00:02:33.900 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:39.220 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:42.660 I love how lazy our production crew got this season.
00:02:49.000 We need a Christmas theme.
00:02:50.280 They take the same thing, but just put jingle bells behind it.
00:02:53.280 Yeah, we've kind of given up a little bit.
00:02:55.740 It's been a long year.
00:02:56.820 Give us a break.
00:02:57.900 Welcome to the program.
00:02:59.500 It is Tuesday.
00:03:00.640 My name is Glenn Beck.
00:03:01.680 Stu is with me today.
00:03:03.300 We are going to start with the death of freedom and the birth of a new freedom.
00:03:09.680 We're going to start there.
00:03:10.820 Also, yesterday, we talked about Donald Trump wants to get rid of daylight savings time.
00:03:17.840 Yeah, I agree with him on this completely.
00:03:20.140 And I was against it yesterday.
00:03:22.040 Yeah.
00:03:22.800 Because I always thought it had something to do with farming.
00:03:26.000 No, it has nothing to do with it.
00:03:28.320 Really?
00:03:28.620 I will not believe it started as a joke until Wilson, Woodrow Wilson.
00:03:34.640 I'll give you that story.
00:03:36.060 Of course.
00:03:36.620 Coming up on today's podcast.
00:03:38.180 All right.
00:03:38.580 Let me tell you first about SimpliSafe.
00:03:40.800 You know the things sometimes that go bump in the night?
00:03:43.600 Well, sometimes things go bump in the day.
00:03:46.800 Whether we're at home or not, in either case, advances in technology have seen to it that your home can be more secure now more than ever before.
00:03:55.040 You want SimpliSafe.
00:03:56.860 And here's one of the reasons why you really want SimpliSafe.
00:04:00.300 You can get other, you know, security people.
00:04:04.440 SimpliSafe has fast protect monitoring and live guard protection.
00:04:09.540 They can act on your alarm within five seconds.
00:04:13.980 They can see and even talk to the intruder.
00:04:17.500 Now, this is why this is important.
00:04:19.160 They can see them within five seconds.
00:04:21.000 The first thing they do is pick up the phone and call police to verify that your burglar alarm going off is real.
00:04:30.480 Police don't react to burglar alarms going off anymore because so many of them go off by mistake.
00:04:36.660 This is SimpliSafe.
00:04:38.620 And they're extending their massive Black Friday deal this week only.
00:04:42.720 You can get 50% off any new system with the Select Professional Monitoring Plan.
00:04:47.300 This is your last chance to claim their best offer of the year.
00:04:51.840 Head to SimpliSafe.com slash Beck.
00:04:54.120 That's SimpliSafe.com slash Beck.
00:04:57.080 There is no safe like SimpliSafe.
00:05:02.160 You know, I was thinking about where we are in the world.
00:05:07.720 Is freedom retreating or is freedom advancing?
00:05:10.260 Just a few weeks ago, freedom was retreating.
00:05:14.680 And honestly, you know, I understand why people on the left have gone out to the ocean side and just screamed.
00:05:21.760 Did you see all those women that went out, you know, like in New York, you know, to the ocean?
00:05:26.480 And they're like, they had to let out their frustration at the ocean.
00:05:31.380 It's healthy.
00:05:32.560 Yeah, really healthy.
00:05:33.840 You know why they do that, though?
00:05:36.100 They're insane.
00:05:37.440 Well, yes.
00:05:38.480 What did we do when we really got down and we were almost wiped out?
00:05:47.160 What did we do?
00:05:48.420 Did we do that?
00:05:50.300 I certainly didn't.
00:05:51.560 I didn't either.
00:05:52.300 No.
00:05:52.520 I don't know anybody that did.
00:05:54.020 You went to work.
00:05:55.320 That's what we did.
00:05:56.440 And we went to God.
00:05:59.020 Sure.
00:05:59.720 Okay.
00:06:00.120 Some of us were like, Jesus is coming.
00:06:02.320 I think Jesus is still coming.
00:06:03.920 I mean, of course he is.
00:06:04.920 But I mean, you know, maybe in our lifetime.
00:06:06.440 Um, but we went that Bible sales are up 21% in America in the last 12 months.
00:06:13.180 That's phenomenal.
00:06:15.220 Okay.
00:06:15.520 Uh, so we had God to go back to, which gave us this balance.
00:06:22.540 Their God is the government, DEI, all of this stuff.
00:06:27.880 Their God died.
00:06:31.400 So is freedom advancing?
00:06:33.360 It is advancing here, but it is not elsewhere.
00:06:37.560 I want to play this clip from Braveheart.
00:06:41.200 I know you know it, but listen to what he says here.
00:06:44.580 You've come to fight as free men.
00:06:49.100 And free men you are.
00:06:54.120 What will you do without freedom?
00:06:58.780 Will you fight?
00:06:59.800 Fight against that?
00:07:05.420 No!
00:07:06.160 We will run!
00:07:07.680 And we will live!
00:07:09.960 Aye.
00:07:10.920 Fight and you may die.
00:07:13.260 Run.
00:07:14.160 And you'll live.
00:07:15.900 At least a while.
00:07:17.040 And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days
00:07:29.240 from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our
00:07:36.220 enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!
00:07:44.860 Awesome, right?
00:07:45.960 It's awesome.
00:07:46.600 That's what we just did.
00:07:49.800 That is, in essence, the speech that anybody in my position has been giving in our own
00:07:56.900 ways for the last few years.
00:07:59.540 Yeah, we might live.
00:08:01.040 You can cower.
00:08:02.340 You can be quiet.
00:08:03.980 Or you can get up.
00:08:05.520 You can vote.
00:08:06.420 You can organize.
00:08:07.960 We can find the leaders that will actually stand up, that can't live with themselves if
00:08:13.200 they don't stand up at this time and defend and fight for freedom.
00:08:17.680 And that's what happened in America.
00:08:22.220 Now, Canada has been ahead of us on DEI and, I mean, just about everything.
00:08:31.740 One in every 20 Canadian deaths now are through assisted suicide.
00:08:39.260 That's last year.
00:08:40.660 One in every 20 more women are choosing to die than men.
00:08:45.880 That's insane.
00:08:49.900 Do you remember the finance minister that came out against the truckers and said, we're shutting
00:08:55.880 down, we're shutting down all of their bank accounts and they're going into what was it?
00:09:01.580 What was the, you know, like the charitable thing that everybody was donating to that they
00:09:08.480 shut down?
00:09:10.500 Remember during the trucking thing?
00:09:12.420 Anyway.
00:09:12.800 Yeah.
00:09:13.320 Charity.
00:09:14.080 Right.
00:09:14.640 Yeah.
00:09:14.880 Whatever.
00:09:15.320 And so they shut that down and stopped all the transactions so we couldn't give money to
00:09:21.180 the truckers.
00:09:22.280 Okay.
00:09:23.000 And they kind of threatened.
00:09:24.520 Give, send, go.
00:09:25.500 Was it?
00:09:25.760 Maybe.
00:09:26.260 It was one of those.
00:09:26.820 It was one of those.
00:09:27.320 And, and they, uh, and, and they kind of threatened that they were going to look at
00:09:32.440 Americans too.
00:09:33.520 Remember it was terrifying and Canada was terrified because it just destroyed all trust in banking.
00:09:42.320 Well, that woman just got into a fight with Justin Trudeau because apparently he's been throwing
00:09:50.640 her under the bus because he is just doomed.
00:09:53.620 People have had enough of him.
00:09:58.200 Today may be the day Justin Trudeau steps down.
00:10:02.520 He is so close to having to step down.
00:10:07.200 He is on fire right now.
00:10:08.940 It's that bad.
00:10:09.460 You think it could happen today?
00:10:10.480 I think it could happen today.
00:10:11.600 Wow.
00:10:12.100 Okay.
00:10:12.560 I knew he was in trouble.
00:10:13.660 I didn't realize it.
00:10:14.300 Yeah.
00:10:14.320 No, it could happen today.
00:10:16.220 Uh, it, it is all falling apart in Canada.
00:10:19.180 They've had enough.
00:10:20.260 Our, our brothers and sisters that understand freedom, maybe in a different way than we do,
00:10:27.920 that we're headed down the path.
00:10:29.600 In fact, ahead of us have now, are now turning and saying enough is enough.
00:10:36.900 Canada may be remembering freedom.
00:10:47.640 Freedom was on retreat in almost every way possible here.
00:10:52.420 But I think we're now beginning to lead the way out of this because we are, we were so lost.
00:11:01.880 We lost our understanding of freedom.
00:11:04.320 Listen to this headline.
00:11:05.140 Democratic representative Jasmine Crockett suggests slave mentality was behind the Hispanic Trump vote.
00:11:16.660 Wait, that Hispanics have a slave mentality and that's why they voted for Donald Trump.
00:11:25.160 We've lost the meaning of slavery, not just freedom.
00:11:29.460 We've lost the meaning of slavery.
00:11:31.800 That's, that's pretty, that's pretty, pretty amazing.
00:11:37.800 Walmart has rolled back its DEI.
00:11:41.780 Okay.
00:11:42.420 Remember Walmart came out and said, we're going to, we're going to make sure that everybody is fair and, and, uh, equity rules the day.
00:11:50.940 We have forgotten the rules of equality and changed it to equity.
00:11:57.520 Equality means everybody has a chance.
00:11:59.980 You can't judge somebody on anything else other than their skills and the merit.
00:12:06.560 That's equality.
00:12:08.400 Equity means I got to look into your past and see if you're a certain color, have a certain problem, a certain special something, and not take merit into account at all.
00:12:20.500 The world has forgotten freedom, slavery, equality.
00:12:28.340 And what's happening here in America, the resistance is running out of steam.
00:12:39.960 There's a great article, uh, at the blaze.com about, uh, boot church saloon.
00:12:47.100 It's a, it's a little like restaurant on Capitol Hill, just a few blocks away from the house of representatives, uh, and real close to all of their offices.
00:12:56.540 And everybody, you know, from the house, you know, not everybody, but a lot of people go, you know, on their lunch break and they go to the house of representatives.
00:13:03.840 And one of the waitresses got on and said, I'm not going to serve anyone in this Trump administration.
00:13:13.580 Now, what would have happened four years ago, three years ago?
00:13:19.420 Thunderous applause.
00:13:20.640 Thunderous applause.
00:13:22.120 Thunderous applause.
00:13:23.140 And it, it might've even trickled into other restaurants.
00:13:26.320 In fact, it did during his administration.
00:13:28.360 It did.
00:13:29.600 Yeah, that's right.
00:13:30.840 You know what happened this time?
00:13:34.260 They fired her.
00:13:36.120 And then they posted online.
00:13:38.040 We'll serve anybody.
00:13:42.280 We're remembering.
00:13:44.720 We're remembering.
00:13:46.760 Now there's still a fight in front of us on the Walmart thing.
00:13:49.900 They took the DEI thing out, but in using not shareholders, in using the language of stakeholders,
00:13:57.240 the person who was in charge of DEI that found out that we were abandoning DEI in Walmart, she was in charge of it at Walmart.
00:14:05.640 She found out through the press.
00:14:07.000 Wait a minute.
00:14:07.420 What?
00:14:08.360 What does that mean?
00:14:09.600 And she's given a big speech about how this is just so unfair and they don't care about people who are different, blah, blah, blah.
00:14:16.840 They're only doing this because they're afraid of Trump.
00:14:19.320 No, I don't think so.
00:14:21.940 I think they're doing it because they're aware of what the public believes.
00:14:28.240 This is over.
00:14:31.180 It's over in America.
00:14:33.960 Now, we have a lot of work to do to make sure that the vampire that's been sucking the blood out of freedom has a stake in its heart because they're not going to give up.
00:14:46.080 They're a long way from giving up.
00:14:48.340 But they no longer have one of their strongest allies.
00:14:53.460 I mean, they're still allies, but their legs and arms have been cut off, and it's the media.
00:15:00.380 That's like the Monty Python knight on the bridge.
00:15:02.660 Come back, you coward.
00:15:04.780 You have no arms.
00:15:05.820 You have no legs.
00:15:06.420 You can't fight.
00:15:08.040 I'll still fight you.
00:15:09.320 They're still trying to fight, but they don't know.
00:15:12.080 They don't know their legs and arms have been cut off.
00:15:14.340 And they've lost the popular support.
00:15:19.460 Now, in England, there's still a problem.
00:15:26.180 In England, they have put a safe space zone around every abortion clinic.
00:15:38.260 And the law basically is you can't talk about it like 150 yards, something like that.
00:15:44.040 You could be in a restaurant across the street, and you could say, you know, what do you think about this new abortion bill?
00:15:51.680 You can be arrested for that.
00:15:53.600 But it is our brothers and sisters who we fought to get away from because of their stupid parliamentary system and their king and everything else.
00:16:07.140 They're still going down that road.
00:16:09.040 But the people are not.
00:16:11.820 The people in Germany are not.
00:16:13.880 The people in Italy are not.
00:16:15.420 The people in Greece are not.
00:16:16.740 The people in Spain are not.
00:16:18.320 The people in France are not.
00:16:19.880 They just have, they have no concept of freedom, real freedom.
00:16:26.500 They've always had the old systems.
00:16:29.280 They've always had, well, you're a land baron.
00:16:32.780 Oh, well, you're not from the right family.
00:16:34.860 You didn't go to the right school.
00:16:36.620 You don't have the proper English accent.
00:16:42.180 All that crap, that still is over there in the hierarchy.
00:16:46.400 But freedom is advancing.
00:16:57.920 It's advancing everywhere.
00:17:01.180 And once again, something that I said there was only one way, one way this could happen.
00:17:07.960 I could think of a million ways this country just collapses in.
00:17:14.940 And only one way that we survive, and that is God.
00:17:20.120 And God clearly stepped in.
00:17:23.520 He is, to quote the founders, not neutral in the affairs of man.
00:17:29.020 But he didn't, he didn't save us.
00:17:32.840 He saved us and gave us time to save ourselves now.
00:17:39.840 What are we going to do with the time that God just bought for us?
00:17:45.540 It would have been over if the left won.
00:17:49.680 It would have been over.
00:17:52.000 But I don't know why he gave us the benefit of the doubt, but he did.
00:17:56.120 And I think it's because enough of us said, yeah, I don't want to wake up every morning
00:18:04.780 without freedom and wonder why I didn't stand up and fight verbally, just fight, fight with
00:18:15.120 my feet, fight with my voice, fight with my money.
00:18:19.080 Why didn't I do that?
00:18:20.700 We did.
00:18:26.300 As Thomas Jefferson said, always give the American people the benefit of the doubt.
00:18:31.900 They'll get it wrong, but eventually they'll figure it out and get it right.
00:18:35.520 He was right then, he's right now.
00:18:40.660 We did figure it out.
00:18:42.100 We're still figuring it out and people are still waking up.
00:18:47.200 The good news, and I'm not sure this would have happened in Canada as quickly as it had
00:18:54.160 if Donald Trump hadn't called Trudeau the 51st governor.
00:19:01.400 Good news, gang.
00:19:02.520 He was just a uniform away from being a dictator in Canada.
00:19:08.420 It was only a matter of time.
00:19:10.000 Today may be Justin Trudeau's last day.
00:19:15.540 All right, let me tell you about pre-born.
00:19:17.620 Pre-born, I am so unbelievably proud to work with these people.
00:19:25.960 I believe in them so much.
00:19:28.520 Tanya and I, both, I have volunteered my time for them.
00:19:34.140 We have made donations in the past.
00:19:38.300 Yesterday I talked to them and Tanya and I were going to make another donation and they
00:19:41.560 asked me, would you say it on air?
00:19:45.180 Because last year when I said it on air and said I would match you dollar for dollar, they
00:19:51.860 had a lot of contributions.
00:19:53.060 And if you've had a great year, please, will you donate?
00:20:00.380 It could be a dollar.
00:20:01.560 I will match.
00:20:02.260 Tanya and I are going to match everything up to $100,000 today and tomorrow maybe.
00:20:08.380 So if we can raise $100,000, that $100,000 will be $200,000.
00:20:14.360 And Tanya and I will match it.
00:20:16.060 I'm putting my money where my mouth is.
00:20:18.240 I so believe in the work of pre-born.
00:20:22.560 So will you join us?
00:20:24.460 Make a donation of any size, big, small.
00:20:28.200 If you've had a good year, make it a big one because I'll double it.
00:20:32.900 Dial pound 250, say the keyword baby.
00:20:35.420 That's pound 250, keyword baby.
00:20:38.080 There is no better Christmas gift you could ever give than the gift of saving a life and
00:20:44.820 saving a life and a soul of the mom.
00:20:48.040 Preborn.com slash Beck.
00:20:50.160 Preborn.com slash Beck.
00:20:52.660 10 seconds, station ID.
00:21:05.280 Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
00:21:10.820 Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
00:21:17.580 I can't thank for King and Country enough for last night I spent time with my daughter.
00:21:23.100 She was rehearsing this.
00:21:24.340 She was talking to me.
00:21:25.040 She's like, Dad, maybe 300 people, 400 tops.
00:21:30.500 I'm opening for King and Country.
00:21:32.680 And you know what the greatest thing is?
00:21:33.800 She said, I don't want to screw up for them.
00:21:39.080 I don't want to be crappy right before they come on.
00:21:43.780 I'm like, honey, you're not going to be crappy.
00:21:46.160 Actually, though, you kind of like a crappy opening act because it makes you look good.
00:21:50.580 Well, not too crappy.
00:21:51.900 Not so crappy that people want to walk out.
00:21:55.020 Right.
00:21:55.480 But it's only two songs.
00:21:56.900 Yeah, it's two songs.
00:21:57.600 If I were her, tell her she should try to butcher this on purpose.
00:22:00.580 Yeah.
00:22:00.720 And when they asked, I was like, well, there's a lot of orchestral.
00:22:04.520 Can we bring some violins?
00:22:06.880 Can we bring, well, the upbeat songs have, you know, a full jazz band.
00:22:11.460 Can we put that on stage?
00:22:13.020 And they're like, you get a piano, maybe a bass and a drum set.
00:22:17.420 And I'm like, okay.
00:22:19.160 That's fair.
00:22:19.900 So, yeah.
00:22:20.500 That's great.
00:22:21.180 She'll do great.
00:22:21.800 She's really good.
00:22:22.920 At the Grand Ole Opry on Wednesday, I'll be there.
00:22:26.160 If tickets are still available, get it.
00:22:27.800 For King and Country, if you have never seen them, I just saw them for the first time, I don't know, about three, four months ago.
00:22:33.500 They are phenomenal.
00:22:35.400 They're phenomenal.
00:22:37.380 All right.
00:22:38.380 You know, how much time do we have, Sarah?
00:22:41.400 Ah, shoot.
00:22:43.040 I got to get back to this.
00:22:44.680 I saw a podcast, a clip of a podcast yesterday talking about how we have just lost our minds.
00:22:52.920 And luckily, we're coming back.
00:22:54.660 There were two podcasters talking about the death of their white dads.
00:23:01.280 And one said, my dad just died.
00:23:03.080 But he was white, so I kind of celebrate.
00:23:06.040 And the other one said, my dad died a couple of years ago, too.
00:23:10.200 And I kind of feel the same way because they're making room for people of color.
00:23:14.420 And I'm like, what the hell are you talking about?
00:23:16.920 What on earth?
00:23:17.360 Good.
00:23:17.600 Is that the world you want to live in?
00:23:20.620 The answer is clearly no.
00:23:23.440 That's the world we're leaving.
00:23:28.620 Glenn Beck.
00:23:29.780 Finally, the end of the day.
00:23:31.980 No more cares.
00:23:32.620 No more worries.
00:23:33.340 Nothing left for you to do.
00:23:35.160 Everybody's in bed.
00:23:35.880 The lights have gone out all over the house.
00:23:37.600 And you're lying there, head on the pillow.
00:23:39.680 And you're just like, okay, I got to get to sleep.
00:23:41.840 And then it doesn't come.
00:23:43.740 And you're staring at the ceiling.
00:23:45.760 And you're looking at the clock.
00:23:47.180 And you're doing the math in the head.
00:23:48.820 I've got to get up in four hours.
00:23:51.620 Exhausted but wide awake.
00:23:53.440 You're wondering, how bad would it be if I just knock myself out with a hammer?

00:25:25.520 It is.
00:25:27.560 It's been great working with you.
00:25:29.460 Wait.
00:25:30.080 No, before vacation, you mean.
00:25:33.040 Oh, yeah.
00:25:33.760 That's what I meant.
00:25:34.640 Oh.
00:25:34.820 Yeah, and I got a card for you after the show.
00:25:40.560 Is that why they were going through my office before?
00:25:42.680 Are they setting me up with some sort of Christmas surprise?
00:25:45.120 Different office for you.
00:25:46.320 Anyway.
00:25:46.940 It's Stu's last day before Christmas, and then he'll come back, you know, before I do.
00:25:53.600 My last day is Friday.
00:25:56.280 So, Liz Wheeler, we've upgraded.
00:25:59.160 We have upgraded massively.
00:26:02.160 Fair.
00:26:02.600 Liz Wheeler is going to be filling in for you for the next couple of days, which will be really interesting.
00:26:08.040 I find her fascinating.
00:26:09.380 She's great.
00:26:10.000 Really smart.
00:26:10.920 By the way, available on Blaze TV.
00:26:12.740 She's a new Blaze TV host this year, right?
00:26:14.640 It's this year she started.
00:26:15.500 I thought you were going to, like, I thought it was like a dating service all of a sudden.
00:26:18.420 By the way, she's available.
00:26:20.060 And I'm like, what are you doing?
00:26:22.200 You're the one telling everybody she's an upgrade.
00:26:24.560 I mean, I don't.
00:26:26.080 Well, because of you.
00:26:27.960 Right.
00:26:28.480 Everybody knew what that meant.
00:26:29.760 Yes, I know.
00:26:30.400 All right.
00:26:31.040 Yesterday, we were kind of having this argument, I think off air, of daylight savings time.
00:26:36.240 And I was like, I seem to remember it has something to do with farmers.
00:26:41.640 Okay.
00:26:41.840 They have too much, you know, they need more sunlight.
00:26:45.120 I can't remember.
00:26:47.000 And I'm like, it's farmers.
00:26:49.200 I'm sure it's farmers.
00:26:50.580 And so I got to check this out.
00:26:52.940 Because if it's about farming, I'm for it.
00:26:55.720 It's a good stance.
00:26:57.000 Good stance.
00:26:57.560 That's how we get a giant $500 billion farm bill every year.
00:27:01.460 Is it about farming?
00:27:02.820 Then I'm for it.
00:27:03.640 I'm for it.
00:27:04.560 So here is the, so I said to you yesterday, I'll do my homework.
00:27:09.920 Yeah.
00:27:10.160 Let me look into where it started.
00:27:11.800 I'm very interested in where we landed on this.
00:27:13.660 I'm not going to believe.
00:27:15.140 Okay.
00:27:16.220 So if you start looking in all the dark corners of human history, you find a man named Benjamin Franklin.
00:27:24.960 That's not a dark corner.
00:27:25.980 He's my favorite founder.
00:27:27.320 Right.
00:27:27.780 Founding father, inventor, lover of lightning, lover of libraries.
00:27:32.240 Yes.
00:27:32.600 Pretty good guy.
00:27:33.740 Pretty good guy.
00:27:34.300 I love him.
00:27:34.380 Okay.
00:27:34.760 So he's in Paris.
00:27:37.060 And in 1784, he writes.
00:27:40.220 Now, remember in America, he wrote an op-ed under a pseudonym, a nom de plume.
00:27:50.320 Uh, and it was all just comedy.
00:27:53.620 Basically.
00:27:54.180 He was just ripping things apart comedically.
00:27:57.620 Okay.
00:27:58.720 Well, he does this in the journal de Paris.
00:28:02.620 And he writes this letter because he's, he thinks the Parisians are lazy.
00:28:08.800 Now, who would have thought, where did that come from?
00:28:12.440 Geez.
00:28:12.660 I don't know.
00:28:13.240 How things have changed, huh?
00:28:15.200 So he said, uh, I've got an idea.
00:28:18.840 First of all, I can save you a fortune on candles.
00:28:23.160 Uh, and candles.
00:28:24.600 If you woke up a little earlier, you wouldn't need the candle at night because you'd be tired
00:28:30.900 and you'd go to bed.
00:28:32.520 So in this, he said, uh, and we should tax shutters because if you don't have a shutter,
00:28:40.400 the light would come in and you'd wake up and you'd go to work.
00:28:44.660 Okay.
00:28:45.400 And if that doesn't work, we should fire cannons at sunrise.
00:28:49.900 Get out of bed.
00:28:52.100 Okay.
00:28:52.640 So he's writing this about basically making fun of the French for being lazy and laying
00:28:58.380 in bed.
00:28:58.920 Okay.
00:28:59.680 He didn't mean it, but a seed had been planted.
00:29:03.680 So now you have to go a hundred years to the future.
00:29:07.160 Another guy who becomes very serious about the clocks is George Vernon Hudson.
00:29:13.220 He's an entomologist in New Zealand.
00:29:17.900 Okay.
00:29:18.540 And he's like, you know, Benjamin Franklin was right.
00:29:23.040 Why?
00:29:24.360 Because this guy collected butterflies after his job and it got dark too early.
00:29:33.920 For his butterfly collection.
00:29:35.820 For his butterfly collecting.
00:29:37.340 Okay.
00:29:37.760 Okay.
00:29:38.220 This is, I mean, this is insane.
00:29:40.620 So he stirs up a big deal.
00:29:43.360 He's like, we've got to drop our clack clocks back.
00:29:46.360 But he didn't say an hour.
00:29:47.760 He said like 20 minutes.
00:29:50.020 Set it back.
00:29:50.640 20 minutes.
00:29:51.720 20.
00:29:53.340 20 minutes.
00:29:54.040 What are you talking?
00:29:55.080 You know how screwed up everything would be?
00:29:57.040 If we set our clock.
00:29:58.060 I'm going to set him back 16 and a half minutes.
00:30:00.740 Imagine that.
00:30:01.480 Jeez.
00:30:02.220 We can't handle the most basic of tasks.
00:30:04.320 I know.
00:30:04.820 Okay.
00:30:05.120 Imagine that.
00:30:05.840 All right.
00:30:06.200 So he's, you know, he's doing this because again, he's collecting insects.
00:30:12.260 All right.
00:30:14.400 1895 is when he did that.
00:30:16.700 It didn't come back again until William Willett in 1907.
00:30:23.020 He was a wealthy Englishman.
00:30:25.160 He said, just like Benjamin Franklin, except he was sincere about it.
00:30:32.820 Nobody's working anymore.
00:30:35.000 Why can't now this is the, you got to remember, this is a wealthy Englishman.
00:30:38.960 So he's like, why aren't my workers out on the plantation early in the morning?
00:30:44.000 I should be woken up by the sound of hard work.
00:30:47.040 So he says, this is a waste.
00:30:50.240 And he writes a pamphlet, a waste of daylight.
00:30:55.160 He also suggests we only turn the clocks back 20 minutes.
00:30:59.340 All right.
00:31:00.660 So he lobbied parliament.
00:31:03.080 Nobody listened to him.
00:31:04.200 Okay.
00:31:06.960 1916.
00:31:09.840 1916.
00:31:10.440 The beginning of the great war.
00:31:12.620 All across Europe, countries are desperate to do what?
00:31:19.880 What are they fighting?
00:31:20.840 What are they doing?
00:31:21.620 They're fighting, right?
00:31:22.600 If you're fighting, what do you need?
00:31:24.420 Don't think daylight.
00:31:25.340 What do you need?
00:31:26.420 Night.
00:31:27.620 No, no, no.
00:31:29.600 Forget the time.
00:31:30.940 What is valuable?
00:31:33.260 What's valuable is armaments.
00:31:35.960 Okay.
00:31:36.560 Okay.
00:31:36.800 And how do you make armaments back there, back then?
00:31:39.660 Coal.
00:31:41.020 Okay.
00:31:41.440 So they want the light to last as long at night as possible.
00:31:45.620 So the coal plants can, are taking all the coal, instead of giving it to people for energy
00:31:54.140 in their houses, so they can turn on all their lights, they can make armaments.
00:31:58.560 So they have a shortage of fuel, of coal.
00:32:02.300 That was a winding road.
00:32:03.300 I would not have gotten that on my own.
00:32:04.480 Now, this is why I did this dusty, dusty work yesterday.
00:32:09.440 Okay.
00:32:10.480 Suddenly, Germany is like, hey, wait a minute.
00:32:17.500 Remember that guy that was, Germany did this, not England.
00:32:20.560 Germany said, remember that guy who was in parliament who said that you should set the
00:32:25.860 clock back?
00:32:26.560 And they were like, yeah, 20 minutes.
00:32:28.380 And so a German said, how about a full hour?
00:32:33.300 Would that save things?
00:32:36.240 April 30th, 1916, Germany was nothing good comes from Germany.
00:32:41.960 I'm sorry.
00:32:43.100 Really good desserts.
00:32:44.320 Really good desserts.
00:32:45.540 Other than that, nothing good.
00:32:47.600 Well, okay.
00:32:48.420 BMWs are pretty nice.
00:32:50.220 Mercedes, pretty nice.
00:32:51.680 But other than that, nothing comes out of Germany that is good.
00:32:56.980 Aren't you German?
00:32:59.520 There's a few exceptions.
00:33:01.540 Okay.
00:33:01.980 So, all across Europe, the war is raging.
00:33:07.120 Germany sets their clocks back so they can have the daylight so they're not wasting coal.
00:33:14.200 And England is like, hey, wait a minute.
00:33:17.040 Six weeks later, England joins in.
00:33:20.020 Then Europe joins in.
00:33:21.940 Everybody's doing this for the war effort.
00:33:24.620 Then Wilson, then Wilson comes in, and he does it as well in the United States.
00:33:32.980 So, the first time it ever happened was under Woodrow Wilson.
00:33:35.900 I could end the story there, and that explains why I'm now not for Daylight Savings Guide.
00:33:42.620 I could end it there.
00:33:44.880 So, after Wilson, because of the progressives, this is so amazing.
00:33:50.660 Think about this in history.
00:33:51.700 The progressives in 1919 became very unpopular because Woodrow Wilson had had a stroke his last year in office,
00:34:02.140 was absolutely incapable of running anything in the White House.
00:34:06.300 He wasn't in charge.
00:34:08.500 His wife was.
00:34:10.240 Does any of this sound familiar?
00:34:12.800 And he had taken America and pushed it into socialism.
00:34:17.900 And we had lost freedom.
00:34:21.500 And it scared the American people because, at that time, they knew the Constitution.
00:34:26.920 And it had happened in eight years, and they're like, we've got to get away from this.
00:34:30.400 And so, they reversed it.
00:34:32.860 And all the things he did, they reversed, including Daylight Savings Time.
00:34:38.120 And then World War II happened, and FDR came in, and he called it wartime.
00:34:49.340 And he did it for the same reason, to save on coal, save energy.
00:34:55.080 So, to conserve resources again, we put in wartime.
00:34:59.960 And then, we never let it go.
00:35:04.200 So, 70 countries now still observe Daylight Savings Time.
00:35:08.700 That's a third of the world.
00:35:11.920 Across Europe, the clocks spring forward, fall back like clockwork, pun intended.
00:35:16.660 It's called, over in Europe, it's called summertime.
00:35:18.780 In North America, United States, Canada, and Mexico, we're still dancing to this tune, except Mexico is starting to opt out.
00:35:28.260 Parts of Australia and New Zealand still observe it.
00:35:31.680 But in Asia, Africa, and most of South America, they'd be like, these guys are stupid.
00:35:36.580 What are you doing?
00:35:38.520 They're like, yeah, that's not a really, I mean, we don't have candles anymore.
00:35:44.940 Or coal.
00:35:45.500 So, you know, I think we're, you know, I think we're pretty good with this.
00:35:49.840 And it messes with our bodies.
00:35:51.640 And doctors show that the time change increases heart attacks, strokes, car accidents, and grumpiness.
00:36:01.780 The one thing it is, it's on a Saturday, and you're like, oh, I miss church.
00:36:05.480 Gosh darn it, I didn't set my clock.
00:36:07.820 Now, that's not a very good, that's not a good reason to be against it.
00:36:12.200 Wilson is.
00:36:13.220 Your kids miss buses.
00:36:16.800 Anyway, so that is what happened.
00:36:21.480 Now, if we don't, if Donald Trump comes in and says, we're getting rid of daylight savings time, that means the sun in Boston will come up at 4.07 a.m.
00:36:33.340 Like 4.11 in Minneapolis, around the same in Seattle.
00:36:41.600 That is significant.
00:36:43.180 4.20, I think, in Los Angeles.
00:36:45.720 But it's still light until 7 o'clock at night, 8 o'clock at night.
00:36:50.220 I'm pretty cool with that.
00:36:52.220 I'm pretty cool with that.
00:36:54.860 I don't like it when, you know, the problem is, in the winter, it gets dark so early.
00:37:01.320 You kind of like, I don't, wait, I don't need it to be darker, you know, at 3 in the afternoon.
00:37:09.100 I went to, where was that, Copenhagen, I think.
00:37:12.460 I was doing a deal on, I was in Sweden.
00:37:15.780 And I was doing a deal on the Muslim uprisings over there.
00:37:20.700 This is years ago.
00:37:22.180 And, like, the sun rises at, like, 9.30, 9.45, and goes down at 3, you know, 2.45, and it never gets past, like, the sunset.
00:37:32.860 It's never above, like, 20 degrees horizon.
00:37:36.720 And so it just kind of circles the edge.
00:37:39.640 It always looks like dawn or dusk.
00:37:41.660 I think I'd kill myself.
00:37:45.660 I don't care how good the chocolate is or whatever.
00:37:50.020 I think the Swiss Miss would be fashioning a rope for me really quickly.
00:37:55.740 Oh, my gosh.
00:37:57.040 I don't think I could handle it.
00:37:58.140 So, anyway, that's the story.
00:38:00.500 Donald Trump, right again.
00:38:02.380 He is right.
00:38:03.120 Anything that goes against Woodrow Wilson and FDR,
00:38:09.100 I fully 100% back.
00:38:13.980 And, by the way, it all started as a joke.
00:38:16.900 Now, owning firearms is no joke, and it's not a game.
00:38:20.520 It's a serious thing wrapped inside of a responsibility.
00:38:24.500 The responsibility part of that right includes being proficient when you use it.
00:38:29.200 When you pull a gun, you have to be prepared to kill somebody.
00:38:33.380 Never, ever pull a gun.
00:38:35.800 Never point a gun at something you don't intend on killing.
00:38:40.200 Ever.
00:38:40.960 First rule of gun safety.
00:38:44.380 You're not going to wound the person, okay?
00:38:47.700 You don't shoot to wound.
00:38:49.180 That doesn't happen except, you know, by Nemo, okay?
00:38:55.420 And not the fish.
00:38:56.760 Anyway, what you need is Mantis X.
00:38:59.540 It's a high-tech, easy-to-use system approved widely by the military,
00:39:04.920 used by the military, started with the Marines.
00:39:07.500 If it's good enough for them, it's pretty good for me.
00:39:09.520 I've had Marine snipers work with me.
00:39:13.280 And let's just say Mantis X doesn't lose its temper like a Marine does
00:39:18.760 when I just don't get it.
00:39:19.940 It helps you learn how to shoot because what it does is you attach it to your firearm.
00:39:26.140 And then every time that you fire an actual round or dry fire,
00:39:30.500 it will show you exactly what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong,
00:39:34.220 and how to correct it.
00:39:35.400 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes using Mantis X.
00:39:38.900 Be a responsible gun owner.
00:39:40.760 Increase your competence and confidence today with Mantis X.
00:39:44.740 Mantis X makes a great Christmas gift.

00:39:49.940 Are opinions weighing you down?
00:39:53.480 Call in and let it out.
00:39:55.840 888-727-BECK.
00:40:00.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:12.600 All right, so here's a question for you.
00:40:14.580 Are you ready to secure the future of American values for generations to come?
00:40:18.300 Do you know whether or not your investments are aligned with that ideal?
00:40:22.460 We all know Donald Trump won.
00:40:23.860 We all know there's good things coming with that particular development.
00:40:27.260 But that doesn't, you know, the work doesn't just stop because we won an election.
00:40:31.180 There's still a ton of leftist nonsense out there that we need to root out.
00:40:34.960 And Constitution Wealth is here to help empower you to take a stand against that.
00:40:38.440 It reduces the grip that ESG and DEI and CRT and CEI have on your investments.
00:40:46.400 It helps secure your family's future with a rock-solid investment plan.
00:40:50.820 If you think about it this way, like, you got to have returns on your investments, right?
00:40:54.920 You got to retire someday.
00:40:56.260 You don't want your money going to companies that are doing things that you don't like.
00:41:01.540 Whatever that is.
00:41:02.420 I mean, whatever is on your list of things that you don't like.
00:41:05.020 Some, you know, if you're a conservative, there's probably a large list of things you don't like
00:41:09.440 what certain companies are doing these days.
00:41:11.780 Avoid those companies.
00:41:13.020 It's great to go into a store and not buy a six-pack of a beverage that you don't like
00:41:17.380 because of a wokeness.
00:41:19.400 But you need to do more if you're talking about tens of thousands of dollars,
00:41:22.240 hundreds of thousands of dollars of investments.
00:41:24.320 So go to Constitution Wealth.
00:41:25.760 They can help you with that.

00:41:42.540 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program, where you learn all kinds of stuff.
00:42:03.940 You're not going to get the history of Daylight Savings Time anywhere else.
00:42:09.580 I'll tell you that right now.
00:42:10.600 I mean this.
00:42:12.940 With this program, you get exactly what you pay for.
00:42:16.620 Oh, wait, it's free.
00:42:18.920 Well, can I just, the thing, I think our issues are slightly different
00:42:22.660 because I understand you having an issue with a history of Daylight Savings Time.
00:42:25.400 I just can't understand the randomness of it.
00:42:28.740 It's just like, what if we just change the time?
00:42:32.880 That's what it is, the time.
00:42:34.240 What if it's just twice a year we just change the time?
00:42:36.300 What if today, what is 80 degrees, we just call 90 degrees?
00:42:40.480 It's, let's change the temperature randomly.
00:42:43.640 Well, we have.
00:42:45.920 It's called Fahrenheit and Celsius.
00:42:49.720 Yeah, those are two different, yes.
00:42:51.820 But wait a minute.
00:42:52.600 But it is insane.
00:42:53.200 Which came first?
00:42:54.240 Which came first?
00:42:55.860 Fahrenheit or Celsius?
00:42:56.700 You know, that's a good question.
00:43:00.140 There's also Kelvin worked in there.
00:43:01.620 I don't know about Kelvin, but I like Hobbes.
00:43:04.840 So, 1724, Daniel, I call him Danny, Danny Fahrenheit.
00:43:12.440 Danny!
00:43:12.800 He came up with this.
00:43:14.060 It was like 20-some years later that Mr. Celsius came in.
00:43:20.080 You know what Celsius first was?
00:43:22.240 You know how he did his thermometer?
00:43:25.140 100 degrees was what?
00:43:27.620 Zero and 100.
00:43:28.940 What was 100 degrees?
00:43:30.320 On his first Celsius, 100 degrees was freezing and zero was the boiling point.
00:43:38.260 And that's the one the rest of the world took?
00:43:40.480 What the hell is wrong with you?
00:43:42.000 I stand with Nate Bargetsy as of George Washington.
00:43:45.620 We are sticking with our stupid measurements.
00:43:48.500 Oh, my gosh.
00:43:49.660 The rest of the world changed.
00:43:50.760 We got it right.
00:43:51.520 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:57.100 All right, let me tell you about Home Title Lock.
00:43:59.900 Home Title Lock is a company that you need to get in touch with because you need to be
00:44:03.560 protected from house stealing.
00:44:04.760 This is what the FBI calls it.
00:44:06.300 It is one of the fastest growing crimes in America.
00:44:08.940 You're talking about a cyber criminal who kind of comes in, they take control of your
00:44:13.440 home's title, and then they can kind of do what they want with it, just like they
00:44:18.600 own the house, right?
00:44:19.360 You're living in it, but they can take out loans.
00:44:22.120 They can do all sorts of things that make your life a financial and emotional nightmare.
00:44:26.640 This kind of thing can happen to anybody who doesn't have protection against it.
00:44:29.940 So don't let yourself or anyone you know be one of the people it happens to.
00:44:33.960 How do you prevent it?
00:44:35.100 Well, that's the good news.
00:44:36.160 You just get in touch with Home Title Lock.

00:45:35.440 Stand up straight and hold the light.
00:45:39.240 It's a new day, I'm tired of writing.
00:45:43.420 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:45:49.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:45:52.820 Yes, hello America. Welcome. We're glad you're here.
00:45:55.360 No, seriously, we are very glad you're here.
00:45:57.940 Thank you so much for listening.
00:45:59.100 It is Tuesday. Stu's already checked out.
00:46:02.280 Today's his last day before Christmas.
00:46:03.920 Oh, it was weeks ago.
00:46:04.800 Some of us will continue to work.
00:46:06.380 Really? Was it only weeks? Really?
00:46:08.780 I think it was like...
00:46:09.700 52 weeks ago, I checked out.
00:46:12.180 I really think it was like 2011 that you checked out.
00:46:16.260 Anyway, we've got some news for you on the latest on Biden.
00:46:22.300 Apparently, I mean, it's weekend at Bernie's,
00:46:26.040 according to somebody in the National Security Council,
00:46:29.560 which is great.
00:46:30.280 You know, I love when they're trying to pick up chicks
00:46:33.540 and they just spill their guts.
00:46:35.960 You know, being a part of the NSC or NSA,
00:46:38.560 you know, you look for that in a member.
00:46:41.520 You know, you're like, hey, can you keep secrets?
00:46:43.680 Absolutely. Unless I have a beer in my hand.
00:46:46.420 I'm in a bar and she's hot.
00:46:48.740 Absolutely.
00:46:49.880 And did I mention I could go he as well?
00:46:52.700 Don't you question my pronouns.
00:46:54.620 You're hired.
00:46:55.980 We'll get to that here in just a second.
00:46:58.000 First, I want to talk to you about American Giant.
00:47:01.080 American Giant was created 13 years ago
00:47:03.200 to save a clothing factory in North Carolina.
00:47:05.900 So jobs were saved.
00:47:07.440 The employees continued to do their work.
00:47:09.720 They could continue to live where they did,
00:47:11.480 raise their kids.
00:47:12.800 The town didn't shut down.
00:47:15.340 There's so much cheap competition overseas.
00:47:18.880 It's easy to do things overseas,
00:47:20.920 but it's right to do it here in America.
00:47:23.840 With the Chinese producing 80% of our prescription drugs,
00:47:28.520 I don't know.
00:47:29.220 I think that probably should stop.
00:47:31.560 We should probably start making them here.
00:47:34.200 We need manufacturing here in America.
00:47:37.480 And American Giant was one of the first
00:47:39.420 to really dedicate themselves.
00:47:41.700 Every button, every thread,
00:47:44.160 the cotton is grown here in America.
00:47:46.960 It's run through, I don't know,
00:47:49.240 cotton gin still.
00:47:51.780 We use those still.
00:47:53.040 Anyway, they make the cotton here in America.
00:47:56.420 They dye it with American ink.
00:47:58.420 I mean, it is unmatched quality
00:48:00.520 and 100% American.
00:48:03.580 So if you're looking for, you know,
00:48:05.980 a sweater or hoodie,
00:48:07.320 get the greatest hoodies and sweatshirts
00:48:09.220 and everything from American Giant.
00:48:10.740 They are the best.
00:48:12.440 Made the way they were back in the 1960s.
00:48:15.440 Real quality.
00:48:17.200 And you'll save 20% off your first order.
00:48:19.580 So if you're doing Christmas shopping for somebody,
00:48:21.200 buy American quality today
00:48:22.920 at American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
00:48:26.040 That's American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
00:48:29.940 So I don't know if you know this,
00:48:33.400 but Biden claims he's,
00:48:37.660 he got a hundred hostages out of Gaza.
00:48:39.680 I didn't see that happen,
00:48:41.320 but he claimed that he got over a hundred hostages out
00:48:48.920 and the rest are coming.
00:48:50.080 The rest are coming.
00:48:51.440 I don't,
00:48:52.160 a rest should be coming.
00:48:54.900 Not the rest.
00:48:56.200 A rest should be coming for him.
00:48:57.880 Like now.
00:48:59.200 Why is this guy still president?
00:49:02.780 It's shocking and terrifying
00:49:05.020 when you think about the fact that he is.
00:49:07.520 Because you forget, right?
00:49:09.000 And he's not doing it.
00:49:09.820 It doesn't seem like he's active on a day-to-day basis.
00:49:12.620 You don't hear from him often.
00:49:14.060 But we're all still talking about like nuclear war
00:49:16.880 or war in Europe,
00:49:18.740 war in China.
00:49:20.100 Did you see what's happening in China?
00:49:22.060 In China right now,
00:49:23.380 their economy is collapsing
00:49:25.420 because they did the same thing we did.
00:49:28.340 And so they bailed everybody out,
00:49:30.440 but not the people.
00:49:32.180 You know,
00:49:32.820 why,
00:49:33.280 why worry about the peasants?
00:49:34.940 You know,
00:49:35.780 they bailed out all the banks
00:49:37.400 and everybody at the top.
00:49:38.700 So they all got their money,
00:49:39.960 but none of the peasants did.
00:49:42.340 Now they're starting to go,
00:49:43.920 um,
00:49:44.260 we might need to go back
00:49:46.800 to some of that teachings of Mao
00:49:49.200 in the 1960s
00:49:51.020 because there's starting to be real civil unrest
00:49:53.620 because people lost their money,
00:49:56.140 lost their home.
00:49:56.940 In,
00:49:57.540 in China,
00:49:58.220 you didn't get your home.
00:49:59.580 You were paying every month on your home.
00:50:02.580 And at the end,
00:50:03.500 you could get your home.
00:50:05.760 So they put all of this money in
00:50:07.960 and they don't have anything.
00:50:09.700 They don't have,
00:50:10.160 they don't even have the home.
00:50:11.160 They don't have the land.
00:50:11.780 They have nothing.
00:50:13.200 Okay.
00:50:14.040 Um,
00:50:14.600 and,
00:50:15.320 uh,
00:50:15.700 what happens when a,
00:50:18.040 what happens when a country like China
00:50:20.320 or a country like America
00:50:21.600 is in real trouble of civil unrest?
00:50:24.500 What do they usually do?
00:50:26.120 What unites a country?
00:50:29.640 I'll give you one word in China.
00:50:32.000 It's called Taiwan.
00:50:33.500 Hmm.
00:50:34.880 Uh,
00:50:35.080 that's also an industrial giant
00:50:36.940 will also help them economically.
00:50:40.700 Yeah.
00:50:41.360 I mean,
00:50:41.900 I guess it'll longterm.
00:50:43.480 It would,
00:50:44.260 right?
00:50:44.420 Like you go in there and you,
00:50:45.680 you know,
00:50:46.040 make all the factories explode.
00:50:47.760 Generally speaking,
00:50:48.560 it's not going to help you.
00:50:49.940 It's not going to help anybody
00:50:50.800 economically in the short term.
00:50:52.500 I hope somebody makes those factories explode.
00:50:56.420 Uh,
00:50:56.900 I mean,
00:50:57.400 it'll hurt the whole world,
00:50:58.660 but yeah,
00:50:59.900 but I've never heard the world,
00:51:01.000 but I mean,
00:51:02.140 you can't have China.
00:51:03.460 Those are the best.
00:51:04.960 That's for every supercomputer.
00:51:06.540 That's that.
00:51:07.440 The,
00:51:07.940 those are the finest chips made.
00:51:10.020 The most complicated chips made.
00:51:12.180 You can't,
00:51:13.100 you can't have China control all of that
00:51:15.420 and we get nothing.
00:51:16.440 Are you crazy?
00:51:17.620 Yeah,
00:51:17.780 it's a problem.
00:51:18.260 I mean,
00:51:18.400 they,
00:51:18.600 they took over Hong Kong.
00:51:19.900 Didn't seem like anybody even noticed.
00:51:21.360 Yeah,
00:51:21.640 I know.
00:51:21.920 It was like,
00:51:22.320 ah,
00:51:22.760 they killed all the,
00:51:23.780 they killed all the people in Hong Kong,
00:51:25.660 you know,
00:51:26.020 but we were like,
00:51:26.860 I have a sneeze.
00:51:28.400 What's coming from China.
00:51:30.740 And they killed every,
00:51:32.180 all of those protesters when we weren't paying attention.
00:51:34.620 And I think if I were,
00:51:37.500 if I mean,
00:51:38.440 they are going back to Mao rules.
00:51:41.320 They're,
00:51:41.860 they're now saying Xi Jinping is saying,
00:51:44.380 uh,
00:51:45.320 what we need to do is,
00:51:47.080 uh,
00:51:47.520 give local control of your population,
00:51:50.120 but I'll hold you responsible if your local population gets out of
00:51:54.540 control.
00:51:54.900 So that's what Mao did.
00:51:56.860 And then,
00:51:57.420 so all of the locals were like,
00:51:59.260 well,
00:52:00.280 string them up,
00:52:01.220 kill them,
00:52:02.740 make an example out of them.
00:52:03.940 I mean,
00:52:04.260 it went dark fast because they didn't want to get killed or strung up.
00:52:09.480 Uh,
00:52:09.920 and they're going back to that.
00:52:11.340 Now he just issued an order that it's local control of all civilian
00:52:15.280 unrest.
00:52:16.300 And so all the locals are going to be held responsible.
00:52:19.320 So that could get bad.
00:52:21.800 Um,
00:52:22.160 and with the economy,
00:52:23.360 uh,
00:52:24.260 just dying over there,
00:52:25.640 they need to distraction.
00:52:27.360 And I would,
00:52:28.300 if I were China,
00:52:29.840 is China listening?
00:52:31.960 Oh yeah,
00:52:32.160 that's right.
00:52:32.520 They listen to everything.
00:52:33.240 Um,
00:52:34.140 if I were China,
00:52:35.700 this would be the time I would take it.
00:52:38.180 What's Donald Trump going to do?
00:52:40.660 January 20th.
00:52:41.860 We're already there.
00:52:43.020 We've already taken it.
00:52:43.960 They could take it in a swarm almost overnight.
00:52:48.920 We,
00:52:49.420 you think,
00:52:50.240 you think,
00:52:50.740 you think Chinese Joe who's asleep is going to do anything.
00:52:56.500 You think this Pentagon will send a bunch of he,
00:52:59.640 she's over there to fight.
00:53:01.020 Now it's not going to happen.
00:53:03.240 It's not going to happen.
00:53:04.140 What,
00:53:04.700 uh,
00:53:05.200 what's the right thing to do in that situation for us?
00:53:10.320 Yeah.
00:53:10.940 Like what you're president of the United States.
00:53:13.480 God heavens,
00:53:15.020 please protect us against such a fate.
00:53:17.000 But you're Glenn Beck is president of the United States and China decides to go in there.
00:53:23.560 And I know we have all sorts of promises.
00:53:25.820 I would already have my,
00:53:28.420 uh,
00:53:30.240 special forces there.
00:53:34.800 Honestly,
00:53:35.780 working with their government or,
00:53:38.660 or not,
00:53:39.660 if they won't do it,
00:53:40.620 but I detonate.
00:53:42.880 If,
00:53:43.540 if there was an invasion,
00:53:44.800 I detonate those labs.
00:53:46.400 So you're saying destroy the technology.
00:53:48.960 Destroy the technology.
00:53:49.540 So we all are standing at an equal chance of getting the super chips.
00:53:54.060 You know,
00:53:54.600 they have to rebuild.
00:53:55.560 We have to rebuild.
00:53:57.280 They'll build it faster than us because they'll do it.
00:54:00.020 They'll build a building without a bones,
00:54:01.980 human bones,
00:54:02.720 if they have to.
00:54:03.900 Um,
00:54:04.180 but,
00:54:04.680 uh,
00:54:04.960 we have,
00:54:05.520 I mean,
00:54:05.700 we have some of this,
00:54:07.060 uh,
00:54:07.800 not Taiwan is,
00:54:09.280 it's like 95% of the market or something.
00:54:11.900 And it's of all,
00:54:12.880 of the biggest and best chips.
00:54:15.300 But that's the manufacturing,
00:54:17.020 right?
00:54:17.340 Yes.
00:54:17.620 So it's not like we're going to need to rediscover this technology.
00:54:20.480 No,
00:54:20.700 but no,
00:54:21.260 no,
00:54:21.320 no,
00:54:21.380 we don't have to rediscover it.
00:54:22.440 It's just very hard to build those clean.
00:54:25.460 Sure.
00:54:25.700 Okay.
00:54:26.760 So the first,
00:54:27.820 the first and maybe only thing I would do,
00:54:29.960 because we don't have the supply line.
00:54:32.160 We can,
00:54:32.840 for a,
00:54:33.320 what do we have?
00:54:34.260 What do we,
00:54:34.820 what do we,
00:54:35.160 what do we have?
00:54:35.760 Well,
00:54:36.060 we could take all the drones out of New Jersey and fly them over to China,
00:54:41.560 but China has,
00:54:43.440 have you seen the,
00:54:44.300 the,
00:54:45.100 the drone army that they have?
00:54:48.980 Oh yeah.
00:54:49.520 I've seen some,
00:54:50.040 you know,
00:54:50.200 some of the videos and stuff.
00:54:51.120 Yeah.
00:54:51.420 It's crazy.
00:54:52.440 It will overwhelm anything we would try to do.
00:54:55.740 And we just don't have the supply lines.
00:54:58.740 We can't get the fuel and the munitions and everything over to China fast enough.
00:55:03.780 It would be over.
00:55:04.920 I mean,
00:55:05.400 the,
00:55:05.660 the end,
00:55:06.140 at the end of the day,
00:55:06.920 and this is somewhat true with Russia and several other enemies.
00:55:11.880 Like we want to avoid that war at any cost.
00:55:14.500 Yes.
00:55:14.780 Like I want to avoid war with China basically at any cost.
00:55:18.160 We won't go to war with China.
00:55:19.140 We're not going to go.
00:55:19.940 And I know.
00:55:20.380 And like,
00:55:20.660 it's sad to say,
00:55:21.600 but like we,
00:55:22.180 we,
00:55:22.400 we won't.
00:55:23.120 I don't,
00:55:23.380 I think at the end of the day,
00:55:24.420 we will not do that.
00:55:25.680 Now the hope is you have someone like,
00:55:27.640 you know,
00:55:27.920 Trump in who projects some strength.
00:55:30.420 Yeah.
00:55:30.620 That's why you do it.
00:55:32.060 That's why you do it right now.
00:55:33.920 In the,
00:55:34.120 in the last month.
00:55:35.240 Yeah.
00:55:36.040 In four weeks,
00:55:37.000 they'll control Taiwan.
00:55:38.700 It'll be over.
00:55:39.280 You know,
00:55:39.640 Trump has been pretty clear.
00:55:41.040 Like,
00:55:42.020 I mean,
00:55:42.740 let's be honest,
00:55:43.200 but I'm a little concerned that Donald Trump might have a constitutional violation because he's
00:55:49.960 supposed to be limited to two terms.
00:55:51.520 And he seems to currently be president of the United States.
00:55:54.380 He seems like he just took over early.
00:55:56.660 Like I,
00:55:57.040 wow,
00:55:58.160 that is true.
00:55:59.100 I mean,
00:55:59.280 it's crazy.
00:56:00.120 I've never seen that.
00:56:01.720 You're right.
00:56:02.380 I've never seen this.
00:56:04.040 It's bizarre.
00:56:04.620 I mean,
00:56:04.920 he seems to basically,
00:56:06.500 I know he doesn't have his hands on all of the tools that he will have when he's president,
00:56:10.960 but as far as like,
00:56:11.800 he's affecting all of the foreign policy and everything else.
00:56:14.420 Yeah.
00:56:14.640 Which is incredible.
00:56:15.580 Yeah.
00:56:15.840 I mean,
00:56:16.120 it really is.
00:56:16.820 And I do think.
00:56:18.300 Well,
00:56:18.400 it's because there's a vacuum.
00:56:20.400 Yeah.
00:56:20.540 And he can do it because,
00:56:22.160 you know,
00:56:23.220 I think the last,
00:56:24.200 he has to do it.
00:56:25.220 What,
00:56:25.700 he has no choice,
00:56:26.860 but to do it for the good of the country.
00:56:28.380 Yes.
00:56:28.900 Yes.
00:56:29.080 I honestly think that like,
00:56:31.220 without him stepping into a lot of these situations,
00:56:34.580 God only knows what would happen.
00:56:35.860 I think a lot of these countries are looking at this and saying,
00:56:37.760 all right,
00:56:38.040 like let's get through the next few weeks.
00:56:40.280 Well,
00:56:40.400 I think Russia is just preparing for negotiations.
00:56:43.360 Yeah.
00:56:43.660 Okay.
00:56:43.980 And they're trying to strengthen their hand for negotiations with Trump because they know he is tough on negotiations.
00:56:50.580 Yep.
00:56:50.720 But China is backed into a financial corner so deeply that they may need,
00:56:59.080 a win in Taiwan to hold their nation together because they're in real dire trouble,
00:57:08.360 dire trouble.
00:57:09.040 They took all these people out of the rice paddies and had them build these ghost cities that are sitting empty.
00:57:16.600 And so they're,
00:57:17.960 they see how they can live and they're sitting empty and wait,
00:57:23.160 you just took my money.
00:57:24.260 Well,
00:57:24.380 I want one of those.
00:57:25.920 Why don't I get one of those?
00:57:27.760 Why are you bailing?
00:57:28.500 Think how mad we were at the bailout of the banks.
00:57:31.340 Imagine being rice paddy to bamboo scaffolding,
00:57:36.320 building those giant cities.
00:57:38.600 They're completely empty.
00:57:41.000 The banks have them.
00:57:42.740 Now China has them and you lost everything.
00:57:46.880 Oh my gosh.
00:57:47.780 This is central plan.
00:57:48.960 They're in trouble.
00:57:49.060 This is what happens.
00:57:50.180 They are in big trouble.
00:57:51.560 They are in trouble.
00:57:52.180 I hope they don't do this because I don't know.
00:57:55.240 There's not really a great answer.
00:57:56.720 We could look,
00:57:57.400 we,
00:57:57.600 by the time we get back from the Christmas vacation,
00:58:00.560 we could be looking at a different world.
00:58:03.520 Remember when we came back from Christmas vacation in 2020 and,
00:58:07.180 and I said stupidly,
00:58:12.240 wow,
00:58:13.020 have you seen what they're doing in China?
00:58:14.740 They're like telling everybody they have to stay in.
00:58:17.180 Well,
00:58:17.300 you'll never do that in America.
00:58:19.700 I thought the same thing.
00:58:20.900 I thought it was happening in Italy.
00:58:22.420 Yeah.
00:58:22.640 I remember being like,
00:58:23.400 can you imagine if they ever tried to do that here?
00:58:25.300 Like six days later.
00:58:26.920 Yeah.
00:58:27.300 And we're being yelled at.
00:58:28.840 They have every right to do it.
00:58:30.380 And we're like,
00:58:30.800 wait,
00:58:31.380 what?
00:58:32.800 But anyway,
00:58:33.760 we could be coming back from vacation talking about Taiwan.
00:58:38.240 I hope not.
00:58:39.160 I hope not.
00:58:39.900 But I don't think we have anything we could do other than tariffs and trade wars.
00:58:46.680 We can't go to war with China at this point.
00:58:49.760 We can't.
00:58:50.300 I think the projecting strength is,
00:58:53.060 does a lot in that,
00:58:54.240 in that relationship.
00:58:55.100 Yeah.
00:58:55.360 Now,
00:58:55.760 could I just feebly folding every single time?
00:58:58.940 But that's why I say this is your last chance.
00:59:03.080 If China wants to make a move in the next four years,
00:59:08.160 if,
00:59:08.400 if Vance gets in possibly another eight or 12 years before you could have a
00:59:15.200 weakened America like you have now.
00:59:17.920 And let me show you how weak.
00:59:19.800 This is the national security council advisor inside of the white house.
00:59:26.820 This is from O'Keefe media.
00:59:29.080 Listen to what he says about Joe Biden's condition.
00:59:32.480 Well,
00:59:33.380 here's something.
00:59:33.940 Joe Biden is like dead.
00:59:38.700 He like can't just say something.
00:59:41.200 He's like really like progressed.
00:59:45.020 He's old.
00:59:46.160 Yeah.
00:59:47.660 Everybody recognize.
00:59:48.580 I can't believe it wasn't a bigger scandal.
00:59:50.600 He'll be dead in a year.
00:59:52.700 My boss was on an international trip with him like in Europe or something.
00:59:57.200 He's like,
00:59:57.740 the phone rang in the office.
00:59:59.440 And I was like,
01:00:01.280 hello,
01:00:01.420 Mr. President.
01:00:01.860 Hello,
01:00:02.500 Henry.
01:00:03.380 He was like,
01:00:05.060 he's safe there.
01:00:05.880 He's like,
01:00:07.460 no,
01:00:08.380 I'm traveling with you.
01:00:10.560 He's on the same trip you are.
01:00:12.420 A couple of weeks ago,
01:00:13.980 I was like the last one in the office.
01:00:16.700 There's going to be a call from my boss.
01:00:18.920 And so I picked his phone and said,
01:00:21.860 hello,
01:00:22.100 Mr. President.
01:00:23.940 Henry on Jake's phone.
01:00:25.840 He's up for the day,
01:00:26.640 but I can try to get him.
01:00:28.120 I'm on the line for you.
01:00:30.180 He asked his suggestion.
01:00:31.780 I was like,
01:00:32.160 I don't know,
01:00:32.580 let me get the secret service detail.
01:00:37.340 I'll try his unclassified phone.
01:00:40.860 And then like 10 seconds later,
01:00:43.180 same.
01:00:45.120 I picked her up again.
01:00:46.200 I was like,
01:00:47.100 hi again,
01:00:48.900 it's Henry.
01:00:50.200 He's like,
01:00:50.620 is Jake there?
01:00:51.420 I was like,
01:00:52.580 no,
01:00:53.060 you called the same office.
01:00:54.640 Oh my gosh.
01:00:56.240 In case you couldn't understand that,
01:00:58.180 he was saying,
01:00:59.220 this is Jake Sullivan's assistant.
01:01:03.580 And he said,
01:01:05.180 he's practically dead.
01:01:07.440 He can't put coherent sentences together.
01:01:09.920 He said,
01:01:10.980 Jake was on a trip with Biden overseas and he called Jake's phone back in
01:01:17.960 Washington.
01:01:18.640 And that guy picked it up and he said,
01:01:20.640 no,
01:01:21.160 Mr.
01:01:21.700 President,
01:01:22.720 Jake is with you on that trip.
01:01:25.840 Oh,
01:01:26.440 then he called again.
01:01:27.960 And he said,
01:01:29.020 Hey,
01:01:29.240 can I,
01:01:29.720 I need to call Jake.
01:01:31.400 And he said,
01:01:32.280 well,
01:01:32.560 he's not here.
01:01:33.520 I'll call him.
01:01:34.240 And he said,
01:01:34.620 no,
01:01:34.780 I'll just now listen to this.
01:01:36.040 I'll just call him on his unclassified phone.
01:01:40.160 Okay.
01:01:40.680 You don't do that.
01:01:42.800 You do not do that.
01:01:45.020 And I'll explain why if we have time later in the show.
01:01:48.940 but he says,
01:01:51.780 I'll just call him on his unclassified phone,
01:01:54.180 hangs up the phone,
01:01:55.200 phone rings again.
01:01:56.380 That guy picks it up.
01:01:57.400 Henry picks it up.
01:01:58.240 And he's like,
01:01:59.400 hello,
01:02:00.100 Mr.
01:02:00.400 President.
01:02:01.560 No,
01:02:02.400 no.
01:02:02.600 You called the same phone number.
01:02:05.540 Tell me if you are a world leader,
01:02:07.720 you don't look at your opportunity that is going away in the next four or five
01:02:12.320 weeks and say,
01:02:14.360 I don't know.
01:02:16.440 I think we do it right now.
01:02:18.560 I hope nobody is thinking about that,
01:02:21.200 but this is why I've said this time between the election and the inauguration is wildly
01:02:26.980 dangerous for America.
01:02:28.640 And the less we pay attention to the news,
01:02:31.620 the more dangerous it becomes.
01:02:33.340 And that kind of begins in America next week.
01:02:38.120 All right.
01:02:38.740 Let me tell you about relief factor.
01:02:39.920 If you're one of those people who have lived with frequent or even constant pain,
01:02:43.280 you might've gotten to the point where you just accepted that that's how life is.
01:02:47.380 Don't do it.
01:02:48.640 There may be a way for you to get away from that pain.
01:02:51.920 The answer may be right in front of you.
01:02:54.520 It's called relief factor.
01:02:56.000 It helped me get my life back.
01:02:57.440 It could work for you.
01:02:58.780 About 70% of the people who try it go on to order it again month after month.
01:03:02.640 And I'm one of them.
01:03:03.860 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation,
01:03:07.360 which is the source of most of our pain in our bodies.
01:03:09.920 And a lot of disease.
01:03:11.480 It's a hundred percent drug free developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.
01:03:16.140 And like I said,
01:03:17.060 over a million people have tried it.
01:03:18.200 70% go on to order it month after month.
01:03:20.180 So stop masking your pain and start fighting back naturally.
01:03:23.200 Give relief factor a try.
01:03:24.760 Three week quick start.
01:03:25.620 Nineteen ninety five.
01:03:26.460 Go to relieffactor dot com or call 800.
01:03:28.820 The number for relief.
01:03:30.080 800 for relief.
01:03:31.140 It's relieffactor dot com.
01:03:33.080 Ten seconds.
01:03:33.600 Station ID.
01:03:33.980 Honestly, I don't know.
01:03:45.600 It's the most wonderful.
01:03:47.920 Stu just said, how are these guys still talking to people?
01:03:51.040 Like, because they don't think with their pants.
01:03:54.700 They don't.
01:03:55.180 Yeah.
01:03:55.360 I guess that's it.
01:03:56.080 Right.
01:03:56.260 Like this is all these seem to be on dates.
01:03:59.420 Yeah.
01:03:59.600 Right.
01:03:59.880 And I don't know.
01:04:00.600 We don't know who they're on dates with.
01:04:02.780 But like, I just, you're, you're, he's an advisor for the intelligence program, National
01:04:08.440 Security Council.
01:04:09.760 Under Jake Sullivan.
01:04:11.520 Right.
01:04:11.720 Like, how can you be talking to anybody about this?
01:04:14.600 Unless, you know, maybe it's somebody you work with and you're in the office.
01:04:17.900 But like, you don't go out to dinner and run your mouth about this stuff.
01:04:21.520 You'd be whispering it.
01:04:23.800 Yeah.
01:04:24.780 Have you seen the president?
01:04:25.820 The president just called me yesterday.
01:04:27.460 And I don't think he knows.
01:04:28.980 Exactly.
01:04:29.180 That's the way you do it.
01:04:29.940 Not sitting with a glass of wine and going, you know what?
01:04:33.140 Another thing that might make you hot and want me a little more.
01:04:36.060 Let me tell you about the president.
01:04:38.340 He called me and he didn't even know who I was, where Jake Sullivan was.
01:04:43.500 It's crazy.
01:04:44.300 I mean, I suppose this is not a new lesson, right?
01:04:48.000 I mean, Bill Clinton blew up his presidency over Monica Lewinsky.
01:04:51.880 You know, like, this stuff happens, I suppose.
01:04:54.300 Is there not a slideshow of just showing all the O'Keefe videos?
01:04:59.940 That they're just like, this one, this one, this one, this one.
01:05:02.520 Hey, if you're out at a dinner and people are randomly following up on every point you make about Joe Biden, maybe, just maybe, it's not a real date.
01:05:12.720 I just don't understand it.
01:05:15.020 Yes.
01:05:16.000 But, Your Honor, look at her picture.
01:05:18.440 She was amazingly hot.
01:05:20.080 I mean, that's really, that's got to be it.
01:05:22.940 I don't, I really don't get it.
01:05:25.500 Or he's amazingly hot.
01:05:26.380 It's one of the two.
01:05:26.940 Yeah, one of the two.
01:05:27.540 One of the two.
01:05:27.860 He could be amazingly hot.
01:05:29.080 I mean, it is, it's remarkable.
01:05:32.960 I mean, I would be, I would tender my resignation.
01:05:36.120 If I got caught like that, I'd tender my resignation immediately, and I would be like, I am so sorry.
01:05:42.600 I am so sorry.
01:05:43.380 I'm so sorry.
01:05:43.800 It's embarrassing, and I deserve to be fired immediately.
01:05:46.360 Right.
01:05:46.560 Right?
01:05:46.880 Yeah.
01:05:47.920 And you deserve to chastise me, because this should never have, I don't know what I was thinking.
01:05:53.540 This should have never happened.
01:05:54.860 But apparently they don't, they don't really make it out of, into a big deal when somebody does it, because it keeps happening.
01:06:01.740 Is anybody paying a price for this?
01:06:05.700 Because it keeps happening.
01:06:08.680 I don't know.
01:06:10.000 You'd think like, like the beginning of every day, they'd be like, whatever you do, if you go out on a date tonight, don't repeat stuff from the office.
01:06:19.740 You work in the National Security Council.
01:06:23.140 National Security Council?
01:06:24.820 You don't get to.
01:06:25.820 How is that possible?
01:06:26.760 This isn't fuel for your picking up chicks or dudes.
01:06:29.660 If he's got top secret classification, you should give it to me.
01:06:34.600 And I should never be around that.
01:06:37.880 Glenn Beck.
01:06:40.080 There was another shooting in school yesterday, and when I first saw the headlines, thank goodness only two people, a teacher and a student, lost their lives yesterday.
01:06:50.000 But horrible.
01:06:51.960 It's horrible.
01:06:53.080 Every time I hear about a school shooting, I think of the Berna launcher.
01:06:56.320 I mean, I could tell you about, you know, get it for your family for Christmas.
01:07:00.660 I did it last year.
01:07:01.560 Stu did it as well.
01:07:03.120 I think this is the best protection device you can have other than a gun.
01:07:09.520 And it's legal in all 50 states.
01:07:11.600 You just have to be 18 years or older.
01:07:15.000 You don't need a license.
01:07:15.980 They ship it right to your door.
01:07:17.700 But a Berna launcher will incapacitate with tear gas or with kinetic rounds or pepper spray, whatever, up to 60 feet away.
01:07:28.000 There is no reason that we don't have these in every single school.
01:07:34.140 This would stop the shooting.
01:07:36.840 It wouldn't have stopped yesterday.
01:07:38.260 But this will stop the shootings.
01:07:40.700 There's no reason other than the teachers unions, we don't have Berna launchers in all the schools.

01:08:32.720 If you are somebody who gets our free morning newsletter, which is all of my show prep, you just sign up for it at glennbeck.com.
01:08:42.420 You will see absolutely every story that's legit or from a legit source about the drones.
01:08:55.520 And none of them agree with each other, except that it's happening.
01:09:00.220 Well, I can't say that because they don't agree on that either.
01:09:03.000 Some people are saying, well, this is you're just seeing stars.
01:09:06.260 I've seen stars my whole life.
01:09:08.520 I know what a star looks like.
01:09:11.640 I know what a plane looks like.
01:09:16.320 Potential drone sightings in Vermont.
01:09:19.140 Potential drone sightings in New York.
01:09:22.920 Are these drone sightings over Georgia?
01:09:26.260 Michigan man reports mystery drone sighting.
01:09:29.740 Mystery drones over UK air bases and threat of Russian sleeper agents.
01:09:35.620 So now the English are saying the drones over there are from Russia.
01:09:41.240 Mystery drones spotted in Tacoma.
01:09:43.820 You know what the number one drone sighting state is?
01:09:50.660 You would say New Jersey, right?
01:09:51.880 New Jersey, yeah.
01:09:52.580 Uh-uh.
01:09:52.920 Oklahoma.
01:09:54.020 What?
01:09:54.740 Yeah.
01:09:55.340 Oklahoma is the number one drone sight sighting capital, apparently, of the world.
01:10:02.040 And the governor just said, they're there every night.
01:10:09.160 You can see them when the sky is cleared.
01:10:11.120 Um, he said, I've been watching these for over a year and they're not hunters looking
01:10:16.500 for pigs or coyotes or anything like that because they're flying around in an observational
01:10:20.500 way.
01:10:21.480 Um, he said he has asked the, uh, White House to give Oklahoma the same things that they're
01:10:29.380 supposedly giving to New York.
01:10:31.200 I mean, if, if they, if it was nothing to worry about, why would they be giving all these
01:10:37.260 states this really high, sophisticated drone stuff?
01:10:41.760 Well, I guess maybe because if it is, if it is actually a mystery drone and, uh, the
01:10:48.060 government's not involved and it's nothing to worry about, then it's just people just
01:10:52.300 messing with the FAA.
01:10:53.740 Uh, drone sightings in San Diego, uh, in Kentucky.
01:10:59.800 And now they're saying, uh, these people with lasers, when you point them at a drone, you
01:11:06.160 might be pointing them at an aircraft and we'll come and arrest you.
01:11:09.200 Why can't you just track the signal back on the drones to fight?
01:11:13.680 Why is that not even threatened?
01:11:16.660 If you're flying any of these drones, we will find you because we can track your signal from
01:11:23.220 the drone back to you, the operator, and we'll do it.
01:11:26.940 I mean, I, I, with all the technology they have and all the monitoring that they do, you'd
01:11:31.940 think that would be possible.
01:11:33.960 I mean, no, it is, it is possible.
01:11:35.640 I know, but I mean, so why wouldn't they be doing it?
01:11:39.160 Right.
01:11:39.380 Why wouldn't we be doing it?
01:11:40.360 My guess is maybe it's not as easy as, as, as we think it is.
01:11:45.280 I mean, a lot of times, I mean, you see this happen all the time.
01:11:47.260 Like, Hey, this guy just murdered a CEO in the middle of Manhattan.
01:11:50.600 Oh, he got all the way to Pennsylvania.
01:11:52.480 Like what?
01:11:53.920 So here is Whoopi Goldberg's explanation.
01:11:57.580 You heard this?
01:11:58.120 No, I have not heard of Whoopi.
01:11:59.680 I think this, I think they know what it is.
01:12:02.340 I think they're not going to really be able to say it, or we're going to get a really
01:12:08.220 hell of a big party for New Year's Eve.
01:12:11.600 It's going to just, it's going to be like a dome over all 50 states of these drones.
01:12:16.840 It could be something like that.
01:12:18.200 Well, why not?
01:12:18.960 I mean, stranger things have happened.
01:12:21.620 Then, uh, then a New Year's Eve party with drones.
01:12:25.420 Okay.
01:12:26.580 These people are out of their mind.
01:12:27.480 A dome of drones over all 50 states.
01:12:29.840 Stranger things have happened.
01:12:30.900 No.
01:12:31.060 No.
01:12:31.660 Not really.
01:12:32.900 And strange things have happened.
01:12:34.600 I give her credit on that.
01:12:35.520 That really unexpected things have happened, but not stranger than that, I don't think.
01:12:40.180 Um, Donald Trump says yesterday, he was asked about it.
01:12:43.420 He said, uh, he was asked, have you been briefed in your, in your president elect briefings?
01:12:50.760 And all he said is the government knows what they are and they're just not telling the American
01:12:57.200 people.
01:12:58.020 That's what he said.
01:12:59.220 Hmm.
01:13:00.420 Uh, hopefully he will.
01:13:02.580 Maybe, maybe we find out on January 20th.
01:13:04.880 I have to tell you, I, I heard somebody yesterday give what I think is the answer without question,
01:13:13.420 mathematically the answer.
01:13:15.600 I'll give that to you here in just a second.
01:13:17.280 First, uh, I have a, uh, hang on just a second.
01:13:21.040 Let me pull it up here.
01:13:23.220 Um, I have a New Jersey state Senator.
01:13:25.360 Uh, his name is John Bramnick.
01:13:28.080 Uh, he is, he thinks he knows why the federal government is not telling the truth on the
01:13:34.880 drones.
01:13:35.940 Uh, welcome to the, uh, program state Senator, uh, John Bramnick.
01:13:41.060 Good to be with you, Glenn.
01:13:42.480 Thank you.
01:13:43.360 So, um, you've been on this now for a while.
01:13:47.200 Uh, and apparently in New Jersey, it's a very big deal, but, uh, Mallorca said it might
01:13:52.540 be stars, but I think we've all seen stars before.
01:13:55.800 Um, what have you found and why isn't, if the government knows what it is, why aren't
01:14:03.660 they telling us?
01:14:05.520 Well, let me talk about the evolution of this.
01:14:07.640 First people saw these drones, large drones, including the state police.
01:14:11.640 The colonel and the state police had a briefing with us where one of their helicopters saw
01:14:16.540 a large SUV size drone that was flying next to the helicopter, turn off its lights and
01:14:23.860 fled.
01:14:24.500 Now that's not some citizen.
01:14:26.540 That's the helicopter pilots for the state police.
01:14:29.080 So it started off with clear observations of unusually large drones that were turning
01:14:35.200 off their lights and leaving the area.
01:14:37.220 So then people started to see this.
01:14:39.840 And then what, why I think it's such a big deal is both sides of the aisle.
01:14:45.280 You had Schumer and Trump on the same side of this issue.
01:14:50.380 You had governor Murphy, a Democrat and governor Christie, both asking for more information.
01:14:56.840 So when you have both sides saying there's not enough information, United States senators
01:15:02.700 were going out with local police because they couldn't get information from the federal government.
01:15:08.760 So then what happened?
01:15:10.400 All of a sudden there were these private briefings and all of a sudden it started to change.
01:15:15.260 They said, well, it's not a threat, but they still didn't release any other information.
01:15:20.720 So I think slowly the federal government is privately giving information to elected officials to try
01:15:28.160 to calm down the public.
01:15:30.220 But that doesn't answer why we see in New Jersey over military bases, over reservoirs, and even
01:15:38.100 over governor Christie's house, large drones.
01:15:41.260 And we see what we see.
01:15:44.180 So I think what happened here is they try to tap all this down and it backfired on the
01:15:50.000 Biden administration.
01:15:51.640 So any clue?
01:15:54.520 Is it us?
01:15:56.560 Is it the Pentagon?
01:15:58.600 Is it?
01:15:59.040 What is it?
01:15:59.900 Any clue?
01:16:00.820 It's not.
01:16:01.380 It's definitely not Martians.
01:16:03.260 Okay.
01:16:03.640 Because they never land in Jersey.
01:16:05.720 I'll tell you that.
01:16:06.360 It's so expensive here.
01:16:08.040 They're going down the floor.
01:16:09.260 I can tell you that.
01:16:10.140 But we know it's not, it's not outer space people.
01:16:13.320 Right.
01:16:13.640 It may be some spaced out people.
01:16:16.240 So here's, here's what we're left with.
01:16:18.880 I've heard three or four theories and you, everyone calls me and says, you know, I heard
01:16:23.660 this, et cetera.
01:16:24.680 Everything from some sort of mapping of the heat on the earth in order to do security
01:16:30.880 from radioactivity.
01:16:32.600 Somebody sent me something yesterday that said the amount of radioactivity in the New
01:16:37.780 York, New Jersey area is raised, has been increased.
01:16:41.320 They wanted to send me a website on that.
01:16:43.560 So I don't know, but I do know something.
01:16:46.380 The department of defense has to know.
01:16:49.480 And if they don't know, we're in big trouble.
01:16:52.440 So, you know, in the UK, they're blaming the drones just started showing up over the air
01:16:57.940 bases over there.
01:16:58.760 And in the UK, they're blaming Russia.
01:17:01.700 I mean, well, it's not good.
01:17:04.660 You're telling me, okay, in 2024, that the department of defense doesn't know what an SUV size drone
01:17:14.840 is doing flying over military bases.
01:17:18.680 Now, if that's, if that's the case, then we better look closely at our military.
01:17:24.940 So we did.
01:17:25.880 I mean, this administration is the one that led a balloon that they said had nothing.
01:17:31.440 It was not sending information back, go across the United States and denied it half the time
01:17:36.940 and then said it was nothing until they shot it down after it had transmitted all of its
01:17:41.540 information.
01:17:43.040 I mean, and how about the president elect saying the government knows, but isn't telling us
01:17:50.740 now, I would suspect that the president elect has sufficient information to make that statement.
01:17:58.780 Otherwise, I doubt he would have said that.
01:18:01.300 Well, he said, he said that in response to a question in your president elect briefings
01:18:09.780 on national security, has they said anything?
01:18:12.720 And that was his response.
01:18:14.320 So it would lead you to believe he's telling you without telling you what he got briefed.
01:18:20.520 The bottom line is when you have this many millions of people, wherever I go in New Jersey,
01:18:25.760 the first question is, hey, Senator, can you please tell me?
01:18:29.260 Don't worry.
01:18:29.880 I won't tell anybody.
01:18:32.080 You know, my rule is if you want to keep a secret, don't tell anybody.
01:18:35.820 Right.
01:18:36.240 So all I got to tell you is that we don't have enough information to calm down the public.
01:18:43.120 So just give us enough information to calm down the public.
01:18:47.100 That's all we're asking for.
01:18:48.480 You said that they are too fearful of the public reaction.
01:18:53.440 What did you mean by that?
01:18:55.740 Well, I figured that the Defense Department must know what these drones are doing.
01:19:01.020 So either if they don't know, that's a problem.
01:19:04.220 But if they do know, they must figure that they cannot release this information because
01:19:10.320 it's such a top secret plan or it would create fear in the public.
01:19:16.680 It's got to be one or the other.
01:19:19.460 And my guess is they have to know based on my confidence in the military.
01:19:24.360 So therefore, they want to release it because they don't want to either scare the public
01:19:29.260 or provide secret information to our adversaries.
01:19:34.160 What what other explanation is now?
01:19:37.000 The explanation is, well, it's just a bunch of planes and, you know, it's birds with lights
01:19:43.320 on them.
01:19:44.120 You know, that's not the smart people who've seen these drones.
01:19:48.880 This is not somebody who saw Bigfoot and comes back from the woods.
01:19:53.240 I saw Bigfoot, you know, whether it be Governor Christie or or senators who live down the
01:20:00.400 shore, they've seen it.
01:20:02.520 So I don't know how you tell them it was just a plane, especially when it's hovering over
01:20:08.220 somebody's house.
01:20:09.460 Right, right.
01:20:10.840 Senator, I'd love to have you back because I know that you were a assistant professor
01:20:15.200 at I think it was Ryder University.
01:20:17.560 He won the inspirational professor of the year.
01:20:21.220 And you have also you also hold the title of funniest lawyer in New Jersey.
01:20:28.760 And that was you think that was easy to win.
01:20:32.380 Let me tell you from the competition, the competition, the only competition that's not as hard is the
01:20:39.020 funniest accountant in New Jersey.
01:20:40.660 Now, that competition, anybody can win.
01:20:43.920 But I beat the pants off nine other finalists in the funniest lawyer in New Jersey.
01:20:48.740 And people pay to come see a lawyer tell jokes.
01:20:52.040 That's how crazy the public is.
01:20:54.060 Thank you so much, Senator.
01:20:55.360 I appreciate it.
01:20:56.180 God bless you.
01:20:57.300 Merry Christmas.
01:20:58.060 You bet.
01:20:58.620 Bye-bye.
01:20:58.820 Let me tell you about American financing.
01:21:02.020 It is so important, especially since we're in the middle of the most expensive time of the year.
01:21:07.460 When it comes to debt, credit cards are a slippery slope.
01:21:11.460 And if you've had to use them and you are not alone.
01:21:14.120 So many people have had to use their credit cards just to be able to make ends meet.
01:21:17.880 Now, if you're dealing with the debts right now and high interest rates on those credit cards,
01:21:23.440 for two decades, American financing has been helping people just like you get to where you need to be.
01:21:28.500 And where you need to be is out of debt.
01:21:30.580 And being able to put some of this debt behind you and the high interest debt way in your rearview mirror.
01:21:36.880 This is what American financing does for a living.
01:21:40.320 They work for you.
01:21:41.460 They don't work for the banks.
01:21:42.920 They don't work for the credit card companies.
01:21:44.680 They are interested in accomplishing your goals.
01:21:48.160 And you'll be surprised at how many options they have.
01:21:50.860 So it's American financing.
01:21:52.080 I want you to go to Americanfinancing.net.
01:21:54.200 That's Americanfinancing.net.

01:22:16.980 Sit tight, boys and girls.
01:22:18.740 We'll be right back after these messages.
01:22:31.720 Let's say you have dozens of drones just hovering over your house every single day.
01:22:36.540 And you're thinking to yourself, maybe I, you know, maybe, I don't know.
01:22:39.720 That sounds like a threat to my home.
01:22:42.220 There are lots of threats to your home.
01:22:43.900 Not all of them as visible as drones in New Jersey.
01:22:47.080 Some of them are just, you know, home title theft.
01:22:49.740 They can take your title, not necessarily your whole home or just your title.
01:22:53.100 It's enough for fraudsters to be able to take advantage of you financially.
01:22:56.740 These are people, a lot of times, they're, you know, cyber scammers from overseas.
01:23:00.260 They get control of your title.
01:23:01.840 They start taking loans at shady banks out.
01:23:03.980 You start getting the bills.
01:23:05.640 You start dealing with the eviction notices.
01:23:08.100 Not a fun place to live.
01:23:08.420 That's when the drones come.
01:23:09.520 That's when the drones come.
01:23:11.200 It's the sheriff's department.
01:23:12.700 Come on with your hands up.
01:23:14.520 That's when that happens.
01:23:15.460 Yes, that's right around the corner.
01:23:17.000 Yep.
01:23:17.520 And then they might just lift the whole home away from you at that point.
01:23:20.420 You don't want that to happen to you.
01:23:21.980 So use home title lock.
01:23:23.340 If no one's watching out for your title, then it's just a matter of time until you're next.

01:24:09.360 I saw a great tweet from Sean Davis yesterday.
01:24:12.580 Great tweet.
01:24:13.540 He said, I know what's going on with the drones.
01:24:16.820 And I think he is mathematically 100% correct.
01:24:22.340 I don't think there's a way.
01:24:25.060 I just don't think there's a way this is not the answer.
01:24:27.960 He said, it's not only the answer on the drones, but it's almost the answer for almost every.
01:24:33.800 He said, it's the Rosetta Stone of answers.
01:24:36.960 You'll be able to decode every major news event with this just the secret key to unlock.
01:24:45.080 Okay.
01:24:45.440 He says, it's just one sentence.
01:24:49.860 You ready?
01:24:50.880 Yeah.
01:24:51.480 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:24:56.380 And he said, no, no, try it out.
01:24:58.540 Try it out.
01:24:59.720 Who killed JFK?
01:25:01.940 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:25:06.060 How did the cartels manage to get so many drugs in and much cash out of the U.S.?
01:25:11.440 The U.S. government's behind it and lying to you to cover it up.
01:25:14.580 Why were all those women and children at Waco burned to death?
01:25:17.500 Well, the U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:25:20.960 Why?
01:25:21.340 Who let the 9-11 hijackers into the U.S.?
01:25:25.400 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:25:28.480 Why were there no WMDs in Iraq?
01:25:30.820 Well, the U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you now to cover it up.
01:25:34.920 What caused the housing market to collapse and the massive devaluation of the U.S. dollar?
01:25:39.380 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you now to cover it up.
01:25:43.180 What happened to the Russian collusion stuff in 2016?

01:25:50.120 Where did COVID originate?
01:25:51.900 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:25:56.720 Why was the discussion of Hunter Biden's laptop banned in 2020?
01:26:01.620 The U.S. government was behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:26:08.380 Who blew up the Nord Stream pipeline?
01:26:11.320 Well, the U.S. government was behind it and lying to you to cover it up.
01:26:14.800 What's going on with all those drones over New Jersey and everywhere?
01:26:19.120 Say it with me.
01:26:20.360 The U.S. government is behind it and is lying to you to cover it up.
01:26:26.000 Does explain a lot.
01:26:27.080 Yeah.
01:26:27.380 He said 9 out of 10 times, that is the right answer.
01:26:30.340 He said maybe even 99 out of 100 times, that is the answer.
01:26:35.300 And I think he is correct.
01:26:37.600 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:27:22.180 January 20th, I'm going to feel pretty darn good.

01:28:42.960 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:28:48.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:51.960 Yeah, thank you very much.
01:28:53.420 Hello, my name is Glenn Beck.
01:28:55.080 Stuber here is here before he goes on vacation.
01:28:57.820 Some of us are still going to work for a while, Stu.
01:29:00.060 It's not Christmas yet, but don't worry about it.
01:29:02.560 It is for me.
01:29:03.640 Yeah.
01:29:04.140 So I want to take you up to almost where Santa lives in a place just as imaginative as Santa land.
01:29:15.100 It's called Canada, where Justin Trudeau has been just a military jacket away from being more like his dad in Cuba.
01:29:23.500 But it's falling apart in Canada.
01:29:27.260 His finance minister, which is the number two position, walked out.
01:29:32.140 He said, you know, I want to do another role for you.
01:29:35.260 And she said, the only viable thing is if I leave the cabinet.
01:29:39.720 This is the woman who shut down all of the social media gift-giving services and was freezing people's bank accounts during the trucker strike.
01:29:54.680 She's also the one that does all of the trade deals between the United States and Canada.
01:30:00.400 Gee, I wonder what she's worried about.
01:30:02.900 Meanwhile, Justin Trudeau has just been given away all kinds of money.
01:30:07.360 He's got a sales tax holiday for Canadians and sending checks to Canadians that need it right now during the Christmas season.
01:30:17.240 And he's also imposed some, you know, some other things that people aren't real, real, real happy about.
01:30:25.540 Is his reign over or is he going to be elected to a fourth term?
01:30:31.260 I made a prediction today and I know nothing about Canada.
01:30:34.720 Today may be his last day.
01:30:36.400 It's that close.
01:30:38.700 We'll talk to a Canadian, a guy who knows, Ezra Levant, in 60 seconds.
01:30:44.440 First, the people who founded this country understood the best way to exist in a society was to strive toward the balance of freedom and moral responsibility.
01:30:53.960 Or, you know, hire the half-son of Fidel Castro, one of the two.
01:30:59.860 I like to use my freedom wisely.
01:31:02.080 I try not to take it for granted.
01:31:03.580 And I do business with people who feel the same way.
01:31:06.220 And that's why I urge you to join Patriot Mobile.
01:31:09.840 They're America's only Christian conservative mobile phone company.
01:31:13.580 They have a passion to defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedoms.

01:31:52.160 Remember, promo code FRIDAY.
01:31:53.840 A hero, really, of the Canadian people, Ezra Levant.
01:32:02.120 Hello, Ezra.
01:32:03.840 Glenn, it's great to talk with you today.
01:32:06.460 I heard your introduction about Chrystia Freeland, the deputy prime minister and finance minister.
01:32:12.080 She's much more than that.
01:32:13.260 It would be like Dick Cheney was to George Bush Jr.
01:32:17.540 I mean, the everything fixer.
01:32:20.540 Totally involved in all the files.
01:32:22.260 That was Chrystia Freeland.
01:32:23.840 And she quit yesterday, and she timed her leaving to detonate the morning she was supposed to deliver a mini budget.
01:32:32.520 So that whole thing was thrown into a mess.
01:32:37.800 And basically, didn't she say that because we're spending all of our money and we have to stop because we might get into a trade war with America?
01:32:47.380 She did.
01:32:48.220 And she, in her resignation letter, which she published, she accused Trudeau of being a narcissist, of being in it for himself.
01:32:56.040 No.
01:32:56.320 She didn't use the word narcissist, but she said, we've got to think about more than just ourselves.
01:32:59.960 We've got to think about the country.
01:33:01.340 She accused him of, quote, political gimmicks.
01:33:03.880 And the thing is, she was his right-hand woman since the very beginning.
01:33:10.280 And I want to tell you one more thing about Chrystia Freeland.
01:33:13.080 She is on the board of trustees of the World Economic Forum.
01:33:17.880 And what was her job right before she became a member of parliament to join Trudeau?
01:33:23.720 You're not going to believe me.
01:33:25.400 She was the authorized biographer of George Soros.
01:33:30.460 Oh, my gosh.
01:33:31.200 So the deputy prime minister and finance minister, but really the everything minister of Canada.
01:33:36.880 She was, like I say, like Dick Cheney to George Bush.
01:33:40.620 She was the right-hand man on every file.
01:33:43.240 So was she more of the architect of this, or is Trudeau capable of doing – what I'm asking is, is Trudeau more of a Biden, and she's more of an Obama, or is it Dick Cheney and George W. Bush?
01:34:01.360 Trudeau loves the sizzle of being prime minister.
01:34:05.380 He loves the adulation.
01:34:07.140 It's hard to come by.
01:34:08.020 So, for example, he went to the recent Taylor Swift concert, and he exchanged friendship bracelets with teenage girls.
01:34:15.640 That's his market these days.
01:34:17.040 Everyone else shouts at him.
01:34:19.100 So he was never a policy guy.
01:34:22.440 He would leave that to the grown-ups.
01:34:24.620 And Chrystia Freeland and George Soros would fill that void.
01:34:27.460 And I'm not just saying George Soros is a throwaway line.
01:34:29.820 A few years ago, Canada signed a contract with the Open Societies Foundation to draft our refugee policy.
01:34:38.660 So this is not a rumor.
01:34:39.920 Oh, my gosh.
01:34:41.180 We literally outsourced.
01:34:42.140 So Chrystia Freeland departing is an enormous blow.
01:34:46.060 But, look, Canadians can hardly wait to get rid of Trudeau.
01:34:49.260 I don't want to sound overconfident, but the conservative opposition leader, his name is Pierre Polyev, he's excellent.
01:34:56.920 He's way out ahead in the polls.
01:35:00.020 Remember, we have a multi-party system, so there's about five parties in Parliament.
01:35:04.260 The conservatives are at 43.
01:35:05.840 Now, I know that might sound low in an American two-party system, but when you've got five parties, 43% means you're going to have a massive victory.
01:35:13.660 And last night, after Chrystia Freeland detonated Trudeau and quit, there was a pollster named Abacus Data that went into the field immediately.
01:35:22.880 And his results were just being posted.
01:35:24.960 Only 11% of Canadians approve of Trudeau.
01:35:30.080 11%.
01:35:31.340 It's going to be a massacre.
01:35:32.820 Last factoid, here's a little data point.
01:35:34.880 This is happy news.
01:35:36.440 This is really happy news.
01:35:37.680 While everyone was focused on the intrigues in Ottawa, there was a special election in the province of British Columbia for one of these members of Parliament.
01:35:46.840 And the conservatives, led by Pierre Polyev, got 66% in the local district.
01:35:53.020 In Vancouver, B.C.?
01:35:54.880 Not in Vancouver proper, but nearby.
01:35:58.760 So in B.C., which is sort of like Washington State, it's a little bit hippie, it's a little bit eco.
01:36:03.540 A little bit?
01:36:04.220 A little bit.
01:36:04.980 Yeah.
01:36:06.820 But then I've got to tell you, people of every background, according to the pollsters, men and women, young and old, and minorities, they all want Trudeau gone.
01:36:17.040 Which is so interesting, because he came to power as the woke guy.
01:36:20.760 Oh, yeah.
01:36:21.180 Who, you know, I'm a male feminist, he said, etc.
01:36:25.200 Canadians are finally done with him.
01:36:27.960 We just need that moment where we get to go to vote.
01:36:30.580 And Ezra, I hate to simplify your country's politics in this way, but Glenn, Polyev is the guy, the Apple guy.
01:36:38.540 Remember the viral video where he was just sitting there answering questions?
01:36:41.400 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:36:41.880 The Apple guy's eating the Apple?
01:36:42.800 Oh, I love that guy.
01:36:44.080 Yes!
01:36:44.600 I think everybody in America that saw that video loves this guy.
01:36:47.480 Oh, I love that guy.
01:36:49.640 That Apple-eating thing, give me 30 seconds on that.
01:36:53.060 You know, he was answering questions from a left-wing journalist while casually eating an apple.
01:36:57.480 And whenever, the journalist would say things like, well, aren't you, people say you're like Trump.
01:37:04.020 And he would say, what people?
01:37:05.660 And what did they say?
01:37:07.040 And he just did this a bunch of times, proving that the journalist was just, you know, taking cheap shots.
01:37:13.900 And when he said people say, he was just saying, I say, it was masterful.
01:37:18.880 And the reason, why is that important?
01:37:20.120 There was no real policy talked about.
01:37:21.920 The reason that was important, Glenn, is because it shows that Pierre Polyev has a Trump-like disdain for journalists.
01:37:30.620 And why is that important?
01:37:32.040 Because too many Canadian conservatives are so worried about what the media will say about them.
01:37:37.060 And they respond to the peer pressure of journalists.
01:37:40.200 They want to give journalists the answer that the journalists want.
01:37:43.300 Polyev is not afraid to look at our version of CNN in the eyes and say, you know, and attack them and insult them and poke back.
01:37:52.960 So I know that if he's elected prime minister, that he will be largely immune to the mean girls club or the media party.
01:38:00.900 And that's saying something because you had the CBC.
01:38:04.340 That's like our PBS, except that's the main.
01:38:07.820 I mean, they control the they are the CNN, NBC, ABC.
01:38:11.740 They're everything up there.
01:38:13.260 They're larger than all other media combined.
01:38:16.160 Our state broadcaster has more journalists than every other media company combined.
01:38:21.400 You can imagine how that really distorts the national conversation.
01:38:26.060 But a lot of Canadians get their info through social media, which is why Trudeau's introduced legislation that would criminalize, including with a life in prison.
01:38:37.000 There's a Trudeau has introduced a bill called C63 that has a life in prison component for, quote, hate crimes, including hate speech.
01:38:46.240 That's one of the reasons Jordan Peterson cited for moving to America.
01:38:49.880 Yeah, this bill C63.
01:38:51.960 And we're going to fight that bill if it becomes law.
01:38:54.640 But the way things are looking, I think Trudeau might not last long enough to make it into law.
01:38:59.280 So what happened?
01:39:01.920 I mean, parliamentary systems are so weird.
01:39:05.980 You can just call an election at any time, which is kind of weird.
01:39:08.900 But does he have to call for one or does he have to step down or can there be a vote of no confidence?
01:39:16.120 What happens next?
01:39:18.300 Well, he only has a minority in our parliament.
01:39:20.900 He's propped up by a hardcore socialist party called the NDP, the New Democrats.
01:39:25.660 Right.
01:39:26.320 And didn't they just come out and pretty much say, we're done with you?
01:39:30.380 No, it's trickier.
01:39:32.340 They said, we demand Trudeau resign.
01:39:35.560 Right.
01:39:35.860 And then when they said, will you vote non-confidence in him?
01:39:39.060 They refused to.
01:39:40.260 So they like to pretend they're against Trudeau.
01:39:42.540 But they have never opposed him.
01:39:45.000 So Trudeau is the master of his own destiny as long as no one has the courage to push him out.
01:39:51.360 And if there was a non-confidence vote, he could be thrown out and an election would be forced.
01:39:57.940 But I don't think his critics have the courage to do that.
01:40:01.640 I don't think they have the numbers.
01:40:03.360 And look, these polls are so awful, Glenn.
01:40:06.440 A lot of the liberals who are sick of Trudeau and worry he's tanking things,
01:40:11.080 they know they're going to lose whether the election is now or in six months.
01:40:14.180 So why not drag it out for six more months, get paid, enjoy their power, run things a little longer?
01:40:20.140 If you're a liberal MP and you know you're going to lose the next election,
01:40:23.360 why wouldn't you at least stretch it out three, six, nine months to get as much from your job as possible,
01:40:31.460 get as much money, power, influence?
01:40:33.420 Unbelievable.
01:40:33.780 I think the liberals are going to be smashed.
01:40:36.020 But Trudeau will probably, listen, he is stubborn and he's a fighter.
01:40:41.500 I've never seen him apologize.
01:40:43.380 I've never seen him quit.
01:40:44.820 He has a lot of flaws, but tenacity is not one of them.
01:40:48.900 How much of a role did the election of Donald Trump play in this?
01:40:53.880 Are you guys just right, just behind us on what's happening here in America?
01:40:58.520 That's such a great question.
01:41:00.400 In a way, a Trump tweet started the dominoes falling here.
01:41:05.080 I don't know if you remember.
01:41:05.940 I knew it.
01:41:06.280 About a month ago, Trump tweeted 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada if they don't seal their borders.
01:41:13.940 Stop the illegal drugs.
01:41:15.360 Stop illegal immigrants.
01:41:16.400 So it was, and Mexico immediately got on the phone.
01:41:20.340 Yeah, hang on just a second.
01:41:21.700 Why did Trudeau, why does Canada have such a hard time with that?
01:41:24.880 It's like, just, we need you to enforce your laws.
01:41:28.820 That's all we need.
01:41:30.580 And Pierre Pauly of the conservative leader said, look, I don't want to do those things because Donald Trump tells me to.
01:41:36.160 I want to do those things because it's in the Canadian interest.
01:41:38.980 Why would any Canadian, and Trump is worried about fentanyl coming through Canada into the States.
01:41:45.040 Well, Canadians should be worried about that too.
01:41:46.820 In fact, we are.
01:41:47.500 We've had a huge crime wave under Trudeau.
01:41:49.420 So the smart, grown-up answer is, okay, Trump is asking sort of roughly, like he's being a little bit, he's got that, you know, he's walking a big stick.
01:41:59.020 But just deal with him.
01:42:00.620 The man's a transactional dealmaker.
01:42:02.740 He's not actually asking Canadians for anything that we don't want.
01:42:05.780 Just do it.
01:42:06.820 But instead, here's, let me throw one last thing at you, Glenn.
01:42:09.400 And here's my theory of why Trudeau is fighting.
01:42:14.360 As I mentioned, Trudeau is so low in the polls, and this conservative leader is so high.
01:42:19.360 But what if Trudeau could flip it?
01:42:21.240 And instead of running against Pierre Pauly of the conservative leader, what if Trudeau would say, I'm running against Trump?
01:42:28.160 Because Trump is not that popular in Canada because the media has bashed him for 10 years.
01:42:33.620 And what if Trump puts on the tariffs?
01:42:35.280 What if Trump brings in the, oh yeah, it's even worse up here.
01:42:39.960 Yeah, I know.
01:42:40.360 It's even worse up here.
01:42:41.480 But one more move.
01:42:42.880 What if Trump actually implements the tariff on Canada?
01:42:46.700 It hurts our economy.
01:42:48.560 So now Trudeau can say, this terrible economy is not my fault.
01:42:52.900 It's Trump's fault.
01:42:54.280 Vote for me if you want to stand up to Trump.
01:42:56.480 Vote for me if you don't like Trump.
01:42:58.400 That's a great strategy.
01:43:01.660 I think Trudeau is willing to sacrifice Canada's economy.
01:43:05.960 For this desperate chance to run and win again.
01:43:09.820 That's my theory, at least.
01:43:10.780 You know what?
01:43:11.640 To me, that makes sense.
01:43:13.640 And you know what?
01:43:14.740 Honestly, to understand Donald Trump, you have to understand, he never, when he's negotiating, he never threatens.
01:43:24.000 He's never threatening.
01:43:25.840 He just makes promises.
01:43:28.300 If you do this, I'll do that.
01:43:30.860 If you do this, I'll do that.
01:43:33.920 And he will.
01:43:35.480 He will.
01:43:36.560 So he's not threatening.
01:43:37.360 He's just making promises.
01:43:38.640 Well, and why wouldn't Canada say, all right, you've got our attention, we agree we've got a border problem.
01:43:45.280 By the way, it goes both ways.
01:43:47.040 When Trump is going to deport a large number of illegal migrants, some of them will say, oh, we'd better come into Canada because there's such a soft touch.
01:43:55.140 So we have an interest in having a strong border because we don't want all the folks Trump's going to deport, including those who committed crimes.
01:44:02.740 And those who are going to self-deport.
01:44:04.660 Self-deport.
01:44:05.560 Yeah.
01:44:06.100 Yeah.
01:44:06.380 I mean, all those Haitians, they're going to want to go to Montreal, a French-speaking city, rather than go back to Haiti, wouldn't you?
01:44:12.140 So we need a strong border also.
01:44:15.020 Trudeau would rather fight with Trump for the media kudos than actually fix a problem.
01:44:20.820 It's his last desperate chance.
01:44:23.000 But you know what?
01:44:23.600 I hope Canada comes back.
01:44:25.340 And the Trump revolution is not just a political and economic one.
01:44:28.420 It's a freedom revolution, free speech, Elon Musk, RFK Jr., basically rebuking the COVID mentality.
01:44:37.780 Hopefully, some of that freedom will slosh over the border into us, Glenn.
01:44:41.480 Yeah.
01:44:42.060 One last thing, and we both have to run.
01:44:45.660 You have one in every 20 persons now selecting suicide.
01:44:52.100 And more women are electing for euthanasia than men are.
01:44:59.020 I mean, this is getting way out of control, euthanasia in Canada, isn't it?
01:45:03.980 And our Veterans Affairs Department is suggesting euthanasia for soldiers who have PTSD.
01:45:11.360 If you say you're depressed, they will literally use that as a reason to give.
01:45:16.860 They call it up here MAID, medical assistance in dying.
01:45:19.500 It's the new word for euthanasia.
01:45:20.880 But Canada is now ahead of the Netherlands for this.
01:45:24.780 And partly, it's socialized medicine.
01:45:26.280 Because if you kill someone, they're not going to cost $100,000 a year on intensive care.
01:45:31.360 Part of it is also the war on the concept of life.
01:45:34.240 Trudeau is an absolutist for abortion.
01:45:36.880 And this is an extension of sort of a eugenics approach.
01:45:40.600 It's dark days for those who value life in Canada, Glenn.
01:45:43.880 I hope your theory is absolutely wrong.
01:45:46.740 But I've watched you long enough to know your theory probably is right.
01:45:50.880 I hope you're wrong, though.
01:45:52.080 Thank you so much, Ezra.
01:45:53.960 Thanks, Glenn.
01:45:54.620 Bye-bye.
01:45:55.000 Bye-bye.
01:45:56.280 That guy is one of the bravest people up in Canada that I know.
01:46:01.640 All right, Glenn, a sports question that I think even you can answer.
01:46:05.580 Nikola Jokic, three-time MVP.
01:46:08.500 He's playing a game on Christmas Day.
01:46:10.120 Will he score more or less than 0.5 points?
01:46:16.140 I'm going to go out on a limb and say more.
01:46:19.080 Wow, you nailed it.
01:46:20.460 Yeah, thank you.
01:46:20.980 Wow, good job.

01:47:36.280 And this is going to fester.
01:47:37.520 Okay.
01:47:38.040 Unless we talk it out soon.
01:47:39.040 Oh, no.
01:47:39.620 Yeah.
01:47:40.500 I have a real bone to pick with you.
01:47:42.140 Really?
01:47:42.520 Yeah.
01:47:43.000 Yeah.
01:47:44.200 For years, you've been making fun of me with sports.
01:47:46.400 Okay?
01:47:46.660 Yes.
01:47:46.840 Right?
01:47:47.140 Yes.
01:47:47.420 And so, yesterday, I told a sports joke, and you didn't laugh or react to it.
01:47:55.000 Really?
01:47:55.500 And I spent all day going, I think I blew the sports joke.
01:47:59.220 I think I don't, I got, somehow or another, I got it wrong.
01:48:01.960 So, I went to Jill Savage at the Blaze.
01:48:03.900 Okay.
01:48:04.180 She knows sports.
01:48:04.820 She's a sports reporter.
01:48:05.660 And I said, hey, do you understand this joke?
01:48:09.020 Did I get it right?
01:48:10.060 Or where was I wrong?
01:48:11.480 Okay.
01:48:11.700 Because you said yesterday, maybe the drones are just trying to make the New Jersey football
01:48:21.320 teams stink.
01:48:23.060 New York, New Jersey football teams just really bad.
01:48:25.840 And I said, they hover over the Meadowlands.
01:48:27.140 Yeah.
01:48:27.160 They don't need to.
01:48:28.380 The general manager has already done that.
01:48:32.340 Yeah.
01:48:32.800 I think that's a good.
01:48:34.580 It's solid.
01:48:35.220 I mean, it's not hysterical, but I mean, I wanted some points on it.
01:48:38.460 I got no points on it.
01:48:39.680 I appreciate it.
01:48:40.220 For me, that's a huge deal.
01:48:42.380 That was, that's very good, Glenn.
01:48:43.900 Thank you.
01:48:44.480 I'm sorry I didn't acknowledge it more of the time.
01:48:45.660 That's what I needed.
01:48:45.700 I needed you to just say, good job.
01:48:48.240 You know, that was very good, and you're doing a great job.
01:48:53.180 It's funny because, you know what?
01:48:55.040 I mean, I think this is even a bigger compliment.
01:48:56.800 I didn't even notice that you made a, like, you just made a comment in a normal flow of conversation
01:49:03.100 as if you were a normal male.
01:49:05.260 Right.
01:49:05.740 Wait.
01:49:06.420 Like, that's impressive.
01:49:07.780 How did this go awry all of a sudden?
01:49:08.960 No, I mean, it's a compliment.
01:49:10.500 Normally, I would call out, wow, you did it, but I didn't even do that because maybe
01:49:15.240 you're making so much progress.
01:49:16.520 Wow.
01:49:17.000 Merry Christmas.
01:49:17.920 Merry Christmas, Stu.
01:49:19.140 Happy New Year.
01:49:19.680 Yeah.
01:49:20.500 That was great.
01:49:21.560 That's so great.
01:49:22.380 Very proud of you.
01:49:23.920 It's almost like you with your daughter.
01:49:25.080 Your daughter's going to play, you know, in Nashville at the Grand Ole Opry.
01:49:30.400 Yeah.
01:49:30.640 And you made a somewhat comprehensible sports joke.
01:49:34.060 Yeah.
01:49:35.660 Do I get a cookie?
01:49:38.780 Glenn Beck.
01:49:41.380 All right.
01:49:41.680 If you have children or even grandchildren, I want you to think about something.
01:49:44.580 Right now, you and I are hopefully about to walk into a brighter, saner economy.
01:49:49.340 That's God willing.
01:49:50.160 The next four, even eight or 12 years hold a lot of promise economically, but we are on
01:49:56.160 a knife's edge.
01:49:57.960 Down the road somewhere, we are going to have to pay a heavy price.
01:50:02.940 Hopefully, we can avoid it, but nobody ever has.
01:50:06.880 Your economic future, your kid's future, every dime that you have saved for your future
01:50:14.400 is up for grabs from the BRICS nations because they are going to try to get the world to take
01:50:22.740 a gold-backed currency.
01:50:24.360 Theirs, this is what they've been building for for four years since we, you know, went
01:50:28.760 against Russia.
01:50:29.480 Uh, Lear Capital has the answer, and it is gold and silver.
01:50:33.580 And I urge you, please, to protect what you have by putting a portion of it in gold and
01:50:39.800 silver.
01:50:40.700 800-957-GOLD.
01:50:42.680 Call Lear Capital right now.
01:50:44.740 800-957-GOLD.
01:50:47.460 Uh, call them now.
01:50:49.940 Thank Glenn for his comprehensible sports jokes by going to glennbeckchristmas.com.
01:50:56.420 Get your Christmas presents.
01:50:57.360 glennbeckchristmas.com.
01:50:59.480 Okay.
01:51:25.160 Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up.
01:51:27.420 Let's go.
01:51:28.660 So, Donald Trump, who I, you know, I don't ever hear anybody call him President-elect
01:51:33.500 Trump.
01:51:33.940 Do you hear that?
01:51:34.460 Because I just hear President Trump because I think he is president now.
01:51:37.520 You know what I mean?
01:51:38.160 I don't know what's happened to Joe Biden.
01:51:40.900 Uh, you know, well, I do.
01:51:42.700 He's, he's ridden off in the sunset and Kamala's nowhere to be found either.
01:51:47.920 Um, boy, the 25th Amendment sure would have made a huge difference, wouldn't it?
01:51:54.640 Uh, there for a reason.
01:51:55.660 It's there for a reason.
01:51:57.180 Um, because I really don't know who the president is, but he held a press conference, uh, yesterday
01:52:02.620 and answered some, uh, some questions.
01:52:04.680 Here he is on preemptively striking Iran.
01:52:07.860 Uh, this is cut 10.
01:52:09.700 Are you, are you entertaining the idea of preemptive strikes against Iran's nuclear
01:52:15.400 facilities?
01:52:16.280 Against who?
01:52:16.940 Against Iran's nuclear facilities.
01:52:18.660 Well, I can't tell you that.
01:52:19.960 I mean, I mean, it's a wonderful question, but how could I, am I going to do preemptive
01:52:25.140 strikes?
01:52:25.660 Why would I say that?
01:52:26.820 Can you imagine if I said yes or no?
01:52:30.060 You'd say, that was strange that he answered that question.
01:52:33.160 Am I going to do preemptive strikes on Iran?
01:52:36.980 Is that a serious question?
01:52:38.620 How could I answer a question like that?
01:52:40.360 Would you be in support of Israeli strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities?
01:52:47.540 How could I tell you a thing like that now?
01:52:49.740 It's just so, you, you don't talk about that before.
01:52:52.860 Okay.
01:52:53.660 So I think we know the answer.
01:52:55.300 Uh, to the second question.
01:52:56.400 That's actually a really good answer.
01:52:58.620 Great answer.
01:52:59.220 That's exactly how that, that question should be answered.
01:53:01.120 He's learned to be the president of the United States, but I think he misunderstood the question.
01:53:05.760 Maybe, maybe he misunderstood the question.
01:53:07.820 Maybe the question was when I say preemptively, I mean, are you going to order the military to
01:53:14.100 do that before January 20th?
01:53:16.280 We all believe you're the president of the United States right now.
01:53:21.260 Never seen it before, but, uh, uh, here he is on Biden selling off parts of the border wall.
01:53:28.620 But now, uh, we had, uh, we ordered an additional 200 miles of wall.
01:53:34.400 It's very expensive.
01:53:35.560 And now it's about double the price of what it would have been six years ago.
01:53:40.660 And the administration is trying to sell it for five cents on the dollar, knowing that
01:53:46.440 we're getting ready to put it up.
01:53:47.940 And what they're doing is really an act.
01:53:51.260 It's almost, it's almost a criminal act.
01:53:54.000 They know we're going to use it.
01:53:55.820 And if we don't have it, we're going to have to rebuild it.
01:53:59.400 And it'll cost double what it cost years ago.
01:54:02.420 And that's hundreds of millions of dollars because you're talking about a lot of, a lot of wall.
01:54:08.240 I built much more than I said I was going to build.
01:54:11.060 But then after it was built, I said, you know, we can do some more because it's sort of like
01:54:16.700 water people flow through and that will pretty much really take care of it.
01:54:21.040 And what happened is they just, as you see, they're trying to sell it for five cents of
01:54:25.760 the dollar.
01:54:26.420 And that's really, uh, that has nothing to do with a smooth trend transition.
01:54:32.320 That has to do with, uh, people really trying to stop our nation.
01:54:36.900 And all it means really is that we're going to spend hundreds of millions of dollars more,
01:54:42.640 not even talking about the time.
01:54:45.500 Time would be pretty long, but we'll spend hundreds of millions of dollars more
01:54:50.340 on building the same wall that we already have.
01:54:54.060 I mean, it is that it, I think he's right.
01:54:56.400 It is almost criminal because everyone knows we're going to do that.
01:55:00.800 That doesn't screw Donald Trump.
01:55:02.020 It screws us.
01:55:02.760 Screws us.
01:55:03.120 We're going to have to pay for it.
01:55:04.000 That is kind of what Ezra was talking about with, um, Justin Trudeau.
01:55:09.180 You know, if I can't have you, no one will, you know, I'll take it at the expense of the
01:55:13.800 Canadian people.
01:55:14.760 It's like a very expensive pulling the W's off the keyboard.
01:55:18.680 Yeah.
01:55:19.320 Yeah.
01:55:19.820 Right.
01:55:20.080 Like to just try to say, to screw him over in some way.
01:55:23.620 Yeah.
01:55:23.740 But the W's on the keyboards.
01:55:25.420 That was more just petty.
01:55:26.700 Petty.
01:55:26.920 This is, first of all, a real policy.
01:55:29.000 And they look, they do want the opposite policy, even though they did not.
01:55:32.500 It's oddly, they ran commercial after commercial saying they wanted the wall, which was odd.
01:55:36.040 Yeah, I know.
01:55:36.500 Did you see though that they, they, um, we're trying to tie the hands of the president
01:55:42.220 and trying to change our nuclear policy so the president couldn't do a nuclear strike, couldn't order a nuclear strike?
01:55:50.940 What the hell?
01:55:52.200 You, what are you, what are you, what are you even talking about?
01:55:55.200 You can't change the role of the president.
01:55:58.540 I think one thing we need to remember here is, yes, Donald Trump won the election.
01:56:04.080 And yes, right now he is in this, I think for the first time ever, like a honeymoon-ish type of period where it seems like everyone's kind of being nice to him and people are.
01:56:13.500 Well, that'll end.
01:56:14.380 He's, by the way, for the first time ever.
01:56:16.600 Yeah.
01:56:17.040 Above water in approval rating.
01:56:19.260 Really?
01:56:19.580 He's over 50% in approval rating for the first time since the beginning, 2015, going all the way back to his beginning of his run.
01:56:25.800 But that being said, they're not giving up.
01:56:29.160 This is not, this is, we should not be convinced that, oh, well now, you know, people seem to be like taking his ideas a little more seriously.
01:56:37.700 And if things work out, they'll be okay.
01:56:40.040 They will not.
01:56:40.860 They're just, they're just doing this stuff in other ways and they are planning how they're going to push back against him in the future.
01:56:47.420 And one of the reasons why they're not pushing back now is because this is the leader, cut 19.
01:56:53.300 This is their leader right now, our leader.
01:56:55.820 The trauma of that day and its aftermath is still raw and ongoing.
01:56:59.820 Talk about October 7th.
01:57:00.800 I've gotten over 100 hostages out.
01:57:03.300 I will not stop until I get every single one of them home.
01:57:07.260 Joe Biden got 100 hostages out of Gaza?
01:57:11.420 What?
01:57:13.320 Hmm.
01:57:13.820 What?
01:57:14.800 Did you see that the, what is it, second quarter revision now or maybe third quarter revision shows that it was all loss?
01:57:25.060 They said there was 800,000 jobs created in that quarter.
01:57:28.800 It's in the negative now on the revision.
01:57:31.840 It means everything that they said to you was a lie.
01:57:36.660 Everything that they have said to you has been a lie.
01:57:39.240 But that's the guy and he's soon coming out of office and, you know, who's going to, who's going to replace him as the leader?
01:57:49.420 I can guarantee you somebody who believes in all of those ideas and is not going to sit down.
01:57:55.960 However, the people have changed.
01:57:59.180 Cut 27.
01:58:00.100 Listen to this.
01:58:00.740 This is the, this is the guy who said he, he held up the guy who shot the CEO and said, in fact, I think we should make playing cards.
01:58:10.700 And he made wanted CEO playing cards.
01:58:14.400 Listen to this.
01:58:15.420 Well, the cops showed up at my door this morning.
01:58:17.820 I guess making CEO most wanted playing cards gets you noticed.
01:58:23.600 The New York Post front page today, guys.
01:58:27.260 Front page for this deck.
01:58:29.000 But don't worry.
01:58:31.160 I'm all good on the, on the police side of things for now.
01:58:35.100 But the, the deck is still live for pre-order.
01:58:38.740 So go grab some for you and your friends.
01:58:41.660 Also, you'll notice that my stock is completely like depleted.
01:58:46.640 I'm going to update it so you guys can like get some stuff.
01:58:49.860 So here's the thing that's selling with Marxists and revolutionaries, but it's not selling with the American people.
01:58:57.360 And this FBI felt they needed to go and talk to that guy.
01:59:03.460 Now he has a right to do stupid things.
01:59:06.340 But this FBI decided things are changing.
01:59:10.900 I don't know if that would have been investigated three years ago.
01:59:13.400 I don't know if they would have said anything about him at all.
01:59:17.200 They would have said, you know, who's really bad.
01:59:19.860 Oh, those parents at the school board meetings.
01:59:22.000 Those are the really bad ones.
01:59:24.480 All right.
01:59:24.980 Let me give you two more things.
01:59:27.280 First of all, there is a play on Broadway and I'm only, this is worth the explanation.
01:59:34.100 Trust me.
01:59:34.600 It'll take 38 seconds to give you the explanation.
01:59:38.960 This is, I guess, the actor, actress, I guess actor is all things maybe.
01:59:43.900 Justin David Sullivan, his pronouns is he, she, they.
01:59:53.180 Oh, perfect.
01:59:54.160 And he's explaining, or he, she, they is explaining his, her, their role in this Broadway play.
02:00:02.760 And Juliette.
02:00:04.040 I'm not a girl, don't tell me what you believe.
02:00:10.320 I'm just trying to find a woman in me.
02:00:14.940 Hi, I'm Justin David Sullivan.
02:00:17.040 I use the pronouns he, she, and they.
02:00:18.940 And I play Juliette's best friend, May.
02:00:21.440 While I'm in between.
02:00:25.300 May goes on a journey of self-discovery, finds love, and explores their gender identity.
02:00:32.020 I am fiercely proud that there are characters in this show that are in conversation with
02:00:36.800 queer representation and what it means to find love in a way that perhaps is often seen
02:00:41.560 as, as unconventional.
02:00:43.020 Okay.
02:00:43.500 So that's the director there at the end.
02:00:45.040 And he said that's their, their goal is to explore these ideas and to get them out in
02:00:50.580 the public, which I think that defines all of Broadway.
02:00:53.420 Does it not?
02:00:55.040 Yes.
02:00:55.600 At some point it's like all of Broadway.
02:00:57.540 You're just repeating the thing that they've been doing constantly for years.
02:01:02.020 Now, the reason why I bring this up is because one of our Supreme Court justices, Ketanji
02:01:12.360 Brown.
02:01:13.340 Jackson.
02:01:14.360 Yeah, whatever.
02:01:16.420 You have too many names and they're all, they're all last names.
02:01:19.660 They can all be last names.
02:01:21.360 Ketanji could be a last name.
02:01:22.620 Brown could be a last name.
02:01:23.660 Jackson could be a last name.
02:01:25.180 Shockingly.
02:01:25.660 And Jackson could be a first name.
02:01:26.780 They could all be first names as well.
02:01:28.180 Uh, anyway, so you're lucky.
02:01:30.220 I got two out of the three anyway.
02:01:32.080 Uh, so she, when she went to Harvard, she said, I hope someday I can be, this is what
02:01:37.880 she actually said when she was in, in school.
02:01:40.600 I hope to be the first Supreme Court justice to appear on Broadway.
02:01:48.440 Well, it's this show that made it happen.
02:01:52.220 And here's a clip of her one line.
02:01:55.980 Female empowerment.
02:02:03.100 Sick.
02:02:03.740 Welcome to the first day of rehearsal.
02:02:07.660 She did great on that.
02:02:08.360 Well, that was it.
02:02:08.960 That was great.
02:02:09.440 Now, if you are in that play with that intent, shouldn't you recuse yourself from all LGBTQ
02:02:20.640 uh, uh, judgments?
02:02:27.220 I'm fine with her doing that.
02:02:28.760 I mean, I don't know.
02:02:29.620 She's in a play.
02:02:30.460 I don't think necessarily all, an entire category of litigation would be.
02:02:35.360 Any of it?
02:02:37.020 Any of it?
02:02:37.800 I mean.
02:02:38.260 It had to do with this play.
02:02:40.280 I mean, you know.
02:02:40.840 I know, but that's what they would say.
02:02:42.640 Oh, of course.
02:02:43.380 If Clarence Thomas was in this, they would say he's, A, he should recuse himself from life.
02:02:48.660 Right.
02:02:49.080 Okay.
02:02:49.640 They're there already.
02:02:50.040 They're trying to do that.
02:02:51.060 They did that with Kavanaugh, too.
02:02:52.020 Right.
02:02:52.840 And now, you know, they would be saying, he's got to, why, why, why don't we suggest the
02:02:58.920 same things?
02:03:00.460 I mean, I'm just suggesting, I'm not saying that I'm making a good case for it.
02:03:04.440 I'm just saying, is there a good case for, maybe she should recuse herself from.
02:03:09.600 And Glenn, are you familiar with this play?
02:03:14.700 No.
02:03:15.020 And the storyline of it?
02:03:16.200 No.
02:03:16.820 No?
02:03:17.320 Well, I know.
02:03:17.720 Let me just tell you real quick about Broadway and what's going on there.
02:03:21.760 My gosh, who's about to get a cookie?
02:03:23.320 Okay.
02:03:24.380 Yeah.
02:03:24.860 This is a play called Ann Juliet.
02:03:26.600 Uh-huh.
02:03:26.940 And basically what it does is it reimagines Romeo and Juliet, except she doesn't kill herself
02:03:33.220 for some boy.
02:03:35.040 She doesn't need a man.
02:03:39.000 That's the whole premise of this play.
02:03:41.900 Oh my gosh.
02:03:42.160 Oh my gosh, Stu.
02:03:42.380 Did I do it?
02:03:42.960 Did I do it?
02:03:43.320 You did it.
02:03:43.980 You did it.
02:03:44.500 I did it.
02:03:45.100 You did it.
02:03:45.820 I did a Broadway reference.
02:03:47.040 That is.
02:03:47.760 I did it.
02:03:48.080 What is happening in our world?
02:03:49.880 Are you doing sports?
02:03:50.980 I'm doing Broadway.
02:03:53.260 It's Freaky Friday.
02:03:55.300 It really is a Christmas miracle.
02:03:57.580 It's happening.
02:04:01.520 Okay.
02:04:02.320 Let me tell you about rough greens.
02:04:03.960 When you take your dog for a walk, you just don't put him in a wagon and drag him along
02:04:08.140 behind you.
02:04:09.200 Right?
02:04:09.420 Of course not.
02:04:10.880 He needs exercise so he can be healthy and happy.
02:04:13.020 Unfortunately, feeding him regular dog food, especially kibble food, is kind of like dragging
02:04:17.560 him along nutritionally.
02:04:19.180 You need something that brings your dog's food back to life, and that something is rough
02:04:23.660 greens, specifically designed to make your pet healthier.
02:04:27.580 And you sprinkle it on your pet's food.
02:04:29.440 It's got vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, omega oils, antioxidants.
02:04:34.740 Your dog can try it before you buy it.
02:04:36.540 They've got a free jumpstart trial bag.
02:04:39.120 It's a $20 value, but if you use the promo code GLEN, you get it for free.
02:04:44.880 Yeah.
02:04:45.480 You can cover shipping.
02:04:46.780 Wow.
02:04:47.220 This audience is expected to be able to go from sports to Broadway to dog food, and
02:04:56.500 they're all with it.
02:04:57.160 You can handle all three.
02:04:58.280 This is a smart audience.
02:04:59.500 I'll tell you that.

02:05:37.760 If you want to do better than Ann Juliet, the play on Broadway, you may instead want to go see Angel Studios' next movie.
02:05:55.280 It's coming out December 20th.
02:05:56.480 It's called Homestead.
02:05:57.940 Now, this is about what happens to the nation when Los Angeles is devastated by a nuclear attack.
02:06:03.960 The story follows ex-Green Beret and his family who join a prepper compound.
02:06:08.620 And as violent threats and apocalyptic conditions creep toward their borders,
02:06:12.500 the residents of the homestead are left to wonder,
02:06:14.300 how long can a group of people resist both the dangers of human nature and the bloodshed at their doorstep?
02:06:20.980 This is an action movie.
02:06:22.000 You're going to love it.
02:06:23.460 Plus, it is a movie that is going to teach you a little bit about maybe the way we should be acting in these types of situations.
02:06:31.120 How do you maintain a connection to humanity, Glenn?
02:06:33.820 Exactly.
02:06:34.080 So many people have lost it.

02:06:35.780 He's actually on my show tomorrow.
02:06:38.640 Your podcast.
02:06:38.940 The star of this podcast.
02:06:39.800 No, he's actually a TV show.
02:06:41.200 Oh, nice.
02:06:41.580 Okay.
02:06:41.800 Yeah, so I recorded it yesterday.
02:06:43.900 He's fascinating.
02:06:45.380 Oh, he's awesome.
02:06:46.180 Absolutely fascinating.
02:06:46.680 Yeah, he's a star.
02:06:47.380 I remember from Suits, but he's been in a million different things.
02:06:50.640 He's gonna.
02:06:51.000 Angel Studios has been doing a ton of great work lately,
02:06:52.900 and this is yet another shining example you're going to love.
02:06:55.480 This movie is jam-packed with heart-pounding tension, moral dilemmas,
02:06:58.900 and a story that cuts to the core of what it means to survive.
02:07:02.500 It explores the humanity behind the apocalypse,
02:07:04.440 so make sure you go check this movie out right now.
02:07:07.580 Actually, it's December 20th it comes out.

02:07:13.340 See you in Christmas theaters this holiday season.
02:07:27.440 Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
02:07:31.460 but the fire is so delightful.
02:07:34.440 Oh, you are good, Stu.
02:07:35.620 Thank you.
02:07:36.120 Actually, there's been some interest in maybe a Christmas album of my own, you know?
02:07:42.500 It's the Grand Old Opera.
02:07:46.920 Yes.
02:07:47.460 It's kind of like that.
02:07:48.860 Anyway, my daughter's going to be performing there tomorrow with For King and Country.
02:07:52.940 I'm really excited.
02:07:55.200 Hope you get tickets.
02:07:56.340 If you can get tickets, we'd love to see you there.
02:07:59.060 All right.
02:07:59.720 I saw something.
02:08:00.840 Now, this is from 2019, but this is why I love Elon Musk.
02:08:05.620 Listen to this question at a shareholder meeting and his answer.
02:08:10.120 Hi, everyone.
02:08:11.320 I'm Lux Fielide.
02:08:12.400 Today, I have a really exciting question.
02:08:15.240 Will Tesla make aquatic cars, and if so, when?
02:08:18.700 Do you mean like a quad bike or something?
02:08:21.240 What do you mean a quad car?
02:08:22.740 Aquatic car as in...
02:08:23.960 Oh, aquatic.
02:08:24.420 Boat or submarine, that's a car.
02:08:26.280 Oh, I see.
02:08:26.640 Okay.
02:08:27.840 Do you mean a car that can go in the water, basically?
02:08:30.000 On or under or both the water.
02:08:35.820 It's funny you should mention that.
02:08:42.800 We do actually have a design for a submarine car, like the one from The Spy Who Loved Me,
02:08:50.980 sort of the Lotus that turns into a sub.
02:08:53.060 And I actually, I thought that was like the coolest thing I'd seen in a movie,
02:08:57.860 so I actually have that, the ones from the movie.
02:09:02.940 Now, that one cannot actually transform, because it has like fins where the wheels are.
02:09:09.060 It's obviously not going to work.
02:09:11.480 But if you make it a bit bigger, then you can actually have a submarine car.
02:09:18.620 It's like technically possible.
02:09:19.700 I think the market for this will be small.
02:09:23.060 You really, I think it's a small market for the submarine car?
02:09:29.900 Well, the guy in the West is like the, you know, super geek, the nerdiest guy.
02:09:35.440 And we're going to make an aquatic car.
02:09:38.160 So excited.
02:09:39.200 Yeah.
02:09:39.860 We actually already have plans for it.
02:09:41.260 Got one on a drawing board.
02:09:42.900 I just love that.
02:09:44.340 Yeah.
02:09:44.860 All right.
02:09:45.320 Stu, Merry Christmas.
02:09:46.500 Merry Christmas, Glenn.
02:09:47.060 We'll see you after the New Year.
02:09:48.620 Say good luck to Cheyenne for me.
02:09:49.780 I will.
02:09:50.320 I will.
02:09:50.700 It's going to be amazing.
02:09:51.420 And I'll see you from Nashville tomorrow, and then I'm on my way to Amerifest in, where is it?
02:10:01.560 Phoenix, Arizona.
02:10:02.500 I'll be in Arizona on Thursday, Friday.
02:10:06.820 The Glenn Beck Program.
02:10:08.120 I'll be in Arizona on Thursday, Friday.
