The Glenn Beck Program - While the World Was Distracted … ｜ Guest： Nigel Farage ｜ 8⧸30⧸21

00:00:00.000 Let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor.

00:00:02.260 It's Rough Greens.

00:00:03.720 Got back over the weekend from the Middle East and couldn't wait to see my dog.

00:00:09.120 My dog was excited, playful.

00:00:13.240 I've never seen him like this, honestly.

00:00:17.260 His whole life, he has not taken the ball and run with it.

00:00:21.780 And he is constantly like a puppy.

00:00:25.880 And I think it's Rough Greens.

00:00:27.580 I mean, that's when everything changed.

00:00:30.460 We started sprinkling this supplement on his dog food and he changed.

00:00:35.580 And it was fun to watch over the last six months.

00:00:38.540 But he is, you know, over the first six months.

00:00:42.080 But he's a different dog.

00:00:43.840 Get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog to try out now.

00:00:46.820 All you pay for is shipping just to make sure that your dog will eat it.

00:00:50.240 If they do, if you put it on their food and they eat it, watch the changes that happen in your dog over a six-month period.

00:00:56.420 It's amazing.

00:00:57.780 Rough Greens dot com slash Beck.

00:00:59.780 833-Glenn33 is the phone number.

00:01:02.480 Or go to the website, Rough Greens dot com slash Beck.

00:01:05.580 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:35.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:44.140 Well, we're back in Studio 8H of the Mercury Studios Complex in Dallas, Texas.

00:01:50.580 I will give you an update on what has happened in the Middle East and what is currently happening in the Middle East.

00:01:57.680 Next, we begin with a mother of one of the fallen Marines.

00:02:04.640 We do that in 60 seconds.

00:02:06.740 Paul wrote in recently about his experience working with American financing.

00:02:14.840 He says, I don't think I could get a better rate than my then current and already very low rate.

00:02:20.300 But I kept hearing Glenn Beck talk about it over and over again about how great American financing is.

00:02:25.060 So we made an appointment.

00:02:26.720 The rest is history.

00:02:27.700 We took a year off of our mortgage and we saved a few hundred dollars on our monthly mortgage payment.

00:02:33.900 Thank you, Glenn.

00:02:35.040 Thank you, American financing.

00:02:36.520 Paul, you are more than welcome.

00:02:38.680 I am glad that you made the call, even though you didn't think it was going to work for you.

00:02:43.220 That's what many people think.

00:02:45.000 You should call American financing right now and see if you could save a hundred, two hundred.

00:02:50.720 As Paul said, a few hundred up to a thousand dollars a month.

00:02:54.460 It's eight hundred nine zero six twenty four forty.

00:02:57.420 That's the number to call right now.

00:02:59.340 Eight hundred nine zero six twenty four forty.

00:03:01.980 It's American financing.

00:03:03.460 American financing dot net.

00:03:05.300 American financing NMLS one eight two three three four.

00:03:11.640 There was a phone call that came in to Andrew Wilkow.

00:03:30.920 It is from a mother who lost her son.

00:03:37.080 Her name is Kathy McCollum.

00:03:42.400 Riley was her 20 year old son.

00:03:46.220 She was obviously very upset.

00:03:50.420 She had just learned the news and she picked up the phone and called Andrew Wilkow.

00:03:57.720 And here's what happened.

00:03:59.400 Got twenty five Colorado.

00:04:00.860 You're on the Wilkow majority.

00:04:01.880 Hello.

00:04:03.300 Hey, my son was one of the Marines that died yesterday.

00:04:07.080 I don't listen to that.

00:04:12.040 Sorry, I'm on the radio.

00:04:13.720 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:04:17.280 Got my son was one of the Marines that died yesterday.

00:04:22.560 Twenty years and six months old, getting ready to come home for frickin Jordan to be with his wife to watch the birth of his son.

00:04:30.620 And that feckless, dementia ridden piece of crap just sent my son to die. 0.77

00:04:36.680 I woke up at four o'clock this morning to Marines at my door telling me my son was dead.

00:04:44.940 So to have her on right before me and listen to that piece of crap, talk about diplomatic crap with frickin Taliban terrorists who just frickin blew up my son and know nothing to not say anything about. 0.99

00:05:03.780 Oh, my God, oh, my God.

00:05:04.460 I'm so sorry for the family.

00:05:07.520 So my son is gone.

00:05:09.760 And I just want all you Democrats who cheated in the election or who voted for him legitimately.

00:05:17.140 You just killed my son.

00:05:20.380 With a dementia ridden piece of crap who doesn't even know he's in the White House.

00:05:23.900 He still thinks he's a senator.

00:05:25.000 So I'm going to try and calm down.

00:05:29.720 I'm sorry.

00:05:30.780 No, you look.

00:05:34.560 You can imagine just a few hours after hearing that your son was dead, that you would be quite angry and emotional.

00:05:51.200 And I'm guessing that Kathy is still very angry.

00:05:58.800 We hope to have her on by the end of the program today. 0.93

00:06:05.620 There were vigils all over the country over the weekend for these falling fallen Marines.

00:06:15.080 And.

00:06:17.680 None of it had to happen.

00:06:19.760 I don't know if you saw the Washington Post, the fall of Kabul.

00:06:25.280 It is absolutely incredible.

00:06:30.060 How clueless everyone was.

00:06:34.780 From the Washington Post, this account of Kabul's fall, the climactic moment of America's longest war is based on nearly two dozen interviews with U.S. and Afghan officials.

00:06:45.760 In both Washington and Kabul, the days and weeks leading up to the fall were marked by complacency.

00:06:53.360 The United States was withdrawing its forces.

00:06:55.560 The Taliban was notching gains.

00:06:57.600 But the prevailing view in both capitals was that there was still plenty of time before the insurgents might take over a city of nearly five million people that had long been the nerve center of America's presence in the country.

00:07:10.340 President Ghani exuded that belief, according to Afghan and U.S. officials who, like others for the story, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.

00:07:21.940 But reports from the field suggest that in some cases, Afghan government forces were not fighting at all.

00:07:29.280 When the Taliban advanced on key border crossings with Iran in late June and early July, government forces abandoned their posts.

00:07:38.440 The young Western educated official who served as Ghani's national security advisor, but who had scant experience in military or security affairs, told others the government forces would soon retake them.

00:07:50.760 But no significant efforts ever materialized as the Taliban continued to accumulate gains.

00:07:58.120 The American officials began to see the president's confidence as delusion.

00:08:04.360 Then Gandhi's lack of focus on the threat that the Taliban posed mystified U.S. officials, in particular Marine General Kenneth Frank McKenzie, head of the U.S. Central Command and Ambassador Ross Wilson.

00:08:18.080 In a meeting with Gandhi in Kabul in July, the two men told the Afghan president that his team needed a realistic, implementable and widely supported plan to defend the country and had to drop the idea of defending all 34 provincial capitals.

00:08:36.820 They had to focus on what they could actually defend.

00:08:39.940 All provinces are important, but some were more important to the defense of Kabul.

00:08:45.100 Ghani appeared to agree, but there would be no follow through.

00:08:49.820 And that seemed to be the case on all parts.

00:08:55.640 They talk about how it was beginning to fall.

00:08:59.340 The provincial capitals fell.

00:09:01.840 On August 6th, two dozen others over nine days, two dozen other cities would fall.

00:09:10.460 And Gandhi, I mean, Gandhi, Ghani would want to talk about digitization of money.

00:09:18.660 Isn't that interesting that that's what he was focused on was the new digital money.

00:09:23.080 An official who knew the president's plan for government salary payment system.

00:09:29.220 It had nothing to do with the dire threat, he said.

00:09:32.660 As late of Saturday afternoon before Kabul fell, Ghani did not suggest any urgency around the department departure arrangements or the safety of senior staff.

00:09:42.420 Receiving one advisor in the palace gardens and speaking in his character, characteristic soft tones, he made arrangements to shore up the country's economy.

00:09:52.280 He was supposed to address the nation later that night, but he never did.

00:09:57.720 Americans, meanwhile, were suffering from their own delusions. 0.92

00:10:02.140 In June, U.S. intelligence agencies had assessed that the Afghan government would hang on for at least another six months.

00:10:09.000 By August, the dominant view was the Taliban wasn't likely to pose a serious threat to Kabul until at least the late fall.

00:10:18.700 So now, if this is correct, this is a massive, massive failure of the intelligence department once again.

00:10:30.160 How are our intelligence agencies this wrong?

00:10:33.540 American officials may have been urging Ghani to show greater urgency, but their own actions suggested no immediate cause for alarm.

00:10:42.320 With the officials surrendering to the customary rhythms of Washington in August, on the Friday afternoon before Kabul fell, the White House was starting to empty out as many of the senior staff prepared to take their first vacations of Biden's young presidency.

00:10:59.440 Early in the day, Biden had arrived at Camp David and Secretary of State Antony Blinken was already in the Hamptons.

00:11:10.140 By Saturday, the fall of one city to Taliban forces convinced U.S. officials that they needed to scramble.

00:11:24.060 How quickly was a subject of dispute between the Pentagon and State Department?

00:11:30.260 So they couldn't decide on, should we scramble really fast or kind of fast?

00:11:34.720 In a conference call with Biden and his top security aides, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin called for the immediate relocation of all U.S. embassy personnel to the Kabul airport.

00:11:44.840 Wilson's embassy colleagues had been racing to destroy classified documents and equipment in the compound since Friday.

00:11:52.680 An internal memo obtained by The Washington Post implored staff to destroy sensitive materials using incinerators.

00:12:03.640 Disincinerators.

00:12:04.320 What is that?

00:12:06.920 Disintegrate. 0.93

00:12:07.780 What is that?

00:12:08.680 Have you ever heard of that?

00:12:09.420 And burn bins.

00:12:11.920 The directive also calls called for the destruction of American flags or items that could be misused in propaganda efforts.

00:12:19.840 Wilson said U.S. personnel needed more time to complete their work, but Austin insisted time and run out.

00:12:26.160 Saturday evening, Kabul time.

00:12:27.980 Ghani and Blinken spoke by phone, hoping to avert a showdown in the capital.

00:12:31.920 Blinken sought Ghani support for a U.S.-brokered arrangement with the Taliban in which the militants would remain outside of Kabul if the Afghan leader would step aside as an interim government took charge.

00:12:44.140 The aim, said a senior U.S. official, was to buy time for negotiations aimed at forming an inclusive government that involved the Taliban as well as others.

00:12:53.440 The president reluctantly agreed.

00:12:55.600 Taliban insurgents captured key eastern Afghanistan city of Jabal al-Jahalabad without a fight on July 15th when the news that Kabul woke up to Sunday morning was ominous.

00:13:11.620 The overnight fall of Jabal al-Jahalabad had left the capital isolated.

00:13:17.000 Many shops remained shuttered and people stayed home from work.

00:13:20.300 This just collapsed so quickly and no one was paying attention to it.

00:13:31.720 Everyone was taken by surprise.

00:13:34.940 How?

00:13:35.680 I don't know.

00:13:41.220 Everybody started leaving that morning.

00:13:46.140 To head to the airport.

00:13:47.920 The the palace or the seat of government for President Ghani, he was told that he needed to get out fast.

00:14:02.060 They said that they were the Taliban was inside the palace looking for him and he was going to die if he didn't get out.

00:14:08.980 It'll either be you, your palace guards or the Taliban. 0.99

00:14:12.720 But if you stay, you will be killed.

00:14:15.400 The president wanted to return home to gather his belongings, but told by advisers there wasn't any time earlier that afternoon, wearing plastic sandals and a thin coat.

00:14:24.880 The president, along with the first lady and a handful of top aides, lifted off the palace grounds in military helicopters.

00:14:31.680 They flew out.

00:14:33.420 They landed in Uzbekistan.

00:14:35.440 From there, they boarded a small plane bound for the UAE.

00:14:38.660 Gandhi aides, Ghani aides, who had not been part of the hasty evacuation, returned from lunch to find out that the president was just gone, his office empty.

00:14:48.680 It goes on in this story to say he never called anyone at any time.

00:14:53.920 At any time.

00:14:55.200 He never called the vice president.

00:14:57.080 He never did anything while he was on the helicopter.

00:15:00.380 There were no calls when he landed, no calls.

00:15:04.800 Nothing.

00:15:05.780 He just left.

00:15:09.420 That's when the Taliban called us.

00:15:14.640 And the Taliban said, we're at the edge of the city.

00:15:18.400 And you either need to step in and fill the vacuum and get control of the city because it's in chaos, or we will.

00:15:31.260 Biden's White House said, go for it.

00:15:35.920 We didn't take a deal offered by the stinking Taliban to take control of the city to hold the city in place. 0.89

00:15:47.680 And because of that, the Taliban came in with our permission. 0.99

00:15:54.500 And that's when the whole thing melted down.

00:15:57.240 That's when thousands of people rushed to the airport.

00:16:02.040 They gave us the choice.

00:16:04.440 Do you want to control the city or do you want to control the airport until August 31st?

00:16:09.480 We said the airport.

00:16:10.500 We chose the airport.

00:16:11.860 Now, they're saying only 240 Americans are left.

00:16:16.420 That is a lie.

00:16:18.740 That is a lie.

00:16:21.000 I have more than 240 requests from people coming into our email.

00:16:26.100 They're saying, please, can you help us get out?

00:16:29.580 It's a lie.

00:16:30.840 Well, they are saying, Glenn, there's only 240 who want to leave.

00:16:38.700 Yeah.

00:16:39.120 The others just are locked into Taliban rule.

00:16:42.120 Should I forward the emails?

00:16:44.820 Or do you think the list of those people will be falling into the hands of the Taliban so they can be rounded up and killed as well?

00:16:51.820 Well, it's sick.

00:16:56.640 Not in my entire life that I know of did our country openly, openly take the wrong side.

00:17:08.260 We have done things that we later find out that we don't like.

00:17:12.640 But I have never seen our country openly do things that was on the wrong side.

00:17:23.320 In the civil rights movement, I saw states and I saw local police do things that were on the wrong side.

00:17:36.560 But never have I seen our federal government openly do that.

00:17:42.640 It's sick.

00:17:47.240 More in a minute.

00:17:48.220 First, let me tell you about Rita.

00:17:49.700 She lives in Florida.

00:17:50.820 She writes in to talk about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

00:17:54.260 She says, my dog, Timmy's liquid heart medication is added to his prescription dog food.

00:17:58.820 Oh, boy, doesn't that sound good?

00:18:00.360 So as you can imagine, it's critical that he eats, but he's lost interest in food after another sweet older dog of ours passed away.

00:18:09.040 That is so hard.

00:18:10.800 I have seen that with my dog, too.

00:18:12.800 They will lose the will to just go on.

00:18:16.180 I decided to try Rough Greens, and I'm happy I did.

00:18:19.520 With Rough Greens stirred into his food, Timmy was not only interested in eating again, he also wanted to go for a walk and play with his toys.

00:18:27.520 Even chase squirrels again.

00:18:28.980 Thank you so much, Rough Greens.

00:18:31.020 Rita, that's the best story I've heard for a long time.

00:18:34.940 I'm so happy that Timmy is eating again and acting like himself.

00:18:40.440 You can get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog just to try out, just to see if they will eat it.

00:18:45.280 All you pay for is shipping.

00:18:46.460 Then, if they do eat it, then order a full bag of Rough Greens at roughgreens.com slash beck.

00:18:54.180 And watch.

00:18:55.580 Watch the difference in your dog over a couple of months.

00:18:58.300 It's pretty amazing.

00:18:59.620 833-GLEN-33.

00:19:01.520 833-GLEN-33.

00:19:03.240 Roughgreens.com slash beck.

00:19:05.680 10-second station ID.

00:19:06.740 So, did you see the president, the video?

00:19:26.300 Do we happen to have the video of the president possibly falling asleep with the ambassador from Israel?

00:19:33.540 Have you seen that, Stu?

00:19:35.320 Yet another chapter.

00:19:37.600 And the beautiful story of the friendship between our two nations, the United States of America and the Jewish and democratic state of Israel.

00:19:48.580 Both of us who seek to do good and need to be strong.

00:19:53.700 Both of us who are...

00:19:57.460 Hey, yeah, he looks like he's...

00:19:59.540 He does move his finger at one point.

00:20:01.460 Ah, okay.

00:20:02.260 That's more than I expect out of him in a typical press conference.

00:20:05.300 Yeah.

00:20:05.500 So, I guess that's a positive.

00:20:07.440 Okay.

00:20:08.000 So, did you see the picture of him checking his watch yesterday?

00:20:13.560 With his hand on his heart.

00:20:15.880 As the remains of the fallen service members come into Dover.

00:20:24.800 He looks at his watch.

00:20:26.600 We have that picture?

00:20:27.900 There it is.

00:20:29.060 Have you...

00:20:30.220 Which one's worse?

00:20:32.440 Which one's worse?

00:20:33.220 Which one's worse?

00:20:33.240 Falling asleep for the ambassador or looking at his watch?

00:20:39.440 You know, this is the time a nation needs a president who's able to stay awake.

00:20:47.400 This is the type of time where you...

00:20:50.460 When you go through your choice at the polls.

00:20:53.360 Pretty high standards.

00:20:54.120 You think if this sort of situation occurs, I would adore a president who is able to stay awake during daylight hours.

00:21:02.920 Who's going to take the phone call at 3 a.m.?

00:21:06.680 Or 3 p.m. in this particular case.

00:21:09.740 Yeah.

00:21:10.680 Noon?

00:21:11.380 Yeah.

00:21:12.240 10 o'clock in the morning?

00:21:13.600 Anytime, really.

00:21:14.960 Who's going to take the phone call anytime?

00:21:17.980 You know, it's also...

00:21:19.360 Have you ever seen the president and the vice president hidden away as much as he and Kamala are?

00:21:28.540 No.

00:21:29.460 He...

00:21:30.460 People keep saying, where is he?

00:21:33.380 And it's a real question.

00:21:34.840 At times, it feels like we don't have a president at all.

00:21:37.220 Right.

00:21:37.440 And I think it feels to me like Kamala is like, I don't want to be in any of these camera shots.

00:21:42.920 I don't want to be associated with this at all.

00:21:45.020 She was gone, though, last week.

00:21:45.780 She was just gone.

00:21:46.860 Yeah.

00:21:47.000 She's just trying to stay out of the limelight, hoping that the stink from Biden doesn't reach her.

00:21:52.900 Which I don't know if that's possible, but that's what I think she's attempting to do.

00:21:56.940 Again, anytime you want to analyze an action from Kamala Harris, you just need to wind up thinking like she's always thinking about what makes her situation better.

00:22:10.120 So she's always thinking about herself.

00:22:11.960 That's always number one to Kamala Harris.

00:22:14.200 So what is she doing?

00:22:15.520 No, that's not true.

00:22:16.400 Is that true?

00:22:17.100 Kamala?

00:22:17.660 Really?

00:22:18.420 No, it's not.

00:22:20.620 Oh, my gosh.

00:22:24.740 Which is worse?

00:24:30.120 Pretty much anywhere.

00:24:31.040 Anywhere.

00:24:31.740 Thank you very much, Pat.

00:24:33.220 Back from the Middle East. 1.00

00:24:35.260 It came in on Saturday.

00:24:38.680 Wow, there's nothing like flying to the other side of the planet for a couple of days and then flying back.

00:24:43.180 Oh, it's good.

00:24:44.500 It's good on the body.

00:24:45.200 It's good on the body.

00:24:46.280 Really good on the body.

00:24:47.900 But we, I'm not going to be saying much for the next few days because the airport is officially closed now.

00:25:01.680 Only the military side is getting anybody out.

00:25:06.320 The commercial side is completely gone.

00:25:10.000 There are about 12,000 refugees that groups like Mighty Oaks Foundation, the Nazarene Fund, and others have been working to get out together.

00:25:28.900 We have taken 12,000 people out just arriving in two airports.

00:25:38.800 That's quite a good number for something that is absolutely impossible to do.

00:25:44.960 Do not take our blackout as anything other than we're keeping our mouths shut because we know that the Taliban is monitoring groups like ours for additional information.

00:26:04.600 They are actively searching for people.

00:26:08.400 They are now, you know, the good thing is they're in bed with the Russians and the Chinese. 1.00

00:26:12.480 So that always is going to be good.

00:26:13.760 They are now monitoring phones and tracking phones.

00:26:18.020 If you know someone in the Middle East in this situation, please tell them to turn their phones off. 1.00

00:26:25.560 Turn your phone off.

00:26:28.580 If you need to use passwords with each other so you know who you're talking to and pick maybe an hour a day that you're going to use your phone, but turn it off.

00:26:47.680 Turn it off.

00:26:50.580 Okay.

00:26:51.480 Other than that, things were great.

00:26:54.080 Things are great.

00:26:54.840 Hopefully, we'll have a really exciting announcement coming this week, perhaps this week.

00:27:03.160 We'll tell you pretty much.

00:27:05.400 We'll tell you when we're there, but please keep people in your prayers.

00:27:10.640 There are thousands that are in hiding and want to get out.

00:27:16.000 Many Americans.

00:27:18.260 Yeah.

00:27:18.840 The figure I keep hearing on Fox and elsewhere is 250.

00:27:23.660 I can't believe there's only 250 Americans left.

00:27:26.440 There's not.

00:27:26.840 Because the original estimate was between 10,000 and 40,000.

00:27:31.440 And so far, the number I just heard is 120,000 people we've evacuated and 5,400 of them were American.

00:27:40.680 5,400.

00:27:41.960 Well, then there are thousands of people left behind.

00:27:46.580 And there are really bad guys that are getting onto the planes.

00:27:50.780 Really bad guys.

00:27:51.560 Sure.

00:27:52.080 Yeah.

00:27:52.300 Really bad guys.

00:27:53.580 Sure.

00:27:54.320 And I hope that our government is, I mean, those are the people that are coming.

00:27:58.940 Our 12,000 are not coming to the United States.

00:28:03.800 I can vouch for 5,100 for sure, because that's the ones we've been partnering with Mighty Oaks Foundation.

00:28:14.560 And they've been getting people in, and they've been using our planes to get them out, and we've been sharing things.

00:28:21.880 And 5,100 people I can vouch are not coming to America.

00:28:28.120 I don't think any of the private rescues are going to America, unless they're American citizens.

00:28:36.020 But I could be wrong.

00:28:37.880 But they are just loading up the planes.

00:28:40.500 Just loading up the planes on the military side.

00:28:43.960 And I don't know how they're vetting them.

00:28:48.220 I don't know.

00:28:49.780 And they're coming to Texas.

00:28:51.740 A lot of them are coming here to Texas.

00:28:54.200 And I hope we're very, very careful.

00:28:58.720 Yeah.

00:28:59.960 Yeah, because it's, you know, it's a little nerve-wracking coming from a place like Afghanistan with the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.

00:29:07.800 Do you know what they did?

00:29:08.880 You know, you had to have paperwork.

00:29:10.780 You had to have paperwork.

00:29:11.700 So what the State Department was doing on the military side was they were just handing out blank visas.

00:29:20.220 So you could just, they were just handing out blank, just fill your name in, just fill your name in.

00:29:24.400 It gets you through the gate, just fill your name in.

00:29:26.800 Really?

00:29:27.360 I'm sure that's not going to be a problem at all.

00:29:30.120 No.

00:29:30.840 What could go wrong there, do you think?

00:29:33.940 I can't think of a single thing.

00:29:35.720 I can't think of anything either.

00:29:37.800 Okay, so last week you had a, I think it was a lieutenant colonel of the Marines come out and speak out, demand accountability.

00:29:50.500 Here's what he said.

00:29:51.460 Listen to this.

00:29:52.500 All of these people are supposed to advise.

00:29:54.280 And I'm not saying we've got to be in Afghanistan forever.

00:29:57.520 But I am saying, did any of you throw your rank on the table and say, hey, it's a bad idea to evacuate Bagram Airfield, the strategic airburys, before we evacuate everyone?

00:30:06.440 Did anyone do that?

00:30:07.700 And when you didn't think to do that, did anyone raise their hand and say, we completely messed this up?

00:30:11.820 I've got battalion commander friends right now that are posting similar things, and they're saying, you know, wondering if all the lives were lost and if it was in vain, all those people that we've lost over the last 20 years.

00:30:26.140 And he goes on to say that we're all part of a chain, while every link may not be tested, the strength of the chain is only as strong as each link, and you've got to be a good link, something like that.

00:30:37.760 And what I'll say is, and from my position, potentially all those people did die in vain if we don't have senior leaders that own up and raise their hand and say, we did not do this well in the end.

00:30:54.960 Without that, we just keep repeating the same mistakes, this amalgamation of the economic slash corporate slash political slash higher military ranks are not holding up their end of the bargain.

00:31:14.860 I want to say this very strongly.

00:31:19.440 I have been fighting for 17 years.

00:31:21.940 I am willing to throw it all away to say to my senior leaders, I demand accountability.

00:31:30.420 Nothing wrong with that, except he's wearing uniform while he did it.

00:31:35.280 He recognized that was wrong, and he has resigned.

00:31:39.900 And he was given a choice by the military.

00:31:43.680 You can either face disciplinary action.

00:31:48.860 It would be about a three-year investigation on him.

00:31:51.940 Face disciplinary action.

00:31:54.080 Shut your mouth during it.

00:31:56.500 Or resign, and you are cut off from all benefits.

00:32:01.040 Now, he's been doing this for 20 years.

00:32:04.360 He's earned all of his benefits.

00:32:07.080 He, over the weekend, put his rank on the table and said, I resign, and I want nothing except answers.

00:32:18.660 Now, his latest video is a little weird.

00:32:24.140 If you watch the full thing, and I'm not sure if it's because he feels challenged now, and he's trying to puff, you know, puff himself, not himself, but puff up just a bit to say, you're not going to take me out.

00:32:40.180 Because he is now in a struggle for his life, because he is now saying he is going to say things and report things that will take down the corrupt military-industrial complex.

00:32:55.640 And you should watch it, because I'm not sure yet how I feel on him.

00:33:04.560 On this video, I felt great.

00:33:07.240 Good for you.

00:33:08.020 That's what we're looking for, is somebody who's willing to put their brass down on the table and say, I don't really care what you do.

00:33:16.020 I just won't do this anymore, and I want some answers, and I'll tell the American people that you deserve answers.

00:33:24.760 Here's a clip of what he said in his latest video.

00:33:28.720 When I was a young captain, I worked for a man named Lieutenant Colonel Hobbs, and we went through some things together, and he, many people don't know, was actually relieved as an 06 for standing up for moral things that he thought was right.

00:33:45.180 And he did it within the system, as a lot of people have implored me to do, and he was just shuffled out the door without really affecting any change.

00:33:53.180 And then after he exited the Marine Corps, he's made a lot of controversy by talking about racial diversity and equal opportunity problems in the Marine Corps.

00:34:05.840 And from that respect, I have adamantly disagreed with him.

00:34:10.580 But just because we have different opinions doesn't mean I don't respect him.

00:34:17.320 Sir, I love you like a father.

00:34:19.560 And you made a comment on one of the posts on LinkedIn without giving anyone context of who you were or what our relationship was.

00:34:29.340 And you said, if Stuart Scheller was honorable, he would resign his commission.

00:34:37.740 Of all the noise going out there, that one comment has just played through my head.

00:34:45.800 If Stuart Scheller was honorable, he would resign his commission.

00:34:49.560 You didn't say is, as if in challenging me.

00:34:53.400 You said was, as if you assumed I wouldn't do it.

00:35:03.000 I want to make the announcement today.

00:35:07.000 After 17 years, I'm currently not pending legal action.

00:35:11.460 And I could stay in the Marine Corps for another three years.

00:35:16.840 But I don't think that's the path I'm on.

00:35:19.800 I'm resigning my commission as a United States Marine, effective now.

00:35:23.600 I'm sure there's some more admin on how I'm supposed to do that.

00:35:25.580 And I'll work through that.

00:35:27.640 But I am forfeiting my retirement, all entitlements.

00:35:30.440 I don't want a single dollar.

00:35:31.900 I don't want any money from the VA.

00:35:33.580 I don't want any VA benefits.

00:35:34.780 I'm sure I'm entitled to 100%.

00:35:36.620 I, you know, breathed on the smell and smoke of burning s*** for years.

00:35:44.680 I don't want any of it.

00:35:50.920 You know, I asked, all I asked for was accountability of my senior leaders when there are clear, obvious mistakes that were made.

00:36:01.660 I'm not saying we can take back what has been done.

00:36:04.000 All I asked for was accountability.

00:36:06.320 For people to comment on what I said and to say, yes, mistakes were made.

00:36:11.220 And had they done that, I would have gone back into rank and file, submitted, and accomplished what I wanted.

00:36:18.580 The morning after I posted my video and I came into work, my boss came in and he asked me, what were you trying to accomplish?

00:36:25.020 And that was a very tough question for me.

00:36:27.000 And my response was, I want senior leaders to accept accountability.

00:36:30.300 I think them accepting accountability would do more for service members and PTSD and struggling with purpose than any other transparent piece of paper or message.

00:36:39.200 What he said there, I 100% agree with.

00:36:43.560 100% agree with.

00:36:45.300 Yeah.

00:36:46.520 Especially since Biden told us there were no mistakes made.

00:36:50.780 He didn't make any mistakes.

00:36:53.280 We all know Biden's mistakes.

00:36:55.520 I'd like to know what the military says.

00:36:57.480 Yeah.

00:36:57.620 I'd like to know that the military understands that they made massive mistakes.

00:37:03.540 And they can say, look, we advised against it.

00:37:07.160 You know, that's fine.

00:37:08.500 I just want to know that our military understands exactly what has just transpired.

00:37:15.880 And there are going to be hearings about this.

00:37:18.660 Believe me, there are going to be hearings.

00:37:21.400 More in just a second.

00:37:22.900 Pat Gray, Pat Gray Unleashed.

00:37:24.260 Thank you so much for being here.

00:37:26.720 Tuttle Twins books.

00:37:27.720 If you're you remember that teacher in Utah, I think it was last week or was it the week before where she came out and said, most parents are dumber than you kids.

00:37:36.640 You don't have to believe everything your parents believe most because most likely you're smarter than them.

00:37:41.160 That's a real quote from a real teacher.

00:37:45.120 Thankfully, the school board fired that person.

00:37:48.960 But I can guarantee you there's probably somebody like that in your school district that's saying the same kinds of things.

00:37:58.200 Do you really know what your kids are being taught?

00:38:02.140 Bad information is only effectively countered with good information.

00:38:07.880 That's why I want to talk to you about the Tuttle Twins books.

00:38:10.560 They teach liberty and and the republic and the free market in a fun way that kids can actually understand.

00:38:19.820 And they start with young kid books all the way to young adult books.

00:38:25.280 And really, I mean, I think a lot of parents are learning a lot from the Tuttle Twins books right now.

00:38:58.160 Mercury One had sleepless nights all last week,

00:39:03.360 aiding with the evacuation and and and and the coordination in Kabul.

00:39:11.780 Please pray for all of the volunteers at Mercury One and the Nazarene Fund and all of the groups that are trying to work on this.

00:39:20.420 And then we were hit with a hurricane in in New Orleans, rip the the roof off of a hospital.

00:39:29.180 They're trying to relocate the ICU patients today.

00:39:31.980 Power has just gone out.

00:39:33.540 But who who would have thunk?

00:39:36.540 I guess they didn't they didn't really prepare New Orleans for yet another hurricane.

00:39:41.900 It's getting a little it's getting a little old, quite honestly, sending money down there.

00:39:46.620 And then it's being wasted and not used to do the right things.

00:39:51.020 But they're in trouble again.

00:39:54.180 And if you would like to help out, you can donate to Mercury One dot org to our disaster relief fund.

00:40:03.300 And that money goes to things like New Orleans, whoever is hit.

00:40:07.560 And by the way, we don't just give the money out.

00:40:11.460 We we look for the people who make the biggest difference on the ground.

00:40:17.440 And the ones who can deliver most impact for the dollar are the ones that we choose.

00:40:39.960 Mercury One dot org is where you can go and donate.

00:40:44.640 And you can donate there to the Nazarene Fund.

00:40:48.360 But the Nazarene Fund or disaster relief or education, it's up to you.

00:40:53.480 But we we could use the help.

00:43:33.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:43.380 Hello, America.

00:43:44.800 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:47.680 As we are back from the Middle East, I have an update for you on the Nazarene Fund and some of the things that are going on and why we have to now remain quiet for a little while.

00:43:59.520 So we'll give you an update on that.

00:44:02.360 But as everybody is bogged down in the Middle East and looking at that, one thing that we haven't looked at really is what does this mean for the U.S.

00:44:12.500 because of our allies?

00:44:13.940 Do our allies even trust us anymore?

00:44:16.520 Nigel Farage, the Brexit Party leader, is joining us next from, I believe he's in London now, to talk to us about what the British Parliament has said and done in 60 seconds.

00:44:32.500 You know, they say the little things in life are the most satisfying, and maybe that's true most of the time, but sometimes the big things count, too.

00:44:43.640 You know, really satisfying, like when you're buying or selling your home and it goes well, that's kind of satisfying.

00:44:49.620 Yeah, and it's a big thing.

00:44:51.540 It can be a real headache if you don't have the right real estate agent.

00:45:12.800 How do you even interview a real estate agent?

00:45:15.580 So many of us are just like, I don't know.

00:45:17.760 You know, my nephew, he just started in the real estate business, and you should give him a call.

00:45:24.360 And we do for some strange reason.

00:45:26.900 Don't do it.

00:45:27.620 It's the biggest investment of your life.

00:45:43.060 Nigel Farage, we sat at dinner in the capital.

00:45:50.620 It must have been almost, gosh, two years ago now?

00:45:55.480 And I don't think we could have seen this coming, our split in our alliance, or at least it feels like that.

00:46:04.180 Nigel Farage, welcome to the program.

00:46:05.640 Glenn, thank you very much indeed.

00:46:08.700 And listening to your introduction, I mean, look, you know, I've spent 40 years working for American companies in business, being allied politically with Donald Trump and many friends in the Republican Party.

00:46:21.440 I mean, there's nobody this side of the pond who's more pro-American, more pro the special relationship than I am.

00:46:28.920 And it hurts me to say this.

00:46:30.960 But for Biden to unconditionally withdraw from a military mission after 20 years without any planning or any foresight as to how we get our nationals out in the case of a Taliban advance,

00:46:46.080 and to do it without even consulting the British Prime Minister and refusing to answer his phone call for almost 48 hours, sends a message to us.

00:46:58.000 And the message is we cannot trust America, despite being our closest partner for over 100 years.

00:47:05.340 We cannot trust America with this man in charge.

00:47:08.680 And it's a sad realization, but it's true. 0.68

00:47:11.800 And I think it goes even further than the relationship between the UK and the USA.

00:47:17.440 I think NATO, frankly, I mean, ceases to function.

00:47:21.000 So the damage that Biden has done to America's international reputation couldn't be greater.

00:47:27.500 Yeah, they were all yelling at Donald Trump, saying that he was going to destroy NATO.

00:47:33.080 And I think this has destroyed NATO.

00:47:35.400 I mean, what does what does our alliance even mean?

00:47:40.340 I mean, I cannot believe that the White House refused the call of the British prime minister for over 40 hours.

00:47:48.820 That that's incomprehensible to me.

00:47:52.760 Yes, it is incomprehensible.

00:47:54.300 But it's also, isn't it, the way that international mainstream media wanted to portray the Trump movement, just indeed, as they did with the Brexit movement.

00:48:03.140 You know, Trump is going to destroy NATO.

00:48:05.760 No, no, no, no.

00:48:06.540 What Trump did, he turned up at the NATO HQ in Brussels and said, and Obama had said similar before, but without any particular strength, that we cannot go on with a NATO where major countries like Germany are only paying half the membership fee.

00:48:22.740 The NATO rules are actually very fair.

00:48:24.900 Regardless of the size of the country, you must spend 2% of GDP on defense, and the Germans were spending one.

00:48:31.100 So actually, in many ways, what Trump was doing was trying to make NATO fair, but it was willfully, willfully misportrayed.

00:48:40.260 What Biden has done is to say, look, you know, we're the big guys in NATO, but hey, we just do stuff without consulting.

00:48:48.480 Despite the fact you, too, have had many hundreds of people killed in Afghanistan and put big money into Afghanistan, but without even the complement of a conversation, we've decided that effectively the NATO mission is over.

00:49:01.900 So, yeah, special relationship with Britain, completely in tatters NATO, I'm not even sure it can possibly survive what it's just gone through.

00:49:11.520 And, of course, you know, when you look at those photographs today of Taliban soldiers now dressed in American military equipment with $85 billion worth of U.S. military hardware now in the hands of these people with the giant lithium reserves that exist within Afghanistan,

00:49:34.460 now completely open to exploitation with communist China and warnings coming in the UK today that our terrorism threat is now going up directly as a result of what has happened in Afghanistan.

00:49:47.820 And one of the most overused words in the English language is disaster.

00:49:52.240 But believe me, Glenn, this is, on every level, a disaster.

00:49:56.740 I heard things coming from the Parliament and the House of Lords that I never have heard before.

00:50:05.760 Things like, we don't trust America.

00:50:09.420 We don't know if we can get into a military operation again with America.

00:50:17.820 How significant is what's said on the floor of Parliament in the House of Lords?

00:50:25.420 Oh, it's significant, Lord.

00:50:26.860 I mean, look, ever since 1917, ever since America entered the First World War, you know, we have been beside each other throughout virtually every single major conflict.

00:50:37.640 I mean, side by side.

00:50:39.100 And, yes, of course, America is bigger than us.

00:50:42.320 But it's been a very, very important relationship.

00:50:45.280 And not just in terms of military, in terms of information sharing as well.

00:50:49.360 I mean, that's where, in many ways, that's where our two countries are the closest in sharing intelligence.

00:50:54.820 I'm not even sure right now that the British government or security forces would even share every piece of intelligence with an administration that has treated us with such complete and utter contempt.

00:51:10.420 Yes, of course, it is right that any government puts the interests of its own citizens first.

00:51:15.220 But you do that as well as consulting with your friends and allies.

00:51:20.120 And when you work with the Brits, I mean, you know, I know 1812 did happen, but it's a long time ago.

00:51:24.560 And I think we've been I think we've been forgiven.

00:51:27.360 I think we're OK.

00:51:28.480 I think we're OK.

00:51:29.360 But literally, since April 1917, you know, we are the two countries and we've shed much blood and spent much treasure all over the world, defeating Nazism and other terrible regimes. 0.78

00:51:43.100 And for us to have gone through those things together to now be treated like this, that is why you're hearing members of the House of Lords, members of the Parliament, senior commentators and people like me who are instinctively pro-American saying we have a real problem now.

00:51:59.360 And, you know, something, America, Biden, whether we like it or not, is the leader of the free world.

00:52:07.480 And it's him that we look to for really, really big things.

00:52:12.920 And frankly, if America falls, then Western civilization falls.

00:52:18.460 That is how great these stakes are.

00:52:20.920 I have to say for my own part, I think he'll be gone by November, December 2022.

00:52:27.800 I think it's very unlikely that he'll stay beyond that.

00:52:30.520 And the Democrats will make him the full guy for some very bad midterm results.

00:52:34.960 But I'm not too sure that Kamala Harris following it is going to be any better.

00:52:39.280 So, you know, to think this three and a half years, three and a half years of this administration to run, I'm just beginning to ask myself, how much more damage can they do?

00:52:50.100 If we had another September 11th, how hesitant, what would the world's reaction be to us right now, all of our allies?

00:52:58.120 Well, I think, to be honest with you, even without a September the 11th, any increase in jihadi terrorism across Europe or in the United Kingdom or anywhere else for that matter, I think the finger will be firmly pointing to Washington, D.C.

00:53:17.160 Because, you know, one thing that is true is that for the last handful of years, we've been remarkably free of these horrible jihadi attacks.

00:53:27.460 British intelligence is now warning that we do now face we do now face a significantly increased terror threat.

00:53:35.060 And that's because jihadi groups all over the world have taken great comfort from the way the Taliban have moved forward. 0.97

00:53:42.180 And, of course, they know and they know that Afghanistan once again will be a place where international terror can be plotted and can be planned. 0.87

00:53:50.840 Let me ask you something off the subject.

00:53:54.360 America is not seeing the revolt of the citizens of France and of England to these draconian COVID restrictions.

00:54:05.980 I mean, people in France are having picnics in the street in front of restaurants that are demanding you have, you know, a COVID passport.

00:54:17.220 And we're not seeing any of that.

00:54:22.020 Tell me what's going on over in Europe with the COVID mess.

00:54:27.760 Yeah.

00:54:28.380 Well, France is a very unique country in many ways.

00:54:32.020 And there are things about France we love and things about France that we don't necessarily like so much.

00:54:37.180 The English have a familiar saying about the French.

00:54:39.980 We say the French are revolting, by which we mean, by which by which we mean, the French love to take to the streets. 1.00

00:54:49.940 They love to revolt.

00:54:51.300 They love to protest.

00:54:52.680 Their fishermen do it.

00:54:54.000 Their farmers do it.

00:54:55.580 Direct action is a way of life in France.

00:54:57.740 And you're right.

00:54:59.660 The level of protest against vaccine passports, which President Macron is trying to impose in a very draconian manner, the level of protest against it in France is very significant indeed.

00:55:12.980 And I think Macron is facing a real problem across much of the rest of Europe, including the UK.

00:55:18.760 OK, whilst there is dissent, it's on nothing like the scale that it's taking place on in France.

00:55:26.320 Yeah.

00:55:26.640 And I, you know, let's see how this one plays out.

00:55:29.460 But I it wouldn't surprise me if the if the French protests don't succeed against vaccine passports.

00:55:37.560 I mean, come on.

00:55:38.720 You know, the idea that we have to show medical idea and goodness knows what else just to go and buy, you know, a cup of tea and a sandwich is frankly ridiculous.

00:55:47.980 It's against everything we've ever stood for.

00:55:51.060 It's just plain wrong.

00:55:53.560 Nigel Farage, one last question.

00:55:56.160 How are the American people perceived?

00:56:00.100 Are we perceived separate from the government or because a lot of people were against Donald Trump?

00:56:06.900 The media made him into an absolute tyrant monster.

00:56:10.960 Many of the people who are now complaining about Joe Biden hated Donald Trump.

00:56:16.700 I I tried to think of a country that would be friendly to conservatives here in America and constitutionalists.

00:56:24.120 And I can't think of any.

00:56:25.620 How are we perceived?

00:56:28.240 Yeah, it's been very difficult.

00:56:29.600 I mean, look, let's face it.

00:56:30.720 Biden is the creation of mainstream media and the social media giants.

00:56:36.060 I mean, they're the ones that allowed this man, promoted this man, made sure that there'd be no proper investigation into Hunter Biden, the laptop corruption, no question of tens of millions of mail out ballots being sent all over America.

00:56:51.720 So, you know, congratulations to the New York Times and CNN.

00:56:54.980 You got your man.

00:56:56.160 And look what good it's done.

00:56:57.900 Look, I think the truth of it is that British people certainly and I think most Europeans, we're not going to lay the blame of this at the door of ordinary Americans.

00:57:06.960 We can see that it's bumbling, incoherent Biden, a man who is not fit to be president.

00:57:13.540 So I don't think I don't think all Americans are damned by the actions of that man.

00:57:18.900 But I do think there are large sections of the media in our country, in your country that owe us the most almighty apology.

00:57:26.440 Yeah, I agree.

00:57:27.360 Well, let it start here.

00:57:29.120 We apologize.

00:57:30.000 There are millions of Americans who think this was incredibly mishandled at best.

00:57:38.880 And the way that we have treated our allies is despicable.

00:57:43.540 And we know that, Nigel.

00:57:45.160 Thank you so much.

00:57:46.040 Thank you.

00:57:46.460 Keep us alive over there.

00:57:47.620 Thank you.

00:57:48.120 You bet.

00:57:48.620 Nigel Farage.

00:57:49.740 You can follow him at Nigel underscore Farage on Twitter and the Brexit party dot org.

00:57:59.980 OK, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

00:58:02.680 It is LifeLock.

00:58:03.740 There are so many things where.

00:58:07.320 I mean, I don't even know what to do.

00:58:10.600 You know, that we're getting to the place to where you're you're like, oh, OK.

00:58:14.100 All right.

00:58:14.920 Cyber crime, cyber hackers.

00:58:17.320 It's more dangerous than it has ever been before.

00:58:20.220 I've got all kinds of things I'm worried about.

00:58:23.680 I'm worried about just my kids online.

00:58:25.600 I'm worried about COVID.

00:58:28.760 I'm worried about freedom.

00:58:29.980 I'm worried.

00:58:30.680 Can you stop?

00:58:31.940 Help.

00:58:32.320 Help.

00:58:33.100 Well, that's where LifeLock comes in.

00:58:34.900 They can't prevent all identity theft, but they are the best in the business.

00:58:40.940 And if somebody hacks in, they have a whole team to work with you to fix the problem.

00:59:10.340 Ten seconds.

00:59:11.200 Station I.D.

00:59:17.340 You know, I it's interesting to me that the Taliban is working with the Russians and working with the Chinese. 0.61

00:59:32.760 They were in before any of this.

00:59:40.240 Before our guys were even out of the country, they the Taliban was posing for pictures with the Chinese government officials.

00:59:47.880 That's pretty remarkable.

00:59:50.380 The reason why is they have rare earth minerals.

00:59:54.560 I believe we the United States has the largest deposit of rare earth minerals out of any country in the world.

01:00:00.660 But they're in Alaska and we're just not going to look for them.

01:00:04.920 We just won't do it.

01:00:06.120 I'm telling you, we're going to lose Alaska in my lifetime.

01:00:09.840 I believe we will lose Alaska because we are just morons.

01:00:14.240 The world is changing.

01:00:18.460 And the Taliban now is is now doing business with China and China doesn't care who they they don't care who they kill. 0.83

01:00:29.200 The Taliban kills everybody.

01:00:31.140 They don't care.

01:00:32.080 Just give us the rare earth minerals.

01:00:34.060 Now, China has also is they've just expanded into Latin America for a huge project in Argentina.

01:00:45.340 They are taking over the mines for lithium in Argentina.

01:00:52.620 Three hundred ninety one million dollar takeover offer.

01:00:54.980 We have got to pay attention to what is happening.

01:01:02.340 China is gobbling up all of the lithium.

01:01:05.200 Hey, Stu.

01:01:07.760 When is when is GM making its getting rid of its V8 engine?

01:01:13.400 I believe the I think twenty twenty five.

01:01:16.040 The entire company is fully electric, fully electric.

01:01:18.700 So it's twenty twenty one now they're doing the twenty twenty two models are coming out now.

01:01:25.280 Hybrids, all hybrids. 0.69

01:01:26.920 No, I mean, they are making some they're going out with a bang here with some real combustion engines here.

01:01:32.800 Right.

01:01:33.180 Right.

01:01:33.560 They all are.

01:01:34.220 But they all are.

01:01:34.980 Which is cool.

01:01:35.800 I mean, there's a good there's a good line going out, I think, right now.

01:01:38.640 But that's it.

01:01:39.300 This is it.

01:01:39.760 This is the last generation. 0.88

01:01:41.100 By the way, it's really an engine.

01:01:42.360 It's really good to keep people, you know, locked into their home areas with only, you know, four hundred mile radius or three hundred mile radius for some of these cars.

01:01:51.000 You're not going anywhere big.

01:01:52.460 You're not going anywhere far in these things.

01:01:55.220 But all of the cars, I mean, Ferrari is going to be I think by next year is going to be hybrids, all hybrids.

01:02:04.020 You by 2030 Ferrari, everybody but Bugatti.

01:02:09.600 And Bugatti, we just don't know about.

01:02:11.340 They haven't said.

01:02:12.360 But everyone is going to be out of the engine business by 2030.

01:02:17.760 Do you remember your Glenn?

01:02:19.900 We're of a certain age and may remember a controversy back.

01:02:23.340 And I got to be the 90s and maybe they're into the early 2000s on Al Gore when he was running for president in 2000.

01:02:32.160 People went through his old books and found where he said he thought he wanted to eliminate the combustion engine.

01:02:39.800 And it was a big controversy.

01:02:41.400 And it's like, wait, what?

01:02:42.820 You want to get rid of the combustion engine?

01:02:44.640 He was mocked for it.

01:02:45.980 And here we are 20 years later.

01:02:48.180 And we're general freaking motors.

01:02:50.960 We're eight years away from all combustion engines gone.

01:02:54.600 That's basically what they're saying.

01:02:56.220 All of them.

01:02:57.360 All combustion engines.

01:02:58.480 And they talk about it like maybe there'll be some that hang around for, you know, sporting purposes and, you know, things of that nature.

01:03:06.160 Let me ask you this.

01:03:07.480 Where does all that electricity come from?

01:03:09.880 Where does that electricity come from?

01:03:13.340 Wind power better get a lot more efficient.

01:03:16.220 Unless you're not building nuclear plants.

01:03:18.220 You're crazy.

01:03:19.200 And they're also getting rid of coal.

01:03:22.220 This is going to cause a massive shortage of electricity.

01:03:27.700 Massive.

01:03:28.140 You're not going to have brownouts. 0.96

01:03:29.740 You will have full blackouts nationwide.

01:03:33.480 As soon as this is...

01:03:34.380 California can't even handle it now.

01:03:35.840 Can't handle it now.

01:03:36.520 Let alone turning every single car on the road into an electric car.

01:03:39.680 It's craziness.

01:03:41.160 It is absolute madness.

01:03:43.100 And by the way, China is buying up all of the lithium mines.

01:03:49.440 Who's going to be making all of the batteries?

01:03:52.740 We are doing everything to surrender our status.

01:03:59.280 I mean, you want to talk about third world status?

01:04:04.460 That's what we're headed for.

01:04:06.960 And for no reason whatsoever.

01:04:11.660 All right.

01:04:13.100 More in just a second.

01:04:15.380 Can we talk about something happy?

01:04:17.520 No.

01:04:18.080 That is not allowed in this society today.

01:04:20.540 All right.

01:04:21.140 All right.

01:04:21.780 Well, 2022 isn't that far away.

01:04:24.540 That's something that's happy.

01:04:26.100 That's a million years away.

01:04:28.140 Have you seen how fast things are happening?

01:04:30.940 A million years away.

01:04:34.400 More in a second.

01:04:35.060 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:04:44.000 So let me ask you this question.

01:04:45.080 You find yourself turning on the news and feeling a little hopeless.

01:04:47.580 Everywhere you look, everything's being attacked.

01:04:49.580 Open borders, spending gone crazy, prospect of more mandates, lockdowns, inflation.

01:04:54.080 Oh, Afghanistan. 0.97

01:04:55.180 You know, here's here's the thing.

01:04:58.460 You might feel overwhelmed, but don't because it is the truly the power of one one individual doing what they know to be right.

01:05:08.540 And here's one thing you can do.

01:05:10.080 Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

01:05:14.400 They stand with the Constitution and they take their own money and they invest it in things to strengthen our constitutional values.

01:05:22.940 They're the only ones.

01:05:24.180 Do you know they have the widest coverage of anyone?

01:05:33.660 Do you know they're on the same cell towers?

01:05:35.520 Do you know they just won the number one status of consumer relations?

01:05:44.480 They have the best team.

01:05:46.600 Patriot Mobile dot com slash back.

01:06:11.820 So while we were all paying to Afghanistan, which, by the way, just let me thank you for everything that you have done.

01:06:19.800 And I am it's it's it's bothersome to me that I am getting any credit for any of this.

01:06:30.900 All of us have a job to do and all you have to do is say what's right and then just do what's right.

01:06:40.720 And you did you gave I suggested you gave.

01:06:44.380 And then other people are out there doing all the work to save.

01:06:48.260 And it's it's an amazing team effort.

01:06:51.520 It really is.

01:06:52.440 And it's not just the Nazarene Fund.

01:06:54.080 There are several groups that are all working together in tandem and in just one airport, just one weighing station.

01:07:04.300 Twelve thousand people were rescued that were not going anywhere.

01:07:08.080 It's it's remarkable.

01:07:11.640 We're not going to be talking about any rescue efforts for the time being.

01:07:19.020 Things have changed dramatically on the ground, become much more dangerous.

01:07:23.880 And we don't want to give the Taliban any tips on where people might be, what we're looking for in numbers or anything like that.

01:07:33.240 So we're going to be silent about rescue tips.

01:07:36.960 Do not mistake our silence for inaction.

01:07:41.340 We just cannot talk about it.

01:07:44.020 It is far too dangerous.

01:07:45.840 Now, things have changed.

01:07:47.380 We'll give you the updates as we can.

01:07:50.400 But as everybody was following this over the weekend, there's been some some other things that have happened.

01:07:58.180 For instance, Twitter has permanently banned Alec Berenson.

01:08:03.860 He is he is a guy who is anti covid vaccine.

01:08:10.420 Yeah, I don't think he would describe himself that way, but he's been very skeptical about covid, you know, the mainstream coverage of covid and the mainstream coverage of the vaccines.

01:08:19.260 OK, he said, according to him, covid vaccine.

01:08:23.360 It doesn't stop infection or transmission.

01:08:25.900 Don't think of it as a vaccine.

01:08:27.240 Think of it at best as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy.

01:08:31.340 Um, I kind of kind of agree with that.

01:08:36.460 It's it's like the it's like the flu vaccine.

01:08:41.820 It might be geared to the current flu, but it's it's not going to cover you forever.

01:08:47.520 However, the flu is constantly changing the same thing.

01:08:50.860 We're going to live with covid forever.

01:08:54.120 The idea of wiping it out is ridiculous.

01:08:56.980 It's not going to happen.

01:08:58.580 I think you can agree or disagree with Alex on a lot of the points he makes.

01:09:01.680 But to be banned from Twitter because you have a different take than whatever organization is is is fact checking these claims.

01:09:13.180 So it's insane.

01:09:14.060 And so, you know, the Taliban is still OK on Twitter. 0.99

01:09:19.200 There are, you know, a great follow.

01:09:20.900 I mean, that's crazy.

01:09:22.360 You should see their tick tock page.

01:09:23.560 It's great.

01:09:23.920 It's great.

01:09:24.480 It dances they all do in unison.

01:09:25.940 OK, on Thursday, Google took aim at the Gateway Pundit.

01:09:31.420 Now, this is a site conservative ranked top 200 U.S. websites.

01:09:39.160 You may not agree with what they print, but Google has now permanently demonetized them.

01:09:45.840 So, in other words, they've just shut their business down.

01:09:49.680 You can't make any money.

01:09:51.120 So Google demonetizing.

01:09:52.320 I don't know the back end of that as well.

01:09:54.240 But is that basically saying that they they can't hold ads that go through the Google ad?

01:09:59.560 Yes.

01:09:59.860 Servers.

01:10:00.420 Basically.

01:10:00.860 And that's a lot of money.

01:10:01.880 Yeah.

01:10:02.120 That's a lot.

01:10:02.880 A lot of businesses structure their business completely around those.

01:10:06.220 Yeah.

01:10:06.420 That was one reason why we're a subscription service and an ad service, because one of those is going to come to an end.

01:10:14.340 And if apparently people like, you know, Citibank have their way, both of them would come to an end because there is one other.

01:10:26.660 There's one other that really, I think, is the most disturbing.

01:10:30.240 All of these are disturbing.

01:10:31.460 But the third week weekend victim of the purge is the former director of the Defense Intelligence Intelligence Agency and Trump National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

01:10:48.880 Now, Michael Flynn has already been wronged.

01:10:53.200 He already has been cleared of all of the stuff that they said we've it was completely bogus what they said about Michael Flynn, completely bogus.

01:11:04.880 But he just got a account notice from Chase Bank over the weekend.

01:11:12.660 And here's what it reads.

01:11:15.940 After careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on September 18th, 2021, because can listen to this carefully.

01:11:26.640 This is the great reset because continuing the relationship creates possible reputation.

01:11:34.880 Risks to our company.

01:11:38.380 Wait, because General Flynn might be charging a stay at the Holiday Inn Express, that somehow or another is going to risk their reputation of Chase Bank.

01:11:56.440 Just let me remind you, JPMorgan Chase, you know, the one that just wrote almost a billion dollar check.

01:12:04.080 Let me get this right.

01:12:05.080 Let me get this right.

01:12:06.000 Almost wrote a billion dollar check to resolve federal wire fraud charges because the company in a separate criminal scheme defrauded the precious metals and U.S.

01:12:19.480 Treasury markets.

01:12:21.160 That company is worried about doing business with Michael Flynn.

01:12:26.580 Come on.

01:12:30.940 Obviously, in reality, there's no reputational risk to them for having Michael Flynn have a personal credit card.

01:12:37.880 But this is exactly what the Great Reset.

01:12:41.100 Write down that out.

01:12:41.840 Yeah, right down.

01:12:42.640 It says you can't companies cannot do business with other companies that have a low ESG score.

01:12:51.520 Now, while they're not counting on an ESG score yet, they are already doing it.

01:12:56.660 And so you can't if you would have a low ESG score or you're unpopular, you're on the wrong side of whatever the administration.

01:13:06.460 And I mean of the entire this new hybrid of corporate governance and corporate sleeping with the administration and governments all over the world.

01:13:20.820 If they deem that you are not good, then they will cancel you and you won't be able to buy and sell things.

01:13:31.820 Well, there's step number one to General Michael Flynn.

01:13:37.260 Incredible.

01:13:38.740 And this is obviously a massive problem all over the place for mainly conservatives in almost every arena of life.

01:13:46.740 It's coming.

01:13:47.140 One thing we have we should spend more time on, I think, is how to solve these issues.

01:13:52.540 And look, there are some interesting things that people propose through the law.

01:13:56.920 There are some interesting things that people propose about, you know, doing things on their own, starting your own company.

01:14:03.020 All those things are part of the conversation.

01:14:05.820 The part of the conversation that I think has received too little attention from the right is that almost every single one of these problems,

01:14:13.000 when it comes to anything digital, almost every single one of them can be solved in the crypto space.

01:14:20.160 There you can talk about creating your own social network.

01:14:26.220 But again, as we've seen with places like Parler, you started and then, you know, you have all these these overlords that can shut it down.

01:14:34.440 When it comes to the crypto space, it's basically impossible to do this.

01:14:39.360 If you and all these all of these programs, when it comes to finance, when it comes to social media, when it comes to storage of files, when it comes to business loans and business arrangements,

01:14:50.680 all of these things are either already created in the crypto space or are in the process of being created.

01:14:58.640 And they can't be stopped like this.

01:15:01.960 There is no way to stop them like what we're seeing in these stories that happen every day.

01:15:08.720 You can't take away Michael Flynn's credit card.

01:15:11.680 They don't know who's paying for stuff.

01:15:13.080 It's totally a different way of this stuff working, and it works totally outside of the system.

01:15:20.900 And, you know, this is why I'm so, you know, so skeptical of governments and the way they're going to try to crack down on this stuff long term.

01:15:31.120 Oh, yeah.

01:15:31.320 They're going to try.

01:15:32.300 But again, when it comes to actually being able to complete these transactions, complete these posts so they can never be deleted, they can never go away.

01:15:43.580 All of that is already available with cryptocurrency and the not just the currency part of it, but blockchain.

01:15:52.220 And it's all protected and everlasting.

01:15:56.520 And it's a part of this equation that is really important for conservatives to get their minds around because there's going to be time, I think, where these other solutions aren't going to do anything.

01:16:07.820 We can talk about changing the law, but we've seen what happens with the law.

01:16:11.380 We have absolute rights that are violated all the time.

01:16:15.760 All the time.

01:16:15.940 You think some little, you know, communication section adjustment, it may help at some point.

01:16:21.820 I'm not saying it's totally wrong to look at those things.

01:16:25.140 But like long term, real, you know, life and death type of issues, a section 230 tweak is not going to bring us to the promised land, nor is even bringing up your own, building your own company.

01:16:38.840 So let me let me pose an impossible question and and get your answer on it.

01:16:45.900 I know my answer, but it's one that I'm really not comfortable with.

01:16:51.400 But I think it has to be done and I'd love to hear your solution, because it is one that is currently kind of on the the edge of going mainstream.

01:17:03.740 And it's it is just OK, Mr.

01:17:09.580 Constitutionalist, what do you do?

01:17:11.860 And I'll give that to you in just a minute.

01:17:14.020 Stand by.

01:17:16.520 Seemed like a great idea at the time.

01:17:18.400 Yeah, that's the that's the title of the life story of everybody who's ever gotten him or herself in up to their eyeballs in credit card debt.

01:17:28.060 Seemed like a good idea at the time.

01:17:30.500 If those credit cards are still haunting your past and you're probably feeling it in the wallet right now.

01:17:39.120 May I suggest you give American financing a call?

01:17:41.900 Let them see if they can get that debt consolidation with any other debt.

01:17:47.720 That you might have at a lower interest rate.

01:17:50.560 What about a mortgage?

01:17:52.260 Have you considered refinancing it at a lower rate?

01:17:54.580 If if one is available, you could be saving hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as a thousand dollars a month.

01:18:01.140 But you're really not going to know.

01:18:02.340 And you tell you pick up the phone and give American financing an all important call.

01:18:06.500 They're in it for you, not the bank.

01:18:08.300 They've been helping people just like you for over 20 years and they can really help right now.

01:18:13.200 Save you money.

01:18:14.780 American financing.

01:18:15.900 800-906-2440.

01:18:17.720 800-906-2440.

01:18:19.460 Or American financing.net.

01:18:21.260 American financing.

01:18:22.180 NMLS 1-82334.

01:18:24.260 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:18:28.900 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:34.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:38.300 All right, so let me give you an impossible question.

01:18:42.420 Does a company have a right to say no shirts, no shoes, no service?

01:18:50.260 Yes.

01:18:50.980 Do they have a right to say anyone with a blue shirt cannot come in?

01:18:57.320 It'd be a strange business choice, but yes.

01:18:59.540 Yes, they could theoretically do that.

01:19:01.680 Do they have a right to say I'm not making a gay wedding cake? 1.00

01:19:05.960 Yes.

01:19:06.300 Um, do they have a right to say I'm only making gay wedding cakes?

01:19:12.360 Yes.

01:19:13.000 Okay.

01:19:13.840 Do they have a right to say I'm staying open?

01:19:18.120 You can't close me down because of COVID?

01:19:21.640 I would argue yes.

01:19:23.480 Do they have a right to say something's coming?

01:19:26.880 Yeah.

01:19:27.360 Do they have a right to say only vaccine people can come in to our store?

01:19:33.140 Only vaccinated people.

01:19:34.020 Only vaccinated people.

01:19:35.380 Only people who have been vaccinated.

01:19:37.080 I think I would argue yes.

01:19:39.560 Even though I think a lot of the audience would disagree.

01:19:41.620 I think they would too.

01:19:42.820 And I would agree with you that yes, you can't make it.

01:19:46.060 You can't say it's constitutional on one side and not on the other.

01:19:50.200 With this caveat, I have no problem if it's Joe's Deli, you know, Joe's Deli and Jelly Donuts.

01:19:58.580 Okay.

01:19:59.360 I have no problem if that local company wants to say that.

01:20:02.960 I'm having a problem because we no longer have a real true free market when it comes to some of these giant corporations.

01:20:12.640 They are in bed with the government.

01:20:15.180 We know that from social media.

01:20:17.180 They admit it.

01:20:19.040 When you're in bed with the government, you should not be exempt from constitutional underpinnings.

01:20:29.100 You can't violate the First Amendment.

01:20:31.680 We know that Google and Facebook and, you know, and Twitter, they all are in and have said that they're in with the government.

01:20:44.560 Okay.

01:20:45.240 Doing the bidding of the government.

01:20:47.820 Well, that makes you an extension of the government.

01:20:50.280 I'm sorry.

01:20:51.140 We don't.

01:20:51.720 We never thought of it this way.

01:20:53.120 But some of these big corporations, they're wielding so much power now because the government is putting small businesses out of business that I don't give you the same protections that I give the local mom and pop.

01:21:06.680 Because you are you are so connected to the government that you are actually beginning to be part of the government.

01:21:16.680 Yeah, I'm nervous about this on both sides, right?

01:21:18.520 Yeah, I am, too.

01:21:19.200 I am, too.

01:21:19.780 I'm nervous about saying every business we think is important is some public utility and we're going to start regulating it like it's an arm of the government.

01:21:28.800 But I'm also very nervous about what they're doing with this association.

01:21:32.400 And that's why you should not have these giant companies in bed with the government.

01:21:39.960 Correct.

01:21:40.300 This is back when Michael Moore did that terrible movie, Sicko, recently famous for praising the Cuban health care system and how wonderful it was, which didn't really turn out that well.

01:21:52.640 Yeah.

01:21:52.740 But he also made the argument that capitalism, his big argument against capitalism, and maybe this was the next movie he made, but it was this big argument against capitalism, where he said, look at this company.

01:22:06.340 This company's in bed with the government.

01:22:08.360 And look at this company.

01:22:09.860 This company's in bed with the government.

01:22:11.960 And it's like, well, wait a minute.

01:22:13.060 I have that same critique that I have no I don't want the government in bed with any of these companies.

01:22:18.440 That's why I don't like PBS.

01:22:19.720 It's not capitalism.

01:22:20.940 It's the opposite of capitalism.

01:22:23.560 It's the exact opposite.

01:22:26.200 And he was, at the time, criticizing capitalism.

01:22:29.440 But that needs to end.

01:22:31.820 That needs to end in a big way.

01:22:33.820 That's crony capitalism.

01:22:35.240 The government should not be in bed and doing special favors for any company.

01:22:41.100 Period.

01:22:42.140 And until that time, I kind of feel that, you know, forget Section 230.

01:22:48.120 They're part and arm of the government.

01:22:53.300 I think they should be held to constitutional standards.

01:22:58.180 And a lot of these big companies should be held to the same standard.

01:23:02.500 It's the Glenn Beck program.

01:23:04.080 Let me tell you about the zebra.

01:23:06.020 The zebra dot com.

01:23:08.020 Shopping for home or car insurance is complicated.

01:23:12.440 Still, you use the zebra and saved a buttload of money, didn't you?

01:23:16.440 Yeah.

01:23:16.940 The zebra is a great, great service.

01:23:19.900 We overpay on insurance all the time.

01:23:24.020 Car insurance.

01:23:24.860 Home insurance.

01:23:25.460 You don't look at it.

01:23:26.500 You said it once and you forget it.

01:23:28.200 And they keep raising your rates and you never look at the other possibilities ever again.

01:23:32.920 So the zebra dot com pairs people with the insurance company that's right for them.

01:23:36.880 Delivering the quotes with the coverage that they need.

01:23:39.900 It saves the average American nine hundred and twenty two dollars on their home and car insurance combined.

01:23:46.780 A lot.

01:23:47.300 That's a lot.

01:23:48.080 That's the average.

01:23:49.340 Nine hundred and twenty two dollars.

01:23:50.620 All you have to do to find out is just go to the zebra dot com slash back.

01:23:56.180 That's the zebra spelled like the and zebra.

01:24:01.260 You know, if you're too stupid to know how to spell the zebra dot com slash back, you know, you should pay nine hundred and twenty dollars more.

01:24:08.720 The zebra dot com slash back.

01:24:11.800 Go there now and save a lot of money.

01:24:15.180 Final hour of the broadcast coming up next.

01:24:20.620 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:49.520 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:24:59.080 On Saturday, on the broadcast of MSNBC's VELCHE, which who knew that was even a show on the air?

01:25:07.240 Even a word, really.

01:25:08.300 Elon Omar said she was surprised that President Joe Biden is not allowing the pressure that's being mounted in the media and in Washington to derail the mission that he set forth in Afghanistan.

01:25:20.860 The level of evacuation that he and his administration has done and been able to undertake is really inspiring.

01:25:27.560 Well, I guess if you're an enemy of the country, it would be inspiring.

01:25:33.640 Did I say that out loud?

01:25:34.700 That was just my gosh, that was wrong.

01:25:38.540 I would apologize.

01:25:40.060 Maybe I'll save the apology for tomorrow.

01:25:42.600 Today, we'll just let it stand.

01:25:44.560 What do you say?

01:25:45.560 One hour left of the broadcast.

01:25:47.660 What else is left to say?

01:25:49.300 Oh, a lot.

01:25:51.240 In 60 seconds.

01:25:55.460 The Glenn Beck program.

01:25:57.820 Last week, Double Line Capital founder Jeff Gunlock paved the roadmap for the U.S. dollar losing its reserve currency status.

01:26:07.860 It's not a matter of if.

01:26:09.980 It is a matter of when.

01:26:12.380 So how do you prepare for such a drastic change?

01:26:16.600 By the way, this has happened before in American history.

01:26:18.680 This is like, oh, it'll never happen.

01:26:20.160 It's happened like three or four times before.

01:26:22.700 Last time it happened was when we got the green back.

01:26:25.500 And what happens to the people who have been saving their money is this.

01:26:29.360 You get about a 60% haircut on whatever you have.

01:26:35.460 So you have $100 in the bank.

01:26:37.480 Congratulations.

01:26:38.000 You can turn it in for the new currency at the fantastic price of $60.

01:26:45.180 And congratulations on that.

01:26:47.540 And you really have nowhere to go.

01:26:49.160 That is what is coming.

01:26:51.740 Gold and silver.

01:26:52.940 Gunlock said, we seem to be taking a lot of things for granted these days.

01:26:56.700 We're setting the stage to experience the consequences of our actions.

01:27:00.880 We've been running a non-serious economic program since 1908, but it has accelerated so much in the past decade.

01:27:09.360 The time for waiting is over.

01:27:12.040 This week only.

01:27:13.640 With the purchase of a tube of $5 gold Indian coins, you're going to receive the famed 2-ounce silver maple flex bar at no cost.

01:27:22.040 And one of Goldline's new branded one-out silver bars at no cost as well.

01:27:28.420 At this point, you really shouldn't need the encouragement to look at your finances and see, should I have some gold and silver?

01:27:38.820 The answer, at least for my family, is a yes.

01:27:42.860 Call 866-GOLD-LINE, 866-GOLD-LINE, or goldline.com.

01:27:54.260 Welcome to the program.

01:28:03.740 The Taliban is growing more violent, adding checkpoints nearing the airport.

01:28:10.200 This is, um...

01:28:12.860 This is according to the people who are on the ground.

01:28:14.860 An all-volunteer group of American veterans of the Afghan war launched a final mission on Wednesday night, dubbed the Pineapple Express.

01:28:26.260 They took and shepherded hundreds of at-risk Afghans, the elite forces, and their families to safety.

01:28:35.320 Moving after nightfall in near-pitch-black darkness, according to ABC, and extremely dangerous conditions, the group said it worked unofficially, unofficially, in tandem with the United States military and U.S. Embassy to move people, sometimes one person at a time or in pairs, but rarely more than a small bunch.

01:28:58.880 They moved them inside of the wire of the U.S. military-controlled side of Karzai International Airport.

01:29:06.180 You know, by the way, Karzai International Airport, can we change that name?

01:29:09.240 Because, you know, when you get a baggage tag, it says KIA, probably not the best luggage tag for the Afghanistan airport.

01:29:22.880 Maybe it's just me.

01:29:24.360 There were wounded among the Pineapple Express travelers from BLAST.

01:29:28.640 The members of the group said they were assessing whether unaccounted for Afghans they were helping had been killed.

01:29:35.200 We're pretty sure that some of the Afghans that we were helping were killed.

01:29:46.600 As of Thursday morning, the group said it had brought as many as 500 Afghan special operators, assets, and enablers and their families into the airport overnight, handing them over to the protective custody of the U.S. military.

01:30:02.520 There are a lot of people that are going in and doing what they can, and I would just, if you know somebody who is over in Afghanistan, because we are getting so many requests, please tell them.

01:30:28.620 As this group just said, you've got to move in ones, maybe twos, but never as a group.

01:30:38.400 And the Taliban and ISIS are tracking phones, they are tracking people, they are also looking to websites and to Instagram and Facebook pages like the Nazarene Fund, like the Mighty Oaks Foundation.

01:30:58.760 And they are tracking them, and they are hunting for them actively.

01:31:07.260 So please, if you know someone, tell them, please go to a secure location.

01:31:14.340 Gosh, I almost said something I wasn't supposed to.

01:31:19.780 Go to a secure location.

01:31:21.160 You're going to have to figure that out on your own.

01:31:24.880 The world has not forgotten about you, but turn off your cell phone.

01:31:31.460 Also, highly recommended that when they are talking to people, that they give everyone that they trust a password.

01:31:40.400 And when you do turn on your phone, if you get a phone call or a text message, that it includes that password.

01:31:51.400 Otherwise, do not tell anyone what's going on.

01:31:57.180 Please pass that to anybody you know that is over there.

01:32:01.320 President Biden says there's only 240 people left that need to get out, 240 Americans.

01:32:07.120 I believe that.

01:32:09.660 Bullcrap.

01:32:10.640 I believe that entirely.

01:32:15.040 You know, I thought of something the other day while I was over in the Middle East, and I thought,

01:32:23.120 I got so much heat for this as a theme.

01:32:28.000 So much heat.

01:32:28.860 People hated it.

01:32:30.640 And, you know, it amazes me because we're always, my timing is always wrong.

01:32:34.580 My timing is always wrong.

01:32:38.660 I seem to be just a little too far ahead.

01:32:41.920 Roger Ailes said to me, oh, you're leading the parade all right, but you're leading it about five blocks ahead of the actual parade.

01:32:49.920 Uh, and, uh, I was like, oh, okay.

01:32:54.600 But I think that is true because I want to play something that we made about five years ago and, and played it quite often.

01:33:05.380 And I thought of it this weekend because this is exactly what we need.

01:33:12.680 And this is exactly what is happening right now in Afghanistan.

01:33:18.040 People who don't necessarily agree.

01:33:20.640 People that, you know, should be, I guess, in some way in competition with each other.

01:33:26.540 Nobody cares.

01:33:27.800 They're all just standing together.

01:33:29.620 And getting the job done.

01:33:33.500 And it reminded me of this.

01:33:35.180 I know we don't see everything in the same way.

01:34:01.120 But I know we won't be really free if we don't stay.

01:34:10.120 United, cause divided, we will fall for anything is true. 0.52

01:34:18.800 So I have decided I will stand for you and I will.

01:34:27.800 I will make a stand.

01:34:30.020 I will raise my voice.

01:34:32.260 I will hold your hand.

01:34:34.700 Cause we are one.

01:34:36.500 I will beat my drum.

01:34:38.740 I have made my choice.

01:34:40.980 We will overcome.

01:34:43.320 Cause we are one.

01:34:48.800 Some say there's no way.

01:34:57.800 Your way will ever be okay.

01:35:02.800 They say the best days are behind.

01:35:08.000 So rewind and you will find.

01:35:10.920 The times were the best man.

01:35:15.920 The friend of a friend, they've become two men.

01:35:19.920 But now there's nowhere where you can speak your mind.

01:35:26.920 But I will.

01:35:27.920 I will make a stand.

01:35:29.920 I will raise my voice.

01:35:32.920 I will hold your hand.

01:35:34.920 Cause we are one.

01:35:36.920 I will beat my drum.

01:35:38.920 I have made my choice.

01:35:40.920 We will overcome.

01:35:43.920 Cause we are one.

01:35:45.920 I will make a stand.

01:35:47.920 I will raise my voice.

01:35:49.920 I will hold your hand.

01:35:51.920 Cause we are one.

01:35:53.920 I will beat my drum.

01:35:55.920 I will beat my drum.

01:35:56.920 I have made my choice.

01:35:58.920 We will overcome.

01:36:00.920 Cause we are one.

01:36:02.920 Times may change.

01:36:04.920 But truth remains.

01:36:06.920 We won't be silenced.

01:36:08.920 Won't be changed.

01:36:10.920 Cause injustice anywhere.

01:36:14.920 There is justice everywhere.

01:36:15.920 There is justice everywhere.

01:36:17.920 There is justice everywhere.

01:36:19.920 I will make a stand.

01:36:22.920 I will raise my voice.

01:36:24.920 I will hold your hand.

01:36:26.920 Cause we are one.

01:36:28.920 I will beat my drum.

01:36:31.920 I have made my choice.

01:36:33.920 We will overcome.

01:36:35.920 Cause we are one.

01:36:37.920 I will make a stand.

01:36:39.920 I will raise my voice.

01:36:41.920 I will hold your hand.

01:36:44.920 Cause we are one.

01:36:46.920 I will beat my drum.

01:36:48.920 I have made my choice.

01:36:50.920 We will overcome.

01:36:52.920 Cause we are one.

01:36:56.920 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:36:57.920 That was our theme about five years ago.

01:37:00.920 Uh, and didn't make sense to a lot of people.

01:37:03.920 I, I think it probably does today.

01:37:07.920 We have to come together.

01:37:09.920 I don't care who you voted for.

01:37:13.920 Do you know that we left 22,000 Humvees behind?

01:37:17.920 We didn't blow them up.

01:37:19.920 The Taliban now has 22,174 Humvees,

01:37:24.920 634 M1 117s, 0.96

01:37:28.920 155 mine proof vehicles,

01:37:32.920 169 armored personnel carriers,

01:37:36.920 42,000 trucks and SUVs,

01:37:39.920 64,363 machine guns,

01:37:44.920 176 major artillery pieces,

01:37:48.920 126,000 pistols,

01:37:51.920 358,530 assault rifles,

01:37:55.920 16,035 night vision goggles

01:38:00.920 that you can't even buy as an American citizen.

01:38:03.920 162,000 radios,

01:38:06.920 8,000 military trucks,

01:38:09.920 33, uh, M17 helicopters,

01:38:14.920 33 UH 60 Blackhawks.

01:38:19.920 We left 33 Blackhawks.

01:38:25.920 We left four C-130 transports.

01:38:31.920 This is an impeachable offense.

01:38:35.920 This is something that even if you don't want to go as far as impeaching someone,

01:38:41.920 which I think this is,

01:38:43.920 you have to agree that this is wild incompetence and has made the,

01:38:50.920 the American people and the people of the world in,

01:38:56.920 in, in we've left them in a very dangerous situation.

01:39:01.920 So what can you do?

01:39:03.920 What can you do?

01:39:05.920 I would ask that the number one thing that you have to do is purge yourself of the anger,

01:39:14.920 purge yourself of that,

01:39:16.920 do everything you can.

01:39:17.920 And the best way to do that is serving others.

01:39:20.920 Right now, we are, um, looking at New Orleans,

01:39:25.920 million people out of, uh, out of electricity.

01:39:30.920 There are people that, you know, need help and FEMA is going in,

01:39:34.920 but quite honestly, I don't want people reliant on the government.

01:39:39.920 We have to help our own neighbors.

01:39:41.920 If you want to do that, you can, you can, uh, give to whomever you think is the best.

01:39:47.920 Mercury one always has people on the ground.

01:39:49.920 You can donate at Mercury one.

01:39:52.920 You can donate it to the, um, Nazarene fund.

01:39:57.920 If you find another group of people that you find more honorable or just fit your worldview or whatever,

01:40:04.920 donate to them.

01:40:05.920 Quentin Tarantino, I understand was trying to, uh, finance a plane or two to get out of Afghanistan.

01:40:12.920 Don't know if he did, but if he did, congratulations, I'm glad you did it.

01:40:17.920 We all have to put our differences aside and we all have to come together.

01:40:25.920 I want to take a phone call from Sean in just a second.

01:40:27.920 He heard us talk about something and he said, I am taking a stand today.

01:40:32.920 What can you do?

01:40:35.920 Well, listen to Sean, maybe perhaps this is what you can do in 60 seconds.

01:40:41.920 First, let me tell you about car shield.

01:40:43.920 There is lots of ways to waste money.

01:40:45.920 Uh, you could invest in a new wind farm, invest in the U S dollar.

01:40:49.920 That would be great.

01:40:50.920 You could literally open the window and throw cash out into the wind.

01:40:54.920 And of course there's a granddaddy of them all.

01:40:56.920 You could let your car's warranty lapse and then pay for uncovered repairs because all of the really expensive uncovered repairs happen after the warranty runs out.

01:41:07.920 That's why getting a coverage from car shield is so important.

01:41:11.920 I have, I've probably saved maybe $10,000 over the last five years or so just on my trucks.

01:41:19.920 I've got old trucks that don't have warranties and I use them and they run hard.

01:41:24.920 And I probably saved 10 grand in repairs because I had car shield.

01:41:28.920 Car shield is a win win.

01:41:30.920 They'll get you back on track when you're in a pinch and you're not on the hook to pay thousands of dollars.

01:41:36.920 Get the coverage today and see why my trucks, my cars that have car shield coverage go further.

01:41:44.920 Visit carshield.com slash back and save 10% right now.

01:41:48.920 Carshield.com slash back deductible may apply.

01:41:51.920 10 seconds station ID.

01:41:54.920 Let me go to Sean.

01:42:06.920 Hello, Sean.

01:42:07.920 Welcome to the program.

01:42:08.920 Hey, Glenn.

01:42:09.920 Thanks for having me.

01:42:10.920 You bet.

01:42:11.920 You bet.

01:42:12.920 So I am.

01:42:13.920 Yeah, we've been listening to your story about General Michael Flynn and what Chase Bank has done to him.

01:42:19.920 And, you know, I called my wife immediately.

01:42:20.920 Just got off the phone with her a few minutes ago and then called you.

01:42:23.920 I said, we've got to be done with this organization.

01:42:26.920 We're both veterans.

01:42:27.920 Between us, we've got about 21 years of the military.

01:42:29.920 I've got two combat deployments, Afghanistan and Iraq.

01:42:32.920 I don't care what you think about Michael Flynn, who has been cleared of everything, by the way.

01:42:37.920 But we don't have that trip like this.

01:42:39.920 And so we're done.

01:42:41.920 So we have a $25,000 line of credit is gone.

01:42:44.920 Did you tell them?

01:42:45.920 Did you tell them?

01:42:47.920 Did you tell them why?

01:42:49.920 Oh, we are.

01:42:50.920 Oh, we're going to send them the exact same letter that they sent to Michael Flynn.

01:42:53.920 Good, good, good.

01:42:54.920 And we're going to remind them that their reputation suffers because of the billion dollars they just had to pay.

01:42:58.920 And not because of anybody like Michael Flynn, who's a hero, by the way.

01:43:01.920 So we've also we're going through refinance with Veterans United, who's a great organization.

01:43:05.920 But my wife just hit them up, just sent a letter to them immediately and said, hey, we want to make sure you never do business with Chase Bank, because this is not something that a veterans organization should be affiliated with.

01:43:14.920 Good for you.

01:43:15.920 And we're waiting to hear back and we're going to see what they do.

01:43:18.920 Would you let me know when you hear back from them?

01:43:21.920 If you hear.

01:43:22.920 Yeah, absolutely.

01:43:23.920 I will.

01:43:24.920 Yeah.

01:43:25.920 Yeah, I absolutely will.

01:43:26.920 We'll probably hear back from them today.

01:43:27.920 But yeah, I just want to inspire everybody out there.

01:43:29.920 It just takes five minutes to go do business with somebody that supports our veterans, that isn't part of the great reset, that doesn't invest in cancel culture, because this is the powers with us.

01:43:39.920 So let's do this.

01:43:40.920 It is.

01:43:41.920 Thank you very much, Sean.

01:43:42.920 I appreciate it.

01:43:43.920 In case you don't know what happened over the weekend, Michael Flynn, the former Defense Intelligence Agency director, was canceled by Chase Bank.

01:43:56.920 They notified him, quote, after careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on September 18th, 2021, because of continuing the reputation.

01:44:08.920 I'm sorry, because of continuing the relationship will create possible reputational risks for our country.

01:44:16.920 I'm sorry, for our company.

01:44:18.920 I don't know.

01:44:19.920 Am I drinking again?

01:44:21.920 This is Chase Bank.

01:44:22.920 This is Chase Bank.

01:44:24.920 JPMorgan Chase.

01:44:26.920 Do you have investments with JPMorgan?

01:44:29.920 Do you have money in Chase?

01:44:32.920 May I highly recommend you start doing business with a local bank?

01:44:41.920 I have everything in local banks, ones that are not tied to anything, not tied to other big banks.

01:44:51.920 Do your business with a local bank, please.

01:44:58.920 These people have been under attack since 2008 and they are going to come under attack because these are all the Fed banks that are left.

01:45:07.920 Do business with your local bank.

01:45:12.920 If you find it offensive that a guy, Michael Flynn, who has served his country, you don't have to agree with him, but he's not guilty of anything.

01:45:22.920 That was those were all I hate to use the expression trumped up charges against him.

01:45:28.920 Those were all false charges.

01:45:31.920 It was corruption that they that allowed them to charge those things.

01:45:38.920 And and he wasn't convicted of anything.

01:45:43.920 What do you say?

01:45:44.920 What do you say?

01:45:45.920 Chase Bank, how is he going to hurt you by using your credit card?

01:45:51.920 I suggest you get your money out of Chase today.

01:45:56.920 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:45:59.920 All right.

01:46:02.920 Let me tell you about Rectech.

01:46:04.920 I love eating food.

01:46:05.920 I love eating food really in any condition.

01:46:08.920 Not a fan of raw, but I'll eat it if I have to.

01:46:12.920 Rectech is my favorite kind of food all year round.

01:46:17.920 You can grill.

01:46:18.920 You can smoke.

01:46:20.920 You can bake on a Rectech grill because everything turns out because they have this high tech monitoring system.

01:46:32.920 It is really, really great.

01:46:35.920 It does everything.

01:46:36.920 It is smart grill technology.

01:46:38.920 And so you can start your grill, start cooking, monitoring your cooking on an app on your iPhone.

01:46:44.920 And you don't even have to be at home.

01:46:46.920 You come home when it's dinner time.

01:46:49.920 Rectech.

01:47:19.920 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:47:29.920 There is some question on the Michael Flynn story.

01:47:33.920 And I want to give you the source and and exactly what is being said by General Michael Flynn and by Citibank.

01:47:45.920 So just the news is the our chase.

01:47:49.920 Sorry, not Citibank.

01:47:50.920 Chase Chase Bank.

01:47:52.920 Just the news is the source of this particular story along with social media and particularly General Flynn's social media account.

01:48:06.920 Just the news, if if I may say, and you you it's the New York Times of the right.

01:48:15.920 And that's not necessarily a compliment.

01:48:18.920 If you look at it, I just think it's it's the it's one of the most credible journalistic sites out there for the right.

01:48:28.920 Right. And we've talked to John Solomon many times.

01:48:30.920 He's the guy behind it.

01:48:31.920 He is, you know, there's a very long history in the world winning journalist mainstream journalism.

01:48:37.920 OK, so it's really good.

01:48:39.920 So there's a story here that with national attention riveted over the weekend on two major stories with the frantic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan amid the fall of the Taliban category for Hurricane Ida slamming in the Louisiana coast.

01:48:51.920 Big tech and woke finance dramatically extended their reach of cancel cancel culture with brazen moves to silence and harass three profile high profile voices of political and scientific dissent.

01:49:04.920 Now, this is the way it happens when the world is busy.

01:49:09.920 That's when things change.

01:49:11.920 Ask the people of Hong Kong.

01:49:14.920 So on Saturday, according to just the news, Twitter permanently banned Alex Berenson, who has built a large social media following challenging public health establishment orthodoxy on covid issues ranging from lockdown to vaccine mandates.

01:49:32.920 This is one of the most important things of our lifetimes.

01:49:37.920 And anyone who tries to shut down debate on what's really going on is is not only un-American, but a member of the dark ages church. 0.67

01:49:52.920 They have just replaced the dark ages church that says anyone who disagrees with us is a heretic.

01:50:01.920 That is not American. 0.86

01:50:03.920 That's not 21st century thinking by any stretch of the imagination.

01:50:09.920 So they they said that he had posted some things that Twitter was part of their Twitter ban.

01:50:18.920 In fact, they said to Fox News, the account you referenced has been permanently suspended for repeated violations of our covid 19 misinformation rules.

01:50:29.920 Well, this is the tweet that did it.

01:50:34.920 He said the covid vaccine doesn't stop infection or transmission.

01:50:39.920 Don't think of it as a vaccine.

01:50:41.920 Think of it at best as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed in advance of illness.

01:50:54.920 And we want to make a mandate for it insanity.

01:50:59.920 OK, apparently you can't say that on Twitter without getting a lifetime ban.

01:51:04.920 Then Google shut down all of its ad services and Google is the largest advertising house now in the world.

01:51:15.920 In the world, there is no one that does more advertisement placement than Google.

01:51:21.920 Well, they just took and said no more advertisement for Gateway Pundit.

01:51:26.920 All righty, that will put Gateway Pundit out of business.

01:51:32.920 Most likely you you can't just shut down the the pipes of money overnight.

01:51:39.920 And then the last victim was former National Security Advisor and director of the National Intelligence Agency during the Obama administration.

01:51:51.920 Michael Flynn, he posted to his Telegram account a notice from Chase Bank notifying him of the cancellation of his credit cards.

01:52:01.920 Quote, after careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on September 18th, 2021, because continuing the relationship creates possible reputational risks to our company.

01:52:16.920 Our company. Chase, according to Flynn, in his reply, has gone full blown woke and quote, quoting, they need to deal with their own reputation instead of persecuting my family and I and quote.

01:52:33.920 Flynn said, alluding to JP Morgan's agreement to pay nine hundred and twenty million dollars to resolve federal wire fraud charges against the company for its role in separate separate criminal schemes to defraud the precious metals and U.S. Treasuries market.

01:52:51.040 I don't know. Paying almost a billion dollars in fines for screwing with the Treasuries market seems like a big deal.

01:52:59.820 Michael Flynn wrote, Michael Flynn wrote, DOJ dropped my case for their own egregious government misconduct.

01:53:08.020 It appears you weren't that lucky with the DOJ.

01:53:11.680 I guess my America first political views don't align with yours.

01:53:16.600 End quote.

01:53:18.080 Now, the blaze pointed out.

01:53:20.600 That if you look at the document from Chase Bank, it it blacks out the first name.

01:53:31.440 Of who the letter is going to, and they didn't do a good job because you can see, I think, the last letter, which is not the last letter of his first name, not the last letter of his middle name.

01:53:44.580 And we are thinking that this is his brother.

01:53:48.140 And that's why he said, you're messing with me and my family.

01:53:52.860 But I don't think this makes this any better.

01:53:55.920 Yeah, no.

01:53:56.940 Unless Michael Flynn's brother is like an axe murderer.

01:54:01.440 Is he not that I know of?

01:54:03.820 All right.

01:54:04.580 OK, I've not looked at I have not.

01:54:06.720 I don't know.

01:54:07.580 I don't know.

01:54:08.360 I don't think so.

01:54:09.540 I feel like we would have heard about that one.

01:54:10.960 You know, you know, in today's world, anything's possible.

01:54:16.200 Anything, anything is possible.

01:54:17.760 And that's the problem with smears like this.

01:54:21.340 A lot of people just say, I don't know.

01:54:23.940 And I guess he deserved it.

01:54:26.220 Yeah.

01:54:26.340 I mean, the claim is coming from the Flynn family, from Michael Flynn himself, apparently.

01:54:30.020 So, I mean, I think it's appropriate to to report on what he's saying is happening to him and showing him as well.

01:54:37.260 And showing the the actual cancellation.

01:54:41.300 But again, like I, you know, I can look at I can go on Twitter right now and look at Alex, Alex Berenson's account and it is not there.

01:54:48.580 So, you know, this is not it's a it's a you can look at any one of these individual things and it's important to make sure we get all these stories straight.

01:54:56.200 But so many of these things are happening to conservatives all the time that you want.

01:55:01.440 And I don't know that honestly, I don't even I don't know at all that Alex Berenson would even call himself a conservative.

01:55:06.580 I mean, I think through covid he's been on on Fox News a lot.

01:55:11.240 And anybody who disagrees Times reporter at one point, anybody now who disagrees, they can be a libertarian.

01:55:17.880 They can be a left leaning libertarian.

01:55:20.920 They can even be you could be a guy who's building spaceships to go to outer space because you're so scared of climate change.

01:55:27.760 But when you say something bad about covid, you wind up getting in trouble, too, even if you're the richest person or maybe the third richest person on Earth, Tesla stock has dropped a little bit.

01:55:38.400 But the point is, like, you could be Elon Musk, a guy who is so ideologically committed to catastrophic global warming that he's building spaceships to escape it.

01:55:50.220 And even that is not enough for the left.

01:55:53.200 If you're critical of one narrative, you're the enemy.

01:55:56.440 By the way, can I change this subject dramatically?

01:55:59.500 You can.

01:56:00.540 A friend of mine came over.

01:56:02.480 This has been we haven't seen each other in a week.

01:56:04.700 Yeah.

01:56:04.900 And so before I left for the Middle East, a friend came over and said, I just got the new Tesla plaid.

01:56:11.180 Oh, the plaid.

01:56:12.160 OK.

01:56:12.620 Yeah.

01:56:13.060 I didn't even know the plaid.

01:56:14.280 I didn't.

01:56:14.660 I knew that there was a setting ludicrous setting.

01:56:17.120 Yes.

01:56:17.760 Well, if you remember Spaceballs, which all of their right, all of their settings seem to reflect, it was ludicrous speed.

01:56:24.660 And then it went eventually went to plaid.

01:56:27.300 So plaid would be the fastest in the movie Spaceballs.

01:56:30.460 Have you been in a plaid?

01:56:32.700 I have not.

01:56:33.260 I've watched videos on the plaid.

01:56:36.360 OK.

01:56:37.380 OK.

01:56:37.960 I'll have to give you the video of me.

01:56:39.600 He said, you got to videotape yourself.

01:56:41.560 I had no idea.

01:56:43.100 I've been in a Tesla before.

01:56:44.720 Yes.

01:56:44.920 You know, and I floored a Tesla before.

01:56:47.260 And they're fast.

01:56:47.880 They're fast.

01:56:48.440 They're not like the plaid.

01:56:49.940 Have you?

01:56:50.500 You haven't been in.

01:56:51.260 I have not been in a plaid.

01:56:52.320 OK.

01:56:52.660 It is insane.

01:56:55.200 It's beyond ludicrous.

01:56:56.740 OK.

01:56:57.480 It you put it into plaid mode.

01:56:59.780 You stop.

01:57:00.800 You put it into ludicrous and then you hit the plaid launch and it counts down.

01:57:06.780 And he's like, are you ready?

01:57:08.460 Now, I've been in a Tesla.

01:57:09.700 So I was like, yeah, I'm ready.

01:57:11.740 No, I wasn't ready.

01:57:12.840 It's 1.8 seconds.

01:57:16.060 You're at 60 miles an hour.

01:57:17.560 1.8.

01:57:18.640 It's the fastest production car ever built.

01:57:21.180 The only one that rivals it is the Bugatti.

01:57:23.680 I don't think the Bugatti does 1.8 seconds.

01:57:25.760 Zero to 60.

01:57:26.560 Rivals it.

01:57:27.340 Rival.

01:57:27.760 Anyone that gets close is the Bugatti.

01:57:30.380 This thing, I'm telling you, I think I punctured maybe my liver as it slammed into my spine as it took off.

01:57:40.000 I've never felt anything.

01:57:41.960 Yes, I have.

01:57:42.580 Yes, I have.

01:57:43.240 The closest I have felt to the Tesla plaid is being launched in an airplane off of an aircraft carrier.

01:57:52.580 And that pulls like six or eight G's.

01:57:55.860 OK.

01:57:56.100 Space shuttle is, I think, nine.

01:57:57.880 And I've been launched off an aircraft.

01:58:00.920 That's the only thing that gets close to that.

01:58:03.820 It's insanity.

01:58:05.940 It's insanity.

01:58:06.940 It really is.

01:58:07.660 I think people who, you know, I think conservatives look at these cars and say electric cars and you kind of roll your eyes.

01:58:15.360 I hate them.

01:58:15.880 I hate them because they're annoying and environmentalists are annoying.

01:58:19.060 All true.

01:58:20.500 However, these cars are.

01:58:23.380 It's just impossible to make a car with a combustion engine that goes as fast as these cars because they have the power on demand whenever they want it.

01:58:32.220 Yeah.

01:58:32.340 I don't know what you would ever use it for except like bank robberies.

01:58:36.940 But to blow away a Bugatti.

01:58:39.120 That would be a fun use of it.

01:58:40.920 They have, I mean, I watched, I watched Back to the Future 2.

01:58:47.420 No good comes from racing at a stoplight.

01:58:50.940 No good.

01:58:51.760 You could crash into an old person in a Rolls Royce pulling out. 0.99

01:58:54.660 And it would be very bad.

01:58:56.040 Your whole career would be wrecked.

01:58:57.540 The document, that documentary set a lot of people's future.

01:58:59.980 It really did.

01:59:00.740 But really, because we took the one that came that we test drove a few years ago was, I think, zero to 60 in 2.8 seconds.

01:59:07.700 And it felt unlike anything I've ever been in.

01:59:10.600 And I've been in some, you know, cars that are pretty fast.

01:59:12.620 I'm going to ask my friend to give you a ride in the Plaid.

01:59:15.100 Yes.

01:59:15.780 I love that.

01:59:16.300 I don't like roller coasters.

01:59:19.160 So I hear these new roller coasters, like Disney has the roller coasters that, you know, are maglev.

01:59:26.140 Oh, yeah.

01:59:26.720 Well, yeah.

01:59:27.540 Yeah.

01:59:27.820 And it's the same kind of experience.

01:59:30.360 I've never experienced anything like it.

01:59:32.500 I've never been on one of those.

01:59:34.140 So this is, I mean, I've, it is a rocket ship.

01:59:37.560 Yeah.

01:59:37.800 It's a rocket ship with no pause in acceleration.

01:59:41.480 No time for your organs to settle back down.

01:59:44.280 Now, to get to top speeds, you know, other Bugattis can beat the Plaid. 0.99

01:59:48.900 But zero to 60, nothing, nothing ever built can beat it.

01:59:51.640 It's crazy.

01:59:52.780 How much are they?

01:59:54.140 That one, I think, is like $130,000.

01:59:57.260 Still, that's crazy.

01:59:58.300 For that performance.

01:59:59.540 Now, the Bugatti is like $2 million.

02:00:02.200 $2 million.

02:00:02.540 Yeah, it's true.

02:00:03.980 Anything that can compete with it is up at that level.

02:00:06.360 By the way, Glenn, we're now, like, pushing the limits of what humans can take.

02:00:12.260 You said zero to 1.8.

02:00:14.160 Yeah.

02:00:14.560 Which I've heard 1.8 to 2.0 for the Plaid.

02:00:17.780 But really fast.

02:00:19.560 And it's almost jarring to the part of you, like, uncomfortable jarring.

02:00:22.980 Oh, no.

02:00:23.260 It was very uncomfortable.

02:00:24.400 It's disorienting.

02:00:25.420 They have a roller coaster in Japan that they built.

02:00:29.500 It was the fastest one ever built with this technology.

02:00:32.380 You know, it just, like, launches you.

02:00:34.580 And it was zero, I think, if I remember right, zero to 150 miles an hour in, like, 1.8 seconds

02:00:42.940 or something insane.

02:00:44.260 And they've had to close it down because people were breaking their backs and necks on the roller coaster.

02:00:49.460 Oh, you're, I mean, I've been launched to, you have to actually kind of, you know,

02:00:54.020 when you're on an aircraft carrier, they say, grunt, you know what I mean?

02:00:58.680 And get all the blood into your head and tighten everything and push your feet against the floor.

02:01:04.160 And you do.

02:01:05.360 You need to do that with a Tesla.

02:01:07.260 Just a little bit.

02:01:08.160 Not as much, but just a little bit.

02:01:10.700 Just a little bit.

02:01:12.660 All right.

02:01:12.940 Let me tell you about, let me tell you about relief factor.

02:01:16.240 Does it seem sometimes like you just have to drag yourself out of bed in the morning just to face the day

02:01:21.120 because you're going to be in a lot of pain no matter what you're doing?

02:01:24.420 If so, I can relate.

02:01:26.060 I know what it feels like to have just a little bit of dread on how bad the day's likely to be

02:01:31.780 because you're going to be hurting for everything you do.

02:01:34.620 I also know, thank God, what it's like to get out of that pain.

02:01:40.140 I know you're skeptical.

02:01:42.100 I was.

02:01:42.780 It's normal to be skeptical, especially something that says that they can get you out of the pain

02:01:46.920 that you're in.

02:01:48.200 Believe me, I was exactly the same way.

02:01:51.560 It's not a drug.

02:01:52.680 Yeah, well, there's reason number one is not going to work.

02:01:54.900 I mean, because drugs don't get me out of pain.

02:01:57.100 They just make me not care as much.

02:01:58.620 Oh, I'm on fire.

02:02:00.180 That's not a good place to be either.

02:02:02.620 Seventy percent of the people who try relief factor go on to borrow to buy more.

02:02:07.340 And I'm telling you now, try their three week quick start.

02:02:11.560 If you don't, if it's not working for you in three weeks, it's probably not going to work for you.

02:02:17.060 Seventy percent of the people who try it with that understanding, go on to order more.

02:02:22.260 Relieffactor dot com.

02:02:23.680 Call 800-500-8384.

02:02:26.340 Get your life back.

02:02:27.400 Just try it.

02:02:28.680 Relieffactor dot com.

02:02:30.100 800-500-8384.

02:02:34.040 888-727-BECK.

02:02:39.600 This is the Glenn Beck program.

02:02:43.880 We're glad you're here.

02:02:44.500 By the way, 538's presidential approval tracker.

02:02:49.020 Not good.

02:02:50.280 Well, for Biden, it's not good.

02:02:52.300 I'm glad people are waking up.

02:02:53.940 Yeah, me too.

02:02:54.880 Me too.

02:02:55.280 There is some hope here because you get sometimes locked in.

02:02:57.700 At least I do.

02:02:58.380 I get locked into this idea that, you know, no one can change their mind and no one's looking at what's really happening.

02:03:04.060 10 points.

02:03:04.880 Yeah, it's a big change.

02:03:05.780 Big change.

02:03:06.200 And especially as 538 points out, especially in a time when nobody's changing their mind, where everything is kind of locked in.

02:03:13.540 Could we do we have time to play Bill Maher?

02:03:15.400 I want to leave you with this.

02:03:16.600 Here's Bill Maher over the weekend.

02:03:17.940 Watching the s*** go down in Afghanistan, I was reminded lately of every conversation I've ever had with an immigrant, almost all of which, if we got to really talking, included the notion, oh, you people have no idea. 1.00

02:03:32.500 All you do is s*** about and badmouth your own country.

02:03:36.740 But if you knew about the country I came from, you'd stop s***ing on your own.

02:03:41.820 We're not the bad guys.

02:03:43.640 Oppression is what we were trying to stop in Afghanistan.

02:03:47.140 We failed.

02:03:48.260 But any immigrant will tell you we've largely succeeded here.

02:03:52.300 And yet the overriding thrust of current woke ideology is that America is rotten to the core, irredeemably racist from the moment it was founded, and so oppressive, sexist, and homophobic, we can't find a host for the Oscars or Jeopardy.
