I get so many headaches every month.

It could be chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more.

Botox, autobotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine.

It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

Alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck, and injection, site pain, fatigue, and headache.

Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness.

Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection.

Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lugarix's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Why wait?

Ask your doctor.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day I'm turned around.

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

This is the Glenn Back program.

Hello, America, and welcome to Friday.

There is a lot going on.

We want to start with the SCOTUS decision.

And Senator Mike Lee joins us in 60 seconds.

All right, the supply chain issues that we are facing, the incredibly high inflation,

everybody is thinking about this.

I'm going to give you a story today.

They are closing the factories in China.

We are headed for what experts are now calling the mother of all shutdowns and supply chain problems.

We'll give you this, But if I want you to think this through, if you have a car that is out of warranty, if it's anything like my cars, my trucks that are out of warranty, they're hanging on by a shoestring from time to time.

And when they go into the shop, it could be enormous amounts of money.

CarShield has saved me literally thousands.

One repair would have taken my truck out.

There's no way I would have fixed it

because it was like $6,000.

And I'm like, are you kidding me?

Well, you should have called me before you did the repair.

And they're like, no, no, no, Car Shield took care of all of it.

It was covered.

I'm like, oh my gosh, thank you.

If you have a car that goes down now, just think of what it's going to take for you to have a rental car because the part may not be here.

You can't go buy a new car.

I saw Stu had a special this week on Stu Does America.

He did it on car sales.

I mean,

it's off the charts.

I mean, you just can't get a new car.

And if you want a used car, it's going to go for a pounding.

Get the insurance right now get your car covered with car shield the best defense against costly repairs that could have put a deep freeze on your plans and finances it's car shield.com slash back that's car shield.com slash back deductible may apply

all right mr mike lee otherwise known as the great senator mike lee

uh is here to talk to us a little bit about uh SCOTUS and some of the other things that are going on in Washington this week.

Hi, Mike.

How are you?

Good to be with you as always, Glenn.

Thank you.

Well, I'm in an iron lung now, Mike.

I don't know if you know that, but I've been trying to hide it.

But now I think, you know, now that I've taken the soundproofing out, you can hear the echo of the iron lung that I'm in today.

It's ridiculous how, I mean, I did the show the entire time I have COVID.

I have a cough.

It is into my lungs, but it's not a bad problem.

And I've been trending for two days with people wishing me, you know, death.

It's crazy.

But, Mike, let's go to SCOTIS.

I feel like, and this is why I wanted you on, I feel like we have another John Roberts half-measure.

I feel like we won with

the battle in our businesses, but we lost with the Department of Health.

Yeah, yeah, that's true.

What the Supreme Court did was to say that the OSHA mandate, that dealing with every employer, the part of the mandate that said 84 million Americans, including, by the way, 500,000 Utah's, are at risk of losing their jobs if they don't vow to presidential medical orthodoxy.

Fortunately, for all of us, the Supreme Court had the courage to stand up and say, no, no, they can't do that.

This is not a dictatorship.

And this is

even the same.

They didn't really, they only said OSHA can't do do that because it's out of bounds.

They didn't say the federal government, did they?

Right, right.

So this is the part dealing with the 84 million Americans covered by the OSHA mandate.

That dealing with the part that says we will fine any employer with more than 99 workers if they don't fire every worker who refuses to get vaccinated.

With respect to the so-called CMS mandate, that's dealing with Medicare and Medicaid programs and healthcare systems that interact with them, that receive money from them.

The Supreme Court punted.

The Supreme Court said, we're going to let this litigation play out.

We're not going to weigh in right now.

We're not going to stop this abruptly.

And so this was, look, as between the two, if we were going to have to win one and have the court punt on the other, I'd a whole lot rather win the one that we did win yesterday.

I wish we had won both.

Now, Mike,

what's concerning to me is

the White House just doesn't care.

It's not even going through Congress anymore.

It's almost as the Supreme Court is a legislative body at this point because immediately they started revamping.

They're working now on

because of cinema and others

not going to work on this filibuster thing.

They're now doing executive orders.

I mean, there's just no stopping these guys.

And the Supreme Court is not the place for legislation.

No, no, it's not.

And look, this is part of a syndrome of self-importance that pervades Washington, D.C., especially within the executive branch.

One in which people are willing to say, you know, we can't really trust the peasantry.

We can't really trust those who are elected by the people at the most regular intervals to pass legislation.

We're going to have to have the experts do it.

This is the Woodrow Wilson dream for America, is that you'd have only Tony Fauci's in charge of everything.

Little Tony Fauci's in charge of every area of the American economy.

Seasoned, wise experts, infallible in their approach.

And only rarely, of course, willing to call elected lawmakers morons.

So, Mike, I had a sit-down with Donald Trump, and I don't know if you saw it.

It was a couple of weeks ago.

It was all about the future, not about the past.

And I said to him, you know, things are so out of control that

a serious pruning, and I would be for the shutdown of all these federal agencies, you know, to a skeletal staff.

And

I said, it's just completely out of control right now.

It's almost like we need a system

reboot and set it back to factory settings.

That's going to be impossible to get this thing back under control unless we have a strong GOP that understands what we're fighting and what we're up against.

And it's not Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.

It's much bigger than that.

Are you seeing troops starting to rally in the GOP?

Are we playing the same game with the McConnells and stuff?

Without question, I'm seeing this troop starting to rally, and I'm seeing fantastic, exciting new candidates like Josh Mandel in Ohio coming up through the ranks.

People who are willing, as you say, to come back and reimpose the factory settings.

What are the factory settings in our system?

Well, in our system, that's the Constitution.

And it's a document that still works today.

It's as relevant as it was back when it was written in 1787.

But we have to start following it.

And one of the things that it says, the very first operative provision of it, is that Congress makes the laws.

All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in the Congress of the United States.

We've drifted far from even that very first and critically important definition.

There's a reason for that, because we entrust the lawmaking power, which is inherently the most dangerous power in government, only to people who are elected by the people at the most

regular intervals.

And if we ever cease to do that, as we have been lately, because we've been delegating it all to Tony Fauci's, we deviate from the factory factory settings.

Let's restore the factory settings.

So Kirsten Sinema gave a great speech yesterday on the filibuster.

I don't think they even have 49 or 48 votes for this thing,

but she came out quite eloquently.

I'm impressed by

some of her

stances on

reason.

Yes, look, Kirsten Sinema is fantastic.

She's a dear friend.

She and I are both graduates of Brigham Young University.

And while we don't agree on everything and we have different party affiliations, I have tremendous respect for Kirsten.

In fact, I was just talking to her last night, telling her, you know, she's a hero.

She's willing to stand up for things, even when it's difficult.

In fact, she seems to have

her very best days, especially when it's difficult.

And I admire that tremendously.

Are you sensing a change in the Democratic Party?

I mean, the poll numbers are ⁇ I've never seen anything like this.

And

are they still able to bully their people into line as much as they were?

That appears to be their MO.

And as far as I can tell, Glenn, they're doubling down on that.

Like they're saying, okay, this hasn't been working, so we've got to give it even more Cowbell.

And I think that's going to end badly for them.

So I was

thinking about COVID a lot.

I have it.

My family has it.

Everybody I know has it.

I mean, the scientists that are down in the Antarctic, they have it as well.

I mean, everyone's going to get this variety.

And it's good.

I mean,

it's causing us a lot of pain and it is causing death, but the death rate is down 91%.

This becomes an endemic, which is really good.

But speaking of doubling down, I'm seeing the president saying he wants to push businesses to choose to do this anyway.

They are getting more and more draconian.

There's calls today for getting Joe Rogan off the air and Spotify to fire him and censor him because of the COVID laws or the COVID lies, as they say, that he is spreading.

They're talking now about much more draconian

kind of

rules and laws.

Do you see this

ending well here, Mike?

I mean,

we're at the tail end of COVID, and they seem to be going even crazier.

Yeah.

You know,

there's a reason why we have a First Amendment.

There's a reason why we've decided that government ought not be able to punish people for contradicting government orthodoxy.

And the reason is there's really disproportionate bargaining power.

The one thing that makes government government is its ability to use force with official sanction, with the seal, with the badge.

And so it really is dangerous.

We should take these things very seriously.

Whenever they come out and true government offices try to threaten, intimidate, belittle people, true government office, to the point that they can't express a differing opinion on a matter of public policy, that's really dangerous.

Well, you have Joe Biden coming out.

I think yesterday Joe Biden came out, it was yesterday, the day before, and said to social media, you have got to shut these shows down.

I mean, he is pressuring big businesses to become even more draconian on the First Amendment.

This is, I mean, this is really dangerous.

It really is.

And when you get to the point where a government is as big and is as powerful as the federal government is, as the executive branch in particular is,

You have to stop and wonder whether we've just allowed it to get too big.

Because if there's that much subtlety and sophistry within that system, we've got to tear it down and get it back to the basics of what the federal government is supposed to be doing: national defense, trademarks, copyrights, and patents, immigration, naturalization, regulating trade or commerce between the states with foreign nations and with the Indian tribes.

There are a few other powers, but that's it in a nutshell.

We're into everything right now, and because we're into everything, they can do anything they want.

Mike,

the Ray Epps situation and January 6th, I mean, I don't even understand it.

Can you give me an update on

what's happening with the January 6th investigation?

Yep.

So Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, and I, along with the rest of our colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee, questioned at length these officials from the FBI and the Department of Justice the other day.

We asked the most basic questions about who was arrested, why, when, what was being investigated, what the situation was with Ray Epps, Time after time after time, they told us, I'm sorry, I don't have that information.

After a while,

hang on just a second.

Can you put that into perspective, Mike?

How often does something like that happen?

How out of the norm was this line of questioning and their answers?

Well, it's not at all uncommon to have an executive branch employee or high-ranking official in front of a committee and to have us ask them a question and have them say, I don't know the answer.

But what's different here is we were asking them questions about the very topic that they had agreed to come and testify about in front of the Senate Judici Committee.

That's what's so spooky about this.

They came before us to talk about those very issues, and they appeared not to know a thing about them.

So they're either lying or they are being willfully ignorant of what happened.

And I'm not sure which one is worse, but they're both awfully bad.

So, Ray Epps,

do we have any real indication that he may be an FBI, or is this just speculation because we don't know what's going on?

When these officials were asked that question at this hearing earlier this week, they just refused to answer.

They just said, can't talk about that.

And so we're going to keep hounding them until we get answers.

It appears to me, based on the way they answered, now, look, if in fact he was unknown to the FBI prior to January 6th, if in fact he had no association with them, I can't imagine that these officials from FBI and DOA wouldn't have said as much at the time, that they wouldn't have at least said, we're not sure who he is, or he's not connected with us.

They did not say that.

They instead just punted and said they couldn't answer it.

And so that's a real problem, and we've got to get to the bottom of it.

Because

if that is true, if we had this person, if Rayvs were in fact someone acting for and on behalf of the federal government and agitating as he obviously was in these video clips and encouraging people to engage in unlawful activity, one has to wonder how many other people like him were there.

Correct.

And at whose direction were they operating?

Mike,

last question.

I know you have to run, but this week I released the book on the Great Reset.

I have to send you a copy.

We cannot keep it in stock.

Literally, we cannot keep it in stock.

It's the best, fastest-selling book

I've ever written.

And we're just trying to get the

printers to keep up with the demand.

So I'll send you a copy or you can get it on Kindle.

But one of my researchers asked today, where do we stand on the $100,000 or the $10,000 snoop on bank accounts?

Did that finally pass through?

Is that still being debated?

No, that has not passed through, and that's going to pass through over my dead body.

That cannot happen.

We're not going to let that happen.

And if your listeners want to learn more about it, they can always go to leafersenate.com or they can learn about these and other topics we've discussed.

Mike Lee,

the only man in America that I would gladly endorse if it wasn't a death knell to everybody's

political career every time I've done it in the past.

But you are fantastic and I wish you the best.

Thank you very much, Mike.

Thanks so much, bud.

You bet.

Mike Lee for Senate.

Jodi writes in about her experience with Relief Factor.

She says, Let me tell you how much I love Relief Factor.

Within a week of taking it, my pain and my stiffness from my arthritis and knee injury were gone.

Not only do I feel better during the day, but I also sleep better at night.

Thank you, thank you.

Jodi, thank you for trying Relief Factor.

Thanks for just giving it the benefit of the doubt and risking the 19 bucks.

It has four key ingredients, and that's the difference.

You'll take ibuprofen, and it is attacking your inflammation one way.

The doctors that put together Relief Factor said, well, there's four different avenues.

Why don't we combine all four?

That's why it works so well for so many people.

Now, it doesn't work for everybody, but 70% of the people who try it go on to order more.

So try the three-week quick start, just like Jodi did, just like I did, and get your life back.

It's Relief Factor.

ReliefFactor.com, relief factor.com, or call 800, the number four relief.

Get out of pain, get back into the fight.

Relief Factor, feel the difference.

10 seconds, station ID.

This is the Glenbeck program, and as I told you a few minutes ago, the press is really having a field day with me, and I do have to come clean with you.

I am in an iron lung now.

It went into my lungs.

I think it's turning into a little bit of lung leprosy at this point as well.

I am

on my deathbed.

Doctors say there's no chance of recovery, and I should have gotten the vaccine.

So

if you just listened to Anthony Pauci, this would not have occurred.

Go ahead.

I know, I know, I know.

And if I could have just helped out Big Pharma, you know, and looked the other way with the government,

it would have been great.

Actually,

you know,

I'm fine.

I mentioned to Mark Levin on his show, and he was very concerned about the lung thing.

And it is in my lungs.

I'm coughing, but it's not a big deal.

I'm fine.

I have been working every day

and producing like never before.

I mean,

I think

somebody was over my house last night and they came in and they were looking at the art projects I'm working on and they said, you're a machine.

Is COVID like doing the opposite for you?

And in some ways, it is.

And, you know, the people who are

who are supposedly responsible human beings are just becoming vampires, blood-sucking vampires.

I've been trending now for a day

on

COVID and being sick with COVID.

I've never told anyone not to get the vaccine.

I've told you, I even considered it.

When we had to go to Afghanistan, the word was that we had to get a vaccine.

My doctor told me not to get the vaccine because I had already had COVID.

And he said, let's watch and start to see when people start getting it again.

Maybe your antibodies.

I had an antibody test just a few weeks ago,

before Christmas, to see if I still had the antibodies.

They were getting weaker, but I had it really bad the first time.

I mean, I was not able, I was in full strength for three weeks.

I haven't lost my strength this time.

And, you know,

I'm not saying, hey, people who have the four vaccines, I'm working with a guy today who has COVID, and he had the vaccine, he had the booster.

I'm not saying, hey, how's that working out for you?

It's the way life is, man.

It's a combination of things that are all working together.

And COVID is getting easier to battle.

Can we please get a grip and not lose our humanity?

The Glenn Back program.

You find that funny stuff?

The perfect exclamation point to that was you coughing.

Oh, it's in his lungs.

I can see him keeling over media.

Celebrate.

Yeah.

Life lock.

Look,

things are coming our way that

are just going to be difficult for all of us to handle.

And there are too many things, too many fires to put all of them out or to watch all of them.

One of those things is cyber criminals and cybersecurity.

I mean,

I don't know what to do.

And if Lifelock would just call me and they didn't have a plan, because they've called me before, hey, it looks like somebody's trying to get in.

Did you open this count or did you do this?

And I'm like, no, then they take care of it and they help me, you know, clean it up and make sure it's there.

I wouldn't know what to do.

You know, somebody could take all of your information and be buying stuff and wrecking your life and you wouldn't know it.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We welcome back into the fold Mr.

Pat Gray, who has been out for a few days with COVID himself.

He did not have the vaccine.

His wife did have the vaccine.

They both

had COVID.

And what was the experience, Pat?

It was fun.

I had a great time.

Was yours better or worse, or are they about the same between you and your wife?

Mine was much worse than my my wife's.

She had a really mild case.

Yeah.

Okay, so the vaccine thing.

You wouldn't?

No.

No, there was a couple of days of real misery.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, I think there's, I mean, you know, the first day that I had it this time around, it was real misery, but it lasted three weeks with me.

I never got my energy back for almost a month.

The first time I had this, you know, when I got the first round before there was even a vaccine.

And it was really, it was scary and it was, it was bad.

Yeah.

And I wondered, you know, we've had several friends who got it before there was a vaccine and they had the same experience.

But this round for me is, it's just like a, it was like a bad cold.

It was really miserable the first 30 hours

and then it just is kind of turned into a cold.

And that's good news.

Yeah, that's good.

That's good stuff.

Did you, were you unable to eat?

I couldn't eat for like a week.

I just, I'd take a bite bite of food and I was done.

I lost 15 pounds.

I've never had a problem with that.

So this is good for you then.

It was a good guy plan.

I've been actually trying to watch what I eat, et cetera, et cetera.

And I've lost 15 pounds in a week and a half as well, but I could eat any.

I mean, people, I'm in my man cave

garage, and people pointed out that I have a kitchen in my garage.

And I'm like, yeah, I have a kitchen in almost every room of my house.

Everyone should have a kitchen.

Everywhere except the bathroom.

That's a little

you could have a fridge, you know, there.

I don't know if you saw this.

This just came out in Rolling Stone today.

A menace to public health.

Doctors demand Spotify puts an end to the COVID lies on the Joe Rogan experience.

They are now, 200 doctors and scientists are now gathering together and they are demanding that Spotify cancel Joe Rogan and stop him from speaking out.

This is

fascism.

Absolute fascism.

And hopefully they don't cave in this time.

They've already weathered one of those storms.

We'll see if they do it again.

It's particularly tough for them with Joe Rogan because it's not like

Apple carries our podcasts and so does Spotify.

All three, Pat Gray Unleashed, Studios America, Glenn Beck Radio Program, all those are carried on all these places.

It's different with Spotify.

Spotify literally pays Joe Rogan and has him exclusively on their platform.

So they get all the pressure.

It's not split up between all the different

providers.

And, you know, this is a move on the left.

This is not like some random thing where a bunch of employees suddenly woke up and said, you know what, we don't like this.

They launched an effort coming back just a few weeks ago with a report from the Brookings Institution, an article in the New York Times, advertisement campaigns.

We need to stop these podcasts.

These podcasts are doing this.

Just like they were going after Twitter accounts and Facebook accounts before, they've now expanded that to come after podcasts.

So

there really is no safe space for people.

Remember, I couldn't be on network television.

They first kicked me off of ABC.

Then they made sure that I couldn't get a job in cable news.

They did everything they could.

So they all said,

you just have to go to the Wild West.

So we did.

We started our own thing.

We started the Blaze.

We pioneered

the live streaming television podcast for serious

people.

And now that's not good enough.

There is no space.

They're coming after talk radio.

They're coming after our podcasts.

They're coming after our websites.

And this is why it is so important that you support those voices that you believe are giving you the truth.

Joe Rogan, I mean, so you know, Joe Rogan has about 20 million listeners a week.

That is the height of the Rush Limbaugh

time.

Those numbers are not put together.

Fox News, even, you know, in its heyday,

Bill O'Reilly and I probably do

$17 million a week.

Is that right?

$15 million a week on television.

He is exploded.

And it's because he's just asking regular questions, and he's willing to talk to pretty much anyone.

And they can't have that.

And they know the power of going directly to the people.

They have to have gatekeepers.

I wish him the best.

Wish him the best.

But,

you know, there is only one company.

We're talking about our contracts now.

And there's only one company that I would ever consider doing a contract with yet, and it's because they've been my partner since 1989, and I know them.

And, you know, that's iHeartRadio.

They've been just,

they'll put on all points of view.

They have people that I really disagree with on the left, and they have people that they disagree with on the right.

And that's the way it's supposed to be.

These other companies, I don't know, they don't have records of actually taking a stand and being for freedom of thought and freedom of speech.

So

the other thing that

it is going on is

the Supreme Court now blocking this vaccine mandate.

But Pat, I'd love to hear your thought on this.

Biden is still going after now.

I mean, yesterday Biden said he wants businesses to do it anyway.

And he's the day before, he went after Google and Facebook and Spotify and said, you've got to control this, these lies about COVID.

It's just an attack and an affront on

our way of life, on

the

separation of powers.

I've never seen anything like this, where

multiple times the Supreme Court has blocked

any administration like this, and then the administration continues just to go about their business as if there was no ruling from the Supreme Court.

I mean, this is back to the time of Andrew Jackson.

This is complete lawlessness.

Andrew Jackson and FDR, up until about 38, FDR was doing exactly the same thing.

And, you know, they, you know, is what's crazy is, you know, we've put our book out this week, The Great Reset, which you can order right now.

I have an update on this coming up.

But order it right now, get it on Kindle, read it.

It is really, really important.

Number one best-selling book in the country.

And

when you see the utopian dream of just experts making every decision in your life.

When people catch on to this, when they realize this is not just about COVID, this just isn't about

anything.

It is about education.

It is about sexuality.

It is about movement.

It's about energy.

It's about absolutely everything all the way to the core of your faith.

When people get that,

it's not going to be good because we have fought fascism before.

And

I just don't think that when the average American, and I mean Democrats and independents as well, when they start to really understand what's going on,

they're going to stand up and they're going to push back.

And

it's going to be hard, but we win.

We win in the end.

I hope that's true.

I hope that's true.

I hope it's a step away from despair.

What does that mean?

I don't know.

That means

I haven't seen a lot of people standing up so far.

Have you?

Really?

Really?

Show me who's standing up.

Loudoun County.

Okay.

True.

Loudon County.

The people that stopped the vaccine mandate that was started by a guy, I think, in New Orleans.

He brought the case to the Supreme Court.

I mean, we are starting to stand up.

People who, you know, they just indicted the special or the

prosecutor in Baltimore, wildly corrupt.

George Soros person caused a lot of the problems in Baltimore.

They caught her for income tax evasion and lying on mortgages and everything else.

It looks like she's going up the river.

I mean, there are some signs that things are changing

for the better.

And

just like this happened slowly in the other direction, we really need to spend some time looking at the things that are happening

in our direction because it's going to happen slowly, but then it'll be a snowball.

I don't know if you saw the guy in

what was his name, Stu, the congressman out of Minnesota that two days ago introduced a bill in Congress to stop the Fed from becoming the

only bank in America and digitizing currency.

That's a huge thing.

That's huge.

Yeah,

I don't know the details on that, Bill, but it does seem like there are people who are standing up and doing these things.

It's just a matter of, you know, does this turn into a movement?

Is it something where people, you know, that you have stragglers here and there standing up, or does it turn into something bigger?

But remember, look at what the press is doing to

silence everyone.

The press is not covering any of this.

This is worse than when it was the Tea Party.

The Tea Party at least got negative coverage.

They are blocking any kind of coverage on anything that is happening right now.

So

there are, I would imagine, there are a million things happening in America right now that none of us are aware of.

And quite honestly, you know, that's what Billy Graham told me, too.

It's a giant surprise party for evil.

The Lord is working on things that we are not aware of at all.

And I think if we live

to be able to ask for righteous things,

righteous things will happen.

And there's a lot of people that truly believe and are

standing up because they know it's just the right thing to do.

It might hurt them, but it's the right thing to do.

And that's where we need to focus.

Pat, thanks so much.

Okay.

Okay, so my pillow.

Well, let me just tell you about the Giza Dream Sheets.

They're the best.

They're the best, best, best, best, best.

I am somebody who

am a sheet snob.

I openly admit that.

When I first started to sleep on nice sheets

and then I saw how much they cost, I was a sheet snob that could not live that lifestyle.

It is soft sheets for me make all the difference in the world.

And Giza cotton is the best cotton.

Now Mike has cornered this cotton market and all of his Giza dream sheets are made with this really durable, really breathable, very, very soft cotton.

Best sheets I've ever slept on, and I'm not exaggerating.

I love these sheets.

And now you can get them two for one.

They are,

I mean, really expensive sheets are just that, really expensive.

These are really, these are the same quality as the really expensive, but they're not expensive.

You can get them two for one right now.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It is Friday.

Bill O'Reilly is going to join us here in just a few minutes.

I think we have another COVID expert expert on with us.

Justin Haskins is joining us

and somebody else as well.

It's a packed show today.

Don't miss a second, miss a minute, miss a lot on the Glenn Beck program.

The update on the book,

The Great Reset, I really believe this needs to be a litness test during the midterms and the presidential election.

If you don't understand the Great Reset, you can't go serve in Congress because you'll have no idea what you're you're really battling.

Everything else is going to be bogus.

It's just a front for the Great Reset.

It is the number one best-selling book across the country.

Barnes Noble, Amazon, Costco.

They're trying to get copies of it anywhere.

We have already sold through our first printing.

That's normally not a problem, but because of the supply chain,

it's a real problem.

They told us the second printing would happen in five months, but it is in such demand

that the printing presses have bumped other books so they can get ours on.

It'll start shipping again in February.

You can get the Kindle edition now.

Please order the book so you have it in the pipeline and shipping.

So

we can keep a handle on

how much

quantity that we need because of normally we wouldn't do this, but because of the

horrible situation with the supply chain, we really need information.

So please go and order it, Barnes ⁇ Noble, wherever you buy your books

or Amazon, and we'll ship them as soon as we get them in, which should be in a couple of weeks.

I also urge you to get the Kindle version.

I normally don't do that,

but I think this information, I mean, it is the right time to get the information out.

Please get the hardcover because, you know, that Kindle edition can go away.

I don't suppose it will, but it could go away.

And it's harder to remember things and find things when you're reading things online.

It's always better to read them in paper

just for memory recall.

The other thing is, I am going to go in this weekend.

I've got about a 25-hour recording session to be able to do the book.

I'm going to try to squeeze that in this weekend, or at least a lot of it.

So hopefully an audiobook will be coming out soon as well.

But please do not wait to get this book.

It is, it's vital for our survival that people understand it, and it's going to take you a while to really decode the news.

Once you get it, you're going to start seeing, ah, this is what's really happening.

So, please don't delay.

Order the book, GlensnewBook.com, right now.

Glensnewbook.com and order it and get it right now.

The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of 21st Century Fascism.

This is the Glenn Back Program.

Got no room to compromise.

You gotta stand together, it's the corresponding.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day I've turned around.

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

This is the Glenback program.

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

So that means we're going through the news, top to bottom, the biggest stories of the week, and we begin with Bill O'Reilly in 60 seconds.

Standing up for what you believe in can be challenging at times, but there are also basic things you can do that aren't so challenging.

Things like buying from companies that believe in what you and I both believe in.

We need a parallel economy.

We need to start supporting those companies that support us.

That is the key to all of us.

Right now,

the people at Patriot Mobile are standing in defense of liberty and religious freedom.

They've been doing it since 2012.

They have made a commitment that a good portion of their profits go to

help these causes.

They are a cause-driven company, and normally I don't like that, but these causes are the First Amendment, Second Amendment.

These are things that we are fighting for in defense of life.

And they give you the same kind of great service.

Their cell coverage is on the same cell towers, so you get the same service and coverage, but you also could save up to half the amount of money.

They have much better in-country customer service,

and

they're fighting for you.

What else do you need to know?

Right now, they're having a great free activation sale going on with the offer code Beck.

You'll get free activation.

Switch today, veterans, first responders.

You'll save even more.

So go to patriotmobile.com/slash Beck.

That's patriotmobile.com/slash Beck or call 972 Patriot.

All right.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

Welcome to the program.

The biggest story of the week, sir.

Worst week for Joe Biden in his

entire first first year presidency.

Is this, I mean, because you remember the days of really Jefferson,

is this the worst a president has done in his first year that you can recall?

Well, before I answer that, Beck, I know you're a little bit delirious about the COVID thing.

And are you feeling all right?

Are you okay?

Well, I am.

I'm in an iron lung right now.

And

it's been very bad.

I know the left is rooting that I that I pass on but

it's not happening yet I'm I

bought an old iron lung

you sound okay and I and because this is the eighth time you've had COVID I'm going to give you a pass on the Jefferson

but I have to tell you you know that that Stu is actively undermining you and

tell people okay good I'm trying to try I'm very well aware of that so tell me about these poll numbers and what it means because it doesn't seem like they are any less likely to stop doubling down on things.

Okay, so the Quinn of B.

Eck poll has Joe Biden's job approval rating at 33%.

That is not a reliable poll.

It has never been.

So, you know, we want to be fair here in our analysis of the president.

I don't believe that he's down to 33%.

Here's how I see it.

There's no question that Joe Biden is failing.

Okay?

On Monday on the Nosepin News on billorilly.com, I'm going to have my lead segment exactly what you said.

Is he the worst president in his first year in the history of our republic?

So I'm bringing on a liberal

historian, presidential historian, because I want to see that point of view.

For me, he is.

And I'm pretty good at this history business.

I think you may know that.

I went over every president.

Now, you could make an argument that Herbert Hoover, because he walks in and then the whole economy collapses, but that was set into motion before he got into office.

And it also, his policies, while he didn't do anything

that probably would have been a little bit better than some of the things, but

the Hoover projects started under him.

There were some things that lasted.

He had no leadership skills.

He had no vision.

He was befuddled like Biden is.

And James Buchanan, of course, was a president before Lincoln.

And under him, the South was emboldened to separate.

I have a letter in my historical collection

by Harry Truman saying that if Buchanan had been the same temperament as Andrew Jackson,

that there wouldn't have been a Civil War.

Interesting letter.

But anyway, Biden, there isn't anything you can point to, not one thing.

And if there is, I want your listeners to contact me, bill at billorilly.com, okay, that he's done to improve the nation.

That's the test.

You just step back, take emotion out of it, politics out of it, and say, give me one thing that Joe Biden has done to improve the country.

Just one.

And you can't do it.

And so this week, getting back to your what's the biggest story of the week, he got pummeled on every

time he turns around.

Record inflation, record COVID cases.

No,

his insane legislation about Voting Rights Act, which is unconstitutional, by the way, is not going to happen.

Build back better, not going to happen.

Can't get anything done.

So we're looking at a guy who basically is sitting there and he's got three more years and it's over.

It's over.

It's like the Kansas City Royals.

They're not going to win the pennant this year.

Okay.

So, but he is legislating.

I was just talking to Mike Lee and

Congress is almost irrelevant, but he's just going through with executive orders and they are being overturned, but they do.

Go ahead.

Even those orders are foolish.

They don't get the country anywhere.

They don't move the country.

I mean, I'll remind everybody that it was his executive order a year ago that opened the borders.

Right.

He did it.

He can't blame Congress.

He can't blame Trump.

He can't blame Obama.

He can't blame anybody.

He did it.

And to this day,

we have tens of thousands of people a week crossing that border illegally.

None of them tested for COVID.

Tell me about killing of the.

Does that help the country?

Tell me what your thoughts are on the filibuster being killed.

Did that, I mean, I don't think that ever had a chance.

That never was going to happen because if you do that,

then when the Republicans win the Senate next November, which they will,

they just turn it on you.

They turn it on you.

They revoke everything that you've done.

Yeah, you can veto and all this, but you just tie it into an incredible knot.

You've got to have the ability on controversial legislation to have an overwhelming majority in the Senate, or you don't have a country anymore.

You have a partisan mess.

You have some backstate.

I talked a couple of weeks ago about Hillary Clinton running as the candidate, and it was kind of roundly mocked.

Now, some people are picking this up.

I'd love to hear your analysis on Hillary Clinton.

Is she

do you think she will run?

Do you think the party would back her?

Okay, I broke the story

about

five weeks ago when she came out and cried about something.

Yeah.

She was crying.

Okay, and I said, oh,

there's Hillary crying.

Why would she do that?

Look.

The Clintons, whether you despise them, and I'm sure most of your listeners do, are very, very savvy people.

And even though they don't really, they're not a close couple anymore, they do confer.

And they know that Biden's a disaster.

And they know he's not going to run again.

There's absolutely no way on this planet that Joe Biden runs for reelection as it stands now.

Okay?

Now, maybe through the gift of God, he'll go out and part the Potomac.

I don't know.

I guess it could happen.

But he's befuddled.

He's incompetent.

He's way too old.

And I'm not saying that age-wise.

It's his mental capacity.

And I'm not saying he's senile.

And I'm not going to do that.

That's not fair.

I'm not a doctor.

But he cannot govern this country.

So he's not going to run again.

So Hillary says, hmm, Kamala's out of the box.

She can't do anything.

She's not going to get the nomination.

All right.

So who else is there but me?

The Democrats still like Hillary.

I think that's a fair statement.

So why not me?

But then Hillary gets a

boomerang thrown at her by one Michelle Obama last Sunday, who takes out a completely unnecessary ad in the New York Times costing

the Obama Foundation, Michelle's foundation, about $75,000 to say, hey,

I'm getting back in the political game because I want to register everybody to vote.

And of course, she doesn't.

She just wants to register Democrats to vote.

Okay, so here I am, Michelle Obama.

Hmm, isn't that interesting?

Okay, so Hillary wants to run.

She wants to be president.

So why wouldn't she?

That's how you have to approach all these questions.

Why wouldn't Hillary Clinton try again?

She thinks she won the first time around.

Where have we heard that before?

So anyway, you were astute because I'm sure you didn't see my initial report on Hillary Clinton because you don't watch the no-spin news every night.

No, I don't listen to you even now.

I'm barely listening to you now.

Bill,

so do you think that, I mean, you want to talk about a queen.

Do you think that Michelle Obama would actually run?

I don't know.

But if she does, she walks in.

Nobody will even primary her.

So she can have that nomination if she wants it.

No one will primary Michelle Obama.

No one.

Oh my gosh.

So she's not going to be able to do that.

That's a doomsday device there.

I mean, I think that is something that should be concerning to everyone because

that's concerning.

Look, it depends on what political spectrum you're on, obviously.

Liberals, progressives, and Democrats would love to have her run.

However, once she does run, she's going to open herself up to, you know, the hate fest that America is now.

It's a hate fest.

All right.

This is not like,

okay, the best man or woman wins.

No.

It will destroy you and your family.

It's like organized crime.

It's like killing the mob.

That's what politics is now.

All right.

But we, but we,

but we've already played that game with the Obamas, and they are experts at deflection, especially with the the media.

They would not let the Obamas be destroyed like that.

Like the Clintons,

all right, the Obamas are very, very shrewd.

Now, the corporate media

is going to deify,

word of the day for Stu, look it up real fast, Stu, deify Michelle Obama.

So she'll have the media with her.

But with the media declining drastically in influence and readership and viewership, The internet then rises,

and

she is going to be the subject of an unbelievable personal attack if she runs.

And she knows that.

They know it.

So when Barack Obama first ran, he didn't get attacked very much.

You'll remember that now.

Oh, I know.

It was like, here's this newbie.

He didn't do much in the Senate, but he's an African-American.

And as Joe Biden said, he's a clean guy or something.

Remember that?

What a great

question.

No, we're now debating whether calling somebody articulate is racist when Joe Biden said he was clean,

articulate, and a fairy tale.

Unbelievable.

Right, right.

I mean, but it doesn't matter because Joe Biden's a Democrat.

Now, if Joe Biden had been a Republican, he would have been canceled immediately.

Okay, so with the Michelle Obama scenario, it's fascinating because it could be Trump versus Michelle.

And I mean,

I don't even know how

people would get through that.

Oh, no, my gosh.

Our heads would pop.

Our heads would pop.

It would be.

It's great for you and me because, you know,

everybody will be glued because every day there'll be another mud fest.

You know, the Obamas aren't like Donald Trump.

They're not direct hitters.

They hire their hitters.

Yes.

Okay.

And they'll have them all over the place.

Oh, yeah.

And so we're going to be sitting here going, is this America?

I mean, really?

Well, you can ask that.

Let me go into the break with just a piece of audio from Biden.

This is cut one.

Biden talking about the media.

Listen to this.

If you haven't gotten vaccinated, do it.

Personal choice impacts us all, our hospitals, our countries.

I make a special appeal to social media companies and media outlets.

Please deal with the misinformation and disinformation that's on your shows.

It has to stop.

COVID-19 is one of the most formidable enemies America has ever faced.

We've got to work together, not against each other.

We're America.

We can do this.

It's amazing to me we're America, so please shut down all debate all voices that disagree with the government.

Makes no sense.

Back with Bill O'Reilly here in just a second.

Our sponsor, this half hour, is Relief Factor.

Our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made, really are.

They have, I mean, I've just, I've marveled at how my body is getting through COVID and how this whole thing is working.

It's an amazing system.

But as we get older, we start to wear wear down and you do things that shouldn't cause pain, that do cause pain.

Relief Factor.

Relief Factor was created by doctors to help your body reduce the inflammation.

That's the major source for most of our pain.

And quite honestly, inflammation is a source of most of our problems in our body.

Your body is fighting the effects of aging, exercise, everyday living.

Help it out with Relief Factor.

It has changed my life.

I take it three times a day.

I got my life back.

I was in crippling pain.

If you feel like you can have a better life, please just try this for three weeks.

$19.95, it's a dollar a day.

It's a trial pack.

Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor, and about 70% of them, it works for them.

They go on to order more.

ReliefFactor.com, 800, the number four, relief.

ReliefFactor.com, 800, the number four, relief.

Feel the difference.

10 seconds, station ID.

I want to ask you about something else that is seemingly getting pushback, Bill O'Reilly, from the left.

Do we have, I think it was from yesterday, Cut One, Biden and the voting bill opponents,

and what he said about the opponents and Jefferson Davis.

History has never been kind to those who've sided with voter suppression over voters' rights.

And it would be even less kind for those who side with election subversion.

So I ask every elected official in America,

how do you want to be remembered?

At consequential moments in history, they present a choice.

Do you want to be the side on the side of Dr.

King or George Wallace?

Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor?

Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?

That is quite a remarkable thing, especially coming from a group of people that say that Martin Luther King was wrong.

Overplaying his hand,

is that an accurate statement, Bill?

Well, I have inside information that Biden thought Jefferson Davis was part of the Jefferson airplane.

That he thought it was part of a crew.

Yeah, probably.

Biden doesn't, Beck, you know this.

He doesn't know what he's saying.

He doesn't know what he says.

Well, nobody does.

They're writing it for him.

They're writing it.

They're writing it for him because he's got a bunch of progressive loons

in the speechwriting office.

And

they believe this.

They believe that if you require an ID

to vote for the president of the United States, you're suppressing the vote.

I don't believe they believe it.

I think they might have convinced themselves, but

Zach, you have to come back to New York.

You have to go into a bar in the Upper West Side and talk to these people.

Well, thank you.

I'll leave that to others.

Rand Paul and Fauci

had a go-around.

This is not looking well for Fauci.

Wait a minute.

Are we away from Bull O'Connor?

And is that gone now?

Yes.

I got one more thing to say about that.

All right, go ahead.

One more thing.

This is just part of what we see every day in this country from the progressive left and Joe Biden, because he is that now.

Everything they want, if you oppose it, you're a racist.

Everything.

You could reject Oreos

at

dinner for dessert and you're a racist.

But you don't like the black cookie?

You know, I mean, it's insane.

So they're going to pull that racial card out on every single issue.

Think it's overplayed.

I think it's overplayed.

Overplayed.

They're overplaying their hand on absolutely everything.

Let's switch to Fauci.

Fauci is clearly covering.

He is clearly involved in some really bad things and lying to the American people and Congress.

How's this going to work out for him?

Well, give me an example of what he's lying about first.

The lab leak and covering all of that up, all of the stuff that was happening with Randolph.

Wuhan, you're talking about?

Yeah.

You're talking about Wuhan?

Okay.

Yeah.

So that's an excellent question.

Fauci does what he's told to do.

He's a propaganda talking head.

He was told by Trump and told by Biden not to pin it on the Chinese.

Wow.

Bill O'Reilly from billorilly.com.

Make sure you see his no spin zone every day.

BillO'Reilly.com.

Back in a minute.

The Glenn Back program.

So I'm a reasonable guy,

I think.

I mean, I have my limits on certain things.

I'm perfectly willing to eat healthy food as long as it doesn't taste like healthy food.

You know, I think that's perfectly reasonable.

If you can show me a workout that looks like sitting on the couch and watching TV, I think that's perfectly reasonable.

I will do that.

Built bars are healthy.

They're protein bars.

At least that's what they claim to be.

But I eat them because they're really good snacks.

I mean, I do have standards to uphold.

People are saying, I posted a picture of where I'm broadcasting from.

It's my garage, my man cave, and there's a stove in my garage.

And people are like, you have a kitchen in your garage.

And I'm like, I have a kitchen in every room of my house, man.

I like food.

Anyway,

right now, you can get Built Bars, and they will help you keep your diet going.

I will tell you, I've lost 15 pounds in the last two weeks, and I feel great other than this, you know, leprosy in my lungs.

Best-selling author and Mr.

Health.

Glenn Beck has a new book out.

The great reset.

Get it at glensnewbook.com.

I believe we have Matt Ridley joining us here in just a little while.

Matt Ridley is

going to give us an update on COVID and what's really happening.

You know, the Washington Post has just written an op-ed that says it's time to make life a living hell for anti-vaxxers.

This is so un-American.

And by the way, I'm not anti-vaccine.

Almost took it myself.

My doctor said not to because I had a really bad case of it.

And he said, let's just watch it and see.

I had COVID before there was a vaccine, so I wasn't holding out on the vaccine and got COVID.

And I just got it recently.

And it has, despite what you're reading, I'm not on death's door.

It came from a conversation Mark Levin and I were having where it was going into my lungs, and that's always concerning, but I told him on the air, that's not concerning to me.

I'm not worried about this.

I'm doing everything I have to, and I've worked every day through it.

But you have people right now going absolutely out of their mind, out of their mind.

The Daily Beast, let me just give you some of these things.

Daily Beast.

Glenn Beck, I'm a fatty, fat, fat so.

So it's probably not the best thing.

And I have some other issues.

The tweets that follow.

Glenn Beck is a millionaire who could have gotten the vaccine for free, but instead got COVID twice with all the complications that come with it entering his lungs.

I have no sympathy.

Okay, first of all, I would have gladly paid for the vaccine had I want

vaccine, had my doctor recommended getting the vaccine.

I'm sorry.

My doctor is not Dr.

Fauci.

I don't have a problem with people getting the vaccine.

And all of the complications that come with it, I haven't been to the hospital.

I haven't been a drain on

our hospital system by any stretch of the imagination.

I've been at home both times.

So, where are all the complications?

I'm not on a ventilator.

Raise your hand if you would never trust a vaccine pushed by bleach injection, snake oil, salesmen, and conmen.

This is what this guy

wrote a year ago, but he seems to forget that.

Amy Siskine, she said,

activist, feminist, author, Glenn Beck has COVID again after refusing to get vaccinated and said it's going into my lungs, but not to worry, he's treating himself with ivermectin.

I'm not treating myself.

My doctor is treating me.

In fact, two doctors are treating me.

And I'm paying for those doctors.

And I'm paying for the medicine.

And if I choose to use ivermectin, what difference is it to you?

I don't see anyone talking about

Chris Cuomo, who was like having bath salts with aliens being prescribed

for him for his COVID, which he never, ever stayed away or did anything that he was supposed to do.

Nobody said anything about him.

If you want to take bath salts and you think your chiropractor can solve this, I don't agree with you, but that's your business, man.

They are getting so nasty right now.

So nasty.

I hope Glenn Beck's supporters see that he's a complete moron and get vaccinated.

Have you, Stu, have you ever asked anyone who had the vaccine and the booster shots and they got COVID?

Have you said to them, ha ha ha, how's that working out for you?

No, because only a terrible person would do such a thing.

That's not, that's not a, both sides of this, but there are people who do that, by the way, and you should stop.

It's dumb.

It's dumb.

You don't cheer for people to get sick.

I can't stand Alexandria Casio-Cortez and her policies, but when I heard she had COVID, I wasn't like, yay.

That's just a terrible way for a human being to react about another human being.

Absolutely horrible.

It's just not what you do.

So, no,

I don't think anybody should react like that.

And I'm seeing it all over the place.

I'm seeing it, you know, Business Insider has an article up and it says, Glenbeck says he caught COVID-19 again and it's getting into my lungs, with this quote kind of, you know,

sort of totally out of context.

So insane.

I said to, I said, the next sentence was, but I'm not worried about it.

I'm doing everything I'm supposed to be doing.

I'm not worried about it.

They have made this into,

I'm on a ventilator.

It's crazy.

Yeah, it's not.

I mean, you've been, you've had a bad cold and you've done the show every day this week.

You've been painting.

You've been doing nonstop promotion for your book, which I would note is number one on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kindle.

It is,

you know, you've been, you're sick.

You're normal sick.

You're normal guy sick.

That used to be a thing.

People get sick.

They sometimes push through it.

Sometimes they're out of commission for a few days.

It's not that big of a deal.

And, you know, they mentioned that you are taking the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin, as well as hydroxychloroquine and fluvoxamine.

The drugs, which have been championed by anti-vaccine activists and skeptics, have not been approved, have not been proved effective against COVID-19.

What I find fascinating about that, I know there's been a lot of stuff about iverbectin and hydroxychloroquine, and that's been very much in the media, but fluvoxamine.

The first time I read about the benefits of fluvoxamine was from Vox, the liberal website who went through the clinical trials and saw real benefits of fluvoxamine in fighting COVID.

This is not some crazy treatment.

And the idea that you're treating yourself with this implied idea that, oh, well, it's probably just some horse dewormer.

No, it's not.

The horse dewormer by itself will do nothing.

It requires the zinc.

The ivermectin is just the delivery system.

It is the gun for the bullet of zinc.

That's what it is.

They're not explaining any of this.

They're just badmouthing everything and saying that you're, you know, I'm doing it on my own.

I wouldn't know what to do.

By the way, I can't prescribe drugs for myself.

I'm also on steroids, a massive amount of steroids, which has also helped.

They act as if you have the vaccine or take an aspirin and we'll see you in the hospital.

Right.

It's insane.

There are things that you have to do.

There are treatments, too.

I mean, I know you mentioned in one of your posts,

you know, monoclotal antibodies.

Now,

I think that's mainly used for people who are in more serious risk positions than you.

I haven't fully looked into that.

No, would you be a good candidate for it?

I would have been nine days ago.

I don't think I am now.

No, yeah, I think it's.

If you get it at

the very start,

it's a really good treatment.

Tanya and my daughter just came down with it yesterday.

Oh, both got

and they've had it before, but they had both had very light cases that lasted just

about a day, I think is what it lasted for them.

And so they're going in for some Regeneron today.

I couldn't get it last week.

Otherwise, I would have gotten it.

But I have lots of friends who've had this and had vaccines, but went in for Regeneron and say they walk out two hours later feeling great.

Is there any reason, though, this stuff gets so culturally divided among groups?

I don't understand it.

Like, we just, if you don't like the vaccine and you like ivermectin, there's no reason to talk trash about the vaccine.

Let the people who want to

use the vaccine use it.

The same thing goes the opposite way.

No, no one can seem to do this for themselves anymore.

You are missing the point.

The real problem here, Stu, is the Pepsi drinkers.

The Pepsi drinkers have been wrong their whole life.

They're anti-American.

They don't understand the basic chemicals that need to go into your body.

How dare you?

And you're Coca-Cola.

You are the ones that are right.

Oh, really?

You want to start every single coca-cola drinker is the same.

This is really it.

This is.

And there's no reason for it.

There's no reason for it.

Like you don't have, if you don't want to take some other treatment, then don't take it.

Now, there is a difference between that conversation and the one that goes on with mandates because that is, there is a real difference there.

If you're trying to force people to take the vaccine or force people to take fluvoxamine, whatever it is, you should.

Here's the craziest part of this, Stu, is you and I both know,

you know, we're not scientists.

Well, I'm a doctor, but we're not scientists, so we're not the guys to go to, but we have talked to enough scientists on both sides.

We're both very well informed on this, and we both know the trend is going towards a cold, basically what I have.

If this was just the common cold and I didn't have COVID, if it hadn't been diagnosed as COVID, I would have thought I just had a bad cold.

That's all it is.

And

that's what it is tracking towards.

This is a good thing.

This is what we have been waiting for, for it to mutate into something much less deadly and just become like a cold.

And everyone is doubling down.

Everyone is now saying, I mean, the Washington Post article, it's time to make life miserable for those who won't get the COVID vaccine.

Yeah.

Are you crazy?

Look, there's two things here that I think are important.

One is we are still in the middle of this.

It's not a cold for everybody.

And so, yeah, a lot of people.

No, but it is trending that way.

We think so, right?

We don't know.

We don't know at the end of the day.

Everything seems to be a surprise with this thing.

So I don't know.

I'm not counting any chickens, but you're right.

This is a positive move if people can get natural immunity and have colds.

The raw numbers of this at this point are going to come with some really bad results.

I mean,

the number one cause of death in America is cancer and heart disease.

It's about 1,700, 1,800 people a day die of it.

That's about the level we're at right now with COVID deaths.

You know, the flu is 100 deaths a day, right?

It seems like there's a big difference there.

We're probably going to go above 1,800 here in the next couple of weeks.

And that's really...

because that is again because everyone is getting it.

Right.

And it's just really widely.

So for an individual, it is less for each individual, but it's just spreading so widely so fast.

You can't compare the heart disease and cancer because not everyone's going to have heart disease and cancer.

When this burns itself through and

it becomes more stable, it's got to run through

all of the hosts and it's going to run through all of us.

You know, it hasn't even started in China yet.

Do you know that?

Yeah, well, they found their first case recently.

They've been going from zero COVID and locking down their populations.

Uh, in

really, and it's still doing all that stuff, and it's not going to work, it's not going to work.

I don't think it can work.

Um, and and it's going to run through the entire population, and once it does, then we'll look at those numbers and say, okay,

now once you've had this version of it, how many people are going to, it's not going to just keep being this pandemic where everybody gets it.

This is exactly the way it happened in 1918 through 1920, exactly the same way.

And when you had somebody in the family said they have the flu, people freaked out.

They thought that was a death sentence.

By 1922, that was over.

And I think that's over.

We're on.

I mean, I think, you know, places like Texas are already there, right?

I mean, I think this is happening.

Oh, yeah.

But the other part I just wanted to make quickly is how dumb the focus is on the whatever it it is, 10% of the population that does not want to get the vaccine or is against it.

We're at the point where 85.5% of adults, 85.5% of adults, not are considering the vaccine or pro-vaccine, but have had it already.

So you're talking about this insane psychopathic focus on the 14% of adults that have not decided on their own to get this.

And at the same time, I will guarantee you, 12%,

if not all 14%,

will have the antibodies

in the next month because they're already sick.

Or have already had them.

So all this focus on this small percentage of the population that is just making a different choice and you should just respect their choice.

But let's just say, Glenn, for example, we...

We instituted some crazy Biden vaccine.

It went through.

Everyone went along with it.

And we had 100% vaccination rates in this country.

What has broken up a lot of the transmission issues with the vaccine?

Omicron.

Omicron was first discovered in Botswana.

We have no control of the vaccine policies of Botswana.

They're at like 22%.

We have an entire globe where these things, there are billions of people who don't even have access to the vaccine if they wanted it.

You have a situation where 8.8% of low-income countries are vaccinated right now.

8.8%.

So these variants that can mess all of this up can come from anywhere.

You better understand how to focus on your principles and your foundations of freedom and understand how to do your best with the virus, but also live with it.

Because

even if these vaccines were completely perfect, the difference between what we had two months ago and what we have now is something that we had absolutely no control over.

No control whatsoever.

It's a pointless focus.

And Glenn, it has nothing to do with the virus.

It has to do with culture and a way to distract from how poorly this presidency is going and also to blame red staters that they don't like.

And they want to blame the red staters for ruining the country so they can have some level of defense heading into an election where they are going to get obliterated unless they figure out some secret key to get out of this.

I will tell you that it is, I mean, the Rosetta Stone we've been talking to you about all week, it is the great reset.

It has everything to do with power and control, period.

Power and control.

It's the great reset.

By the way, you can get the book.

Our sponsor this half hour is Rough Greens.

Lori wrote in, she said, I have very picky pugs, but actually they lick the bottom of their bowls bowls clean for the very first time when we gave them rough greens.

They have been very active ever since.

They seem extremely happy.

Thank you, rough greens.

I will tell you that

Uno is more than a picky eater.

He licks his bowl clean now because of rough greens.

This is not a dog food.

This is a supplement that you put on your dog's food, and it gives them all of the things like probiotics and,

well, maybe there's some ivermectin in it.

I'm not sure.

They give them all the things that your dog needs and that you need.

When you're feeding your dog sterilized food, they don't get any of the stuff, the enzymes, and everything else that they need to digest that food.

Rough greens, it's a supplement you sprinkle on the food, and right now they want to make sure your dog loves it as much as they think.

So they are so confident they're sending you a free bag of rough greens just for your dog to try out.

You just pay for shipping.

Go to roughgreens.com/slash Beck.

That's R-U-F-F greens.com/slash Beck.

They'll give away the first bag free, pay for shipping, then feed it to your dog.

If they love it, just keep feeding them.

By the way, you know, I have not mentioned our new theme.

It's all original music by Sam Cardin and Nick Daly.

And I think they've just outdone themselves this year.

And I just wanted to point out.

what a great team I work with.

Let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins books.

I've been talking to you about the great reset lately.

We've covered some of what that means and how it's going to affect you.

Some of the things that

I want to impress on you is this is going to be a battle

that is fought house to house, community to community, child to child, parents.

This is not going to be something that you're going to get these big corporations just to stop doing.

We have a very long battle ahead of us, and we have to teach our children

the true principles.

There is a lack of principle education in our country.

Just the lack of do the right thing because it is the right thing.

Things are not real anymore.

Everything is up for grabs and that's got to stop.

We are going to return to real principles at some point.

The only way to save ourselves is to do that.

And the Tuttle Twins books are the books I think that are really great to prepare your children and your grandchildren for the life that they're going to be living my uh my kids ask me all the time dad what is it what does this mean what is this going to look like for our lives and the lives of our children um i don't know exactly um you know i and i hesitate to tell them because i don't want to scare the living pants off of them um but you know you're old enough You do need the living daylight scared out of you because that's what we're facing.

You need to prepare your children with facts and equip them with principles.

Matt Ridley is coming up in just a second.

We have Justin Haskins joining us one more time this week.

He's the co-author of the number one best-selling book, The Great Reset.

You can find this at GlensnewBook.com, GlensnewBook.com.

I'm hopefully going to try to

record the audiobook today.

I urge you to get this in paper copy.

It is so important that you have a copy of this.

And if you can't afford it, more than one copy, you need to keep a copy with you.

It is the primer.

It's the only book of its kind in the world that is talking about the great reset.

And this should be, if you have friends anywhere in the world,

Australia, the United Kingdom, Europe, anywhere in the world, you need to call them and say, get this book.

They don't have anything like this.

And we're all going through the same thing.

Justin is with us.

Justin, thank you so much for your hard work on all of the research and everything for this book um and uh and for being in studio with me uh all week to answer questions um what have we missed this week on the great reset yeah so i mean this topic is so gigantic which is why people really do need the book more than a year's worth of research went into that there's hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of footnotes and sources and things we could talk about one of the things i think that we have not hit particularly hard is the role not just of banks but of the federal reserve and central banks specifically.

They are driving much of this agenda right now, and they're going to drive it even harder into the future.

And they're actually going to force in a top-down way most banks that rely on them in any capacity to go along with much of this great reset stuff.

Just this.

Hang on just a second.

Let me just give you some context.

I remember getting a call from a guy who was at the top of one of the big banks,

one of the biggest banks in the world.

It was the weekend that they started talking about TARP.

Nobody had known about it.

It was a Sunday night.

He called me.

He said, he lived in New York.

He said, I've just walked home.

And he said, I cried almost all the way home.

Now, this is a very reasonable guy, a big businessman.

And he said, people don't know what's coming.

And

he told me the story that when they got in with the Treasury and the Fed, the Fed brought in all of the banks into the basement of the Fed, the Federal Reserve in New York,

one Sunday night, had them all there, and his bank said, we don't want the bailout.

And they said, you're all taking the bailout.

No one is leaving here without participating in this.

We are all doing it.

And they forced these banks into TARP.

And that kind of stuff is coming again.

They've already done it once.

The Fed will

force every bank to be involved.

Yeah, that's exactly right.

And many of the people who are in the leadership at the Fed, Jerome Powell, Leo Brenner, these people were in the Obama administration or were involved in the Fed back when TARP happened, back in the early quantitative easing.

They were involved in all of that stuff.

So they're very familiar with how all, with these strategies, with how these things work.

Just this past week, uh the jerome powell at the the head of the fed came out and said that they're going to roll out climate change stress tests on banks and what that means effectively is they're going to go to the banks and they're going to start the fed is they're going to go to the banks and they're going to start saying to them okay Are you prepared for a climate change crisis?

Do you have policies in place that make sure that you're not lending to people that are worsening that crisis?

Do you have, and what they mean by that is essentially ESG scores.

Do you have an ESG system in place making sure that these, all the people you're doing business with are going along with our green agenda, are going along with the green new deal and things like that.

That's going to become the reality for these banks and everyone who does business with the banks too.

And it all comes from the Fed.

So it's not just is Bank of America green.

It's is everyone that's doing business with Bank of America also going green?

So you're not going to be able to get a bank account with these people in the future because of the Fed.

That's going to be our reality.

So I think what people don't understand, and this is why it's so critical that you read the book and then you start logically thinking it through, because it's not about control on the top end.

It is about unconstitutional controls on the top end that affect the everyday person.

And so when you say, well, a climate stress test, what they're saying is, is that the globe is going to go green.

And so all of the money is going to be pouring into these green new deals and solar panels and everything else.

So if you're going to give a loan as a bank to somebody who is building a refinery or are drilling,

when that thing falls apart, that becomes a very risky deal.

And so they're going to say to the bank, you can't make those risky deals because that's not the future.

That's like giving loans to the Fisher Carriage Company instead of General Motors.

So give it to General Motors.

And they're going to force them to do this.

And as Justin just said,

if the bank doesn't give the loan to industries that they have picked and choose through the government and through,

you know, the World Economic Forum and all of these other things,

if the bank won't give them money, There is no parallel.

You cannot do business.

They also are in on this that if you are an oil company and you're like, I don't need your loan.

I don't want any of your money.

If you are another company that has a loan from a bank and you make some sort of oil widget, but that's not even your main business.

It's just an oil widget.

That oil widget will now count against you.

And so the bank will say, you're doing business with this company by making these oil widgets.

You have to stop selling them or we cut off your funding.

That's right.

All the way down the line to your house.

You can't buy that house.

You're buying that house.

Does it have solar panels on it?

Does it have this or that?

That's too great of a risk.

You speak out against social justice.

You speak out against global warming.

You are a risk to the bank.

That's right.

That's exactly right.

You're not going to be able to buy, even if you could find someone who is selling a gasoline-powered car in 10 years, even if you could find someone who's allowed to sell those, you're not going to be able to get a loan from a lender to buy that car.

You're going to have to have cash to buy that car, and you probably won't even have cash in 10 years because they're trying to phase that out.

That's the whole point.

Every aspect of your life is going to change because these institutions are going to make it impossible for you to live your life the way you're living it now

through this

approach, through the financial system, primarily, but secondarily, by the financial system putting pressure on corporations, they're going to phase out all of these other products and services and things as well.

So, you're gonna wake up one day in 10 years.

If you don't read this book, you don't understand what's going on with the Great Reset, you're gonna wake up in 10 years, or five years, or whatever.

The world is going to be totally different, and you're not going to have any idea why.

You're not able to buy the things you used to be able to buy, you're not able to go the place, say the things you used to be able to say.

None of it's going to make any sense to you, and it's because this great reset framework behind the scenes has been working this entire time to reshape the economy, to reshape society through the financial system, through corporations.

And our world is going to change whether you understand it or not.

The only chance we have of stopping it is for people to understand it.

And then we have to change our behavior to try to make this thing, stop this thing in its tracks.

If people don't understand it, this train is going to keep going.

It's not going to fix itself.

So you got to educate yourself about these issues and really know it.

I I know the Fed is not a sexy topic, but it needs to become a sexy topic.

You need to know this stuff.

Yeah, it is the time for

the time for frivolous talk and frivolous action and Pepsi versus Coke is truly over.

You know, Justin, I'd like to talk to you about another book.

It'll probably take us another year to do the research on this, but

the metaverse,

the AI situation, I mean, I know a lot of the leading futurists in the world, and I read this stuff all the time.

And the one thing we don't have in this book is

the effect.

This is really being caused by a few things.

One, greed.

China is the new model.

People can get rich, and if they're doing crony capitalism, like in China, it's a great system for some.

It sucks for most everybody else.

But you also have the industrial revolution, this new AI industrial revolution that is going to take place between now and 2030.

And by 2030, 40% of all jobs that we know of now will be gone.

So it is going to change our society fundamentally.

The other driving factor in this is the fact that when they bailed these banks out, we all knew at the time, you can't do that.

But they were desperate.

They did what they had to do, violate the free market to save the free market.

I don't think a lot of it, I think most of it at that time was not nefarious.

But they have since then, because everything that I've been telling you for the last 15 years about the banking system is true.

They have denied it the entire time.

We have never come into a recovery for our financial system.

We are still paying the Piper for all of this.

And so they know, and so they're coming up with a system to protect it.

And they don't care about protecting anything else other than the financial system.

So you can take all nefarious things out and say, why would these people do this?

Because they know what they've done has destroyed everything.

Plus, technology is now rising.

We're entering a new world, but they're devising it without you and without your knowledge.

And it makes you into a literal slave

having to do what they tell you to do.

The book is The Great Reset.

You can get it at Glenn's new book right now.

Get a copy, read it, share it with as many friends as you can.

This has to be the litmus test for the midterm elections because we need fighters in there that understand it.

The Glenn'snewBook.com.

back with more in a second.

And your phone call.

I want to tell you about on 9-11, we had about 3,000 people that were killed in a terrorist attack here on American soil.

Yeah, sure, it wasn't as bad as January 6th.

I'll tell you that right now.

But there was a group of people that decided to change things.

And I love this group because they changed their life and they have...

dedicated their life

to living the promise that I think all of us kind of made on September 11th.

When a first responder or a military service member doesn't come home and the children are left behind, and this is happening to our police officers, the way we can really help is by partnering with Tunnel to Towers.

They pay off the mortgage to lift all of the financial burdens off of

these families and bring some stability.

Anybody who is catastrophically injured, who's a veteran or a first responder, they build mortgage-free smart homes,

enabling the real severe cases of our heroes to live independent lives.

They bring light where there is darkness, and I can't endorse these people highly enough.

I love their work, and you can help at $11 a month.

$11 a month, t2t.org.

T, the number two T dot org.

It's tunnel to towers.

Help them in their mission of making people's lives better and thanking our

most valiant warriors at home and abroad.

Let me go to Samantha in Texas.

Hello, Samantha.

Hi.

Hi, how are you?

I'm good.

How are you?

Good.

I wanted to ask,

do you think the great reset is biblical?

You know, everybody has been saying this since, you know, right after Christ died, you know, that he's coming soon, et cetera, et cetera.

I will tell you, this checks many of the boxes.

I don't even know.

Justin,

are you a religious guy?

I am a religious guy.

Yeah.

I mean, I don't think anyone knows the time or the place, Glenn.

Yeah, I don't either.

But

I do think

this makes a lot of the stuff that we thought would never be possible absolutely possible.

Yeah, without a doubt.

So it is a, whether it's biblical or not,

I personally believe.

And I'm not talking about the people involved in it.

I'm talking about the attitude.

I do believe it is evil because it's about controlling and taking people's free will away from them.

And that's why we were sent here, to have our own free will.

And so I think this is, quite honestly, a plan that Satan would have hatched.

You know, I'll bring them all home.

They'll all be fine.

They just have to do exactly what I tell them to do.

So it's biblical in that sense.

And several, I think, several prophecies will come true because of where this is headed.

Thank you for your phone call

on that.

So

next week, Justin, I'd like to continue our conversations and also be able to have,

I think we should put together something on our website, on my website,

so you can follow the news of the day because it's coming fast and furious.

And every day there's at least one major story that is breaking.

Yeah, without

you seeing any movement in

the political realm in Congress, anybody starting to wake up on this?

Every time I talk to one of them, they're always like, you know, I've heard about it.

I don't really know.

It's not a priority, not in Congress.

I mean, there are some people who

have proposed, Republicans in particular, rules, financial rules, things like that, that would make it harder for banks to discriminate against certain kinds of industries like oil and gas.

But they don't see the big picture.

They don't really see the big picture.

I think states, I think there are some states that actually have started to kind of pick up on how important some of this stuff is.

But do they understand in Washington what's going on?

No, they don't.

And unless people start putting pressure on them to understand it, they're not going to.

They're going to continue living in that universe where it's left versus right.

It's, you know, the cable news, talking heads, screaming at each other.

It's the same thing every single day.

It never changes.

And they never focus on the stories that are really the most important stories.

It's really important.

I spoke to about 400 state legislators about a month and a half ago, and I talked to them about this.

And many of them had some inkling of it.

They had seen things that worried them, but nobody had tied them up.

If you are in the state, forget about Washington.

We've got to save our local communities.

Getting on a zoning board is paramount, just paramount.

These people are zoning things in for Agenda 2030 right now, and it's everywhere.

I mean, it's here in Texas.

It is everywhere.

You've got to get involved locally

because that's where you're going to make your biggest impact.

Please grab the book, GlensnewBook.com, GlensnewBook.com, all about the great reset.

Back with Matt Ridley in a minute.

The Glenn Back Program.

So, I have some great news for you.

If you're looking to sell your house or buy a new house, whether it's across the street or across the nation, it could be a real hassle.

I mean, things are changing so rapidly, the price of houses, et cetera, et cetera, you don't want to get behind the eight ball.

We have Matt Ridley on the phone with us.

He's the co-author of Viral, The Search for the Origin of COVID-19.

There is a big story that came out this week.

Exposed emails from Fauci and the gang seem to be just a blip in the news cycle this week, but it is important that we don't move on.

We have to search for the origin of COVID-19.

And

I wanted to get Matt Ridley on to talk about what was discovered in these emails.

What does it tell us and why are they important?

Hi, Matt.

Ben, good good afternoon.

Nice to talk to you.

Good morning, I should say.

Thank you.

Yeah, well, you're in the UK.

So good evening.

Good afternoon.

So, Matt,

tell me what new came out this week.

I don't know if you saw the Fauci hearings,

but

I mean,

we had this information a few months ago, but now it is being confirmed

and doesn't look good for Fauci.

Am I reading that right?

Well, we knew for we've known for a long time that there was a meeting in early February, which Fauci attended, so did Francis Collins, so did Sir Jeremy Farrer of the Wellcome Trust, who was actually the person who asked for the meeting, and a bunch of other senior virologists on the phone on Saturday, the 1st of February,

in which they discussed the widespread concerns among...

virologists at the time that it looked like this new virus was the product of manipulation in a laboratory, or at least it had mutated in the laboratory, that they couldn't explain how it came about in nature.

We've known just the outlines of that, but when we sought the emails about that meeting that followed that meeting, we got totally redacted documents, you know, with everything blacked out.

And that was a little

intriguing

to say the least.

Now, some of the Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have been allowed a sight of the unredacted emails and have transcribed some of the key paragraphs.

And

they are even more startling than we expected, because what they show is that

Dr.

Fauci, Dr.

Collins, and other senior advisors to the government in both the UK and the US were briefed very clearly

by virologists that at the time they thought there was a very good chance this had come out of a laboratory.

They couldn't explain one feature in particular of its genome by any other way,

and that they thought that theory should be taken very seriously.

And yet, the outcome of that meeting was to commission an article for Nature Medicine magazine, and another couple of articles came out shortly after that, too, one of which had Farrer on as a co-author,

which basically rubbished that idea and said, no, it couldn't have come from a lab.

And there was no evidence for that.

And it was a conspiracy theory and everybody should shut up about it.

So what changed in the couple of days after that meeting to

take these people from thinking it was a very strong possibility to thinking it was a nutty conspiracy theory that could be ruled out?

And not only to show, is that what changed is politics.

It wasn't scientific evidence that changed their minds.

It was the impact this might have on the reputation of science in general and science in China in particular.

That's a question.

What do you have on that that shows that directly?

Well, there's an email from Ron Faucier, who is a Dutch scientist who was involved in this experience,

who says we can't agree to this because it would have an impact on

we must rule out this possibility because it would have a significant impact on science in general and Chinese science in particular.

We have a remark from Francis Collins in one of the emails saying this might damage international harmony if we indulge in this speculation.

It's a strange choice of words.

It's the sort of words that the Chinese regime uses actually a lot.

So

it's pretty clear, and

then finally there's an email in April in which Francis Collins basically says to

Dr.

Fauci,

yes, this article did come out, but it didn't shut down the debate as much as I'd hoped.

There are still people speculating about a lab leak.

That's a pity because it's not helpful to the reputation of science.

The background of this, of course, remember, is that Donald Trump has said this virus comes from China around the same time.

And a lot of these scientists

are very strongly opposed to him and are horrified by the thought that some of this information might

give him some vindication.

So I think

the problem here is scientists saying one thing in public, thinking a completely different thing in private, and their reason for doing so being political, not scientific.

Matt, have you ever read The Gods of the Copybook Headings by

Rudyard Kipling?

I have, but a very long time ago.

Yeah.

Well,

I think of that poem almost every day because it talks about when society goes this far off the rails and the, you know, the last line is, you know, the gods of the copybook headings,

you know, with terror and slaughter return.

You will eventually,

depending on how far you go, you will have to come back to truth.

And the more you fight it, the worse it becomes, and the worse the fight back to the truth is.

Science and medicine has got to start their fight back right now, or

they are completely discrediting themselves right now by not being 100% transparent.

We can't survive with a medical industry and hierarchy that is involved in lies, blackmail,

you know, payoffs, and politics.

It's bad for all of humanity.

Well, yeah, I probably wouldn't go as far as to use some of those words, but I agree with the point you're making, and I do so as somebody who's very pro-science.

I've defended and championed science all my career.

I've written about the wonderful achievements of scientists.

I think it's humankind's greatest achievement, Barnes,

discovery

of how the world works.

But

it is getting very difficult to defend the way science is behaving as an institution on some of these matters.

And if science is to retain its reputation, it's got to own up and say, look, in the name of science, some people have been doing dangerous experiments.

That's a mistake, whether it led to this pandemic or not.

Certainly didn't help predict it as it was supposed to.

And if science were to look at itself and say, sorry, guys, we we got a few things wrong here.

We got a lot right.

We've developed vaccines and so on.

But actually, we may have started this pandemic.

We're really, really sorry.

Let's make sure it never happens again.

They would get a lot of credit.

Instead of assuming that, they're saying, no, no, no, we don't want you to talk about this.

We don't want you to think this.

We can rule it out.

It's a conspiracy theory.

It's nutty.

And I'm afraid that means that...

that when this does come out to be the case, which it may well do, can't be sure about that, but we may well find out that this did start in a lab, that it may drag a lot more of science down with it than it should.

Yep.

So, Matt, I don't know if you're qualified to tell me this, but

I take the latest news of this pandemic becoming an endemic as good news.

This is what really kind of happened in the 1918 flu.

Bad the first year, worse the second year.

Then then it starts to peter out and we just end up with a flu.

Omicron seems to have a death rate lowered by 91%.

And we're still in the throes of everyone getting it, so it's still bad.

But I take this as the possible beginning of the end of this nightmare.

Would you agree or not?

I completely agree with you.

I've been saying this for a number of weeks.

And when I started saying, hang on, I think this is the milder version of the virus, I had

some of the sort of medical establishment saying there's no such thing as a mild version of the virus.

It only depends on how much

our immune system reacts to it.

And respiratory viruses don't evolve towards mildness.

I'm sorry, then how do you explain the fact there are 200 kinds of common cold and none of them kill us?

You know, et cetera.

So I think this is exactly what we've been waiting for.

A mild version displacing a nastier version.

version, the virus becoming endemic, becoming a seasonal, not completely harmless and still capable of killing people

infection.

And I think that's what happened, for example, with the other four coronaviruses that we catch all the time.

They cause the common cold or versions of it.

They're not the commonest cause of the common cold, but they're one of the causes, and they do not kill us.

And they started as nasty pandemics that probably did kill us.

is there any case to be made for,

you know, Fauci has even come out and said everybody's going to get this.

So why the big push now again on quarantine and everything else?

Isn't this kind of what we were hoping to happen?

I mean, I don't want anyone to die.

So do everything you can so that they don't die.

But this is the end of that isolation thing.

The people in Antarctica, in the labs there, have Omicron.

So everyone's going to get it.

Exactly.

Well, the UK, which hasn't always got it right in this area and has been far too draconian and

authoritarian in the way it's handled this health crisis, in my view,

nonetheless did take a decision back in July that it would open up society again.

And we were predicted to have hundreds of thousands of deaths as a result by the modelers.

That didn't happen.

That has meant that we've had an earlier and bigger Omicron wave than other countries.

That has largely displaced our Delta wave.

That has meant that we've now got, yes, we're still getting 100,000 new cases a day, but our death rate is knocking along in the low hundreds

and has not got anything like as bad as it did last winter.

It looks like we in the UK are going to be out of this

pandemic quicker and earlier than other European countries

compared to the U.S.

And so

that tells us that the right decision was to open up society and stop these lockdowns back in the summer.

Scotland wouldn't follow suit and it's having a slightly worse time now.

Matt Ridley, God bless you.

Thank you, sir, for all of your hard work.

Thank you for defending science and just speaking the truth as you understand it.

God bless you.

Gods of the Coffeebook headings.

I'm off to read it right now.

Yeah, good.

It'll blow your mind if you haven't read it for a while.

All right, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins books.

Okay, Goldline.

I want to talk to you about Goldline.

Yeah, you can pay with the Tuttle Twins books with gold.

I'm pretty sure they now accept gold.

Really?

Yeah, you can check it out.

Read that book.

I'm thinking about maybe taking gold as a payment as well.

But anyway,

Goldline knows what's coming.

And as you will see in the gods of the copybook headings, if you would look that up today,

what that whole thing is, is when the world goes mad and it goes through periods of absolute madness, when it does, everything,

you know, wishes become horses and pigs have wings.

And everybody denies the truth.

Eventually, that gets down to all of basic mathematics and gold and silver and what has value and what doesn't.

And the end of the poem is, well, but then it just burns itself out because none of it is true, and the entire thing collapses, and the gods of the copybook headings limp up to explain it once more.

All that glitters is not gold, and two and two do equal four.

That's what Goldline understands.

That's what I understand.

I buy it against a hedge of insanity and for the real reset that will come

when we gain our faculties again.

Call Goldline now.

They have all kinds of specials going on.

They are giving away this week free silver with the purchase of Indian head coins.

These are the ones that I buy.

Check it out.

Find out all the details.

But please find out if this is right for your family.

You need to spread out your risk because trouble is coming.

It's Goldline, 1866 Goldline, 1866 Goldline or Goldline.com.

The Glenn Back Program.

Someday.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Thank you so much for listening this week.

I can't tell you how overwhelmed I am by the response towards the new book.

We

honestly,

it was the hardest book for us to write and research because we were figuring it out as we went.

We questioned it every step of the way and then wondered if anyone would be interested in this topic.

And the overwhelming response literally cannot keep it in stores and cannot keep it in stock.

It is the best-selling book, the fastest-selling book I've ever written.

And I've written 2 million sellers.

And it's overwhelming.

And that just

shows our connection.

We think alike.

We know something isn't right.

We don't necessarily know what it is, but we want to know the answer.

And there's a lot of people in America now that, quite honestly, they don't want to look at it.

They're afraid, they're tired, or whatever.

And it's going to take 20% of the population that will fix this.

And it is fixable.

In the book, book.

And Justin, we have to talk about this a little bit more.

In the book, there are real solutions.

And

they're not bogus solutions.

It's not just go out and vote.

They are real things that the average person can do that will make a difference, but people may dismiss them because

they'll seem small and this is such a huge problem.

But that's the lie.

Yeah, that is the lie.

The biggest challenge to the great reset, really, is people believing in this lie that there's nothing that they can do.

I'm not going to do anything.

It's too big for me.

I'm just going to keep living my life the way I've always lived it.

I'm not going to change.

You have to change.

That's how they win.

They are literally banking.

The elites are banking on all of us being too lazy and too cheap to do anything about this problem.

But if we take it on ourselves and make the changes in our own lives, we actually can stop the great reset.

Look, why are they trying to silence voices?

Because they want you to feel powerless and alone.

That should tell you everything you need to know about fighting this.

All we have to do is set our mind towards doing what we know is right.

The eyes of the world are upon us now.

God bless.

Have a safe weekend.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Mike and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

They called it truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

Whatever.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.
