00:00:00.000 Let me tell you about Grip6 and all the stuff that they have.
00:00:03.240 Great socks, great belts, great wallets.
00:00:06.340 This is an American company, and they're the type of people that they do business the right way.
00:00:11.440 They're a small business in Utah.
00:00:12.640 They sell high quality, made in the USA, belts that look great.

00:00:24.820 They just do everything the best way possible.
00:00:27.100 And that's what Grip6 has been doing for a while now.
00:00:29.840 They're people who care about the country, support the country, and make all their products here, source everything from inside the United States, which is pretty hard to do these days.
00:00:38.500 If you know anyone who's ever been involved in a company that might make clothing or, you know, accessories like this, it's hard to do in the United States.
00:00:47.460 Grip6 is committed to it, and everything they have is guaranteed for life.
00:00:51.780 If that doesn't tell you that you're dealing with a solid American company, nothing will.

00:01:25.280 Got no room to compromise.
00:01:40.440 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:05.340 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:10.300 Hello, America.
00:02:12.900 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:14.780 So the government and governments around the world are now starting to warn against hoarding, telling people not to hoard food.
00:02:24.280 Gee, yet they're hoarding the supplies, the emergency food supplies all over the world.
00:02:34.420 Governments are buying up as much food as they can.
00:02:38.580 What is it that they know that you don't know?
00:02:41.620 Well, the answer will be nothing if you hear this hour of the broadcast.
00:02:50.620 We begin in 60 seconds.
00:02:55.580 Ramon wrote in about his wife's experience with Relief Factory.
00:02:58.800 He said, I ordered Relief Factory for my wife, and all I can say is it really does work.
00:03:04.100 In fact, I think it works better than advertised.
00:03:06.860 My wife's pain level has dropped off dramatically.
00:03:10.420 She's not only able to get around the house more easily, but her pain level is so much more manageable now.
00:03:15.360 Thank you.
00:03:16.540 Thank you for this product.
00:03:19.140 Ramon, thank you.
00:03:20.480 If you're dealing with pain or you know somebody who's dealing in pain, please, please just try the three-week quick start.
00:03:28.580 It may work for you.
00:03:29.600 It works for about 70% of the people who try it, or at least they go on to order more after the trial period, month after month.
00:03:37.640 Why would you do that unless it works?
00:03:40.380 Why would you hesitate?
00:03:41.580 I know, because you're hearing it on the radio in some blabbermouth, and you think, that can't work.
00:03:47.080 I've taken it.
00:03:47.980 I've been taking it three times a day now for about three years.
00:03:51.360 It changed my life.
00:03:53.620 Relieffactor.com.
00:03:55.200 Relieffactor.com.
00:03:56.300 Call 800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:58.100 800, the number 4-RELIEF, or Relieffactor.com.
00:04:02.020 Feel the difference.
00:04:04.160 All right, I want to talk to you about a couple of things.
00:04:06.360 First of all, I want to build this case with you.
00:04:10.320 I'm going to tell you exactly what I'm doing and what I think you should do as well.
00:04:17.160 Well, I was going to do it, and then I decided not to, because I have to.
00:04:20.840 I've had so many boating accidents lately, Stu.
00:04:23.620 So many boating accidents.
00:04:26.220 Just as a friend, do not think you should boat anymore.
00:04:28.920 I don't think so either.
00:04:29.660 Because you can't seem to keep these things afloat.
00:04:31.540 I know.
00:04:32.180 What are you making them out of cement?
00:04:33.580 I know, and I'm like, latest is food storage.
00:04:36.980 Gone.
00:04:37.780 Gone.
00:04:38.140 Gone.
00:04:38.280 It's down on the bottom of the lake.
00:04:39.780 Did you think about maybe getting a submarine going down there or getting your guns?
00:04:43.440 I can't do it.
00:04:43.820 It's too deep.
00:04:44.780 Too deep.
00:04:44.900 Anyway, so I'll give you some solutions here to this, but I want you to listen carefully
00:04:50.200 and check all these numbers yourself, if you care to.
00:04:56.760 First, you have a problem with inflation.
00:04:59.540 We all know that.
00:05:01.160 We all can feel it.
00:05:02.520 We can see it.
00:05:03.260 It wasn't caused by Russia.
00:05:05.880 It is caused by the Federal Reserve.
00:05:08.900 It is caused by spending too much money and printing even more.
00:05:14.360 I say it's caused by the Federal Reserve.
00:05:16.520 They didn't spend the money.
00:05:18.340 Yes, we have a debt now of $30 trillion that if interest rates go up to about 5% or 6%,
00:05:25.900 we will not be able to afford anything but the interest on that debt.
00:05:33.460 Okay?
00:05:34.780 Now, we know that's happening.
00:05:37.560 The Federal Reserve also has printed and given the banks untold trillions of dollars.
00:05:44.700 We know that they gave $30 trillion to the banks by 2010.
00:05:52.620 That news has just been released due to a FOIA request.
00:05:56.180 We have no idea what they've done in the last two years.
00:05:59.100 Can I just add to your point on interest here, Glenn?
00:06:01.320 Yeah.
00:06:01.820 This is according to Brian Riedel over at the Manhattan Institute.
00:06:04.200 For every point that interest rates go up, just a point, that adds $30 trillion to the
00:06:11.620 debt over the next, I think it's 30 years, which is the same amount that we would spend
00:06:16.500 in that period on defense.
00:06:18.980 So every single point interest rates go up, we owe another $30 trillion.
00:06:26.240 Like we're adding an entire new U.S. military every single time one of these things goes up
00:06:32.220 one point.
00:06:32.880 So we just raised the interest rates, the Fed did, by a quarter point and said five to
00:06:40.500 seven more hikes are coming.
00:06:43.320 Gosh.
00:06:43.540 Okay?
00:06:44.360 All right.
00:06:45.200 So let's just talk about real stuff here for a second.
00:06:49.720 I wanted to show you what the price of things were, what the price of things are, and what
00:06:56.540 the price of things will be, um, by, by election day, 2024.
00:07:02.660 Okay.
00:07:03.880 We must turn this around, but our, but our government and our Fed and our administration are incapable
00:07:15.240 of taking the right steps.
00:07:17.100 This is just inflation.
00:07:19.720 The numbers I'm going to give you just inflation.
00:07:22.720 This doesn't include extra regulation or shortages or anything else.
00:07:27.860 This is just because the value of your dollar is going down.
00:07:33.600 Prices aren't going up.
00:07:35.060 Now, I used not 7.9% CPI to project into the future.
00:07:45.280 I used shadow stats.
00:07:46.980 The reason why I did this is because everybody is comparing this to the days of Jimmy Carter.
00:07:52.980 No, it's worse than the days of Jimmy Carter.
00:07:56.060 I'm using the shadow stats because this is the way the government calculated inflation in 1980.
00:08:03.980 They changed that calculation because it was looking bad for the United States government
00:08:09.780 and the Fed.
00:08:10.800 So they changed it.
00:08:12.720 Um, but if we look and measure the same things the same way, we'll get the inflation rate that
00:08:21.360 is 15.5%, not 7.9%.
00:08:26.180 So this is from shadow stats.
00:08:28.660 That's how we calculated these.
00:08:30.600 Um, I've made some charts, but I'll read them off in case you happen to be watching the blaze.
00:08:35.280 You'll see the charts.
00:08:36.560 Uh, if not, let me just tell you where we're going to start.
00:08:39.720 And that is with hamburgers.
00:08:41.640 When Biden was elected, um, when Biden was elected, a hamburger was $4 and 40 cents.
00:08:49.820 Today, I think you guys are working on the wrong, you're working on the wrong, uh, end of the,
00:08:56.100 that's the last slide.
00:08:57.300 Look for hamburger.
00:08:59.020 Uh, when Biden was elected, it was $4 and 40 cents today.
00:09:02.920 It's $6 and one cent.
00:09:07.040 Jeez.
00:09:07.980 2024, November, the time, the next election, just with inflation.
00:09:14.000 That's it.
00:09:14.920 No food shortage, nothing just due to inflation.
00:09:18.680 Are you better off than you were four years ago?
00:09:23.140 Hamburger was $4 and 40 cents.
00:09:26.000 A hamburger will be $7 and 95 cents.
00:09:30.780 Wow.
00:09:31.840 When Biden was elected, this is just due to inflation.
00:09:36.400 When Biden was elected, gas was $2 and 18 cents.
00:09:40.620 Today it's four 41 November 24th.
00:09:44.680 With no, no shortages, no war, nothing just from inflation.
00:09:51.800 $5.83.
00:09:54.000 When Biden was elected, milk was $3 and 24 cents.
00:09:58.560 Today it's $3.89.
00:10:01.040 Just through inflation in November, 2024, the price of Biden milk will be $5 and 15 cents.
00:10:09.600 I got news for you.
00:10:10.380 I don't care what the price is.
00:10:11.260 I'm not drinking, drinking Biden milk.
00:10:13.620 That just sounds really icky.
00:10:15.220 It does.
00:10:15.840 It does.
00:10:16.860 You're not the one milking it either.
00:10:19.140 You can milk anything with a nipple.
00:10:20.620 When Biden was elected, the price of a light bulb was $1 and 57 cents.
00:10:27.960 Today it's $2.55.
00:10:30.320 A price of a light bulb when the presidential election in 2024 is happening will be $3.37.
00:10:37.360 When Biden was elected, eggs, a dozen, $1.45.
00:10:43.480 Today, $2.35.
00:10:45.660 November 24, $3.11.
00:10:49.120 When Biden was elected, $1.50 for bread.
00:10:54.080 Today it's $1.67.
00:10:56.420 November 2024 projection, $2.21.
00:10:59.480 That number is going to be wildly different, and you'll understand why here in a minute.
00:11:07.980 When Biden was elected, just because of inflation, houses were $3.58,700.
00:11:16.020 Today they're $4.14, $1.23.
00:11:20.060 November 24 projection, $547,885.
00:11:28.400 That's the average home.
00:11:31.860 When Biden was elected, $22,951 was the price of a car.
00:11:42.480 Today it's $30,603 if you can get one.
00:11:46.740 Just through inflation, that number will jump from $30,000 to $40,488.
00:11:56.780 Just some quick personal news here.
00:11:58.400 Glenn, I celebrated this weekend my seven-month anniversary of ordering my car.
00:12:02.580 Oh, congratulations.
00:12:03.120 Thank you.
00:12:03.760 It's still not here.
00:12:04.580 They haven't even taken the order yet.
00:12:06.740 I haven't pulled the order yet, but seven months in, I'm doing well.
00:12:09.760 Have you thought about a horse?
00:12:12.300 Okay.
00:12:12.740 Now, let me give you something else.
00:12:14.420 Now, these are just projections, and you can find, we're going to publish all of this.
00:12:20.260 You can find how we made these projections, but they are just projections.
00:12:25.900 These numbers can change dramatically.
00:12:28.280 But we wanted to add in the geopolitical instability factor.
00:12:33.440 So, we know about wheat, and I've got something I've got to share with you here in a minute.
00:12:41.040 We know about wheat, but we are kind of, we're being, I think, very conservative on some of these numbers.
00:12:49.480 A hamburger, the price I just told you, add 25% if things continue to go geopolitically as they are.
00:13:00.280 Gas, if things continue, the instability factor, you'll need to add 30% to that gallon of gas.
00:13:10.120 15% added for milk, 5% for light bulbs, 15% for chicken.
00:13:16.900 I don't think, sorry, for eggs.
00:13:19.080 I don't think that's high enough.
00:13:21.160 You'll understand why here in a minute.
00:13:23.260 Bread up 30%.
00:13:25.620 Housing down 25%.
00:13:29.340 And cars down by 25%.
00:13:32.880 I agree with the housing, not necessarily so with the projection of the cars, but I left this to the experts and our team to put together the numbers.
00:13:46.300 Now, I'm going to take a one-minute break.
00:13:50.800 And then I'm going to tell you the truth that no one is willing to talk about, about what's really going on with food and why you need to begin to prepare right now.
00:14:05.720 First, let me tell you about one thing that every house should have.
00:14:12.840 The Tuttle Twins Library.
00:14:15.060 The Tuttle Twins books.

00:14:42.820 Show them why the free market works.

00:14:51.880 Use the books that our founders used.
00:14:54.160 They're hard to read, but not if you get the Tuttle Twins books, because the Tuttle Twins books, they make it really simple for your six-year-old, seven-year-old, your teenagers.
00:15:04.620 They have another set for teenagers, young adults.

00:15:29.280 10 seconds.
00:15:29.780 Station ID.
00:15:40.980 Stu, have you ever listened to the podcast All In?
00:15:44.220 Yes.
00:15:44.840 Okay.
00:15:45.080 Really good.
00:15:45.980 Really, really bright guys.
00:15:47.760 Generally speaking, more independent now, but they've all been Democrats, staunch Democrats, I think, except maybe one of them.
00:15:57.580 And they're all experts in different fields and all friends.
00:16:02.160 David Friedberg is one of them.
00:16:04.260 And I was listening to the podcast, and they asked David a question.
00:16:11.280 Now, David used to work for Monsanto, and he doesn't work there anymore.
00:16:17.940 But he believes in Monsanto and blah, blah, blah, think GMOs and et cetera, et cetera.
00:16:24.280 If you're against GMOs, don't dismiss him because I got my facts from him on the stats, but we're not talking GMOs.
00:16:34.480 We're just talking about looking at the market and what is really happening.
00:16:38.920 So, when you're looking at food, understand that 15% of all global calories come from wheat and rice.
00:16:54.380 25%.
00:16:55.260 I'm sorry, 15%.
00:16:57.260 One-third of all of our wheat comes from Russia and Ukraine.
00:17:03.440 We're supposed to be planting crops all around the world right now for wheat.
00:17:11.040 Not happening in much of Russia.
00:17:14.940 Not happening anywhere in Ukraine.
00:17:19.360 Next stat you need to understand.
00:17:21.960 Our food supply, you know how the cars had just in time.
00:17:26.460 Our production lines were all just in time.
00:17:28.860 And that's why we can't make cars because there are parts that are sitting somewhere, you know, crossing the ocean, sitting on a dock someplace.
00:17:39.920 The whole supply chain has broken down because it's just in time.
00:17:45.320 It arrives just in time to put it into the car.
00:17:49.100 When you have a disruption, it just bogs everything up and unclogging it.
00:17:53.820 We don't even know if we can really unclog it and get it started again.
00:17:57.540 But it's going to take years to do it.
00:18:00.360 That's the supply chain for stuff.
00:18:04.240 The supply chain for food is 90 days.
00:18:09.400 We have 90 days worth of food in the supply chain.
00:18:14.000 That's from the grocery store to the garden and everything in between.
00:18:19.820 If it stops, we stop, let's say, we just for some reason stopped all farming, we would have 90 days left of food worldwide.
00:18:31.420 Okay?
00:18:35.100 25% of all global production is food.
00:18:42.000 We're about to lose 12% of production.
00:18:46.180 That means we're losing half of our food supply of wheat, half of our wheat food supply.
00:18:56.780 This is going to hit places like Africa first, and it's going to hit places of poverty, unlike anything we've ever seen.
00:19:06.500 800 million people currently on earth live below 1,200 calories per day.
00:19:14.500 So, you know, the Germans would not allow Jews to have more than 600 calories a day.
00:19:24.680 So, they are only double the amount of calories that the Jews got during the Holocaust.
00:19:32.020 And we all remember what they looked like.
00:19:35.760 If they're at 1,200 calories today, and they're in places that are poor, which they most likely are,
00:19:45.660 those calories will be either cut off or greatly reduced.
00:19:51.520 Now, the bigger problem is fertilizer and energy, the energy price to run the tractors, to run the trucks, to run everything else,
00:20:07.420 and the price of phosphorus and potassium, potash, and nitrogen.
00:20:16.180 Those are the three major things we use to make fertilizer.
00:20:23.480 Natural gas, 90% of ammonia is made from natural gas.
00:20:28.060 Prices in natural gas have doubled, and in some places, gone up 4x.
00:20:41.400 It's gone from $200 a ton to $1,000 a ton.
00:20:47.700 Phosphorus, 10% of the phosphorus from Russia, and 20% to 25% of all of the potash comes from Russia.
00:20:57.140 It's now been banned in Russia.
00:21:00.540 They cannot sell it.
00:21:02.460 We cannot buy it.
00:21:04.400 They said, oh, you're going to cut us off at the bank?
00:21:06.620 Great, we'll cut you off on this.
00:21:09.000 Potassium is up to $700.
00:21:11.360 Phosphate went from $250 to $700.
00:21:15.040 This is causing so much stress on the farmers,
00:21:19.700 that farmers now all around the world are not planting their fields.
00:21:25.860 They are reducing the acreage,
00:21:29.160 because without fertilizer, you're not growing much.
00:21:33.900 So, why plant all those fields?
00:21:36.660 It's not going to be a good year, they're thinking.
00:21:39.820 So, as fertilizer goes up,
00:21:43.360 they pull more and more acres.
00:21:45.340 So far, the price of corn has doubled.
00:21:49.900 Soybeans, wheat skyrocketing.
00:21:52.800 The strategic food reserves in some parts of the world are now opening.
00:21:58.960 We better have perfect weather all over the world.
00:22:05.300 Just because if things continue the way they are,
00:22:09.200 and don't turn around quickly,
00:22:11.960 and we can't get fertilizer,
00:22:13.780 hundreds of millions of people
00:22:17.200 will experience famine by the end of the year.
00:22:23.080 We need to do everything we can to support our farmers.
00:22:27.220 We need to understand what's coming.
00:22:30.580 And you need to have a garden,
00:22:34.920 plant some seeds,
00:22:37.620 live by a farm and help them,
00:22:39.600 or start storing food now.
00:22:44.060 More on this in a second.
00:22:50.060 The Glenn Back Program.
00:22:52.360 Okay, I want you to save money on your phone service.
00:22:55.380 And I want you to,
00:22:56.280 we need a parallel economy.
00:22:58.240 We need to do business with people
00:22:59.740 who will do business with us,
00:23:01.040 who value our business.
00:23:02.380 And that's Patriot Mobile.
00:23:03.580 Right now, Patriot Mobile is the only Christian mobile service.
00:23:08.420 Not only do they operate on the same towers as the other companies,
00:23:11.540 given that same great mobile service,
00:23:13.220 but they have better customer service,
00:23:15.060 and they cost a ton less money.
00:23:17.760 Now, unlike the big mobile companies,
00:23:20.140 such as Verizon,
00:23:21.380 that donates to all kinds of leftist causes,
00:23:24.520 including abortion,
00:23:27.760 Patriot Mobile donates a portion of the bill
00:23:30.360 that they get their profits,
00:23:32.580 to conservative American causes,
00:23:34.620 the ones that we're fighting for.

00:24:00.360 If only there was a book to explain all of this.
00:24:07.540 Well, The Great Reset is here.
00:24:08.960 It's in bookstores everywhere.
00:24:10.120 Get it.
00:24:10.480 The Great Reset by Glenn Beck.
00:24:21.080 Rising fuel prices are taking a toll on small businesses.
00:24:24.960 Owners from everything from furniture retailers
00:24:27.340 to swimming pool service companies
00:24:29.080 are trimming their services
00:24:30.960 and revising contracts
00:24:32.440 because the financial hit
00:24:34.000 is getting worse and worse and worse.
00:24:38.700 Keeping store owners wide awake at night
00:24:42.920 trying to figure out
00:24:43.760 what are we going to do?
00:24:45.840 Well, there's a couple of things
00:24:47.040 that we should do.
00:24:48.580 First of all,
00:24:49.100 let me go back to food for a second.
00:24:51.840 The governments around the world
00:24:53.580 are buying up large swaths of food right now.
00:24:58.860 The commodity price is going up
00:25:00.620 not just because of traders
00:25:02.620 but because governments are trading
00:25:05.860 and governments are like,
00:25:06.960 we're going to buy our corn right now.
00:25:09.880 And first in, first out.
00:25:13.520 Countries like that are in Africa,
00:25:17.220 they're going to have a really hard time.
00:25:19.120 They're not going to get the food
00:25:20.700 that they desperately need.
00:25:22.660 But neither are other countries as well.
00:25:25.340 We're all going to take a real hit on this,
00:25:28.220 especially if we don't have good weather,
00:25:30.900 if we don't have fertilizer.
00:25:34.740 We should, as a nation,
00:25:37.200 be doing everything we can right now
00:25:40.780 to help the farmer.
00:25:42.560 Everything we can right now
00:25:44.480 to get fertilizer.
00:25:47.380 Everybody's worried about
00:25:48.580 the price of inflation
00:25:50.500 for the average person.
00:25:51.780 Okay, that's really bad
00:25:53.920 and we're all hurting.
00:25:55.400 But if we don't take care of the farmer
00:25:58.040 right now
00:25:58.940 and get him fertilizer
00:26:00.460 and make sure that they can afford
00:26:02.080 the things that they can afford
00:26:03.520 or they have to afford,
00:26:06.440 our inflation is the least of our problems.
00:26:09.320 It will be shortages next year.
00:26:13.260 Now, they are buying,
00:26:14.500 governments are buying up food,
00:26:16.680 but governments all over the world now
00:26:18.280 are also,
00:26:18.860 while they're doing that,
00:26:20.160 telling you not to hoard.
00:26:23.040 And I'm telling you also not to hoard.
00:26:26.860 But I am telling you
00:26:27.880 to prepare for your family
00:26:29.440 and then others that will be hungry.
00:26:32.820 We have to help each other through this.
00:26:36.640 There are going to be people
00:26:37.700 who just can't make it
00:26:39.660 and they'll have to bring another skill
00:26:43.080 and it's going to be barter, I guess.
00:26:44.940 But we're just going to have to help each other.
00:26:47.460 If you can grow food,
00:26:50.160 plant this spring.
00:26:52.860 Anything you can do
00:26:54.900 to ease the burden
00:26:56.400 on your family
00:26:57.620 and others,
00:26:59.060 do it.
00:27:00.160 When you go to a store,
00:27:01.840 if you are going in
00:27:03.300 and you're going to buy
00:27:04.180 macaroni and cheese
00:27:05.620 and you only need one box,
00:27:08.360 buy two.
00:27:09.860 Put one away.
00:27:12.320 Use the other one.
00:27:13.380 When that one box is done,
00:27:15.840 don't reach into the pantry
00:27:17.360 to get it.
00:27:18.500 Buy a second box.
00:27:20.160 As I showed you
00:27:21.060 just a few minutes ago,
00:27:22.360 just because of inflation,
00:27:24.040 that box a year from now
00:27:26.260 is going to be costing you
00:27:27.820 a lot more money
00:27:29.100 at the store.
00:27:30.380 And when you hit a breaking point,
00:27:32.380 you'll have some food storage.
00:27:34.660 But be careful
00:27:36.480 on what you think
00:27:37.220 your breaking point is
00:27:38.520 because real,
00:27:39.860 real trouble
00:27:40.900 is coming
00:27:42.100 and we have to be prepared
00:27:44.600 and we have to be prepared
00:27:47.360 to help others.
00:27:49.860 This is, I think,
00:27:51.640 the beginnings of the times
00:27:53.580 when I have felt
00:27:55.480 since the beginning with you
00:27:58.000 that you are going to play a role
00:28:00.860 in saving this nation.
00:28:03.360 And I think
00:28:05.120 this is the beginning of it,
00:28:07.460 preparing for those in need.
00:28:10.820 And it is going to be
00:28:11.600 really, really, really hard
00:28:13.720 because you're going to be like,
00:28:15.660 I prepared, they didn't.
00:28:17.560 I know.
00:28:18.540 I know.
00:28:19.420 But we're in this together.
00:28:20.760 You've got to take care
00:28:21.580 of your family first,
00:28:22.900 but we're in this together.
00:28:25.400 That doesn't mean
00:28:26.620 that,
00:28:28.160 it doesn't mean
00:28:30.020 you should tell the world
00:28:31.020 what you're doing
00:28:31.660 because governments
00:28:32.700 will come in
00:28:34.120 and they'll start
00:28:36.340 to make it illegal
00:28:38.760 to hoard food.
00:28:40.740 They will start
00:28:42.080 to demonize people first
00:28:43.820 as hoarders.
00:28:45.680 This is a while away,
00:28:46.840 I think,
00:28:47.540 but that's what will happen.
00:28:49.360 So just
00:28:49.800 keep your mouth quiet
00:28:52.160 and nobody needs
00:28:54.020 to know your business.
00:28:55.160 Just urge
00:28:56.120 the people who get it
00:28:57.880 to begin
00:29:00.000 to just store some food
00:29:02.140 for their family
00:29:03.840 and create a network,
00:29:06.780 if you will,
00:29:07.960 of people who think like you
00:29:09.720 and really understand
00:29:12.000 what's coming
00:29:13.540 and just help each other.
00:29:16.560 Just help each other.
00:29:18.280 So how real do you think
00:29:19.860 the food shortage thing is?
00:29:23.340 I think the food shortage
00:29:24.780 in places like India and Africa,
00:29:27.420 I think millions are going to die.
00:29:30.180 Millions will die.
00:29:31.100 probably worse
00:29:32.560 than anything
00:29:33.040 we've ever seen.
00:29:34.700 If this,
00:29:36.020 if the work,
00:29:36.660 if they come up
00:29:37.580 with a solution today
00:29:38.620 and crops get into the ground,
00:29:40.720 maybe not,
00:29:41.900 but,
00:29:42.160 but it will still be a problem
00:29:45.120 because we're not getting fertilizer.
00:29:47.920 So it will be a situation
00:29:48.960 where maybe we,
00:29:51.220 as a,
00:29:51.760 as the top market
00:29:52.580 in the world
00:29:53.140 are able to acquire this stuff,
00:29:54.540 but at higher prices.
00:29:56.040 Way higher prices.
00:29:57.540 But down the line,
00:30:00.120 the,
00:30:00.340 the,
00:30:00.860 the poorer countries
00:30:02.040 are not even able
00:30:02.660 to acquire it at all.
00:30:04.220 Yeah,
00:30:04.580 or very,
00:30:05.500 very little.
00:30:06.280 It'll all be,
00:30:07.000 it'll be Ethiopia
00:30:07.720 on a grand scale.
00:30:09.220 Do you remember
00:30:09.500 what that was like?
00:30:10.200 Oh yeah,
00:30:10.620 I remember all the commercials.
00:30:11.920 Yeah.
00:30:12.680 And we had to,
00:30:13.780 the,
00:30:14.000 the,
00:30:14.260 we are the world song
00:30:15.020 out of that.
00:30:15.480 Yeah.
00:30:15.660 And that was not worth it.
00:30:16.760 No,
00:30:17.000 I don't know if it solved it.
00:30:18.080 If it did,
00:30:18.480 it's still,
00:30:18.880 I mean,
00:30:19.040 no offense
00:30:19.620 to the African people,
00:30:20.880 but I think they would oppose
00:30:22.160 the song
00:30:22.840 over being saved.
00:30:24.520 I think,
00:30:24.880 I think they'd rather,
00:30:25.880 I think they'd rather starve to death.
00:30:27.680 It might be a little,
00:30:28.580 get a hasty generalization there.
00:30:31.340 Look,
00:30:31.800 I may be speaking
00:30:32.560 for an entire continent here,
00:30:33.820 but I think if they could go back
00:30:34.860 to the 80s
00:30:35.560 and they say,
00:30:35.980 look,
00:30:36.620 will we have generations,
00:30:37.540 generations of our people
00:30:38.880 be alive
00:30:39.440 or that stupid song play again,
00:30:42.100 they would,
00:30:42.720 they would choose,
00:30:43.800 they would choose
00:30:44.540 to delete the song
00:30:45.460 and,
00:30:45.740 and sadly,
00:30:46.960 deal with the repercussions of that.
00:30:48.820 Well,
00:30:49.080 we don't have Michael Jackson around
00:30:50.520 to make a song this time,
00:30:52.480 but it is,
00:30:53.800 it is going to be bad.
00:30:55.600 It's going to be bad everywhere
00:30:56.840 and forget everything else.
00:31:00.080 Just know that a 25% of,
00:31:03.620 of fertilizer comes from Russia.
00:31:08.200 Just the 25% of global.
00:31:10.360 Just 25%.
00:31:11.560 So what do you do here?
00:31:12.580 Because,
00:31:13.040 because it's,
00:31:14.260 I think it's easy for us to say
00:31:15.660 that we've done everything wrong.
00:31:17.180 It's easy,
00:31:18.020 but like,
00:31:18.520 look at the effects
00:31:19.420 of what we've talked
00:31:20.460 about with inflation.
00:31:22.000 The things you're talking about,
00:31:23.420 30 and 40% increases
00:31:24.660 are nothing
00:31:25.800 compared to
00:31:27.120 if we internalized
00:31:28.380 all of our production
00:31:29.180 in the United States.
00:31:30.400 If we got rid of
00:31:31.560 all of this global trade,
00:31:32.840 our prices will go up
00:31:33.780 way more than 30 or 40%.
00:31:35.900 I mean,
00:31:36.580 you know,
00:31:36.920 you would not see,
00:31:38.340 your,
00:31:38.440 your TVs are no longer
00:31:39.620 $400 for a 60 inch.
00:31:41.300 I'll tell you that much.
00:31:42.320 All this stuff goes away
00:31:43.800 without the global stuff,
00:31:45.200 trade,
00:31:46.140 and all of the things
00:31:46.880 associated with it.
00:31:48.000 So the theory going back
00:31:49.600 as,
00:31:50.260 as,
00:31:50.680 as,
00:31:51.060 as globalization,
00:31:53.060 not in the nefarious,
00:31:55.820 you know,
00:31:56.720 UN running our lives
00:31:57.920 sort of way,
00:31:58.600 but in the,
00:31:59.640 hey,
00:31:59.760 we're going to trade
00:32:00.400 with countries
00:32:00.980 because we can,
00:32:02.060 we can turn up production
00:32:04.260 and certain countries
00:32:04.980 will do certain things well.
00:32:06.260 Others will do others.
00:32:07.220 We'll all combine our efforts.
00:32:08.400 And this is why you have
00:32:09.720 Walmart and prices
00:32:10.540 are really low there.
00:32:11.480 So that goes in.
00:32:12.880 And one of the theories was,
00:32:14.500 as we saw new countries
00:32:16.540 get into that system,
00:32:17.700 those countries tended
00:32:19.080 to moderate.
00:32:20.600 They wanted to be involved
00:32:21.800 in the global trade.
00:32:22.800 So they didn't act
00:32:23.960 like psychopaths
00:32:24.940 all the time.
00:32:25.440 So our theory was,
00:32:27.080 if we embrace countries
00:32:29.200 like Russia
00:32:30.000 and like China,
00:32:31.460 they will over time
00:32:33.180 be so interested
00:32:34.280 in these markets
00:32:35.100 that they will stop
00:32:36.140 acting like psychopaths.
00:32:37.580 Now,
00:32:38.220 I think we've seen
00:32:39.300 that with those two countries,
00:32:41.060 that has not worked out
00:32:42.780 very well.
00:32:43.960 However,
00:32:44.580 you've seen it
00:32:45.240 in other areas,
00:32:45.940 you know,
00:32:46.160 Japan is a good example
00:32:47.180 of it working out
00:32:47.880 pretty darn well.
00:32:48.760 So what do you do?
00:32:50.000 Do you just,
00:32:51.240 do you wait longer
00:32:52.480 to bring them in?
00:32:53.940 Because it seemed like
00:32:54.800 we tried to bring them in
00:32:56.140 as an incentive
00:32:57.000 for them to change
00:32:58.100 and instead of letting them
00:32:59.160 change first
00:32:59.940 and then allowing them in.
00:33:01.340 So I think this is,
00:33:02.380 this is the key.
00:33:04.360 Out of 170 countries,
00:33:05.980 95 do not have
00:33:08.920 on their books,
00:33:10.340 95 countries
00:33:11.400 do not have
00:33:12.000 on their books
00:33:12.600 illegal slave trade.
00:33:15.860 They have not made
00:33:16.980 slave trade illegal.
00:33:19.140 Really?
00:33:20.140 95.
00:33:20.780 That's an,
00:33:21.360 that's a mind-boggling stuff.
00:33:22.800 Enormous.
00:33:23.280 95 countries.
00:33:24.220 95 countries
00:33:25.060 have not passed
00:33:26.280 anti-slavery.
00:33:27.840 Now,
00:33:28.460 there's a lot of countries
00:33:30.640 probably in that number
00:33:31.940 because I don't know
00:33:32.660 all the countries,
00:33:33.180 but there's,
00:33:34.060 I'm sure there's some
00:33:34.780 that like don't have
00:33:35.840 a problem
00:33:36.420 with the slave trade.
00:33:37.580 Okay.
00:33:38.380 However,
00:33:39.520 we should set our limits
00:33:41.320 and this has been
00:33:41.860 common sense
00:33:42.480 for a very,
00:33:43.460 very,
00:33:43.900 very long time.
00:33:45.280 If your government
00:33:46.940 doesn't have
00:33:49.120 the same kind
00:33:50.920 of understanding
00:33:51.880 about human rights,
00:33:53.600 we shouldn't be
00:33:54.800 doing trade with you.
00:33:55.720 And just at a basic level,
00:33:57.040 right?
00:33:57.140 You don't have to match
00:33:57.800 all of our policies,
00:33:58.940 but you've got to
00:33:59.760 respect human life.
00:34:01.000 are born to be free.
00:34:03.080 Okay.
00:34:03.300 If you enslave people
00:34:05.280 or build concentration camps
00:34:07.080 or have gulags
00:34:08.200 or whatever,
00:34:09.260 no,
00:34:09.740 I don't think
00:34:10.180 we should do business
00:34:10.860 with you.
00:34:11.360 And that's why
00:34:12.340 we're enslaved
00:34:13.140 to these very,
00:34:14.600 very low prices.
00:34:16.160 It's,
00:34:16.740 it's not that
00:34:17.460 we're getting our,
00:34:18.620 um,
00:34:19.100 some of,
00:34:19.800 some of the stuff
00:34:20.500 we are.
00:34:21.020 It's not like
00:34:21.820 we're,
00:34:22.120 we're hiring people
00:34:23.160 at very low cost
00:34:25.060 and then putting them
00:34:26.800 in slavery.
00:34:28.820 We're getting stuff
00:34:29.920 some places
00:34:30.740 at a very low cost
00:34:31.960 because the cost
00:34:32.820 of living is so low.
00:34:34.300 So they're making
00:34:34.900 a decent wage
00:34:36.100 in their country
00:34:37.560 and for their area.
00:34:38.740 When these countries,
00:34:39.200 a lot of these factories open,
00:34:40.660 they're,
00:34:41.060 the line is around,
00:34:42.600 you know,
00:34:42.740 it's a mile long
00:34:43.380 to get jobs at this place
00:34:44.300 because it's the best job
00:34:45.260 available to that community.
00:34:46.420 Correct.
00:34:46.840 Correct.
00:34:47.400 However,
00:34:47.920 that's not the case in China.
00:34:49.620 Now there might be people
00:34:50.760 lining up around the block
00:34:51.820 in China
00:34:52.320 to have a job here,
00:34:53.400 but they also
00:34:54.540 enslave people.
00:34:56.140 So,
00:34:57.020 no.
00:34:57.760 Yeah.
00:34:57.960 If your country
00:34:59.120 is so diametrically
00:35:00.800 opposed to our system,
00:35:03.000 no,
00:35:03.680 that would include
00:35:04.920 Saudi Arabia,
00:35:06.640 that would include
00:35:07.860 Iran,
00:35:09.000 that would include
00:35:10.180 Russia,
00:35:11.300 China,
00:35:12.480 North Korea,
00:35:13.520 all of these countries
00:35:14.860 that just don't see
00:35:17.060 the world
00:35:17.600 and people
00:35:18.540 the same way.
00:35:19.440 And I think,
00:35:20.180 too,
00:35:20.280 this points to another
00:35:21.400 one of the undersold
00:35:22.760 failures of the
00:35:24.060 Biden administration
00:35:24.860 that people are not
00:35:26.120 talking about,
00:35:26.720 which is
00:35:27.700 when Donald Trump
00:35:29.040 was president
00:35:29.580 of the United States,
00:35:30.640 our relationship
00:35:32.200 with India
00:35:32.940 was never better.
00:35:34.260 They love
00:35:35.240 Donald Trump there.
00:35:36.280 Yeah.
00:35:37.080 Now,
00:35:37.800 they've decided
00:35:38.740 to side with Russia
00:35:39.700 and China
00:35:42.160 and China
00:35:42.920 and our option,
00:35:45.820 right,
00:35:46.100 if we were to lose
00:35:47.660 China
00:35:48.180 as a manufacturing
00:35:49.300 hub,
00:35:50.100 our easiest
00:35:51.380 replacement
00:35:52.060 is going to India
00:35:53.600 where it's a little
00:35:54.620 more expensive
00:35:55.280 but not a lot
00:35:56.040 more expensive.
00:35:56.640 And if they're
00:35:57.240 a close ally,
00:35:58.720 there is some
00:35:59.500 synergy there.
00:36:00.260 We could still
00:36:00.700 probably make
00:36:01.240 some products
00:36:02.060 at reasonable
00:36:02.560 prices
00:36:02.920 and help
00:36:04.080 someone who's
00:36:04.920 in the,
00:36:06.460 they always call it
00:36:07.300 the global
00:36:07.840 democracy,
00:36:08.740 the largest
00:36:09.080 global democracy.
00:36:10.680 India is the
00:36:11.120 biggest country
00:36:11.740 that has
00:36:12.460 some of the
00:36:13.560 trappings
00:36:14.240 of what we would
00:36:15.080 respect as a
00:36:16.220 government.
00:36:17.360 And we seem
00:36:19.420 to be losing
00:36:19.940 them right now.
00:36:20.760 And that's
00:36:21.120 a big deal.
00:36:22.440 We're going
00:36:23.180 to lose
00:36:23.800 them.
00:36:24.600 We're going
00:36:24.860 to lose
00:36:25.480 Taiwan.
00:36:26.940 We're going
00:36:27.280 to lose
00:36:28.020 possibly
00:36:30.000 the Philippines.
00:36:31.600 We will
00:36:31.920 lose Vietnam.
00:36:33.280 All of
00:36:33.740 those countries
00:36:34.860 that provide
00:36:36.480 low cost
00:36:38.840 labor.
00:36:39.480 We'll lose
00:36:40.280 all of those
00:36:41.240 if we continue
00:36:42.900 down the path
00:36:44.520 we're on.
00:36:45.360 That will
00:36:46.180 leave us
00:36:46.860 with just
00:36:47.560 half the world.
00:36:48.760 Huh.
00:36:49.480 Almost like
00:36:50.620 what the Great
00:36:51.260 Reset is calling
00:36:52.260 for.
00:36:53.440 They will
00:36:54.200 offer the
00:36:54.800 solution of
00:36:55.700 the end
00:36:56.460 of globalization.
00:36:58.180 You'll hear
00:36:58.520 that.
00:36:59.480 This is the
00:37:00.020 end of
00:37:00.360 globalization.
00:37:01.340 We've got
00:37:01.840 to do
00:37:02.160 things.
00:37:02.780 We've got
00:37:03.360 to do
00:37:03.680 things closer
00:37:04.580 to home.
00:37:05.720 And so it
00:37:06.540 will appear
00:37:07.160 to be the
00:37:07.700 end of
00:37:08.160 globalization,
00:37:08.620 but it
00:37:09.080 will not
00:37:09.520 be the
00:37:09.960 end of
00:37:10.400 globalization.
00:37:11.520 It will
00:37:12.180 be what
00:37:12.900 you interpret
00:37:14.020 as more
00:37:15.600 global
00:37:16.200 controls,
00:37:17.320 but we'll
00:37:19.420 make stuff
00:37:19.900 closer to
00:37:20.480 home and
00:37:20.860 not with
00:37:21.260 China or
00:37:21.860 Russia.
00:37:23.140 Uh-huh.
00:37:24.320 Really?
00:37:24.820 Because we're
00:37:25.300 currently doing
00:37:26.100 a deal with
00:37:26.880 Iran.
00:37:28.380 Just saying.
00:37:29.760 It's going to
00:37:30.240 work out well,
00:37:30.800 I think.
00:37:31.460 This is a
00:37:32.600 nightmare that's
00:37:33.180 coming.
00:37:33.800 All right.
00:37:34.600 I'm a guy who
00:37:35.400 likes solutions to
00:37:36.200 problems.
00:37:36.900 Several years
00:37:37.420 ago, I had
00:37:38.300 finally had enough
00:37:39.340 of dealing with
00:37:39.960 real estate agents
00:37:40.740 who just couldn't
00:37:41.500 cut it, just
00:37:41.980 couldn't sell the
00:37:42.620 house.
00:37:43.980 And, you know,
00:37:44.800 their solution
00:37:45.520 was, I'm going to
00:37:46.180 put up more
00:37:46.740 balloons.
00:37:47.540 I swear.
00:37:49.280 Last time,
00:37:50.140 last time one
00:37:51.060 of the real
00:37:51.420 estate agents
00:37:51.980 was in my
00:37:52.500 house was like
00:37:53.300 the third time
00:37:53.960 that he said,
00:37:54.400 I'm going to
00:37:54.600 put up some
00:37:55.000 balloons.
00:37:55.360 We're going to
00:37:55.560 have an open
00:37:55.940 house.
00:37:56.240 And I said,
00:37:56.520 get out of the
00:37:56.840 house, get out
00:37:57.480 of the house
00:37:57.760 right now.
00:37:58.200 Get out.
00:37:59.200 No, no,
00:37:59.920 that's not the
00:38:00.540 best way to do
00:38:01.220 it.
00:38:01.380 There are things
00:38:02.800 that real estate
00:38:03.580 agents do that
00:38:04.740 make them the
00:38:05.720 best in your
00:38:06.580 area.
00:38:07.720 If you're
00:38:07.940 planning to sell
00:38:08.840 your, and
00:38:09.400 balloons are not
00:38:09.980 one of them.
00:38:10.640 If you're
00:38:11.340 planning to sell
00:38:12.400 your home,
00:38:13.020 you need a
00:38:14.820 team of
00:38:15.260 experts.
00:38:16.060 You need
00:38:16.380 somebody who's
00:38:16.980 the best at
00:38:18.020 selling, at
00:38:18.820 closing, at
00:38:19.740 getting customers
00:38:20.940 to come in
00:38:21.720 and see it.
00:38:22.680 And that's all
00:38:23.200 digital now.
00:38:24.400 We find those
00:38:25.560 real estate agents
00:38:26.440 for you and
00:38:26.940 pass their name
00:38:27.520 on to you as
00:38:28.340 a free service
00:38:29.140 to you.
00:38:29.940 I want you to
00:38:30.740 see the difference.
00:38:31.440 Go to
00:38:31.640 realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:38:33.720 The name says it
00:38:34.360 all, realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:38:39.760 Stay informed.
00:38:41.340 Sign up for the

00:39:00.260 You want to
00:39:01.120 know how you
00:39:01.680 get to the
00:39:02.340 Zill, which is
00:39:03.220 one of the
00:39:03.580 crappy cars that
00:39:04.580 the Soviet Union
00:39:05.460 was making?
00:39:07.060 Follow me on
00:39:07.860 this one.
00:39:09.560 The White
00:39:10.380 House was
00:39:11.740 considering
00:39:12.660 sending
00:39:13.900 Americans
00:39:14.640 gas cards.
00:39:16.960 Now, follow
00:39:17.320 me on this.
00:39:18.320 So they
00:39:18.620 wanted to
00:39:19.040 send gas
00:39:19.860 cards, but
00:39:21.080 the IRS
00:39:21.860 said they
00:39:22.240 couldn't do
00:39:22.680 it because
00:39:22.960 it's in the
00:39:23.380 middle of tax
00:39:23.980 season.
00:39:24.400 Good thing
00:39:24.680 they have
00:39:24.960 $100 million
00:39:25.460 coming this
00:39:26.320 year extra
00:39:27.000 so they can
00:39:27.600 hire some
00:39:28.100 people to
00:39:28.440 do things
00:39:28.780 like this.
00:39:29.380 But just
00:39:30.040 too difficult
00:39:30.840 and hard.
00:39:31.720 It would be
00:39:32.220 poorly targeted.
00:39:33.040 targeted so
00:39:33.820 they're not
00:39:34.160 going to send
00:39:34.480 out the gas
00:39:34.960 cards.
00:39:35.320 All right.
00:39:36.000 Notice that
00:39:36.480 we're poorly
00:39:37.040 targeted.
00:39:37.860 Also, probably
00:39:38.940 a lot of fraud
00:39:39.740 would be going
00:39:40.240 on.
00:39:40.560 I mean, people
00:39:40.980 going door to
00:39:41.640 door and
00:39:42.040 mailbox to
00:39:42.620 mailbox taking
00:39:43.320 people's gas
00:39:44.020 cards, right?
00:39:45.180 Well, that would
00:39:45.940 say that would
00:39:46.640 make an outcry.
00:39:47.600 They're not
00:39:47.900 getting to the
00:39:48.440 right people and
00:39:49.740 people are
00:39:50.140 stealing it.
00:39:50.780 You're right.
00:39:51.560 We need
00:39:52.080 something more
00:39:52.740 efficient like,
00:39:53.780 I don't know,
00:39:54.480 a digital
00:39:55.100 programmable
00:39:56.700 currency that
00:39:57.640 could just say
00:39:58.360 you can only
00:39:59.160 spend this at a
00:40:00.120 gas station if
00:40:01.520 your name is
00:40:02.180 such-and-such.
00:40:03.360 Wouldn't that
00:40:03.760 be great?
00:40:05.140 Except, we
00:40:07.140 have to give
00:40:07.780 everybody like
00:40:08.380 a $100 gas
00:40:09.760 card.
00:40:10.400 You know, you
00:40:10.860 have $100 this
00:40:12.220 month or the
00:40:13.200 next two weeks
00:40:13.980 to spend that
00:40:15.180 will be okayed
00:40:17.020 at the gas
00:40:17.640 station.
00:40:18.620 Anything else?
00:40:19.460 I mean, you're
00:40:20.200 on your own
00:40:20.940 because, well,
00:40:21.760 darn it.
00:40:23.660 Because of the
00:40:25.400 E and ESG,
00:40:26.860 all the stations
00:40:28.280 have decided to
00:40:29.140 only go with
00:40:31.020 the digital
00:40:31.620 currency, so
00:40:32.660 you're not
00:40:32.960 going to be
00:40:33.180 able to buy
00:40:33.620 gas.
00:40:34.360 But we
00:40:35.200 could give
00:40:36.000 you a
00:40:36.320 discount on
00:40:37.500 a new car
00:40:38.660 that is really
00:40:39.740 fuel efficient.
00:40:40.760 It's a union
00:40:41.560 made car, so
00:40:42.740 it really helps
00:40:43.820 the unions out
00:40:44.880 and all of
00:40:45.560 those American
00:40:46.180 workers.
00:40:47.120 So we'll give
00:40:47.580 you that.
00:40:48.760 Well, once you
00:40:49.400 have people in
00:40:50.020 that trap, what
00:40:50.780 do you think
00:40:51.260 those union
00:40:51.920 workers begin
00:40:53.240 to make?
00:40:54.540 The zil.
00:40:56.580 Because it's
00:40:57.420 government dictated,
00:40:59.220 there's no
00:41:00.020 competition,
00:41:01.020 for it.
00:41:02.220 Congratulations.
00:41:04.020 Welcome back
00:41:04.920 to the stage,
00:41:06.580 the zil.
00:41:07.640 Yeah.

00:41:09.140 in America.
00:41:11.180 Back in a
00:41:11.840 minute.
00:41:14.740 First, let me
00:41:15.340 tell you about
00:41:15.680 rough greens.
00:41:16.480 If you're a
00:41:16.800 dog owner, you
00:41:17.380 want to give
00:41:18.540 them a long,
00:41:19.380 happy, healthy
00:41:20.120 life.
00:41:21.240 Uno is so
00:41:22.540 funny.
00:41:23.980 Last night, he
00:41:24.940 just would not
00:41:26.140 stop at the
00:41:26.680 ball.
00:41:26.900 He kept
00:41:27.140 bringing it.
00:41:27.520 I was sitting
00:41:27.860 on the couch.
00:41:28.680 He kept
00:41:28.960 bringing it up,
00:41:29.620 looking at me
00:41:30.040 like, come
00:41:30.520 on, come
00:41:31.080 on, let's
00:41:31.440 play, let's
00:41:32.020 play.
00:41:32.420 I'd play with
00:41:32.960 him for a
00:41:33.340 while, then
00:41:34.020 he'd run away
00:41:34.560 with the ball
00:41:35.000 and he'd lay
00:41:35.420 down, and
00:41:36.700 then he'd come
00:41:37.160 back up.
00:41:37.660 Come on, come
00:41:38.300 on, let's
00:41:38.640 play all
00:41:39.640 night.

00:43:33.240 in about her
00:43:33.700 experience with
00:43:34.280 relief factor.
00:43:35.320 She says,
00:43:36.100 relief factor
00:43:36.820 got me out
00:43:37.380 of pain.
00:43:37.840 I can now
00:43:38.340 work in my
00:43:38.820 flower garden
00:43:39.360 again.
00:43:39.680 I can walk
00:43:40.040 my dog.
00:43:40.620 I can run
00:43:41.000 up and down
00:43:41.780 my stairs
00:43:42.280 again.
00:43:42.860 Without
00:43:43.160 being in
00:43:43.700 pain.
00:43:44.480 I also
00:43:44.940 sleep through
00:43:45.600 the night
00:43:46.000 without an
00:43:46.480 ice pack
00:43:47.000 on my

00:43:48.020 Thank you.

00:44:03.100 a drug,
00:44:03.740 but it has
00:44:04.980 four different

00:44:11.380 most of our
00:44:12.060 pain.

00:44:39.180 All right,
00:44:39.860 I want to
00:44:40.120 talk to you a
00:44:40.480 little bit
00:44:40.720 about what
00:44:41.440 is happening
00:44:42.040 over in
00:44:43.140 Ukraine.
00:44:44.020 First of
00:44:44.480 all,
00:44:45.120 the Kremlin
00:44:46.300 is warning
00:44:47.820 against panic
00:44:48.880 buying as
00:44:49.820 food prices
00:44:50.760 are rising
00:44:51.780 over in
00:44:53.080 Russia.
00:44:54.340 They're saying
00:44:54.860 no hoarding,
00:44:55.800 no panic
00:44:56.580 buying.
00:44:57.540 This is
00:44:58.760 going to
00:44:59.280 start happening
00:45:00.040 all over the
00:45:00.860 world.
00:45:01.500 Please be
00:45:02.120 prepared for
00:45:02.860 it.
00:45:03.000 I went over
00:45:03.460 it in
00:45:03.840 hour number
00:45:04.420 one.
00:45:05.440 If you
00:45:05.580 didn't hear
00:45:06.220 that in
00:45:07.040 the first
00:45:07.680 hour,
00:45:08.040 make sure
00:45:08.380 you grab
00:45:08.840 the podcast.
00:45:10.520 So what
00:45:10.960 is Putin
00:45:11.500 really after?
00:45:13.480 Who is
00:45:14.240 Vladimir Putin?
00:45:15.480 What is
00:45:15.800 his game?
00:45:17.440 So I read
00:45:17.880 a book
00:45:18.320 called
00:45:19.240 Putin's
00:45:19.920 Playbook
00:45:20.500 recently by
00:45:22.000 Rebecca
00:45:22.500 Koffler.
00:45:23.220 She is a
00:45:24.300 U.S.
00:45:24.920 intelligence
00:45:25.380 expert.
00:45:25.940 She was
00:45:26.820 from behind
00:45:28.460 the Iron
00:45:29.600 Curtain.
00:45:30.000 She came
00:45:30.380 to America
00:45:30.960 when she
00:45:31.440 was young.
00:45:32.160 After 9-11,
00:45:33.420 she decided
00:45:33.940 that she
00:45:34.320 wanted to
00:45:34.720 help protect
00:45:35.340 her new
00:45:35.700 country.
00:45:36.540 So she
00:45:36.880 went to
00:45:37.480 work with
00:45:38.540 the Central
00:45:39.360 Intelligence
00:45:39.920 Agency and
00:45:41.800 she was part
00:45:43.200 of the red
00:45:43.640 teams that
00:45:44.560 we've heard so
00:45:45.320 much about
00:45:45.780 with the
00:45:46.100 Pentagon
00:45:46.380 trying to
00:45:46.980 war game.
00:45:48.040 I have to
00:45:48.500 tell you,
00:45:48.880 I read her
00:45:49.500 book and
00:45:50.380 I think this
00:45:51.620 is one of
00:45:52.320 the people
00:45:52.780 that I
00:45:53.300 hope everybody
00:45:53.920 is listening
00:45:54.460 to in
00:45:54.980 Washington
00:45:56.040 because I
00:45:57.000 think she
00:45:57.340 really
00:45:57.980 understands
00:45:58.800 Putin.
00:46:00.280 And if
00:46:00.980 I may say,
00:46:02.900 Rebecca,
00:46:03.740 you had me
00:46:04.640 at Alexander
00:46:05.640 Dugan.
00:46:07.260 Welcome.
00:46:09.560 Thank you,
00:46:10.400 Glenn.
00:46:10.900 It's such an
00:46:11.560 honor to be
00:46:12.100 here with you
00:46:12.840 and your
00:46:13.540 audience.
00:46:14.300 Thank you.
00:46:14.860 So,
00:46:15.320 Rebecca,
00:46:15.880 tell us a
00:46:16.580 little bit
00:46:16.820 about your
00:46:17.260 background so
00:46:17.980 people know
00:46:18.480 exactly who
00:46:19.120 you are and
00:46:20.340 how you know
00:46:21.000 these things.
00:46:21.640 Of course.
00:46:23.560 So,
00:46:24.000 I was born
00:46:24.440 and raised
00:46:24.900 behind the
00:46:25.480 Iron Curtain
00:46:26.140 in the
00:46:26.780 former
00:46:27.260 Soviet Union
00:46:28.520 and my
00:46:30.100 parents were
00:46:31.400 anti-communist.
00:46:32.860 They didn't
00:46:33.140 agree with
00:46:33.840 the Soviet
00:46:34.580 socialist
00:46:34.980 system and
00:46:36.180 they were
00:46:36.440 raising me
00:46:37.220 to go to
00:46:38.260 America one
00:46:39.000 day, the
00:46:39.480 land of
00:46:40.080 freedom and
00:46:40.600 opportunity and
00:46:41.480 justice.
00:46:42.420 And so,
00:46:43.040 I immigrated
00:46:43.680 in 1989
00:46:44.620 to America
00:46:46.920 and then after
00:46:47.660 September 11,
00:46:48.520 as you said,
00:46:49.440 I went to
00:46:50.060 serve in the
00:46:50.840 intelligence
00:46:51.180 community and
00:46:53.000 because I
00:46:53.580 wanted to
00:46:53.960 protect, you
00:46:54.640 know, help
00:46:55.020 protect my
00:46:55.580 country against
00:46:56.800 foreign threats
00:46:57.600 and I knew
00:46:58.160 that sooner or
00:46:58.900 later, even
00:46:59.780 though the
00:47:00.360 Soviet Union
00:47:00.940 collapsed, it
00:47:02.260 will emerge,
00:47:03.520 you know, as
00:47:04.220 a foreign
00:47:04.580 threat.
00:47:05.340 I didn't know
00:47:06.160 how soon it
00:47:06.980 was going to
00:47:07.420 happen, but
00:47:08.420 there we are
00:47:09.240 with the
00:47:09.540 conflicts in
00:47:10.120 Ukraine and
00:47:10.820 it's not
00:47:11.220 really about
00:47:11.760 Ukraine, Glenn.
00:47:12.600 It's a proxy
00:47:13.300 war between
00:47:14.380 Russia and
00:47:16.000 the United
00:47:16.560 States for
00:47:17.860 control in
00:47:18.920 Eurasia.
00:47:19.540 Okay, explain
00:47:21.500 to people what
00:47:22.200 Eurasia is in
00:47:23.180 case they
00:47:23.500 don't know.
00:47:25.120 Sure, Eurasia
00:47:26.740 is the biggest
00:47:27.540 landmass.
00:47:29.220 It's basically
00:47:29.980 Russia occupies
00:47:31.200 the center of
00:47:32.040 Eurasia and
00:47:33.940 China is up
00:47:36.220 there, obviously,
00:47:37.780 and more than
00:47:38.920 Russia, it's
00:47:39.800 what the
00:47:40.640 Russians believe
00:47:41.340 is strategic
00:47:42.280 buffer that
00:47:43.500 they have
00:47:43.860 relied on for
00:47:45.060 centuries for
00:47:46.040 their security,
00:47:47.400 including in
00:47:48.320 that strategic
00:47:49.040 buffer, is
00:47:50.260 Ukraine,
00:47:51.220 Moldova,
00:47:52.080 Belarus,
00:47:53.080 Georgia, and
00:47:54.280 a bunch of
00:47:54.920 what we call
00:47:55.760 sons.
00:47:57.080 And with the
00:47:57.460 collapse of the
00:47:58.080 Soviet Union,
00:47:59.180 the United
00:48:00.220 States security
00:48:01.060 establishment
00:48:01.800 assumed, I
00:48:03.240 don't know
00:48:03.580 really why, but
00:48:04.820 assumed that
00:48:05.960 these countries
00:48:06.880 are going to
00:48:07.360 be democracies
00:48:08.940 and nothing,
00:48:11.240 you know, could
00:48:11.720 be further from
00:48:12.400 the truth because
00:48:13.080 there's nothing in
00:48:14.360 Russia's history
00:48:15.120 or in the
00:48:15.940 history of those
00:48:16.980 other countries
00:48:17.560 that points to
00:48:18.320 the fact that
00:48:19.280 democracy is
00:48:20.600 even a viable
00:48:21.800 system of
00:48:23.540 governance.
00:48:24.580 And so at
00:48:25.580 this point, we
00:48:26.520 are basically
00:48:27.260 on a collision
00:48:29.540 course geopolitically
00:48:30.980 with Russia
00:48:31.860 because the
00:48:32.560 United States
00:48:33.200 wants to make
00:48:33.900 sure that we
00:48:35.940 call the shots
00:48:37.240 in that area of
00:48:38.300 the world, not
00:48:39.020 China, not
00:48:39.700 Russia, but we
00:48:40.620 do.
00:48:41.200 And the Russians,
00:48:41.920 of course, want
00:48:43.180 to make sure
00:48:43.820 that they keep
00:48:45.320 their security
00:48:46.560 perimeter in
00:48:48.520 their control
00:48:49.420 and not us.
00:48:50.500 And that's what
00:48:51.060 this conflict is
00:48:51.780 all about.
00:48:52.640 So, but if
00:48:53.480 you look at
00:48:54.540 the west
00:48:57.700 side of
00:48:58.720 Eurasia, you
00:49:00.440 would see
00:49:01.000 Poland and
00:49:02.100 almost every
00:49:03.640 time Russia
00:49:04.780 has become
00:49:05.780 under attack,
00:49:06.500 it's come
00:49:07.040 through Poland.
00:49:08.120 Don't they
00:49:08.780 look at that
00:49:09.340 as a gateway
00:49:10.000 still and
00:49:10.740 want Poland?
00:49:12.020 You are
00:49:13.900 exactly correct.
00:49:16.280 So, the
00:49:17.080 Russians, every
00:49:17.960 war except
00:49:18.920 the Mongol
00:49:19.660 Tata yoke
00:49:20.940 back in
00:49:21.740 1238 came
00:49:23.560 from the
00:49:23.980 west.
00:49:24.460 And this
00:49:24.760 is why
00:49:25.280 exactly Putin
00:49:26.720 fears NATO.
00:49:28.880 He has
00:49:29.800 been talking
00:49:30.540 about the
00:49:32.000 red lines,
00:49:32.940 right?
00:49:33.680 So, he
00:49:34.820 wants to
00:49:35.780 effectively
00:49:36.460 ensure that
00:49:38.400 he has
00:49:40.200 Ukraine back
00:49:41.640 into his
00:49:42.160 orbit, and
00:49:43.220 then depending
00:49:43.760 on what
00:49:44.320 happens with
00:49:44.960 this conflict,
00:49:46.280 obviously the
00:49:47.260 Baltics would
00:49:48.040 be next on
00:49:49.300 the target
00:49:50.640 list.
00:49:51.520 Now, Poland
00:49:52.580 and the
00:49:53.140 Baltics, the
00:49:53.880 threshold for
00:49:54.980 Putin's invading
00:49:55.900 those countries
00:49:56.520 is like high
00:49:57.220 because they're
00:49:57.740 NATO members,
00:49:58.640 right?
00:49:59.300 Yes.
00:49:59.620 But ultimately,
00:50:00.720 you're right.
00:50:01.240 You mentioned
00:50:02.140 Dugan and
00:50:03.560 the whole
00:50:04.520 school of
00:50:04.920 thought, the
00:50:05.600 Atlanticism
00:50:06.360 versus
00:50:06.780 Eurasianism.
00:50:07.700 It's basically
00:50:08.720 the perennial
00:50:10.920 sort of
00:50:11.600 struggle
00:50:12.320 between the
00:50:13.480 giants.
00:50:14.560 And make
00:50:15.080 no mistake,
00:50:15.800 Putin wants
00:50:16.680 to make sure
00:50:17.140 he makes
00:50:17.760 Russia great
00:50:18.400 again, and
00:50:18.960 he views
00:50:19.660 himself, and
00:50:20.620 the Russians
00:50:21.080 view themselves
00:50:21.840 as a superpower
00:50:23.120 on par with
00:50:24.220 the United
00:50:24.640 States, and
00:50:25.460 not a junior
00:50:26.360 partner, as
00:50:27.300 they feel that
00:50:28.240 they've been
00:50:28.640 treated.
00:50:29.540 All right, so
00:50:30.440 this weekend,
00:50:31.880 Putin used
00:50:32.960 a hypersonic
00:50:33.840 missile, which
00:50:35.220 as far as I can
00:50:37.360 tell, talking
00:50:38.040 to military
00:50:39.180 experts, the
00:50:40.480 reason to
00:50:41.280 use or to
00:50:42.020 have a
00:50:42.440 hypersonic
00:50:42.940 missile is
00:50:43.700 for long
00:50:44.300 range because
00:50:45.020 it gets
00:50:45.420 there so
00:50:45.840 fast and
00:50:46.300 you can't
00:50:46.680 shoot it
00:50:47.020 out.
00:50:48.460 So he
00:50:49.620 was using
00:50:50.140 it, though,
00:50:50.540 in Ukraine,
00:50:51.300 which to
00:50:52.020 me just
00:50:52.600 seems like
00:50:53.620 signaling we
00:50:55.740 we've got a
00:50:56.860 lot more and
00:50:58.100 America, we
00:50:59.220 do have the
00:50:59.840 hypersonic
00:51:00.400 missile and we
00:51:01.460 could put a
00:51:01.960 nuke on it
00:51:02.480 or whatever
00:51:02.920 and we can
00:51:03.400 hit you and
00:51:04.060 you can't
00:51:04.660 stop us.
00:51:05.320 Am I
00:51:06.560 reading that
00:51:07.240 right?
00:51:08.460 You're 100%
00:51:09.600 correct, Glenn,
00:51:10.680 and I
00:51:11.640 dispute the
00:51:13.460 Pentagon's
00:51:14.340 assessment that
00:51:15.200 it's not an
00:51:16.060 escalation.
00:51:17.180 It's totally
00:51:18.020 an escalation.
00:51:19.260 As you said,
00:51:20.440 this is a
00:51:21.400 dual-capable
00:51:22.540 system.
00:51:23.280 You can put a
00:51:24.000 conventional
00:51:24.480 warhead on it
00:51:25.520 or you can put a
00:51:26.460 nuclear warhead
00:51:27.280 on it.
00:51:28.460 So the way
00:51:29.600 that this
00:51:29.940 conflict started,
00:51:31.400 if you remember,
00:51:32.740 Putin not only
00:51:33.940 assembled 100
00:51:35.200 390,000
00:51:36.680 troops on
00:51:37.840 the border
00:51:38.280 all but
00:51:38.720 encircling
00:51:39.220 Ukraine, but
00:51:40.240 also he
00:51:40.960 conducted a
00:51:41.840 nuclear exercise
00:51:42.800 and so he
00:51:44.060 has been
00:51:44.460 steadily climbing
00:51:45.940 the escalation
00:51:47.360 ladder step
00:51:48.280 by step and
00:51:49.360 we are right
00:51:50.060 now on the
00:51:51.560 trajectory to
00:51:52.400 nuclear warfare.
00:51:53.960 So he's
00:51:54.680 signaling, you're
00:51:55.700 correct, he's
00:51:56.380 strategic messaging
00:51:57.200 to us, I
00:51:59.280 have high
00:52:00.160 tolerance for
00:52:00.840 nuclear warfare
00:52:02.280 and you don't.
00:52:03.400 I have this
00:52:04.620 particular weapon
00:52:05.500 that has never
00:52:06.220 been used in
00:52:07.660 combat before
00:52:08.420 and you don't
00:52:09.680 and it's
00:52:10.900 nearly impossible
00:52:11.920 to intercept.
00:52:13.460 And so for the
00:52:14.140 Pentagon to say
00:52:14.960 that this is not
00:52:15.700 escalation, they
00:52:17.000 completely fail to
00:52:18.640 understand who their
00:52:19.740 strategic opponent
00:52:20.520 is, Vladimir Putin,
00:52:21.840 how conniving and
00:52:23.120 how manipulative
00:52:24.560 he is and
00:52:26.120 they're totally not
00:52:27.280 prepared, Glenn.
00:52:28.440 So what if Russia
00:52:29.620 uses this weapon?
00:52:30.620 We are now
00:52:31.860 struggling to
00:52:32.960 really grasping
00:52:34.000 at straws, what
00:52:35.160 to do with them
00:52:35.880 and it's very
00:52:36.520 evident to
00:52:37.180 everybody.
00:52:38.020 So is this a
00:52:38.940 possible way of
00:52:40.240 because as I
00:52:41.440 understand it,
00:52:42.820 Putin believes
00:52:44.280 in escalation
00:52:45.800 to de-escalation,
00:52:47.820 in other words,
00:52:49.000 ramp it up
00:52:49.860 fast to scare
00:52:52.340 the living bejesus
00:52:53.320 out of people,
00:52:54.340 maybe even using
00:52:55.600 a tactical nuke
00:52:56.760 so the rest of
00:52:58.020 the world will
00:52:59.040 come to the
00:52:59.740 bargaining table
00:53:01.060 and say,
00:53:01.600 okay, okay,
00:53:02.140 okay, let's
00:53:02.700 work things out.
00:53:04.940 Is that possible
00:53:05.900 what's happening
00:53:08.500 and especially
00:53:09.360 with the hyper
00:53:10.020 weapon, instead
00:53:10.680 of using a
00:53:11.320 tactical nuke,
00:53:12.240 he uses this?
00:53:14.160 Yes, absolutely.
00:53:15.860 You just
00:53:16.500 articulated
00:53:17.320 Russia's nuclear
00:53:18.900 doctrine,
00:53:19.680 escalate to
00:53:20.280 de-escalate,
00:53:21.120 that was
00:53:21.620 developed
00:53:22.300 specifically on
00:53:23.680 Putin's orders
00:53:24.600 for an
00:53:25.860 eventual
00:53:26.440 conflict.
00:53:27.340 The Russians
00:53:27.720 believe that
00:53:28.720 sooner or
00:53:29.480 later, a war
00:53:30.680 between the
00:53:31.220 United States
00:53:32.000 and Russia
00:53:33.480 is inevitable.
00:53:35.140 Mark these
00:53:35.640 words,
00:53:36.120 inevitable, I
00:53:36.980 quote, and
00:53:38.200 because they
00:53:38.860 fear U.S.
00:53:39.920 conventional
00:53:40.520 superiority,
00:53:41.920 they believe
00:53:42.680 that they
00:53:43.480 overmatch us
00:53:45.120 in tactical
00:53:45.940 nukes because
00:53:46.600 the ratio
00:53:47.300 right now is
00:53:48.300 1 to 10
00:53:49.140 with Russia
00:53:50.100 having 2,000
00:53:52.280 tactical nukes
00:53:53.580 and we
00:53:54.240 have only
00:53:55.120 200.
00:53:56.220 And this
00:53:56.520 is exactly
00:53:57.080 why Putin
00:53:58.160 wants, or
00:53:59.380 plans rather,
00:54:00.340 or envisions
00:54:01.240 crossing the
00:54:02.080 nuclear threshold
00:54:03.400 by popping a
00:54:04.740 tactical nuke
00:54:05.500 somewhere in
00:54:06.240 Europe or in
00:54:07.100 Ukraine in
00:54:08.860 order for us
00:54:09.620 to get
00:54:10.360 confused, stand
00:54:11.280 down, and
00:54:11.900 really cause
00:54:12.980 like a
00:54:13.400 strategic pause.
00:54:14.720 And in the
00:54:15.000 meantime, he
00:54:15.780 would want to
00:54:16.320 move in and
00:54:17.560 decapitate Ukraine,
00:54:19.420 remove the
00:54:20.120 landscape from
00:54:20.840 power as he
00:54:22.080 was planning to.
00:54:23.580 I mean, you
00:54:24.960 would think, I
00:54:25.840 mean, the
00:54:26.880 rest of the
00:54:27.540 world has
00:54:28.980 looked at
00:54:29.500 nukes for
00:54:30.340 50 years now
00:54:31.820 at least, and
00:54:32.360 went, this is
00:54:33.680 crazy.
00:54:34.440 I mean, there's
00:54:34.800 no way to
00:54:35.400 win this.
00:54:36.140 We won
00:54:37.520 through mutually
00:54:38.320 assured destruction.
00:54:40.740 Why does he
00:54:41.700 think that a
00:54:42.460 tactical nuke
00:54:43.460 wouldn't garner
00:54:45.560 a massive
00:54:46.600 response from
00:54:47.500 the rest of
00:54:48.020 the world just
00:54:48.940 because he has
00:54:49.720 more nukes?
00:54:50.380 He is
00:54:52.000 why, Glenn,
00:54:53.820 because he, the
00:54:55.100 Russians have
00:54:55.920 been watching
00:54:56.780 and paying
00:54:57.580 attention very
00:54:58.480 closely to
00:54:59.560 what our
00:55:00.180 defense policy
00:55:01.080 is.
00:55:01.560 And if you
00:55:02.400 remember, under
00:55:03.500 President Obama,
00:55:04.680 we had the
00:55:05.120 initiative Global
00:55:06.480 Zero.
00:55:07.380 We want to
00:55:08.240 zero out our
00:55:09.920 nuclear capability.
00:55:11.920 All this talk,
00:55:13.520 you know, Putin
00:55:13.980 understands that we
00:55:15.060 have very low
00:55:16.300 pain threshold.
00:55:17.680 We can't even
00:55:18.360 talk about
00:55:19.320 nukes, you
00:55:20.360 know, without
00:55:21.260 really kind of
00:55:22.440 like making it
00:55:23.320 sound like we
00:55:24.200 are absolutely
00:55:25.080 not going to
00:55:26.040 go there.
00:55:26.700 But that is
00:55:27.380 exactly why he
00:55:29.180 wants to use
00:55:30.120 it, okay?
00:55:31.140 Because he
00:55:31.960 knows that we
00:55:33.460 will not use
00:55:35.100 it, or he
00:55:35.540 thinks, rather,
00:55:36.620 that we will
00:55:37.220 not use it.
00:55:38.160 And that is
00:55:39.260 why he is
00:55:40.460 planning to do
00:55:41.540 this, because
00:55:42.340 he believes that
00:55:43.440 we have, we
00:55:44.800 don't have the
00:55:45.600 cojones, if
00:55:46.460 you will, to
00:55:47.520 respond, or
00:55:48.420 even preempt
00:55:49.480 him.
00:55:50.960 So, are you
00:55:52.080 predicting that
00:55:52.940 he will use at
00:55:53.980 least a tactical
00:55:54.740 nuke?
00:55:56.540 Okay, so, the
00:55:58.160 threshold for
00:55:59.580 using those is
00:56:01.100 high, okay?
00:56:02.220 It has to be a
00:56:03.720 very specific
00:56:04.520 battlefield scenario
00:56:05.920 where Putin feels
00:56:07.780 so cornered, you
00:56:09.720 know, like a
00:56:10.280 rat, like that
00:56:11.260 rat from his
00:56:11.920 childhood that he
00:56:13.020 was talking about.
00:56:14.660 He is in the
00:56:15.560 corner, and
00:56:16.260 believe me, right
00:56:17.080 now, he does
00:56:17.740 feel that way,
00:56:18.380 because things
00:56:19.020 are not going
00:56:19.620 well for
00:56:20.120 Vladimir Putin.
00:56:21.100 He has
00:56:22.140 completely
00:56:22.620 miscalculated
00:56:23.740 the Ukrainian
00:56:24.500 people's will
00:56:25.220 to fight, the
00:56:26.540 leadership of
00:56:27.760 President Zelensky,
00:56:29.120 and so, if he
00:56:30.420 perceives that
00:56:31.540 we are about
00:56:32.840 to intervene,
00:56:34.140 we being NATO
00:56:35.460 and the United
00:56:36.340 States, on
00:56:37.200 behalf of
00:56:37.780 Ukraine, at
00:56:39.180 that point, he
00:56:40.500 will feel like
00:56:41.500 a loss is
00:56:42.500 inevitable, that
00:56:43.960 would be the
00:56:45.240 scenario where
00:56:46.620 he would use
00:56:47.960 that.
00:56:48.980 Holy cow.
00:56:50.220 Okay, Rebecca
00:56:51.220 Koffler is
00:56:51.940 talking to her.
00:56:52.520 She is the
00:56:52.980 author of
00:56:53.440 Putin's
00:56:53.920 playbook.
00:56:54.500 I can't
00:56:54.880 recommend it
00:56:55.380 highly enough.
00:56:56.100 I mean, I
00:56:57.360 read it,
00:56:58.980 finished, I
00:56:59.760 think, last
00:57:00.240 week.
00:57:01.000 It is, it's
00:57:02.120 really, truly
00:57:02.800 tremendous to
00:57:03.480 give you a
00:57:03.940 real insight
00:57:04.820 into Putin and
00:57:06.460 what you're
00:57:06.860 dealing with,
00:57:07.900 and especially
00:57:08.680 she goes into
00:57:09.660 Alexander Dugan,
00:57:10.740 which very few
00:57:11.580 people do, and
00:57:13.040 she understands
00:57:13.980 that madness
00:57:14.920 as well.
00:57:16.000 More with her
00:57:16.600 in 60 seconds.

00:57:25.080 great thing is, I
00:57:26.460 could say,
00:57:27.020 surprise, surprise,
00:57:28.840 inflation continues
00:57:29.980 to be a problem,
00:57:30.960 but it's not a

00:57:42.520 The cost of
00:57:43.120 everything is
00:57:43.840 going up.
00:57:44.420 You have to
00:57:44.700 be pragmatic,
00:57:45.660 you need to
00:57:45.980 be proactive,
00:57:46.800 and you need

00:58:40.180 So, Rebecca, I want
00:58:45.440 to spend just a
00:58:46.080 couple of minutes
00:58:46.780 on his first
00:58:48.400 speech that he
00:58:50.280 gave when he was
00:58:51.340 going into Ukraine
00:58:52.280 and he talked, I
00:58:53.860 mean, he sounded
00:58:54.420 like Alexander
00:58:55.240 Dugan.
00:58:55.920 For people who
00:58:56.840 don't understand
00:58:57.720 Alexander Dugan
00:58:58.820 and his insane
00:59:01.440 fourth political
00:59:02.500 theory, could you
00:59:03.960 explain his
00:59:05.280 influence and what
00:59:06.860 it is he's trying
00:59:08.140 to accomplish and
00:59:09.240 how likely it is
00:59:10.820 that he's really
00:59:13.120 influencing things
00:59:14.440 in Russia?
00:59:17.060 Alexander Dugan
00:59:19.080 used to be the
00:59:20.720 brain trust of
00:59:22.820 Putin.
00:59:23.960 Alexander Dugan's
00:59:25.240 writings, the
00:59:26.220 whole geopolitical
00:59:27.460 for geopolitical
00:59:28.420 theory, as you
00:59:29.440 explained, was
00:59:30.660 taught at
00:59:32.100 Russia's general
00:59:34.180 staff.
00:59:35.000 They have a
00:59:35.780 center that is
00:59:36.640 called the
00:59:37.280 Center for
00:59:38.540 Strategic Military
00:59:39.360 Research that
00:59:40.960 does threat
00:59:42.240 forecasting and
00:59:43.660 they have
00:59:44.160 predicted by
00:59:45.640 assessing our
00:59:46.680 defense posture
00:59:47.480 and our war
00:59:48.980 fighting style
00:59:49.900 and the past
00:59:51.340 20 years of our
00:59:52.400 military campaigns
00:59:53.520 and what we've
00:59:54.240 done in Iraq,
00:59:55.040 Afghanistan, and
00:59:56.260 Libya, and
00:59:57.860 Syria, and they
00:59:58.860 have decided that
01:00:00.200 Putin is going to
01:00:01.400 be next, that we
01:00:02.640 want to conduct a
01:00:03.760 regime change, and
01:00:04.960 therefore, they are
01:00:06.740 going to take a
01:00:07.600 preemptive strike,
01:00:09.020 so to speak, because
01:00:09.940 Putin stated once,
01:00:11.480 if a fight is
01:00:12.480 unavoidable, and
01:00:13.480 he's a judo
01:00:14.140 practitioner, right,
01:00:15.160 in addition to
01:00:15.980 being the former
01:00:16.720 KGB officer, if a
01:00:19.100 fight is unavoidable,
01:00:21.300 you must strike
01:00:22.020 first.
01:00:22.680 And this is why he
01:00:25.000 acted to take over
01:00:26.960 Ukraine now, because
01:00:28.200 he perceives that
01:00:29.380 it's his best chance,
01:00:30.780 his window of
01:00:31.460 opportunity, while we
01:00:32.860 have what they
01:00:34.200 believe a weak U.S.
01:00:35.900 president.
01:00:37.020 Now, so, and
01:00:38.000 this is what, you
01:00:38.880 know, Dugan won, it's
01:00:40.020 the Eurasianism, that
01:00:41.580 Trump, you know,
01:00:42.880 Atlanticism, and
01:00:44.480 whether it will
01:00:45.160 happen actually or
01:00:46.140 not, Glenn, it
01:00:47.440 depends, it depends
01:00:48.720 on our reaction to
01:00:50.940 what's happening in
01:00:51.920 Ukraine.
01:00:52.720 If he's allowed to
01:00:53.620 swallow Ukraine,
01:00:54.880 what's next, right?
01:00:56.020 Moldova, Belarus,
01:00:57.140 Belarus is already
01:00:57.920 part of the union,
01:00:59.380 are the Baltics next?
01:01:00.880 That's what everybody
01:01:01.800 is worried about.
01:01:03.280 And if we don't
01:01:04.620 demonstrate, you
01:01:06.120 know, a viable
01:01:07.460 strategy, which so
01:01:08.960 far we haven't,
01:01:10.000 right, we don't have
01:01:10.920 an answer to his
01:01:11.680 asymmetric strategy,
01:01:12.800 because President
01:01:14.080 Biden somehow thinks
01:01:15.740 that sanctions is
01:01:17.100 going to be a magic
01:01:17.820 bullet, but sanctions
01:01:19.240 is a completely, it's
01:01:20.820 an economic concern,
01:01:22.500 Putin's security
01:01:23.220 concern, are
01:01:24.020 completely different,
01:01:25.000 so that is not going
01:01:26.360 to change their
01:01:26.920 behavior, and that's
01:01:27.960 what Putin is banking
01:01:28.780 on, that we don't
01:01:30.060 have an answer to his
01:01:31.520 playbook, and that's
01:01:32.440 what I described in
01:01:33.320 my book.
01:01:33.860 Okay, so when you're
01:01:36.660 looking at the
01:01:38.060 scenario, I gotta
01:01:39.400 believe that when we
01:01:41.640 pulled out of
01:01:42.260 Afghanistan, that was a
01:01:44.240 green light for Putin.
01:01:47.880 It was.
01:01:49.500 The Russians, as I
01:01:51.060 said, watched very,
01:01:52.260 very closely how we
01:01:54.560 fight, where we fight,
01:01:56.620 whether we're able to
01:01:57.700 achieve victory, okay?
01:01:59.220 And we have
01:02:00.400 withdrawn from
01:02:01.620 Afghanistan after 20
01:02:03.280 years and $2.2 trillion
01:02:05.400 spent of U.S.
01:02:07.660 taxpayers' money, 6,000
01:02:10.080 American lives only
01:02:11.680 sacrificed, right?
01:02:13.140 Given the fact that we
01:02:14.280 have a superior war-fighting
01:02:16.640 force in military history,
01:02:18.300 our men and women in
01:02:19.460 uniform are exceptional.
01:02:22.240 We have outstanding
01:02:23.800 weaponry, the best in the
01:02:25.180 world, but technology and
01:02:27.220 weaponry do not win
01:02:28.400 wars.
01:02:28.980 The Russians know
01:02:29.780 that.
01:02:30.560 And given the shameful
01:02:32.540 withdrawal by President
01:02:34.820 Biden, they decided that
01:02:37.140 we are just not able to
01:02:39.500 handle these wars and
01:02:40.640 close these wars and don't
01:02:42.780 have the stamina to stand
01:02:44.900 up to Putin, and that's
01:02:46.380 when he moved in.
01:02:47.800 That was the green light to
01:02:49.140 him, as you said.
01:02:50.180 And on top of that, Joe
01:02:51.660 Biden green-lighted, if you
01:02:53.040 remember, he told Putin,
01:02:55.440 well, if it's a small
01:02:56.680 incursion, you know, maybe
01:02:58.220 you won't be punished.
01:02:59.780 So that was the final
01:03:01.320 green light and the
01:03:02.560 trigger that Putin said,
01:03:03.940 okay, I'm going to move
01:03:05.180 in.
01:03:05.540 This is my opportunity
01:03:06.680 before a stronger
01:03:08.300 president, someone like
01:03:09.420 Trump, you know, comes to
01:03:11.400 power in the United States.
01:03:13.980 That's the best chance, and
01:03:15.480 he moved in.
01:03:16.600 All right.
01:03:17.460 Why is it, and I'm going
01:03:18.840 to have to take a break

01:05:02.800 Rebecca Koffler, the author
01:05:15.020 of Putin's Playbook.
01:05:16.580 She is a former U.S.
01:05:19.000 intelligence officer.
01:05:21.080 She was with the CIA after
01:05:23.080 9-11.
01:05:24.500 She decided that she wanted
01:05:26.140 to help protect our country.
01:05:27.700 She knows Russia inside and
01:05:29.480 out.
01:05:29.640 She's a former Soviet citizen
01:05:31.480 that came over to the
01:05:33.120 United States and now is an
01:05:35.340 American citizen.
01:05:36.360 Rebecca, welcome.
01:05:38.340 Thank you, Glenn.
01:05:39.260 Pleasure to be here with you
01:05:40.380 and the audience.
01:05:41.180 Oh, great.
01:05:41.560 So before the break, I asked
01:05:43.460 you, how did we get Putin
01:05:45.640 so wrong?
01:05:46.560 I mean, I've always said,
01:05:48.600 if you just look at the guy,
01:05:51.220 one arm doesn't swing when
01:05:53.700 he walks.
01:05:54.260 And that's the arm that his
01:05:56.540 gun used to be at.
01:05:58.900 He is still a KGB guy.
01:06:00.920 He's still a guy.
01:06:02.600 He's a thug.
01:06:03.960 How did we miss this?
01:06:06.820 Absolutely, Glenn.
01:06:08.680 So we've missed 20 years
01:06:11.180 worth of indications and
01:06:13.180 warnings, what we call an
01:06:14.260 intelligence community,
01:06:15.560 I and W of who Putin was
01:06:17.860 and what he was planning to
01:06:19.040 do.
01:06:19.560 He never made it a secret.
01:06:21.060 Every speech, every strategic
01:06:23.000 planning document, every press
01:06:24.980 conference, he articulated to
01:06:27.020 us that he was planning to
01:06:29.320 reconstitute an alliance
01:06:31.140 similar to USSR, and he viewed
01:06:33.620 the U.S. and NATO as a roadblock
01:06:35.500 in his plan, and he planned to
01:06:37.680 destabilize it.
01:06:39.240 And yet we missed it.
01:06:40.720 Why?
01:06:41.140 It's because somehow there's an
01:06:43.020 assumption in the intelligence
01:06:44.160 community and in the broader
01:06:46.080 Washington establishment security
01:06:47.720 apparatus that Putin thinks like
01:06:50.080 an American, that the Russians
01:06:51.760 think and believe just like Americans,
01:06:55.060 and nothing can be further from the
01:06:56.900 truth.
01:06:57.420 Putin is not an American.
01:06:58.960 He thinks like a Soviet KGB
01:07:00.820 officer and a Judah practitioner.
01:07:03.000 The Russians elected Putin four
01:07:05.340 times, Glenn, right?
01:07:06.740 And guess who every single time was
01:07:09.080 that a runner-up?
01:07:10.360 It was a communist.
01:07:11.860 It was somebody who would have been
01:07:13.600 even worse.
01:07:14.980 And so Putin has already done several
01:07:17.420 things that are perceived by the
01:07:19.220 Western analysts as crazy.
01:07:21.260 And he's not crazy.
01:07:23.320 He invaded Georgia.
01:07:24.740 He invaded Crimea.
01:07:26.540 He authorized the shooting down of
01:07:29.680 MH-17.
01:07:31.100 And we keep thinking that, oh, he's
01:07:33.740 not going to use tactical nuke because
01:07:35.220 it's crazy.
01:07:36.220 But maybe what's crazy to us is not
01:07:38.760 crazy to him.
01:07:39.640 His rationale is not American.
01:07:41.600 It's not Western.
01:07:42.700 It's a Soviet KGB killer style, you
01:07:46.300 know, type of guy, a thug, like you
01:07:49.980 said, an assassin.
01:07:51.080 He has authorized assassinations,
01:07:53.440 poisonings.
01:07:54.860 All these things make sense to him.
01:07:57.620 And they actually make sense to a
01:07:59.840 segment of the Russian population,
01:08:01.640 which is pretty large, who support a
01:08:03.780 strong leader bordering on brutal,
01:08:06.340 just like Stalin.
01:08:07.600 Stalin's popularity is rising now.
01:08:09.460 So we have we have a situation where
01:08:12.120 Putin says he's going to purify Russia
01:08:16.480 of the scum and traitors.
01:08:20.060 But there's a lot of people, at least it
01:08:22.420 appears to be a lot of people that are
01:08:24.240 against this war in Ukraine.
01:08:27.680 Will this silence them and put everybody
01:08:30.720 back to kind of a Soviet kind of footing?
01:08:33.560 That's what I'm afraid of, Glenn.
01:08:37.340 He's basically calling for people to start
01:08:41.520 ratting out, if you will, the fifth column,
01:08:45.040 the traitors, as he called them.
01:08:47.540 And Putin once stated that treason is the
01:08:51.820 most heinous of crimes.
01:08:53.460 And this is why he authorized assassinations
01:08:56.240 and poisonings of former JRU officer
01:08:59.280 Skripal and former FBI officer Alexander
01:09:02.600 Litvinenko.
01:09:03.880 So right now he's calling for a
01:09:06.740 Stalin-esque era red terror when
01:09:10.260 neighbors and spy on neighbors and turn
01:09:13.520 them into the Soviet authorities and
01:09:16.620 call them, you know, traitors.
01:09:18.640 So what he wants to do is he wants the
01:09:21.940 Russian people to actually give out the
01:09:26.660 Russian, other Russian people.
01:09:28.680 And with the idea that it will scare
01:09:31.600 everyone and people will stop protesting.
01:09:35.000 Most of the Russian people are afraid.
01:09:38.160 And I interviewed a Russian source in
01:09:40.220 Moscow, and she said that 90% of people
01:09:45.040 support Putin, 10% and nobody actually
01:09:48.480 supports the war, right?
01:09:49.540 Because it's a slav on slav.
01:09:51.020 It's atrocious.
01:09:52.000 But only 10% do not support Putin.
01:09:56.860 And everyone is scared because the
01:10:00.260 consequences can be really, really harsh.
01:10:03.180 You can be expelled from a university, you
01:10:06.020 can lose your job, and you can get in
01:10:08.340 jail up to 15 people, 15 years, rather.
01:10:12.320 And so that is what is scaring these people.
01:10:16.060 And we've seen that before in Russian
01:10:18.020 history, regretfully.
01:10:19.580 All right.
01:10:20.220 You, in your book, Putin's playbook, you
01:10:23.260 talk about the infiltration of Russia, of
01:10:27.600 the United States by Russia.
01:10:29.060 It's already here.
01:10:30.820 I know that I know that Dugan has
01:10:33.520 operatives that are, you know, reaching
01:10:37.680 out to organizations all over the West and
01:10:40.900 in Europe, trying to get them on board by
01:10:43.960 appealing to their traditional values.
01:10:47.740 How is this happening with Putin and
01:10:51.020 Russia?
01:10:51.740 And where do you see this infiltration
01:10:53.960 here in America?
01:10:56.180 Here's how it happens.
01:10:57.580 There are two types of infiltration.
01:10:59.620 There's an infiltration with actual spy, like
01:11:02.900 sleeper agent types of operatives, similar to
01:11:06.900 the 10 who were expelled by President
01:11:10.660 Obama, which was, by the way, was foolish.
01:11:13.160 We should have kept these people here,
01:11:16.320 debriefed him, and flipped them over to
01:11:18.660 work for us, right?
01:11:20.220 Back in 2010, Putin actually authorized
01:11:24.540 the infiltration of these 10 probably the
01:11:29.020 minute that he came to power, because they
01:11:33.080 were working here for 10 years, trying to
01:11:35.840 get close to U.S.
01:11:38.180 top echelons of U.S.
01:11:39.560 government, and they were getting very
01:11:41.060 close to Hillary Clinton, right?
01:11:43.680 So the second type of infiltration is
01:11:46.280 really the infiltration of the American
01:11:48.620 Mayans.
01:11:49.720 The Russians, for decades, wanted to
01:11:53.060 transform the United States from a free
01:11:55.480 capitalist society into a socialist
01:11:58.620 society, similar to what the Soviet Union
01:12:01.640 was like.
01:12:02.300 And we were warned about it by a defector,
01:12:05.840 Yuri Bysmenov, who said that there was a
01:12:08.140 four-step program of such transformation.
01:12:11.020 And we see the results of it today, right?
01:12:13.940 Today, you know, Bernie Sanders, AOC, and
01:12:17.620 folks like that, the leftists, they talk
01:12:20.500 about socialism as though it's a viable
01:12:22.840 system, and it's been normalized, this
01:12:25.380 narrative, which is completely not only
01:12:28.140 absurd, but scary.
01:12:29.560 Glenn, I lived under socialism.
01:12:32.300 It's a really, really vile and atrocious
01:12:35.980 system.
01:12:36.960 It's not all about the free stuff.
01:12:38.960 It's about government control.
01:12:40.720 And we cannot allow this in this country.
01:12:43.340 But this is the type of infiltration.
01:12:45.520 So the Russians not only target with their
01:12:47.920 information warfare, they don't only target
01:12:50.080 our networks, but they're targeting
01:12:52.000 Americans' minds with this.
01:12:54.860 So what is your response when you hear
01:12:58.780 people like Hillary Clinton and others say
01:13:01.060 that Tucker Carlson is an operative or
01:13:09.640 Tulsi Gabbard, yeah, I can never remember
01:13:15.580 her first name.
01:13:16.260 Tulsi Gabbard, that they're Russian operatives.
01:13:18.700 So Hillary Clinton is a Soviet-style KGB
01:13:23.640 operative type, okay?
01:13:26.220 Remember, during her, you know, when she was a
01:13:29.420 State Department chief, instead of actually
01:13:33.460 paying attention to the Russian threat and
01:13:37.120 developing a counter strategy, Hillary Clinton
01:13:40.220 was busy trying to cozy up to Putin and to the
01:13:44.640 Russians.
01:13:44.960 They wanted to reset Obama and Hillary, even
01:13:49.360 though she had every possible indication and
01:13:52.320 warning what Putin was up to.
01:13:54.140 And she trotted out that mistranslated button
01:13:57.180 that was a huge diplomatic, you know, diplomatic
01:14:00.700 faux pas that Lavrov, the Russian foreign
01:14:03.960 minister, laughed at.
01:14:05.780 And so she was digging dirt.
01:14:07.780 She authorized, you know, a whole slew of
01:14:10.680 intelligence officials and also, you know, the
01:14:14.140 private industry to dig dirt on Trump to unseat a
01:14:18.620 democratically elected president of the United
01:14:21.220 States.
01:14:22.160 So Hillary Clinton is dangerous, actually.
01:14:25.040 And the types like her, the corrupt officials like
01:14:28.700 John Brennan, former CIA director under Obama, like
01:14:32.300 James Clapper, DNI, former director of national
01:14:36.240 intelligence, and James Comey, the former FBI director,
01:14:39.960 because they failed to do their job to assess Putin
01:14:44.500 properly and protect us from this threat to us and our
01:14:48.100 allies.
01:14:48.640 I want to make it really clear.
01:14:53.020 She did not just say that Hillary Clinton is a Russian
01:14:56.580 spy.
01:14:57.180 She said she is the type of politician that the KGB would
01:15:03.940 love and that that, you know, doesn't watch our back.
01:15:07.340 Do I have that right?
01:15:09.300 You have that exactly right.
01:15:10.820 I don't mean to say that she's on the payroll of the
01:15:14.280 Russians, but she learned all the long, wrong lessons from
01:15:18.340 the Soviet playbook.
01:15:19.980 And she and her operatives have applied them, you know,
01:15:24.460 hitting the U.S.
01:15:25.660 really with the double whammy.
01:15:27.120 What happened in 2016 was the Russians did not want to
01:15:31.740 elect Trump.
01:15:32.600 They wanted to foment discord and disorder and possibly
01:15:35.840 social unrest.
01:15:37.160 They feared Trump and they put out, they being the Obama
01:15:41.880 spy chief, put out a fraudulent intelligence community
01:15:46.580 assessment of January 6th, 2017, where they lied to the
01:15:51.320 American people about the reasons for Russia's interference
01:15:54.720 in the election.
01:15:56.560 Rebecca, I'm out of time, but I would like to have you back
01:15:58.940 because I'd like to talk to you about Ukraine because Hillary
01:16:01.760 Clinton and George Soros and all those people were huge in
01:16:06.120 Ukraine doing all kinds of dirty stuff.
01:16:09.580 And then we had a TV star to be elected president, much to our
01:16:16.320 State Department chagrin.
01:16:18.160 And I know you're writing a new book now on Zelensky.
01:16:21.580 And I'd like to have you back on again and talk a little bit about
01:16:24.360 the other side.
01:16:25.080 Would you come back?
01:16:25.720 Of course, I would love to.
01:16:28.220 Thank you so much.
01:16:29.000 Rebecca Koffler.
01:16:30.380 The name of the book is Putin's playbook.
01:16:33.400 You want to understand his plan to destroy America and why he wants
01:16:39.540 to destroy America.
01:16:40.580 Read Putin's playbook.
01:16:42.240 By the way, one note, I'm getting, believe it or not, I hate addressing
01:16:47.120 these things.
01:16:47.700 They're so stupid.
01:16:48.980 I'm getting heat because I have the Ukrainian flag on my Twitter feed.
01:16:53.960 Uh-huh.
01:16:55.120 I do.
01:16:55.920 I support the people of Ukraine.
01:16:59.200 That doesn't mean I want war where we're involved.
01:17:04.820 I believe that we can help people in Ukraine as individuals.
01:17:10.460 And we'll give you some examples of that coming up in just a second.
01:17:14.400 But just because I'm telling you, read Putin's playbook.
01:17:18.860 He really is trying to destroy America.
01:17:21.380 That doesn't mean I want warplanes with a U.S. flag on the back anywhere
01:17:28.060 close to Ukraine.
01:17:30.680 Back in just a minute.
01:17:32.940 If you want a vehicle, getting car shield really should be a no-brainer.
01:17:37.580 Right now, fixing your cars is going to be trouble.
01:17:41.740 You got a couple of cars, especially if they're out of warranty.
01:17:45.800 Holy cow.
01:17:46.840 You're not going to buy a new one.
01:17:48.480 I mean, look at the price of a used car, let alone a new one, if you can get it.
01:17:55.220 So what are you going to do?
01:17:56.400 You're going to pony up and pay whatever it is.
01:17:58.560 But if you're missing some sort of a chip that makes your car go, and that chip is out,
01:18:09.120 what are you going to do then?
01:18:11.600 This is like medical insurance.
01:18:13.380 You have this for catastrophic failure.

01:18:48.820 I can't thank you enough for your support of Mercury One.
01:19:09.560 A couple of things.
01:19:10.940 This weekend, David and Tim Barton and I taught class for a couple of nights on Friday and
01:19:17.640 Saturday for families that came from all over the country.
01:19:21.360 And it was remarkable.
01:19:23.860 These people were just great.
01:19:25.920 They get it.
01:19:26.500 And now their job is to go in and spread the word.
01:19:30.060 We're going to have another family history event.
01:19:32.940 We'll tell you about it as we get closer to it, hopefully a little more notice than just
01:19:38.560 happened last time.
01:19:39.440 But also thank you for your support for Mercury One and all of the things that we're doing
01:19:44.180 all around the world.
01:19:45.580 We have been working with our partners on the ground in Ukraine and the surrounding countries.
01:19:53.180 We have already given $105,000 to the Freedom Shield Foundation.
01:20:00.140 They're working to get orphans out of Ukraine to safety.
01:20:03.760 They've already rescued many and taken them to safe countries.
01:20:07.260 Save Our Allies is another great one we worked with in Afghanistan.
01:20:11.660 This is going to enable SOA to purchase six mobile medical evacuation vehicles and ambulances
01:20:19.080 to support the ability to medevac and case vac from Ukraine.
01:20:25.660 United Hadzala, we gave them almost $100,000.
01:20:29.980 They're providing medical help and humanitarian aid as well for the Ukrainians fleeing the country
01:20:34.700 and charter flights for the Jewish people fleeing the Ukraine as well.
01:20:39.100 Operation Blessing and Samaritan's Purse, we are also helping fund them as well.
01:20:45.180 This is one of the worst humanitarian situations our partners have ever seen.
01:20:51.640 We really, oh, by the way, Peace and Good, we also gave some money to Peace and Good.
01:20:56.940 They're helping with rescuing orphans.
01:20:58.980 And more on the way, we really would love for your help.
01:21:04.540 We don't take, you know, we don't take money for what we do.
01:21:09.100 We just want to get the money to the right partners, the people who are having the biggest impact.
01:21:15.180 And some of these partners are the ones that were with us in Afghanistan.
01:21:18.840 We are on the ground now, and we would love your support.

01:22:19.700 Yes.
01:22:20.060 I keep it at a really toasty 62 degrees.
01:22:24.760 Stu would like it at a toasty, I don't know, 800 like an old man.
01:22:29.580 But even that we were just talking about, we compromised at 65, and I still sweat up a storm.
01:22:36.760 Now, I'm not Jeffy.
01:22:37.880 I mean, nobody is Jeffy.
01:22:39.040 No, that's impossible.
01:22:40.160 That's really bad.

01:23:49.460 Stand up straight and hold the line.
01:23:52.400 It's a new day.
01:23:56.320 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:24:06.400 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:24:12.240 In 1917, the war, World War I was raging.
01:24:19.360 And the Russian Revolution had begun eight months prior.
01:24:25.120 And there were, in a small village, three young children that say they were visited by the Virgin Mary.
01:24:33.700 It is in a small village called Fatima.
01:24:37.780 At that time, she gave, I don't know, it was three or five secrets, something like that.
01:24:41.900 But they've been revealed all except for one, the final secret.
01:24:46.700 It is only for the Pope to see.
01:24:50.040 It is a call to Russia to be dedicated to God and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
01:25:01.380 Popes have said they weren't gonna do this for one reason or another all along.
01:25:09.380 Pope John Paul kinda did it after the wall fell.
01:25:13.440 But most Catholics will say that wasn't what the, what the Virgin Mary was asking.
01:25:20.340 The fifth secret involves something really, really, truly horrible.
01:25:24.480 And it involves Russia and Ukraine.
01:25:28.960 This Pope has decided to fulfill the request from 1917, this Friday.
01:25:39.700 I'll explain it to you in 60 seconds.
01:25:42.200 All right.
01:25:48.960 True love of country, those who serve it.
01:25:52.520 That's a deep commitment.
01:25:54.500 It means thoughts and prayers, which are both effective.
01:25:58.960 Those have real power, but it also means reaching out with a helping hand when those who serve
01:26:04.920 can't anymore.
01:26:06.660 Since 9-11, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been supporting America's heroes and their
01:26:12.000 families.
01:26:12.500 And when a first responder or a military service member doesn't come home and young children
01:26:17.540 are left behind, Tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift the financial burden
01:26:23.320 and bring their family to safety.
01:26:25.780 For catastrophically injured vets, first responders, Tunnel to Towers builds mortgage-free smart
01:26:32.640 homes, enabling severely injured heroes to live more independent lives.
01:26:37.440 And now, Operation Homebase, Tunnel to Towers is gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans.
01:26:43.360 In a world that is so filled with darkness, it's nice to see the light once in a while.
01:26:50.560 And the light, this time, is brought by Tunnel to Towers.
01:26:56.740 TunnelToTowers.org.
01:26:58.360 I want you to go to T2, the number two, T.org.
01:27:02.060 If you can donate 11 bucks a month, just have it automatically taken out, it would help an
01:27:07.160 awful lot, T2T.org.
01:27:09.760 That's T2T.org.
01:27:13.280 All right.
01:27:13.920 So if you're Catholic, you might have heard of Fatima.
01:27:18.580 It's a story that doesn't get a lot of attention outside of Catholicism.
01:27:23.300 And it is, I remember I went to a Catholic school when I was a kid and we used to watch
01:27:28.560 the movie, was it Bernadette or was it Fatima?
01:27:31.980 I can't remember.
01:27:32.720 We used to watch a movie about one of these miracles every year.
01:27:35.820 I've always been fascinated by them, especially Fatima, because there is one secret that the
01:27:44.740 kids knew about, but then gave to the Pope and it was for the Pope's eyes only.
01:27:52.020 And it was a call.
01:27:54.040 We don't know what it says on the result of not doing it.
01:27:58.140 We just know that it was to call Russia to God.
01:28:01.380 And if not, bad things would happen.
01:28:06.820 We don't know what bad things.
01:28:09.300 It is literally only read by the Pope and one other person through history.
01:28:14.220 The Pope becomes the Pope.
01:28:15.940 He reads this particular prophecy and then it is sealed up and he decides what he's going
01:28:24.260 to do, yes or no.
01:28:25.780 Pope John Paul did it, but there are scholars, theologians in the Catholic Church that say
01:28:32.480 he didn't do it the way he was instructed to do it.
01:28:35.620 It requires all of the bishops to come together, et cetera, et cetera, and dedicate a day of prayer
01:28:41.700 and call from St. Peter's seat, Russia, to come to God.
01:28:50.320 That's my rough non-Catholic understanding of it.
01:28:55.160 If you're Catholic, you might want to talk to your priest about it and get involved and
01:29:00.320 make sure all the bishops and archbishops are involved in this on Friday.
01:29:04.580 This is a really odd request coming in 1917 from children who had barely even heard of
01:29:14.140 Russia.
01:29:14.820 The Russian Revolution at the time had just started.
01:29:18.900 It was about eight months old.
01:29:20.260 World War I was raging.
01:29:22.420 But Mary, the mother Mary, said to the children not to worry.
01:29:27.300 It will end soon.
01:29:28.640 She told the children, if my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted and there will be peace.
01:29:35.400 If not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions against
01:29:42.580 the church.
01:29:43.860 Good, the good will be martyred.
01:29:46.780 The Holy Father will have much to suffer.
01:29:48.860 Various nations will be annihilated.
01:29:51.840 By this time, the kids were gaining quite a following.
01:29:55.700 It was October 13th, 1917, and Mary appeared for the last time and gave the final part of
01:30:02.140 her message.
01:30:03.300 She said there would be a miracle visible to all of the people who came to the village.
01:30:09.840 70,000 people came pouring out in the rain and they were standing in the mud.
01:30:16.040 Many of them were skeptical journalists and religious figures, et cetera, et cetera.
01:30:20.320 As Mary spoke to the children, she said, it is said that the sun rolled out of the sky and
01:30:27.600 across the landscape, throwing off a rainbow of colors.
01:30:31.340 People fell to their knees.
01:30:33.220 Their clothing dried, looked at it, just come back from the cleaners.
01:30:36.660 They all smelled flowers.
01:30:38.740 This I'm just, you can doubt it if you want, whatever.
01:30:41.500 I'm just telling you what they reported at the time.
01:30:43.960 And when I say they, I mean many of the skeptical reporters as well.
01:30:49.460 The church has deemed this a miracle and a holy site.
01:30:53.160 There's lots of appearances that they don't, you know, I saw him in a loaf of bread.
01:30:57.880 They don't necessarily do that.
01:31:00.980 Over the years, different popes have claimed to perform the consecration, but it didn't happen.
01:31:09.460 Uh, it didn't happen the way it was supposed to, that is changing on Friday, on March 25th,
01:31:18.060 62 years after Pope John the 23rd was told specifically to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
01:31:27.960 This Pope is going to finally do it.
01:31:30.560 Now it's Pope Francis.
01:31:31.940 And I, I, I don't, I don't know.
01:31:35.920 I don't know.
01:31:36.860 I don't know enough about this to know if it's being done right or not.
01:31:40.420 All of the bishops are asked to do the same thing, uh, on Friday.
01:31:47.280 I think any attempt to beg for God's, um, interceding here on mankind's behalf is welcome.
01:31:58.220 Um, I'm telling you this, this is not my faith, but I support any faith that is working towards
01:32:06.640 humbling man and getting them to ask for repentance and conversion to the Lord for anyone.
01:32:16.260 This could be a very powerful, um, event if Catholics and perhaps others just join in prayer.
01:32:23.480 But if Catholics all around the world really, truly pray hard on a Friday, I do believe prayers are answered much more,
01:32:34.860 uh, to this story, um, including what happens if it's, if it, if, if, if, if this isn't, uh, done properly,
01:32:45.220 I guess, um, it just strikes me as profound that something from 1917 that people have been calling
01:32:58.960 for, for a hundred years is dusted off at this moment with Pope Francis, uh, because apparently
01:33:08.680 the really bad thing happens or begins in Kyiv with Russia.
01:33:17.460 Not good.
01:33:19.080 Not good.
01:33:19.780 There's so many things that, that fill up that list right now.
01:33:23.060 Yeah.
01:33:23.800 Uh, it's hard to keep track of them.
01:33:25.280 I liked your, I, I, I did not know you were, uh, you had, you had the, uh, ability to go
01:33:30.180 that deep into Catholicism.
01:33:31.420 So they will not accept any miracles in bread.
01:33:33.480 Is that true?
01:33:34.220 They would know that's not true.
01:33:35.260 I can't make that bread.
01:33:36.720 I'm sorry.
01:33:37.380 I can't, I can't, I don't want to mislead you.
01:33:39.800 Okay.
01:33:40.180 Yeah.
01:33:40.540 I'm practically a Catholic theologian.
01:33:43.240 Not.
01:33:43.560 Uh, so I apologize to all Catholics here for butchering this story, but so do you, what
01:33:49.400 do we, what do you think it means?
01:33:52.900 Uh, I don't know.
01:33:54.540 I don't know.
01:33:56.080 I mean, I, again, I apologize to Catholics.
01:33:59.320 I so dislike, uh, Pope Francis.
01:34:02.500 I just don't trust him because he's also, there is a, there is another, um, Catholic and
01:34:09.020 I, it may be from Fatima.
01:34:11.000 I'm not sure.
01:34:11.780 I know a lot of people that are very, very much into what's happening right now have
01:34:16.180 been waiting for this moment, literally their whole lives.
01:34:19.640 Um, and, uh, there's another prophecy that they have been hoping wouldn't be fulfilled.
01:34:26.720 And that is the Pope going over and meeting in Moscow, uh, with the leader of Russia and
01:34:35.180 also, I think the leader of the Orthodox church.
01:34:37.660 And that is, uh, supposedly a very bad sign.
01:34:43.060 Uh, and I know this guy, uh, Pope Francis has been planning on that.
01:34:48.780 Nothing, nothing is, nothing is set.
01:34:52.380 Uh, but there have been, uh, there's movement in the papal offices on that.
01:34:57.700 And that, that, that, that would not be good according, according to the Catholic prophecy.
01:35:02.420 So what do you, where do you, I think, I think that makes him the last Pope, something like
01:35:07.260 that.
01:35:07.640 Where do you, uh, what's your view on what's actually happening right now when it comes to
01:35:11.380 Russia and Ukraine?
01:35:12.300 Where do, where do, where does this stand?
01:35:13.760 Uh, there's a report from, I think it was the wall street journal this weekend that they
01:35:19.520 now believe that Putin was actually, uh, was actually planning on taking the country quickly
01:35:27.180 is legitimately up, you know, like realizing that this is not going to happen this quickly
01:35:31.460 and is now looking for ways to pivot back to taking just the territories, uh, that he initially
01:35:38.000 indicated interest in, uh, Donbass and Junetsk or whatever, and then keeping Crimea and getting
01:35:44.740 the land bridge to Crimea and those things that were rumored to be his goals initially.
01:35:50.320 I'm not sure.
01:35:51.860 Maybe.
01:35:52.560 I'm not sure that Joe Biden is the guy to conduct those peace talks.
01:35:57.640 No, he can't, he can't do any talk.
01:36:00.180 No.
01:36:00.340 Um, but that, that would be good if everyone would accept that.
01:36:04.640 I would, I mean, at least right now.
01:36:06.820 Yeah.
01:36:07.260 Compared to what compared to taking it all and, and really going in and fighting his
01:36:12.800 use of, um, the hyper weapons disturbs me a great deal.
01:36:17.820 And that could be an escalate to deescalate.
01:36:22.120 That's his kind of ammo is he ratchets things up.
01:36:26.880 And that's from a real Russian nuclear document.
01:36:29.220 Like their strategy is to, you know, in theory, if they were losing or being defeated, uh,
01:36:34.680 slowly in a conventional war that they didn't think they could win with conventional forces
01:36:38.800 easily, they would potentially drop a tactical nuclear, uh, bomb or, or some device that would
01:36:46.940 scare the other side so much.
01:36:48.600 They wouldn't have to fight that conventional war.
01:36:50.180 So the last big war that they had was Afghanistan, I think.
01:36:53.740 Well, they had Chechnya and they, they leveled that.
01:36:56.900 They leveled it.
01:36:58.060 The video from Grozny.
01:37:00.400 Yeah.
01:37:00.860 Horrible.
01:37:01.060 It is unbelievable.
01:37:02.440 Yeah.
01:37:02.640 I mean, that's, it's really one of the things, you know, it's, there's so many of those types
01:37:07.160 of things that go on in the world and you hear reports about them.
01:37:09.700 And I remember talking about it at the time, but like, you forget how brutal that was.
01:37:13.700 Yeah.
01:37:14.180 So, um, they lost in Afghanistan.
01:37:16.260 They just did horrible things, horrible things in Grozny.
01:37:21.520 Um, and now they're mired in this, this, this could be another, I mean, remember how humiliating
01:37:26.700 the loss was in Afghanistan.
01:37:29.860 If, if they, uh, if he feels like I can't take this loss, I think he is going to, it'll
01:37:36.300 go much, much worse.
01:37:37.520 And, and I just, unfortunately think there's so many people that want war right now.
01:37:42.820 Uh, and he might be one of them.
01:37:45.260 I don't know the, the president of Ukraine.
01:37:49.460 This is good.
01:37:50.420 This is a real test for him because if the president of Ukraine is, is winning,
01:37:56.700 and feels he's winning, holding him, he's going to want, he'll be less likely to join
01:38:04.500 in on peace talks because he'll think that maybe we can drive them entirely out and defeat
01:38:09.560 them.
01:38:10.400 So it's going to take a big brother to step up and go, Hey, Hey, both of you guys, what
01:38:17.940 do you think?
01:38:18.460 What do you think we call this off?
01:38:19.820 Is there a compromise here?
01:38:21.860 Um, and that used to be the United States, but I don't think that's the United States to
01:38:25.380 do that anymore.
01:38:27.100 The, this has got to be an unbelievable thing for Russia to go through.
01:38:30.940 If you go through, go back to, um, right now they're saying 14,000 dead on the Russian
01:38:37.240 side.
01:38:38.040 Then that's according to the Ukrainians.
01:38:39.740 Now, of course you'd expect that number to probably be high.
01:38:42.280 The U S is reporting.
01:38:43.680 They think it's 7,000.
01:38:45.120 Uh, the New York times says that's a conservative estimate, 7,000, 7,000 to give you a sense of
01:38:51.480 that is all of the U S casualties as far as deaths go.
01:38:56.200 So in Iraq and Afghanistan combined.
01:38:59.260 Oh my gosh.
01:39:00.540 Over how many years, 20 years, they have lost that many people in four weeks.
01:39:08.540 That's a bloodbath.
01:39:09.480 It's a lot of mothers, you know, finding out that their kid isn't coming home at some point
01:39:14.200 that does wind up changing things significantly in a country, even when it is a dictatorship.
01:39:19.820 I mean, I, you know, even with the power that Putin has enough moms get those calls.
01:39:24.480 That's why he is now, he's on the same social system now that, that China is on pretty much
01:39:30.760 really, um, social credit system.
01:39:32.820 Yeah.
01:39:33.220 You, he is cracking down like crazy.
01:39:36.400 All he needs to do is introduce a digital currency, um, or, uh, the, the constant monitoring,
01:39:44.480 uh, by the phones of everything.
01:39:46.740 But he is right now, you, you dare not speak out.
01:39:51.080 You can't speak out about the war.
01:39:53.140 He is locking this down and he's going for what he says is a purification of Russia to
01:40:00.240 get rid of the, what did he call it?
01:40:02.380 Swine and traders.
01:40:04.000 Yeah.
01:40:04.900 I mean, that's, that's pretty disturbing when somebody calls it for a purification.
01:40:09.620 That usually means some sort of death camp is on the way.
01:40:14.180 Uh, and Russians happen to remember they're not like us.
01:40:19.240 They know it can happen in their country.
01:40:21.940 We deny it, but they've seen it.
01:40:24.900 So they know, oh yeah, it can happen here.
01:40:30.640 Don't let the conflict in Ukraine right now distract you from what's happening with inflation.
01:40:35.200 If you missed our number one today of this broadcast podcast, you need to go back and
01:40:41.560 get the full podcast wherever you get them, uh, and listen to our number one, because we
01:40:46.840 in the first 30 minutes, I really explain not only what's happening with food prices because
01:40:53.540 of inflation, but also what's coming because of world instability and what the truth is about
01:41:01.480 the ramifications of what's going on in Ukraine.
01:41:04.640 It is a very important segment that you really need to listen to.
01:41:09.680 Then you have to decide, okay, what am I going to do about it?
01:41:13.340 Well, I recommend food storage for one.
01:41:17.680 Uh, the other is please consider precious metals.
01:41:21.540 Prices are not going up.
01:41:24.260 It is that your dollar is worth less.
01:41:28.500 Now prices are also going up because of shortages, because of what we done, the administration has
01:41:35.000 done.
01:41:35.620 So you have that price increase, but then you also have the price increase because your dollar
01:41:40.680 is worth less.
01:41:41.620 Cut that out 15 cents.
01:41:46.120 You'll lose on your dollar this year.
01:41:48.400 Uh, no, thank you.
01:41:51.320 Here's what I want you to do.
01:41:52.700 I want you to call, um, the gold line right now.
01:41:57.180 Qualifying orders today will receive a signed copy of my most recent book, the great reset,
01:42:03.120 but those are also extremely limited call today.
01:42:06.720 Find out how you can acquire this new item.
01:42:08.940 I want you to find out about all of their specials.
01:42:11.780 Do your homework.
01:42:13.040 Do your homework.
01:42:14.080 866 gold line, 866 gold line or gold line.com.
01:42:20.320 All righty.
01:42:21.780 10 seconds.
01:42:22.520 Station ID.
01:42:23.080 By the way, um, outside of the paid commercial, let me just tell you the gold line, um, is
01:42:40.860 launching a new series of coins with me.
01:42:43.740 Cause I believe in silver is going to be big.
01:42:46.600 Uh, and I, I think collectible items are also very important.
01:42:52.440 Uh, that's different than, you know, money made out of coal.
01:42:56.560 This is a collectible item.
01:42:58.160 Uh, they've just launched the first, uh, coin.
01:43:01.360 It has Ben Franklin's face on it and Ben Franklin's original seal of the United States.
01:43:08.500 If you've never seen the seal that they rejected, but almost became our seal, it is the Israelites
01:43:15.700 with their back to the red sea and the filler of the pillar of fire holding back, uh, the,
01:43:23.820 the, uh, Egyptians that's on the back of the coin.
01:43:28.100 Uh, it is now available today in silver and you can get it at gold line.
01:43:33.100 And then, uh, within a couple of weeks, it'll also be, uh, available in gold and copper.
01:43:38.220 If you would like that anyway, American, I'm sorry.
01:43:41.540 It's, um, it's gold line.
01:43:43.060 One, eight, six, six gold line.
01:43:45.280 Ah, all right, Stu.
01:43:51.700 It's a lot to shake off these days.
01:43:53.500 It is.
01:43:54.080 It really is so many different things.
01:43:55.940 I don't, I have no idea how to prepare for any of it.
01:43:58.100 I don't know how to, I don't know which, which thing I'm supposed to worry about.
01:44:01.320 I do, I do find myself falling into a pattern you've warned of before, which is a lot of times
01:44:07.620 I just want to turn it off.
01:44:09.460 You know, I just don't want to hear any more of the, the terrible news, which is constant.
01:44:14.800 It's not uncommon.
01:44:16.040 It's probably more likely, uh, for a lot of people.
01:44:19.560 Um, but that's because you feel frustrated and you don't know what to do about it.
01:44:23.340 And there are steps that you've heard a million times.
01:44:26.700 Have you taken any of them?
01:44:28.220 Well, you've said them a million times.
01:44:29.160 I haven't heard them at all.
01:44:30.360 Okay.
01:44:30.540 All right.
01:44:30.980 Okay.
01:44:31.500 All right.
01:44:31.960 We should start working on that.
01:44:33.800 All right.
01:44:34.360 We may, maybe we can work on that next.
01:44:36.800 Or maybe tomorrow.
01:44:38.260 You just tell me when you're ready to listen.
01:44:40.220 Okay.
01:44:40.720 To the, can you bring someone else in here to say them?
01:44:43.060 Because it's so hard.
01:44:44.480 Such a jerk.
01:44:45.480 Such a jerk.
01:44:46.840 Back in a minute.

01:46:10.460 With the promo code Glenn, you'll save 10 bucks.
01:46:12.560 I want to talk to you a little bit about The Great Reset.
01:46:25.600 The book is available now wherever you buy your books.
01:46:30.660 You can find it at Amazon.com.
01:46:33.620 Get the hardbound copy.
01:46:35.940 I don't know the next time this will be available once we run out of paper,
01:46:39.320 this time because of the global paper shortage.
01:46:41.960 All right, let me tell you, the problem with fighting this at the state level
01:46:49.020 is the bank lobbyists and business associations that absolutely are on the war path.
01:46:56.580 If you think the Chamber of Commerce is actually your friend as a small business,
01:47:01.780 you'd be sadly mistaken, unfortunately.
01:47:04.340 If you think the big banks that are getting billions in, sorry, trillions in bailouts from the Fed
01:47:12.660 and the federal government are doing what's right for you, the little guy,
01:47:17.400 I think you'll be sadly mistaken when you find out the truth.
01:47:23.400 The bill in Idaho, for instance, to stop the state from investing in these ESG entities like BlackRock,
01:47:36.840 using your retirement money, your money, to basically kill anything that isn't environmentally friendly,
01:47:46.780 and that would mean you farmers in Idaho.
01:47:51.420 That would mean anyone who grows a tree in Idaho and wants to sell it,
01:47:55.960 but also anybody who is against social justice
01:47:59.640 and anyone who doesn't have the right people in their business and on their board in governance.
01:48:06.160 The Republicans, many of them, caved with pressure,
01:48:11.880 and that's mainly because of political ambitions,
01:48:15.920 and I'm not guessing that I've been told that by several people in the state that know.
01:48:21.680 A second reason, according to the sources on the ground,
01:48:24.220 is that the governor and treasurer released their own divestment bill
01:48:27.860 and worked quietly behind the scenes to pressure people to go with their bill.
01:48:32.340 We tried numerous times, and when I'm saying we,
01:48:35.320 I don't mean me, I mean there are several groups that are against the Great Reset.
01:48:42.540 I'm just the guy telling you about it.
01:48:45.100 I happen to go up to this state.
01:48:47.020 I'll go to other states, if invited, to talk about it.
01:48:50.480 But I'm not the guy involved in writing the bills at all.
01:48:55.420 The Heartland Foundation really is taking the lead on this one.
01:49:00.160 But the problem is, on this particular case,
01:49:03.640 what the governor did, along with the treasurer,
01:49:08.020 and they would not hear of changing it in any way or not,
01:49:12.520 the governor and treasurer now are claiming credit for being against ESG
01:49:17.160 without being against ESG,
01:49:18.900 because their bill is absolute garbage.
01:49:21.680 It is truly garbage.
01:49:23.320 Here's what it does.
01:49:24.480 Nothing of importance.
01:49:25.680 It makes it really easy for the state to continue to invest in ESG funds,
01:49:30.780 unless the state legislator or the legislature or the governor
01:49:36.120 specifically outlines that a certain investment activity
01:49:40.440 is not in the best interest of the state,
01:49:42.480 and that investment will be disallowed.
01:49:44.460 But it's left up to the governor,
01:49:46.180 and I don't think he really is part of the fight against ESG,
01:49:52.640 or it takes a new law or resolution passed by the whole legislature
01:49:57.080 to forbid a certain kind of investment.
01:49:59.460 It would be easy to reverse this action in the future
01:50:03.260 if some real ESG spines are elected,
01:50:08.980 but there is no guarantee that policymakers now or in the future
01:50:13.340 will forbid investment activities with your money,
01:50:17.960 and it appears the bill does not apply to state contracts,
01:50:21.580 which, really?
01:50:24.820 Okay.
01:50:26.280 Anyway, so that's what happened in Idaho,
01:50:29.180 and I want to give you this because this is what's happening everywhere.
01:50:35.020 This is an op-ed by the Statesman,
01:50:39.060 which is the main paper up there.
01:50:41.600 It says,
01:50:42.560 Last month,
01:50:43.280 now see if you think this is skewed at all,
01:50:45.980 or if it's a fair opinion.
01:50:47.760 Last month,
01:50:48.340 political commentator Glenn Beck visited with a group of Idaho legislators
01:50:52.140 at the state capitol to talk about a number of things,
01:50:54.980 including the latest right-wing conspiracy
01:50:57.740 surrounding ESG investing.
01:51:00.660 Good start.
01:51:01.240 Good start.
01:51:01.720 Okay.
01:51:02.300 ESG is an investment strategy
01:51:03.980 that stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance.
01:51:07.160 It's a way for companies and individuals
01:51:09.040 to invest in businesses
01:51:10.320 that are perceived to be good stewards of the environment,
01:51:13.320 are socially responsible,
01:51:14.860 and have equitable corporate governance.
01:51:17.760 It's also a way to assess companies' exposures
01:51:20.320 to risks such as climate change,
01:51:22.720 financial mismanagement,
01:51:24.340 corruption,
01:51:24.840 or other unfair labor practices,
01:51:27.260 risks that could affect stock price,
01:51:29.780 and that investors would like to know about.
01:51:32.340 That's all it is.
01:51:33.120 Uh-huh.
01:51:34.260 Well, listen,
01:51:35.640 he called,
01:51:36.260 the guy who wrote this,
01:51:37.220 called a chartered financial analyst
01:51:39.380 and portfolio manager,
01:51:41.460 and he said,
01:51:42.740 I think ESG investing is good for investors.
01:51:46.300 Oh, you were wrong.
01:51:46.980 So you're wrong.
01:51:47.740 Did they pull the copies of The Great Reset yet from the shelves?
01:51:50.640 No.
01:51:51.300 No?
01:51:51.600 They're still out there.
01:51:52.000 Which one?
01:51:52.300 The one by Klaus Schwab
01:51:53.440 that says exactly what my book says?
01:51:55.520 No, no.
01:51:56.280 I was thinking of your book.
01:51:57.320 Klaus Schwab's can stay out there.
01:51:58.560 Okay.
01:51:58.760 It gives investors,
01:52:00.440 both institutions and individuals,
01:52:02.580 an option to invest in values-based ways,
01:52:05.520 and people's values are different,
01:52:07.100 but it gives them an option.
01:52:08.400 You know,
01:52:08.620 this is really great,
01:52:09.640 and I think that if that's what this is,
01:52:12.520 that is fantastic.
01:52:13.680 So when are you going to come out with one
01:52:15.500 that is like a values-based for conservative people?
01:52:20.700 Because I'd like to do the same thing.
01:52:22.540 That sounds fun.
01:52:23.220 I'd love to invest in the companies that believe in the U.S. Constitution
01:52:27.640 and sovereignty and maybe don't bash God all the time
01:52:34.440 or tell me that I'm white, therefore I don't count.
01:52:38.980 So surely you've got another one coming out, right?
01:52:42.440 And you'll be equally punishing the people who don't adhere to that conservative philosophy, right?
01:52:49.120 ESG has been around for a long time, especially in Europe,
01:52:52.700 but it's really caught on in the United States in the last few years.
01:52:55.980 Yeah, I noticed that.
01:52:56.960 But ESG has become the latest boogeyman for the far-right conspiracy theorists like Beck,
01:53:02.180 who thinks ESG is a plot cooked up by the World Economic Forum
01:53:06.060 and people like George Soros.
01:53:08.100 No, he's the guy who started the World Economic Forum,
01:53:11.260 but I don't think he's...
01:53:12.300 Anyway, to get everyone in the world to become politically correct,
01:53:15.400 step in line with what they call the climate alarmists
01:53:18.440 and undermine American capitalism.
01:53:21.120 No, not...
01:53:22.080 Wow, I'm very surprised here, Glenn, as I read this,
01:53:24.700 because you said it was a conspiracy theory about the World Economic Forum.
01:53:28.180 And when I...
01:53:28.700 I will say, when I search Google, they must be in on it,
01:53:31.060 because the first link about the Great Reset
01:53:33.640 is a link directly to the World Economic Forum
01:53:36.440 as they explain the Great Reset.
01:53:38.240 Yeah, it's kind of a weird...
01:53:39.280 But he's got it wrong here.
01:53:40.820 He says it's to undermine American capitalism.
01:53:43.780 No, it's not.
01:53:44.340 It's to destroy it.
01:53:45.200 It's to replace American capitalism,
01:53:47.380 and you'll find that information at theworldeconomicforum.org.
01:53:52.480 Well, it's...
01:53:52.820 I mean, your problem here is you didn't put any links to that in your book.
01:53:55.840 You didn't tell anybody where they could get the information.
01:53:58.060 No, there's like 50...
01:53:58.760 You did that.
01:53:59.200 There's like 50 pages of footnotes that go directly to their own words.
01:54:03.500 Yeah.
01:54:03.760 See, I didn't know that, but I'm sure this author knew it.
01:54:05.580 No.
01:54:05.760 Because he read the book, obviously.
01:54:07.600 Yeah, so he understands.
01:54:09.440 Surely.
01:54:10.640 All of this would be innocuous enough,
01:54:12.820 except Beck persuaded Idaho legislators to get a resolution introduced this week,
01:54:16.500 fast-tracked through the committee,
01:54:18.220 and actually passed in the House
01:54:19.800 that describes the detrimental effects that ESG investing strategies have
01:54:24.360 on Idaho businesses and our values.
01:54:28.840 The same day the House passed the anti-ESG resolution,
01:54:31.780 House Republicans successfully shot down
01:54:34.200 another really controversial resolution
01:54:35.920 celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area.
01:54:41.300 Which one is more valuable for a legislation to be working on?
01:54:44.620 Yeah.
01:54:44.840 Exactly.
01:54:45.280 I'm sure the memorial thing.
01:54:47.640 Yeah.
01:54:48.220 I'm sure that's important.
01:54:49.340 I actually like Republicans that shot that down.
01:54:51.500 Who cares?
01:54:52.440 I mean, it's great.
01:54:53.500 It's 50 years old.
01:54:54.480 You want to have a party?
01:54:55.320 Have a party.
01:54:55.980 Why is the legislature doing anything on it?
01:54:57.660 Order some pizzas.
01:54:59.080 If you want.
01:55:00.480 Not on the taxpayers' time.
01:55:01.940 No, you pay for them, obviously.
01:55:03.300 Maybe they have points, you know, on their credit card they could use,
01:55:07.660 but really, no.
01:55:08.680 This thing goes on and on and on,
01:55:10.480 but what I think is interesting is the pattern.
01:55:13.560 Yeah, there's this pattern, I think, that we've seen develop with CRT
01:55:16.620 and with so many of these other stories that fit into that sort of world.
01:55:20.980 Common Core.
01:55:21.800 Common Core was the same way.
01:55:22.840 All of these things.
01:55:23.400 It starts off with, you know, conservatives start bringing this stuff up,
01:55:26.580 and then they just tell you it just doesn't exist.
01:55:28.500 Yeah.
01:55:28.640 It's either very obscure, it's just some random teaching in, like,
01:55:33.300 some obscure legal circles.
01:55:35.900 It's nothing.
01:55:36.800 Don't worry about it.
01:55:38.660 Then it crosses over from there to, okay, yes, it exists, but it's good.
01:55:44.940 Not bad.
01:55:45.700 It's good.
01:55:46.360 Not in the way.
01:55:46.920 You're misunderstanding it.
01:55:48.080 It exists, but not in the way you think.
01:55:49.280 Right.
01:55:49.520 These are all good things.
01:55:50.680 These are really positive things, and we have to have them.
01:55:53.040 And then, after that, once we get past that stage and that fails,
01:55:57.680 we go to, we're going to start canceling people who bring it up.
01:56:00.760 Yeah.
01:56:01.080 You know, those people no longer should have jobs.
01:56:03.400 Those people should no longer should have livelihoods.
01:56:06.220 I mean, I should.
01:56:07.200 Now, I obviously support that in your case, but generally speaking,
01:56:10.140 people should get fired for their views.
01:56:11.420 But that is the way it happens.
01:56:13.120 Always.
01:56:13.820 Yeah.
01:56:14.040 That doesn't exist.
01:56:14.720 That's a conspiracy theory.
01:56:16.840 Okay, yeah, but they're taking this.
01:56:18.820 It is a conspiracy theory, but it does exist.
01:56:22.500 But nothing like what you say it is.
01:56:26.340 Okay, it is like that, but it's good.
01:56:29.860 It's good.
01:56:30.580 We need that.
01:56:31.700 That's an important thing.
01:56:34.120 What, you still don't agree with it?
01:56:36.680 You need to be silenced.
01:56:38.020 If you show up at that teacher meeting, you might be a terrorist.
01:56:41.520 That's exactly the pattern.
01:56:43.800 And this guy hits the beginning of the pattern right there.
01:56:48.200 Conspiracy theory, and yet it's good.
01:56:52.500 There's another pattern this fits.
01:56:53.920 And I don't know this guy individually, you know, personally.
01:56:56.760 So I'd love to.
01:56:57.920 Let me generalize this a little bit here.
01:57:00.060 So much, particularly of financial journalism, depends on access.
01:57:04.260 And there's a huge access journalism problem with people who would report on this type of story.
01:57:10.920 Who do you go to to see if this crazy Glenn Beck conspiracy is true?
01:57:14.560 Well, they went to a local investor.
01:57:16.260 Yeah, I know.
01:57:16.860 I'm not going to spend the time to read the book and look at all the linked material from the source.
01:57:21.780 That's way too much work.
01:57:22.640 So what I'll do is I'll call my buddy who gave me the latest IPO tip last week.
01:57:28.580 And I'm going to ask them, is this real?
01:57:31.540 What is this?
01:57:32.260 And a person I trust told me that it's not a big deal.
01:57:36.380 Okay.
01:57:36.980 And we see this happen all the time.
01:57:39.100 It's famous in sports journalism because you need access to these teams.
01:57:43.280 So example from this past weekend, the Philadelphia Eagles, as you know, America's team, had have not signed a lot of free agents in the free agency period.
01:57:53.180 And a lot of their fans are complaining about this.
01:57:55.520 And so what one of the things that one of the pushbacks against that from the team is this idea that, well, no, they're not signing a lot of these guys.
01:58:04.440 But that's just because they re-signed a bunch of their players before free agency started.
01:58:09.340 So they're spending money.
01:58:10.540 I mean, they care, they want wins, but they already did it this way.
01:58:15.300 Stunningly over the weekend, every Eagles beat reporter that I follow came out with the same exact point.
01:58:23.660 You know, you guys, what you guys aren't thinking about here is they re-signed all of their players before this started.
01:58:28.200 Now, this is obviously coming from an Eagles PR person to these reporters who are regurgitating it.
01:58:34.100 And it's not the worst point in the world.
01:58:35.780 It's not, it's an interesting perspective.
01:58:37.140 However, it's when you, your job depends on access to these people, you have to play these games and act as if these are your own random thoughts off the top of your head to convince people to think about things in a different way.
01:58:51.240 This stuff happens through journalism in every single area.
01:58:53.840 So much of the news that you get comes not from, it's not, what was that movie, The Paper, where the Washington Post was featured and they're like, you know, it's not Watergate.
01:59:03.700 It's some PR person from the organization that's affected writing to the reporter and telling them what they want out there.
01:59:11.000 That is how this stuff develops.
01:59:11.840 And I think that happens on the major scale.
01:59:13.720 I doubt this.
01:59:14.420 I think this is just, I called a local friend who's an advisor and I asked him what ESG was and he said, it's no big deal.
01:59:21.560 It's been around in Europe.
01:59:22.780 Yeah, it's been around in Europe because Trump couldn't cancel the Paris Accords in Europe.
01:59:27.220 They are ahead of us.
01:59:28.520 Yes.
01:59:28.920 Yeah, but that wasn't that the big conservative complaint for, I don't know, the last 50 years?
01:59:32.920 We don't want to turn into Europe?
01:59:34.240 Yeah.
01:59:34.560 And all of a sudden we're like, oh, it's in Europe.
01:59:36.600 We could be just like Europe if we do this.
01:59:38.240 It's all of a sudden a selling point.
01:59:40.360 When did that start?
01:59:43.600 All right.
01:59:44.200 Let me tell you about LifeLock.
01:59:46.200 Pretty much every day since Al Gore invented the super highway that we all drive on every day, that information super highway.
01:59:56.400 There's been crime on that highway.
01:59:58.640 Who would have thunk it?
02:00:00.300 Well, they're out there.
02:00:01.320 They're trying to get your personal information.
02:00:03.800 Let's say it's in a it's in a digital truck and there's a digital bad guy truck right behind your truck with all the information.
02:00:12.180 Well, they're going to pull it over on the side of the highway and they're going to take all that stuff in the truck and put it in their bad guy truck and then say, see you later, sucker.
02:00:21.600 Beep, beep.
02:00:22.340 Another one for Al Gore.
02:00:24.380 Well, if you listen every day, usually in multiple different ways, I find you, I find a way to say you should protect yourself from something that is coming.
02:00:37.460 This time you have multiple devices that has your truck on that information super highway.
02:00:44.560 No one can stop all of the traffic.
02:00:47.440 Nobody can stop all of the trucks on that information because it's fast.
02:00:51.680 But if something does go wrong, they actually have the police force out to go looking for the bad guys and the people that can help put you right again.
02:01:05.000 That's really important.

02:01:21.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
02:01:40.600 I'm glad you're here.
02:01:43.080 So, do we have the video?
02:01:45.860 Just play a little bit of this video here.
02:01:47.700 I just want you to listen.
02:01:50.200 With the number of international arrivals expected to grow 50% by 2030, travelers need seamless ways to cross borders that also protect national security while protecting their personal data.
02:02:03.180 Sounds good.
02:02:03.980 The known traveler digital identity, or KTDI, is a public-private collaboration that enhances security efforts while enabling a connected journey for today's international traveler.
02:02:16.120 Who's behind this?
02:02:16.980 The KTDI is the only global travel initiative of its kind.
02:02:21.140 Oh my gosh.
02:02:21.900 Travelers can share documentation and information from one verified identity.
02:02:26.560 Oh, that's great.
02:02:27.060 With partners including government authorities, airlines, and hotels.
02:02:31.540 Huh.
02:02:31.900 The KTDI allows travelers to play an active role in travel security efforts by sharing their information proactively.
02:02:38.920 The governments and businesses are all coming together.
02:02:43.160 Travelers always retain control over what, when, and with whom they share their information.
02:02:47.520 Each data element shared by the traveler is verified, accurate, and consistent every time.
02:02:53.420 This is made possible by the technologies of distributed ledger, cryptography, and biometrics.
02:02:58.580 Can I tell you something?
02:02:59.720 We're running out of time, so you can't hear all of it.
02:03:03.160 Where do I get one?
02:03:04.220 Where do you get one?
02:03:04.760 Yeah.
02:03:05.900 Well, they're just promoting it now to get everybody used to it.
02:03:10.220 It's sponsored by the World Economic Forum.
02:03:12.940 Oh, cool.
02:03:13.940 So I can go to any of their offices.
02:03:16.040 Any of their offices, and you should sign up.
02:03:19.460 And give them a retinal scan.
02:03:21.160 Oh, yeah, they don't make things so much faster.
02:03:23.080 Yeah, nothing better than the retinal scan.
02:03:25.940 Oh, yeah.
02:03:26.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
