is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:00:56.700
Merry Christmas, it's a ho, ho, ho lot of dough.
00:01:01.340
In that omnibus bill, it's really an ominous bill.
00:01:05.220
We're going to talk about how monstrous this thing is today
00:01:07.920
and how much of a bad idea it's a really bad idea
00:01:31.580
Barkley in for back today on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:33.920
Appreciate you being here with us back after this.
00:01:50.140
and we don't really know what exactly is in science.
00:01:56.880
And you know, we've got to get this done right away.
00:02:10.240
Title 42, you're trying to inject it into the omnibus.
00:02:15.560
Yeah, Jason, with this 4,155-page bill, full of Democratic priorities, does nothing to protect the border.
00:02:22.240
Quite to the contrary, it contains language undermining border security.
00:02:25.800
So I insisted that we have at least one amendment, up or down vote, on whether to preserve Title 42.
00:02:32.500
Because Title 42 is the one thing standing between us and utter chaos.
00:02:37.660
This would bring us to utter chaos if it expires, which it's about to.
00:02:43.440
Chuck Schumer and the Democrats are terrified of an up or down vote.
00:02:47.480
Well, because they want absolute pandemonium and chaos on the border.
00:02:50.880
And they're terrified of this vote because they will lose, as they should lose.
00:02:56.560
You know, speaking of this craziness inside this bill.
00:03:00.880
You know, there's lots of money inside the bill.
00:03:09.760
So that it could actually hit a bit more money.
00:03:16.220
Everybody wants to get out and get back home for Christmas.
00:03:19.420
You know, we got a blizzard coming for Pete's sake and cross the country in multiple different areas.
00:03:29.220
A storm headed our way right in time for Christmas.
00:03:32.260
And we're going to be facing some of that where I'm at in West Michigan.
00:03:35.420
I'm broadcasting from WOD Radio in Grand Rapids.
00:03:38.300
You know, this is, you know, this is understandable.
00:03:42.400
But at the same time, you shouldn't these folks be camping out in D.C.
00:03:48.220
And, of course, why all of the smoke and mirrors making this thing happen fast and quickly?
00:03:56.140
Well, it's because they don't want you to know some of the things that are inside of it.
00:04:00.040
They don't want you to know that we don't know a lot of what is inside.
00:04:04.000
They got teams of people trying to read through this whole thing.
00:04:08.640
In fact, every time I get a chance to hear him say anything, talk about anything, I can listen to the guy talk about any subject.
00:04:21.160
Is this another instance of we'll find out after we pass it?
00:04:35.160
My staff and I, we are going through it right now, but it's 4,000 pages.
00:04:40.440
There was reporting last night, for example, that the bill contains, I think, $400 million to help Jordan, the country of Jordan, secure its border.
00:04:54.100
One could marshal a pretty persuasive argument that that's a pretty dumb thing to do.
00:05:01.220
So, wait a minute, $400 million to help the country of Jordan secure its border.
00:05:32.020
As a matter of fact, we've got a few of the heads up, a little bit of a tip on what exactly is inside this.
00:05:37.640
You want to know some of these things that are inside here?
00:05:41.520
Oh, there's money for all kinds of special interests.
00:05:47.160
Let me see if I can dig up some of the LGBTQIA+.
00:05:51.080
They describe it as, oh, there's all kinds of stuff in here.
00:05:56.900
Now there's money to save the turtles and the whales and all of that that you could imagine inside.
00:06:13.520
Put it on top of the stack that we've already spent.
00:06:29.040
Since Zelensky comes to Washington, and what did Mr. Zelensky have to say?
00:06:44.000
The Patriot missile system that we just ponied up.
00:07:11.500
Because there's no way I watched any of this live.
00:07:27.160
And if you're a parent or a grandparent, you probably have experienced this at one point.
00:07:32.800
I think I was probably even guilty of it as a kid at one point or another.
00:07:39.460
You, you, you put present after gift under that tree.
00:07:44.340
I mean, you, you, you just break your back to get that thing done for the kids.
00:07:53.220
You know, and then not that that's what it's about.
00:08:03.140
I mean, they get through that wrapping paper and they just one after the other.
00:08:08.240
They're laughing and they're having such a good time.
00:08:11.720
And they come and maybe they're even fighting over some of the presents.
00:08:21.480
Get to the end of the gifts and they go, wait, that's it.
00:08:29.820
Now you can, the boy kids, you know, whether they're spoiled or not, I know you can't blame
00:08:34.480
some of these kids, you know, they just don't necessarily.
00:08:37.860
But although he looked a bit like a child in his PJs and behind that podium, kind of think
00:08:48.420
Now I can say that because I'm not the tallest guy in the room, but Zelensky reminded me of
00:08:55.240
a kid, like a spoiled kid at Christmas yesterday.
00:09:02.820
Of course, that's man of the year or excuse me, person of the year from Time magazine.
00:09:12.100
Now, all of this money and look, I'm not rooting for I'm not rooting for Putin.
00:09:19.420
OK, I'm not I'm not a big fan of everything he's done.
00:09:25.080
Of course, I'm not a big, you know, a Russian fan.
00:09:30.380
I think average Americans looking around right now, having a hard time understanding as high
00:09:37.380
as inflation is what we're spending on everything just to put gas in the tank and groceries on
00:09:43.920
And of course, like I said, those presents under the tree, what what Americans are having
00:09:49.980
to do right now simultaneously as their border is I mean, we're it's wide open doors are wide
00:09:56.560
open. They'll argue with you about that all day long.
00:09:59.740
But these are people that don't even know what a woman is.
00:10:01.820
So you can't listen to them anyway, but they will argue about that all day long.
00:10:13.960
And the American people, I think at some point.
00:10:18.600
At some point, they look to all of this chaos, the shenanigans, all of the ridiculous
00:10:26.560
ridiculousness and they, I guess, kind of say enough is enough.
00:10:40.700
I have some family, in fact, grew up not too far right on the border.
00:10:47.040
But I wonder if the people in Kentucky are watching what's happening with Leader McConnell
00:10:54.560
I wonder if they're watching what's happening with Mitch McConnell, who just signs off on
00:10:58.980
In fact, saying, you know, our our biggest interest, our biggest interest right now in the Republican
00:11:15.120
I think that voted Republican in this last election.
00:11:19.320
Sat down and say, you know, I'm solely making this vote because of the way things are going
00:11:30.620
It's every single bit of the things that we face on a daily basis here at home.
00:11:36.620
We're in the middle of a crisis every day, new crises every day, one after the other.
00:11:42.880
And I just wonder, the American people, particularly the folks in Kentucky.
00:11:50.980
We're going to break down what actually the rest of the things that we do know in the
00:11:54.420
than the five thousand page, one point seven six trillion dollar bill.
00:12:00.140
By the by the way, I had somebody call my show the other day and explain, you know how
00:12:07.500
We'll break that down for you, too, because these are numbers that just get thrown around
00:12:13.080
Coming up in just a moment in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck program.
00:12:18.080
Here he is, McConnell, yesterday or the day before talking about the biggest, well, the
00:12:28.700
And of course, what we're all concerned about as Americans, Republicans specifically, it's
00:12:36.340
Making sure the Defense Department can deal with the major threats coming from Russia and
00:12:43.780
China, providing assistance for the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians.
00:12:51.300
That's the number one priority for the United States right now, according to most Republicans.
00:12:58.320
That's sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment.
00:13:11.900
One of the biggest problems we have in this country is that when folks go off to serve
00:13:19.420
in Washington, well, the first, first and foremost, I mean, they, they, they, they go,
00:13:26.820
they go basically, you know, average middle class, maybe even broken.
00:13:34.780
When they, by the time it's all said and done with, their, their net worth just exponentially
00:13:39.080
increases, I'm sure that's just a coincidence, but that is one of the, one of the problems.
00:13:46.720
The other is these people are so far detached from reality.
00:13:51.220
They wouldn't know if it, if it showed up and hit them in the face with a Ukrainian flag,
00:13:56.520
They would have no idea what the average American is thinking about.
00:14:06.320
I'm not saying that people shouldn't be helped over that.
00:14:08.660
I'm not saying we shouldn't be praying for the folks over in Ukraine that are definitely
00:14:12.900
said the actual people, not this cartoon character, this guy that comes, it's like he's in a movie.
00:14:19.560
You're coming to America, you can't put a suit on, you don't own a suit.
00:14:25.640
You're going to speak to the Congress, but you can't actually dress up, dress up like,
00:14:33.300
When you're watching Zelensky speak in Congress, like this is a guy, he's an actor.
00:14:47.240
He was standing in front of Congress begging for more money.
00:15:02.560
We got to get back to the old days where, look, you're not going to make a career out of it.
00:15:06.840
You're going to serve for a while and then you're coming back and you're done.
00:15:10.660
Whether that's term limits or we get to the ballot box and we actually term limits.
00:15:14.000
Folks in Kentucky, in the great state of Kentucky, how in the world do you elect on one hand Senator Rand Paul and on the other Senator Mitch McConnell?
00:15:29.360
What we saw last night, the standing, the applauding Mitch talking about how, you know, this is the biggest priority, Ukraine's border.
00:15:39.280
The number one priority for the United States right now, according to most Republicans.
00:15:45.500
That's sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment.
00:15:53.160
This shows, it's not the number one priority for Republicans.
00:15:59.940
Now you know why Mitch spent so much money against Republicans.
00:16:10.140
Now you know why the Senate is still under Democrat control.
00:16:15.700
Had a chance to take that thing back here in the last, in the midterms.
00:16:19.860
But you know, when you're, you're busy, you know, not sending money to Arizona where, where Blake Masters could have used a little hand here and there.
00:16:28.640
You know, just watching the choices financially of how they move this money around and who they choose to support.
00:16:33.860
That should tell us everything we need to know, shouldn't it?
00:16:49.280
You want a list of some of the things that were inside, at least what we know so far, what's inside of this monstrous, ominous, omnibus bill.
00:17:00.600
Well, this, this crazy blank check, basically, it is some of the most ridiculous, the spending on some of this stuff is, is, is got to be some of the most ridiculous items.
00:17:16.780
And that you're starting to see it come out now.
00:17:19.300
But again, these guys are just told you got to vote for it.
00:17:22.760
Rand Paul talked about this the other day when he brought the thing out, wheeled it out in a cart.
00:17:28.960
And then he says, yeah, we're, we're supposed to vote on it.
00:17:39.760
When was it produced in the dead of the night, 1 30 in the morning when it was released.
00:17:44.680
Now people argue that it's conservative's fault.
00:17:59.880
When did they know that this would be necessary?
00:18:06.160
You got nine months, almost 10 months to produce a plan, to have a spending plan.
00:18:12.260
They weren't ready on September 30th, so they voted themselves 90 more days.
00:18:17.120
They weren't ready last week either, so they voted themselves another week.
00:18:21.180
And now we have it at 1 30 in the morning this morning.
00:18:47.600
We're getting 45 billion dollars for the military.
00:18:55.260
Are we at risk for being invaded by a foreign power
00:19:01.360
Or are we more at risk by adding to a 31 trillion dollar debt?
00:19:11.080
All right, more of what's actually inside the thing
00:19:13.160
because it is interesting when you start to peel back the layers.
00:19:30.900
We'll get to all of it coming up on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:19:58.760
broadcasting live from Grand Rapids, WOD Radio.
00:20:02.680
We're supposed to get some sort of blizzard-like conditions.
00:20:05.320
Blizzard warning going into effect a little bit later on today.
00:20:13.820
They're talking about travel snails and all those things.
00:20:16.620
And, you know, this is a heck of a time for this to happen
00:20:19.980
Obviously, people trying to get their shopping done,
00:20:24.360
You're just trying to get a few more billion dollars
00:20:29.960
And it looks like there might be a storm brewing
00:20:52.400
To say an agreement was near to speed up passage
00:20:58.280
after Senators spent Wednesday wrangling behind the scenes.
00:21:01.240
A chief dispute was over pandemic-era asylum restrictions.
00:21:11.680
He said, look, you know, you want to go forward with this?
00:21:16.220
He said, maybe we ought to throw in some funding
00:21:25.560
we'll tell you more about that coming up in just a little bit.
00:21:29.100
Some of these things will make your skin crawl.
00:21:34.160
Title 42, you're trying to inject it into the Omnibus.
00:21:46.720
it contains language undermining border security.
00:21:49.400
So I insisted that we have at least one amendment,
00:21:56.080
because Title 42 is the one thing standing between us
00:22:01.140
This would bring us to utter chaos if it expires,
00:22:43.940
Jason, you are absolutely right to ask that question
00:22:47.840
This is what I've been advocating since September.
00:22:50.200
I've been advocating this all month in December as well.
00:23:06.880
Look, no Republican should vote to support this measure.
00:23:10.880
They shouldn't be supporting this bill in the first place,
00:23:13.300
especially if they won't give us an up or down vote
00:23:18.940
That's Senator Mike Lee stepping up and saying,
00:23:31.960
Republicans want a simple majority threshold for adoption.
00:23:34.380
The Democrats want to raise the bar to 60 votes.
00:24:08.420
that said, hey, you know, you're coming for asylum.
00:24:21.580
They say they've lost track of about 150,000 people.
00:24:32.800
But they say they have lost track of about 150,000 people.
00:24:40.180
Now, that's just the number they're telling us.
00:24:43.040
But they're not keeping track of all of these people
00:53:57.440
lot of divine intervention here and and i'm i'm more more encouraged every day
00:54:02.860
i encourage everybody to have courage everybody and pray for the judges to have

00:56:05.040
on my website and if you want to comment rant rave ask a question about anything during the
00:56:11.500
program here we were just talking to mike lindell and of course he's detailing some of the things
00:56:17.000
that came out of cary lake trial day one yesterday cary lake tweeted this down in arizona some really
00:56:23.000
bizarre details but one of them was about the ballots themselves you know previously a lot of
00:56:29.980
talk has been about machines and then and electronics and and then more about you know
00:56:35.580
uh thinking about the ghost in the machine let me just put it that way but this this uh what what
00:56:42.920
happened and what what they show is the the reason why they have so many issues on election day
00:56:50.000
particularly wasn't a machine itself it was a it was a paper error in fact a human error on paper
00:56:56.740
cary lake tweets they printed mutant ballots on election day using a 19 inch image on a 20 inch
00:57:07.380
ballot now the best way i can explain this to you is you know all the bubbles and everything you have
00:57:13.180
to fill out all of that what your ballot looks like they print that on top of the white paper the
00:57:22.960
white paper is 20 inches but the picture of the bubbles and the questions and the people's names and
00:57:30.420
all of that that's on your ballot that's the actual physical ballot printed on the paper
00:57:39.420
it should have been 20 inches instead it was 19 inches
00:57:45.520
now that was either done on purpose or was a big oops there's been some testimony in this trial to
00:57:55.520
suggest that it was done on purpose there's no way around well i'm not sure all i can tell you is this
00:58:02.760
that's what happened and that is why you had the issues that we saw on election day people going
00:58:09.220
trying to put their ballots in which one's been working better and then yeah you know it wouldn't
00:58:14.540
go through it wouldn't scan so they they push it through one scanner
00:58:28.780
nope not going to take it and take it over to another scanner and
00:58:36.220
and it's rejecting it's because the the scanner doesn't it's not accepting this thing as an
00:58:43.360
actual ballot it's it's saying like this is invalid this is not this is not working so
00:58:49.480
carry tweets mutant ballots they printed mutant ballots on election day using a 19 inch image on a 20 inch
00:58:58.840
paper ballot paper that's why the tabulators rejected the ballots and that's why
00:59:04.560
chaos ensued as lake supporters flooded voting center to cast ballots clowns and crooks run our election
00:59:18.000
i don't know with all of this information that's out there i don't know that there is
00:59:41.000
how do you how do you know that these same people
00:59:49.100
if this was intentional right if they wouldn't find another way to
00:59:53.720
so i i don't i don't know what the solution is here can a judge just roll hey carry carry one i don't know that that can happen
01:00:02.080
but i will tell you this should be eye-opening for everyone
01:00:08.120
