00:01:43.500
hello you sick twisted freak welcome to the glennbeck program
00:01:50.220
we are uh live from the standing rock ranch but my heart is never far from texas what has happened
00:01:57.940
in texas is absolutely remarkable and the new york times is reporting it uh as if
00:02:06.140
you know look this is probably why we need the filibuster to go away because look at what
00:02:11.760
look at what republicans are doing yeah let's look at the republicans and then let's look at the
00:02:19.440
democrats all in the name of democracy we have that coming up in 60 seconds
00:02:33.620
brian lives in alabama he writes in about his experience with relief factor he says after taking
00:02:40.260
relief factor for three weeks at least 90 of my pain is gone how great is that it had begun to limit my
00:02:48.740
mobility and my ability to get things done at work and at home i am so amazed at the relief that i have
00:02:55.560
found i should have started taking relief factor a year ago when i first heard about on uh first heard
00:03:01.580
about it on your show glenn thank you relief factor brian thank you for listening and thank you for
00:03:07.800
writing in just about every day on this program there is at least one more person that writes in and says
00:03:14.440
they've gotten their life back from relief factor now not everybody who takes it will find that relief
00:03:20.440
relief factor is very honest and open about it that's why they give you a three-week trial pack
00:03:26.060
because if it's not working for you within three weeks you shouldn't order more and expect different
00:03:31.100
results the three-week trial pack 70 of the people who try it go on to order more because it works
00:03:39.520

00:03:48.360
welcome to the glenn beck program my dog is asleep behind my dog is asleep behind me
00:04:09.900
uh and uh i'm glad you're here thank you so much we have um uh we we had an interesting
00:04:17.720
uh tale to tell ear in texas you know in texas uh i think we run things better because the
00:04:27.420
politicians are never in session which is the way the united states used to be um we used to
00:04:34.420
meet i think it was once every year in the summer or once every other year and they put it in
00:04:41.340
washington because they knew nobody would want to go to that swamp uh mosquito infested nightmare of a
00:04:48.860
town and unfortunately the the uh uh politicians and everybody i guess decided to uh make that a
00:04:58.220
permanent thing but it it used to be that they would only come in that's the best scenario for a republic
00:05:05.460
because it allows people to have control of their own lives uh cop the uh the house and the senate in
00:05:13.400
texas they don't rule our lives because they're never there so they ended their session in an in
00:05:20.780
an interesting way wouldn't you say stew i would say and it's it's apparently as the uh i believe it
00:05:26.160
was the the new york times in a news story by the way wrote uh and summarized these are the republican
00:05:32.740
efforts to clamp down on voting uh oh man thank goodness we have that happening it's very as you
00:05:41.460
can see anti-democracy glenn uh republicans don't want people to vote they're looking for a select
00:05:47.880
you know group of six or seven people who will vote each year right they're kind of clamped on that list
00:05:53.740
i don't of course i don't know about you but i i'm on that list and uh they're all white and what i say
00:05:58.620
goes right all white men and there's about six of us maybe seven uh eight if you can't count our
00:06:06.060
zionist master over in israel of course um so this is the big the new georgia law controversy is now
00:06:14.300
texas because as each state has gone through it the national media has tried to come together to tell
00:06:20.460
everyone how terrible these things are and now the latest one is in texas texas took a while to get it
00:06:27.260
done came down to the end of the session which was needed to be sunday night uh long story short
00:06:34.440
what the democrats decided to do because you know they love democracy so much glenn and they the
00:06:42.760
respect of democracy the right the right i know the intent of the voters must be respected yes of
00:06:49.900
course as you know amen so what they decided to do with these elected officials that were put in by
00:06:56.300
voters they decided instead of letting them i don't know accomplish uh their uh their jobs and
00:07:04.200
actually do their jobs and get their get the bill that the you know republican voters all supported
00:07:09.460
i get that through they decided to walk out and make it impossible to come up with a quorum
00:07:14.680
basically a procedural measure oh so the vote couldn't go through
00:07:24.180
so they stop the democratic process process now as you know we're a republic republican process if you
00:07:35.060
will not uh not uh republican with a uh a capital r but a republican with a small r right they stopped
00:07:42.100
the republican process which uh part of that is democracy of you know all of them lining up and
00:07:49.260
and voting they stopped that all in the name of that yeah really interesting especially after being
00:07:54.000
lectured for the past couple weeks of the the terror of january 6th and the insurrection attempt that we
00:07:59.820
saw on that date glenn the reason was that it was so offensive was not just the violence and the rioting
00:08:05.380
it was because they stopped the democratic process from going forward uh that that was such a terrible
00:08:11.660
tragedy uh just a couple weeks ago now it's to be praised that democrats walked out of the session so they
00:08:19.060
couldn't get the vote done now long term they will have a special uh session and they will get the voting
00:08:24.020
uh rights um act done uh here in texas but what's fascinating about this glenn is not only that they're
00:08:33.040
stopping democracy to preserve democracy as it were to paraphrase an old george bush uh line on
00:08:39.800
capitalism i gotta i gotta violate the free market to save the free market exactly it doesn't really
00:08:45.960
work george so that's what they're doing here um but in addition to this um you know it's it's a
00:08:53.280
typical bill that you've seen from republicans this cycle which is basically hey we think maybe you
00:08:58.820
should be able to prove who you are before you vote things like um the overwhelming uh one of the
00:09:04.720
most popular items in our national discourse which is voter id things that are this is approved by 70
00:09:14.020
and 80 percent of minority voters 70 and 80 percent of democratic voters approve of voter id but it's
00:09:20.980
tossed out there as if it's the most offensive thing you've ever heard in your life so it's mostly
00:09:24.580
stuff like that the one just like in georgia where they they latched on to you can't have water
00:09:30.560
when you're in the lines there's no water people only go to vote to get water and now you're taking
00:09:37.760
away the water because water is the reason why people get in line to vote every every november
00:09:42.960
and it really it's it's so hot it's so hot in the summer in november in november that november heat
00:09:52.140
wave in the summer oh it's so uh people are dropping dead in the lines in november from heat
00:09:58.380
because they don't have any water we have to bring them water that's what they did in georgia so they
00:10:03.980
didn't attempt that thing in texas what they're doing in texas is the brisket there's no brisket
00:10:11.180
where's the brisket i didn't i need brisket i can't go on i first i voted in georgia and i didn't
00:10:18.400
get any water now what no brisket so what they're trying to do in texas is they're highlighting this
00:10:26.660
one part of the law that was also part of the original um uh take on the georgia law basically
00:10:35.200
it says yes you can vote early yes you can vote early on weekends yes you can vote early on
00:10:43.100
sundays but you can't vote sunday morning early you can't vote until i think it's 1 p.m on sunday
00:10:50.380
whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa now whoa my gosh look at the oppression right that's what they're saying now
00:10:58.700
why are they saying that i mean the republicans are saying look you know we want to be able to
00:11:03.040
protect people who work at the polls and have their ability to still go to church so we don't
00:11:07.580
want people forced to avoid church to have to go work at the polls because they have to open the
00:11:11.580
polls early just just so you know uh texas is the closest to a blue law state that i've ever seen
00:11:20.400
and it's all by choice people do go to church i know it's weird democrats but people do go to church
00:11:28.440
you know when you're not putting their pastors in jail uh in texas and very few stores are open
00:11:35.980
on sunday uh a lot of people take you know the sabbath actually as an important thing it's not
00:11:44.600
against the law for them i mean there's some places do close there's a lot of places open too but those
00:11:49.080
they're not as heavily trafficked as you might think because people are actually at church uh you know
00:11:54.660
it's a highly it's a it's a high population religious uh voting base and citizenship so
00:12:01.360
so but the the democrats are saying well the only reason they're doing this
00:12:06.100
is because they're trying to limit the souls for the polls glad souls for the polls souls hang on just
00:12:14.420
a second my friend hey uh sarah do we have the gospel music here as we talk about the souls
00:12:23.240
for the polls uh that is fantastic so are they are they actually being honest this time
00:12:30.720
well souls for the polls that's uh dead people voting no no i should say you're right souls to
00:12:37.760
the polls you're right so i guess it's not so it's not we don't want our voter registry we want dead
00:12:43.140
people it's it's their claim is basically this is a big i mean they took the mask off already i thought
00:12:50.480
maybe they're just also like yep we're just whipping up names of dead people it's the souls
00:12:56.460
for the polls would not be surprised honestly at this point on this one no i i wouldn't either so
00:13:01.380
souls to the polls is a program that runs you know largely in black churches which is an idea that after
00:13:07.500
church everyone gets together and they all go to the polls to vote early i guess now i i don't know
00:13:15.780
what time church runs uh you know i you know my it runs various times usually there's multiple
00:13:22.160
services in texas i've noticed yeah i mean a lot of churches have show times yeah you're like there's
00:13:28.380
like three or four movie theater yeah three or four services per day right because there's so many
00:13:32.860
people that actually go to church here but the idea being that like what they're accusing republicans of
00:13:38.640
is altering the time schedule so that no one can vote before 1 p.m but because they think they're
00:13:46.100
trying to limit the amount of people who will go from church directly to the polls now in theory if
00:13:52.920
you let's i don't know what time does your church end 11 or 12 so you'd have to wait an hour of course
00:13:58.600
the whole point of this is to make the poll workers who are also going to church giving them time to get to
00:14:03.780
the polls to open but what they're saying is they're just trying to limit black people because
00:14:08.600
they apparently and again this is racism again racism in action here by democrats who are basically
00:14:15.140
trying to make the case that black people care so little about government and society that if given a
00:14:22.140
an opportunity to vote but they need to wait an hour will not vote because they care so little about
00:14:28.000
this country they care so little about the state that they will not wait for an hour after church
00:14:33.460
to go vote because they actually care about the poll workers also being able to go to church these
00:14:38.220
religious people want to thwart the poll workers ability to go to church so that they can go
00:14:43.140
immediately after apparently is the accusation here and they're trying to say this is the only reason
00:14:48.060
they're doing this is to limit black voting and therefore this is anti-democracy which is why we can
00:14:53.500
walk out on the democratic process at the last minute okay oh my head follow that from trying to do the
00:14:59.700
gymnastics on this one weren't the democrats the ones that were trying to shut down all of the churches
00:15:06.080
thank you wasn't it i mean isn't it the the democrats that are the marxists that are not really for church
00:15:16.540
you know or god here is a group of people glenn that have spent the last year telling you you're not
00:15:23.180
allowed to go to church at all you are going to be fined your pastor is going to be arrested if you try
00:15:32.020
to go to a worship service but they're the ones telling you that democracy is at its edge if black
00:15:40.260
churches aren't allowed to cart their voters directly to the polls from church again in addition to all of
00:15:49.440
this we spent the last how long with the democrats telling us it's against the law for any pastor
00:15:56.720
to say anything positive about a republican policy from the pulpit because it's a violation of the
00:16:04.080
separation of church and state and they're going to get their tax exemption status removed but yet
00:16:10.060
souls for the polls is so vital to democracy that apparently now you're allowed to go to church
00:16:18.380
just so you can get to the polls it's insanity i love this souls for the polls i mean it just couldn't
00:16:26.480
be any more clear you're you're saying to me you're going to lose your tax status if you intermingle at
00:16:34.580
all church and the polls you're going to lose your tax status uh you know with an exception of uh
00:16:42.000
souls for the polls and alaska and hawaii what what is that this is a scream if it wasn't so tragic if
00:16:52.080
it wasn't our country burning down it would be hysterical yeah and you know i mean other if i
00:16:56.800
were in canada no no because everybody's going to be ruled by the chinese soon so i wouldn't be laughing
00:17:02.740
if i was in another country if i were in china i'd be laughing hang on i can hear them laughing right
00:17:13.200

so over the weekend i uh spent the time driving up to uh up to the mountain
00:19:43.680
and uh i've never seen so many job openings in my life almost every place i went to said now hiring
00:19:52.800
now hiring please come in and take a job is there anyone out there anyone within the sound of my voice
00:20:01.220
do you have two legs maybe you're missing two arms can you work the fry later some way or another with
00:20:08.200
your teeth uh i mean they will take anybody anybody because everybody is just kicking back on the the
00:20:17.620
biden train and it is really frightening when you think about it when you when you you look at what's
00:20:24.860
happening to us we have already i mean i got news
00:20:29.780
have you ever tried to hire some white people to do work not gonna happen white white people don't do
00:20:40.020
work i didn't i was not familiar with this uh theory no no well i should say white teenagers and stuff
00:20:47.240
they not gonna happen no really no well you are you do have a teenage son this could be
00:20:53.740
coloring your analysis and i'm i'm i'm i'm sitting here with uh five uh teenage boys this week
00:21:02.680
and uh all the stories i will have to tell as i put them to work this week we'll see and i have a
00:21:09.280
feeling my son will be the laziest of all of them now he could be wrong but uh if he's anything like
00:21:15.640
his grandfather he will be uh uh you know my grandfather he was the the chief steward at uh
00:21:25.280
at boeing uh and uh he was the union steward uh which yes i came from a democratic family and uh
00:21:34.160
and union members uh when they weren't so bad and um and he would he would go he was a good storyteller
00:21:41.860
so he would go to everybody's you know you had to make so many widgets a day and you'd put them in a
00:21:47.020
you know a big barrel as you made the widget he would go around and he would just talk to everybody
00:21:51.880
and he'd tell them stories and make them laugh and then he'd take one of their widgets and nobody had
00:21:57.060
a problem with this he'd just take one of their widgets and put it in his pocket then he'd go to
00:22:00.580
the next guy and he'd tell some more stories mike i don't think my grandfather worked a day in his
00:22:04.360
life uh but he had his widget count but he i don't think he made any of them i don't think he made
00:22:10.660
any of them uh so maybe it's just runs in my family but uh america has got to get back to work
00:22:19.560
we are learning how wonderful it is to sit back and get paid by the united states government we're
00:22:28.260
starting to think that oh gee you know what maybe this basic universal income would be a good thing
00:22:38.880
this is the glenbeck program american financing nmls 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
00:22:54.500
so i uh i had a uh conversation or somebody on my staff had a conversation with paul
00:22:59.600
uh about his experience with american financing uh we asked him you know what how did it go what
00:23:05.560
were you looking for and he said it was outstanding he said the entire process was smooth the guys that
00:23:11.380
i worked with really helpful he said i didn't think i could get a better rate than i already had which
00:23:17.480
was very low he said but i kept hearing glen talk about it over and over again i'm finally like okay
00:23:23.620
so i made an appointment and the rest is history it took a year off of our mortgage and saved a few
00:23:31.480
hundred dollars on our monthly mortgage payment i mean that sounds great have you considered calling
00:23:39.060
american financing you might think that you already have a great rate but do you have the best take it
00:23:45.380
from paul that's where he was and he got the best rate and he's saving a few hundred dollars every

00:25:42.960
a quiet place part two which that's what they fought for that's what that's what they fought
00:25:48.160
for uh i took uh kamala's advice they actually did and uh enjoy the long weekend as kamala recommended
00:25:55.700
and uh did go see a quiet place part two which was really i thought it was really interesting to to
00:26:02.360
to do because i had been to the movies a few times i went actually in may 2020 at one point uh pat
00:26:10.700
gray and i remember that yeah we went to a movie it was a really terrible vin diesel movie and we
00:26:15.960
were the only two people not only in the theater but in the entire theater complex i don't know if
00:26:22.500
you're saying we went to a really bad vin diesel movie narrows it down annie no it doesn't it doesn't
00:26:29.160
and also people don't know if if the reason the theater was empty was because of vin diesel or the
00:26:33.580
pandemic uh who knows um right but uh so but it was interesting to see a quiet place part two
00:26:40.800
because i've been looking forward to this for a while i really liked the first one
00:26:43.240
and so on march 8th 2020 john krasinski who you know jim from the office uh did he's been great
00:26:51.800
on a bunch of different projects but he never saw this never thought of his directing talent there
00:26:57.140
were when he was working at a paper company i know really he's grown into it he got his life
00:27:01.560
together a lot of time at the gym apparently uh and he's been thinking about how to direct movies
00:27:06.320
uh so on that weekend he is at a red carpet event for a quiet place part two that is about to be
00:27:15.520
released in a couple of weeks that weekend there's a hundred million dollars done at the box office
00:27:21.340
the next weekend it drops down to 53 million dollars and then march 20th that weekend which is the
00:27:29.560
weekend the a quiet place part two is supposed to come out it goes from 53 million and drops down
00:27:35.260
slightly to 4 160 nationwide jeez a one what what they round to a 100 drop in uh revenues so in that
00:27:47.000
period where on march 8th he is maskless no social distancing doing a red carpet event for this movie
00:27:53.240
that's coming out in less than two weeks to the movie being delayed for what they think is going to
00:27:57.760
be a short time and what turns into what 15 months or whatever it was so this movie's been sitting
00:28:04.000
here ready to go for 15 months and they finally uh released it this weekend and to me it felt like
00:28:09.720
the first real like we're actually back at theaters type of event like why do you say that why do you say
00:28:18.280
that well they've tried a couple times to restart this right the first one was tenant uh back in the
00:28:23.540
summer last year which flopped miserably and was also a i also went to see in the movie theater and
00:28:28.860
it was terrible um and then i agree they sort of have done it a couple times here with these split
00:28:35.380
releases like godzilla versus kong came out and made like almost 30 million dollars in theaters a couple
00:28:40.600
of months ago uh bob odenkirk had a movie that came out called enough that you know it wasn't a major
00:28:45.900
which was really good i liked it a lot i thought it was great it wasn't a tentpole type of movie right
00:28:51.360
uh a quiet place is the first one i feel like they it's only in theaters they really went for
00:28:57.600
this is the old school and it did over i think over 50 million dollars this weekend which is way
00:29:02.380
way above expectations great yeah uh now if it was released uh in march of 2020 with no pandemic it
00:29:10.380
probably would have done 100 million dollars in the weekend so it's not fully back but it was you know
00:29:15.740
the theaters were crowded like they you know i went to book a normal time movie um with my wife
00:29:22.900
one time one night this weekend and it was like crowded enough that you know it was hard to find
00:29:28.200
a good seat in the theaters like wasn't completely sold out at the theaters we looked at but it was
00:29:32.460
mostly sold out even the matinee i wound up going to was pretty crowded for a matinee you know it felt
00:29:38.980
like hey you know this is it's coming back around and it's funny because the the story of the movie
00:29:44.420
kind of parallels the mainstream media telling of the pandemic which is like what if you listen to
00:29:53.000
the media like we're open one day then no one is allowed to go do anything and if you have an in-person
00:29:58.100
conversation everyone there dies that's the story of the pandemic to the media and it's also the story
00:30:04.300
of the movie yeah the parallels of the movie this were actually you know pretty amazing
00:30:10.320
i feel like fauci though was uh trying to sell us these big monsters and at the beginning i bought
00:30:19.200
into it yeah you know just a few months in i'm like no dude uh that's the quiet place that's not
00:30:26.040
happening here that's just not happening here well and it's the toughest kind of movie to make
00:30:31.460
and it again runs parallel to the pandemic like the first movie you spend the entire time
00:30:37.080
figuring out like what the hell is going on right there's something's going on something bad is
00:30:42.700
happening i don't know what it is what do these things look like what is going to happen i don't
00:30:46.700
understand how any of this occurred when you make the sequel to the movie it's a lot harder to make
00:30:51.420
that movie because you know what the creatures look like you understand all the rules of this you know
00:30:57.260
horror movie scenario and so to keep people interested in it it's a lot harder to make the movie this is why
00:31:02.980
like every like jason or friday the 13th movie they just up the death count in the sequels because
00:31:07.780
they're like i don't know what else to do what if we just kill more people i don't know i don't know
00:31:11.160
make them bloodier i mean how many 17 year olds are going to have sex at a camp can how many can we
00:31:15.840
kill let's just kill as many as we can um where this is like they did a really good job pulling it off
00:31:21.740
it's up that part of its opposite though like you get to a point where once you learn the rules
00:31:26.600
once you have a situation where you have let's say a vaccine available to every single person who wants to
00:31:32.920
take it above the age of 12 right you the the fear can't be there anymore right like and it feels
00:31:41.120
like people certainly in texas but i think this is even starting to permeate a lot of the blue states
00:31:45.840
people are ready this is it felt to me like the first time you know that it was like we were able
00:31:52.820
to go back to normal a little bit like you know even in even in a movie theater glenn no masks i mean
00:31:58.180
90 of people not wearing masks going into a movie theater now that's the difference it's weird it's a
00:32:02.680
it really depends on where you are yeah you know i was i you know i crossed the country this weekend
00:32:09.480
and i was in uh you know small towns uh all the way and i really didn't see any mask use but you go to
00:32:20.180
los angeles you go to new york and people are wearing 14 masks on their face uh and for no reason it has
00:32:28.040
just been drilled into their head and it's it's really quite sad yeah i was talking to someone
00:32:34.640
who uh my friend of mine who lives in pennsylvania this weekend and he was telling me he he's like you
00:32:39.280
know like the cdc thing guidance changed and you know all the all the stores now say like masks are
00:32:45.480
optional but only you know 30 maybe 40 of people are not wearing masks and he's like i'm going in there
00:32:51.500
every time without a mask on now and like what i think people lose here is that that's just cultural
00:32:57.600
right that that's not a scientific judgment in fact you would argue these states have higher
00:33:03.360
vaccination rates than than even a state like texas does it's like it's just a cultural thing
00:33:09.220
at this point and people get very frustrated about these restrictions and rightly so and we've talked
00:33:14.280
a lot about how they're wrong and not following the science and all these things and that's all
00:33:19.720
totally legitimate i think at the end of the day when the history is written about this pandemic
00:33:23.960
the fact that texas opened up a couple of months earlier than you know pennsylvania which opened up
00:33:31.540
a couple of months earlier than california is not going to be the headline right like it's it's not
00:33:37.400
the top of this of the story here it if you're in one of these states it feels like an eternity
00:33:43.380
but like i think you know we are getting we're at the point now where if you look back a couple
00:33:48.920
months ago it wasn't 30 or 40 percent in a blue state that were unmasked it was zero percent or
00:33:53.840
five percent now it's 30 or 40 percent in a month from now it'll be 50 or 60 and then it'll be 80 and
00:33:59.080
then it'll be 100 and we are going in the right direction texas feels with the the only exception
00:34:07.460
to this i would say at this point is some places still have their employees wearing masks other than
00:34:13.760
that i would say we feel it feels 100 back to normal here in texas and that might be you might
00:34:19.740
be pissed off if you're in a blue state hearing that like how can that be happening we do live in
00:34:23.780
two americas right now but this is coming to you it's just you have a you the people around you voted
00:34:30.640
for a terrible governor and it's going to take a while you're going to have to pay for that vote for a
00:34:35.540
couple of months while they unroll these things even when the science clearly says it's time to change
00:34:40.840
those policies but you know it is coming we are on the right side of this i think and it was kind
00:34:46.440
of encouraging to see people back in a freaking movie theater again you know 50 million dollar
00:34:51.700
movies is soon we'll be at 100 million again and maybe we'll have you know these regular life back
00:34:57.820
for all of us which i i know i as much as i i can sit here and i like to make the point about red
00:35:05.000
states and blue states it would be nice to have i don't know there's a lot of good people in blue
00:35:08.560
states that have been beat up by all these policies it'll be nice to see them free yeah i know
00:35:12.200
yeah i will tell you that we were we were driving up i had a very different weekend than than i think
00:35:18.940
you did although i was sitting in front of a bunch of teenage boys that i had to say could you just shut
00:35:25.260
up for a few minutes um uh but uh we were driving uh through the mountain as we were coming into the
00:35:33.600
canyon here for the ranch uh i saw an animal i never ever want to see again it was a cougar
00:35:44.180
and it was about two o'clock in the morning was it madonna and we're driving what madonna no
00:35:51.300
yeah you know what i think that's more frightening than the actual cougar that we saw but he was
00:35:58.340
standing across the road he took a full lane he was that big this thing was enormous and we're
00:36:07.780
coming around the corner and i just stopped the car and he just looks at us like like it like the car
00:36:15.440
was a refrigerator you know how you just open up the door and you like look in for a while that's what
00:36:21.040
this this thing was doing just look at the car like a refrigerator is there anything in there i can
00:36:26.780
eat it was terrifying absolutely terrifying fear the cougar don't fear the covid

00:38:58.340
particular you might want to do that for the first time in history uh beef by the pound on the on the
00:39:11.920
hmm why is that the farmers i want you to know ranchers and farmers we're going to be doing a
00:39:24.060
special on this in the next couple of weeks because something is very wrong uh and we're going to
00:39:30.360
delve into a little bit of this uh coming up in just a few minutes but something or something is
00:39:35.700
very wrong with the uh four companies that do all of the the lumber uh distribution and something is
00:39:44.940
wrong with the meat part processors the four companies that are doing all of our meat processing
00:39:49.860
i think it is uh i think it's a monopoly that needs to be broken up quite honestly there are only four
00:39:58.000
of these companies and they all seem to be moving in exactly the same direction two of them are foreign
00:40:03.840
owned one is owned by brazil the other is owned by china can we stop selling our medicine and our food
00:40:11.840
to china could we maybe learn from a lesson and don't have not be dependent on foreign countries for our food
00:40:23.320
or for our medicine but uh beef is going to go through the roof soon uh friday beef was selling for
00:40:34.640
less than pork it's never happened before in history and yet it costs more money to feed a cow
00:40:44.380
and raise a cow than it has in a very long time so it's the farmers they're not getting rich the uh
00:40:51.940

could i play cut six biden democracy is in peril listen to this the lives of billions
00:45:57.080
from antiquity to our own hour have been shaped by the battle between aspirations of the many and the
00:46:04.120
greed of the few between people's right to self-determination and the self-seeking of the
00:46:12.080
dictator between dreams of democracy and appetites for autocracy which we're seeing around the world
00:46:20.640
our troops have fought this battle on fields around the world but also
00:46:25.360
the battle of our time and the mission falls to each of us each and every day democracy itself
00:46:41.200
what we do now what we do now how we honor the memory of the fallen
00:46:47.840
will determine whether or not democracy will long endure
00:46:54.240
so those are great words they really are but i'm having a hard time squaring them with
00:46:59.760
um reality i'm trying i'm trying to square them with
00:47:07.680
so let me be honest with you let me let me did you see the do we happen to have the video of
00:47:13.360
uh joe biden when he was talking about the very young girl he's at a speech and i'm not going to go
00:47:19.440
into the creepiness of the very young girl thing i just want you to listen to him here it is
00:47:26.080
i'm honored to be joined today by the governor northam and by two great representatives of
00:47:31.840
the commonwealth congressman laurie and congressman scott listen to him and i want to thank thank you for
00:47:39.520
all that you do to represent these service veterans because they're devoted to you
00:47:44.560
the family members the caregivers survivors will call virginia home i'm especially honored to share the
00:47:52.160
stage with britney and jordan and nathan and margaret catherine i uh i love those barrettes in her hair
00:48:00.320
man i tell you what i'm looking at her she looks like she's 19 years old sitting there with her
00:48:06.480
like a little lady in the way he's caught britney you're doing triple duty
00:48:14.400
okay we don't have to overlook the weirdness do we i i mean completely yeah no i mean you you go ahead
00:48:20.720
that's not my point but i think it should be made so go ahead stew it was really creepy you all heard
00:48:25.840
it and you know it was creepy i mean i understand that there's a grandfatherly thing he's going for
00:48:31.040
there but he is they should tell him not to try doing it again because it does not work
00:48:38.080
it is really super creepy however did you notice how he is just
00:48:43.600
i don't know i don't know i don't know one thing britney i love those barrettes and britney
00:48:51.280
and he just sounds like he's really really tired like i've got to get a nap in pretty soon i'm not sure
00:49:00.960
um that he even knows i i think he has surrounded himself by radicals
00:49:06.720
uh and i don't know if he's even getting the truth on what is happening with his policies
00:49:13.360
because how are these radicals writing these speeches for him these speeches don't reflect
00:49:20.560
the policies of of him for the most part that that you know democracy is in peril because of uh the
00:49:29.200
the the want of a dictatorship yeah who's calling for a dictatorship who who is who is building the
00:49:37.520
framework of a dictatorship who's the one that's trying to change all of our systems so it's easy to
00:49:46.080
stay in power who is the one that is demonizing half of the country it is it's it's frightening and i saw
00:49:56.320
a poll the other day that democrats and i don't mean the ones in washington i mean the average
00:50:01.680
democrat that you know that lives next door to you that is normal that they're starting to
00:50:07.840
be concerned about some of these things that are happening they're starting to look at the wokeness and say
00:50:15.840
this is going too far and uh you know it looks like we're starting to you know edge into marxism
00:50:24.320
well welcome to the party democrats um i hope you i hope you wake up a little faster because
00:50:31.360
democracy is in peril and i don't understand the policies you know we are looking at probably two
00:50:43.680
million new um dreamers coming in over the border two million in this year
00:50:51.920
at the time when americans are not working now these people will work i don't know about you but
00:51:01.360
i see i see you know in new immigrants assuming they're legal or illegal but i see new immigrants
00:51:10.160
and they are working hard they they know what the american dream is
00:51:15.200
so is that it is is are we just living off of this new labor and then americans are not supposed
00:51:23.360
to go to work because everywhere everywhere it is happening where americans just aren't going to work
00:51:32.240
i got a friend who wrote to me he said glenn my my neighborhood facebook page is now a constant
00:51:39.200
stream of job openings for low-wage positions people are complaining because mercury coffee just
00:51:46.160
shut down here uh until they can find people jimmy johns is now shut down not because of covid but
00:51:53.840
because they can't find anybody to work it the local pizza place can't find anyone i just placed an
00:52:00.320
order at mcdonald's and drove up to pick it up the manager told me she can't do curbside because they
00:52:06.080
don't have enough people even to keep the drive-through running there were dozens of cars waiting in like
00:52:13.120
70s gas lines for the drive-through at mcdonald's what's happening to us
00:52:23.680
well we're we're so many are not willing to go back to work and this is going to mean really bad things
00:52:32.400
now i want to i want to talk to you about the price of gas and the price of everything that is going
00:52:39.120
up and not all of it is because people won't go to work some of it is if we include all food and energy
00:52:48.400
costs into our cpi which we don't because the government says oh those numbers are too volatile
00:52:55.760
oh they just go up and down and we don't want to include those in the
00:53:01.760
the consumer product in index i mean consumer price index i mean because they'll go up
00:53:09.520
if you include them like we used to we'd be closer to 20 percent annualized rate of inflation 20
00:53:17.200
percent john williams that's shadow stats pegged in 1980s era cpi at 12 percent in april compared to
00:53:27.040
the four percent that the government tells us it is but even he noted that his inflation index
00:53:33.440
doesn't include all food costs for instance dining out now i'm not dining out all the time but i'm using
00:53:41.120
uber eats more than i ever have before if gasoline moves up to five dollars a gallon even his index
00:53:50.320
will be higher uh closer to 18 percent we also have another problem and i would love to hear from anybody
00:54:03.680
who is a rancher or somebody who sells lumber on their land or a logger because something is very very wrong
00:54:15.120
we have a growing issue in both the lumber and meat packing industry now on friday
00:54:25.600
we have lumber up over 800 percent increase the price over 800 percent in an increase
00:54:38.560
we also have a housing shortage now people are are trying to buy houses but they're buying houses
00:54:45.440
at a rate or i should say at a price that we have never seen before in human history
00:54:52.000
when you look at the case shiller index never has america paid this much for a house it's almost
00:55:02.320
double what it was in 2007 right before the big collapse where everybody lost their houses
00:55:11.280
one of the reasons is because the houses are about 30 percent more expensive to build right now
00:55:19.040
because of a shortage of lumber now you're president of the united states what do you do
00:55:26.320
if you believe in the united states if you're trying to help out the consumer
00:55:32.080
do you do things to make lumber less expensive or more expensive on friday president biden put a new tariff
00:55:42.480
on lumber so now we have any lumber that is coming from canada has a new tariff on it
00:55:53.200
well that's not helpful that will make the price of lumber even more expensive
00:55:59.200
now there are four companies four companies that run the lumber mills there are also four companies that
00:56:06.640
are the largest meat packers they control over 90 percent of all of the uh product in america so if
00:56:17.280
you're looking to buy meat you're most likely going to get it from these four processing plants
00:56:25.120
90 you're looking for lumber you're going to get them from these four different lumber companies
00:56:31.360
there is something you could make a case for collusion and there are some senators now
00:56:43.360
including democratic senators who are now looking at the price of beef and what is going on and the
00:56:49.760
price of lumber and they're asking questions and what they're doing is they're asking the justice
00:56:55.440
department to look into it to see if there's any collusion do you trust the justice department
00:57:08.480
consumer prices are up more than a hundred percent in each industry but what's driving the shortages
00:57:17.680
is more collusion between major companies keeping the supply short rather than skyrocketing
00:57:25.280
demand or shortage of production in both cases lumber and beef fortune 100 companies who control the
00:57:36.160
industry are making huge profits right now gigantic profits but the producers and the consumers are getting
00:57:47.200
screwed the guy with the chainsaw out in the forest he's not making more money
00:57:54.160
the guy who has has purchased this land and is now trying to thin some of the forest by taking some of the lumber
00:58:03.600
he's not getting rich if you have a herd of cattle and you are trying to sell them at market you've just
00:58:12.480
paid the highest price you may have paid in a very long time for grain
00:58:16.960
you have to raise the price of your cow because you've paid it cost you so much money
00:58:27.840
if you're lucky you're making about eight cents a pound
00:58:33.600
that's barely enough to keep the lights on if you're lucky as of as of friday you
00:58:43.280
weren't making anything you were lucky to break even most are losing money so we have plenty of beef
00:58:59.120
i'll tell you the excuse and then the real reason next

01:00:52.880
so it is it is not the fault of the truckers it is not the fault of the producers we know now that the
01:01:07.840
producers are paying more for grain uh they are uh the cheapest logs we've had in a very long time
01:01:17.120
so what's happening because the the guys who are actually producing they're not getting any more money
01:01:25.200
in fact they're getting less so where's it coming from well the meat producers are blaming it on the
01:01:33.280
truckers the truckers would not be could not be responsible for a 100 percent increase
01:01:44.640
yes we have shortages of people who want to work but the truckers are being paid uh more than they
01:01:55.440
were but not enough to make our beef this expensive it's at the producers level the people who actually
01:02:05.920
take the beef process it and then get it to the stores they are making profits that are record
01:02:14.560
profits and because there's only four of them two of which are foreign owned when are we going to learn
01:02:21.120
that lesson because there's only four of them i believe it's a wink and a nod i believe i can't prove
01:02:28.480
it but there needs to be an investigation but it's going to be the justice department they i believe are
01:02:36.080
looking at profits and saying why would we work harder when we're making more money than we ever
01:02:44.240
have we're we're putting out less product and we're making more money why would we want
01:02:53.920
this to change i don't think these companies are in it for americans i don't think these companies are
01:03:02.240
actually doing the right thing um they're doing the right thing for the shareholders perhaps for the
01:03:10.640
ceos perhaps they're not doing the right thing for the american people and somebody in government needs
01:03:18.480
to have a hearing and call them to task is there anybody clean enough in washington dc to do it
01:03:27.760
because the price of your house and the price of the food that you put on that kitchen table
01:03:32.000
are going to skyrocket if this doesn't stop soon you're also going to put all of the farmers out of
01:03:40.240
business you're not going to have anybody that can afford to raise cattle for meat oh but don't worry
01:03:47.040
two of those companies are foreign but the other two they're the ones making things like the impossible
01:03:54.640
burger oh they're so green oh i wonder if they get some help on that as well this is the glenn back program
01:04:08.880

this is the glenn back program i want to play something i found on uh lonesome lands uh it's a
01:05:42.160
um it's a rancher uh kind of website and this is uh this is the guy who uh gives the updates his name is
01:05:49.920
jim mundorff i want you to listen to what he says about the prices of of beef in the grocery store and
01:05:57.440
on the farm if you imagine yourself as a beef packer and you are butchering two head of cattle
01:06:03.440
every day and on those two head you're making 200 per head so you're making 400 a day and you're making
01:06:09.440
a good living and a good profit and all of a sudden something happens and now you're only able to make
01:06:14.560
one you're only able to butcher one head of cattle a day and on that one head because there's less
01:06:20.640
supply uh beef you're able to increase your pricing and all of a sudden you're making a thousand dollars
01:06:26.240
a day and and so your income has jumped two head a 400 one head a thousand and now you've got less
01:06:36.000
payroll less facilities needed less logistical issues just less everything and you're making more money
01:06:42.800
are you going to be in a hurry to go back uh to go back and work harder for 400 a day or are you
01:06:49.920
going to want to sit on your thousand dollars a day and just rake it in as rake it in and just butcher
01:06:56.720
that one you're going to want to sit on a thousand dollars a day but in a competitive marketplace what
01:07:03.360
you would have is somebody else would say they would want that market share they would want that shelf
01:07:08.960
space and they would come in and they would butcher two four six eight whatever it took because you're
01:07:14.400
in a competitive marketplace but in this scenario there's only four of you um there's you and three
01:07:20.560
other beef packers and you're just kind of looking at each other while you're making your thousand
01:07:24.800
dollars a day and thinking why would we ever go back why would we ever increase um increase
01:07:29.680
production again when we can sit back and make this make more money than we ever dreamed of and so that's
01:07:35.520
where we're at and what they're doing is illegal um and that's a re they always have to have an excuse
01:07:42.320
right now their excuse is a labor shortage um last year it was uh covet of course and then the year
01:07:49.920
before that there was a little fire that broke out in one of the beef one beef packing plant in kansas
01:07:56.000
and it's just always another excuse and then every time the profit margins just get more they just
01:08:02.320
stretch those profit margins out more and more this is something that i never knew and never followed
01:08:11.680
and most people don't because we're too far away from the land but what he was just saying is exactly
01:08:17.920
what all of the ranchers around me say every single time it's always something we now have four
01:08:25.040
companies that produce about 90 of all the beef in america tyson foods jbs cargill and smithfield foods
01:08:35.440
they're the ones that are controlling the market and the market price we have got to start
01:08:44.160
getting away from these big companies on almost everything we you know the one thing that people have
01:08:50.400
right uh on the on the left if you will the the idea that uh we should uh think globally but act locally
01:09:01.440
the more we have given all of the power over our food over our medicine everything out of our states
01:09:08.400
many times out of our country we have got to find these small meat packing plants again
01:09:15.120
and uh encourage them and start buying from them because this is out of control ben in ohio hello ben
01:09:27.040
yes sir good morning how's things in texas uh really good yeah well hey you were talking about
01:09:35.200
you know the inflationary rate on on food pricing going up uh our family here in our village
01:09:40.960
uh we own and operate a small meat processing facility we do everything but slaughtering uh and we
01:09:50.560
raise all of our products here locally uh on our farm right outside of town uh and boy i tell you what
01:09:57.360
since and i'm i don't mean to sound cliche but since january 20th uh protein prices have drastically
01:10:05.840
increased and you know we saw that last year uh go ahead and you know we saw that last year uh due to
01:10:11.760
covet you know uh and we saw a huge huge huge price increase and we also saw huge price decreases
01:10:20.800
immediately after that and now we're seeing that again uh and like you said we're seeing these excuses
01:10:29.280
being played out of less labor which obviously we know there is less labor out there but you are correct
01:10:35.200
correct there are four companies that control the price here in the united states uh and
01:10:42.160
and i and i think it's like almost like the mafia if they're not buying if they're not doing it
01:10:49.680
i mean they control the price of what the animals cost at the market uh and they're making all of this
01:10:57.360
money on the end where the farmers and the ranchers and the people who grown the grain they're not getting
01:11:03.920
rich no well they're they're the ones that not only are they doing the processing uh to the final
01:11:11.600
consumer they're also owning the product as well and they're not you know they're not the small family
01:11:17.680
farms that raised a hundred to a thousand uh ten thousand cattle uh had a head of beef a year you
01:11:24.320
know it's not them that are doing it's not the family that are doing it's the corporate and they just work for
01:11:29.680
the man so to speak so uh yeah we're our our family business here we're we're in a niche business
01:11:39.600
where we uh operate uh and sell directly to you know from farm to table if you want to call it that
01:11:45.520
i know that that's a real hot hot buzz point right now or hot word to say but you know you're talking
01:11:50.800
about the uh uh the four companies not only do they control the price they control all the regulations as
01:11:57.280
well too and make it much more difficult for the small family farms to be successful and i call it
01:12:04.240
the walmartization of our food and not and that's unfair to say to a retailer like walmart but they
01:12:12.000
want you to go and buy in these small they don't want you to buy from us small producers and retailers
01:12:19.680
they want you to go into the large retailers like the krogers like the publics like uh around here we have
01:12:26.960
you know meyer stores as well too or more whole foods or costcos uh and they trick you into thinking
01:12:34.720
that those places are actually less when you're actually paying more uh the same or more but they
01:12:41.360
have you know maybe one or two items that are lesser than a smaller retailer but everything else is
01:12:48.480
the same or greater um ben thank you so much for your phone call we need to find our own processors
01:12:58.320
uh locally and by farm to uh farm to table let's go to mike in west virginia hello mike
01:13:07.600
hi mr beck how are you there mike good sir how are you i'm good again um good morning to you and
01:13:15.280
stew um i might have a little bit different perspective on this i work for a company that
01:13:20.400
manufactures animal feed trailers um i sell these trailers to everyone that's just been mentioned on
01:13:26.720
the air within the last five minutes i was telling your uh call screener the name of my company who i
01:13:33.280
deal with and what i'm being told out there glenn is that the three main ingredients to animal feed
01:13:42.720
is corn soy and diesel fuel now obviously you don't put diesel fuel in it but you got to have it to
01:13:48.000
move product from point a to point b and i've got people out there telling me not only at the big
01:13:56.320
producers such as the ones you mentioned smithfield tyson but also at your smaller feed mills there are
01:14:02.160
hundreds of small feed mills in the hills of pennsylvania ohio so forth and so on and they're
01:14:08.400
telling me that by this time next year soy could be double uh corn could be doubled and diesel could
01:14:14.720
be 450 a gallon and that's not unrealistic and when that happens i don't think it's on hang on just a
01:14:22.160
sec mike i don't think that's unrealistic at all and i i agree with you on the three ingredients for
01:14:28.960
cattle but what i'm saying is that the average rancher brings his cow who he's had to pay more for
01:14:36.320
diesel fuel he has had to pay more uh for uh his feed he's not getting that back he's breaking even
01:14:46.000
at best uh and so the so the all the profit margins are coming from uh or going to the meat processors
01:14:56.080
they're not going to everybody else they're not certainly not going to the rancher
01:15:01.280
you know you're you're absolutely correct and the bottom line in all this glenn is that
01:15:08.800
and and we don't quite understand and maybe you do but the bottom motivator in all of this
01:15:16.480
is energy prices when it costs more money to move raw material from point a to point b then it's just
01:15:23.920
going to be you know common sense to realize that it's going to cost more money to move the end product
01:15:29.760
from point a to point b everything that is moved in the animal feed industry or the animal production
01:15:35.520
industry is done with diesel fuel whether it be trains semi-trailers what have you yeah and when
01:15:44.000
when all of that and they don't buy it like you and i buy it glenn um i mean they buy it by the tanker
01:15:50.000
load and so when they're you know when they're at a dollar 85 a gallon which they were a year ago right now
01:15:56.320
uh and now they're almost double that that the the one that pays for this and and we can all thank
01:16:04.720
uncle joey for this the one that pays for this is you and me and everybody else that wants to sit down
01:16:12.080
and and and have a good meal and it's not just beef that's where people all those ingredients i gave
01:16:18.800
you i know turkey feed that's turkey feed that's chicken feed that's cow feed uh in fact cow feed has got a
01:16:26.080
little bit less of that i'm talking from the dairy side of it than some of the others some of the
01:16:32.320
dairy feeds get molasses put in it and and and more sweeteners you know because that's more appealing to
01:16:38.320
to that animal but when but corn soy and what the other people don't realize glenn and maybe you do is
01:16:44.000
when you're rolling down the roads of ohio indiana illinois i grew up in the chicago area
01:16:48.640
and you see all these fields of corn 95 of that corn and soybean that you see when you're rolling down
01:16:54.480
the the back roads of ohio pennsylvania illinois that is not for human consumption that's for
01:17:00.640
animal consumption i mean that's not your sweet thank you see
01:17:07.040
i i agree with you mike thank you i gotta cut you uh loose we have verne on the phone hello verne yes
01:17:14.240

balloons and they would have an open house and then they'd have an open house for all the realtors

01:20:28.220
interesting listening to that caller uh not the one who was telling us about the 14 main ingredients
01:20:32.800
of rodent swill but the one before that yeah and several callers this hour where i i'm fascinated
01:20:39.820
by this at the level of i like go to grocery stores often uh as you might know by looking at me
01:20:48.040
and i you realize how well capitalism works when you think about there are all of these things all
01:20:56.320
these products in these stores they're always there whenever i need them and i spend approximately
01:21:02.500
zero minutes thinking about how they get there you know i i am not required by this at all
01:21:08.200
by the by the country at all to even think about this and and you realize these problems are real
01:21:14.440
yeah so i'm with you i never think of it either until until the price of until my grocery store says
01:21:22.460
we're not even buying beef ribs anymore because they're far too expensive no one will buy them
01:21:27.900
and i'm i'm hearing that in a community of ranchers um that that's that's nuts and so you start
01:21:36.600
to look at it and go okay so wait what what part of the capitalist system is breaking down here
01:21:41.520
and there's several things that are breaking down um and if we're going to if we're going to be able
01:21:49.460
to afford meat you know there's a possibility that this is part of the esg thing two of those companies
01:21:57.380
that are the beef producers are also making fake meat which would be great for their esg scores
01:22:03.740
um we're putting ranchers out of business once you do that all you have is corporate meat and
01:22:12.840
you're held hostage you can't lose the local farms especially when you go to the grocery store and
01:22:20.200
look at the price of food today it's the glenn back program thank you so much uh hillary i want to
01:22:25.580
talk to you a little bit about my friends at my patriot supply as we uh look at a very uncertain
01:22:32.000
future you might want to consider my patriot supply and a food supply especially with food prices and
01:22:39.560
taxes and inflation whether you want to admit it or or not i think the country is going to face some
01:22:45.780
some difficult times in the future america's leader in emergency preparedness and self-reliance
01:22:55.840
is my patriot supply they've been with me for a long time and i want you to have the opportunity
01:23:02.060

01:23:54.900
what you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn back program
01:24:06.980
america's farmers are in trouble uh but you're going to experience it in a different way
01:24:19.460
when you go to the grocery store and you try to buy some cereal you try to buy some milk
01:24:28.680
you're going to see real increases uh of of all of those products very very soon
01:24:37.080
and there's many reasons why that price is going up some of them don't seem to make sense
01:24:44.740
i have a guy who can explain it to a simpleton like me in 60 seconds
01:24:51.220
the glenn back program we just uh celebrated memorial day we as a family reflected on those

01:26:14.700
so i grew up on a farm kind of in the summers my grandparents had a farm and uh there wasn't
01:26:40.140
anything i could do faster than get off of that farm it's incredible work um however i think we
01:26:48.900
lost it as a nation when we lost connection with the soil and how things grow and are produced
01:26:54.880
i i want to talk to somebody who i admire a great deal who has been on the program before
01:27:01.980
uh and whose voice i seek out when the price of meat is starting to go up his name is steve stratford
01:27:10.700
he's a uh kansas cattle buyer and angus breeder and assistant manager of pratt livestock hello steve how
01:27:18.220
are you good morning glenn i'm great uh thanks for having me on you bet now steve here's what i'd like
01:27:27.460
to do because most of the audience doesn't doesn't care about the price of cattle and they should
01:27:35.540
can you frame this so people who are just they go just go to the grocery store they're living in a
01:27:41.800
city they're living a normal life and they're disconnected from the farms can you explain what's
01:27:48.320
happening to the beef and why it's so important i'll tell you what glenn right now uh the uh packing
01:27:57.880
industry is controlled by such few amount of people that uh basically today they can uh put the screws
01:28:05.700
to the consumer and the producer both and and capture a margin in the middle that uh is not uh
01:28:12.180
of uh percentage equity theirs um basically uh you know they're they're profiting this week
01:28:22.640
a thousand dollars ahead and owning that animal for a week or less and the producer's margins are
01:28:29.260
negative 100 to maybe 20 or 30 dollars and they've got an 18 month investment in that animal
01:28:35.880
right so the people who are raising the cows they are losing money now at the open market
01:28:43.400
why is the market i mean because they're paying more for feed they do have at least 12 to 18 months
01:28:51.660
in that cow that they had to feed it and care for it and give it its vaccinations and everything else
01:28:57.360
and now they're losing money um that sounds like a company trying to put farmers out of business
01:29:04.440
yeah that's exactly right and i mean you're talking about that producer losing money while
01:29:10.680
our product at the retail sector is at record levels and the demand is insatiable um what has
01:29:18.160
happened that they've got so much captive supply and control handed to them that they don't have to
01:29:23.920
actively bid and there's no true price discovery on those cattle um so they've got the deal controlled
01:29:29.920
and they're putting the screws to the retail sector and uh also the producer with the end goal in mind
01:29:36.400
to uh get it down to just a few uh very large producers that are willing to work on a margin
01:29:43.100
and uh put the average uh smaller operator out of business in this country
01:29:48.320
so the free market system has completely broken down
01:29:53.080
correct um you know we've lost any price discovery and any connection to the uh to the product we raise
01:30:02.160
um you know they uh they can uh they can price it at the retail sector and basically
01:30:11.600
so the trump administration was looking into these um uh into these uh processing
01:30:22.920
plants um because of covid and they said oh this is the price and the farmers are getting screwed
01:30:29.180
because of covid and he didn't think so do you know if any of that was was done was was there any
01:30:36.180
result to that we're actually waiting on the results of the there was a fire and a packing plant we're
01:30:43.820
still waiting on the final results of that investigation all that stuff has uh come without any real
01:30:50.660
true fruition or answers um as we speak right now we have a couple three drives from uh different senators
01:31:08.960
you know wait this out i mean i don't know any ranchers that can
01:31:14.720
lose that kind of money on their cows and then just oh well i'll just do it again for a year and hope that it's better next year
01:31:21.580
yeah and and we're at that point now glenn that where uh the clock's ticking fast
01:31:28.580
um you know it is such a large investment out here for these people and they have to uh invest so much time
01:31:35.440
capital labor that uh if they don't start getting a plausible return here
01:31:40.760
uh we're going to see a lot of these producers go out of business
01:31:48.200
a like i said before i mean these these big packers can price it to the retail sector however they want
01:31:55.240
they own different uh segments of the protein business
01:31:59.460
um they're controlling that whole meat counter with also investments in fake meat
01:32:09.620
misadvertising by the packer i mean you go into the effect of the
01:32:14.580
the foreign beef coming in and as long as it's processed here it can be labeled
01:32:19.880
um you know we've got it coming from all avenues i mean right in the middle of the american
01:32:30.440
the american taxpayer just as well wrote those checks to uh the four major packers because they're
01:32:36.320
the ones that got that margin our product was never in problem our product never was at a
01:32:42.140
discount in the meat in the meat counter and we had to bail out the american ranchers when the
01:32:47.520
when the product they raise is at a record level and and that's just a broken system
01:32:52.000
so we're talking to steve stafford whose report on this i watched i think on uh friday or saturday
01:33:00.160
and you know i am i am not a rancher but uh you know i i dabble in cows and the one thing that
01:33:09.040
i've learned is this didn't start with covid there's always an excuse and it it looks like
01:33:16.300
um that this started to get bad around 2015 which i think is interesting when you look at the paris
01:33:24.520
accords because they went down uh as as well at that time and the they were then pushing the
01:33:33.080
corporations and big banks into this esg thing but let me just give you an article here that
01:33:40.760
really is disturbing um meat from animals i'm quoting meat from animals will be a luxury
01:33:48.400
uh and very pricey in the future the people will have to turn to vegetable derived alternatives which
01:33:56.960
will be cheaper this is according to jbs chief executive officer uh gobelto uh tom what is it tomozoni
01:34:07.640
um this is jbs saying years ago that this is going to become very very pricey
01:34:15.860
what is what are the indications that beef is going to become you know more pricey in the future other
01:34:23.660
than people wanting to engineer prices to be more expensive yeah and you've got the packers investing in
01:34:32.480
the alternative meats um which is a direct competition and um they uh you know there's no
01:34:40.360
reason right now for what the producer's receiving for the meat to be at the price they are it's just
01:34:45.260
a monopoly on the on the packing system um and we haven't you know you've got these fake meats out
01:34:53.500
here they've got a list of ingredients in them that is longer than your average bathroom cleaner
01:34:58.560
you'll find under your sink um i don't think we really know the ramifications or if that stuff's
01:35:03.820
even healthy um and uh i imagine you're a red-blooded american that eats red meat and uh we've proven that
01:35:11.860
that is healthy and the most wholesome source of protein for a long time here so i don't think we
01:35:16.960
throw the baby out with the bath water and think we go to uh these alternatives they're pushing
01:35:21.260
so steve you're seeing the futures prices now what does that mean in the grocery store
01:35:28.380
a month from now two months from now you know the futures price to the grocery store really means
01:35:36.020
nothing the futures prices is what the producer out here can lock in that ad or uh um you know price
01:35:45.320
his product at there is no tie to the from the futures price to the boxed beef um there's no tie to the
01:35:53.100
producer with the boxed beef price um we do have a like a december futures is showing fat kettle going
01:36:00.360
to be you know 15 dollars you know eight nine dollars higher than it is today um now how does that
01:36:08.100
correlate to the boxed beef it really doesn't um the packers can price that word so do you have
01:36:12.860
you have any idea how if our prices are going to go up or down at the grocery store
01:36:19.860
it would look to me like they're going to stay up we have a employer problem in these plants they
01:36:27.260
can't process at maximum capacity because the employees won't show up because they can make as
01:36:32.320
much money sitting at home collecting unemployment um and like i say beef has crazy demand right now
01:36:39.200
everybody's out and about and back out um so uh they have they've got that price up there and gouging
01:36:47.340
the consumer because they can't uh they can't process enough of it and keep it in front
01:36:51.680
steve thank you so much you want to take it you want to take it to another level i guess i'd like to
01:36:59.740
add this that uh the average consumer out there listening to you and the consumer across the united
01:37:05.220
states needs to call their senators their legislators and express concerns because uh you know just like
01:37:12.860
today we've got jbs which is the largest packer in the united states of proteins under cyber attack
01:37:19.540
and shut down so the prices will skyrocket at the consumer level um when one of these packers
01:37:27.300
goes down for a minute so this country national security and food security needs to uh have more
01:37:33.780
packing and and uh not be so susceptible to problems
01:37:37.640
steve thank you very much i appreciate it call your senator and your congressman now
01:37:44.700
and have them look into this uh i was just going to uh report on this uh cyber hacking
01:37:52.280
it is exactly what happened to our gasoline uh what a surprise we're going to see more of this which will
01:37:59.740
cause the cost of everything going up i sure would like to know what washington is doing about it
01:38:06.260
you know last time we had a cyber hack it was uh it was a private matter it was a private corporation
01:38:12.780
well what the hell good is a the united states government if you're not protecting our private
01:38:19.780
corporations uh and our and our private individuals from terrorist attacks and that's exactly what this
01:38:27.880
is they're shutting us down and they're shutting us down in core sectors god forbid somebody actually
01:38:35.820
get serious the damage they could do to this country 10 second station id after i tell you about
01:38:42.000

01:40:03.800
roughgreens.com slash beck 10 seconds station id
01:40:08.240
welcome back to the glenn beck program as uh we we go into food enthusiast uh steve brageer
01:40:30.100
otherwise known as stew uh it's not my business card are you in a food coma yeah that there's a food
01:40:36.740
enthusiast is how i want to be known it'll be on my uh my gravestone when i pass yeah you used to be
01:40:43.600
a food inventor uh you were very good at inventing really delicious things thank you thank you glenn
01:40:50.580
it's one of my main accomplishments in life uh we've been talking a lot about really is pretty much your
01:40:55.840
only only accomplishment really stew i think that's there anything i'm not uh i'm not uh upset about that
01:41:03.120
yeah i don't i just don't think that there is uh anything more important than uh food you know
01:41:10.080
and i don't mean the price of food i just mean food just having it around you know just having burgers
01:41:16.700
and fries and who and tater tots and things like that i guess occasionally a salad for someone i don't
01:41:24.720
know who but occasionally you know i'll give them my lettuce and tomato off of my hamburger
01:41:33.320
well it is it has the main ingredients you know lettuce tomato i don't know i don't know how else
01:41:43.360
you make a salad there probably is other things in it but i'm not really that interested as people
01:41:48.100
point out for many people around the country salad is the food that your food eats
01:41:53.480
exactly right yes it took me a while to to see that through but you're exactly right you're exactly
01:42:03.180
right and so if they had a salad i'm practically having a salad myself you know they're talking a
01:42:09.940
little bit about um you're talking a little bit about the you know the different just sort of
01:42:14.260
plant-based options there are these days and they do point out uh that basically you're doing
01:42:20.500
a similar process here when you're talking about a hamburger all you're doing is converting grass
01:42:25.800
into food and essentially that's the i mean they're almost doing the same thing uh because you're
01:42:33.100
taking grass it's almost an impossible burger yeah you're feeding it to an animal they're eating the
01:42:37.240
grass they're turning that into cow and then uh you're eating the cow so it's very similar
01:42:43.760
so basically i'm having grass every time i have a steak i just you're a vegetarian you know maybe
01:42:50.560
i'll have a little finished with a little corn you know uh but basically that's you're having grass
01:42:56.980
and corn i mean sure yeah that's how it works is exactly how it works it's like you know when you're
01:43:03.260
when you're eating french fries you're just eating your vegetables that's all you're doing ketchup
01:43:08.520
yep i mean that's your fruit uh vegetable that's not a fruit well it's not a fruit isn't tomato a
01:43:15.280
fruit is it a fruit tomato's a fruit i think it actually is yes yeah i wasn't guessing it makes no
01:43:20.060
sense yeah that whoever was categorizing you know tomatoes it's not a fruit it's not a fruit yeah
01:43:26.200
remember that you know in the colonial times we used to think that in america we used to actually
01:43:31.860
believe that tomatoes were poisonous and uh you should never eat them because it was poison
01:43:38.720
and people would do shows um you know there's this uh newspaper report that we have over in the vault
01:43:46.340
uh for mercury one of a guy taking all day saturday he was in the newspaper for it and all he did was go
01:43:53.940
to the town square and like 20 000 people uh showed up and he ate tomatoes all day and everybody
01:44:01.720

white pizza how did that how did all that work uh you don't know they had pizza yet uh i'm not sure
01:44:22.640
not sure sounds like a but uh it was kind of a it was like a uh a parlor trick for thomas jefferson
01:44:30.120
he would invite people over and then he put sliced tomatoes on the plate and everybody around the
01:44:36.440
table go oh my gosh and he'd say no they're actually good for you and then he would cut his
01:44:44.320
up and eat it and then everybody else would like he's making us eat tomatoes which hasn't changed
01:44:49.980

this is the glenn beck program we're glad you're here there's a couple of updates uh one on black
01:46:47.040
lives matter uh one of the guys who was a blm founder in minnesota said he was leaving now
01:46:58.700
because he figured out what the group is really all about i want you to listen i am living proof
01:47:05.500
that no matter your start in life quality education is a pathway to success i want the
01:47:11.820
same success for our children in our communities that's why in 2015 i was a founder of black lives
01:47:18.560
matter in saint paul i believe the organization stood for exactly what the name implies black lives
01:47:25.040
do matter however after a year on the inside i learned they had little concern for rebuilding
01:47:31.520
black families and they cared even less about improving the quality of education for students
01:47:36.800
in minneapolis that was made clear when they publicly denounced charter schools alongside the
01:47:43.280
teachers union i was an insider in black lives matter and i learned the ugly truth the moratorium on
01:47:49.680
charter schools does not support rebuilding the black family but it does create barriers to
01:47:54.880
a better education for black children i resigned from black lives matter after a year and a half
01:48:00.960
but i didn't quit working to improve black lives and access to a great education today i serve as the
01:48:08.000
president and executive director of minnesota parent union we're dedicated to helping parents move their
01:48:13.840
children from failing schools to successful schools it's hard work and we're up against forces that don't want
01:48:20.720
us to succeed but success is possible just look at me and the hundreds of children and families we've helped to pursue a
01:48:29.520
great education break the chains of poverty and lead a life of success
01:48:37.520
now join our movement to return to faith family uh and something else uh if if that was black lives matter
01:48:49.280
faith family and education if that was what they were doing i think they would be much more uh
01:48:57.040
you know much people would be much more inclined not to abandon them in record numbers but the people
01:49:04.400
know this is all about marxism now it's all about violence in the streets and it really doesn't have
01:49:10.480
anything to do with what the average person wants which is a fair shake i want to hear this uh professor
01:49:19.120
arguing for critical race theory i mean i i mean you want to talk about taking the mask off
01:49:26.320
listen to cut four i want to say that the marxist foundation of critical race theory
01:49:33.280
is at base a spiritual concern if you read march you know that he was concerned about alienation
01:49:39.920
specifically alienation of the species being that element of humanity uh that provides creativity
01:49:47.520
that is unique to the individual uh that really gives us it is what defines humans from animals in
01:49:55.600
that case and that marx was concerned that our modern systems were flattening that humanity so the core
01:50:03.440
question for critical race theory is one of releasing people especially people of color especially black
01:50:09.840
people from uh the oppressive systems that deny us access to our species being including racism
01:50:17.680
uh huh so which one do you think will be more effective the one that is saying look you can be a
01:50:29.680
success look at me or the one that says no we have to condemn other people because you can't have success
01:50:37.280
this is all oppression i i i don't understand how this is selling i really don't but it is
01:50:47.600
but at least we haven't gone down the spain route yet cut one
01:50:51.760
the world has had enough it is time to draw a line in the sun thousands have taken to the streets to
01:51:03.200
condemn racial discrimination and correos the spanish postal service wants to play its part too that's
01:51:09.440
why we created a new series of stamps correos presents equality stamps a collection of stamps that
01:51:17.120
reflect an unjust and painful reality which should never exist there are people who think the value
01:51:25.520
of a person depends on the color of their skin that's why these stamps have a different value depending
01:51:31.920
on the color of the skin they represent the darker the stamp the lower its value that means you'll need
01:51:38.880
more black stamps than white ones for your deliveries that way every letter and every parcel
01:51:45.760
will be a reflection of the inequality generated by racism a protest equality stamps a collection of
01:51:53.760
stamps demanding that color should not determine the value we place on a person's life
01:52:02.240
so the postal service in spain starting a new stamp program where the lighter the color of the stamp
01:52:13.040
the more value it has the the darker the stamp the less value hmm and they're saying that this is going
01:52:22.080
to be because people are going to buy they're going to have to buy a lot of the lower price stamps
01:52:33.040
how many of those lower price stamps it takes uh you know instead of just one white stamp
01:52:39.920
i i've just never seen it really works but it doesn't work at all first of all i mean just the
01:52:47.040
fact that you're putting a lesser value on the darker skin color is so obviously insulting i mean i
01:52:55.200
it's so blatantly insulting i guess they're trying to say this is the reality but basically if you know if
01:53:01.840
richard spencer became the head of the postal service would he change the
01:53:05.280
the the would he change the uh the way these these stamps were designed i don't i don't think he
01:53:12.400
would if richard spencer were in charge here's the way the stamps would work the lighter the color the
01:53:18.960
more uh the more value it would have the darker the color the less value it would have so i mean
01:53:25.840
they're just it's a nazi thing yeah he's they're implementing like some racist fever dream here uh
01:53:31.280
uh that they would somehow gain the power to be able to do this is completely nuts they are not
01:53:37.920
capable of implementing this themselves so instead the government of spain is like well we'll just do
01:53:44.720
it and we'll implement the racist fever dream so we can make the point that that's what they really
01:53:50.000
want which of course is not it's not possible to happen anyway but that goes beyond just how ridiculous
01:53:56.960
this is this is this is just permeating society in such a weird way it's like it really did feel
01:54:01.600
like we had uh got we got past this we got to a point where sure racism still existed there were
01:54:08.720
still david dukes of the world that were out there but generally speaking you know race was not the
01:54:14.400
number one thing everyone thought about every day unless you were some sort of identitarian now we have
01:54:22.240
an entire society pushing us to become identitarians i don't know why anyone would want that i think it's
01:54:28.640
a terrible idea but it does seem to be where we're going no by the way um an update on the most dangerous
01:54:36.960
attack uh on our republic since perhaps the civil war maybe even earlier uh uh the january 6th you know we're
01:54:47.200
we're we're on the lookout for white terrorists um could i could you please play cut 25 cut 25
01:55:07.040
no that's 26 25 one before that please that was yankee stadium yeah that is what our level game it was
01:55:24.800
and when that time of coming and rat and tap-tat cracker we'll kill everything white in sight they ain't right
01:55:30.640
now because all what you have done to us all what you've done with the 6 000 year span of killing 600
01:55:38.400
millions of us and four hundred and eighty years in particular and 150 million in the past that's
01:55:45.520
time the day is up because this is the time and this is the state of the race of dress because they
01:55:52.400
are a race they're trying to hold on to power because the race has beginning and the ending and your
01:55:59.120
indian time has led up to 1914 no good pecker one no no good pecker one of the rebirth of the black
01:56:07.840
nations and the salvation of us in the hells of north america and throughout the african world of
01:56:16.400
this is the time when malcolm talked about a time that we put our difference to the sides
01:56:21.840
that's right and when we come out we come out with a united front and our united front today is all
01:56:28.400
the black revolutionary progressive strong uncompromising organizations here in the
01:56:34.480
health of north america that will give this crack of hell from the cradle to the grave
01:56:42.400
so they're going to give the cracker hell from the cradle to the grave i don't know if you caught
01:56:48.400
that stew and they're also going to kill everything white in sight uh i wouldn't worry about it i
01:56:56.000
wouldn't worry about it really you know it well it did sound a little like louis farrakhan uh but uh
01:57:04.000
you know has louis farrakhan ever killed anybody don't answer that um let me let's see if i can rephrase
01:57:11.600
that has louis farrakhan uh killed more than one person i don't know i frankly don't know yeah
01:57:21.360
i don't know i don't know no idea but i will say uh watch out for those january 6th rioters
01:57:28.240
i i look i it's it's so it's you know this is everywhere right now like there's this you know i'm
01:57:34.960
sure you've been up on the on this because it's sports related glenn but uh there is a controversy
01:57:40.080
where kairi irving is a basketball player who believes the earth is flat he uh he went to um
01:57:45.840
the boston celtic i'm sorry i'm i'm sorry i just i could you repeat that i missed yeah sure i think
01:57:51.040
i misheard the boston celtics yes okay okay and uh he believes the earth is right and so he went to
01:57:57.360
uh the boston celtics okay hang on hang on can we not skip over the earth was flat i think that's what
01:58:02.800
i'm hearing that is that actually believes the earth is flat yeah he did say this in a podcast at one
01:58:08.880
point um he believed the earth was flat and he doesn't see any curvature uh and so okay he's
01:58:16.080
all right since and we're listening to oh we're listening to him uh and further comments why well
01:58:22.880
because he's saying the right thing about race see even a guy who thinks the earth is flat if they say
01:58:28.640
the right thing if they say the right anti-racist thing on the right day they can still be listened
01:58:34.080
to because their opinion is vital um so this guy went to the boston celtics and told you know was
01:58:39.840
made a big deal about it they paid millions and millions of dollars they were going to win all
01:58:42.800
these multiple championships and then he completely quit on the team right to completely quit on the
01:58:47.680
team and leaves to go to another city to build a super team with other superstars uh in in uh in
01:58:54.000
brooklyn so boston doesn't really like them all that much right and they're not they're no longer fans
01:59:00.080
so they're playing each other in the playoffs right now and so as they're about to play in boston
01:59:07.680
kyrie irving says you know i just hope it's about basketball not all that racism you know the boston
01:59:13.840
people the racism is strong in boston and i just hope that they're not racist to me when i get there
01:59:20.560
now this flies in the face of his 2019 story about when he said he had never seen any racism in boston
01:59:28.240
but he's updated his opinion and now boston is very racist so as he goes to play this in this
01:59:36.080
you know city where he's criticized them as racist and abandoned them after taking millions of dollars
01:59:41.440
as he's walking off the court someone throws a water bottle at him that is now evidence that he was right
01:59:47.440
boston is a racist town uh racism is a huge deal obviously everyone's racist against kyrie irving not
01:59:55.200
worried about the whole what was the uh-huh what was the bottle shaped as well it was shaped like a
02:00:02.160
bottle yeah no i all right all right all right let me show you a bottle here okay what does this look
02:00:08.000
like what what kind of shape is that here a bottle no it's a it's it's like if this were the head this
02:00:14.400
would be the neck they even call it the neck of the bottle okay you know okay so it's kind of shaped
02:00:19.440
like a weird you know oddly shaped person well i don't think anything could be shaped like an oddly
02:00:26.320
shaped anything if it's oddly shaped then it wouldn't be shaped like it no i think when you
02:00:31.040
when you're looking at a water bottle you're immediately thinking that's a person and really
02:00:37.200
i think that's a person and it's a white person because most water bottles have white caps i think
02:00:42.960
that is a clan member so a clan member attacked him uh this weekend was it this weekend where the clan
02:00:52.160
was attacking him i think man i feel oh wow what what do you think that's more bizarre than the earth is flat
