I pulled the fire alarm.

I thought it would open my mouth so I could speak.

I'm,

oh, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Can we?

Would you call somebody so we can stop the fire alarm?

It was just a simple mistake.

Okay, we can call out.

Oh, boy.

Well, this is no way to start the show.

We'll try to get that fixed.

First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

Robert wrote in about his experience with the Relief Factor.

He said, I have two reconstructed legs, six broken bones, and a fractured back.

Sorry, fractured neck.

I've had triple hernia surgery.

Relief Factor has taken my pain for years, and now my wife and I take a dose of it every day.

I feel cured of pain.

Are you kidding?

Two reconstructed legs, six six broken bones, fractured neck, triple hernia surgery.

Robert, there's no way you're alive.

I...

There's just no way.

Think of the miracle of modern medicine.

Not only are you out of pain, you're alive, dude.

Three-week quick start is $19.95.

It's a trial pack, not a drug.

Developed by doctors, more than a million people have bought Relief Factor, the quick start, and 70% of them go on to order more.

ReliefFactor.com.

Call 800, number 4, Relief.

800 the number four relief relief factor.com feel the difference

okay so uh i let me just oh geez oh i am sorry i

i was trying to open my desk drawer to get another pen and I didn't know how to open it and I just pulled the fire.

I thought that would open the desk drawer.

It's a false alarm.

You can

shut it off now.

Oh, boy.

Wow.

It's going to be one of those days.

They needed to label it better than they have labeled.

It says right here, pull in case of fire.

Oh, no,

my finger slipped.

I didn't mean.

It was a false alarm.

False alarm.

We can thank you.

Oh, my.

You know,

this happens more than you think.

You know, I feel pretty stupid right now because everybody's like, it's a fire alarm.

It's clearly marked.

When was the last time you pulled a fire alarm by mistake?

When's the last time you met somebody who pulled it by mistake?

And I'd say, never.

Okay.

I mean, yes, I knew somebody in grade school who pulled it intentionally.

But that's the only time I've ever seen anyone involved in pulling a firearm because they're clearly marked.

Now, that's what you might think.

However, there are a lot of people, a lot of, well, there's one person

who thought it would open a door.

This is what happened this weekend.

In the building he works in every day.

Well, but it's probably a door he's never been to.

Does he think the doors work differently in different parts of the building?

Like they just operate?

I don't know what you mean.

There's just a handle separate from the door.

Well,

no, he couldn't.

I mean, the door was marked.

Right.

Okay.

You know,

push the lever,

and the door will open and sound the alarm.

He said it will sound

push the lever

and alarm will sound for 15 seconds.

Door will open.

And that was clearly marked on the door, on the lever.

But he said he he needed to get out

because,

well, he had to get to a vote.

Now, a lot of people will say that Jamal Bowman was pulling the fire alarm to make sure everyone in the Capitol got out of the Capitol.

So

he would disrupt, what do they call it,

an official proceeding.

Hmm.

That sounds

like a familiar.

Because you're not supposed to disrupt official proceedings.

We've learned that quite a lot.

See, See, I'm sorry.

Gosh, Stu, I'm sorry.

I couldn't get this jar of pickles open.

I was just going to have a pickle while I was listening to you.

Yeah.

And I

couldn't get it open and I pulled the fire alarm.

I thought maybe that would.

It says twist to open right here on the

clearer about it.

And I, yeah, so it was another false alarm.

Thank you.

Oh, man.

Close call.

Happens all the time.

Yeah.

Doesn't it?

Now we have to delay the show.

We what?

We have to delay the show because you pulled the.

Oh, no.

I just pulled the fire alarm because you said it would delay the show.

We wouldn't.

Yeah, now we can't do the show while the fire alarm is actually sounding.

Sorry, gang.

I'm sorry.

Sorry, we all have to go away.

Good night, everybody.

Well, now it's off, so we can do the show again.

This is unbelievable.

The idea that we're supposed to this?

Well, AOC,

she believes it.

Now,

she was the one who had never seen a disposal before.

Right.

Remember, she did a little Instagram thing.

I think she was drunk.

And she flipped a switch.

She was like, I don't know what this switch does by my sink.

And she turns it on, and it's the disposal.

And she goes, oh, oh, oh, my gosh.

What is that?

I've never seen one of those.

I don't know what that disposal is.

I've never even heard of it.

Maybe if I do this, I can close it.

Will it close the disposal?

I'm just trying to close the disposal.

They really should have sent AOC to do this job because people legitimately would have believed that she pulled the fire alarm thinking the door would open.

Like, she's the only person I know that I would actually believe it.

I would totally buy it from her.

Yeah.

Now, let me, first of all, let me you

AOC.

Here she is.

I'll be honest, it doesn't really make sense to me, his explanation.

Have you talked to him?

What's going on?

I mean, listen, I think if you actually do see some of the photos of the signs, I think there's something to be said about the government's about to shut down.

There's a vote clock that's going down.

The exits that are normally open in that building were suddenly closed.

Suddenly.

Suddenly.

So,

what I'm here to say is that

to say is

U.S.

Capitol Police and Jamal Bowman are an active and he's fully participating in saying there was a misunderstanding.

But what I do think is...

Wait, hold on.

He's active and fully participating in saying that there was a misunderstanding?

What the hell?

That is not our language.

No, he was.

What language is that?

What combination of words?

That's American, okay?

You're in America now.

Speak American.

She is delightfully stupid.

I know people don't like her.

I understand that.

Right.

But I just find her just wonderful.

She's so dumb and so public about it.

Hang on.

What happened?

Hang on.

There was apparently one of our listeners was opening their mind.

They thought that's how?

They thought that's how they did it.

Apparently not.

So it's a false alarm.

I mean, she is.

It's not like this is the first time she's ever been on television.

If that were the case, you might say, oh, wow, she really is struggling in this moment.

This is...

I want to ask you.

I want to ask you.

Now, I've got a method to the madness here, just to go with me.

Sure.

What does

a fire alarm look like?

I mean, it's a little handle.

Usually it says fire.

Yeah.

Red and white.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Usually.

Where is it usually?

On the wall.

On the wall.

Okay.

Where did you learn about fire

fire alarms?

I don't know that I could trace that back.

It seems so blatantly obvious.

I can't point to a moment where I learned about it, but it was certainly when I was very young.

Very young.

Probably in school because you had what?

Fire drills.

Drills.

That's right.

Right.

And do you know anybody who accidentally

has pulled a fire drill?

Not until this weekend.

Not until this weekend.

Okay.

Now, I learned about them in school.

I'm sure.

I didn't see them anywhere else, I'm sure.

So I learned about it in school.

Guess what

Jamal Bowman did

before he was a member of Congress?

I mean, gee, what could it be?

Well, he was a principal of a

school.

Yeah.

So I'm sure he didn't have any run-ins with fire alarms.

No.

At the school.

And surely he wasn't

taught that people sometimes pull fire alarms to delay things.

Oh, he never gave that.

By his students.

He never gave that message.

Never gave that message.

Do not pull a fire alarm.

That's not a joke.

It's not a joke.

Not a joke.

It's an offense.

Not a joke.

Yeah.

Now, it's an offense for a couple of reasons this time.

Pulling a fire alarm is illegal if there is no fire.

It's like

yelling fire in a crowded theater.

Exactly right.

Similar to that.

Exactly right.

And there's another reason you don't do it in the Capitol, and that would be because that would be because you were trying to obstruct official proceedings.

So in other words, if January 6th, just one guy.

One guy would have walked in and pulled the fire alarm, he would have been given the 22 years

just because he was obstructing an official proceeding.

Now,

if that guy happened to be, and this is very common, if that guy happened to say,

I'm sorry, I was just trying to open the door.

I thought this would open the door.

He would have been gone.

I mean, they wouldn't have even questioned him.

Yeah, they would just let him go immediately.

Immediately.

He just made a mistake.

He thought it was the door handle that was labeled fire.

Sure.

That was not to the side of the door.

And it doesn't say door.

No, it says fire.

It says fire.

So the best I can do on this is he was trying to open the door and he thought those were fire doors.

Now, seeing that they were glass doors,

seeing that they were glass doors,

I have to grade him down on intelligence yet again.

Wait, you're trying to give him this benefit of the doubt.

Saying, okay, it's a fire door, so therefore pull the handle and fire.

Open up.

But that's the exact opposite of what a fire door would do.

Right.

It would be very idiotic.

Closed.

You'd want it to be closed as a fire.

Yeah.

Yes.

Why, Stu?

Because you wouldn't want the fire to come through.

Well, yes.

But if it's to the outside, it would also

feed a fire because,

you know, you don't want more oxygen coming in.

There you go.

So I can't make this work.

I can't make this work.

And it's impossible.

It's impossible for anyone to believe this.

And like, it's one of those things that let's just take him at his word, right?

For a second.

Let's just entertain this for a second.

He walked in, he saw fire, he pulled it thinking it was going to open the door.

He should be immediately removed from Congress.

Like,

you're obviously too stupid to be in Congress.

So either I committed a crime or you should be out of Congress because you're too.

I agree with this.

You

look, if he is this stupid,

we don't have to impeach him.

We don't have to do anything.

He won't find his way to work sometime this week.

Right.

Okay.

He won't find his pants or his underpants sometime this week.

And he'll just walk out in his wingtip shoes and his tie and his shirt and

everything swinging in the breeze.

And he's like, what are you talking about?

Oh, my pants.

I didn't know I was.

How do I put my pants on?

Just

have to get that.

Oh, yeah, that's how you do it.

And if you put your...

Would that help put my pants on?

Hello.

I need to put my pants on.

Somebody with pants, come quick.

Oh, my God.

False alarm.

I don't need pants.

I don't need anything.

Oh, you do need pants, but you're already wearing them.

Yes.

Until we get to a point where the companies that you and I do business with finally get the message and stop supporting leftist causes, our only alternative is to build a parallel economy.

And we've been doing that successfully now for years, partnering with companies like Patriot Mobile, who stand on our side of the moral divide.

Patriot Mobile, they first of all, offer dependable nationwide coverage.

You can access any of the three major networks that everyone is on, but you don't have to worry about that part of

your bill that's going to go fund all the leftist causes.

You'll not only get great service with Patriot Mobile at a great price, but you'll also be sending a message to the rest of the companies in the country that you believe and support free speech, religious freedom, sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, our military veterans,

our first responders, all of the things that we believe in that are covered in our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

We've got got to support those people who are supporting us.

This is a really no-brainer and an easy way for you to stand.

Well,

they're going to throw the book at him.

I can feel that coming.

They're going to absolutely throw the book at him.

It's true.

It's true.

And I assume he'll face all the same penalties as the January 1st.

Of course, he will.

By the way, speaking of that, a contractor for the

Internal Revenue Service, the IRS,

has escaped significant charges on Friday.

He was the guy who leaked thousands of prominent tax records, including those of President Donald Trump.

It was leaked right before the 2020 presidential election, and the IRS is getting serious with him.

Thousands, thousands of tax records were released, and

he's been charged with one single crime.

So

one

count of unauthorized disclosure.

We talked about this before it occurred, which was at some point, someone will leak these things because they want them to be leaked, and then they will get the lightest slap on the wrist humanly possible.

And then what happens?

Nothing.

Hmm.

Nothing.

Nothing happens.

No, but I mean, somebody pays.

This guy, quote unquote, pays with a very minor misdemeanor to get the thing the Democrats Democrats all wanted done.

So you get a

little, you know, a nobody, a peasant, to go out and pay this tiny little price for the thing that they wanted.

And then the New York Times and all these places report on it as if it's totally fine.

Now, they wouldn't report on the Hunter Biden thing because they said it was stolen material.

Remember this?

Even though it wasn't stolen material, There was no crime committed in releasing it.

They wouldn't report on that.

But here, when there is a crime, they're totally fine doing it because it's what they want done.

When it's what they want done, none of these rules mean anything.

When it's something they don't want done, all those rules apply.

Guaranteed, the guy pulling the fire alarm today is not going to face much of a punishment, if any, at all.

He won't pay a price.

I don't think he will.

Even under Bidenomics, that price won't go up.

Well,

you never put it past Bidenomics to give you a curveball, but I don't think so.

Huh.

And they're very upset about Bidenomics.

Oh, the Dems are begging Joe Biden to stop it.

Stop saying it.

Stop it.

Stop saying Bidenomics.

Stop taking responsibility for this.

Stop.

Stop it.

Stop anything.

We pulled the fire alarm just to stop him from talking about Bidenomics.

Oh, my God.

I mean, we said this at the very beginning when Bidenomics was rolling.

We were so happy.

This is thrilling.

The thrilling.

You're giving the election away away by taking responsibility for it.

And you know what?

What's really great is

we know the Republicans wouldn't have done a damn thing about it.

They wouldn't have said anything about it or anything.

They themselves came up with Bidenomics.

We didn't have to do anything.

We're not accusing them of Bidenomics.

They're flouting it.

Yeah, we're engaged in Bidenomics.

Yeah, it doesn't work.

Does it?

I just want to

say, polls show now 75% of U.S.

adults think the economy is in fair or poor state.

Can I tell you something?

If you think this is a fair economy, you have no idea about the underlying current that is just below the surface.

And our friends who aren't paying attention, you know the ones.

Yeah.

That one who's constantly saying, what is the problem?

Is going to be the one that comes to you and says, when did this all happen?

Oh, I don't know.

While you weren't paying attention and voting for Joe Biden, that's what had happened.

When you didn't pay attention to the budget under Trump,

you didn't pay attention to the budget.

Remember that weekend where they're going to shut everything down?

Well, yeah, but we did want to avoid a government shutdown.

That would have been bad.

Really?

Really?

that would have been bad it would have been bad huh but printing all this money

remember printing money leads to inflation no it's the farmers they're just gouging us

that's not what it is

that is what they say i mean they really have nothing on this.

And it's just, this is why they so desperately want Donald Trump to be the nominee.

They only, like, they just, this is their only thing.

All they can do is hope people don't like tweets.

Like, that's their whole argument here.

Yes,

terrible job, but you don't like that guy from the reality show, right?

You don't want him to be president.

If America believes

that that guy pulled the fire alarm to open the door, it's because they think they could have made that same mistake.

Okay.

That tells you, I mean, maybe they they do get away with all of this because maybe we are that stupid.

We've said for years, because I think we're that stupid, I think we might be that stupid.

The Glenn Beck Program.

So, I don't know if you've seen the price of meat lately.

Wait, it's going to get even more expensive.

All-American meat, meat, seafood,

pork, chicken, steak.

You can save money while you're consuming it and also help others in need all at the same time.

We pack this all into one claim because of Good Ranchers, and it's true.

When you subscribe to any of their monthly meat boxes, you're getting two years of free ground beef.

That's 144 meals you don't have to pay for.

And the extra values, since Good Ranchers spends their own money to provide 10 meals per box that you order for Americans in need, that means you give out 240 meals over the course of your subscription.

And here's the best part:

you also won't have your price go up on you for two years.

Try that at your supermarket or butcher.

Lock in the price right now with goodranchers, goodranchers.com.

He told me to do it.

Okay, that seems

I mean this seems a little ominous.

I don't

What's ticking?

Something ticking, Stu?

Why are you leaving?

I'm going out to pull the fire alarm.

Oh, because of the ticking?

Yes.

Should I...

It's coming from your backpack.

You want to take that with you when you go?

Wow.

There is a great story about the climate of fear in the epic times.

And

it is all about

what we're all experiencing right now.

And it's not just that people are pushing it.

You know something isn't wrong.

But we have a sense of fear now in the country that is very, very unhealthy.

As the Epic says, Epic Times says,

what's more likely to occur,

the more fragmented a society becomes, it will bring out the worst.

Fear among different groups of people creates an us versus them context in the minds of individuals or even an everyman for himself attitude, which pits one group against another or even each of us against each other.

Now elevate that to a sense of fear to the level of a national electorate.

The people or a nation that is paralyzed with fear makes rash decisions based on their fears of what could happen.

See,

this is one of the things that

would happen this weekend.

They want you to do something,

and that is give them money for Ukraine, continue to give them money for the perversion of our country.

And so they said,

you should fear this.

They're going to cut our money off.

No,

they're asking to return to 2019 levels of spending.

That's the crazy level of spending we had under Donald Trump, and that was crazy amounts of money until COVID.

Now they're saying all of the increase in spending since COVID has got to stop.

But that's dangerous.

We have got to find a way to come back together.

They have

divided and they're about to conquer.

It works every time.

It works.

Unless people

rise above it.

And there is a chance because people are starting to see the truth in so many different ways.

People are starting to understand, wait a minute, what is being done to my kids in school is not a conspiracy.

It's actually happening.

What's happening online?

What's happening with the gender mutilation?

These are true.

People are starting to wake up because of the price increases.

They're starting to be uncomfortable.

Some people are very uncomfortable.

But I'm sorry to say it's going to take the middle class to the upper middle class to be uncomfortable until people start to say enough is enough, apparently.

And once we get to that point, it will be too late to ask people to think rationally because they'll be hungry

and they'll be frightened

and someone will come along to keep us safe.

They're doing it in everything.

And I have to tell you,

I met somebody the other day, and this has stuck with me now since I met with them maybe

three weeks ago.

They said,

my mom listens to you.

They listen to me too.

I listen to you, but I got hooked on you because of my mom.

And my mom listens to you, and she calls me all the time.

Did you hear what Glenn Beck said?

We've got to fill in the blank.

She's always like, mom, mom.

That has really bothered me, really bothered me.

Because there's a, there is,

there are things we have to do.

But it's,

you can't do anything out of fear, and you can't do anything rash.

And I don't want you to think that you should.

Glenn said, you know, houses

are, you know, going to be valuable.

That's a hard asset.

Yeah, but not if you have to move.

Not if you have to sell your house.

Not if.

No.

Don't, don't, please.

I'm telling you the things that I believe.

What is it that you believe?

You have to do your own homework.

I am no prophet.

All I can do is just see connections between things.

And then

I think it's because I'm an uneducated boob,

I can see what's coming

and I don't dismiss it

because,

for instance, we talked about this, I think, last week.

Dogs have a gift of fear.

Okay, and I know this to be true.

When I first got my dog, Uno,

the dog trainer said, trust your dog.

And I said, okay.

And he's like, I mean it.

Trust him.

And he said, you know,

I just sold

one of these dogs to a professional golfer.

And he said, At the airport, he was getting on his private plane, and the dog saw the pilot and started growling.

Didn't like him.

Every time, for a year, every time he got on that plane, he had a problem with the pilot.

Got to the point where he was sitting in between him and the pilot always.

He said the pilot had called several times and said, This is unworkable.

I can't, I mean, he's my best friend.

The pilot.

The pilot was also

sleeping with the other guy's wife.

When we were all in Philadelphia, Uno used to sit between me and a guy.

If he would come into my office, he would stand between me.

And then he had an office down the hall from mine.

He would actually lay in front of that door.

If I were in front of my door,

and he did not like that guy.

And I remember saying, do you remember this, Sarah?

And I remember saying,

Uno does not like him, and I was supposed to trust my dog.

We found out later that the guy had embezzled.

I don't know what it is.

Here's what they say it is.

We have the same gift of fear,

but we dismiss it.

We

think logically.

Well, no, there's no way they're going to X, Y, or Z.

There's no way...

If you read Mein Kampf, there's no doubt what he's going to do to the Jews.

There's none.

Zero.

It's all spelled out.

And that book

was everywhere.

We just found a copy for the museum.

This is insane.

We just found a German copy.

It was the wedding edition.

So if you wanted to give somebody a wedding present, you gave them Mein Kampf?

That's how crazy Germany had become.

But that's also how popular that had become.

And it was clearly spelled out what he was going to do.

But everybody who read it

thought,

well, that's not what he means.

Yeah, that is.

And that's the biggest problem

with humans.

It's the greatest gift and the greatest problem.

We have reason.

Dogs only act on what they feel.

You feel it

and you dismiss it.

And you have good reasons sometimes to dismiss it.

I believe this is why I can connect these things and see what's coming.

Because I'm not trained with the economy.

I'm I'm not trained by, I didn't go through a college to receive my paper saying, yes, now you think like us.

And you have to be this way.

Don't dismiss the things that bother you.

Look into them.

But don't panic.

Don't be a part of fear.

I know this is really hard, but one of the reasons why it's so hard is because

we don't have faith anymore.

Without faith, what do you have?

With faith comes hope.

And a lot of people think that, oh, well, so we're relying on God.

Well, that's great hope that is.

Well, yeah, that is a great hope.

It's the only reason, honestly, it is the only reason I still do this job.

It's the only reason I'm alive today.

Only reason if I were alive, you know, and

without faith, I'd be drunk.

My faith lets me know, and I know this sounds crazy,

but until you live it, you have no idea the power of it.

When you can come to the place to where you see

your winnings and your losses exactly the same way, both as impostors.

When you can see the troubles that you've been given as blessings in disguise

and the blessings that you may have been given with some booby traps around it,

when you can do that,

You just keep moving.

You don't stop to celebrate or to whine.

You're like, yeah, I know, it's really great, right?

Okay, let's get back to work.

I know, that sucked, but we're going to learn something from this.

There's something coming out of this

that keeps you from fear.

This is so important.

I'm probably doing one of the most risky things I've ever done.

We have a special show coming coming up on Thursday, and it is going to kick off something to the holidays.

You have heard me say that we are a covenant people, and we are.

The Jewish people were covenant.

They made a covenant with God, and they broke the covenant, and they were destroyed.

And we have had covenants made.

We've had a made by the pilgrims.

Then we had George Washington make one, and Abraham Lincoln made the last one.

We're a covenant people, and we have broken our covenant.

And a covenant is about keeping promises.

That's it.

Keeping our promises

is pretty big on the value scale in culture.

Not anymore, but it is so important.

High value.

We owe that to each other.

We owe that to our country.

We owe that to our God.

Thursday on this program is a launch party for a very important project that cannot cannot happen without you.

There is no saving America without all of us playing our role, and we have to be rock solid.

We have to have hope, get ourselves cleaned up, and we have to get back to God.

Thursday, God keeps his promises.

Will we?

Don't miss it on this radio program on Thursday.

Five consecutive quarters now, credit card balances have done nothing but go up overall.

They're increasing at some of the largest rates in 20 years.

This year has been brutal for almost every American who is struggling with inflation, raising rates, scarcity, just generally how expensive everything is now.

And if you're one of them, let me give you a possible path out.

Give American Financing a call today.

They're helping people just like you get out from underneath that debt, credit card debt, that's such a burden, and start to realize significant savings that they can then apply and use it to pay down the debt.

Imagine saving $700 a month.

It'd go a long way, wouldn't it?

Well, that's what they're helping the average customer to save through things like mortgage refi, like credit card debt.

Your mortgage interest is tax deductible.

Your credit card debt is not.

That stretches the savings out even further.

Take about 10 minutes, get them on the phone, no obligation, no pressure.

You might be able to delay up to two mortgage payments.

So call American Financing at American Financing.net, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

We talk a lot about the Second Amendment, and part of

the Second Amendment as a right is also a responsibility to make sure you take shooting seriously, make sure you're in good practice.

And being in practice means, of course, unfortunately, spending a lot of money on ammunition and range fees and all that.

Until iTarget came along, of course, that is.

If you've ever seen competitive shooters practice their timing drills on the range,

imagine being able to do that at your house without without putting holes in the wall.

It's not like that.

These are laser bullets.

That's what they call them.

And they're bullets that go in your real gun, but you can practice.

And they now have these eye target cubes, which are like targets.

You can put wherever you want in the house.

They're really cool.

You can do all sorts of random shooting drills, clearing drills.

You can use random mode to test your ability to react.

And it's all while the system is going to take and measure every single shot that you make.

You can practice alone.

You can compete with friends.

And because the system works with your home's Wi-Fi, you can place cubes anywhere in your home and practice self-defense scenarios safely without all the expense.

If you want all the benefits of staying in practice and none of the drawbacks, iTarget is for you.

You're going to love this.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

We're glad you're here.

By the way, speaking of the covenant, I am going to be giving a speech in Sandy, Utah, the Mountain American Exposition Center, on October 19th at 6.30, 9 p.m.

Mountain Time.

And it's going to be on the Covenant and the Constitution and Bill of Rights and who we are, where we came from, and what we need to do next.

Bring your kids their $10 tickets.

You can bring your whole family with you.

I mean, you know, little kids will probably be bored out of their mind.

Yeah, I think that's a pretty strong bet.

But make sure you bring your family

to come.

Stu

have you seen the

new theater been built in Las Vegas yet?

Yes, the sphere?

Yes.

Incredible.

Incredible.

Did you see any of the footage from you two this weekend playing there?

No.

I saw pictures.

Legitimately unbelievable to look at.

I have to tell you, I remember I went to ABBA in London, and it is their holograms.

Okay.

Oh, yeah.

And so it's like you're

actually watching.

I had a friend who was about 30 feet from the stage and he said, Glenn, he just just got back.

I've never seen anything like it.

You could not tell that they weren't real.

Really?

It is so crazy.

I saw the thing in Vegas, and it's you too, and I thought we should go.

Yes, I'm in.

You're buying.

Let's go.

Wait a minute.

Fire it up.

How did that happen?

Pull the fire alarm.

We're on our way.

No.

Yes.

No, we're going to see you too.

That does not open my wallet.

That does not open the wallet.

Who protects the troops who protect us?

Imagine you're serving, you know, half a world away when you learn that the title to your home, that legal document that proves it's yours, has been forged and it's not even in your name anymore.

We can't let that happen.

Home title theft is a clear and present danger for all homeowners.

And that's why I trust Home Title Lock.

And now Home Title Lock is protecting those who protect us and giving back.

For every subscription you purchase from Home Title Lock, they will donate one year of free service to a military family in your name.

Very cool program they've got going on.

Our troops certainly deserve the peace of mind that comes with knowing that while they protect us, Home Title Locked is protecting their most valuable assets.

And when, you know, look, we all need to protect the title to our homes because this problem is not going away on its own.

Let's make sure we do this together.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Stu, please do not play with the fire alarm, okay?

Tired of it.

We've had so many...

This happens all the time.

People try to get out the door and they're like, it's locked.

It's locked.

And then they pull the fire alarm and

it's not the way.

Hey,

you know, GOP, hmm,

not sure exactly how I feel about you,

but it's somewhere between complete and utter disgust

and indifference.

So I don't know how well you're going to do.

Let's see what you're going to pull off now.

And Kevin McCarthy, I know exactly how I feel about you.

We'll go there in 60 seconds.

All right.

So

I'm wondering if I should share something with you that I found very, very

true.

11 Assumptions About the Future.

And it's from Doug Casey.

And

I mean, I don't want to bum you out.

It's on a Monday.

But I think I included it in today's show prep at glennbeck.com because I think it's really important, because I think it is true.

And this, the reason why I say these things, because there's a lot of people who listen to this program and you're like, I know, I know, it's coming, right?

I know.

Yeah.

If you ever hear me say, I'm going to the mountain and I probably won't be back, well, then you know.

But it's coming.

And here's what's coming.

Change.

That's it.

Change.

Everything in life changes.

We're under constant change.

The America that was 100 years ago has changed so many times.

The people, I think if we had a time machine, people from a hundred years ago would come here and they would say,

I don't want to live there.

And we would go back to their time and say, oh,

I really don't want to live back here.

We're all born for a specific time and now is our time.

And change is coming.

Now, this is,

I would classify it as catastrophic change, not because it's all bad.

It could be really, really great.

We're not headed towards the great basket right now.

We're headed towards the other basket, catastrophic

basket.

And that's a choice that we all have to make.

But the biggest problem with this is

the politicos have done such a good job in dividing all of us.

And I would put myself in this category too.

I've had my share of dividing people and it has been

you?

You've

you, you think you're divisive in some way?

I've never heard such a claim.

Well, not intentionally, but in today's world, just telling the truth or, you know,

that's plenty.

Just telling the truth is enough.

And we have to get past that because

when I'm looking at these things,

I think if people could just wake up, we could fix this.

Now, Doug Casey has Doug Casey's

take on podcasts, but I want you to listen to what he says is coming.

Here are the 11 assumptions that I'm using today to guide my actions.

One, less freedom of movement is coming.

There would be more effort so to restrict and regulate our freedom of movement from vax passports to increased visa requirements and 15-minute city initiatives, the grid is being constructed to regulate our freedom of movement.

That is absolutely true.

And if you read Dark Future, you'll know it to be true because we outline it.

These are not conspiracy theories.

These are facts that are also conspiracies.

Conspiracy just means there are people plotting and trying to cover their tracks and trying to deny to throw people off their trail.

Well, they're not even denying.

They're just using the media to say conspiracy theory.

And then they do it anyway.

For instance, the gas stoves.

Do you know that every single appliance, and you can read about it in today's show prep at Glenbeck.com.

Get my show prep because I can only get to about maybe, I don't even know, 10% of the stories.

Get my show prep every day.

It is so critical that you read that.

It's free at Glennbeck.com.

But these are things that every time they say it's a conspiracy, they throw you off the trail.

They divide us even further.

And then what happens?

They just do it because it's too late.

Second, CBDC is coming.

Cash will be eliminated.

How restrictive it may end up being, I don't know.

But CBDC is a foregone conclusion.

Timing,

some say by 2030.

There are indications that major economies are working to be ready to deploy by 2025.

The digital ID is already here is number three.

Biometrics are the future.

If you have a government-issued ID associated with your photograph, you are in the system already.

How the ID is developed and deployed and enforced is the question.

Number four, the Greater Depression.

Timing is hard, but can any thinking person imagine how the outcome can be avoided altogether?

Simon Hunt suggests a market pullback of up to 30% between now and early 2024.

Okay,

this I've heard from several people, 30%.

Pullback.

That's the stock market falling 30%.

And everyone I've talked to, and I don't know about stock markets and I I hate the stock market, but anyway,

everybody I've talked to said that about 30%, if not more, is coming and we might already be in it.

It will be followed by a pump and deflationary wipeout in 2025.

Most financial assets, number five, will disappear at some point.

Inflation, bank bail-in, market wipeout.

I don't know the cause,

but I assume physical assets are where I need to be ultimately.

This is important for you to understand

that

land, your home,

anything physical, any gold, silver, food, seeds, anything physical

is important.

Anything that is money, it will, you can bury it all you want.

It will slip through your fingers because that's all going to be taken.

Debt is going to be a real problem when the banks start to collapse.

They'll just start seizing assets.

Six, increasing crime and disorder.

You've seen the videos, whether driven by economic desperation, mass migration, the inversion of law, or in the name of social justice, crime and disorder will grow and lead to greater physical threats to our lives and property from our fellow man.

This makes urban environments especially but not exclusively a real risk.

Absolutely true.

How many times do I tell you a week, Stu?

You really don't want to be near the city.

You really don't want to be near.

You do mention it to me a lot.

A lot.

You don't want to be near the cities.

Number seven, supply constraints are increasing around all commodities, from food to energy.

Did you see the story in the show prep today, Stu, about what he's done with what Biden has just done with

oil and gas?

He's passed the toughest

standards on

drilling and finding natural gas in the history of America.

He is shutting it down.

From food to energy, tight supplies are showing up everywhere.

Live cattle, long dormant, hit an all-time high recently.

Oil prices are up 30% in the last three months.

40% of Argentina's wheat crop is in poor to fair condition, and protectionist policies are on the rise globally.

8.

World War III is coming.

A good case can be made that it's already begun.

I don't know if you saw this.

This is also in the show prep today.

The Army War College recently published a study suggesting that the all-volunteer force had reached the end of its useful life.

With the military struggling with recruiting,

conscription is likely at some point.

I don't know if you saw this, also in the show prep.

Russia is holding for the first time ever.

Let me see if I can find this.

Russia is set to hold a nationwide exercise early next month, according to new reports, in preparation for the danger of armed conflicts involving nuclear weapons.

Russian authorities will hold a large-scale drill across the country on October 3rd.

Is that tomorrow or is that today?

That's tomorrow.

Because of the growing danger of armed conflicts, including with nuclear-capable powers near Russia's borders.

The drill is the first time that Moscow has held such a drill,

which will imagine that Russia is at least partially under martial law and that up to 70% of the country's housing facilities have been destroyed.

That's what they're preparing for.

Now, we're saying, well, I don't, what are we, are we,

yeah, we should go to war because my party says we should go to war.

Have you noticed, by the way, that that is something that the parties are saying, but the American people are not.

If you look at the latest poll numbers, it is showing that the American people are not in step with the parties.

It's the parties that are pushing for war.

The average American is saying, I don't want to go to war.

I have no desire to go to war.

I don't think we should even be there.

I mean, the parties are not outwardly saying that, but their actions are.

taking us down that road.

Definitely.

And the American people are now getting to the point where they are opposing even the funding of the war effort in Ukraine.

Republicans are already there.

Independents are getting closer.

Democrats still at a very low level of opposition to it, but rising.

And look at this.

Conscription is likely at some point.

That means if they missed your child in school, they'll indoctrinate them in the military.

I mean, the military, even with everything that's coming up, the military is still saying, no, abortion and

DEI, much more important than, you know, that's going to kill us.

I'll tell you that.

This stopping those programs.

That's the type of thing, though, an election can solve, right?

Yes.

Oh, yeah.

Having a Republican president that made some sense could put an end to that quickly.

A change in our policies.

Less freedom of movement, number one, goes away.

CBDC,

you already have DeSantis saying day one, no

CBDC.

The digital ID, that can be stopped with an election.

The Greater Depression,

maybe not if we don't turn this around quickly.

Financial assets will disappear at some point.

Maybe, maybe not.

Increasing crime and disorder, that can be changed.

Supply constraints increasing around all commodities, oil, that can change.

Food, that can change.

World War III is coming, that can change.

Censorship and digital control will enter a new phase.

Deplatforming, de-banking, shadow banning, and social media account suspensions will increase.

Centralized digital services of all kinds should be considered suspect and very likely dangerous to use in the future.

Wow.

By the way,

I can't see saying this, but in today's newsletter, there's a story story about Canada.

Trudeau is now pushing to regulate all podcasts.

They have tight regulation for all broadcast.

There are things that you just can and cannot do in Canada.

You notice they don't have talk radio in Canada.

Not like this.

It's not popular.

Anytime they try it, because you have to balance it.

So it's all milquetoast

awful.

And it's tightly regulated to the point to where the the blaze, which is here in America, our sister, I mean, we're not actually sisters, but our sister news outlet up there is rebel news.

And they have had trouble with the government over and over and over and over again, and they won't shut up.

And they're not radical.

They just believe in freedom of speech.

Number 10, the U.S.

election, regardless of the outcome, is an inflection point and potentially a flash point.

I want to take a quick one-minute break and come back to that one

because I want you to noodle this out with me and see if you arrive at a different conclusion.

First, pre-born.

More often than not, women regret it

deeply when they have an abortion.

They often say they would have preferred to give birth if they just had received more support from others or had financial security.

Recent study found that number is in the 60% range.

This is why pre-born is so important.

They step in during the darkest hour.

They offer these moms who are making that difficult choice between hope and support.

Pre-born uses free ultrasound, paid for by you,

to introduce a woman to the beautiful life growing inside of her.

That doubles the chances she's going to choose life for that baby, and they continue to help support her and the baby for two years, both financially and emotionally.

And it's all because of the love and generosity of people just like you.

Your donation of $28 will help a woman make the choice that she won't have to regret for the rest of her life.

It'll give her the ultimate blessing, life.

Your love can save lives.

10 seconds, station ID.

So number 10 on this list is the U.S.

election, regardless of the outcome, is an inflection point and potentially a flash point.

If, the writer writes, if that happens, the outcome will not be accepted by half of the country.

We can be sure that running up to and shortly after the election, things could get wild.

In advance of the 2020 election, we had COVID in BLM shortly after January 6th and state overreach.

What will 2024 bring?

I think this is something that we need to begin to talk about because I think everybody knows it.

We just don't talk about it.

I think everybody fears that

if Donald Trump or whoever is the GOP candidate wins,

the left will scream that it was stolen and they'll be in the streets for every cut and everything that happens.

Is there any doubt about that?

None.

I mean, the last two elections have been this scenario where half the country says it's a fake.

It's fake, fake.

Yeah.

Last two.

Yeah.

And there's, I don't see there's any possibility of this one unless you had some Reagan-esque landslide.

Maybe, maybe

if Donald Trump doesn't win,

does anyone believe that there aren't a lot of people that and I would seriously question the election, even I don't care who wins.

I haven't seen anyone do anything of significance in the states that are the swing states.

All of the states that Donald Trump lost last time because they stopped, oh, stopped counting.

Okay,

I don't know what that was.

I haven't seen anybody actually really look into it with any credibility.

So I don't feel confident.

Now, those states, they have either enhanced those laws or strengthened those laws to give us the same kind of election we had last time.

You can make that argument with some of those states.

I think some states have improved.

I think, like, for example, Georgia's improved their laws.

There's been some that have done it.

But again,

here's the thing, Glenn.

I don't think anyone actually is going to be looking at, well, let me bring the evidence to me.

Place it out in front of me.

Let's have a real discussion about what happened.

People just feel.

They feel it.

And it doesn't matter if it's honestly true or not.

The problem with the system is that everyone feels like

we're in this state of constant chaos and nothing's real.

Correct.

And I guarantee you, if Donald Trump wins the election, the other side side is going to claim fraud.

And if Joe Biden wins, then

the Republican side's going to claim fraud.

It's just going to happen.

It's just part of our landscape right now.

And then final point from Doug Casey is 11.

There is a war happening today.

It's a war on us.

For most of this cycle, they will rely on the same approach.

If and when we see a move toward a kinetic force, we should be alarmed because we've entered a new phase and a more dangerous phase.

It's out of your control, but your life is not.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Boy, something that I have been really wrestling with the last couple of weeks

and it just

is not getting any better and I'm asked on social media and or at least I'm told I don't actually use social media

at least all that often.

Instagram, yes, occasionally.

But anyway,

I'm asked on social media.

I'm asked wherever I go

and I don't have an answer.

And I have a way that I'm leaning, but I

I wrestle with it every single day.

And we're talking about

the scandal that most people don't even know about with Tim Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad.

This is getting play in

lots of lefty magazines.

Vice has written several articles.

I can't vouch for their credibility one way or another.

And I have talked to

Tim Ballard personally

a lot

about this.

But I didn't know the other side.

Last week, I got a call from some of the accusers.

And what they're accusing him of is

really not, not just

just really bad stuff really

really bad things

um

and

at first because i've been friends with tim for so long i thought that's ridiculous it's ridiculous blew by them ridiculous

until they persisted and and i started hearing more i just heard somebody had filed in the in at our

hr complaints or something like that's not possible

Well,

the more the complaints come out, the worse it gets, but the harder I would have a hard time believing even that.

These women called last week and they wanted to do a show with me.

That's not something I've even offered Tim.

And I don't want to be the one making the calls on this.

I'm not a journalist, and I'm also involved.

Tim has been a friend of mine.

OUR is

a great organization, but I also stand up for victims.

And I don't feel remaining silent on this or neutral if

I know

is acceptable.

I don't know what they've done, but I

passed the women's number on to Leon Wolf, our news director.

And I think he's senior editor or whatever he is.

I don't know.

He's the big guy, the big cheese.

And

I passed it on to him and said,

put a journalist on this if you want.

And I told him at the time,

Take it where it leads.

I have no dogs in this fight.

And he wouldn't do that anyway.

I just wanted to make it really clear.

I have no dogs in this fight.

I have nothing to do with the Blaze anymore.

I'm not, I'm just, I'm just hired help around here now.

And I said,

if it leads to anything and you're like, I don't know how Glenn's going to feel, don't worry about it.

I just want the truth.

I just want the truth.

So he put our best investigative reporter on it.

And

I heard last night that they are close to finishing the story.

I was hoping that it was going to be released today because this is

if

it's true,

I can't believe how many of us were duped.

But that's if it's true.

And I don't know how I'm going to judge that.

but they have apparently some additional items.

I know that last I heard, we have been

begging Tim to be a part of the story.

We have called him,

his press agent, his PR person on this several times last week.

We delayed a couple of

time

restrictions, and I think it was supposed to to be in by last Thursday or something, and they delayed, hoping that he would call.

I gave them another number that my wife had

and said, try this number.

And I think they're giving him

additional time to respond because I don't want to print something without his responses.

I think that's unfair.

I don't want to be unfair to the women.

I don't want to be unfair to Tim.

I want to tell the truth.

And there are people that say we wouldn't do this for any other person.

We wouldn't run, we wouldn't do a two-week investigation.

Well,

you'll be hearing about some things that are coming at Blaze soon.

So, yes, we may not have done it necessarily in the past, but it is going to be part of our future.

But this one is important to me because of you.

It is important.

I've always said to you, I'll lead with my mistakes.

I will tell you that we have seen, as Mercury 1, has asked for

audits and we have received the results from the audits.

We didn't do it here this time because we've done it so many other times in the past, just recently, I think,

that we know that the money

was spent the way it was supposed to be spent.

So I don't think I made a mistake at all by telling you to support them.

But with that endorsement came the endorsement of Tim Ballard.

And I want to know, because I'm a friend,

if I should be

give him the tough love of the only way out is redemption, stop all of this

and beg for forgiveness and do the right thing, or if I should be defending him,

or if I should be defending the women.

It's important to me.

So

we're going to have a comment.

It may be as early as tomorrow.

I don't know yet.

But we're not releasing a story, and I'm not involved in the story at all.

We're going to be releasing it as soon as our editor says it's fit to print.

Hopefully, that can be the last word on this.

We'll see.

According to a recent article in the Washington Examiner, new home sales fell last month amidst the disastrous effects of bidenomics catching up with the housing market.

Because the Fed has continued to raise rates since March of last year, homeowners who got locked into a low rate during the pandemic are holding back on selling their homes.

Nobody wants to sell because I'm going to, what, sell low and then I have to buy and have a huge interest rate.

Bad news is that's true.

Good news makes homes that are already on the market a hot commodity.

Why is that good news?

Because this is where a really great real estate agent gets the chance to shine if you are selling your house.

In case you didn't happen to be aware, the things you do with your money actually matter.

You can often affect change in the country as much as with your wallet, as much as you can with your vote.

We've seen that multiple times recently in this country.

One way of doing this is by buying things that are made in America, and I mean really made in America, because everybody loves to say that they have stuff made in America.

But surprise, surprise, they're not always telling the truth.

And it's hard to know who you can trust when it comes to this stuff.

I can tell you at least one place you can definitely trust, and that is the good folks over at American Giant.

When you buy clothing from American Giant, you know that you're getting true American quality, a product with merit made by people in this country for a fair wage.

Every stitch of thread, every metal rivet, every drop of ink is made and assembled here.

They care about this.

You're not just buying clothing.

You're investing in the process that will help save our country.

We need to get back to the independent spirit of American manufacturing.

And American Giant is doing their part.

The cotton, the milling, the cutting, the sewing, it's 100% American.

You can buy cheaper and you'll get cheaper quality made by workers overseas who aren't paid a living wage, or you can buy quality that will last for generations.

I got an American Giant hoodie.

It is awesome.

I will be wearing it 20 years from today because it's just so comfortable and will last forever.

You can tell by the quality.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Brook.

We're glad, we're so glad that you're here today.

By the way, within just hours of the midnight deadline,

the Senate did pass a temporary measure to avoid a government shutdown.

Now,

they'll say, well, no, no, no, wait a minute, wait a minute.

We didn't just pass the CR.

We gave it 45 days.

So we're going to pass

all these bills in between.

Oh, good.

So

we're putting that budget together right now in the next 45 days.

Do you know when the 45 days are up?

In 44 or 43 days from now.

Mid-November.

Yeah, the weekend before Thanksgiving.

Oh.

So good.

It wasn't our country being ripped apart.

You'd have to admire it.

This is a comedy.

Yeah.

This is a comedy.

It's like Faulty Towers, except

a country-level operation run by the bed and breakfast of Faulty Towers.

So

what do you give to the Republicans?

Anything?

Anything?

Well, I mean, the issue now is, right, like they got nothing for this.

Nothing.

The only thing they didn't put in there, they did not put the Ukraine stuff in there.

So that is not.

McCarthy is said to have done a deal.

They passed.

It was his only way he was going to survive, right?

And now he's not going to probably survive, potentially.

Now he has to have the Democrats to bail him out.

Because if Gates is saying he's going to bring

a vote to get McCarthy out, and the only way McCarthy can be saved is really if Democrats come along for the ride with McCarthy.

Unless Bowman is trying to get to that vote and he accidentally pulls the fire alarm again.

He didn't pull it again.

Yeah, he could.

I mean, he might have.

I got to vote.

I've got to get there right right away.

Just trying to get door.

Trying to get that door to open.

Yes, it does.

Oh, no.

He tried it.

He tried to get there.

Darn it.

Darn it.

This happens from time to time.

No, it doesn't.

Well, time.

Not time to time, but just time.

Does time.

Just one time.

One time it's happened.

Does anybody, honestly,

does anyone believe that?

No, it can't be.

I can tell.

That doesn't work.

Listen to the AOC clip.

You can tell she doesn't even believe it.

And she's dumb.

She's incredibly stupid and she doesn't even believe it.

Play that clip again for me, will you?

I'll be honest.

It doesn't really make sense to me.

I'm not going to let you see his explanation.

Have you talked to him?

What's going on?

I mean, listen, I think if you actually do see some of the photos of the signs, I think there's something to be said about

the government's about to shut down.

There's a vote clock that's going down.

The exits that are normally open in that building were suddenly closed.

Okay, stop, stop, stop.

Suddenly closed.

They have a printed sign on the door.

It's not like somebody like out of order.

It's a printed sign.

Emergency exit only.

Do you have the sign?

Emergency exit only.

And then on the doors, it says push lever right above the lever.

Push lever.

Alarm will sound.

and doors will unlock in 15 seconds.

Now,

is that the fire alarm he pulled over there on the left?

I mean, it's so far out of the way.

It's on the left side.

It makes no sense.

When you have one of those doors that sets off, you know, you've seen them a million times.

Sure.

Open door, set off alarm.

Yeah.

What do you do?

You don't go through the door.

You don't go through the door.

If you had to go through the door and you didn't care if it set off the alarm, what would you do?

Press the lever on the bottom.

Push the lever thing that runs across the whole door.

Yeah, it's the door.

It's how you open doors.

Yes.

We all know how to open doors.

We know doors.

Yeah.

Don't open door.

Alarm will sound.

We know that.

Why would you then pull

the fire alarm?

I don't know.

I mean, it doesn't make any sense.

I mean, it shows how stupid he is because he, if he was going to do this, he could have theoretically opened the door and set it off, right?

Yeah.

He also would have set it off.

But not the fire alarm.

But if you're trying to hide it, just push through the door.

You set it off.

Oh, gosh, I didn't realize.

Yeah, but it wouldn't have set, it would have set off a door alarm?

A door alarm and an alarm to security.

But not the fire alarm.

But not the fire alarm for the whole building to evacuate.

It's incredible.

I mean, come on.

And nothing's going to happen to this guy.

Nothing's going to happen.

And I think, Glenn, correct me if I'm wrong.

I mean, the obvious thing to do here is to own this, right?

You just be like, look, the Republicans wanted to shut this thing down, and I just wanted to stop it, and I'm going to do anything I can to protect the American people.

Some BS excuse.

But if he does that, he's going to be liable for a crime.

22 years was

what they're giving some people for the exact same

exact same crime.

You're right.

That's potentially.

The guy was nowhere near the fire alarm, not even in the building, not even in the district.

Demonstration is in a different state.

Seditious conspiracy.

But I mean, you know, some of these people did get multiple years for the exact same crime.

Yeah, which is just impeding official proceedings.

Right.

And if he admits to the fact that he did this, he's going to be liable.

If he says, oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, I made a mistake, probably they're just going to let him off.

They're just going to just.

How about if we put

Kevin McCarthy in prison and we let this guy go?

I'm just saying.

I doubt, is that a real proposal?

Well,

in China,

you can substitute.

Did you know that?

No.

If you're wealthy, you can hire somebody to do your prison term for you.

That sounds awesome.

That would do all sorts of crap.

Yeah, you wouldn't even have to run for election to get that kind of treatment.

That sounds great.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's what happens in gangs, too.

Like, that's always the, there's always some like young, you know, young guy who's on his way up and they say, look, you take this time.

When you come out, you're going to be taken care of.

Yeah.

That's what always happens in the movies.

Yeah, that doesn't happen, though.

It doesn't happen here.

No.

No.

It doesn't happen here.

But I think we should amend it so Kevin McCarthy can go spend those 22 years in prison for Bob.

Do you think he's going to get ousted?

Do you think he gets tossed out of the speakership because of this?

God, I hope so.

I mean, but it could be bad things that are on the other side of that.

I mean, the Democrats could actually name a person who gets...

It could be a Democratic speaker, essentially.

That would be very bad.

Could be.

What's the difference?

Well, I mean, he's not.

Kevin McCarthy's a lot.

I'm not stubborn.

Kevin McCarthy's a lot of of things.

He's not a Democrat.

He's a bad Republican.

That's a terrible difference.

Are you the one of the others?

This is

the Glenn Beck program.

You know why people

really distrust, they say, I can never vote for a Republican.

I can never vote for a Republican.

Do you know why that is?

Because the Republicans suck.

We move on in 60 seconds.

That was the whole analysis?

That's it.

Wow.

That's what you pay me for.

I thought that one out.

I wrote that myself, by the way.

I want to talk to you about gold line.

If you thought borrowing was getting pricier, then you were wrong.

Thanks to the Fed's rate hikes, everything from homes to cars is now out of reach for many Americans.

And guess what?

The Fed's not slowing down anytime soon.

Tighten the belt.

You need to be protected against the coming tide of economic problems.

You can only turn your back on them for so long before it becomes too late.

Please, please.

Hard assets, things of value, not

something that you're going to...

you're going to try to sell and they're going to give you like stock.

I mean, what does that,

you know, I'm going to get, I'm going to get paper gold.

It's easier.

Uh-huh.

And you go ahead and try to get that gold when everybody's trying to get their gold.

Ya, it's right.

Please, in uncertain times, diversifying your assets matter.

Call 866GoldLine, 866Goldline, or go to goldline.com.

Yeah, so here's why the Republicans suck.

For the in-depth analysis, we go to our reporter, Glenn Beck.

Yes, I know I just said the Republicans suck, but they do, and here's why.

I'm sorry, I don't think we have enough time for that, Glenn.

No, I'm just going to make one point here, Glenn.

Thank you for the time.

We have tried to fight the fights that we can win for so long.

Yes, we have.

Your point?

Yeah.

We don't win those fights either.

We fight the fights that we win, and everybody hates us as a Republican.

Nobody wants to be a Republican because nobody knows what we stand for.

And your your point, Glenn?

Well, thank you, Glenn.

My point is, unless you fight the fights that have to be fought,

you don't really stand for anything.

Thank you.

It's our reporter in our weather and traffic coming up in just a minute.

A high energy reporter.

Yeah.

He's like he screws over the hurricane.

He's like a hothead.

He's a hothead.

He's the guy who just said the Republicans suck.

Oh, gosh, somebody just said it again.

Well, the Lord testifies in the mouths of many.

It's me and the reporter now saying that.

So we have two sources saying the Republicans suck.

So if

so, the idea is to throw him out now, McCarthy, which, you know,

there's an argument to be made.

There's a big argument.

There's a good argument to be made.

So, and you know, especially since

the idea that he made a deal on the Ukraine money and didn't tell anybody until after the vote.

It's

quite the approach.

Yeah, it is the approach.

It's kind of the

stab in the back.

You know?

Brutus, I thought you were my.

Here's my

concern, if I may.

Because I would not consider myself a McCarthy fan.

However, what I will say is when you do something like this, you need to have a plan as to how it plays out.

You don't just do it.

You need to know what happens on the other side when you do it.

McCarthyism has always been bad, Stu.

Okay.

And that's not a plan.

What you just said is it's a good line, but it's not a plan.

And that's what I keep hearing from everybody in Congress doing this.

They've got a lot of good lines, not a lot of plans.

Yeah, here's my plan.

Here's my plan.

Stand for something.

Go and appeal to the American people and say, because this is where the American people are.

They are on one thing

aligned.

This government and both parties seem hell-bent into sending your son or your daughter to a slaughterhouse in Ukraine.

We are not.

supporting this war without

without financial reconciliation on every dime we've already spent, and without somebody telling us, what are we doing over there?

We're not spending any more money.

This guy just made a backdoor deal, did not tell us.

He made a backdoor deal so he could fund it when the elected representatives were standing against it.

He made a deal that, don't worry, you can take the money out of this fund and you can just apply it.

I mean, the elective representatives are not standing against Ukraine funding.

They're not.

They're

not the Freedom Caucus was.

Right, a few of them.

So a few of them need to stand up.

Yeah, a few of them can.

But let's just, I mean, to talk about this process for a second here.

If, you know, Matt Gates is going to come out, he's going to try to get McCarthy thrown out.

There's a good chance that happens.

Why?

Because the only way it won't happen is if Democrats save him.

So the Democrats then have to make a calculation.

Either they want Kevin McCarthy to stay.

And of course, if they want him to stay, they're not going to do it out of the kindness of their heart.

What they will do is get lots of concessions and or influence his future behavior even more, right?

Or they can get him tossed.

Now, if they get him tossed, they decide not to save him, which is very much, I would say, the most likely scenario, but could happen.

Then you have a situation where the Democrats will have power to potentially name his replacement.

Do you think that's going to be better?

My guess is no.

No, I'm just tired of standing around

with

people who

lie to me, stab us in the back.

I agree with that.

I'm tired of it.

And, you know, they always get away with it because we always say.

Well, but it could be worse.

No, you know, we're out of time on that.

We've done that my whole life, my whole life.

And it keeps working out exactly the same.

I mean, we are Charlie Brown.

She is going to take the football.

Okay.

We know that.

It happens every time.

And

the time has, in my opinion, the time has come to say, enough is enough.

We're not playing this game anymore.

And I would rather go down fighting because we are going down.

Make no mistake.

We keep doing this.

We're going down.

So I would be the one on the floor that would stand up and say, everybody into your lifeboats.

These people are going to sink us.

Get into the lifeboat.

I'll take every Democrat, every Independent, every Republican that wants to go.

But we're going to answer to the people and tell them the truth.

This ship is sinking.

They know it.

They know it.

And it's because of the out-of-control spending and corruption in this building.

Who wants to get onto a lifeboat?

Because I'm not playing this game anymore.

And you, if you had one,

one Democrat that had the balls to stand up with you, you could start a new party and it would, it would be an avalanche.

An avalanche.

C.

Wiggs.

W-H-I-G-S.

And look, that's a very aspirational plan.

I would say it's difficult to pull off, but it's possible.

But it's a fight that needs to be fought.

I agree.

But like, you know, the other approach here, right, is to try to...

The problem with Kevin McCarthy is you've got, what, 200 and you've got a five-seat majority or four-seat majority.

It's so tight, it's hard to get anything done.

I mean, obviously, if you bring the argument that you just brought to the table and the American people agree with it, you can get enough seats that you don't have to deal with that, right?

You can get somebody better in there.

You can improve the situation.

You can't do it in this current situation, at least on a path that I can see pragmatically as the way this process is set up.

So you do, I mean, there is a risk.

Now, there's also the possibility that you toss the guy and then they can't do it.

The House can't do anything until they name somebody new.

And the Democrats just keep saying, Hakeem Jeffries, Hakeem Jeffries.

And of course, the Republicans don't go along with that.

And then we just stayed in a stalemate forever and nothing gets done.

And that might be the best possible outcome.

I love that one.

I might be the best one.

I love that.

If that's the plan, it might be a good idea.

Is there a reverse fire alarm where they all have to stay in the chamber and can never get out?

Now, you bring that to the American people.

I think you're going to win some elections.

I mean, I'll slip food underneath the door for them for what, you know, whatever, but I'm going to cut all lines inside.

And I, you know, I assume there's a restroom in there.

Otherwise, I'll let them take potty breaks, but they're not leaving the room.

They're never leaving the room.

I have to tell you, this is, we all know it.

Everybody knows it.

Everybody knows it.

The only people who are truly honest right now, I think,

are the truly independent people who are saying, I'm an independent, I'm not a party member, and actually mean it.

That if they found somebody that was really, really good, they would vote for him.

And they will vote for the worst of either party if they absolutely have to, but they're done playing the game.

And they know that the Republicans and the Democrats are both in on it.

That's the only person that I actually believe

today is somebody who says, oh yeah, my party,

I'm either leaving my party or I left my party.

because they're just as bad as the other side.

Now, people will say all the time, they're not just as bad.

The other ones are flaming Marxist communists.

Yes, they are.

But if I've got a guy, in fact, didn't everybody just in Canada have a cow when they had a Ukrainian who was fighting with the Nazis to

stop the Russians from coming in?

He was fighting with the Nazis

and I'm sure he could make the case.

Yeah, but I mean, if the Russians would have come in, it would have been worse.

And lo and behold, it was.

Everybody had a problem with the guy siding with the Nazis.

Why would we side and want anybody on our side that is siding with the Democrats most of the time?

I don't understand it.

I don't understand how you could stand with a party that is

for

mutilation of our children, for pedophilia, for relaxing any of these laws, for abortion to the point to where the party says celebrate your abortion and think that you are a Christian in good standing.

Help me.

Help me.

I'm not saying the Republicans are great.

But they're not promoting death all the time.

They're not not mutilating our children yet.

I don't understand it.

You cannot, you cannot put your foot into evil.

You cross that line, you're in.

My mother used to say, in for a pound, in for a penny.

You're in.

So I'm just, all I know is

there are good people that are fighting, and then there are people like Kevin McCarthy.

I mean, but he hasn't been completely bad.

I mean, one of the reasons why this investigation is going on right now, these investigations that are leading to certain, to seemingly good things,

is under McCarthy's leadership, right?

Like, I'm not,

you could throw the whole, look, I'm not saying he's been good, but this is why.

I remember when I was waiting for a report on the last president, I went, now, wait a minute, they're doing an investigation.

And that's going to come because we have Bill Barr and he's really good.

You've praised him multiple times on this stuff.

You have praised McCarthy specifically multiple times on this stuff.

Is there a bigger thing than securing our border?

No, I would say that's one of the biggest things we do.

Maybe there are some bigger things.

I would say, you know, millions of lives being, you know, lost in abortion and there's other things.

But also nuclear war.

Nuclear war, right?

But the border is a top priority issue, and he's not doing a great job on that.

I'm not arguing he is.

But like, what I'm saying is what we have is a bunch of crap.

And the idea is, do you want more crap piled on that crap that you have to eat or just the amount of crap you have now?

No, I can't.

Just maybe an MM or two on top to sweeten the pie.

Min M, I'm going to go out and get some dog poop, and I'm going to put your favorite whatever it is on top of it and see if you'll have.

I won't.

You won't.

I won't, but I will have that.

Because it's still poop but i will have that before i have poop on top of poop that's what i'm saying the poop on top of poop option does not sound good because i got this for you i'm not eating poop i'm not a dog i will you will poop you will have no choice but to eat poop that is my point the if this if he gets thrown out and the democrats are the one naming this person or so wait a manipulating mccarthy to be worse i love this you've got poop on top of poop on top of poop stu and i are the only people that i know of that we can really argue hard like this and not affect our relationship.

Oh, no.

It's not.

But you

blooming idiot.

So were your standards last week when it's like, yeah, we got to stand.

What did I say when I started this?

I said, this is fine, but have a plan.

If you have another candidate that Republicans will support that isn't McCarthy, fine.

I'm not opposed to that at all.

But what we're doing right now seems to be running into, hey, let's just run with our eyes closed into a building with spikes coming out of the walls and see what happens.

Well, you don't have to worry about it because somebody will pull the fire alarm and stop you from going in.

Back in just a second, Leslie wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

She says, When my rough greens order arrived, I was so excited to see what it could do for my two dogs.

Well, they both love it.

Shiloh is a mastiff lab and can be very picky, but no more.

You know what?

When a mastiff is picky, give it to him.

Whatever you want.

Both she and Liam, the greyhound, will be seven soon.

Both of them are showing signs of being more active and healthier now.

You know, with the mastiff, that might not have been the wisest choice to make him more active.

Leslie,

you don't have dogs.

You have a horse and a wolf, but.

to each his own.

It's not a dog food that you put onto the food.

It's a supplement that you sprinkle on top of whatever it is you're feeding your dog.

Well, here's the good news, gang.

We have RFK Jr.

going to be running as an independent.

Well, he has a big announcement.

We don't know what that announcement is.

No,

what could it be?

What could it be?

He's running as an independent.

So anyway,

he's announcing something big and exciting on October 9th.

He's going to run as an independent.

And

I'm not saying that this is a plan, but I'm not saying it either.

Okay, you'll have to decide.

But this looks like an election I've seen before.

Explain this move to me, Stu, and then I'll give you the history of where I've seen this before.

Well, I think the initial reaction from conservatives might be to cheer this on because he's a Democrat and he runs as an independent.

He pulls some Democrats, right?

That's good.

The issue here is that RFK Jr.

is far more popular among Republicans than he is Democrats.

He has done nothing over the past six months but to appeal to Republicans, which, of course.

That's right, because he's changed his mind.

He's one of us now.

Of course, it makes absolutely no sense in a Democratic primary to do this, right?

And he has made no headway at all.

He had one poll that showed him at 20%.

He's been nowhere close to that in months.

This has not helped him.

He's now vastly, overwhelmingly unpopular among the party, which he's running for the nomination, supposedly.

So now he leaves, and now he enters as an independent, as a guy who's overwhelmingly much more popular in the Republican primary.

And, you know, a lot of these polling analysts will tell you that actually it looks like he will pull more votes from the right than from the left.

And gee, that's.

That's

not at all surprising if he had lined that up from the beginning.

I've seen this before.

Around turn of the century uh

woodrow wilson running against that big fat tubba lard who got his bathtub and uh

and teddy roosevelt decides i'm gonna run now he's a progressive woodrow wilson is a progressive

woodrow wilson runs as the safe progressive

um roosevelt's the big game changer well guess who wins

uh Woodrow Wilson.

How?

Because Theodore Roosevelt was known as a Republican over a progressive, and

he split the Republican ticket.

And

then we got Woodrow Wilson.

Huh.

I wonder if that could happen again here, that a guy who's not really...

But he's saying all the right things to appeal to Republicans could peel off maybe two or three points.

All all of a sudden he's tough on the border.

What?

Yeah, RFK Jr.'s tough on the border.

Like, what?

Oh, that is it.

It seems very odd.

And look, maybe he pulls 3% as an independent, but I bet it's 2% from the right and 1% from the left.

And if you don't think 1% could make the difference in some of these states, I mean, you're sadly mistaken.

I haven't been watching this in a while.

Yeah.

All right, more in just a second.

Go

north.

Going way up north, thanks.

Inflation is absolutely destroying the spending power right now.

You have to remember, food prices are not going up.

The value of your dollar is going down.

So it takes more dollars to buy the same thing it's less and less valuable every single day and it's forcing us to change the way we handle our finances right now not only is the value of your dollar going down but interest rates are going up

why

because the federal government is printing too much money

You know,

Stu is so inartful at what he does.

When he said, you know, okay, I'm for the Republicans, but what's your plan?

Yeah, you're for the Republicans.

That's what I said.

I don't remember saying that.

You're for the Republicans.

You are for, you love

McCarthy.

You're not wearing a

iHeart McCarthy button right now.

It's crazy.

I'm not wearing that button.

But he said, you know,

you know,

the fight has to happen like it did, but now what's your plan?

And you're absolutely right.

And this is one thing I don't think anybody in Washington gets because they're all attorneys and they're all lawyers and they're all losers.

None of them are business people.

Stu, I taught you how to negotiate, right?

How do you negotiate?

Don't make threats, make promises.

Correct.

What does that mean?

That means don't come up and say, I'm going to leave unless you give me this.

That's a threat.

Right.

You need to make a promise.

I will leave if you don't give me this.

Right.

Or I will stay if we do this.

But when the negotiation closes and you lose, what happens?

You leave.

You leave, right?

And you're happy.

You're happy, you promise.

You're happy.

Yep.

You've made it.

The problem with the Republicans is they don't have a happy place to go to because they're not fighting for anything as a party.

They're not fighting for anything.

And they think,

we're going to play the game.

So I don't

do it because

our big boss says it's good.

That's, I mean, it's that simple.

That's much more articulate than they usually are.

What's your plan?

What's the plan?

What is your plan?

Then what?

Yeah.

Answer that question for me, and I'd be happy.

Then what?

Okay, well, we may never be able to bring you the result of that question or even ask that question.

If Canada sets the table, Canada is now

on the track to censor and regulate streaming services and social media platforms.

They've got more regulation coming.

Podcasters are going to have to register now with the Canadian Radio, Television, and Telecommunications Commission.

That's like our FCC.

You don't want a regulated Internet podcast

council.

The Online Streaming Act, formerly Bill C-11, goes into effect November 28, meaning any online streaming service that operates in Canada and generates revenue of more than 10 million in any given year will have to register with CRTC.

That's their FCC.

Canadian government pitches the new rule as a modern broadcasting framework that can adapt to changing circumstances.

To do that, we need broad engagement and robust public records.

It requires those podcasters to register with the government only once

and collect all of its basic information from them.

They have a new streaming service need to provide information about their activities in Canada.

Wow, that doesn't sound dystopian at all.

One of our friends to the program

actually wrote, I think, one of the better comebacks

for this.

Brian Lilly wrote, the CRTC now wants to regulate podcasts.

Here's my simple message to them.

Go to hell.

Brian Lilly is on the phone with us now from Canada.

Hello, Brian.

Hello, Glenn.

I didn't think I'd be able to say go to hell on the program.

I thought I'd have to say go to Pat Gray's hometown.

But, you know, there, you said it, so I can say it.

Will I be able to say it in Canada in the future?

I don't know.

This is a bizarre act.

You know,

because you guys follow politics closely, sometimes politicians pass a law that's very prescriptive and it details everything other times they pass a broad law and then they leave the rest up to regulation yes so you know some people are saying well this podcast registry and the whole bill will lead to censorship and defenders are saying no no it won't and i'm saying well actually it could and that's a problem because so much of it is left up to regulation of our broadcast regulator regulator, which has done such a bang up job that they're going to regulate the internet now.

Check out their website.

It looks like it was built for the Netscape Navigator era.

So are you concerned about, I mean, they have done everything they could to shut you up, to shut Rebel News up, Toronto Sun, all of this stuff.

Are you, how concerned are you that this is the beginning of the shutdown of voices in Canada?

I am concerned.

And I'll give you you an example from a podcast episode that we just dropped today.

So I host a podcast called Full Comment for my employer, Post Media.

They own the Toronto Sun and a bunch of other newspapers, a lot of conservative-leaning newspapers like National Post, and interviewed this woman named Catherine Barbensing,

Barbelsing.

And she's known as Britain's strictest headmistress.

Maybe you've heard of her.

She runs this school, inner-city London.

You know, the kids have to walk through the hallway silently.

There's dress codes, there's strict measures in place, there's expectations, traditional curriculum.

I tell you that that's going to upset a lot of people in the education system in this country, just like it will with yours, people who believe there should be no rules, that the kids should be the center of everything, that teachers don't matter.

You know, if this was in place, somebody could complain and then that podcast gets taken down.

I'm not saying that will happen, but the rules are in such a way that anything you say that upsets upsets somebody who's on the progressive side,

that could definitely end up taking away

my ability to put forward interesting ideas and information.

So do you know about Chloe Cole?

Yes.

Okay, so Chloe Cole, she has detransitioned

and is

on the speaking tour all the time now, speaking out.

She's a brave, brave girl, and she's speaking out about how bad it was for her when she was 11 and 12, and she's had her breasts removed, and she can't have children, most likely.

And it's bad, it's really bad.

She was giving an event against the treatments and surgeries on minors.

She was

going to speak at a ticketing, at a

ticketed event, and Eventbrite

deplatformed the event because it violated their policy on hateful, violent, and dangerous events.

Now,

how does that make sense to anybody?

It doesn't, and that's without even this podcast registry.

There's a lot of it that ends up being self-censorship by corporations or Jordan Peterson's case.

You know, I know you've talked to Jordan Peterson.

I talked to him just a couple of weeks ago after he lost at the College of Psychologists of Ontario.

He has to undergo re-education training.

Is he going to do it?

No, I think he told them to go to Hell in Montana.

Yeah.

He's just, he's challenging them in court.

And the last I talked to him, he was still quite defiant, as he should be.

But,

you know, we've got enough self-censorship already.

We don't need this.

And while I understand that you could update the Broadcasting Act, there's certain things that needed to be done.

The Trudeau government looked and said, we need to update the Broadcast Act for the online age.

Great.

Let's put in all kinds of stuff that could lead to bad places.

Let's make it so that our civil servants, our appointees, will control what can be said online.

Because, you know,

they said they wouldn't control social media, and then they came right out and said, yes, we will if you're broadcasting.

So if you're doing what Tucker Carlson does on

X and you start posting videos, you're going to be regulated.

And they say, well, we're just regulating the online streamers.

We're regulating the platforms, not the individual users.

That's like saying, I'm going to regulate the highways, but not the individual drivers.

So I'm going to, you know, pass all these new rules on how you have to drive on the highway, but that doesn't apply to individual drivers unless you're on the highway.

And it also,

it also, if they say we're just going to do this to the platforms, well, then the platforms will enforce it.

That's what's happening here in America.

They're just saying, you know, what do we have to do to impress upon you your responsibility to stop this kind of talk?

You know,

we can come up with some harsh regulations for you, you know, and then they self-regulate and they go and do all of the butchery so the government doesn't have to.

Sounds like a very similar thing.

It really is.

And back to Chloe Cole, who you mentioned earlier, we're having a big debate in this country over parental rights around gender identity in the school.

And can a kid change their name, their gender, the pronoun at school, and mom and dad not find out.

Well, this has been portrayed in our media as very controversial.

But a poll out just a couple of weeks ago showed 78% believe that the parents should know.

That's not a controversial position.

The 14% who think mom and dad shouldn't be told ever, that's the radical fringe.

That's where our prime minister is, by the way.

You put all of that into this context of

the regulators deciding what the rules are for what you can say online, we're in in a very dangerous place.

And so,

this is a horrible bill.

I've been screaming about it since they introduced it.

They went through a whole election and had to reintroduce it because it didn't pass in time.

And the conservatives really tried to get young people, especially, to be interested in this,

and they couldn't be.

We had our last election in the middle of COVID, and Justin Trudeau scared suburban moms into voting for him that

if they didn't vote for him, we'd all get COVID and die or not be allowed to have abortions with a gun at your head.

Well,

I know you're busy.

You guys up in Canada have to celebrate another Nazi, I think, today.

Well, you know, I'm sure we can find some.

We can rustle some up.

Well, you don't have to because the Russian Disinformation League will provide them for you.

You just have to root them out.

Of all the things for our prime ministers to do,

like, you know,

he's talking about Russian disinformation.

He just gave them all the ammunition they need to sit there and say, Ukraine's full of Nazis,

because he had Zelensky applaud one

and then says, well, it's not my fault.

I didn't do any vetting.

It's kind of your job when you're the leader of the country

or your staff's job to make sure that a foreign visit goes well.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I would, you know, I haven't seen Ronald or really any president.

I say that.

I should say anybody on the right

bring up, you know, an old Nazi and go, we should really celebrate this guy.

They'll bring up old Marxists from time to time, but non-Nazis.

All right, Brian, best of luck to you, man.

Thank you guys.

Okay, I guess Canada is out.

Not going to be able to go up there.

All right, let me tell you about our...

You're on the verge of this.

I was thinking about it this morning when I saw that the draft was coming back.

Not that I'm worried about me, but I thought I'm not sending my son or my daughter into a war in Ukraine.

Never going to do it.

I can't tell you.

I'll drive them across the border.

And I thought, Canada's worse.

Do you know how many times this show drives me into looking at real estate in other countries?

Yes.

I can't even tell you how many times I wind up going on.

Can I tell you something?

There are broadcasters that I know, and

there's two of us.

There's two of us that are anchors that will not leave the country.

But there are broadcasters I know.

They've got, oh,

I think they even have luggage packed to get out.

I'm

one of them.

I thought I was

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're glad you're here.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, who we like on this program, he is perhaps the most active among his state peers on

the subjecting of children and gender identity.

He has issued his own emergency regulation.

Specific requirements

for minor transitions and legislative action followed it up seven months after he launched the investigation of the pediatric gender clinic at Washington University in St.

Louis.

which was prompted by a former case manager.

She alleged of treatment protocols that were a little over the top.

The university said they would stop prescribing puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to children.

So, hmm,

that one

didn't work out to be true for the hospital.

They were.

Now, Missouri has a new law that lets minors sue providers.

And

I guess now the hospital's like,

wait a minute, what?

So now everybody, listen to this.

Now everybody's going to Planned Parenthood because Planned Parenthood has just opened something else for women.

It's a women's clinic, but you can be a man and want to be a woman or a woman who wants to be a man.

So women are involved both times.

Every once in a while, I think maybe this is just a money-making scheme.

A money-making scheme slash Democratic Party slash

evil organization starting by Satan.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Every once in a while I think that and I'm like, I can't possibly be true.

They're so well respected, but I think it might be actually true.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, damages in Missouri now start at $500,000.

Start with no maximum.

Patients have 15 years to sue after receiving treatments from the age 21, whichever is later, even if those are grandfathered into continued treatment.

So if you've had a sex change

and you were in Missouri, if you ever change your mind for 15 years after you're 21, so that would be 36 if my math is correct.

I don't know.

It's a very complicated one.

I'm not a rocket scientist.

But

you can sue them.

And that is the most effective way to take care of problems.

When somebody screws up your life, yeah, suing them usually makes them stop screwing up other people's lives.
