RUN! 'FedNow' Is the Government's Slippery Slope to CBDC | Guests: Bernie Marcus & Justin Haskins | 3/21/23

Got a big day today.

Got several big interviews we have to do today.

I'm going to be here working hard, sweating like crazy, but I will smell as fresh as a daisy

because I've got sweat block.

Yes, that's right.

Sweat block blocks sweat.

That's why they call it sweat block.

And it really does block sweat.

I mean, it blocks like

all sweat.

We gotta stand together, it's a course of life.

Stand up, sit, and hold the light.

It's a new day, I'm tired to rise.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

What a coincidence, and I'm Glenn Beck.

How did that happen?

Wow.

Well, I'm so glad to be here, and I'm glad you're listening from behind my cardboard microphone.

I'm going to give you all of the information that you need today.

We're going to start.

In fact,

let me play it now.

We've got cut seven.

Here's Joe Biden yesterday.

Vim and vigor.

They're making a great case on why he just signed

a veto for the anti-ESG bill.

Here it is.

I just signed this veto because the legislation passed by the Congress would put at risk the retirement savings of individuals across the country.

They couldn't take into consideration investments that would be impacted by climate, impacted by overpaying executives, and that's why I decided to veto it.

It makes sense to veto it.

Okay,

that's not what that bill is saying.

But I veto it.

They think you're stupid and

I go to Kamala Aires

for evidence and

a conspiracy theory that seems to be coming true.

Fed now.

What's that?

Oh, I can't wait to tell you.

We begin in 60 seconds.

Good ranchers, America's farmers and ranchers are counting on us.

We need to ask, act.

Did you see in, where was it, the Netherlands, where all the farmers, man, farmers, I would love for you to run for office.

They are running for office in the Netherlands and they are now, I believe, the biggest party in the Netherlands, are they not?

All these farmers were like, enough of this ESG stuff and you're going to kill everybody because you're not letting us use fertilizer.

Well, they organized and

guess what?

The farmers in the Netherlands are back on top.

Now, here's the problem.

In America, we haven't done that yet.

And our ranchers and our farmers are really struggling.

But don't worry.

That's right.

Bill Gates is...

In your neighborhood and he's buying up farmland.

Mm-hmm.

Instead of that why don't you order your meat from good ranchers right now about uh 70 or 80 percent of the meat that you find in your supermarkets not from america even though it has a little sticker on it says oh american product no it's not it's not goodranchers.com it is and you'll get free bacon for a year wait a minute bacon There's 24 ounces of Applewood smoked bacon added to each box for a year.

Well, hello, Stu.

Glenn Beck, how are you?

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh.

You know,

they're putting up barricades now around

the

Manhattan Criminal Court.

Let's put this.

Can we show them?

There it is.

They're coming out of the truck right there.

The barricades.

Those barricades would stop anything.

Well, they're pretty short and bike racks, basically.

Right, but they'd stop anything.

Yeah.

And they've got to stop that teeming crowd of Americans that are so fed up with the federal government that they're just going to go.

All of those New Yorkers that just love Donald Trump

are going to be down there.

As we've learned previously, major city centers are

big.

big hotspots for Trump country that came directly from Jesse Smollett.

That's right.

He told us that.

Yeah, it's Trump country.

It's Trump country.

That's what they do.

They run around and they say, this is Trump country.

Yeah, so

they're not sure when they're going to arraign him or if they're going to arraign him, but they're just getting ready.

They're just getting ready.

I mean, it does seem like they are preparing for it.

What?

Again, they have not announced they're going to do this, but it certainly does seem like they're preparing for it.

We're in New York.

It's almost like a circus take our mind elsewhere.

So

let's talk about how stupid this administration thinks you are.

Here's our vice president talking to a black college team

after the March Madness loss last Thursday.

Here she is.

Listen to this.

You guys are so good.

You guys are so good.

You played hard.

You played to the very last second.

You made all those bicycles so, so good.

Every time we did, man, you hustled out there.

You are smart.

You are disciplined.

You put everything you had into the game.

And you know, that's what it's about, right?

Until the last minute,

you guys did that.

You didn't stop.

Until the last second, you did not stop.

Okay.

And that is so inspiring.

So you keep

playing with chin up and shoulders back.

Oh, shut up.

Shut up.

This is how stupid they think people are.

She's talking to them like they're

four, four years old.

And like they won.

Right.

Which they did not.

Oh, you destroyed.

You're hard out.

You were

so smart.

Shut up.

And

up.

You played to the last minute.

Was there a choice?

What other possibility is there than playing to the last minute?

That's what all teams do in every game.

Let me ask you this.

So this is, again,

a little circus, little sideshow that you can watch.

Meanwhile, there is someone talking to students

like an adult and talking to them about

the

banking process and what's really going on.

Listen to this teacher talking to his students.

Listen to this.

So I put 10,000 into the bank.

They take my 10,000 and they go get 100,000.

They borrow it from the Fed window.

They get 10 times the amount of our deposits that we put into the bank.

They then get 10 times the amount.

They then take that 10 times the amount and they put it into treasury bonds or something else that's going to give them a yield of 7% or 6%.

While they pay us what?

0.0000 nothing percent.

It's friendly.

Right.

And then what happens?

We get hip to it and say, hey, Mr.

Silicon Valley Bank, can I have my money back?

Oh, we don't have it right now.

I want my money back.

I don't have it.

Everybody, I want my money back.

Give us our money back.

Hold on.

We got to go sell the treasury bonds that we invested in that now are upside down because the rates are through the roof.

And I don't have your money.

So what has to happen to their Ponzi scheme that I would have went to jail if I did that?

They get bailed out.

Mr.

Biden comes up and says, oh, I'm going to print more money.

I wonder why he's going to print more money.

To devalue your dollar even more.

Because guess what they're doing next to you?

They're going to centralize banking.

They're going to own crypto.

They're going to regulate everything to be digital.

Okay, all right.

So this is the first step to the business.

Oh my gosh.

Stop.

I can't.

That's a conspiracy theory.

That is how irresponsible that teacher.

Boy, I'll tell you something right now peddling these lies.

I found something yesterday interesting.

It's called Fed Now.

Here's how it works, Cut One.

Today, people and businesses expect to make and receive payments at the click of a button any time of the day, every day of the year.

And most expect their financial institutions to offer or support payment services that meet the speed and convenience they seek.

In fact, three in four businesses and two-thirds of consumers surveyed think it's important that their bank or credit union offer faster payments.

Right.

Financial institutions interested in meeting these demands can use the Federal Reserve's upcoming FedNow service to build innovative payment offerings that can help them retain and attract customers and avoid losing out to the competition.

With the FedNow service launching in 2023, the time to start preparing is now.

What can financial institutions do to get ready?

A bank or credit union should first get a sense of the demands and trends in the market.

Let's take a look at how one financial institution might do this.

Meet Jill, the CEO of Community Bank.

Oh.

Jill keeps a close eye on Community Bank's customer retention rates.

She was surprised to see new research showing that nearly two-thirds of businesses and one-third of consumers indicated they would factor access to faster payments into future decisions on whether to switch financial institutions.

Jill and her team looked at their own customer transactions and discovered an increasing number of customers moving funds to alternative payment services, services, such as digital wallets and mobile payment apps.

Uh-oh.

This corresponded with a noticeable decline in customers' deposits and accounts at Community Bank.

They knew they had to take action.

Jill and team reviewed FedNow education tools and resources to understand how the service will work and how to prepare for it.

They also learned about instant payment use cases,

including account-to-account transfers, bill pay, and and person-to-person transactions.

These resources

so these the Fed now

the Fed now system

is taking applicants beginning next month and they're launching this July for your independence for your freedom for your security for your benefit.

And so now

you can go to one of these banks.

You might meet Jill.

Did I introduce you to Jill from Community Bank?

Jill's done a survey and she found people want access to their money quickly.

Two-thirds of consumers believe their money should be available at the bank when they go.

Good poll.

Okay, so what is Jill doing?

Jill's going to the Fed and saying, Can we have

your non-blockchain system and and and have it so we can give everybody a credit card or a bank card and it it won't say fed now on it but it'll be the engine of fed now

where they just swipe their card and instantaneously they can buy something

Yeah, what?

What kind of futuristic world is this?

It's a crazy futuristic world.

Flying cars.

What's next?

But it will be faster.

Because, see, right now, like

if you go to a bank and you need to transfer funds,

you got to go to the bank and say, hey, I need to transfer these from one account to another.

And then they're like, oh, okay,

account number.

And they write it down.

Okay.

And you want to transfer your where?

Okay.

All right.

Sign this.

Okay.

Then

they do this really old, archaic thing.

They go.

Okay, done.

Hello.

It's the year 2023.

We can't wait that long.

No, we need something faster, and we want it to go through the Fed every time we make a purchase of something.

What could possibly go wrong with this system?

Well, they want you to know this is an alternative

for a Fed coin.

Yeah.

Yeah, they're not, they're saying, no,

we want you to know clearly, this is not to introduce central bank digital currency, a CBDC.

No, no.

This is an alternative to that.

Hmm.

Why do you, hmm, why do you doesn't sound like much of an alternative.

It sounds like the same thing.

Well, no, because you'll have,

a bank card instead.

It'll be your local bank doing it.

It looks like one thing, but it is another.

And also, Jill

is a man.

That's how the video ends.

We didn't get to that part, but that's how it ends.

You find out that Jill, the CEO of Community Bank,

he's a dude.

So, did anybody hear about the quote much anticipated

and

heralded new

Fed now system.

Have you been waiting?

Because I didn't even know about it.

No.

In fact, I thought all of this was a conspiracy.

The video was from 2021.

Yeah.

It's almost like there was something behind this the whole time.

Is it really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Isn't it weird that it's like, hey, everybody, we're going to do this in April.

And banks, if you're having a liquidity problem, your answer is just over the horizon with Fed now.

Wow.

What a coincidence.

But remember, this has nothing to do

with a Fed coin because

that would track every dime that you spend.

Oh, and some other things that

You should probably be aware of.

I'll tell you about that in 60 seconds.

How do people have faith in socialism?

It's failed over and over and over again.

You know why?

You know why it's failed?

Wrong people.

No, it's not that it's a horrible idea and goes against human nature itself, so it always ends in bloodshed.

No, it always ends in bloodshed because they didn't do it right, but this time it will be different.

Now, how do you get people to believe that?

Oh, I don't know.

Take over education?

Yeah.

And they've done that.

What are your kids learning?

I would like to ask you to turn to the Tuttle Twins to help fight back and teach your kids about personal responsibility, free markets, entrepreneurship, limited government.

By the way, you know who we have on today?

You want to talk about personal responsibility and entrepreneurship?

The guy who started Home Depot is on with us today.

He is fantastic.

Anyway, the Tuttle Twins will teach your kids all of these things.

The left despises these because, I mean, they'd be good, but it was just the wrong people writing it this time.

Maybe they can rewrite it like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

The Tuttle Twins would like to offer you a free DVD with some of the episodes of their cartoons.

They now have really great cartoons and their books.

All you have to do is order a set of their kids' books at tuttletwinsbeck.com.

This week only, tuttletwinsbeck.com, You get a free DVD with the episodes of their cartoon when you order the books.

That's this week only, tuttletwinsbeck.com.

10 Second Station ID.

Okay, next hour we're going to get into this and show you exactly what needs to be done and what is really happening.

But we've been telling you about the Uniform Commercial Code.

I know kids are running, wait, dad, is he talking about the UCC again?

Turn it up.

I know, it's so exciting.

But the universe, the uniform commercial code is the UCC, is something that we use to just make everything

compliant with each other, easy to do business with each other.

It's been around forever, and they change it from time to time.

But they've just made a major change

regarding CBDC.

It is changing

the definition of money to include the Fed coin, which definitely is not happening.

It's just Fed now, which is an alternative.

Anyway, it's really important that you stop this dead in its tracks.

However, we have been talking to some internees and everything else, and

there's more to this than met the eye.

When you put money into a bank, you are taking real physical cash that you possess

or can possess, and you're giving that over to the bank as a deposit.

When you do that, you give the bank control of that money.

So as soon as you give the money to the bank, you're really no longer the owner.

of that money.

The bank has that money.

You become a liability, somebody they have to pay back.

That's the way the law is written.

The bank owns the money, and you're still entitled to get the money back, of course,

and to use the deposit account to cover expenses.

But you're no longer the owner of the money.

This is why the bank has the right to lend the money to somebody else without checking with you first.

If you want to take the money out of the bank account, you take ownership again.

You're like, I don't like you, Mr.

Banker.

I'm going to go see Jill at community.

Was it Jill the guy at community Jill Jill a community bank community bank you take your deposit out you take it in cash you walk away and you go over see Jill hey Jill oh formerly Jim you wanna you wanna open up an account with us

okay here's the problem with central bank digital currency

there is no physical cash There's even with Bitcoin, you can take it on a thumb drive and you stick it in your pocket.

Or you can move it from

one

off-ramp to another.

Just memorize your seed phrase.

That's all you get to do.

Good.

A bunch of different things.

Okay.

So, but it's yours, but CBDC is electronic and it's only in FedNow.

It's only in the Federal Reserve system.

So,

let's see.

Is that a FedNow in your pocket, Jill?

Or are you just happy to see me?

Theoretically, a digital currency could be designed so you could download it on a hard drive, store it on a private digital wallet or something, but that's what FedNow is getting rid of.

So there's no chance

that

CBDC is going to be designed this way.

Now, that means...

Your deposits, once you deposit them in the bank with the Fed, that makes the deposits not money.

Therefore, Therefore, you don't own it.

The institution controlling the platform, either the private banks or the feds, would own it.

You would own no money.

It would be the people who control the platforms.

Oh, you mean like, you'll own nothing, you'll have no privacy, and you'll love it?

Well, yes, two of those three things are true.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're glad you're here.

So yesterday,

I tweeted and put something, I think, on Instagram,

a video of

my wife and I went shopping at Costco yesterday.

And so

I just tweeted, not saying you should go to Costco, but I'm not saying it either.

Just assuming like a dummy that people would understand that I'm concerned about the banking system.

and you know just a good idea to stock up on aspirin and children's Tylenol and allergy medicine and things that you know you're gonna need if there's a breakdown of the supply chain you don't want to be without medicine and toothpaste and things like that sure so that's what I did yesterday and then immediately it caught fire with Glenn Beck is suggesting that there will be so much unrest due to Trump being indicted that people should stock up on essentials.

You suggested that?

That's what I suggested, apparently.

So that was what I was really worried about.

Had nothing to do with the banks.

Nope.

Had nothing to do with that.

I feel like that was in the news.

People may have heard of it.

Yeah, I know.

It might have been something that I've been known to talk about, being prepared.

And speaking of that, I have the results of this audience, and I think it's going to shock you.

This audience, we took a poll of 10,000 audience members.

How prepared are you?

Now, we took this last week.

Stu, you didn't get a chance to participate, darn it.

So, for mainly entertainment purposes,

I thought we would have you take the poll.

How much food do you have saved with a long shelf life?

I only order takeout, maybe till the end of a work week.

At least two weeks worth of food.

My food stockpile can last several months.

That's three.

I'm good for at least a year.

I mean, definitely at least two weeks.

I would say the question is, can I get to several months?

And I think.

Can you get several months?

Three.

Yeah, I think I could get to, I'll go with that one.

I think I could get to that.

I do have a,

I had a place in order a couple of years ago of my Patriot supply.

Got some stuff.

For what?

Like your 48-hour kit for my Patriot supply?

It was like a big, a couple of big boxes.

It's got lots of packets in there.

Do you even know where they are?

Yes.

Oh, boy.

Yes.

I loosely.

They're in one.

I know kind of where they are.

Okay.

I can find them in a pinch.

How much bottled water do you have stored in case of an emergency?

Tap water doesn't count.

None.

I'd be dead within three days.

I have a large pack of plastic water bottles from my kids' soccer games that could last a couple of days.

Definitely

at least this high.

I have a few Costco-sized water bottle packs that could last a week or two.

My water stockpile could last several months.

I'm good for at least a year.

There's a big gap between a couple weeks and several months.

I feel like I'm falling in that window quite a bit because I do have a few of those big water cooler jugs.

Yeah.

You know, I kept, we had a water cooler for a while.

We don't have it anymore, but I kept a bunch of the extra bottles just in case because I was thinking about you.

You're always talking about that.

So when, let's say, power goes out,

you'll be able to not fill those right away.

No, they're filled.

Oh, they're filled.

They're sealed.

Good for you.

When they were first delivered.

Good for you.

Now, you probably have a better water supply than I have.

Really?

Yeah.

I knew it.

Yeah.

I'm the one who's prepared around here.

Oh, well,

anyway.

How many of the following basic supplies do you have?

A flashlight with extra batteries.

Yeah, almost definitely.

Like a battery central, man.

Yeah.

My wife has

like batteries.

Battery-powered, solar-powered radio.

Solar-powered Radio or battery-powered radio.

I might have that.

Cell phones and chargers.

Cell phones and chargers.

Yes, I've got cell phones and chargers.

And matches.

We have a few lighters.

Yeah.

Does that count?

Well, I guess.

Doesn't say lighters, but

matches.

I mean, I think I was pretty good on that one.

Okay.

Yeah.

I mean,

I'm basically a prepper is what we're learning here.

How secure is your home or or your shelter?

Not prepared at all.

I have a fireplace and firewood.

Okay.

I do have a fireplace.

Yeah, but it's gas, isn't it?

I do have a gas fireplace.

I do have an out

one of those little outdoor fire pits.

Does that count?

I just got a propane tank.

No.

No, it really doesn't.

No.

All right.

We can move, slide that right into the house.

What could go wrong?

Yeah.

I have an alternate source of heat to cook food, like a charcoal grill or camping stove.

That's there you are.

I have a gas grill.

In addition to a heat source, I have a backup generator in case of power outages.

I have a little backup generator.

Okay.

We used it because we lost power.

Right.

And I was able to power the refrigerator for like eight straight hours.

There you go.

We didn't lose our food.

Yeah.

I have an entire bunker that's ready to go if power goes out.

I do not have that.

Well, I have that.

That's Glenn's house.

We think of Glenn's house as our guns.

If I wouldn't have lost them in that

you lost them in the fishing accident because now I can come over and you probably won't shoot at me at least early.

How strong is your emergency fund?

This one is really very important because if the banks go down, which do not panic, all you have to do is prepare.

If you have enough money for a few days of what it would cost to

get gas and food or whatever,

you should have that in cash.

It'd be great to have, you know, your monthly bills in cash for a month.

Okay.

But you should have some cash just in case there's a banking holiday.

I love that.

I mean, if the bank is collapsed, or I mean, I'm not paying bills.

What are they going to do?

I just tell them a bank's collapse.

Sorry, I can't make those payments.

Okay.

How strong is your emergency fund?

I don't have an emergency fund.

My emergency fund can cover one to two months of expenses.

This is not cash on hand.

This is what you would have in the bank.

Okay.

Three to five months of expenses.

Six to eight months of expenses.

A year's worth of expenses.

I mean, I could go easily into multiple years.

I've got it all stored over at FTX.

I don't remember.

I haven't checked it in a while.

How much do you have invested in silver, gold, or other precious metals?

None.

I bought half a gram of silver just for kicks.

Precious metals are a small part of what I have.

Precious metals, medium, or precious metals, large part.

Ooh.

You know, I mean, that's just,

I mean.

This is entertainment purposes.

This is entertainment purposes.

My social security number is that the next question on this?

How many of these barter skills do you know?

Oh, gosh.

Ooh, I was bad on this one.

Carpentry, sewing,

auto repair, medical expertise, or zero.

When do you get to talk on radio?

That's zero.

Okay.

Yeah, that's zero.

I had to punch zero in that one.

Yeah, definitely.

How much emergency fuel do you have stored for your car?

None.

I have an extra gallon of gas in the garage.

I have enough extra gas for last a month.

Gas stored for last

six months.

What are you supposed to do with extra gas?

You put it in plastic containers, big red plastic containers.

And then what?

And then you fill them up.

And then over about a two-month period, you cycle through that gas.

So if you need gas,

I've read horror stories about the, because I had the, because we lost power, I had to go get gas at the you know for the generator.

Right.

And I did that.

And then I had left, once the power came back on, I had leftover gas.

Right.

And then I was like, well, what am I supposed to do with this gas?

And then I started reading, I went online.

I made the mistake of searching for what I should do.

And it was like, your house will burn down if you keep this gas anywhere within 500 feet of your home.

That's basically what they said.

So then I just started, I just started running my car in the driveway, burning gas and filling it back up.

That's legitimately what I did.

I just ran my gas in the driveway for like eight straight hours and just kept filling it up until I burned all the gas into the atmosphere, directly into the atmosphere.

If you have a shed or something like that, just keep it in the shed.

Then the shed burns down.

That's what the obvious thing is.

And there will be an explosion.

How well do you know how to use a paper map?

I'm good at that.

Hopeless without an iPhone.

Could possibly navigate to the other side of the neighborhood, navigate around a new city, can handle long-haul roadmap trips with a paper map.

I'm bare grills.

Drop me in the middle of Mongolian desert with a map and a compass, and I can find my way back to civilization.

I mean, I probably am not to that level, but I can read a paper map.

I will say this is the same thing that's going to happen with AI.

I was thinking of you the other day when I was thinking of this because

what happened from maps to GPS is

about what's about to happen with our writing skills.

Everything.

Everything.

Everything.

You're not going to do any of it anymore.

You're just going to look.

You're going to click AI.

You're going to click chat GPT.

It's going to write something up.

You don't even glance at it.

You'll go, I need report.

What's going on?

Yes, we got it.

Idiocracy is going to happen.

It's going to happen.

It's going to happen.

All right.

Did you actually take it and click on it?

Oh, I thought you were doing it.

No, I was doing it for me.

I'm Mad Max, by the way, 100%.

You have to.

With no skills.

No skills.

Anyway.

I'm quickly going through it.

You go through it.

10,000 people took the quiz in this audience.

Where do you think most of this audience is?

I mean, I would think you'd think this audience super well prepared, right?

So

1.7 are toast.

You won't survive if your kitchen table breaks.

Okay.

It's like, I don't know what to do.

I had to eat the children.

So that's 1.7% 1.7 that took it not prepared at all.

13% could survive a mild disaster.

They've tucked

some finances away for emergencies.

They have useful tools or skills

and a little bit of food.

Most of this audience could survive a big disaster.

In fact, 69.8% of this audience.

Congratulations.

You have some investment in precious metals, an emergency fund, some food and supplies stockpiled, maybe an extra generator.

Even though you may not be a prepper, you've taken steps to prepare for hard times, which will protect you and your loved ones for weeks, even months.

That's 70% of this audience.

And then

there's this Mad Max category of 15%, 14.7%.

15% of this audience is Mad Max.

You're one of the few people who could actually survive a nuclear apocalypse.

There's few.

I bet you in the general population, I can't even imagine what?

1%, less than 1%.

Your bunker is stocked with food, water, supplies to last you months.

Silver, gold, emergency fund will help you cruise in times of financial distress.

You can secure more goods because you have learned a bunch of barter skills.

You are Mad Max.

It's great.

Now, if you haven't taken this test, you can just take it for yourself now.

But we have the ultimate preparation guide, which is filled with really easy,

do this, do you have this?

Glenn Beck.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

The White House has sounded the alarm on the Freedom Caucus budget plan.

You know, they want to cut spending.

And Joe Biden said it's irresponsible.

He's got to spend

$7 trillion in the next year.

There's nothing left in the cupboard.

Yeah, there's nothing left.

So he needs $6.8 trillion

or we're going to default.

And the Freedom Caucus says, no, I don't.

I don't think so.

But who will win?

So we need to spend more money to avoid default?

Who knew?

I feel like the opposite.

Spend money to make money, Stu.

You got to spend money to

make money.

Imagine how much money we're going to make if

we spend $6.8 trillion.

I mean,

it'll be less than $6.8 trillion

knowing this government.

And

I'm not expecting that the president is...

They are seriously considering photographing him, mugshot, and fingerprint if he's indicted, and bring him in.

And

Trump has said...

That's the whole point.

Yeah.

Trump said he'd turn himself in.

Trump has also said you could do it virtually, you know, and that can be done, but nope, not good enough.

They need a perp walk.

This is the whole reason they're doing this, right?

And I think they're doing it intentionally just to drive you out of your mind.

You know, it's not, it's, it's, uh,

is it really a coincidence that this is happening when we're this close with Joe Biden and all of his stuff in with Hunter Biden?

Really?

Because once he does this, then they'll just say, they're only doing that because of what we did to

Donald Trump.

That's what they're going to say.

Is it also a coincidence that we're on the eve of war and financial collapse and this is going on?

No.

That's You should hear that every time.

Every time.

There's no reason to get upset by this.

They've been doing this to Donald Trump

since the day he walked down the elevator.

So

what are we going to do about it?

We're going to elect people who have a spine and we're going to keep

the heat on the feet of the GOP

and tell them,

stop this nonsense.

Stop it now.

Where's your spine?

Stand up to the Justice Department.

Let me tell you about Rough Greens.

Whoever said taking care of dogs is easy,

it's not.

You have to, for a really good job,

you know, my kids think I'm taking them out, you know, once a day.

Okay, that's not really a good job.

That's not even the basic job.

Giving your dog the best food and watching his health is really important.

Kibble food has all the, you know, good stuff cooked out of it.

This is where naturopathic Dr.

Dennis Black came in.

He set out to solve the problem and come up with a basic supplement that you can sprinkle on anything your dog is eating and turn it into a really healthy meal.

It's called Rough Greens.

Go to roughgreens.com slash Beck.

It's roughgreens.com slash back.

All right.

National radio program begins again.

Hour number two in just a few seconds.

Stand by for news.

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

I lit the fuse and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

He kept saying, no, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's going to tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

AKA Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

We got no room to cop and bite.

We gotta stand together as a girl surviving.

Stand up, stand, and hold the light.

It's a new day, our time to rise.

What you're about to hear

is is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Well, hello, America.

I want to give you some really important information

that you probably don't know about with our banking system and

the fun of central bank digital currency.

But I want to start here again.

This is cut one.

Joe Biden yesterday

as he signed a veto on the woke ESG investing.

I just signed this veto because the legislation passed by the Congress would put at risk the retirement savings of individuals across the country.

They couldn't take into consideration investments that wouldn't be impacted by climate, impacted by overpaying executives.

That's right.

That's why I just

added a veto because I have many powerful friends that are going to take over the world.

Get into that here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about our sponsor.

It's My Patriot Supply.

Do you use that anymore?

Because I don't know about you, but I feel a little like Vicente

in The Princess Bride.

I'm like, inconceivable.

No, it's really not.

Nope, unthinkable, inconceivable.

Justin Haskins is with us.

Justin is

the social, he's with the Socialism Research Center at the Heartland Institute, where he is the director.

He has been working tirelessly on stopping socialism.

He is also, he was one of our main contributors to our Arguing with Socialist book.

He is also my co-author of the book, The Great Reset, and our fourth coming book,

We're All Going to Die.

I'm not sure exactly what we what did we name it?

Justin

that was my working title for quite some time.

Have we are we telling people?

Is this the first time?

I don't know.

Can we?

Is it you know what?

Check some of it.

Hang on.

Check Amazon.

See if it's up for sale.

If it's up for sale, we'll announce it.

It's supposed to be in the next few days.

The name of the book.

No, no, no, don't say it.

Don't say it.

Don't say it.

Okay.

So, Justin, you wrote to me something kind of disturbing.

Last hour,

I played these happy little commercials from the Federal Reserve about the Fed now.

It's a new service for all of the banks,

which will make the transfer of funds.

You know, whether you're out shopping or you're a business owner or you're doing bank-to-bank transactions, you just run everything through the Federal Reserve and it'll happen fast.

Yeah, isn't that exciting?

It's very exciting.

Now, they're claiming that this is

the alternative to a CBDC, which is a central bank digital currency, doesn't really sound so much like a alternative as much as a,

I don't know, system to run that on.

Yeah, I mean, basically, this is this is like Jason Battrell, your head researcher, because he and I are now best friends and we exchange emails all the time.

He's my best friend.

He came up with this great analogy.

This is like the drug dealer who's new on the block, and he's not just going to start injecting people with heroin.

That's not how you sell lots of drugs.

That's not how you do it.

First, you get them hooked.

You just give them a little taste.

And then after they get a little taste, now they're hooked.

Then you can start really pushing the hard stuff.

That's what this is all about.

Okay, the Federal Reserve is basically a drug pusher.

And this is the start of it.

Normally, regular folks like you and me and people in the audience, we don't interact with the Fed.

We're not used to that.

We don't like the Fed.

We don't trust them very much.

And so what they want to do is say, just have a little taste.

You'll see.

It's going to be great.

Just have a little taste.

This is a stepping stone.

to a CBDC.

This is our first interaction to using the Fed directly so that we can become more comfortable with it, so it's normalized.

And then after this, you're going to get a central bank digital currency.

We already know this because there's a billion government reports talking about how they're going to design it, what it's going to look like, why people should use it, what the principles should be behind it, all of that kind of stuff.

So we know a CBDC is coming.

This is just the first step in that process to try to normalize people interacting directly with the Fed in this sort of high-tech instant transfer payment portal.

So we've been talking about the uniform commercial code, which is complicated and

it's usually nothing anyone should ever have to think about.

However, they have included central bank digital currency as the new definition of money.

But money makes us think of

money that you can take from the bank, that you own it, you get paid, you get to do what you want with it.

But central bank digital currency is not really money, correct?

Yeah, what's happening in more than 20 states across the country right now, and it's going to happen in all 50 states eventually, is lawmakers are looking at updating the uniform commercial code so that a foundation is being laid for a future central bank digital currency.

And not just any kind of central bank digital currency, but a central bank digital currency that is programmable, trackable, that you won't have any privacy with the things that you're doing with the CBDC, that it can be controlled and manipulated.

This kind of thing is actually being written into the code.

They don't use the words central bank digital currency,

but they outline it in such a way so that that has to be what they're talking about.

So it's not creating the CBDC.

That's not what this is aiming to do.

It's just laying the foundation to make it easier to use it in certain kinds of commercial transactions.

So people know, and this is what you really have to understand.

This is not like Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is such a danger because you get to do with it what you want to do with it and the Federal Reserve is not aware of anything and can't do anything.

You have the ultimate power with your money.

The opposite is true with the Fed coin that they will be introducing.

And this is what makes it so dangerous, not just the tracking.

They not will not just know absolutely everything that you spend, but Justin just said a key word that most people don't really understand.

It's programmable, meaning it is programmable for the individual.

So in other words, if the government decides that they're going to,

you know, we need to get, we need to cut down on fat, fat, fatties, then my digital coin will not allow me to buy fatty foods.

I wouldn't be able to go to McDonald's.

I'm using this as an example.

There is not, you know, anything in the works to do this, except this is what programmable means.

They can program it.

So if they say, you know what, nobody's going to work,

you're not an essential employee, your coin will not buy gas.

So you can go to, try to fill up, but when you put your digital card in from the Fed, it will say denied.

And you won't have any way other than that card to be able to buy what you need.

It is absolute control of your life.

Yes,

that is exactly right.

And there actually has been things, statements that have been made by the Biden administration itself where it said as part of its report studying CBDCs and the benefits of it and how it would be designed if it were going to make a CBDC, even though they haven't committed to doing that exactly.

They've done all the groundwork for it.

They've said flat out that a CBDC needs to account for climate change it needs to have financial inclusion built into it it needs to have equity built into it it needs to have concerns about pollution built into it they have worked with hundreds of stakeholders and we all know what that means non-profit groups and labor organizations and others

who help design the CBDC so why are they doing all that because it's going to be programmed so that you can use it in certain ways so that it can be prohibited in other ways, and it can change on a dime.

See, that's the other important thing.

It's not when it's programmable, they can change the rules whenever they want.

It's not as though they set the rules at the beginning and that's the rules forever.

They can change the rules as they go.

That's the threat of a programmable currency.

So it is a huge threat to liberty.

And all they will concentrate on is the one fact, and mark my words.

This way it's going to happen.

We're going to have a banking collapse.

Because there's a banking collapse, that will cause the dollar to skyrocket in inflation, possibly hyperinflation, because

you won't be able to have a supply chain anymore.

So many people will be unemployed.

There's so much money awash that if you want to buy something, well, you got $100.

Yeah, I'll buy that for $100.

And it might be something that was worth $4

before the collapse.

And people will pay it.

Hyperinflation will go crazy.

The Fed will say, Look, we got to stop this.

Inflation is too much.

We're going to give you a digital currency.

It's already in a bank with your name.

All you have to do is sign in, and it will give you the money, and that's what's going to control inflation.

How do we know this?

Because we wrote about it in arguing, I believe it was in Arguing with Socialists,

a chapter that we almost didn't put in on modern monetary theory.

And modern monetary theory is what we're operating on.

We can spend as much money as you want.

Don't worry about inflation.

If they have digital control of everyone's spending.

Right, exactly right.

We talked about it both in arguing with socialists and the great reset.

It's a huge part of

both socialist plans and great reset elites' plans, and those are not necessarily the same groups.

But there's no doubt about it, that that's the goal.

So why

are there twenty some odd states in the United States right now?

Many of them are Red States, Texas, Kentucky, Arizona, Oklahoma, North Dakota, Missouri, Montana, Arkansas, et cetera.

Why are they all doing whatever they possibly can on the UCC code, updating it, to make it at least a little bit easier for a CBDC to be utilized in the future when a CBDC doesn't even exist yet?

Why would they be doing that?

That is a really, really important question.

But

it's much worse than everything that we've said so far.

And that's that having worked with these lawmakers across the country, we've started to discover things in the UCC, in the commercial code, that are incredibly, incredibly disturbing, things that most of us just didn't realize were true.

And if CBDCs happen,

we're in for a world of hurt that we didn't see coming.

And the reason for that is because under commercial code, when you take money, like if you have cash right now under the current code, and you go to the bank and you put money in the bank, that money is no longer your money.

That money actually now is owned by the bank.

Hang on just a second.

This is why you, and this changed, this part of this changed in 2008.

You are the lender of

last resort, right?

You are the last person in line to get money if you have deposited into the bank because the bank, when you give them that money and deposit it, they are then taking that money.

They don't have to ask for permission to loan it out.

They take that money as theirs and they loan it out.

So

what happens to your money?

Well, you don't have money.

What you have is a number in the bank that the bank can now give back to you.

Or if they go belly up well then you lose your money because it wasn't yours anyway correct yes it's not your money it's owned by the bank now now you can go to the bank and say I want my money back and then they hand you the money back in cash and you can walk out the door and that money is yours you own that money but here's the thing about a central bank digital currency and this is what we're beginning to learn how the commercial code deals with that when you you can't put central bank digital dollars okay a digital fed coin you can't put that in your pocket and walk out the door, can you?

It has to be somewhere.

It can't be in your actual possession.

And because that's a good Bitcoin, you can put on a thumb drive, and so you can walk away with it.

Yes.

But digital currency, central bank, no?

Correct.

They're not going to design it so that you can put it into a hard drive or something like that.

But even if they did,

and that's why they're updating the uniform commercial code the way they are.

They're putting rules into place so that you could use a CBDC even if it is possible to download it onto a hard drive or something like that.

But the lawyers behind the uniform commercial code acknowledge in their various meetings and comments and other things that it is highly unlikely that a CBDC would ever be designed in that way.

It's not, you're going to have to put it into some kind of account.

So what does that mean?

What it means in effect is that all of the money, all of the CBDC money that exists in society will be be owned by whoever owns the account, which means the Fed or the bank or whoever is designated by the federal government to operate that system.

But you, the individual person, will not own any money.

The money will belong to someone else.

It will not belong to you.

You will not own it.

Under the commercial code as it is written right now, forget about what they're revising it to.

Under it right now, you would not own any money.

It would all belong to someone else.

So forget about whether it's it's programmable from a design perspective.

In practice, it's not going to be your money anyway.

And so how can you not think

of that famous article for the World Economic Forum we've talked about a thousand times, in the future you will own nothing and you'll have no privacy.

Well it seems like that is exactly what the purpose of this is.

So it is not enough to simply kill the UCC bill updates that we're talking about all across the country.

That is essential, but we need to do more than that.

We need to rewrite that code so that CBDCs cannot be used in a variety of other contexts as well.

All right, stand by.

Stand by.

I think that

we have to really, truly

get down to a basic line here that you have to do in your own state.

And I'm not sure, and I want to talk to Justin, that the UCC code is enough.

And we'll talk about about that here in just 60 seconds.

Some people have a hard time falling asleep.

I have a hard time falling asleep.

And what, three times in the last seven days, probably, I took relief factor sleep.

It works wonders for me.

When you don't get your sleep, you fall asleep in meetings.

Ah, that's really good.

When you don't get your sleep, you're not performing at your best.

Relief factor sleep is 100% drug-free.

It's a blend of natural ingredients and it promotes healthy sleep by reducing anxiety and distress and improving mood, promoting relaxation.

My wife and I were in Costco yesterday and we were loading up on, you know, just different medicines and things like that.

And

I said, honey, because Rafe used to take melatonin.

I said, you want to get some extra melatonin?

She said, no, it doesn't work.

Relief sleep is much better.

And it's true.

If it doesn't work work for you, this is the same kind of thing as melatonin, except it's better and is all 100% natural ingredients.

So unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800 the number four relief.

800, the number four relief.

Do it now or go to relieffactor.com.

Read all about it.

Try it.

It is really remarkable and you are left refreshed.

You don't feel it in your system at all.

Dream big, sleep tight, relief factor sleep at relieffactor.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

All right.

Justin,

we have been talking about the UCC code, and we've been telling people not to allow it to pass.

Now you've been working with

legislatures all over the country, and these legislators are telling you, no, there's much more to the the code.

We have to change it.

Would it be better just to go for states passing law that CBDCs cannot be used for commerce?

So it's a really complicated question because there are all sorts of issues related to the Constitution and who has the authority to regulate money and whether or not a state can even pass a law that outright rejects the use of an established form of money at the federal level because it's a federal responsibility to coin money.

Of course, there are people who say, well, yeah, but coining money means physical money, not digital money.

And so maybe they are allowed to do it.

And so I think there's a lot of open questions about that that we don't necessarily know.

I think that the

most effective thing that legislators can do, and legislators actually do not know a lot of the things that I've told you today.

I've known that from a lot of UCC lawyers, actually.

But what they need to do is they need to focus first, in my opinion, I think Americans would be much better off if lawmakers killed the UCC bills.

Okay?

If they killed the UCC bills, to update them right now, they would be much better off.

But then they also need to update the UCC and all other state laws that they can possibly find in ways that would make it so that a central bank digital currency is undermined in the state in financial transactions.

For example, can you use a CBDC, a programmable digital currency, when you're using for collateral in a loan, let's say?

Right.

Okay?

State laws dictate some of that.

And they can undermine that.

They can do things like that to undermine the use of a CBDC.

And I think that's what they have to do.

More in a second.

Stand by.

The Glenn Beck program.

When it comes to doing business with somebody, there are two kinds of trust that you have to worry about.

You need to be able to trust the person is honest.

That's a baseline.

But you also need to be able to trust that he or she knows what they're doing.

Character and competency.

Those are the two key ingredients.

Without them, you're in peril, no matter what it is.

One of the places where this matters most is financially with real estate.

Your home.

Buying and selling of a home is a really big deal.

And too many of us don't know what we're looking for in a real estate agent.

We want somebody with a real plan.

We want somebody that is not, it's just not cookie cutter.

We want somebody who knows the market, knows how to price it, to move it without undercutting it.

Somebody that can get the best price for you because, again, they know the market on the seller's side as well as the buyer's side.

The Great Reset was just the beginning.

At important meetings in 2021 and 2022, powerful leaders from government, finance, media, and business who support the World Economic Forum's plan for a great reset of capitalism launched a new call to action titled The Great Narrative.

The Great Narrative campaign

seeks to use the decay of traditional values throughout the West and the new and future advancements in technology, including in the areas of artificial intelligence, automation, the metaverse, robotics, and more, to seize control of economies and societies in North America and Europe.

The elites behind these proposals even plan to impact the way people across cultures and the planet understand what it means to be human and have free will.

According to the leaders of the great reset and great narrative movements, by the year 2030 your world will be fundamentally transformed.

In this new book,

We are going to outline all of the dangers and the opportunities associated with the disruptions that are coming and provide a plan to protect you and your family from losing liberty.

How you decide, what the world decides to do with the information in this book, will decide a lot.

How free people of the world react to the challenges that we're going to show you in this book will change the course for generations to come.

What will be the future of humankind,

and which side will you be on?

The new book

is called

Dark Future.

It's book two of the

series in the Great Reset series, Dark Future, Uncovering the Great Reset's Terrifying New Phase.

or next phase.

You can find this only on Amazon today, but you have to go to Amazon, search Glenn Beck, Dark Future,

and you will be able to be one of the first to order it.

It's kind of almost behind the scenes at this point because I don't know if you do this, but like when I'm looking for the latest book from an author, I'll just search the name and then just click on the name.

It's not there.

It's not even there yet.

So if you want to be kind of, you can get, you know, kind of pull one right off the line as they're getting printed, this is the way to do it.

And the published date, the release date will be July 11th, 2023.

But there will be hopefully a chance for you to get it before that.

We'll give you all the details

as we get closer.

But if you want to order it, you can do it now on Amazon only.

Dark Future by Glenn Beck and Justin Haskins.

Justin.

This is the longest, most in-depth book I've ever done.

And you and

your team, remarkable on footnoting and finding the stories.

We had a really hard time because we had to put this to bed,

what, a month ago?

Yeah.

Three weeks ago, something like that.

And there's stuff that even from one version to the next, a lot of that stuff was already outdated.

It was like, oh, no, it's worse than that now because they just did this.

This is a really difficult book to to write, but it's 465 pages and a lot of that, more footnotes than we've ever done before in any book.

Yeah, there's something, it's well over a thousand footnotes.

To put it in perspective, for those who read The Great Reset and really liked The Great Reset and appreciated how much research we put into that, this book is basically one and a half times that book in terms of the length.

And then in terms of the footnotes, it's twice, I I think it's more than twice as many footnotes.

And in this book,

we cover, I mean, really, this is the summation of your whole career covering futurism.

And then all of the work we've been doing on the Great Reset and

Davos and ESG and all of that, how those two things interact, and how that's going to transform your world going forward, how it's going to fundamentally change everything about your life in every single way imaginable, tying all that stuff together in a way that people can understand.

Because, you know, it's really hard to understand how cryptocurrencies work or how AI works.

Or when I was doing research for this book, because I'm not, you know, you're a futurist, Glenn, okay?

You've been covering this for a long time.

I'm not.

So when I was doing research for this book, I remember thinking, all right, I'm going to bone up on AI.

I'm going to learn all about AI.

And then as I started reading about AI, I said, you know what?

I need to, I think, understand algorithms first.

Then I said, you know what?

I really need to know how does a computer work?

What is even a computer anyway?

What does it do?

This is, you know, I tell you, it is so, it's so great because I have been watching technology since the early 90s and I've got into AI and

all of it back around 95.

And so I have the building blocks.

I know when we've sat in the meeting and I'm like, okay, we got to research this, this, this, this, this, this, this.

And you wrote them down and I could see your eyes were crossed a little bit.

Like, I don't even know what that is.

I'm not

sure.

Yeah, but you know what?

I actually think that worked really well.

I did.

Because the two of us, we come from it at totally different, totally different perspectives.

But I think that helps because a lot of the people who are going to read this book don't know what AI is really either.

They don't know how cryptocurrencies or digital currencies or any of these things, they don't necessarily know how that works either.

And so by having both of those perspectives, we're able to put this thing together in a way that anyone is going to be able to pick up and read and understand.

And I got to tell you, it is the most terrifying.

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the most terrifying thing that I have, I mean, seriously, there were nights I could not sleep over some of the stuff that is in this book.

Stuff that I have never heard of, stuff that only the sort of

most

elite types are talking about is in this book covered in a way that no one, that the vast majority of people in America have never heard of.

And

we are not only breaking it down in a digestible way, but we're showing you how it's going to impact every part of your life.

This isn't theoretical.

Every part of your life is going to change.

Right.

And this is the culmination.

Everything I told you about in 2008.

And I said, it's going to look like this, it's going to be this, and these people are going to be, you know, working, et cetera, et cetera.

I didn't know what I was describing, but I'm describing, I was describing at the time this.

This is the culmination of everything that I told you I thought was coming.

This is, this is it.

This is it.

And it, and it is so essential that you understand it.

One of the most terrifying

things in it, and the reason, I mean, we really had a hard time naming this book.

And the reason why Dark Future

worked so much for me was,

you know, the Yaval Harari stuff in the book is terrifying.

This is guy that everyone on the left, presidents, Barack Obama talked about him, Bill Clinton talks about him, he's partners with the World Economic Forum.

And he literally says things like, you know, there's a lot of useless people on this planet, and we have to figure out what are we going to do with them.

and he is a well-connected well-respected this guy is so dangerous in this context uh that it's it's terrifying and you have to be aware because I'll tell you we wanted this book out in in January and we just couldn't get it done because it was such a massive undertaking

so it's out in July but

you have to get this information because you will understand the world as it starts to fly apart and come at you.

And you will see the mirrors and the tricks that they are working on people.

You'll know where they're going.

So you'll be able to see the news in the day and go, oh, okay, all right, closer to that, closer to that, got it.

And you'll be able to prioritize what is truly important.

And

free will and what it means to be human.

they are redefining right now.

Yeah, that's

important.

Yeah, it was amazing to see, in the same way that it was amazing we were doing research for the Great Reset, how open so many people were talking about this at highest levels of government and NGOs, the World Economic Forum, they're just talking about resetting the global economy.

In that same way, it was shocking how many world leaders and powerful people and heads of big tech companies and others are openly talking about how they're going to create a second evolution for humanity, how they're going to rewrite the genetic code, how they're going to redesign your future, how they're going to create a new blueprint for humanity.

These are all quotes.

These are all things that they're actually saying to each other in big, elaborate conferences like at Davos and elsewhere, World Government Summit and other places, where they're openly talking about how they're going to design every aspect of technology going forward, and it's already started, so that it has embedded within it social credit scoring ideas, ESG ideas, wokeism, things that elites favor, so that the future resembles what they want it to resemble.

And so they are literally designing your future right now.

And the vast majority of people have no idea that it's happening.

They have no say in it at all.

And one day they're just going to wake up and all of a sudden everything is going to be absolutely, completely different.

They will have no power or control over their lives, and they will not understand why if they have not read this book, and they will not be able to prepare for it and prevent it from happening if they have not read this book, because there is literally nothing out there right now at all that ties all of this stuff together in the way that this book does.

So, Justin,

somebody said that

you and I with this book and the radio program and

shoot, what's his name over in England the comedian actor that's all on the Great Reset yeah Russell Brand that it's the three of us that have made the world awake

to the Great Reset and what they're doing I find that absolutely incredible and there is nothing like this book in Europe and I don't know how to get Europeans to pay attention but there's nobody you can't do a show like this in Europe

Europe, Canada, the entire Western world needs to read this information because nobody's printing it.

Nobody's printing it.

Yeah.

Well, in Europe, they've designed the, they've already gotten to the point in Europe, and they're trying to do that in America, but they've already reached that point in Europe where the institutions are so powerful and so in bed with these ideas.

And they don't have the same kinds of constitutional protections for individuals in many of those countries as they do here.

So these institutions are able to just stamp out any ideas that they don't like.

And of course they don't like it when people are talking about how elites are redesigning the future.

But this affects the whole world.

It affects all of us.

And that's another incredible thing that we talk about in the book is we spend a lot of time talking about the national fascists, of China and Russia and countries like that and how they're going in the polar opposite direction in a very negative way and how

we have to chart this course in between the international fascism of the great reset and the great narrative and this dark future and the national fascist authoritarians of Russia and China and countries like that.

And walking that middle line is so difficult to do, but we have to do it or else freedom will die one way or the other.

Okay, Justin, thank you so much.

We'll talk about this some more as

we reveal more about the book.

The name of the book is Dark Future.

It's book number two in the Great Reset.

You know, now might be one of those times.

You know,

what are you going to do?

How are you going to protect your family?

What are you doing with your credit card debt?

Glenn Beck.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

We're glad you're here.

In case you missed it, the name of the new book is Dark Future.

You know, kind of a, I thought it was a pick-me-up, kind of, you know, bathroom reader.

It's

part of the Great Reset series,

and it is Dark Future uncovering the Great Reset's

terrifying next phase.

And you can only get it on Amazon today.

We'll officially be launching it soon, but you have to go actually up into the search bar and type in Glenbeck Dark Future, and

it will come up.

Be one of the first to get it.

All right, when we come back, we have the guy who started and was the CEO

and I think chairman of the board of Home Depot.

Guy is amazing, amazing.

A guy who who is now 93 years old and still rocking on to talk about capitalism and the banking situation in America.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together as a corner survivor.

Stand up the sand and hold the light.

It's a new day, our time to rise.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

I'm so excited and honored to have

the Home Depot co-founder, Bernie Marcus,

on.

You'll understand when I introduce him here in a second.

We want to talk about capitalism, what's happening in our country, the banks, wokeism.

Bernie Marcus, co-founder of the Home Depot, joins me in 60 seconds.

These days, it,

you know, might be easy to think of the American economy kind of like being

Joe Biden going up a flight of stairs.

It's not really good.

I'm not sure he's going to make it all the way up the stairs every time he's walking onto the plane.

But right now, you need to consider what is happening and all of the things, especially if you missed today's podcast.

In hour number one, I told you

what the Fed is doing with their Fed now.

This is just the groundwork to

put the Fed in charge of your entire life.

It's extraordinarily dangerous.

And it's coming because of inflation.

We are spending way too much money.

Fed is just printing money.

Please consider gold or silver as part of whatever it is you have.

You should have several different things depending on what you can afford, but you shouldn't have your money all in one thing because God only knows what anything's going to be worth when we really hit the bumps that are coming.

Goldline is offering a special in their $5 Gold Indian and $5 gold Liberty coins this week.

With every roll or box of 20 of each item that you own, you'll receive 100 of the one-ounce copper Mayflower rounds at no charge.

Just as a thank you, please.

Just find out if it's right for you.

It's goldline.com.

Call them now.

They're waiting for you at 866 Goldline.

866 Goldline.

I don't think, I mean, usually I introduce somebody and I'll say, hey, he's the co-founder of Home Depot.

But this man's accomplishments are just astounding.

By the time he was 15,

he had already held more than a dozen jobs.

He had joined a gang, worked as a hypnotist in the Cat Skills.

He's a son of a cabinet maker and garment worker.

His dad survived the triangle shirtwaist factory fire, which is incredible in and of itself.

He became somebody who is well known what he did.

He is the guy who co-founded Home Depot.

Things were so bad the first day on opening day that his wife said, you're not shaving.

Because she said, I don't want a razor anywhere near your throat.

From there, they've gone to 500,000 associates, 2,300 stores.

And this is a guy that was a son of a Russian immigrant who just believed in the United States being that golden land.

He has since retired from Home Depot, and he and his wife, Billy, started the Marcus Foundation.

They have given more than $2 billion in grants.

They're both strong believers in

helping out as much as you possibly can.

The Marcus Marcus Institute has programs for children with disorders of the brain.

They also have the Autism Center, which offers expanded services for children with autism.

He has founded or funded the Grady Health System for the Marcus Stroke and Neuroscience Center, the Marcus Trauma Center, the Piedmont Heart Institute.

He established the nation's first heart valve reference center.

MDA out of Israel, he partnered with them to build a critically needed new national blood center in Israel.

He created Project SHARE to ensure that the members of the military and veterans get diagnosed and cared for without any financial constraint by underwriting the housing, transportation, and care costs of any military personnel with brain or spinal injuries who are sent to Shepherd Hospital.

He founded the Nanotechnology Research Center building at Georgia Institute of Technology.

He's the guy who's responsible.

He and his wife created the Georgia Aquarium.

It's the largest aquarium in the world, 60 exhibits, 550,000 square feet, 10 million gallons of water, 125,000 animals, and it's the world's only aquarium and vet medicine teaching hospital in the world.

He funded and created the Jobs Creator Network, a group of current retired CEOs and entrepreneurs who have come together to preserve the free enterprise system during the pandemic.

He granted money to study the effects of high doses of vitamin C.

Also, for those who have issues that prevent the use of hydroxychloroquine, he created a clinical trial for blood tests for corona-19 antibodies.

He supported two hospitals that opened floors specifically for the coronavirus patients.

His job creators network was instrumental in securing funding for small and medium-sized business.

He was also, he and his wife Billy, one of the first to sign the giving pledge.

My gosh.

Oh, and he has a new book out.

He came out last year, Kick Up Some Dust, lessons on thinking big, giving back, and doing it yourself.

What an honor to welcome Bernie Marcus onto the program.

Hi, Bernie.

God, Glenn, I'm worn out just listening to you on the introduction.

Yeah, I mean,

that's an incredible life.

An incredible life.

Wow.

Thank you.

Well,

well, look, you know, you put on this earth for a very short time, and you're hoping that you're going to do the best you can.

And God willing, you're able to do it.

Now, we grew up very poor.

My parents were Russian immigrants.

We lived in a fourth floor tenement in Newark, New Jersey.

And to to say we were poor would be an understatement.

We virtually had nothing.

And in those days, they didn't have the umbrella.

You didn't have food stamps.

They didn't give out

cell phones to people.

We just made it.

My father didn't,

and he was a lousy businessman, a great carpenter.

but not a good businessman.

If he didn't make any money, we didn't eat.

And it was as simple as that.

But one thing we had, we had the family and we had the love in the family.

And my mother, who really ran the family, you know, believed in America and she thought this is the golden land.

And she kept saying to me, no matter what you want to be, you can be it in America.

This is the golden land.

And she was 100% right.

And she said, if you work hard and you keep focused and you don't let the

bad problems affect you and knock you down, if you keep going, that you will be successful or whatever you want to be.

She said, you could be the president of the United States.

Although, why, Glenn, why would I want to do that?

No, not to.

Yeah, I know.

God, I know.

What Trump is going through is unbelievable.

I am just like you.

I am so worried about

freedom and the free market, the ability to think and become.

It's all going away so quickly, and it just seems like America is asleep or they don't realize that it won't always be like it was.

You know, I think people have this, ah, well, these things happen.

And, you know, no, we're on the verge of losing everything that our founders worked for and people like you built over the last 250 years.

Well, I'm sorry to say that you're probably right.

You know, I'm 93 years old and I've lived through so many administrations,

Republican, Democrat, and

I never thought that the world could change so quickly in two years.

Biden got into office and he is extreme,

extreme in

every way you could think of.

And I'm a great believer in the capitalist system.

I think capitalism built America,

made us the strongest land

country in the world.

That's why people have come across the border.

They want to come here and they want to have their own American dream.

It's the only place.

You can't have it in India, China, or Russia, or you know, Venezuela, even Europe, or the UK or anywhere.

And

you can have it here

as long as you believe in

what you're doing and work hard, but that's not the case anymore.

I was going to say,

is it true?

Because could you start Home Depot today

like you did

back when you started it?

I don't think so, Glenn.

And I think the reason is

they have so many obstacles for small businesses.

We're a small business and uh that's why I started Job Creators Network to protect small businesses because I know it's the backbone of America.

You know, 70%,

uh about 70 million people work in small businesses.

I mean I'm talking about the pizza shop, the cleaning store, the drug store.

These are all small businesses.

And

we never had the re the the regulations that they have today.

And what he's trying to do, and I'm talking about Biden now, and a Democratic Congress, they want to pass laws that raise taxes, that'll knock out half the Americans, half the small businesses in America.

They're not going to survive.

They can't survive now.

They're barely making it now because they can't find people that want to work.

I mean, think about about this in America.

You can't find people that want to work.

And it's amazing, you know, why would people work when they, in some cases, with

two in a family and maybe a couple of kids, you can make 80,000, 90 million, $90,000 a year sitting on your rear end on a home and not working.

So

the American dream is starting to fade.

And

it's shameful.

and kids coming out of college that are being taught these woke policies believe in socialism

and they did a survey I think they were 35%

believe that socialism is better than capitalism and let me tell you something capitalism is what made the Home Depot If we weren't able to sell stock on the street, because

when we opened the store, I'm talking about the first Home Depot store, we were terribly undercapitalized.

And the only thing that kept us alive was being able to go to the capital markets and raise money.

And we did that.

And today, you know, Home Depot is, you know,

$100 billion in sales plus

500,000 associates in the United States, in Mexico, in Canada, in Guam, and in Hawaii, and is a very profitable company.

But if you look at what they're trying to do

with this ESG,

which is, you know,

they're now doing it with the finance

institutions and

with the investment funds,

we're going to destroy America.

They're killing off the goose, and I don't get it.

Why would they want to do this?

That's, I think, why so many people

don't understand, or don't accept

anything as a plan.

They just think maybe this is incompetence.

But there's too much that has happened for

anybody's batting average to be that bad unless it's intentional.

And what they're doing is resetting capitalism.

They're resetting it to

a stakeholder capitalism.

And the stakeholders are the businesses, the community leaders, if you will,

and the government.

And they're directing us into this new system

and destroying the value of our dollar to be able to reset into something that they have more control over.

It's something that, you know, I don't think people really,

you know, most people

are not evil.

Most people aren't really even bad.

So when they see somebody who's doing something that is really bad or evil, they have a hard time accepting it because they'd be like, why?

People don't do that.

Why would they do that?

But power and money and greed, powerful.

Yeah,

I think that many people, I'm talking about

the American people today,

are really thinking with their hearts,

but they're not thinking with their brains.

Look at this inflation, what it's doing to this country and what it's doing to the middle class and lower class is just outrageous.

People can't afford to put meat on the table, eggs, or the simple things because of inflation, and it's all manufactured by the policies of Biden.

It didn't come out of nowhere.

It didn't just happen.

This was done purposely.

Now,

does he want to bring down this country?

I don't know.

He's doing a hell of a good job of it.

We're talking to Bernie Marcus, the Marcus Foundation chairman and the co-founder of Home Depot.

I want to talk to you a little bit about the banking system and the belief in capitalism.

How does somebody who was born, you know,

at, you know, on September 11th, even, they have not seen what capitalism in a free market really is.

They've seen the crony capitalism, and they're in their 20s now.

So

how do we reverse this?

We'll continue our conversation in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about pre-born.

If the left spent just a fraction of the time fighting for good causes, as they do fighting to maintain the institution of abortion and celebrating abortion, I mean, most Americans don't even want to think about it, but most Americans would say, you know, safe, legal, and rare.

Though that's so far gone in the rearview mirror, it is now celebrate.

We have partnered with the Ministry of Pre-Born to help rescue thousands of babies this year alone from that exact fate of a mom apparently celebrating.

I don't believe it.

I think most of these mothers feel trapped.

They don't feel like they have any other choice.

But Pre-Born is there.

These women's centers are fantastic and they provide a free ultrasound to expecting mothers.

Once a mom sees the baby on the screen and hears the heartbeat, she is so much more likely to choose life.

And it's not just about the baby, it's about the mom too.

They'll take care of the mom and the baby and clothing and books and everything

for two years.

It's an amazing organization.

Would you join me?

10 Second Station ID.

Bernie Marcus.

Bernie, how long has it been since we've been in an actual free market?

Because people, the youth today, they have no idea.

They see capitalism as something that is just enriching really, really rich people and really corrupt partners in Congress

or in the White House.

Well,

you only have to go back two years.

You know, when Trump was president,

you know, a lot of people hate Trump.

I mean, really hate him, not because of his policies, but his policies brought about a period of time when everybody

was in good shape.

The poor, the middle class,

the minorities had

more minorities working than any time in the history of this country.

Inflation was

1.5% or something.

And

all,

they say all ships rise well everybody was making money everybody was doing better

uh all the things were happening they were good and then covet came along and it killed it killed the trump administration and i think it killed his uh his uh his ability to get re-elected that plus ill-advised things that he said but his policies were terrific and so capitalism was flourishing during this period of time.

The stock market was flying.

People were making a lot of money in their

401ks.

And

everything looked really good.

And Biden came in, and it was like you took a cloak and you just put it over the economy.

And from that day on, inflation started to rise.

He

started to spend more money than we have, much

more,

and

in frivolous places.

And of course, we saw inflation starting to go up and the cost of energy killed everybody and killed the entire supply line.

And I don't know, I don't know.

The American people, aren't you feeling it?

Don't you feel it every time you go to a supermarket or you you pay your rent and your rent is up dramatically?

The American people,

I've always had faith in them.

I hope that they wake up and understand that they can't afford these policies anymore and vote the people out of office

that brought it to them.

I would love to continue our conversation.

You're the only 93-year-old that probably has limited time

in his schedule.

If you can stay another 15 minutes, I would like that.

Just talk to our producers off-air, ask him.

Bernie Marcus, the Home Depot co-founder, he is very outspoken on what's going on with the banks, and we're going to talk to him.

By the way, he's 93.

Compare him to the president.

The Glenn Beck program.

All right, Jerry wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.

She says, I listened to Glenn Beck rave about this product for years, and then I finally decided to try it.

The trial bag was was more than enough to see the results I needed to continue purchasing more.

My 12-year-old dog is playing and running again.

I could tell the difference after the second feeding.

It's wonderful.

Magical, nutritionist stuff, nutritional stuff.

No buyer's remorse here.

Jerry, thank you so much for writing in.

I don't know if it was, I noticed in the first couple of feedings that Uno ate and wolfed it down.

I think in the first couple of days, I saw a difference in Uno as well.

You just wait.

Wait until you just watch over the next few months.

It's crazy.

Rough Greens wants you to try it with your dog, and they don't want you out any money if your dog doesn't like it.

So you get the first bag free, Rough Greens, R-U-F-F Greens.com/slash Beck.

They'll give you the first bag free, you just pay for shipping.

And then if your dog eats it, just watch the changes.

We are with Bernie Marcus.

He is the Marcus Foundation chairman and also the co-founder of the Home Depot.

He has been quite outspoken on what's happening with the banking system and capitalism.

And I've just got a few more minutes with him.

He's 93 years old.

He's the age my father would be if my father were still alive.

And I have two ways to go.

I can ask him about the news,

but I miss my father's wisdom of a long-lived life and perspective.

So if Bernie doesn't mind, I'd just like to ask you some

more philosophical questions, Bernie.

Do you mind?

Sure, sure.

You know, we,

you, you grew up, uh, Depression, World War II.

You have seen the Cuban Missile Crisis.

You have lived through the 60s, where we had huge public figures for a decade that were just shot in broad daylight and killed and assassinated.

We had the,

you know, drug-free thing, you know, the free drugs and free love and the hippies and the communists and 9-11 and everything else.

And America always

battles and gets back to where she was and better.

Is this any different than things that we've seen before all throughout your lifetime?

Yeah, I've never seen anything like it.

And

I never realized, I mean, I could sit back and say, what in God's name happened?

How did it change so quickly?

And how did the American people

become dumbed down?

I mean, think about what we're doing with the education system.

We're dumbing down the kids.

We don't want the kids to know math.

We don't want to be able to read.

Many kids go to college, can't read, don't understand math, but they're still accepted because it's the right thing to do.

It's equity.

It's, you know, it's

diversity.

But we're dumbing down a whole whole society and we're going to pay the bills.

Well, I will tell you that the amount of money that they have spent in this and Trump is no better.

He spent a lot of money, but nothing like what Biden is going through.

No, a budget.

His budget is $6.8 trillion

for this year.

That's insanity.

Yeah,

he doesn't seem to have any limit.

And the American people have to understand that every time you borrow, you you give out money to all these programs that he believes in, that somewhere you have to pay for it.

And and all of this we pay interest on, and the interest is at the highest level we've ever had, so that for years to come now, I mean for years,

uh I'm ninety three, I won't be here, but other people and their children, their grandchildren are going to have to pay for this debt that they're spending frivolously.

And I think it's just a bad policy.

Glenn, I'd like to for one second to go back to my book, Kick Up Some Dust.

I think that all the policies I believe in, the capitalist system and how people can

give to charity and make money and get involved with charity and give money away,

all these institutions today,

the universities that we have that are all

playing woke

and fighting capitalism

are all founded on capitalism.

If you walk through the universities, you see the names of all the capital, all the people that contributed money.

They're all capitalists.

And they're trying to destroy everything that came up in America.

And I just hope and pray that the American people have enough sense to vote these people out who have done these policies and bring back good government,

some restraint.

My God, we need to restrain Congress.

They got to stop spending money the way they do.

It just can't keep going on because they're going to bury this country.

Well, how long would you have been in business if you didn't have a budget for 12 years, 14 years?

Well, not only not been in business, if we didn't make money and think about it, this thing, this ESG that they're talking about, of you know, having climate change and diversity being the policies of a company,

our policy was how do you make money?

Be if you don't ha make money, you can't hire people.

If you can't hire people, you can't put them to work.

That's capitalism.

Putting people to work.

Work is the best thing that could happen to anybody.

And when people work, they become very productive.

And so you have to keep making money.

You can't run it based on climate change.

My God, I mean, we thought about climate change.

We were concerned about

the environment.

But we did it within the confines of making money at the Home Depot.

And if you didn't make money, you don't sell stock.

And if you don't sell stock, you don't have money to refinance whatever you want to do.

But capitalism is the basis of it.

Capitalism is

capitalism is the best way to run a charity.

If you can do what you did, get rich,

and then choose to spend some of your money, or heck, if you wanted to, all of your money on charitable ventures, that's the best thing.

It's the easiest way and

the way to raise the most amount of money is through capitalism.

There's no doubt about it.

I mean, I think about the things that I did in Atlanta, what the Marcus Foundation did.

Take Atlanta, and I'm not going to take about the national things or the international things.

But the

Grady Hospital was the most important urban hospital in Atlanta.

They were going broke.

And we invested tens of millions of dollars, built the Marcus Emergency Center, the trauma center, the stroke center,

saving lives every year.

I mean, I can't the government can't do that.

They don't know how to do it.

What does it mean?

Look at the way the VA operates.

It's a disaster.

What does it mean if Biden gets his way and he puts a 25%

tax on individuals like you?

Well, he'll kill off America.

I can't even believe that the Democrats would go along with that.

This is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.

And how does that kill off America?

Well, because people will have to sell their assets in order to pay the taxes.

If you had a stock, if you have a farm, and that farm was worth zero, and all of a sudden, when you bought it, it was worth a couple of hundred dollars, and you spent 20 or 30 years or 40 years building up that farm to where it's now worth, let's say, $5 million.

That's the value of it.

They want to tax that.

Well, most people,

where are they going to get the money to pay the taxes?

Right.

Because it's an unrealized

asset.

It's an unrealized game

yeah they have to sell the asset so you're going to find people selling off their assets well in my case i would have to sell off home depot stock which is where i put most of my charity two billion dollars already in medical research uh where we're we're involved with so much research all over the country trying to save lives and we will save lives this is where government is not not involved.

I mean, we have something like with Johns Hopkins,

a

simple blood test that's before the FDA now, where they're going to be able to determine that somebody has stage four

prostate cancer or

ovarian cancer or

terrible cancers that you don't usually find until the the fourth stage.

You can find it in the first stage with a very simple blood test.

And our foundation paid for that research.

And when it comes out, it's going to save the lives of, God knows, millions of people.

And there are many things that philanthropists are involved with.

And the philanthropists all have their money based on a capitalist system.

Bernie, not socialism.

Socialism doesn't work.

Let me ask you a final question before we have to let you go.

The loss of America, for people who

have been indoctrinated with it's not a special country,

it's one of the same.

What does the loss of America mean to the average person and to the world?

Well, it's generations

that will not be able to foster, will not be able to build.

You'll find this country will come to a standstill.

Hey, listen, you know what?

Companies like Venezuela, it didn't happen overnight.

You know, these people had a good operation going, and all of a sudden

they're down to the drain.

Cuba,

look at Russia.

What happens is the powerful people take over

and now

run the country based on what they want, not what other people want.

Russia is not a democracy.

China is not a democracy.

You do what they tell you to do.

And this is where we'll end up, the same way we'll have somebody like a president who become a dictator, and you'll lose your freedom.

You won't be able to say what you want to say.

You won't be able to march in the streets and have a peaceful protest.

Those things will be gone.

And people like you, Glenn, they'll shut you up.

We won't be able to have your program.

Let's keep that to ourselves.

Yeah, but

do you think it's going to happen?

No, I know.

I know, Bernie.

I know.

Not going to be a good world.

I know.

So I think that people should start to understand, be happy with

what we have, and just wake up.

Wake up and vote the people out that have brought this where we are and put people in who could take this back to prosperity.

Just have faith in Americans.

Just have faith in your fellow Americans.

Together we can accomplish anything on our own.

That's the secret.

Bernie, I can't thank you enough for spending the time with me.

And

it's rare to be able to talk to a living legend.

And I, I so appreciate your time and everything that you have done, both in business and charity.

Thank you,

all right.

Thanks, Lynn.

God bless you.

Thank you very much.

You bet, bye-bye.

Bernie Marcus, by the way, the name of his book is Kicking Dirt.

Is that what it was?

Yeah, kicking up dust.

It's kicking up dust

by Bernie Marcus.

Wise.

So, are you waking up every day frustrating, frustrated with what you have to face another day of hurting every day

pain is your body's way of letting you know there's something wrong

that's why it's it's really not good to mask the pain most of the pain comes from inflammation that's something wrong in the body you can find ways to mask it but that's bad And it also leaves you strung out, feeling weird.

You don't want to mask it.

The other option is fight it.

That's what I did, and I was finally convinced by my wife to try Relief Factor.

I found out that it worked.

If you're dealing with pain, please take my wife's advice.

Just try it.

Just try it for three weeks.

It's $19.95.

It's a trial pack, not a drug developed by doctors.

Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered it, and about 70% of them go on to order more.

Try Relief Factor now, relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com or call 800 the number for relief.

800 for relief, relief factor.com.

Feel the difference.

888-727 back.

The Glenn Beck program.

Well, Stu, you know,

was, you know,

tried to make friends with New Yorkers by having a,

you know, he's going to jail tree

mailed.

And we were so excited about the violation of just everything that is good, decent, and American

today.

But it doesn't look like they're going to haul Donald Trump in today.

No.

Yeah, it doesn't seem like it.

Well, who knows?

You know, it could happen.

It could happen at any moment.

When you're right, you're right.

People are trying to make their names, and eventually someone will do this because what's the downside for a New York prosecutor, DA?

This is going to happen

all the time with anyone.

Makes him more famous.

When Alvin is running for governor in a few years, we'll all remember.

what he did here.

If this works.

And again, if he doesn't do it, he has no chance, right?

Everyone will remember him on the left as a person who didn't go after Donald Trump and arrest him when they should have.

Again, this is idiotic fan fiction, but it's still the way this world works right now.

It's really amazing.

You know,

the House

wrote a pretty terse letter and said, you're violating

the rules of your office and your oath, and we will be looking into this.

And if we have to, we will be changing laws

based on you being out of control.

It's these Soros people.

I mean,

what do they care?

They don't have to raise money.

They have Soros.

They just do what Soros wants.

I mean,

you know, I feel a little like Jimmy Stewart.

It's Potter.

It's Potter.

Do you want to live in Potterville?

You won't own your own house.

It'll be run down.

It'll be horrible.

It's Potterville.

That's, he is Mr.

Potter from It's a Wonderful Life, George Soros,

and he's buying them all up.

And this is what they're doing.

They're letting criminals go, and he's spending all this time and energy and money in New York on Donald Trump, on a misdemeanor.

I mean, it makes no sense.

No sense.

Especially when you put it in perspective of all of their other policies.

You know, they always talk about wanting more gun laws, but will they ever actually enforce the ones that exist?

No, no.

They let those people go.

They let those people go all the time.

People who have committed rapes and all sorts of horrible, violent felonies get released onto the streets every day in these cities.

But when it comes to, you know, this guy, because he's famous and he's the devil, apparently, you have to go after him for something that at the very least should be, or at the very worst, should be a fine.

That's how the Clinton thing ended.

That's how the Edwards thing was going on at that point.

And he has said he has no intention of doing anything virtual with the president.
