What do I need to tell you?

Here's what.

Soros, his firm is coming out and saying, you know, there's something to this Bitcoin thing.

It's probably too big to ignore.

Wait a minute.

Isn't that how he collapses economies?

He gets it all set up on the brink and then he says, you know what?

Maybe everybody should get out of the dollar and go to this currency.

I'm telling you,

getting a loan is going to be very, very hard.

Your credit card rates are going to go up big time.

Get out of those.

Get a consolidation loan.

Oh,

we got a great show out of it.

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Now, as most people know, I'm not good at making predictions.

Can't really see over the horizon ever on anything.

But I'm going to make one.

I'm going to make one.

Last night, the GOP, and in particular, 11 senators,

have just started a new tea party.

Yeah, that's right.

I just think what they did last night was a betrayal of everything that we hope and believe in.

You know, some of us still think a few things are self-evident.

You know, like math.

You know,

I can add numbers up and know when it doesn't work.

And I also know how to count to 11.

It's just one number below the dirty dozen.

You remember the saboteurs?

Yeah, yeah,

yeah.

That blew everything up.

Yeah, 11 is just one senator shy of the dirty dozen.

We begin there in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck program.

Did you hear Joe Biden yesterday?

He indicated that

he, well, he didn't pressure them.

He wasn't calling.

He had a friend that went to the hospital, and the hospital was overrun with COVID patients.

And he got a call from the wife or the husband, and they're like, Joe,

Joe,

he's in the hospital, and it's so overcrowded.

We can't do anything.

Oh, Joe.

And then Joe's like,

And he called the hospital and he talked to the triage nurse and the hospital and said, hey,

I've got a friend who's there in your waiting room and can't get any service and I'm just checking on him.

Can you give me any information?

Oh my gosh.

Oh, now see, that's the kind of fairness we were looking for.

You know, that's the kind of thing that I think the average person loves

about politicians, you know, when they can just call and use their power to save their friends while you don't have any power.

You know, the president's not calling about you.

And I think the fact that he was so open and willing to share that

just speaks volumes, you know.

So I was in CVS the other day and I was in massive pain.

And

my wife called the president, and she's like, Oh, Joe, Joe, he can't get any heroin.

It's CBS, and it'll only be heroin that will help him.

And Joe's like,

they think they're giving that to me.

I'll call CBS.

And CBS said,

We don't stock heroin.

And so I had to go home and just stick with my relief factor.

Yeah, that's the best we can do for the little people because they won't let us have heroin.

You know, the nice thing about relief factor, except for on days like today when I'd really

like some heroin, you know, let me tell you something.

If I wasn't an alcoholic today, I'd be an alcoholic today.

You know what I'm saying?

Relief factor is not a drug.

It doesn't make you into

pudding.

It doesn't make you feel like that.

No, in fact, it just takes the pain away.

Mental pain excluded.

Call them now if you'd like to get out of pain or what the hell, have your friend in the White House call.

Maybe they can get a shipment faster.

No, uh-uh.

800-500-8384, 800-500-8384.

ReliefFactor.com.

hmm it's friday ho ho ho it's friday

and uh it's gonna be a good friday i have uh

i have uh homecoming for my two children happening today i have uh a navy seals fundraiser which we've been waiting for about two years

I have a board meeting, another charity event, and a wedding to go to all today.

So it's going to be great.

Sounds like fun.

Sounds like a good day.

And then I get up and I, you know, I have a few senator friends who were burning up

my

text last night and just say,

hello, hello.

Hello.

I think we just sold our country out.

I think we have 11 people that have just sold the country out.

No, they didn't.

No, they, you know what happened?

Is they felt that if they didn't,

if they didn't raise the debt ceiling, something that the Democrats could have done on their own, okay?

They didn't need to have any Republican help them.

They could have done it on their own, but they didn't want to, okay, because they don't want to handle the gun.

They would much rather say, boy, that person needs to be killed over there.

Wow.

But I can't do it.

But you know,

you know how many people would save?

You know, honestly, Mitch McConnell, do you know how many people it would save if you'd just pick up the gun and shoot that person?

We'd be your friends forever.

We love you so much.

It would be the spirit of compromise.

We'd be able to team up and do all kinds of things.

And the next time, the next time you want something,

well, we promise.

We're not going to give it to you.

What is wrong with these people of the GOP?

I predict they have just started a new tea party because I, for one,

I was at a fundraiser last night for a local guy who is running for county judge, which is like county executive.

And he's the guy who,

you know, really raised the funds for the people that were standing up against the school board that put two school board members in jail.

He's the guy who had a spine.

And I was just saying last night,

I won't do anything for the GOP.

This guy happens to be a Republican.

I don't give a flying crap.

I want to see not what you say.

I want to see what you do.

And this guy had a long track record of doing the right thing.

And then as I'm there, they're selling our country out.

And I have to tell you, there are a few things that I still hold self-evident.

That all men are created equal, which means I'm not going to take another single day from a single person in any school district that I have anything to do with.

I will not for another day, I will not stand quietly by

if you are teaching my children that some people are more equal than others.

That you're teaching my children that Martin Luther King was wrong.

That you're teaching my children that somehow or another they or anyone else are guilty of sins that were committed by people they don't know nor were related to.

No,

not another day.

I hold the truth self-evident that all men are created equal.

And that you have a right to life.

So not another day am I going to say, gee, I don't know.

We should give Fauci some more money to do some more testing on dead babies.

Do you know that's how they did it?

You know, they were testing the coronavirus vaccines with dead baby tissue.

Oh, yeah.

Well, abortion is important.

Not another day.

Liberty.

Not another day.

Not another

day.

Will I stand by while you are checking people's bank accounts, a violation of the Fourth Amendment?

While you are putting people in solitary confinement for a misdemeanor?

I think that one violates the

Fifth Amendment and the Sixth Amendment.

No.

No.

I will stand by anybody who is a Democrat or a Republican that actually honors their oath.

And I don't see very many people doing it.

I know 11 people are trying to make themselves sleep well by saying, we saved the country.

No, you didn't.

No, you didn't.

First of all,

if they want to go on the debt ceiling and say, it's going to destroy America,

really?

We're not going to pay our debts?

I mean, I know you guys don't read the Constitution, but the Constitution says that takes priority over everything else.

So they would have had to cut a few things.

Oh, no.

Cut a few things?

Oh, shoot.

Oh.

I got a few things to cut.

How about the Department of Education?

What the hell?

How about the Department of Interior?

At this point, I'm pretty damn close to saying, how about the Pentagon?

Is there anybody?

Is there anybody

on

the Democratic side

that sees what is happening to our country and has an ounce of testosterone.

Weak men create hard times.

What have we done to our men?

Weak men create hard times.

And we wonder why we're having a problem.

Because

we got Sally's and Nancy's up there.

Oh, sure,

they might identify as someone with a spine.

They might identify as someone who is a defender and protector.

But sorry, I don't think you are.

You can put the dress back on.

These people are not willing to stand for the things that we have pledged to each other are self-evident.

They will not stand.

Well, where are the people?

And I know, I'm talking to you.

I'm talking to you.

I know you don't want to run.

I know you don't think you have time to go to the school board meetings.

I know you think your voice doesn't matter.

That's by design.

I want to elect the people who don't want to go.

I want to elect the people who think politics is despicable.

I want to elect people who think it's nothing but a game and they despise it.

I want to find good and honorable people that aren't coveting power and money.

I want people with children

and grandchildren, but I don't necessarily want the ones that are still walking around with great-great-grandchildren.

We are run by a group of people that have pudding at 4 o'clock in the afternoon at the early bird special at Denny's.

There is nothing wrong.

I think...

The older you get, the more wise you are, the more experiences you have, the more we should ask and listen to our elders.

But there's a point that we all have to say, they don't get it.

They don't get it at all.

They're living in 1967.

And all these damn hippies

who have been set to destroy our country since 1967

have all the power now.

And they don't have a clue as to what the hell they're even talking about.

I got to get on one of them Twitter machines.

I'm so upset at that Facebook.

I was reading that Facebook last night.

I got up to page 157.

Here's the good news.

There are so many up-and-coming patriots.

I said in 2009 or 10 when we were in Washington together, if you happen to be there, somewhere, somewhere in this crowd is the next George Washington.

Somewhere in the crowd is the next Martin Luther King,

the next Thomas Jefferson,

Abraham Lincoln.

They're not giant statues yet,

but someday we may be building statues of their likeness.

They're probably eight years old today.

Well, that makes them twenty

today.

And they are out there.

They are there.

And they're already engaged.

They're smarter than most of us were.

They're more engaged than most of us were.

They feel it passionately.

They were selected to be here at this time by a God who knew that weak men

would destroy freedom.

Gosh, he's awfully sexist.

Weak men create hard times.

Hard times create

strong men.

Strong men create good times.

Stand up.

Remember who you are.

Recognize what time it is.

And be who you were born to be,

not who we've all allowed ourselves to become.

Holidays are about gratitude and generosity, and Blinds.com is grateful for the millions of customers that have made their trusted source for custom window treatments, which is why they've decided that they're going to kick the holidays off with

the week-long friends and family sale, up to 40% off site-wide.

I'm sorry, I'm so distracted right now.

As I'm reading this, I'm thinking, yeah, they didn't build this.

They didn't build this.

Government built this.

We were the ones that built the internet.

Oh, shut up.

It's entrepreneurs like blinds.com that was just a family-run business.

That's what it was.

And one of them back in the 90s said to the other, we should do this online.

Online?

Do you remember what online was like in the 90s?

And they battled it out and they found a way to become successful and now they're the largest in the world.

Oh, you gotta get them.

Oh,

those rich people that

don't do anything.

They just

didn't create that.

Anyway, they're having their friends and family sale up to 40% off site-wide.

I've used blinds.com several times.

They're great.

100% guaranteed perfect fit.

You know why?

Because they did build this.

So they knew they had to make it better than anything you can get in person.

And now that the world is caught up with online shopping,

they're way ahead of everybody else.

Blinds.com.

Go there now 40% off site-wide during their friends and family sale.

Blinds.com up to 40% off.

Rules and restrictions may apply.

10 seconds station ID.

Oh, you know what?

Old Elizabeth Warren said, you know, this debt ceiling is like

a live hand grenade.

And it's being used by extremists.

And we got to stop.

I think we should just eliminate the debt ceiling altogether.

Oh,

it's like it is sort of pointless in a way because they don't pay attention to it.

No, it's just a speed bump.

It's just a reminder to everyone what a terrible job they're doing every two years, which is why they hate it.

Correct.

And now it's actually every two months this time.

Yeah, this time it's only taking us to what, December?

It's coming to December, and you think $480 billion.

Okay, well, it gets us to the end of the year.

No, it gets us to early December.

Only early December, $480 billion of debt.

Now, look, the typical way this works is the party in power has to suck it up and get the vote done while the other party gets to run ads against them in the next campaign.

That's like the trade-off normally.

And it's a kind of a silly game, but still, it's a game that has pretty well-defined rules.

Here,

they've just, for whatever reason, the Republicans are like, well, you know what?

We'll just go along with you on this one.

Well, only

Mitch McConnell and his clan could could uh just snatch victory oh no sorry no he usually snatches defeat out of the jaws of victory i mean

it's it was going to be raised and i was there let them let them do it yeah yeah let them do it and they said well they're they were going to get rid of the filibuster let them try

Let them try.

The only thing that would defend him on this is if they think they can hold Joe Manchin against these Bills

as a true, there's a backroom trade-off.

Yeah, I agree with that.

He's gonna, he's gonna.

I don't think so either, but I think that might be the theory here, maybe.

That's the only thing I can come up with, though.

I mean, I have to speculate to come up with any reason why they would do this.

No, they would like to keep their status in the new corporate America.

I think that's what it is.

The public-private corporate America.

They want their share.

This is the the Glenback program.

By the way, wait until you see what Merrick Garland's family has been up to.

We're going to talk about that coming up in just a second.

Rough greens.

Jason writes in.

He says, my dogs will actually push my hand away when I mix rough greens in their food bowls, just so they can start chomping down.

This is, Uno has done this.

He's like, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, put it down.

He said their fur is shiny.

They have lots of energy.

I definitely recommend rough greens to anyone with dogs.

Thank you so much.

Jason, thank you.

Thanks for writing in.

It is really helpful and satisfying to me to see when people actually, because they ask me all the time, do you really believe in this?

Yes.

Otherwise, I wouldn't do it.

I canceled a contract with General Motors because I didn't believe in them.

Yes, I only take clients that I believe in.

Rough greens.

Try it with your dog.

Get a free bag right now.

Just pay for shipping.

See if your dog loves it as much as Uno does or Jason's dogs do.

If so, watch the difference, start feeding, putting rough greens on their meal.

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

I want to bring in a real

patriot, Azra Nomani.

She is the Vice President for Strategy and Investigations at Parents Defending Education, where she is the editor of the Indoctrination database and FOIA work.

She's also the

co-founder of Coalition for TJ, a group of parents and community members in Virginia.

She's a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal, co-director of the Pearl Project, and co-founder of the Muslim Reform Movement.

This woman has been fighting the good fight for a very long time.

Yesterday, she

came out with a story that is so important.

As our FBI and the Department of Justice, under Merrick Garland, are coming out and

looking for the terrorists that are the parents.

She, her group, got a tip that Merrick Garland might have a conflict of interest.

And she is with us now to explain.

Ezra, welcome to the program.

Ezra, are you there?

Hear me?

Yes, I can hear you.

Okay, great, great, great.

Yeah, thank you.

Thank you for your kind words, too.

But I was so looking forward to talking to you because you're an investigator.

So you know how to follow the money.

And

I knew that you would get this story, and you would understand how important it is.

Oh, yeah.

Okay, so let's go through.

Yes.

His daughter, Merrick Garland's daughter, is married to, what's his name?

Tanner.

No, I know.

I'm going to make you go through this.

I know.

I'm going to make you go through this.

This is just another example of how ridiculous it is.

His actual name is

Alexander, but he goes by Zam

because that's what every nickname is for Alexander, right?

Oh, yeah, sure.

So his daughter is named Rebecca Garland, and the daughter grew up in

the comfortable life of her dad and mom and went to Yale.

And then at Yale, she reconnected with an old childhood acquaintance, Zan, and they got married.

And it should have just ended there as a happy

love story.

Yes.

Right.

New York Times, wedding announcement, the whole thing.

And what's in the first paragraph?

Of course that her father, Merrick Garland, attended.

And then a few paragraphs later,

Sam

was a co-founder of a company called Panorama Education.

Panorama Education, that sounds epic.

What do they do?

Yeah, it sounds so tame, right?

It's just they pick the perfect perfect disguise.

It's a perfect Trojan horse.

So let me just fast forward to the fact that we now have venture capitalists investing in Panorama Education.

So it must be hot.

And one of those investors is a man by the name of Mark Zuckerberg.

Wow.

Yeah, why would Mark Zuckerberg be interested in this education company based in Boston by a couple Yale graduates?

Because it is a data mining company.

And what Panorama Education does is they use these fancy words called social and emotional learning.

So just think about that like combination of words, so bizarre, social and emotional learning.

What does that mean?

Well, when my kid was small,

it was just like learn to have critical thinking and have character and be nice to others.

Now they are using it as an excuse to mess with kids' heads.

And some of the questions in these quote screeners, that's what they're calling their surveys, are things like, are you gender fluid?

What's your position on race?

Are you happy or are you sad?

Literally,

parents are not even aware about these questions.

Okay, so here's the thing.

If you listen to Megan Kelly, she kind of talked about this, but she didn't know necessarily what it was.

But

her child came back home and said, I'm asked if I still feel like I'm a boy, and they do it every week.

Exactly.

It's from one company or the other.

It is an industry.

So Panorama Education is just the tip of the iceberg in this multi-million dollar industry.

And let's be clear about what they are.

They're government contractors.

You know, they're not just an education company.

They're not just like, oh, we're here for child welfare.

They are government contractors.

And so Merritt Garland's son-in-law is profiting off the backs of our country's children.

And we're not talking little contracts, millions of dollars.

Yeah, let me give some facts here.

Fairfax County Public Schools signed quietly a $1.8 million contract with Panorama Education

for their screening, where they ask the students

questions of whether they feel sad or gender fluid, et cetera, et cetera.

The Panorama Education Staff gets status now as school officials, so they have a right to the private student data under federal law.

Yeah, just

people need to just absorb what you just said.

I mean, it's so dramatic.

Contractors are getting status as school officials equal to teachers or principal, school board members, and they are basically

data scientists or even data nothings you know but just absorbing this information about kids and Glenn this is the breaking news headline for you because I know you love breaking news

1.8 million dollars was this agreement in June nobody even knew about it they started having board meetings and they just mentioned oh we got COVID money okay over the summer and guess what we're going to spend it on this screener so there was this vigilant mom who heard just this mention in a school board meeting, and she asked them, what is the screener?

So, that's how she got the information about the $1.8 million contract.

And then she called us at Parents Defending Education and gave us the tip.

But guess what?

They then quietly signed another agreement, an addendum in September, raising the number to $2.4 million.

Jeez.

That's one school district.

One school district.

So now.

And that happened in early September, and then within a month,

I went to the school board, and I protested the wastage of this money.

And days later, the school board association, you know, summons the FBI.

I'm not saying it was because of me, but I know that they know that parents' eyes are on these contracts.

And then we got this edict from Merrick Garland to shut us up.

So

here's what I want you to know.

The federal government is data mining our children.

They are asking that,

they themselves are allowing contractors funded by Zuckerberg

and Merritt Garland's son and daughter, son-in-law and daughter.

It's their company.

They're going into our school districts in the cover of night with the school board.

They are getting this information.

They are are deeming the people who are processing this information as school officials so they can have access to all of this and share it with third parties without parental notification or consent.

Yeah, and so then what happened is that we raised questions about it, and then they

suddenly

announced, oh, there's going to be an opt-out form that parents can sign, but it wasn't available for days.

It wasn't even clear who do you send it to.

And then, guess what?

Parents started filling it out and they then started getting emails literally asking, did you make a quote mistake?

Are you sure you wanted to opt out?

As if these parents made a mistake.

And by the way, the opt-out date, the final date is today, right?

Glenn, can you believe that you know the opt-out day for a school district in Northern Virginia?

Because that's how important it is.

And you know the details matter.

Yeah.

And I also know if people start looking into their own school board, you're going to find, you're going to find, are there any other

companies

besides Panorama Education that people should be looking for?

Oh my gosh, this is so fantastic.

So one other little nugget I want to just share with you and your listeners is that

Fairfax County Public Schools, we have discovered, also shared information on all of the students before a single opt-out form was even presented to parents.

Cool.

Yeah.

So they got the student name, the student ID number, their class, and their school.

And everybody needs to remember that this child, the market of children, as any parent knows, they spend a lot of money.

We spend a lot of money on them.

So this is a big market that companies want to understand.

So, let me tell you: so, what happened is that this eagle-eye mom also submitted a FOIA to find out who were the other bidders, because this one, of all things,

we actually had other bidders.

And I'm going to name some of the companies.

They weren't bidders in Fairfax County, but there's a company called Castle, C-A-S-C-L.

They are huge in this business.

C-A-S-C-E-L.

C-A-S-E-L.

E-L.

Castle.

Okay.

Yeah, Castle is a big company.

Then

we have another company that they're all such

strange names that you kind of start forgetting what they are.

But then New York University has a company.

And

it's their education department.

So you just have to look up if there's a contract with New York University.

And then we have this other company that is culturally responsive.

And they do, you know, so they make it all sound so good.

So culturally responsive is the name of the company?

Yeah, exactly.

Okay, and I'm going to get you a whole list.

Okay, please do.

And I will tweet it out today.

If you're in the Fairfax County School District, your opt-out date ends today.

You better

get on the stick if this is the first time that you've heard about this.

This is,

once again, our kids being sold for power and money.

And, you know, don't mess with my kids, man.

Don't mess with my kids.

And this is the

kindest thing I could say is Merrick Garland, just this really brilliant guy that should have been on the Supreme Court, just didn't see the conflict of interest,

you know, about saying we're going to go after these parents who are standing up against these things with the FBI when his daughter and son-in-law are making millions of dollars data mining the children in the very counties that he's saying we're going to have to send the FBI into.

It's

sickening.

Yeah, what we've done now is yesterday we sent a letter to Senate Commerce Committee to ask for a hearing on this very important issue of big tech data mining our kids.

And I hope everybody will support us.

Like write a letter to your senator or representative.

Because this matters because these surveys are then used,

I hope everybody understands, as a way to make an excuse to get programs of indoctrination into the schools.

Oh, our kids are sad, so we need to have some uplifting anti-racism training.

You know, that's how they get their programs in.

It's a Trojan horse.

Ezra, thank you so much.

Thank you very much, Glenn.

Thank you.

All right.

Man, it's going to be a long day today, but I get to go home and slip in between my Giza dream sheets.

Yeah.

You doing that tonight, Stu?

That's the way to do it.

Yeah, sure.

My wife's friend is trying to convince us that, oh, no, you got to sleep on linen.

Like, why don't we just sleep in a burlap, you know, sleeping bag?

How dare you?

Oh, my God.

How dare you demean Glenn's thread count?

Right.

Right.

You were a sheet snob because I was a sheet snob.

There's nothing wrong with being a sheet snob.

No, there is not.

And it's pricey.

But not if you find the Giza Dream sheets.

And these are honestly the softest sheets I've ever slept on.

And I'm a sheet snob, okay?

Don't make me say that several times on the air because we might get in trouble.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to the program.

It is Friday.

I have a review of the new James Bond movie.

Oh, that's out this weekend.

Finally.

Saw it last night.

Was it May 2020?

It was supposed to come out?

Worth the wait.

Really?

Worth the wait.

And I had high expectations, and it met them.

You will love the new James Bond movie.

Really?

Yeah.

Best one, I think.

Out of his.

Because you'll see things you've never seen before, and I'm going to leave it at that.

Okay.

Another thing.

Let's go, Brandon.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Brandon.

Let's go, Brandon.

We're wearing the new Let's Go Brandon t-shirts, which I don't know.

I really appreciate the people that are translating this into something else.

I don't know what they mean.

I don't know what they mean either, but

I don't like the fact that we're doing that.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

By the way, you can get the t-shirt at shop.blazemedia.com if you'd like to chant along with us.

And I do, I want you to know I enjoy it, but I don't enjoy it when my kids are around.

Yeah, I will say this.

I've kept two young kids

several times.

This chant has broken out.

We've seen it on bumper stickers and signs

and not Let's Go Brandon, but the full

unedited version.

Yeah, right.

And while I certainly agree

with the

feeling, the motivation behind it,

I will say I'm not in love with, you know, because

you go to a sporting event and they're chanting this all the time.

And like when you take your kid to a sporting event, you know, some drunk idiot is going to be swearing and God only knows what else.

But now even the good people in the crowd are swearing all the time and making it into the wave.

It's like, can you please?

I really like the Let's Go Brandon.

Let's go Brandon.

Let's go Brandon.

You can get the t-shirt at shop.the blaze shop.blazemedia.com well see that's

that's what you're here for isn't it i somebody has to be here to get you to say the right things popblazemedia.com yeah that's

by the way those uh those dots they're period then there's none dog no

Now let me talk to you about the covenant.

The covenant is a multi-season TV series adaptation of the stories of the Old Testament, written by a guy who's going to write it accurately and right and just captivating stuff.

Andrew Clavin, he's one of the best screenwriters.

And they need investors.

If you would like to change the world, we've got to change the culture.

And the covenant is one of those things.

And you can be the impact investor in a broken world.

Just go to k-otv.com/slash back.

They'll give give you all the information.

C-A-Y-O-TV.com slash Beck.

K-O-T-V.com slash Beck.

The name of the series is The Covenant.

It's going to be done right, but they need your support as an investor.

If you're looking for something to invest in the future, invest in God.

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

I said last hour that I think 11 senators of the GOP might have just started the next tea party.

A massive betrayal and sellout of the GOP again.

Just snatching

defeat out of the jaws of victory.

They do it again.

Love to hear Bill O'Reilly's opinion on that and whatever he deems is the biggest story of the week.

We talk to Bill O'Reilly next because it's Friday.

The Glenn Beck program.

Let me tell you about Life Lock.

You know, it'd be easy to give up and just assume that cyber criminals are going to win in the long run.

Maybe just save them the trouble.

Mail in the credit cards, whatever cash you have in your wallet.

Hey, sign the title over to them.

Either that or actually protect yourself with Life Lock.

It's actually less work than mailing all the cyber criminals.

LifeLock will detect a wide range of identity threats and they will send you an alert.

Plus, they have a dedicated team of restoration specialists if you become a victim.

It's the only company that I know.

These are the people that started this category, I believe.

They've been in it now for 30 years.

When everybody's like,

internet, what is that?

They were already doing this stuff.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly from BillO'Reilly.com, where you can grab his no-spin news every day.

Nothing has changed, just the device.

I mean, you're not watching it on cable TV,

but you're watching the same show that he's always done, and it is just as entertaining and just as smart.

Bill Bill O'Reilly, welcome to the program.

Bec, I need your help.

I need your help.

All right.

And that hurts me.

It hurts me to say it.

Okay.

So I'm interviewing Donald Trump next week.

And I want to do a different kind of interview.

I don't want to have him venting about the election and all of that.

Okay.

Yeah.

So I'm asking you, and I hope we can do this in the last three or four minutes of our interview today, for suggested questions.

All right.

Let's take that towards the end of the show, the

bottom of the hour.

Okay.

Bill.

Yes.

The 11 senators that saved America last night, the 11 GOP senators,

people like Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, others, all said,

are you out of your mind?

What are you doing?

They were bluffing.

What do you think?

Well, they they let the Democrats have a little safety shoot.

But a lot of this stuff is not apparent to you or me or any other American.

There's backroom dealing, and Mitch McConnell is the biggest backroom dealer, I think, probably in U.S.

history.

Yeah, that's the problem.

Right.

So we don't know what the deal was with Mitch and the other 11.

Right.

The deal might have been, you give us this extension, and we'll bring down the 3.5 trillion to 2 or 1.8 or something like that.

No, that's not a deal I want.

That's not a deal.

Well, that's fine, but I don't know if your precedent is really taken into account by Mitch McConnell.

No, I know that.

But I mean, he should listen to the GOP.

They are, I'm sorry, the voters, not the GOP.

The voters are done with this, and they don't want to aid and abet

this transformation of our country.

That's true.

That's true.

But the deal that McConnell is making, he's thinking four or five steps out.

Yeah, I am too.

Yeah, I know.

I'm not saying, I'm not sticking for the turtle.

Oh, yeah, you know,

I'm going to take it all out on you today.

Yeah, you can take it out of me.

That's all right.

I'm not sticking up for the turtle.

I'm just telling you something that isn't reported or analyzed.

There are deals that are made.

Okay, so tell me the deal.

Tell me what selling your country out would be worth.

Okay, look, look, Beck, Beck, the big picture is this.

These Democrats and the Biden administration want to turn the United States into a quasi-socialist state where the economy is run by the government.

Everybody knows that.

Yes.

Okay?

Right.

And all 80 million Americans who voted for Biden are partially responsible for that.

Yes.

They're going to fail, but they could fail very quickly if, in the midterms of 2022, there is an overwhelming landslide for the Republican Party.

Okay?

That's the only mechanism that stops the madness.

Okay, O'Reilly, O'Reilly, O'Reilly.

Wait a minute.

Just a second.

You're right about that.

Of course.

Unfortunately, in that $3.5 trillion bill are all kinds of infrastructure pieces.

Do you remember those?

They're not going to get

true.

Yes, they are.

No, they aren't.

Yes, they are.

You remember the song by Johnny Cash, One Piece at a Time?

Okay.

Where he was building a Cadillac.

He was working at GM, and he decided instead of buying a Cadillac because he could never afford it, he was going to steal it and take it out in his lunchbox one piece at a time.

Took him like 40 years, but he finally got a Cadillac that was a hideous monster.

That's exactly what's happening here.

Every bill they pass, every bill they pass has another piece of the great reset.

That's right.

And you're absolutely correct.

And I'm not arguing with you about that.

I am saying once again, when you have 80 million Americans casting a vote for a man like Joe Biden, and they were warned by you and me and

most astute commentators that you have to, you will suffer the consequences.

And we are.

But after every mistake, there is a remedy.

And the remedy is next year.

You're not going to stop the Biden administration from wasting trillions of dollars on equity, climate change, or whatever other nutty thing they come up with.

There's no mechanism to stop it because the Republicans Republicans don't control either side of the house.

And Manchin and Cinema, who are saving the country, the two Democrats who won't vote for the 3.5 trillion, they're under unbelievable pressure.

And if the Republicans don't compromise a bit, they'll fold.

They'll fold.

And Biden will get the whole thing.

So now what Mitch Boy is doing is saying to Manchin and Cinema, you know, we're not unreasonable.

We will compromise a little bit.

So you just hang in and we'll get this thing done in a responsible way.

Of course, it isn't responsible.

You know, we have now a government wasting, literally wasting trillions of American taxpayer dollars.

And that's not responsible, but it's never going to stop until the American people wise up.

Right.

And that's why they should vote John Barasso in Wyoming out, Roy Blunt, Missouri, Shelly Moore Capito from West Virginia.

Susan Collins.

John Cornyn from Texas.

You're dead to me, John.

Mitch McConnell, Kentucky.

Lisa Murkowski in Alaska.

Hang on, hang on.

Rob Portman in Ohio.

Mike Rounds.

Richard Shelby

in Alabama.

And Senator John Thune.

Those were the 11.

All of the 11 that voted for an extension of the debt ceiling.

You want out.

I wish there was one more so I could technically call them the dirty dozen that were the saboteurs, but I can't remember that's one shot.

Jack, calm down now.

Stu, just

do you have a wet cloth you can dab his forehead?

We can work on that.

Okay.

Now, I did some research today because you always ask me on Fridays, what is the most important story of the week?

Yes.

Okay?

So I have something that no one knows about that is vitally important, and I'd like to tell you about it.

All right, go ahead.

All right.

The most important story in the United States this week is a quiz on billo riley.com.

The quiz is called, Does it make sense?

And there are 10 questions to the quiz, and I'm going to give it to you and Stu right now.

It's a yes or no answer.

That's it.

This is the quiz.

Are you ready to take it?

Ready.

First question, does it make sense to allow millions of foreign nationals to enter the USA unsupervised?

No.

No.

Okay.

All right.

Question number two.

Does it make sense to abandon Afghanistan completely, leading to human rights abuses by the Taliban?

No.

No.

Three.

Does it make sense to shut down the Keystone pipeline just to turn around and ask Saudi Arabia to expand their oil sales?

No.

No.

Okay, three no's.

Fourth question, does it make sense to support critical race theory teaching in schools that divides children on a skin color basis?

No.

Question number five.

For the federal government, does it make sense to spend so much money that inflation explodes?

No.

Does that make sense?

It does not.

Question number six, to support,

does it make sense to support no bail laws?

that allow criminals to commit more crimes?

No.

No.

Okay.

Question number seven, does it make sense to be one of only seven countries in the entire world that allow unrestricted abortions?

No.

Does that make sense?

No.

Okay.

Question number eight.

Does it make sense to oppose voter IDs?

No.

All right.

Nine.

Does it make sense to say that white supremacists are a larger terror threat than jihadists?

Does that make sense?

No.

And the final question is, does it make sense for a president of the United States to accuse his own country of systemic racism?

No.

Does it it make sense?

No.

Okay.

So you guys scored 100% on the quiz.

You guys are going to move on.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Now,

wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Okay.

Every one of those questions has been endorsed by President Obama.

Right.

Well, probably Obama too.

Yes.

But Biden.

He's really running.

Every one of them.

Yes.

And if you just see it in black and white, if you go to billorilly.com, it's in black and white and download it and send it to your liberal friends, the Biden people.

Does any of this make sense?

Ten questions.

Simple man, simple questions.

Okay.

Once you see it, it becomes devastating.

It becomes devastating that we have a president who is out of control and hurting the nation in every single area.

So, now, does it make sense?

I've got a question for you.

Yes.

Does it make sense

that

those

powerful 10 statements

all came together out of incompetence

or senility?

No, no,

this is by design.

All of those

things are by design.

No, I don't mean that.

No, I mean that the things that they're doing is by design.

This is not a coincidence.

It's not just a horrible accident that all of those things are happening.

The only one that isn't by design is the Afghanistan withdrawal.

I don't think the progressives

said

we're going to go in there and we're going to botch the withdrawal from Afghanistan so Biden will look terrible.

That doesn't make any sense.

What they did was say, we are going to do things that will separate America from her allies, show American military what they really are.

And we're going to ignore the military experts.

Damn the consequences.

Correct.

Yeah, but

I disagree with you guys.

I don't think that was policy going in.

I think that was just

rank incompetence on the part of Biden.

Yeah, I think so.

I think he did not listen to his military experts and pushed through all of their recommendations of common sense because he was getting

pressure from the Susan Rice's of the world

to get out of

the progressive hero.

But all the other nine are absolutely what the progressive left wants, and we have this befuddled president who does everything they want.

I mean, that's the frightening situation.

So he's got to be neutralized by the Republicans.

And I don't believe they are the best guys and gals in the world.

And just as we were talking about the top of the program, I mean, I think, I'm not a big, oh, the Republican Party is so good.

No.

But at least they're sane.

This, what we have now, is insane.

All right.

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

First, let me tell you about Penelope.

She lives in Texas.

Man, over the years, she has begun to get older.

She developed a lot of aches and pains throughout her whole body.

She found she couldn't walk upstairs anymore without having to stop every little bit.

That's why God invented elevators.

I'm just saying.

Penelope, she happens to listen to this program, and she heard me talking about Relief Factor a while back, and she decided, I might as well give it a try.

If it didn't work, she was out 20 bucks.

If it did, maybe she'd get her life back.

You know the story.

Within three weeks of starting to take Relief Factor, she noticed her pain was receding, and eventually it was almost totally gone.

She says she can walk up the stairs with no problem now.

Penelope, thank you so much for listening and thank you for just trying it.

I'm glad it worked for you.

Works for about 70% of the people that keep ordering it month after month.

If you take it three times a day, as directed, I'm telling you, it will make a difference,

at least for 70% of those who try it.

ReliefFactor.com, call 800-500-8384.

ReliefFactor.com, 800-500-8384.

10 seconds.

Station ID.

All right, Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

We have, I think the biggest story of the week is the

Attorney General coming out and saying, yeah, you know, we should have the FBI look into these terroristic parents.

I mean,

everybody on the right and some independents are outraged by this story.

And I'm going to tell you something that I think is going to surprise you.

I'm happy this happened

because this is what they call the tipping point.

Yes.

Once you get into parental authority in this country, where a government is telling parents what they can and can't do vis-a-vis their own children.

It's over.

So McCollve is going to lose in Virginia.

You think so?

He's back in this?

I do.

I think that the silent people, the independent people, they're saying, are you kidding me?

You're going to tell me

to shut up.

when somebody in my school is telling my child to hate a person of another color.

You're going to tell me I don't have the right to go down there and vent on that?

And that's exactly what's happening here.

It's exactly what's happening.

And the second part of this story is that it's an extension of the white supremacist thing.

Okay?

So now what Biden and again, Biden, how much does he have to do with it?

But what the Biden administration, the message they're sending is, if you complain about critical race theory being taught to children, and remember what it is,

the essential message of that theory is that if you are white,

you are an oppressor just by your skin color because your ancestors did all of this stuff and you benefited and African Americans and other minorities got hurt.

That's what it is, okay?

So you are dividing children.

And then this, you can't complain about it because if you do,

then you're a white supremacist and you're a bigot.

It's an extension of that.

And it's just like in the quiz I gave you, white supremacy.

So if you object to critical race theory in the school, you're a white supremacist.

That's the linkage they're trying to make.

So the overarch is, if you object to progressive policies, no matter what they are, you're evil.

And you've got to be shut up.

And Merrick Garland is going to deputize the federal government to make sure you shut up.

Do you realize, Beck, there has not been one arrest in the entire United States made.

Not one.

At any school board hearing, at any public school confrontation between teachers,

not one arrest.

It's only because the cops are the Klan.

No, it's only because the cops are the Klan.

Whatever.

But if you step back, which I always do, and you look at the absurdity.

It's absurd.

It's absurd.

I think that the federal government would be threatening parents for stuff they haven't even done.

Let me give you one more piece of the story of what this is about.

Zan Tanner, Alexander is his name.

He married Rebecca Garland.

That's Merrick's daughter.

Daughter.

They started, these two started Panorama Education.

That teaches PRT.

Correct.

And

data mines all of this information.

They have a $2.4 million contract in Virginia with the Virginia schools.

Right.

And

gee,

it's almost like daddy's racing in with a private army to be able to make sure we shut down these people, these parents, who are questioning what my daughter's company is doing to their children.

I don't think that's a real good look for Attorney General Barland, do you?

No, I don't.

It's a good look for him.

No, I don't.

No, I don't.

But when you hear about that story, will Lester Holt tell you that?

No.

How about David Muir?

No.

No?

No, no.

If David gets out of makeup, but he wouldn't do it.

And how about Nora O'Donnell?

Is she going to tell you that story?

You know, I'm sensing a pattern here.

I think those are all the anchors of the evening news, which I didn't.

know.

And I don't think most people even know is still on the air.

That, Beck, is why these people can do and get away with this brazen conduct.

Yep.

Because the corporate media in America no longer covers the news.

Okay, so they know.

Merrick Garland knows what his daughter and son-in-law are doing.

He knows that.

But he's not going to get whip-sawed on it because no one will mention it except O'Reilly and Beck.

Let me give you one other piece of this story that I think too many people overlook.

They wouldn't be doing this if you weren't effective.

If showing up in these school board meetings and speaking your mind, if that wasn't effective, they wouldn't waste any time on you.

That you must continue to stand up.

By the way, check your school district.

Find out if Panorama Education is involved in your school district.

This is the Glenn Glenback program.

All right, I can't say I didn't warn you.

The holidays are coming up really quickly.

So you get on the ball and order your rech tech today.

If you've never had smoked turkey before, you're in for the treat of your life.

You might never cook the bird again the same way.

I love these people who fry it every time.

And I've always wanted to do this,

but I know I'm too dumb to do it that way because every year somebody like blows themselves up or something.

Anyway, the big meals like Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming up, or those nights when you're just having friends over to watch a football game on TV, or any day that ends in Y when you happen to be hungry.

RecTech will be there.

Bill O'Reilly, more with him.

Coming up next.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is with us, and Bill O'Reilly is interviewing President Trump next week.

He asked for a few questions from me, and I've spent the break.

Five or six questions here for you, Bill.

Thank you.

Very kind of you.

You're welcome.

Appreciate it.

Sure.

So here's your first one.

Why are you touring with Bill O'Reilly?

That should be the first one.

When will you announce one one way or another?

What would you do differently this time

that might bring others to the table?

We know that the left lies, cheats, and steals.

We know what they did in the last election.

They will now have at least two years, possibly four, where they are intent on bringing new voters in from

overseas and south of the border.

Why would we believe this would be a different outcome than 2020?

Because

they're going to take the whole interview then.

He'll just go, he'll just

wail on that.

What would you do differently?

That's really good.

How about this one?

Do you realize how much better the interview would be if Glenn Beck were

the person conducting it?

I like that.

Okay.

I like that.

Four years was not enough time to cut the cancer out last time.

You concentrated on the Supreme Court and made huge progress, but then the deep state was left in place.

What is the first thing in this term you would concentrate on, and what makes you think you can get it done in four years this time?

Okay.

You got it?

If you run, can you not destroy Ron DeSantis?

I'm going to ask him about DeSantis and

possible primary, and would he be as brutal on DeSantis and Noam and

Nikki Haley as he was on Little Marco?

I think he will.

I think he will.

He's not going to do the country any good, is it?

Yeah.

Bill, do you have any sense as to who would be the VP on a a potential Trump conversation?

Yeah, I mean, it's three people.

DeSantis and that, you know, those conversations have already taken place.

He's one.

Senator Tim Scott, South Carolina, and Christy Noam, the governor of South Dakota.

So those are the three front runners for VP now, but it can change.

And I just want to tell everybody that interview will run on the 18th of

October, Monday, and we'll send you some clips in advance, Beck,

on what happens because you've been so kind kind to guide me to straight up questioning free.

Bill, I noticed Mike Pence doing an interview on Fox this week.

Right.

And that seemed to get a decent amount of publicity.

What's the relationship status?

Yes, that's true.

What's the relationship status between Trump and Pence right now?

You know, it's a distant, cordial relationship.

I mean, if Pence calls Trump, Trump will take the call.

But Pence is not going to be involved in this election.

Any chance Pence runs on his own?

No?

Nope.

Nope.

You know, he just doesn't have the gravitas

in the sense that the Republicans, some of them believe he's a traitor.

That's unfair.

And Pence did what he did.

How is he?

Wait, wait, wait.

Traitor to what?

Well, he didn't try to decertify the election.

Okay, hang on.

Name the Republicans that feel that way.

No, no, no, no, no.

Back.

People who are very angry with him.

I'm not going to say it's the majority of the Republican Party, but, you know,

there are a segment of very, very committed Republicans and committed Trump people who believe that Pence sold out the president because that's what Trump said.

But I have to say that

there was no constitutional way.

to do that.

Absolutely.

There was no reason to do that.

We both pointed that out at the time.

But, you know, if you are really a fanatic in anything, you don't kind of listen to anybody.

You know how that is.

So

you think Glenn's a fanatic and won't listen to people?

No.

No, no, no.

Never.

Never.

He's only a fanatic about pillows.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't know how I would ask him this, but this is a concern of mine.

And because

he tends to have a very long memory.

And

when you're an enemy, you're an enemy.

Yeah, but you can get back in his.

I mean, look, I know.

Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on just a second.

How much

vengeance will be his

if he gets into office?

I mean, can he get back to an emotional neutral on the

people he feels have, you know, damaged the country, stole the election, everything else?

Can he?

Well, let's take Liz Cheney, for example.

Yeah.

So if Liz Cheney's re-elected in Wyoming, and I don't think she will be, I think she'll lose.

But say she is re-elected.

She's got a big money, you know, a lot of money going in to help her there.

Would Trump forgive Liz Cheney?

No.

So I'm not worried.

I'm not worried about, I'm really not worried about even personal relationships.

And, you know, what I'm worried about is that he was so angry,

and I think justified in many ways, very justified in his anger.

But

he's got to be able to go in and make sure that he is abiding by the Constitution and

not setting out on a vengeance campaign.

Yeah, but good luck with that.

Wow.

For Donald Trump, it's all personal.

And, you know,

I was surprised when Trump said he would do the history tour with me.

I really was surprised.

I didn't think it was going to happen because he knows that I don't pull any punches.

I hate to use cliché, but I don't.

And I know Donald Trump.

I know him as well as any commentator knows him.

And everything to Donald Trump is personal.

Everything.

And that is why he lost the election.

Because if you look at his policies, particularly in economics and the military, he did a really good job.

And then he got the vaccine in record time.

Any other president would have been elected by a landslide over a doddering guy like Joe Biden.

Any president that had done that, those three accomplishments would have been elected easily.

Even if the media was pounding you every hour on the hour, which is what happened to Trump.

And because Trump takes everything personally and makes everything about him, all right,

that

set him back among people who aren't really paying attention that closely.

They're basing everything on personality and emotion, just like he is.

But here's an upside that nobody, I don't think, has considered.

Because Trump takes everything personally, because he takes everything personally, that drove him to do a good job.

Yeah, I know.

I agree.

With all of his accomplishments, he could say, I did it.

I did it.

So he was like a fanatic on the economy, on getting black people jobs, on sealing up the border.

He's a fanatic on it, never rested.

All right.

Pounding the table.

And he did it.

And he did it.

So I said to him, look,

you go on a tour with me about history, what you did and how you did it.

That's a new look.

You haven't gotten any reporting on that because they hated you so much they would never analyze your accomplishments.

I'm giving you the opportunity to do that in front of huge live crowds and everything's going to be taped.

Okay?

And it's not going to be, I'm not giving the tape out to the media, but, you know, we'll use it and you can use it.

He has the use of all the things that are taped.

That put him over.

That's why he's doing the two shows in Florida, Lauderdale and Orlando, and the two in Texas, Houston and Dallas.

And Beck was going to come to the Dallas show, but his wife is ordering him to leave the country.

That's right.

She is.

She is.

But Beck,

we'll have a special

feed for Beck or whatever.

Well, I'd like to go to one of them, so maybe I'll fly to Florida for one of them.

Yeah, I mean, look, this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

People say, oh, yeah, he's going to do that.

No.

No.

I'm going to ask him very, very pointed, specific questions.

And you know me.

I'm not going to just move on.

I'm going to get the answers.

Or I'm going to say, in front of 10,000 people, well, no, Mr.

Trump doesn't want to answer that.

You know, that's how charming I can be.

So here's another question then

to ask.

What is your vision

to take us to the next level?

Well, no, but we can't.

He can't live on the I was screwed out of the election.

I mean, he's got to shut that down and

move on.

But he won't shut it down.

But I think if he does run for president, again, he wants to.

He told me.

But, you know, it's got to line up.

It's got to line up.

There's a lot of things involved with that.

And he doesn't want to spend his own money.

He's got a lot of money now in his pack.

I mean, he can do it.

But basically, he has to come to the realization that relitigating the 2020 election will hurt him.

Yeah, it will.

Okay?

It will.

He has not come to that realization yet.

He needs to just focus.

If he's going to run, he needs to focus on.

This new normal isn't normal.

I'm going to bring you back to when we had full employment, when we had a great economy.

He's got to keep it on issues and his accomplishments.

Yes, yes.

Not personal beefs.

Yes.

Yeah.

Okay.

So, but look, you and I can do that and we can analyze it from that point of view.

And certainly when I'm with him on the history tour, there's going to be a lot of discussions backstage and all of that.

I'm going to say exactly what you just said.

But can he discipline himself to look ahead and say, this is how I'm going to solve this problem, this is what we're going to do?

I don't know.

Yeah, he has to do that because

if it's a, I was wronged and this time we're going to win,

it won't sell with, I mean, it will be a repeat of 2020.

It will be

very close and they'll steal it.

We already have proof of that because when he went to Georgia to

campaign for the two Republican senators, he made a speech all about him and how Georgia hosed him.

The two Republican senators lost.

Yep.

Yep.

So the folks, and independents always, always decide elections.

But I'm telling you this: if he can latch on to that critical race theory and the anger of parents, if he can make that a focal point in his presentation.

He's right.

You're exactly right.

You're exactly right.

That ask him a question about

Merrick Garland and the FBI

investigating these.

Well, you know, Merrick Garland was

Obama wanted them Supreme Court.

I know.

All right.

Bill, thank you so much.

Bill O'Reilly from billoreilly.com.

We'll talk to you again next week, Bill.

Thank you.

All right.

Thanks for helping me out, Ben.

All right.

Sherry lives in Michigan.

And no, I'm sorry.

Angie wrote in.

She wrote into the show last week about her experience with American financing.

She said she called them after hearing me talk about them on the radio.

Thanks for listening.

And she said, like a lot of people, I spent 10 minutes on the phone.

I gave them a call.

She said, I wasn't convinced it would go as smoothly as Glenn Beck said it would, but it did.

And she got a refinance on her mortgage, and it was done in 30 days.

She got a great interest rate.

She said she had a wonderful experience overall.

She said, I never get tired of hearing from people who've let American financing

do the things that they did for me.

And I feel the same way.

They've done for me, what they've done for Stu, what they've done for my brother Robert, what they've done for so many people.

Sarah, didn't you use them at one point?

Yeah.

I mean,

we are using American Financing because they're really, really good and they work for you, not the banks.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Oh, yeah.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

We were just talking about the James Bond movie.

I saw it last night.

I'll give you my review coming up, but we were talking about it.

And when did the last one come out?

And we realized

I have no concept of time, at least for the last two years.

They kind of

is since COVID.

It's almost like that first spring of COVID was last spring.

I know it wasn't, but it just seems like those two years have been one.

Yeah,

just yesterday, I was trying to think of, I was getting, I got my car repaired at one point, and I was trying to think, was that before, when was that?

What year was that?

And then I remembered, oh, yeah, I had to wear a mask into the dealership.

So it had to be 2020, not 2019.

And it's like,

it's marking my calendar, basically, at this point.

My memories are being sorted by what dumb restrictions we had to partake in at any given moment.

You know, and we were thinking, we thought our defining moment would be, for our generation, would be 9-11.

9-11, yeah.

And this one seems, I mean, especially with the ramifications coming after this.

I think this is it.

Yeah.

You know, they were talking about, you know, just the health costs of this.

We're not going to know the health costs, the cost on kids' education, the cost on the economy for another decade.

Yeah.

You know, this is, there are going to be reports written about this for the next 10 years.

No, we are truly living history.

We're living economic history.

If even if this pulls out, this is the first time it's ever worked.

Okay.

So we're leaving economic history.

We're living constitutional history, either the end of the republic or the

massive save right to the edge.

We're living revolutionary history.

We're living medical history.

I mean, everything that is going on,

we're living technological history,

the change in our society on all fronts, the way business is being done,

the way small businesses have been done,

the way capitalism,

all of these things are giant moments in history.

And all we can do is be thankful that we have such an astute person at the helm.

You know, thank God Joe Biden is.

Let's go, Brandon.

Let's go, Brandon.

Let's go, Brandon.

Get your Let's Go Brandon t-shirts now.

Shop.blazemedia.com.

I want you to think back on all of the things that have been a crisis in the last couple of years.

Constitutional crisis with the impeachment, president impeached two times,

The corruption involved in all of that.

The election, which was absolutely corrupt, the now spiraling costs of cars and gas and refrigerators and your home and lumber,

food.

Think of the inflation just on meat that you're now paying.

You're paying $175

more than you did last year just on inflation.

And stagflation, even worse, might be in our future and worse than the 1970s.

Many Americans don't even want to work anymore.

The American government

now seems to have the back of the Mr.

Potters of the world and is set against even the ideas of the little guy at the Bailey Savings and Loan.

It's anarchy on our border.

Another possible 90,000 Haitians Haitians are coming our way.

A confirmed 60,000 are coming our way.

Afghanistan, not just anarchy, it was a marker to our allies and our enemies that America is no longer to be counted on and a marker in all of us.

This is dishonor.

We've dishonored ourselves.

The tribalism that is happening, the unelected bureaucrats that now seem to be running our country

without anyone being able to stop them, seemingly.

The FBI now investigating parents who say, I don't want you to teach critical race theory.

I don't want any of this in our school.

You now are a terrorist and the FBI is being weaponized.

The IRS is being weaponized.

The Constitution is being thrown out the window.

Wow, it's kind of hard.

It's kind of hard to imagine that the American citizen is going to survive.

Victor Davis Hansen is with us.

He is the author of The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America.

Does the American idea and the American citizen survive?

an investor, somebody, you know, a broker and saying, yeah, I'm going to give you my 401k and all my life savings.

He's like, okay, well, you can get me on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

I'm, you know, working at the restaurant the rest of the week.

No, I don't, I don't think so.

Victor Davis Hansen, senior fellow, Hoover Institution, and author of The Dying Citizen.

Victor, how are you, sir?

Very good, Glenn.

Thanks for having me on.

I don't know if I'm looking forward to this interview or not because

you nail the problem.

You nail the problem.

Well,

it's called the dying, not quite.

I didn't use the title dead citizen.

Right.

But

it's on its last leg, it seems.

It's in intensive care.

And I'm wondering what we have to do to be able to

save it.

Well, you know, Glenn, if we'd had this conversation, I was writing the book in the last two years of the Trump, and I was worried.

But

had we had this conversation then, we would have said for all of the lawsuits and the subterfuge, the border is finally becoming, let's say, by, I don't know, August 2020, secure.

And we had gone back to the idea that if you were going to come in the United States, you had to do so legally in measured fashion, and preferably with a diverse immigration policy globally.

And I think we also, I think you would agree that for all the and I had been very critical, I know you had too, of the spending out of control by Donald Trump's administration, but we still had low inflation and low interest.

and low unemployment.

And we didn't have people staying home or we didn't have the port of LA backed up beyond the horizon.

And you could say abroad that the Abrams Abe Court had turned a new chapter in U.S.

foreign policy.

We were gradually starting to get out of Afghanistan.

People had come to a consensus that now with energy and sufficiency, we're sufficient in energy.

We don't have to have these optional wars in the Middle East that don't pan out.

in terms of blood and treasure for our interests, much less the people who fight them.

So we were on a trajectory that I think was, you could call it it a remediation, or

not a complete anecdote, but we were making some progress.

And then

we had this woke revolution, we had COVID, we had the economic voluntary recession, we had the George Floyd riots, we had this 102 million absentee ballot election,

and it just, And by the time I'd finished the book, this was happening.

And

I thought, you know, nobody wants to read about these abstract historical and cultural and social reasons why we lose citizenship.

But then suddenly it's like

you're writing about, there it is.

Yeah.

It's

it's really it's really truly terrifying how well orchestrated this has been.

I mean, this is, it's brilliant in the architecture of bringing us down to our knees.

I think so.

I think in the 60s, protesters threw rocks at the Pentagon or they threw paint on the corporate logo at the corporate headquarters, or they went and stormed the dean's office.

But now those people, they are the dean.

They are the corporate

generals in the Pentagon.

So this is kind of a top-down revolution.

You know,

it's Phyllis Quellar's, the BLM co-founder Marxist on her fourth home, or Ibram Kendi charging us

$20,000 dollars for an hour of indoctrination on Zoom per corporate person.

So it's a very strange revolution.

It's among the elite taking these organic forces that have been going on, weakening the middle class, weakening the purchasing power of the middle class, destroying our borders, confusing residency with citizenship, and then

re-tribalizing so we identify by our race, our ethnic, rather than our common American identity.

But

that was empowered by these elites that want to change the Constitution.

They grew the administrative state.

They unleashed people,

you know,

General Miley, James Comey, James Clapper, John Brennan, Eric Kleinsmith, Peter Struck.

And then we've got these people who all of a sudden, I don't know what happened, but 180-year filibuster, no good.

50 state unions, 60 years, no good.

150-year tradition of nine justices in the Supreme Court, no good.

233 years in Electoral College, no good.

233 years that the states have primary responsibility in national elections, no good.

And that's the beginning.

They're questioning why.

And today in the LA Times, somebody's questioning why, and I mentioned that in the book, actually, why we need two senators.

Why not make them proportionally represented?

Why should Wyoming or Idaho have any senators?

Good heavens.

Read the Federalist Papers.

All of the answers are in that.

Good heavens.

So, where do we even begin?

I mean,

the average citizen is being taught a lesson.

They're being taught a lesson, get the vaccine and like it, and don't you dare say anything about it or lose your job.

There is no law.

There is no Biden mandate.

Nothing's been written down.

This is just people, him suggesting it, and then everybody going, oh, there's a mandate.

And it's not even based on the science, Glenn.

I mean, if you have had COVID,

we were told that was an inadequate prophylaxis.

Now we're told that natural acquired immunity is superior to vaccinations, but you still need to be vaccinated.

So we've got these people in the military and hospitals, some of whom, a lot of them, 100 million people have had COVID.

They have better immunity than vaccinated people.

According to Biden, you have to have both, but maybe people like me that got vaccinated but didn't get COVID should now go out according to that logic and get real immunity by getting right.

it's incoherent.

Yeah.

And it's scary because

we're losing our minds.

All of a sudden,

we're firing people at UCLA who don't want to use race as a criteria to punish or reward students.

Or we're shutting down small businesses, but Amazon and Walmart and Target are just exempt.

We're putting people in jail for violating quarantine, but a thousand health care professionals swear that it's better for the mental health of the nation that BLM protesters be exempted from quarantine law.

It's asymmetrical is what I'm saying.

We really saw that with

Senator Sinema in the bathroom incident where she was chased by those,

and then on an airplane, or when Chuck Schumer yelled at the Supreme Court and said, we're going to make you pay Gorsuch in front of a mob, or they rush Flake, And then you compare all of that to what they do to other citizens.

It's so asymmetrical.

And it's a weaponization of the FBI,

the U.S.

military top brass.

The FBI, the Capitol Police.

I mean,

it just doesn't end.

And they're sending the message, sit down, shut up, do as you're told, or we'll destroy you.

And

it's really critical, in my opinion, that

we understand they're only doing that because they know you can be really, really effective.

If all of us start to stand up and go, I don't care about your mandate.

I don't care.

I don't care if you try to destroy me.

I don't care.

I believe these things are self-evident, life, liberty, pursuit of happiness.

And those aren't the only rights.

And I believe in the Bill of Rights.

And I believe in the Constitution.

And I don't believe that just because you're white, you have to pay for something that a bunch of white people you're not even related to

did 150 years ago.

I'm not standing for it anymore.

I know, and you can already see indications of that, Glenn.

I mean, suddenly the Tony Awards, the Grammy Awards, the Oscars, they've just disappeared from the popular American mind.

Nobody cares anymore.

Those used to be national events to watch the Oscars 50 years ago.

Nobody watches the NBA.

The only reason that exists is because of a $1.4 billion Chinese mark a person Chinese market and the endorsements and the money that flows in.

And

I think people are kind of retreating to a monastery of their mind.

They're tuning out network news or network programming or the latest, going to the theater to see the latest Hollywood movie.

And so they're starting to.

And they're starting to resist.

And I think that's very scary.

And I think the military, when we hear General Milley and General Oscar going after white rage and white supremacy, but they don't produce any data that supports those really

inflammatory accusations.

And then I, so I, I, when I heard that, I thought, okay,

General Austin says he wants proportional representation in the military and or else.

And Milley said, we're going to go after all these supposed young white people that are prone to supremacy.

Let me look at the dead, the fatality statistics in Afghanistan and Iraq.

And

you look at them, and they're 75% white males, not women, not minorities, white males who have died in those two wars.

And I'm thinking, according to their own logic, then they would say, well, we have to pull them out of combat because they've died disproportionately according to the percentages.

Is that the kind of country we want?

But that's the trajectory that they're taking us to.

And

I think a lot of people are getting sick of it.

And it's just a question.

I think there's going to be a big pushback in the midterms, I hope.

I see these Hispanic communities where I live in the Central Valley that I think Mexican-American males voted 50% to recall Gavin Newsome, 43% of the Hispanic population.

And then we see these border communities where Republican or conservative city councilmen and mayors are being elected.

So something happened, I think, good to the one of the things I mentioned at the epilogue is that the Republican Party is starting to shed the caricature that it's a wealthy golfers, white, blue-stocking,

you know, sort of a Mitt Romney party.

It's more of a populist, nationalist, middle-class party.

It does, except for,

you know, the Mitch McConnells of the party that still seemed completely out of touch with the American people.

And I want to talk to you about that and also some of your solutions.

Victor Davis Hansen, Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, the name of the book is The Dying Citizen, How Progressive Elites, Elites, Tribalism, Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America.

Back with him in 60 Seconds.

American Financing, NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

The Federal Reserve has decided the benchmark interest rates, they've been holding them at near zero.

They've indicated that rate hikes are going to come up soon.

Some of the banks are already raising their rates.

You know, why not?

We've been talking about this for a while now, and borrowing costs are still at near historic levels.

I'm not sure how long

it's going to be before interest rates go up.

And even if they do, that's going to destabilize things.

It's going to be harder and harder to get a loan.

And I just think we're headed towards disaster.

Please.

10 seconds, station ID.

If Victor Davis Hansen makes sense to you, it's because he's still a farmer.

And I think there is something about farmers and people that,

Thomas Jefferson said this, when people have their hands in the soil,

there's just something about them that roots them into logic and common sense.

So

let me ask you about what happened yesterday with the GOP, because I have to tell you,

I don't see the GOP rallying around

our Bill of Rights or our Constitution.

And I see them seemingly just sitting on their hands.

And then last night, 11 of them decide, yeah, they're going to raise the debt ceiling.

Thoughts on that one?

Yeah, I think we're in a period of transition, but we've got an ossified leadership, especially in the Senate.

But what gives me some hope is

that I don't see a national ⁇ maybe you do because I'm maybe too naive, but I don't see a national campaign run on the principles of the old Republican Party, and that's a start.

What I mean is nobody's going to say anymore, as Jeb Bush did, that illegal immigration is an act of love.

And nobody's going to say that the more that you

concede to China and bring it into the global community and overlook cheating and patent and copyright infringement, the more they're going to repay that magnanimity with reciprocal magnumity.

I don't think anybody believes that anymore.

I just don't think anybody believes that you can write off the industrial heartline of America and say, well, the jobs left because these guys are all op-eds, these clingers and gregs and deplorable.

I don't think that's going to be, and that was pretty much, I think it was, what John McCain, that was the subtext of John McCain and Mitt Romney's campaigns.

I mean, I voted for them, but I did it very reluctantly.

I thought, wow, these are always the people that I never felt I had anything in common with.

So I think there's been a change there that at least rhetorically that people in this next campaign will run on the Trump agenda.

Now, they may tweak it or not be sincere about it, but I don't think anybody's saying we've got to get back to the principles of Mitch McConnell.

And maybe he did some good things with the outsmarted his rivals on judicial appointments, but I don't think that he's he and what he represents is what most people aspire to.

Now it's just a question of how much damage do you do in a realistic, pragmatic, short-term sense by getting rid of him versus who's going to report it and the interfraction squabbling while the Democrats are imploding.

So I think there's a lot of people who say, well, there'll come a time for Mitch to step down, but right now do we want to have a big fight when these people are socialist and they want to destroy us and they seem to be destroying the country and themselves and the process.

The problem is, is we've been down this road with the Republicans before.

You know what?

And they say a good game.

Well, we got to take care of this first.

They don't ever mean it.

They don't ever mean it.

No,

they don't.

And that's why I'm not a Republican.

I'm not a registered Republican just for that reason.

And

I was shocked, though, that they really did do certain things under Trump that I didn't think they would do.

I didn't think they would actually rebuild that rickety wall and start to rebuild some new

areas.

I never thought they'd do that.

I thought that was all going to be rhetoric.

And I never thought that

we would go into ANWAR or say that we want gas and oil on federal lands.

Or deregulate, I never thought that would.

I know.

Well, that was really, I don't think that was the Republicans.

I think that was Donald Trump, most of it.

Victor Davis Hansen, thank you so much for being a part of the program today.

Thanks for everything that you do.

The author of the book, The Dying Citizen, I believe it came out just this week, The Dying Citizen, How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America.

Common sense.

And you need to pick the book up.

This is the Glennbach program.

All right.

So I told you yesterday, and I'm not making this up, a trillion-dollar platinum coin is being debated now by some of the top

economic minds in the country and Congress.

Get the Treasury to print or to coin one coin, market a trillion dollars, put it in the Federal Reserve and say print off of that.

It's insanity.

And that's why inflation is going to become insane, whether they do that or not.

And gold is always the hedge against insanity, the hedge against inflation.

Please,

you want to put some money in Bitcoin, put some money in Bitcoin.

Thank you very much.

I appreciate that.

So I

last night, I went to a late showing of the new James Bond movie.

It's out this weekend.

It was supposed to come out a little earlier.

Like two years ago.

And my family, we are big

Daniel Craig James Bond fans.

We watch Casino Royale at least once a year.

As a family, we will all sit down and watch Casino Royale at least once a year.

Skyfall

and what was the last

Spectre.

There's only one that I think was bad.

And we don't even, we don't, that movie shall not be named.

That particular one in the Daniel Craig series.

Right.

Now, it's interesting because they had Billie Eilish sang the song

for No Time to Die, which came out two years ago.

Yeah, the song came out in February of 2020.

So, you know, they always do that.

They release the song a couple weeks before the movie, and then the movie just never came out.

Right.

But it came out, it was supposed to come out in, I think, was it March or April of 2020, and it's been delayed several times now.

And each time it kicked back, I went, this movie

better damn well be worth it.

Yeah, right.

If it sucked, this would be worth it.

If it sucked, if it sucked,

let me tell you, I believe it was worth the wait.

I don't want to hype it.

I want you to just go in going, it's a pretty good James Bond movie.

Just go in with that attitude.

I heard it's a pretty good one.

Heard it's a pretty good one.

That's good because you don't want to oversell it.

That's a classic Glenn Beck thing to do.

He tells you it's the greatest movie of all time.

And then you go in there and it's pretty good, but you're totally disappointed by that.

Yeah, it's not the greatest movie of all time.

I happen to think that it is.

It's my favorite of the series.

Of the entire James Bond universe.

No, no, no.

Of the Daniel Craig series.

Okay.

And yeah, the Daniel Craig are my favorite James Bonds.

Okay.

So to be clear.

This is typical Glenn.

He's not saying it's the best movie of all time.

No, no, no.

I'm not.

He's just saying it's going to fit that one.

I'm saying 45 James Bond movies that have ever been released.

I think except for the second Daniel Craig, which fits right by, what was that guy's name that did one James Bond movie?

Timothy Dalton.

Okay.

No.

Yeah, it was Timothy Dalton.

Timothy Dalton, that movie is slightly better than the second Daniel Craig movie.

Really?

Was it that?

Was it that?

Oh, it was horrible.

It was.

horrible.

But all in all, I love the story arc.

I love the fact that they're all tied together.

I didn't realize that until I think we got to Spectre or Skyfall.

And I'm like, hey,

that relates back to the first one.

I mean, you know, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer sometimes.

And so I love the storyline, and I love what they,

I just love the way they wrapped it up.

You'll like it.

Okay.

So a couple of things to get our Bond history correct.

First of all, George Lazenby was the one with the one movie.

Timothy Dalton.

Timothy Dalton had two.

He did Living Daylights and License to Kill.

Wow.

I never saw License to Kill.

Then it went to Piers Brosnan for four.

Yeah.

And then Daniel Craig now has five.

The second one, which you are giving a tough time to, don't say it.

Would be Quantum of Solid.

Oh my gosh.

Don't say it.

I think I saw the one that you.

You say that three times, and it's suddenly on Netflix and you're watching it.

Really?

Yes.

Don't do it.

No.

Don't do it.

That's because all of your devices are listening to you.

It's not a clear.

It's not a clear.

Oh, you want, we've decided you want to see Quantum of Solace?

No!

And I can't believe this.

I'm looking at now the list of all of the Bond movies, and the lowest reviews they give to any movie in the entire series is A View to a Kill with Roger Moore, which was one of the greatest films of all time.

I mean, clearly.

No, it really wasn't.

Some of it doesn't hold up.

But let me give you a part.

What,

okay, okay.

Planes.

They used planes in that.

They still fly planes.

Yes.

Now, let me give you a part of this that does hold up.

Yeah.

Okay.

And maybe

it was a prophecy in some way.

The villain in the movie is Max Zorin.

Okay.

And Max Zorin is a very strange person

who seems to be somewhat of a result of an experiment from Nazi Germany.

But he,

forget that for a second.

Okay.

All right.

He has a plot, as all Bond villains do, to do terrible things to the world.

His plot was to take explosives and put them under the earth in a very large amount and blow them up, which would then cause a massive earthquake that would bury Silicon Valley underwater.

Or it would essentially turn Silicon Valley into a lake.

Why did we stop him?

Max Zorin for president.

That's Roger Moore.

That's blame this on Roger Moore.

We wouldn't have had Facebook.

We wouldn't have Instagram.

We wouldn't have

any of these things.

Roger Moore.

Max Zora is stopped.

Yes.

That's the villain in that movie.

We didn't realize that Max Zorin was the hero.

I don't know.

I'm a little disappointed in that review of You to a Kill,

which was a classic Bond film.

However, it sucked.

I loved Roger Moore.

He was happy, but I love him.

Yeah, he was my James Bond when I was a kid.

And mine as well.

Yeah.

His last one was If you do a Kill, it was 1985.

Yeah, so I mean, I loved Roger Moore.

At the time,

it doesn't really age well.

He was about 84 when he made this one.

Yeah.

It doesn't age well.

He's not fast in the movie.

I do remember him in chase scenes, and it seems like they could have caught him there.

Too much polyester and leisure suits.

I mean, it's just that whole, that whole decade, you know, was bad to

remember.

Okay.

Bad on film, bad on records.

70s or 80s?

70s.

Bad, bad.

We should all forget that era.

Okay.

Now,

right?

Things have improved in many ways.

Although, I don't know.

Are you coming to the Mercury One thing tomorrow?

I would love to come.

Are you inviting me?

I would love to come, Glad.

Thank you for that invite.

I appreciate it.

We're all sold out.

Unfortunately,

sold out.

If you'd like tickets, you can still get tickets.

Just go to mercury1.org, mercury1.org.

If your name is Stew,

we are full up on stews.

Oh, no.

I didn't know you.

Too many.

Too many.

Name quota.

Yeah, plays.

Unfortunately, it's a Toyota music.

It's not me, man.

It's the Toyota Music Factory.

I've seen several shows at this particular event.

must not have been so many stews there when you went.

Okay.

Yeah, this is going to be a great event, though.

And it's

tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

And I'm going to introduce you to the real hero, the actual real hero.

Well, now that you've invited the real hero, he can come and I can be there and you can introduce me.

And that's exactly what will happen.

I will introduce you, and the real hero will be there, and I'll introduce him.

Oh, great.

But

anyway, he's the real guy who made every, it deserves all the accolades for what happened in Afghanistan.

And we're going to give you a profound update on that tomorrow.

And I'm also going to be

explaining

step one on how we

what we have to do to save our country.

It's the power of one tomorrow.

Okay, I have to get this off of my desk.

It's been on my desk all week.

I saw this correction and I thought I just have to share this because, you know, people say that the media, that the media just gets things wrong.

And I want you to know that the Daily Camera, which is the Boulder, Colorado paper of record,

has had to retract an article and they wanted to post some corrections in the article.

Everybody makes mistakes.

Everybody makes mistakes.

And that's how you make them.

When you're a journalist, you make a mistake, you post correction.

Okay, so it was a story that they posted on 9-11 of this year, and there are some things that they just needed to correct in the story.

And I just want to give you it.

Okay.

So first,

quotations.

They interviewed a bunch of people for this.

And one of the people said, you got to make some corrections here.

One,

that he said that he was...

that he suspended a phone call with colleagues on September 11th, 2001, that he monitored White House orders during the crisis, and that he escaped from the Pentagon.

And he personally witnessed rescues there.

Okay.

He said,

I didn't say those things.

Okay.

Yeah.

Well, they maybe they got that mixed up or whatever.

Yeah, yeah.

So they just wanted to correct it.

Oh, and also that

they said that he participated in a video conference with colleagues that were working in the Pentagon, some of whom he learned later that evening were killed in the attack.

He just

sounds like an amazing story, but that part didn't happen.

Yeah, that part didn't happen.

Nobody that he was on the phone call with was.

Okay.

I mean, look, you know, sometimes there are mistakes made when you're writing a comment.

Also, that he said that the phone calls he made immediately after the plane struck the World Trade Center Tower,

that didn't happen.

And an inaccurate statement wrongly attributed to him regarding President George W.

Bush's address to the nation that morning.

They got that one.

they got that wrong.

You mentioned they interviewed several people.

Maybe they attributed some stories from other people to this guy.

No, well, first, let me just wrap him up.

The story also attributes to him numerous references to exact times, which he said I didn't bring those up with the reporter.

So that.

Oh, and his current vocation.

He lobbies at Colorado's congressional delegation,

and he's not a university speaker.

Okay, well, I mean, look, the details of his job are not that germane.

Yeah, to write.

Sure, and if that's your mistake, that's your mistake.

And good for the Daily Camera to admit that.

And that does seem, I would say, extensive, but, you know, at least they came out.

Right.

And the other person that they interviewed said

she...

The statement from authorities that they couldn't contact United Airlines Flight 175 was not true.

The United Airlines had downed communications, and she suspected a hijacking.

She said, I never said that.

Regarding the monitoring of real-time live in-flight information, not true.

Stating that she was terrified to go back to the skies.

She said no.

That her love of being airborne died that day.

Not true.

Stating that she had survivor's guilt.

And her emotional reaction upon realizing that something profoundly bad had just happened and I would never see my friends again.

Not true.

Not true.

Okay.

Not true.

Not true.

Look, Look, this happens occasionally, not usually at this scale, but you know, maybe somebody had a bad thing.

Also, also, also, that she said her two closest friends were on board United Flight 175, and she had flown with them at least a hundred times.

A hundred times.

She said, I knew the two flight attendants, and we had flown together, but not the other.

And then the third person that they interviewed, they got a couple of things wrong there.

Another?

Yeah, John Maynard said, I never said that I left for work listening to reports of the events on my car radio.

I didn't know that it would, I'd soon be sifting through debris to help with identification.

I didn't say that I didn't know if my daughter was dead or alive.

By the way, they identified his daughter and they

gave the wrong name for her.

He said,

I never identified Flight 175 as my daughter's typical flight.

I wasn't called to report in New York City as a mental health specialist with the FBI.

I never tied the events of 9-11 to anger.

And I never said anything about the veterans of the Afghan war.

I watched it.

I'm not an FBI employee.

I watched the events on television.

Oh, and him saying that he found peace 20 years later and saying that the Afghan veterans should talk about their experiences should

not true.

So they corrected it.

So at least, I mean, look, sometimes you have interviews with hang people and everything they say is false, but that can happen.

They also acknowledge, the camera also acknowledges that there are a few other things.

The headline labeling the subjects of the story survivors of 9-11, none of them were

present at any of the tech locations.

They say they got in the.

They survived the date, right?

Well, yes.

So that's true.

They got wrong, apparently, the location of the Pentagon,

the timing of some of the events on 9-11,

the work arrangements of one of the interviews.

This woman was not scheduled to work on 9-11, hadn't switched schedules with another flight attendant.

The year that one of the people they talked to graduated from Boulder High School,

the trip to New York was on a commercial flight, not a special flight for the FBI.

The person's trip back to Boulder was not in a caravan with other flight attendants,

where one of the people worked that

day.

And the last thing that the Daily Camera wants you to know about this article is

this list does not necessarily constitute every error in the article.

That's amazing.

I must know where they said the Pentagon was.

It's in Idaho.

How do you mess that up?

No, but don't worry.

The press has got it together.

All right.

Patriot Mobile.

Taking a stand for what you believe in is hard.

Taking a stand against things you don't believe in can be even harder.

When I tell you a lot of the big mobile carriers today support leftist causes, you don't want to be doing business with them.

Just switch.

You're going to save a lot of money if you switch to Patriot Mobile.

A lot of money.

Now, they're on the same cell towers as the big companies.

You're going to get the the same great service, the same coverage.

You're not funneling money into Planned Parenthood by working with them, and you'll pay about half the price.

The Glenn Beck Program.

Hello and welcome to the program.

By the way, there is a

retraction from the New York Times today that

we want to pass on.

Yeah, it's important you note there was an article they wrote and it misstated the number of COVID hospitalizations among U.S.

children.

The real number is 63,000.

But they accidentally...

They accidentally had a different number in there,

900,000.

900,000.

Well, I think it's a very good thing.

It's a matter of just sometimes you put an extra zero or leave a zero off.

And six plus three is nine.

Right.

So sometimes you just replace the nine with a three and a six, and it happens.

I mean, it's easy.
