What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenback program.

Well, hello, America.

You know, I thought since it's Monday, we would start very simply with just a quote that I carry around in my heart all the time, and it is this.

Transportation seems maybe like a small deal, but it's a big issue.

You need to get to go and need to be able to get where you need to do and go to work and get home.

Kamala Harris.

I mean,

if I've said it once, I've said it a million times.

She's,

I mean,

she's,

well, she's our vice president.

And

don't think I need to say

much more than that.

Tunnel Twins, Americans, we know freedom is a lot more than just something we enjoy.

It is our way of life and it is slipping through our fingertips right now.

It is so incredibly important that we make sure that the next generation, our kids and grandkids, really know what it is we're having to fight to preserve so they'll have it as well.

The Tunnel Twins have launched a new fully illustrated American history book.

Inspiring, fun, focuses on the stories and principles of our heroes, not just the dates and the events that have occurred.

Well,

we have Stu Bregier joining us again.

Welcome, Stu.

How are you?

Thanks, Glenn.

Glad to be back.

I've heard that

it was warm while I was gone, and that is an international

crisis.

Oh, you

from your lips to somebody's ear

because that is

that's exactly right.

That's exactly right.

It is a climate emergency.

And while the president hasn't declared it yet, we all feel it's coming.

You know what I mean?

It's kind of like climate's not in a transition.

The economy is in a transition, but the climate is in an emergency.

Right.

This is not a transitory warming of the planet, as we may have heard about inflation.

This one will stay here forever.

We've heard

these temperatures are going to last at least until the end of the century, which surprised me.

I honestly had predicted a winter coming soon, but no, they are going to last until the end of the century.

No, no, no.

No.

Now, Stu.

I got to give you an update on

some of these things that we're trying to do to curb the emergency.

First of all, we're all using way too much water.

And water belongs to the state, not to us.

California

has just sent out a letter, the notice of groundwater extraction reporting that is now required under the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act.

So,

people in California, if you have a well,

you're getting a letter that says this notice is to inform you that the state water resources control board believes you own property or properties not covered by the management authority of groundwater groundwater sustainability agency as required under the sustainable groundwater management act.

The state water board considers areas within a high-priority or medium-priority groundwater basin that are not within the jurisdiction of GSA

to be unmanaged under SGMA.

So, here's what you have to do.

If you're pumping groundwater within unmanaged areas, this notice is intended to provide you with early notification so you can take appropriate steps necessary to meet your reporting responsibilities.

Now, I love reporting responsibilities.

I think everybody does, you know, especially when you've bought a piece of property and you have a well,

that's your well,

that's the water you pump up, and I love the reporting responsibilities, but it goes further than just reporting.

This, uh, this, um,

this apparently uh has a base filing fee.

You know, when you, when you find out, what are you, what are my responsibilities?

I love this.

I want to be a responsible citizen in California.

And they're like, well, you have to pay a filing fee of $300 per well.

I mean, we already have your name, we already know you have a well because that's why we that's why we wrote to you and told you, but you need to tell us you have a well, and that's going to cost you $300.

Um, and then

you also have an additional fee of ten dollars per acre foot with a meter and twenty-five per acre foot without a meter.

And if you're tardy, you will get a late fee of 25%

per month.

So.

This is what could possibly go wrong here.

I was at a.

Well, I mean.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

I was at a

restaurant over vacation.

If you ask my scale, I went to several.

But one in particular

showed

the intersection of all of the green stuff with all of the COVID stuff.

And it was this lengthy dissertation on how to wash your hands.

And it started with turn because they wanted you to do two things.

Wash your hands to this ridiculous extent of COVID where they want you to do it for like 10 minutes.

And then also save water.

So it was like, turn the water on, wet your hands, turn the water off, go get soap.

Wash your hands together for 20 seconds.

Turn the water back on.

Rinse your hands.

Turn the water back off.

Shake your hands dry because you don't want to use too many towels or have the power dryer on for too long.

And it went on and on.

It was like legitimately 14 steps on how to wash your hands in this period where we're supposed to spend almost all of our time washing our hands, but none of our time with the water on.

Well, I can't remember.

Sarah, can you remember?

Because Barack knew something

in around 2008 that I just didn't know.

We are going to have to make sacrifices.

We are going to have to change our conversation.

We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.

We're going to have to move into a different place.

And I think we're in a different place where it's a 14-step process to wash your freaking hands.

By the way, back to the water thing.

The state

water resources control board,

I'm not sure how they have the right for eminent domain because that's what's happening.

You own your water.

They are now saying the state owns the water, and the next step is rainwater.

That's what's happening in Colorado.

They just need to make some more money, so you can't just scoop up all that rainwater because the state owns that rainwater.

Now, I'm pretty sure God owns that rainwater, and

it rains equally on everybody.

So, if you want to save it, you can save it.

If not, let the flowers grow.

By the way,

the other really great thing about this is

when you look at this, it says that Californians have to report this themselves,

and you have to start

paying a fee for the water that is being pumped starting February 2023.

And what I think is really great about this is the government wrote the letter, but they don't provide any service, at least for free.

I mean, you have to pay the $300 to let them know that, yes, their letter was right.

You have water.

But then they don't support it.

There is no product.

They don't even do the billing.

That's you.

Okay?

So they don't provide the water.

It's already there.

They don't even bill you for the water.

You have to.

So I think this is

I think this is going to go over big, but that's to protect the planet, as is this.

The federal government of Canada is looking to impose a requirement to reduce nitrous oxide emissions from fertilizers because it's a greenhouse gas that is contributing to climate change.

Now, the Trudeau government says they want a 30% reduction in emissions from farms, not the fertilizer.

Farm producers groups say at this point reducing nitrous oxide emissions can't be done without reducing the fertilizer use.

But they're saying we just need a 30%,

just 30% cut, so just cut it someplace.

And they're like,

well, we don't use nitrous oxide in anything but fertilizer.

Several provincial governments in Canada now and organizations representing farmers have asked for emission reductions from fertilizer to be measured via intensity, meaning how much food is being produced

in comparison to the amount of fertilizer used.

And Trudeau has said, that sounds totally re-no, I'm sorry, that's no, that's what I said, that's totally reasonable.

They are demanding an absolute reduction in emissions.

Farmers are telling the government now in Canada that that's going to result in a lot less food being produced.

And we're kind of on the edge with that right now.

Oh, and that reminds me, net zero is breaking the energy market in

Australia.

I guess they're having gas prices.

Is the Putin gas hike there too?

Must be.

My gosh, it's everywhere.

Anyway, anyway, the

the energy market is tubing in Australia there as well because the government is basically threatening people with ESG.

And

the net zero thing is

really working out well for them.

The literal doubling of electricity prices is...

is happening in Australia now, so they've just doubled the price of electricity.

And, you know, it's just for customers, you know, in small towns or small electricity retailers, you know.

But

they say that net zero by 2050 will require $120 trillion

in Australian money.

But remember, that's Australian money.

So those numbers always seem crazy.

That's just $86.25 trillion in the U.S.

dollar.

So it's

much more reasonable.

Yeah, yeah.

And that's just equivalent.

That's just equivalent to

$369,000 for a household of four and an annual cost of $13,200 per person,

but just over the next 28 years.

And once we pay that,

that won't increase.

That won't make things better, right?

Like this isn't something that's going to get us a lot more electricity and all this innovation.

That's just going to continue what we currently have, but with new green energy options, right?

Well, no, we're shutting everything else down.

Okay.

Well, I mean, I can't say we're saying everything.

The West is shutting everything down.

I mean, for instance, Australia has to, you know, cut their carbon emissions, and they can't, they're just not going to be doing any of the coal-fire

plants.

Well, they are going to be doing coal-fire plants, but it won't be Australian emissions.

China has 57 coal-fire stations

for every single one in Australia.

And Australia is providing them with some of that coal.

And

so

they're just shipping it off to someplace else, which is good because that's the way, you know, the air stays in China.

The Chinese air, it stays right there.

It never moves.

If we've learned any lesson over the past couple of years, anything in the air in China stays in China.

That's the lesson that we've taken from this.

this.

Exactly.

And there is something else here that you should know.

A freelance writer and regular contributor at Bon Appetit

has written a New York Times op-ed

that I think is,

you know,

I think it's just a sign of the future.

The article is titled A Taste for Cannibalism.

And

they said, you know, there is a time and place for cannibalism.

Now, I was thinking about that, and I thought, yeah, it might be the 1400s

and probably on some island.

But I don't think the time and place is the here and now for cannibalism.

But they disagree.

I'll tell you why coming up in just a second.

In case you haven't been keeping up with 2022 bingo, the whole country is going through a heat wave right now.

And that is just fun.

That's fun.

Especially when the government says, hey, can you keep it up about 89 degrees in your house?

Because who's not comfortable at 80, 89 degrees?

I mean, we all are.

Let's be serious.

Air conditioning?

Who needs it?

So,

the reason why we should engage or we should look at cannibalism, you know,

is

because,

well, you know, we might have to eat people.

We might have to eat people.

And

who doesn't think of that?

You know,

who looks at the situation right now and says, you know, in a couple of years, we might have to eat people.

And

I think, I mean, we're repulsed by it right now, but will we be in a couple of years?

And

I don't know.

You know, I was repulsed by pedophilia.

But today, a lot of people are like, you know, pedophilia.

You know, you might want to give it a whirl.

So

what could possibly be next?

You know?

I think it's good, especially with the world population getting out of control.

We just have too many people.

And also, NPR, while you were gone, Stu, encourages people now to eat tasty insects to help battle climate change,

which is now just don't eat any insect.

Eat the, quote, tasty insects

to

help with that.

And that is,

you know, that's another great thing to do.

What's the palate there?

Is there a savory type of insect?

Is there anyone that leans a little sweet?

There's one that maybe

sautés up well with peppers and onions.

What's the breakdown?

You know, when I take a cricket and I pop it in my mouth, and I mean pop it in my mouth.

I mean, I gently put it in my mouth.

And anyway, they're delicious.

They're very sweet.

Let me just remind you what all of this is about.

From the water in California to the bugs and everything else.

Welcome to my city, or should I say our city?

I don't own anything in this year, 2030.

This is from the World Economic Forum.

I don't own a car.

I don't own a house.

I don't own any appliances or any clothes.

Now that might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city.

Everything considered a product now has become a service.

We have access to transportation, accommodation, food, and all the things we need in our daily lives.

One by one, these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us to own much.

First, communication became digitized, free to everyone.

Then, when clean energy became free, things started to move quickly.

Transportation dropped dramatically in price, and it only made sense for us not to own cars anymore because we could call a driverless vehicle or a flying car for longer journeys within minutes.

We started transporting ourselves in a much more organized and coordinated way with public transport as it became easier and quicker and more convenient than our car.

Now I can hardly believe that we accepted congestion or traffic jams, not to mention the air pollution from combustion engines.

What were we thinking?

Sometimes I use my bike when I go see to my friends.

Really?

This was written by an adult, too.

I enjoy exercise and the ride.

It kind of gets the soul to come along on the journey.

Funny how things never seem to lose their excitement.

Walking, biking, cooking, drawing, growing plants.

It makes perfect sense and it reminds us how our culture emerged out of a close relationship with nature.

In our city we don't pay rent because somebody else is using our free safe, the free space whenever we don't need it.

So that is, you know, that's fantastic.

So you could leave your house and somebody else who's working maybe the night ship can go in and live there during the day while you're at at work.

It's great.

It's great.

All in all, life is good.

I own nothing and I'm happy.

Oh, that's great.

Well,

I'm getting off at this station.

The Glenn Back Program.

Let me tell you about Rough Greens.

Jerry wrote in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.

He says, I listened to you rave about this product, Glenn, for several years before I decided finally to try it.

Then Then I got the trial bag, and it was

more than enough to see the results that I needed to continue purchasing more.

My dog is playing and running again.

She had arthritis and skin allergies, but I can tell you a huge difference after only the second feeding.

Thank you.

I have to tell you, I didn't see things that fast.

I saw my dog eating for the first time.

He would not eat.

And I saw him eat and like gobble his food.

That was good enough for me.

But I have seen long-term changes in my dog in a big way, and they will continue to happen month after month.

Rough Greens, not a dog food, but rather a supplement that you sprinkle on your dog's food.

It has everything good in it.

I mean, if it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in Rough Greens.

Rough Greens, get your free trial bag right now.

All you pay for is shipping.

Oh, hello and welcome to the program.

It is just, it's fantastic to have you.

The White House says, you know, yeah, there's there's the big recession number coming out this week, but they said even if it hits, you know, the second quarter of negative growth, that doesn't mean a recession.

And I would say that's the textbook definition of a recession.

And they said, well, no, but not this time.

Not this time.

It's just slowing down

so it can start going faster.

And I thought, you talked to Kamala Harris for that one, didn't you?

By the way,

I want to share

a few things.

First, let's finish up on the meat thing,

you know, because it's an indulgence we just can't afford anymore.

Listen to this.

You've said that agriculture is arguably the most destructive industry on earth.

Explain, and do you still believe that, George?

It's by far and away the greatest cause of habitat destruction, the greatest cause of wildlife loss, the greatest cause of extinction, greatest cause of soil loss, greatest source of fresh water use.

It's one of the greatest causes of climate breakdown, bigger than transport.

One of the primary causes of water pollution and of air pollution.

So it's right at the top.

Oh, and sorry, I forgot to say land use, the biggest issue of all.

It's by far and away the greatest

form of land use that humans inflict on the planet, which means all that land is land which can't be used for wild ecosystems.

And while obviously we need farming, we need farming.

Okay, Okay,

I can't take it anymore.

I apologize because

I said that

eating meat is an indulgence we can't afford.

He was just talking about all agriculture.

And so let's just get rid of all agriculture, which I think is reasonable.

You know,

it's very, very reasonable to believe that.

And so that's good.

Now, let me go back to the deep thinkers here in our country, because we're not only battling climate change, we are also battling against people who don't want to kill their babies.

It's crazy.

Here's Kamala on the real issue surrounding the abortion debate.

To put it in law, there may be litigation, but we will be in a much better position than

to not do that.

And, you know, listen, women are getting pregnant every day in America, and this is a real issue.

And we need to act with a sense of haste about what is at play, what is at stake, and codifying Roe will be an important

moment in terms of putting back in place protections for

the folks who are at risk right now.

That's good.

That's good.

And I want you to understand what she just said.

What was the real issue there, Stu?

What was the real issue?

Did you miss it?

I think so.

Usually when she speaks, women are getting pregnant every day in America, and that is the real issue.

That's really rough.

You don't want that to happen.

So, you know, you don't want that to happen.

And then what's going to happen if people are born in theory, and we obviously don't want that to happen.

If there's a pregnancy, we want to terminate it immediately.

But if they do happen to somehow be born, we may need to provide food for them, which, as we learned from the previous clip, is the worst thing that could possibly happen.

You can't do it.

You can't do it.

You can't do it.

Now, gynecologists all over the country, apparently, are now warning about the fatal consequences of childbirth, like days-long labor,

pre-eclampsia, and then also eclampsia, chronic infections, pelvic inflammatory disease.

And the World Health Organization is leading this charge.

If you are a child and you are forced to have a baby, you could get that pre- or post-eclamsia.

Well, we don't want them punished with a baby.

With a baby?

No.

We don't want them punished with a baby.

No, we don't want them.

I can't tell you

how many articles I read over vacation.

And this is a sad, I guess, sad admission about my vacation.

But how many articles I read over vacation that went into incredible depth on how exactly to acquire illegal abortion drugs shipped in from India?

You know,

I've rarely seen an explainer from the New York Times on how to achieve or acquire an illegal gun if you happen to want one and they won't give you one in your state.

I've yet to see that explainer at all.

Yet with abortion drugs, I've seen it from every major publication.

How can you do it?

What are the names of the organizations?

Who started the organizations?

What website should we link to to get you to the illegal drugs that would provide abortions in the state where it is not allowed?

Over and over and over again, this theme seems to be out there.

They seem to be passionate about it.

Well, I mean, don't worry, the DOJ is on those lawbreakers,

so they'll be in jail very, very soon.

Now, here's a really good one, Stu.

This is

a pro-life thing or a pro-abortion thing that I just haven't thought of.

This comes from the Washington Post.

It's a lawsuit brought up by the Jewish congregation, Lador Vador,

against the 15-week abortion ban in Florida.

And the congregation

argued that Jewish law does not consider life to begin at conception or at 15 weeks.

And so refusing an abortion could violate their belief.

And so now the Washington Post is pointing out here with Jennifer Rubin that, you know,

that could infringe on the First Amendment rights and the state's Constitution of Free Exercise Clause.

And it's important that we look at this as the First Amendment right, you know, a religious right.

And the forced birth crowd should care about this.

This comes directly from the hardcore conservative columnist Jennifer Rubin, who is

still called that after all these years.

Yeah,

she's a conservative columnist.

She can't find anything she agrees with conservatives on.

There's nothing.

Nothing that she ever speaks of seems to be conservative by any traditional definition of the word.

Well, it's because she writes in dog whistles.

Oh.

Okay.

You see what I mean?

No.

So do not see what it is.

And I'm not a dog, so I can't, I don't know what she's saying, but dogs know exactly what she's saying.

And also, the University of Michigan medical students, they were a little upset.

An assistant professor of medicine

took to the stage on Sunday yesterday to address the new students at their white coat ceremony.

This is when they get

white coats.

And her speech wasn't expected to focus on abortion.

And indeed, it didn't.

However,

students petitioned the school weeks prior to remove her as the keynote speaker because she supports the unborn.

And when she started her speech, she said, You know, I want to acknowledge the deep wounds of our community that we have suffered over the past several weeks.

And we have a great deal of work to do in front of us to heal.

And healing can occur.

And I hope that for today, for this time, we can focus on what matters most, and that is coming together to support our newly accepted students and their families with the goal of welcoming them into one of the greatest vocations that exists on earth.

Well, that was enough to get people to walk out.

A lot of these older Dr.

Wannabes walked out.

They could not take her saying, we should come together and celebrate what we have in common.

And

they haven't fired her yet.

So far, the dean is like, hey, you know, it's

kind of critical that we have diversity of personal thought and ideas because that's the foundation to academic freedom and excellence.

So obviously, the guy is a killer

who just he's so far right as a radical that he still believes in diversity of thought, racist,

that he doesn't fire.

But, you know, they'll get him fired.

And then we'll make some progress.

Then we'll

make some progress.

So

she's a hater, by the way.

She said, I believe in having the courage to let the unborn be born.

I love life.

I believe in having loving care and respect for life and death.

You know,

my faith and my science are what drives the beliefs in me.

You know, before I formed you in the womb, I knew you before you were born.

I set you apart.

I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.

You know, she was quoting Jeremiah.

And I don't know who this Jeremiah is, but is he a PhD?

Is he a philosopher?

Or is he an MD?

I don't know.

Frankly, I don't care.

Jeremiah was not a woman or is not a woman.

It's a bullfrog, right?

Although he could get pregnant.

So maybe we should listen to it.

No, nope, nope.

I just remembered he's pro-life.

We don't listen to him this time.

All right.

Our sponsor this half hour is Patriot Mobile.

Name one thing you use more in a day than your cell phone.

Go ahead.

Name it.

Go ahead.

Can't do it.

Can't do it.

If your service is through one of those huge providers, I bet you're paying through the nose for the privilege, you know,

to use that cell phone.

And especially the privilege of doing business with somebody like Verizon that is supporting Planned Parenthood and is all for killing babies.

I think that's special.

And if I had Verizon, I know I would be like, hey,

the diversity of thought, I'm glad I feel trapped in this overpriced company

and have nowhere to go.

Well, let me tell you, you don't have to feel that way because there is a place to go.

You can get great personal service.

You can get the same cell coverage because they're on the same towers.

They have 100% US-based customer support teams, and they also don't hate you.

I know they're actually working for babies, they're actually working for free speech in their off hours and with some of their profits.

That's what they do because they believe in you and the principles that we believe in.

It's Patriot Mobile.

I want you to go to Patriot Mobile, get free activation right now at patriotmobile.com/slash back, or you can call 972-Patriot, 972-Patriot, or patriotmobile.com/slash back.

So, Donald Trump announced that if he's elected in 2024, but he's not sure he's going to run, if he's elected, he's going to purge the so-called deep state beyond what any president has done before.

He said he will fire as many as 50,000 government workers, and they'll find themselves on the chopping block.

He said he will drain it of tens of thousands of civil servants from the typical apolitical roles.

And he said he'd clean house of mid-level staffers at the Pentagon, Justice Department, State Department, and beyond, and bring in vetted candidates who were found to be more closely aligned with his American First agenda.

Well, I think that's a good start, but I'm a little disappointed in

only 50,000.

You know, because we have,

what is it, about 2 million federal workers, something like that?

You know, I'd like to see a million of them hit the bricks myself.

I mean, how can we possibly run this government with less than 2 million employees, Glenn?

I think it would be totally impossible to do that.

Right.

Right.

It would be almost like

you'd need

local and state communities to pick up the slack.

Doesn't this kind of make sense, though, too?

I mean, you know, this comes from the, I think the Jonathan Swan report from Axios, Axios, where they were talking about this was his plan for his second term.

He had put this into motion.

It actually went through, and then Biden repealed

because it was just through an executive order, but kind of went through and dismantled this when he took office.

But the idea that you should have people in your administration who are willing to carry out the directives of the administration does not seem to me to be a crazy idea.

Like, shouldn't the people who are doing the things they're supposed to be doing actually

want to accomplish them?

That is essentially the pitch from Donald Trump on this one.

And it does seem to be relatively reasonable to me.

Well, he's

using Schedule F.

I don't know what the F stands for, but

that is the executive order.

I'd just like to see him do it without an executive order.

Now, that would require all the Republicans, which

Mitt Romney be like, I think we need a million more.

But,

you know, I'd like to see him do it not through executive action because it'll keep changing back and forth.

And I think we should be able to fire our government workers.

I think that, in fact, I'd like a term limit on them.

I don't think there's a reason you're there for longer than eight years.

Yeah.

And they say they call them.

They're career employees, right?

People who are there for their entire career.

This is it.

They do the same thing.

They stay in

from administration to administration.

And we've talked about this, Glenn, where like their pitch was, it makes sense.

Like people, you're not going to have to have people learning the job every few years.

Like they're going to know how this thing works.

And I can understand the argument there, but the problem with it needs to be handled as well, which is they stay there, they get in their patterns.

They don't, when things change and the American people want change, they don't change.

So they keep doing things the same way when the American people want something, something done a different way.

And that's a real problem.

Yeah,

the issue with Donald Trump's last term was it took him a while to learn the system.

You know what I mean?

He didn't really understand the system in the probably the first six or eight months.

And then it started, you know, clicking in.

That's good.

That's good.

That's the way every federal worker should be.

I don't really know what I'm doing here, so I can't really do anything for a while.

Good.

Good.

Let's just put this in as a law.

This should be on a contract for America with the Republican Party.

Hello, America.

Welcome to Monday.

I don't know if you saw over the weekend, it's very concerning.

The WHO has warned us that this is now a global emergency, monkeypox.

And I am so afraid of turning into a monkey.

I don't want the monkeypox.

Now,

I think I can keep away from the monkeypox, but Stu, he was just on vacation and he did his yearly bathhouse tour.

And

you were at, how many bathhouses did you hit?

Oh, I mean, it's too many dozens to even go through.

To even imagine.

So he's riddled with monkeypox.

But

we're all gonna get it and we're all gonna die, according to the WHO.

So Daniel Horowitz is here to talk about that and so much more in 60 seconds.

Okay, some fun new developments in cybercrime that come to us courtesy of the COVID pandemic.

If information of yours is on the dark web, a cyber criminal can attempt to use that medical care under your name.

They can also commit insurance fraud or even put your own care at risk by mingling your health records with those of a stranger.

That's perfect.

It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives, and every day we put our information at risk on the internet.

That's what LifeLock is here for.

They can't catch everything, no one can, but they can monitor the things better than you can on your own.

And if you do become a victim, they have restoration specialists that can work with you to help fix the problem.

Oh,

Daniel Horowitz, how are you, sir?

We are doing all right.

And Glenn, don't worry, the bathhouses will never be deemed as non-essential.

Yes, thank you.

I know that, and it's weird.

It's weird that this is happening at orgies and bathhouses and things like that.

Yet the government hasn't come out and said you shouldn't do that.

It's weird, isn't it?

I wonder why.

It's funny.

States were able to place travel bans on each other, something they couldn't do during the Articles of Confederation.

We shut down religion.

We tasered people for not wearing a mask outdoors.

We shut down in Idaho church services outdoors.

But somehow, something that actually is quarantinable and seems to emanate 98% from one activity, that's always going to be essential.

Have you heard any government official talk about, like, hey, this is, you know, you should stop that.

You should really stop that for now.

Have you heard that?

No, in fact, what I'm hearing is both parties are set to ban

Red States from ever defining marriage as a marriage this week.

So I think they're stepping on the gas pedal for that.

Interesting.

Okay, so are you concerned about this at all, Daniel, or is this just another nonsensical?

You know, Glenn, I actually am concerned about it.

And the reason is because we're living in a different era.

There was the global warming paradigm where they make something up to scare you, gain control, and

redefine the world, redefine humanity, and create the great reset.

But then there is the COVID paradigm where it's actually real because they created it and then they use that.

So we have to deal with both problems, the thing they created and then the reaction to it.

You know, everything we know about monkeypox, I mean, if you stay away from the bathhouses, you should be fine.

But there is a question.

We've had it for quite a while.

Is it suddenly proliferating so much?

And then at the same time, they seem to have this vaccine ready.

And we do understand there is a concept of self-spreading vaccines.

We also know that last year, May of 2021, they held a tabletop simulation in Germany on monkeypox.

So they seem to somehow know about it.

We know that last year, Bill Gates warned about the coming of a smallpox epidemic.

And we also know that last year, around July, around this time of year,

the FDA approved a new therapeutic for smallpox, which, Glenn, that's pretty funny because it costs a lot of money to go through that process.

Now, why would you approve something and spend that money on it if there is no pathogen, if it's extinct?

And how do you even test it?

How do you even run a clinical trial on that?

So, I don't know.

I'm actually a little bit concerned that even if I stay away from the bathhouses, they might know something that we don't know, just like they did in March of 2020.

I have to tell you, they're so Malthusian.

They're anti- all of these movements are anti-human.

And

they believe that we're overpopulated and everything else.

I just, I hate to say it, but I don't have confidence that some of these people that are working

with diseases

aren't Malthusian themselves.

You know, aren't thinking, you know what?

Okay, we can reduce the surplus population here, and it'll, you know, it'll help us in the long run.

I mean, this is really the biggest concern that shocks me how Republicans and even conservatives seem to walk away from this.

When I talk to people about the need to reaffirm the Nuremberg Code and prevent this from ever happening, codifying laws in state legislatures for bodily autonomy.

People are saying, and even a lot of these GOP leaders, we're done with COVID.

It's over with.

We're not worried about that.

But the problem is,

after 9-11, we had a 9-11 commission.

We had a Pearl Harbor commission.

This thing has killed so many people.

The reaction to it has killed so many people.

All Republicans want to do is talk about inflation, yet inflation seems to have come from our reaction to this.

Don't we want to get to the bottom of how this came about?

Because it sure as heck wasn't natural.

And what other gain of function activities and facilities are coming down the pipeline?

It's a little bit bizarre that there's no drive to find that out.

And when I would speak to people and ask them, hey, where do you think COVID came from?

I would often hear, well, it's once in 100 years we have a pathogen, we have a pandemic, because it's about 100 years since the Spanish flu.

Well, now with monkeypox, we have two of them.

I mean, really, there's also the avian flu, which has caused them to slaughter a lot of chickens, which is contributing to the inflation in chicken and meat.

Really?

I mean, what is going on here?

So I am actually very concerned that there's a lot more gain of function, pathogens, and vaccines in the pipeline.

And I think we ought to have

an accounting of it.

I think it's interesting that a member of the House Intelligence Committee warned Americans late last week that your DNA is open for grabs, and

it's being used, they fear, to develop bioweapons targeting specific groups of Americans or even individuals.

This was

pretty much

the

last Bond movie or the one before?

I think was the no, it was the last Bond movie where they had a pathogen that they could take all the DNA and they could sort people out and target people or target groups.

And we're now saying that it looks like

China is working on this.

Well, China is working on it.

But again, let's not forget that the current

magic juice that's been proliferated and most people have gotten three doses, especially seniors, we have the Swedish study that it does cause reverse transcription and does potentially alter your DNA.

And we really don't have any counter study to that.

It's still bizarre that we have not delved into that.

And I know we're going to be talking about that a little bit on Tuesday night's special because you can't talk about that anywhere else.

So, I would say they already have this technology to an extent, and they have the motive to do it.

You listen to Claude Schwab, to Albert Borlaw, the CEO of Pfizer.

They talk about hacking into people and implanting chips, and they say this with a straight face.

Now, I would admit before COVID, I would have laughed it off and wouldn't have taken them seriously.

But I think the lesson is we ought to take them seriously at their word after everything we've gone through the last two years.

So you mentioned the special that we're doing tomorrow.

It's a Blaze TV special, uncensored, on the dangers and defectiveness of the COVID vaccine.

And I think we have a clip from that special.

Here it is.

Oh, we don't have it.

I thought we had a clip.

All right, I was told we had clips.

So, David,

tell me what the special is, the expert that you have on, and what we're going to find out tomorrow.

Sure, this is kind of our safe space, the only place where you can actually broadcast the truth, which is why it's so important to subscribe to the Blaze, because very soon you won't be able to get the truth anywhere.

I mean, I'm off of Facebook.

I'm kicked off of Twitter.

And we've seen this every step of the way where we try to be the tip of the spear and speak the truth, and then you're not allowed to say that, but then it comes true, but then the next tranche you can't talk about.

We're going to talk about the two most important words, safe and effective, and prove, and it's hard to do it in only an hour and a half, how they are unsafe and ineffective, and in fact, at this point, negatively effective, negative efficacy.

We're having on Dr.

Peter McCullough.

There is nobody as articulate as Dr.

McCullough.

He literally has the authors of all the studies at the tip of his tongue.

And I think it's so important because he is really the most published cardiologist of our generation.

And he gave it all up, gave up his job at Baylor, Texas.

He gave up everything, all of his professorships to speak the truth.

He now has the boards coming after him, medical boards for speaking the truth.

And he is really what got me into this because he was not a legacy anti-vaxxer.

He always gave all the vaccines to his patients.

And he raised concerns very early on, and literally everything he has said has come true.

So you're going to hear that in more Tuesday night.

So he went through

all of the paper that FISA, the court said, no, you've got to release it right away, correct?

Yes.

They were going to hide it for 75 years.

Yeah, 75 years

they wanted to hide the

studies.

What did he find out in the studies?

Sure.

I mean, the sum total of it is we now have over 1,200 peer-reviewed studies identifying some form of injury or malady caused by the shots in every corner of the human body.

These are no longer experimental.

I don't think that's an accurate term.

I think maybe long term it's still experimental.

Short term, the jury is in.

And we're going to

coalesce all of the data, the best data we have, the best studies we have.

And really, the best things are the government and Pfizer's own data is what is so shocking.

And that's what was ensconced in either theirs or the documents released by the court.

And we see, this is the important thing.

It's not like, oops, I burnt one, I burnt the toast.

They knew this.

from day one.

They knew this in the clinical trial phase.

They were seeing this.

You don't have 95% effective and no serious injuries, and then you come the first month and theirs just blows up with every cardio neurological injury you could ever imagine.

And then we see these people get COVID once, twice after getting the shots.

That doesn't happen by accident.

And the point is, they knew about this, and that's very, very disturbing because it means the FDA knew about this as well.

I'm telling you, the whole rat's nest in Washington, D.C.,

we need a reboot.

We don't need a great reset.

We just need a reboot.

We need to shut the system off and boot it back up because it is just, it's corrupt, corrupt to the bone.

It really is.

And I think people need to recognize we're not one election away from fixing Washington.

I mean, it's just not going to happen.

And you pick your favorite choice of president, your dream candidate, okay?

And the bottom line is you're not going to fix CDC and the FDA and DOJ and the EPA.

It's just not happening.

There's nothing to drain.

The entire thing is a maggot-infested carcass from head to toe.

And I think we really need to understand that that window of fixing things conventionally has passed at some date, but certainly after March 2020.

Let me tell you about the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.

On 9-11, 2,977 people were killed in a horrific terrorist attack on American soil.

And after that day, most of us vowed we'd never forget.

Have you forgotten?

I think I have in some ways.

This organization has kept that promise, and it's amazing and just incredible what they have done.

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been supporting America's heroes and their families since 9-11.

When a first responder or military service member doesn't come home or young children are left behind, Tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift the financial burden

and bring their family to stability.

The U.S.

Army specialist Jason Wheeler is one of those heroes.

He re-enlisted after 9-11 and he had a training accident and it left him unable to walk.

So he tried for years to manage.

Now, specialist Wheeler and his family,

they just moved into a mortgage-free smart home.

It was custom-designed for his needs.

Our nation's heroes, people who put their lives on the line for our country and our community, need your help.

I don't want the government doing more.

I want to do more.

Donate ten, or sorry, donate eleven dollars to T2T, tunnel2towers.org.

That's T, T, the number 2T dot org.

10 seconds, station ID.

I'll tell you, Stu,

did you see the story

about

our DNA being at risk?

Was this over the past?

I don't know.

Not over the past week, no.

Yeah,

our DNA now

is at risk, and

it's being used by China and others.

We say we're not doing it, but

I doubt that.

We say we're not doing it, but I doubt that.

That you could use, did you see the James Bond movie, the last James Bond movie?

Oh, no, you don't like James Bond.

I think I did.

I think I did see this.

It's the one where the, I guess, the Russian scientist

had this

DNA code.

Yeah, Russian scientists.

It was never, never anybody in the Middle East.

No.

Anyway, this Russian scientist had this

kind of vaccine, this spray that you could spray on people.

And it would target your DNA.

So it could kill you and your family, but it'd be fine for everybody else.

And

it's spread anywhere.

So you could give it to, you know, you can give it to everybody in China.

And because there are so many people that are flying over to

America,

Americans would get it.

If it was targeting, let's say, Caucasians,

they would spread it from Chinese, and you wouldn't necessarily know where you got it, and then people would come home sick, and then all Americans would be dead.

That is, that's a little frightening.

Wow.

Some of the stuff that we have now.

It would be frightening, except for the heroic actions of 007.

And so now we shouldn't be worried about it because he was able, I mean, spoiler alert, he was able to

put it to a stop.

No, this is a different lab on a different island.

Oh, I don't know if you know that.

Yeah.

And it's good to to see that the Biden administration is waking up to Huawei and CNN too.

CNN is concerned now because an FBI investigation has determined that Huawei equipment could disrupt the U.S.

nuclear arsenal and our communications.

You won't believe what we were about to let the Chinese do,

not under the Trump administration, but from Biden.

You will not believe what they just said.

You know, we should stop that.

Thank God they did.

That story and so much more next.

Well, the cost of everything is going up from the gas pump to the grocery store.

Inflation surges on.

By the way, Stu, can you get the exact words from the White House on

inflation and recession?

They say that recession

is not happening.

Now, we're expecting it to prove that inflation two quarters back to back

without growth.

That's the definition of it.

And they've said, no, there's a new definition.

Of course, there is.

No, he called Merriam-Webster up right now.

We said, hey, Miriam, you want to change something for me?

Anyway, fees are going up.

It's time to do something about it.

So, this is this is great.

Now, the Chinese, the FBI, has just figured out there might be some things going on with the Chinese.

And

it's like, wait a minute, wait a minute, man.

What do you mean, ancient Chinese secret?

There is something going on here

with a Chinese project.

The Chinese offered to build in Washington, D.C.

They said it's going to bring all kinds of tourists to.

And they wanted to build

a

beautiful, ornate Chinese garden at the National Arboretum in Washington, D.C.

And it would have temples and pavilions and a 70-foot-wide pagoda.

And it was thrilling.

All the local officials were like, that is so exciting.

And then the FBI started looking into it and they found a couple of red flags.

The pagoda, they noticed,

would be strategically based on one of the highest points in Washington, D.C.

just two miles from the U.S.

Capitol.

And they said that's kind of the perfect spot for

gathering intelligence and in communications to grab everybody's intelligence communication.

And so they thought that that might not be bad.

And then the other thing that the Chinese are like, what?

What?

What's the problem?

They wanted to build the pagoda with materials shipped to the U.S.

in diplomatic pouches.

So when you ever put something in a diplomatic pouch, it can't be searched at customs.

Now, what could they possibly bring it?

I bet it was fish.

Have you been to a country

where you eat a lot of fish?

And did you bring any fish on this trip?

I bet it was fish.

I bet it was fish, Stu.

They killed the project and canceled

the garden, which is, you know, very, very, very nice.

But,

you know, the Chinese are purchasing land all over the country, which, you know, I don't think that's

FBI uncovered

Chinese-made

Huawei equipment atop cell towers near a U.S.

military base in the rural Midwest.

They said that's kind of a problem when they checked with Strategic Command because apparently it could just, you know, block our

nuclear communication.

And that might also be

a problem.

Former officials described the probe's finding as a watershed moment.

The investigation was so secret that some senior policymakers in the White House,

Stu,

you're doing a secret dive into China.

You don't want anyone to know

because, you know, cat gets out the bag.

China could do anything.

It says senior officials at the White House didn't even know.

Do you think that Joe and Hunter Biden might have been on that list of, hey, just don't tell them.

And we tell everybody else in the White House, don't tell them what we're doing with China.

The president is on a need-to-know basis.

Yeah,

need to know.

And he definitely does not need to know.

In 2020,

Congress approved $1.9 billion to remove Chinese-made Huawei

cellular technology.

Two years later, yeah, they just can't find the money to do it.

Gosh darn it.

You know,

none of the equipment is removed, and it's still there.

And they're just waiting for reimbursement money, and they can get it done.

The FCC applications to remove 24,000 pieces of Chinese-made communications equipment.

They can't do because

they can't raise the money.

They're $3 billion short at the FCC.

And there's like, what?

Where did I put that $3 billion?

By the way, we sent more money over to Ukraine this weekend, so I know that.

That's really good.

China has also issued a stark private warning to the Biden administration about a possible trip to Taiwan in August by Nancy Pelosi.

They have cited six people familiar with the Chinese warnings that say they are significantly stronger than the threats that Beijing has made in the past when it was unhappy.

The private rhetoric suggests a possible military response, according to the Financial Times.

The White House Security Council and State Department declined to comment on the report.

China's foreign ministry did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for a comment on Sunday.

So

I'm trying to think,

besides insider trading, why is it so important for Nancy Pelosi to go to Taiwan?

Just

wondering.

The food?

Okay.

Sure.

If you're president, you know, I don't want to back off of Taiwan, but I mean, unless it's critical that we're over there in Taiwan,

and I don't think it is with Nancy Pelosi.

I mean, if it was somebody good that we were

sending over there, but Nancy doesn't even know what she's talking about.

Here's what we do: you don't have to be as sophisticated as Mission Impossible.

You don't.

You just put her on a plane, drop her in some, you know, tropical destination,

have somebody that looks different, you know, just not white, speaks another language, doesn't have to be, you know, Taiwanese or Chinese, and

just tell her she went to Taiwan.

You don't think she'd pick that one up?

I mean, it seems like her and her husband are usually so drunk they wouldn't even necessarily recognize the difference.

Yeah, she is

a little,

I mean, just a little

hammered, seeming,

during the day.

She seems hammered.

He's been charged with it.

He's

got the DUI

on his docket.

So I think

just the combination of the two, her appearance,

his actual seemingly DUI, dangerous, almost killing somebody accident,

those two combined, they'll probably believe almost anything.

All right.

All right, then I say we do it.

Let's send him over.

By the way, there's a great

essay done by John Whitehead and Nisha Whitehead from the Rutherford Institute on technology, and they say, we are now crossing the line of no return.

We are at this line.

We are on the cusp of a cultural, technological, and societal revolution, the likes of which we have never seen before.

While the political left and right continue to make abortion the face of the debate over the right to privacy in America, the government and its corporate partners, aided by rapidly advancing technology, are reshaping the world into one which there is no privacy at all.

Nothing that was once private is protected.

We have not even begun to register the fallout from this tsunami bearing down on us in the form of artificial intelligence surveillance, and yet it is already already reorienting our world into one in which freedom is almost unrecognizable.

AI surveillance harnesses the power of artificial intelligence and widespread surveillance technology to do what the police state lacks the manpower and resources to do effectively or efficiently, to be everywhere, to watch everyone, everything, monitor, identify, catalog, cross-check, cross-reference, and collude.

Everything that was once private is now up for grabs to the right buyer.

Governments and corporations alike have heedlessly adopted AI surveillance technology without any care or concern for their long-term impact on the rights of citizenry.

As a special report from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace warns, a growing number of states are deploying advanced AI surveillance tools to monitor, track, and surveil citizens to accomplish a range of policy objectives, some lawful, others violating human rights.

Most fall into the murky middle ground.

Indeed, with every new AI surveillance technology that is adopted and deployed without any regard for privacy, Fourth Amendment rights, and due process, the rights of citizenry are being marginalized, undermined, and eviscerated.

Digital authoritarianism, as the Center for Strategic and International Studies

cautions, involves the use of information technology to surveil, repress, manipulate the populace, endangering human rights and civil liberties, and co-opting and corrupting the foundational principles of a democratic and open society, including freedom of movement, the right to speak freely and express political dissent, and the right to personal privacy on and offline.

Now,

this article, I'm going to go into it more tomorrow, but it is fascinating to me.

They say

there are

nine steps, nine elements of the Chinese model of digital authoritarianism.

So see how many we have done.

Dissidents suffer from

persistent cyber attacks and phishing.

I know we've had that.

Social media, websites, and messaging apps are blocked.

That's happened.

Posts that criticize government officials are removed.

Haven't had it with officials but had it on policy.

Mobile and internet access revoked as punishment for activism.

Haven't had that yet.

Paid commentators drown out government criticism.

Oh, I think that's happened.

New laws tighten regulations on online media.

Not yet.

Citizens' behavior monitored via AI and surveillance tools.

Absolutely.

Individuals regularly arrested for posts critical of the government.

No.

And nine, online activists are made to disappear.

Not yet.

Glenn, it's interesting.

A lot of those that you said have not occurred, have occurred, but just not through the government, right?

Like we have seen people get kicked off for comments they've made about our

and lose their access to their business, to their banking system, and all of this for whatever their business does or comments that they've made.

It just that hasn't come through the government.

You know, it's the sort of the approach that you outline in the Great Reset, where it comes not from the government, but through an arrangement

overt or not, between the government or people who just share the ideology of those in power and then execute those punishments outside of law.

It's just something, and they're able to do it.

It just has not been American tradition.

We've always given people even access to

simple things like banking, regardless of your political opinion.

That has changed and it hasn't come through the government through law, where I think it would be clearly unconstitutional.

It's come instead from these companies doing it on their own.

But the effect is the same on the people who are impacted.

And it's hard to know where the government ends and where these private companies begin.

You know, when the White House is saying we're in touch with social media and telling them which sites and which voices need to be turned down,

is the government,

is Twitter and Facebook, is that all a tool of the government?

Is the government a tool of Facebook and Google?

I don't know.

I don't know where one ends and one begins.

Back in a minute with more.

Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

If you've ever made a decision that you really regretted later,

it could be one that you made about your house.

If this is the biggest one that can affect financially, can affect you for the rest of your life.

So,

you know, don't think of it as something you just have to do and get out of the way.

Don't think of it as, I don't know, I just, who knows a real estate agent?

Anybody know a good one?

Actually, there is a way to find the best real estate agents.

There is a way to know if your house is going to sell fast and for the most amount of money by knowing, just for instance, in this one case, the advertising budget.

Is the advertising budget for their website?

Is that getting people in and what is the traffic like?

Because if the traffic on the website is high, then you have the best chance of selling your home.

Realestateagentsitrust.com.

We know what the tricks are to sell a home and also know how to buy a home for the least amount of money.

Our real estate agents don't work for us.

We just vet them and see which ones are using these kinds of tactics and also have deep credibility and are not the kind that are going to yell at you for saying master bedroom.

I mean, unless you are a racist.

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.

No.

Charlie's sober.

He's gonna 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.

Did you have you seen what

the Chinese and I would assume we are developing for war, the drone swarm?

Have you seen that?

I did see a documentary about this

called Like the Eagle Has Fallen or something, which came out a few years ago.

No, and they were fishing.

Morgan Freeman.

Morgan Freeman is not our president.

He's not our president.

Yeah, no.

Well, he's not now.

He was killed by drones, I believe.

But they came over in a swarming pattern.

Actually, I think he survived, but they came along in a swarming pattern while he was on vacation and just killed everybody around.

And you look at this, obviously it's a movie, but you're seeing what they're doing with just like fireworks now.

They're doing these incredible drone shows.

You saw what they did at the Olympics, right?

Like imagine that technology in the hands of the military with not consumer-level drones, but the highly sophisticated ones they use.

I mean,

imagine what they could do.

Well, I I don't know if we're going to use the highly sophisticated ones, or at least ours may not work, because we're buying, the FBI just bought a bunch of Chinese drones.

Why would you do that?

Why would you do that?

We just want to help them out, throw them a bone.

You know,

they couldn't build their giant pagoda.

So we thought, hey, just let's give them

access to all of our

spy drones that we use over the cities.

Oh, okay, that's cool.

Oh, God.

Oh, don't you kind of pine for the old days?

I mean, just a little, I mean, not so old where we're not using toilet paper or indoor plumbing, but, or air conditioning or refrigeration.

All right, I'm being picky now, but I pine for that small sliver.

I'll tell you about a home title lock.

What's the worst type of cybercrime?

Well, the crime that happens to you is usually the worst one.

But how about the one that you don't even know is happening to you?

The thing about cybercrime right now and what's going on with home title fraud is they're just taking these documents from you.

And when they take them, they can sign up for all sorts of loans against your equity.

And then the cyber criminal is gone.

They leave you behind to deal with all the nonsense afterward.

Thousands and thousands of dollars, legal fees, trying to unwind things with the government.

You know how tough that can be.

No agency is going to notify you or ask you if you sold your home or added someone to the title.

You won't have a clue until the collection calls start coming in.

So go to hometitalock.com and read the testimonials there.

Learn about all of this.

Register your address.

See if you're already a victim.

And when you register to protect your home, there'll be a little space for you to tell them that Stu sent you.

That way, you get 30 risk-free days of protection.

So make sure you do that.

Hometitallock.com.

It's home-titlelock.com.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together, it's the corner survival.

What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenback program.

If our society cannot govern itself,

then it's going to require an

authoritarian government to do it for us.

That is part of the strategy of top-down, bottom-up, and inside-out that I've talked to you about for 20 years now.

Are we seeing it now in action?

Because last week I felt another season change.

I felt another milestone hit that is not necessarily a good one.

And I look at today's news, and it is still more of the same where you have a 12-time shoplifter in New York being let go

and

while she's on parole, I guess,

she shoplifts 19 other times

and still let out.

city mayor in Kalamazoo, Michigan, as they've just decided, you know what, you can urinate and defecate in public

because, you know,

that's important to make these equitable changes.

Really?

And last week it was the four-year-old that was shooting at the cops.

I don't know if you saw that.

I wanted to get Jason Whitlock on

from

the Blaze TV and the podcast Fearless.

He is remarkable and

always has a great take on things like this.

I want to know

the attacks on the police officers,

the civil unrest that we have, and I don't mean organized civil unrest,

and the loss of self-control,

is this something that is the

chaotic result of intentionally designed and carefully taught

systems from these Marxists.

We go there in just a second.

Stand by.

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, and the possibility of the most, and possibly the most powerful banker in the world, just said,

things can get much worse.

We are facing very serious problems.

You know, it's important to note that he's the only major bank chief to survive the 2008 financial crisis, so maybe he knows a little about what he's talking about.

He continued to say, when I said there were dark clouds on the horizon, I think people underestimated my warning.

They thought these economic problems were temporary, and this is not the case.

May I suggest you're proactive before everything hits the fan and put a portion of what you have saved in gold or silver?

Goldline is having an unthinkable special right now.

With every box of 500 of their new silver one-ounce Benjamin Franklin rounds, you'll receive the quarter-ounce gold version of the same product for free.

There's no way Goldline should be giving this away, but they are very excited about the new Benjamin Franklin rounds.

They are really, really a great product.

They're willing to do it for you at 866 Goldline, 866 Goldline, or go to goldline.com, find out how they can help you.

Jason Whitlock, host of Fearless.

How are you, sir?

I'm great, Glenn.

How are you?

Well, I'm good.

I, you know, I saw two videos last week.

I saw these children punching a cop, hitting a cop.

I mean, little kids.

I'm sure you saw this too.

Oh, yeah.

And then the four-year-old, then the four-year-old picking up a gun and shooting at the cops.

And I thought, is this,

are we at a new level now?

What is happening to us, Jason?

You know, I talked about this last week, and it's like we're living in a real-life version of the novel Lord of the Flies.

And young people are, you know, they crash an airplane and a bunch of kids survive on this island.

and they descend into total chaos and brutality and depravity because there's no adult supervision, because there's no faith in God.

And that's what's happening with young people.

There is no adult supervision.

And so they're descending further and further into depravity and chaos and foolishness.

And

when you look at America, you know, you were asking, is this organized?

And yeah, I think all of this is organized.

The people trying to undermine America have

promoted the environment, the disrespect for authority, the disrespect for the country, the disrespect for law enforcement.

And once you've imposed that mentality on the culture, this is the kind of chaos and depravity that's going to just become more and more pervasive.

So, how do we get out of that?

Is anybody

seeing anything good happen in the black community towards police officers, for instance?

Well, as it relates specifically to the black community, I think

it's what the entire American community is going to require, and that's a spiritual reawakening.

It's the only hope.

As this culture has become more and more secular and more and more godless,

it's just going to become more and more depraved.

And again, you talk about it constantly, but all of this is rooted in the destruction of the family culture.

And so when you tear apart families, this is what happens.

And so is the problem most acute with African Americans?

Yes, because the destruction of the black family,

the terror, the impact of that has been most harshly felt on black people.

But it's happening in all parts of American society because

even where there are two parents, we're still not talking about a traditional family structure.

We're still not talking about a true commitment to developing and nurturing young people.

You know, we deal with our young people after we deal with our jobs, after we deal with making as much money as we possibly can, and have secured our second third car, our second home.

We just don't have, America doesn't have the commitment to young people and children that we used to to have.

And so we shouldn't be surprised that these kids are turning on us and turning on the culture and the society we've left them with.

Oh, geez.

All right, what's the big topic for you today on your show?

Today, we're going to talk about Kyler Murray and the contracts being given out in the NFL and how, you know, I'm less excited for the NFL than I have been at any time in my life.

But the topic tomorrow that I'm going to get into that

your audience would maybe be really, really interested in is I watched a sermon from a minister called Bishop E.W.

Jackson.

And I think he gave it two weeks ago.

I watched it yesterday.

It is one of the greatest

sermons, if not the greatest sermon I've ever watched.

And it made me realize

what what the problem is with this whole January 6th thing and why it doesn't sit right with me and who's really to blame.

And again,

it wasn't his argument.

What's the gist of it?

Well, the gist of it is like, as Christians, as believers,

we're sitting on the sidelines in this cultural war, and

we have to get involved.

This whole separation of church and state is being misused.

And if we don't return to a John the Baptist mentality

and impose our will on this culture,

you know, let's don't sit around and complain about the culture.

And so for me, this wasn't his argument, but for me, my takeaway was I'd look at what happened on January 6th, and I blame the media, and I blame the left, and I blame all the lies that were told, but I also blame us as Christians because

we need, rather than, and again, this isn't an anti-Trump statement, but it's just a fact.

Rather than flying the Trump flag, we need to be flying a Jesus flag, a religious flag, a faith flag, and demanding that our politicians build a culture that is respectful of the Judeo-Christian culture that this country was founded upon.

We deserve that.

We're owed that.

That's the reparations we're owed.

Our founding fathers built a Judeo-Christian culture and founding documents based on that.

And we're watching politicians and elitists betray all that, destroy all that.

And we haven't mustered the strength as believers to take our butts to Washington instead of letting the leftist crazies and lunatics define all the protests and instead of letting political people, and again, I have no problem with the MAGA crowd, but if that had been a group of Christians out there praying

and asking for America to restore some integrity and facts and truth to this society, a group of Christians would have never been baited into entering the Capitol.

We never would have let Rayeps and the other

influencers bait us into the lunacy that they're now using against us.

And so we got to put away these political identities and embrace the true identity of this country and the only identity that can really save this country, and that's faith in God.

I will tell you that on this faith in God, this is how far away we are.

Did you know that

we are now sending money overseas through Blinken,

through the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Grant program.

And it is promoting

atheism and humanism.

Yeah, I did know that.

It doesn't surprise me.

And again, if we don't gather up as believers and say we know what you're doing and make them talk about what they're actually doing, we got to draw a line in the sand, Glenn.

We just haven't done it.

And enough is enough that the drag queens at schools grooming and trying to bait our children into a lifestyle that is unhealthy and doesn't lead to reproduction.

We got to stop this.

If we can't draw a line in the sand over what they're doing to our kids, then we're cowards and we deserve the destruction that's coming to this country.

Thank you so much.

I really,

really enjoyed talking to you.

Thank you, Glenn.

Love you too.

You bet.

Love you.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

You know, we're sitting here.

We're looking at our society just crumble.

And I've noticed that

when I read

a story about guns, if I, for instance, at least 61 people have been shot, three fatally in shootings all across Chicago over the weekend.

61

people were shot.

It doesn't talk about capturing or getting any of these guys, just what happens to, you know, what's the aftermath.

When I'm reading stories about guns and they capture people,

I never hear if that gun is legal or illegal.

But have you noticed recently that when somebody shoots somebody and stops them,

it will say a legally purchased gun or he had the permit.

to carry the weapon.

But when they catch somebody doing bad things, they never say that why is that

is that is that possibly because uh

you know uh it would hurt our case because then it's about illegal weapons it's not about somebody going into you know the gun store and buying a weapon well the doj did a study of state and federal prisoners and asked all of them that were um

that were convicted on some sort of gun charge, violent crime, where they got their gun.

And the finding of that study was 1.3% of them got it through retail purchase.

So, when you're talking about restricting guns through retail purchases, which is almost every single

bill that we're talking about is addressing those issues,

you kind of have an issue there because it doesn't do much at all to restrict crime.

Most of these weapons are taken illegally,

whether they're stolen or purchased by someone else legally and then sold or given to criminals.

Many of them were found at other crime scenes.

So, like there's some sort of shootout or whatever, or a robbery, and they are stealing them from other crime scenes.

Only 1.3% of people walking into the counter and going through the process, which obviously makes sense, right?

And when you're a party that is advocating openly to allow pretty much anybody who wants to come over the border to come over it.

How can you even complain about these things?

Even if you were to be able to lock down every single purchase in the United States of a weapon, you're opening the border so that anyone can come across.

And believe me, if you restrict gun sales here, that incentive will be created even stronger for guns to come across the border from Mexico and Central America.

So these arguments make no sense.

I think they know that, but they continue to make them anyway because they know enough of their voters will buy them.

But they're not, they're not, they're not coherent arguments.

So, Gavin Newsom Friday signed a bill that allows private citizens to sue people who manufacture, sell, transport, or distribute illegal assault weapons and ghost guns.

So, now that's that's the exact quote from the bill, and

I'm a little confused.

Is it somebody who manufactures a ghost ghost gun or an illegal assault weapon?

Or is it just somebody who's making AR-15s, you know, and selling them in stores?

And then somebody went and bought one

and that person used it illegally and killed a bunch of people.

Do we sell the gun manufacturer?

Do we sue the gun manufacturer?

Or is it just for somebody who's making illegal assault weapons and ghost guns.

Yeah,

I don't know.

It's interesting.

I mean, I do know that ghost guns were illegal in Japan, and still somehow someone was able to make one and shoot Shinzo Abe.

So we know that these laws are not, I mean, there's lots of reasons why these laws don't make any sense.

Of course, by the way, that study from the DOJ did not show a lot of ghost guns being the reason people aren't taking kits home and building their guns as drug criminals.

Typically, that's not the way that that works at all.

But that is, of course, they keep claiming this is some sort of big issue.

And I'll say this, Glenn, we've talked about this when it comes to the structure of law.

I don't like it.

I don't think it's a good way for our system to operate where you're empowering people to just sue each other on suspicion of crimes.

We said the same thing when it came to the abortion law.

You know, we said that the abortion law here in Texas.

I really like the outcome.

of making abortion more difficult for people to obtain.

I'm super pro-life.

But the Mississippi case was really the better way to go about this.

I think the structure of the law, if we go to a place where states are constantly incentivizing people to sue everybody else on the basis of political disagreements, I mean, there's no reason that, why couldn't California do this with SUVs?

Why couldn't they do it with 100 other things?

It's just a bad,

it's a bad structure for a law.

And as much as I like the outcome of it in Texas, I'm much more comfortable with the way that the pro-life agenda has advanced through the overturning of Roe versus Wade than I am with the structure.

I don't think it's a good idea.

Yeah.

We both talked about this when we like it in theory.

Yeah, I like the outcome.

I like the case.

Yeah, we like the outcome.

We like

the idea of standing up,

but the law was a mess and a mistake.

Anyway,

you know, you're talking about in Japan, the knives.

How about Lee Zeldon?

Lee Zeldon, running for office in New York, he's given a speech and somebody charges the stage and has a knife and says, you're done.

New York, are you going to ban all knives?

The answer is no, because

that guy didn't even go to jail.

He tried to knife and kill a candidate for governor, and he didn't even go to jail.

All right.

Cynthia wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor.

She says, Last night I was able to sleep through the night without waking up from pain or cramping from my right hip and leg.

It's almost the end of the second week of taking Relief Factor, and it's the first time I felt genuinely hopeful that my life can go back to normal.

Thank you so much, Relief Factor.

Cynthia, I am so glad.

I hope it continues to

get better and you get out of pain entirely.

Love to hear back from you after a few more weeks.

But I'm glad you got your life back.

If you're dealing with pain, please give Relief Factor a try.

It's not a drug, but it was developed by doctors, and four key ingredients work with your body to fight inflammation, which causes most of our pain.

The three-week quick start is available now for $19.95.

Try it for three weeks.

Hundreds of thousands of people have tried Relief Factor, and about 70% of them go on to order more because they feel like Cynthia.

I'm getting my life back.

I'm one of them.

The Washington Post

had asked: Have civilians with permitted concealed handguns stopped mass shootings before?

And some people went to work

on this and came up with this answer from crimerch.org.

I find it fascinating.

Let me just give you the cases.

Greenwood, Indiana, July 17th, 2022.

The attacker was heavily armed, had already murdered three people and wounded three others when a 22-year-old man, legally carrying a gun, fatally shot him.

About 20 shots were fired.

It seems extremely likely that more would have been murdered.

Three people are dead, three more injured after the shooting.

The shooting suspect, who believe police act police police believe acted alone, was killed by an armed citizen at the mall.

Then you go to West Virginia, May 25th.

Here, a man with an extensive criminal history starting an AR-15 style firearm,

pointing it right into a crowd, and then firing.

Fortunately, a woman who was legally carrying a gun was there to stop the attack.

Police said a woman who was lawfully carrying a pistol shot and killed the man who began shooting at a crowd of people on Wednesday night in Charleston.

Dennis Butler was killed after allegedly shooting at dozens of people in attending a graduation party the Wednesday near Vista View apartment complex.

Instead of running from the threat, the sheriff said, she engaged the threat and saved several lives that night.

By the way, the guy who died had an extensive criminal history.

South Fulton, Georgia.

This is May 3rd, 2022.

A teenager started firing his gun at multiple people, a large number of people present at the park because of an anti-violence riot.

I love that.

Because of an anti-violence riot.

South Fulton, Georgia, Meadows said the man involved in the shootout with Hambrick had been cooperative and will likely not be charged since the teenager fired the first shot.

Phoenix City, Alabama, April 13th, 2022.

Two suspects went into a truck shop over a dispute from earlier in the day.

One

got out with his vehicle and began to shoot at four people standing outside the business.

One of the intended victims was a concealed handgun permit holder and had his firearm and returned fire striking both suspects.

The business owner, Paul Thrasher, said

if they hadn't returned the fire, he would have advanced on us and he would have killed all of us.

Thank God someone was here.

Portland, Oregon, homeowner allegedly confronted participants at a racial justice demonstration Saturday night before pulling out a handgun and shooting multiple people in the crowd, leaving one woman dead and several others injured.

The shooting, however, ended when a person in the group,

which had a license to conceal carry a firearm, fired back, striking striking the homeowner in the hip.

I could go on and on and on with these stories.

Those are just the stories that happened in the last year.

Yeah, and it's been interesting to see the response from the left, instead of, of course, celebrating the fact that a bunch of people were saved, they instead are calling it vigilante action.

I love this from Shannon Watts.

She's the founder of Moms Demand Action, which is a radical anti-gun group.

And she says, when a 22-year-old illegally brings a loaded gun into a mall and kills a mass shooter armed with an AR-15 after he already killed three people and wounded others, it's not a ringing endorsement of our implementation of the Second Amendment.

First of all, it was not an illegal gun.

In fact, all of the recent laws passed in Indiana

actually made the fact, made it possible for him to do this.

Like the loosening of laws recently made it appropriate and legal for him to be carrying the gun in that situation, which wound up saving all those lives.

So for everyone who said that they were going to, these loosening the laws were going to make these situations worse, the opposite is true in this case.

And as David Harsani, our friend, mentioned when this was going on, you don't need to implement the Second Amendment.

It's in the Constitution.

There's no implementation of it.

It's a right that comes from God through our government,

which is supposedly defended by our government as one of its highest priorities.

This is not something you need to implement.

This is something that is already here.

It has been here since the Second Amendment went through.

And despite everybody on the left and their crazy, you know, anti-gun agenda, that's not going to change.

You don't get to implement it.

It's here already.

You know what, but the facts don't ever seem to matter to people.

Have you noticed that?

The facts don't matter to the left.

Look at the crime on our streets.

Look at what's happening in our cities.

Look what's happening in our schools.

And yet, for some reason, the left just isn't ever held accountable for it.

You know, the Democratic members in Congress are saying this week

that if the Fed, Jerome Powell, if he raises the interest rate this week,

He's already responsible for inflation, but he's going to be responsible for the recession.

Wait, I thought Putin was responsible for the inflation.

It's their spending.

He printed it at their request.

It's not like he's printed.

I'm not saying he's a great guy and the Fed's great.

I can't believe I'm defending the Fed in this particular case.

But

he didn't print it up and go, hey, little girl, I've got some money for you.

Congress is spending all the money.

And he's like, there's nobody buying anything.

They're not buying our treasury bills anymore.

Yeah, we'll just print it.

Okay.

It doesn't ever seem to matter what the facts are.

For instance, back to crime.

George Soros

has sunk millions of dollars over the past several years into boosting candidates that have, you know,

ended cash bail, barring prosecution of minors as adults, declining to bring cases up against a host of less serious but frequently

disruptive violations of the law.

They have trashed our cities.

For instance, $1.6 million to elect the district attorney in Philadelphia.

The city's on fire.

In his first term, murders climbed to a historic level.

It broke then its all-time murder record in 2021.

Shootings in Philadelphia spiked to their highest levels ever recorded last year, and scrutiny of the uptick in crime occurred on his watch, but he was re-elected.

Los Angeles, district attorney, George Gascon, $4.7 million

through a George Soros-funded political action committee.

Soros invested a more modest

amount, $300,000, through a political action committee in the 2016 race that made Kim Fox the district attorney in Chicago.

She was one of the first progressive prosecutors that Soros supported in what would become a nationwide movement.

By 2020, Soros had invested $2 million

in a campaign that boosted Fox.

He put his money into the political action committee that boosted former San Francisco district attorney Chase Boudine.

Boudine's removal from office was the first time it seems anybody is actually doing anything about these.

Look at our society.

Look at our society.

What has caused this?

Well,

let's see.

The DAs that are running things that won't prosecute.

The

Black Lives Matter movement that made every cop into a bad guy.

And George Soros.

Nobody can even diagnose this in the press.

Well, it's because

if Donald Trump were in office right now and the economy was like this, they would say it's Donald Trump's economy.

People are just so desperate because of gas prices and everything.

That's exactly what they would be saying.

Instead, we have last week's labor numbers that came out.

And as you go in and crunch the

fine details, we didn't add jobs.

More Americans are not working in this last job report, even though they created, what, 310 jobs, 310,000 jobs?

No, what happened is people who already have a job went out and took a second job.

That's not healthy.

That's not healthy.

And nobody will tell you the truth because

everything is about politics now.

Everything from Nike shoes to sports to theater to books to social media.

Everything in your life is about politics.

That's the biggest problem.

You mentioned this earlier, Glenn, the language from the White House explaining to you that this is not a recession.

I mean, yeah, we might have a second quarter of downturn in the GDP, but that's not a recession.

What you've heard about that is not true.

This is what they said.

What is a recession?

While some maintain, some maintain that two consecutive quarters of falling real GDP constitute a recession, that is neither the official definition or the way that economists evaluate the state of the business cycle.

It is unlikely that the decline in GDP in the first quarter of this year, even if it is followed by another GDP decline in the second quarter, indicates a recession.

Now, of course, it has, it is and always has been shorthand for what?

Economic shorthand.

Like it's two recession, two quarters in a row down in GDP has always been the shorthand.

There is an official designation from the government in retrospect.

They look back and they say, okay, this was a recession.

This wasn't.

This is when it started.

But like, it's how every financial publication has talked about a recession for as long as I can remember doing this.

It's always been two negative quarters in a row, always been the same.

And now they're trying to fight back to redefine that term.

It's no longer the way that, I mean, they certainly loved that definition when George W.

Bush was president.

They certainly loved it when George H.W.

Bush was president.

I mean, they got that guy out of office coming out of a 90% approval rating or 80% approval rating just a few months earlier because of this definition.

They said they were in a recession.

Now, of course, the recession ended almost immediately, even before Bill Clinton took office, but they didn't care about that.

They used it against him to defeat him in that particular election.

And it happened throughout George W.

Bush's presidency as well.

So, you know, this is something that's happened over and over again.

They just don't care.

They just assume you won't know.

They assume you won't look.

And at least enough of you won't know or look, and they can get away with it.

But, you know,

it would be nice if there was a media that would call them out on this stuff.

It just, you know, unfortunately only exists at places like the Blaze.

And, you know, there's not enough of this out there to turn the tide at this point, but we're getting there.

My Pillow, I've probably mentioned it once or twice that I love My Pillow from My Pillow and Mike Lindell.

My Pillow is having their biggest sale of bed sheets ever.

The sale is for their Percal sheets, which I don't know.

Stu, would you look it up?

What is Percal?

P-E-R-C-A-Percal.

Percal.

It's

per call, I think.

Maybe per cal.

Sarah, Sarah,

Sarah, can you tell us what it is?

Per cal, like per calorie.

Oh.

Per cal.

I had it right.

Anyway,

the queen size regular price is $89.98.

Now only $39.98 when you use the promo code Beck.

There's a limited supply, so order now because when they're gone, they're gone.

The Percal sheets are breathable, have cool and crisp feel, perfect for summer nights.

What are they, Stu?

I think I remember.

I think I asked Pat this.

He said something about at least 200 thread count or something like that.

Yeah, Percal has a thread count of about 200 or higher, noticeably tighter than the standard type of weave used for bed sheets.

I'm learning things today.

Anyway, well, that's what I'm here for.

A 10-year warranty.

You'll never use that piece of information.

So

we're getting a new

pronunciation for its per kale,

which is what I was saying.

I was right.

No, I don't think that is what it is.

It's per kale.

I don't know what it is.

Yeah, that's exactly what I said.

I don't.

Well, you're in the Radio Hall of Fame.

How can we possibly question you your pronunciation?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Cut with a spoon-style forks.

Thank you.

It is my

pronunciations,

you know, that make me so special.

Yeah.

Anyway,

you hear last week, late last week, the entire police force in a small town in North Carolina resigned.

And they resigned because

apparently this new progressive town manager is super, super progressive.

And

well, I mean, let's just say that she had positions in local governments in Minnesota, Virginia,

and South Carolina.

The

Minnesota thing just kind of sets you on the wrong path, I think.

Anyway, so everybody on the police force walked out, and the sheriff from another county is just covering things now for him.

They must not have a lot of crime

because nobody seems to be freaking out about it.

I was up here talking to the sheriff over the weekend.

He said, I can't find people to be sheriff.

I can't find deputies.

Nobody wants to be a cop.

I'm like, you give me a gun.

I'll clean this town up.

He's like, Clint, we don't.

Nobody wants to be a cop.

No problem with that one.

It's true, though.

Why would you want to be?

I mean, I have a friend of mine who was a police officer and quit for this reason.

He's just like, I can't do it.

I can't do anything.

I'm here to, I want, I took this job to try to protect people and make the community safer, and I'm not allowed to do anything that will actually result in that happening.

So I'm done.

And we know what happens in wars when we go all politically correct and have all these rules of engagement.

That's what our cops are doing, and we're losing the war on the streets.

Oh my gosh, because of weapons of war.

War, war, war, war, war.
