01:33:33.040 So, by 1927, 28, the average person was starting to get into the stock market, and they were leveraging their homes, and it had become insanity at the very end.
01:33:46.140 So, that's what I think we're in right now.
01:33:49.040 If he wants to talk about the 1920s, first of all, it's the big guys that are all, you know, just roaring into the stock market.
01:33:57.840 Everybody else, I don't think people are in the stock market right now to get thinking, I've got to mortgage my home to be able to get into the stock market because it's that good.
01:34:11.920 It's all of the free money that is coming from the government to these big institutions that are investing in the market.
01:34:18.540 Yeah, and I think, like, look, there are some economic indicators that are not terrible right now.
01:34:22.500 But you have to put that in context, right?
01:34:24.400 We've just dumped $8 trillion into this economy over the past two years.
01:34:29.380 I mean, anybody can buy short-term economic sugar, right?
01:34:35.700 You can buy some of that.
01:34:38.040 We're already seeing the negatives of that, though.
01:34:41.440 We're seeing a workforce that doesn't want to work.
01:34:44.020 We're seeing inflation that's going crazy.
01:34:46.900 We're seeing housing markets so that people can't afford housing in the areas where they should be able to afford it.
01:34:52.000 And, you know, we're seeing supply chain disruptions.
01:34:56.140 All of this has to do with the events surrounding this entire infusion of capital into the market, printing money.
01:35:04.980 And, you know, yeah, you can get some...
01:35:06.880 There are positive benefits.
01:35:08.060 Anytime, you know, like, if you want to have a stimulus plan where you're just going to pay everybody a million dollars,
01:35:12.480 I mean, there'd probably be a short time where that would seem like it was working really well.
01:35:16.520 The problem, though, is long-term, what are the consequences?
01:35:20.000 And we're already seeing them.
01:35:22.040 We're seeing the negatives.
01:35:23.460 We're seeing wages rise, yes, by about 4%.
01:35:28.180 And then you see what prices are doing, and the 4% doesn't feel that good to most people.
01:35:33.400 Because, yes, maybe their money has gone up slightly.
01:35:36.160 And that's an economy-wide number, too.
01:35:39.980 That doesn't mean that everybody is getting raises from day to day.
01:35:43.160 They're not getting a raise every month as inflation increases.
01:35:47.260 They're just dealing with it.
01:35:48.420 They're eating it.
01:35:49.680 You know, they're suffering under this.
01:35:52.880 And while there are some economic indicators you can point to for hope,
01:35:57.000 they've been doing that for a long time, Glenn.
01:35:59.640 You know, this has been a long-time pitch.
01:36:01.980 This transitory pitch was based off of those numbers.
01:36:06.240 And there's two people in particular that, you know, were called by the White House.
01:36:10.740 And, hey, can you help us out?
01:36:11.920 One of them was Jim Cramer.
01:36:13.180 One of them was Don Lemon.
01:36:15.100 And both of those guys last week were all over the economy.
01:36:18.320 It's fantastic.
01:36:19.680 People are working.
01:36:20.520 No, they're not.
01:36:21.620 No, they're not.
01:36:22.500 Jobs.
01:36:23.720 Jobs are wanted everywhere.
01:36:26.220 I'm not jobs.
01:36:27.920 Employees are wanted for jobs everywhere.
01:36:31.660 And as Stu said, people aren't working.
01:36:33.940 When he says, look at the demand and the supply.
01:36:37.820 You know, we've got so much demand right now.
01:36:39.880 Yeah, because the system is clogged.
01:36:43.040 You know, how many people have been waiting for something for a very long time?
01:36:46.560 The system is broken.
01:36:49.020 And, you know, I'm disappointed in Jim Cramer.
01:36:53.180 I mean, I think.
01:36:53.780 I like Jim Cramer.
01:36:54.480 I do, too.
01:36:55.220 We've always liked him.
01:36:56.200 And look, he has a different take on the economy.
01:36:58.780 That's not the biggest deal in the world.
01:36:59.940 Doesn't make him a bad guy, obviously.
01:37:01.220 Yeah, but he's.
01:37:01.760 Come on.
01:37:02.540 Do you really think he believes that?
01:37:04.820 I don't know.
01:37:05.280 I mean, I don't know.
01:37:06.120 I mean, he's.
01:37:07.380 You know, Jim has always been a pretty optimistic guy in the economy, I would say.
01:37:10.760 So he may very well believe it.
01:37:12.400 But I think that, you know, that doesn't.
01:37:15.260 Obviously, he would allow this as well.
01:37:17.780 He has a lot of people who disagree with him on his show.
01:37:20.200 And we have them on ours.
01:37:21.620 I think you see a major difference of opinion here.
01:37:23.900 I hope he's right, man.
01:37:26.500 Yeah, me too.
01:37:27.220 Maybe this is going to turn out all right.
01:37:30.100 But how many times has it occurred before?
01:37:32.740 When's the last time an economy attempted something like this and it worked out?
01:37:35.940 I don't remember it.
01:37:36.800 I can't think of it worldwide.
01:37:38.400 And let me give you this.
01:37:39.220 These are all the same experts that said, no, I mean, Joe Biden gave him warning, gave
01:37:43.740 Putin all kinds of warning.
01:37:45.340 He laid down the law with Vladimir Putin, told him, don't you dare go into Ukraine.
01:37:51.160 You've got far too many troops on the border.
01:37:54.420 Let me just play this from ABC.
01:37:56.480 This is the report from the weekend on what Vladimir Putin did after his conference with
01:38:05.000 Joe Biden.
01:38:05.900 I mean, he is moving in those troops.
01:38:07.940 After that call with President Biden, they added more troops.
01:38:11.880 They added at least 10,000 more troops.
01:38:14.580 So I 10,000, 10,000 more troops.
01:38:18.500 This is going really well.
01:38:19.720 Oh, it is.
01:38:20.440 It is.
01:38:21.020 So thank you very much.

01:39:37.620 Ten seconds.
01:39:38.480 Station ID.
01:39:41.820 So I spent some time with the president over the weekend on Friday and Saturday, did an
01:39:58.400 interview with him.
01:39:59.100 And I wanted to play a final cut from that interview because he's he they've put a new
01:40:04.800 book out and it is it is really beautiful.
01:40:08.140 All the pictures of the four years in the in the White House.
01:40:13.460 And I want you to listen to him discuss it and why it says a lot about him.
01:40:17.980 Here it is.
01:40:18.800 Before we leave, I know you're on a tight schedule.
01:40:22.040 I think Melania was one of the best first ladies Jackie O quality.
01:40:29.080 Right.
01:40:29.180 Um, she restored the White House garden.
01:40:32.520 She didn't change it.
01:40:33.440 She restored it to Jackie O and got slaughtered for it.
01:40:37.000 So beautiful the job.
01:40:38.500 So beautiful.
01:40:39.100 The book that you guys are putting out, the coffee table book.
01:40:42.600 A, I hope it has focused somewhat on her work that she did.
01:40:49.480 And B is, did you do a coffee table picture book because there's another four years that
01:40:59.680 you're going to have to write to put it into a real biography of your presidential years?
01:41:04.080 So we did a book which has been selling like hotcakes, 150,000 in the first two weeks.
01:41:10.320 And, and normally a book like that won't sell to the same extent, you know, because they're
01:41:14.800 waiting for the other book where I talk about a lot of stories.
01:41:17.800 Yeah.
01:41:18.040 But I write about certain photos.
01:41:20.360 I did it really for a different reason.
01:41:22.940 It's so sad, our country right now.
01:41:25.220 I don't think we've ever been lower.
01:41:26.760 And despite all of the witch hunts and the phony Russia, Russia, Russia, impeachments,
01:41:31.800 it was a beautiful time.
01:41:33.420 We had the greatest economy in history.
01:41:35.440 We then had the China virus come in and then I rebuilt the economy.
01:41:38.880 I really rebuilt it twice.
01:41:40.640 The second time harder than the first.
01:41:42.800 But we had the greatest economy, the greatest everything.
01:41:45.260 It was a glamour period.
01:41:46.340 It was a beautiful period.
01:41:47.860 And now I see what's happening with energy, with inflation, with the military, with these
01:41:54.680 clowns.
01:41:55.600 Uh, and I said, you know what, let's put out a book talking about how beautiful it was
01:42:00.620 because we're going to make it that way again.
01:42:03.540 And it's people like you that really, you have done such an incredible job.
01:42:07.900 You give people hope.
01:42:09.320 It's so important because there are not a lot of people that understand that word hope,
01:42:14.800 but you give people hope and you have for a long time.
01:42:17.720 And I really commend you on it.
01:42:19.340 So the, um, that was the feeling that I got in the entire time I spent with the president
01:42:26.720 was hope.
01:42:28.620 He is very hopeful.
01:42:30.760 Uh, he is forward looking, uh, and he is going to respond to you.
01:42:37.560 He is, you know, when you see this interview, it's, it's made for the new year looking forward.
01:42:44.440 What do we have to face?
01:42:45.500 I asked him about the GOP.
01:42:47.120 How are you going to do anything if you have the same kind of GOP in Congress and the Senate?
01:42:53.480 Oh, he went off on a few people that needed to be replaced.
01:42:56.600 Um, but, uh, he, he spoke about that and he spoke about the, the dedication, uh, that is
01:43:06.780 going to take in four years to really turn things around.
01:43:11.260 Uh, that interview will air on blaze TV next January.

01:43:58.820 have a conservative in your life and you're thinking they need a good Christmas present
01:44:02.800 and then you're thinking crap, like it's probably too late to get anything delivered at this
01:44:07.680 point.
01:44:08.260 Yeah.
01:44:08.700 Uh, you know, it was just print out the, uh, print out the page of whatever shirt you're
01:44:13.220 purchasing them and it'll be there eventually.
01:44:15.020 Yeah.
01:44:15.660 Eventually.
01:44:16.240 Yeah.
01:44:16.420 I don't know when it's coming, coming in, but you'll at least give them something you
01:44:19.060 can put in the car.
01:44:19.440 I put this in the darn blaze and, uh, wait, uh, supply chain.
01:44:24.840 I didn't forget to order.
01:44:27.300 I don't blame it on us.
01:44:28.080 We don't care.
01:44:28.520 It's coming from China though.
01:44:29.640 Say it's Glenn's fault.
01:44:30.920 Wait a minute.
01:44:31.340 Glenn Beck.
01:44:32.100 He screwed this whole thing up.
01:44:33.560 He screwed the order and I, he's a bad guy.
01:44:36.440 He's a bad guy.
01:44:37.640 Thank you.
01:44:38.140 Terrible person in every way.
01:44:39.940 All right.
01:44:40.220 We can move on now.
01:44:41.780 Horrible.
01:44:42.420 Awful.
01:44:42.820 We, he's just, we have somebody whose voice I respect coming on in just a second.
01:44:49.320 Wait, are you saying?
01:44:50.740 Yes, I am.
01:44:51.460 Okay.

01:45:05.820 gas pump.
01:45:06.340 This time of year, when the weather starts to turn from warm to cold, your car is the
01:45:11.600 most vulnerable to breakdowns because machines don't like the cold.

01:45:21.560 if the problem is a computer chip.

01:46:31.420 We welcome to the program in studio, Jedda Diabila, who is the author of a book, Dear Hartley.
01:46:38.840 Uh, she's also a former cohost on the view and, uh, is a, is a blaze alum.
01:46:44.760 That's correct.
01:46:45.600 Welcome.
01:46:45.900 How are you?
01:46:46.480 I'm doing great.
01:46:47.280 It's great to be in the free state of Texas.
01:46:49.500 It feels good.
01:46:50.460 It feels different.
01:46:51.400 You live in New York still.
01:46:53.160 I do.
01:46:53.880 I do.
01:46:54.520 New York city.
01:46:55.500 Yeah.
01:46:55.700 I live right outside Manhattan.
01:46:58.100 Well, my family's there, right?
01:46:59.600 So I got out of Manhattan during COVID.
01:47:02.120 Um, but it's, it's time to leave.
01:47:04.780 You know, I've said many times I have a child now.
01:47:06.940 I have a son.
01:47:07.620 He's two years old and I cannot fathom raising him in what has become of that city.
01:47:13.360 You know, the crime is out of control when you walk around the city.
01:47:16.780 I always say it feels like a city with no soul.
01:47:18.960 Now everyone's walking around.
01:47:21.640 It has, it's empty.
01:47:24.000 It's vacant.
01:47:25.000 Now, New York city, there's a sense of everyone feels like they're afraid of each other.
01:47:29.220 You know, you walk around being scared of everyone else.
01:47:31.920 Everyone's mask.
01:47:32.840 You need, you know, to show your, uh, Vax, you know, card to get in everywhere and anywhere.
01:47:37.720 And it just feels, you know, New York used to be rebellious and edgy and artists used to
01:47:43.440 flock there and creativity.
01:47:44.880 And now it just seems dead inside and, you know, mandates aside, I want my kid to be
01:47:51.600 courageous and free thinking.
01:47:54.040 And, you know, that's not the place for it anymore.
01:47:56.320 No, I'm not going to get that.
01:47:57.440 I tell you, we, we moved away.
01:47:59.860 Kids were probably six and eight, maybe, uh, five and seven.
01:48:05.880 And, and, uh, Tanya said, uh, I said, why, why, why this city has everything, everything
01:48:13.300 take them to the Met, take them, you know, we live across the street from the park, let
01:48:17.600 you go to the park.
01:48:18.360 She said, you take them to the park Saturday, you take them to the park.
01:48:22.440 And so I said, I will, I will, I'll take them to the park.
01:48:25.860 And I went and these, this group of three girls must've been about seven years old, all
01:48:31.780 under the monkey bars, dropping their pants and taking a crap under the monkey bars.
01:48:38.480 And the parents, I'm looking around, like, where are the parents of these kids?
01:48:42.400 And the parents, the, the women, um, started, were right next to me and they started laughing
01:48:48.020 and one of them went, you know, Julie, honey, don't do that.
01:48:53.100 I've told you before.
01:48:54.360 And they're all laughing.
01:48:55.340 And I got the kids and I went back home and I said, we're moving.
01:48:57.680 You were right.
01:48:58.780 It's awful.
01:48:59.500 Yeah.
01:48:59.900 And what you see now is, you know, you're seeing the pre Giuliani years reemerge where
01:49:04.660 all of those safe neighborhoods.
01:49:06.540 And I tweet about this a lot because people who don't live in New York and don't know New
01:49:10.220 York, look at the crime and look at what's being said.
01:49:12.540 And they said, well, maybe these are always bad.
01:49:14.220 No, these are, these were once safe neighborhoods and it's just bleeding out now.
01:49:18.980 So into the whole city, I mean, you see people shooting up on the street.
01:49:22.040 I mean, it's, it's outrageous really.
01:49:23.900 You know, when I walk around with my kid, cause sometimes I'll still go into Manhattan for
01:49:27.600 appointments and whatnot, I don't even want him around, you know, around there.
01:49:32.520 I don't, I don't even want it.
01:49:33.340 Like even holding his hand.
01:49:34.420 I'm like, I don't even want this for him.
01:49:36.860 There's nothing left there.
01:49:38.600 And I hope it comes back.
01:49:39.820 It's happening.
01:49:40.180 I hope it comes back.
01:49:41.220 Glenn, I want to believe that people want that city to come back.
01:49:45.540 But it depends on the people.
01:49:47.720 And if the people there want to be, want to act like zombies and sheep, it's not going to
01:49:51.060 happen.
01:49:51.420 Well, I don't think you're ever going to get them to stop.
01:49:53.960 I mean, well, I mean, uh, mayor Adams, right?
01:49:56.640 He's coming in.
01:49:57.480 He looks like he might, uh, believe in some law and order, but you have cities like this
01:50:03.700 all over the country last Friday over, I think it was a dozen cities, a dozen cities said
01:50:09.840 they have broken their violence and homicide records of all time.
01:50:14.420 That's, that's what, and they're all democratically run woke cities.
01:50:18.420 Yeah, but, but the problem is, is that people, my concern is actually the people who flee
01:50:24.260 cities like that, because you flee those cities because you say, I don't want this for myself.
01:50:29.580 I don't want this for my family.
01:50:31.180 This has gone crazy.
01:50:32.980 What happens when they relocate though?
01:50:35.340 Do those people then move to the Austin, Texas is of the world to the Miami's and then
01:50:39.580 vote in the same types of people.
01:50:41.800 They are in Austin.
01:50:42.920 Yeah.
01:50:43.220 They are in Austin.
01:50:43.880 That's a huge problem because you have, I mean, I don't know what to do to wake up
01:50:47.900 people in this country to say, if you are fleeing something, do something different,
01:50:53.080 vote differently, talk differently about issues.
01:50:56.180 Something needs to change.
01:50:57.280 Don't go there and ruin that city and make it into the city.
01:51:00.780 You just left do something better.
01:51:03.340 I don't know why I want to shake everyone.
01:51:05.140 And I know I get crazy.
01:51:06.000 You can already see me getting animated, but really it's a time to just reevaluate and look
01:51:10.300 and say, maybe these are things that you once held dear, but it's not working.
01:51:13.540 Look at what what's working.
01:51:15.360 And if you have a family and you want them to feel safe and you want values to be protected,
01:51:20.400 like prioritize those things and choose differently.
01:51:24.480 We are truly in two different countries now.
01:51:27.060 I never felt that about America, but we are.
01:51:29.460 I don't even understand the thinking of people with, with, um, uh, Rittenhouse, what people
01:51:36.920 said after the trial, watch the trial.
01:51:39.760 Um, what, what happened with Jesse, uh, Jussie Smollett, you know, MSNBC didn't even report
01:51:46.080 on that in prime time at all.
01:51:48.940 Right.
01:51:49.520 Well, I mean, yeah, but, but that creates two Americas, one where there are facts and one
01:51:55.920 where there's this, this fantasy fact.
01:51:58.340 Yeah.
01:51:58.860 You know, I talked a lot about media.
01:52:01.000 I actually got into this business years ago.
01:52:03.240 Um, I wasn't someone who grew up in a political family.
01:52:06.640 I wasn't someone who worked in Washington, DC.
01:52:08.960 I didn't want to work in Washington, DC, but I was interested because I watched Sarah
01:52:14.520 Palin.
01:52:15.080 I didn't know who she was at the time.
01:52:16.320 And she came on the scene and she was immediately attacked.
01:52:18.580 You know, you had media that landed in Wasilla, Alaska and decided they were going to do oppo
01:52:23.660 research on her.
01:52:24.480 So I immediately said to myself, oh, I need to figure out what she's done right because
01:52:28.140 she's angered all the right people.
01:52:29.540 So let's, let's look at her record.
01:52:31.200 That was my first inkling that, you know, the media was very powerful and very destructive
01:52:38.440 and that went on.
01:52:40.400 I think the, the second moment I had where I said to myself, wow, this is insanity was
01:52:46.100 the Kavanaugh trial, the Kavanaugh hearings.
01:52:47.900 Yeah.
01:52:48.300 When you saw what happened there, I mean, this guy, they were destroying him.
01:52:54.020 There was no evidence that he had done any of these things.
01:52:57.420 And they made a decision that they were going to make this about politics and the media
01:53:02.460 gathered together and decided he was guilty.
01:53:05.520 There was no evidence being presented.
01:53:07.380 I mean, Christine Blasey Ford wasn't even, even the people that she said could corroborate
01:53:11.020 her story weren't.
01:53:12.260 Right.
01:53:12.400 And I was sitting and saying, okay.
01:53:14.080 And people walked away from that still believing that he was guilty.
01:53:18.700 Same thing that the New York Times is doubling down on the Russian collusion thing.
01:53:23.880 That's right.
01:53:24.280 It's there's no truth to that at all.
01:53:26.820 There's no truth to that.
01:53:28.460 It doesn't matter.
01:53:29.680 It doesn't matter though.
01:53:30.700 How do you survive that?
01:53:32.520 How do those people in the end survive?
01:53:36.000 Well, I think, I think that what you're saying about two countries, there are people who care
01:53:41.780 about facts.
01:53:42.500 They're all over the country and they're sprouting up, not in mainstream media outlets, but
01:53:45.940 in alternative media outlets.
01:53:47.100 That's why you see them in podcasting.
01:53:48.740 You see them on Substack.
01:53:50.000 You see them all over Twitter saying, wait a second, I'm not affiliated with corporate
01:53:53.820 media, but I'm going to tell you the truth.
01:53:55.360 And more and more people are flocking to that.
01:53:57.440 I think the problem arises that you have, you know, collusion here.
01:54:02.860 You have big tech, which has a narrative.
01:54:05.420 You have big media, which has a narrative.
01:54:07.920 You have big politics right now, meaning Democrat politics.
01:54:10.740 It's all the same narrative.
01:54:12.360 And they've all come together and decided we're going to make what's untrue, true at
01:54:17.920 all costs.
01:54:19.060 So it takes citizen journalists.
01:54:20.820 It takes, it really takes a lot of effort to decide, wait a second, let me ask questions.
01:54:26.300 It takes issues that affect you and your family.
01:54:28.240 That's why I think with these vaccine mandates, people started to say, well, wait a second.
01:54:31.880 Yeah.
01:54:32.060 This doesn't make sense.
01:54:33.080 But it's hard, it's hard work.
01:54:35.620 And I think those people regain their name because they go on shows like yours and they
01:54:39.720 go on these podcasts and they get their voice out there and people start to say, I'm being
01:54:44.360 manipulated by the media.
01:54:46.160 This is, this is a game and I'm being played.
01:54:48.220 So see the game or be played by the game.
01:54:50.580 Would you agree that Joy Behar is the meanest woman alive?
01:54:55.060 You know, it's so funny.
01:54:57.900 I worked with her for a long time and she, she was, she was nice offset.
01:55:03.500 I don't know.
01:55:03.760 Do you have any experience personally with her?
01:55:05.760 Oh, zero.
01:55:06.440 Okay.
01:55:06.760 So I, I, I mean, I was on the show, but, and she was vicious on and off air.
01:55:14.520 Oh yeah.
01:55:16.040 During the commercials, she would continue to dig at me.
01:55:19.660 You're a despicable person.
01:55:21.480 I was like, wow.
01:55:22.960 So what I've discovered about people in general and left-wing media is that they like you if
01:55:30.900 they think they can control you.
01:55:32.520 And the second they realize that you can't be pushed around or you're not going to be
01:55:35.800 a meme.
01:55:36.360 You're not going to be the conservative who comes on and loves mandate or the conservative
01:55:42.880 who comes on.
01:55:43.940 And the reason you're invited on is because you hate, you're a never Trumper.
01:55:47.280 I mean, the guy could like, you know, have a conversation with Jesus and reveal something
01:55:51.960 amazing about, and no, you hate him anyway.
01:55:54.740 You know, that's your, then you're welcome into the club, you know, but if you are not
01:55:59.620 that and you're someone who stands up, who stands firm, then you instantly become the
01:56:04.700 enemy.
01:56:05.000 And that's where the nastiness comes out.
01:56:06.420 I think across the board, you know, I, I always remember whenever I would, you know,
01:56:10.880 say something that someone on the left liked, I would be very hesitant to, you know, take
01:56:15.980 that praise because I know what's, I know where it's headed.
01:56:19.360 And you know, you know, what's, what's horrible is we have created a situation to where a lot
01:56:24.200 of people don't want to say good things about the other side because they know it will be
01:56:31.260 taken by somebody and exploited.
01:56:35.720 And so you, you, you can't, you can't even have conversations with people, you know, in,
01:56:42.420 in, in open air because somebody will either hear it and say, you're a sellout or somebody
01:56:47.900 else will hear it and say, you know, uh, uh, look, they're finally on our side.
01:56:54.200 And it's like, I don't have a side.
01:56:55.800 I have the truth.
01:56:56.600 That's my side.
01:56:57.580 So I think that's a really important point that you're making right now.
01:57:00.180 And you use the word conversation and that's something that has really ceased to exist in
01:57:04.420 many circles. It's not, that's why I got into the business originally.
01:57:07.320 I said, great.
01:57:08.220 I want to have a conversation with people who see the world differently, who people with
01:57:11.800 people who see the world similarly, let's figure it out.
01:57:14.440 Let's sit down and figure it out.
01:57:16.020 That is not the priority.
01:57:17.100 Now, now the priority is not having that conversation.
01:57:20.300 It's you're either with me or you're against me.
01:57:23.160 People don't listen.
01:57:24.460 I mean, you couldn't even sit and, and, and do this really it's talking point driven.
01:57:28.560 It's time constraints.
01:57:29.820 It's Democrat, Republican go fight.
01:57:31.720 Oh, we got our clip.
01:57:32.840 Great.
01:57:33.100 End of story.
01:57:33.680 It's, it's boring and it's also useless.
01:57:36.900 It is.
01:57:37.560 So, um, and even on shows like the view, which I did, you know, that used to be a space where
01:57:42.160 I felt like diversity of thought, even though it was just one seat, truthfully, that brought
01:57:46.660 a different opinion, that one seat had a voice.
01:57:48.820 And increasingly I'm seeing that that's not the case.
01:57:51.380 No, that it, it, it, they destroy that seat.
01:57:55.860 Destroy now.
01:57:56.660 I know.
01:57:57.200 And it's sad to me because if the goal here is as a country to do better, then you have
01:58:03.660 to, you have to talk, you have to be able to sit and you and I am sure agree a lot on
01:58:08.180 policy, but I'm sure there's stuff that we don't agree on because we're thinking people,
01:58:12.480 we're free thinking people, which also is a thing that has ceased to exist in media, but
01:58:16.720 we could sit and have a conversation.
01:58:19.060 That's, that's really happening in very, very few places.
01:58:22.480 Is, is this the first time you've been to the blaze headquarters since New York?
01:58:27.000 Yes.
01:58:27.320 I was, I, I've never been here at all actually.
01:58:29.480 Um, in fact, when I, um, got hired in a little basement we had in New York, it's so cool.
01:58:34.360 I feel like I'm on, and it's funny.
01:58:35.760 I grew up on a performing arts house and my mom taught acting.
01:58:39.040 So I walk in here and I'm like, I feel like I'm home.
01:58:43.100 It's a really cool place.
01:58:44.180 It's very cool.
01:58:45.120 And I know you were trying to do that.
01:58:46.520 Listen, we had real news back in the day.
01:58:48.400 It was like 12 years ago.
01:58:49.860 Was the best show.
01:58:52.220 I think the blaze has ever produced and smart, so smart.
01:58:57.320 I got smarter on that show.
01:58:58.700 Yeah, I did.
01:58:59.560 I got smarter by being on that.
01:59:00.960 It was a brilliant, brilliant show.
01:59:03.120 It seems like everybody who was on that show went on to really big things after it.
01:59:06.700 Yeah.
01:59:06.960 Like, uh, I mean, they all left us to do it, which is smart, which is great.
01:59:11.820 I mean, I love the fact that I can watch things and go, Oh yeah, she started there.
01:59:16.880 He started there.
01:59:17.740 He started there.
01:59:18.480 I just did a segment with Buck the other day and we talk about it all the time.
01:59:21.320 Um, and you had just left.
01:59:22.900 I, when I started at real news, they were, I was like, Oh great.
01:59:25.740 Where's Glenn?
01:59:26.280 And they were like, Glenn's gone.
01:59:27.340 I was like, you were here setting up this, you know, beautiful space.
01:59:33.260 Um, but it started real news was when I got in, I was like, okay, we're having a conversation.
01:59:38.740 And I quickly realized in media that that's just not what's desired most of the time.
01:59:44.220 And if you're a free thinking person, you kind of don't know.
01:59:47.620 You're like, where, where do I fit?
01:59:49.460 You know?
01:59:49.700 Well, I hope that, uh, you decide to move down to Texas and I hope we see more of you.
01:59:54.120 Yes.
01:59:54.540 Sounds great.
01:59:55.220 Jedediah Bila, she is the author of Dear Hartley and, uh, she's formerly here at the blaze and
02:00:01.940 also the view back in a minute.
02:00:04.660 First, let me tell you about the Tuttle twins books.
02:00:07.560 These are must haves and you're kind of getting to the end of the shopping season here.
02:00:13.300 If you want them under the tree for the kids or the grandkids, if you have children or grandchildren,
02:00:17.960 this is a must.
02:00:20.260 The Tuttle twins books, they will help your kids understand the free market.
02:00:25.120 They'll help understand the foundations of our country.
02:00:28.580 And I know it sounds, I don't know.
02:00:31.760 I don't.
02:00:33.460 I've always had a pushback on things that weren't, you know, Dr. Seuss.
02:00:37.700 Um, but that is literally nonsense.
02:00:40.540 A lot of that, this, if we don't teach our kids the foundations and teach it to them young,
02:00:47.560 they don't get it through osmosis and they will not get it anywhere else.
02:00:51.860 They have curriculums for your kids, but they teach the principles of the market and freedom
02:00:57.120 using stories and pictures and then just great stories, uh, for your teenage kids.
02:01:02.520 So from toddlers to teenagers, and quite honestly, I've read them.
02:01:07.060 I've learned stuff from them as well.

02:01:51.700 Um, tonight I'm going to have Jim Garrity on the program, a friend of ours for a long time,
02:01:56.040 great political commentator and such.
02:01:58.200 I'm really excited to talk to him about this particular thing.
02:02:00.600 He did an interview with Bob Costas recently.
02:02:04.800 And if you remember Bob Costas, obviously he's a legendary broadcaster and all that, but
02:02:08.760 then you, he also went down these roads where he did, I just remember him doing these hard
02:02:12.320 left.
02:02:12.920 He did like commentaries, you know, we got to get guns off the, yeah.
02:02:15.980 Yeah.
02:02:16.200 Like guns and, and the Washington Redskins are that name is bad.
02:02:19.000 Like, I just remember being so annoyed with him and thinking he was just like a left activist.
02:02:22.680 Well, apparently they went back and forth in email and Jim didn't believe it was Bob Costas
02:02:27.900 at first.
02:02:28.960 Uh, but Bob was like, we should talk about this cause that's not who I am.
02:02:32.560 And Bob comes on and he's, he basically is like, I'm not some far left woke activist.
02:02:37.040 Like I am not that guy.
02:02:38.380 And the reason why I kind of believe him is no far left activist ever argues that they're
02:02:44.480 not a far left activist, right?
02:02:46.160 They all take full responsibility for it.
02:02:49.240 Um, and he went through and it's interesting, like the gun monologue, I remember hating at
02:02:53.720 the time thinking it was terrible.
02:02:55.240 Yeah.
02:02:55.600 And he points out, you know who he quotes in that monologue?
02:02:59.160 Uh, he's quotes an op-ed of the time.
02:03:01.380 It was a sports issue around guns.
02:03:02.860 He quotes Jason Whitlock.
02:03:05.040 Oh my gosh.
02:03:05.760 Who now works at the blaze.
02:03:07.380 Oh my gosh.
02:03:08.060 And I'm so, I'm so confused as to whether we were wrong about Bob Costas maybe at the
02:03:12.480 time, or if just the Overton window shifted so much on the left that now he's sane.
02:03:17.520 This is the Glenn Beck program.
