The radio show starts here in just a couple seconds.

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

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

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

This is the Glenback program.

Let me paint a scenario for you.

Imagine that every state were free to choose whether or not to allow black people and white people to marry.

Some states would permit such marriages, others probably would.

Others probably wouldn't.

The laws would be a mismatch.

The interracial couples would suffer, legally consigned to second-class status depending on where they live.

This can happen here.

This is a serious op-ed from the New York Times.

It is written by a fourth grader.

I'll give you the latest in 60 seconds.

Susan Roglen, my husband, Charlie, the B-Man, are professional commercial beekeepers.

Me and my husband, the bee man, does all the heavy lifting and works 12 hours a day during pollination season while I do all the honey and beeswax extraction.

I ordered Relief Factor because it helps the bee man with his back and hip during all the hard work.

His pain is so much more tolerable now than it was before.

I wonder if it helps, you know, with inflammation from thousands of bee stings.

I'm just, I don't know for sure what his pain is.

Uh, but Relief Factor apparently, according to his wife Susan, has helped a great deal.

Three-week quick start developed just for you, $19.95.

It's a dollar a day like a trial pack.

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

That says a ton.

It's Relief Factor, relief factor.com, or call 1-800, the number 4-relief, 1-800-4 Relief, or relieffactor.com.

Feel the difference.

Imagine that every state were free to choose whether to allow black people and white people to marry.

Some states would permit such marriages.

Others

probably wouldn't.

It seems unthinkable as a scenario in 2022.

That's because in 1967, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that

barring interracial marriage, as 16 states still did, violates the 14th Amendment's guarantee of equal protection.

Under the Constitution, the freedom to marry or not marry, a person or another race resides with the individual and cannot be infringed by the state, said the court.

More than half a century on, this court case is considered one of the court's great rulings, and yet it was not universally admired at the time.

Southern states complied only grudgingly.

Alabama didn't repeal its ban on international marriage or interracial marriage until 20 or the year 2000.

That's the point of having a federal constitution, says the New York Times op-ed.

It is supreme.

The guarantees and rights in that document apply to all Americans equally, whether or not they live in the South or the north no matter where they live the court system and the supreme court in particular exist to protect those rights when state and local authorities refuse to

leaving the matter to individual states and political process means that millions of americans will be denied their fundamental rights in this case the right of a woman to decide what happens inside her own body i mean in unless it's you know a vaccine

the draft opinion relies heavily on the lack of mention of abortion in the Constitution, therefore argues that the document cannot be the basis for the right to terminate a pregnancy.

The Constitution also says nothing about, here comes the fourth grader, the Constitution also says nothing about interracial marriage, but that didn't prevent the judges from finding in the 14th Amendment the guarantee that no couple may be treated differently because of the color of their skin.

That's specifically what the 14th Amendment is talking about.

It's specifically talking about.

You can't take somebody

that lives here in America and treat them differently

because of the color of their skin,

because they are different in some way.

Now, if the left, I suppose, were arguing that men could have abortions as well,

then maybe.

But see,

this is missing the point entirely.

The point is, in the Constitution, it doesn't say you can kill babies that you claim are a lump of cells.

There is nothing, there are no rights, you know how many, do you know how many things the Constitution actually allows the federal government to do?

What are the number number of things that the government is allowed to do, the federal government allowed to do according to the Constitution?

What's that number?

I don't know the number, but there's very few of them.

I mean,

the common defense,

you have the courts, you have the post office.

I mean, you have 17 things in the Constitution.

Only 17.

How many millions are they doing right now?

And to point out, not only is

gay marriage and interracial marriage not there, neither is marriage marriage.

Like the old school, that's not, it's a state issue.

It's not a federal issue.

To this day, it's not a federal issue.

And by the way, marriage marriage wasn't an issue at all.

That was a church and human-to-human thing.

Shouldn't be a government issue at all.

Should be.

That all started because of the progressives.

Interracial marriage banned because of the progressives.

I would say that Planned Planned Parenthood had a lot to do with that.

I want to point that out, Eric.

Yeah, and we should point out that, you know, the guy, the guy, I don't know if this president freed the slaves.

Remember this guy?

He had a big hat.

He was tall.

I don't know, kind of a weird-looking dude.

Got married.

I think it was Shmirnov.

It was

another one of our past presidents.

He got married without a marriage license.

That's weird.

So did George Washington.

So did George Washington.

Because that was not the way they thought about it at all.

In short, constitutional rights are meaningless unless they apply across the entire country.

Let me rephrase that for the New York Times and the fourth grader that wrote this.

In short, constitutional rights are meaningless unless they apply to all people.

All people.

Now, our argument here in the state would be that

that clump of cells doesn't suddenly turn into a tumor.

It always turns into a human being.

You have a right to life.

No one is allowed to take that life

from you unless you've done something and you've been tried in a court of law.

No innocent life is supposed to go away because the government says.

So that's the extremist point of view.

But the Constitution is there

to say these are a few few of the rights that come from God.

So they come from, you don't have, you could say it's a higher power.

You could say it's the stars.

It's stardust, the things that make us, whatever it is,

rights come from them.

You know, the trees, the forests.

I'm speaking right directly to the progressive left.

The forest gives us our rights.

And no one can change them.

And no one can just issue rights.

That's really important because that's what the government wants you to believe, that the government can give you rights.

The Supreme Court is not taking away abortion rights.

The Supreme Court is saying it's up to the people in the state.

The federal government can't do anything about it.

Why?

Because it's not their job.

When it comes to something like this, it has to be decided by the people.

This is the least dictatorial ruling I have seen in I don't know how long.

All right.

So

what's happening?

Well, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, very upset, very, very upset

because the Supreme Court is overturning Roe v.

Wade.

And she said, I am not to have, I am not going to enforce any laws

that say I have to break into a doctor's office and stop abortion.

I just won't do it.

Again, that's not what the Supreme Court said.

It's your state laws.

Well, Michigan has a law in the books from 1931.

by the way

the height of the progressive era you really hung on that h in height for some reason that seemed to

uh it criminalized abortion uh

with she says with

no exceptions

i mean except for the exception uh exception for rape and incest but other than that no exceptions okay well if you don't like it i think the Democrats control Michigan.

I think actually the mob does, but the Democrats control Michigan.

You have a very pro-choice governor.

Change the law.

You can't go off as the attorney general.

I know George Soros is telling you differently, but you can't just say as the chief law enforcement officer in your state,

you can't say, nah, we're not going to pay attention to that law.

What you do is you change your law.

This is not a federal law.

This is in your state.

Ask the voters.

It really,

it really

amazes me how stupid people really are.

She knows better than this.

All these people, New York Times, they know better than that.

That's a fourth, it is honestly a fourth grade opinion.

It really is.

It shows you have no understanding how this system works at all.

But then again,

why should people be smart when they're spoon-fed everything they're supposed to believe and then told you must believe it?

CNN reported on Friday that the leak of the Supreme Court draft opinion,

probably a right-wing political

leak.

And it's going to lead to right-wing political violence.

What?

What are they even talking about?

CNN has learned the U.S.

Capitol Police are bracing for large demonstrations that are being organized by far-right groups to protest abortion rights.

What far-right groups?

What?

I mean, you always say far-right groups, which is wrong.

Far-right groups are Nazis.

Nazis love abortions.

They were killing children in the millions.

What are you talking about?

The Nazis are upset about killing children?

They love it.

The recently installed non-scalable fencing outside the court building was visible.

As CNN reported, several members of law enforcement have expressed concerns that people who are committed to committing act of violent extremism could use Roe versus Wade opinion for a justification of that.

Yeah, where did they say that

it was going to be

the vast right wing?

Where are they saying that?

that?

CNN did say I should caution, there are no specific credible threats.

Oh,

okay.

Okay.

All right.

I get it.

Sure.

Sure.

Now,

a lot of people have been saying these things about

the right

while they put up the fence.

I was shocked, shocked to see the progressive left

calling to burn the Supreme Court and the country down.

I don't know about anybody else.

You know, those

pro-life conservatives were really upset.

Oh, man, they had some heated arguments around the dinner table yesterday.

Yeah, they did.

Meanwhile, the acts of violence or illegal activity

seems to be things like a Catholic church burned in Boulder, Colorado.

It was vandalized.

I shouldn't say burned or broken into or terrorist activity.

This is vandalized.

Vandalist.

Vandals.

Vandals did this.

Now, was the vandalism mostly peaceful?

It was mostly peaceful, but it was mostly also anti-religious and

it was

pro-choice.

But it was

peaceful, sort of fire-starting,

bomb-throwing,

sort of

threatening if abortion isn't safe, neither are you, sort of way.

Right.

And that, you know, that's a, in a peaceful sense.

There was tranquility involved in those words.

Amen.

Amen.

And they also scribbled on the side of another clinic

in Madison, Wisconsin.

It was a pro-life office.

They scribbled, or actually in very nice cursive handwriting, so you know that it was the right.

1312 was also on there, which every conservative who doesn't know what 1312 means, right?

I mean, that's

we start all of our, come on, we start all of our meetings with, hey, hail 1312.

What is 13?

1312?

All cops are the B word.

I'm not sure.

I think I know what B word, but so many words have been banned.

When somebody says the B word.

Well, we wouldn't want to designate the gender of the police officer exactly right that would be either one of those could be either one of those so uh we don't know but 1312 that was the tip off to me that it was definitely definitely right-wing churchgoers

uh welcome to the oh by the way um antifa also um the pro-abort men of Antifa uh were um putting out hits on pregnancy centers in Portland also this weekend.

They bashed windows and put F C P C's, which,

again, come on, we all know what that means.

All right, the Tuttle Twins.

I want to tell you about a little girl named Pippa, Pippa the painter.

Pippa's mom liked her paintings and started sharing them all over social media.

And what do you know?

People started saying, Pippa, you should sell these things.

So Pippa and her mom began looking into it.

Turns out, market for putting paintings on t-shirts, mugs, canvas, frame prints, baby clothes.

Ha.

Pippa, you're a genius.

Should have thought of that one.

Anyway, sure enough, great idea because it started selling like heart hotcakes and Pippa's now a business owner.

This is the kind of inspiring story that your kids can find, what other kids are doing to become business owners, entrepreneurs.

You're finding them now in the Tuttle Times.

It's a magazine dedicated to teaching our kids about entrepreneurship and other freedom-related things.

You can get access to the magazine now at a reduced rate, $49 for the entire year.

You give this to them, it inspires them, gives them examples of what others are doing beside being on TikTok.

It's TuttleTwinsbeck.com, TuttleTwinsbeck.com, just $49 for 12 months.

TuttleTwinsbeck.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Yeah, you know what's really weird is

all of these people pretending to be from the left, but we know they are clearly right-wing nutjobs that were protesting in front of the houses of some of the Supreme Court members.

That was great.

Completely against the law.

I have a right to free speech.

It's a free sidewalk.

Yeah, actually, you don't.

You don't.

It's against the law to protest or try to intimidate at a home

any judge to try to influence their decisions.

It's against the law.

Now, who would have known that?

Now, it's okay to break the law when you're involved in a mostly peaceful protest

when you're on the right side of these issues.

Yeah, and that's the key.

That's the key.

Like when, let's just advance a little while here.

When the left occupies the Supreme Court building, when this occurs,

will it be called an insurrection at that point?

No.

It will not.

No, it will not be a good idea.

It's for the right, you know, it's for the right causes.

Here's MSNBC.

It's cut eight, please.

Amy, you just heard Michelle refer to the anti-abortionists as terrorists, And she has a point because the quote-unquote people who call themselves pro-life, they achieve this through violence.

When you look through the, I remember, I'm old enough to remember that in the 80s, anti-abortion protesters began bombing clinics, threatening doctors.

By 1990, a thousand abortion doctors had quit.

84% counties nationwide had no abortion clinic.

You are an abortion provider.

What does this ruling mean?

mean for you that is the dumbest point of the world so michelle is right and i'm thankful to be here tiffany this morning with both Michelle and Nancy.

There is violence, and it is terrorism, and I think it's very important for us to recognize that it is Christian extremism that is at the root of this shame and the stigma that allows laws like this to pass, that allows justices like this to be confirmed.

And this does not represent the majority of feelings and beliefs of people in this country.

I'm telling you, this is connecting with a lot of people.

It probably is.

No, you have MSNBC.

There were six panelists there, I think, which is is six times the normal viewership of MSNBC.

That's true.

They were all watching.

They were all watching.

So ratings were up.

Yeah.

Well, I should say maybe five.

So the theory here is that 12 murders, which they claim, I haven't found it.

From 1973 to today is what brought us to this 98-page legal ruling by the Supreme Court.

Yeah.

That's the case.

It's terrorism.

Wow.

I mean, you want to talk about brilliance.

How do you, honestly, how do you bridge the gap?

How do you bridge the gap?

The gap is just getting so far apart.

It's impossible to bridge the gap with someone that dumb.

It's impossible.

The Glenn Back program.

I'm going to try.

I'm going to try.

There's a gap.

There was a gap.

I'm sick of trying.

I'm sick of tribe.

Do everyone knows all about life lately?

Yeah, I'm sick of trying.

Okay.

It's so enough.

You had a good weekend, didn't you?

Oh, yeah, it was great.

Anyway, scrolling through social media can be fun, but it can also expose you to con artists.

Always be on the lookout for identity thieves that want your personal information, financial information, so they can open accounts in your name, common sense measures, things like not telling everyone on social media if you're going to be away from your house for a few days.

It's Life Lock.

Life Lock can help you do all of these things and stop the bad guys.

Now, they can't stop everybody.

Nobody can stop all crime on anything, but they're the best in the business.

And if something does happen, they have restoration specialists that will work with you to help fix the problem quickly.

Nobody can prevent all identity theft, monitor, all transactions, but they're the best.

oh boy emily libert

she is um she's talking um writing about jewish leaders banning abortion is absolutely a violation of religious freedom she says she has talked to many, a coalition of rabbis

who are defending Jewish pregnant people's right to abortion access.

In fact, Rabbi Rutenberg, scholar in residence at the National Council of Jewish Women, who, oh, it's a Jewish rabbi, focuses on religious texts and she focuses on religious texts around sexuality and bodily autonomy.

She says Judaism Judaism is a patriarchal religion and that there are plenty of places in the Torah that don't get it right.

As if you view it through a

reproductive justice lens, she says much of the Jewish religion can be

interpreted as support for the right to choose, which I think, you know, I like my rabbi, my priest, anybody who can read through a reproductive justice lens.

Oh, absolutely.

That's the only kind of lens I look through.

Right, exactly right.

I got mine at Lenscrafters.

Where'd you go?

Oh, you did?

Yeah.

Better contacts and eyeglasses is where I got mine.

Really?

Wow.

Anyway.

I don't have a third lens crafter joke teed up here at the end of the day.

Walmart.

Okay, Walmart.

You get it at Walmart here.

I don't know.

So Exodus.

The rabbis use Exodus 20, 22.

The article says, the verse says, when men fight and one of them pushes a pregnant woman and a miscarriage results, but no other harm ensues.

The one responsible shall be fined with the woman's husband's demands a compensation.

The payment will be determined by judges.

But if other harm ensues, the penalty shall be life for life.

The problem is,

maybe these rabbis can't read Hebrew or know somebody because I don't read Hebrew, but I know people that read Hebrew.

And the Hebrew phrase that they are translating as miscarriage actually translates to her

children come out.

Now,

nowhere is in the Bible

is that word translated as miscarriage, because there's another word for miscarriage in Exodus,

none shall miscarry.

And that's a completely different word.

So the verse actually says, if men fight and hurt a pregnant woman so that she prematurely gives birth and yet no harm follows, he's supposed to go to court and be punished accordingly.

But if harm follows, then you shall give life for life.

So in other words, if the baby comes out and there's something wrong with the baby because of this,

you can kill him.

I just wanted to just...

Sounds really pretty.

So it's not, yeah, it's not exactly.

However, Genesis also talks about Jacob and Esau wrestling in their mother's belly.

And they don't say that the scriptures say the sons, her sons were wrestling in her bed.

Doesn't say clump of cells.

The clump of cells was, you know what I mean?

And Isaiah, Adonai called me from the womb before I was born.

He spoke my name.

He clearly said clump of cells,

which was really,

which is really weird.

And then Jeremiah 1.15, before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.

You were a Buick.

Then I changed my mind and I thought,

I'll let you be a kid.

All right, so you're a kid.

So they could have aborted when the child was abused.

You're still in Bible country.

That would have been a lot of people.

You're still in Bible country.

Yes, absolutely.

And that would have been way ahead of time for a Buick.

Yeah, too.

So that would have been really cool.

Well, God knows all.

There's no time in God's world.

So the Bible is a book of patterns that maybe we should, you know, look at those patterns.

And I, this is me, and I'm not a rabbi, but I am a doctor.

It is useful

sometimes not to pull a single verse out and have that support your entire philosophy.

It would be like if I was a doctor of Shakespeare, you know,

I just don't think I would pull one line to be or not to be, and then I could explain all of Shakespeare.

You know what I mean?

That's just a safety tip.

Safety tip.

Safety tip to those clumps of cells.

I keep hearing this argument.

I'm curious as to if you guys feel the same way on this.

They keep saying, like, we don't need your religion in our laws.

Like, I don't care if you have a religious viewpoint on abortion.

It doesn't matter.

It has nothing to do with a woman's right and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

You would have that personal view, but it doesn't matter.

And I started thinking about that a little bit because they say this often, as if the only way you could come to the conclusion of keeping babies alive is through your religion.

Right.

And I was kind of examining my own thought process on this.

And this may be to my own shame.

Okay.

All right.

But I don't think I've come to that conclusion at all based on my faith.

Like, I don't, I'm really happy my faith agrees with the conclusion I've come to logically about abortion.

Yeah.

Because if it didn't, I would have a real problem.

I don't think I would be able to square those two.

It would be really difficult for me to understand.

But like, that is honestly more of a coincidence than anything else.

I can do it to a complete science.

Completely science.

Life is important.

It's not just a more, that is a moral stance, but it is not just a moral stance.

It is, it is a legal stance.

It is a logical stance that every child should have a chance at life.

By the way, all morals don't have to come be based in the Bible.

I mean, you know, hey, let's not kill children.

I think that's a pretty good safety tip.

I don't need God to tell me that.

There's a lot of moral atheists.

Yeah.

People who live good lives even though they don't believe in God.

Exactly right.

And like the moral basis of a lot of our laws comes from that Judeo-Christian tradition, right?

Right.

But that does not mean that this is the reason why people want there to be no children being aborted.

These are totally, like, they work together, which is what's great about faith many times.

Logic and faith tend to line up a lot, which is sometimes they don't.

But sometimes it's hard.

Sometimes it's hard.

Yeah.

But in this particular case, like, it just doesn't,

murder's another one, right?

Like, thou shalt not murder is in the Bible quite clearly, but that's not necessarily why I think there should be a policy against murder.

Right.

Right?

Like, it's in the Bible.

Okay,

okay, Pope Stew.

Quiet down about murdering people.

I love how they're trying to make this out,

all the protests that are starting to occur and some of the violence that is beginning to happen.

And they're trying to blame it on the right.

Clearly.

You see the report from CNN that warning of the far-right violence because of this decision?

What far-right violence has there been?

We were just talking about it.

I think the Nazis were pretty cool with killing babies.

Yeah, they seem to be.

I mean, and they always say that's far-right.

Plus, the far-right, as you've pointed out a million times, Nazis are not on the right.

They're socialists.

Nazis are national socialists, and they belong on the left, unless you live in Europe.

Yes.

Then they're a right organization.

And why is that, Pat?

Because they don't have something called the Constitution.

Right.

Exactly.

So,

I mean,

the media, and especially CNN, is always trying to blame violence on the right.

And we never accommodate them except,

and it's one of the things that makes it so bad, January 6th.

I mean, January 6th was probably

the one thing that they can point to and say,

yeah, and we've said that for 15 years.

Don't ever exist.

Never do anything like that.

And now they've done it.

And they've got an excuse now to point to them and say, look, see, we told you they were right.

I just don't think people are going to buy it.

I really just

don't think.

I mean, it's so clear what's going on.

I mean, to go just off the point we played a clip earlier, Glenn, like when they're trying to point to right-wing violence, they literally go back to abortion clinic bombings from the 1980s.

1996.

Right?

Like,

this is what's happened.

I mean, you know, what was the guy, Eric Rudolph, was it?

Yeah.

I'm trying to remember his name.

And that was what?

96 when we heard about him.

Yeah, that's it.

The Olympics.

Yeah, right, that's right.

But it had been before that when he supposedly bombed abortion clinics.

So 90s, you've got some, you know, 20 years ago.

I know we had the one.

30 years ago.

80s were 40 years ago.

40 years ago.

You had one murder I remember in, I think it was Kansas of an abortion clinic and a doctor.

And I remember thinking, I've never heard, never heard a conservative be

justify that in any way.

Say, hey, look, we think that's bad, but it's not.

It's just straight out wrong.

Wow.

Wow.

Okay, apparently you guys don't know what's really going on.

Oh, really?

Oh, wow.

Yeah, Rosanna Arquette, you know, the actor.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

She's not a good one.

She has spilled the beans.

She has spilled the beans.

Yes.

She's right through us.

Yeah.

She knows what's happening with the Republicans.

She says the Republicans have financial gain in this Supreme Court ruling.

Okay.

Really?

Oh, big time.

Yeah.

Big time.

Think about it.

Where's all that money coming from?

The money is coming from the Republican party's trafficking babies oh wow the republican party is yeah oh sure she's yeah they're not competent enough to do anything of the sort uh no she said no this is a satanic force oh that's in the supreme court and she said it's not hysterical or alarmist uh they are going to traffic in babies oh wow that women just can't afford to keep and she's on to us she's on to us yeah

we were hoping nobody would notice i know well we were well until we had to advertise.

Yeah.

She said there's huge money in

making a worldwide market for babies.

And it's all behind organ trafficking.

So she says the Supreme Court is officially the satanic force.

So, wait, what are we doing?

We're growing babies to grow organs.

Oh my gosh.

Yeah.

So this is.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Your answer to that was yeah.

Yeah, this is, of course, please.

Of course.

When you call the Supreme court stop pretending stu we've been caught we've been caught

when you call the supreme court you say i'd like a copy of that case please and then they say uh okay

uh anything else and you'd say yes i'd like it with pepperoni and pineapple

then they go down into the basement there's someone else you want a hawaiian baby doesn't it isn't that what that means yeah yeah yeah well half hawaiian uh half italian

along with a court case.

But see, it's

so it's you order it like

that.

There are tunnels under the Supreme Court when they're trafficking babies.

This sounds familiar.

It does sound familiar.

I don't know.

Do they play ping pong at the Supreme Court, too?

No,

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

So I'm sure all the people that echo this Rosanna Arquette theory are going to be banned from social media like they were for Pizzagate.

That's all.

You know they will be.

Yeah.

You know they will.

You bet.

But

she's on to us.

She is on top of us.

So, shoot,

we could have all been so rich.

If it wasn't for those crazy kids in that van.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Stupid dog.

This dumb brother, Scrappy.

That name is Scrappy.

Isn't it honestly like

their writing Scooby-Doo episodes?

It really does.

All right.

The Fed is behind the curve when it comes to fighting inflation.

In fact, it's a little ridiculous how far behind they are.

Their lack of movement is costing all of us dearly, and it's going to make credit card debt much more expensive.

If you thought 19% was high, wait until you see what is coming.

It's going to be harder and harder for you to get credit, and harder and harder for you to afford

any monthly payment that will actually bring that

balance down every month, but you can do something about it.

You can call American Financing.

They work for you, not the banks.

So when you call them and say, look, I have this money that is on my credit cards and I'm paying already.

The average is about 19%.

It's going to shoot through the roof.

Can I get a consolidation loan that will get me into the fours or 5% so I can pay this off and get out of this?

The answer might be yes.

Have them look at your your financial state and see if they can save you hundreds, if not $1,000 a month or more.

It's American Financing, 800-906-2440.

The Glenback Program.

We're going to have to

talk later, Stu, unless we have time now.

How much time do we have here, Sarah?

Three minutes, okay.

I purchased some things, Tanya and I purchased some things for our, for the museum here for the American Journey Experience, this weekend.

And

David and I, who we watch all the auctions, we have never seen.

David Barton?

David Barton.

We have never seen auctions like in the last four or five weeks.

The prices of things are astronomical.

Astronomical.

So

this isn't a reflection of inflation.

No, this is a reflection of something else.

And I think it's because rich people.

are starting to take their money.

The last six weeks,

maybe eight weeks, the auction prices are just going through the roof.

And they've been gently climbing, but they're just starting to spiral out of control.

And I think that's because rich people are taking their money out of stocks and bonds and also US dollars and buying treasures.

They're buying artwork and

different things.

There was

one of the only two copies,

paper copies of the Declaration of Independence that was made, I can't remember, 18 something or other.

And it's kind of sketchy.

We don't even know how they were made, etc., etc.

We are going on, yeah, we think it's this.

That went for

it was either almost five or almost $600,000.

It was estimated to go between $20,000 and $40,000.

It is some

people with money, and I always say this because my grandfather always taught me

the people in the Depression who survived the depression were the people who had money going into it, had stable jobs going into it.

And he always said,

if we would have known what the rich people knew,

then we probably would have done better for ourselves.

And I'm telling you right now, rich people, I think, are getting and putting their money into

anything, really, that is long-lasting an asset that will appreciate in value because dollars and stocks are going down.

Yeah, the time period of a couple months is about what we've seen with the weakening of all these markets, too.

So it kind of lines up.

Yeah.

All right, back in a minute.

We've got a great hour with a former Soviet spy.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Thank you so much.

We're just talking about that amazing Kentucky Derby.

We'll talk about it a little bit later.

My understanding is the horse ate rough greens.

Really?

Yeah, that's how it happened.

And they put the bull, it said, after the race, and he was just running for the bowl.

Yeah, that's the rumor.

I haven't confirmed that.

Wow.

Wow.

Well, don't look into it too deeply.

No, I would never.

When it agrees with something that I like, I would never look into it more deeply.

So, rough greens, when you're feeding your dog kibble food, it's dead food, been sterilized, has to be sterilized, so it can sit on a store shelf.

I'm not kidding, for two or two and a half years.

That's the rule.

So it doesn't contain anything that your dog really needs to live his best life.

That's where Rough Greens comes in.

Not a dog food, it's a supplement that you put on the food, and it is filled with vitamins and minerals, and probiotics, and antioxidants, the things your dog, in fact, you need to live healthier.

Most of the time, dogs absolutely love it.

It's like dog crack, but they want to make sure that your dog loves rough greens as much as our dogs do.

All you pay for for the first bag is shipping at roughgreens, r-u-f-f-greens.com slash back.

Roughgreens.com/slash back, or call 833-Glenn33.

That's 833-G-L-E-N-N-33.

Roughgreens.com slash back.

Do it now.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if the corners of night

stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day of time to

to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenbach program.

Wow, remember all the big missile parades?

If you were my age, you saw from the Soviet Union growing up?

Well, Victory Day was commemorated yesterday with a big military parade, and Putin gave a speech about

Ukraine.

Didn't declare war, but also didn't declare victory.

What are we headed for?

I thought I would ask a friend of the program, Jack Barski.

He's a former Soviet spy.

He is the author of Deep Undercover.

He's also the guy that the Americans used as a consultant.

on that to get the story right.

He also has a podcast documentary called The Agent.

If anybody knows how to read the tea leaves, Jack may be one of the few.

We talked to him in 60 seconds.

Mary wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor.

She says, Dear Relief Factor, I'm so happy.

I've been on the product for five days now, and I can't believe the difference it's already made in my life.

Before I started taking it, I could hardly get up the stairs.

Now I can go up and down without any pain whatsoever, and it is amazing.

I want to order the 90 pack.

I never want to run out of this wonderful, wonderful stuff.

Thank you, Relief Factor.

Relief Factor is not a drug.

It was developed by doctors and has four key ingredients that work with your body to fight inflammation, which causes most of our pain.

The three-week quick start developed for you is $19.95, and it's a trial pack.

Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered it and tried it, and about 70% of them go on to do exactly what Mary just did.

It's relieffactor.com or call 800-4 Relief, 1-800-FOR

the number for Relief, or ReliefFactor.com.

Feel the difference.

This is from the audio podcast, The Agent.

The year was 1988, and Jack Barski had been in the United States for over 10 years.

Like anyone living in the hustle and bustle of New York City, the site of the skyline, peppered with so many tall buildings, never got old.

He had made this city a home, a home he knew better than most native New Yorkers, having explored nearly every street by foot or by bicycle.

He loved his job as a software developer at MetLife.

He adored his coworkers, and he finally felt like he was fitting in.

He was meant to be here.

He lived in a modest apartment with his wife and young daughter, and they considered looking for a bigger place now that there were three in the family.

Even though his days were long and his commute to and from Manhattan made it even longer, he rushed back home every night to see his little princess one last time before she went to bed.

Jack Barski was living the American dream.

But this dream was about to take a sudden and unexpected turn.

Town has taken refuge there.

The news watch never stops.

It's 42 degrees in clear in New York, going down to 29 degrees in Midtown.

43, an hour WINS shot.

I would probably wake up typically about

7,

have a bowl of cereal

and get on my way.

I lived in Queens.

I had about a 12-minute walk to the subway.

This was in December.

It was still dark at that time.

I'm not a morning person, so I'm just like walking, sort of in a daze.

I

went along a path that I had communicated to the center.

They needed to know this because there was a spot on that path where they were able to put signals.

So every morning when I get to a supporting post for the elevated A-train, I would just take a look and nothing ever was there.

But on this cold December morning, Jack noticed something different as he approached the subway station.

This is really odd.

I get a little closer and there was this red dot, the fist-sized red dot.

That screamed at me.

What it was saying is danger.

Get out of here.

Immediately.

Don't go back home.

Don't go to work.

Retrieve your reserve documents.

I had a set of Canadian documents that I had hidden in a park someplace.

And make a beeline to the Canadian border where eventually you get further instructions and that's how we get you out of here.

That's all I knew.

Danger, do this.

This was part of the plan.

Jack had received a signal.

A code read.

The red dot was a signal from the center, the home of KGB headquarters back in Moscow, and was part of an elaborate system of graphic signals used for communication.

In the 10 years he had spent in America, Jack had regular secret communication with other Russian agents, agents he never actually met in person.

But until today, Jack had never received the danger signal.

This is from the podcast, The Agent, and Jack Barski is with us now.

Hi, Jack.

How are you?

I'm good.

Good morning, and thank you.

I feel honored to be

called a friend of the Glen Beck program.

Can I have that in writing?

It'll probably get you in more trouble with the FBI and others, I think, at this point, Jack.

But thank you so much.

You're an amazing man who've lives an amazing life.

And had we talked in the 80s, I wouldn't have said that.

But you have turned into a great friend of the United States.

And I think what, you know,

I'm not going to reveal anything that is in the agent.

I just wanted to talk to you, Jack, because

something is happening here with this Ukraine situation, and I feel like everybody's pushing for war.

And

I'm not so excited about that because

this seems like this could quickly

become a nightmare of world war proportions.

You are so right.

And

we have to expect that Russia makes a lot of noise.

This is what Putin does.

And they threaten.

But what's happening in the United States and in other Western countries, we have a bunch of armchair warriors who are playing politics

with a situation that could easily

be accelerated into what you just call the World War III.

The first time I cringed when

our president called Putin a war criminal,

did that move the needle one way or the other?

I said, shut up.

Don't talk, act.

Because

going back and forth could easily, you know, Putin just might get triggered by that.

He is not

very amenable to being criticized.

And

that's a fact.

It's a proven historic fact.

Jack,

tell me, because I've gone back and forth in my head, other than them being incredibly different people,

Ronald Reagan called Russia

an evil empire and called for the destruction of it.

And I know reading history that the Kremlin, I think it was

and drop off,

really was quite a paranoid guy and thought for sure that the United States under Reagan would

launch missiles in a first strike.

What's the difference between then and now?

Well, first of all,

you're right about Andropov and his paranoia.

He thought,

and I was aware of that.

He started an opera called Operation Ryan, where everybody,

every KGB agent who operated in the West had to look out for signs of war.

But there was,

in those days,

the Soviet Union was already weakened

and there was more fear than

active aggression.

The Soviet rulers did not want to go to war.

And I think Vladimir Putin is very aggressive, and

he's maneuvered himself into this

position.

He's on a one-way street with no side street to duck into.

Yeah.

And the do you think he's

in his speech that he gave where he talked about a new Russia being born,

was that misinformation or is this

do you think he really believes that?

Oh, no,

he has not made a secret of that.

You know,

a couple of years ago, I think he wrote an essay, a lengthy essay,

about what he wants to do, and he wants to restore Russia's greatness, not the Soviet Union,

mind you, Russia's greatness.

And, you know,

this is his

life, okay?

This is him.

He is Russia.

And

he has,

you know,

he's convinced himself that

some greater power, I think he pretends to be a believer now.

He does pretend to be a believer.

I don't know if he does believe in God, but he thinks he's been appointed to do just that.

That's a little frightening.

So

what are we doing that we

I mean we came out for the first time, Jack, that I know of and confirmed that we sunk the Russian flagship in the Black Sea

and that we confirmed that we are giving them all kinds of targeting information to target their generals.

We are just beating our chest in a very terrifying way.

Well, I don't know who we is.

There's some leaker, right?

And then the media printed it.

The Pentagon and

Biden have denied that.

Now,

we do admit that we provide intelligence,

but

to say that we contributed to the destruction, make this statement that we have proof,

that's an exaggeration.

My God, this country is populated by leakers, and

everywhere you go, where you're supposed to keep things secret, it leaks out.

So, what do you see happening here, Jack, as you're sitting watching all of this stuff unfold?

Somebody who grew up under that system, you probably know geopolitics, at least

from a historic sense, probably better than most.

So,

to understand

what's going on here,

you need to put yourself into the shoes of Vladimir Putin, his leadership, and the Russian people in general.

And

Putin looks at this conflict as a conflict between himself and the West, not just Ukraine.

He isn't just saying it, he believes it.

Because this kind of thinking is rooted

in Russian history.

The Russian people and the Russian leaders have always been paranoid for a good reason.

Ever since

Russia was founded, it has been attacked from all sides, from the north, east, west, south.

It was the Mongols, it was the Turks, it was the Vikings, it was Napoleon, and it was Hitler.

So

there's a paranoia

gene in the Russian DNA, and Putin believes that

the West is coming after him.

And this only gets worse

as we shut down all of the financing and pull all of our people

out.

And when I say our people, pull all of our...

all of our financial systems and any of our businesses out of Russia.

That has to speak volumes.

It does, but I don't think it is as powerful as Americans like to believe because Putin,

we know that he's not stupid.

He expected that.

And when you look at what's happening right now, the ruble has stabilized.

Putin still is

I think in the last two months, he got more oil and gas revenue than in the five months before.

And he has allies.

I mean, right now, China is allied with him, and

India is

at best neutral.

Right.

So he is not, you know,

this is like

his economy

is like a set of gears that will have to deal with some sand.

But I don't think we can bring him down to his knees.

All right, back in just a second

with the agent.

He is a former Soviet spy from the United States.

He was deep undercover.

He was born in East Germany, came over here to spy for the Russians.

Fascinating guy.

We'll continue our conversation with Jack Barski here in just a second.

American Financing, NMLS, 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

First, let me tell you about American Financing, America's home for home loans.

I really truly believe that you can benefit from a 10-minute phone call, just a quick mortgage review.

It's free, no obligation conversation about your current loan, and maybe about your debts and your high-interest credit cards to see if one of their salary-based mortgage consultants can help you.

Let them run the numbers for you.

See if maybe they can save you $1,000 a month.

If they can, you'll be moving forward with a new custom loan that saves you a lot of money every single month.

And if they can't save you any money, they're just going to let you know.

It's what works best for you for your goals.

Family-owned business that is still family-focused.

They never charge you any upfront or hidden fees, just the facts.

Call them now.

It's AmericanFinancing.net, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or AmericanFinancing.net.

10 seconds, station ID.

So, Jack, do you feel we are close to war?

Well, you're obviously closer to war than we were just a few months ago, right?

Are we close to nuclear war?

You know, it's partially wishful thinking, but partially also

there's some reality behind that,

my believing that we're not that close.

I mean, Putin

in his speech did not threaten nuclear,

you know, exploding some nuclear missiles.

It was like status quo, let's keep on going, you know?

And I believe this conflict is going to drag on for a long time well and that's better than the alternative

you bet but uh

there's a there's a secondary war here and the secondary war is economic all right because you know western europe is is i think in great danger we as the united states economically are not as much in danger because we we have all the natural resources Western Europe,

they're so dependent on with regard to the energy

that

if that war drags out for a long time, they will be severely weakened.

Well, we're not doing anything with our energy.

And I tell you, Jack, I look at this and I think if I were a

former Soviet spy and still could think like the other side,

I'd be thrilled with what America was doing right now.

We are dismantling ourselves.

We have gas prices going through the roof.

We haven't even hit the summer.

We could be at $5 a gallon for the summer and maybe $7 or $8 for trucks, which will just cripple the nation.

I just want to make one statement, which is not necessarily political, because there's one thing about talking about the ideology that

runs rampant

in the Democrat Party.

But we are currently led by a bunch of people who don't don't know how to get things done.

They don't know how to execute.

And, you know, we're shooting ourselves in the foot.

And, you know,

you know that

the energy policy is driven by ideology, and that's global warming.

It's almost a religion.

Oh, yeah, it is.

Absolutely.

With Greta being the patron saint.

You know, you lived in East Germany.

How old were you when you left East Germany?

When I left East Germany, I was 26 because I went first to Moscow to improve my English.

And

when I came to the United States, I was 29.

So you're 29 years old.

You were recruited by the KGB.

You were trained

in all of these things.

And you being from East Germany, I would assume, you know, you were very well aware of the spying that they did and the manipulation of people that they did.

Did you notice that?

Did you know that when you joined the KGB, that they were...

Or were you just patriotic kind of our side versus their side?

I was a patriot, but I also was a revolutionary.

I was

going to contribute to, you know, build the paradise, the workers' paradise on earth.

And I was ideologically 100% behind the Soviet Union, East Germany, KGB, the Stasi,

simply because of ignorance.

This is what happens in

a state where all communication is regulated and is owned by the state.

We never got the truth.

So that's where I want to pick up our conversation.

We'll come back, take a quick break.

I want to pick it up there.

What are the things that you saw in

East Germany and Russia that you realized were bad that are seemingly starting up here, or am I mistaken?

Our conversation with Jack Barski continues in just a minute.

The Glenn Back Program.

Some causes are not conservative or liberal.

They're just American causes, and we should be contributing when we can.

There's a great cause, a great charity, Tunnel to Towers.

It's a foundation, and Charity Navigator rates them four out of four.

Since 9-11,

Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been supporting America's heroes and their families, and when a first responder or military service member doesn't come home and young children are left behind, Tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift their financial burden and bring their family to stability.

They also enable severely injured heroes to live more independent lives with free, smart homes.

And Operation Home Base, Tunnel to Towers, is gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans.

These are our heroes.

These are the people that we should, as community members, be helping ourselves.

Join Tunnel to Towers on their mission to do good in their honor.

A guy I find absolutely fascinating is Jack Barski.

He He is a former Soviet spy that was arrested by the FBI, I think, around 1990-something.

Jack, what year was it?

The FBI stopped you?

I was not arrested, by the way.

I was detained.

Detained?

Okay.

There's a big difference.

Yeah, all right.

There is.

There is.

1997.

97, okay.

And he is, his story is the audio documentary and podcast, The Agent, which if you haven't haven't listened to, is great, just fantastic.

Listen to it.

So, Jack, you were born in East Germany, recruited by the

KGB.

You assumed the identity of a U.S.-born citizen.

You spied here in the United States for 10 years on corporate America.

Then you became a trusted source for the FBI.

You started to

the

Soviet story, if you will, the things that drove you

as somebody who is willing to go in and possibly lose their life for their country, started to fall apart when

it started crumbling when I entered the workforce as a professional.

Okay, so because then I became sort of a functioning member of American society.

And all the

things that we were taught, how evil American corporations are, and how workers are being suppressed, turned out to be just damn lies.

But that didn't necessarily make me an anti-communist right away.

Many other things had to happen.

And

what really triggered me finally doing some investigation as to whether

I knew the truth or not was when the Berlin Wall came down.

And that was at a time when the internet was available to do research.

And one by one, all of these

beliefs that I had fell apart.

So I just withdrew at that point.

I decided to, you know, just going to be a private citizen and

not take any more political stance.

But

then 9-11 happened,

and, you know, and at at that point,

I became emotionally an American.

And what actually made me a fan of the United States as it was initially constructed is I took a 10-part online course on the American Constitution.

Wow.

Wow.

And to me, that is the most brilliant political document I have ever read and heard about.

It is.

It is.

It's phenomenal.

So, Jack,

when you see things like the

truth panel or disinformation panel from the DHS or the violence on the street that's called

a protest or just vandals,

and yet January 6th are terrorists and held with some of them without charge now for over a year.

We now have Twitter and Facebook and Google monitoring things and editing things.

Teachers' unions now are demanding more censorship from

Facebook.

Does this ring a bell to you at all?

Yeah, well,

I told you that,

you know, I was fundamentally brainwashed.

And the bottom line is

in a country, in a in a society where you control the message, you will be in charge.

And

you know,

our messages were totally controlled.

Putin manages to control the messages in his country to not 100%.

There's some leakage.

And

at this point,

the left in cahoots with the media, in cahoots with big tech, is working on taking

control of the message universe.

It's not that easy in our country.

You know, you're still on the air.

Yeah.

And, you know, and Elon Musk just bought Twitter.

It's not that easy.

We are a rebellious nation.

We are contrarians.

We want to hear the other side.

But

it's a slippery slope.

And

if it doesn't get reversed,

goodbye,

the country that was once America.

How do you convince people,

a new generation that are being indoctrinated?

How do you convince them of freedom of speech that actually means you have to tolerate the other side?

I honestly, I don't have an answer.

And this is really

what is

the biggest danger,

the root cause of why

it is quite reasonable to be pessimistic here.

We're already into the second generation

of Americans that have been raised, educated in high school and college by leftists.

And

this is the

it started with

the anti-Vietnam

War Vietnam movement,

where

a whole bunch of students

became radicalized with left-wing ideas and they became college professors and they raised and they taught the next generation of teachers.

So

it's very difficult

to run up against

prejudices in young minds that

were planted as they were young.

I have proof of that because when I went back to East Germany, to to Germany after so many years, and I had discussions with

contemporaries,

folks that I went to school and college with, you think

they have been able to shed all their communist ideology?

No.

What is planted in you as a young person is very difficult to reverse.

I had the luxury of a slow

and painless decontamination.

Most of my friends and

classmates in Germany

did not.

And that is the reason I'm worried about the future of this country, because

I really don't know how you...

It would be,

you know,

all of us

free thinkers would have to make an effort and work on the the young people that

we are in contact with, and

we might

be able to influence, but it takes a huge effort, and all of us need to participate in that.

If you had

your children, you have one child, right?

Oh, altogether I have five.

You have five.

Good for you.

Yeah.

If your children were school age, would you have them in our schools today?

Well, I have one of them.

She's school age, and she has never been in a public school, and she will not be in a public school.

She is currently enrolled in a Christian school where, interestingly enough, they teach how to think and how to argue.

Yeah.

and how to make and how to you know how to you know just like they they they do exactly uh the opposite of what uh you know Christian schools are being, but yes, and also what, you know, the rest of society thinks that what's happening in Christian schools where they teach nothing but memorizing the Bible.

Uh-uh.

Jack, thank you so much for talking to us.

And I really appreciate it.

And I've really enjoyed not only your book, but also your podcast.

It's really quite riveting.

Very, very good.

Well, thank you so much.

And I appreciate

how you actually positioned me at the beginning of the program.

I'm very grateful for that.

Thank you.

You're very kind, Jack.

Jack Barski, former Soviet spy.

He is also the storyline of The Agent, the podcast audio documentary, and the author of Deep Undercover.

He was a guy that was one of the consultants on the Americans, if you've never seen that.

It's quite an amazing series as well.

Jack Barski, again, a good friend of the Glenn Beck program.

So what are you paying for your cell phone every single month?

Expensive?

How much of that money is actually going to help Planned Parenthood?

Do you know?

How much of it would you want it to go to help Planned Parenthood?

Yeah, my guess is zero.

And that's why I'm not with Verizon.

I don't want any of my money going to far-left activities.

And, you know, they have a right to do whatever they want with their money, but I put some of that money into it.

So I don't want my money going there.

And I don't want my money supporting people that are trying to tear everything down that we believe in.

So

I don't know if you saw what Elon Musk posted.

He posted a screenshot of a translated message from Moscow's space chief.

And it said, from the testimony of the captured commander of the 36th Marine Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Dmitry

Kormaninov, it turns out, the internet terminals of Elon Musk's Starlink satellite company were delivered to the militants of the Nazi Azov Battalion.

According to our information, the delivery of the Starlink equipment was carried out by the Pentagon.

Elon Musk, thus, is involved in supplying the fascist forces in Ukraine with military communication equipment.

And for this, Elon,

you will be held accountable

like an adult, no matter how much you play the fool.

First, Elon

tweeted, the word Nazi doesn't seem to mean what he thinks it means, which I love.

And then he said, if I die under mysterious circumstances, it's been nice knowing you.

This guy has made enemies of everybody.

Absolutely everybody.

You know, powerful.

Can you imagine if somebody took him out?

I mean, would you know who it was?

No, everybody seems to be

upset with him in one way or another.

I mean, what he's done in Ukraine is amazing.

I mean, forget about, obviously,

the thing here is for the Russians to point out that the military is using the internet here to communicate.

But, I mean, honestly, just for the average person who, you know, the internet would be toast in Ukraine if not for

Elon Musk, just for the regular people to be able to access information.

It would be gone if not for Elon Musk, who just decided to act in a way that, you know,

before, what, a year ago would not have been possible?

Yeah.

Did you hear that?

Did you ever see these satellites by the way over your head, Glenn?

Have you ever seen the Starlink satellites go by?

No, I haven't.

It looks like Santa Claus.

There's like a long, in the middle of the night, I looked up one night and I was like, what the hell?

This is before I knew Elon Musk was even doing this.

Yeah.

What is that?

And it's like a long string of satellites, like seemingly that go on forever, and they just come across the sky, all like spaced evenly apart and just go across the sky.

It's really weird to see.

So, up in the uh, up at my ranch, uh, I just put Starlink in.

Oh, really?

And we just tested it over the weekend to see how stable it is.

Uh, and it's completely stable.

And the um, the word from my uh chief engineer was:

somehow or another, he has seemingly

solved or affected the light speed problem

because he's cut delays back

like a phenomenal amount to where, you know, you and I, when I'm up the ranch, we have a hard time talking to each other on air because it's the satellites are so slow.

He says he's cut it in half.

That's really great.

It's an amazing, amazing device.

And listen to this.

This is from the director of electronic warfare at the office of the Secretary of Defense.

Okay.

This guy is in charge of our electronic warfare.

He said

Starlink was able to fight off the attack faster than the U.S.

military could have been able to, and that officials need to learn something from Musk.

Starlink had slung a line of code and fixed it,

noting that the quick change rendered the attack not effective.

How they did that was

eye-watering to me.

There's really an interesting case to study and look at the agility that Starlink had in their ability to address this problem.

In the way that Starlink was able to upgrade when a threat showed up, we need to have that agility.

That's the United States government.

It's amazing.

And I keep seeing these pieces written by people talking about Elon Musk taking over Twitter that, look, I mean, there's a lot of hubbub here, but what's he really going to do?

There's not going to be much of a change.

Oh, I think

what business has Elon Musk touched that there wasn't a huge change in.

Yeah.

I mean, this is what he does.

When he takes over a business like this or starts one, he revolutionizes the industry.

And I don't think there's any reason to believe he's not going to attempt and very well succeed and try to do the same at Twitter.

If we have time, we should talk about it because he laid out some of his plan on Twitter, what he's going to do.

It starts with laying off or firing a thousand employees,

and then he's going to go back and he's going to hire more engineering people.

No word on if he's hiring more content regulators.

And then he's going to introduce something called Twitter Blue.

Yeah.

Twitter Blue already exists, right?

No, no, no.

He wants to...

Yes, it does.

I'm sorry.

But he wants to build up the subscriptions to Twitter Blue.

Yes.

So he wants to make sure that people are doing that because he said that's the way to protect the speech because we won't have any sponsors.

You don't have to worry about it.

You don't have to worry about it.

Or you have sponsors that don't mind what people say.

I would absolutely pay a reasonable monthly fee to get a better experience on Twitter that isn't, you know,

choreographed by a bunch of crazy leftists.

Yep, I would love that.

Me too, to actually see what's actually trending.

Yeah, I would.

Back in a minute.

This is the Glenn Back Program.

This is the Glenback program.

Hey,

this is gonna be a surprise to you.

But California says it needs more power to be able to keep the lights on this summer.

Yeah, yeah.

And other states are starting to join in going,

we might be headed towards a problem because we keep shutting down plants before we're ready to shut them down.

Who would have seen this coming?

Who would have seen it?

Besides everybody.

All right, let me tell you about rough greens.

Patricia wrote in about her dog's experience with rough greens.

I put rough greens on my cockapoo's food.

Yeah.

Don't think I could do a cockapoo.

Just for the name.

Just don't think I could do it.

He now eats early in the day.

He used to eat like that when he was a puppy.

Now he's like a puppy again.

He's 10 years old.

But he has a lot more energy now and

he doesn't itch as much as he was itching before.

Seems to be perfect for him.

He licks the bowl clean every time.

Rough Greens, not a dog food, it's something you put on your dog's food, and it's full of probiotics and antioxidants and all of these things.

It's rough greens.

California energy officials on Friday issued a sober forecast for the state's electrical grid.

They're saying now it lacks sufficient capacity to keep the lights on this summer

and beyond.

If heat waves and wildfires or other extreme events take their toll.

May I just ask Californians,

do you actually think that heat waves and wildfires

are

unexpected extreme events?

Because as an outsider,

it seems like every summer we go through this.

And when I say we go through this, you go through this.

But then we have to watch it and hear about all of the problems.

And yeah, some of us go out, not me, but some of us go out to actually help

put the fires out and everything else.

And here you go say, This is crazy.

This is, you know, it's global warming.

No, it's really not.

It's mismanagement of your forests, uh, for one.

Uh, and

you don't save any water, you know.

And

when you have rolling blackouts, it's it's not the trees' fault.

Whose fault is it?

Yours.

Because you refuse to build any kind of reservoir for water or any electrical plant.

But you feel so good about yourself, don't you?

Because we don't have a single coal-fire plant, not one coal-fire plant in California.

Yet, most of your electricity is still coming from coal-fire plants, just in another state.

Oh my gosh, these people make me want to to vomit.

As long as I don't see it.

As long as it doesn't view the view of the, block the view of the mountains.

You know, I don't want any of that smog here.

We'd have smog in Nevada or Utah or one of those other bordering states.

I don't even know what they are.

They're so racist and bigoted.

I hate them.

I don't mind if you build 25 coal power plants over there.

As long as we don't have the smog.

Ugh.

This comes from

the California beaches that have the oil rigs right off the shore.

Oh, yeah.

Which I think actually looks pretty cool.

I got to be honest with you.

I think it looks, I mean, you know, you get the idea.

There's a lot of water out there.

That's the normal ocean view.

You got some stuff to look at.

I think it looks pretty cool, frankly.

But yeah, no, it's a big, I mean, look, fossil fuels still dominate this country.

I mean, coal has come down quite a bit over the past few years, but natural gas has replaced it.

So, yes, it's a cleaner fossil fuel, but it is still a fossil fuel.

So, they had an online briefing,

and the officials are now forecasting a potential shortfall of 1,700 megawatts this year.

And

they say, if there's something unexpected,

like a forest fire,

not really extreme, not unexpected.

Just want to say, they say it could go as high as 5,000 megawatts.

So that's a lot of watts.

That's enough to put about 4 million people in the dark without electricity.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So, hmm.

Oh, and there's, by the way, they also say your energy prices are going to increase in California between 4

and 9%.

I think

if they're, if that's what they're saying, it'll be closer to 12 to 80%.

But maybe that's just me.

Now, there is a uh another group saying, hey, maybe we should slow down on this whole thing.

Uh, and uh,

uh, and that would be Jack Baer, the CEO of MISO.

He came out yesterday and he said, as we move forward,

know that when you put a solar panel or a wind turbine up,

it's not the same

as a thermal resource like coal or gas.

He says the issue on the rise throughout the country

and all throughout the West is many traditional and nuclear power plants are being retired to make way for the renewable sources of energy.

But the plants are being turned off faster than the renewable energy and battery storage can keep up.

John, did you you say that?

Come on.

I thought you were smarter than this.

We have magic fairy dust that's going to make everything work.

In your craziest,

busiest kids are screaming.

You're really pissed off because you're also hungry kind of moment.

Somebody says to you, Hey, I got an idea.

We're going to build these solar panels and things and wind power.

And that should be a few years in the future.

Should we turn off the nuclear power plant?

At the height of the screaming of the kids, you're like,

no,

and don't bother me.

Okay, don't you?

Really?

I mean, it's pretty logical.

Wouldn't it be nice if we had both?

If we had the solar and the wind and we kept that nuclear power plant running just in case we needed.

Of course, that'll never happen because there's never a need for it.

There's never a spike because of a heat wave or a forest fire or a mudslide or an earthquake.

There's net, it'll never happen.

Why keep the other power plant running very low

so you could crank it if you needed it?

Hmm.

That's an interesting question.

All I know is that all of this talk has convinced me even more to fully convert our economy to electric cars.

Because what could possibly go wrong with California?

You know what kills me is Elon Musk is even coming out going, we can't do this.

Stop it.

I mean, he's the guy to release the charge.

He's the guy that has become the richest guy in the world for pushing this stuff.

And he's even like, Slow down.

Even he's saying, hey, we may need to develop our fossil fuels for the near future, considering the global economic consequences and problems that we're having with energy.

So a guy who honestly is what I would refer to as an environmental extremist is even coming out and saying that stuff.

Well, he's only an extremist because

he built a car company

that really had no place to charge when he first started, you know, to charge the batteries.

And then he's building rocket ships to go to Mars to get away from Earth because it's yeah, but other than that, he's not an extremist.

He's not an extremist.

I bet he's not pro-life.

So

the next story that you probably should pay attention to is diesel.

We've been talking about this in the last couple of weeks.

This is very important.

Diesel fuel is the fuel that powers the economy.

Now, how does that work?

Well,

let's start over in China.

You want something from Ched?

You have to put it onto a big boat, a slowboat from China.

And that's powered by diesel.

Then it gets to our docks here.

And you know all of those big cranes and everything else that take that crap off of the ship and then put it on the ground?

run by diesel.

And then the forklifts that come and pick it up and then bring it over to the train, those run on diesel.

And then the train, those engines run on diesel.

And then the trucks that get it halfway across the country from the train, They're picked up again by the forklifts run by diesel.

And then they're put into a truck also run by diesel.

I love these people like, I'm not going to have to worry about anything because I have a Tesla.

Yeah,

I certainly hope that that grocery store that has food is within 400 miles of you.

Because I don't think it will when all the diesel dries up.

East Coast stockpiles are at their lowest since 1996.

Diesel and jet fuel at New York Harbor are now $200 a barrel.

Europe's move away from Russian energy is also hastening the rapid price appreciation.

They are

now bringing in 700,000 barrels a day of diesel from Russia, but they want to get out of that.

You know, don't we all?

Don't we all want to get out of that?

But maybe we should have a plan before we stop doing stuff.

They say that the rates for diesel are up now 90%.

Not a big deal.

Not a big deal.

They're making biofuel now.

They're reconfiguring all of these refineries that, don't worry, we haven't built a new refinery since when?

1972?

I got to believe those things are nimble, you know?

There's no active.

Seriously, if you bought a TV or a cell phone, well, well, there were no cell phones, a TV in 1972, are you telling me you wouldn't be getting the same crisp picture today

that you could get, you know, at a Walmart for $100?

I don't think so.

There's no technology that hasn't been,

you know,

just made better since 1972.

So here's what's happening.

These refineries are trying to, that that don't make diesel, are now trying to retool to make diesel, but they make what?

Say it with me, gasoline.

And you know why everybody gets, why gas goes up?

Because of California, some of these

refineries, they retool so they could make special blends for everybody.

And that causes problems.

Well, now a lot of our refineries are trying to retool so they can make trucks or

put the fuel in the trucks or the tractors of something called farms.

And that's going to cause our

gasoline to go up.

I bet this summer, I bet we're paying over five bucks a gallon.

And God only knows where diesel is going to be.

I saw it,

I was driving this weekend and saw the diesel prices.

They're stunning.

They're over $5 a gallon now.

Oh, yeah.

I think they're close to six now.

Well, I saw this weekend, and this is in like middle of nowhere, Oklahoma, and it was like $5.60 a gallon.

I can't even imagine what these guys are paying.

Yeah, I don't know how to go to the East Coast.

I mean, what could it be, right?

I don't even know.

I mean, it's got to be completely ridiculous.

But this is going to, you know, they like it at the Biden administration because it's going to help people transition.

Yeah.

You know, first, we won't have any

real electricity.

We won't have enough.

We'll have those rolling brownouts all across the country which i think americans are going to be cool with you know

i think we're really going to be cool with that i think i really honestly without any sarcasm i really think that they are building their own uh

hangman stand i really do i think the left is pushing this country so fast, so quickly into things that are really insanity and everybody is going to pay for it That I think they're going to look and say, get out, get out,

get out.

I think they're going to actually push the global warming thing even back

because people are going to be so angry at

what they're being told they have to pay

that

I think these people are going to be voted out.

As long as we still have free and fair elections,

these people are going to be voted out because Americans are not going to put up with $5 a gallon gasoline and just take it.

They're not.

They can't.

It's fascinating, too.

Like, who is the biggest?

You have the left saying global warming is this huge, huge crisis.

It's the worst thing in the world.

And yet,

who are the people that are constantly attacking Elon Musk?

It's not conservatives.

Conservatives are like, hey, this guy's, you know, we don't always agree with his climate stuff, but man, he's a pretty amazing guy and he's helping people and he's helping people.

He's made the electric car something that people actually want to buy.

Same thing on the other side with

the real solution here.

If you needed to solve global warming and have a zero-emission electricity option, it would be nuclear.

And yet, who are the people constantly attacking nuclear?

It's the Democrats, it's the left.

It's not us.

We're the ones encouraging it.

We want it to be developed.

And if they're shutting it down, and if you had nuclear,

you could make an endless supply of hydrogen

in the off hours when people are sleeping, you keep the plant running, same level, and you just make hydrogen.

You have an endless support of clean, zero-emissions energy that you can clearly get and make more every single day.

It's insanity.

You can use that would be, you could use that for hydrogen vehicles if those were developed and then would be, obviously, in this situation.

Or electric cars.

I mean, you'd also have the electric, you'd have enough to go with the electric cars.

You wouldn't need all of the craziness that they're trying to do now.

So

why is that?

Why is that?

Because this isn't about anything except killing capitalism, killing the West.

It's clear.

There are two solutions, and they're all rolled into one, nuclear energy.

I just saw this documentary, a scariest damn documentary I've ever seen about Three Mile Island.

My gosh, you would think that it was nothing but killed a million children.

But how did you make Three Mile Island scary?

Because the maximum radiation

was the equivalent of a full set of chest x-rays.

No, still.

Oh, my gosh.

To any citizen.

Oh my gosh, you got through the documentary.

No.

They never get down to exactly how much has been released.

Oh, that's not part of the documentary.

It was radiation that was released.

Yeah.

It's ridiculous.

Anyway, let me tell you about Goldline.

Wow.

You remember when inflation was in?

Yeah, it was really in back in the 70s and it's really in again.

Inflation, the government will tell you that is running around 9%.

No,

no, the shadow stats where you can actually, you know, gauge, you actually include things like gas and rent.

food, things like that.

It shows that it's running at about 18%.

Congratulations.

Ask Forbes.

Ask Forbes.

GDP growth is negative and inflation is running high.

Basic smart investment strategy.

If the dollar is getting weaker, invest in whatever it's weaker than.

Commodities are now like precious metals.

You can weather a stagflation period if you have something that is holding its value.

Gold will not get more and more expensive.

It's that the dollar is getting cheaper and cheaper, so it can't buy as much.

Tune in in just a moment to find out your personal rate of inflation or to hear me light my computer on fire.

welcome to the glenbeck program uh your personal inflation rate coming up in uh just a second i want to uh share with you from uh national review and jim garrity there is a There is a great story on the food facility fires.

I've been asked about this over and over again, and we looked into it, and

it doesn't seem to be out of the normal, believe it or not.

Now, there are some things that, well, for instance,

National Review writes, in a typical year, how many plane crashes do we have into food processing plants?

What's your guess?

How many planes crash into a food processing plant?

I mean, say seven a week, 300.

No, none?

Yeah, none.

Okay, zero.

A bad year, maybe.

One, one, okay.

So, so far this year, we've had two.

That's okay, that's May, yeah, and so you would think, hmm, there's something wrong, but two, I mean, it's really unlikely, but okay, okay, maybe, okay, I don't know how.

All right, so let's look, let's look at everything that's been happening.

A plane crashed into an Idaho potato and food processing plant, killing the pilot.

Police say

Gem Straight processing in Hayburn, East Idaho at about 8.35 in the morning on Wednesday.

The pilot was the only person in the plane and died during the crash.

Police said none of the employees at the processing plant were injured.

Okay, so it had to be a kamikaze food plant guy.

Okay, because he flew the plane into the plant.

Then, just a couple of weeks later, Covington, Georgia, firefighters responded to a plane crash that killed two people Thursday at the General Mills food processing plant.

The small plane crashed apparently after taking off from a runway at the Covington Municipal Airport.

Six tractor trailers were damaged as a result of the crash.

Both occupants of the plane died.

However, local officials were grateful the plane did not strike the plant building, which could have resulted in greater loss of life.

So, if you want to go for the plane crash idea,

yeah,

two plane crashes in or near food processing plants is weird.

It is weird.

But,

well, let me go on.

February 5th, massive, these are the headlines.

Massive fire swept through Wisconsin River meets on Thursday, destroying part of the facility.

Then February 22nd, the Shears Food Plant in Hermiston, Oregon caught fire after a propane boiler exploded.

March 17th, a structure fire at the Walmart Distribution Center in Plainville, Indiana broke out about noon on Wednesday.

A thousand employees were inside, but none were injured.

One firefighter suffered minor injuries.

March 22nd, a fire broke out at a Nestle hot pockets plant in George, in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

It happened on March 16th.

The facility was still closed as of March 21st.

March 25th, officials believe a deep frying machine is behind the fire that destroyed a potato processing facility facility in Belfast.

April 13th, firefighters from several departments in Maine helped battle a massive fire that destroyed a butcher shop and meat market in Center Conway, New Hampshire.

And April 30th, soybean processing tank caught fire at the Purdue Farms plant in Chesapeake, Virginia.

Okay.

I mean,

that's a lot, right?

That's a lot.

Okay, so here's how we have looked at it, and this is exactly the way Jim Garrity has looked at it.

Not all the fires or crashes did significant damage.

In the Chesapeake soybean facility fire, the plant manager said the fire had little to no impact on their operations.

In the Georgia crash, the plane didn't hit the building, no employees were harmed, and General Mills spokesperson said the plant didn't experience any disruption and remains fully operational.

The pilot in that crash, by the way, was identified as a student pilot and the other person was the flight instructor.

So, I mean, unless

it was some sort of anti-food processing plant

flight instructor that took that plane down and missed the plant, that's probably not one to count.

Second, none of the fires so far have been declared cases of arson.

This is really important because I, you know, I went looking at these and I thought to myself, I don't know, that seems like a lot.

But when we really started looking, none of them have been deemed arson.

And that's from coast to coast.

If any of them had been deemed arson, two of them, I would have been like, well, let's look into this.

In any given year, there are half a million fires reported to local fire departments.

About 5,300 of them are manufacturing or processing facilities.

That comes to about 440 per month.

And if there are fires in 440 manufacturing or processing facilities a month from coast to coast, wouldn't we expect at least a handful of these to be at food processing facilities?

In fact, the list above stretches the definition of food processing facilities because the Walmart Distribution Center also stored clothes and cardboard, and the New Hampshire fire happened at a local local butcher shop.

Third, if you were a terrorist or a foreign agent or somebody in the deep state

attempting to choke off the American food distribution network, would you start with a potato chip maker in Oregon or the source for hot pockets in Arkansas?

Then move on to a soybean processing tank in Virginia.

If you were a nefarious terrorist group or hostile foreign power and had not, you know, not merely one suicide pilot, but two of them, as in the case of the Georgia crash,

who, why were they there?

Why not use that third person to bring down another plane?

You wouldn't bring a passenger along.

And would you really aim for a potato processing plant in southern Idaho than the Georgia plant where they make cinnamon toast crunch?

The U.S.

had,

as of 2017, the U.S.

had 36,486 food and beverage processing establishments.

What's most likely happening, according to Jim Garrity, is the Bader-Meinhoff phenomena.

You may not know what the Baiter-Manhoff

Meinhoff phenomena is, but you've experienced it.

Have you ever gone to buy a car and then suddenly they're everywhere?

Oh, yeah, for sure.

That is that phenomenon.

It's a frequency illusion that when things start to happen, and we are now looking at food shortages, we all know it.

We also all know some things aren't being done by our government that are right.

We also know

there are people that, you know,

like catastrophe and, you know, swim in really calm waters of catastrophe, as they look at it, never waste it.

So we have these things percolating.

And as you see one fire and then another, these are not out of the normal, and they're not arson,

they're not terrorist strikes, and they don't seem to be affecting

big plants.

And that's what you would go after, are the big plants.

That's really good news.

That's really good news.

And that sort of thing happens to everybody.

I mean, on the left, it happens all the time.

One recent example was the Australian fires.

Remember how big of a deal this was?

Everyone was on, you know, online.

They were running fundraisers.

And it was a big deal.

I'm not saying the Australian fires a few years ago were not, but everyone was saying that, like, this is global warming, and look how terrible this is, and the environment, and weather weirding, and all of this.

And at the end of the year,

there was

less square mileage burned in Australia than average That year, less than average.

Isn't that crazy?

Crazy.

Yeah.

And why is it happening to them?

This is like when you're buying a new car, you're focused on that.

When you're worried about global warming, you're focused on that.

When you're worried about food shortages and you see things that you've not noticed before, it's because you weren't paying attention to it that way.

How many times have we paid attention to a forest fire in Australia?

Well, we paid attention that year because the the people who are running the news are talking about forest fires

and global warming.

That is what happens.

And you get down the, and I think this happens all the time with global warming.

Every time there's a moderately strange weather event that's slightly out of the ordinary, this is what it's blamed on every single time.

And everyone's a meteorologist.

And if you really want to know what's going to cause food shortages, it's Russia and Ukraine and our response to it.

That's really what is going to cause

the most problems of getting food all around the world.

What about China and the COVID shutdowns that they're still kind of going through?

That's it.

That's big as well.

Have you seen the Shanghai ports, the satellite photos from 2020 and then today?

Incredible difference.

It is

today.

It's backed up like crazy basically.

Oh, it's like you're looking at the stars in the sky.

There are so many ships out there.

We are headed for real, real trouble, you know, in the next, I don't even know, three to six, seven months when it comes to items not being available.

Inflation program.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're so glad that you're here.

Thank you for listening.

The New York Times has just put together your personal inflation.

And have you taken it yet?

Stephen?

You have.

Yes, seven questions.

Okay.

And you have to answer them.

Basically, the average rate is something like 8.5% is what they're saying now.

Now we know there's varying calculations of that.

But some basic questions help you figure out your own personal inflation rate.

So let me ask you.

Let me give you the quiz here.

Did you buy a car in the last year?

I bought a new car, a used car, a new and used car, or I didn't buy a car.

Used car.

Used car.

Okay.

So now your inflation rate went from 8.5% up to 10.1%.

Okay.

How much do you drive?

I don't drive or I use an electric car.

I drive less than 150 miles per week, 150 to 400 miles a week, or over 400.

So you figure out.

I usually put about 12,000 miles on a car in a year.

So let's see, 12,000 divided by 52 is

230 miles.

So between 150 and 400.

Okay, yeah.

Okay.

That gets you from 10.1 to 10.3%.

Okay.

How much do you travel?

I typically take three or more trips a year for you, right?

Yeah.

That's the highest number.

So that's going to get you up to 11.4%.

Are you a vegetarian?

No.

Is there a total opposite?

Okay, I am not a vegetarian.

Now it goes you from 11.4 to 11.5%.

Do you heat your home with oil?

No.

No, I don't.

Okay, that brings you 11.5% back down to 11.4%.

How often do you eat out?

What about oil?

You said oil.

What about gas?

It's just the only question is, do you heat your home with oil?

I don't know.

I didn't make the quiz up.

This is made by an economist.

Go ahead.

I rarely eat out.

I typically eat out one or two days a week or several days of the week.

I'd say one or two.

One or two.

Okay.

I would imagine that includes like, you know, Uber.

Yes.

Oh, yeah.

I would say that counts.

I mean, you know, I don't know.

I might put you at three per week, but.

Yeah, go ahead, put three.

I mean, there is a Sonic cut by you every single day.

So let's see, several days a week.

Okay.

And then do you pay for school?

I don't pay for school.

I pay for.

Or don't pay for school.

Pay taxes.

Okay.

Glenn, your inflation rate, 11.5%.

So instead of 8.5, yours is 11.5%.

Now, the biggest thing for you is going to be buying a used car, which is a big deal.

But

just the driving and it made it a big deal as well, a difference as well to pop you up to 11.5%.

I saw somebody selling a,

what is it?

It was a Range Rover, a Defender, one of those new Defenders.

It was last year, and I think they're what, 120,000, something like that?

I don't know.

They were selling a used one for $180,000.

Incredible.

I thought,

good work if you can get it, dude.

But what are you going to drive?

You know, you're not

buying a used car, selling your car now, even if you can get that money.

What are you going to replace it with?

Yeah, that's really the problem.

Yeah, there's really nothing.

There's no way to just sell a car and, I mean, unless you're working at home, right?

Maybe, maybe that would be a decision you might make and take an occasional Uber.

I don't know.

Yeah, that would be great because, you know, then we wouldn't, we could help the planet.

If we all just sold our cars and just worked from home, wow, maybe we wouldn't have an oil shortage.

Maybe we wouldn't have.

Oh, it's enticing.

It's enticing.

We can go back to those glory days of March 2020.

Oh, weren't those the days?

Those were great.

And if we're really lucky, we can go back to

you know, where nobody had a car.

Yeah.

Oh, that'll be really fun.

By the way, when I took this quiz, I had to say, no, I have not bought a car in the past year because I ordered one nine months ago, but I didn't actually.

You haven't got it.

Yeah.

So what's your inflation rate?

Mine was actually low.

It was 8.2% or something, which is interesting.

I think I wasn't sure.

Because that's vegetarian, too.

Vegetarian helps me on that one.

It's usually more.

Yeah, usually vegetarian eating is really expensive.

But again,

maybe we can get to a place to where no one can really afford meat except for like a special occasion.

And if you want to have some good animal protein,

have you thought about bugs?

Because they're delicious and the delicacy.

I'm surprised the New York Times didn't have that.

Vegetarian or do you eat bugs?
