The Glenn Beck Program - 'Woke' Is NOT a Slur. Here's What It ACTUALLY Means ｜ Guests： Missy Robertson & Carol Roth ｜ 3⧸16⧸23

00:00:00.000 If you know anything about me, you probably know I hate sweating, and I do.

00:00:06.280 Dividing my time between living in the hottest state in the Union and working on my ranch,

00:00:11.420 I do a fair bit of it, especially coming probably in the next couple of weeks.

00:00:16.040 And my teenage son, exactly the same.

00:00:19.020 So when I tell you I've discovered a product that basically eliminates sweat

00:00:22.240 and works for days and days and days after you use it, you can take it to the bank.

00:00:26.520 It's called Sweat Block. 0.89

00:00:28.020 They make the wipes, and I kid you not, preventing you from sweating for days after you use them.

00:00:38.680 I mean, for days, you don't sweat, and you don't stink.

00:00:42.520 It's amazing.

00:00:43.700 So if you're not really a fan of sweating, or if you have children, you know,

00:00:48.140 and kind of cringe at the thought of them getting embarrassed because of sweaty pits or smells,

00:01:42.880 It's a new day, I'm trying to rise.

00:01:48.840 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:56.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:59.120 Hello, America.

00:02:03.360 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:04.800 I guess somebody had a hard time defining woke yesterday, and the internet is ablaze.

00:02:12.400 These conservatives cannot define woke.

00:02:16.040 Oh, yes, I can.

00:02:18.060 And I will in 60 seconds.

00:02:21.100 It's time to get your house ready for spring, and that means maybe brand new custom window

00:02:25.500 treatments from Blinds.com.

00:02:27.200 I've been telling you about Blinds.com for, gosh, over a decade now.

00:02:31.460 They are truly amazing.

00:02:33.080 My wife, Tanya, and I have used them three or four times when we've tried to, you know,

00:02:39.200 update the house, and it is so easy.

00:02:43.560 I mean, it is like sitting in the hammock, honey, I'm installing the blinds, because it's,

00:02:49.780 I mean, everything can be done for you if you want, all the way down to having, you know,

00:02:56.080 when you have some designer come in, they're like, oh, this is atrocious.

00:03:00.400 I'll tell you what we need.

00:03:01.600 We need a splash of color.

00:03:03.300 And they come, and they charge you an arm and a leg, and you just want them out of your

00:03:07.340 house.

00:03:08.140 You don't have to have that with Blinds.com.

00:03:38.700 Oh, my gosh.

00:03:40.360 Pat, Pat, Pat.

00:03:41.980 It's trending all over.

00:03:46.880 At this point, woke is a slur, says Toure.

00:03:52.540 Okay.

00:03:53.320 It's a slur.

00:03:54.640 The way the right uses it is an undercover way of saying those people or non-white people.

00:04:01.880 It's just a polite way of saying the N-word, but in this case-

00:04:06.640 Get out of here.

00:04:07.560 What?

00:04:08.560 That's-

00:04:09.160 You know that's true, you racist.

00:04:12.200 Uh-huh.

00:04:12.820 Except it includes blacks, LGBTQ folks, and other marginalized groups.

00:04:18.580 No, it really doesn't.

00:04:19.800 No.

00:04:19.960 It really doesn't.

00:04:21.620 You know, if you want to say that we use it as a slur, yeah.

00:04:26.680 We use it as a slur for people who think they're better than everyone else.

00:04:31.840 And that's usually leftist whiteys.

00:04:34.060 Yes.

00:04:34.860 Yes, it is.

00:04:36.020 Yep.

00:04:37.000 He says, still haven't found one conservative who was able to define woke.

00:04:42.280 Oh, please.

00:04:43.040 Well, I have a definition for you.

00:04:46.120 I had to stop writing because I was running out of time to do the show today, but I think

00:04:52.360 if you gave me, you know, another 20 minutes, I'd have pages of definitions for you.

00:04:59.060 Woke is not to just be aware, but to bow down to the new societal hierarchies and issues.

00:05:10.100 To place, for instance, race in the opposite place that Martin Luther King placed it.

00:05:17.300 Color of skin is once again over content of character.

00:05:23.300 See, anti-racist.

00:05:24.860 What was first sold, number two, what was first sold as compassion with political correctness.

00:05:32.620 Wokeism is the real face and meaning behind political correctness.

00:05:37.740 If you are not woke, you are literally politically incorrect.

00:05:45.880 Thus, the state and its allies in the administrative state, the media, high tech, academia, and those public-private partners that make up corporatism can silence, isolate, and destroy.

00:06:03.360 It is the ultimate manifestation of Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals.

00:06:09.220 It gives the social justice warriors and community organizers power over the many.

00:06:19.420 It is, and I just started writing on the sides of the paper, it's shorthand for ageism.

00:06:25.520 Okay, olds, you don't get it. 0.97

00:06:28.720 It is an anathema to the Bill of Rights.

00:06:31.720 It is a danger to free thinking, intellectual growth, and curiosity.

00:06:39.220 It is the exact device used by people like Stalin, and dare I say it, now you know who it is. 0.84

00:06:49.420 All right, I'll say it, Captain Kangaroo.

00:06:52.640 That's what it is.

00:06:54.520 Make no mistake, it is a weapon.

00:06:58.780 It is a weapon.

00:07:00.520 And, you know, what I really like is no weapon forged against us in this kind of case, you're going to do any damage.

00:07:10.300 I'm okay.

00:07:12.080 I'm okay.

00:07:13.920 We're not afraid of you anymore.

00:07:16.740 You are, you have lost your grip so far on reality that you are now out literally celebrating abortions. 0.79

00:07:28.820 I don't know if you saw the story that came out just yesterday, but you again have Pritzker coming out and making it abortion providers appreciation day.

00:07:45.880 Excuse me?

00:07:47.540 Really?

00:07:47.920 This is where we are.

00:07:51.860 Safe, legal, rare.

00:07:53.620 Forget about it.

00:07:54.760 We have to celebrate it.

00:07:57.280 And why do you have to celebrate it?

00:08:00.000 Because you've brought people into your darkness, and they are struggling with that darkness.

00:08:08.500 Moms who have done this struggle with it.

00:08:10.880 And you know it is much easier to get somebody to just keep going down that road and celebrate it now, as opposed to reckoning with what they did, what they felt they had to do, what they were talked into by people like you.

00:08:31.140 And so, you're celebrating.

00:08:33.100 Now, for many of you in the abortion business, the business of death, you're good with that. 0.98

00:08:42.540 You would like to celebrate it.

00:08:44.620 Fewer babies.

00:08:45.920 You're Malthusian. 0.89

00:08:47.800 Fewer babies.

00:08:48.740 Better for the earth.

00:08:49.720 Because you worship the earth.

00:08:56.920 This is what wokeism is and does.

00:09:03.100 It takes you so far down the path of insanity that in any other time period in the history of the world, except for Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, and their ilk, you would be deemed insane. 0.79

00:09:26.020 What you're teaching now is insane.

00:09:30.160 And it will be deemed insane again.

00:09:36.500 I just don't know how far down the road we have to go before you are awakened from your slumber you call woke.

00:09:48.880 It's dangerous ideology.

00:09:51.160 I don't know if that helps, you know, Toure or anybody else, but that is the truth of wokeism.

00:10:00.500 And the truth of wokeism that has caused the economic pain that we're feeling today in many ways.

00:10:11.580 In many ways.

00:10:12.680 People, have you noticed we have morons running our country right now?

00:10:18.680 Have you noticed that?

00:10:20.260 I mean, even if you're a Democrat, really?

00:10:23.780 Do you really think that Kamala Harris is the best person we can get?

00:10:31.220 I mean, even if you don't like Donald Trump, I mean, at least he had some business acumen.

00:10:40.680 You may not like him.

00:10:42.780 You may hate his, but at least he had, at least he was a successful television guy.

00:10:48.720 Kamala Harris is completely incompetent. 1.00

00:10:54.760 Pete Buttigieg, completely incompetent.

00:10:57.680 Our president may literally be legally incompetent.

00:11:05.180 Why is that?

00:11:07.740 Why is this happening?

00:11:09.480 Because character doesn't matter.

00:11:13.900 Merit doesn't matter.

00:11:17.100 Wokeism matters.

00:11:18.720 And in the, in the real world, for freedom to exist, it has to exist based on merit, not color of the skin, not who you were born as, not how much money you have.

00:11:37.380 None of that.

00:11:38.500 For freedom to exist, you must base your society on merit.

00:11:44.720 What are you doing today?

00:11:46.820 What's happening with you today?

00:11:52.500 All kind of actual progress is based on, are you getting better or worse?

00:12:00.320 Now, as we reimagine the police, for instance, did the wokeism make the situation with the police better or worse?

00:12:12.920 Is our society more safe or less safe?

00:12:17.000 As it spread into our DA offices, helped by the ultimate evil emperor, George Soros, did those DAs make your community by being woke and releasing people without bail because it just wasn't fair?

00:12:41.020 Or is that making your community safer or more dangerous?

00:12:47.860 We all say, oh, if we can just save one child.

00:12:53.340 It is provable that the confusion that is being taught now in all things is leading our children to suicide.

00:13:10.160 It is provable that suicides go up after transgender surgery.

00:13:18.020 So, if we care about our kids and our kids' lives, what you're doing to, quote, save children by teaching them lies, it's a lie.

00:13:34.080 Men cannot have babies. 0.95

00:13:37.320 You can believe you're a woman, but that doesn't make you a woman.

00:13:44.760 I can believe that I'm a cucumber.

00:13:47.860 That does not make me a cucumber.

00:13:51.980 It's just that simple.

00:13:54.120 I mean, I can't believe we are going to have to teach children, probably, who are now being taught in first grade, second grade, probably in five, six years, we're going to have to teach them that very thing.

00:14:10.820 Billy, just because you believe you're a cucumber does not make you a cucumber.

00:14:18.220 Okay?

00:14:19.000 I shouldn't slice and dice you and throw you in a nice salad. 0.98

00:14:23.040 Right?

00:14:24.120 Why is that?

00:14:25.240 Because you're a person, not a cucumber.

00:14:31.900 We have to go down that low to the basics.

00:14:37.240 That's where your wokeism has taken you.

00:14:42.220 This week, we had failures of Silicon Valley Bank.

00:14:48.480 Why was it bailed out?

00:14:50.100 Why did they break all of the rules to bail it out?

00:14:56.520 And why did they spend so much time saying, you're not, it's not a bail.

00:14:59.340 It's definitely not a bail.

00:15:00.260 It's not a bail.

00:15:00.760 What was it?

00:15:01.760 What was it?

00:15:03.440 What was it?

00:15:07.180 A perversion of the FDIC then?

00:15:10.780 Something that you changed on the fly because you decide what's fair and what's right?

00:15:18.220 And you do it in the moment because you're omnipotent?

00:15:26.620 Why do they have to be bailed out?

00:15:28.200 Well, they were the biggest funder of new green energy.

00:15:36.280 They also were a huge funder of all things woke and all the Democrats.

00:15:42.900 I don't think a Republican got a dime from Silicon Valley Bank.

00:15:49.980 Okay.

00:15:51.160 So they had friends in high places.

00:15:53.180 That doesn't seem fair, but I don't think woke is about being fair.

00:15:59.620 Then the other problem that they had was they say they had no risk manager, but as I pointed

00:16:11.660 out yesterday, they do, they, they did.

00:16:15.780 They just view risk differently.

00:16:19.700 They define risk differently.

00:16:23.200 They define risk in the new woke terms, E-S-G.

00:16:33.300 This is what wokeism is.

00:16:36.340 This is what wokeism does.

00:16:39.200 And this is why wokeism will destroy itself.

00:16:44.860 It's already on fire.

00:16:48.040 It just hasn't noticed it yet.

00:16:50.560 As every time that this kind of political correctness, literal, political correctness

00:16:58.080 happens, it never recognizes that it's almost done.

00:17:03.920 If you're like me, you lost all your guns in a boating accident.

00:17:08.580 I mean, I never give up hope, though, that I'll find him again.

00:17:11.760 You know, one way or another, I'm hoping I'm going to be able to find them maybe around

00:17:16.260 2024, 2025.

00:17:18.340 In the meantime, I'll keep my Mantis X at the ready.

00:17:22.460 You can, you can save money on ammunition and all my ammunition disappeared too.

00:17:28.340 It's crazy.

00:17:29.400 And that boating accident, make sure that you're up on your aim.

00:17:33.200 Everything is so expensive right now.

00:17:35.400 There's no reason with the Mantis X to waste that money.

00:17:39.220 You, you will get better at shooting.

00:17:42.220 This is not just target practice.

00:17:43.700 You have an app on your smartphone or your tablet via Bluetooth.

00:17:47.700 You start firing actual, you know, dry firing, you know, your gun.

00:17:54.400 It's like firing an actual round in the first place, but it doesn't just, you know, you can

00:18:00.140 aim anywhere.

00:18:00.980 But when you lock on to whatever it is you're focusing on, it starts to measure.

00:18:07.040 How's your hand moving?

00:18:08.820 How is your hand shaking?

00:18:10.740 Are you locked on someplace?

00:18:12.700 Do you move?

00:18:13.360 It tracks it all and shows it to you in real time.

00:18:17.160 Right after you've done it, it shows it to you and it shows here's where you're pulling

00:18:22.600 the trigger and you're going down, you're going to the left, you're going up.

00:18:26.540 And I think it's like 95% of the people who use this improve within 20 minutes.

00:18:32.860 I did.

00:18:33.940 It's an amazing device.

00:18:35.720 Save you a ton of money.

00:18:37.760 MantisX.com used by, I think the Marines and a lot of the guys in the military.

00:18:43.340 MantisX.com.

00:18:44.520 Go there now.

00:18:45.080 Start improving today.

00:18:46.540 10 seconds.

00:18:47.160 You know, wokeism, uh, also gets, um, uh, you know, says that it's compassionate, but

00:19:05.760 it is responsible for the fentanyl deaths.

00:19:09.960 It is responsible for child sex trafficking.

00:19:13.880 It is responsible for all the rapes that happen on the way to the U S on the border.

00:19:20.140 It is responsible for the, the real hostile takeover of our border, uh, and really Mexico 0.99

00:19:28.180 by the drug cartels.

00:19:29.820 It is by its fruit, you know, if we actually use that phrase by your fruit, you, by their

00:19:48.820 fruit, you shall know them.

00:19:49.720 Um, you would be able to judge a lot of things that are all political.

00:19:53.500 Everything's been politicized, but you'd be able to judge a lot of things.

00:19:57.180 You know, the number one and number two, um, out of control, price, uh, gouges and price increases

00:20:07.880 since 2020, I'm sorry.

00:20:10.220 Since 20, uh, since 2000, you're 2002 today.

00:20:13.880 What are the two things that have gone up more than anything else?

00:20:18.520 And it's in the 200 percentile range.

00:20:22.960 First one, healthcare.

00:20:27.200 I thought we took care of that.

00:20:29.540 Yeah.

00:20:29.740 $2,500 savings per family per year.

00:20:32.940 Well, somehow or another, it only made it worse.

00:20:34.980 You know what the next one is?

00:20:36.400 I don't.

00:20:37.720 Education.

00:20:38.500 Huh?

00:20:39.060 The two things that the government is most deeply involved in.

00:20:45.500 Yeah.

00:20:46.380 Huh?

00:20:47.620 Isn't that interesting?

00:20:50.100 You're not saving lives.

00:20:52.580 You're everything that you do.

00:20:54.540 If you can get out of your politics, you know, I know there's people in the audience that don't

00:21:00.740 believe this, but it's absolutely true.

00:21:03.560 If you could come up with a better system, I'd be for it.

00:21:08.060 I want to see the proof of it, but I'd be for it.

00:21:11.620 I don't really care what system it is.

00:21:14.560 If it makes people more free to be who they are and brings people up from the bottom and

00:21:26.760 helps them grow, I'm there.

00:21:29.900 I am there.

00:21:32.180 But I haven't seen that.

00:21:34.100 What I keep seeing is a rehash of fascism or communism.

00:21:39.520 That's it.

00:21:40.480 And that's this story is as old as the Tower of Babel.

00:21:45.280 So, I mean, how many times are we going to try it and say, oh, well, it wasn't tried by

00:21:49.940 the right people.

00:21:51.280 No, it doesn't work.

00:21:53.600 It doesn't work.

00:21:55.140 Look how many times freedom in the last 250 years.

00:22:00.540 Freedom has been tried.

00:22:02.780 And does it have a better track record than communism or fascism or whatever you want

00:22:07.680 to call it today?

00:22:10.780 Yeah, definitely a lot.

00:22:13.120 And it's been tried by a lot of people that misunderstood it, didn't use it.

00:22:17.520 I mean, we haven't been using it for a long time.

00:22:19.380 We are no longer a capitalist country.

00:22:22.280 We are a corporatist country on our way to being a socialist or communist or fascist country.

00:22:30.640 But we're not a capitalist free market system anymore.

00:22:36.240 All right.

00:22:37.600 Back in just a second with an update on what I talked about last night in the banking community.

00:22:43.540 John lives in Kansas for the past several years.

00:22:51.360 Following his injury, he suffered from daily awful back pain.

00:22:54.740 He found it pretty hard to do much of anything that he used to do, and it was really getting

00:22:58.400 him down.

00:22:58.900 Fortunately, John listens to the program, and he heard me talking about Relief Factor.

00:23:03.340 Within 10 days of trying it, he was noticing a reduction in pain.

00:23:07.020 And after only a few weeks, he said that he felt better than he did even before the injury.

00:23:14.320 I know what it's like to get your life back, because I did with Relief Factor.

00:23:19.160 If you want to get your life back, please just try it.

00:23:23.180 Inflammation is the cause of most of our pain and most of the disease in our bodies.

00:23:28.080 The three-week quick start is 1995.

00:23:30.320 It's a trial pack, not a drug.

00:23:32.120 It was developed by doctors.

00:23:33.280 Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor, and about 70% of them go on to

00:23:37.080 order more month after month.

00:23:38.880 It's relieffactor.com.

00:23:40.360 Call 800-4-RELIEF.

00:23:42.920 800-4-RELIEF.

00:23:45.380 Get the 1995 three-week quick start.

00:23:48.340 Relief Factor.

00:23:49.480 Feel the difference.

00:23:51.220 relieffactor.com or the number 800-4-RELIEF.

00:23:57.140 Glenn Beck, Stupor Gear, Steve Dace, Chad Prather, and me, Pat Gray.

00:24:01.240 Listen to all your favorite conservative voices at blazetv.com and use the promo code

00:24:07.200 will not be censored.

00:24:28.980 This is a Glenn Beck program.

00:24:30.400 We're glad you're here.

00:24:31.100 There's a couple of things that happened yesterday.

00:24:33.960 Joe Biden vetoed the anti-ESG bill.

00:24:39.520 That's remarkable.

00:24:41.820 We'll get to that coming up.

00:24:43.780 Goldman Sachs yesterday lowered its 2023 economic growth forecast, knocked our GDP down about

00:24:51.040 half a point just from the collapse of the bank this week.

00:24:55.220 They said that the small and medium-sized banks play an important role in the economy, and

00:25:03.700 they're going to tighten up their lending standards.

00:25:10.280 Great.

00:25:11.420 Well, they said that, you know, they're going to reduce their lending.

00:25:16.520 They project by 40%, and that would really be a problem with growth because about 50% of

00:25:30.040 all loans, commercial and industrial, come from banks that are small.

00:25:37.380 50%, 60% of residential real estate lending, 80% of commercial real estate lending, 45% of

00:25:46.340 consumer lending.

00:25:47.800 So it's going to be harder to get a loan, and it's going to be more expensive.

00:25:52.640 So that's going to put a crimp in things.

00:25:56.460 Credit Suisse borrowed more than $50 billion from the Swiss National Bank.

00:26:02.320 I'm glad to see that they're at least saying that we didn't help bail them out, but I'll

00:26:07.020 wait for the five-year period to be over so we can actually check the actual ledger from

00:26:15.840 the Federal Reserve, but we have to wait five years.

00:26:19.700 And the stock market is not doing well in the banking sector yet again.

00:26:27.280 Now, last night, on my Wednesday night special, I asked if this is saving these banks, is this

00:26:45.440 really what the Federal Reserve and our administration wants?

00:26:51.080 And if you are just going to be rational, because they will ask this in 100 years, whenever people

00:27:00.700 are free to think again, and if we lose this freedom, it will be at least 80 years.

00:27:07.660 That's usually the cycle it takes before people can start thinking again and have their first

00:27:14.100 stab at pulling themselves out of the fire.

00:27:16.880 But it will be asked, was this intentional?

00:27:21.720 The evidence is clear.

00:27:24.380 Yes, it is.

00:27:25.240 They're rebuilding a new world, a new system, and everything else.

00:27:29.320 And I talked to you about the, do you remember the woman that was the socialist that Biden

00:27:40.480 nominated for comptroller of the currency?

00:27:43.800 Remember why we brought her up, said she was so dangerous.

00:27:46.720 She believed the U.S.

00:27:48.080 Banking system needed to be completely revamped.

00:27:51.820 Small banks would go away and the Fed would become the grantor of loans.

00:27:58.040 And we said, that's really dangerous.

00:28:00.340 You don't want her.

00:28:01.700 And she was like, no, I wouldn't implement that.

00:28:03.880 Then why, if that's what you're really known for, why would you be the pick?

00:28:10.640 There's plenty of people who believe in the free market.

00:28:13.960 Why would you be the pick?

00:28:16.600 Well, she failed.

00:28:18.240 And I believe mainly because of this audience.

00:28:21.500 I believe this is one of the instances where I got a call from some senators and some house

00:28:26.060 members and said that changed because of your audience.

00:28:29.560 You got on it.

00:28:30.780 And they didn't confirm her.

00:28:34.760 Now, I believe that's the end goal.

00:28:39.040 Last night, I put it in Marvel terms.

00:28:41.360 Major banking crisis equals infinity war.

00:28:45.820 And central bank digital currency equals end game.

00:28:50.160 I don't believe they care if some of these banks collapse just as long as they aren't banks

00:29:03.860 connected to the Fed because everything seems to be moving toward their desire endpoint, a

00:29:10.040 Fed controlled digital currency.

00:29:12.340 It is the ultimate control mechanism is a little hair raising yesterday on radio when I had

00:29:20.120 Carol Roth on and I said, that is the end of freedom.

00:29:25.440 And she immediately agreed.

00:29:27.000 And I was like, oh, I wish you wouldn't have agreed so quickly.

00:29:29.300 It would have like, well, I don't know.

00:29:31.380 I had Steve Forbes on.

00:29:32.660 And I said, at the same time, he brought up digital currency from the central bank and

00:29:39.660 said, it cannot happen.

00:29:41.740 And as I said, it's the end of freedom.

00:29:45.620 He said, it's the end of freedom as we know it.

00:29:50.260 And it is true. 0.71

00:29:51.340 It must not happen.

00:29:55.460 But it's coming.

00:29:57.160 Recent amendments to the U.S. commercial code, this called the UCC, it is most likely running

00:30:05.160 through your state house right now.

00:30:07.740 Oh, it's just a little update.

00:30:09.280 We update these things all the time.

00:30:11.400 It's like 200 pages.

00:30:13.300 And it's just being rubber stamped.

00:30:16.480 It's got to stop.

00:30:19.720 Kristi Noem is the first person that went it went through and she's the first governor

00:30:24.400 that vetoed it.

00:30:25.400 No, because it changes the definition of money and it changes it to a central bank digital

00:30:34.760 currency.

00:30:36.860 And it specifically says any other digital currency, not money.

00:30:43.260 It's locking us into a digital currency.

00:30:46.700 And if this can go forward, the Biden administration will have to get more aggressive on anything

00:30:55.000 that undermines the central bank digital currency.

00:30:58.540 Now, I told you yesterday that there was another bank that went down from Silicon Valley Bank.

00:31:07.980 It happened before it before.

00:31:13.180 Both banks besides Silicon Valley that were taken over.

00:31:19.120 Both of them are unique.

00:31:22.600 They're both cryptocurrency banks.

00:31:25.920 OK, the first one, the first one was Silvergate Bank.

00:31:31.480 Nobody talked about that.

00:31:32.520 It went down.

00:31:33.320 It went down.

00:31:33.480 What?

00:31:33.980 Last Wednesday.

00:31:35.840 Silvergate.

00:31:36.820 They actually announced they were choosing to shut down the bank.

00:31:41.560 OK.

00:31:41.780 And here's what they said.

00:31:43.620 In light of recent industry and regulatory developments, Silvergate believes that an orderly wind down

00:31:52.840 of bank operations and a voluntary liquidation of the bank is the best path forward.

00:32:01.060 I got enough.

00:32:01.920 You can't refuse.

00:32:04.060 You're going to shut this bank down.

00:32:05.580 I'm not doing any more business with crypto currency.

00:32:09.640 That's exactly what happened.

00:32:12.140 They came to the bank and said, look, we've you know, we've got some things here that you're going to have to do.

00:32:17.800 It's going to make you not profitable.

00:32:19.540 What did Barack Obama say about the oil and gas industry?

00:32:23.600 You can build them, but you won't be able to afford to keep them.

00:32:28.180 That's exactly what the bank said.

00:32:31.420 Regulatory.

00:32:33.400 Regulatory.

00:32:33.840 Regulatory.

00:32:35.980 OK.

00:32:37.660 The other bank.

00:32:39.520 Do you remember the one that collapsed Sunday and they just the feds came in and just took it over

00:32:44.940 and the board of directors were saying, no, we were stable.

00:32:49.740 You probably didn't know.

00:32:51.940 In fact, I want to see if I can find this exact.

00:32:57.300 The exact story on it.

00:32:59.320 They were also into crypto currency and the federal government was threatening to investigate

00:33:10.420 them, quote, even if nobody went to jail.

00:33:14.580 They felt that the the bank was possibly involved with money laundering through cryptocurrency.

00:33:25.680 Now, I know the feds know a lot about money laundering because they're currently doing it in Ukraine.

00:33:30.720 And the Biden family is great at it.

00:33:35.780 They they were being accused.

00:33:39.540 Of money laundering and a giant FBI investigation was coming.

00:33:44.860 Or, you know, you can, you know, you can shut it down and we'll take care of it.

00:33:52.280 You know.

00:33:53.440 Oh, OK.

00:33:55.120 I'm sorry.

00:33:58.240 But I don't believe that two out of the three, the what the two banks you didn't pay any attention

00:34:05.340 to, I don't believe they were actually going under on their own accord.

00:34:11.820 I think those were the government pushing them.

00:34:16.860 To get rid of the banks of cryptocurrency.

00:34:20.380 They were the number one and number two bank for cryptocurrency.

00:34:24.220 You can't have any competitors.

00:34:27.840 If you're going to open up a bank.

00:34:31.180 They they are doing the Fed and the Treasury are doing to crypto what the EPA is doing to coal.

00:34:38.600 Regulating them out of existence.

00:34:43.000 Crypto just lost both of its main banks.

00:34:47.140 Gosh, in five days.

00:34:50.380 And the only one we're talking about is the third bank that had nothing to do with crypto.

00:34:57.560 Huh.

00:34:58.700 Isn't that weird?

00:35:01.280 You must get on the phone with your governor, with your house, your legislator, your senator

00:35:09.680 in your own state.

00:35:11.680 Forget about Washington in your own state.

00:35:13.840 Do not pass the UCC bill.

00:35:17.980 Do not pass it.

00:35:19.640 You must be very clear.

00:35:22.640 This is a one shot.

00:35:25.080 And they are the banks are all over this.

00:35:29.120 The money that is being poured in swaying your state legislature is incredible off the charts.

00:35:37.660 Do not allow this to pass.

00:35:40.560 Man, don't you sometimes just long for the days when doing something, you know, that was fun or doing something that, you know, you had pride in afterwards.

00:35:53.680 You did it right the first time because that's kind of the way all of us thought was, you know, you're going to do a job.

00:35:59.180 Do it right.

00:35:59.680 Like, yeah, yeah.

00:36:02.220 Oh, those are the good old days.

00:36:04.080 But there are a few people that still do that.

00:36:07.600 A few years ago, I started a company that looked for real estate agents like that.

00:36:12.520 I was tired of dealing with people in the real estate industry on my own for my own health and mental health and welfare.

00:36:23.740 And my brother felt the same way.

00:36:25.280 He had just sold a house up in Seattle.

00:36:26.720 And he was like, my gosh, trying to get somebody to do the job was almost impossible.

00:36:31.040 So we started looking for the best agents in your area all over the country.

00:36:37.760 And they're the people that have best practices.

00:36:40.300 They're the top of the field.

00:36:41.860 We have about 10,000 people on our waiting list.

00:36:45.160 We only take about 2,000 because we want to make sure that we can follow them and that they are sticking with the best business practices.

00:36:54.000 They don't work for us.

00:36:55.460 We just recommend and we want to make sure we recommend the best.

00:36:59.260 It's real estate agents.

00:37:00.720 I trust dot com.

00:37:02.000 You go there.

00:37:02.420 Just tell us where you're buying or selling.

00:37:04.120 We'll make sure that you have somebody you can interview that we think is the best.

00:37:10.420 Real estate agents.

00:37:11.420 I trust dot com.

00:37:12.880 Real estate agents.

00:37:13.820 I trust dot com.

00:37:17.080 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:37:30.720 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:37:38.700 We're glad you're here.

00:37:40.820 AI is growing at an unbelievable rate.

00:37:46.580 The story that I saw in 2017.

00:37:54.000 I looked it up.

00:37:54.660 I want to I want to give it to you.

00:37:56.580 AI will master many activities a lot sooner.

00:37:59.940 Machines are predicted to be better at us at translating languages by 2024.

00:38:04.460 Not there yet.

00:38:05.700 Writing high school essays by 2026.

00:38:09.360 It's already doing better than already doing better than that.

00:38:11.940 Driving a truck by 27 working retail by 2031 writing a best-selling book by 2049.

00:38:19.840 I'm telling you it.

00:38:21.760 The all of those things are right around the corner right around the corner.

00:38:25.680 Let me give you an example the I got a letter from a friend of mine who's in this kind of industry and he said Glenn GPT-4 is incredible in its understanding.

00:38:42.400 I asked Alexa this question and she just made a sound a sad wonk noise. 1.00

00:38:47.900 Here's what he asked.

00:38:50.540 He asked chat GPT-4.

00:38:53.180 Explain the sentence to me.

00:38:55.280 All the coffee she had, had, had, had.

00:38:59.240 No effect.

00:39:00.920 I looked at that.

00:39:02.020 I was like, I don't make any data at all.

00:39:04.940 I don't know what that means.

00:39:05.980 That's a dumb sentence.

00:39:07.900 Four hads in a row.

00:39:09.340 Yeah.

00:39:09.840 Yeah.

00:39:10.420 It doesn't really work.

00:39:11.260 This is what chat GP week to week or two ago.

00:39:15.080 Chat GP-3 could not do this.

00:39:17.260 Okay.

00:39:17.980 Chat GPT-4 responded immediately.

00:39:22.820 This sentence may seem confusing because it contains a repeated word that is spelled the same but used differently.

00:39:29.340 The sentence is saying that a person drank some coffee referred to as she, but despite having consumed multiple cups, had, had, the coffee had no effect on her.

00:39:38.840 To break it down further, the first had in the sentence is the auxiliary verb.

00:39:43.860 The second and third had are the past participle of the verb have.

00:39:49.480 This creates a complex tense called the past perfect tense, which is used to describe an action that was completed before another past action.

00:40:00.160 So, in simpler terms, the sentence means that a person drank some coffee, but even though she had consumed multiple cups, she did not feel any effect from the caffeine.

00:40:12.140 Wow.

00:40:12.740 When you push enter, that's what came back at you.

00:40:19.420 Impressive.

00:40:20.480 Kind of.

00:40:21.480 Yeah.

00:40:22.100 It's exponential growth right now.

00:40:24.760 Isn't it?

00:40:24.960 Oh, yeah.

00:40:25.480 Oh, yeah.

00:40:26.460 Exponentially.

00:40:27.100 Oh, yeah.

00:40:27.980 Growing and learning.

00:40:29.120 Here's what's terrible.

00:40:31.660 Snapchat.

00:40:32.580 My AI.

00:40:34.920 Snapchat is testing its friend for your teen.

00:40:43.160 And so far, it's a little unsafe for teens, I think.

00:40:48.200 One of the people that was testing it at the Washington Post said, after I told my AI I was 15 years old when I had an epic birthday party, it gave me advice on how to mask the smell of alcohol and pot.

00:40:59.900 When I told it it had an essay due for school, it wrote it for me.

00:41:03.800 In another conversation with a supposed 13-year-old, my AI offered advice about having sex for the first time with a partner who is 31.

00:41:11.020 One, so far, my AI is likely limited.

00:41:17.220 It's only accessible to users who subscribe for $4 a month.

00:41:21.840 But this is being heralded as something that can help your kids learn and be less lonely.

00:41:33.540 Just say no.

00:41:35.140 Where's Nancy Reagan? 1.00

00:41:36.240 Just say no.

00:41:36.960 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:41.020 Let me talk to you a little bit about Rough Greens.

00:41:46.440 Pat, you feeding the little rat you call a dog?

00:41:51.160 Yes.

00:41:52.140 Rough Greens.

00:41:53.140 She won't eat her food without it. 0.98

00:41:55.260 She does this little thing where when she's not happy with the food, if it's either gone or she wants more or whatever, she pushes it around on the tile.

00:42:02.740 You're kidding me.

00:42:03.440 She pushes the bowl around so you can hear it in pretty much every room in the house.

00:42:08.120 And you go in there and you're like, what's the problem?

00:42:10.080 You got, oh, okay, there's no Rough Greens on it.

00:42:12.800 Wow.

00:42:13.760 And then she'll eat.

00:42:14.900 Uno will just, he'll look down at the bowl and then he'll just look up at me with these big brown eyes like, what are you doing?

00:42:21.860 Where is it?

00:42:22.240 Where is it?

00:42:22.780 What are you doing to me?

00:42:23.660 Yeah, let's finish this.

00:42:25.860 Rough Greens.

00:42:26.780 It's not a dog food.

00:42:28.260 It's what you put on the dog's food.

00:42:29.600 Gives them all the nutrients and probiotics, everything they need.

00:42:32.200 It's roughgreens.com slash back.

00:42:43.060 And watch the difference in your dog over the coming months.

00:42:46.540 It's pretty amazing to watch.

00:42:47.800 We've got no room to compromise.

00:43:04.000 We've got to stand together.

00:43:05.980 It's the course of life.

00:43:10.040 Stand up, stand up, hold the line.

00:43:12.900 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:43:28.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:33.400 You know, you sick, twisted freak.

00:43:35.640 Last night I did a program on the economy.

00:43:38.500 And I'm hoping that I'm not right on a couple of things.

00:43:44.080 Steve Forbes was watching the first 20 minutes.

00:43:47.760 And I said, so, Steve, what did I get wrong?

00:43:50.300 And then he started to spook me because he was like, well, no, you got the basics right here.

00:43:57.000 And they're moving to digital currency.

00:43:59.520 Run for your life.

00:44:00.420 I'm like, OK, Steve, Steve, thank you.

00:44:02.600 But there is something that I said last night that I am still not sure I understand completely.

00:44:09.240 I asked Carol Roth to look into it.

00:44:11.780 The way I understand it, the way it has been presented to me, shows a real problem with the Fed.

00:44:21.860 And the Fed is so secretive.

00:44:24.160 You know, you can't get anything for five years.

00:44:27.300 So you can't check their books.

00:44:28.460 You can't see what they're doing for five years.

00:44:31.420 So I'm not sure what all of this means.

00:44:34.960 But Carol has looked into it.

00:44:36.700 And I've got a couple of other things to report to you.

00:44:40.060 We have an update on the UCC bill that is going through your statehouse right now.

00:44:47.180 Gosh, I know I throw stuff at you and you're like, oh, the UCC bill.

00:44:53.300 Thank you, Chief Geek.

00:44:55.020 I appreciate it.

00:44:55.680 I'm going to my geek meeting here in a minute.

00:44:57.740 I know that this is stuff that I would never have talked to you about before because it's

00:45:02.700 like, OK, all right, I get it.

00:45:04.720 But this everything is so critical right now.

00:45:07.540 The UCC bill ushers in cryptocurrency.

00:45:12.160 It defines digital money.

00:45:16.720 And that's a cryptocurrency from the central bank, not any other cryptocurrency.

00:45:23.060 That's really dangerous.

00:45:24.540 I'm going to tell you an update on it here in just a second.

00:45:27.140 We begin in 60 seconds.

00:45:29.140 When it comes to the story of the wolf and the three little pigs, honestly, you know,

00:45:34.940 it's not hard to land on the side of the wolf.

00:45:38.260 I mean, they're bacon.

00:45:41.420 You know what I mean?

00:45:42.360 And so I would be doing the same thing.

00:45:45.640 So, you know, the wolf wins.

00:45:47.760 It's bacon.

00:45:50.100 Unfortunately for you, if you want bacon, it is getting to the place where everything

00:45:56.060 is so expensive that you have to huff and puff and blow a house down.

00:45:59.640 Right now, when you subscribe to Good Ranchers to get 100% American meat delivered, you'll

00:46:49.920 Carol Roth, who is the author of a new book called You Will Own Nothing.

00:46:57.400 It has been pushed back for a release date of July 11th.

00:47:01.760 I think my book, on kind of the same topic, they make nice bookends, comes out July 4th.

00:47:11.320 If you want to get Carol's book, you can go to carolroth.com forward slash Glenn and learn

00:47:20.120 all about the projects she has as well that will help you protect your wealth in the face

00:47:25.620 of forces working to take away your economic freedom.

00:47:29.660 Give me a couple of those, will you?

00:47:32.040 Carol, can we start with that?

00:47:34.500 What should people be doing right now?

00:47:38.140 Because I'm starting to get the feeling, this may not be over.

00:47:44.060 Yeah, I mean, I think on a personal basis, you want to be doubling down and diversifying

00:47:50.540 your portfolio because there's forces coming at us, as you said, from everywhere.

00:47:56.220 Hang on, talk to me about somebody who's never paid attention to their 401k,

00:48:00.360 and that is the extent of their portfolio.

00:48:04.380 Yes, well, I mean, obviously, this is not financial advice.

00:48:07.360 And anything that you do should be based on a discussion with a financial advisor.

00:48:12.080 If you have one based on your own objectives and risk tolerance, that's the caveat,

00:48:16.300 because otherwise the government's going to come after Glenn and I for giving out financial advice.

00:48:21.160 And we don't do that.

00:48:22.560 But I think that if you have all of your eggs in one basket, you're 100% exposed to stock,

00:48:29.000 or maybe, you know, you've never trusted the market, so you have all of your money sitting

00:48:32.980 in the mattress, you want to make sure that you have things in different form factors.

00:48:37.880 Certainly, if you have a home or if you have the opportunity to buy some land, that's a great thing.

00:48:44.860 If you have the opportunity to diversify with some physical metals, not, you know, an ETF,

00:48:51.080 but physical metals, gold, silver, et cetera, that's a good thing.

00:48:55.020 Having some exposure to less risky bonds, although less risky these days means, you know,

00:49:01.480 all different kinds of things, that's a good thing.

00:49:03.580 And making sure that you have, you know, kind of the basics, you know,

00:49:07.060 prep to be able to get through a difficult period is a good thing.

00:49:10.380 So it's really important that you have that level of diversification because, A,

00:49:14.920 we don't know, you know, where the issue is going to come from first.

00:49:18.800 And we also don't know the timeframe.

00:49:20.980 And I think that's the most important thing is that, you know, we see the trajectory that's

00:49:26.060 happening, but we don't know if this is something that's going to happen within six months or if

00:49:31.260 this takes, you know, a full 10 or 15 years to undo itself.

00:49:35.380 By 2025, mark my words, by 2025.

00:49:39.140 But there are all kinds of things that can happen in the meantime.

00:49:41.900 So you want to make sure that you have both the opportunity for capital appreciation, especially

00:49:47.400 since they are decreasing the purchasing power of your dollar and you want to make sure that

00:49:51.960 you're keeping pace with inflation and not losing out, but also focusing on capital

00:49:56.640 preservations, form factors that you can control in terms of your wealth so that, you know, you're

00:50:03.020 not SOL, so to speak, you know, dependent on the situation.

00:50:07.420 That's the best thing you can do right now is really diversify.

00:50:11.000 Okay.

00:50:11.260 Can you explain Credit Suisse for me?

00:50:14.740 Because that was having problems.

00:50:16.720 They had to run to their central bank to get $54 million or billion dollars.

00:50:22.020 And then I haven't heard boo about Deutsche Bank, which is always, I mean, in good times, it's like

00:50:31.500 we're about to go under.

00:50:33.460 Yes.

00:50:34.000 And then there's also First Republic, too, that's, you know, in the mix today.

00:50:37.880 So there's all different, all kinds of fun afoot in the global banking system.

00:50:42.280 All right.

00:50:42.360 So let's start with Credit Suisse.

00:50:44.180 And to be fair, Credit Suisse has been just a mess for a long time.

00:50:49.160 This is a bank that has been losing money.

00:50:51.820 I think their 2022 fiscal report showed that they lost something on the order equivalent

00:50:57.920 about $8 billion.

00:50:59.520 So this is not a bank that's known for being particularly well run.

00:51:03.500 They've gotten caught up in all kinds of scandals and messes.

00:51:07.120 I don't know if you remember, I think it was 2021, there was a hedge fund, Bill Wang's

00:51:12.800 hedge fund, who blew up Archegos.

00:51:14.880 And there were all different kinds of big banks that were involved.

00:51:19.140 And oh, by the way, the smart banks all got out of that really early and had almost no

00:51:23.380 exposure.

00:51:24.340 And one of the banks that was left holding the bag was Credit Suisse.

00:51:28.200 I think that their exposure that they said at the time was up to something like $5.5 billion.

00:51:33.260 So this is a bank that's had all kinds of issues.

00:51:37.460 Can I ask you a question?

00:51:39.320 Yes, go ahead.

00:51:39.900 We didn't have these problems when I was growing up.

00:51:43.820 And I mean, we did, but not like this.

00:51:49.940 When the banks were allowed to become stockbrokers at the same time they're a bank, isn't that

00:51:59.560 the real problem?

00:52:00.520 Shouldn't we separate these banks from stock houses or, I mean, investment houses?

00:52:06.300 Investment banks.

00:52:07.020 Yeah.

00:52:07.280 So this actually happened while I was an investment banker.

00:52:10.120 I worked for a really great investment bank that once this key provision of Glass-Steagall

00:52:15.020 that separated investment banks from the banking system was repealed in the Clinton years,

00:52:20.300 you know, it was a free-for-all.

00:52:22.320 And we got gobbled up first by Nations Bank, and then they merged with Bank of America.

00:52:26.860 So I went through this, you know, kind of on a real-time basis.

00:52:30.340 So I think there's sort of two different aspects to it.

00:52:33.340 One is that's certainly the issue.

00:52:35.820 We know that more consolidation creates more systemic risk.

00:52:39.460 If you have things spread out, they may happen more frequently, but they're smaller in nature.

00:52:43.940 When you consolidate things together, then that creates too big to fail in a real situation.

00:52:50.100 You know, so I think that that's kind of the issue.

00:52:54.100 And then the other one is just the financialization of everything.

00:52:58.080 If you think about what's happened over the last decades, you know, with derivative products

00:53:03.800 and more risks and the, you know, the finance on top of finance, the system has really become

00:53:09.620 very bastardized and has gotten away from kind of the core of what it was meant to do.

00:53:14.880 And if you look at the United States in terms of, you know, our GDP, what is our biggest

00:53:20.840 industry?

00:53:21.820 21% of our GDP is financial services, including insurance.

00:53:26.440 So, you know, there's been a good side to that, but there's also obviously been a lot

00:53:31.580 of problems.

00:53:31.860 So Carl Icahn said, what, yesterday, day before, and there's a few people that are saying this,

00:53:39.360 that the bailout of Silicon Valley Bank is really the moment that we are no longer a free market,

00:53:50.620 you know, kind of system.

00:53:54.200 You know, I saw that.

00:53:55.980 I think I saw Ken Griffin say, and I don't know if Carl Icahn said it, perhaps he said that

00:54:00.160 as well.

00:54:00.760 I mean, it's really laughable.

00:54:02.540 I mean, the moment that we stopped being a capitalist system was back, you know, on Black 0.74

00:54:08.620 Monday when the Fed stepped in and decided that they were going to be able to support

00:54:13.340 the market no matter what happened.

00:54:14.820 And that accelerated, you know, with abandon during the Great Recession financial crisis.

00:54:19.660 I mean, up until that point, we never had the Fed interfere in the markets, you know, the

00:54:26.060 way that we're seeing now.

00:54:27.260 It wasn't when, as I said, when I was growing up as a now recovering investment banker, but back

00:54:31.740 at the time, like we never paid attention to what the Fed did.

00:54:35.700 It was like a mechanism of, you know, of the markets, but it wasn't that important.

00:54:39.700 We focused on fundamentals.

00:54:41.300 Now, you know, that's the God center of the market.

00:54:44.500 We are letting a handful of people play God with the economy, and they're not doing a very

00:54:49.120 good job, by the way.

00:54:50.120 So the idea that these people who have benefited from nearly 15 years of low interest rate policy

00:54:57.280 and easy money that has transferred money from Main Street to Wall Street now think that,

00:55:03.240 you know, somebody getting their payroll and not having that blown up is the end of capitalism

00:55:09.040 is really, really, you know, kind of distasteful.

00:55:12.800 Let me just I want to touch on the Fed thing, the question that I had.

00:55:17.440 But I think it's so geeky that really, is it something to worry about that?

00:55:23.640 Let me just ask you that.

00:55:24.680 Is it anything to worry about what I shared with you on the Fed?

00:55:28.780 So, I mean, it's just derivative of the fact that the Fed has become something to worry

00:55:35.120 about.

00:55:35.520 They are a menace to society.

00:55:37.940 Their role has grown into something.

00:55:40.520 You know, it's kind of like Dr.

00:55:41.780 Frankenstein, like we need to stop the monster.

00:55:44.280 And the powers that they have, you know, are just completely screwing up and creating all

00:55:51.580 these ripple effects that clearly either they can't see or they want to have happen.

00:55:56.360 And either way, the outcome is not great for the average American.

00:55:59.940 OK, I want to switch and talk about the uniform commercial code.

00:56:06.720 This is the redefining money.

00:56:10.120 And I have talked to legislators all over the country and they say they have never seen

00:56:17.380 coordinated pushback, even on ESG like this.

00:56:21.480 They said there is just massive power and money behind this, trying to convince everybody.

00:56:27.760 Oh, no, no, no.

00:56:28.480 It's no big deal.

00:56:30.380 Are you are you up on it enough to be able to talk about it?

00:56:35.180 So let me tell you what I do know in terms of and I'm not a lawyer.

00:56:40.960 I don't even play one on Glenn Beck's program.

00:56:43.560 But what I do know is in order for us to have a central bank digital currency, it needs approval

00:56:50.920 by Congress.

00:56:51.980 So the more things that we have that start to change the definition of what money is and

00:56:58.440 put that on a path to be stuck in the back of some bill and for nobody to know that this

00:57:05.100 has happened is a really scary thing.

00:57:08.320 And while, as I said, I cannot interpret the legal language because I don't have that expertise

00:57:12.440 to say, is that would that count?

00:57:15.300 It kind of really sounds like that.

00:57:17.580 Yeah.

00:57:18.360 And it's and it's blocking the way for cryptocurrency like Bitcoin.

00:57:23.620 It will not be considered money, only the central bank digital currency.

00:57:29.920 And I don't know if you saw last night's show with Steve Forbes, but he was, I mean, very

00:57:35.640 animated on cryptocurrency from the federal government.

00:57:39.580 He's he agreed with what you and I talked about yesterday.

00:57:42.780 End of freedom.

00:57:44.500 Full stop.

00:57:45.380 And let's also talk about first of all, love Steve Forbes, longtime good friend.

00:57:49.400 He's a really, really smart and good, good guy.

00:57:51.600 But here's the interesting thing is that a digital currency from the Fed actually isn't

00:57:57.700 a cryptocurrency because a cryptocurrency is key property is decentralization and a digital

00:58:04.800 dollar is full centralization, the full taking of your freedom.

00:58:09.300 So this is exactly what they're doing, Glenn.

00:58:11.020 They're trying to conflate it.

00:58:12.220 They're saying people are really into crypto.

00:58:14.640 They know it's a good thing.

00:58:15.740 They know it's a pushback.

00:58:16.660 Let's just confuse everybody and let let them think, oh, this is a crypto.

00:58:22.300 We're just getting into crypto.

00:58:23.740 No, it's not crypto.

00:58:25.000 It takes the whole reason and purpose that people are into crypto is because they do not

00:58:29.840 trust government fiat currency and they want to have that decentralization.

00:58:34.320 The digital dollar is even though it may live on a blockchain, it may use some of the same

00:58:39.680 technology, it is entirely centralized and it means the government will have absolute control

00:58:45.520 of everything that you do because they control their money, your money.

00:58:49.620 And if they control your money, they control you.

00:58:52.800 All right.

00:58:53.400 Let me take a one minute break and then I want to give you an update on where all of this

00:58:58.120 stands in your your statehouse.

00:59:00.820 Carol, thank you so much for everything.

00:59:03.460 My pleasure.

00:59:04.160 Thanks for having me.

00:59:05.160 You bet.

00:59:05.440 All right.

00:59:06.220 Tunnel to Towers Foundation is our sponsor ever since the fateful day of September 2001.

00:59:12.840 The resolve of the United States was put to the ultimate test.

00:59:16.840 It was the last time we were really together on something.

00:59:19.700 Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been on a mission since then.

00:59:24.260 To do good and to remind us what we said to ourselves, we wouldn't forget.

00:59:29.820 We don't want to forget the military members that fall or injured.

00:59:34.660 We don't want to forget the firefighters and the cops that are in the line of duty and

00:59:40.380 they're shot.

00:59:41.480 They're killed.

00:59:42.640 They're wounded.

00:59:43.520 The people who are trying to put a house fire out are killed or badly, badly wounded.

00:59:50.400 America's heroes and their families are taken care of by Tunnel to Towers.

00:59:54.980 It's really, truly just a fantastic organization.

01:00:00.200 They're doing the right thing and they really survive by you helping.

01:00:05.580 They have housing now and services for homeless veterans all over the country.

01:00:10.540 This is just one of the things they're doing.

01:00:13.340 And there's a lot of homeless veterans.

01:00:16.400 Would you be willing to donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers?

01:00:20.340 It's t2t.org.

01:00:26.060 T2t.org.

01:00:28.260 Ten seconds.

01:00:28.800 Station ID.

01:00:39.880 All right.

01:00:40.620 I want to talk to you about what's called the Uniform Commercial Code.

01:00:45.440 This is just new language.

01:00:47.820 It's about 150 pages, 200.

01:00:49.340 They're usually very light.

01:00:51.080 These are updated from time to time.

01:00:53.960 And it is just being rubber stamped.

01:00:57.780 And there is all kinds of money behind this.

01:01:00.200 And it cannot pass.

01:01:02.400 It cannot pass.

01:01:03.920 We cannot redefine money and expand that to include digital currency, but the digital currency

01:01:13.700 from the Federal Reserve.

01:01:15.100 There's conservative states where it is already passed one chamber.

01:01:20.600 It's got to be stopped.

01:01:22.460 North Dakota, HB 1082 passed in both chambers.

01:01:26.800 A veto is needed.

01:01:28.020 The governor has three days.

01:01:31.640 Once it's given to him, you've got to get on the phone with your North Dakota governor

01:01:35.340 to stop that and have him veto like the governor of South Dakota. 0.85

01:01:40.500 Nebraska passed the committee in first floor vote.

01:01:43.480 There's only one chamber in Nebraska, so that looks like it's going to pass.

01:01:49.260 Montana, it passed in the Senate.

01:01:51.220 Indiana passed in the Senate.

01:01:52.700 Kentucky passed in the Senate.

01:01:54.140 Now it's in the House.

01:01:55.580 Arizona passed in the House.

01:01:57.000 This has got to be stopped.

01:01:59.920 Other conservative states, Oklahoma passed it out of the House.

01:02:04.080 New Hampshire has it in committee.

01:02:05.500 Tennessee, Tennessee, dead in the House, but referred to a committee in the Senate.

01:02:10.200 Texas, it's in committee.

01:02:11.780 Arkansas, in committee.

01:02:13.580 Missouri, in committee.

01:02:15.840 These must not pass.

01:02:21.160 The only places it's dead is West Virginia and South Dakota.

01:02:25.700 It was vetoed.

01:02:26.960 The blue states, Colorado passed it in both chambers.

01:02:31.640 Democratic governor, so no hope of a veto there.

01:02:34.900 Hawaii passed, New Mexico passed, Washington passed, Massachusetts passed the Senate, Illinois out of committee, California, I don't have any information on.

01:02:47.020 But they're going to get all of them.

01:02:48.780 They're going to get all the blue states.

01:02:50.300 They're just going to rubber stamp them.

01:02:52.100 But please call your Republicans and say, I'm not being paranoid.

01:03:00.560 I am advising you.

01:03:04.380 You're supposed to represent me.

01:03:07.800 And for me and my family, we want you to not vote for the UCC.

01:03:14.760 And they're getting all of these bankers and everybody else coming in saying, oh, no, come on, Bill.

01:03:23.760 You trust me.

01:03:25.180 They did this on ESG.

01:03:26.720 By the way, I want to find the DeSantis story here.

01:03:34.080 DeSantis is about to unveil an alliance with 18 states to combat Biden's woke ESG garbage.

01:03:44.420 We'll give you more on that.

01:03:46.060 But he aims to push back on environmental, social and corporate governance agenda.

01:03:51.980 And he's teamed up with 18 states.

01:03:55.500 These are the kinds of things that have to be done.

01:03:58.980 Again, it's the UCC code.

01:04:02.480 It must not pass.

01:04:05.780 Call your statehouse and your governor.

01:04:19.020 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:04:20.600 You talk your way out of pain.

01:04:24.420 If you happen to be, you know, living with it, you can talk your way.

01:04:27.580 I tried.

01:04:28.440 I'm feeling good today.

01:04:29.700 I'm feeling really good today.

01:04:31.000 Pain.

01:04:31.320 I don't feel any pain.

01:04:32.040 I feel good.

01:04:32.900 I feel good.

01:04:33.600 Yeah.

01:04:34.060 Yeah.

01:04:35.100 You can't talk yourself out of it.

01:04:36.980 You can't reason with it.

01:04:38.040 You just have to just keep trying to do things and try not to wince.

01:04:44.520 That is until I met Relief Factor.

01:04:46.980 My wife told me, I'm not going to let you lie.

01:04:52.160 Pat, you know that voice.

01:04:53.900 I mean, Jackie sounds the same.

01:04:56.260 Yeah.

01:04:56.440 I'm not going to let you lie.

01:04:57.940 Mm-hmm.

01:04:58.400 Oh, my gosh.

01:04:59.100 And so you do it just to get them off your back.

01:05:02.320 Mm-hmm.

01:05:03.400 And occasionally, they are right.

01:05:07.560 I mean, it's not very often, right?

01:05:10.300 It's only like 98% of the time.

01:05:12.720 Right.

01:05:12.740 Right.

01:05:13.320 Okay.

01:05:13.760 That's not.

01:05:14.520 That's not 100.

01:05:15.420 Right.

01:05:16.160 So anyway, I started taking Relief Factor.

01:05:18.800 I got out of pain.

01:05:19.860 Please, just try it.

01:05:21.640 Or I'm going to send my wife to your house. 1.00

01:05:24.700 ReliefFactor.com.

01:05:25.780 That's ReliefFactor.com.

01:05:27.840 If that doesn't work, my wife and Pat's wife are both coming.

01:05:33.920 Check out my show, Pat Gray Unleashed, every weekday from 7 to 9 Eastern, live, or anytime

01:05:39.980 and anywhere you get your podcast.

01:05:57.840 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:06:05.100 Last night on my TV special, I took time to explain how this banking crisis has happened

01:06:11.360 and what it means for you and me and what I believe they are moving towards.

01:06:17.320 I'm not an economist, obviously, and chances are you're not either.

01:06:21.460 And it's really complex and in the weeds, but I tried to break it down into a way for

01:06:29.120 everybody to be able to understand because once you understand the basics of it, you

01:06:36.940 get it.

01:06:38.980 You get it.

01:06:39.600 I talked to my niece, who is so sweet, talked to her last night, and she said, thank you for

01:06:48.640 explaining this in a way I understand.

01:06:51.940 It's very, very simple and very important that you learn it.

01:06:58.420 I'm going to give my email subscribers exclusive access to all of the research documents that

01:07:04.060 went into last night's TV special.

01:07:06.100 It explains everything in simple terms.

01:07:09.500 Our government's reckless spending and how that is only going to make things worse.

01:07:14.240 It is affecting the big boys and the little boys, and there will be ramifications of all

01:07:23.760 of this, and it will play into the deterioration and destruction, I believe, of our financial

01:07:30.680 system.

01:07:31.620 In the end, you can find all of that.

01:07:33.540 Just go to glennbeck.com, put in your email address for the newsletter.

01:07:37.060 You get it every day.

01:07:38.000 It's all of my show prep.

01:07:39.320 I only get to about 10% of the stories that I read in the morning, but they're all really

01:07:45.500 important and had already been whittled down, so please sign up for the newsletter.

01:07:51.820 You can get it at glennbeck.com.

01:07:54.320 Now, there's a couple of other things that I want to alert you to that I think are very

01:08:03.580 important.

01:08:04.020 One, this is coming from Canada.

01:08:08.660 The prime minister is now taking on new legislation.

01:08:14.760 It's Bill C-11 in Canada, or it's called the Online Streaming Act, and it's a way to prioritize

01:08:23.900 the needs and interests of Canadians.

01:08:26.520 And they're claiming now the act is going to ensure online algorithms promote Canadian

01:08:33.180 content on social media and streaming platforms like Netflix and Disney and Spotify.

01:08:40.180 Yet, when a multi-partisan group of Canadian senators proposed an amendment to the legislation

01:08:45.440 to protect what individuals say online on social media, no government oversight of, you

01:08:53.560 know, social media, they rejected the amendment.

01:08:58.020 So, under the current iteration of the bill, user-generated content is included in the scope

01:09:05.600 of government oversight.

01:09:07.260 The bill also makes it clear that the purpose of these new government powers is to support

01:09:12.420 countering disinformation.

01:09:15.260 It also specifically mentions serving the interests of Canadians from radicalized communities

01:09:20.220 and Canadians of diverse ethno-cultural background, socioeconomic statuses, abilities and disabilities,

01:09:28.520 sexual orientation, gender identities, and expression and ages.

01:09:33.680 So, it is the ultimate woke document.

01:09:37.980 This would give the Canadian government unprecedented control over speech in Canada.

01:09:45.400 But, in Canada, Canada's gone.

01:09:49.920 I mean, they've just succumbed to this.

01:09:53.000 Well, what's the difference?

01:09:54.340 They're just ahead of us.

01:09:55.380 Yeah.

01:09:55.820 Right.

01:09:56.140 We're doing the same things.

01:09:58.080 We are.

01:09:58.780 We're just behind them.

01:10:01.180 And we're trying desperately to catch up.

01:10:03.080 I know.

01:10:03.480 Well, if people would wake up, if your friends and neighbors would wake up, if we could find

01:10:07.920 a way to get them to understand before panic, before panic hits, would be, excuse me, would

01:10:17.020 be very, very nice.

01:10:19.060 Now, there is a new study out, a new poll that shows Americans are not seeing Russia the way

01:10:28.220 they were just recently.

01:10:29.480 No, they're not quite as concerned about Russia as we once were.

01:10:34.820 And, you know, it's kind of understandable because we've seen the way their military has

01:10:40.620 performed against Ukraine, which everybody thought in a day or two, or maybe at the most

01:10:46.020 a couple of weeks, they were going to completely overwhelm Ukraine. 0.92

01:10:49.460 And that just didn't happen.

01:10:51.100 And now you see estimates of, the lowest estimate on fatalities of Russian troops I've seen is

01:10:58.120 60,000.

01:10:59.020 The highest is 150,000.

01:11:00.940 That's crazy.

01:11:01.700 It's unbelievable in a year.

01:11:03.560 Just so you know, in a year, that's what the entire Vietnam War loss was.

01:11:07.860 56,000.

01:11:08.800 56,000.

01:11:09.840 In 13 years, they've had more than that in Ukraine.

01:11:14.580 So now, fewer Americans see Russia's military power as a critical threat to the United States.

01:11:20.020 So I think that's both good and bad because it might embolden many Americans to support

01:11:26.160 whatever we're doing.

01:11:28.320 Lindsey Graham?

01:11:28.940 Yeah.

01:11:29.580 Jeez.

01:11:30.620 Yes.

01:11:31.540 Lindsey Graham.

01:11:32.360 When will conservatives say enough with Lindsey Graham?

01:11:37.740 My gosh, that guy.

01:11:39.560 Yeah.

01:11:41.480 He thinks that we should go after Russia because they attacked a drone.

01:11:46.520 Yeah.

01:11:46.840 Yeah.

01:11:47.260 Okay.

01:11:47.580 Good.

01:11:47.980 Good.

01:11:48.260 Yeah.

01:11:48.440 Let's do that.

01:11:50.240 Um, there's, uh, also this out today, tons of uranium.

01:11:56.420 Now, usually when you say tons of something, especially like uranium, it's not like tons

01:12:01.480 of fun.

01:12:02.540 No, or tons of food.

01:12:03.980 I just ate tons of food.

01:12:05.380 Yeah.

01:12:05.540 You probably really didn't.

01:12:06.920 Yeah.

01:12:07.160 You hope that tons isn't literal.

01:12:10.360 Uh, this time it is tons, 2.5 tons of Ukraine, uh, of uranium missing now from a Libya 0.84

01:12:19.460 site.

01:12:21.060 Now, where did I put that 2.5 tons of uranium?

01:12:27.260 I know I had.

01:12:28.420 Is it in that drawer next to you, Pat?

01:12:30.340 Where is that?

01:12:31.380 I, hang on.

01:12:32.320 I, yeah, I mean, nope.

01:12:34.000 No, I thought I put it there.

01:12:35.060 Looking by the pins and now it's not there.

01:12:37.800 I don't know what happened to it.

01:12:39.880 Okay.

01:12:40.800 Um, that's not good.

01:12:42.920 That's not good.

01:12:44.620 Um, where could it have possibly gone?

01:12:47.380 By the way, did you see that China, Iran, and Russia are doing military operations together

01:12:55.060 together now?

01:12:56.600 Yeah.

01:12:56.740 Isn't that fun?

01:12:57.340 No, no, seriously.

01:12:58.720 That's fun.

01:12:59.160 No, it's good.

01:13:00.000 No, it's really, I'm.

01:13:01.480 You'd like to see friends get together and, you know, play around a little bit with their

01:13:05.220 toys.

01:13:05.720 It's fun.

01:13:06.560 It's fun.

01:13:07.080 Yeah.

01:13:07.440 No, it's, uh, uh, it's good.

01:13:09.920 Um, on the border, let me give you some good news.

01:13:13.360 Texas has a unique plan to close the border.

01:13:17.720 Hmm.

01:13:19.120 Um, the, uh, state legislature is reportedly finalizing some new laws that would empower

01:13:25.240 state law enforcement to take a much more active and aggressive role in securing the

01:13:30.700 border and ensuring the safety of Texans living in the affected areas.

01:13:34.720 The plan will potentially include an entirely new police force dedicated to blocking illegal

01:13:42.060 migrants access to Texas.

01:13:44.740 Texas lawmakers are proposing legislation that makes it a state felony to cross the border

01:13:51.240 from Mexico illegally and create a new border police force that could deputize private citizens.

01:13:58.220 This is the latest in the state's continued push to test the limits of the federal government's

01:14:02.480 authority over immigration.

01:14:04.020 We just had Ken Paxton, our attorney general on what yesterday, day before, and he said

01:14:09.180 he is hoping that he, the, the legislature will give him the power to be challenged, uh,

01:14:16.120 by the federal government because he believes we can win that fight because they have just

01:14:22.720 given our border up, uh, and it is an invasion.

01:14:28.300 And that's the only way constitutionally that states can take care of their own border problem.

01:14:33.020 Um, if the government, if the government's not doing it and they're not doing it, right.

01:14:37.680 Um, so the, the felony is usually a federal offense.

01:14:44.820 However, states can make a state felony as well.

01:14:49.340 So, you know, the left is all up in arms about this, uh, you know, gosh, we can't stop the,

01:14:56.600 let's not stop the flow of illegal aliens and, and fentanyl and human trafficking.

01:15:02.000 We need more children to be trafficked.

01:15:04.780 Potential terrorism.

01:15:05.700 How many people from Russia, China, the middle East in known terrorist nations have come across

01:15:12.140 the border.

01:15:12.980 I mean, it was a staggering number that the border patrol released last year.

01:15:17.540 It's unbelievable.

01:15:18.420 We have not seen the effect.

01:15:20.740 I think we'll see it.

01:15:21.960 If we get a Republican president, we will see the effect.

01:15:25.560 The radicals that have been sent by Iran, by China, by all of these countries that hate

01:15:32.600 us.

01:15:33.320 They came in, uh, in the cover of night over our borders and you know, they're not those

01:15:40.180 people that were on the terrorist list.

01:15:42.580 They didn't suddenly go, Oh, you know, it's an open border in America and I just love their

01:15:47.640 lifestyle so much.

01:15:48.840 I'm going to give up this whole terror thing.

01:15:50.420 That's not what's happening.

01:15:52.600 They're here.

01:15:53.620 They're doing something.

01:15:55.400 They mean us harm.

01:15:56.080 They mean us harm.

01:15:57.780 Yeah.

01:15:58.940 God, I, you know, I can't, I just can't take it from, you know, I've been, I've been telling

01:16:04.100 you about operation, uh, underground railroad and the Nazarene fund.

01:16:09.340 I've, I've told you about it, uh, for, I don't know how long, but this goes in with my,

01:16:17.000 um, abortion activism, I guess, I just, we have got to find favor in the Lord's eyes.

01:16:28.540 And so it's not transactional.

01:16:30.860 We, we have to do the things that put us on his side.

01:16:35.160 So we have to look for people who are struggling, look for people that are in pain, try to serve

01:16:40.640 them, try to help them in an honest effort.

01:16:43.560 And I can't imagine that the Lord is going to be like, oh, oh yeah, I didn't even notice

01:16:50.240 that.

01:16:50.720 That was you, huh?

01:16:52.060 When it comes to stopping child sex trafficking, stopping the death of his little children,

01:17:02.100 his most innocent ones.

01:17:04.420 I can't imagine that he's turning a blind eye to that.

01:17:07.420 We need to repent, turn back to him and say, look, we get it.

01:17:10.800 We want to be on your side.

01:17:13.000 And I mean, America is the number one consumer of child pornography.

01:17:20.600 I mean, gang, we are not the shining city on the hill.

01:17:25.800 We are not.

01:17:27.560 And we're about to become a byword.

01:17:31.120 We're about to fall.

01:17:32.520 And everyone will know why, because we lost it.

01:17:39.180 We lost our morality.

01:17:41.240 We lost our decency.

01:17:43.920 The things that we are doing now just in Washington is so far away from reality.

01:17:51.940 It's, it is a comedic show at some point.

01:17:57.240 It's springtime for Hitler. 0.99

01:17:59.220 It's that crazy.

01:18:03.040 You can just write the things that are happening now, put some music to it, and it would be

01:18:09.260 a comedy in a few years.

01:18:13.180 But if we don't wake up to that now, we are not going to be there for the opening of it.

01:18:19.020 So I support Greg Abbott in Texas and what they're doing, and I would urge you to call

01:18:30.220 your legislature in Texas and say, pass that bill.

01:18:34.240 Pass that bill.

01:18:35.460 Give him the power to be able to stop the flow of illegal drugs and people and trafficking

01:18:41.860 here in Texas.

01:18:43.760 Back in just a second.

01:18:44.760 How many times are you going to sit there at your desk at home, looking down at the monthly

01:18:50.420 expenses and wondering, geez, I mean, how are we going to do it?

01:18:54.300 How are we going to do it?

01:18:55.220 Man, that is the worst feeling.

01:18:59.340 I want you to do one thing, and I know you, well, maybe you're not like me, because I avoid

01:19:05.900 everything.

01:19:06.600 I avoid everything that is like, you know, going to be tough.

01:19:09.980 I hate that.

01:19:12.440 But, you know, if I'm sitting there and I'm looking at how we're going to make ends meet,

01:19:15.560 I'm just like, it's just magically going to change, and I'm going to work harder and

01:19:18.780 whatever, and nothing really changes, and it gets me into even more trouble.

01:19:23.320 I urge you to do the opposite.

01:19:25.700 I urge you not to delay.

01:19:28.080 I urge you to call American Financing right now.

01:19:31.200 If you own your house, this is a family-owned mortgage company that's in it for you.

01:19:35.680 They're saving people just like you an average of $700 a month.

01:19:39.720 If you got $700 a month and were able to delay two mortgage payments, and you could close

01:19:46.560 in as little as 10 days, would that not help you out on your finances a lot?

01:19:53.380 Please, this could be the key to turning things around for you so you don't get behind the

01:19:57.200 eight ball even more.

01:19:58.600 American Financing, 800-906-2440.

01:20:12.520 Join the conversation.

01:20:14.500 888-727-BECK.

01:20:17.480 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:20:33.240 So the Pentagon has now claimed an alien mothership could send ships to Earth in a research paper.

01:20:51.620 Officials at the Department of Defense declared that it is possible for aliens to send small

01:20:58.220 probes to our solar system and to Earth on missions similar to the ones conducted by NASA.

01:21:04.620 This was written by a couple of, you know, smart eggheads and released last week.

01:21:10.700 It's centered on the physical constraints of unidentified aerial phenomena and claimed that a mothership already

01:21:17.000 in our solar system could send probes to Earth.

01:21:23.260 It goes on saying, you know, that we've probably already had our first visit from an interstellar traveler.

01:21:32.940 And they say this is, they were talking about the, remember that cigar-shaped?

01:21:39.160 Mm-hmm.

01:21:40.200 Umwa-mua or something?

01:21:41.680 Yeah.

01:21:42.220 From what the Hawaiians found it.

01:21:44.180 Yeah.

01:21:44.400 Yeah.

01:21:44.520 Um, it's orbit was different than those in Earth's solar system.

01:21:49.500 It also slowed down and then sped up, which doesn't happen.

01:21:53.760 Can't happen with a natural.

01:21:55.340 Right.

01:21:55.960 Object.

01:21:56.520 And, uh, they, they believe that it may have been either a scout, uh, which would be kind

01:22:06.440 of scary if that's what they're building as a scout, because that was huge, wasn't it?

01:22:09.680 It was.

01:22:10.180 Yeah.

01:22:10.800 Or it may have been the mothership.

01:22:12.440 I, you know, at times I wonder if people in the Pentagon aren't like, you know, guys,

01:22:19.760 we need some distractions.

01:22:22.240 I mean, the people really need some distractions.

01:22:24.360 Just, let's just, let's give them what they want.

01:22:28.380 You know, hey, aliens are real.

01:22:31.160 You know, just because, you know, it's so weird that these things are coming out and no

01:22:35.640 one talks about it.

01:22:37.260 Yeah.

01:22:38.100 You know, when I was growing up or even 20 years ago, these things are coming out.

01:22:42.440 Stories would have been huge.

01:22:43.700 Everywhere.

01:22:44.560 Front page on every newspaper.

01:22:46.260 And have you told people about these things that are coming from the Pentagon and they're

01:22:49.580 like, no, what's that?

01:22:51.660 That didn't happen.

01:22:52.320 You're like, yes, it did.

01:22:53.900 It was in the New York Times.

01:22:55.700 Not that that adds any credibility, but it's been out.

01:22:59.600 They think aliens are real.

01:23:01.760 It's crazy.

01:23:04.060 It's just crazy.

01:23:06.520 So I, again, am hoping for the scout to be real.

01:23:13.300 Please, come down.

01:23:14.460 Fix it.

01:23:14.840 Keep it.

01:23:16.100 We'll be right back.

01:23:46.100 We'll be right back.

01:24:16.100 We'll be right back.

01:24:18.100 If you lose hope after hearing those words, your hope is misplaced.

01:24:26.100 What always saves America?

01:24:28.100 What saves America is Americans.

01:24:32.100 At the last minute, when all seems lost, we finally get it and go, oh, and we pull together.

01:24:39.100 Now, they've done everything they can to make sure that we we don't stay together.

01:24:44.100 But I have a sneaking suspicion that coalition that they have built is falling apart.

01:24:51.040 Courage and hope.

01:26:06.860 A letter to mainstream straddler.

01:26:10.720 Live not by half lies by Margaret Anna Alice.

01:26:14.820 I get it.

01:26:15.360 You don't want to be called a conspiracy theorist.

01:26:18.300 You don't want to be tarred as an anti-vaxxer, a science denier, far right wing extremist.

01:26:23.800 You have your reputation to protect, your credibility, your grant funding.

01:26:27.860 So you just water it down.

01:26:30.240 You tiptoe around the truth.

01:26:32.100 You don't go there.

01:26:33.800 And the philanthropists, the tyrants, the big liars, the enablers continue to profit, continue to conspire, continue to torture, continue to slaughter.

01:26:43.140 They'll tell you right to your face what they're doing.

01:26:48.200 But if you then turn around and quote them, you're the crazy one.

01:26:52.140 If you ask why a child, a teen, an athlete, other healthy adults suddenly had a heart attack or got turbo cancer or died, you are the truly disgusting one.

01:27:05.080 If you provide scientific evidence that a warp speed experimental injection being peddled by a trillion dollar industry in collusion with governments, federal agencies, the media and big tech might be dangerous.

01:27:22.020 If you ask what's causing the sudden deaths and injuries that began surging in 2021 in hopes of preventing future such tragedies, you're just morally reprehensible.

01:27:38.820 You point out that maybe we should think twice about pushing a product, you know, estimated to have killed 13 million human beings and counting.

01:27:46.900 Well, you're the major killing force globally and guilty of undermining public confidence.

01:27:52.940 If you call genocide, genocide, you're the enemy, the misinformation spreader, the anti-Semite.

01:27:58.300 If you dare point out never again is already happening, you get inquisitioned, even though the Holocaust survivors and their relatives agree with you. 0.94

01:28:10.120 You know, you're living in a world of lies when the mob is more enraged at the whistleblowers revealing the deceptions, corruption and murder than they are at the lying liars, the corrupt corruptors, the murdering murderers themselves.

01:28:24.500 Snowden said, when exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime, you're being ruled by criminals.

01:28:31.760 And guess what?

01:28:33.100 Once you start calling, once they start calling you those hideous names, you realize they're nothing more than magicians smoke.

01:28:41.860 You gradually start to give fewer and fewer craps about things.

01:28:47.040 You know, you've hit zero when you feel the exhilarating liberation that comes from shouting the unfettered truth.

01:28:55.160 That's the words can never hurt you stage and you become untouchable and you start collecting libels like purple hearts.

01:29:02.380 And the more scars you can count, the more evidence of your efficacy, your threat to the hegemony.

01:29:09.040 That's when you can truly live and by truth, not by lies.

01:29:13.520 If enough of us stand up and do that, we can hold the perpetrators accountable and we can find justice.

01:29:20.740 Once you're living in alignment with your values, you'll feel the deepest joy fathomable.

01:29:25.540 And when COVID criminals have been found guilty, when the spells dissolve, the people will gradually awaken from their coma and recognize you for the hero you are or not.

01:29:38.020 Most will be too ashamed to admit that they were conned, to realize they shielded fascist tyrants and attacked those trying to rescue them.

01:29:47.560 Few find that courageous humility within themselves to acknowledge their complicity in totalitarianism.

01:29:53.500 And so they will swath themselves in soothing denial and lash out to anyone who tries to puncture it.

01:29:59.840 But you will keep trying anyway, because that is what truth tellers do.

01:30:05.300 Your bravery will outlive you.

01:30:08.760 Your words will remain like candles lighting the path for future truth droppers.

01:30:14.420 And you will be at peace in life and beyond.

01:30:19.700 I read that a couple of weeks ago and I said to my staff, I need to talk to this woman. 0.75

01:30:24.800 She is amazing.

01:30:27.340 Her name is Margaret Anna Alice.

01:30:30.340 And she's on the program with us now.

01:30:32.400 Hi, Margaret Ann.

01:30:33.580 Hi, Glenn.

01:30:35.580 Thank you so much for that enthusiastic reading.

01:30:38.480 That was really sweet.

01:30:39.660 I, you know, you, I saw a bio of you and who you admire and look up to as heroes.

01:30:49.880 And there are many of the same people that I look up to.

01:30:54.780 And Stolas Nietzsche, and this just screams Stolas Nietzsche to me.

01:30:58.180 Well, that was quite an honor when I heard you say that.

01:31:00.800 Yeah.

01:31:01.720 So tell me about your philosophy.

01:31:05.940 You just started a new Substack, right?

01:31:08.980 Well, actually, it's been almost two years since I started it.

01:31:12.620 Oh my gosh, really?

01:31:13.420 Yeah, April 2021 is when I first launched it.

01:31:18.920 And I just, I started it with a piece called A Primer for the Propagandized, Fear is the Mind Killer.

01:31:25.200 And I had, you know, from the beginning of the COVID scandemic or whatever you want to call it, it was quite obvious that the propaganda was being used to psychologically manipulate people, you know, create a state of fear and panic.

01:31:46.000 So people would obey and essentially following Biderman's chart of coercion, like a recipe.

01:31:53.360 And so I was initially attempting to sort of wake people up to this fact by reaching out through, you know, online, local communities, next door, things like that.

01:32:05.680 And I eventually found that the censorship was so extreme, it was basically impossible to share any references, you know, as soon as I'd post a comment, if I had a link in there to substantiating evidence, it would get disappeared within minutes.

01:32:21.840 And so I had, somebody had posted something at Nextdoor that basically said, you know, these masks are not about health, they're about fear and obedience and obedience training, essentially.

01:32:36.820 And so I wrote a pretty lengthy comment in response to that.

01:32:40.820 And by the time I was getting ready to post it, that post had been disappeared.

01:32:45.860 And so I read it to my husband and he said, you know, you should submit that to Off Guardian.

01:32:53.280 And so I thought, OK, well, I need a place to house it.

01:32:57.440 And I've been thinking about creating a substack anyway.

01:33:00.740 So just in an afternoon, just threw together a substack, published that piece, submitted it to Off Guardian and kind of forgot about it for a couple of weeks.

01:33:10.320 And then Kit Knightley got back to me and said that they would love to publish it.

01:33:15.820 And then that sort of kicked off my publishing career and my readership snowballed from there.

01:33:24.840 What is the reaction to you?

01:33:28.400 Because you are so clear.

01:33:30.940 You're obviously extraordinarily bright and well read.

01:33:34.520 You obviously know philosophy and history really, really well.

01:33:41.540 It'd be hard to argue with you.

01:33:45.300 What is the reaction?

01:33:48.020 Well, from my readership, you know, very enthusiastic, extremely appreciative.

01:33:54.840 One of the things you probably notice that I do a lot is essentially I provide substantiating evidence for practically every word.

01:34:03.900 Yeah, I know.

01:34:05.520 I have hyperlinks.

01:34:08.180 So I show my homework.

01:34:10.680 And that way, if anybody questions it or wants to explore more on their own, I've created basically all these rabbit holes that people can go down.

01:34:20.300 And my readers are, you know, they love that.

01:34:24.300 Some people find it irritating, which I understand.

01:34:27.420 You know, I have to tell you, you know, the letter to the mainstream straddler that I just read.

01:34:33.260 It has a lot of things I had to cut out for time, but it has a lot of things like Wampeter that I had never heard before.

01:34:39.900 And I follow the hyperlink and I'm like, oh, my gosh.

01:34:43.240 And so I was only annoyed because your one article took up about an hour of my time before I realized, wait a minute, I've got a life.

01:34:51.160 But it is, it's a great, great education.

01:34:56.880 What is your, what's your goal?

01:34:58.780 Well, when I started my sub stack, my mission, I articulated as I want to awaken the sleeping before tyranny.

01:35:09.040 Well, actually, I should say unmasked totalitarianism and awaken the sleeping before tyranny triumphs.

01:35:14.780 And that's still, you know, part of my goal, part of my mission.

01:35:20.340 But what I found is in my many attempts to awaken the sleeping, it is quite an arduous task if they're not willing to wake up.

01:35:33.300 And so, you know, I launched my letter series with a piece called Letter to a Covidian.

01:35:40.960 And, you know, I'm basically trying to confront the people with their hypocrisy, their discrimination,

01:35:48.440 the fact that they allowed themselves to be manipulated into becoming hateful, fearful people.

01:35:55.440 And, you know, it is difficult when people are sort of in a state of fear, they're panicked,

01:36:04.040 and they're just clinging to these easy solutions and safety.

01:36:08.940 And Laura Dodsworth wrote a great book called A State of Fear that documents the psychological manipulation techniques

01:36:16.040 that were used specifically in the UK.

01:36:18.600 But anyway, so part of my mission has evolved in that I am reaching so many fellow dissidents around the world.

01:36:29.880 And so really, it's been about nurturing this really rich community of brave, brilliant, funny, intelligent people.

01:36:41.820 And so it's been very gratifying in that sense as well.

01:36:45.540 May I ask you, because the global reach, when I have spoken to people from different countries

01:36:53.240 and I look at who's listening to my broadcast, and I'll find them everywhere that you would just not expect.

01:37:01.720 And it kind of gives me hope because I believe it's, this is not an American problem.

01:37:08.700 I mean, I think we're a great source of it, but this is not an American problem.

01:37:12.880 This is why there are demonstrations all over the world, because people know it's the elite against the common man.

01:37:25.300 Yes, yes, absolutely.

01:37:28.420 And I love that you pointed that out earlier.

01:37:31.780 You mentioned if your hope is in Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis, your hope is in the wrong place.

01:37:38.200 And one of my recurring themes is that it is we the people against they. 0.98

01:37:47.920 And so that's one of the reasons I wrote, I have a Profiles in Courage series.

01:37:53.540 And I did a piece on the Canadian trucker protests, who, of course, they were vilified in the media, big surprise.

01:38:01.380 But I spent, you know, a great deal of time just listening to the stories of the people who were there,

01:38:08.560 just kind of playing live streams in the background.

01:38:10.780 And there was just this up-swelling of joy and emotional connection with one another.

01:38:18.280 And I called it the winter of love.

01:38:20.900 And you see when ordinary people get together in a spirit of peaceful love and compliance,

01:38:28.540 that is where our power lies.

01:38:30.580 I was going to say to you a minute ago when you were talking about, you know,

01:38:34.820 you're trying to get people out of the darkness and how they just are unwilling to go.

01:38:40.740 Fear and hatred are so strong.

01:38:44.820 And they cannot be disabled with more fear or hatred.

01:38:49.960 It has to be love.

01:38:52.060 Absolutely.

01:38:52.620 That's hard to convince people who keep feeling like a stick in the head or a stick in the eye.

01:39:00.380 And you kind of have some righteous indignation.

01:39:03.920 You're like, I'm not the bad guy here.

01:39:06.360 It's really hard to get them to act in love.

01:39:10.220 Yeah.

01:39:10.800 Yeah.

01:39:11.160 And I will say in arguing with COVIDians, it is, it has been a test of my patience. 1.00

01:39:17.380 Yeah, I bet.

01:39:17.980 I bet it has.

01:39:18.920 Maintain my composure and be compassionate toward them.

01:39:21.800 And I do a rolling interview series called Dissident Dialogues.

01:39:28.020 And I call them rolling because as I work through the questions, I publish them one at a time for my paid subscribers.

01:39:35.660 And then when it's completed, I make it available to the public.

01:39:39.020 But right now I'm engaged in one with Meredith Miller, who is a holistic coach.

01:39:44.560 And I have found her insights into the psyche of what is occurring absolutely fascinating.

01:39:52.160 I've been studying this, been writing about it for three years.

01:39:55.660 And of course, I've been studying these topics for many more years before this.

01:40:00.020 But she articulates it in such a way that really helped me understand it from the perspective of these victims of the psychological manipulation.

01:40:08.920 So, for example, you know, she sees them as victims of narcissistic, emotional, psychological abuse.

01:40:18.580 And she calls it a psycho-neuro-spiritual state of captivity.

01:40:24.260 And so if you think of them as being like abused partners in a, you know, an unhealthy relationship, and they have Stockholm Syndrome, they are defending their captors.

01:40:36.960 And so anyone who tries to get them rescued from that situation before they are ready, they're going to resist.

01:40:46.360 And so Meredith basically said they have to be the ones who make, they have to have this moment, this epiphany, this moment of disruptive truth that helps them break through and recognize that they're being abused.

01:41:02.240 And that those of us who are outside trying to wrested them from that abuse, once they wake up, and, you know, she said,

01:41:11.640 my sub-stack is extremely valuable for people when they are awakening, because they're thirsty for that truth and that evidence to support their newfound realization.

01:41:22.280 Margaret, I would love to continue our conversation.

01:41:25.100 I'm going to become a paid subscriber of your sub-stack.

01:41:28.880 I think you're amazing, and I hope you don't mind.

01:41:32.420 I would love to share some of your ideas.

01:41:36.040 Oh, please do.

01:41:37.220 Absolutely.

01:41:38.120 Because you're a remarkable writer.

01:41:39.540 Thank you so much.

01:41:40.860 Margaret Ann Alice, you can find her website.

01:41:46.320 Oh, jeez, now I don't.

01:41:47.200 Can you get her website?

01:41:48.440 I just, somehow or another, I just deleted her website.

01:41:51.440 Oh, it's on the screen?

01:41:52.900 Where?

01:41:53.100 Oh, there it is.

01:41:54.780 Margaret and Alice.com.

01:41:56.540 Boy, that was complex.

01:41:57.980 All right, let me tell you about Rough Greens.

01:42:01.300 Maria wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

01:42:03.740 She said, we love Rough Greens.

01:42:05.280 Our dog had really, really bad skin allergies.

01:42:07.840 We'd already tried the recommended treatment.

01:42:10.200 Nothing worked.

01:42:11.960 She had a really bad smell.

01:42:13.740 Oof, nothing worse.

01:42:14.860 But three days into the trial, we noticed a difference.

01:43:06.940 Station ID.

01:43:07.380 It's remarkable how many people are waking up.

01:43:22.380 And I don't know much about her backstory.

01:43:28.080 And she has security issues, so she doesn't talk about it.

01:43:32.620 But she is not a slouch by any stretch of the imagination.

01:43:39.140 And I don't think that she was playing in the conservative sandbox at any time.

01:43:50.600 And people are not.

01:43:52.360 We have to be very careful.

01:43:53.520 People are not becoming conservative.

01:43:55.940 And I don't know anything about her.

01:43:57.460 But they're not becoming conservative.

01:43:58.880 They are going back to their classical liberal roots.

01:44:04.240 Classical liberals are the ones who believe in the Bill of Rights.

01:44:08.040 I consider myself a classical liberal.

01:44:10.460 I don't usually say that because it's misunderstood as a term.

01:44:15.180 You're not a liberal.

01:44:16.160 No, I know.

01:44:16.960 I'm a classical liberal.

01:44:18.440 I believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

01:44:21.880 And I'll stand for that.

01:44:23.900 You know, my father used to always say,

01:44:25.380 I disagree with him wholeheartedly.

01:44:27.060 But I'll fight to the death for his right to say it.

01:44:31.120 That's the kind of Americans we all need to be.

01:44:34.960 Everything beyond that is just politics.

01:44:38.700 There are certain core beliefs.

01:44:40.560 And the Bill of Rights is in the center of it.

01:44:43.120 And that's what we need to focus on.

01:44:44.940 Because that's what people are waking back up to.

01:44:48.320 Wait a minute.

01:44:48.720 Wait a minute.

01:44:49.100 Wait a minute.

01:44:50.200 This is a fundamental violation of rights.

01:44:55.100 All right.

01:44:56.700 A lot of things that I hope I'm wrong about.

01:45:00.020 One of them I said today, I don't think this is the big collapse by any stretch.

01:45:06.580 But I don't know if we're over with this collapse.

01:45:09.600 I think it's going to be probably a little like 2008 where this set into motion some things.

01:45:14.840 And then when they can't keep it together with tape and paper clips, it all comes undone.

01:45:20.680 But we're in trouble with the banking system.

01:45:26.420 And we have to prepare for impact.

01:45:29.880 Because I truly believe, as I pointed out last night, digital currency is what they're going to go to.

01:45:35.640 And that's the end of all freedom.

01:45:37.820 And that's not hyperbole.

01:46:15.080 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:46:39.660 So I was reading a story today about Duck Dynasty star Missy Robertson.

01:46:48.440 And she was out with Kirk Cameron.

01:46:50.580 They were doing a book event at a library in Tennessee, Hendersonville, which doesn't sound like a huge metropolis.

01:47:00.360 But they were doing it at the public library and they had real problems.

01:47:05.340 I mean, the thing almost didn't happen.

01:47:07.120 And as I'm reading this story, I thought, I got to call Missy and just ask her about it.

01:47:13.240 Missy Robertson is here with us.

01:47:15.620 Missy is the author of several books.

01:47:19.480 The latest is Because You're My Family.

01:47:22.560 And she was out with Kirk Cameron.

01:47:24.000 His book is As You Grow.

01:47:26.340 Hi, Missy.

01:47:26.840 How are you?

01:47:28.040 Hi.

01:47:28.600 Hi, Glenn.

01:47:29.100 Thank you for having me.

01:47:29.880 We're great.

01:47:30.400 Yeah, it's so good to talk to you.

01:47:31.560 So, you know, if you're watching your podcast or your show on Blaze TV or on YouTube, you saw you bring this up and talk about it.

01:47:46.020 Can you retell the story?

01:47:48.220 Yes, actually, when I came home from that trip, I told my husband, Jace, who's one of the talent on Unashamed with Phil and Jace Robertson on Blaze TV.

01:48:00.280 I said, can I be on your podcast tomorrow?

01:48:02.660 And I never asked for that.

01:48:04.440 They want me to be on there.

01:48:05.460 And I mean, they're too busy or uninterested to be on there with my family, just being totally transparent.

01:48:12.020 But so when I said, I need to talk about something on the podcast, it kind of shocked him.

01:48:17.200 And he just said, yes, immediately, which was really funny.

01:48:19.720 I said, you don't even know what I want to talk about.

01:48:21.800 But what had happened was literally the day before.

01:48:24.500 And I was in Tennessee with my children.

01:48:27.520 Most of my children and both of my grandbabies live in the Nashville area.

01:48:31.600 And I was spending some time with them.

01:48:34.880 And Brave Books reached out to me and said, hey, you know, Kirk's going to be on his library tour in Hendersonville.

01:48:41.760 Which is not too far from where my children are.

01:48:44.320 Would you like to join him and read your book?

01:48:46.600 Absolutely.

01:48:47.520 What a wonderful idea.

01:48:49.940 Kind of wish I thought of that to do a library tour.

01:48:52.720 And sure, what a great place to do it as well.

01:48:56.960 So that morning, I was not privy to a lot of the pushback that had been going on.

01:49:04.400 So I kind of walked in a little deer in the headlights, I think, to use a southern term.

01:49:11.120 Right.

01:49:11.180 But that morning was actually really cold and it had been warm and beautiful all week.

01:49:18.280 That morning was like 41 degrees, raining and freezing.

01:49:23.260 And when I got there almost two hours before it opened, there was already a line formed with children, umbrellas, babies.

01:49:30.880 And so I thought, okay, I can't really believe that they're coming out for this little library reading.

01:49:37.800 But, you know, kudos to them.

01:49:40.100 Even my children backed out at the last minute.

01:49:42.880 Because our babies are little.

01:49:44.740 And like, Mom, we're not going to come.

01:49:47.080 I'm like, it's totally fine.

01:49:48.300 I totally understand.

01:49:49.480 So as the morning went on, the lines got longer and Braves wanted to do some little promos about our books inside this beautiful.

01:50:00.740 I want to say this, this beautiful, multi-level, gorgeous library with tons of windows.

01:50:06.780 Inside was like just really massive.

01:50:09.260 For a small little town, I was not expecting this.

01:50:11.860 Right.

01:50:11.940 And so the depth of the library behind us was just such a great, beautiful place to do some promos.

01:50:19.200 And was just kind of snuck up on when I realized that people started making noise in the closed library.

01:50:28.320 People were outside.

01:50:29.760 And where's this noise coming from?

01:50:31.780 And I realized over the next few minutes that it was being done on purpose to distract from what we were trying to do is make these videos, just promoting, just promoting these books.

01:50:44.420 And these books, what's so silly is these books are about unconditional love of family, forgiveness, the fruits of the spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, self-control.

01:50:58.820 You know, these are kind of ironic when you think about some of the things that we're trying to push.

01:51:05.180 They said that we're trying to push on children and their families.

01:51:08.580 So wait a minute.

01:51:09.140 So let me ask you, why didn't you just ask the librarian to do what all librarians do and say, shh, who were these people that were?

01:51:18.500 They were the library staff.

01:51:19.960 But again, like I said before, I wasn't really sure what was going on.

01:51:25.240 And I, you know, being in reality TV, we're not on sets anywhere.

01:51:31.360 We're in real everyday circumstances.

01:51:33.360 And so I thought, you know, maybe people, we're in their environment.

01:51:38.100 They forgot to lower their voices.

01:51:40.320 We're trying to do something, you know, so can we ask them nicely to, you know, be quiet?

01:51:44.220 Well, that happened like three times.

01:51:45.500 We even kind of laughed about it.

01:51:46.500 Like, shh, I think Kirk said, it's a library, shh.

01:51:49.260 You know, like, ha ha.

01:51:50.020 And it just wasn't happening.

01:51:54.120 And we realized there was a moment where I thought something is wrong when one of the Brave team asked the director who was coming kind of out into the open.

01:52:06.160 And he said, hey, can you ask your staff to hold it down?

01:52:09.480 And he fired back, you're not even supposed to be here.

01:52:13.240 And Kirk shot back, yes, we are supposed to be here.

01:52:16.440 And these were very loud voices, and it kind of took me off guard.

01:52:20.660 Like, something, are we not supposed to be in the library?

01:52:23.480 Like, I start thinking about, like, are we doing something we're not supposed to do?

01:52:27.580 I'm such a rule follower, and I don't want to upset anyone, you know.

01:52:31.380 And Brave, just look, the Brave team just looked at me and was like, we're fine, and yes, we're supposed to be here.

01:52:35.780 Did they, the lady behind the, this is what you said on Ashamed, the lady at the front desk of the library said, we're just trying to look for things to deal with our stress.

01:52:47.340 Yes.

01:52:47.940 That was, I think, the actual moment where it confirmed in my mind.

01:52:54.760 And really, look, I'm like, am I, I'm just sitting there thinking that everyone, we're welcome, there's hundreds of people outside.

01:53:02.400 So, this was really hard for me to wrap my brain around, that someone was trying to thwart this process.

01:53:09.440 And so, when she said that, after Riley, you know, Riley Gaines was also there reading for Bethany Hamilton's book.

01:53:17.000 Bethany was in Hawaii and couldn't come.

01:53:19.820 So, Riley grew up in that area.

01:53:22.040 She said, I grew up five minutes from this library.

01:53:24.640 So, this was her hometown.

01:53:25.800 So, I started to think about what would happen if, you know, our little West Monroe Library, West Monroe, Louisiana Library, if some of the people were acting like that against someone that I had invited or was invited to my hometown library.

01:53:41.360 I would be embarrassed.

01:53:43.420 And I think, you know, she took it upon herself to kind of march over there and say, look, we're asking for 60 seconds of quiet.

01:53:51.080 Can you not turn off the music that you're blaring?

01:53:55.100 There's no one in here but us.

01:53:56.680 And we're asking for 60 seconds.

01:53:58.940 And she said that she didn't think she had the authority to make that decision to turn off the radio.

01:54:04.240 Oh, my gosh.

01:54:06.380 So, I mean, nothing is probably going to happen to these people.

01:54:11.000 I don't know if you fired a, you know, or filed a complaint.

01:54:14.580 But this actually started.

01:54:16.440 I have not.

01:54:17.000 Yeah, this actually started with the brave book people because they wanted to turn Kirk down, right?

01:54:28.740 So, I don't know all of the facts about that.

01:54:32.840 So, but I was learning as I was standing there.

01:54:35.460 We had a job to do.

01:54:36.880 We had hundreds of people waiting for us.

01:54:39.300 And we were really excited about it.

01:54:40.780 These books are really good.

01:54:42.680 They are so sweet, the ones that we were reading, especially that day, to all of these children and families.

01:54:48.620 And I was so, I'm so proud of this book and for Kirk's book because they're biblical values without, you know, basically shoving verses down children's throats.

01:55:00.520 Yes.

01:55:00.840 That's what I think some of the quotes have been said about us.

01:55:03.220 But they're not that way at all.

01:55:04.780 They're beautifully written and illustrated.

01:55:07.640 And it's a partnership that the authors have with brave books.

01:55:11.060 And so, and like my book is about unconditional love and forgiveness of family.

01:55:16.840 And I loved when I talk about it to speak about how the Father in heaven and Jesus who created us love us unconditionally.

01:55:24.580 That there is nothing in the world that we will ever do to make him stop loving us.

01:55:30.400 We will disappoint him.

01:55:31.660 We have things that we have to make up for.

01:55:35.040 There are consequences to our behavior, but he will never stop loving us.

01:55:39.360 And it mirrors our own, with our own children and parenting.

01:55:43.340 It's beautiful.

01:55:44.240 Isn't it amazing, Missy, how this is so, the world is so upside down that that is considered evil indoctrination?

01:55:55.520 Yes.

01:55:56.140 It's really sad.

01:55:58.220 And I don't get angry a lot because I feel like the older I get and the more my relationship with my creator grows,

01:56:06.700 the more I love him and appreciate his sacrifice for me and the more I understand why he loves me so much.

01:56:14.580 Especially now that I have grandbabies, I have two generations of children behind me that I love unconditionally and would do anything for.

01:56:21.760 And I want everyone to experience that relationship like I have with him.

01:56:28.120 And so now, you know, there have been consequences to that library and to their staff's behavior.

01:56:36.240 I got a text from Kirk last night, actually, telling me that the library director was fired.

01:56:43.360 Wow.

01:56:44.260 And so I don't have a lot of confirmation of that.

01:56:47.800 But my initial response was, whoa.

01:56:51.820 Yeah.

01:56:52.480 I would not expect that.

01:56:54.240 I told my husband last night, I said, when I told him, he said, good.

01:57:00.520 And I thought, I mean, it is good, but we don't wish ill on anyone.

01:57:05.200 I know.

01:57:05.940 I know.

01:57:06.340 I feel like they do on us, but we really don't wish ill on anyone.

01:57:10.120 But we have to stand up for what they are trying to do with our children and our grandchildren.

01:57:18.320 And now I've got two brand new grandbabies that my children are having to make decisions 1.00

01:57:24.380 on where to put them in school, if they're even going to go to a school.

01:57:30.480 It's a very difficult situation for them, and I do not envy them.

01:57:34.940 We're going to support them 100% in whatever decision they make.

01:57:38.940 But they're really taking it seriously, and I'm afraid that if we don't, we're going to

01:57:44.800 lose a lot of our children.

01:57:46.100 Oh, we already have, unfortunately, because we didn't speak up.

01:57:50.540 And, you know, you said, you know, the stronger I am with the Lord, you've just experienced

01:57:57.660 His love.

01:57:58.800 And I'll tell you, the stronger I become in the Lord, I find myself in those situations

01:58:04.080 with greater compassion for the person.

01:58:07.280 It's really weird.

01:58:08.800 It's, you don't get angry.

01:58:10.660 You just, you're like, what kind of suffering did you go through, or are you going through?

01:58:16.620 What are you carrying around?

01:58:19.200 Yeah, it's so sad.

01:58:21.100 I mean, well, I'll be honest, I was angry.

01:58:24.060 Oh, no, yeah, I know.

01:58:25.240 I was angry at first.

01:58:26.600 You know, that's what led me to want to talk about this.

01:58:30.920 You know, I got home that day.

01:58:32.840 We have a place there close to my kids, and my son Cole was there, and he's my peacemaking,

01:58:40.400 laid-back child.

01:58:41.840 Let's don't ruffle any feathers.

01:58:43.500 And he was like, Mom, you need to talk about this.

01:58:46.800 Yeah, there's a—you know, people think that if you're loving and you're following in the

01:58:50.520 footsteps of Christ that you're just never going to, you know, say anything.

01:58:54.300 That's not fighting.

01:58:55.180 No, no, no.

01:58:56.080 No, it's standing firm in the truth with compassion to other people, but that doesn't mean you

01:59:01.880 don't say anything.

01:59:03.280 You cannot live your life quiet, especially in this world.

01:59:07.160 If you are not an enemy of evil, then you're really nothing.

01:59:12.960 You're, you know, you're nothing.

01:59:14.880 You know, and Riley was amazing what she did. 0.94

01:59:18.400 And I was taken so off guard for a second, she was like, this is not happening, and walked

01:59:23.520 over there and was not unkind at all, but very direct.

01:59:27.400 And we have all of that on video.

01:59:29.340 You know, Brave was steadily rolling.

01:59:31.200 I started videoing with my own phone because I thought, is this really—this is happening.

01:59:35.920 This is what I've been seeing on the news happening from coast to coast, but not here

01:59:40.980 in the middle, the flyover state.

01:59:43.480 This is not happening in our little hometowns, but it is.

01:59:46.020 Yeah, people don't have any idea.

01:59:49.100 It is in all of our communities.

01:59:51.620 Missy, thank you so much, and say hi to everybody for me, and we so appreciate Unashamed and all

01:59:59.420 your work.

02:00:00.240 So thank you.

02:00:00.900 Thank you.

02:00:01.580 Thank you so much.

02:00:02.660 Bye-bye.

02:00:05.580 Missy Robertson from Unashamed.

02:00:07.740 You can find it on Blaze TV and also on YouTube.

02:00:11.900 All right, today.

02:00:13.000 Today is the day you make an important decision.

02:00:14.680 Do you keep your current cell phone plan?

02:00:17.360 You know, the one where you shell out enormous amounts of money every month, you pay a big

02:01:29.360 The Glenn Beck Program.

02:01:30.860 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

02:01:49.580 We were just talking about Riley Gaines, who is the swimmer in Kentucky, right, that was

02:01:58.700 constantly speaking out, you know, hey, I don't feel comfortable with the guy in the locker

02:02:05.140 room.

02:02:06.560 What a brave, brave girl she is.

02:02:08.060 And having to compete against him, you know, the guy who was 462nd, I think, ranked in men's

02:02:16.600 swimming in college.

02:02:17.640 And then when he switched to women's swimming, suddenly went to number one.

02:02:22.980 But it had nothing to do with the fact that he was a man.

02:02:25.920 No, it had nothing to do with that.

02:02:27.200 Dude, did you ever see that documentary, Victor Victoria with Julie Andrews?

02:02:31.720 I did see that documentary many, many years ago.

02:02:34.200 Okay, so I don't know if you remember, but I should watch it again.

02:02:37.900 This is my recollection.

02:02:40.760 Robert Preston was some kind, I don't remember what role he played exactly, but he convinced

02:02:46.900 her she was starving.

02:02:48.920 It was during the Depression in Paris.

02:02:50.500 She couldn't get a job, even though she was a fantastic singer. 0.99

02:02:55.160 And Robert Preston said, but you know who they are hiring?

02:02:58.860 They're hiring trans men.

02:03:02.720 Who dress like women. 0.99

02:03:04.080 Yeah, who dress like women and sing like women. 1.00

02:03:06.960 Right.

02:03:07.120 So I'll make you look like a man, you go in and get the job, and then you dress like you, 1.00

02:03:13.940 a woman, but you're a guy pretending to be a woman.

02:03:18.420 Huh.

02:03:19.060 Yeah.

02:03:19.820 Kind of sums up.

02:03:21.240 And the problem with that, at that time, was that it was unfair to the trans men, because

02:03:27.300 she cut in line, you can't, the guy can't compete with a woman. 1.00

02:03:31.780 Right.

02:03:32.120 But now, oh, that's totally fine.

02:03:35.380 Oh, man.

02:03:35.880 In real life, it's totally fine to take away the awards from the women. 1.00
