Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glen Beck program.
Thanks so much.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glen Beck program.
We're going to show you one of the most dangerous,
the most dangerous kind of thinking for a democracy or for a republic or for any society that wishes to be free and wishes to think for themselves.
It's a cute little story from CNN.
We'll share that with you in just a second.
Tell you why it matters as well.
Relief Factor.
Let me tell you about Mark, who lives in Washington and his Relief Factor story.
Mark was involved in a bad injury.
He afterward found himself living with daily nagging back pain, even worse.
It often came with a side odor of pain and numbness in his leg.
I love that.
Don't you, Pat?
Oh, it's numbness thing in our life.
Love it.
It's the best.
He was desperate for some kind of relief, something drug-free.
Thankfully, he found Relief Factor, and the pain went from unbearable to minimal.
It's been a a blessing, he said, noting that he loves the fact that he can adjust how much he's taking according to what he needs, you know, for managing his aches and pains.
I've been where Mark was, and I tell you, it worked for me.
It doesn't work for everybody.
Pat, I think you took it.
It didn't work for you, right?
Right.
Yeah.
But it doesn't work for him.
They don't claim that.
It's 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.
I'm one of them.
You can be one like me, and Mark and be out of pain.
800 800 for relief.
800 the number 4 relief.
Save on your first order.
800 the number 4 relief.
Relief factor.com.
Now I want to share something with you and I want to show you
one of the most dangerous articles and irresponsible
so-called journalists that I know.
And I mean I know him.
He worked at the Blaze for quite some time and then he went to to CNN,
and his name is Oliver Darcy.
And I don't know what happened to Oliver,
but he has gone very, very dark and is a danger to our democracy.
Now, with that being said, our republic, with that being said, I would
cheer on that Oliver Darcy can say what he wants to say.
I think it is
irresponsible.
i think he is well let me just read the article and you'll see okay uh cnn ticketmaster under fire for promoting tucker carlson's conspiracy laden tour
now ticketmaster under fire from whom
ticketmaster is linking arms with right-wing extremists boosting their ability to reach mainstream audiences and profiting off their dangerous and hateful rhetoric ahead of the november election.
Ticketing sales giant is the distributor of the forthcoming live speaking tour from Tucker Carlson, who announced plans this week to criss-cross the country with a 15-city arena tour, inviting fellow conspiracy theorists such as Alex Jones and Marjorie Taylor Green to join him along the way.
Yeah, in two cities, those are the guests.
I'm a guest in another city.
Megan Kelly is a guest in another city.
You know, I don't know what to tell you.
I'm sorry you think they're all so dangerous and their voices should be silenced.
So what is he doing so far?
Listen, on Ticketmaster website, Carlson is referred to as the leading voice in America politics and an alternative to corporate media dedicated to telling the truth about things that matter clearly and without fear.
So he's doing a couple of things here.
First of all, he is attacking Ticketmaster.
The approach is not to just say, you shouldn't go and here's why.
The approach is go after Ticketmaster.
Force Ticketmaster through pressure campaigns to drop Carlson.
He is then also making his reality and his opinion,
your opinion, America's opinion, the only correct opinion that Carlson is not one of the leading voices in American politics.
He absolutely is.
And an alternative to corporate media, dedicated to telling the truth about things that matter clearly and without fear.
That's what he sets out to do.
And he is an alternative to corporate media.
And speak without fear?
Yeah, you know what you have to fear?
People like Oliver Darcy smearing you and making you into a monster.
He does it anyway because he doesn't care.
While it's hard to imagine that Ticketmaster conjured this glowing description of Carlson itself, it's remarkable that the company would approve of it and promote it on its site.
This is the ESG mentality.
This is the way business will be done in the future in this new
corporate, public-private partnership with our governments.
This is the way things will be done.
You will be shamed into doing something.
that's because there's not a morsel of truth to how ticketmaster is presenting carlson to its customer
wow not a morsel of truth carlson a former mainstream conservative who over the course of donald trump's
pregnancy presidency traveled to the fringes of american politics has for years promoted dangerous disinformation and damaging conspiracy theories carlson lied about the covid 19 vaccines did he
did he
He discouraged his fans from receiving the life-saving shots.
Okay,
well, that's kind of looking like a smart move at this point.
He sowed doubt about the legitimacy of the 2020 election.
Well, wait a minute.
What is CNN doing every time they have Hillary Clinton on or Al Gore on or anybody else?
Don't you often have,
what's her name, the governor of Georgia?
Isn't she often on CNN?
Sowing conspiracy theories that she lost the election in Georgia?
And then he
reprehensibly peddled the false notion that January 6th insurrection was a so-called false flag operation staged by the deep state.
Okay,
he peddled that theory.
What does that mean exactly?
Peddled that theory.
By the way, all the things that he's pointing out here seem to be more and more true.
I don't know.
There's still theories, haven't been proven.
But in America and a free society, you must be allowed to conjure up theories like,
hey,
the sun doesn't revolve around the earth.
Controversial at the time.
Not controversial now.
If you are not allowed to question the official narrative of what's happening in your society, you do not have a free society.
And as I pointed out, more and more of these things seem to be true.
And you have to go back and say, all right, who's telling me this?
Do they have any credibility at all?
I always tell you, I don't ask for your trust.
I don't ask for it ever.
I want you to listen to me as a different opinion that brings different facts to the table.
But I don't want you to just take my word for it.
I encourage you.
Last night I did another show and I put all of the information, all of the facts, all of the original documents there on Glenbeck.com so you could do your own homework and you could decide.
It is, in a free society, essential that you question,
in this case now, more and more, the government/slash
media narrative.
The Hunter Biden laptop, has that come to mind?
That's a conspiracy theory.
The New York Times still cannot admit that that's really his.
The Russian Trump bank link that, you know,
he was pinging a bank.
That was all false.
CNN reported on that.
The steel dossier.
The masks.
You got to have the masks.
The COVID-19, it will stop it in its track.
You will kill people if you don't have the vaccine.
By the way, let alone everything that the governor of New York was doing with his brother on CNN.
But those aren't dangerous conspiracy theories.
No, those are truths that we still kind of think are true, but we're not going to look into them.
Their own people are afraid to look into things because they can't.
What they'll find is they're being duped at best.
They are partners in duping America, most likely.
In addition, he says, to those corrosive lies, lies, Carlson has been one of the top promoters of the great replacement theory.
An idea favored by white supremacists that falsely accuses the Democratic Party and wealthy Jewish figures such as George Soros.
Okay, so now he's making his victim here.
He is making
Carlson into a white supremacist
and anti-Jewish because he talks about George Soros.
Let me tell you, the only person in this narrative that is anti-Jewish is George Soros.
The theory is that they're importing third-world migrants into the U.S.
to shift the country's demographics to win elections.
That's a corrosive lie.
No, that's a theory.
You can look at it that way.
I personally don't think that that's what that is.
I personally think they're doing it to collapse the entire West.
For his repugnant promotion of such lies, the New York Times Times noted that while Carlson was at Fox News, he constructed what may be the most racist show in the history of cable news.
Well, I'm glad I don't have that now.
Thank you, Tucker.
Thank you, New York Times, for releasing me from the position of the most racist, hateful show ever on cable news.
Ultimately, Carson grew Carlson grew to be too much of a problem for even Fox News.
Where have I read this before?
ask for comment this week representatives for the live nation subsidiary okay notice this first it's ticketmaster
but if you can't get ticketmaster go to its corporate master live nation
So not getting any answer from Ticketmaster, I'm going to go to their parent company, and they chose not to respond.
So now it's Ticketmaster and Live Nation.
In fairness to the company's public relations division it is difficult to see how they could defend such conduct how could any decent person not only participate in enabling cars and carlson's poisoning of the public discourse but also justify profiting off of his hateful rhetoric in the process we pose that question now ticketmaster live nation we pose those questions to the venues hosting carlson the honda Center, T-Mobile Center, Delta Center, Dickey's Arena, Intrust Bank Arena, and others.
The spokespeople didn't respond.
These are uneasy questions that major businesses will be confronted with in the years ahead.
As I said at the beginning, this is the ESG plan.
As the Republican Party veers further and further toward the fringe, let me ask you something.
Who is fringe?
The one that says, I believe in the absolute right for freedom of speech.
I believe in the right that you can question the government.
You can question authority.
And you have a right to your opinion.
That's called the First Amendment here in America.
So am I fringe
or Oliver Darcy and people like him on the left that are saying no
you don't have a right to freedom of speech we do
okay
companies with basic ethics should of course reject doing business with dishonest figures who profit by dumping toxic waste into the country's information environment well you know Oliver be careful what you wish for because that sounds like you.
By doing so puts them at risk of being targeted by those very same people, like Trump, who have tremendous sway over the vast majority of Republicans, and a lightning rod for painful boycotts.
Hmm, okay, wait a minute.
Painful boycotts.
Now again, he goes back to threatening businesses.
But while the politics of 24 make for thorny business environment for companies to navigate, from an ethics perspective, and yeah, he knows ethics, the questions that lie before them come with clear and obvious answers.
Those uncomfortable decisions risk catapulting them squarely in to the center of the information wars where grifters like Carlson thrive.
You know, I don't agree with everything Tucker Carlson says.
I certainly don't agree with anything that Oliver Darcy now has
become and says.
But I don't want him shut down.
I don't want a boycott of CNN.
I'd like people to recognize reality.
You know, American Airlines and all you big businesses, why are you advertising on CNN?
Literally no one is watching.
So what is it that you're trying to signal and to whom?
Because it's clearly not the American people.
Because the American people aren't seeing their ads.
I don't want them boycotted or anything else.
I don't want Oliver Darcy to be silenced.
I just think that someone with a different opinion should have the right to say, this guy's a jackass.
This guy is trying to use absolutely every tool in the Sololinsky book.
This is, this article is 100% Sololinsky.
He's using every Sololinsky tool in the book.
To do what?
To create fear in the corporate world, to create fear with you,
to create fear of Tucker Carlson and anyone like him, and anyone who has a different opinion, you should fear and push away from you.
The opposite is what you should do for a free nation.
You should listen to other people's points of view and then decide for yourself who has credibility here who doesn't back in a minute
there's a house somewhere out there right now and it's not just a house it is the house the house for you and your family but it is hard right now it is so hard not too big not too small it's the Goldilocks zone of houses you want to find that home You want to buy that home and make it your own if you can.

Freedom of speech is at the very cornerstone of democratic societies.
It is the driver for the growth of ideas.
If you don't have freedom of speech, the freedom to question,
then you are going to stagnate and as a society, die.
This fundamental right allows you to express your thought, your opinion, without fear of censorship or persecution.
That way, innovation and progress can flourish.
No, anyone who says,
I'm for progress, could possibly be for the end of freedom of speech and questioning.
Any company that just says, just do it,
I don't want to hear your ideas, that's not a company that is going to innovate anything.
By the way, historically speaking, most of the ideas that brought us to truth seemed crazy or were deemed dangerous at the time.
And those are the ones that profoundly shaped our understanding of the world and propelled humanity forward.
The earth is flat.
No,
it's not, said Magellan.
No, and I think I can prove that.
I'm going the other way, said Columbus.
That was dangerous.
How about the sun revolves around the earth?
That's the way the government at the time, the church,
believed things were.
What happened?
Well, no.
A couple people said, no, I think it's the exact opposite.
Copernicus and Galileo, they had that revolutionary idea.
They supported it.
And what happened?
Galileo
had some kind of severe consequences from the Catholic Church.
In 1633, tried by the Inquisition.
Faced torture.
Wait a minute, hang on.
The Inquisition, what was that?
A quasi-government organization, a public-private partnership.
decided you can't question and if you do question
then you're ours.
We can shut you up, kill you, or torture you.
All right, let me tell you about our sponsor.
It's Car Shield.
Trying to make it to the breakdown lane in the middle of morning traffic is not the best time
to suddenly realize, crap, I don't have coverage for whatever just started smoking beneath my hood.
That check engine light that came on that you ignored a few weeks ago.
Yeah, it should have been a tip-off, but it wasn't because you knew you were in trouble because you didn't have any coverage on your car and it was going to be really expensive.

With election night right around the corner, can we trust the system?
Sarah Gonzalez and the Blaze original team find out.
Don't miss voter fraud exposed, how elections can be stolen only on Blaze TV.
There are so many things that we have to get to today.
Russian warships have docked in Cuba.
I keep getting emails from friends going, is that true?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's true.
You should probably pay attention to the world.
That's absolutely true.
Record prices now, gold, coffee, copper, cocoa.
You look at the news in our show prep today.
They talk about, well, you know, the Fed says they got this under control.
Maybe it looks like they don't.
No, you know who the Fed doesn't have under control?
Is the spending at the United States government.
The United States government is printing $1 trillion every 100 days.
$1 trillion every 100 days.
Just put that in your pipe and smoke it for a minute.
What do you think is going to happen to inflation when they're dumping $100 trillion?
I'm sorry, $1 trillion
into the economy every 100 days.
Of course, we're going to have inflation.
It's only going to get worse.
But it's, you know, it's so amazing that
we keep looking for answers from the people who caused the problem.
You know, people still look at the New York Times and go, oh, you know, the New York Times, well, what do they say?
What do you mean, what do they say?
How does the New York Times have any credibility at this point?
They were, you know, leading the way.
They still can't admit the Hunter Biden thing.
They still can't admit it.
How?
How?
You know,
you were peddling the nonsense that that was Russian disinformation.
And you weren't even offended by it when you found out that that wasn't true.
You weren't even offended.
You didn't ask the people who told you, you know, in the intel industry.
You didn't say, hey, dude, you really led me astray on this one.
How do these people have any credibility?
New York Times bestseller list?
How about that?
How about
The Economist just did a story on how conservatives are shortchanged by the New York Times bestseller list?
Of course, this is something you've been going through for decades now.
We've known about this for a long time, and it's a much worse problem than The Economist even knows.
I mean, they say that
their analysis found that books published by conservative printing houses are 7% less likely to make it onto the New York Times weekly bestseller list.
It's a lot worse than that.
It's a lot worse than that.
Yeah.
I mean, I said this example earlier that,
you know, my last book,
which was not the Great Reset, it was Dark Future.
When Dark Future came out,
we sold twice the number of books.
I think it was Dark Future.
It might have been Great Reset.
I can't remember.
Twice the number of books as
the author that
was given the number one status.
And it used to be that they would hold you out of the number one slot.
You know, they might make you two or three if it was even close.
But if it was that different in in the old days, you'd still get the number one spot.
Now, I went from double the sales of the people they put in in number one, and I made 15th on the list.
I mean, how did they justify that?
That's crazy.
Their own algorithms.
Their own algorithms.
Yeah, don't they weight certain bookstores more than others?
Is that
independent bookstores?
Yeah, but they're also, but that's not enough to do
what happened there.
That's just not enough.
You know, they have their own agenda, and that's fine.
I just wish they would be open about it.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Stop lying to people and saying that that is, you know, book scan is the real number one, number two, number three.
You know what I mean?
It just scans the books that are sold.
Still, however, you know, sold,
you know, through the traditional things.
For instance, I don't care about this anymore.
And we are doing everything we can with Mercury Inc.
to print and distribute ourselves.
And we still can't get away from a big publishing house distributing because it's just, it's almost a monopoly at this point.
You just don't have the ability to distribute into bookstores.
And then Amazon takes 50%.
I mean, did you do 50% of the work, Amazon?
Really?
Wow.
I just don't find that reasonable at all.
But they're Amazon.
So we're selling my latest book, Chasing Embers, through Glenbeck.com, which will not go through Book Scan, will not do any of the stuff.
It won't won't be logged by the New York Times.
No, it won't be logged by the New York Times or anybody.
Yeah.
Because we're not a part of Book Scan.
So, and I don't care.
I really don't care.
I want to, I'm tired of putting my money and my effort
and then putting it into institutions that are trying to kill us.
Do you remember, Pat, when we used to go on tour of bookstores and how many hostile bookstores we would walk into?
Yeah.
That just
found me, yeah, found me despicable.
Yeah.
But they did it because they knew they'd sell a lot of books.
Yep.
Just tired of it.
Yeah.
Don't have to do it.
Don't have to do it.
It's interesting because
in this economist article, they say that leading conservative authors like you and Bill O'Reilly are frequently listed on the New York Times bestseller, nonfiction list, but less prominent writers have a more difficult time making the cut.
Yeah, and like you just explained, though, while you're on the list,
you're not where you should be on the list.
It's not accurate because they fudge even those numbers.
So you know, because you probably think this is a lot of whining about, you know, trophies.
It's not.
The New York Times, if you get in the top 10 new york times then your book is automatically put in every airport it's automatically put in the front of the stores otherwise it just kind of languishes on a back shelf someplace so and that's what they want that's why they don't put you know it that's why the great reset and dark future could not be a top 10 bestseller it had to be 15.
um it could not be a top 10.
Why?
Because then it would get the exposure that they didn't want it to have.
So it's not, it's, you know, by the New York Times doing this, it's not about money and it's not bragging rights.
It is about exposure and having your book placed in places like airports where people go in to buy a book and they're going to, you know, go take a flight or take a vacation and they'll see your book they'll carry 10 the top 10 bestsellers and if you're not in that you don't you're not seen so you don't get discovered that's the problem and nobody's really nobody's really articulated that they make it seem like it's a i don't know it's petty that it's a we i want to be on a top top 10 new york times bestseller list because that says something about me
it says nothing about anybody.
Let's see.
California's minimum wage, the $20 minimum wage for fast food workers.
Yeah, kind of putting people out of business.
First of all, McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King hiked prices to offset the higher cost.
Who would have seen that coming?
I mean, how many times
does it take before people
understand basic economics,
The price of the goods or service goes up when it costs the company that is providing those goods or services, when it costs them more to get that to you,
they raise the price.
That's the way business works.
Communism doesn't work that way.
Communism,
they just do what they want to do and price doesn't matter.
And that's why you have crappy stuff, you have crappy distribution, and supermarkets that, you know,
I would feel safer, I'd feel safer in the streets, in eating the food off the streets in China
than I would in Venezuela, in the grocery store.
It's a really hard decision, too, for a lot of businesses.
You know, I have a small business, and when the price of the ingredients goes up,
for a while, you just eat that cost.
You know?
And then eventually you can't any longer.
You can't.
So when butter goes from $70 for the, for the,
in the volume that we buy it in, from $70 to $143,
then eventually that price is going to go up.
You know?
Well, that's the same thing.
We talk about this at the Blaze all the time.
You know me, Pat.
I hate, because I grew up in radio, which is free,
I hate charging for stuff.
I would so gladly go on tour and not make a dime.
You know, if
I didn't have to pay the money, I wouldn't charge people to come in.
And I'm always arguing, can we get the price lower?
Can we get the price lower?
Because
I remember, and so do you, what it's like when you are on the edge.
Yeah.
And I don't want to, I hope to God I'm not there again.
But there's a chance that all of us are there again.
And it kills me.
It just kills me.
And I think that the
owners of
stores and makers of products that actually see the end user, like I don't think Nike doesn't care.
You know what I mean?
They don't care.
There are companies that actually care about
the end user and think about them.
We're one of those people.
And
every time we're, I mean,
we pay above industry standard
at the Blaze.
Okay.
We're either competitive or just above industry standard.
Well, you can't live on industry standard now.
But what do you do?
You keep raising it so everybody and then not raising the price.
And then if you raise the price, then the customers can't afford it and it goes away and the whole thing.
This is what every business is going through right now.
And, you know, I really,
I will be,
I will absolutely be convinced that this is a fraudulent election if for the first time in history,
the economy doesn't play the major role.
Look at,
can America survive another four years?
Can you survive another four years going down this road?
Can you afford it?
Just let's ask that.
Can Americans afford another four years?
Because everything is going up.
You're not able to buy a house.
You're not able to get a loan on anything that is reasonable.
And it is only going to get much, much worse.
And I don't know if you saw the jobs report yesterday.
so in the jobs report the um
the fed chief powell came out and said
yeah these these jobs reports they're the books are being cooked a bit
wait what
all of the jobs that have been created are part-time jobs and i shouldn't say all the vast majority are part-time jobs and almost no american citizens are getting the jobs that are actually being reported as being created.
It's almost all illegal aliens now.
I mean, you know, you hear, well, it was a pretty good jobs report.
Yeah, for illegal aliens,
can you afford another four years of this?
Okay, now I know you think that dad wants that 500th pair of socks or that 900th flashlight or tie for Father's Day, but no.

This is...
This is amazing when you look at the job market and you know what you're looking for.
The Fed chair, Powell head of the Fed admitted yesterday that Biden was rigging the jobs data and when you say rigging the data wait until you hear the establishment survey it reported 272,000 jobs were added okay
this number included multiple job holders If you take the people out
that are taking on two or three jobs, you get the number of actual employed workers plunging by 408,000.
408,000 down.
It hasn't made
it
hasn't gone up.
It is flatlined or gone down.
In May alone,
when you take the part-time worker and you uh say these are part-time jobs and then the elimination of full-time jobs part-time uh jobs in may
were 200 and some
and the loss 286 part-time jobs and 500 sorry 625 000 full-time jobs lost in may
so everything that's being created is a part-time job.
We are hemorrhaging full-time jobs in America.
We've lost 1.2 million full-time jobs.
The Glenn Beck program.
You know that emergencies usually come as a surprise, right?

Coming up, Sarah Gonzalez.
We have
a really good documentary that she has just finished on voter fraud.
And
it is tough, but if you know the reality, then maybe we can do something about it.
But voter fraud is going to be a problem this time around.
Sarah's here to tell us what she found in the new documentary.
Oh, oh, oh, stay the straight
and hold the line.
It's a new day, day, a time to rain.
Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
I don't know if you know this, I didn't.
After 2016 in Michigan,
when Trump won Michigan, after that election, they went in and completely changed the way the voting system worked in Michigan.
Not gonna let that happen again, I'll tell you that right now.
So after 16, after 2020, has anything changed?
The election's right around the corner.
Both sides are saying, you know, can we trust the system?
Both sides, whoever wins,
is going to say the other side's just a sore loser because
now no one trusts the voting system.
Is it secure?
Blaze TV has a new documentary out, Voter Fraud Exposed: How Elections Can Be Stolen.
If you're not a subscriber to Blaze TV, you're going to want to be to see just this documentary, Voter Fraud Exposed.
Sarah Gonzalez went out all over the country and she talked to the people that
either are or were running the states and looked into what's been done since 2020.
Is it good or bad?
And what do we do about it?
She joins us in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about American Financing.
American Financing is now saving their customers an average of $825 a month.
That's $10,000 a year.
What kind of a change would that make in your life if you had an extra $10,000?
If your boss came in today and said, I'll give you a $10,000 raise.
Inflation
is up 24%.
Your dollar has lost 24% of its value and its purchasing power since 2020.
So your dollar of 2020 is now only able to purchase 75 cents.
And that's not going to buy you a lot.
So if you're in trouble and you've been putting things on credit card, then your rates keep going higher and higher and higher.
The average credit card now is over 25%,
some as high as 35%.
You're never going to be able to pay that off.
If you own a home, would you please call American Financing?
It's not right for everybody, but it might be the thing that saves you and your house.
American Financing 800-906-2440.
Ask them about, well, just tell them your finances and your problem, and they have experts there that can help work things out for you.
It's American Financing, 800-906-2440, or AmericanFinancing.net.
NMLS 1-82334, NMLS Consumer Access.org.
APR for Ritz in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

Blaze TV host of Sarah Gonzalez Unfiltered.
It was really hard.
We started with a name, and then we're like, we got to find a Sarah Gonzalez to be able to do this show.
We might have thought about doing it a different way, but we found her and she's perfect.
She is the perfect Sarah Gonzalez to host Unfiltered.
Sarah, welcome to the program.
How are you?
Thank you.
Thanks for having me.
I'm good.
I consider that job security, Glenn.
You're not going to find another Sarah Gonzalez, and we've already made a show.
Yeah, we looked.
We looked.
So anyway, you're doing another Blaze original.
We've all been doing this.
This is episode five.
The documentary is called Voter Fraud Exposed, How Elections Can Be Stolen.
I have to tell you, I saw a rough cut of it, I don't even know, a couple weeks ago.
Oh, my gosh, Sarah.
Yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
Just Michigan alone is.
I mean, you sat down with the woman who was the Secretary of State, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
And she, I believe she was replaced by a Secretary of State that was part of the George Soros thing.
Correct.
Correct.
Yes.
Jocelyn Benson.
Yes.
Uh-huh.
And
give people a clue on just
Michigan.
Sure.
So, yes.
In 2018, Jocelyn Benson replaced Ruth Johnson.
Ruth Johnson was a Republican who, more importantly, was interested in doing the right thing when it came to protecting the voter rolls and keeping them secure and fresh and dated.
And so, or I should say, not outdated.
And so, what Jocelyn Benson did, she is, as you pointed out, Soros-funded.
She is former SPLC, just to give you an idea of who she is and what she's about.
Yeah.
And so she is one of these.
In case you don't know that, that's Southern Poverty Law Center, which is the worst of the worst.
Yeah.
Okay.
Go ahead.
Yeah.
So she is part of the Secretary of State project that George Soros is funding.
So she comes in to the state of Michigan and she tries to allow Michigan to count ballots that were received after election day.
She was luckily sued and lost that battle.
But since then, we've had ballot referendums that you can have same day registration.
This is proposition three in Michigan.
You can have same day registration and you can register without showing a photo ID in the state of Michigan and your vote count.
Yes, yes, yes.
I mean you need a photo ID for anything.
Everything.
Everything.
Except for the most important
thing a citizen can do.
Right, right.
And well, and we point out in the documentary, it's like, if I were not just in the state of Michigan, but I would imagine most other states and cities, if you go to your local library, you can't get a library card without showing your ID.
It is insane that you shouldn't have to show your ID in order to participate in the voting process.
And by the way, this is something else we point out.
It's like almost 80% of Americans, both left and right, agree that you should have to show a photo ID in order to vote.
This is not a partisan thing.
I go down the street from our ranch.
There's a big lake lake across the street, and I have to go about, I don't know, five miles to
this little
crate little kind of general store.
I had to get a fishing license.
I needed ID.
Everybody in there knows who I am.
I needed ID to be able to get a fishing license.
Did you guys see Texas Representative Wesley Hunt talk about this?
No.
Yesterday.
It's brilliant.
He shows all of his government-issued ID.
He's black.
He shows all of his government-issued IDs, including a driver's license and
a passport.
And he's got like six different forms of ID showing how insulting it is that the left is saying that blacks don't have ID.
It's ridiculous.
Well, this will give you kind of a clue into how sinister this, you know, this initiative is, is that Republicans in the state of Michigan actually
had a bill that they passed that was going to expand and allow free photo ID for people.
So there would be no excuse to say, well, it's too expensive.
And
the idea is that minorities can't afford it, I guess, which is inherently racist.
We've been told they don't know where the DMV is.
Right, right.
Which again seems a little racist to assume.
It sure does.
But so Governor Gretchen Whitmer actually vetoed that bill.
Oh, geez.
Just to give you an idea of where, I mean, what possible reason, as our friend Steve Dace likes to say, what is the innocent benign explanation for vetoing such legislation?
There isn't one.
So
they can't even now, because of this new legislation, they can't even ask for ID.
Correct.
So you go in, right, to the voting booth.
You want to go into the voting voting booth.
You go in and you say, my name's Glenn Beck.
And, you know, they'll probably, maybe, I don't even know.
Do they ask for an address?
And they look you up if you're on the rolls.
Or in the case of Michigan, you can now just register.
You can go in and say, I'm not registered.
I want to register right now.
But none of it is hooked up to the internet.
So they can't verify.
anything.
Right.
And so you can go in and register and then just get a ballot and vote.
What could go wrong?
What could possibly go wrong?
You know, and it's always from the left who claims that they care so much about democracy, which is just so laughable at this point.
Not that we have a democracy, but if you did care about democracy and you did care, you know, about the state of your country, you would want election integrity and security.
That would be at the top of your list.
And instead, they are trying to, you know, in the state of Michigan, and I'll go back to Michigan again, in the state of Michigan, they now have a constitutional right to vote vote by mail.
I mean, you are talking about such an outdated system.
I think France banned it in like 1975.
France uses paper.
All of these other first world countries, civilized countries, have decided that mail-in voting is terrible, a horrible way of doing things.
Of course it is.
Jimmy Carter co-authored a bipartisan report that said we cannot have mail-in voting because it makes it more likely to you know to have fraud and all sorts.
I mean, this was something that we all agreed upon decades ago and now all of a sudden there are states that are run by these left-wing secretary of state you know secretaries of state and they are going in and changing the system to allow these types of things
let me ask you let me ask the the average the average person you're driving in your car and you hear about Glenn's bank
say that you knew a Glenn that had any kind of credibility at all.
Glenn's bank.
And
we invite you in to put your money in our bank.
And we're going to make it easy for you to write checks.
We're going to make it easy for you to come and withdraw your money.
We're never going to ask you for ID.
Would you put your money in that bank?
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
So why would we do this with electric on anything?
On anything.
It's crazy.
So give me some white pill news, can you?
Yeah, I think so.
I mean, everyone will see when they go and watch this New Blaze Originals that they can go watch right now.
They will see some hope in the sense that there are organizations that are working around the clock to prevent these types of things from happening.
They are largely successful in the courts.
One of them is, of course, PILF, the Public Interest Legal Foundation.
I spoke with them.
They are suing the crap out of these states and out of these secretaries of states who are engaging in this business.
They are suing about the, you know, all of the dead people on the voter rolls in the state of Michigan.
The RNC is now suing the state of Michigan for the, you know, it's just that there's 105%
of the Michigan population that's currently registered to vote.
And, you know, I'm not great at math, but I'm good enough to know that there's something a little bit wrong with that.
So that's right.
It's hard to have 105% of anything.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I'm going to to have 105% of that pie over there.
Wow.
That's a skill.
Right.
So, I mean, you know, in talking to these experts, they say, vote.
Don't be discouraged and not vote because we can still blow them out.
We can still overwhelm the system and we should.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
Knowledge is power.
I mean, we are exposing these people for what they are doing.
And the more exposure that we can give them, the less likely it is that they are able to just commit this in broad daylight.
And like I said, we have these legal foundations who are suing these states.
And in most cases, in a lot of cases, they are largely successful in that.
So if Secretary of State Benson isn't going to remove dead people from her voter rolls until the courts force her to, well, you know what?
At the end of the day, she's still going to be forced to remove these people.
So we are making moves.
We have organizations that are tackling this, but we have to expose this for what it really is.
I will tell you, I think that there is
a good chance that
a landslide does happen.
I mean,
I just can't imagine going into the booth and you being a Democrat and pulling the lever for more of this
and saying, yeah, I want, no,
and I think Joe Biden
is the guy to trust with possible World War III.
I think he's got the economy right.
I think, you know, all of the things that he has done, you might pull it for RFK Jr.
or Trump, but I just cannot see people voting for him.
And
honestly, when people ask themselves,
was I better off four years ago?
Like a lot better off?
The answer is yes.
And, you know, we've always asked, I wish somebody would just run this place like a business.
Well, that's what Donald Trump was doing.
And look at the results until COVID happened.
So go out and vote.
I think if everybody, they're going to try to blackpill you.
But if you don't listen to that and you go out and vote, I think the numbers will be overwhelming.
But what do I know?
Well, I would tell you this too, Glenn.
There are certain states that have already passed election integrity and voter security laws.
So states like Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Florida, I mean the more states that are passing these voter integrity laws, which I know the left will tell you is racist and they'll tell you they're they're not allowing you to drink water in line and all of these other lies.
The fact of the matter is these are states that are making elections more secure and we can have other states follow suit in that.
All right, Blaze Original, episode number five, voter fraud exposed, how elections can be stolen.
It's a new doc and it's out now.
If you are a Blaze TV subscriber, subscriber, if you're not, go to blazetv.com/slash Glenn.
And what is the promo code?
Is it voter fraud?
Voter fraud, yes.
Yeah, voter fraud.
And you can watch it now.
It's available on Blaze TV.
Sarah, thank you so much.
Thank you.
Back in just a second.
First, you know, the terror attacks on October 7th, ever since that happened,
anti-Semitism has become, I mean, Pat, we have talked about anti-Semitism happening in our country for I don't know how many years.
I can't believe how fast we have just become this anti-Semitic country that is like, yeah, yeah, so what?
They're just saying they're going to kill all the Jews.
I mean,
this is why I've partnered with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
And today, I'm coming to ask you to stand with the IFCJ and just take a pledge.
Raise your voice.
You can be as important as an Oscar Schindler or Corey Tenboom were.
You have to just take the first step, and that is pledge, pledge that we will stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters to never be silent.
You don't have to be for this war, against this war.
It doesn't matter.
Just when
they start coming for the Jews, this time will Christians stand up and say, nope, I will not be silent.
Show the Jewish people that they are not alone.
I can't imagine being Jewish in even America today.
For the month of June, we're just asking Christians to sign the pledge, which will be delivered to the President of Israel.
It will show that Christians in America not only stand in solidarity, but they're speaking up as well.
Let's make that stand today with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
You can sign the pledge.
Go to supportifcj.org.
Supportifcj.org.
Take a stand today.
10 seconds.
Station ID.
So, coming this weekend, wherever you get your podcast, the first two episodes of my brand new podcast series, The Beck Story, is in the back story, but it's Beck, I guess.
It's a historical podcast that I've been wanting to do for for a very long time.
This podcast is, I think, six or eight parts,
and it is finally rolling out this Saturday.
The first two episodes, The Pilot, which aired a year ago, will be coming out.
And then right after that, you'll get both episodes, episode number two.
This is something that
will explain how did we get here?
Why do we keep not listening to ourselves, but listen to the experts how did this happen
um
it was the progressive movement and it was also the movement of science and as soon as we said oh we're we're scientific we can you know eugenics and we can measure how everything and how long it should take a person to build a house or build a car
The experts took a sledgehammer to our constitutional system of government.
Far-reaching consequences.
We take you through all of the experts and how we got here.
It is really amazing.
We're digging into eugenics, government surveillance, judicial activism, how education in the media became dominated by the left, and so much more.
Each episode is jam-packed with true stories of our past that you probably have never heard before.
I didn't know a lot of the stories that are in this until we started doing research on it.
The series is chock full of fascinating history that
you're not going to get on the history channel, I can promise you that.
You can catch the first episode of the Beck Story on Friday night.
That's the pilot episode that we tested last summer.
You can also watch it on my YouTube channel.
Episode two is about Madison Grant, one of the most uninfluential fathers in eugenics.
It was embraced by the progressives as legitimate science.
It is still
the science that the progressives,
in many ways, still hold on to.
It was embraced by the Nazis as well.
You will hear its sinister roots and how it affects us today
because the experts tell us it's so.
Don't miss the back story, my new history podcast series available this weekend wherever you get your podcast.
Oh my gosh.
Pat, I feel like we haven't even
begun to talk about everything that is happening in the world.
Did you see the House holding Attorney General Garland in contempt?
Yeah.
And they're threatening to
have him arrested.
Yeah.
It's not going to happen.
I was just going to say nothing's going to come of that.
Nothing.
Nothing's going to happen.
They like to throw this out for
showman purposes, but nothing ever comes of it.
Holding him in contempt of Congress is a good move, but to actually have him arrested, that's not going to happen.
Yeah, and look, holding him in contempt of Congress,
that doesn't seem to work
for, it doesn't do anything for people on the left.
Instead, what it does is it puts people like Steve Bannon in jail
because he was in contempt of Congress.
So was the other guy that was with Trump.
He went to jail for contempt of Congress.
But
Holder, he never went to jail.
No one on the left ever pays for that.
And they won't this time.
Glenn Beck.
All right.

Check out my show, Pack Ray Unleashed, every weekday, 7 to 9 Eastern, 6 to 8, live or anytime, anywhere you get your podcast
I want to introduce you to a very good friend first of all Pat Gray I want to thank Pat for sitting in for Stu for the next few days But I also want to introduce you to Nathan Nipper.
He's one of the chief writers of the television program.
Fondly, we like to call it the Glenn Beck TV thing.
That's its official name.
But he is also the writer and researcher for the new podcast, the Beck Story.
And
it's unbelievable, Nathan, what you did with that.
Unbelievable.
I learned so much.
And I know you did too, researching.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
But you also have a new book.
And I don't know exactly how you have done the podcast, the writing on the show, and
a really good book.
Oh, well, thank you.
It's not easy.
I don't recommend it.
But, you know, and it's also, obviously, I enjoy it to a certain extent or I wouldn't do it.
But
it's a hobby, you know, on the side as well, this fiction writing.
And so
over time, if you do it a little bit, you got a book.
Right, right.
And I'm sure ChatGPT helps you write the TV show.
You wouldn't believe how much it helps.
Okay.
So, tell the story.
I think this is a fascinating book because when I first started reading it, I'm like,
wait, what?
Because
it starts in, is it Berkeley or San Francisco?
San Francisco, yeah.
Yeah.
And it's eye bleed agonizing.
Liberals would recognize it as ho-home.
Yeah.
Tell the story.
Sure.
American Inheritance is about Tom Brock.
He's a young guy in his 20s, a graduate student in San Francisco.
He has a mountain of student loan debt, and he really buys into the whole left-wing worldview about America, you know, that it's irredeemably racist and oppressive and the whole nine yards.
And Tom has a grandfather whom he's never met for reasons that become clear in the story.
And his grandfather is, his name is Bob, and he's the political polar opposite from Tom.
He's very conservative.
He's a veteran, a Vietnam,
wealthy entrepreneur, believes in the American dream, you know, and is really upset about what he perceives as the left tearing down the nation that he loves.
And so when his
I'm sorry, but the grandson has been, the grandson has been told by his mother the whole time, he's a vicious, awful man.
So he has no love for this grandfather.
yeah he's a complete stranger they've never met
and so the grandfather though when he gets wind of Tom's kind of radical politics he offers him a deal that Tom is in no position to refuse and that is that he can earn a massive inheritance if he will complete this very long road trip following an itinerary designed by the grandfather specifically to try to alter his grandson's cynical view of America, you know.
And so the story is about Tom's journey and the people and places he encounters along the way and how it affects his view of America's past, present, and future.
And
you take at one point
somebody from Great Britain and
that hastens his
love for America.
Yeah, it was
it's it's a third wheel sort of character that I won't give away too many details of the plot, but the way that they meet and she ends up accompanying him on a lot of this trip.
And it was,
I needed a third perspective sort of for the story because the grandfather and grandson are constantly having these
very current, you know, political fights about everything that's going on.
And she's sort of this outsider fan perspective.
She has her own reasons and her own past for why she's interested in America, but she's here for the first time.
And
she believes in the best things about America.
And that sort of helps him to see them as well.
Who did you write this for?
Because like I say, when it starts, you nail, I mean,
you know, that scene where he's making out on a couch
with a very liberal girlfriend.
And,
you know, he just really wants to make out and she wants to talk about, was it RFK?
You know, and I mean, it's just,
it is,
you will recognize it.
If you're liberal, you would recognize, I think, that kind of mentality.
Or if you live in New York, you've seen that a million times.
Who's your target audience for this?
Yeah, well, I mean, the target audience is really everybody.
It's not for
kids.
It's not a young adult book, obviously, but I think older teenagers could benefit from it.
But it's really, I tried to write it for everyone.
So I tried to have a believable left-wing character, believable right-wing characters, and then this sort of
neutral, in a way, middle, you know, as well perspective.
Because I was hoping that, you know, people would be interested in reading this and passing it along to someone that they know doesn't believe the same as they do politically.
And
the interesting thing is you write something like that and you hope that that's going to be the response,
but you don't know, right?
It's kind of a risk.
But I've already received some, actually got some emails.
I got an email last week from a dad who sounded like he was a veteran himself.
He really enjoyed the book.
And he was saying that he hoped to pass it on to his two, two of his daughters, who he described as very left-leaning.
And I thought, wow, that's amazing.
That's exactly what I was sort of going for with this.
Yeah.
And so it seems to be happening.
Nathan,
you wrote a Christmas book.
What was that?
Two years ago?
That's really good.
I know you've written
scripts and movies and all kinds of stuff.
I just love working with you.
You're truly one of the good guys.
You're actually, did you used to teach history at one point, too?
I did.
That was a dark time.
And obviously.
Obviously, it didn't teach you.
What grade were you teaching?
What grade were you?
I taught eighth graders, and a couple of times I taught seniors, actually.
and I actually really enjoyed those students.
I really enjoyed the eighth graders.
They were they were my favorite actually because they were still so interested and kind of wide-eyed about it, you know, without the cines.
Yeah.
So yeah.
Well, you must have been good because you're a great storyteller.
Nathan's book is out now.
You can give it, get it wherever books are sold.
It's called American Inheritance, American Inheritance by Nathan Nipper.
Nathan, thank you.
Thanks, Glenn.
Love you, brother.
You bet.
Bye-bye.
All right.
Let me tell you about our sponsor this half-hour.
It's Rough Greens.
Here's what Barbara has to say about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.
She said, I have a six-year-old cocker spaniel that has some behavior issues over food, never seems satisfied.
He also has allergies.
We're only a few days into our supply, but we can already see an improvement.
He's eating well, licking his bowl, and my fingers, if they have any rough greens residue on them.
He rests more soundly, seems to have more energy.
So far, so good.
You know, I will tell you, it's, I never thought Uno
would eat without us hovering over him.
He's just always like, where are you going?
Where are you going?
Why?
Well, you won't stay here.
I sit next to you while you eat.
Why won't you?
Oh my gosh.
He was such a finicky eater.
Rough greens, I just wanted him to eat.
I thought he was healthy and like a puppy.
No, he wasn't.
I saw him become a puppy again because of Rough Greens, the energy and all of the stuff that he gets from it.
And he eats his meals and licks his bowl.
It's Rough Greens, rufffgreens.com/slash back.

Pat Gray filling in for Stu today.
He's off with his son in,
what is it, Coopersville?
Cooperstown.
Coopersville.
Coopersville.
Cooperstown, that's right.
His son is in a baseball playoff, and so we wish him well.
We hope dad, you know, somehow or another is out for popcorn
just so he misses it.
You know, he can lie to his son and say, I saw it.
It was great.
So his son's not affected.
But we do kind of hope that something disappointing happens for Stu, Stu, but not his son.
As Pat Gray joins me, have you been following what's happening in Portland with
the felonies over the pride flag?
I think that's Spokane, but close.
Yeah,
three kids, I mean, I don't know how old they are, teens, I guess.
are riding around on these little scooters and they leave tire marks on a pride flag that's been you know painted into the into the pavement.
Charged with felonies for that.
Felonies.
Okay, so this is a no-go zone.
You can drive over it.
You just can't leave any tire tracks on it.
Now,
I just want to give perspective to this and to show you this is a religion.
Absolutely, positively.
a religion.
Imagine if somebody in, let's say, Texas, Tyler, Texas decides they're going to paint the face of Jesus on the main street.
Then they say, if you leave tire tracks on that face, it's a felony.
Can you imagine the calls of fascism immediately?
You can burn a flag, an American flag,
but you cannot,
right, you cannot leave a mark on the pride flag, which has been painted on the road.
Never seen the scooter.
Do you hear the scooters?
Never.
Have you seen the scooters that they're, you know, that you can rent?
You know, you can just pick them up and take them.
They now have GPS coordinates to shut the engine off at the pride flag.
If you get close to the pride flag, it shuts your engine off, so you can't take the scooter over it.
You have to go around it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's incredible.
It's incredible.
Something similar happened last week with a guy doing donuts on a pride flag in a different city, and he left tire marks on it, and that guy was also arrested.
Well,
Pete Buddhajudge explains the LGBT pride flag and the appeal to heaven flags.
Here's what he said.
I also hope that most Americans can understand the difference between a flag that symbolizes, you know, love and acceptance and signals to people who have sometimes feared for their safety that they're going to be okay and
insurrectionist symbology.
I'll just leave it at that.
Oh, my gosh.
Insurrection.
Okay.
An appeal to heaven.
An appeal to heaven.
You're asking for God's help, okay, to be free.
My God.
By the way, you know, that started in Massachusetts.
Which who else arrived in Massachusetts?
Oh, the pilgrims that were afraid for their life and faced persecution.
Oh my gosh, this guy is crazy.
And by the way, it does not promote love.
This whole thing has gone so far.
It is promoting hatred.
Hatred of anyone who doesn't,
will not parrot exactly what you say?
That's not love.
That's fear.
That's intimidation.
It's fascism.
And the appeal to heaven flag was not an insurrectionist flag.
I don't know if you know that.
It was actually a call to save the state.
And the reason the tree was on it is because it was known for their lumber.
And
England was coming over and taking all the lumber.
And the colony said,
this is our lumber.
We want to use this to make masts of ships.
That's what that flag is all about, but
I'm sure he knew that.
Here's a border agent on CNN yesterday talking about
his job keeping
illegals from crossing the border.
Listen to this.
What do you think this executive order is that going to do anything?
Does it frustrate you when you hear that?
When you hear the narrative, like, why aren't Border Patrol doing anything?
And
our hands are tied.
If I don't allow them to cross, and they call me for plane, now I'm in trouble.
I'm gonna use my guy.
Believe that.
They're there to prevent illegal border crossings.
And if they do their job, they're going to be fired for doing it.
That's where we are, though, under this administration.
That's where we are.
Wow.
I just,
again, I just, I'm filled with this feeling that this is all coming apart.
And the average American, by the time we get to November, is, is, I mean, they're already seeing it.
Another six months of this kind of
degrading even of Joe Biden's,
you know, his age and his mental acuity and
his physical abilities.
I just can't imagine.
But then again,
you know, I believe in.
fairy tales and the the right win and everything else, you know.
See, there was a couple of other things I wanted to hit with.
Oh, here's one of them that kind of makes me feel this way.
This is from Ohio.
Listen to
this about Ohio voters.
59%
said they and their families, though, were better off while Trump was president, including 13% of Democrats.
13% of Democrats.
Yeah.
Wow.
59%,
13% of Democrats saying they're better off.
If you just depress by 13%,
you know, in states, you just depress by 5%,
he loses.
He loses.
There is all kinds of enthusiasm and a lot of passion to stop the insanity and to get our economy and our country back on track.
There's not a lot of enthusiasm to do anything other than stop Trump.
That's not enough to win.
Just don't think it's enough to win.
The Glenn Beck Program.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I've no room
to compromise.
We gotta stay together.
If we're gonna survive,
stay the love straight
and hold the line.
It's a new day, a time to rain.
Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glen Beck Program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.
Do you remember the
book, Lies My Teacher Told Me?
It was a left-leaning book, but it was going after things that were just sanitized, taken out of American history.
The teachers never taught it.
And the bad things about America need to be taught as well as the good things about America.
If your kids are surprised, wait a minute, we did what?
If they're surprised by the bad things that America has done, you haven't done your job as a parent or an educator, quite honestly.
You have to present both sides.
And so that was correcting some of the things, and then it just kind of flew out of control.
And now correction needs to be happening on the other side.
The lies my liberal teacher told me.
Well, that's a new book out by Wilfred Riley.
He is a Kentucky State University associate professor.
So I'm guessing he doesn't have tenure.
Writing this book and then being on this this show is probably not going to help his career an awful lot, but hopefully it will help you and your kids know more about American history.
We join him in 60 seconds.
First, let me talk to you about Patriot Mobile.
The convenience of modern American life sometimes complicates our efforts to maintain our values.
Until not long ago, if you wanted to have good cell phone coverage, you had to go to the big guys, the companies like Verizon.
And you didn't really have any choice.
I mean, in Verizon, I mean,
donates to not just leftist causes, but Planned Parenthood, things that you're just dead set against.
We don't have to live that way anymore.
We don't have to do business with people who don't like us,
don't respect us, or just have values that are on the opposite end of the spectrum.
Why would we do that?
Because it's not like we disagree on a few things.
That one is really kind of important.
You know, some people want to destroy America.
I think we should save the American Constitution, Declaration, and Bill of Rights.
But I don't get it.
I'm not going to give my money to people that are trying to destroy us.
Patriot Mobile, you get great phone service.

Wilfred Riley, welcome to the program.
How are you, sir?
Good.
Good to be back on the show.
Yeah, last time you were on, we were talking about the 1776 project, if I remember right.
Yeah, we were talking about 1776
and some of the issues with the 1619 project, which also come up in this book a little bit.
Yeah.
So talk about the lies my liberal teacher told me.
Yeah, so the new book, I mean, you just named it.
It's called Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me.
And it's a response to not just really one book, but kind of a trend in American education and American media.
So there have been like eight or ten of these books over the past couple of decades.
I mean, the one you mentioned, it's actually pretty good, is James Lowen's Lies My Teacher Told Me, came out in 1995.
But, I mean, you also have the 1619 Project's book, 1619, A Black History of America and the Lies They're Telling You that came out a couple of years ago.
You have Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, A Native American History of the United States, which is literally just a chronicling of all the battles the Indians lost and none of the ones they won, which came out in 1968.
You kind of wonder why the war went on for 400 years when you read it.
But I mean, that old communist, Howard Zinn's, a people's history in the United States, and the lies they're telling you.
And you kind of, I mean, we've all read these in high school or college, and you kind of get the theme as you go through them.
But reading them as an academic scientist, there are social scientists.
There are two points that they really keep making.
And one is kind of Western culture.
white descent culture, American culture is the worst society in history.
Like we oppressed women and we kept slaves and we treated battle captives horribly and no one else really did.
And point two is if you know this, you are one of the elect.
Like the books will actually include lines like your parents probably don't know too much about feminism or don't know what happened to the Indians.
So you're kind of one of the smart new kids.
And when you think about it, that's what woke means.
Like everyone was asleep and now you're awake.
You're aware of what's really going on in this filthy society.
So
to me, the basic perspective that these authors were coming from was just BS.
Like the idea that the American Academy
is too patriotic and leans too far to the right and spends all day complimenting the USA was just crazy.
So I decided to actually read the textbooks we've been using for the past like 20 years, populations of people and all that, and see whether there was any element of truth to that at all.
And what I found is there's some jingoistic stuff.
Our troops get praised quite appropriately, but that most of the big lies in society are told from the other direction.
And so in my book, I counter two themes.
One, obviously, I don't think Western culture is any worse than any other human culture, Arabic, Chinese, so on.
In fact, I think it's way better, and I make that argument.
But at very least, if you put our society in context, you can't claim that the other great societies didn't also have slaves, which is something most Americans no longer know.
You can't claim that women's rights existed really anywhere in the world outside of certain tribes before the last 100 years or so.
Portal captives in general were blinded or castrated or whatever, and then you got to practice your boat rowing skills for the rest of your life.
So
these points I just make, and it's important because we've almost forgotten that.
But then I think the second point is more important.
I make the point that
the narrative that's presented is kind of edgy and rebellious, like Marxism-like, mainstream feminism, the left wing of the Democratic Party, is not, in fact, some rebellious thing that only cool high school kids know about.
It's the absolute mainstream of society.
AOC is in Congress.
Joe Biden's in the White House.
You know, Pride Parades are sponsored by Halliburton.
So this is the educational curriculum.
It's not some occasional supplement you get.
And what I'm pointing out in the book is that that most of the things that we are teaching are empirically wrong.
Like the resistance is sort of the center-right dad who's looking at this and thinking, wow, this is all BS, isn't it?
So I try to write a book for that guy.
So
let me take you through a couple of the topics in the book.
Native Americans were peaceful people who spent all day dancing.
You know, I love Native American culture and history, and some of them were really good, you know, like us.
They were, you know, people, and they would war from time to time, but they were really good and tried to be fair and honest.
And some of them were horrible monsters, just like, I don't know, us.
Yeah, well, that's a point that I make.
So
someone once said, actually, I think, interestingly enough, this was a slave trader, Tipu Tip, who would have known.
But he said that the great weakness of the liberal or of the white man was the belief that other people were different from and better than you.
And the great weakness of what he called the warrior, the barbarian, was the belief that other people were different from and worse than you.
And today we could probably sub in the liberal and the conservative.
But his comment was that all people are pretty much just the same.
Yes.
All groups of people everywhere in the world have the exact same vices.
If you went to a stable black African country, Nigeria, Ghana, people would just be people.
We went to a business meeting, they'd be people.
You went to China, you know, a little regimented over there, but people would just be people.
Certainly that would be the case in Thailand, so on down the line.
And that's what we found with Native Americans when I did serious research.
Yeah, there were tribes that were peaceful.
Most of those were in the process of being conquered when the white incomers arrived, by the way.
But there were also a lot of warrior tribes that were brutal by any standard because you didn't have the regulations that existed in the old world.
You didn't have the laws that had descended from Rome.
You didn't have nations around you where a Christian king might check you if your behavior became too extreme.
So, you had people like the Aztecs who actually built a cannibal kingdom that was about the size of Mexico.
And if you lost a war with the Aztecs, they'd eat you.
The surrounding nations would send in sort of hunger game-style tributes to the Aztec Empire every year, and there'd be an annual ceremony where they'd kill and eat 50,000 people.
And none of this is disputed, it's widely accepted in anthropology.
Talk to me about the Red Scare.
Talk to me about the Red Scare here.
It didn't catch any communists.
It was a horrible blemish.
And in some ways, it was a horrible blemish.
But in other ways,
that story that there weren't communist infiltration,
that they didn't catch anybody, that's not true.
No, it's not true at all.
So one of the things I do in this book is contrast...
kind of the the first glance public perception that the average upper middle class american or blue-collar aristocrat, and certainly their kids, have of historical incidents with reality.
And very often, the two don't even resemble one another.
So, the RIDS scare, I mean, now Joe McCarthy had some problems personally, drank a little too much, he got mislabeled some people.
But, I mean, like Huok, for example, the House on American Activities Committee, correctly identified a large number of people who were communist spies as communist spies.
The idea that we were just pointing out random random citizens who happened to be black or left-leaning and accusing them of communism is false, and we now know that.
And by the way, kind of getting to the point, we know that for a specific reason.
Like in the 1990s, we finished the declassification of what are known as the Venona cables, which are the V-E-N-O-N-A for the listening audience.
Yeah.
And a lot of smart people on the right know that, but this isn't widely known in general.
These are the decrypted exchanges between Russia and her agents over here.
So we now, and we were friendly friendly with Mr.
Putin in the late 1990s, so we have this.
I mean, we know who they were.
And you can just go to Wikipedia or Britannica and look up Venona cables and see who the Russian agents in the USA were.
And as a political scientist, I mean, you're often expected to work on these.
I've looked at them.
So
long story short, many of the people that were accused of Russian espionage in the 50s and 60s, I mean, you're talking about the Rosenbergs, Alger Hiss, all these people who became cause celebs for the global left, Dalton Trumbo,
all those three were, in fact, Russian spies.
And we've known that for decades.
It's just sort of been minimized as part of this narrative where McCarthyism has become a word for unprovokedly, baselessly accusing people of crimes.
And I don't think that's valid.
And I go through this whole writ scare chapter where I name the spies and I point out,
look, we can say that one or two of these congressmen overstepped, but there was another global empire at this time, and they were communist, and they did have the country full of spies, and here are the spies.
But I feel a little when it comes to the Red Scare,
I don't like the fact that
we were reporting on each other and that we were
forced to give lists.
That's really what wokeness is doing right now.
turn people in who have a different opinion.
There were people that were communist or had attended communist meetings that weren't necessarily spies.
Going after spies, that's one thing.
But having the entire country,
you know,
turn around and
just hunt for people, I don't think is a good thing.
Do you?
Well, no, I generally agree.
But I mean, to put that in context, we did this under COVID.
I mean, you know, there's a hot line in the airports.
Yeah,
right.
Yeah, no, I totally disapprove, but just there's a hot hotline in the airports right now.
If you see something, say something.
I mean, I don't think I've ever called it, but I mean, my fiancé called it once to report suspected trafficking.
You know, so we do this for a large number of things.
And, of course, we can criticize, and I think guys would be more likely to criticize that prevalent kind of longhouse snooping in society.
But the reality is that we do essentially what happened during the RID scare for a lot of relatively inconsequential things.
Communism was actually an existential threat to the USA.
Oh, it was.
The USA and the USSR.
I think it is still.
Yeah, I wouldn't dispute you on that one.
But the USA and the USSR almost fought a nuclear war.
So, I mean, this idea of, well, if there's a one in 10 chance of nuclear war, you know, we're going to put the boys out there and we're going to have agents following people around if we think there's a chance that you're a Russian asset.
I do think there were some violations of liberties.
I think some of those were justifiable.
But the main point is that
the story that's being told is that almost all of this was sort of made up.
And I open each chapter with quotes from the textbooks and from major journals.
And those about Joe McCarthy are almost all along the lines of he never found a single communist, he made up a list of communists, never identified a single person.
I just don't think that's accurate.
I think he was among the worst of the people doing this, but we found four or five hundred communists, according to Badona.
Did you ever read Blacklisted by History?
Yes, I did.
What did you think of that?
Yeah, I think that that is a lot of the, I think it's largely correct.
That's actually a reference in the McCarthy chapter, actually.
Yeah, it is.
It is really...
When I read that the first time, I actually
set the book down because I thought, if I read this, I better find out if this author is, you know, a stable old guy or a nutjob, because I knew it would change my opinion of things that I had always thought were true.
And it did change my opinion on the Red Scare and McCarthy.
Like you said,
he was the worst one out there, and he was not a good messenger.
But he's not the guy that everybody tried to make him out to be.
Or at least, you know,
he wasn't the guy who was on a witch hunt without any evidence.
No, I think that's correct.
Yeah, I talked about this on page 29 of the book, where I actually provide a link to the book.
So, yeah, in the 2007 book, Blacklisted by History, The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and his Fight Against America's Enemies, renowned conservative historian M.
Stanton Evans argues that much of the strong and immediate backlash to McCarthy's allegations occurred because the government wasn't about to admit how real McCarthy's worries were about infiltration.
Last line, but U.S.
officials from both parties, this is a quote, weren't eager to have the reality of communist penetration on their watch and their failure to do much about it broken down in front of the general public.
So that was one of the reasons.
And I think, again, we see this with a lot of stuff, including the recent backlash to COVID, including the debates about the border.
Like, you're in a dangerous position if you point out a systemic failure by the government, especially a bipartisan systemic failure.
Like, even in the USA, you might disappear.
And in much of Europe and all the rest of the world, you would.
Because
you're pointing out that the organs of state screwed up.
Wilfred Riley is the name of the man I've been speaking to.
He is the author of Lies.
My liberal teacher told me.
It's available everywhere.
Wilfred, as always, good to have you on.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Glenn.
Thanks for having me.
You bet.
So, if you are a shooter, you know how expensive it is when you go to the gun range.
I mean, every time I fire a bullet at a range, I think, well, how much did that bullet cost?
And can I get another one eventually to replace it?
There is a different way of doing it, and you can use it for dry firing or live firing.
It's called Mantis X, and it is really,
really good.
I'm a pretty good shot, but skills perish.
You know, I usually only live fire shoot when I'm up at the ranch in the summer.
And,
you know, that means for nine months out of the year, I haven't shot a gun.
And you lose it quickly.
You can dry fire practice or live fire practice.
And this is used widely by the the military now.
I think it started with the Marines.
It's called Mantis X.
And it's a little device you put at the end of your barrel.
And whether you're at the range or in your home and you're pulling the trigger, it will tell you exactly what you're doing wrong, when it's happening, how you're moving the gun.
And I improved within...
20 minutes.
I think I went from like a 85 to a 95.
And most people can do that in 20 minutes.
X.
Mantis X.
It's like having a firearms instructor right in your front pocket, and it'll save you a ton of money as well.

You know,
history is
so fascinating.
And if you are curious, you constantly learn.
I'm reading a whole series of books from Annie Jacobson.
I think it's her name, yeah, Jacobson.
She is fantastic,
and she's written a lot of books.
And one of them that I'm reading right now is
Operation Paperclip.
And Pat, I honestly, I'm wrestling with this so much on, you know,
do you remember what Operation Paperclip was?
Not right off the top of my head, no.
So it was bringing the Nazis in, the scientists in,
and those who were making, you know, weapons of death,
you know, even Wernher von Braun.
But we brought some really,
really bad guys in to our country, and we didn't tell the people about it.
And I'm convinced that
that did
possibly more damage to our country than good, especially in the medical field and the scientific field.
You know,
you've worked with people who are like, you know what, life doesn't matter.
Just doesn't matter.
You know, back in Germany, we would whatever.
You don't want those people influencing your medical fields.
And so I'm reading this, and I want to talk to Annie about her feeling on was it a good thing or a bad thing.
I've not heard from anybody yet that I've found that it has a real strong
case one way or the other.
The case they were making there is: if we don't take them, the Russians will take them.
Well, no, not
if we hang them.
You were doing crimes against humanity.
What do you say we hang them?
And then God gets them.
Glenn back.
All right.
We are seemingly living in a time with endless money printing, which is chasing a growing and terrifyingly huge national debt.
Even if you're not angry for how much of your wealth is suffering in this economy, for instance, your dollar is worth 24 cents less than it was in 2020.
So when Joe Biden came in, he has lost a quarter of every dollar you have.
Okay.
So what are you going to do about it?
How are you going to protect your wealth?
Well, the one thing that keeps going up is gold.
And this is what the central banks all over the world are investing in.
They're buying it like crazy right now.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
It is Thursday.
We've got a lot of stuff to share with you, bits and pieces here of things that are in the news.
The record for gold, coffee, copper, and cocoa,
that's not just because of, you know, storms and the cocoa, you know, the coffee trees, the coffee beans.
You know, the trees are very old now.
No, no, there's a lot more going on.
Also, the Russians, yes, it is true.
People are spotting them off the coast of Florida and saying, wait,
what?
They are.
They're doing a military exercise and trying to give us a taste of their own medicine.
They'll be there through the summer.
They're in Venezuela and in Cuba.
Yay!
Yeah, just a nuclear-powered submarine, though, with hypersonic missiles on it.
Don't worry about it.
Nothing to worry about.
And big warships, too.
Yeah.
Did you see that Piers Morgan had Candace Owens on, and she is promoting
the theory that Brigitte Macrone, the first lady of France, was born a man?
This is the first I'm hearing of this.
I didn't realize so many first ladies have
been
men either.
Why would you take now?
Why would you take on Macron's wife?
you got Big Mike?
That's a good question.
Yeah, can we focus on Big Mike for Big Mike?
Yeah, come on.
Let's clean up our own house here first, Candace.
It's so ridiculous.
Piers was a little bit more.
By the way, the Big Mike thing.
Hang on just a sec.
The Big Mike thing is absolutely not true.
I don't believe it in a second, but it is such a fun.
It is.
Such a fun one.
It just is fun.
Big Mike.
There's no doubt about that.
But Piers was pissed off at Candace and said, you've produced zero evidence that she's a man.
It's been deeply offensive to her, her husband, to all her family.
You keep promoting it to millions of people that follow you.
And she said, I think Brigitte Macrone is a trans woman.
And I think the fact that Brigitte, and then he was, then he interrupted again.
But she's not.
So then she just got frustrated.
Isn't she like
a former model or something?
Brigitte?
Yeah, I think.
No, I think, isn't she the one that's quite a bit older than him?
And I think she's a teacher.
Okay.
Yeah.
There's one of them.
One of them was like a hot model, you know, for the president of France at one point had a hot model, which you'd expect from the president of France.
You would expect that.
Or Donald Trump.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes.
Who's still married, in fact, to a hot model that has clearly never been a man.
But
eventually,
Piers offered $100,000.
She's not Big Jeff.
No.
You don't think she's Big Jeff?
No, I do not.
Okay.
So he offered $100,000
to
$100,000 bet on the upcoming libel trial
because Brigitte McCrone is actually suing somebody right now for this claim.
And so Morgan is trying to bet
Candace Owens, and I guess anybody else that believes in this theory, $100,000 that
she is not a former man.
So that would be interesting to see
what comes of that, if anything.
They'll probably just sweep it under the rug like they've done with the Big Mike thing.
And then I'm going to be really disappointed.
You know, we can't get Big Mike to address it.
And I don't know why.
It's wrong.
It's wrong.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, it's so funny.
By the way, I don't know if you've seen this at the museum, which we're going to have a grand opening of our museum in Dallas this fall.
No date yet, but this fall we're going to be doing a grand opening.
And you'll be able to see it for yourself in the museum.
We do have Barack Obama's birth certificate.
Oh, wow.
From the hospital in Nairobi?
That's great.
No,
no, stop it.
Stop it.
It was Moscow.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah.
That's right.
Yeah.
No, you know, from Hawaii.
And it's, it's, I mean, and it's pretty confusing.
These things are just.
Yeah.
Do you know that Hoover, they did the same thing.
Hoover did the same thing to
who is he originally running against?
I can't remember.
But
no, no, no, no.
It was against Hoover.
They said that Hoover was not born in the U.S.
And his birth certificate was at a, you know,
had a different location location on it other than the U.S.
as well.
And it was a big deal back then.
They did the same thing to Hoover.
Wow.
And, you know, you don't do that to the guy who invented the vacuum.
That's just not right.
No, it says it.
That's just not right.
I mean, look at the good he's done for society.
What would you do with your carpeting?
Exactly.
Yeah.
You'd have to use a broom.
Yeah.
And that just wouldn't work very well.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
So there's a couple of things here that I want to hit on.
There's a great story
today
in
the Glenbeck Show prep.
You can get it and sign up for it, and you get it free every day delivered to you.
And it's all of the stories that we cover, and then I don't even know how many more that we don't get a chance to talk about.
But there's a couple of fun stories in there, like what happened to Dylan McMulvaney.
You know, he kind of just
disappeared.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And do you know that he doesn't live in the United States now?
Yeah.
Is it Venezuela?
Peru?
Somewhere?
No, it's Peru.
Yeah, okay.
Peru.
Yeah.
And he moved there because
he felt very, very safe there.
And he said, I had to leave my country to feel safe, which is really, honestly, that's sad.
If true, that's really sad.
But I wonder how safe he feels because last month, the Peruvian government officially classified transgender, non-binary, and intersex people as mentally ill.
Oh my.
Yeah.
Incredible.
Yeah.
So I'm wondering, you know, is he
still still safe?
He's still feeling safe.
Yeah.
Jeez.
Yeah.
That's amazing.
You know, this stuff that, you know,
maybe, maybe it happens on a small scale where, you know, trans men are
or trans women are beat up.
And I can imagine that it would happen.
You know, you, you pick up a woman in the bar and then, you know, you're, you're, you know, in a compromise and then you notice that she has a little friend downstairs and you're like,
there's a dangling Chad there or something.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
And, you know, I can understand, you know, that a little bit, being a little shocked.
But I just don't think we're those people.
And
all of this militancy on
LGBTQ plus plus I2, whatever it is,
I think it's made things worse.
You know, I was talking to a friend,
a black friend, Pat, because I have a black friend.
But we were talking about racism in 2007.
And he's about my age.
And he said, what I've always felt, he's like, you know,
we were a product of Martin Luther King.
We weren't a product of the 40s and the 30s and the 50s.
We grew up at a time where Martin Luther King was right.
And,
you know, he said, I felt we had made so much progress.
And I did too.
I really thought
that we were coming to a place where we were colorblind.
Up to Barack Obama.
Yes.
And then colorblindness wasn't good enough.
You now had to recognize color.
And Martin Luther King was wrong.
And it's just, it's all of that great work and progress we made, real progress,
was just
hacked at.
And now I don't.
You know, I don't, I know in
official groups, you know, political groups, you know, there's real tension and real people that really, you know, think the other side is bad, I guess.
But
I don't think the American people
are on that side.
You know what I mean?
I don't think that they're...
Maybe I'm wrong.
I just don't feel like people feel like...
Yeah, my neighbor who's a Democrat or my neighbor who's a Republican or, and maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't feel like they feel their enemies the people they know in in the regular
you know the the non-coastal areas of
America yeah
I mean with the left it it's you know you bring up Martin Luther King to they've almost disowned him and his beliefs at this point oh yeah it's like they don't subscribe to that at all anymore that that it's it's your character you should be judged by, not the color of your skin.
If you're colorblind, that to them is now racist.
So they've completely flipped it upside down.
I just, I keep coming back to this today, but I just think this is why America's really ready for a change.
And
you know, the odds, have you seen the
sports handle, the, you know, the betting place?
I did see that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I I believe these places so much more than polls because you don't have any stake in that.
You know, you don't have anything on the line.
But people will tell the truth when they're betting of what they really believe.
Right.
Now he's at a record high.
Donald Trump is at a record high of 58%
of winning the White House.
And it shows the odds of winning re-election for Joe Biden are at 39%.
That's not good.
For Biden.
Yeah, right.
He's up by 19.
19 points.
That's impressive.
So listen to this.
This is according to people who bet.
Donald Trump, 58, Joe Biden, 39.
Who's next?
Who's next, do you think?
I'm going to say RFK, RFK Jr.
Nope.
He's in fourth place.
Oh, is it Big Mike?
In fourth place?
It's Big Mike.
What are his odds?
Don't dead name him.
Don't do it.
Yeah.
Her odds are 4.5%.
Wow.
Wow.
RFK is 3.1%.
Yeah.
That tells you something.
Yeah.
Hillary Clinton is
pulling 1%.
Wow.
I read an article the other day that said,
you know,
everybody thinks it's going to be Big Mike.
Everybody thinks it's going to be Michelle Obama.
But the one they're going to pull the trigger on is Hillary.
And it'll happen, you know, right around convention time.
Oh, wow.
Because
he's getting too seriously ill.
I just.
I don't think you can get around
Harris.
No, you can't.
I mean, you've just
trapped yourself.
Yeah.
You've trapped yourself.
Because of the reasons he chose her, he can't go away from her now.
And he chose her because she's a black.
Exactly right.
Yeah.
Exactly right.
So now you have the opportunity to hand it to a black female.
You're going to give it to a white politician?
You can't.
No way.
No way.
All right.
Back in just a second.
Sadly, no matter how much we want it to not happen, there comes a day when first responders or military service members just don't come home.
Or maybe they do come home, but they're so severely injured that their lives and the lives of their families are never the same again.
This is where the Tunnel to Towers Foundation steps in.
They're there for these people, for catastrophically injured veterans and first responders.
They build mortgage-free smart homes, allowing those heroes to move around more independently and more financially securely.
Their Homeless Veteran Program, this is shameful that we have so many homeless veterans.
They helped 3,300 people just last year.
There are so many more out there
that really need help, but they need your help to do it.
Join the Tunnel to Towers Foundation on their mission to do good and never forget the sacrifice of this country's heroes.
More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to Tunnel to Towers goes directly to its programs.
Could you donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at t2t.org?
That's t the number 2t.org.
The following content identifies as a commercial.
Isn't that lovely?
The Glenn Beck program will be right back.
Don't forget our Blaze Originals team
has done a new documentary.
It's available now on Blaze TV, Voter Fraud Exposed, How Elections Can Be Stolen and What to Do About It on Blaze TV right now.
Glenn, before we end here,
we got to play this Wesley Hunt.
He's a black congressman from Texas talking about ID for blacks.
Watch this.
Sitting with me today is my global entry card.
My military ID card.
My Texas driver's license.
My Texas license to carry, because that's how we roll in Texas, my congressional card, and of course, the good old-fashioned American passport.
What sorcery is this?
What am I?
The black Houdidi?
How was I able to pull off the impossible and attain not one, not two, not three, but six government-issue IDs?
Impossible.
Personal responsibility in this country.
I fought for this country as an apostate helicopter pilot to protect free and fair elections.
And having having a government-issued ID isn't racist.
It's American.
You need to have an ID to drive a car to check into the airport.
Open a beck account.
You need an ID for basically everything to be a responsible adult in this country, except for voting, apparently, according to the left.
Black America does not need well-meaning liberals putting their arms around us and telling us.
how we should go to the polls.
In fact, if you look at recent headlines and polls, you will find that black men specifically in this country are more fired up than ever to participate in the next presidential election.
And I think I know why, and I'm really looking forward to these results.
For the record, in 2022, in the 2022 midterms in Georgia, it proved that election integrity and ballot accessibility can be achieved hand in hand.
That's great stuff.
I mean, 80% of blacks feel the same way.
Yeah,
it is one of the one subjects and policies policies that both sides agree on overwhelmingly.
It's over 70, 75%
for all, for everybody, except for politicians.
That's it.
They're the only ones that don't want to have, you know, voter ID and
credible elections.
All right.
We will see you tomorrow.
Tomorrow, also,
the brand new podcast that I've started on history comes out.
We'll tell you a little bit more about that.
But we'll see you here Friday.
The Glenn Beck Program.
