Okay, I have have to tell you the most amazing thing that I have ever experienced.
It is so hot in Texas.
And I, when it's hot outside, I sweat like a nightmare.
I tried the industrial strength sweat block where you apply it once.
I applied it two days ago.
And I haven't sweat.
I haven't been smelly.
It's remarkable.
It is truly remarkable.
That is incredible.
Have we got to the, did we get to the Jeffy test yet?
We have not.
We have to try it.
We have to try.
I'm trying to.
I'm going to try it on his head.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
So I don't know.
I wanted to try a cinder block on his head, too.
This is seriously, if you sweat, especially in the summer, if you like really sweat, this is amazing.
I've never experienced anything like it.
I've been using the deodorant stick, which is just the best antiperspirant deodorant.
But then I tried tried the wipes.
You apply them once a week.
It's incredible.

Stand up straight and hold the line.
It's a new day, I'm
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Back program.
Hello, America, and welcome.
It is Friday.
We begin with baby food in the border in 60 seconds.
Patrick wrote in about his experience with Relief Factor.
He said, I got such great results, Glenn.
My knees were hurting so bad that walking and getting in and out of the car even was difficult and slow.
Three months in now, and I don't even think about my knees anymore.
Relief Factor works.
Worked for me.
Patrick, thank you so much.
It worked for me as well.
I have such pain in my hands that they were almost unusable in many things.
My wife actually,
in one of the most humiliating, emasculating things I've ever gone through, my wife, I'd have to wake her up in the morning to tie my shoes or button my shirt.
It was awful.
And if I feel emasculated, I mean, there's really, there's very little masculinity left in me.
I was a chick.
And don't judge me for that.
Anyway, here's the thing.
Relief Factor.
Please just try it.
1995 developed for you.
70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month, just like Patrick, just like me.

Okay, so I cannot take it anymore.
The Washington Post, the faux outrage that Biden is stockpiling baby formula for undocumented immigrants.
That's the headline, okay?
Here's what happened.
Kat Kamek, she's a congressperson from Florida, said, while mothers and fathers stare at empty grocery shelves in panic, the Biden administration is happy to provide baby formula to illegal immigrants coming across our southern border.
Yet this is another in a long line of reckless, out-of-touch priorities from the Biden administration.
All right, Governor Abbott came out and said the same thing.
You see, the American government sending by the pallet thousands and thousands of containers of baby formula to the border.
That makes my blood boil.
All right.
Okay.
So the Washington Post decides to debunk this.
This is what they have come out with.
CPS, they called the Department of Homeland Security.
CPB takes seriously its legal responsibility to ensure the safety and security of individuals in our custody.
Ensuring migrants, including children with infants in our custody, have their basic needs met is in line with the administration's commitment to ensuring safe, orderly, and humane processes at our border.
CPB complies with all applicable regulations for the purchase of products used in our facilities.
Now they go on to say,
and so the Washington Post concludes, this is ridiculous faux outrage.
The shortage of baby formula is a serious issue the administration is seeking to address.
But at the same time, the administration can't be faulted for following the law, providing baby formula to undocumented immigrants.
And anyone who suggests this is a result of specific Biden policies is reckless and out of touch, and they earn four Pinocchios.
Go to hell, Washington Post.
So wait,
so the accusation is we say Biden is doing X.
And the Washington Post says that's a lie for Pinocchios.
They're doing X, but they they think it's the right thing to do.
Yes.
Yes.
So it's not a lie.
There are pallets of baby formula going to our border and being harded
for illegals.
Now, it's required by law.
However,
why would you follow that law?
Look, I don't want any babies anywhere to not have formula.
even illegals on our border.
However,
why follow that law when you're not following other laws like don't let them here in the first place?
This is, we have gone from a country where our president was America first, okay?
And everybody in the media had such a problem.
America first, that's so hate-mongering.
Oh my gosh.
We are literally now America last.
This guy, this is honestly, this is what you do if you hate your country country and your fellow countrymen.
This is what you do.
You have food shortages, you have baby formula shortages, you apply the law at the border
on baby formula, but you don't apply the law and you have millions of people coming in.
And when you're struggling, it's the time to make sure those border laws are even more
strict, right?
Like to make make sure that we don't have resources that our people need applied in the wrong areas.
We are about to pay the highest gas price anyone in America has ever paid.
Yesterday, we found out that the Biden administration decided to not auction off leases at a very, very oil-rich area.
They decided, no, you know what?
We're not going to auction those leases.
And instead, we are tapping into our our strategic oil reserve we're on the verge of war and they're tapping into the strategic oil reserve they're not replacing any of it they can't replace any of it and they're not opening it up for america they're sending our strategic petroleum over to europe
America first?
No, this is America last.
You only do this if you hate your country.
And I'm sorry, that is apparent.
And I don't say, they're not saying, well, yes, actually they are.
Many are saying that.
Biden's not saying that.
And they would, ah, how dare you, 1,800 Pinocchios on Glenn Beck.
I'm judging you by what you do.
You want to judge Christians, and you can, rightly so, judge Christians, as really
a lot of them are hypocrites.
A lot of us, a lot of us.
We say one thing, we do another.
Okay, so we're hypocrites.
But we try, many of us, try to be better.
Your actions are everything you're doing
is destroying our nation.
And your learning curve is beyond flat.
Your learning curve goes down.
It gets worse every day.
So
I don't know what to say.
Let's just start calling a spade a spade.
And that is the truth.
This administration, every single policy is helping to destroy this nation.
And, you know, judging by your actions, you hate America.
And America comes last.
By the way,
just to give you some real news from the Babylon B,
reports yesterday poured in that thousands of babies have been smuggling themselves into Ukraine, dressed as Ukrainian soldiers.
The refugee infants say they are seeking leftovers from the federal aid Biden has sent over to Ukraine.
Other babies at the border, the oldest baby speaking for the group through a baby translator, said, we trust our leaders to prioritize aid distribution as they did with the billions to promote worldwide gender equity, billions in weapons as a going away present for the Taliban in Afghanistan, or this breathtaking act of generosity amid America's most severe recession in years.
This
is sad.
The only thing that's absurd about it is that it's a baby saying that.
But
it's true.
It's true.
It's breathtaking.
We've been so generous to the Taliban.
We are now so generous to the people of Ukraine.
And I like that.
I mean, I like the fact that America is always the first to help,
but not at our expense.
How are we going to help anybody when we're crippled?
How is this?
How are we going to be the most charitable nation on earth?
When you don't own anything, you don't have anything.
When you can't travel, you know, they're talking now about this summer probably going in, possibly, going into gas rationing.
If you can't afford to drive across the country,
if you can't afford to go on vacation in your car,
you're not truly free.
You are not free
when it is government caused.
Look,
there's no such thing as
you have a guaranteed right to be able to fill up your gas tank.
That's not possible.
But when the the government intentionally sabotages the oil and gas industry, well, they are taking away your God-given right to free movement.
Just buy $109,000 Tesla.
If you just have a Tesla, I mean, Stephen Colbert has one.
Why don't you have one?
Yeah, let me tell you something.
I think Ricky Gervais came up with the, he didn't know this, but have you seen his show Afterlife?
No, it is hysterical, very dark, but hysterical, just hysterical.
At one point, he's a reporter, he and his photographer go out.
There's this little teeny newspaper, and they always just do stories about local people in the news in England.
And he and his photographer go out at one point because, well, it's a baby milk episode.
And this woman has decided
she can do all kinds of things.
Listen to this scene.
Well, I didn't breastfeed this time, not convenient.
Obviously, I was still lactating, so I thought, waste not, want not.
So I expressed and started making rice puddings.
Out of your breast milk.
Good idea.
And it's more natural if you think about it, isn't it?
For people to eat a pudding made from human milk.
That's what we're used to, isn't it?
When we're babies, maybe.
So I kept expressing.
Making rice puddings.
Do other people eat these?
Yeah, they lap it up.
And they know it's your breast milk.
Yeah.
Who eats these?
Mr.
Crosby at number five.
He can't get enough.
I mean, I can't make huge puddings.
Sure.
Sometimes I have to top it up with cow's milk.
Right.
Anyway, do you want to try?
Nah, I'm fine.
Thank you.
The photographer.
Oh, God.
Are you okay?
No, it's the sight of him.
Just
slurping up the button.
labrador.
Oh god.
Oh god.
Change the subject.
So for the bread, I use my own vaginal yeast.
Thank you.
You never need to use your own vaginal yeast to make bread.
If you're making bread, oh, we run out of yeast.
Oh, I know.
I can just forget it.
I'll go to the shops.
We'll get a lovely note.
You've still got that milk.
So, I mean,
we got a plan for food shortages.
This is how they're going to do it now?
Yeah, I think so.
I would not be surprised to see Biden propose it.
Oh, wait until I tell you something else that they're now doing at Mattel.
And, you know, I don't have a problem with this, but you know the slippery, you know where this is going to end.
I'll give you that story in 60 seconds.
Who are the entrepreneurs of tomorrow?
They're They're trying to answer that question, looking at the state of decaying in our public education system and the fact that kids are not being raised to risk anymore.
Don't skin your knee, let alone risk enough to start your own business.
There's a growing number of kids out there who are getting the right message, kids who are reviving the notion of opening that lemonade stand, except they They now have the internet, kids who are starting up the lawnmowing business, kids who are starting the online merchandise store, kids who are already on the path to shape the future in a positive way.
If you think that this is inspiring
and you think kids need to be inspired by
entrepreneurs their age, look no further than the pages of the Tuttle Times.
It's a magazine dedicated to teaching our children about entrepreneurship and other freedom-related things.

10 seconds, station ID.
Oh, man.
So
Mattel is is coming out now with inclusive dolls,
including prosthetic leg Barbie,
and, you know,
Barbie with hearing aids.
And
Ken with the skin condition Vitiligo.
Skin condition dolls?
Yeah, skin condition dolls.
Now, again, I guess you could see if you were a kid that had one of these conditions.
I don't know.
Would you want a doll with the same condition?
I want the fatso ken.
All the kens I ever saw were in good shape.
Yeah, well,
it's disgusting.
I want fatso ken.
Yeah.
So
where's beer gut, Ken?
I don't know.
Where's the actual Ken?
Let me tell you.
See, this is.
Where's Ken 10 years into this thing with Barbie where he's sick of her?
Right.
And he's got a beer gut, and he hasn't, you know, he's got ears.
He's not fixing the RV.
The RV.
That's what he's doing.
Yeah.
That's what he's doing.
And trying to get away.
Right.
Exactly right.
Because Barbie, she was great when, you know, she was nine feet tall and weighed 110 pounds.
Right.
But now,
you know, she's
it's not looking trailer trash.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
And you know, this is going to end in
binary Barbie, you know, or
you know, whatever.
Oh, I'm shocked they don't have that already.
Yeah, I'm shocked.
Non-binary Barbie.
So why would you say we non-binary?
Non-binary Barbie.
Yes, you're right.
I have some suggestions for Mattel.
Okay.
Now,
some might find these a little harsh, but I'm, I mean, for instance, the abortion Barbie.
Doesn't already have that one in Texas?
Yeah.
You
just flush out the pieces of the lumps and clumps of cells,
and then the kids can see if they can make anything other than a dead baby with them.
Wow, that's a little dark.
That's a little dark.
It's a dark one to start with.
Well, I could have started with this one.
How about 88% teen trans ken?
88%
teen transpirantal drugs
and experimental surgery and a noose in case the experts were wrong.
And Ken was part of the 88% that would have grown out of his dysphoria.
Wow,
you got darker.
Well, you know, if you're offended by that joke, maybe you should pay attention to what's actually happening with our kids.
I'm
just saying.
Then there's, you know, because everybody's getting into the boat.
So the Scooby-Doo people, I'm just suggesting some dolls for them.
You have San Francisco Shaggy, which lives in craps in the street.
Then you have SM Fred,
because he can do all kinds of things with that neckerchief.
Then you have genderqueer Daphne,
in transition Scrappy, and Velma.
Just Velma's just Velma.
Just Velma.
That's the same.
I mean, she actually.
I think this started in universities with Velma studies.
Really?
I do.
You know, what is she?
Why is she always wearing a turtleneck?
Does she have an Adam's apple?
Does she not have an Adam?
We don't know.
We don't know.
That was what the mystery van was really all about.
The ghost thing?
No, they were in the van and they're like, okay, Velma, what the hell are you?
I mean, which one of us are you attracted to?
Seriously.
That's what was happening.
That's pretty, that's deep analysis of the Scooby-Doo universe.
I had that analysis probably when I was eight.
Yeah.
Is there
at some point, do these companies need to try to develop products that they would sell a lot of?
Like, I don't know, would this be a, would any of these things be a popular product?
Are they even Vital Igo can?
Right.
Like, that can't be a thing that we're like, I got to get that one.
Abortion Barbie.
You, the people who are shouting their abortion, they should be running out to get these parts, give them to all of them.
That one probably would be popular, actually.
It would be.
That one actually would be one they would try to get.
But it would be kind of,
I don't know, eye-opening as you just, there's nothing else you can make with those pieces other than a dead baby.
What about a Volkswagen?
Nope.
Can't make a Volkswagen.
Really?
Yeah.
Toaster?
Nope.
Nothing.
Nothing.
The pieces only make up a baby who's dead.
And so
it might be confusing to kids whose parents are shouting their abortion.
But if your parent is shouting abortion for their abortion,
what isn't confusing in your life?
Oh, is that too dark or too real?
It's got to be confusing.
I am surprised.
They say something like 60% of abortions are mothers who already have a child.
Which, I mean, if you find out about that later on, aren't you kind of like, wow,
was I that bad?
Like, was I, did I not clean my room that many days in a row?
Like, what?
Wow, mom.
I mean, we, I thought we had a cool thing here, and apparently, apparently not.
By the way, anybody who is like,
slippery slope.
I mean, have we not proven the slippery slope to be actual?
I mean, with absolutely
rare, safe,
and legal is shout your abortion.
Okay.
Gender, non-gender bathrooms is now men can have babies.
Medical marijuana is now you can have it hot just anywhere you want.
Again, like some of these things you might not even disagree with, but like the argument explicitly when
medical marijuana was coming into fashion was it would never turn into recreational.
Now it's just like just happened.
Remember when they said we were crazy because we said you're going to start tearing down George Washington statue.
Yeah.
Okay.
This is from the Washington Post opinion page today.
George Washington University needs a new name.
From the what post?
The Washington Post.
They're saying the George What Washington?
No, I'm sure they're thinking that it was just named after the city, which I'm sure the city was named after something entirely different than George Washington.
Yeah, probably the state.
It's probably named after the state.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So what are you doing today to make sure your information is safe on the internet because me i'm doing zip and i'm guessing you're doing zip on it as well now i'm doing zip on it because i've got lifelock if you don't have lifelock and you're doing zip about it well then there's my there might be a problem coming i see
a dark event in your future
Here's the thing.
Cybercrime is going to affect all of us at some point.
And all of this information is out about all of us, waiting to be assembled by people people on the dark web.
That is where I don't even know how to access the dark web.
Do you?
I mean, I wouldn't even want to search.
How do I access the dark web?
Anyway,
that's where the bad guys are assembling all of the information that is out about you.
And that's where the people at LifeLock, that's where they live nine to five.
And if somebody has your information and tries to destroy it,
they'll alert you and got a team to fix it with you.

This is the Glenbeck program.
Welcome to Friday.
Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed is joining.
When he walked into the studio,
his eyes immediately ran to my beautiful, beautiful shirt today.
Yeah, they did.
Yeah.
They did.
They began judging you instantly.
He was still in, literally in the door frame.
Didn't stop, but I know Pat so well.
And I said, you're judging me for my shirt, aren't you?
And you said, oh,
is it that obvious?
And I'm like, oh, yeah, it is, Pat.
It is.
It is
um but uh my shirt distracted him from a couple of the other things that happened to be in the studio today um the only thing we're going to show you right now it's going to be show and tell in uh the third hour today
um uh but uh right now i guess you can tweet at us what's in the box
uh what's in the box is probably
It is game-changing.
It changed everything in the world.
Would you agree with that?
Without
that thing, the world would be a very different place.
Correct.
Very different.
And I would say in a much, much more negative.
Oh, is it the Dean Cayman
little scooter thing?
No.
Is it that?
Is that what it is?
No.
You just have to unfold it when you take it out of the box.
No.
No?
Uh-uh.
Okay, because that changed the civilization.
Remember that?
Do you remember when...
Yeah, that is, what is that thing called?
The scooter?
The segue.
Segue.
Yeah, when that came out, if you don't remember, because we were everybody oh it's going to change civilization as we knew oh yeah that like bill gates was in dean kaymen's office and he saw it and he came out said that changes everything
it will change cities the way they're built it'll change everything
and the only thing it changed was the way mall cops get around the mall that's about it it and not really even that i don't think not even that i mean it changed that one movie called mall cop there was a sequel there was a sequel
Okay, so two movies were
entirely changed.
Two movies, and that's it.
It is, I will say, it's good for tourists who normally would take a walking tour.
Yeah, that's right.
They can take a segue tour.
Yeah, that's much better.
There's something behind me that we're going to show you in hour number three that Pat can see.
That's really beautiful.
That is
amazing.
Amazing.
Amazing.
And it was,
I rescued it.
I like to think I rescued this.
Everything that,
you know,
I started collecting American heroes, I mean, sorry, American items, because I think we're really actually dealing with people who will destroy history.
They are, and I think we're going to start seeing stuff.
You know, there's a, I can't tell you what the item is because we're still trying to get it.
But there is an item that is one of a kind and really the only thing that testifies to this happened, the only thing remaining.
And it went up for auction and it was pulled at the last minute because the owner found out that two of the bidders were trying to destroy it.
They only wanted to own it, to destroy it.
And that kind of stuff is starting to happen.
And it is terrifying.
Seems like an expensive parlor game.
Yeah, well, this is the only piece.
That was the thing that's sitting behind me now.
That was one of my concerns.
Truly one of my concerns.
Is
when you find out where it came from
and why it went up for auction.
I mean, would you be surprised if that was destroyed at some point?
No, we have seen similar types of things happen.
Yes, we have.
Yes, we have.
So show and tell today.
And Pat Gray, welcome to the program.
How are you?
I'm great.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Yeah.
And you've been
sitting.
Well, you are the, I mean, not only the cookie king with Kexie Cookies, but you are also sitting on just a mountain of baby formula.
Oh.
Yeah.
You've been hoarding that stuff.
I've been hoarding it forever.
Well, I immediately thought of.
Because I had babies, and it's been 20 years since I've had a baby.
Well, you had a baby.
Well, my wife had the baby, actually, but I
could have a baby.
I could if I wanted.
Men can, of course,
have a baby.
Yeah.
And I immediately thought of you and your hoarding of baby formula when I heard the White House blame parents for hoarding baby formula.
That's unbelievable.
Yeah.
I thought, gee, you know, huh?
I never thought of it that way.
Let's blame the parents of babies who are concerned about having baby formula.
Let's blame them.
And they've been trying to prepare and make sure they had enough baby formula.
Yeah.
By the way, this is why you don't talk.
I don't, I don't keep food storage.
I did.
I used to as well.
But I lost it.
You stopped it?
Yeah, I lost a, I mean, almost all of my
fell into the same body of water that my guns fell in.
Shut up, me too.
I was planning on fishing for a very long time, like a year for my whole family.
And then I loaded that on the boat.
I knew that that was a great risk.
People would want that.
So I loaded all my guns on the boat and then I was just fishing.
And lo and behold,
you know, I got a fish and I started, it started to tip the boat and everything
went into the drink.
And it's lost forever.
Wow.
That is a very similar fishing trip to what I experienced.
That's crazy.
And they're gone.
All of it.
Well, I'm going to.
I have a lot of formula to be in.
Yeah.
You know, all the food, all the food storage, baby formula, guns, all in the same body of water.
Gone.
That's that.
Because the only reason I say that is because I i also
shut up yeah i had no i had what what are the odds same what are the odds same body of water
same body of water yeah and when i get home i'm calling the sheriff to report it because i want to make sure they know it was
i remember body of water too i don't remember which one but i know it was deep and all i know is
it was a lake or an ocean mine was in a lock and i will tell you that i have seen the photos of nessie
and i don't know what she eats well you realize how she's that big because she keeps eating all the food storage at the bottom of the bottom of the lake.
And she can shoot you with her eyes now.
I'm guessing.
I'm guessing.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I just wouldn't go around or go looking in that lake.
Well, Nessie just wants her privacy, be able to occasionally pop up and show her head.
And instead,
people are always spying on her and invading her private space.
So she's got weapons now.
You never want to violate private space unless the teacher says they can, and let's just keep that between us.
Okay.
Yeah, that's
that can violate the private space.
Totally comfortable.
Let me tell you,
I was planning on taking three days to go over and look for all the stuff in the lake, but then I realized
Hate-Mongering America does not have this law yet.
The Spanish government is now passing a law offering three days of menstrual leave.
So you can join wandering menstruals?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
I mean, it's Spain.
You know, they have those guys.
Yeah.
So it's for anybody who experiences severe period pain, otherwise known as, according to the article,
dysmenorrhea.
Dysmenor.
Dysmenorrhea.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't want anything that ends in area.
You know what I mean?
I'm even kind of worried about chorea,
you know?
But we should probably not call it that.
I'm just, I'm comfortable with uncomfortable cramps.
But now anybody who, you know, has
painful cramps and men can get pregnant.
So ow, ow, ow.
Oh, my gosh, these cramps.
And it's what's weird is they never happen on the weekend.
Really?
Yeah.
Usually only during the weekday.
That is weird.
So I may be out for a few days.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
You have them too, don't you?
Oh, all the time.
Let me ask you this.
All the time.
Did you see the
memo
from Netflix?
Yeah,
it was encouraging.
This is.
Right?
This is really good.
This is really good.
Netflix had a culture memo
in a section called Artistic Expression that states it will not censor specific artists or voices, even if employees consider the content harmful.
They said, if you find it hard to support
our content breadth, which is so wide,
I get those conservative shows.
Oh, all the time.
There's almost too many of them.
Too many.
There's almost too many.
It goes from all the way from ultra-liberal to socialist.
The whole spectrum.
The whole spectrum.
Yeah.
And once in a while, just a deep, deep progressive.
Oh, it's some communism.
Some deep communism.
All right.
Some fascism.
It's good.
Netflix may not be the best place for you if you don't support our breadth.
The memo states that employees
may be required to work on projects that they perceive to be harmful.
And if they have a hard time accepting their work assignment, they might want to consider working somewhere else.
I honestly thought that's how all jobs worked.
You know, that's really what I believe.
Yeah, and I kind of thought that's how it worked.
Can you imagine if Stu
said to you and me, Pat, you got to change your show because what you're doing is harmful, and I cannot work around it.
Oh, well, well,
see who's got the problem here.
It's not me.
Not our problem.
Bye-bye.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, but that kind of changed.
It seemed to change because Disney's employees kind of forced them and forced their hand.
But this, I really think, they say this is because of the Dave Chappelle thing.
And that wasn't, I mean, that's not exactly.
That wasn't.
That was just common sense.
That wasn't conservative.
That was just common sense.
He's not a conservative.
Decency.
And
so I think that this is what they say
this came out because of that.
However, it's been several months, hasn't it, since that came out?
Several months.
What's happened in between?
Disney.
What's happened in between?
Netflix getting canceled.
Their
subscriptions are way down.
Their stock prices are way down.
It's funny.
When conservatives actually play the game that has been played on us for decades,
they respond.
Isn't that weird?
What are we learning here?
What are we learning?
Their stock price goes down.
They start losing money.
And all of a sudden they're like, you know what?
We're not as inclusive as we thought we were.
The Spotify one is particularly, I think, and this was not really, I don't think, conservatives stepping up, but the Spotify one was an interesting example because it just showed that you can survive it.
They didn't come out and say, they didn't even stop talking out about issues.
They just said, you know, no,
we're just going to do what we're doing.
And now, and part of this, I think, is because they're very disconnected to U.S.
politics.
This is a European company, and they weren't as involved in our back and forth over that stuff.
And they just sort of said, yeah, no, we'll just, we'll just, you know.
They don't have half of their employees that, you know, had worked for the Obama administration.
Yeah, only a third.
But it's interesting because they just kind of didn't do anything.
You know, they did criticize.
They came out.
They pulled off episodes.
I mean, they weren't perfect by any means, but they just didn't over.
There's no change.
They didn't overreact.
There is a change that is happening.
I don't know if you saw this.
BlackRock, who is ESG Central, because
of Ramaswamy's new
hedge fund
that he is introducing, which is against ESGs,
BlackRock
voted for fewer climate shareholder provisions.
They said, you know, it might be, in our assessment,
maybe we shouldn't micromanage companies quite so tightly.
Really?
Really, really.
Wow.
Now, I don't believe it from BlackRock at all.
That is hard.
But
they're at least saying these things now.
The tide is changing.
We are winning.
And when you have a revolutionary with no hope of re-election and they're in power, I warn you, that's when they feel cornered and they become extraordinarily dangerous.
Back in just a minute.
Rough Greens.
Kurt writes in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.
Our five-year-old healer named Pepper loves Rough Greens on her food.
After about a week of using it, we noticed that she seemed to have more energy and was wanting to play more.
Rough Greens have turned back the clock on her activity level.
She's acting more puppy-like.
Her coat is super shiny.
She scratches less now as well.
You know what?
We didn't even know this was a problem.
When your dog licks their feet,
that's a sign that they have some deficiency, and I don't know what, but that was the first thing Dr.
Black told me when I started with, he asked, does Uno lick his feet?
And I'm like, yeah, a lot.
He's like, yeah, it's deficiency.
What if you have a president that licks his feet?
In the middle of a press conference.
Rough Greens, confident that your dog dog is going to love it.
They have a special deal for you.

Welcome to the Blenbeck program.
Bill O'Reilly is coming up in just a second.
I want to talk to him about this new poll that shows that apparently
widespread birth control access is popular if
abortion is outlawed.
I'm willing to make that trade.
I don't know about you.
I'm good with it.
Oh my gosh.
How many condoms would you like delivered to your home on a daily basis?
Right.
A thousand?
If you'd like 1,000 condoms to your home every day and you want to trade that for abortion, 100% in.
How about a car?
A car?
Would you like a car?
We'll fill it with pills.
It will be powered by spermicides.
Yes.
And that's what you want.
And that's a spermicide-driven car.
We will pay for it entirely.
If you want want to start a condom company, we will buy all of the condoms from you and you can profit from it.
You want to be
fade or neutered.
I'm willing.
I'm willing to, and then do it by professionals, not vets.
And look, we agree with you that you should not have children.
We just don't want you to start the process and then kill them.
No, seriously.
So seriously, I am not for government programs, and I think the churches would be more than happy to provide all of this.
Make it
make it available everywhere.
What a trade-off that would be.
Stop killing children will provide birth control.
And you can tell the left needs to figure out a way to expand this outsort of the outside of the shout-your abortion people.
They're trying to say, well, this is actually about
birth control.
But they are expanding also.
Now they are the ones giving the transgender kids the drugs at Planned Parenthood.
They are expanding.
This is the Glenn Back Program.
Got no room to compromise.
We gotta stand together, it's the corresponding
stand up straight and hold the line.
It's a new day of time to rise.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Back program.
Well, yesterday the White House blamed parents for the baby formula shortage.
The Washington Post came out and said for Pinocchios that the Biden administration has shipped pallets of baby formula down to the border.
Although it actually said, yes, they did do that,
but they were required by law to do that.
And so you can't hold them responsible for upholding the law.
No,
but can we hold them responsible for selectively upholding the law?
Bill O'Reilly is here.
He is, by the way, an 18 number one New York Times bestseller.
His book, Killing the Killers, just came out this week.
It's number one.
I don't know how you do that on the New York Times.
He's number one in all of the lists, but the New York Times,
he might be a secret progressive.
Number one book in the country now, Killing the Killers by Bill O'Reilly.
It's a great book, by the way.
He's coming up in 60.
So I had a really disturbing conversation with
an industrialist, and we were talking about,
you know, the future of our country.
And he talked about immediately our schools, what we're teaching, how kids don't go out and play baseball anymore.
So, you know, they go out and play in a, you know, in a league, but they don't go out.
And they have to organize it themselves they have to be the referee themselves they have to make the calls and settle fights and everything he's like they're not learning anything to actually
be brought to a business world and they're not they're they're being sheltered so they're not risking How do we get the next generation to risk and understand how exciting it is and how good it is to be an entrepreneur and follow your path?
Well, the Tuttle Twins have a magazine that comes out monthly.
It's called the Tuttle Times, and it is dedicated to teaching your kids about entrepreneurship and other freedom-related things.
And they show kids that are just inspiring, kids that have started their own businesses, who are
living the American dream at their age.

Bill O'Reilly, congratulations on your number one status.
You deserve it.
Killing the killers.
Thank you.
It is on the New York Times list as number one, and that's not easy to do, as everybody knows.
I got the word on Thursday.
I was in Manhattan,
and I immediately went to St.
Patrick's Cathedral, where my parents were married, and I said a prayer.
I mean, even though this is the 18th time I've been number one with the books,
it's still to me almost a magical occurrence that that happens.
We put a lot of hard work in these books, there's no doubt we do, and they're good and they're interesting to read, and you'll learn a lot.
But I don't take this for granted, Beck.
I mean, it's not like I take
being on with Beck on Friday for granted either, but this more so.
The number one thing is
you're you're, you know,
our relationship on air is uh is fun.
Uh uh but you wrote a very nice letter when you found out you were very humble, which I th I really thought Makada had written the email
because you're very humble and and it was really nice to hear.
And I was so happy.
I'm so happy for the success.
Well, look, people
they don't understand how hard this is to do, number one.
And when I get a guy like you who's got millions of listeners and he says he likes the book and people know that you barely read any books that means a lot and it's
I know and thank you for using me anyway
so Bill what is the number one story this week in your
the total collapse you know it can I want to advance this story now the Biden story so it's beyond any kind of debate if you in your life have a person who still thinks that Joe Biden is doing a good job as president
then you might want to reevaluate that relationship because it's a delusional relationship.
You're not dealing with a person who's got a grasp on reality.
So when a wholesale price index comes in at 11.3%,
and nobody knows what that is, but it's what all of the vendors that you use, your grocery store, your 7-Eleven, your Subway Sandwich Shop, whatever it may be, those are the wholesale vendors.
When they're paying 11.3% more for their product, guess who's going to have to pay that down the road?
Right.
Okay, guess.
Maybe that's us.
So it's not explained.
The media doesn't explain this.
They're embarrassed now.
The media is just embarrassed because they were all behind Biden.
They were in a tank for Biden.
They never warned anyone about Biden.
Beck and I did.
I remember those conversations in the fall of 2020 with you.
We both said, you may not like Trump, and there are many good reasons not to like him.
But if you put this guy in, we're all going to suffer.
And it's exactly what has happened.
So now we have to advance the story.
Because people, if you don't earn a lot of money, if you are a service worker, if you are in a union, okay, your salary isn't going up in correspondence with the prices.
So therefore, your lifestyle is going down.
We all understand this.
So Bill, you know, we're sitting here
today.
I just don't think there is any doubt.
We've gone from America first, which the left and the media thought was just so horrible.
We have literally gone to America last.
And I said, the people who are designing the policies for Biden, it is clear they hate America.
They hate America.
Yeah, I know this is circulating around on the internet that Biden, in conjunction with Obama, are trying to tank the country.
I'm not even including him.
I don't think he's that important, in my opinion.
It is the people who are writing, whoever it is that are designing these policies.
You cannot be this wrong this much.
Yes, you can.
Oh, you can.
Okay.
So on the right-wing websites, the conservative, you know, the real hardcore right, they basically say this is intentional, to tank the economy so that socialism rises up and the progressive left gets what they want.
We whip out all traditions in America.
We whip out the capitalistic systems that are doing it on purpose.
I don't think that's happening.
What I think is happening is James Buchanan is back.
All right?
So the White House is supposed to be haunted on the second floor.
That's the residences.
And all the past presidents are supposed to be floating around in apparitions.
So I write today in my message today on BillOreilly.com that Joe Biden should summon James Buchanan.
Who was James Buchanan?
Nobody knows because that would require history teachers to actually teach, and that's, of course, not happening in America.
15th president of the United States, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, lifelong bachelor.
Many people feel that he was gay.
That's probably true.
All right.
That's his social problem.
Gets elected president after the immortal Pierce, Franklin Pierce, who was drunk pretty much every day he was in a White House, Franklin Pierce.
A lot of wine flowing.
So Pierce goes out.
Buchanan comes in.
Buchanan then allows the South to loot and steal all the federal armories, to take all the guns.
Buchanan does nothing.
Seven states secede in his four years.
Basically say, blank you, James Buchanan, we're leaving because we like slavery and that's what we're doing.
So then Buchanan leaves after doing nothing Beck,
nothing for four years,
allowing chaos to reign.
Lincoln comes in, Civil War, worst debacle in American history,
hundreds of thousands dead and maimed, and it's all on James Buchanan.
And then he goes back to Pennsylvania and says, oh, it wasn't my fault.
That's Biden.
That's
Biden.
When you say he did nothing, that was
the last part of Obama's term.
What Joe Biden is, or his administration is doing is not nothing.
They are, I mean, look, we are depleting our strategic oil reserves, sending the oil over to Europe, putting putting us into a very dangerous situation.
They are canceling another oil auction for
really
oil-rich property while we have the highest gas prices.
We have baby food shortages, and they're just blaming it on the kids.
While there are pallets of baby food down at the border, which are required by law, if you're going to have people, you have to make sure you can take care of the infants, and that's right.
But why are they selectively doing that law when they have an open border policy they're killing us every single way every way possible number one those kids are eating too much beck we got to cut back on that nutrition to those kids all right they're lucky they got out of the womb after biden he wouldn't have any he doesn't want any limitations on they were they're lucky they got here what are they whining about baby formula now is that what we're hearing?
Look, Biden gets in there.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
Would you and Stu agree with that?
Yeah, he definitely does not know what he's doing.
I don't think he undercompets.
He cannot administer this.
He can't do it.
People come to Biden.
They walk into the Oval Office and they say, hey,
let's cancel the pipeline because it's bad for climate change.
And Biden says, okay.
Then they come in and they say, let's not enforce border law because that's mean to the migrants.
And Biden goes, okay.
Then they say, hey,
under Trump, inflation was just 1.4%
and Trump had to deal with the COVID shutdown completely.
Now under you, it's 11%.
But let's blame COVID.
And he goes, okay,
this is a man who cannot
put
the office.
I agree with that, but
I'm talking about the people who are coming into the office.
All right, but they're not all moral.
He's not going to say, hey, Larry, you're an idiot, and the last seven things you've told me to do have been horrible for the country.
People don't understand what the word incapacitated means.
He can't make decisions on he is
whether he knows it or not he is overseeing a group of people that are in a death cult what they are doing is causing I mean look just look at the border we have now the the CDC's national vital statistics from 2021 there were 107,622 Americans between 18 and 49 that died from fentanyl Okay, that's the largest number of Americans who have died from drug overdoses ever.
And an increase of about 15%
in increase from 2020, an increase of 50%
from 2019.
Now, you've got those numbers.
Now let's look at what happened with COVID.
Same time period, 18 to 49 in 2021.
So I'm giving it at the height.
18 to 49, one year, there were only only 41,000 deaths, and we shut down everything.
Everything.
We are killing our 18 to 49-year-old adults and they don't give a flying crap.
Okay, that's all true.
But do you think Joe Biden has a sheet of paper with those stats in front of him and he's actually thinking about how to solve it?
No, but I do think, no, but I do think the people who are making policy, for instance, the safe smoking kits with the free crack pipe, Somebody put that together.
Then somebody hid it, Sake.
Somebody made the decision to hide it.
And now we do know that, yes, five cities got free crackpipes.
Listen, you can do this all day long.
Every
policy, everyone.
that the federal government has dealt with in the last 16 months has failed.
So you might think that there'd be some firings, right?
Maybe some new blood come in.
No.
Because Biden doesn't know the difference between success and failure.
See, people, when I say this, they don't believe me.
They don't believe me.
No, I think, I think
he cannot think.
I know.
He is incapable of thinking.
But
you might think that you and I disagree.
We don't.
On that part, we're in.
I don't understand that.
We're in locks.
What we're saying is these incompetent people around him doing these crazy things.
Yes.
Yes.
But nobody's going to replace them.
All right?
Because that would have to come from Biden.
Yeah.
And he doesn't know what they're doing, doesn't care particularly what they're doing.
Wants to go to Delaware and have some jello.
That's where he is.
And also spend some of his Chinese money.
All right, back with
Bill O'Reilly here in just a second.
I want to talk to you about the new press secretary, Bill, when we come back.
All right, rough greens.
Bart wrote in, My dog loves rough greens.
She has been skinny and doesn't eat much.
When I received my trial bag, I dipped a spoonful of rough greens in and held it out in front of her nose.
She immediately lunged forward like she does when I hold out a meaty treat.
I dumped the spoonful on top of her existing food.
She watched me intensely as I stirred it in.
She ate everything in her bowl in five minutes.
Thank you so much, Rough Greens.
Thank you, Bart, for trying it.
And the trial pack is free, so you can try it just to make sure your dog eats it because that's the number one thing.
I don't even know what it is, probably 10 or 20% of people who are like, my dog won't eat it.
And I know picky eaters,
but your dog...
usually loves this stuff and and your dog needs all of these things.
So you can get a free bag just to make sure your dog eats it.
And the longer you put rough greens on their food, the more changes you will see in your dog.
I am telling you, I'm still seeing changes in Udo.
In Uno.
Get your first bag free just to try out.
If you like it, all you pay for is the shipping.
Just go to roughgreens.com/slash Beck, roughgreens.com/slash Beck or call 833-Glenn33, 833-G-L-E-N-N33.

10 seconds, station ID.
Okay, so Jen Saki is now out.
I would love to hear your analysis of her quickly and then what you expect from Corine Jean Pierre.
Okay, Saki did an excellent job for Biden and a terrible job for the country, but that job now, White House press secretary, is just propaganda.
I mean, it's not like these people are going to tell anybody the truth.
They tell us what they are told to say by Ron Clain.
Ron Clain is the top advisor of Biden in the White House.
He's his chief of staff.
He tells Saki every day, this is what you're going to say.
All right, these are the anticipated questions, and here's how you answer them.
Sake goes out in an excellent manner and with authority and, you know,
condescension.
Yeah, she's arrogant, but you know, most of them are.
Come on, we all know that.
And then, but here's the thing about Saki.
Sake knows the ship, it be sinking.
And Saki knew that six months ago.
So Saki is the only person now who is benefiting from inflation.
Stay with me.
So when Saki saw that this was going to be a disaster, her people started negotiating with MSNBC
for a job.
But as inflation went up, so did her salary demands.
And she got a lot more money now than she would have gotten, I don't know, eight months ago.
So she's actually prospered.
Now, the new one
is not
nearly
as smooth
and experienced as Saki.
So she's likely to get rattled.
But if any question comes to her that she can't answer or she doesn't look good, it's going to be racist.
Yeah, well, let me tell you, she tweeted in 2016.
She said Donald Trump is a deplorable, illegitimate president.
Of course.
She called him a cheater, a criminal.
I mean, she has said some awful, awful things.
Here's one.
Brian Kemp stole the gubernatorial election from Georgians and Stacey Abrams.
She still has said that Stacey Abrams is the legitimate winner of that.
There's nobody that is intelligent at all that believes that, unless you're intelligent and you're just a bald-faced liar.
But that's what she got the job for because she delivers propaganda, and that's what they want.
They don't want anybody who's going to actually level with the folks and say, you know what, the 11.3 wholesale inflation rate, that's going to really hurt every American in the next five months.
No, but you don't have to say it that way, but you can
say the truth.
You know what I mean?
I mean, you can spin the truth, but the truth doesn't even matter with these people anymore.
Doesn't matter.
Are you going to watch Jen Saki at 9 o'clock on MSNBC?
Are you going to watch her?
Oh, my gosh.
Riveted.
Riveted.
I mean, I don't even know where MSNBC is on
the cable bus.
Yeah.
But look, this is the country we live in now.
All right.
Bill O'Reilly, his new book is Killing the Killers.
It is great.
It is the true story about
how we got the terrorists and what we did, and the truth on
enhanced interrogation and so much more.
Killing the killers available in bookstores everywhere.
Bill, thank you.
Have a great weekend.
We'll talk to you next week.
The Glenn Back Program.
Carol just wrote me in about her experience with Relief Factor.
She says, I have arthritis in my left foot.
It used to be really painful at night.
Ever since I started taking Relief Factor on a regular basis, the stiffness is remarkably better.
I am absolutely amazed.
Thank you so much.
Carol, thanks for trying it.
I mean, I don't know if you were like this, but I was.
I just didn't think it would work for me, but it does.
Relief Factor was created by doctors to help your body reduce inflammation.
That's the source of most of our pain.
And it has four different ways
it attacks inflation working together with your body.
And, you know, like obuprofen attacks it one way.
This is four different lines of attack.
And I think that's why it works when, you know, ibuprofen 800 never works for me.
Three-week quick start, developed for you $19.95.
It's a dollar a day like a trial pack.
Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor and about 70% of them go on to order more.
It's ReliefFactor.com, ReliefFactor.com, or call 800 for Relief.
1-800, the number 4, relief, relief factor.com.

I have to tell you,
the Amber Heard, Johnny Depp thing, they deserve each other, quite honestly.
I mean, I know very little about it, except there was Poop in a Shoe or Poop in the Bed.
On the bed, yeah.
Maybe the shoe was on the bed.
I thought it was
Poop in the Bed and Poop in a Shoe.
I'm not really sure.
I don't really care.
It is fascinating fascinating to watch this thing play out, though, because most Americans, you know, not the smarter Americans,
just care so deeply about Johnny Depp or Amber Heard or blah, blah, blah.
Well, I read the first article that I cared about from Azra Nomani, who is a frequent guest on this program, good friend of the program.
She wrote it in the Federalist, How the Washington Post and ACLU Helped Amber Heard Attack Johnny Depp.
Listen to this because it's amazing.
Azra is on with us now.
Hi, Azra.
How are you?
Oh, good.
How are you?
You can hear me clinking away while I warm some water so I don't cough through the interview.
Yes.
Thank you for being on with me.
Absolutely.
What a great article.
Can you lay this out?
Because I don't think most people even know any of this.
Yeah.
Important.
And I'm glad that you, you know, are had a full disclosure that you don't care on the celebrity.
I don't.
Yeah.
That's fine.
That's absolutely cool.
But the thing is, this is so important as a window into money, politics, and Hollywood.
Okay.
That's what's so critical here.
So what we have playing out is our two celebrities, right, with a terrible relationship, both of them,
you know, unhealthy.
Yeah, deeply broken, both.
Deeply broken, exactly.
And so, you know, our humanity has to extend to all people.
Sure.
Well, then
what we have is
a nonprofit a quote-unquote nonprofit right the ACLU 501c3 multi-million dollar organization right that has lost its way according to even an Atlantic article last week
taking advantage of this story and catapulting then Amber Heard to become become their poster girl for women's rights.
Okay, so now they did this.
Didn't she say that she was giving, I think, $3 million to the ACLU from the divorce settlement, right?
Yes.
And she only gave like 500 grand and then others started to pay for her.
But yeah, so what I did is, so to back up a little bit, right?
I, as you are, like we've written op-eds, right?
We know how they are written we know how they are placed we know how they are promoted so what I did is I just analyzed how it is that Amber Heard's op-ed appeared in the Washington Post and I broke it down into six phases and the first phase was establishing her credibility because you know at the end of every op-ed you have two lines that are in italics and they establish who the person is and why they are a subject matter expert, right?
So what happened is that Amber Heard, her italics says that she is now, you know, working as this ACLU women's rights advocate.
Well, it was a classic pay-to-play operation where she said that she was going to donate her $7 million
of divorce settlement, you know, this altruistic act to the ACLU and the children's hospital in LA.
But indeed, indeed, just as you just said, she only donated a very small portion.
And then the court testimony reveals that, in fact, Johnny Depp paid $100,000 directly to the ACLU because he's like, why have a middleman, you know, in this operation if she's going to be so altruistic.
And then who does she end up also having donate?
She had none other than her next boyfriend, Elon Musk.
And so that's the first phase.
She established her credibility, and the ACLU established her credibility.
But behind the scenes was this classic pay-to-play.
And explain what happened there.
Oh, my gosh.
Okay, so they've established her as an ambassador for women's rights.
And now they have,
this is, I'm going to take people back to the fall of 2018.
It's a long time ago, but just think about, we have President Trump, okay, in office.
So think about that.
He's been in office a couple years now.
We have just had
Betsy DeVos named early on in the administration.
And we have this little thing called Title IX.
And that was a very controversial issue.
It's supposed to have given women equal rights in schools, right?
But what happened is that through politics, it ended up becoming a hit job, which is a term that you're going to hear again on men oftentimes on college campuses, where they were not given due process.
And so
you're going to hear a theme here now because what they did is in
November 2018, a communication staffer for the ACLU sends a pitch to Amber Heard's PR person and says, hey, wouldn't it be great if Amber Heard wrote an op-ed and Title IX was one of the issues that this communication staffer says.
And let me actually quote that memo.
I'd like your and Amber's thoughts on doing an op-ed in which she discusses the way in which survivors of gender-based violence have been made less safe under the Trump administration and how people can take action.
If she feels comfortable, she can interweave her personal story saying how painful it is as as a gender-uh-based violent survivor to witness these setbacks.
Yes.
Okay.
It's
the
so you and I know as writers, and I'll give folks context, that I taught writing the reported op-ed at Georgetown University to students.
So I've been writing op-eds myself for 20 years, and I taught it.
And one of the first things that I always taught students, as you know too, Glenn, is give people a personal connection.
That's exactly what they did.
And I didn't study my rhetoric, but later in life, I learned pathos, ethos, logos, right?
So you have to have logic, you have to have rationality, and you have to have the personal story.
And that's what they then grabbed for Amber Heard to amplify.
So I've got about three minutes to finish this story.
So the writer, the ACLU, writes back, tried to gather your fire and your rage rage and really interesting analysis and shape that into op-ed form.
I hope it sounds true to you.
Your lawyers should review this for the way I skirted around talking about your marriage.
So
she didn't write it.
It was presented to her.
Yes.
And then the rest of the story, it's so important, is the ACLU communication staff pitched it to Michael Larrabee, op-ed editor at the Washington Post.
He should have known better.
They should have known better.
And they are complicit in this hit job on Johnny Depp.
And this is not just about celebrity, but this is about the abuse of power by a nonprofit organization and a journalism operation.
complete breach of ethics.
There's no transparency in who wrote this piece.
And if any one of my students had presented an assignment written by another student, they would have failed, right?
And so they owe Johnny Depp an apology, their readers an apology, and they should just retract the op-ed.
But it's an important critical window into how it is that these special interest groups place their
subject matter experts in there to push their own talking points.
Azra Nomani, thank you so much.
Oh my gosh, thank you, Glenn.
The Washington Post did publish this in their opinion section under the headline, Amber Heard, I spoke up against sexual violence and faced our culture's wrath.
And that has to change.
There's a lot of things the Washington Post should maybe take under advisement, in my opinion, which I actually author,
that
have to change.
So here's the good news.
If your car breaks down, you'll have the right tools on hand.
I can,
I know I'm going to do it, not because I have a toolbox, not because I, you know, I can't, I could take it apart, but I'd never put it back together.
Car Shield is going to take care of it.
Car Shield will cover the covered repair.
They will pick me up on the side of the road if my car breaks down.

Hey, show and tell.
This is a time you really want Blaze TV, just for fun purposes.
Coming up in just a a few, I'm going to be doing show and tell.
There's some items that I have been blessed to be able to acquire and hold for the Mercury Museum and History Vault.
And I'm going to show you some things that you just won't believe.
Some really cool stuff.
Really cool stuff.
You'll be able to watch it on Blaze TV, and I'll describe it if you happen to be listening to the podcast or radio.
One thing I am really, really tired of this week is
everyone saying that cryptocurrency is over.
Oh, yeah.
Is it that time of year again?
It is that time of year.
It's that time of year.
It's over.
We all say that.
It's never coming back.
Never coming back.
It's over.
Now, all of these people have written this article already years ago.
Every time cryptocurrency goes down, they write the same article.
And it always says like crypto is dead.
All the people,
they find one person who bought at the absolute peak.
It is down 50%.
And they highlight their life and how it's been destroyed.
And this is over, and it's never going to come back.
And it's amazing because none of it coincides with anything of anyone in the government.
Their wishes and what they're trying to do.
No, everything they do is fine.
But so I decided to look back.
Now that we're at a low point here, right?
Like we're down.
Cryptocurrency has had a really bad year.
How bad has it been?
And let's compare it to a normal investment.
Okay.
Okay.
So here we go.
All right.
If you had invested $10,000
in the Dow Jones Industrial Average one year ago,
you would have $9,630 today.
So you're down a little bit.
Okay.
But not a lot.
All right.
Just a little bit.
Sure.
Now, people would note that if you invested that same $10,000 a year ago in Bitcoin, you would be down a little more.
You would actually only have $8,500.
So that's $1,000 difference and pretty bad, right?
That's bad.
So one of the big currencies.
We should stop there and not look at any other time windows.
It's interesting because that seems to be what all of these articles are predicated on.
That's weird.
If we look at one, the worst possible time window for cryptocurrency, it looks pretty bad.
But I thought maybe
how long do you invest in?
Is it always a year?
Is it less than a year?
My idea was when you invest in something, you're usually holding it for multiple years.
That was what I thought was.
Sure.
So let's look back two years ago.
Now, the two years ago
time frame is interesting because it would basically encapsulate what we would call the inflationary period.
Two years ago was May 2020.
So this is when we're just starting to dump trillions of dollars
into the economy.
And people
do, and they can't do anything.
They can't do anything.
So this is when inflation starts churning.
This is the two-year period of inflation.
We've been told in these crypto is dead columns that cryptocurrency is not working as a hedge against inflation because look at this one day where inflation numbers came out high and cryptocurrency went down.
Got it.
Instead, let's look at the entire inflationary period from two years ago.
If you invested in the Dow, $10,000, you would have $13,400.
It's a good return.
It's a great return.
Much better than a bank account or something.
Great return.
If you invested that same $10,000 in Bitcoin two years ago, you would have $33,500.
That's better.
That's better.
That's better.
That's better.
Yeah, I wasn't sure.
I'm not good at math.
But crypto is dead.
Remember that.
$30,000.
$33,000 or $13,000.
Which one would you rather have?
I think I would rather have the $33,000.
Okay, but maybe that's just one lucky year.
Let's go back to three years ago.
Well, three years ago, if you invested $10,000 in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, you would have $12,700 today.
Not as good as the year previously.
Not even as good as the year previous.
However, if you invested $10,000 in Bitcoin three years ago, you would have $35,900.
That's better.
Which one would you rather have?
$35,900 or $12,700?
I'd rather have the $39,000.
Okay, all right, or $35,000.
$35,000.
Thank you.
Four years ago.
I feel like I'm on the prices right.
If you invested $10,000 in the Dow Jones Industrial Average four years ago, you would have $13,300.
Now, again, it's kind of 33%
over four years.
It's not unbelievable, but it's not a bad return.
It's a solid return.
If you invested that in Bitcoin, you would have $34,600.
Again, almost three times as much money.
Let's go back five years ago.
If you invested in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, $10,000, you would have $15,800.
Hey, that's 58%, right?
That's pretty good return on the Dow over five years.
Nothing wrong with that.
It's a solid investment.
That's a great investment.
If you invested $10,000 in Bitcoin five years ago, you would have $144,200,
which is bigger.
Bigger.
Bigger than the $15,000.
It's almost 10 times
what you would have.
So you can have
the risk is you could have slightly less than the Dow in the last year, or you could have three times as much in every year in between.
And in the fifth year, you'd have 10 times as much.
Which one is dead?
Because the Dow Jones Industrial Average looks like a solid investment and certainly less risky than random cryptocurrency projects.
The Dow has something going for it.
It's a rigged game.
You know, you've got the Fed pouring in the money and the government supporting all of that to make sure it
never fails.
So, and Bitcoin doesn't have no
Bitcoin has the opposite of that.
No protection.
And yet it seems to be outperforming.
Yeah, I'm going to go with this stocks.
I'm going to go with the stocks.
Really?
Yep.
Wow.
That's my, that's it.
I mean, I know this is a showdown, the showcase showdown here, but I'm going to say,
Bob,
maybe, I don't know.
Some of each is a rational approach.
Shut up.
Recognizing that maybe you might lose in the short term with Bitcoin.
Like, man, 9,000 in stocks and 1,000 in Bitcoin.
That might work very, very good.
That would be crazy.

all right
so it's uh show and tell today now i want to i want to start with a uh a little story that I was looking up the opium wars
yesterday.
And I know everybody.
Obviously.
Yeah.
I mean, everybody probably was.
It was Thursday.
Yeah.
So, of course, you were.
Okay.
So, what do you know about the opium wars?
Do you even know who was involved really in the opium wars?
I remember it was two sides, and there was a war about opium, if I remember correctly.
It's been a while.
All right.
We're right on.
You're spot on.
Okay.
Mid-1700s,
British Empire and China.
And the British have found Chinese tea.
And they're like, this is fantastic tea.
I don't know what it is with the tea thing and the English, but it is their catnip.
You take it away from them and they're like, I don't know what to do.
Okay.
I mean, they started an entire war of us throwing some of it in the tea.
Yeah, exactly right.
And they were like, this is dreadful.
How could they they waste all that tea?
I would go into the into the harbors and just slowly slop up all of that lovely tea with a biscuit.
It's a cookie, dude.
It's a cookie, not a biscuit.
Anyway, British Empire
has a trade imbalance because they like tea.
China makes a lot of tea.
And the British love the Chinese tea, but they also have something else.
These amazing worms that make silk and they're like this is great tea and silk I gotta have me some that is a quote from King something or other the seventh and he's like get me some of this and so they sent the ships over to China but when the ships came full with Chinese stuff usually and see if this sounds familiar
Countries don't like it when those ships go back empty
because
that implied a trade balance.
And then it costs more to get the ship to come and deliver your worm thread and your drinking slop.
And
because the ship has to be paid to go back empty.
So the English were like, look, you need to buy some of our crap.
And the Chinese were like, nah.
We don't need any of that stuff.
And they're like, no, you need to buy some of our crap.
And they're again, no, I don't think so.
So,
Britain came up with a new idea because they had conquered India.
You know, I'm sorry, they had just
gone over to visit India, and everybody was like, Please, you guys speak with an English accent, and that always makes you smarter than everyone else.
And so, I mean, what are you going to do?
The English come to your shore, and you're like, You got it, here's the key to our city, take it, please.
That's the way it works.
You're smarter.
Historically, that's the way it happens.
Historically, that's the way it happens.
So,
they had
India.
And India can grow poppies.
Now, this is before the Wizard of Oz, where you realize that poppies make you sleep if you lay down in a forest of them.
So what they did instead was they used it to make opium.
And the idea was,
You got a trade balance.
We'll show you the trade balance.
We're going to send your people
opium.
We're going to sell it to them.
And so they started putting opium over the border.
Well, the Chinese started to get hooked on it.
So the Chinese banned opium.
They're like, we're strong on our border and nobody's going to come across our border, drug smuggling.
Well,
as you probably know, that's pretty hard to do.
you know, and very expensive.
And it didn't stop the flow of illegal opium across the border into China.
And guess who won?
China continued their crackdown.
They arrested British opium smugglers.
They destroyed the opium.
That kicked off the opium wars.
And I just, I, you know, I was thinking about this because now fentanyl is coming to the Mexican ports in Chinese ships
and they're smuggling it across our border.
Isn't that weird?
Isn't that a coincidence?
I mean, I'm sure the Chinese are not trying to get us all hooked on opium or rot us,
you know, from the inside out like the British tried to do in the 1700s.
Because that would, if that was their plan, that would require that they would look at things
long term.
You know, that would require them to remember things of the past.
And we all know the Chinese are nothing but now, now, now, I've got to have it right now.
Okay.
Next little piece of history, because it's Show and Tel Friday.
I wanted to bring some things in.
That I have, my wife and I have,
we are very, very, very fortunate.
And it is because you listen to this broadcast or you listen to a podcast or whatever.
This is you.
And everything that I am collecting,
let me just say this.
In 2008, I had a prompting in my prayers and all I heard was clay pots, clay pots.
And I'm like, I don't know what clay pots mean.
Could you be a little more clear with me?
I'm maybe not as smart as everybody else you're talking to at night, but clay pots.
I don't know what that means.
Took me a few months to figure out, and I figured it out because I was talking about our Constitution and our founding documents as sacred scripture.
And I don't remember when it was, but I was like, wait a minute, I just said sacred scripture.
That's like clay pots.
That's the Dead Sea Scrolls.
They were kept when people came after them.
They were kept in clay pots in the back of some cave, and they weren't found for a thousand plus years.
But that's why we know extra books of the Bible because of those clay pots.
We know a fuller and have a fuller understanding of the time period.
So I thought, I got to find me a cave and get me some of those Chinese clay pots.
And that's why I started the vault at Mercury One.
David Barton and I have been collecting.
He's been collecting a lot longer than I have.
But together and with the Library of Mercury One,
we have more documents on American history than anyone except for the Library of Congress and the National Archives.
It's remarkable.
And
I have felt an increased pressure personally because I think we are dealing with people that will
truly destroy it.
If they have power or they have the means, they will not just bury it in a basement.
they will destroy it.
They do not want the truth, and I say this with pretty good authority.
We are currently in negotiations for a piece of history that is
one
of one,
and it is the only remaining piece of physical history that this event even happened.
And it's a global
event.
You know what I'm talking about, Stu?
I do not think, I know.
But this piece of history proves it happened.
All right.
And it has gone up for auction.
And it was way out of our price range, way out of our price range.
And some people were bidding on it.
And the guy pulled it from auction.
And he pulled it from auction because he found out that two of the bidders
were only buying it to destroy it.
Now, that sounds bat crap crazy,
but I 100%
believe it.
We have to protect these things, and that is my mission in life.
It may be the reason, I don't know.
I mean, I'm trying everything, and I'm going to get up to the other side, and I'm going to go, okay, so
I nailed it, right?
Purpose of my life.
And he's like, no, you were supposed to buy that guy a soda back in 1979 because you had money in your pocket.
It was going to change the world.
He was going to go, oh my gosh, the kindness.
You blew it, dude.
Anyway,
it is my goal to preserve these things.
And
clay pots.
Let's just leave it there.
So I want to show you some things that we have rescued.
And should we start with this one?
Sure.
Okay.
This
is
an amazing piece that is everybody who has walked into the studio has gone, oh my gosh,
that's the real one?
Uh-huh.
This is Rembrandt Peale.
This is a
a painting, probably
one or two of the most famous paintings of George Washington.
Many of us grew up having this in our history books.
And
it was up at the Portland Museum.
Portland.
Portland, the place that is always lighting its buildings on fire.
Yeah, and tearing down statues of George Washington.
Remember, we said they're eventually just going to tear down statues of George Washington and they're going to destroy George Washington and blah, blah, blah.
And, well, the Portland Museum, I guess,
didn't have this on display anymore.
Oh, and it was part of a foundation.
And so
I rescued it.
And it will be preserved.
And
hopefully we will find a very appropriate place, if not the museum,
for the rest of our lives.
And children's lives.
It's like a painting I feel like I've just seen a thousand times.
It is.
It's like
the classic George Williams.
Yeah, it would be one that could sit in a room by itself in an art museum and you'd go, wow.
And you could just sit there and look at it.
You've seen it a million times, but probably don't know where.
Now,
let me give you something else.
Two letters that
we just got.
Let me take a quick break and I want to tell you an amazing letter that we just preserved
from John Adams.
It is
so
today
that I, I mean, it's crazy how it reflects today.
I'll share that here in about 60 seconds.

So
I just got this yesterday.
It was delivered to me.
So we have not done all of the research on all of it.
So I'm sketchy on some of the details on exactly what he's talking about.
But this is a letter from John Adams written in his own hand.
Have you ever seen a John Adams letter?
Look at his handwriting.
His great handwriting.
That is.
I mean, they all had unbelievable handwriting.
They really took their time with it.
Yeah.
And it's small.
It's very small.
Okay, so this is John Adams, and he is writing to the then vice president,
Elbridge Gehry, who is also a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
And there was some problem going on, and I'm not sure I know all of it.
I know some of it, but there was some problem going on with the politicians being a little crooked, a little crooked.
And he starts talking about,
you know, how these politicians work.
And it'll be found at some time or another, selfishness has disappointed the hopes of patriotism and philanthropy in all ages, not only in England in the period of her Commonwealth, but here as well.
The few, if they are not more selfish than the many, are more cunning, and all in all of the ages of the world have not produced such glaring proofs of it as the history of this country for the last thirty years.
I look back at the astonishment, with astonishment, at the height, and the depth and the length and the breadth of this fabric of artifice.
I had suspicions of the depravity of our politicians, but I had no idea of the genius.
Wow.
Don't you feel that way?
I mean,
we know.
We suspect our politicians, and this is an important word, are depraved, okay?
They're not just corrupt, but some of them are depraved.
We have suspicions of that.
But how many of us talk about the genius of those?
It is why I have said for a long time, in 100 years, the truth will be known, but historians will look at what's being done right now and how this all came about and look at each other and go, it was genius.
I mean, it was really true.
It was evil, but it was truly genius on what they did.
He's talking about it in 1813.
Okay.
He said, now listen to this, because I want you to hear this
and know that this is our our lives.
This is our turn to experience this.
You, my friend, have been hurt.
You've been hurt by your country.
So have I.
We have all sacrificed our lives.
We've sacrificed our families, our popularity.
Our reputation has been sacrificed.
The pleasures, our comforts, while the politicians have accumulated fortunes, palaces in the city, and become pillars in the country.
Isn't that how you feel sometimes?
Don't you feel like I have to sacrifice my reputation if I'm going to stand up?
You know, just the pleasures and comforts.
I just leave me alone.
Meanwhile, all the people in Washington are getting rich.
He was then in the letter from
Elbridge.
He says, you need to write a history book.
And he says, you talk to me at 77 years of age of writing history.
If I was only 30, I would not undertake a history of the revolution in less than 20 years.
There are a few facts that I wish to put on paper, and it's an awful warning to do so that has just been given to me by the sudden death of our friend Benjamin Rush, another signer of the Declaration, and Clymer, another signer, preceded him in the same year, the same spring.
How few of us remain?
I believe the majority of surviving we are are the majority of surviving signers of a declaration which has
been given so much credit in the world at the expense of most of its signers.
He talks about how the British said, yeah, the Tea Party, when they actually start fighting, they're going to be so meek.
They're not going to put up a fight at all.
And to that,
Adams says that the birth of America's independence started with the seeds of the revolt.
And then he starts talking about what he calls in the letter an XYZ affair.
This is an affair that
Elbridge Gehry went over to France to be an ambassador.
And the ambassador said, yeah, I'll help you guys, but you're going to have to pay.
bribes.
And Adams, when he was president, he said, no, we're not.
And he exposed all of it.
And it was a big scandal.
And the American people were disgusted that anyone in government would offer or ask for a bribe
for any kind of help.
The Glenn Back Program.
I mean, that hits almost everything today, doesn't it?
Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
What are you doing to help others out who need it?
Do you give to certain charities, ones that you trust?
One you should seriously consider is Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
Since 9-11, they have been, they're neck deep in it, and they are a four-plus charity.
I mean, they get the highest, highest rating.
Catastrophically injured veterans, first responders, Tunnel to Towers builds mortgage-free smart homes.
When somebody dies in the line of service, they take care of the mortgage so the kids don't have to worry about that.
The pressure is off the surviving members of the family, and now they're gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans with Operation Home Base.
But they need your help.
Please donate $11 a month to T the number 2T.org.
It's Tunnel to Towers.

What's inside actually changed the world?
We'll tell you what it is.
Next.
This is the Glenbeck program.
We are so glad that you have joined us today.
Thank you for listening.
It's Show and Tell Day.
As I told you a few minutes ago, I am doing everything I can to preserve and protect our history.
And if that means just burying it somewhere in the center of the country where it's lost, you know, for a thousand years, but will be found again, that's fine.
I think we are dealing with people now that are very dangerous and would
love to destroy American history and prove we did anything.
By the way, if anybody knows how to get a space suit, an American space suit, I am in the market for a space suit.
I think we're...
You kind of have a weird life, man.
I do.
We have the original blueprints of the Mercury module
and a lot of stuff from Apollo 11.
And I just think there's coming a time where people will say America never went to the moon.
That didn't happen.
And I would like the evidence of it.
I don't even know if they sell them.
I mean, can you even buy a spacesuit from like auction?
I mean, I know you can't go to the spacesuit.
I don't know.
This is a question I would ask you.
Okay,
if anybody knows, please, I'm looking for that.
Also, you can help.
We are looking for things that are happening today.
Your school book has CRT stuff.
We are now collecting, and I'm not asking for this because the last, please don't.
We are collecting now all of the encyclopedias as they are updated.
So we're starting with the first set of encyclopedias and we're documenting what's in there and then the next set we're seeing how it has changed.
And so we're documenting all of the changes in
history.
We're about to
start looking for 300 writers.
Mercury One will be hiring
hopefully in the next year or so.
We need 300 writers, but I don't even know.
We're still trying to decide how are we going to pick the writers because we have to know that they
understand American history, know what they're looking at.
And I don't want to give you any more than that.
But if you are a great writer, stand by because we will,
we are looking for help.
Okay, I got a couple of other things here.
Now, I want you to know
that your money is not going to the, I mean, your money by listening to this show, thank you.
Because you listen, ratings go up, commercials, you know, are charged for more, and then
it gives me the ability, much to my wife's chagrin,
to preserve all of these things.
This just, I just got from Harry Truman.
It's from the White House.
No, sorry, it's from Independence, Missouri, November 21st, 1961.
Now,
this, I was hoping people didn't realize how important this letter was, but uh-uh, I was wrong.
It was to a guy that wrote to him about Pearl Harbor and the atomic bomb.
So he writes, Dear Dave, I appreciated very much yours of the 17th.
I wish I could write to tell you about the 20th anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
I have very little to say about that, except that the tears that have been shed on the account of the atomic bomb should have been shed on Pearl Harbor's attack.
All you have to do is go to Pearl Harbor and stand on the upside-down battleship with 2,000 youngsters beneath it.
And you can understand why I don't sympathize with the tear shedding of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Because dropping those bombs is what ended the war.
Yours, Harry Truman.
That's another thing that is
important.
This is starting to be completely dismantled, and we are really working hard on trying to get
Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
We have things from the bomb site that I felt a little uncomfortable.
I was like, does anybody have a Geiger counter?
Should we have this here?
But anyway,
you can help.
history books that are being changed.
You see pamphlets that are being handed out.
You get
memos from school boards or anything.
You see anything,
please send it to me.
And I know my staff right now is like, no,
but we have to collect the things.
We are in a time of epic history right now.
Okay, Stu, the box.
The box is here.
The very heavy, very expensive box.
Very heavy.
Yes.
Few of these exist.
This, what's in this box, changed the world.
I don't know if we can put it someplace where you can see it.
Do you want to take it and put it in front of you, maybe?
Because maybe.
The camera can pick it up.
In front of you.
Gosh, this is heavy.
What's in this box literally changed the world.
It is why this is the birth of the computer.
This is the birth of...
Where are you going, man?
You You leaving with the box?
Are you taking?
Wait a minute.
You shouldn't leave.
So this is the birth of the computer.
This gave us the birth of,
gosh,
AI, artificial intelligence, all of it.
You can open the box if the camera can pick up on it.
You open the box, and inside
is the Enigma machine.
I can't, I'm telling you right now, press, people online, everything, Glenn Beck just bought an Enigma machine.
I told you he was a Nazi.
No, I just wanted to, I just, I'm going to be real frank with you.
Now I can translate all of those secret dog whistles from the RNC.
This machine, you have a seat, Stu.
This machine is what the Nazis used, the code that that we could not break, the imitation game with Benedict Cumberbunn is the story of the guy who broke the code.
However,
that is an impressive story because he builds a computer.
And that is truly an impressive story.
But people don't know the story of America breaking the code of the Enigma machine.
So England got their hands on one of these.
This is a pre-1941.
After 1941, they added a fourth wheel.
It is so cool the way you
they give you the code and they have three wheels in there and you turn one to like number 22, one to number three
and one to number 38.
Okay.
And that changes the alphabet and it's it processes the whole thing.
And then when it's plugged in the keyboard up above changes okay so you can see how one letter is now the other letter okay and then you just type on it and we could not break it because they would change it every single day they would change all three um wheels in 1941 they suspected we were on to them and so they added a fourth wheel we broke that as well england got one and they were like, oh my gosh, now,
how do we decode it?
We have the rings, but we don't know.
You have to have all of them, and you have to know which setting it is every day.
And
there's too many combinations.
So even having the machine, they couldn't figure out the code.
And that's in the imitation game, that gigantic machine that they built, a computer, the first one to be able to break this code.
Americans,
there were two Americans that were in the Pacific
and knew about the machine, had never seen one, didn't have one.
They were at sea in the Pacific, two guys sat down and they broke the
Enigma code before the British did.
And we never told them that we had broken the code.
I think that's kind of a cool story, although it probably won't be as dramatic as the imitation game because
there were just two guys on a ship that were like, what do you think?
I mean,
we got a few days on the ship.
You want to try to break the Enigma code?
Okay.
And they did.
End of movie.
It's not as good a movie.
Yeah.
I mean, you could end it with a Star Spangled Banner, but then Disney wouldn't sell it to China.
And that makes it sound
easy or less impressive than it really was.
No, it's
really impressive.
To break this, it changed everything.
Everything.
It's wild to have it sitting here, isn't it?
Yeah.
I was thinking about it last night.
I thought,
I wonder where this one was.
I wonder who had it.
You know, some were on submarines.
Some were in Germany.
I wonder who had this one.
There's got to be a way.
We'll research it.
There's got to be a way.
I'm sure there's a number on it.
And we'll try to find out what messages did this thing send
a little terrifying it really is a little terrifying it's amazing that we were able to actually break that
you think of just just you know the I mean modern encryption is one thing but like to do all this without computers I know to come up with this machine yeah somebody coming up and going I got it we'll make a typewriter that will have you know 5,000 different combinations of keys and nobody will ever break it they thought it was unbreakable absolutely unbreakable.
And we did for a while, too, right?
Initially, that was our oh, yeah.
We couldn't, we could not decipher anything, anything.
When we landed on the beaches of Sicily,
we had just started to
have the information for the Enigma machine, and they suspected they didn't know, so they were really dicey, and they didn't really,
they weren't sending really critical things.
When we landed in Sicily with the Great Deception, which by the way is Operation Mincemeat, there is a new movie.
It's either Amazon or Netflix.
It's really good.
It's the story of World War II and Ian Fleming plays a
kind of critical role.
He is the guy for Operation Mincemeat, where we
fooled the Germans with an old trick.
We fooled the Germans, and everyone said, This won't work.
This is the oldest trick in the book.
You're going to have somebody wash up on shore with secret plans of an invasion.
And he's like, Yes.
And because we're going to do much more than that, they'll never believe that
we would try it because it would be so stupid for us to try it.
So Ian Fleming was like, let's go the extra mile and be so audacious that the average person would go, that this is ridiculous
like we're going to believe that.
His thinking was some German would go, yes, but they are not that much of an idiot.
Yeah?
Some looking up online some of these machines
and the cost of these machines.
And
your wife must hate you.
She must despise you at this point.
This was not necessarily a banner week of our relationship.
Because I see this incredible painting, the multiple letters that you've
protected, and then this Enigma machine, which does not seem to be a lot of these available
world, try being married to me with this as my mission, and I'm coming home every day going,
yeah,
real trouble on the horizon.
And then coming home with a bill like this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I said,
luckily, though, you're just, you're, you're so sexy that she just, she just used to be a little bit more.
She's like, I can't keep my hands off him.
It's worth,
it's worth it just for the hot, hot times.
Yes, everything else is just awful, but she gets to come home and get a piece of that.
So
she's got that going on for her.
What a wonderful life she lives.
She is actually, she's remarkable.
She also really cares about this stuff, too.
I mean, this.
not just you.
Deeply.
She was, you know,
because she said, because, you know, when you go to an auction, you don't know what it's going to cost.
And so I said, it'll probably be around this.
And she was like, oh, my gosh.
Okay.
And I came home and it wasn't like that.
No.
It was much worse than that.
And I told her and she said,
what?
And I told her and
she didn't take it well at first.
And then she came back about an hour later because she had to go for a walk.
And she came back and she was like,
sorry,
I was just a little in shock.
And I said, I know.
And she said,
but this is important.
This is really important.
There's no doubt about that.
I mean, this is stuff that
will be on display at the museum eventually here, right?
I might take some of these things on tour.
I might do something very different.
There's always the risk that, you know, something happens to it and you don't have it anymore.
And that's always sad, too.
I know I'll find it at your house.
If it ever.
Something happened and we had to to throw it away.
No, it's not.
It's at Stu's house.
Let me tell you about gold line, a smart investment strategy.
The dollar is getting weaker.
Invest in whatever it's weaker than.
Commodities.
That can be food.
That can be art.
That can be precious metals.
Really, silver is something you should look at.
gold and silver.
And, you know, we were talking about Bitcoin today.
Not talking about take all your money and put it in gold or silver.
Take 10% of what you have saved and put it into precious metals.
At least consider it, please.
Right now, Goldline is having a, I mean,
just a remarkable
sale going on right now.
They're giving away the silver maple flex bar with every gold legal tender bar pack that you acquire.
Just call them.
They'll explain them.
These are things that I designed years ago with the Canadian Mint and Goldline.
I think they are just the way to own it myself.
But you get
every gold legal tender bar pack you get, you get the silver maple flex bar as well at no cost.
The last time this was presented, they ran out right away.
They are almost out now.

Hey, some really good good news.
NATO has said Finland
can join NATO right away.
They just have to apply, and
that'll, you know, that'll, wow, that'll be great.
Russia, not thinking so.
You know, not an active war,
but
they're going to be looking into what they are going.
There will be a response to that, according to Russia.
Have a great weekend.
Stay safe.
