00:06:04.580 with

00:06:08.220 We praise thee, O Lord.

00:06:38.220 We praise thee, O Lord.

00:07:08.220 We praise thee, O Lord.

00:07:38.200 That's what CNN is saying.

00:07:39.600 But CNN is saying that we are just a white Christian America looking, white Christian nationalist movement members looking to get rid of anyone of any other color.

00:07:53.860 Again, Lord, send down your sacred asteroid to destroy us all.

00:08:00.640 They went on yesterday, and we explained all of this.

00:08:03.300 The article said there are three key beliefs associated with the white Christian nationalists.

00:08:08.040 And belief number one was a belief that the United States was founded as a Christian nation.

00:08:13.380 It took us an hour to debunk that yesterday, and they're still looking into it.

00:08:18.280 They're like, oh, there's so much information here.

00:08:20.840 I don't know what to do with it.

00:08:22.580 But let's move on.

00:08:24.160 The Constitution, they say in the article, says nothing about God, the Bible, or the Ten Commandments.

00:08:29.360 And saying the U.S. was founded as a Christian nation ignores the fact that much of its initial wealth was derived from slave labor and land stolen from the Native Americans.

00:08:42.840 All right, so let's just get these things down here.

00:08:47.160 It was Christian America that brought oppression. 1.00

00:08:50.080 Got it.

00:08:51.460 America's wealth was derived by slave labor. 0.55

00:08:54.740 Okay.

00:08:55.900 And America's land was stolen from the Native Americans. 0.77

00:09:01.560 Well, if I may, in no way, in no way does being a Christian nation imply that proponents of such a view

00:09:12.420 reject or ignore the sins of America's past.

00:09:15.580 We were sinners.

00:09:17.920 We are currently even bigger sinners.

00:09:22.640 What we actually want is historical Christian America to be more acutely aware of the failures. 0.74

00:09:31.840 And throughout our history, it has been Christian ministers, pastors, and leaders with a correct understanding of the scriptures

00:09:39.280 at the forefront of fighting against such failures and shortcomings.

00:09:44.520 So let's take them one by one.

00:09:46.480 First, Christian America brought oppression. 1.00

00:09:50.360 Well, not really.

00:09:52.800 Do you know about the witch trials over in Europe?

00:09:56.780 Yeah, lasted decades and decades and decades.

00:10:01.040 Here, it was stopped.

00:10:03.580 And it only lasted about 18 months.

00:10:05.760 Why is that?

00:10:06.640 A Christian minister, yes, pointed out, hey, you're reading the Bible incorrectly.

00:10:15.060 And then Increase Mather, he was instrumental in stopping the Salem witch trials.

00:10:19.580 He's like, I don't think we should use any of this magic stuff.

00:10:23.960 Maybe we should go back and look at, you know, in the, there has to be a witness of three or more.

00:10:31.860 And you have to have actual facts and evidence, you know, like the Bible says.

00:10:38.860 Ministers and religious leaders also led the charge against slavery.

00:10:42.720 They were using in the South, they were, they were using the Bible to say we can have slaves.

00:10:49.340 Yes, an incorrect understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

00:10:55.220 And there are many examples.

00:10:57.980 So, let's go to the second claim.

00:10:59.960 America's wealth was derived from slave labor.

00:11:03.880 Yes, that's right.

00:11:05.260 You know who used to say that a lot?

00:11:08.300 Our great, fine, fine president, old Jefferson Davis.

00:11:14.460 Yeah, old Jeff used to say that all the time.

00:11:17.380 America's wealth, it's derived from slave labor.

00:11:21.220 We can't have an America without slavery. 0.99

00:11:26.520 Unfortunately, that's not true.

00:11:30.460 Jeff Davis, go, go, go, go, go.

00:11:33.720 I think he might have been drinking.

00:11:34.980 The contention that slavery constituted a major source of wealth during the founding of America

00:11:40.620 is entirely erroneous and a little more than a gross regurgitation of old pro-slavery Confederate propaganda.

00:11:50.440 The importation of slaves in North America did not become substantial until more than a century after its initial founding.

00:11:58.860 No more than 5,000 slaves were disembarked in any year until 1727.

00:12:05.920 When it began to substantially increase, it was well after the Christian founding.

00:12:14.020 By the way, does anybody know that if New England would have been considered a country and not England,

00:12:20.360 New England would have been considered the first country in the world 50 years ahead of everybody else of abolishing slavery?

00:12:33.380 Yeah, New England did that. 0.89

00:12:36.100 Abolished slavery 50 years before anyone else.

00:12:40.420 Did anybody know that our pilgrims actually, because of a storm, had a slave ship wash up upon their shores?

00:12:49.140 But the Bible calls that to man-stealing.

00:12:53.800 And when they boarded the ship and realized that it was a slave ship, they arrested the captain and the crew.

00:13:00.620 Then they took a collection.

00:13:03.380 I'm passing around the collection plate.

00:13:05.720 Give until it hurts, pilgrims.

00:13:08.280 And they did.

00:13:09.540 And you know what they used that money for?

00:13:11.180 Ha! 0.89

00:13:11.840 It's crazy.

00:13:13.000 They used that money to gain the passage on that ship with a new crew back to Africa.

00:13:24.180 Ha! 0.89

00:13:24.980 That's weird.

00:13:26.840 Significantly, slavery impoverished the areas which practiced it in comparison to those parts of the country, which did not.

00:13:35.640 Let me give you Alex de Tocqueville.

00:13:37.420 He noted that the colonies in which there was no slaves became more populous and more prosperous than those in which slavery flourished.

00:13:47.520 De Tocqueville's observations are confirmed by the facts of economic history.

00:13:52.940 But why care about that?

00:13:54.500 We're so busy redefining history and economics, I don't think we're actually in a recession.

00:14:01.820 The story of the South is one of stagnation and increasingly falling behind the rest of the nation.

00:14:09.100 Aside from the few owners of large plantations, the people of the South were generally more impoverished than the people in the North.

00:14:15.860 At the time of the Revolutionary War, the South had been the wealthier region by far.

00:14:20.960 But their reliance upon slavery sapped the strength out of the region.

00:14:26.160 As economic historians from Harvard and UC Davis explained when they were sane,

00:14:31.820 From 1774 and 1860, the per annum growth rates for New England, 1.26%, the Middle Atlantic, 1.08%, and the South's 0.31%.

00:14:47.520 By 1860, the real product per capita in the South was 40 points behind New England.

00:14:55.340 A Harvard economic study identified that even today there exists a significant negative relationship between past slave use and current economic performance.

00:15:05.780 In fact, all forms of slavery were detrimental to economic development.

00:15:11.340 But CNN, why take it from Harvard?

00:15:13.980 You know, as early as 1793, major figures such as Nora Webster pointed out,

00:15:20.980 In no particular are the deplorable effects of slavery more visible than in checking the destroying of national industry and productivity.

00:15:33.900 Wherever we turn our eyes to view the comparative effects of freedom and slavery on agriculture, arts, commerce, science,

00:15:41.460 The mind is deeply affected at the astonishing contrast.

00:15:46.840 To labor solely for the benefit of other man is repugnant to every principle of the human heart.

00:15:54.300 Third, and I love this one,

00:15:56.960 America's land was stolen from the Native Americans. 0.99

00:16:00.860 Well, we may have to open up our hymnals again.

00:16:05.380 As my sermon today,

00:16:08.900 To bring CNN out of the fires of hail,

00:16:13.360 Continues in 60 seconds.

00:16:18.460 Let me talk to you about relief factor.

00:16:20.180 When you live in pain,

00:16:21.040 Sometimes getting through the day just means doing the best you can,

00:16:24.460 Even when that's a lot less than it used to be.

00:16:27.800 Knowing that you could be doing so much more,

00:16:30.120 Enjoying your life so much more is frustrating because you've tried everything you can think of.

00:16:35.060 I know because it used to be me.

00:16:37.940 I know because my hands got into such cramps and I'd have so much pain in my body.

00:16:45.000 I just couldn't do anything.

00:16:47.200 My wife finally convinced me,

00:16:49.300 Why aren't you trying relief factor?

00:16:51.380 It's an advertiser on the plays all the time.

00:16:54.160 And I'm like,

00:16:54.640 Yeah, but I mean,

00:16:57.100 You know,

00:16:59.100 It's a radio show host.

00:17:01.060 They're not experts.

00:17:02.280 Honey, I'm a doctor.

00:17:04.420 And she said,

00:17:05.460 Why would you guys take a commercial that you don't believe in?

00:17:08.180 And I said,

00:17:08.640 Well,

00:17:09.520 I'm not saying that it doesn't work.

00:17:11.740 It won't work for me.

00:17:13.720 Because ibuprofen,

00:17:16.140 That's a joke.

00:17:17.280 It doesn't ever work for me.

00:17:19.300 Inflammation.

00:17:20.380 She said,

00:17:21.340 I'm not going to listen to you whining anymore unless you try it.

00:17:23.540 So I tried it.

00:17:24.900 This has four different ingredients that attack inflammation from four different directions instead of ibuprofen.

00:17:32.000 And it's one direction.

00:17:34.160 I don't know why,

00:17:35.480 But this works for me.

00:17:36.700 70% of the people who try it go on to order more because they feel the same way I do.

00:17:51.320 Station ID.

00:18:02.780 Oh, yes.

00:18:04.860 Oh, yes.

00:18:06.220 So now, today, we continue with our sermon.

00:18:11.160 We just talked to you a little bit about, you know, the three things that the CNN was pointing out that shows that we just want a resurgence of the Old South.

00:18:24.400 And that we just don't understand America's true history.

00:18:28.440 For instance, the third point was America's land was stolen from Native Americans. 0.84

00:18:33.280 Ministers and religious communities were at the forefront in treating Native tribes with respect and honoring land deals.

00:18:41.140 Yes, CNN, it's true.

00:18:43.800 The religious pilgrims strictly only occupied land lawfully purchased. 0.92

00:18:49.440 This land was bought at a price agreed upon by the Native tribes in founding Plymouth in 1620.

00:18:58.100 At the start of King Philip's War in 1675, Plymouth Governor Joshua Winslow explained,

00:19:04.080 I think I can clearly say that before these present troubles broke out, the English did not possess one foot of land in this colony that was not fairly obtained by honest purchase of the Indian proprietors.

00:19:21.500 Reverend Roger Williams lawfully purchased the land lawfully purchased the land at a price agreed upon by the Native tribes in order to found New Haven in 1637.

00:19:41.600 In founding Pennsylvania, and this is an incredible stat I had never heard before.

00:19:48.240 William Penn, as in Pennsylvania, purchased the land from the Indians, but there was a problem.

00:19:57.240 When they purchased the land from one tribe, the other tribe said, well, but they stole it from us. 0.98

00:20:02.860 We're the actual owners.

00:20:04.460 Parts of Pennsylvania, William Penn bought three separate times just to make sure he had secured a clear title from each tribe that claimed it had been stolen from them by another Indian tribe.

00:20:30.400 Remember the 1888 wall map of Jamestown versus the pilgrims.

00:20:35.300 I showed this to you on a couple of TV shows, and I've talked about it on radio throughout the Northeast and most of early America.

00:20:43.340 The land was purchased by the colonists in the South.

00:20:48.340 It was different.

00:20:49.320 But because the land was bought, the longest lasting treaty in American history between whites and Indians was the treaties between the pilgrims and the Indians.

00:21:00.400 And who broke that treaty?

00:21:02.240 Yes.

00:21:03.740 Yes.

00:21:04.900 The Indians.

00:21:06.860 If you look at that map I showed you, it shows Jamestown is founded on slavery.

00:21:13.280 It becomes an absolute nightmare and everything goes sour from there.

00:21:19.460 This is the same argument that we had before the Civil War.

00:21:23.020 Were we a country founded in slavery with Jamestown, or are we a Christian nation that come from the pilgrims that tried to do the things right?

00:21:36.480 Well, guess which one I think we are, and guess which one I think we should be.

00:21:42.040 White Christian nationalists, they say, CNN, belief number two.

00:21:47.160 A belief in a warrior Christ.

00:21:50.020 They write, videos from the January 6th attack show a chaotic, tear gas-soaked scene at the Capitol that looks more like a medieval battle.

00:22:02.000 Insurrectionists punched police officers, used flagpoles and spears, and smashed officers' faces against doors while a mob chouted, fight for Trump. 0.57

00:22:11.840 The attack left five people dead.

00:22:13.720 No, it didn't.

00:22:14.440 Nearly 140 law enforcement officers injured.

00:22:17.240 The incongruity of people carrying Jesus' save signs while joining a mob whose members are pummeling police officers leads to an obvious question.

00:22:27.140 How can white Christian nationalists who claim to follow Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who renounced violence in the Gospels, support violent insurrection?

00:22:36.800 You know, it's crazy.

00:22:39.080 It's crazy.

00:22:40.020 I got an answer to that one.

00:22:42.140 Next, the Glenn Beck Program.

00:22:44.180 Let me tell you about Rough Greens.

00:22:48.220 You probably spend at least some of the time thinking about nutrition that is contained in the food you eat.

00:22:53.460 I know.

00:22:54.140 I think about it, you know.

00:22:56.160 Ask yourself this question.

00:22:57.620 Have you thought about the nutritional value of your dog's food?

00:23:01.360 If you're feeding him or her kibble food, the answer is, well, almost nothing is nutritional in that,

00:23:07.440 because they sterilize the stuff out for a long shelf life.

00:23:10.600 Please check out Rough Greens.

00:23:13.000 It's not a dog food.

00:23:14.140 It is a supplement developed by Dr. Dennis Black.

00:23:17.660 And you sprinkle this on the dog food, and it's chock full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants.

00:23:24.120 You name it.

00:23:24.800 If it's healthy for you, or if it's healthy for the dog, it's probably in Rough Greens.

00:23:29.700 And most dogs love it and will go crazy.

00:23:32.520 I want you to try it out with your dog.

00:23:34.340 Now, if your dog doesn't eat it, you know, then it's worthless to you.

00:23:39.600 But they want to send you a free bag just to make sure your dog eats it.

00:23:43.900 If your dog eats it, I'm telling you, you will see healthy changes over the next 6, 8, 12 months with your dog.

00:23:51.180 It's amazing.

00:23:52.200 It's free.

00:24:04.340 Yes, we are debunking the almighty CNN today.

00:24:20.280 All right.

00:24:21.480 So the next part of the CNN article is white Christian nationalists believe in a warrior Christ.

00:24:30.620 They write videos from the January 6th attack show chaotic tear gas soaked scene with capital that looked more like a medieval battle.

00:24:38.860 Insurrectionists punch police officers use flagpoles of spears and smashed officers faces against doors while a mob chanted fight for Trump.

00:24:46.620 The attack left five people dead.

00:24:48.440 No.

00:24:48.900 And nearly 140 enforcement officers injured.

00:24:52.560 The incongruity of people carrying Jesus save signs while joining the mob whose members are pummeling police officers lead to an obvious question.

00:25:00.340 How can white Christian nationalists who claim to follow Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who renounced violence in the gospel, support a violent insurrection?

00:25:08.800 You know, I really have a hard time for, you know, when I listen to people who will deny the gospel, deny Jesus Christ, deny even God, preach to me about what Jesus Christ in the Bible says.

00:25:20.700 But I digress.

00:25:22.660 The problem is, they say in the article, that's because they follow a different Jesus than one depicted in the gospels, says Dumez, who is a professor of history and gender studies at Calvin University, a Christian school in Michigan.

00:25:37.540 They follow the Jesus depicted in the book of Revelation, the warrior with eyes like flames of fire and a robe dipped in blood and led armies of heaven on white horses in the final triumphant battle against the forces of the Antichrist.

00:25:52.120 White Christian nationalists have refashioned Jesus into a kick-butt savior who's willing to smite enemies to restore America to a Christian nation by force if necessary.

00:26:03.220 Yeah, nope.

00:26:04.360 That is, by the way, the last line of that is, Dumez and others say, I'd like to know who all the others are, but again, I digress.

00:26:15.140 Okay, we're looking, we're refashioning Jesus into a kick-butt savior who's willing to smite enemies to restore America to a Christian nation by force. 0.96

00:26:24.100 You know, I think the kick-butt Jesus might come and destroy all of us in America for the way we're living, but that's what he will do.

00:26:32.620 He will lead armies, not us.

00:26:36.180 In what church, by the way, is anyone hearing?

00:26:39.640 Because remember, CNN said every Christian pastor and every faith leader is now bullied into thinking they have to preach this crap.

00:26:48.040 Does anyone, anywhere, recall a recent sermon where the pastor depicted, or a stained glass window where Jesus is dressed up like Rambo with a .50 caliber bullet belt wrapped around his chest?

00:27:03.500 Here's what my faith teaches, and it might be what your faith teaches, something like this.

00:27:09.520 God is a lamb.

00:27:11.460 Jesus is a lamb, but he is also a lion, and he will roar.

00:27:18.020 We have to follow in his footsteps and love even our enemies if we expect to be on his side.

00:27:25.040 Otherwise, when he roars, we'll be destroyed, too.

00:27:29.000 He is not a terrorist.

00:27:31.020 He is not a killer.

00:27:32.540 In fact, because he died for our sins, he did nothing to defend even his own life.

00:27:37.840 However, he does not require us to be nailed to a cross.

00:27:43.120 That was his job.

00:27:44.160 So we can, each of us, all people, I don't care what faith, religion, I don't care what color of skin, I don't care if you're a Republican, Democrat, or Independent, everyone has a right to defend themselves and their families.

00:27:59.400 But to hate our enemies, even wish ill on them, on those who hate us or may hate us, is not the spirit of Christ.

00:28:09.460 That is the spirit of the world, and that is the spirit of natural man.

00:28:12.720 We cannot fight hatred with hatred.

00:28:16.040 Only love will conquer what we are going through.

00:28:20.280 We have to love truth more than ourselves.

00:28:23.480 We have to love mercy more than life.

00:28:27.420 Next one, white Christian nationalist belief number three.

00:28:31.860 A belief that there's such a person as a real American.

00:28:35.560 Well, that's right.

00:28:36.740 There is a real American out there.

00:28:38.960 The article says in 2008 presidential election, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin introduced a new term to the political discourse. 1.00

00:28:46.800 She talked about the real America and the pro-America areas of this great nation.

00:28:51.340 Since then, many conservative political candidates have used the term real Americans to draw contrast between their supporters and their opposition.

00:28:58.860 Such language has been co-opted into a worldview held by not many white Christian nationalists, a nation divided between real Americans and other citizens who don't deserve the same rights, experts on white Christian nationalism say.

00:29:14.860 Again, I'd like to know who the experts are.

00:29:16.740 Okay, first of all, there are real Americans.

00:29:22.120 I mean, let's cut through the bullcrap here because it has nothing to do with Christian faith and doctrine. 0.55

00:29:26.700 Nothing.

00:29:27.520 What CNN is so opposed to here, the term real America, is something that Americans used to see as a compliment.

00:29:36.320 It's individual liberty.

00:29:38.100 It is the right to life, liberty, and property, the ability to protect those rights as your own first responder.

00:29:45.040 It's a belief that there is a law of the land and that we are a land of laws and not men.

00:29:52.500 Because of that, no man, no one person is above the law. 0.98

00:29:58.040 The real America is an America of freedom.

00:30:01.640 And those freedoms come with responsibilities.

00:30:04.640 And those freedoms must never be infringed upon by the national government, nor the people with different political beliefs that live in large cities on the coast.

00:30:15.660 Nor can the people in the middle of the country take away the rights from the people who live in the large cities on the coast.

00:30:24.140 This is the only thing required to be an American.

00:30:29.800 Your race, your religion, your station in life, your education, where you live, your belief in lower or higher taxes, does not make you an American.

00:30:43.380 If you're a Democrat, you can be a real American.

00:30:46.480 If you're a Republican, Independent, you can be a real American.

00:30:50.180 The real American believes truly in one thing. 0.81

00:30:55.200 And we can disagree on everything else.

00:30:59.160 You believe that all men are created equal and endowed by a creator with certain inalienable rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

00:31:09.080 And governments are instituted among men to protect those rights.

00:31:15.680 That's all you have to believe in.

00:31:19.320 You just have to believe that the government cannot infringe on the Bill of Rights.

00:31:24.120 And there's many more rights than that.

00:31:26.480 But they have, the federal government has no way, no right to infringe on those.

00:31:34.420 Because we are supposed to be masters of our own life.

00:31:38.660 We answer to God.

00:31:40.260 The government answers to us.

00:31:42.460 That's what we, you know, that's why people came here from all over the world.

00:31:47.840 That's why they still come here.

00:31:49.100 There was a rule of law.

00:31:51.100 Have you noticed that all the nations where people are flocking to America for good reasons, they come across the border, they do everything.

00:31:59.840 Why?

00:32:00.740 Because in their nation, their station of life is permanent. 0.52

00:32:04.880 You're born in poverty.

00:32:06.040 You live in poverty.

00:32:07.740 You cannot change your station in life.

00:32:10.020 And the government plays games.

00:32:12.700 They pick favorites.

00:32:14.060 That's why they came here.

00:32:15.860 They came here because they believe they have a chance.

00:32:19.120 Now, America has not always been that place.

00:32:22.160 But the question is, are we getting better or worse?

00:32:25.980 We should not be trying to abolish this.

00:32:28.900 We should be trying to be better at our mission statement that all men are created equal.

00:32:34.580 See, this is what CNN is hinting at here.

00:32:39.580 They are hinting that, you know, America sucks.

00:32:45.040 And anybody who wants to believe what the founders did is wrong.

00:32:50.140 And if you say you're a real American, what does that even mean?

00:32:53.640 I just told you.

00:32:54.840 That doesn't make us all the same, which the left is currently trying to make everyone the same.

00:33:06.520 They're against things like the Electoral College.

00:33:12.700 They want people in New York and Los Angeles to dictate how people live their lives in places like Idaho or Texas.

00:33:19.000 I don't want Idaho or Texas telling New York or California how to live their life, what to do with their own governments.

00:33:28.340 That's their choice.

00:33:29.920 They want open borders as long as those borders don't reach their own cities.

00:33:35.520 I'll talk about that next hour.

00:33:37.420 They want our cities to burn if their demands are not met as long as those cities aren't their own.

00:33:44.240 Sometimes they are their own and they don't care.

00:33:48.320 We don't believe that.

00:33:50.720 Americans don't believe that.

00:33:53.500 Democrats don't believe that.

00:33:56.000 Democrats in power may.

00:33:57.900 Democrats, or I should say Marxists, who are posing as Democrats, believe that.

00:34:06.400 But Americans don't. 0.90

00:34:09.340 The real America is only an America operating under its Constitution and Declaration of Independence. 0.50

00:34:17.040 And I'm sure a large majority of Christians agree with the U.S. Constitution.

00:34:22.080 If you don't agree with the Constitution and you want to change the Constitution, not through the regular constitutional process, because you can amend it, you don't want guns, amend the Constitution.

00:34:37.260 If you want to go outside of the Constitution, destroy it or change it in any other means, then really, by definition, you cannot be not a real American.

00:34:49.500 You cannot be an American because you are calling for things that the American system does not do.

00:34:58.200 There are clear ways to change it if you don't like it or you think it's a mistake, but you don't like those rules.

00:35:06.440 We're just asking for those rules to apply equally to everyone and for those rules to apply.

00:35:15.680 This entire article is nothing more than assault on people of faith, but it's dressed up with words, white and nationalism, purely to give it a January 6th spin.

00:35:27.260 The next part gives it all away.

00:35:29.280 Quote, those who want the U.S. to become a Christian nation face a huge obstacle.

00:35:34.120 Most Americans don't subscribe to their vision of America.

00:35:37.280 Well, if their vision of America is what CNN said, I'd be with you.

00:35:43.020 But this is a lie written by experts who are not experts in theology, who are not experts in history.

00:35:54.940 They are activists and most likely Marxists.

00:36:00.580 The mainstreaming of white Christian nationalism comes from a growing number of Americans who are rejecting organized religion.

00:36:07.600 For the first time in the U.S. last year, membership in communities of worship fell below 50 percent.

00:36:12.260 Belief in God is at an all-time low.

00:36:14.620 Why is that?

00:36:15.900 Is that because of our white nationalist Christians?

00:36:20.340 Or is that because of our society?

00:36:23.460 Is that because of our universities?

00:36:26.620 Is that because, like Woodrow Wilson said,

00:36:29.940 the point of a university is to make a man the most unlike his father as possible?

00:36:36.060 Faith in God and Christianity in general is what's on trial here.

00:36:42.140 As I showed you over the last two days, this country is a Christian nation.

00:36:47.540 It is what our founders believed.

00:36:49.920 And it is what led them to create the Constitution and our laws and everything our society is built upon.

00:36:57.120 But it does not mean that it is a government that is Christian.

00:37:03.640 It was built on Christian principles.

00:37:08.540 But it is not a government of Christians.

00:37:13.480 It is a nation that is Christian.

00:37:18.000 The government is neutral and protects everyone equally.

00:37:23.000 That is why faith in God has to be eroded.

00:37:28.700 Because they don't believe that.

00:37:30.520 They have dressed it up as that.

00:37:33.420 But that is not what they actually say and mean.

00:37:37.760 To them, it all has to come down.

00:37:39.700 And it's the same tactics that have been seen in places like the 1930s in Germany,

00:37:44.200 the Soviet Union, and Mao's China.

00:37:46.340 This is another Marxist attack, and it is easy to debunk.

00:38:35.920 One night years ago, this old sheet snob lay in bed thinking, that's it.

00:38:47.420 I'm going to live the high life from now on.

00:38:52.240 And I was.

00:38:53.800 It had become an addiction, an obsession for me.

00:38:56.000 A desperate need to be fulfilled every time I bought a set of sheets.

00:43:18.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:22.380 Stand up

00:43:23.380 Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:28.140 There's a lot going on this week, huge week.

00:43:31.940 We found out that the, we have confirmation now that the United States, our government, was working hand in hand and coordinating the silencing of people about COVID online, working with these giant corporations to curb freedom of speech.

00:43:52.280 We also have 17 now proven incidences where we know that Joe Biden was intimately involved in his son's business.

00:44:03.300 We also had the proof now, two consecutive months of contraction of our economy.

00:44:10.800 We are in a recession now, officially.

00:44:16.580 And we just got our inflation numbers.

00:44:21.220 Yay! 0.99

00:44:22.820 How's that going?

00:44:23.880 What is the biggest story of the week?

00:44:25.920 We'll ask Bill O'Reilly in 60 seconds.

00:44:28.100 First, Megan was in a horrible car accident that left her with shooting pains down her neck and her back.

00:44:35.300 She heard me talking about Relief Factor, decided to give it a try, and she said within two days, her pain began to subside.

00:44:42.280 Now that is, that's highly unusual that it happens in two days, but God bless you.

00:44:48.240 Megan, thank you for trying.

00:44:49.980 She said within a few weeks, she was completely back to normal.

00:44:53.000 Megan considers her discovery of Relief Factor to be nothing short of a miracle, and it shows.

00:44:59.800 Megan got her life back with Relief Factor. 0.99

00:45:02.800 So did I, and so can you.

00:45:05.480 The three-week quick start developed just for you is $19.95.

00:45:09.060 It's a dollar a day like a trial pack, and hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor.

00:45:13.740 70% of them have gone on to order more, and that says a lot.

00:45:17.820 ReliefFactor.com.

00:45:19.020 Call 1-800-4-RELIEF.

00:45:20.720 Get the $19.95 three-week quick start developed for you.

00:45:24.200 It's ReliefFactor.com.

00:45:25.980 Call the number 800-4-RELIEF.

00:45:29.520 ReliefFactor.com.

00:45:30.760 Feel the difference.

00:45:32.800 Mr. Bill O'Reilly joins us every Friday.

00:45:35.480 He is found now at BillOReilly.com.

00:45:38.480 He is still doing his no-spin zone and the no-spin news every night at BillOReilly.com.

00:45:45.280 He's also the author of several.

00:45:46.640 Number one, best-selling books, Killing the Killers, is his latest.

00:45:52.220 It is out now, The Secret War Against Terrorists, and he is joining us today.

00:45:57.100 Bill, what is the biggest story of the week?

00:46:00.180 Well, this is no joke, Beck.

00:46:01.620 I'm not being facetious.

00:46:02.860 It's the, there is no, there's not, there's not, there's not, there's not a recession.

00:46:09.080 You know, all of this talk about the GPS coming in, the GPS doesn't, it doesn't indicate we're

00:46:14.400 in a recession.

00:46:15.660 It indicates that the diner is two miles away.

00:46:18.920 So the GPS doesn't matter.

00:46:20.680 We're not in a recession.

00:46:21.900 It's no joke.

00:46:23.380 Here's the deal.

00:46:24.320 The deal is that I don't know anything about the economy, and why would I know?

00:46:29.500 Because I don't know anything about anything.

00:46:31.460 I'm president, and the only reason I'm president is that everybody voted against Trump, and that's

00:46:36.260 no joke.

00:46:37.600 It is crazy, Bill, how many words he has redefined.

00:46:43.400 Yeah.

00:46:43.980 I mean, he's redefining all these words that just disagree with him.

00:46:48.540 It is two quarters of contraction.

00:46:52.620 We have always, always known that.

00:46:56.320 And now he says, no, no, no, because of other things, there's no way we're in a recession.

00:47:01.420 It doesn't matter, really.

00:47:03.420 It doesn't matter.

00:47:04.160 This, in fact, is not a recession.

00:47:07.380 It's a depression.

00:47:09.140 It's far worse than a recession.

00:47:10.900 Wow.

00:47:11.860 Now, look, how many times have we spoken, two of the smartest guys in the country, me and Stu,

00:47:19.280 how many times have we said to the Beck audience, he doesn't know what he's doing.

00:47:25.940 He just doesn't know.

00:47:27.340 So right now, at the southern border, five times as many illegal migrants are coming to

00:47:34.580 the United States than happened in the last year of Trump.

00:47:38.580 Yet Biden said, no, we don't have a border problem.

00:47:41.520 No, it's secure.

00:47:42.360 Well, this is one of the things I do want to talk to you about, the D.C. mayor calling

00:47:52.180 for the National Guard to indefinitely help with bust-in migrants.

00:47:57.240 That's right.

00:47:57.700 They have, I don't even know, 4,000 of them.

00:48:00.720 And they say Washington is crippled and can't function.

00:48:07.380 How many hundreds of thousands are in Texas now, and they don't want to give us any help?

00:48:14.560 No.

00:48:14.980 And the D.C. mayor, I mean, you know, she's appalled by these migrants actually coming to 1.00

00:48:22.340 the nation's capital.

00:48:23.540 But she supports the open border.

00:48:29.240 So I'm not quite sure.

00:48:31.040 But you know what I love?

00:48:31.960 Here's what I love.

00:48:33.120 So my organization, as you nicely pointed out, on BillOReilly.com, we did, on a daily basis,

00:48:42.620 we do, we ask the White House questions.

00:48:44.980 We send things into their press office.

00:48:49.180 And one of the things we sent in is, are you going to do anything about the airlines that

00:48:59.420 they can't get off the ground?

00:49:01.720 And under Trump, we didn't have this problem, but why do we have it now?

00:49:05.260 And are you going to do anything about it?

00:49:06.700 So I'm being facetious.

00:49:08.880 This is a joke.

00:49:10.620 They come back, we don't have an airline problem.

00:49:13.340 Those migrant flights take off on time every time.

00:49:16.100 I mean, they just zip into the air.

00:49:17.880 What are you talking about, O'Reilly?

00:49:21.140 You don't have any problems.

00:49:22.360 We get those migrants out of here. 1.00

00:49:23.340 There's no congestion at the airport.

00:49:25.220 It's a lot of work.

00:49:27.300 Right.

00:49:27.780 At two o'clock in the morning, the airport is clean.

00:49:31.760 They get Iran on the plane.

00:49:33.700 And there's no security.

00:49:35.060 We don't have a security problem.

00:49:36.260 Why don't we just put them on there?

00:49:37.700 So, look, the big story, you know, we talk about what's a big story of the week.

00:49:44.240 The big story of the week, the year, the year and a half, is that the president of the United

00:49:49.840 States is delusional.

00:49:52.700 That's the story.

00:49:54.160 So, yeah, you can make fun of him and you can angst over what he does on a daily basis.

00:50:01.200 But the only solution to this is to neuter him like a cat.

00:50:06.120 Okay.

00:50:06.420 So, in November, if you are voting Democrat, I have a lot of liberal friends.

00:50:14.020 If you're casting a vote for this crew in any way, shape, or form, whether it be local,

00:50:20.920 whether it be state, federal, you are voting against yourself.

00:50:25.540 You're voting to hurt yourself and your family.

00:50:29.140 Do you not understand that?

00:50:32.900 People in the ghettos of Chicago. 0.57

00:50:35.600 Do you not see the dead people in the street?

00:50:40.780 What is wrong with you?

00:50:43.740 So, I think now the angst has to turn onto the American people.

00:50:49.440 We know Biden is delusional.

00:50:52.400 He thinks the border's secure.

00:50:54.580 He doesn't believe that we're in a recession.

00:50:58.680 He'll never believe it.

00:51:00.880 Okay.

00:51:01.380 We know the press is corrupt.

00:51:03.320 There's no two sides to that story.

00:51:06.740 They just ignore important situations that make the Biden administration look bad.

00:51:14.540 They just won't report it.

00:51:16.380 That's corruption.

00:51:17.700 We know all that.

00:51:19.020 But the American people who continue to vote for progressive Democrats, they're responsible.

00:51:28.360 It's you.

00:51:29.460 Now, I don't want to go ahead.

00:51:33.580 I just want to change the subject here for a second.

00:51:38.420 I want to ask you about the Jim Jordan revelation.

00:51:41.700 Jim Jordan said yesterday, an exclusive from Fox News, that a new whistleblower has come out

00:51:47.580 and revealed the push by the FBI to pad domestic terrorism data.

00:51:53.120 Now, this is something that I told the American people about six months ago, that they had actually,

00:51:59.400 if you looked at the data of white nationalist crime and violence, they were actually going

00:52:05.260 into the prisons and taking the Klan members and the white nationalists in prison, and they 0.79

00:52:12.660 were counting the times that there were fights.

00:52:15.720 Yeah.

00:52:16.740 So now it comes out.

00:52:19.160 Okay.

00:52:19.540 Number one.

00:52:20.680 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:52:22.140 Now.

00:52:22.360 Go ahead.

00:52:23.080 Okay.

00:52:23.360 Hang on just a second, because I want to make sure that because most people haven't heard

00:52:26.120 this story yet.

00:52:26.940 I didn't.

00:52:27.400 He also says that the FBI officials are pressuring the agents to reclassify cases as domestic

00:52:34.760 violent extremists, even if the cases don't miss meet the criteria for such classification.

00:52:40.520 Given the narrative pushed by the Biden administration, that domestic violent extremism is the

00:52:44.640 greatest threat surrounding our country, revelation that the FBI may be actually artificially padding

00:52:51.120 domestic terrorism data is scandalous.

00:52:53.960 These whistleblowers are saying, I can't take what the FBI is doing anymore.

00:52:58.200 These are FBI agents that are saying they're told to take the case that they're working on

00:53:04.100 and find a way to make it a violent white nationalist terrorist activity.

00:53:10.520 Okay.

00:53:11.260 I hadn't heard that.

00:53:12.640 Number one, did Jim Jordan, who announced that he wore a sweatshirt, his attire has been

00:53:17.900 disintegrating here.

00:53:19.420 I don't.

00:53:19.740 At first, he had a tie.

00:53:21.240 Now, he's kind of in a sweatshirt.

00:53:23.720 I don't know.

00:53:24.260 Next, he'll be in a muscle tee.

00:53:26.460 But anyway.

00:53:27.200 I don't care what he wears.

00:53:29.540 Is anybody surprised by what you just told everybody?

00:53:32.320 Look, let's just walk through it very methodically.

00:53:35.740 Merrick Garland, what's the biggest threat to the United States?

00:53:38.260 White, national, supremacist terrorism.

00:53:41.840 He said it on the record.

00:53:43.560 Christopher Wray, FBI chief, works for Garland.

00:53:46.480 Okay.

00:53:47.220 Has to do what Garland says.

00:53:49.180 Or Biden, who doesn't even know where the FBI building is, would appoint another FBI chief.

00:53:54.600 Because that's, he could get fired any second.

00:53:57.460 So it comes down to the FBI agents.

00:54:00.320 Yeah, yeah, let's gin this up.

00:54:02.460 Yeah, these people in Idaho, they're going to blow up something.

00:54:06.600 I, you know, oh, okay.

00:54:08.300 So it's all true.

00:54:09.400 It's all true.

00:54:10.400 I did a special this week on Bill O'Reilly.com called Defending America.

00:54:15.340 Okay.

00:54:15.840 Off Killing the Killers, because that is the ultimate book on terrorism.

00:54:20.680 We're okay internationally.

00:54:23.520 But because of the open border, it's a growing threat from the jihadists.

00:54:30.020 Because they can get through easy, all right, to do some bad things in the United States.

00:54:37.060 The Biden administration doesn't, you know, the jihadists are coming in with fentanyl now.

00:54:41.120 They're making a lot of money.

00:54:42.440 And it's just ridiculous.

00:54:45.020 But anyway, I did a whole hour on it.

00:54:48.260 And it's absolutely true.

00:54:50.800 The diversion into, oh, these white supremacists.

00:54:54.300 These are the guys.

00:54:55.840 What are they?

00:54:56.380 I mean, I don't even, do you know any back?

00:54:59.040 I mean, I'm in New York.

00:55:00.540 I don't know any white supremacists.

00:55:02.300 Do you?

00:55:02.760 No.

00:55:03.400 I don't.

00:55:03.920 No, I don't.

00:55:04.380 And you're up in Idaho and in Texas, where I guess they are, right?

00:55:09.280 Aren't they there?

00:55:09.860 Yeah.

00:55:10.340 There are some.

00:55:11.260 No, there are some white supremacist groups.

00:55:15.200 But they are nowhere near the biggest threat to the country.

00:55:18.840 They are a problem.

00:55:20.480 And as things get worse and worse, I think more and more people will look for somebody who's willing to do something.

00:55:26.880 And unfortunately, history tells us they will look to radicals.

00:55:30.540 And so they could become dangerous, but not not the most dangerous in our country.

00:55:37.220 There are problems and they've been there forever.

00:55:41.160 Let me change the subject here.

00:55:42.880 One more question on one more story.

00:55:45.080 I want your comment on before I take a break.

00:55:48.120 And that is China.

00:55:51.780 China's leader has just said to Biden with the Pelosi Taiwan trip, those who play with fire will perish.

00:56:01.960 They are saying that they will see this as hostile.

00:56:05.460 This is something highly unusual.

00:56:07.020 Usually our people go over to countries like Taiwan and then the trip is announced after they leave the country.

00:56:14.420 Like, OK, now we can't back down, can we or should we?

00:56:19.320 This is what I want to see.

00:56:21.560 I want Pelosi to go over to China and I want one of the Chinese spies in Taiwan. 0.94

00:56:28.380 And believe me, they're a legion to put marijuana oil in her bag and then be arrested and held. 0.65

00:56:38.040 OK, for months.

00:56:39.800 Wouldn't that be good?

00:56:40.660 Right.

00:56:41.100 That'd be a problem.

00:56:41.860 Yeah, Kudlow said it last night.

00:56:47.460 Kudlow said, look, if Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives, wants to visit a country and we have business with that country, high tech business, chip business, then she should go.

00:57:00.180 And if they don't like it in Beijing, they don't like it.

00:57:04.000 But, you know, to power before them, obviously, this is a test.

00:57:10.440 This is this is what they do.

00:57:12.120 These totalitarians.

00:57:13.480 This is what Hitler did. 0.95

00:57:14.560 It's what Mussolini did.

00:57:16.260 They push and push and see how far and see how scared you are.

00:57:20.040 They're the bullies.

00:57:21.080 So, OK, the solution, the solution to me on this was to not announce it until you've left.

00:57:28.480 That way you accomplish what you want and they don't have time to say, don't you dare come.

00:57:34.880 This is just, you know, that's the way we always do it.

00:57:38.900 Yeah, that's the way we always do business as usual.

00:57:42.760 Yeah.

00:57:43.520 I mean, I'm going to cede your point that it would have been better.

00:57:47.580 Pelosi just went over there and brought her husband so she could buy he could buy Taiwanese stocks while we cannot take it. 0.97

00:57:57.120 But we cannot take a hit by backing out now.

00:58:01.480 I just I think that would send the wrong message.

00:58:04.040 And the other message you can't send is that Mr. Pelosi can't rent a car in Taiwan.

00:58:14.600 OK, I'm back with Bill O'Reilly with a question on a news story that just came out today that I think he's uniquely qualified to enter.

00:58:23.200 And I want to ask him in 60 seconds.

00:58:26.060 First, I would say when I die, I'd be able to go peacefully knowing that my children have inherited.

00:58:32.220 Just like I had and just like those like me, a country that will remain free, you know, until Jesus comes in another 10 to 30 years.

00:58:43.180 Anyway, but we have for that to happen.

00:58:46.800 We have to have our history and it has to be locked in solidly with our children.

00:58:53.920 And freedom rests on a knife edge.

00:58:56.400 And the only way that each successive generation can hold on to it and and and live a free life and and live the the will and the the choices that God gave them is that they have to understand and learn from the past.

00:59:15.000 No joke.

00:59:15.920 Not kidding.

00:59:17.220 This isn't hyperbole.

00:59:18.420 We stand close, very close, closest in my lifetime to losing everything.

00:59:24.120 So please check out a new book for me.

00:59:26.460 America's history.

00:59:28.140 I need you to look at it.

00:59:30.320 And if you have children, grandchildren, if you live next door to children, if you just want to give free stuff to children, not by pulling up in the sidewalk and saying, hey, kid, want a history book?

00:59:41.460 But I mean, we have to do everything we can to get true history into their hands.

00:59:47.640 Tuttle Twins Beck has a new history.

00:59:50.500 It's called American History.

00:59:52.640 America's history.

00:59:53.740 You can preview a few free sample of the chapter so you can see for yourself why it's needed.

00:59:59.000 It's crucial in the here and now.

01:00:00.820 It does not center around the dates and the memorization of names.

01:00:05.980 Instead, it takes you through our history and shows you the ideas and the challenges and the mistakes that we made.

01:00:13.820 It is a story.

01:00:16.940 And understanding the story will help you decide what we should be doing in the future.

01:00:23.860 So I want you to go right now to the Tuttle Twins.

01:00:27.080 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

01:00:28.940 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

01:00:30.580 You can get the book and the audio version America's history, America's history at Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

01:00:38.020 Ten seconds.

01:00:38.600 Station I.

01:00:39.040 D.

01:00:39.140 Bill, as a as a former teacher of high school kids and as a guy who really is a linguist and a guy who uses the language and knows the importance of words.

01:01:09.140 There is a story that comes out today that the AP style guide is now adopting the LGBTQ two plus I ideology and they are.

01:01:25.920 You can no longer use the word transgender.

01:01:28.200 It's instead a person whose gender identity does not match their sex assigned at birth.

01:01:34.780 They are saying now you have to avoid terms like biological sex, male or female hormones or sex change.

01:01:42.940 And I want to ask you, we are redefining all these words, but more importantly, something like the AP style guide.

01:01:52.860 Can you tell me why that's so important to America?

01:01:58.220 If they change things, what else do they change?

01:02:01.760 Well, look, the Associated Press is a woke liberal organization.

01:02:08.320 Everyone with a brain knows that.

01:02:11.720 Unfortunately, it is widely distributed to the smaller newspapers all over the country.

01:02:17.700 And people don't know what really the Associated Press is.

01:02:20.960 They just read the headline.

01:02:22.060 And if they want to read the article, they read it.

01:02:24.100 But it comes from point of view.

01:02:25.820 The Associated Press is not a news agency anymore in the sense that it looks for the truth or it wants to present what's really happening in this country.

01:02:34.820 Look, I taught high school, as you pointed out, and I felt very sorry for the gay kids and the kids who didn't have a very strong gender identity because they were bullied and kicked around.

01:02:47.500 And I protected them as much as I could while I was teaching.

01:02:51.660 And I know what a terrible, terrible problem that is.

01:02:55.680 And I think all Americans should understand that we need to protect these people.

01:03:02.580 But all people and all people.

01:03:05.460 Yes, but particularly vulnerable people, overweight people.

01:03:10.200 And I'm talking about, you know, I know what I think.

01:03:15.340 Yeah.

01:03:15.920 I mean, I just think that kids are so mean.

01:03:20.540 I've got two high school kids.

01:03:21.800 And what happens, they come home and tell me stories and they're just so mean.

01:03:26.860 That's always been that way.

01:03:28.140 But we have to make sure that we are paying attention to everyone and especially the bad cases like it has been in the past for homosexuals.

01:03:38.080 I'm not sure that it is that way anymore.

01:03:39.860 I think it's become cool to be something different.

01:03:43.500 Bill, I'm sorry, we're out of time, but thank you so much for joining us today.

01:03:48.800 Bill O'Reilly.

01:03:49.780 You can find him at Bill O'Reilly dot com.

01:03:52.520 Bill O'Reilly dot com.

01:03:54.180 Make sure you don't miss the no spin news.

01:03:59.180 Back in a minute.

01:03:59.960 The Glenn Beck program.

01:04:06.620 If you've been listening to me for some time or watching me for any length of time, one of the things you probably know about me is I believe that good people, I believe that individuals can make a difference in the world.

01:04:15.500 And if if we just do what we're supposed to do, that collectively changes everything.

01:04:23.500 And it might seem like it's too small to make a difference, that you're too small to make a difference.

01:04:28.460 But the results are gigantic on the other side.

01:04:31.840 If you haven't heard of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, I want you to take a look at that today.

01:04:37.000 Just don't take my word for it, but I want you to actually look at them, look at their charitable rating, et cetera, et cetera.

01:04:43.680 This is, I think, one of the greatest charitable organizations we have in this country.

01:04:49.080 They've been helping since 9-11, first responders, and then they started helping veterans and their families.

01:04:55.320 When somebody doesn't come home or they're severely injured, Tunnel to Towers is there.

01:05:01.120 They pay the mortgages, build smart homes for heroes who need them.

01:05:05.100 Their service is desperately needed in the community of those whom we should and do honor most in society.

01:05:13.680 I'm asking you today to donate $11 a month at T2T.org.

01:05:17.840 That's T, the number 2T, dot org.

01:05:20.420 Next week, I'm going to be speaking at CPAC.

01:05:36.980 I'm the, well, I thought I was the closing speaker on Saturday, which is the position I really like because everybody's so beat and tired.

01:05:45.480 I can just say whatever I want and let it all fly.

01:05:49.740 And so I was going to be the last speaker.

01:05:52.620 I found out last night I am now the warm-up act for the last speaker, which is President Donald Trump at CPAC.

01:06:00.880 So no one's going to care about anything that you say.

01:06:02.780 Correct.

01:06:04.800 Now I could just get up there and go, and they won't care.

01:06:10.600 As long as you stay on time.

01:06:12.580 Yeah, as long as I stay on time.

01:06:14.300 And they'll all be looking at their watch the whole time going, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.

01:06:17.740 We want to hear Trump.

01:06:19.420 So that is next week, CPAC, Dallas.

01:06:22.280 Let me go to Michael Malice, who I think Abraham Lincoln saw coming a long, long time ago with Malice Toward None.

01:06:31.300 And that makes me a little nervous that he's on the program, but I like him anyway.

01:06:35.160 He is the host of Your Welcome, a great podcast, the author of the Anarchist Handbook, Michael Malice.

01:06:43.900 Welcome, Michael.

01:06:44.520 How are you?

01:06:45.500 Well, Abraham Lincoln wasn't really good at seeing things coming, if you know what I'm saying.

01:06:50.460 Oh, my gosh.

01:06:51.720 Oh, my.

01:06:53.060 Too soon?

01:06:54.060 Too soon?

01:06:57.940 So, Michael, I just wanted to get your quick comments on what happened recently.

01:07:06.580 Filipinos are quite upset because some woke progressives have decided to change Filipino.

01:07:15.460 It's much better to call them Filipinks. 1.00

01:07:18.380 And apparently, they don't like that that much.

01:07:24.260 Well, are we sure you're pronouncing it correctly?

01:07:27.740 I mean, I don't speak Tagalog, so I'm not sure, you know, how.

01:07:30.840 Because I was corrected.

01:07:32.340 It's not Latinx.

01:07:33.400 I think it's Latinx.

01:07:34.300 But this is really a white people.

01:07:37.120 This is a white people thing. 0.54

01:07:39.080 This is white people going to college.

01:07:40.740 Yes, yes.

01:07:41.160 And then people who are, you know, Asian Pacific ancestry going to college and acting like white people.

01:07:47.400 This is nonsensical.

01:07:49.960 And it's also, there was this attempt to create this AAPL, Asian American Pacific, I don't know what the L stands for, coalition, where you had people like Tammy Duckworth, who I believe is of Asian descent, and basically have this lie that Chinese and Japanese and people from India and people from the Philippines and Laos, they're all interchangeable.

01:08:14.780 They should all vote and, you know, act the same, even though for millennia, they've been at war.

01:08:21.460 And to this day, many of these countries, despite each other, you know, I was, I used to live in Brooklyn until I escaped last August.

01:08:27.820 And I was at a dinner party a few years ago, and it turned out everyone was from a different country, their families.

01:08:33.980 So me being me, we went around the table and said, who did our ancestors hate?

01:08:39.060 And someone said, well, we didn't hate anyone.

01:08:41.620 And I said, well, who were your neighbors?

01:08:43.940 Come on.

01:08:45.220 No, no.

01:08:45.620 I said, who were your neighbors?

01:08:46.720 And she goes, oh, we didn't hate them.

01:08:48.160 We thought they were dumb.

01:08:49.720 So, but this is just, but this is a complete American university fantasy that people based on geography are somehow can be, even look at America itself.

01:09:04.360 You had the North and the South. 0.58

01:09:05.780 They were neighbors.

01:09:06.720 They tried to kill each other.

01:09:08.060 So it's really, we have to laugh, but it's a very cynical and disingenuous attempt to have this kind of intersectionality, which is just.

01:09:19.100 And quite frankly, it is the most racist thing as well.

01:09:25.140 I mean, when, when you have a, because it is, it's a group of white people who think they know better and they can be the defenders and say, you know, Filipino is racist.

01:09:36.320 So the Filipinos are like, what? 0.96

01:09:37.820 You're going to be called Filipinks from here on out. 0.99

01:09:41.460 I mean, there's another more racist.

01:09:43.540 But this is where American imperialism kind of started with McKinley in the Philippines and Taft, I think, was governor of the Philippines.

01:09:51.100 And progressivism is domesticate imperialism.

01:09:55.440 They ran out of other countries to invade because that became taboo.

01:09:58.840 And now you have to have New York City, L.A. and Washington basically invade and govern who they regard in America as their inferiors.

01:10:07.580 And it's usually rural whites, and it's also people who aren't following the progressive agenda.

01:10:14.140 And the thing is, it's become so transparent that it just necessitates eye rolls and they're just grasping at straws, especially as you've seen with the election of Congresswoman Flores, who was the first Mexican-born congresswoman.

01:10:29.400 You know, the Hispanics are jumping off this train. 1.00

01:10:31.400 They're like, what are you, what are you talking about?

01:10:33.880 I know, I know.

01:10:35.060 You don't mean Hispanics, you mean Latinx.

01:10:37.580 By the way, I wanted to bring something up.

01:10:41.020 These are the headlines from today.

01:10:42.740 Lawsuit alleges CDC colluding with big tech to censor speech.

01:10:48.620 Internal documents, next story, internal documents reveal CDC worked with big tech to censor COVID-19 speech.

01:10:56.780 Next one, Twitter accounts suspended for COVID-19 misinformation have increased over 70%.

01:11:04.780 They're not done yet.

01:11:05.740 Twitter is now blocking links to some sub-stack pages because of COVID, the CCP, and Hunter Biden.

01:11:14.120 And Wikipedia suspends edits to its recession page after woke users changed the definition of Biden's.

01:11:21.180 That's the only one that is right.

01:11:22.680 But I think there's a class action suit, isn't there?

01:11:25.800 I mean, anyone who has been banned or been silenced on the social media pages, that is government now.

01:11:35.780 We know we have the evidence through documents.

01:11:38.580 That is collusion, a public-private partnership.

01:11:42.040 So that is the First Amendment.

01:11:44.700 Companies can do it.

01:11:46.220 But when working with the federal government, they cannot.

01:11:49.020 I disagree, and we can go back to kind of Wilson again, because I think it's unacceptable and outrageous, don't get me wrong. 0.85

01:12:00.220 But in terms of a lawsuit, I'm sure in their terms of service, they all say, we can boot you off at any time for any reason whatsoever.

01:12:07.880 So to try to kind of demonstrate that you don't have the right to do this, I think it's going to be very hard to prove.

01:12:15.580 I think Twitter can very easily claim, well, this was in consultation with the government, but we're the ones who made the decision.

01:12:22.580 And I think the heavy-handedness, you know, they would like us to memory hold this, but the heavy-handedness with which they censored people,

01:12:31.840 including the New York Post right before the election, Glenn, as you remember, when they were reporting on Hunter's laptop and 50 intelligence agents who had no accountability for lying,

01:12:44.320 because they said that they were all the symbols, classic symbols of Russian disinformation, which they still never said what those were.

01:12:50.900 And there clearly weren't none, because this was just a crackhead laptop.

01:12:54.860 I think the idea that the law is going to hold these agents, giant corporations, accountable, the law works in their favor.

01:13:04.400 That's how our system has worked.

01:13:05.640 I know.

01:13:06.740 Well, but I don't, my lawsuit really is not against these corporations as much as it is against the government,

01:13:16.660 because the government is supposed to never get involved in that.

01:13:22.680 And they have just found, through public-private partnerships, a way around the Constitution.

01:13:28.260 They just get into bed with these corporations, and then they highly suggest, you know, we can help you or not help you.

01:13:37.460 And they can highly suggest and really pressure these companies to do this.

01:13:42.360 Or these companies might even be inclined to do it themselves.

01:13:45.640 But the government has no place into being the arbiter of truth and speech.

01:13:53.060 No place.

01:13:54.600 But, Glenn, the government, the First Amendment also guarantees the right of citizens to peaceably assemble.

01:14:00.800 And if you try to do a lawsuit that's saying, I wanted to go to my mother's funeral or visit her in the hospital,

01:14:06.720 and I was blocked because of these quarantines, you'd be laughed at to your face.

01:14:10.740 So, yeah, it's supposed to work in a certain way, but in practice, I don't think these judges,

01:14:16.580 even fairly conservative judges, are going to give this the time of day whatsoever.

01:14:24.800 One other thing, let me hit here before we have to go.

01:14:28.540 Germany is cutting off hot water and electricity.

01:14:31.520 This is something Donald Trump said just recently.

01:14:34.020 Ronald Reagan said it years ago.

01:14:35.840 Don't do it.

01:14:36.680 Don't get in bed.

01:14:37.660 With Russia, they'll hold you hostage. 0.60

01:14:39.380 And here they are.

01:14:41.240 What do you think this means for stability in the future of our world?

01:14:48.420 It's not just getting in bed with Russia. 0.56

01:14:50.400 Germany has, in the very last election, gone from having a two-major party system to having a three-major party system.

01:14:58.320 The Greens have achieved parity with the Social Democrats, which have, historically, since World War II, been the center-left party in Germany.

01:15:06.180 And now that the Greens are in power, this is the kind of thing that happens.

01:15:10.840 When you want to have, you know, not be dependent on things like gas or whatever, you're going to have problems producing electricity.

01:15:20.480 You're going to have problems producing energy.

01:15:22.800 And they're cutting the water supply.

01:15:25.900 They're having gas reductions.

01:15:27.480 Public buildings won't have heatings from April to September.

01:15:31.140 They're banning—this is in the city of Hanover.

01:15:34.160 They're banning air conditioners, heaters, and radiators for people in their homes.

01:15:39.040 And, you know, this is what the German people voted for.

01:15:42.580 So even if—when things are resolved with Putin, and hopefully that's as quickly as possible, this is going to continue to be a problem.

01:15:49.940 And that Green New Deal, which is not going away, which is just on pause, people should be very concerned about what that's going to look like in practice here.

01:15:57.500 You know, I was just watching this guy who is—he's got the hydrogen house. 1.00

01:16:06.120 He used to work for NASA, and he makes hydrogen from solar power.

01:16:10.220 And I have been a big believer in hydrogen for a long time.

01:16:13.920 It doesn't cause a water shortage.

01:16:16.040 You have to make hydrogen from water.

01:16:17.780 You actually get more water from hydrogen than you put into it, believe it or not.

01:16:23.160 Um, and, uh, it's 100% clean energy, and you can make it with solar energy.

01:16:29.740 It is the answer.

01:16:31.240 And I thought, you know, people could solve this problem if we were allowed to really, truly invent and do the things that we believe in.

01:16:43.520 There'd be a lot of mistakes.

01:16:44.660 But, you know, I was thinking, you know what, maybe I should call this guy and see if I can build a hydrogen, you know, plant myself, because he's made it for his house.

01:16:57.020 And you can power everything.

01:16:59.200 And I thought, well, no, because, you know, the government is eventually going to say that I'm committing some crime because of it, because they'll deem hydrogen is whatever the problem is.

01:17:11.260 And that's our real problem.

01:17:12.800 Government is the problem.

01:17:15.560 Uh, well, you're talking to an anarchist, so I could not agree with you more.

01:17:19.020 I know, I know.

01:17:19.720 Again, if carbon dioxide, they're trying to regulate that as a pollutant, which is something that every plant produces, um, it, at a certain point, their use of language is simply a mechanism to have power and not, they don't use language to, uh, uh, inform, they use it to manipulate.

01:17:36.200 So I agree with you completely.

01:17:37.600 Like, there's no way that if you're trying to create an energy plant of any kind, you're not going to be subject to nightmarish regulations and possibly felonies.

01:17:46.600 Yeah, exactly.

01:17:49.480 It's exactly right.

01:17:51.880 And it's, uh, I mean, it's the same story over and over and over again.

01:17:57.080 And something's got to change and I have a feeling with great pain will come great change.

01:18:02.240 And hopefully it will be positive change if we all keep our heads.

01:18:05.940 Michael, thank you so much for being on with us.

01:18:07.840 It's, uh, Michael Malice.

01:18:08.960 He's the author of the anarchist handbook and the host of your welcome.

01:18:12.860 Did you have something else you wanted to say, Michael, or are you just disrupting because you're an anarchist?

01:18:17.520 No, I, I, I, you just said thank you.

01:18:19.680 So I was going to say thank you.

01:18:20.900 So have a great weekend, everyone.

01:18:33.900 I own several small businesses.

01:18:35.560 And one of the things I love best about owning a business is what it can actually do in helping people.

01:18:42.560 Um, that is what a real capitalist is all about.

01:18:45.560 A real capitalist spends his time.

01:18:48.340 How can I make people's life easier?

01:18:51.980 And unfortunately, so many people are like, well, I just,

01:18:55.160 how about if I put porn on the internet?

01:18:57.820 Okay.

01:19:02.980 Um, real estate, uh, has been around forever and finding a real estate agent.

01:19:09.140 We're, we're, we're never educated on what does it take to be a real good agent?

01:19:13.800 We just think one who sells the most houses.

01:19:16.700 Well, not necessarily.

01:19:18.980 Um, it is somebody who sells a lot of houses, but because of the system that they use,

01:19:24.140 what is the experience like, how, how much money did they save the, the buyer or the seller?

01:19:31.060 Um, and how quickly can they sell a house?

01:19:34.740 There's lots of things.

01:19:36.240 The agents we work with are the best of the best.

01:19:39.540 They're the top sellers in the field.

01:19:41.180 Uh, they're going to steer you in the right direction.

01:20:26.880 Hello, America, by the way, if you missed any of the show today, part two of my debunking

01:20:47.800 of CNN's ridiculous trash piece on white Christian nationalists, uh, where they, they claimed it

01:20:56.000 is a story that trended all week on Twitter.

01:20:58.780 Um, it, uh, it, it claimed that all Christian pastors, uh, are, are white Christian nationalists,

01:21:07.820 uh, that just, you know, are, are looking to displace anyone of any other color other than 0.77

01:21:14.000 white and put Jesus as president of the United States. 0.81

01:21:17.340 Uh, and, uh, I debunked it, uh, and it, uh, has nine pages of footnotes and I've made it

01:21:24.840 available on my, uh, website.

01:21:27.700 It is, uh, at blaze.

01:24:15.100 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:34.960 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:24:38.000 If you like great action thrillers, uh, there is a book called the terminal list.

01:24:47.300 It's a series really, really great.

01:24:50.300 Uh, and a new series now on, uh, Amazon prime.

01:24:55.720 It's the adaptation of the terminal list.

01:24:58.300 It has Chris Pratt in it.

01:25:00.000 If you haven't seen it yet, it's excellent.

01:25:02.760 Uh, I read the book after reading or after watching the series.

01:25:07.760 And I think the book is better.

01:25:09.280 It usually is, but the series is really great as well.

01:25:13.360 The guy behind it is Jack Carr.

01:25:16.380 He used to be a Navy seal, uh, led special operation teams as a team leader and platoon commander and troop

01:25:23.620 commander.

01:25:24.160 Uh, you know, uh, you know, he's, he has walked the walk.

01:25:28.780 He knows what he's talking about when it comes to world events.

01:25:31.860 I want to talk to him a little bit about the terminal list and also where he got so far in

01:25:37.960 advance.

01:25:38.580 It's the, the deep state, uh, plot line in the terminal list.

01:25:44.340 We talked to author Jack Carr in 60 seconds.

01:25:52.880 Don't know if you heard it or not, but there is a recession going on.

01:27:04.440 It is a thrill.

01:27:06.100 I've been looking forward to this for weeks now.

01:27:08.080 Jack Carr, welcome to the program.

01:27:10.080 How are you, sir?

01:27:11.680 Oh, thank you so much.

01:27:12.800 I sincerely appreciate you having me on.

01:27:14.580 It's been, uh, since we last spoke.

01:27:18.560 It is crazy.

01:27:20.580 What's going on, isn't it?

01:27:23.200 It is both in the world.

01:27:24.700 And then, uh, in, uh, I guess in, on my journey here with the show and the books and everything

01:27:29.840 else, it's gotten, uh, it's gotten fairly, I feel, uh, incredibly fortunate.

01:27:34.580 Yeah, well, you are, and you are, uh, it's, I mean, it's your hard work and your storylines.

01:27:41.840 Uh, when you, when you got a call or did you pitch, um, uh, Amazon prime and, and Chris

01:27:49.060 Pratt signed on, how'd you feel?

01:27:52.900 Yeah.

01:27:53.420 So it came about in a strange way that I am told is not the typical Hollywood story in,

01:27:58.200 uh, that I wrote it first, got it to Simon and Schuster.

01:28:01.040 They loved it.

01:28:01.860 We got a two book deal in place.

01:28:03.720 And before the book even comes out, I get a call from a seal buddy who I hadn't spoken

01:28:07.700 to in five years.

01:28:09.140 And he calls me and he says, Hey, do you remember me?

01:28:12.120 And I said, yes, I remember you.

01:28:13.440 And he said, do you remember what you did for me in the seal teams?

01:28:16.020 And I said, Nope.

01:28:17.100 And he said, you were the only person that as I was getting out of the military, sat

01:28:20.720 me down, talked me through transitioning into the private sector.

01:28:23.880 You introduced me to people outside the military that you followed up with me to see how I was

01:28:27.920 doing.

01:28:28.640 Nobody else did that.

01:28:29.740 I always wanted to thank you.

01:28:31.220 And I said, no problem.

01:28:32.700 How's it going?

01:28:33.220 Um, and he said, well, it's going great, but, uh, I heard you have a book coming out.

01:28:36.880 And of course I said, yep, it's coming out in a few months.

01:28:39.040 I can send you an early galley copy if you'd like.

01:28:41.380 And he said, I'd like that, but I'd like to give it to a friend of mine.

01:28:43.820 And I asked him who that was.

01:28:45.100 And he said, Chris Pratt.

01:28:46.380 And I thought, wow, that's convenient because as I was writing this thing, I thought of

01:28:51.140 Chris Pratt playing the main role.

01:28:53.280 And I thought of that before his rise to a list prominence before guardians of the galaxy,

01:28:59.080 before Avengers, before Jurassic world.

01:29:01.140 Cause I saw him as lovable Andy Dwyer on parks and rec.

01:29:04.960 And then I saw this transformation into a steel operator for zero dark thirties.

01:29:09.180 So I saw that transformation and I knew that he hadn't done anything like this yet before.

01:29:13.460 And I thought this is an actor that needs to take a risk and do something like this.

01:29:17.300 And I think I had read somewhere that maybe he leans to the more patriotic side of things,

01:29:22.260 which is a little different for me in Hollywood.

01:29:24.340 So I thought this is the right guy to bring this story to life.

01:29:28.260 And so my friend Jared Shaw, who also is now a producer on the show, technical advisor,

01:29:32.140 and plays boozer in the show, he gave it to Chris.

01:29:34.680 Chris read it.

01:29:35.420 He read it the last week in December of 2017, called the first week in January, 2018, wanting to option it.

01:29:41.280 So off we went to the races.

01:29:43.620 He's a great guy, isn't he?

01:29:45.560 He's a great guy.

01:29:47.120 He is.

01:29:47.800 He is.

01:29:48.140 He's a normal guy.

01:29:48.980 Somebody you'd want to sit down and have a beer with, have a coffee with.

01:29:51.520 And he brought this energy to the set that was so encouraging and so inspirational each

01:29:57.000 and every day, bringing his A game, which really filtered across all 350 people working

01:30:01.740 on that set.

01:30:02.720 And I had so many people come up to me and say that they had been on hundreds of Hollywood

01:30:06.580 sets and none of them had felt like this.

01:30:09.780 And that's all due to Chris Pratt, the director up there at the top, being so encouraging and

01:30:14.200 positive and just creating this environment that made everybody want to bring their A game

01:30:18.580 every single day.

01:30:19.480 So it was a, it was a thrill to see it brought to life.

01:30:22.900 So let me ask you a question as a writer, James Reese, the Chris Pratt character finds

01:30:27.300 himself in the middle of this conspiracy.

01:30:31.380 And it was a lot of us would call it the deep, the deep state.

01:30:36.960 And it involves high members of the government, the DOD and private corporations, pharmaceutical

01:30:41.820 companies.

01:30:42.460 What gave you that idea in, I think you wrote this in 2018.

01:30:48.540 So it was before the deep state was really talked about openly.

01:30:53.980 Where did that come from?

01:30:55.320 So it came out in 2018, but I started writing it in December of 2014.

01:31:01.700 So that's my paper for the first time, but I'd always been drawn to conspiracies, thrillers

01:31:08.320 my whole life.

01:31:08.880 I've been a fan of the thriller genre, also of movies and television shows that had that

01:31:13.400 theme, that conspiratorial element, but also that underdog who the system is just stacked

01:31:19.060 against, who rises up and crushes his enemies.

01:31:22.360 And I wanted a character, a modern day character who would go into battle thinking he was already

01:31:27.000 dead.

01:31:27.440 So he was free from societal norms and laws, and he could just uncover this conspiracy

01:31:32.240 and essentially become the insurgent that he'd been fighting for the previous, if it

01:31:37.080 came up now, 20 plus years, and bring those home to the front doorsteps of people who have

01:31:42.180 been sending young men, women to their deaths for 20 plus years.

01:31:45.980 So, but I really got, I went back and I looked at the church hearings, I really looked at

01:31:50.760 the end of World War II and the shift that occurred at the end of World War II, and people

01:31:55.200 should go back and listen to Dwight Eisenhower's speech, not just the one line that everyone

01:31:59.080 always talks about, but the entire speech.

01:32:00.980 And then look at what was happening in the defense establishment and the intelligence establishment,

01:32:04.980 and then what happened in the 50s and the 60s and the 70s, and then what was outed during

01:32:11.560 the church hearings in the mid-70s.

01:32:13.480 Exactly.

01:32:14.280 Exactly.

01:32:14.680 Because what happened in the church hearings, yes, a lot of abuses by the federal government

01:32:17.960 were exposed, but what do people like that do then?

01:32:21.180 Well, they adapt.

01:32:22.580 And so that adaptation has been occurring ever since the church hearings.

01:32:25.820 And so I wanted to really look into that and then create a character that could go and

01:32:30.140 take those people off the battlefield.

01:32:31.660 So I have read many very, very wise people from Washington or who watch Washington, and there

01:32:43.300 is a problem with our intelligence community.

01:32:45.400 They're now starting to say it's almost a fourth branch of government, and it silos everything

01:32:52.260 and tells the leaders what they want them to know and silo different branches of the government,

01:32:58.680 et cetera, et cetera.

01:32:59.340 And they're running things.

01:33:01.400 This is the conjecture that they're actually running things.

01:33:05.380 Is it possible to reign these intelligence agencies and the DOJ and State Department?

01:33:14.820 Is it possible to reel them back in?

01:33:18.300 That is the real question.

01:33:20.100 And, you know, they are gigantic bureaucracies with unelected officials that are in place

01:33:25.460 that can just wait out any politicians that get elected that do attempt to make changes.

01:33:30.280 So there are such large bureaucracies, I am not sure.

01:33:34.460 And that's the real question.

01:33:36.060 That's what I explore really in these novels as well.

01:33:38.520 But what's so sad, especially to the citizenry, is that these institutions have been so politicized

01:33:44.460 that it's to the detriment of us as the voters, as citizens.

01:33:50.140 And now you have institutions that benefit from our division.

01:33:56.840 Mainly, I'm talking about, obviously, a political class and tech and the tech oligarchy.

01:34:03.100 And we're walking right into this ambush.

01:34:05.400 It's like an L ambush of politicians and this tech monopoly.

01:34:10.340 And in we walk here as citizens.

01:34:12.880 And I'm not sure how we get out of that.

01:34:17.700 But they are the ones that directly benefit from this division.

01:34:22.040 And that includes these institutions that fall under those political classes that have all been politicized, obviously.

01:34:28.720 So how do we get out of that?

01:34:30.040 That's a question I like to explore in my novels.

01:34:34.000 But I don't know.

01:34:35.420 I try to remain hopeful publicly.

01:34:37.240 But at the end of the day, when I sit down with my wife on the couch and we talk about everything going on in the world,

01:34:40.880 it's sometimes difficult with everything going on out there.

01:34:43.860 I know.

01:34:44.580 I know.

01:34:44.960 So we're talking to Jack Carr, the author.

01:34:50.640 When we're looking at the world right now, I look at Ukraine, and it just doesn't feel right. 1.00

01:35:00.880 We're sending $60 billion over there.

01:35:03.800 Nobody's accounting for it.

01:35:06.740 It's a very dirty country as far as corruption.

01:35:11.380 Our leaders, really, I think, on both sides, but mainly on the Democrats, but Republicans are not entirely clean either,

01:35:19.760 have been, especially the Biden, has been laundering money, in my opinion, and I think the evidence is pretty strong, over in Ukraine.

01:35:29.820 And it feels like, I don't know, it just feels like the world wants this war to reset everything.

01:35:37.040 How do you feel about Ukraine and where we're going?

01:35:42.520 Yeah, so anytime I see anything these days in the news or anything pop up online, I ask myself, what action do they want me to take?

01:35:51.560 How am I being manipulated?

01:35:53.200 And that's maybe a cynical way to look at it, but with so many inputs out there today, so many more than were out there 30 years ago,

01:36:00.880 obviously, 50 years ago, you have to ask yourself, how am I being manipulated?

01:36:05.000 What action do these people want me to take?

01:36:07.560 And then look at it through that lens.

01:36:09.740 In my second novel, True Believer, everything is speeding towards a Russian invasion of Ukraine,

01:36:15.120 which is causing some issues with the second season of The Terminal List, if we get one,

01:36:19.920 because now we can't have that plot line because it actually happened.

01:36:23.620 But when you see that happening, you have to ask the why, what lessons can we learn and apply going forward?

01:36:30.720 Did we possibly make mistakes along the way here that helped make this happen, essentially?

01:36:37.720 And then you can ask some other questions.

01:36:39.620 Some of my sources out there are saying, hey, we might want to look into investments that Putin made through relatives

01:36:46.940 and through friendly oligarchs in the days, weeks, months leading up to the invasion of Ukraine

01:36:53.220 and what those same people have done and invested since as far as shorting and futures and that sort of a thing.

01:37:00.760 So it's something that I'm looking into because it's quite possible that Putin got even wealthier after the invasion of Ukraine.

01:37:09.000 Oh, I'm sure he did.

01:37:09.640 I'm sure he did.

01:37:10.620 And everything being so interconnected at those high levels.

01:37:16.340 And we talked about those 50 intelligence officials that got on TV last fall

01:37:20.580 and told us all about Russian disinformation as it applied to the Biden family.

01:37:27.520 And what happened to those 50?

01:37:29.820 I think it was 50.

01:37:30.940 Well, nothing.

01:37:32.340 It's accountability that we have totally lost.

01:37:34.100 And that accountability, really, that loss of accountability goes back to the end of World War II, really 1947.

01:37:39.060 With the establishment of our intelligence agencies and the military industrial complex, as we understand it today.

01:37:46.260 But those were back in the beginnings there.

01:37:48.060 But up until that point, senior military leaders were held to account for their failures.

01:37:52.300 And for whatever reason, after World War II, that stopped happening.

01:37:56.500 George Marshall held military leaders accountable for what they did before World War II, during World War II.

01:38:01.960 And that's how we got the names that we can all recite today of those generals and admirals that led our victory.

01:38:06.940 And today, we have the exact opposite.

01:38:09.800 And what do we have now also?

01:38:11.200 Well, a recruiting problem for the military.

01:38:13.100 Why do we think that is?

01:38:14.200 Well, because no one has trust in those senior military leaders that are going to be sending young men and women off to war.

01:38:20.120 And so we've lost that trust.

01:38:21.640 That trust has been completely eroded.

01:38:23.140 And that is because of the lack of accountability at those senior levels.

01:38:25.840 Yeah, it's not that, I mean, you know, it's not even that I don't trust this commander in chief to know what the best thing to do is along with the leadership.

01:38:36.020 But it's also that they, I mean, I don't trust that they're fighting the right fights, that he will pick the right fights or fight the right fights in the right way and the righteous fights.

01:38:48.680 I mean, I just don't know what we stand for right now, and they're cleaning out the military, and so many people are leaving because of the vaccines, and then they're cleaning out the military, you know, doing a political purge.

01:39:03.320 It's just a very dangerous time.

01:39:06.240 It really is.

01:39:07.120 I mean, we're so divided.

01:39:08.440 We've been divided before, which gives me hope, because we did come back together after the Civil War.

01:39:13.000 So I do look at that case to give me a little bit of hope, but many cases were manipulated into that division by the very entities who directly benefit from it, those politicians and tech companies we talked about.

01:39:24.440 But it's so bad that if one side, and quote-unquote side, says that we need to secure our borders, the other side has to take the opposite position of that.

01:39:34.140 They can't possibly find any common ground with the other, quote-unquote, side.

01:39:39.220 We've lost all logic and common sense, and interestingly enough that George Marshall and Carl von Klausowitz both thought that common sense was the most important attribute of any leader, and we have completely lost that across our politics and our discourse in this country, unfortunately.

01:39:55.200 We're talking to Jack Carr, the author of The Terminal List, which is a book.

01:40:01.460 He's got a series out.

01:40:02.420 Number six is coming out here soon, and is also Amazon Prime's adaptation of the first book, The Terminal List, played by Chris Pratt.

01:40:13.180 Book and series absolutely worth watching.

01:40:16.880 Jack, can I ask you to hang on for one minute?

01:40:18.960 I've got to do a commercial.

01:40:20.320 I want to ask you about Taiwan and a second season of The Terminal List.

01:40:25.200 Can you hang on?

01:40:26.560 Absolutely.

01:40:28.380 Good.

01:40:29.080 Hang on.

01:41:43.940 AmericanFinancing.net.

01:41:45.600 10 seconds and back to Jack Carr.

01:41:47.660 Jack, thank you so much again for being on with us.

01:42:03.300 I just really enjoy our talks.

01:42:05.920 I really have been looking forward to this conversation for a couple of weeks.

01:42:10.480 Let me just ask you about Nancy Pelosi in Taiwan.

01:42:14.100 We normally will send people over to countries like that and then announce the trip after we leave so you don't put yourself in this situation.

01:42:25.620 Again, I don't know if it's incompetence or what, but we've been announcing it, haven't even announced a date.

01:42:33.000 And now China said in today's headline it is those who play with fire get burned, and they are really threatening us. 0.75

01:42:41.200 I don't think they have the capability at this time to go into Taiwan, but what do we do here, and how dangerous is this trip?

01:42:51.520 Well, China has always believed that Taiwan is just a province of China.

01:42:55.060 So a lot of this is back to us not being able to put ourselves in our enemies' shoes or our opponents' shoes, our adversaries' shoes, and look at the world through their perspective, and then make wise decisions based on that.

01:43:09.580 We keep looking at things through this Western lens.

01:43:11.740 We did it in Afghanistan.

01:43:12.760 We did it in Iraq.

01:43:13.780 We're doing it in Ukraine.

01:43:16.160 No matter how, there's a few different aspects to that as well.

01:43:21.140 But we've done it to China for the last 50 years, and we can't seem to get away from that. 1.00

01:43:27.960 We were very reactionary, and it's one of those places that we thought was just going to take care of itself.

01:43:36.860 And that's obviously not happened.

01:43:38.960 I mean, since the 70s, really, that's been the policy.

01:43:41.120 If you look all the way through the 80s, we just figure that the Taiwan-China situation will just, over time, things will settle down.

01:43:47.960 Everyone will kind of join to this new, this band of nations that realizes that capitalism and free markets are the way ahead and all that sort of thing.

01:43:57.860 So we just let it shimmer.

01:43:59.740 And now we have a situation that could turn into burning all of us.

01:44:04.320 But it's really because we can't look at things through our enemy's eyes.

01:44:07.380 And we look at things through a four-year type of eight years for the real deep thinkers among us, maybe, where they're thinking not just decades, but they're thinking a century ahead and making moves that put them in a position of dominance in the years ahead.

01:44:26.020 But they're not thinking of those election cycles.

01:44:27.900 One, because they don't have to, but they're not short-sighted.

01:44:31.220 We are the short-sighted ones, and we prove that time and time again to the detriment, really, not just of the United States, but of the world.

01:44:37.380 And we, this is totally, I mean, at least our enemies were our enemies for a long time.

01:44:43.640 We understood that, and we're still kind of moving in the same direction now.

01:44:49.900 We're just flip-flopping around every four years.

01:44:52.100 It's ridiculous.

01:44:53.300 Jack, I'm sorry, I'm out of time.

01:44:54.520 Is there going to be a second season terminal list?

01:44:57.920 That's the real question.

01:44:59.280 And you'll be one of the first to know if I get word.

01:45:03.320 All right.

01:45:04.000 I'm going to hold you to that.

01:45:05.520 All right.

01:45:29.620 We have hit it good and fast, and we have a whole contingent of the American public, mostly the press and the Democrats, who refuse to even acknowledge that we've crashed the car and we're in a ditch.

01:45:43.440 I don't think it's drawing too strong of an analogy to think that we are in the most dangerous times in our lifetime.

01:45:53.680 I mean, I was born in 64, so I missed the Cuban Missile Crisis.

01:45:57.320 But I think we are at those kinds of days where things could change in minutes.

01:46:53.300 Oh, man, there has been so many things that have gone on this week.

01:46:56.760 I wanted to bring Carol Roth on.

01:46:59.440 She is the author of The War on Small Business.

01:47:02.800 She is a former investment banker, and she speaks the language of the common man, and she cares more about Main Street than Wall Street.

01:47:11.220 She is here to try to help me make sense of what happened this week.

01:47:15.700 Hi, Carol.

01:47:16.180 How are you?

01:47:17.480 Hey, Glenn.

01:47:18.200 Great to be with you.

01:47:19.000 Happy Friday.

01:47:20.860 Thank you.

01:47:21.360 Happy Friday to you.

01:47:22.580 Okay, so I have several things I want to ask you.

01:47:24.280 So let's see if we can just tick these off here real quick, and then if you want to add something beyond this, I'd love to hear it.

01:47:32.860 We're two quarters now, two quarters of contraction.

01:47:37.980 They're trying to say that that's not a recession.

01:47:42.300 That is a recession, correct?

01:47:44.820 Glenn, I told you and your listeners about this months ago.

01:47:50.160 I predicted this is what's going to happen because the group that is charged with officially declaring recessions, the National Bureau of Economic Research, or NBER, gives themselves latitude intentionally.

01:48:04.260 Of course they're going to.

01:48:05.440 They can't have political spin.

01:48:07.240 They can't extract a fee.

01:48:08.880 If we can all just look at the data and go, oh, obviously this is a recession, despite all of that, we all in the financial media, in the economic predicting realm, everybody colloquially agrees that two quarters of economic contraction is a recession.

01:48:28.060 Because if you have something that doesn't have a definition, people can't understand it.

01:48:33.240 There's no way to create any policy around it.

01:48:35.700 You can't just have something that completely has no definition.

01:48:39.680 So, yes, there is latitude, and that is why I predicted, given that latitude, that they would do exactly what they are doing now.

01:48:49.560 So the other thing that happened this week, so we had the announcement, we are in a recession, no matter what the White House says.

01:48:55.820 And then the Fed increased the rate, 75 basis points.

01:49:02.120 So we're up to 2.225 or 2.5, right?

01:49:07.740 Yes.

01:49:09.280 And at what point does this become a stall of the engine?

01:49:17.720 Do we have any idea at what point it starts to get dangerous, or are we already there?

01:49:22.100 So if you believe the sort of economic theory that, you know, 2%-ish is the neutral rate, that if everything expands at 2% and the Fed funds rate, 2% is their target neutral rate, then we're just around neutral right now.

01:49:40.880 And it shouldn't be that much of a concern.

01:49:42.900 Frankly, we had an artificially depressed set of Fed funds rates for a variety of reasons.

01:49:48.340 And so bringing that back to a normalized level isn't that bad.

01:49:52.660 To get down the inflation that they have caused, they probably need to bring it up a little bit more.

01:50:00.360 But I do think that if we start seeing something that has what we fancy people call a 4-handle on it, where, you know, it's 4% or higher, gets out of the 3 range,

01:50:12.240 then that's when you're going to start really seeing people freaking out and having a major impact on the economy.

01:50:18.600 But is, I mean, I'm old enough to remember Volcker, and we had 18%, 19% interest rates.

01:50:26.060 And that was just from the inflation that we had Jimmy Carter.

01:50:30.040 It was nothing like this inflation.

01:50:32.060 How are we expected to bring inflation down with 2%, 4%, 5%, 10% inflation, or, I mean, 10% interest rates?

01:50:42.080 Well, here's the reality is that the Fed's tools aren't going to fix some of the issues.

01:50:47.700 I mean, we have a supply and demand imbalance.

01:50:50.600 So unless the Fed can stop printing money and start printing oil and printing food, they're not going to fix those areas.

01:50:58.400 The only thing they can do is completely jam up the economy so bad that we're in a massive recession, and then, you know, everybody's sort of hoarding their money.

01:51:06.160 And that's how those supply and demand metrics come together.

01:51:08.920 But they're really focused on the demand side, not the supply side.

01:51:13.220 What we need to be focused on is how do we get more supply in these key areas so that we balance out that from the supply side, not the demand side.

01:51:22.440 It's a Rudyard Kipling wrote a poem about 100 years ago, and the line that keeps coming to mind was, we had plenty of money, but nothing our money could buy.

01:51:33.680 So help me out.

01:51:35.520 We're trying.

01:51:36.100 We're fighting inflation.

01:51:37.640 We can't do it really effectively like Volcker did because it would just choke us to death.

01:51:43.280 And then Manchin comes in, and we change Build Back Better into something called the Inflation Reduction Act.

01:51:52.320 How can you spend an additional $700 billion and reduce inflation?

01:51:58.520 I, yeah, this is like, I might get a little aggro here.

01:52:02.920 This is making me so angry because we were going to throw a parade for Joe Manchin.

01:52:07.400 He was the one that stopped.

01:52:08.640 I know.

01:52:09.240 Build Back broke.

01:52:09.860 He was the one that saved us from even more inflation, taking inflation to hyperinflation.

01:52:14.960 Now, when we're all really happy about that and heaping praise upon him, he is backtracking.

01:52:22.080 And so they're like, we're going to go spend a bunch of money to fight inflation.

01:52:25.860 But the reality is Chuck Schumer came out and he said it.

01:52:28.840 This is Green New Deal light.

01:52:30.960 This is about spending more money on their climate hoax instead of fighting inflation.

01:52:35.840 He put it out there.

01:52:36.700 It's in a tweet on Twitter that I responded to.

01:52:38.740 They're saying the quiet part out loud.

01:52:40.960 They don't care.

01:52:42.380 This is what they're trying to do.

01:52:44.020 And this is why we have, Glenn, I'm calling it the Great Recession.

01:52:48.880 So a recession, the Great Recession was from the financial crisis.

01:52:53.020 This is from your wonderful book, The Great Reset.

01:52:55.320 This is the Great Recession.

01:52:56.900 This is intentional.

01:52:59.320 They are doing this to us on purpose.

01:53:01.080 Yeah, it is incredible that even John Kerry came out and said, we have to do this.

01:53:06.940 We're going to have to spend billions and if not trillions of dollars on this.

01:53:11.340 And that in the end will be anti-inflationary.

01:53:15.060 And it's like that doesn't even make any sense.

01:53:17.980 That's worse than Common Core math.

01:53:20.140 And they've been wrong on everything.

01:53:22.640 I mean, these are the people who told us there is no inflation.

01:53:25.580 They told us the way to fix crime was to defund the police.

01:53:29.340 They were wrong on COVID.

01:53:30.720 They've been wrong on everything, including the energy transition that's affecting us not

01:53:35.200 only here, but in Europe.

01:53:36.700 And now all of a sudden we're going to say, oh, you're going to know how to do this by

01:53:40.280 spending more money.

01:53:41.400 I mean, it is just basically Congress is just theater and money laundering at this point.

01:53:46.000 So correct me if I'm wrong.

01:53:48.400 Historically speaking, Volcker, when he made the tough decision, he made the tough decision

01:53:54.740 to hurt the American economy, to save the dollar and to save the world's reserve currency.

01:54:01.960 And so we had some credibility.

01:54:03.320 I have been worried ever since TARP that the world is going to despise us because we have

01:54:13.880 destroyed the currency, which is destroying the economies of everyone in the world, so

01:54:22.140 we can not suffer.

01:54:24.120 That's what we've been doing.

01:54:26.220 And when I heard Joe Biden say yesterday, well, inflation, but, you know, there's inflation

01:54:31.680 all over the world.

01:54:32.500 I thought, yes, because they hold our dollar.

01:54:37.700 Are we not causing the inflation in Germany and every place else?

01:54:42.280 Are we not the root of that problem?

01:54:45.660 I think the central bankers in Europe and Japan and some other areas can share some of the credit.

01:54:51.520 But here is the amazing thing.

01:54:53.220 And you're so spot on about Volcker.

01:54:55.680 You know, back when we really were this world's reserve currency and we had somebody like Volcker

01:55:00.420 who was trying to do the right thing.

01:55:02.120 We had a dilemma, the Triffin dilemma.

01:55:03.920 We've talked about this before, where you have to make a decision.

01:55:07.100 Do you make decisions based on keeping the world currency stable for the world or do you

01:55:12.660 make decisions based on what's right for the United States?

01:55:16.260 Incredibly, we have done neither.

01:55:18.980 We have destroyed the value of the dollar and the purchasing power here in the U.S.

01:55:23.820 And we've also created a horrible situation for everybody around the world.

01:55:28.080 So nobody's happy.

01:55:30.620 And so, yes, we're having an inflationary issue across the world.

01:55:33.920 And now because of all these other central banks and the strong dollar, we also have a

01:55:39.020 potential debt issue in the emerging markets because all of not only their commodities,

01:55:43.840 but their debt is dollar denominated.

01:55:48.640 Last thing I have on my list is we had some inflation numbers today, but it's not the CPI,

01:55:55.940 the Consumer Price Index, which is at 9.1, I think.

01:55:59.320 It's something else.

01:56:01.580 And I think it is.

01:56:04.680 Shoot, I had it written down.

01:56:06.400 The PC?

01:56:08.280 Employer Cost Index, I thought it was.

01:56:10.360 Employer Cost Index is what they're talking about.

01:56:13.100 What is that one?

01:56:15.200 So this is a subcomponent that's not really one of the core ways that they look at inflation.

01:56:21.000 It's more of an indicator that's stuck in the middle of other indicators.

01:56:24.980 But the ones that we're most focused on are the CPI, which is sort of the one that the

01:56:30.900 headline, the consumer is focused on.

01:56:32.980 The one that the Fed is most focused on is the PCE, which is the personal consumption

01:56:38.420 expenditures.

01:56:40.000 And that's a different read.

01:56:41.180 And no surprise that's much lower.

01:56:43.160 And hang on, hang on just a second.

01:56:45.520 That's the one that they're raising the interest rates and doing all these things to discourage

01:56:51.560 us from buying things, right?

01:56:53.880 They need us to slow down the velocity of money, correct?

01:56:58.760 I mean, I don't know what they're doing because they're trying to get us to, quote, unquote,

01:57:03.780 like you said, slow down the velocity of money, slow down our spending, cool demand.

01:57:08.000 But then the government's out sending money to everybody in the world and spending more.

01:57:13.520 So I honestly have no idea what they're doing.

01:57:16.880 But yes, theoretically, that's what they're doing.

01:57:19.380 But the PCE number is what the Fed is going to be focused on.

01:57:23.280 It is many percentage points lower than the CPI.

01:57:27.420 So as that comes down, you know, in tandem, you're not going to need to see the CPI at

01:57:33.040 three or four for them to feel like they've done what they need to do.

01:57:37.020 And this is the crazy thing.

01:57:38.420 The Wall Street Journal, they every month they go out and they interview economists.

01:57:43.180 More than half the economists think by the end of next year that the Fed is going to be

01:57:48.300 cutting rates again.

01:57:50.800 I know.

01:57:50.960 So this is the stance.

01:57:52.920 I thought that's insane.

01:57:54.960 It is.

01:57:55.880 This is all a game.

01:57:57.260 And they think that they know what they're doing.

01:57:59.980 But the reality of what they're doing is they're creating these boom and bust cycles that benefit

01:58:04.580 the wealthy and wealth connected that wash out the average investor and transfer wealth

01:58:10.280 from Main Street to Wall Street.

01:58:12.500 This is all that they're doing, and we have to stop them.

01:58:16.720 It is amazing.

01:58:18.160 I look at this chip thing that they spent, what, another $250 billion on.

01:58:23.520 That is corporate welfare.

01:58:25.260 So that is taking our tax dollars and giving it to these giant corporations.

01:58:30.080 I saw that, and I thought, all they're doing right now is impoverishing the little person,

01:58:36.740 the person on Main Street that's paying the taxes.

01:58:39.000 They're making it so we don't have any purchasing power.

01:58:42.780 We can't go anywhere because of the gas.

01:58:46.420 We can't do anything.

01:58:47.600 We'll start to lose our houses.

01:58:49.320 We'll start to default on our loans, on our cars.

01:58:52.200 They'll be fine with it.

01:58:54.040 And the government is now saying, I'm your consumer.

01:58:58.220 So you businesses, you do what I say because I'm going to be buying.

01:59:03.900 Isn't that what's happening?

01:59:05.760 Absolutely.

01:59:06.420 It's the barbelling of the classes.

01:59:09.040 You're going to have the complete hollowing out of the middle class and the working class. 1.00

01:59:14.560 And we've seen this throughout history before.

01:59:16.720 At the late stages of empires, this is what happens,

01:59:20.200 where you get that wealth that's concentrated in fewer and fewer hands,

01:59:24.340 and then you have everybody else who's poor and nobody else is in the middle.

01:59:28.220 And that's exactly was my reaction when I saw this.

01:59:31.000 I mean, not to say that we don't need to compete with China, 0.95

01:59:34.160 but these are very wealthy companies.

01:59:36.920 But you lessen the red tape.

01:59:38.560 Exactly.

01:59:38.920 Yes, you just lessen the red tape.

01:59:41.600 Thank you.

01:59:42.340 Thank you.

01:59:42.980 But yeah, they're just giving more corporate welfare.

01:59:46.400 And by the way, the Elizabeth Warrens in the world who stand up and say bad corporations, 0.95

01:59:51.300 they're all going along with this.

01:59:53.320 It's Bizarro World.

01:59:56.240 Carol, thank you so much.

02:00:10.340 And she's a writer and working on a new book that I'm very excited about.

02:00:15.680 You should announce that at some point.

02:00:18.400 But she also writes for TheBlaze.com and is a frequent guest on this program.

02:00:26.300 Thank you so much, Carol.

02:00:27.060 I appreciate it.

02:00:27.740 Have a wonderful weekend, Glenn.

02:00:30.860 Our sponsor, this half hour, is Patriot Mobile.

02:00:35.220 I'm going to ask you to go out on a limb.

02:00:37.100 Not a dangerous one, but an important one.

02:00:39.500 Both for your personal finances and for a bigger cause, our country.

02:00:43.280 I want you to check out Patriot Mobile and consider making the switch.

02:00:46.840 In fact, I want you to check it out.

02:00:48.640 And then if you find something you don't like, that's fine.

02:00:51.860 But I'm asking you to make the switch today.

02:00:55.240 This is a company that I don't just endorse, I admire.

02:00:58.300 I work with them on their charitable stuff.

02:01:01.680 They are in the same category that we are in.

02:01:05.440 They believe in the same things.

02:01:07.200 And they are putting their money and their effort where their mouth is.

02:01:11.140 First things first, they have to create a great mobile service.

02:01:15.000 So if you are with Verizon or whatever, you're going to find better prices, better packages,

02:01:21.780 something that will fit any budget.

02:01:24.180 You're going to get the same great service because they're on the same exact cell towers.

02:01:28.200 And you're going to get a company that is actually fighting for the things that we believe in.

02:01:37.660 We have to stop putting our money into companies that are either neutral or negative.

02:01:44.140 This one is positive on the Constitution.

02:02:32.680 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

02:02:35.260 Still, I've got a date night with my wife tonight.

02:02:37.580 Is there any new movie that is out?

02:02:41.040 Anything opening up this weekend or last weekend?

02:02:45.240 That's a good question.

02:02:46.220 I know there's a new documentary on Alex Jones that is out, which is getting a lot of buzz.

02:02:50.620 Okay.

02:02:51.080 No, not really.

02:02:52.180 It sounds like a date night movie.

02:02:53.740 Have you seen the Elvis movie?

02:02:56.320 I think we talked about this before.

02:02:57.680 Have you seen the Elvis movie?

02:02:58.580 I have not.

02:02:59.140 I'm worried it might be like the Elton John movie where they sing in it.

02:03:02.220 So I have to.

02:03:03.220 I can't watch it.

02:03:03.940 Okay.

02:03:04.500 No, but no, it's not a musical like that was kind of a musical where they just broke

02:03:09.460 out into song and stuff.

02:03:10.720 It's not that this is the story of Elvis and the guy who plays Elvis, he's Canadian and

02:03:16.640 he is positively Elvis.

02:03:19.240 You can listen to the soundtrack and some of the songs are Elvis.

02:03:22.860 Some of them are him.

02:03:23.620 And I, I challenge you to know which one is which.

02:03:26.700 Um, Lisa Marie Presley saw it and said, this is our story.

02:03:32.020 And she's like, it's creepy.

02:03:34.220 I'm watching him on the screen.

02:03:35.620 And she said a few times, I didn't know if that was old footage or new footage.

02:03:42.160 It's incredible.

02:03:44.400 And the story is great.

02:03:46.720 The story is great.

02:03:47.560 And it's not a musical.

02:03:49.320 You should check it out.

02:03:50.160 I think you'd like it.
