00:01:00.060 The show begins in a minute.
00:01:02.100 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:29.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:38.080 Hello, America.
00:01:39.760 Live from Syria.
00:01:42.640 Or maybe it's just California.
00:01:45.200 We're in Texas, but it feels like Syria.
00:01:49.220 Can't use water today, at least in my hometown, because it could be poop water.
00:01:57.860 Congratulations on that.
00:01:59.220 You got to boil all of your water now.
00:02:01.700 Electricity grids in Texas are down like crazy.
00:02:05.100 We're having a gas shortage, a natural gas shortage in Texas.
00:02:12.060 We are down at about one degree in Texas.
00:02:16.080 This is a 40-year storm, and it is like living on another planet.
00:02:21.760 It's really like, I mean, we're making California look good today.
00:02:27.800 We're going to talk a little bit about that because it doesn't affect the entire country.
00:02:31.500 But boy, oh boy, is it a wake-up call yet again?
00:02:35.560 How many more do we need?
00:02:37.220 Puerto Rico is about to become a state.
00:02:40.180 Yay!
00:02:42.300 Biden has pulled 65 Trump administrative laws out, which is going to dramatically affect employment.
00:02:54.720 Gun control is being pushed.
00:02:58.340 And Bitcoin is up to $50 a coin.
00:03:01.580 Gee, I wonder why.
00:03:03.440 All of this and more, we begin in 60 seconds.
00:03:06.740 So Megan lives in California, and in her mid-30s, she was in a horrible car accident,
00:03:16.180 left her with shooting pains down her neck and her back.
00:03:18.780 It got so bad that she was going to a chiropractor and an acupuncturist six times a week.
00:03:24.720 That's when she heard about Relief Factor, decided to give it a try.
00:03:27.500 Well, within two days, her pain began to subside, and within a couple of weeks, she was back to normal.
00:03:33.420 No more trips to the chiropractor.
00:03:35.080 No more trips to the acupuncturist.
00:03:37.440 Megan considers her discovery of Relief Factor nothing short of a miracle.
00:03:43.480 Living with pain like that is no way to go through your life.
00:03:47.580 Life begins to lose its meaning.
00:03:50.160 I know.
00:03:50.780 I've been there.
00:03:51.940 Relief Factor is not a drug.
00:03:53.500 It was developed by doctors, and 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more because it works.
00:03:58.460 So try the three-week quick start and see if it works for you.
00:04:01.860 The trial pack is only $19.95.
00:04:04.020 It's relieffactor.com.
00:04:05.460 That's relieffactor.com.
00:04:07.300 800-500-8384.
00:04:13.260 Holy.
00:04:15.100 Holy cow.
00:04:16.040 We welcome Pat Gray into the studio, one of the brave that attempted to weather the roads, which are not so bad.
00:04:26.840 The highways aren't so bad.
00:04:27.840 The problem with Texas is we don't have any snow plows.
00:04:32.280 We don't have any...
00:04:33.640 Well, we have four.
00:04:34.220 Well, it's a good thing.
00:04:36.140 The size of, I don't know, Delaware?
00:04:38.420 Yeah.
00:04:38.620 From Texarkana, Texas down to Brownsville, Texas is the same distance from Texarkana, Texas to Chicago.
00:04:48.420 So it's an enormous state.
00:04:51.280 And we've got four snow plows, which not really a help when you have snow all over the state.
00:04:57.820 Of course, we know global warming.
00:05:00.140 Or is it global cooling?
00:05:01.920 It's global climate change.
00:05:03.320 It's global something.
00:05:04.260 Now, disregard the fact that this happened 40 years ago, you know, when it was global cooling.
00:05:11.900 But it hasn't been this bad.
00:05:14.260 And Texas is just not prepared for it.
00:05:17.560 We're expecting another four to six inches of snow tomorrow.
00:05:22.320 And we don't have this weather ever.
00:05:25.640 The last time we had weather like this was 10 years ago.
00:05:28.540 And we just got sleet.
00:05:31.940 And everything was iced over.
00:05:34.780 I mean, nothing moved in portions of Texas.
00:05:38.660 This is almost the entire state of Texas.
00:05:42.820 The electricity, we have all these windmills.
00:05:48.520 They are all frozen.
00:05:50.080 Frozen solid.
00:05:51.340 So we're not producing any wind energy.
00:05:53.380 Nuclear power plants offline.
00:05:54.660 We have our gas and coal plants that make energy.
00:06:00.960 They're also offline because of they're frozen.
00:06:04.440 They're frozen solid.
00:06:05.740 We don't insulate things like they do up north because we don't ever have this weather.
00:06:11.940 I think maybe Texas should reevaluate that just a little bit.
00:06:16.980 Like I said, in my town, same as yours, right?
00:06:20.860 Yeah.
00:06:21.560 Got to boil.
00:06:22.400 Yeah, the sewage treatment plant went down and I guess some pipes burst, et cetera, et cetera.
00:06:28.140 So now our drinking water may be mixed with poop water, which I love.
00:06:33.120 I love.
00:06:33.660 Who doesn't?
00:06:34.480 Yeah, I like my water chunky.
00:06:38.620 It is nothing better.
00:06:40.200 Fortunately, I gave up on tap water a long time ago.
00:06:43.340 Although you cook with it, you know, so you're going to have to-
00:06:45.700 You brush your teeth with it.
00:06:46.340 Yeah.
00:06:46.820 Take a shower with it.
00:06:47.920 Yeah.
00:06:48.260 I mean, you know.
00:06:50.000 It's nasty.
00:06:50.480 It is nasty.
00:06:51.500 So let's talk about the news outside of Texas, which quite honestly makes me want to talk
00:06:58.980 about the news inside of Texas a little bit more.
00:07:02.180 Puerto Rican statehood looks like it is on its way to happening.
00:07:08.040 Puerto Rico has held six non-binding referendums on its status, including becoming a U.S.
00:07:13.720 state since 1967.
00:07:16.500 However, the residents there have most recently voted in favor of statehood.
00:07:21.200 That was last September.
00:07:23.460 Sorry.
00:07:23.740 Last November.
00:07:24.660 This has, I guess, a lot to do with Hurricane Maria, which caused over 3,000 deaths and the
00:07:33.880 worst natural disaster to hit the island to date that we know of.
00:07:37.800 Also, they have $72 billion in debt.
00:07:41.500 They can't file for bankruptcy.
00:07:43.300 So why not just push it into the federal government?
00:07:46.260 I don't mind paying for Puerto Rico.
00:07:47.720 Do you?
00:07:48.320 No.
00:07:49.180 Yeah.
00:07:49.900 I mean, I actually have less of a problem paying for Puerto Rico than I do for California.
00:07:55.860 I mean, I have a real problem paying for California.
00:07:59.120 If California and New York and Illinois start pushing all of their state debt into the Fed,
00:08:06.180 I am really pissed off.
00:08:08.240 I'm really pissed off.
00:08:09.180 I didn't live there when I did live in New York.
00:08:13.060 I voted against it because I knew it was insanity.
00:08:17.060 Anyway, it looks like the current governor, who is part of the new progressive party.
00:08:24.560 That's not even the Democratic Party.
00:08:26.360 This is the new progressive party, is very, very excited about this.
00:08:32.820 And it looks like the Democrats are going to push it through.
00:08:39.180 So, we've got that going for us.
00:08:43.080 But don't worry.
00:08:44.560 Congress could stop it.
00:08:49.280 And don't forget, Washington, D.C. could also become a state.
00:08:54.840 Well, yeah.
00:08:56.200 Isn't that great?
00:08:57.060 So, yeah.
00:08:57.420 So, you've got that going for you.
00:08:58.320 Now, here's a state.
00:08:59.200 You've got two super Democratic states about to be added.
00:09:01.600 Here's a state that they're going to make sure doesn't become a state.
00:09:05.400 And that is Jefferson.
00:09:08.860 Is it Jefferson?
00:09:10.180 The state of Jefferson or Jeffersonian?
00:09:13.820 I never heard of it.
00:09:15.260 And I grew up in the West Coast.
00:09:16.420 But there is a movement now in Northern California that is saying they want to break free.
00:09:22.920 They don't feel that they are being represented at all by the California legislature.
00:09:28.600 And they are conservatives.
00:09:30.440 And they want to become their own state.
00:09:32.840 Do you remember, Pat, were we still together in the 90s when I read some things from, I think it was Dugan, Alexander Dugan, that said the United States was going to break up into five districts.
00:09:50.180 And when he was asked, how do you know that, he said, by 20, what was it, 2020 or 2015, something like that, the United States would be in a civil war.
00:10:04.260 And we would eventually break up into five different districts.
00:10:09.120 And when asked why he knew that, he said, because we have people on the ground, meaning they have people pushing for that.
00:10:17.960 And I could see that happening quickly.
00:10:22.160 Yeah.
00:10:23.160 Unfortunately, we also have something really, really great happening in the military now.
00:10:29.020 The latest on the Pentagon.
00:10:34.460 The Pentagon is not focusing on the Islamic State or the threat from China or the threat from any place else.
00:10:45.180 They are now doing everything they can to look at the threat from within.
00:10:52.240 President Joe Biden is continuing to not focus on China.
00:10:58.380 In fact, strengthen China while promoting social justice inside the Pentagon.
00:11:05.600 His first military-related executive order was to overturn Trump's transgender policy, which I think we were all fighting for.
00:11:15.080 Were we not?
00:11:15.660 We were like, this fairness has got to be upheld here.
00:11:21.160 And somebody needs to free all the transgenders from the oppression in the military.
00:11:27.220 Lloyd Austin, his defense secretary, the first African-American to serve in that position, Austin vowed during his confirmation hearing to rid the military of racists and extremists.
00:11:39.620 Now, I wasn't aware that there were racists and extremists in the military.
00:11:45.860 I mean, I knew that there were jihadists.
00:11:48.160 Sure.
00:11:49.200 Knew that.
00:11:49.960 But we weren't supposed to talk about it.
00:11:52.420 So he wants to get rid of racists and extremists.
00:11:56.780 Here's the problem.
00:11:58.480 Pat, when you go looking for something and you know that it's there, do you generally find it?
00:12:05.180 Generally, yes.
00:12:06.320 Yes.
00:12:06.920 You generally.
00:12:07.620 You know, it's like, have you ever worked at a place where a consultant comes in and the management hires a consultant and says, look, here's what the problem is.
00:12:16.480 The problem is, is we've got X, Y and Z and all the employees are like, that's not the problem.
00:12:22.100 The problem is the management.
00:12:24.700 What are the consultants usually find a B and C or X, Y and Z?
00:12:30.000 They always find X, Y and Z.
00:12:34.620 That's what's happening in the Pentagon now.
00:12:37.740 And I want any white extremists out.
00:12:41.280 I want anybody.
00:12:42.280 But what's happening now is.
00:12:46.800 The Department of Defense.
00:12:49.540 Was notified by the FDI 143 times of investigations of former and current military members in 2020, 68 of the times pertain to domestic extremist cases.
00:13:05.960 With the vast majority, former military, many unfavorable discharge records, and only one fourth or 17 had anything to do with white nationalism.
00:13:18.920 So out of 68 times, there were extremists.
00:13:22.840 17 of them had to do with white nationalism.
00:13:26.920 What's really interesting in this story is it doesn't tell me what the others were.
00:13:32.560 The military still has not given even the House Armed Services Committee, the Oversight Committee in Congress, a definition of extremists.
00:13:47.820 We don't know what they're even looking for.
00:13:51.640 They won't.
00:13:54.020 Define the word.
00:13:55.820 The problem here is that they are going to find what they want, and we're now going to politicize our military.
00:14:08.340 On another front, the now-president Joe Biden has pulled 65 pending Trump administration executive orders.
00:14:19.620 Several of the withdrawals strike down orders that would protect American jobs by tightening immigration restrictions, eliminating proposed oversight regulations on how China-backed Confucius Institute operate on campus.
00:14:36.960 This is obscene what is going on.
00:14:41.640 Right now, under current law, outgoing aliens released from custody can seek legal employment.
00:14:50.360 This has now been withdrawn.
00:14:53.240 We were saying, no, you can't do that.
00:14:57.640 The Trump orders were protecting American workers.
00:15:01.180 Between what he's doing with China and what he's doing with immigration, we have some serious problems coming our way.
00:15:12.100 But the good news is the Biden administration over the weekend said, quote, this administration will not wait for the next mass shooting.
00:15:24.100 He is calling for universal background checks.
00:15:27.280 We have that.
00:15:29.160 We have that.
00:15:30.060 An assault weapons ban.
00:15:33.320 We did that.
00:15:34.540 It did nothing.
00:15:36.280 We did it in the 90s.
00:15:37.980 It did nothing.
00:15:40.480 And legal liability for gun makers.
00:15:44.220 Now, what does that mean?
00:15:46.300 That means if you use the weapon and you kill someone, someone can sue the gun manufacturer.
00:15:55.840 That's like using a car and suing General Motors because you went on a walkway and drove over a lot of people.
00:16:08.320 Now, if the car has automatic pilot and you couldn't turn it off and it caused you to drive, then you could sue GM.
00:16:16.120 But if you chose to drive on a sidewalk and kill a lot of people, you can't sue GM.
00:16:25.220 Under Biden, you'll be able to sue the gun makers.
00:16:33.000 They are going to make it impossible for Americans to be able to defend themselves.
00:16:45.320 By the way, Swalwell has said in the wake of the Capitol riot, we need a 9-11 commission, a white nationalism task force.
00:16:55.620 Holy mother of everything that is good and sacred.
00:17:01.200 We need a white nationalism task force.
00:17:07.900 So now they're pushing for a 9-11 commission.
00:17:11.920 And the guy who is doing it is Swalwell.
00:17:15.160 There's no moving on.
00:17:16.200 January 6th is the day that we'll all sadly remember.
00:17:18.960 I think we have to take an approach that we took after September 11th to root out white nationalism.
00:17:24.280 What about the ballpark?
00:17:27.540 Why didn't we have a 9-11 commission after they tried to shoot all of the Republican congressmen?
00:17:38.040 Why?
00:17:38.600 Why didn't we do that?
00:17:42.560 By the way, Swalwell is he said that he is sure that God herself.
00:17:51.440 God herself was proud of all of this.
00:17:55.360 So he knows that God is a female, which I think we can't say that he's a hypocrite on that because he was with Christine Fang.
00:18:05.500 And while he was doing the Fang Bang, we heard him scream, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, many times.
00:18:11.260 So maybe God's not only a female, but also Chinese and a spy.

00:19:14.320 Ten seconds, station ID.
00:19:31.240 By the way, if you use Instagram, that's a Facebook product.
00:19:35.380 They have announced policing of private direct messages.
00:19:39.920 So now if you're direct messaging somebody in private, the hate speech crackdown police will be reviewing all of your private messages.
00:19:53.980 And this is going to come if you have Google Mail.
00:19:56.760 This is all going to come to you.
00:19:58.720 These they're already reading your mail.
00:20:01.820 The algorithms already reading your mail and you're already being sorted right now.
00:20:07.780 But I think that's good that Instagram can and look at everything that we're we're doing.
00:20:13.100 I think that's that's wonderful.
00:20:16.400 How about you, Pat?
00:20:17.240 Oh, I love it.
00:20:18.300 Yeah, I love it.
00:20:19.800 Yeah, because if anybody knows, you know, what's hateful.
00:20:23.800 I think that's Instagram.
00:20:26.300 Don't you?
00:20:26.840 Don't you?
00:20:27.400 Yeah, I do.
00:20:28.080 I do.
00:20:29.040 I think the Pinterest people are probably a little head ahead of Instagram.
00:20:34.080 Really?
00:20:34.420 Yeah, because they're just they're remarkable.
00:20:36.880 Snapchat.
00:20:37.340 Snapchat.
00:20:38.180 Yeah, they're great.
00:20:39.020 They're great.
00:20:39.660 They know better than all of us, really.
00:20:41.860 By the way, Netanyahu has claimed that we have great ties.
00:20:46.020 Israel has great ties with Democrats.
00:20:48.880 But Biden still hasn't called Prime Minister Netanyahu.
00:20:55.220 You'd think that as a pretty important ally, you know, but maybe the phones are out, you know.
00:21:01.600 Yeah.
00:21:01.920 In Israel or Jen Psaki couldn't even really respond to whether or not Israel was an important ally.
00:21:08.820 Really?
00:21:09.680 Yeah.
00:21:10.140 Yeah.
00:21:10.560 That's interesting.
00:21:11.260 She had a hard time figuring that one out when she was asked.
00:21:15.940 Uh-huh.
00:21:16.280 Uh-huh.
00:21:17.160 Uh-huh.
00:21:18.680 Then we have Bitcoin at a near record high of $50,000 a coin.
00:21:24.720 Wait, that's near record?
00:21:26.320 That's not the record?
00:21:27.280 That is.
00:21:28.000 Yeah.
00:21:28.360 Yeah.
00:21:28.860 Nearly $50,000.
00:21:30.220 $50,000.
00:21:31.900 $50,000.
00:21:33.040 $50,000 a coin.
00:21:36.060 That's nuts.
00:21:36.540 How I wish I would have bought a bunch of them at 36 cents.
00:21:40.480 $300,000.
00:21:41.300 $5,000.
00:21:42.760 Right.
00:21:43.220 $10,000.
00:21:43.820 $20,000.
00:21:44.440 Well, I remember we discussed it really seriously at $1,000.
00:21:48.340 And you didn't do it.
00:21:49.060 And I didn't do it.
00:21:49.760 And you didn't do it.
00:21:50.400 And I was going to do it.
00:21:51.340 And I was going to buy like 10 of them.
00:21:52.980 Yeah.
00:21:53.780 But you didn't do it.
00:21:54.680 But I didn't do it.
00:21:55.420 You didn't do it.
00:21:55.980 No, I didn't do it.
00:21:56.600 I didn't do it.
00:21:57.820 I did.
00:21:58.920 I did.
00:21:59.200 I know you did.
00:21:59.960 Yeah, I did.
00:22:00.400 I know you did.
00:22:01.760 Yeah.
00:22:02.180 So that's a different story.
00:22:02.760 It took me a lot.
00:22:03.480 I almost sold them all when they collapsed.
00:22:05.800 I almost sold them all.
00:22:06.900 Yeah.
00:22:07.800 Glad I didn't.
00:22:08.240 But you didn't.
00:22:08.960 I didn't.
00:22:09.840 I didn't.
00:22:10.720 So glad.
00:22:11.340 When will you sell?
00:22:12.920 Or will you?
00:22:14.040 I don't know if I will.
00:22:15.520 Keep it going?
00:22:16.000 Yeah.
00:22:16.560 I think it goes to at least $100,000.
00:22:19.600 Do you really?
00:22:20.320 Yeah.
00:22:21.000 I think it could.
00:22:21.980 Wow.
00:22:22.220 Citibank is saying that it could go up to $150,000 in the next 12 months.
00:22:26.920 $150,000.
00:22:27.680 Yeah.
00:22:28.140 Holy cow.
00:22:28.680 I mean, if you don't have money in Bitcoin, even $500, you don't have to buy a full coin.
00:22:35.900 You might want to consider it.
00:22:37.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:42.880 All right.
00:22:43.960 Let me tell you about Rough Greens.
00:22:45.560 Ever since he tried Rough Greens for the first time, my dog Uno is a completely different dog.
00:22:52.600 All the time, I'm getting emails from people who are saying they had exactly the same experience.
00:22:58.020 They heard me talking about Rough Greens.
00:23:00.240 I fed it to my dog.
00:23:01.460 Pat fed it to his dog.
00:23:03.920 And it is.
00:23:04.880 They wolf it down.
00:23:06.540 She won't.
00:23:07.000 She won't eat her food without it.
00:23:09.360 Really?
00:23:09.880 Yeah.
00:23:10.440 She just turns up her nose if it's not sprinkled on top.
00:23:13.060 Have you seen a difference in your dog besides that?
00:23:16.000 She acts like a puppy again, where she was getting a little lethargic, but now she's
00:23:22.000 very puppy-like.
00:23:22.880 Goes and gets her toys and brings them to you for the throw.
00:23:25.940 Uno is crazy.
00:23:28.120 He is just a totally different dog.
00:23:31.100 And he's bringing his big Kong ball all the time with him and wants to play all the time.
00:23:37.820 I want you to try Rough Greens now for your dog.

00:24:07.160 Oh, man.
00:24:11.720 I am so glad that we have rejoined the Paris Accords so we could get rid of all of this
00:24:17.540 global warming and global cooling that is going on.
00:24:21.380 I just want to throw this in.
00:24:24.940 A French court has declared that France is guilty of failing of meeting its own climate
00:24:32.120 change goals.
00:24:33.020 So France is not, you know, living up to the Paris Agreement.
00:24:38.780 But, you know, they probably can't read it in a different language.
00:24:42.600 You know, it's in French.
00:24:44.580 So they were the ones who brokered the international treaty, committed to reducing greenhouse gases
00:24:51.480 by 40 percent by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2050.
00:24:58.460 Unfortunately, it looks like they're not going to be able to make that.
00:25:03.020 So they've got they've got some real problems.
00:25:08.780 They have to pay now one euro, one dollar and 20 cents, one euro.
00:25:15.200 This, according to the court, for moral damage to each of the associations behind the lawsuit.
00:25:23.000 And that could I mean, I'm I'm suing them because I'm so upset about it.
00:25:28.600 So it could I could, you know, just that could be hundreds of euros.
00:25:34.280 We we just don't know at this time.
00:25:37.260 Meanwhile, China, who is has declared that they will be carbon neutral by 2060.
00:25:45.800 They are making great progress.
00:25:49.920 Great progress.
00:25:51.280 They built three times as many coal plants in 2020 as the rest of the world combined.
00:26:00.540 But just three times.
00:26:01.440 It's not like 30 times.
00:26:03.040 Exactly right.
00:26:03.820 It could have been.
00:26:04.560 They would have been 30.
00:26:05.440 About 30.
00:26:06.080 Yeah.
00:26:06.240 And they were like, let's cut it down to just three times the rest of the world combined.
00:26:10.780 And the voice of America news has has observed.
00:26:17.140 Now, remember, when you hear voice of America, you know, freedom is on the other side of that microphone.
00:26:23.820 Oh, yeah.
00:26:24.200 You know what I mean?
00:26:25.520 And they said that this would seem to undermine China's short term climate goals.
00:26:33.160 What?
00:26:33.640 But yeah, it would see according to voice of America, it would seem to to undermine their
00:26:41.800 their short term climate goals.
00:26:44.460 But President Xi Jinping has promised to make his country carbon neutral by 2060.
00:26:52.600 So voice of America would like us to know that they're going to make up for that in the long run.
00:26:58.160 Just bang.
00:26:58.980 Just 40 years from now.
00:27:00.020 Yeah.
00:27:00.340 It's just going to take care of that.
00:27:01.500 It's going to happen.
00:27:02.260 Yeah.
00:27:02.640 Yeah.
00:27:03.300 That's fantastic.
00:27:04.420 They have a total under construction of 88.1 gigawatts of power.
00:27:13.740 88.1 gigawatts.
00:27:15.740 Isn't it 121 gigawatts?
00:27:17.620 No, it's 1.21 gigawatts in Back to the Future.
00:27:22.260 1.21 gigawatts.
00:27:25.060 Wow.
00:27:25.500 So they're under construction.
00:27:27.960 China now has 88.1 gigawatts.
00:27:30.660 I mean, they could go back to the future at any point, 88 times.
00:27:35.040 And is it a coincidence?
00:27:36.680 88.
00:27:38.080 How fast did the car have to go?
00:27:40.040 88 miles an hour.
00:27:41.440 It's not a coincidence.
00:27:42.760 That's why they can promise that they are going to be able to do it in the future because
00:27:47.100 they've already been there.
00:27:48.320 They know.
00:27:49.660 They know.
00:27:50.440 So we have that going for us.
00:27:55.220 Meanwhile, Texas is a little frigid.
00:27:58.720 Yeah.
00:27:58.920 Yeah, our infrastructure just doesn't seem to be what we thought it was.
00:28:04.460 Did you see Germany is deciding that maybe we need to do more oil and gas energy because
00:28:14.780 what we're using, you know, the solar and wind, well, all our solar panels are frozen and covered
00:28:23.340 with snow and all, like Texas, all our wind turbines are frozen solid.
00:28:29.160 And so we don't have any power from that.
00:28:31.180 That is weird.
00:28:32.120 Yeah.
00:28:32.320 Do you remember the old windmills in Holland?
00:28:36.220 Because I mean, maybe, but I don't remember ever.
00:28:40.780 Did they free solid?
00:28:42.920 I don't have to look into that because I don't remember it happening.
00:28:45.900 Yeah.
00:28:46.640 I mean, I wasn't around in the, you know, in the 1500s, but Jeffy was.
00:28:51.840 So we got that going for it.
00:28:53.120 And Joe Biden was.
00:28:54.620 So we know.
00:28:55.460 Right.
00:28:56.000 We know he knows.
00:28:59.220 So that's good.
00:29:00.820 That's good.
00:29:01.520 Yeah, this is interesting because one of their scientists, Professor Schwartz, explained the
00:29:08.600 problem that's going on in Germany.
00:29:10.500 And he said, with this supply of wind and photovoltaic energy, which is solar energy, we
00:29:17.400 have between zero and two or three percent energy from wind and solar.
00:29:23.540 That is de facto zero.
00:29:25.220 You can see it in many diagrams that we have days and weeks in the year where we have neither
00:29:32.660 wind nor PV photovoltaic, especially this time.
00:29:37.180 For example, there is no wind and no PV.
00:29:40.320 And there are oftentimes when the wind is very minuscule.
00:29:43.500 These are things I must say that have been physically established and known for centuries.
00:29:49.720 Now, wait a minute.
00:29:51.040 Hang on just a second.
00:29:52.320 You're saying Germany.
00:29:54.120 Yeah.
00:29:54.880 A place known for its beaches and sunny skies.
00:30:00.320 Right.
00:30:00.920 Right.
00:30:01.460 Right.
00:30:01.700 You're saying that people have known that there would be days and days and maybe even months
00:30:08.880 without, without, without any sun or wind.
00:30:12.120 Huh.
00:30:12.660 Yeah.
00:30:13.200 And you remember.
00:30:13.640 That comes as a shock to me.
00:30:15.420 In all the World War II movies, it looks so toasty and warm and tropical, doesn't it?
00:30:19.400 It does.
00:30:19.940 And so.
00:30:20.320 It always looked.
00:30:21.260 They were in battle.
00:30:22.080 They were fooled.
00:30:22.220 We would be there and you'd be like, why is everybody in the German, remember the little
00:30:27.540 short shorts that the German officers used to wear?
00:30:30.880 Yeah.
00:30:31.320 The tank tops and the short shorts.
00:30:33.100 Right.
00:30:33.480 Because it was so freaking hot.
00:30:35.960 Yeah.
00:30:36.380 It was so hot.
00:30:37.440 And that's what I thought too.
00:30:39.140 I, sometimes because it was the Uber race, you thought they're hot.
00:30:43.520 Right.
00:30:43.960 And you just thought people meant that as they were good looking and no, no, they were actually
00:30:49.820 very warm.
00:30:50.920 Very warm.
00:30:51.380 In, uh, in the front.
00:30:52.740 And that happened in Russia too.
00:30:54.380 I understand.
00:30:55.120 I understand.
00:30:56.260 Russia known for its beaches.
00:30:59.380 Uh, it's sunny, sunny days.
00:31:01.880 Yeah.
00:31:02.300 Yeah.
00:31:02.800 I have, I have, uh, I have solar panels and you know when they don't work?
00:31:07.440 Um, clouds, the winter.
00:31:09.800 Yeah.
00:31:10.180 And winter, winter and night.
00:31:12.160 It's crazy.
00:31:13.220 It's crazy.
00:31:14.060 Uh, that's when they don't work.
00:31:16.060 Um, as long as you have a direct line of sight to the giant flaming ball of gas up in
00:31:23.080 the sky, then it's okay.
00:31:24.200 Then it's fine.
00:31:25.020 Now I'm not a scientist.
00:31:26.220 I don't even know what that flaming.
00:31:29.080 I mean, I got up just the other day and I looked out and I was like, the sky is on fire.
00:31:34.220 Oh yeah.
00:31:34.860 And they said, no, that's a flaming ball of gas of some sort.
00:31:38.900 And as long as you, and I said, I'm against gas.
00:31:42.120 Okay.
00:31:42.760 Oh yeah.
00:31:43.100 That's a petroleum.
00:31:44.160 That's dinosaurs.
00:31:45.060 So all the dinosaurs in space that died collected in that flaming ball in that flaming ball and
00:31:52.220 they're burning fossil fuels.
00:31:53.720 And that is not something I'm for.
00:31:56.280 You shouldn't be doing that.
00:31:57.400 So should not be doing that.
00:31:59.080 You got that.
00:31:59.840 Uh, you got that going for you.
00:32:01.240 So good news.
00:32:02.580 We are, we are getting, uh, deeper and deeper into the, uh, you know, the green thing, which
00:32:09.940 I think we're all for.
00:32:11.400 Um, I, I will tell you that, uh, uh, Jaguar has announced that by what is it?
00:32:18.080 2025, 2024, uh, all of their cars will be.
00:32:23.720 Uh, electric.
00:32:25.480 No, in four years.
00:32:27.160 Uh, let me look, let me look.
00:32:28.380 I've got to find it here.
00:32:29.480 Wow.
00:32:30.160 Uh, yeah, it's, it's.
00:32:31.680 Wow.
00:32:32.300 Shockingly close.
00:32:33.940 Shockingly close.
00:32:34.540 Cause even GM is saying what?
00:32:36.200 20, 20, 25.
00:32:38.440 GM is saying 20, 35.
00:32:40.160 I think.
00:32:41.040 I believe Jaguar is a GM product or is it Ford now?
00:32:47.860 Uh, Jaguar, Jaguar Land Rover's luxury Jaguar brand will be entire.
00:32:53.720 Early electric by 2025.
00:32:56.360 Wow.
00:32:57.300 And we'll launch E models of its entire lineup by 2030.
00:33:01.720 That seems impossible.
00:33:03.120 Uh, yeah.
00:33:04.320 The high performance E type model in the sixties and seventies.
00:33:08.440 Jaguar faces the same challenge as other car makers, making his transition to electric vehicles
00:33:13.160 while retaining its feeling and power of luxury combustion engine model.
00:33:17.660 Uh, I mean, there, I'm telling you, you're not going to be able to own a fossil fuel car.
00:33:24.640 Soon.
00:33:25.260 20, 30, 35.
00:33:27.780 Really soon.
00:33:28.500 Yeah.
00:33:29.040 And what is the deal with the, can Jaguar go further than 300 miles on a charge?
00:33:35.380 I mean, have they fixed the battery problem?
00:33:37.840 That's, that's the deal is nobody, including Tesla has fixed that problem.
00:33:43.660 You got to stop and recharge for 45 minutes or an hour.
00:33:48.280 Where are you going to go?
00:33:49.940 Where are you going to go?
00:33:51.600 I mean, you don't have to really leave your house.
00:33:54.920 No, I really do.
00:33:56.080 Sometimes I'll, I'll take off and go 700 or 800 miles.
00:33:59.560 Why?
00:33:59.920 Uh, to see other people that you don't want to see other people, family, friends.
00:34:04.480 Did you see?
00:34:05.040 I am not making this up.
00:34:07.060 Experts are now saying that in the United States, we will not fully be vaccinated, fully
00:34:13.360 ready to come out of this until 20, 20, seven.
00:34:24.240 That's the latest.
00:34:25.700 I had 20, 27.
00:34:28.560 Hey.
00:34:29.920 We just have to flatten the curve.
00:34:32.260 That's all we have to do.
00:34:33.700 15 days.
00:34:34.560 That's 15 days to flatten the curve or they may have said 15 years.
00:34:38.860 It's been so confusing.
00:34:39.880 I don't even, uh, may I just suggest you look for, um, vampire space bunnies, uh, because
00:34:46.480 they are coming.
00:34:47.240 They are coming and they won't be a surprise when they come.
00:34:50.540 Uh, at least to those of us who have been watching the news, a lot of people haven't been
00:34:54.400 paying attention to the news.
00:34:55.380 They'll be surprised us.
00:34:56.960 We'll look up vampire space bunnies.
00:34:59.060 Huh?
00:35:00.680 Okay.
00:35:01.280 Seems reasonable.
00:35:02.720 Patriot mobile right now.
00:35:04.160 Little ways.
00:35:04.800 Every day we can be, uh, working to make our country a better place.
00:35:08.680 Things we can do to make a difference.
00:35:10.680 One of those ways is switching.
00:35:12.780 To Patriot mobile.
00:35:16.260 Now, how is that making the country better?
00:35:18.360 Because it's taking money out, out of what you would otherwise be spending with big mobile
00:35:23.380 companies like Verizon, which give money to terrible things like planned parenthood.
00:35:28.120 Instead of putting it in the, uh, in companies that donate there, uh, would you, would you like to back a company that is putting it into the first amendment, the second amendment, fighting these battles every day?
00:35:42.280 They're pro-life.
00:35:44.380 That's where they take some of their profits and they pour it there.
00:35:47.620 This is a company that was started by, uh, former military guys that were all patriots and they figured, you know, we, we've got to have, there's got to be a better way to do all of these things and protect our constitution.
00:36:01.460 That's how it was started today.
00:36:04.060 It's rolling strong, get free premier activation where they set the phone up for you and you get a special gift with the offer code back same service, lower price and the values you believe in there on our side, the side of the constitution, patriot mobile.com slash back that's patriot mobile.com slash back or call 972 Patriot 972 Patriot or patriot mobile.com slash back.
00:36:31.460 Oh man.
00:36:34.100 So I finally understand why we need to, uh, route out these extremists and I understand now who these extremists are.
00:36:43.760 Um, there is, um, there's a, uh, new, uh, uh, study out by the Washington post and, um, they have found that people are isolated alone.
00:36:57.780 Uh, they need to express their true selves.
00:37:00.860 Uh, and that's why there's more extremists, uh, out there right now.
00:37:05.180 Um, because a lot of these people are just craving human interaction, but the Washington post would like to point out since ancient times, pandemics have spurred sharp turns in political beliefs, spawning extremist movements, wave of mistrust and wholesale rejection of authorities.
00:37:22.600 Uh, nearly a year into the coronavirus crisis, Americans are falling prey to the same phenomena, historians, theologians, and others.
00:37:30.320 Experts, uh, say that this is, uh, uh, a situation where nearly one in five said they believe in Satan, worshiping child enslaving elites seeking to control the world.
00:37:42.600 And, uh, shutdowns have paralyzed the economy in the first months of the pandemic.
00:37:47.760 And, uh, and, and when that happened, there was a sharp increase on searches online for extremist and white supremacist, uh, supremacist materials online.
00:37:57.920 Sure.
00:37:58.360 Now, I don't know about you, but when I was shut in, the first thing I thought was, how can I join the Klan?
00:38:05.060 Um, and I think, I think a lot of people, I mean, you know, let's drop the dog whistle here and, uh, you know, stop just hiding behind.
00:38:15.900 No, that's ridiculous.
00:38:17.840 Yeah.
00:38:18.600 Um, and let's just start to admit it.
00:38:21.360 Um, a British study found.
00:38:23.480 Well, they got us.
00:38:24.080 Yeah, they do.
00:38:24.840 They got us.
00:38:25.640 Uh, British study found that the pandemic boosted radicalization globally, uh, as people found more time to delve into extremist arguments.
00:38:35.200 Um, you know, when we were working, we didn't have a time.
00:38:39.040 Didn't have time to do it.
00:38:39.940 No, we didn't.
00:38:40.540 We didn't.
00:38:41.400 Um, some of these insecurities predated the pandemic.
00:38:45.280 Many of those arrested in the Capitol riot owned businesses or worked white collar jobs.
00:38:51.620 Did you know that?
00:38:52.880 No.
00:38:53.260 Yeah.
00:38:53.820 Yeah.
00:38:54.000 So, uh, and a Washington Post analysis of public records found that nearly 60% of the people facing charges had prior money troubles.
00:39:03.680 Which means that.
00:39:05.760 They're white.
00:39:06.520 Okay.
00:39:07.020 Mm-hmm.
00:39:07.540 They had bankruptcies and unpaid.
00:39:09.640 Wait, that means they're white?
00:39:10.460 Well, of course it does.
00:39:11.360 Okay.
00:39:11.800 They were on, they were at home, COVID.
00:39:14.280 They.
00:39:14.660 Yeah.
00:39:15.200 Squandered all their money.
00:39:16.500 Yeah.
00:39:16.720 Uh, and they had unpaid taxes.
00:39:18.740 Probably on Klan material, right?
00:39:20.400 Exactly right.
00:39:21.560 Hoods.
00:39:21.840 Um, and many are involved in these things because they have been, uh, clobbered, uh, quoting the
00:39:28.680 Washington Post, clobbered for the virus related shutdowns.
00:39:33.600 Oh, wow.
00:39:34.080 And, uh, then they talked to a, uh, then they talked to a couple of, uh, uh, religious experts.
00:39:41.160 Richard Land, president of Southern Evangelical Seminary, said in a healthy society, the government,
00:39:46.340 the church would say this is nonsense and people would believe them.
00:39:49.280 Um, but, uh, you know, that, uh, check on extremist impulses by the church is not there.
00:39:55.800 Uh, over the past year, the pandemic was a constant undercurrent as Americans took to
00:40:01.440 the streets to protest racial injustice, police brutality, and president Biden's victory.
00:40:08.340 Oh, man, as we took to the streets to protest racial injustice.
00:40:13.260 I remember that.
00:40:14.260 Yeah, I do.
00:40:14.800 Police brutality.
00:40:15.980 I remember all of those.
00:40:17.120 But, uh, and president Biden's victory.
00:40:20.120 Mm-mm.
00:40:20.940 Mm-mm.
00:40:21.260 I remember one day.
00:40:22.400 I remember one day.
00:40:23.900 One day.
00:40:24.620 One day.
00:40:25.820 Yeah.
00:40:26.660 Yeah.
00:40:27.000 Yeah.
00:40:27.100 And there's still, uh, 6,000 troops in D.C. through the fall now, they're saying.
00:40:32.660 So, well, that was not only an attack, uh, as an insurrection plot, uh, and as an impromptu
00:40:38.340 meetup, uh, but it was also a social gathering, uh, for people who were defending their idea of nationhood.
00:40:46.360 Uh-huh.
00:40:47.440 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:40:49.360 Let me talk to you about, uh, American financing.
00:40:52.780 American financing is your opportunity to save hundreds, if not $1,000 or more a month, if
00:40:59.460 you are paying, hmm, three, four, five percent, uh, interest on your mortgage, uh, and if
00:41:09.820 you are paying, uh, even three percent on your mortgage and you've got a lot of credit card
00:41:14.780 debt, how much are you paying there?
00:41:16.660 You can roll that debt into your mortgage without resetting the term of your loan, get
00:41:22.340 a lower payment, and save hundreds, if not thousand dollars plus every single month.
00:41:29.180 I want you to call American financing.
00:41:31.320 They're waiting for your call now.
00:41:32.520 It's at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or Americanfinancing.net.
00:41:38.680 All right, the Texas energy grid and the Green New Deal, the Green Movement.
00:41:48.240 What's happened to Texas and how can we possibly make fun of California?
00:41:53.260 All of that and more coming up.
00:41:55.020 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and
00:42:24.780 enlightenment, this is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:34.660 Texas is going through something historic right now.
00:42:38.440 We haven't had temperatures in Texas, uh, like this since, what, 1970s?
00:42:46.560 It has been a very, very bad few days in Texas, and it's about to get worse.
00:42:53.060 We have sewage treatment plants that are now, the pipes are bursting.
00:42:59.180 We, uh, we, a lot of the state is without any power.
00:43:03.320 Three and a half million people in Texas have been without power for a while, and it's not
00:43:09.120 getting any better.
00:43:10.620 But I thought Texas was on its own grid.
00:43:12.840 I thought Texas was fine.
00:43:14.420 How can we possibly make fun of what's going on in California if we get hit by extreme weather?
00:43:20.600 Is there a difference?
00:43:22.580 And is it getting worse in Texas because of the push to green energy?
00:43:28.460 What does your future look like, America?
00:43:31.760 All that and more in 60 seconds.
00:43:34.280 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:40.320 Timeshares.
00:43:41.240 Ah, those just, those words make you just all, they fill them, they make the inside of you
00:43:47.600 very, very hot.
00:43:48.760 I would say warm, but it's more of a hot that you're feeling when I say, ah, your timeshare.
00:43:54.400 Isn't that great?
00:43:55.240 But, uh, listen, you are sending so much money, uh, out to that stupid timeshare that you
00:44:04.060 were talked into.
00:44:05.420 It is not saving you money.
00:44:07.600 You couldn't get the bank to refinance.
00:44:10.080 Do you know, do you know that you can't get a loan if you're paying on a loan for your
00:44:14.100 timeshare?
00:44:15.000 Did you know that, uh, banks won't accept it because you don't owe anything?
00:44:19.020 Do you know what the average, uh, interest rate is on a timeshare?
00:44:23.120 No.
00:44:23.420 No, 14%, 14%, what do you say?
00:44:30.980 What do you say?
00:44:31.740 I know, I know.
00:44:32.400 Nobody's going to, nobody's going to buy it from me.
00:44:34.820 I have too much self-respect to con somebody else into buying it.
00:44:38.480 That's great.
00:44:39.140 Good news.
00:44:40.520 Timeshare termination team is here and they will get you out of it and they're not going

00:45:45.840 The president and founder for the center for industrial progress, the author of the moral
00:45:52.320 case for fossil fuels, Alex Epstein is with us now.
00:45:55.420 Hello, uh, Alex, how are you?
00:45:58.440 Hey, Glenn.
00:45:59.380 Great to be back on your show.
00:46:00.620 It's great to have you.
00:46:01.780 Um, I wanted to, uh, talk to you a little bit about what's happening in Texas.
00:46:06.640 There is no way we should be having these problems in Texas with the, with our own power
00:46:13.400 grid with as much gas and oil as we have.
00:46:18.940 What the heck is happening?
00:46:23.260 Yeah.
00:46:23.780 So, I mean, this is something I've been warning about for a while in September, 2020.
00:46:29.660 So I live in California when the California blackouts were happening.
00:46:32.640 I warned on Twitter that there are similar things happening in Texas.
00:46:37.200 And so a blackout is an extreme event, but this blackout is not unprecedented.
00:46:43.640 Texas has been having what I call industrial blackouts a lot.
00:46:46.880 They call it demand management, but it basically means when there's not enough power, they have
00:46:51.740 their industrial or they'll call it curtailment.
00:46:53.920 They'll have their industrial, uh, projects stop.
00:46:57.000 You know, they'll cut off power to industrial people.
00:46:59.080 They won't cut it off to the home.
00:47:00.560 So what's happened here is the lack of ability to meet demand has just been so extreme.
00:47:06.300 And there are some unexpected events that everyone is seeing it, but it's important that this
00:47:11.000 is not an unprecedented thing.
00:47:12.860 It's just a more extreme thing.
00:47:14.560 And this is something that's happened in California.
00:47:16.140 It's happening around the country.
00:47:17.180 And the fundamental reason, whatever else is going on is the insistence on using unreliable
00:47:23.280 wind and solar energy instead of reliable energy from coal, nuclear, natural gas.
00:47:29.740 Well, why is that?
00:47:30.960 We have just one thing.
00:47:32.720 Yeah, go ahead.
00:47:33.280 We know that those sources, because there's issues of failures in Texas, and we'll talk about
00:47:37.540 that.
00:47:37.980 But we know for a fact that coal, gas and nuclear can work under any weather conditions
00:47:43.340 around the world.
00:47:44.300 So whatever is going on in Texas, it's not that coal plants don't work, gas plants don't
00:47:48.660 work.
00:47:49.320 Nuclear plants is a combination of specific mismanagement and non-preparation in Texas.
00:47:53.920 But the main thing is too much attempt to rely on unreliable energy.
00:47:58.320 And that takes away focus and funding from the reliable energy and for making it resilient.
00:48:03.060 OK, so I'm kind of caught in between.
00:48:05.940 Some people are really, really pissed.
00:48:08.580 Some people are like, well, that's what happens.
00:48:10.740 I'm somewhere in between.
00:48:11.900 There are times that I feel like I'm living in Syria.
00:48:16.220 However, I don't expect the state to spend oodles of money protecting for something that
00:48:22.060 happens once every even, you know, when it comes to salt trucks and everything else.
00:48:26.940 Why spend the money?
00:48:27.740 It happens every 10 years.
00:48:29.520 This is something that happened, you know, about every 40 or 50 years in Texas.
00:48:34.060 So I cut some slack, but I don't understand why our coal plants are down.
00:48:42.480 They are down.
00:48:43.660 Our natural gas plants are down.
00:48:46.460 Why?
00:48:48.100 Well, so there's I mean, we I don't think the ERCOTs, ERCOT is the so-called Reliability
00:48:53.640 Council of Texas.
00:48:54.700 They haven't been totally open.
00:48:56.160 So it's not easy to tell exactly what's going on.
00:48:59.000 There are a number of things that can happen.
00:49:00.320 And so one thing that they'll tend not to talk about is it's possible there's been some
00:49:04.120 just mismanagement of supply and demand.
00:49:06.260 So when demand was exceeding supply, they didn't curtail demand early enough.
00:49:10.560 And that can cause things to trip up.
00:49:12.920 It can be that specific plants aren't resilient enough.
00:49:16.480 It can be that the fuel infrastructure, there's something off with that in terms of delivery of
00:49:20.880 fuel.
00:49:21.100 And this is something that I think that will emerge.
00:49:23.580 But again, these are all things that are handled everywhere around the world.
00:49:27.460 They're not inherent in coal, gas and nuclear, whereas what you see with wind and solar is
00:49:33.320 they went completely out to lunch when they were needed most.
00:49:36.920 So no matter how, even if there had been no freezing of the wind turbines, wind would have
00:49:41.020 still been useless during very large portions of the situation.
00:49:44.880 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, why, why, why would wind turbines when there
00:49:50.540 was winds, why were wind turbines not useful?
00:49:55.340 Well, well, there, there were frozen some of them, but there wasn't wind, there wasn't
00:49:59.940 wind the whole time.
00:50:00.920 So when there has it, so a talking point for the other side has been, oh, well, not that
00:50:05.240 many of them froze.
00:50:06.180 I got, but if you look at the recent data over the last several days, there have been
00:50:09.200 times when it's been one gigawatt out of 32.
00:50:13.000 So the part of the thing is they call the capacity, they call the maximum possible wind,
00:50:17.700 the capacity, which is ridiculous.
00:50:19.420 It's just a lucky situation.
00:50:21.020 So they say, oh, we have 32 gigawatts of wind and everyone brags about that.
00:50:24.460 But when the going gets tough, you had one, two or three gigawatts of wind.
00:50:29.040 So again, they're always, people always like to talk about the peak, but the real thing
00:50:33.680 is where are they when you need them?
00:50:35.420 And the point is they're not reliable.
00:50:36.980 They're, they're basically reliable for zero.
00:50:38.860 And that's why they add so much cost, because you always have to have the unreliable infrastructure
00:50:43.600 and the reliable infrastructure.
00:50:46.720 So some greens are blaming not enough gas being online.
00:50:51.880 And that's because the green screen is a scheme requires it to be offline.
00:50:57.060 So we can get more electricity from wind, right?
00:51:01.220 Right.
00:51:01.540 Everything is engineered around trying to maximize the amount of unreliable wind that you're
00:51:07.280 using.
00:51:07.680 So the whole way the grid is working normally, that's very wasteful, is you're cycling the
00:51:11.960 gas up and down to accommodate the wind.
00:51:14.900 If you had a reliable energy infrastructure, which we used to have around the country, you
00:51:19.040 would just have a whole slate of reliable plants.
00:51:21.920 And then when you had a lot more demand, you could just ramp a lot of the reliable plants
00:51:25.900 up.
00:51:26.700 But here, what Texas is trying to do is they're trying to minimize the number of reliable plants
00:51:31.360 to cut costs.
00:51:32.500 And this is why one of the public utility people said, and I think in 2019, like, hey, we've
00:51:37.840 got a serious issue.
00:51:39.360 Our reserve margin is very scary.
00:51:41.400 Texas is notorious in electricity circles for trying to get away with the lowest reserve
00:51:45.780 margin possible, which means the smallest margin for error possible.
00:51:49.560 It's gone down dramatically because they've been trying to cut prices and use wind.
00:51:55.580 That's what happened in California.
00:51:57.040 We didn't maintain our power lines enough because we didn't want to raise prices even
00:52:02.260 more after we had inflated them with green energy.
00:52:05.260 If you don't focus on reliability, you're going to lose reliability.
00:52:09.240 So in northern climates, when it gets cold like this every single year, how do they avoid
00:52:14.900 this problem?
00:52:15.540 Are they doing less green energy than Texas is?
00:52:19.920 Well, there are two things.
00:52:21.180 I mean, so one is just they have better specific policies for their plants, and that can take all
00:52:26.120 sorts of measures, but they just figure it out.
00:52:27.700 I mean, these are, you know, these places, Texas, even in bad weather, is not as bad as
00:52:32.780 places around the world.
00:52:33.640 I mean, obviously, if places in Russia, they're using these kinds of places, places in cold
00:52:37.680 parts of Canada.
00:52:39.160 Now, what's happening, though, it's important with what I call the unreliables, so the solar
00:52:43.560 and wind.
00:52:44.220 It is possible to have a certain amount of them along with the reliable.
00:52:48.920 So people in the Midwest are saying, hey, look, our wind timbers are working.
00:52:52.940 And it's true that you can spend money and they don't necessarily ice.
00:52:56.120 But the point is they're adding costs and they don't scale because, again, you have
00:53:01.280 to pay for the unreliable energy infrastructure and the reliable energy infrastructure, plus
00:53:06.680 it's really inefficient to run a grid that way because it's like stop and go traffic for
00:53:11.380 the reliables, plus you wear them down a lot more quickly when you move them up and down.
00:53:16.000 But the real thing to notice is you cannot rely on the unreliables.
00:53:19.680 They're parasites.
00:53:20.320 And what we have as a country is a policy that's trying to get us 100 percent dependent
00:53:25.420 on these parasites.
00:53:26.820 The real lesson of Texas is not that wind turbines froze.
00:53:30.560 It's that wind and solar cannot keep us warm and powered in the winter.
00:53:35.260 And so these Green New Deal type plans are a complete fiasco.
00:53:38.520 Everybody should be asking Biden, what the hell would Texas do under your situation?
00:53:42.620 How the hell would they get power if you're going to have nearly 100 percent wind and solar,
00:53:47.100 which were totally out to lunch when they were needed most?
00:53:49.800 Geez.
00:53:50.340 Wow.
00:53:50.700 I mean, we're now buying the power, I believe, from Mexico, which is what?
00:53:57.720 So are these when people say the Texas grid, we're fine because we have our own grid in
00:54:05.640 Texas.
00:54:06.120 Have the progressive policies just pretty much dismantled any positives we had with that?
00:54:13.500 Yes.
00:54:15.620 So this is I mean, I was really scared of what was going to happen with this storm.
00:54:19.900 And my fears, unfortunately, came true.
00:54:21.900 But one thing I thought would be good in terms of a lesson is Texas does have this isolated
00:54:26.220 grid and that can be an asset or liability.
00:54:29.060 But what it really illustrates is the problem of relying on unreliable energy, because in California,
00:54:36.060 even, you know, we import 25 percent of our electricity, which at a given time can be 40 percent
00:54:41.000 of our electricity, 25 is just an average.
00:54:43.420 So we're bailed out by Nevada, Utah, Arizona.
00:54:47.360 But what happens is they start trying to have more and more unreliables.
00:54:50.940 Then we can't rely on them.
00:54:52.160 And that's what happened in the summer.
00:54:53.620 It got hot.
00:54:54.620 Wind went down.
00:54:55.500 The sun goes down every day.
00:54:56.840 People are shocked.
00:54:57.800 And we didn't have enough electricity and we couldn't get it.
00:55:01.380 So everyone is trying to play this game of get it of chicken with how much unreliable can
00:55:06.900 I use and get away with it.
00:55:08.960 And Texas is a good illustration because it's this self-contained world.
00:55:14.820 And so we need to learn that the whole U.S. cannot be like Texas.
00:55:19.020 And again, Texas is something like 20 percent wind.
00:55:22.400 It's this tiny fraction of the Biden plan.
00:55:24.820 The Biden plan says 100 percent carbon neutral grid by 2035.
00:55:30.500 That's 14 years.
00:55:31.740 And he's so possible.
00:55:32.720 He does nothing to support nuclear.
00:55:35.400 And the biggest lie, the biggest giveaway is none of these people support nuclear.
00:55:39.400 Texas has not been increasing nuclear.
00:55:41.220 If you look at Texas's plan.
00:55:43.040 So I just I just wrote about this on Twitter.
00:55:45.560 It's just Alex Twitter dot com slash Alex Epstein.
00:55:47.840 And so I wrote the statistics.
00:55:49.340 This is listen to Glenn.
00:55:51.200 Like, what would you think Texas has planned?
00:55:53.460 OK, so zero nuclear plants.
00:55:55.060 Nuclear are the most weather resilient plants.
00:55:57.040 They store their food.
00:55:57.920 So zero plants.
00:56:00.020 No new coal plants.
00:56:01.400 They're probably going to shut down plants.
00:56:03.200 Nine point four gigawatts of wind.
00:56:05.420 So the existing 32 gigawatts, it went down to one gigawatt when it was needed.
00:56:09.300 So it's basically useless.
00:56:10.440 And then 12 new gigawatts of solar and solar was almost completely useless.
00:56:14.460 So and then five new gigawatts of gas, which is basically to handle all the ups and downs
00:56:18.960 of the wind and solar.
00:56:20.140 So this is Texas's plan.
00:56:21.560 And that is a mild day at the beach compared to what Biden has planned.
00:56:25.900 So we need to totally change direction.
00:56:28.020 All right.
00:56:28.460 So I want you just to tell us what America looks like with the Biden plan and what states
00:56:35.580 and people locally should be should be doing, because the first thing that came to my mind
00:56:41.940 was I am not sufficient.
00:56:43.920 I am not self-reliant at all.
00:56:45.700 I'm still reliant on here in Texas.
00:56:48.200 I'm reliant on way too much stuff, way too much stuff.
00:56:52.760 And when you can't when you can't weather a storm for three days, four days without these,
00:57:01.360 these aren't rolling brownouts or rolling blackouts.
00:57:04.780 They're not scheduled anymore.
00:57:05.940 They started scheduled.
00:57:08.040 Now they're just now we're just having full blackouts.
00:57:10.200 Uh, and, uh, that, I mean, that just is not in a, in a, you know, 21st century world that
00:57:20.080 makes no sense whatsoever, in my opinion.
00:57:23.580 All right.
00:57:24.140 Back in just a second, uh, more on the green energy movement and what that means to you coming
00:57:29.940 up in just a second.
00:57:31.640 There's a scam out there now where you get a text message claiming that you can access

00:58:35.880 We are back with Alex Epstein.
00:58:50.100 He is the president and founder for the Center for Industrial Progress, the author of The Moral
00:58:56.200 Case for Fossil Fuels.
00:58:57.400 Alex, so what does America look like with the way the Biden administration is heading even
00:59:05.780 right now?
00:59:08.820 Yeah, so it's important that because of the dynamics I mentioned, this whole 100% carbon
00:59:14.240 free grid, particularly without nuclear, like that's not going to happen.
00:59:16.820 It's completely impossible.
00:59:17.880 The whole net zero by 2050 thing is impossible, but that doesn't mean we don't need to worry
00:59:21.640 about it because as we're seeing with Texas, even small steps in that direction are disastrous.
00:59:27.380 So what you see is just more and more of these blackouts, of these brownouts.
00:59:33.040 And one thing I want to highlight is what happens to industry?
00:59:36.260 What lesson does industry take when they keep getting blacked out?
00:59:39.960 And they get blacked out a lot more than much more than we do as consumers.
00:59:42.860 They're going to go overseas.
00:59:44.400 They're going to go other places.
00:59:45.360 And I really want to highlight the strategic thing that's happening right now with China
00:59:49.140 because nobody's paying attention to it.
00:59:51.060 China uses five times more industrial electricity than the US, five times.
00:59:56.840 And the vast majority of it comes from coal.
00:59:59.260 A lot of that electricity is used to build unreliable solar panels and wind turbines for us.
01:00:03.980 Of course, we don't mostly build them here because they have to be built with cheap energy,
01:00:08.540 which means they have to be built with fossil fuels.
01:00:10.860 They're not built with solar panels and wind turbines, obviously.
01:00:13.740 So you have China making this very strong strategic move to get us to unilaterally disempower and for them to empower.
01:00:22.600 And then they say, oh, we're going to go net zero by 2060.
01:00:25.120 They get praised by Biden.
01:00:26.620 They get praised by this guy, Larry Fink, the head of BlackRock, who almost runs the financial world right now.
01:00:31.540 And so you just see this amazing strategic play where they are using fossil fuels to get ahead.
01:00:37.940 They have record oil imports. They had a five-year high in coal production.
01:00:41.600 They're building 100-plus new coal plants.
01:00:43.900 Again, five times more electricity than we are.
01:00:45.800 So they're disempowering us, empowering themselves, and then selling us these almost useless solar panels and wind turbines.
01:00:53.460 And Biden is playing into it.
01:00:55.040 So unfortunately, the expression is useful idiot for China.
01:00:59.500 And I think that security thing should scare us just as much as everything else.
01:01:03.500 So where do we go?
01:01:06.940 Because honestly, you have Bank of America saying that they're going to start looking at loans.
01:01:15.320 If you're not green, you may not be able to be fitting into their portfolio of businesses they can loan money to.
01:01:24.040 You have BlackRock pushing this.
01:01:26.260 You have the Great Reset pushing all of this.
01:01:29.340 And Jaguar just came out and said they'll be fully electric cars by 2025.
01:01:36.940 And nobody's talking about the increase in electricity that is needed if we all go to electric cars.
01:01:45.340 Yeah, so I think that it's crucial to have these moments as teaching moments.
01:01:51.780 So this is maybe the crucial teaching moment of 2021 to change the narrative on this.
01:01:58.820 And I mentioned that on Twitter, I posted a very comprehensive explanation.
01:02:02.140 More broadly, recently, I created a website called energytalkingpoints.com that takes all of these issues and gives you very quick, well-referenced statements on everything.
01:02:10.260 And that's part of my overall goal of just changing the narrative, where we move from this focus on unreliable energy and climate catastrophe to one where we recognize that if we use the best sources of energy, namely fossil fuels and nuclear, we can keep making the world a better and better place to live.
01:02:27.040 I do believe we impact climate.
01:02:28.860 But we're talking about one degree in 170 years.
01:02:32.200 Climate-related deaths are at all-time lows.
01:02:34.300 Fossil fuels are making the world a better and better place to live.
01:02:37.140 The facts are on the side of that.
01:02:40.060 And mandatory government-controlled green energy is making the world a worse place to live.
01:02:44.420 So those are the two narratives I just keep hitting over and over and over.
01:02:47.960 And eventually, people are going to see that narrative corresponds to reality.
01:02:51.680 And the other narrative is just unreal and destructive.
01:02:56.440 Thank you so much.
01:02:57.120 Give me the name of that website you just created again.
01:03:00.620 It's called EnergyTalkingPoints.com.
01:03:05.220 EnergyTalkingPoints.com.
01:03:06.180 Thank you so much.
01:03:06.980 I appreciate it.
01:03:08.000 Alex Epstein, the president and co-founder for Center for Industrial Progress.
01:03:12.880 More in just a second.
01:03:15.800 You know, I have to tell you while I have a second.
01:03:19.200 My family and I have been so concerned about others that don't have heat.
01:03:24.180 Others that don't have all of the stuff that we might have.
01:03:28.140 The suffering that is going on in Texas for green energy should wake people up alone.
01:03:34.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:03:37.400 All right.
01:03:37.980 Let me tell you about real estate agents.
01:03:39.760 I trust.com.
01:03:40.920 So, I thought, you know, about writing the entire list of things I'd rather do than get involved with buying and selling of a house.
01:03:48.500 But I realized pretty quickly that would take me probably for the next 40 years to do that.
01:03:54.420 Give you a hint.
01:03:55.340 Among them was bungee jumping into a ball pit filled with venomous snakes.
01:04:02.200 Taking a bullet to the shoulder just to see what it feels like.
01:04:05.200 Working at the New York Times.
01:04:06.480 Those were just some of the things that I'd rather do than buy or sell a house.
01:04:11.180 It's a hassle.
01:04:12.540 But it doesn't have to be.
01:04:13.920 If you have the right real estate agent in place, you're not going to have all of those hassles.
01:04:21.060 You need somebody who knows the market, knows how to attract the buyers, knows what your house and your new house really should go for.
01:04:30.280 And then they know how to negotiate.
01:04:32.540 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:04:57.120 Welcome back to Parler.
01:05:07.160 Parler is back online.
01:05:08.500 We talked to their new interim CEO coming up in just a second.
01:05:12.720 There is a story in the Washington Post today.
01:05:20.340 Pandemics have spawned extremist movements since ancient times.
01:05:24.120 I started talking about it last hour.
01:05:25.860 I want to go a little further in depth on this and read it to you because it shows the thinking of the elites and where they're headed.
01:05:38.100 Adam Krigler, quoting the Washington Post, used to feed his YouTube following a politics-free diet of chatter about aliens, movies, skateboardings, and video games.
01:05:49.120 Then came the pandemic.
01:05:51.920 Now he devotes much of his talk show to his assertion that mask mandates are an assault to personal freedom and that Democrats somehow stole 2020 election from Donald Trump.
01:06:02.520 The result?
01:06:03.820 A much bigger audience.
01:06:06.380 Okay.
01:06:07.060 Well, I mean, you know, skateboarding should have brought a huge audience.
01:06:11.240 I mean, everybody's skateboarding nowadays.
01:06:15.320 A much bigger audience.
01:06:17.000 Yes, because everyone's life is affected by the mask mandates.
01:06:22.040 And yes, the mask mandates are an assault on personal freedom when you mandate them.
01:06:30.380 Going to the United States, the people of the United States and say, look, we all need to wear masks.
01:06:35.160 Can we all just do this?
01:06:36.940 We all have to work together.
01:06:38.240 The American people would not have had a problem with it.
01:06:40.940 We wouldn't have.
01:06:41.860 We did it.
01:06:42.420 We were wearing masks when they told us not to wear masks.
01:06:47.000 It's the mandate that is an affront to personal freedom.
01:06:52.640 And the Democrats somehow stole the 2020 election.
01:06:56.340 Washington Post, are you real?
01:06:57.960 Yes, you are.
01:06:58.860 So I'm not even going to ask.
01:07:00.260 The Washington Post is so deep up their own ass, excuse the expression, that they can't see any light anymore.
01:07:08.160 All they see is intestines and their own crap that they've been eating.
01:07:18.300 The pandemic has made more people want to blame someone else because they've lost their jobs or they're lonely, Krigler said.
01:07:25.820 True.
01:07:28.460 Ian Bain, for years a campaign professional, has sworn off politics and launched a career in real estate.
01:07:38.580 Then COVID hit and he helped launch No Mask Nevada, organizing a dozen rallies against masking because he said the government was inflating the danger of the coronavirus.
01:07:48.760 Well, I think that's true.
01:07:52.660 Now that we know that it is point.
01:07:56.860 What is it?
01:07:57.800 Point six percent, point eight percent.
01:08:00.900 Somewhere deadly.
01:08:01.880 And most of it is on the upper end.
01:08:05.460 Yeah, it's been overstated.
01:08:08.700 People are isolated alone.
01:08:10.320 They need to express their true selves.
01:08:11.960 Spain said our I don't know why we're surprised that there's more extremism.
01:08:17.420 Now people came out to rallies because they craved human interaction.
01:08:20.760 OK, that's not why people are not craving human interaction.
01:08:26.380 So they're like, let's go protest the government.
01:08:29.400 That's not what's happening.
01:08:31.820 Yes, our kids are killing themselves because they crave human interaction.
01:08:38.420 More extremism?
01:08:42.280 There isn't more extremism.
01:08:44.600 I contend there is more extremism on the part of the federal and some state governments.
01:08:51.360 It is extremist to say 15 days to flatten the curve.
01:08:57.020 And now we are approaching a one year anniversary and we have put all of these people out of work.
01:09:04.280 That's extremists.
01:09:06.040 Not the people who say, hey, maybe I should be able to feed my family.
01:09:12.120 The action of the government is extremist.
01:09:15.060 Don't let them use this extremist talk against anyone.
01:09:20.560 Except them.
01:09:24.320 It's it's amazing.
01:09:26.460 Here's the Washington Post again.
01:09:28.380 Since ancient times, pandemics have spurred sharp turns in political beliefs.
01:09:33.160 Hmm.
01:09:35.860 OK, Pat, have you changed your political belief?
01:09:39.380 Have you had a sharp turn in your political beliefs?
01:09:43.300 No.
01:09:43.960 Yeah.
01:09:44.600 You still believe in the Constitution?
01:09:46.200 Still do.
01:09:46.680 Still believe in the Bill of Rights?
01:09:47.920 Yes.
01:09:48.400 It's still the cornerstone of everything you believe?
01:09:51.120 Yeah.
01:09:51.760 Me too.
01:09:52.240 I haven't changed my political belief.
01:09:55.260 Not at all.
01:09:56.040 It's that the extremists in Washington and these so-called public private partnerships in these so-called civil rights groups.
01:10:10.040 They are now jamming down everyone's throat the extremist thought that men can have babies.
01:10:18.960 That our girls should be able to play sports with guys on the team who are claiming they're girls.
01:10:25.380 And that's not a problem.
01:10:27.400 Or how about the extremist idea that the banks should get bailed out, but not the American people?
01:10:33.860 Here's an extremist idea.
01:10:36.380 The federal government has a right to tell you to close your business for a year.
01:10:45.080 I think these are all extremist ideas.
01:10:48.440 So I haven't changed from the Bill of Rights.
01:10:52.300 I still believe in that.
01:10:54.040 That doesn't make me an extremist.
01:10:55.900 That makes you the one who are pushing new policies that have never been done before in America, never even been tried in the world.
01:11:08.560 You're the extremist.
01:11:10.120 Not me.
01:11:11.100 Not me.
01:11:13.420 Anyway, history has shown that extremist movements, waves of mistrust, and wholesale rejection of authorities.
01:11:20.840 Now, why would we have a wholesale rejection of authorities?
01:11:23.720 Or any kind of mistrust for the government.
01:11:26.860 Right.
01:11:27.380 Or the media.
01:11:28.660 Couldn't believe, it couldn't be that they've lied to us every step of the way, could it?
01:11:32.120 Every step of the way.
01:11:33.220 And the media has done their bidding.
01:11:36.560 The media has covered up every step of the way.
01:11:39.940 The reason why you have QAnon is because people don't believe the government because they have proven themselves to be untrustworthy.
01:11:51.580 You know, why don't people trust you?
01:11:55.000 If you are somebody and you have a bank and you're like, gee, nobody's coming into the bank.
01:12:01.600 Nobody wants to do business with us.
01:12:03.760 They say we're untrustworthy.
01:12:05.100 Well, have you been?
01:12:08.360 Wells Fargo?
01:12:10.180 Have you been?
01:12:12.100 Because I can explain your lack of trust from the American people if you've been screwing them.
01:12:21.440 And that's what Americans feel.
01:12:25.960 Our hired representatives don't represent us.
01:12:29.400 And we know this because we've seen it over and over and over again.
01:12:34.980 Every time we elect someone, the state does everything they can to dismantle them.
01:12:41.160 If we elect somebody like a Tea Party person, they co-opt them.
01:12:46.120 They change them.
01:12:47.600 They threaten them.
01:12:48.600 Or they throw them out.
01:12:50.160 So, you needed to get somebody with a bigger hammer.
01:12:52.960 Donald Trump.
01:12:54.280 What did the big state do?
01:12:57.260 Destroyed him.
01:12:58.460 Did everything they could to destroy.
01:13:00.740 Lie after lie after lie.
01:13:02.800 I'm not the extremist.
01:13:04.740 I'm not the extremist.
01:13:06.240 Americans are falling prey, says the Washington Post, to the same phenomenon historians, theologians, and others experts say,
01:13:16.140 exemplified by a recent NPR Ipsos poll, in nearly one in five said they believe Satan-worshipping child-enslaving elites took control of the world.
01:13:27.980 Do you believe that?
01:13:29.380 That Satan-worshipping child-enslaving elites now have control of the world?
01:13:34.080 No.
01:13:34.320 Yeah, neither do I.
01:13:38.540 As shutdowns paralyzed the economy in the first months of the pandemic, Americans sharply increased searches for extremist and white supremacist materials online.
01:13:50.540 I don't know anybody.
01:13:51.800 I don't know anybody who did that.
01:13:53.940 I don't know anybody who was like, I lost my job.
01:13:56.200 I've got to become a white supremacist.
01:13:58.520 Do you?
01:13:59.320 Do you know anybody?
01:14:00.060 New insecurities and fears loose by the pandemic fed into the existing erosion of trust in leaders and institutions, according to those who have studied how people react rampant to uncontrolled disease.
01:14:13.680 We're not reacting to the disease.
01:14:17.400 We are reacting to the leaders of our country, of medicine, and the media.
01:14:24.340 We're reacting to them.
01:14:26.240 When you tell us not to wear a mask and then you tell us to wear a mask, you lose credibility.
01:14:33.360 When you tell us, no, this is going to be over in 15 days, we accept that, okay, maybe this summer we've got to do it for a couple of extra months because we don't have a year into it.
01:14:44.620 You have no credibility.
01:14:46.480 You have none.
01:14:48.160 And then you come to us at the same time when you told us no masks were good and now you're proposing a two mask minimum to be legal.
01:14:58.940 No.
01:15:00.320 No.
01:15:01.560 In a healthy society, the government and the church would say this is nonsense and people would believe them.
01:15:08.480 This is according to Richard Land, president of the Southern Evangelical Seminary.
01:15:11.680 But during the pandemic, that check on extremist impulses has failed for some who crave connection with others.
01:15:19.760 God created us as social creatures and when we isolate from other human beings, we tend to malfunction.
01:15:25.560 That part is true.
01:15:27.620 Over the past year, the pandemic was a constant undercurrent as Americans took to the streets to protest racial injustice.
01:15:35.120 No, the pandemic had nothing to do with that.
01:15:37.620 Police brutality.
01:15:38.500 All of those protests, all of the racial injustice, all the looting, everything went on.
01:15:44.380 That's because of the pandemic.
01:15:47.300 And the president, President Biden's victory in the 2020 election.
01:15:51.700 I only remember one.
01:15:54.700 One.
01:15:55.400 And it was January 6th.
01:15:57.320 It was a bad one.
01:15:58.440 Yes.
01:15:59.060 But one.
01:16:00.400 Much as they were motivated by the causes themselves, many who participated in the street actions were probably also eager for human contact.
01:16:07.820 You know what?
01:16:08.820 I love breaking the windows of a Macy's store just because we can do it as a human family.
01:16:13.880 In that view, according to psychologists who have studied the effects of social isolation, the January 6th attack on the Capitol was both an insurrection plot, an impromptu meetup, an assault on the infrastructure of American democracy, and a social gathering for people who believe they were defending their idea of nationhood.
01:16:38.880 Just sort of a getting to know you.
01:16:41.260 Yeah.
01:16:41.700 With your fellow extremists.
01:16:42.920 Bring your own dish.
01:16:43.500 Yeah.
01:16:43.760 You know.
01:16:44.200 Yeah.
01:16:44.620 Many have argued that President Donald Trump's efforts amounted to an attempted coup.
01:16:49.120 But was it?
01:16:50.440 And why does that matter?
01:16:51.680 Well, in the wake of COVID-19, it appears that far-right extremists have discovered the extent of people's fear of social control and the loss of liberty, and have realized how easily they can manipulate citizens who may not normally subscribe to extreme ideology.
01:17:09.680 It is not extreme to believe in the Bill of Rights.
01:17:14.240 It is not extreme to believe in the Constitution.
01:17:18.060 It is not extreme to believe in a court of law where justice is blind.
01:17:25.920 It is extreme to believe anything other than that in America.
01:17:30.960 Now, maybe if you live in the Soviet Union or now Russia, what's the difference?
01:17:37.080 It might be extreme to believe in those things.
01:17:40.780 But in America, it is not extreme to believe in liberty.
01:17:45.980 It is not extreme to believe that if your politicians lie, cheat, steal, that they should go to jail or at least be prosecuted or at least be voted out.
01:17:59.820 It is not extreme to believe that the President of the United States should not enrich his own family with the biggest enemy of America and, quite frankly, the freedom of all mankind, China.
01:18:16.540 It is not extreme to believe that 30, 40, 50 executive orders in the first 100 days is extreme.
01:18:30.500 It's not extreme to believe that we shouldn't do the Great Reset.
01:18:36.940 It's not extreme to believe that we don't really have a protected freedom of speech as long as a bunch of global companies, many of them in bed with the Communist Chinese, they get to decide who speaks and who doesn't.
01:18:54.920 It's not extreme to believe that Marxists should not be in charge of our schools.
01:19:02.080 It's not extreme to believe that libraries in those schools should not purge books in America.
01:19:12.380 I'm not even done with the Washington Post, but I just want to make sure that the Washington Post, no, forget them.
01:19:19.040 I want you to firmly understand you are not an extremist.
01:19:27.560 If you believe in the Bill of Rights, that does not make you an extremist.
01:19:33.980 Those who wish to thwart it are the extremists.
01:19:41.720 Although that monologue sure makes me one, I'm sure, in their eyes.

01:20:43.740 Tomorrow night on Glenn TV.
01:20:46.300 The kids are not all right.
01:20:49.100 In the name of progress, we're destroying their minds with Marxist lies.
01:20:52.900 And in the name of safety, we're killing them by keeping them locked down.
01:20:56.740 We have the highest suicide rate we've seen amongst children.
01:20:59.720 Glenn reveals the horrors of a dangerous curriculum that's about to go national and takes on the teachers' unions, the Biden admin, and leftists failing our children.
01:21:07.040 What's killing our kids?
01:21:09.320 The case of national suicide.
01:21:11.220 Tomorrow night, 9 p.m. Eastern at BlazeTV.com.
01:21:15.840 Not done with that article from the Washington Post.
01:21:18.300 It's an amazing article.
01:21:19.660 I'll post it online at GlennBeck.com.
01:21:22.600 Also, I'll tweet it out.
01:21:24.400 You know what?
01:21:25.180 Better yet, I'll share it.
01:21:30.980 Yes, on Parler.
01:21:33.240 It's back.
01:21:35.160 Mark Meckler.
01:21:36.100 You might know the name.
01:21:37.600 He's the interim CEO of Parler.
01:21:40.300 He joins us next.
01:21:42.480 What has happened to Parler?
01:21:44.520 How have they recovered?
01:21:46.160 What is their strength now?
01:21:48.600 When we come back.
01:21:50.980 All right.
01:21:51.660 Let me tell you about Bilt Bar.
01:21:53.120 Bilt Bar is our sponsor.
01:21:54.380 This is my favorite.
01:21:56.480 Actually, it was my favorite.
01:21:58.740 This is the mint brownie until the coconut brownie chunk came in.
01:22:04.720 Have you tried this yet?
01:22:05.940 Try this, Pat.
01:22:06.840 You will love it.
01:22:07.360 Do you like coconut?
01:22:08.920 No.
01:22:09.380 You don't like coconut?
01:22:10.160 Give it to me.
01:22:10.500 No.
01:22:10.720 You like mint brownie?
01:22:12.200 Yes, I do.
01:22:13.820 Bilt Bar is amazing.

01:22:54.100 All right.
01:22:54.820 Last hour of the program coming up.
01:22:56.220 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:23:23.440 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:33.000 George Orwell wrote 1984 while he was dying of tuberculosis.
01:23:40.880 He said, it would have been better had I not been under the influence of tuberculosis at
01:23:46.720 the time, but he's not entirely dissatisfied with 1984.
01:23:50.360 He saw the future.
01:23:54.220 He said, this is the direction the world is going at the present time.
01:23:58.420 Before his death, he said, quote,
01:23:59.960 In our world, there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement.
01:24:07.320 The sex instinct will be eradicated.
01:24:10.840 We shall abolish the orgasm.
01:24:13.320 There'll be no loyalty except loyalty to the party.
01:24:16.900 But always there will be the intoxication of power.
01:24:20.600 Always at every moment there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an
01:24:25.720 enemy who is helpless.
01:24:27.400 If you want a picture of the future, wrote Orwell, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever.
01:24:35.480 The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one.
01:24:41.380 Don't let it happen.
01:24:43.400 It depends on you.
01:24:45.520 And in a time of deceit, telling the truth is the ultimate revolutionary act.
01:24:55.400 Can you tell the truth?
01:24:58.020 Well, in a revolutionary act, Parler is back online.
01:25:04.560 We've talked to the interim CEO, Mark Mechler, in 60 seconds.
01:25:08.720 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:14.900 Well, mowing season is about to arrive in Texas.
01:25:17.920 Next week, it's going to be 68.
01:25:20.040 It is one in Texas today.
01:25:23.600 Next week, 68.
01:25:26.020 We have a snowstorm, and next we'll be planting our azaleas.
01:25:30.740 It will be beautiful as soon as the snow melts.
01:25:33.320 If you have a lot of grass to cut, there is one lawnmower that is unbelievable, unbelievable.
01:25:42.000 It's a Hustler zero-turf, zero-turn radius mower, named after the Air Force's B-58, the
01:25:49.960 Hustler bomber.
01:25:51.540 Hustler mowers are made in the U.S. with some global parts.
01:25:54.820 They offer a hero's discount for veterans, active military, and they're a supporter of
01:26:00.480 the Folds of Honor, an organization that helps provide the families of fallen and disabled
01:26:04.560 service members educational scholarships.
01:26:07.140 Hustler has been making and perfecting the zero-turn lawnmower for more than 55 years.
01:26:13.520 I think they're the people who invented it.
01:26:16.000 I mean, and this thing is a tank.
01:26:18.860 When you sit on a Hustler, you're not sitting on something to mow the grass.
01:26:22.620 You're living the dream.
01:26:23.980 There is a difference.
01:26:25.260 Go ahead, check everybody else out, then find your closest Hustler mower dealer, and
01:26:32.200 you will see the difference.
01:26:34.100 Before you buy some other mower, find a Hustler dealer.
01:26:37.840 Just go test drive one.
01:26:39.440 All you have to do is just check out hustlerturf.com.
01:26:42.220 Go to hustlerturf.com.
01:26:45.060 Isn't it necessary that all of us review our own attitude and say, yes, it is possible
01:26:52.520 for men and women of goodwill to differ?
01:26:59.300 Mark Meckler is with us.
01:27:00.740 He is the interim CEO of Parler, which we know now is a website of real danger, real extremism.
01:27:11.380 Mark, how are you?
01:27:12.680 You know, I don't feel like I'm very dangerous or extreme, but that's certainly how it's
01:27:18.560 been portrayed.
01:27:19.420 Well, do you believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights?
01:27:23.980 Absolutely.
01:27:24.900 Fundamentally and unequivocally.
01:27:27.020 Yeah, there you go.
01:27:28.120 I just did a monologue last hour about how extremists are the ones who are trying to get
01:27:35.520 rid of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, but the media and politics in Washington are
01:27:42.280 trying to make those people seem like the Americans, and we're the extremists.
01:27:48.080 Yeah, they are fundamentally anti-American.
01:27:50.640 They stand against everything that this country was founded on and for.
01:27:54.620 And frankly, those people right now, they occupy the White House and they're in control of both
01:27:58.520 houses of Congress.
01:27:59.480 We're in real danger.
01:28:00.240 Okay, so you are the interim CEO.
01:28:02.780 If you recognize the name Mark Meckler, it's because he's the Convention of States guys.
01:28:07.920 And he's been talking about that with us for a long time.
01:28:11.120 What was it?
01:28:11.660 About four weeks ago, we were talking about the Convention of States, and I mentioned
01:28:15.860 Parler going under or going out, being taken out.
01:28:19.800 And we talked about cloud services.
01:28:24.400 We talked about there has to be somebody that is building the infrastructure for the right
01:28:29.940 to fall into.
01:28:31.220 And you talked at the time about being a part of a movement to do that.
01:28:35.060 Now you're the interim CEO of Parler.
01:28:38.140 Did that play a role, what you're doing behind the scenes?
01:28:41.400 Yeah, it did, actually.
01:28:42.480 So I've been thinking about this problem, as we talked about, for a long time.
01:28:45.680 And I've been working on finding alternative service providers and folks who are actual
01:28:50.360 real patriots who would stand in the fight in the event that they were attacked.
01:28:53.820 And so I had a little bit of a head start in thinking about this.
01:28:56.860 I knew the primary owners of Parler.
01:28:59.180 They're longtime friends of mine.
01:29:00.660 And so when I saw it go down, I just reached out to see if there was anything I could do
01:29:04.940 to help.
01:29:05.780 Literally didn't expect to end up being the interim CEO.
01:29:08.560 That's just the way things have worked out over time.
01:29:10.700 Right.
01:29:11.180 But yeah, I think a lot of it was my thinking in advance.
01:29:14.100 I got to say, though, when all the credit for getting it back up goes to the staff,
01:29:17.640 these guys have been absolutely incredible.
01:29:19.880 It is taken, however, a month.
01:29:21.880 I'm not blaming this on the staff by any stretch.
01:29:23.780 It's taken a month to get over a month to get back in the public square.
01:29:30.180 Is there any lawsuit that I know you're an attorney?
01:29:33.640 Is there any lawsuit that can be had for the destruction of business by Amazon and the
01:29:40.860 collusion with all of these companies that we now know happened?
01:29:45.720 Yeah, there absolutely is.
01:29:46.700 There is a lawsuit that's already been filed.
01:29:48.400 We're working on an amended complaint on that.
01:29:50.240 That lawsuit is against AWS, Amazon Web Services.
01:29:54.020 And I do think there is liability.
01:29:55.320 I think there's all kinds of antitrust stuff.
01:29:57.200 I think there's business damage stuff.
01:29:58.840 But we'll be putting out more on that probably in a week or so when we amend that complaint.
01:30:04.200 Good.
01:30:04.320 Did you see the, just so you have it in your coffers, I'm sure you do, the story that came
01:30:08.880 out that showed that there were many more people organizing on Facebook for January 6th
01:30:17.720 than there were on Parler.
01:30:19.180 You had, I think, six and they had maybe 70?
01:30:23.040 Yeah, absolutely.
01:30:23.980 In fact, there's been a couple of great stories on that.
01:30:26.020 That one was an independent review by Forbes, and they found the vast majority of violent
01:30:30.160 and insightful stuff.
01:30:31.520 That took place on Facebook.
01:30:32.960 YouTube and Instagram were close second and third.
01:30:34.960 We barely made the list.
01:30:36.780 And so, look, there's always going to be bad content on every platform of that size.
01:30:40.880 But the bottom line is, this was just a hit job.
01:30:43.900 It was a political hit job.
01:30:44.960 But I would also add that it was a business hit job.
01:30:47.260 They see Parler as a real threat to their monopoly on the business market and on free speech,
01:30:53.020 and they're going to come after us.
01:30:54.160 There is no place, according to them, for somebody who disagrees with the current cabal,
01:31:02.300 there's no place for them, is there?
01:31:04.500 I mean, it's not enough being kicked off of the other platforms.
01:31:08.440 When you start and you go on another platform, they'll shut down the platform.
01:31:13.820 Yeah, that's exactly right.
01:31:14.860 And look, I think there's two measures to this, though.
01:31:17.700 One is no speech outside what they agree with.
01:31:20.840 Remember that Mussolini said that the definition of fascism is everything inside the state,
01:31:28.280 nothing outside of the state, and nothing against the state.
01:31:31.400 So that's now being enforced by our government, but also by the tech oligarchy and working with the government.
01:31:37.140 And then I think the second thing is a business model.
01:31:39.120 So at Parler, we believe in free speech.
01:31:41.980 So if you can say it in the public square, you can say it on Parler.
01:31:44.620 We believe in privacy and data sovereignty, meaning we're not monetizing the data of our users.
01:31:50.160 We're here for our users as a service to our users, not to use them and use their data.
01:31:55.740 And we have an advertising model that doesn't use their data.
01:31:58.900 And so I think that's very threatening to Facebook and Twitter and all the others.
01:32:02.600 So how are you going to make money when the advertising cabal comes after you guys?
01:32:09.460 I mean, at The Blaze, we have worked on building our own advertisers, and they're as close to bulletproof as possible
01:32:18.560 because they believe in us and they believe in the work that we do.
01:32:23.660 Are you guys at that place with your advertisers?
01:32:27.360 Yeah, absolutely.
01:32:28.060 We're looking at the same types of people that advertise in The Blaze or have advertised and will be advertising again on Parler.
01:32:34.740 These are people who believe in the same things that you and I believe,
01:32:37.920 and they're not going to fold to the kind of pressure that the woke media and the woke mob put on them.
01:32:45.220 So tell me about the infrastructure and how stable it is now.
01:32:50.320 Can this happen to you guys again?
01:32:53.000 Yeah, look, I'm very comfortable with the infrastructure.
01:32:55.840 And again, this is where my head was at, as you know, before I went to be with Parler.
01:33:01.040 What we did is we went out and we found providers who shared our values,
01:33:04.760 but were also big enough to handle the kind of load that we put on them.
01:33:08.520 And what we did to be sure, and this is really important, Glenn, for anybody who's operating in this space,
01:33:13.460 we made sure that there were multiple redundancies.
01:33:16.100 So we don't have what I would describe as any single points of failure.
01:33:20.000 I'm very certain I've talked to the CEOs of all the companies that we're working with.
01:33:23.480 I'm very certain they're going to stand with us and not cave to the woke mob.
01:33:27.340 But even if they do, we've built in multiple redundancies,
01:33:30.480 and we're going to continue to have layers of redundancies so that we know we're bulletproof in the future.
01:33:36.240 So let's talk about, let's play devil's advocate here.
01:33:39.440 The problem that they will say is that we are living at a time where conspiracy theorists and crazy things
01:33:49.460 and white supremacists and all kinds of terrorists can be online,
01:33:54.280 and you don't want to add fuel to that.
01:33:57.620 You should make sure that you have an algorithm that stops all of that kind of hate speech.
01:34:04.380 Tell me why that's wrong if you do think it's wrong.
01:34:08.380 I do think that's wrong because that runs, first of all,
01:34:12.240 it runs contrary to just our philosophy at the founding
01:34:15.520 and our philosophy through most of American history really until recently.
01:34:18.680 We believe that if you don't like somebody's speech,
01:34:21.480 bad speech should be countered with good speech,
01:34:24.240 should be countered with more speech, not with less speech.
01:34:27.380 When you start tamping down on free speech, you start creating,
01:34:30.720 well, you've read about this, you talked about this,
01:34:32.860 George Orwell's view, the 1984 view of the future,
01:34:36.340 which is this idea that the government will control all,
01:34:39.640 that we will have overlords and overseers.
01:34:41.900 Now, I do agree, by the way, that there are far too many people out there pushing conspiracy theories,
01:34:47.540 and many of them are in the Democratic Party in Congress.
01:34:50.680 They're on CNN.
01:34:51.620 They're on MSNBC, ABC, CBS, all the others.
01:34:55.880 Yet, at the same time, I think we should just debunk their conspiracies,
01:34:59.120 as we've largely done, as opposed to seeing them shut down,
01:35:02.400 which I'm not interested in doing.
01:35:03.760 Yeah, I've not asked for people to be shut down.
01:35:06.780 I've supported people who have been attacked by the woke mob,
01:35:11.220 even, and especially, when I vehemently disagree with them.
01:35:16.140 Freedom of speech means freedom of speech.
01:35:19.180 Talk to me about the person who says,
01:35:21.460 yeah, but now, if I go over to Parler,
01:35:25.400 there's going to be all these people,
01:35:26.860 because usually, when it is, when there's one place to go,
01:35:31.800 you know, all these places that are pushing the boundaries are going to be there,
01:35:37.320 and I don't want to be a part of that.
01:35:39.840 You know, that's the beauty of Parler,
01:35:41.580 and one of the things that makes it so different from all the other social networks,
01:35:44.940 this big, scary word at the social networks is algorithm,
01:35:48.240 and I think people should be scared of that big, scary word,
01:35:50.520 because what it means is,
01:35:51.700 if you go over there and you like certain things,
01:35:54.160 they're going to start pushing other things at you that sort of, they think, fit.
01:35:58.020 And this creates what I call the echo chamber effect,
01:36:00.460 and it does put a bunch of stuff into your feed you might not want to see.
01:36:04.460 At Parler, you 100% design your own feed.
01:36:07.860 There's nothing that you're going to see that you haven't requested to see.
01:36:10.960 You can easily remove anything from your own feed.
01:36:14.040 Again, we believe in data sovereignty,
01:36:15.680 and we believe that our users are prime.
01:36:18.980 That's who is in charge of their experience at Parler.
01:36:21.280 We want them to see only the people that they want to see
01:36:24.400 and hear from only the groups and people that they want to hear from.
01:36:27.820 So tell me now about the people that did belong.
01:36:31.240 How long is it going to take before you're fully running with
01:36:35.280 at least the people that you had before?
01:36:38.880 So the platform is fully up and running right now.
01:36:42.000 We have the capacity to handle everybody who wants to come back and log on.
01:36:46.660 There are some limitations right now.
01:36:49.120 One of the limitations is we're having folks having trouble with the Apple iOS.
01:36:54.040 I believe that's a technical limitation we're going to get around here today.
01:36:57.620 Part of the problem with that is that we can't update the Apple app that's on the App Store right now
01:37:03.040 because we got removed from the App Store.
01:37:04.960 We're working on that.
01:37:05.900 So folks can't update it.
01:37:07.460 And if there are problems in there, we can't fix those problems.
01:37:09.840 So that's one of the things we're working on right now, trying to fix that.
01:37:12.920 I bet Apple is bending over backwards to help you with that, too.
01:37:17.200 Well, I'm not going to comment on that right now, Glenn,
01:37:19.500 because we'd really like to be back in the App Store because so many users want to be able to download the app.
01:37:25.320 I know.
01:37:26.000 So the second piece of that is that we are seeing every day more and more functionality come back.
01:37:32.500 Folks need to remember that this thing, when it went down, it's not just a website.
01:37:36.160 I think if you're not involved in technology and it works, it's seamless, we don't think about what's involved in it.
01:37:42.060 There's so many different layers.
01:37:43.820 I'm so proud of the staff at Parler for literally 16 to 20 hours a day they've been putting in for weeks to get it back up.
01:37:50.960 But we expect to see glitches over the next few days.
01:37:53.700 It's better today than it was yesterday.
01:37:55.600 It's going to continue to get better throughout the week.
01:37:57.880 And I expect that we'll be back to full functionality sometime next week.
01:38:01.660 This week, by the way, we're not even taking new subscribers.
01:38:03.960 We're focusing only on the existing Parler family, make sure everything's up and stable and running well,
01:38:09.800 and expect to be accepting new users next week.
01:38:12.360 Is everything that you may have posted before, or do you have to start from scratch if you're an old subscriber?
01:38:21.740 If you go there right now, likely you won't see any of your old stuff.
01:38:24.980 All that data has been preserved, and we will start loading that.
01:38:28.400 We didn't want to load the system with old data when we first went up,
01:38:31.760 but all of that stuff has been preserved, and it's all going to come back.
01:38:35.440 Okay.
01:38:36.100 Mark, best of luck to you.
01:38:37.480 And congratulations to everybody who didn't give up and fought the battle behind the scenes.
01:38:43.700 I know what it is like when you're running a digital company, and you come under attack like that,
01:38:49.700 especially when you're not Facebook or Google.
01:38:55.420 It is all hands on deck, and I got to tell you, it's remarkable that you are back in the first place,
01:39:02.920 and you've got to be proud of all of the people that are working behind the scenes,
01:39:09.460 because I know what it takes, and you guys just pulled off a miracle.
01:39:13.620 Congratulations.
01:39:13.960 Yeah, I appreciate that, Glenn.
01:39:15.200 Thank you very much, and you're right.
01:39:16.800 It's the staff.
01:39:17.640 I don't get any of the credit.
01:39:19.600 I come in, I get to go on the radio and talk to guys like you,
01:39:21.940 but they're an incredible, hardworking team all over the country.
01:39:25.700 These guys have worked day and night, and they get all the credit for pulling this off.
01:39:30.260 Thank you so much, Mark.
01:39:31.540 Appreciate it.
01:39:32.000 Thanks, Glenn.
01:39:32.560 God bless.
01:39:33.200 You bet.
01:39:34.020 You should have him on next week.
01:39:35.180 Remind people that they can join if you're a new user next week at Parler.
01:39:41.160 All right.
01:39:41.540 Let me give you a couple of things.
01:39:42.760 Bank of America has just said the emerging market currencies have inflation risks,
01:39:52.640 bad, bad inflation risks.
01:39:55.460 They say the long-term outlook is more balanced,
01:39:59.200 but you should have some protection against higher inflation in the emerging markets.
01:40:05.980 This is really, really bad because all those countries that have used the U.S. dollar to back anything,
01:40:15.860 as we inflate our money, they're the first hit.
01:40:18.920 So if they start to have inflation, they are going to start having trouble getting food and basic services.
01:40:27.060 It's going to drive up the cost of shipping for them, et cetera, et cetera.
01:40:30.480 This is going to be bad for America long, long term, because you know how you feel when you're having to bail out California.
01:40:39.020 They feel like they're bailing us out because they have a dollar and we're inflating their lifestyle first.
01:40:48.140 This is really not good.
01:40:50.140 This is one of the reasons why gold is going through the roof.
01:40:54.460 It is another reason why Bitcoin is at $50,000 a coin today.
01:40:58.760 You got to have something, got to have something outside of U.S. dollars.
01:41:05.240 And right now, the time to get to gold line and back your investments up with some silver or gold.
01:41:14.700 And I don't mean paper.
01:41:16.080 I mean actual physical gold or silver.
01:41:19.320 Do it now, especially with silver before it goes through the roof.
01:41:23.660 When silver really starts to move up, I can guarantee you gold line will not be giving it away with gold orders as free promotion.
01:41:32.320 They won't be able to afford to, but they're doing it right now.
01:41:35.340 This is the last week to receive free walking Liberty half dollars with the purchase of a tube of gold lines, $5 gold Liberty coins.
01:41:45.060 You can now receive 25 of the half dollars at no cost as a promotion, but it is this week only when they sell out.
01:41:53.200 They're gone.
01:41:54.220 Don't wait.
01:41:55.240 They're standing by to take your call.
01:41:56.840 Now call 866-GOLDLINE, real, physical, gold, and silver.
01:42:02.200 866-GOLDLINE, 866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.
01:42:07.440 10 seconds, station ID.
01:42:09.060 So the majority of people believe that if you believe that the election was stolen, you shouldn't be silenced or punished at all.
01:42:33.160 Huh.
01:42:34.500 Uh, yeah.
01:42:35.620 But only 54% said, uh, you shouldn't punish.
01:42:41.000 54%.
01:42:42.360 35% said, yes, they should be punished.
01:42:45.560 And 11% are, I don't know.
01:42:50.200 Jeez.
01:42:51.180 So great.
01:42:51.880 Meanwhile, acknowledging their institutional responsibility for addressing racism within the libraries, the University of Delaware and Binghamton University are launching a year-long anti-racist talent management audit.
01:43:07.720 So they're going into the libraries to identify actionable reforms, building on and extending the impact of prior, uh, projects, uh, that represent diversity, organizational culture, community engagement undertaken with the library, the museums, and active, uh, and archive partners.
01:43:28.720 If you have anything that is important to America's history, and you want it to be preserved, we have a vault under a mountain.
01:43:43.760 We have another vault here, uh, and, uh, we are protecting them, and we are making sure that they do not fall into the hands of the government.
01:43:53.400 They do not fall into the hands of EDU.
01:43:56.740 They are going in and looking for an anti-racist audit, uh, through all of our universities, the archives, the museums, and they're going to purge.
01:44:11.020 If this isn't fascism, if this isn't what happened in Germany, in Russia, in every place where it has gone bad, I don't, I don't know what this is.
01:44:26.780 We don't purge books and history.
01:44:31.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:44:33.840 Oh, gosh.

01:44:52.940 It's nice.

01:46:01.940 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:46:05.320 Uh, let me, uh, let me play, uh, Congresswoman Sarah, uh, Sarah Jacobs, uh, who's calling for a truth commission.
01:46:14.420 So, said in an interview with the 19th News website this week that, uh, the country needs a truth commission.
01:46:21.020 What exactly would a truth commission be?
01:46:23.500 So, I think part of what we're seeing now is because we haven't really done the reckoning with the racial injustice and white supremacy of our past that we need to do.
01:46:32.920 And so, you know, a truth commission, a lot of people will think of South Africa.
01:46:37.460 We've used them in countries around the world.
01:46:39.840 And basically what it is, is it's, uh, communities all the way up to the national level having conversations about both the gory and the glory of our history and what happened.
01:46:49.760 Yes, finally.
01:46:50.560 Out the history of our country and leading up to and on January 6th so that we can come to a common narrative.
01:46:56.820 You know what's the great thing is about this truth commission is we're going to, A, finally talk about race.
01:47:01.600 When?
01:47:02.260 When will we ever do it?
01:47:03.940 When they did it in South Africa, when they did it in Rwanda, uh, it was because the people who slaughtered those, uh, those people, you know, in a different tribe, if you will,
01:47:14.620 they were still living next door to the other people.
01:47:18.200 So they needed that truth and reconciliation committee.
01:47:22.040 Um, but I am, I'm all for, I'm not going to pay for them, but I'll pay for them.
01:47:27.360 Damn it.
01:47:28.560 I'll say, raise my taxes to buy shovels.
01:47:31.800 And we're going to dig up all those bastards that own slaves and then dig up all the slaves so they can testify him in the court of law.
01:47:40.860 I'm for it.
01:47:42.220 I'm all for it.
01:47:43.700 It's a great idea.
01:47:44.300 Uh, so we, we got that now.
01:47:46.240 So we have a, we have a truth commission, uh, going on.
01:47:49.800 Um, Swalwell says that we, we, we need a white nationalism task force.
01:47:55.700 Finally, somebody has, uh, finally, somebody has said it.
01:47:59.340 And can we play truth commission for buzz, please?
01:48:06.060 It's the same, it's the same clip.
01:48:07.600 I thought it was cut differently.
01:48:08.460 Okay.
01:48:09.160 Um, you know what this is?
01:48:10.640 Do you have the Nick, uh, production?
01:48:12.620 Uh, you know what this really is?
01:48:15.380 This, a truth commission is the committee of un-American activities.
01:48:20.280 That's all it is.
01:48:21.800 It is exactly the same.
01:48:24.020 It's a witch hunt for a different kind of red scare.
01:48:29.020 The average American can do very little.
01:48:32.760 They must depend upon those of us whom they send down here to man the watchtowers of the nation.
01:48:39.420 And if you see anybody from that cabinet, in a restaurant, in a department store, we're at a gasoline station, you tell them they're not welcome.
01:48:51.920 That's all you know.
01:48:53.300 That's all.
01:48:53.880 That's all you stand so decent.
01:48:55.640 Once again, we honor that oath of office.
01:48:59.140 We're performing a public duty.
01:49:01.300 To protect and defend the Constitution.
01:49:03.840 A public trust.
01:49:05.140 I am pursuing this investigation.
01:49:08.280 I've seen firsthand Donald Trump's disrespect for facts.
01:49:11.320 In order to develop the facts.
01:49:13.500 It's really bizarre, isn't it, when you think about how AWOL so many of these members of Congress have gotten.
01:49:20.360 If we, unless we, make sure that there's no infiltration of our government.
01:49:25.120 Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to our country.
01:49:29.060 Then just as certain as you sit there, in the period of our lives, you will see a red world.
01:49:35.560 What I'm concerned about is the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives.
01:49:39.900 The enemy, the enemy is within the House of Representatives.
01:49:45.140 What is the exact number of Trump supporters?
01:49:48.580 First and first.
01:49:49.760 And the question is, how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump?
01:49:57.220 By cutting off their social media.
01:49:59.460 First, Google and Apple delisted Parler from their app stores.
01:50:03.720 Then Amazon cut the servers.
01:50:05.960 Now House Democrats are trying to blame the free speech platform Parler.
01:50:11.140 This stuff related to big tech censorship is the issue of our time.
01:50:17.380 Will Smith appearing to call for the country to purge itself of Donald Trump's supporters.
01:50:22.160 We get to know who people are and how we get to cleanse it out of our country.
01:50:26.140 There's a proposal to have a commission to investigate Republican colleagues.
01:50:30.940 Democrat senators have filed ethics complaints against two of their Republican colleagues.
01:50:35.220 The left is trying to push these businesses to shame them and threaten them into shunning and silencing Trump supporters and conservatives.
01:50:47.060 They're pushing them to fire people, even.
01:50:50.780 Council culture is a wildfire that you cannot contain.
01:50:53.960 If you pour gasoline onto it, don't be surprised when it finally reaches you and you get burned.
01:50:59.880 Every business needs to stand up for every American.
01:51:04.240 Otherwise, eventually, they'll come for you, too.
01:51:08.220 Well, let this court of our truth commission, before we adjourn today,
01:51:13.920 let us come together and hear one more case, if I could call as a witness Governor Cuomo
01:51:22.560 on his nursing home scandal and who's really to blame.
01:51:28.520 The New York State DOH has always fully and publicly reported all COVID deaths in nursing homes and hospitals.
01:51:40.520 Stop for a second.
01:51:43.880 Is he saying that they have always fully reported?
01:51:50.040 I think that's what I heard.
01:51:52.040 That is what he said.
01:51:53.300 Yeah.
01:51:53.660 Now, is that true?
01:51:55.320 We're going to have to have the truth commission look into that, I think.
01:51:58.500 Right.
01:51:58.720 No, it is not.
01:51:59.660 Okay.
01:51:59.960 No, it's not.
01:52:00.900 It's not.
01:52:01.280 And we know that because...
01:52:03.840 His own people have admitted it.
01:52:06.040 Right.
01:52:06.380 They said that they were hiding the truth.
01:52:09.680 This was the excuse last week.
01:52:11.580 They didn't come out and fully tell the truth because they were afraid of that evil orange man bad.
01:52:18.320 Yeah.
01:52:18.640 And so that's why they didn't do it.
01:52:21.420 Yes.
01:52:21.780 But wait, there's more other than just a bald-faced lie.
01:52:26.740 They have always been fully reported.
01:52:29.820 Not true.
01:52:31.220 Nursing homes had the most vulnerable population.
01:52:34.860 Yes.
01:52:35.160 We know that.
01:52:35.900 Right.
01:52:36.380 COVID did not get into the nursing homes by people coming from hospitals.
01:52:41.800 COVID got into the nursing homes by staff walking into the nursing homes.
01:52:47.580 Oh, stop.
01:52:48.980 Stop.
01:52:49.260 Stop.
01:52:49.600 Hang on.
01:52:50.980 See, I thought when he signed the executive order to take people that were confirmed with COVID.
01:52:57.220 Yeah.
01:52:57.580 And ship them to the nursing homes.
01:52:59.520 Right.
01:52:59.780 And the nursing home said, no, we can't take them.
01:53:02.620 Please don't do this.
01:53:03.740 And he said, you have to.
01:53:05.160 Uh-huh.
01:53:05.560 And they said, you'll kill the patients in the nursing homes.
01:53:08.780 And he said, you have to.
01:53:10.440 And they said, no, we really shouldn't.
01:53:12.380 And he said, you have to.
01:53:13.600 And they said, no, really, this is wrong.
01:53:15.640 And he said, you have to.
01:53:16.900 And they said, no, this is, you're going to be responsible for many people who are dying.
01:53:21.520 And he said, you have to.
01:53:23.360 A lot of people think that was the problem.
01:53:26.840 But the problem is, is while they were having that discussion, people who were working there
01:53:33.080 at the nursing home, you know, the good care workers, those heroes, the people that were
01:53:39.240 working at the nursing homes, they're not heroes.
01:53:41.960 No, they infected all those poor people in the nursing home.
01:53:45.000 Yeah.
01:53:45.140 It's their fault.
01:53:46.480 Wow.
01:53:47.520 So.
01:53:48.400 Bastards.
01:53:49.080 Yeah.
01:53:49.660 Don't you hate those nursing home workers now?
01:53:53.660 Can we play any more of what he had to say?
01:53:56.360 When we didn't even know we had covid staff walking into a nursing home, even though they
01:54:03.840 were asymptomatic, asymptomatic, because the national experts all told us you could only
01:54:10.540 spread covid if you had symptoms and they were wrong and they were wrong.
01:54:16.960 And then they were right again.
01:54:19.020 Yeah, they were wrong.
01:54:20.820 Hey, it's me, Governor Cuomo, the dumbest mobster in all of government.
01:54:29.800 You know, it was really bad.
01:54:32.100 All those people have been calling heroes the whole time.
01:54:35.940 Yeah, they were the real.
01:54:37.800 They were the ones that were killing everybody.
01:54:40.500 We don't have a mob problem in New York.
01:54:43.180 We've got nursing home workers.
01:54:45.700 Who needs the mob when you got nursing home workers?
01:54:50.100 You know what I mean?
01:54:51.840 Famina da.
01:54:53.580 Famina guts.
01:54:55.320 I don't even know what that means.
01:54:57.440 All right.
01:54:58.200 Here's our sponsor this half hour.
01:55:01.960 It is Bilt Bar.
01:55:04.980 Which da.
01:55:06.920 Is delicious.
01:55:08.360 Absolutely delicious.
01:55:10.060 Bilt Bar, we were just actually talking about this in the last break because we were actually
01:55:14.020 eating it.
01:55:14.660 Yeah.
01:55:14.900 And Pat and I are.
01:55:16.160 I mean, yeah.
01:55:17.280 I mean, look at us.
01:55:18.040 We like our food.
01:55:19.080 Yeah.
01:55:19.220 We like our food.
01:55:20.940 And we're just talking about how bad diet bars used to be.
01:55:26.220 Protein bars still are.
01:55:28.700 Remember when they just used to taste like like your Dow chemical.
01:55:33.260 Yeah.
01:55:33.500 Our feet.
01:55:34.620 They don't.
01:55:35.440 They don't.
01:55:35.840 They don't taste like that anymore.
01:55:37.660 They are really, really good.
01:55:40.000 Bilt Bars are the best protein bar out on the on the market.
01:55:45.080 Tanya tried to get me to try these things about a year ago.
01:55:47.900 And I was like, no, they're healthy.
01:55:50.560 They're protein bars.
01:55:51.420 I know what protein bars taste like.
01:55:54.100 No, no, no.
01:55:55.340 These tastes.
01:55:56.520 You just said it.
01:55:57.340 They're delicious.
01:55:58.080 Tastes like a candy bar.
01:55:59.980 Like a candy bar.
01:56:00.640 They really do.
01:56:02.080 No chemical aftertaste at all.
01:56:04.500 I don't know how they do it.
01:56:05.660 I don't either because they are low calorie, low sugar, high protein, high fiber.
01:56:12.000 They're better than most protein bars when you're eating them.
01:56:15.580 And you can be on a diet and eat them.
01:56:17.880 I mean, this is the flying car that we were all promised.
01:56:22.780 It's finally arrived.
01:56:24.520 They're called Bilt Bars.
01:56:26.000 I want you to get a mixed box and try them out for yourself.
01:56:28.660 Right now, if you use the promo code Beck, you're going to save 20% off your order.
01:56:33.160 It's BiltBar.com.
01:56:35.080 That's BiltBar.com.
01:56:36.860 Promo code Beck.
01:56:41.320 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:56:46.280 I can't believe the people of New York and how Cuomo's popularity has faded.
01:56:56.260 But a guy who went out and campaigned about how great he was, wrote a book on management,
01:57:04.020 and now is lying.
01:57:07.340 I don't know why everyone on his staff isn't on talk radio, isn't on whoever would accept them as a guest.
01:57:16.560 If I worked for somebody who then started to blame the nursing home staff, I think, I mean, I don't care how much I love you.
01:57:28.180 I would be like, this is, I can't, I can't do it another day.
01:57:31.120 I can't, I can't sit here and listen to that.
01:57:34.540 And the people of New York just sitting back and taking it too from him.
01:57:38.580 It's just, it's amazing.
01:57:40.740 You have to, you have to take into consideration that a lot of these guys, I mean, if you're, what are you going to do?
01:57:49.980 I mean, you're in, you're in New York, you're getting fed bullcrap from the media.
01:57:56.600 Now, not all the media, they are starting to peel away from him to some degree, but they're still kind of leaving it in question.
01:58:05.440 There's no question.
01:58:06.620 He buried his own executive order.
01:58:09.340 He removed it from the website.
01:58:12.420 His own executive order.
01:58:14.120 We know why he did it.
01:58:17.100 He was taking advice from all of the big donors that are the big New York hospitals who didn't want all those COVID patients.
01:58:28.040 So they had to do something with them.
01:58:30.440 So who doesn't have a big donor?
01:58:33.660 What group is out there that doesn't have huge money behind it?
01:58:37.120 Oh, I know.
01:58:37.860 Nursing homes.
01:58:39.060 So he put them in the nursing homes.
01:58:40.840 And now he's blaming it on the nursing home staff?
01:58:45.120 Where's, where, where is the nursing home union?
01:58:49.100 I mean, if that isn't, that's abuse.
01:58:53.280 Where's the nursing home union not standing up to this bully?
01:58:59.420 It's a good word for him too.
01:59:01.080 He is.
01:59:01.840 It's a good, he is a bully.
01:59:03.380 They, they, they all are.
01:59:05.300 They really, they all are.
01:59:07.100 Anybody who is now, I mean, I'm, I'm amazed at the story that I read this morning coming in about,
01:59:14.120 the libraries, how our, how our libraries are now going through social justice reforms and they're going to spend the next year looking for all the books that should be purged from our library.
01:59:26.940 That, that is a book burning.
01:59:31.140 What are you doing?
01:59:32.640 That's book burning.
01:59:34.200 You could say goodbye to just about any book written before 1940, because they all contain concepts or language that is now deemed objectionable.
01:59:49.480 And you can't, you can't, you can't say it.
01:59:51.200 You can't think it.
01:59:51.920 You can't, you can't read it.
01:59:53.600 Uh, so, I mean, if you can't even have, like is going on with the, with the bachelor, bachelorette, I, I don't watch it.
02:00:03.700 So, but have you, have you seen it?
02:00:06.380 No, I have not seen.
02:00:07.220 One of the contestants went to an antebellum party, which is, you dress up like you're in the South.
02:00:12.500 Yeah.
02:00:12.780 And so Chris Harrison, who hosts the show said, uh, that sounds like the woke police.
02:00:20.860 It's coming after you.
02:00:22.600 He's off the show.
02:00:24.100 Now he had to step aside for the rest of the year, at least, and maybe forever.
02:00:28.480 I wouldn't be surprised if ABC doesn't just fire him outright.
02:00:31.720 Oh, ABC has become, Oh, I mean, it's a mouse with a badge, man.
02:00:36.560 Yeah.
02:00:36.800 That's all it is.
02:00:37.700 Yep.
02:00:38.040 It's a mouse with a badge.
02:00:39.140 You know, they, I ranted last week.
02:00:42.440 You want to talk about hypocrites?
02:00:44.780 The mouse decides who works, who doesn't.
02:00:48.640 And yet in the, in Mulan, they film it over in China and they thank the people in the province that are rounding Uyghurs up.
02:00:59.420 Oh my God.
02:01:00.060 That's acceptable.
02:01:02.000 But what that guy said is not.
02:01:05.020 Oh my.
02:01:06.200 I mean, no, thank you.
02:01:07.720 No, thank you.
02:01:10.300 It is these, these corporations.
02:01:13.280 And I've always been pro corporation.
02:01:16.080 I asked you earlier, have your political values changed?
02:01:19.860 No, no.
02:01:21.380 Have your views on corporations changed?
02:01:24.720 Yeah, absolutely.
02:01:25.880 I mean, the left was right about what was coming with corporations.
02:01:29.920 They were correct about it, but now they're all for it.
02:01:33.600 Now, all of a sudden, as these corporations are taking our country and taking control of the country and the world, they're fine with it.
02:01:43.340 I don't understand.
02:01:45.460 As long as your corporation is run by a left, a leftist, they love you.
02:01:50.380 Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google.
02:01:54.120 They're fine with them all.
02:01:55.760 Even though they're essentially four different governments that are kind of running the show right now.
02:02:01.660 I don't even think they're four different governments.
02:02:03.420 About four, the same government.
02:02:05.180 They're the same government.
02:02:06.000 And they're in collusion with the United States government.
02:02:08.560 Oh, absolutely.
02:02:09.140 They're absolutely in collusion.
02:02:11.020 You know, when Facebook says, hey, we got to take Parler off, and they take Parler off, even though the evidence shows there was more hate and more organizing for January 6th on Facebook, when they can get all of the corporations to destroy Parler, that's one corporation.
02:02:33.540 That's four corporations all walking as one and all doing the bidding for their other partner, the government.
02:02:42.320 Where's the left?
02:02:43.760 Where are those people that used to say, I'm for rights, and I don't like rights that are being trampled on by corporations?
02:02:50.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
