All right, we're about 10 seconds away from the radio program.
Standby, Medias.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback program.
In order for things to change, we all have to know what the truth is and then declare the truth.
That's exactly what we're going to do.
This half hour, we're going to tell you what the news is saying, what the president is saying, and then we're going to tell you the truth.
Your job will be to take that truth and stand in it.
Just make sure that everyone you know and everyone you're talking to today knows exactly what the truth is.
Because there's a meteor coming towards Earth.
Not true.
And it's going to destroy America if Mitch McConnell doesn't get his act together.
Again, not true.
We'll tell you in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck Program.
I don't know if you heard about the Facebook thing that happened yesterday, but Facebook and Instagram and everything else went out for, what was it, like six or eight hours?
It was, I mean, it was enough to cause people to go, oh my gosh, I can't believe they're back on again.
That's so great.
Didn't affect my life at all.
Didn't even notice they were down.
How about you, Stu?
Not really, no.
Not really.
If you didn't notice, good for you.
Good for you.
If you were Jones in yesterday, Bad for you.
And if you said, yeah, geez, that was really great.
I'm glad that went down for a while.
It was nice to do other things.
You have a problem.
That's a problem.
You can make that your reality every day.
That's weird.
You are not legally required to be on social media.
It's amazing.
Yet.
Yet.
All right.
So Facebook, there was also a hacking that happened coincidentally at the same time.
Yeah, something like 1.5 billion Facebook records appearing on the dark web for sale.
They say it was not connected, but
1.5 billion records.
You think you might be in those?
1.5 billion people?
Probably not.
Probably not.
Probably mostly people in Madagascar.
Yeah.
You might really, because that's who they're really after.
That's who they're after.
They're after the people in Africa because they have so much money.
All of those princes.
There are a lot of princes there.
There are a lot of billions of dollars.
I want you to go and find out if your identity has been stolen and is on the dark web.
Join LifeLock.
Nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions, but I can guarantee you
they are hard at work looking for those people who are now subscribers to LifeBalk to see if they were part of that $1.5 billion.
And they have a dedicated team to help clean things up in case your name is in that.
LifeLock by Norton.
Call them right now.

Use the promo code Beck or 1-800 LifeLock.
1-800 LifeLock is their phone number or Lifelock.com.
Promo code Beck, save 25%.
All right, so I would like to just dismiss a few things right off the bat.
Let's go to cut five, please.
Biden on the debt ceiling.
We're not expecting Republicans to do their part.
They made it clear from the beginning.
We tried asking, to no avail.
We're just asking them not to use procedural tricks to block block us from doing the job that they won't do.
Meteor
is headed to crash into our economy.
Democrats are willing to do all the work stopping it.
Republicans just have to let us do our job.
Just get out of the way.
Get out of the way.
If you don't want to help save the country, get out of the way.
Get out of the way.
So you don't destroy it.
Right.
Okay.
So what's he talking about there, Stu?
What does he mean by that?
Well, normally a bill like this would need 60 votes to pass.
And they're saying, what if we just have it, if you guys just will agree
to the Republicans, if the Republicans will just agree, they can make it pass with only 50 votes.
And they're expecting them to do that.
Now, of course, they've never done that for Republicans.
That's not the way they go about it.
And even Joe Biden himself voted.
in this exact same scenario to block the debt ceiling rise when he was in the minority.
That's what happens, you know, every single time.
Now, interestingly, they actually could pass it with 50 votes.
How?
Through reconciliation.
Oh.
However, they're not ready to spend their $3.5 trillion yet.
Well, it's not that they're not ready.
They're ready and eager and waiting to go.
It's just that they just have a couple of people that just won't vote for it.
Yeah.
On their side.
And all the bathroom harassment on earth has not yet changed their mind.
Has not put Humpty Dumpty, can't put Humpty Dumpty back together again.
So it's interesting.
They could just do this.
But they're not doing it because they want to have a separate opportunity to spend 3.5 trillion of your dollars ah so they don't want to give that up and it's like wait a minute i thought you guys said this was a meteor this is a catastrophe the entire society is going to melt down and you won't give you won't solve that problem because you want to keep your ability to spend 3.5 trillion dollars on on brand new programs and giveaways uh-huh and that's weird but it doesn't sound exactly like a meteor no it doesn't Yeah, it doesn't sound like how you would react if you believed it was a meteor.
Right.
Because if you could do it, but you didn't get candy,
and so you're not going to do it, it seems like you're putting your priority in candy and not in the thing that is the giant meteor.
Right.
Ha, that's weird.
That's weird.
Yeah.
Okay, so this is not true.
The Republicans are, I mean, the Democrats can pass it.
The Democrats can pass it.
But then they'll have a harder time passing their $3.4 trillion spending bill.
And Republicans know that.
And I think many Americans are against that spending bill.
And that's why they're working so hard on Joe Manchin and Cinema, Senator Cinema from Arizona.
Because they have to have those two.
Without those two,
you have to count on the Republicans saying we'll vote for
the ceiling.
Now, of course.
Lift the ceiling.
And Cinema and Mansion, not exactly the thriftiest of people here.
They've already both voted for the $1 trillion
infrastructure plan.
And Mansion is the only one we know his number.
His number was $1.5 trillion.
Now, that would put it at like fifth or sixth biggest spending bill in the history of the nation.
I think it's even higher than that, honestly.
I think it was third or fourth.
So he's willing to go there, plus the other trillion he's already agreed with.
And in his letter about the $1.5 trillion,
he says, I will not guarantee a vote for anything above this.
So he's willing to go above it.
He just will not guarantee his vote.
He will guarantee his vote for any package under $1.5 trillion.
And we're like, this guy's a moderate.
Can you believe this guy?
I can't believe how moderate he is.
Well,
I have noticed how the media just loves these Mavericks who are going against the Democratic Party and their own party.
They're Mavericks.
I mean, how many times have you heard the senator from Arizona is a Maverick?
And just is going against his own party?
Yeah, I do remember hearing that quite a bit back in the day.
Oh, wait a minute.
You were talking about John McCain being a Maverick.
That was okay.
It was something to praise.
You mean you didn't hear that about cinema?
New.
Oh, no, not a Maverick now.
Not a Maverick, my friends.
And then
yesterday,
we found out that they were being followed into the bathroom, out on their houseboat.
This is going to become very, very dangerous.
I warn you,
it's shout, shove, shoot.
They've been shouting.
Now they're shoving.
The only thing left is shooting.
And it's going to become more and more dangerous.
Here's what happened yesterday on the airplane with Senator Cinema.
Senator, hello.
How are you?
Sorry, I'm just Katina.
I don't know if you remember me.
I just want to know if
you can commit as my senator,
if you you can commit to passing
a reconciliation that could provide a pathway to citizenship for immigrants.
You have been waiting for this for too long.
I want to know if you can commit.
She's got microphones on.
Well, you commit to me on the airplane right now.
Can you commit to that, Senator?
Okay.
so she didn't commit.
She didn't after that?
No, she didn't.
She didn't.
She didn't.
Here she is in the airport.
I'm just trying to go and explain her movie airport right now.
She's pushing her fingers in.
Where's her security?
Where's her security?
What are you talking about?
Where's her security?
I've seen several of these videos, and she's a lot of times people.
I mean, this time there was people in the airport.
Security.
This is normal, Stu.
Is it?
Here's the president yesterday
on this just being, you know, normal, part of the thing.
Cut nine.
Joe Manchin had people on kayaks show up to his boat, TL at him.
Senator Sinema last night was chased into a restroom.
Do you think that those tactics are crossing a line?
I don't think they're appropriate tactics, but it happens to everybody.
To what?
The only people it doesn't happen to are people who have Secret Service stand around them.
So
it's part of the process, yes, sir.
Part of the process.
Part of the process.
Have women followed into the bathroom?
Yeah.
I didn't know that.
I didn't know that.
Now, I will say they are being consistent that men in the women's bathroom is okay.
They've been clear on that point to their friends.
And our point is kind of validated because we say men going into the women's bathroom is dangerous.
But, you know, let's not protect women.
Anyway, so they're going into the bathroom, and that happens all the time.
That's part of the process.
Hmm.
Hmm.
It's incredible.
It's incredible.
And, you know, look, there's two types of people in these situations, right?
The type of person who's going to get intimidated.
and will give in because they don't want to have their life ruined and be harassed all the time.
And then there's certain people who it will codify their belief.
You know, it will take a belief and say, you know what?
Now I will never vote for this $3.5 trillion.
And I will tell you this.
If there's anything you can do today, if you're going to get on the internet and you want to get on one of these social media platforms, drop a word of encouragement, very polite encouragement, not only to Kirsten Sinema and Joe Manchin, but also to AOC.
And let her know that she should not give in to these moderates who want to take away your spending bill.
I am so proud of you, A-O-C.
You go, girl.
You go do it, baby.
And make sure that you let Kirsten Cinema know that
you appreciate her backbone here.
In reality, I am impressed.
I will say,
I was a cinema skeptic.
We went through her stuff early on and there was word.
Maybe she's going to be moderate.
And I remember reading some of her background and things, the groups she was involved in.
And she's held up in an incredible fashion here.
So you know who's harassing her?
Is the Living United for Change in Arizona.
And so we looked into it, and you'll never guess who's involved in.
Now at the end, do they understand?
Yeah, Spooky Dude himself.
He has,
he has backed the group.
Meaning George Soros?
George Soros Open Society Foundation
is their biggest donor.
He gave $1.5 million to Living United in 2019 and $250,000 in 2017.
This according to their grants database.
So Living United reported around $1.7 million in revenue.
in 2019 and $328,000 in 2017.
Wow, these guys, man, I just don't know.
They just make so much money, don't they?
I mean, all of these groups just rolling in the cash.
It's interesting how the road always leads back to this guy.
It's almost as if it's all been foreseen.
More in just a second.
Standby.
Relief Factor.
Derek writes in about his experience with the Relief Factor.
He said, I'm a wildland firefighter.
Geez, my physical activity leads to stiff and achy joints.
I bet.
Especially during low activity periods immediately post-firefighting season.
When I'm trying to recuperate, it's sometimes hard to be motivated to go out to work at all, especially at 46.
Ah, yeah, yeah, 46 and you're in lots of pain.
Good luck with that.
I've been hearing about Relief Factor on the Glenn Beck program for years, decided I'd finally give it a try.
To be honest, I expected to get the three-week trial and cancel it once I found it didn't work for me.
To my surprise, I started feeling better within a few days.
I feel absolutely great now.
I feel like I'm 25 again.
Two weeks ago, I was wondering how many seasons on the fire line I have left in me.
Now, now I'm nowhere close to being done.
Isn't that great?
That's what you want to hear.
Relief Factor.
Try it.
Yeah, you might cancel it in three weeks when it doesn't work, but you also might find yourself being like Derek.
Get your life back at relieffactor.com.
That's relief factor.com, 800, 500, 83, 84, 800, 500, 83, 84.
It's relief factor.com.
10 seconds, station ID.
Wow, this is, huh.
Okay, so Living United
organizes voter drives and assists campaigns for Democratic candidates.
The ones that were said, you know,
we went out and we canvassed for you and passed elections.
We're doing against you.
They're grassroots community organizers
and funded by several deep pockets on the left, including Open Society, which is George Soros.
Bold PAC, the fundraising arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, gave
$12,500 to Living United in August.
The committee includes more than three dozens of Cinema's Democratic colleagues in the Senate and the House.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, pro-immigration charity, forward.us, gave $7,500 to Living United last year.
The Ford Foundation gave the organization $500,000 grant.
And the National Education Association, the largest teachers' union in the country, gave $60,000 to Living United.
So when your teacher says, no, I'm not part of it,
are you part of the union?
Are you with the National Education Association because you're funding the people that are following that person into the bathroom?
And I'm sorry, it's time to stand up.
I'm in a union.
What am I going to do about it?
Get out of the union.
Quit.
Quit.
I got to feed my, yep, you do.
We all do.
You're not going to be able to feed your family if these people are in charge.
And if you think that it's going to be a dream come true to be a teacher, and you're going to be able to follow your dreams and your spirit, and you're just going to be able to teach the things that you feel are important.
You're going to be teaching dangerous stuff quickly.
You already are.
You already are.
And you see already now what it's like to stand up against it.
You have to quit your union now.
Quit.
Quit.
You cannot live in this pack of lies.
You don't think there's value in trying to change it from the inside?
No, I don't think you have enough time to change it from the inside.
You need a mass movement of people quitting and saying, I'm not going to do this.
You have the, right now, we're going to talk to some people in hour three.
We're talking to some people that are under attack from the teachers' union.
The teachers' unions also just went to the FBI and said, you've got to help us.
These crazy parents that are coming out against CRT, that's very threatening.
And Joe Biden approved it.
And Merrick Garland from the FBI decided, yep, we're going to bring the federal government into this.
Really?
The feds are going to...
Why aren't the states investigating this?
If there are things going on, the state and local police should be dealing with it.
Why are the feds all of a sudden jumping into this?
So now parents are being told basically by this move, you want to mess with us?
You want to mess with the teachers union?
You're messing with the feds.
That's what's happening now.
Now I understand if somebody is threatening somebody, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to whatever,
that is the job of the police to stop it.
And those people have to be stopped.
But if you're talking about how threatened you feel
when you're sitting
in
an open setting and people are yelling at you, grow a thicker skin, dude.
Because that is part of the process.
If somebody's coming to your house, or dare I say it, following you into the bathroom.
And filming you while you're in the bathroom, that's not part of the process.
Harassing you and your family when you're out, that's not part of the process.
But
having to listen to families and parents yell at you in an open forum, yeah, that's part of the process.
Part of the process.
And they want you to know
you can't change anything.
They want you to know you have no power.
This machine has been built and you have no power.
I want you to listen to me carefully.
It's a lie.
And if you don't stand up now, it may not be a lie.
But you must stand up peacefully, arm in arm with other parents, continue to speak out, continue to be peaceful.
The American people, when they see it, see, here's the problem.
They have kept all of the pain away from the American people.
Through all of these schemes with the banks and everything else, they've kept all of the pain away.
You're just beginning to feel the pain, and the pain is going to get pretty intense soon.
And when that pain does,
if we're not all standing arm in arm and we haven't pushed back,
there isn't going to be any place to push back.
That's why this is accelerating so fast because the pain for the average person is coming.
Stand in the truth.
This is the Glenback Program.
American Financing NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
So the Federal Reserve has decided to hold benchmark interest rates near zero, but they indicated that rate hikes will be coming as soon as next year.
And of course, that's no surprise.
We've been talking about it for a while, but it's a surprise to them because they said they weren't going to do it until 2023.
Hmm.
I guess inflation is worse than they thought.
We're fortunate for the time being because borrowing costs are still nearly at historic lows.
But this is your chance and soon your last chance.
Already the banks are starting to move interest rates up in anticipation.
Please.
Do what you can to take advantage of the opportunity to better your financial life right now.
Debt consolidation or or lower mortgage rates.
If you're assessing your home equity and making it work for you, you're late in the game for lowering your interest rates on any loan, but this is your wake-up call.
Do not miss out.
Rates are going to go up.
Call American Financing, 800-906-2440.
AmericanFinancing.net.
Call them now.
Inflation is obviously on the way.
The dollar is not going to be worth anything.
So why not lock in the rates now at blaze TV.com/slash Glenn?
Right.
right promo code is glenn
this is
the glenn beck program
uh
i i have to play for you in case you haven't seen it and i can guarantee you you haven't seen it the taiwanese foreign minister says his country is preparing for war and is asking australia for help and i i want you to listen to this uh he
He is full-fledged freaking out here.
Listen.
Defense of Taiwan is in our own hands, and we are absolutely committed to that.
And if China is going to launch a war against Taiwan, we will fight to the end.
And that is our commitment.
And of course, during this period of time, we would like to exchange with other countries for security cooperation.
And we would like to engage in security or intelligence exchanges with other like-minded partners, Australia included, so that Taiwan is better prepared to deal with the war situation.
And so far, our relations with Australia is very good, and that is what we appreciate it for.
Help us.
Help us.
They're coming.
And notice
he doesn't use the United States.
United States.
Is there a chance the United States, I mean, we have a tree.
We're bound to it.
Nope.
Not a chance.
I don't think there's a single chance.
Not a chance.
That's why he didn't say anything about it.
He knows there's no chance.
Correct.
Lost cause.
We won't even rescue our own people out of Kabul.
We're certainly not going to help Taiwan.
What are they freaking out about, though?
Just because 77 warplanes from China fly over their island?
Is that what they're worried about?
No, it was 150.
Oh, it was 176.
150 warplanes have now crossed into Taiwan and have flown over Taiwan.
And that has unnerved them a little bit?
Yeah, 56 just today.
Just 56, though, warplanes.
A new record.
Because it was 38, and then it was 39 and then 56.
Yeah.
And 25 fighter jets and nuclear-capable bombers
into their air defense identification zone.
And you would think, okay, so you're trying at that point to provoke something.
Yes.
You're definitely trying to be shot at.
Yes.
So that you can respond.
Yes.
It's getting pretty dangerous.
Yes.
It feels like China has hit some weird level of desperation
and anger.
Like, I mean, they've always been terrible, but like, they haven't crossed these lines.
But you think recently, with the collapse of that, what was it?
Evergrande?
Evergrande,
they cut off all cryptocurrency transactions in the entire country.
Oh, no, no, you know why they did.
Massive energy problems.
Yeah, massive energy problems.
Oh, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, really?
No, you haven't heard?
No, no.
No, China has explained all of this.
They got rid of the Bitcoin because Bitcoin takes so much energy.
Okay.
And this is all part of them going green.
Oh,
no, but they got rid of all cryptocurrencies.
Yeah, because any transaction takes so much energy.
No, but when you're not on the same system as Bitcoin, even those dumb arguments don't apply.
No, I mean,
China is very clear on this.
Just one transaction consumes
1,544 kilowatt hours or the equivalent of 53 days of power for the average household.
Did they
address any of the other cryptocurrencies that have no power profile that's anywhere close to that?
Because they banned all cryptocurrency transactions.
Bitcoin mined in China uses 86 terawatt hours of electricity.
They maintain it, yes.
Well, first of all, thirds from coal power, and that's why they banned it.
They're getting rid of their coal power.
That's not true.
They also banned mining a long time ago there.
So this would have nothing to do with that.
Secondarily, a lot of the mining was done on excess hydropower
as they were set up close to these giants.
If you want to throw in your own little facts here,
that was kind of what I was trying to tell you.
I am just telling you.
I'm just going to spin.
Yes, I'm just telling you that Chairman Z has come out and said,
there's no way we're going to meet the world's standards unless we get off of coal.
And Bitcoin is part of that.
And now we're closing down some of our factories and some of our towns because we really want to hit the green energy demands.
And so are they closing the empty towns that they've built?
Is that what they're doing?
We're going to close down all the pretense
that no one lives in.
Oh, yes.
Some of them have to close down.
Yeah.
Sure.
They've
that Evergrande built.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And they've also shifted imports of coal from Australia.
Australia was the number one importer of coal for China, and they said no more.
Now, they've doubled the Mongolian coal that's coming in.
And so, but they're going to, they're really, because they learned, they said, you know, we see the writing on the wall with financing and the way Western financing is working, We're not going to be able to build these coal plants.
So even though they built all of these coal plants last year,
they want us to know that they're going to abandon them soon.
And this is what's well, how old were you last year?
I mean, I can't even remember.
Was I even born last year?
I don't think so.
Were there dinosaurs?
Yeah.
I think there might have been.
By the way, their peak coal-fired power generation is supposed to happen in 2027.
They keep moving that back, but they're still increasing their coal consumption from an hour until 2027.
And those are their projections.
Yeah, but they're going to close them down real quick right now.
Right now, they're just, that's what this power out.
Don't think that it's some sort of a shortage or, you know, central planning gone wrong.
They don't have that.
That's not an issue for them.
That's not an issue.
No.
It all works fine in China.
And
getting coal, you know, no longer getting coal from Australia, that's not strategic.
They just wanted to get it from Mongolia because Mongolia is landlocked and it's really close to China, where you've got to ship that dangerous coal all the way across the sea to China.
Wow, that's amazing.
The cutting edge of the green movement.
I believe Al Gore once told us that, didn't he?
He sure did.
Yes, he did.
What did he sound like when he said it?
What about your trained monkey?
I was asking a question.
Go ahead.
China is the cutting edge of environmentalism.
The cutting edge.
That's a real quote, by the way.
It is an actual quote from him.
This is by far the largest polluter in the world,
responsible for, what, 80% of all plastic in the ocean, responsible for emissions that are way above the United States of America.
And they were building the equivalent of a coal-fired power plant every week when he said it.
Okay, Okay, I have to change the subject.
I have to get the update from Baby Row.
Is Baby Row pro-abortion or not?
And we had a prediction yesterday.
Yeah, our prediction was it's on ABC the day before the Supreme Court starts, you know, a very controversial year where they're going to decide on abortion.
Oh, that right-wing court, you know, they're going to
ban abortion nationwide.
They're so right-wing.
And Baby Row comes out for the the first time, and she's on ABC.
And I thought, what are the odds that she's on ABC and going to come out and say she's pro-life?
Because that seems exactly like what ABC would run.
Oh, totally.
If she came out and she's like, look, I really think abortion was bad.
I mean, I would have been dead if it was legal back then.
So obviously I'm pro-life.
Clearly, that interview would air.
Yes.
They would definitely make a big deal about it in pro-life.
So it aired yesterday.
Oh, okay.
So what did she say?
Oh, you didn't follow it either.
I was hoping you were following.
Oh, no, I do know the answer to this.
Okay, I think I know the answer to this.
You're going to be stunned to hear she's pro-choice.
No.
Yes, but she was very clear about something.
What?
Very clear about something
that she wanted to make sure that she was not used by either side.
And of course, the way to do that is say you're pro-choice in the middle of a Supreme Court hearing on
national television.
Right, that's the time.
That's the time to do it, to not get used by either side.
And certainly, you weren't being used by being put on television to say the woman who would have been aborted back in the day is now pro-choice.
They're not going to use that at all.
No.
Just don't be concerned.
That special wasn't even using her.
No.
No, no.
The thing where she said, I don't want to be used, was not using her.
No, no.
And
one other thing:
the update on Chris Cuomo's accuser with Megan Kelly.
Yes.
Yeah.
Did you hear this interview?
It was pretty interesting.
She was, so the woman was an executive producer at ABC.
You know, she's been all over television, a very well-known executive.
And she claimed to be
groped by Chris Cuomo.
He hugged her and grabbed her butt.
And grabbed her butt and in front of her husband and then sent an email.
a very legalistic email to deny,
to not say that he did it, but also to try to appease her and say that he was sorry.
Anyway, she went through the entire story yesterday and she used the word groped.
I mean, that was her word.
She was not happy about it.
She said she was talking about how CNN would not hold him responsible.
She's trying to draw this line of, well, don't fire him.
Have him go and do specials on sexual harassment and all these things.
Who wants to watch that?
Besides him.
Wait, I could do specials on sexual harassment.
Wow, okay.
Yeah.
So Chris Cuomo still working there.
Still has not been forced to address this in any way.
Totally fine.
Totally fine.
Well, you already explained, Stu.
It wasn't sexual in any way.
Yes, he grabbed her butts, but that wasn't sexual.
It was like, you know, like a football player to another football player.
Except they're not football players.
And football players are both guys.
And football players don't squeeze the butt.
They kind of slap it.
So it's a little bit different,
but I'm sure it was very similar.
Well, Brian Stelter is all over this.
Either that or he hasn't said anything about it.
Yeah, well, actually, she mentioned this in the interview.
Wait a minute.
You don't know which one it is?
I can remember which one it is.
It's like, the Roe Baby, is she pro-life or is she pro-choice?
I can't decide which one.
Shelly Ross said that Brian Stelter had basically given up all of his credibility by not commenting on this.
Which is weird because there's not a lot of credibility to give away.
That's for sure.
You know what I mean?
But they, obviously, if a Fox News person, I mean, do we even have to say this?
If a Fox News personality was caught in this situation and it was documented,
I think Brian Stilter might mention it.
I know.
Really?
Yeah.
I think he might be a little concerned.
Right.
And he might criticize Fox for not making the host go on the air and talk about it.
I think this is crazy talk.
It's just like, you know, those people who don't believe that China.
is intentionally shutting down their own energy supply right now because of the green, you know, the Green New Deal.
It's going to be global.
It's going to sweep the world.
They're going to lead the way.
And they're very concerned about all of the people that worry about the planet.
They're very concerned.
It almost sounded like you laughed in the middle of that sentence.
No,
just a little bit.
Well, I was thinking of Brian Seltras' credibility.
Not of China's.
No, no, no, not at all.
Okay, let me tell you about Rough Greens.
Andrea wrote in a while back about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.
She said, our German Shepherd's been suffering with skin allergies and infections, and she has slowed way down because of it.
She also
has a bad hip.
I hate that with German Shepherds.
It becomes so painful for them.
We started using Rough Greens a few weeks ago, and the best word we can use to describe it is: she's happy.
She's happy.
She has bouncing her step again, seems to be walking better.
Fur is shinier as well.
We're thrilled.
We heard about your company on the Glenn Beck show, and you have another satisfied satisfied regular customer.
Thank you so much.
Andrea, God bless you.
It's really, it's amazing.
Uno eats his food now and we've been feeding him this or putting it on his food for about
two years, I think.
Does anybody have a sense of time anymore?
Like time is gone.
I have no idea.
Anyway, rough greens, not a dog food.
It's something you sprinkle on the dog food and it has really impacted our dogs.
You can get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out.
All you pay for is shipping.
Just go to roughgreens.com slash back, R-U-F-F-Greens.com slash back or call 833-Glenn33.
833-G-L-E-N-N33.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
On Saturday, October 9th, that's this coming Saturday, we have the Power of One, Renewing Kindness.
It is our annual fundraiser for Mercury One.
It is our 10th anniversary.
Can you believe it's been 10 years?
Show starts at 7, begins at 6.45.
The event begins at 6.45, but the show begins at 7.
We have a couple of really great recording artists, American Idol, former contestant, major Christian recording artist, Danny Gorky.
Also, Colton Dixon will be performing live.
Bring your friends, bring your family.
It's a powerful, powerful night.
It is a time for us to bring our families together, talk about where we've been, where we are, and where we can move forward, and how we do it as one.
The power of one.
You might want to bring a notebook because I'm going to give you a list of things to do.
People ask me all the time, what do we do?
What do we do?
I'm going to give you that list Saturday night.
Please join us.
It is going to be really a great event.
David Barton's going to be there.
We're going to be sharing history, showing you some of the things that are in the vault, and we'll share with you the vision for America
and artifacts that have never been seen before in public.
So go to mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.com and get your tickets, limited amount.
Hurry, get your tickets now.
It is happening this Saturday.
I invite you to come, mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.com.
Do it now.
All right.
We have
Stephen Moore on with us
in just a second.
I am so frustrated with the way the media is covering this economy.
They're doing everything they can to
make President Biden look like he's doing a good job on the economy, and they're grossly misleading people, you should be preparing.
Yeah, I'm interested to hear what Stephen Moore has to say about this because he is
usually a guy that can talk us off the ledge a little, right?
You know, he's
a little more optimism than we
might at times.
Yeah.
And
I'm interested to hear what he thinks about the supply chain.
Like, are we going to have products in our stores?
You know, right now it seems like there's a lot of indications that there might be some trouble with that coming up.
Yeah, but if you could swim out to the cargo ships, you could get that product you've been waiting for.
It's right there.
Maybe we can borrow the boats from the people who are harassing Joe Manchin.
Oh, that would be great.
There you go.
But don't they care about America?
No.
Back in just a minute.
Let's talk about your dog.
Your dog is your best friend, probably, The one that isn't annoying all the time.
Happy to see you.
Completely unconditional in its love for you.
That's the type of creature you want to take care of.
Everyone, he's human beings.
Ugh.
You know, they're just terrible most of the time.
But dogs, totally different thing.
We have a couple of dogs, Piper and Miles.
Miles is known as President Miles because he sleeps 22 hours a day like the President.
And he,
while he loves his sleep, he's the most comfortable dog in the world.
He also loves to get up and have some rough greens.
Rough greens is a supplement you put on top of the dog food.
It's not a dog food itself.
It just gives you all the vitamins and minerals that you need to give to your dog for a happier and healthier life.
My dogs love rough greens.
I know Glenn's dogs love rough greens as well.
They do.
And, you know, considering the difficulty you used to have feeding your dogs, it's nice to have rough greens because they're excited to eat.
Okay, we're going to be coming back here in just a second.
It's roughgreens.com/slash back or 833-glen33.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenbeck Program.
Let's go, Brandon.
I'm sorry.
Welcome to the Glen Beck program.
By the way, you can get your t-shirt, Let's Go Brandon t-shirt.
You know, if you're in the know, you know who Brandon really is and how we all really feel.
You can get that at shop.theblaze,
actually shop.blazemedia.com.
Anyway, we want to talk a little bit about the economy.
Stephen Moore usually can talk me off the ledge.
Sometimes I talk him onto the ledge.
He is a renowned economist.
He has worked for the former administration as an advisor.
He is now the co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity.
I think we're going in the opposite direction.
I want to talk to him about the economy, the supply chain issues, and
the
debt ceiling and the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill.
What's coming our way?
Stephen Moore coming up in just a couple of minutes.
The Glenn Beck program.
All right, but first, let's talk about Relief Factor.
Let me tell you about Elizabeth, who wrote in recently about her experience with Relief Factor.
She says, I've been taking Relief Factor for two weeks, and I already want to tell other people about it.
Yesterday, I took two Pilates classes
and I had two of them.
I've had hip replacement surgery that really has been slowing me down until Relief Factor came along.
I've always been athletic, but I was concerned that my energy and my stamina were
becoming things of the past, not anymore.
People have always told me how young I look for my age, and now I really feel young for my age.
Thanks, Relief Factor.
Elizabeth, I absolutely love your story.
Thank you so much for writing in.
Thanks for trying, Relief Factor.
Please, if you want to get your life back and you feel like this is the way it's going to be, don't feel that way.
At least try this.
70% of the people who try it go on to order more.
The three-week quick start trial pack will show you if it's going to work or not.

ReliefFactor.com, 800-500-8384.
Stephen Moore is joining us now.
Stephen Moore, co-founder of Committee to Unleash Prosperity, senior economic contributor for FreedomWorks.
We want to talk to him about the economy, the supply chain, the reconciliation bill, the debt ceiling.
Hey, Stephen, how are you?
Hey, Greg, I'm good.
I'm in a good mood.
Yeah.
How are you?
I learned yesterday that all of this $5 trillion spending bill, it's free.
It's not going to cost a penny.
Yeah.
One nickel.
Yeah.
Puts you in a good mood, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, wouldn't it be wonderful if life was that great?
All we had to do was just print all this money and
it would be free.
You know, every time Joe Biden says that, by the way, and Nancy Pelosi says it, the support for the bill goes down.
You know, it kills me.
I was doing an interview the other day.
I think it was with Megan Kelly, and she said, you know, but a lot of people say that this thinking, this new modern monetary theory,
really kind of dates people and shows that, no, you're living in the past.
You don't have to do that.
And I said, you don't think
some king back in the 1200s
had the idea of, let's just print it.
We don't need it.
I mean, come on.
Yeah.
Well, you know, this is a great point you're making.
So, you know,
you and I have known each other a long, long time.
And for the last 30 years or so of my life, I've dabbled the Keynesians.
And the Keynesians believed this, you know,
back to the 1930s, that what you did with fiscal policy, government spending and tax policy, is when you had a depression or we had a war or you had some kind of crisis like COVID, that you would run up government borrowing.
And then the idea of Keynesian economics was then when the economy improved, you would start to pay that debt down.
And it was sort of a way of smooth.
And that was the theory.
And I never believed in the theory.
I thought it was just an excuse to spend money.
But the point is, so now
we are in a recovery.
I mean, the economy is actually doing well.
We have 10 million open in jobs today.
There are jobs out there for anybody who wants them.
There's no shortage of jobs.
And yet the government wants that, the left wants to borrow
$8, $10, $12 trillion.
Now, from an economic point of view, that makes absolutely no sense.
It's anti-Keynesian, right?
And we should be actually paying down our debt right now,
not increasing the debt in a recovery.
And so now they've come up with this new idea that, as you just said, it's called modern monetary theory.
And all modern monetary theory is, is the idea that the government can spend and spend and borrow and borrow.
And because we are the world reserve currency, we can do this at no cost.
Now, that is, as you said, the kings of the Middle Ages thought of this idea.
Correct.
Every time it's ever been tried, it has led to the decline of empires.
I mean, you go back to the Greek Empire, the Roman Empire, the British Empire, you know, the great empires of, and the one constant is that mostly these empires have been destroyed from within, not from without, and debt and overgovernment spending have been, you know, the trigger for the decline of empires.
Now, I hope that doesn't happen in the United States, but come on,
we're going to double our national debt over the next 12 years, and that's supposed to be good for our economy.
Well, the idea here and what we're leaving out, what we're leaving out is the really fun part of monetary theory.
The reason why they say that it's not going to calm the beast, man.
Calm the beast.
The reason why I'd say it's not going to lead to inflation is because we can,
the government will control what people can buy and not buy.
So if milk all of a sudden starts to become,
you know, too high of a price,
they'll quash that price by, you know, by making sure that the milkmaids are milking more cows or whatever it is.
So it requires incredible amounts of government to be able to quash the inflation they say will never happen.
People should be paying attention right now to what's happening.
I don't know if you've been paying attention, Glenn, to what's happening in Britain right now.
But they're paying like $7, $8 a gallon for gasoline right now.
They have such supply chain problems that people are literally taking water bottles and they're filling up with gasoline for their cars and they're hoarding it.
And doesn't this remind you of what happened in the 1970s when we had gas fines?
And it's because the energy supplies have been really restricted.
And gee, what country is restricting their energy supply?
Oh, yeah, the United States.
You know, we're the number one producer of oil and gas and coal.
And we've got a ding bat president who's saying, let's stop producing oil, gas, and coal.
This is, you know, even if he believed that we had to stop using fossil fuels, the idea of just turning off the spigots now is really, really dangerous.
Very dangerous.
I worry that that's coming to the United States, that you're going to start seeing higher and higher gas prices.
We're not developing new wells in this country right now.
And we have so, I mean, the Permian Basin in Texas, I think you're in Texas, that has more oil than even Saudi Arabia has forgotten.
I will tell you, Stephen, I think that it is possible in the next 18 months that we see $6, $7 a gallon gasoline here in America if we don't change course.
I mean, nobody in the Middle East is listening to us anymore and doing us favors.
And
we're not producing anything.
And quite honestly, the green people would love gasoline to be that high.
They would.
They want it.
And incidentally, there's an amazing fact for you, Gwen,
that really shows what can happen when you put America first.
In January of 2021, January of this past year, do you know how much oil, this was Donald Trump's last month in office, do you know how much oil we imported from Saudi Arabia?
No.
Zero.
Zero.
That was the first time in your and my lifetime, we were actually not importing oil from other countries.
Now, you know, so Biden comes in, he reverses that, and now we're totally, I mean, OPEC, who's the big winner in everything that Biden is doing right now?
Well, let's see, the Saudi oil sheeps, OPEC, Vladimir Putin, and China.
I mean, we're playing right into their hands.
Okay, so
let's talk about the supply chain here.
I don't think people understand, you know, people, everybody has experience going into some store and, you know, wanting something and them saying, we don't have anymore, and I can't tell you when it's going to come back in.
But I've been recommending that people do their Christmas shopping right now.
You agree with that?
There are supply chain problems.
It's all being driven by government.
People ask me, why are we having problems?
I'll give you one example.
So
I'm actually pretty close to Fred Smith, who's the CEO of FedEx, great guy, one of the great entrepreneurs in American history.
And he is probably the CEO of a company that's one of the 25 largest companies in the world.
He was telling me the other day that FedEx has 20,000 job openings.
20,000 job openings.
Truckers, mechanics, people working in the warehouses, people working in delivery, people, and these are, FedEx is a high-paying
employer.
They pay, you know, their truckers make $80,000, $90,000, $100,000 a year.
They can't build the jobs.
You know why, Glenn?
Because the government is paying people to stay unemployed.
With all of these benefits,
one of the worst features of what Biden wants to do is they are eviscerating all of the work requirements that we put under Bill Clinton, who was a Democrat.
We put in welfare reform that basically said, we're going to have a safety net, but
you got to work or get training or get schooling or get skills.
They're getting rid of all of those things.
And you've got people literally in many states now, you've got a couple that's unemployed with all the benefits, the food benefits, the rental assistance, the cash payments, you can make $100,000 a year and not work a single hour.
Geez.
Stephen, I heard yesterday the president said that it's the Republicans that are trying to destroy the economy.
The Republicans won't raise the debt ceiling.
That's not true.
The Republicans aren't going to do it because the Democrats could do it just with 50 votes if they didn't want the reconciliation package as well
of $3.5 trillion.
So it is their
recklessness of the $3.5 trillion bill that is actually going to put us into default.
Who's going to blink first and tell me the ramifications of it?
So let me just correct you on one thing you said, Glenn.
It is not a $3.5 trillion spending bill.
They're using phony accounting.
They're using fake bookkeeping.
It's really $5 trillion.
The Wall Street Journal reported on that a few days ago: that if you use real accounting, it's $5 trillion.
So that's point number one.
Point number two, I'm going to use an analogy.
Let's say that Glenn Beck is,
you know, you've had some tough times and you took out a bunch of loans and now you're having a hard time paying back the loans.
And so you have to go to the bank and say, hey, look, I need another loan.
I'm running, I've got some tough times here.
I'm on the road to bankruptcy.
And I want a loan and can you increase my credit card limit and the bank is going to say
well you know what's your plan what's your plan for getting out of debt Glenn Beck you know if you've if you've got if you've got this debt you know how you want us to extend your your credit card limit and you want a loan we want to see your plan for for getting out of debt
and and then it would be analogous to then then you're saying that the reason I'm bankrupt is because that bank they won't give me the loan And this is exactly what Republicans are doing.
They're saying, we're not going to give you a credit, an increase in the credit card limit when you want to go out there and borrow $7 trillion more money.
That's insanity, right?
And so
the Democrats are saying the reason we have to face a financial crisis is because the Republicans won't raise the debt ceiling.
No, the reason we're facing a debt crisis is because you morons want to go out and borrow and borrow and borrow more money.
And so,
and one other point about this, because I've been, again, I've been in this game a long time.
The reason the debt ceiling is important.
Hello.
Did we lose him?
Seems like we did.
We lost him.
Let me take it.
Get him back on the phone.
We'll take a one-minute break here, real quick.
Get a Rectech, they said.
It'll be fun, they said.
It'll save you hours of cooking time with smart grill technology while making perfect meals for you, they said.
Well, they said a lot, and they were right.
RekTech takes the traditional grilling game that you've always known to an entirely new level.
For quite some time, I have been using a Rectech, and I'll tell you, it is the best grill out there.
Bar none.
I was in a store buying a refrigerator the other day, because a refrigerator, you know, it'll be delivered in
two weeks.
Two weeks.
But anyway, buying a refrigerator, and they had a bunch of outdoor grills and everything else.
I didn't find anything there, and these were really good grills.
Didn't Didn't find anything that would even challenge the RekTech.
It's built to last.
It's made out of heavy stainless steel.
It is
built by guys who take these things on the road
and do the cook champ, you know, the cook-off championships.
So they know what they're doing.
And it has smart grill technology.
It's just the best.
AB Compare, RekTech, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.
That's Rectech with a Q at the end.
RekTech.com.
10 seconds station ID.
We still don't have him.
Oh, my gosh.
It's Facebook.
Facebook got to him.
Facebook got to him.
It could be it.
It's an interesting process to watch because the Democrats could do this.
Not only could they do it, they could have done it a long time ago.
Just pass this with 50 votes.
They're trying to pressure Republicans into going along with their giant bills and all the things that they want.
Well, we're past all those windows now because the Democrats have done a terrible job, even though they run every aspect of this government.
And
even though that's true, every news article blames the Republicans for blocking.
It's all, oh, the Republicans won't do this.
The Republicans won't go along.
We're facing financial catastrophe.
The Republicans won't budge.
Well, they don't have any power.
This is why everybody needs to get onto Facebook and Twitter and whatever your social media is today and just and just post.
What power do the Republicans have to stop the debt ceiling
from being raised?
They have no power.
If the Democrats want to do it, they have to give up their, as Stephen Moore called it, $5 trillion spending package, but they can vote to raise the debt ceiling.
They could also put it in the $5 trillion spending package.
I mean, in theory, they could do that.
It could be in that bill.
It could have been in the $1.9 trillion bill they already passed through reconciliation.
They just didn't put it in there.
And the traditional way that this gets handled is
the power that is
in the side of whatever party has power at that point usually usually passes this bill and has to take whatever hit there is, right, associated with saying you were the ones that voted for the debt ceiling.
You see it in every political ads every single season.
They voted to raise the debt ceiling 12 times, right?
It's a little bit of a back and forth.
Both sides do it to each other.
It's been an understood part of this game for a very long time.
And Democrats are just like, well, now we want you to do it for us.
Even though you're in the minority, we want you to come along along and change the rules so we can just pass this and have no problems.
No, well, no, I like and and the again, they could do this themselves if they just either came to some agreement on their stupid bill or uh just put it through clean.
All right, we have Stephen Moore back.
Hi, Stephen.
Hey, sorry about that.
I think that Nancy Pelosi disconnected us.
Yeah, okay.
All right.
All right.
So we were we were talking about
the
spending bill and the debt.
What does this actually look like if we don't raise the debt ceiling?
What happens?
Well, let's just imagine that we didn't raise the debt ceiling before the limit happened.
It is not true.
It is not true that we would default on our debt.
Okay, I want to say that one more time, folks, because you keep hearing the slide.
We will not default on our debts.
What it means, Glenn, let's assume that, like, let's say after October 31st, we run out of
debt ceiling.
And what it means then is the government is legally prohibited from borrowing any more money.
Now, money comes in every day, you know, payroll tax money, income tax money to the federal government.
What it essentially would mean is the government can only spend what it brings in.
What a concept, by the way.
So they can only, they can't borrow, but they can spend as the tax dollars come in.
And so that would mean that we could pay Social Security, we could pay for Medicare, we could pay for the national defense, but we'd have to prioritize saying, you know what, Department of Education, you're going to have to shut down for a few weeks.
Would that be a disaster?
Department of Labor, you're going to have to shut down.
No more foreign aid for a while.
I think this sounds like a dream come true.
Exactly.
So, you know, you want a balanced budget?
I know how we can get a balanced budget.
Don't raise the net ceiling.
It legally requires it.
Now, look, would I recommend that?
No, but I'm saying it's not the end of the world.
Do you notice how every time everything is always the end of the world?
You know, oh my God, we're going to, now, what is the end of the world or what is extraordinarily dangerous is the idea we keep staying on this path we're on and borrowing and borrowing and borrowing by more and more money.
Now, the one thing that Joe Biden said that is true is both parties are responsible for this debt.
No question about it.
Both parties are responsible.
But they're taking a debt that's $22 trillion and they want to raise it by another $10, $15 trillion.
And I think the Republicans should say, hell no, you broke it.
You're the ones who want this massive spending bill.
We're against it.
By the way, the Republicans have not been even included in any negotiations.
The Democrats haven't even talked to the Republicans in nine months.
Now they come to them and haven't had and saying, oh, but you have to vote for the debt ceiling increase.
No,
I think Mitch McConnell is absolutely right here.
So are we going to stand against it or will the Republicans blink?
No, what's going to have to happen is, and McConnell is, this is the other part of the story that the media refused.
The New York Times had a big front page story and the Washington Post about this saying, oh, Republicans are going to bring the government to the brink of disaster.
No, what happened is Mitch McConnell is saying, you have the votes to raise the debt ceiling, but you're not going to get any Republican votes.
You see, what the Democrats want to do is have everybody hold hands, stand on the cliffs, and jump off together.
No way.
Yeah, good.
Stephen, I don't know if you can hold on, but I'd like to spend some more time with you if you have time.
Back in just a minute.
This is the Glenback Program.
All right, if you're over 50, it's time to start considering what benefits you're going to join.
Or if you've already joined one, it might be time to rethink and consider joining a different one.
Don't worry, I'm not going to leave you hanging.
I have one in mind.
It's called AMAC, the Association of Mature American Citizens.
The group is now over 2 million members strong strong and growing, and the benefits are amazing.
Insurance, discounts, travel benefits, all of that.
But more important is their advocacy.
AMAC provides everything you're looking for, but goes above and beyond to provide a whole lot more in advocacy for you in Washington because your freedom is important.
Their freedom is important.
AMAC members played a significant role in stopping the passage of House Resolution 1, the federal takeover for the election legislation.
That's from Pelosi.
They're doing the same now with Resolution 4, another terrible bill trying to establish federal control of elections again.
We have to have a group where we can all stand together and let our voices be heard en masse.
AMAC is that group.

Stephen Moore joins us again,
a renowned economist and also the senior economic contributor to Freedom Works and co-founder of Committee to Unleash Prosperity.
Stephen,
you know me.
I have been, you know, calling for doomsday for a very long time.
And,
you know, I generally, my predictions are in the right direction,
but they,
you know, my timing is
all off.
And they have broken all of the fundamentals to try to make anything,
you know, try to make everything good.
And I think they're just making it worse and worse as we go on.
Let's first talk about the shelves that are going to be empty next year.
What is the impact to the American people?
Well, you know, it's interesting, Glenn, because
during the break we just took,
I got an email from
one of my guys, and it says that in China and India,
because of energy problems, supply problems, what we were just talking about, Guess
what energy source China and India, which I think combined to have 2.5 billion people, guess what they're turning to?
I would say,
I hope that it would be clean energy like nuclear, but it's probably coal.
Coal.
Yeah.
It's not, eh?
It ain't windmills and it ain't solar panels.
Right.
It's coal.
And they're turning to coal because we've turned off the spigots of natural gas and
oil.
And by the way, I support coal.
Coal This country was built on coal, and we have the cleanest coal in the world in the United States, and we're not producing it.
So now they're producing dirty coal in India.
China has 1,000 coal-burning plants, and they're building hundreds more.
Do you think they care about climate change?
Well, President Z just came out and said he did.
That's one of the reasons why they stopped Bitcoin.
We have to thank these people for their
believing Brezhnev, right?
Yeah, we believe you.
So my point is that
the left lives in this fantasy world that they believe, you know, we are realists.
They are fantasists.
They see the world as they want it to be, not as it is.
And so we do have these supply side problems with respect to
the blockchain.
And it's getting worse, and it's because we are d dismantling our free market economy, and we are depending more and more more on government.
I'll give you another example of something I worry about, the supply of our drugs and vaccines.
Yes.
We've got the,
basically, Biden wants to take over the drug industry in the United States.
And we're going to run out of this stuff if they do that.
Stephen, a lot of people aren't paying attention to the cars.
Everybody's like, oh, man, you know, the new electric cars are coming and it's all going to be electric by 2030.
Yeah, it is literally all going to be.
Ferrari Ferrari will be making all electric cars, no more combustion engines by 2030.
All of the car companies are going to this.
Where's all that power going?
Glenn, Glenn, let me interrupt you for one second.
You know what percentage of cars on the road today are electric vehicles?
3%?
Yeah, you're way too high.
About 1.8%.
1.8%.
Does anybody in the right mind other than Joe Biden think that over the next 15 years, we're going to go from 1.5%
to even 50 or 70%?
All of the new cars, though, every single company has a commitment to be all-electric by 2030.
It's crazy.
You know what, Glenn?
You know what?
Guess who they forgot to ask?
Yeah, the people.
Consumers.
Yes.
The people, right?
Look, I don't have anything against Teslas.
I've driven a Tesla.
They're wonderful vehicles.
I just don't want the government to pay for them.
We've got a policy.
You can't make this stuff up.
The government is in this in this $5 trillion spending bill going to provide, pay $7,500 to you if you buy an electric car.
Where's that money going to come from?
And by the way, who buys Teslas?
Do you think poor people living in the inner city buy $100,000 Teslas?
This is the biggest giveaway to rich people ever.
So what are we facing with inflation?
What is inflation going to be like?
Well, it depends.
It depends on the decisions that we have, the reason I was so eager to do your show today, because I know you have such a well-informed and a large audience.
Folks, this is not a fire drill, right?
We're not making this stuff up.
These people watering Washington right now are cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.
I mean, they really want to transform America.
I mean, Biden said that.
He said, we're going to pass this bill because we want to transform America.
Well, Glenn, I kind of like America the way it is right now.
I don't want to move us towards France and Spain and Italy.
They want to move us towards a
big government socialist economy.
We have to stop them.
I'm running a coalition called Save the Country, Kill the Bill, with Larry Kudlow and many others who want to save this country from socialism.
Glenn, here's the problem.
If they pass this $5 trillion spending bill, for the rest of your and my careers, we're going to spend every day trying to undo the damage they're doing.
In what areas?
Trying to deal with the debt, trying to deal with the massive government takeover of the health care system, the massive increases in taxes that are on our small businesses and American companies, dealing with they want to reverse.
They want to have forced union policies in every state.
I don't have a problem with unions, but I do have a problem forcing people to join a union.
I mean, I could, how much time have you got, Glenn?
I mean, I could talk for a half an hour about how sinister this bill is.
It's filled with pork.
Did you know
they have a provision in this bill that if you're a reporter,
you don't have to pay payroll tax.
If you're in the media, they want to get exempt the payroll tax.
And they also want to exempt union dues.
They want to make those tax-deductible.
So they want to give a big sweetheart kiss to the unions and the media.
Gee, why do you think they'd want to do those two groups?
Oh, yeah, they're the ones who made the election possible.
Unbelievable.
This is just graft.
It's graft.
UPS,
the USPS, I should say, is launching a banking service.
They've done such a great job at the mission.
I know, I know.
They want the United States Postal Service now to be a place where you can cash your payroll check or your business checks, and you can keep money on deposit with the U.S.
Postal Service.
This goes right hand in hand with,
what's her name, Saul Amarova?
Right.
I was just going to mention that.
yes yes to tell people about her to moscow she's the one who went to moscow state university right right and born under the soviet union yeah i mean we we you know sometimes say you know the the lefts the leftists are socialists this woman isn't a socialist she's a communist
she she praised she wants the government i'm not folks we're not making this up she wants the government to take over the banking industry in america and she wants the government to take over the financial industry in America.
And so the politicians are going to make all the decisions about who can get a loan.
And did you see, by the way, in this bill, this horrible bill, if you have a financial transaction of more than $600,000.
They change it to $1,000.
Change it to $1,000.
Oh, okay.
I'm a little behind that.
Is it $1,000 or $10,000?
$10,000.
They've moved it to.
That's most people's paychecks, for goodness sake.
Your mortgage payment.
This is why they want to hire 75,000 new IRS agents so they can keep track of everything we're doing.
And by the way, who do you think they're going to be tracking?
Do you think they're going to be tracking liberal Democratic voters?
No, remember the name Lois Lerner?
Remember her?
Yep.
She was the one who weaponized the IRS under Obama.
What did she do?
She went after any conservative group or any conservative donor.
That's what they imagine what they can do with 75,000 new agents.
So, where is your
ray of sunshine that you usually leave me with?
Because I think the American people are revolting against this.
I just see it every day that nobody voted for this.
Do you think people went to
the polls
in November and the people who voted for Biden did so because they wanted $10 trillion of new spending and debt?
I don't recall that.
I mean, so there's no mandate for this.
You know,
Biden says, oh, we're going to be like the FDR.
We're going to, you know, have a new New Deal.
And when FDR won, he won the biggest landslide election in American history, right?
He had a mandate.
This president, some people don't even think he won the election.
I don't know if he did or didn't, but the point is it was a razor-thin margin.
The Democrats have 50 senators out of 100, and they have a four-seat majority out of 435 in the House.
There's no voter man.
There's no mandate from the people to do this.
The American people don't want it.
I think we're going to rise up and we're going going to defeat this.
I really do.
All right.
Give me the web address where people can join your efforts.
Well, the best thing to do is just get our daily hotline.
I hope you get it, Glenn.
If you don't, you know, please get in touch with me.
But we put out a daily hotline every day.
You can read it five minutes.
It just has the five or six bullet points and the talking points every day about what's going on with this bill.
Just go to the committee to unleash prosperity.com and sign up.
And by the way, I'm not selling you anything.
Unlike Joe Biden, I'm telling you you the truth.
It's free.
It doesn't cost anything.
But just sign up for that.
Okay.
I will sign up for it.
I didn't know about it.
I will sign up for it.
Thank you so much, Stephen.
Appreciate it.
Okay, Glenn.
You bet.

So
anybody else besides me, are you noticing that shelves are starting to empty out?
Have you been able to find everything that you wanted, even in the grocery store?
I've seen pictures of our grocery stores now that I haven't seen since we were showing pictures of the former Soviet Union.
It's crazy.
It is truly crazy.
There's that famous story of one of the leaders in the Soviet Union coming across and
being blown away.
Was it Gorbachev that came across before he was leading and he went to a grocery store and was just like, maybe it was Yeltsin, I can't remember.
It was one of the two.
And just blown away by all the stuff that was on the shelves and helped make them transform the economy or at least attempt it.
It's an amazing thing.
You know, when you have a centrally controlled government,
that is exactly what happens.
And this is where we're going.
Be prepared, please.

So, Hunter Biden had a showing of his art
in Hollywood.
Glenn loves it.
This guy has off the air, has been raving about what an incredible artist Hunter Biden is.
Yeah.
No.
Well, I would say.
Well, first of all, let me just say this.
It's not his art.
It's not his art.
He's a crackhead.
It's not his art.
Wait, do you know this for a fact?
Are you just.
No, I'm just speculating.
Not his art.
First of all, crackheads can't spend that much time putting all those little dots in a row.
It would take a long time
to
do this.
But it does look like professional-level art, would you say?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I think some of it, I mean, some of it is crappy, but he's got one of a bluebird or something, and it's spectacular.
It is really beautiful.
No way he did that.
No way.
That is a pretty good scam, though, right?
You hire a good good artist
and then you have a celebrity name.
Yeah.
You kind of just attach it.
Yeah.
And then that would be what I'd like to call unethical.
Oh, I know Hunter's very concerned about his ethical art production.
Yeah.
Well,
if you're saying this is better than his usual scams,
like I can't speak any Ukrainian, but I'm going to be on the board of directors.
And I have no experience in oil and gas.
Right.
That's what I'm going to be speaking about in English.
Yeah.
It's better than impregnating random strippers all throughout the southeast of the country.
Just seeing the little bits of him,
he just seems like an artist at heart, doesn't he?
He does.
He does.
He does.
Well, I mean, look, there are crazy
artists are known to be nuts.
Yes.
Yes.
Now, this doesn't explain any of his previous corruption, but what if these are his?
Are you going to, would you give him credit?
Would you buy one?
If he, no, I would not buy one, but if he actually, if you could show me that he actually did these, I would have to say, based on just this one painting of the bird,
I'd have to say, good job.
Really nice.
Nice.
Some of his others, I think, are crap.
I don't like them.
But none of them look like...
Crap, crap.
Nice.
Nice.
Two of them are nice out of the five that I've seen.
I will say, like, if I tried to have an art show, it would be terrible, right?
Terrible.
And what, what, Joe, what I expected Hunter Biden, his efforts to actually be, I kind of expected them to look amateurish.
And those, I mean, I'm not a big,
I mean, I'm not, I'm not, I am not a bad person.
Some of them are amateurists.
They do amateurists.
This does not.
The birds do not.
But that makes me think maybe they're real.
Like, maybe he, maybe he had a couple of bad ones and a couple of good ones, and maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe.
You know?
It's still a scam.
Oh, it's definitely a scam.
It's still a scam.
There's, I mean,
art is just the easiest way to launder money.
It is.
It is all in the credible.
Yeah, it's all in the eye of the beholder.
What is it worth?
Whatever somebody will pay for it.
So, I mean, did you hear about the
artist in, where was it, Denmark?
that sold, they said, do anything.
We just wanted to make a statement to a gallery.
And I don't know how many millions he sold his commission for, but
he delivered two paintings exactly as the contract required,
and very controversial.
They were blank canvases.
It was called Take the Money and Run, I believe.
Yes.
Was actually the name of the painting.
Yeah.
Which is, he did the job, I guess, right?
Right.
That's the job.
That's art.
How are you going to, what are you going to do?
That's art.
That's art.
What they were going to do is to make sure he gave the money back there i'm sure they are
but uh you know you want to launder money that would be the way to do it you want to get money for your dad or for you just have somebody paint some paintings for you i mean if he did them i stand corrected and willing to say he's a great artist at least based on these two um but uh yeah i don't think so i don't think so money laundering scheme this is the glenn Beck program.
There are many things that we have to do to
save our society, and one of those things is return to the things that have eternal truths, the scriptures, the covenant,
to return to the Old Testament and the New Testament.
Right now, a good friend of mine, Andrew Clavin, is an amazing screenwriter.
I think he's...
been nominated for an Oscar for that.
But
he is writing now something called The Covenant.
It's a multi-seasons TV series adaptation of the stories of the Old Testament.
And it will use biblical and historic texts to lead viewers through the stories of the patriarch, the prophets, the saints, the sinners, the conquerors, the kings.
And it will show God's connection back then and God's connection to humanity today.
They're looking for people who would like to invest in this.
If you would like to invest in this project, go to kotv.com slash beck.
That's c a y o t v dot com slash beck.
Invest in the covenant.
It's kotv.com slash beck.
Do it now.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback Program.
The United States government is sending the people a very clear message.
Don't get get out of line.
Don't protest.
Don't come to our school board meetings and speak your mind.
You play by our rules or we'll get you.
Now
they are going to use the FBI to go after parents because parents are being terroristic.
Oh my gosh.
Wow, do we need to stand up?
I want to go through this story with somebody who's been fighting this for a very, very long time.
In fact, she's the one that got her Supreme Court case and paved the way for a ruling that freed all public sector employees from forced unionism.
That is, they're working hard to reverse that.
She's also the author of Standing Up to Goliath.
She's been fighting this forever.
I want to get her opinion on what the federal government and Justice Department did yesterday, empowering the FBI to help out the school board members so nobody harasses them.
And you learn your lesson.
Rebecca Friedrichs in 60 Seconds.
All right.
We're fighting over the debt ceiling again.
Yay!
And it's those Republicans.
No, it's not.
Tell the truth.
It's not the Republicans.
The Democrats could pass it on their own if they didn't want to also pass the $3.5 trillion
spending bill.
They can't do both, so what are you going to do?
If they really believe this is a ticking time bomb, they can pass it, but they don't want to.
They want to make sure that Republicans are roped into this thing.
JPMorgan, by the way, is actively preparing for U.S.
credit default in the near future.
So let me ask you, are you preparing?
What do they know that you don't know?
I urge you call Goldline today about investing in precious metals.
You know, this is the month of Halloween, and there's nothing scarier than the U.S.
financial markets right now.
Not being prepared perhaps is a little scarier.
Goldline is offering a free maple flex silver bar.
These are the little pieces of bar that I actually had them make this, the Canadian mint.
I asked them to make this with Goldline so you could take it and your kids could get, you know, out of town or get to some place safe.
God forbid, there was a breakdown in society because credit cards on September 11th didn't work.
Nothing worked.
Nothing could, you know, who's carrying around that much cash?
Well, you can with a Maple Flex bar.
Goldline is offering a free Maple Flex silver bar with qualifying purchase of $5 Gold Indians this week only.
Supplies are extremely limited, so don't wait.
Call 866 GoldLine.
That's 866Goldline or go to goldline.com.
The founder and president of Kids and Country and the author of Standing Up to Goliath, welcome back to the program, Rebecca Friedrichs.
How are you, Rebecca?
Hey, it's great to be here.
Excuse my scratchy throat.
Yeah, no, not a problem.
So this is the craziest story I have heard.
The
NSBA, which you're going to have to explain to me,
I know they represent the school boards, but are they kind of like a union?
But
the NSBA has asked Joe Biden for protection for the school boards from the FBI.
And he gave it to them yesterday.
Tell me about this.
Well, this is absolutely disgusting.
It's an attack on our constitutional freedoms and it's the government weaponizing itself against taxpayers, against parents who are trying to protect their children.
So I'll answer your first question.
The National School Boards Association is a union.
It's a union for school board members and the NSBA claims to represent 90,000 school board members, but that's not true.
Many board members are coerced into joining this union and some school districts even pay the fees for membership with our tax dollars.
So these school board members are just kind of stuck in there.
Every school board member I know who's ever attended an NSBA meeting has been shocked by the leftist agenda that's being pushed.
It's exactly that of the teachers unions.
So the teachers' unions and all their pals
in the administrators association, school board association, library association, even the PTA, they're all pushing this same radical agenda.
And it's no surprise to me at all that the Biden administration is doing the bidding of these unions because these unions give you know multiple millions and billions to uh the candidates who will do their bidding so uh that's what's going on here and america needs to wake up um you know we're in the middle of a communist takeover in this country and the unions are the ones behind it they're the ones funding it and pushing it and uh using our uh you know elected officials to get this done
uh that's uh quite a statement, but I agree with you.
We are in the midst.
I think we are in a revolution.
One side is is aware of it, and the other side wants to just keep their head buried in the sand.
But so, so, what does this mean?
Merrick yesterday said coordination and partnership with local law enforcement is critical to implementing these measures for the benefit of our nation's nearly 14,000 public school districts.
To this end, I'm directing the Federal Bureau of Investigation working with each of the United States attorneys to convene meetings with federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial leaders in each federal judicial district within 30 days.
These meetings will facilitate the discussions of strategies for addressing these threats.
Are school boards getting a lot of threats like that?
I mean, what's happening?
Wow.
You know, this is terrifying.
In fact, what it is, is it's gaslighting.
So the school board, the school board association is claiming that parents are doing precisely what the unions and school board associations have been doing to the rest of us for years.
So they've been bullying us, these unions, the school board associations.
If you're an honest, hardworking
school board member, you could easily be chased out of office by a union.
If you're a good teacher doing a good job, you're going to be harassed, a good parent.
So what's really going on is they have twisted the narrative, and now they have the government, the DOJ, the FBI, these three-letter agencies that have also been corrupted by these very same unions,
attacking, claiming they're bringing benefit.
No, parents bring benefit to their children.
Good teachers bring benefit.
These corrupt unions and school board associations bring zero benefit.
They are the threat, but they're flipping it and claiming that we're the threat.
This is frightening.
And
like I said before, America really needs to awaken.
And earlier I mentioned this communist takeover.
Well, I would just like people to know there were some goals of the Communist Party to take over our country.
They were read into our congressional record in 1963.
And goal 17 says, get get control of the schools.
Use them as transmission belts for socialism and communist propaganda.
Soften the curriculum.
Get control of the teacher associations.
Put the party line in the textbook.
We're just watching this come to fruition.
They got control of the school board associations as well, and most other government unions in our country.
So it's not only the FBI that's coming after people.
Biden is, I guess, going to use the Postal Service to intervene against threatening letters and cyberbullying attacks.
See what I mean?
So the Post Office is controlled by unions too.
So, okay, let's backdate election paperwork.
Let's use the Post Office to harass people and to deny them of their freedom of speech to send a letter through the postal system.
This is out of control.
This is the weaponizing of the government against the people.
And we, the people, we, the people, are sovereign.
We are citizens, which means that we are the leaders.
We are
equal.
And these folks are supposed to be serving us.
They're out of control.
We need to put them back in their place.
So this is going to be a massive fight.
Here is where the rubber meets the road.
I'm really tired of people saying, well, I'm a good teacher and I'm in the teachers' union.
Get out of the teachers' union.
You know, quit the teachers' union.
I know that
people want to change it from the inside and then we'll lose all of our good teachers.
Well, if there isn't a group of teachers that rise up and school board members who see this and go,
I'm not going to be a part of this.
If they don't rise up together,
we're going to lose.
We're going to lose.
You can't stay silent
in your job.
And as a parent, you can't stay silent.
Amen in all capitals, Glenn.
We have been speaking out for so many years, and I agree with, I am a teacher, my husband, 40-year teacher, so I can say this.
If you are a teacher, and you say you're a good teacher, and you're still paying the government unions, you are complicit in evil.
You are complicit in harming children, sexualizing children, harming parents.
If you are a good teacher, leave the union today, and then we'll believe you're a good teacher.
Good teachers must stand up with good parents, parents, with good school board members.
We have something we call adopt a teacher where we ask good parents and others to just get every teacher you know and educate them because most of them have no idea that we won them the right to stop funding unions because the unions passed a bunch of laws to make it illegal for employers to tell people they've been freed from unions.
So please help us to get the work out there.
They can find all the information they need on our website.
It's called forkidsandcountry.org.
And amen, we must stand together.
Things are out of control.
We could have stopped this a long time ago if teachers would have listened and awakened and school board members and others and parents and pastors.
We all need to stand together.
Are you seeing still the groundswell?
Because it seems to have gone quiet a bit.
Yeah, we are seeing the groundswell around critical race theory, which, by the way, in this NSBA letter, they lied and said they're not teaching it in our schools.
Yes, they are.
Yes, they are.
They're implementing it in every subject.
They use tricky wording to try to make it sound like they're not doing that.
But yes, we see a groundswell around CRT, which thank God, but there's so many other problems in our schools.
What we don't see a groundswell around is people awakening to the fact that the root cause of every single branch issue you are fighting is the teacher unions and their communist agenda and the other government unions.
We have to awaken people to stop thinking their government union is their friend.
Their government union is destroying them, their profession.
They will destroy your pension that they've promised you at some point if we fall to communism.
So people have to awaken.
Stop trusting these government unions.
If we can
get them out, take away their power, we could fix all these problems.
Rebecca, thank you so much.
I appreciate everything that you've done.
She's the author of Standing Up to Goliath.
She's been standing up to Goliath for a very long time.
She was a teacher for 28 years.
She's also the founder and president for Kids and Country.
You can find her at the website forkidsandcountry.org.
If you are somebody that wants to stand up in your community, if you're a parent, you must stand up for your community.
Go to forkidsandcountry.org.
If you are a teacher and
you are one of those teachers, you're like, I am not the bad guy here.
As Rebecca said, and I echo, the time for being in bed or one foot in each side of the threshold is way gone.
You are either in bed with these labor unions and you're contributing to them and you're supporting by just being another number on their sheet.
You're either with them and against the parents or you're with the parents against the unions.
But these labor unions have got to be stopped.
They are the poison that is in our system.
And the FBI now treating parents as terrorists should terrify every single American that said, I'm not doing anything wrong.
Why does it matter to me?
Because if you don't now agree with what is in your school, you're going to be labeled a terrorist.
We must stand together.
Rebecca, thank you so much.
God bless.
Thank you.
Gosh, it'd be nice if we could get mobile phone service from a company that gave you the same great service as the you know all the big carriers and then didn't charge you an arm and a leg to do it
while we're at it while we're dreaming maybe they could not donate a portion of the bill to leftist causes like planned parenthood wouldn't that be great well yeah and it exists today Patriot Mobile is one of the nation's only Christian mobile companies.
It's on the same cell towers as all the major carriers, so it gets the same great great service, and it's half the cost.
Patriot Mobile has affordable,
customizable plans for any family.
They donate a portion of the bill to conservative causes.
Unlike big mobile companies that are trying to donate to things like Planned Parenthood, Patriot Mobile knows you, and they are just like you.

Wow, this
Facebook whistleblower, she's doing some damage to Facebook, huh?
Wow.
She's testifying in front of the Senate right now, and she's like, boy, a company that
can control your feelings and know your aspirations and
feed you anything.
Boy, they need real oversight.
I'll tell you that right now.
Yeah, of course, this is the way this is going to go, right?
Yeah, yeah.
This is why I'm always skeptical of these plans to go after and come up with these new rules that we're going to put through the government to control these companies.
At the end of the day, we have to realize that if it is up to tech executives or the federal government to manage our free speech, we are not going to have it.
Correct.
Either way.
Correct.
That's why I'm so bullish on things like blockchain and, you know, Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is because this is a way to go around it.
Right.
You don't have to deal with the government.
You don't, they can't get rid of it.
and that's why they don't want it that's why china's out yeah we're in that race right now between you know dc trying to throttle all of this stuff from happening and it exploding into such huge huge portions of the economy that it can't be shut down
and there's a lot of money behind it now may already be impossible to shut down but i hope so they're trying they're going to do everything they can to regulate it
and that regulation will lead to all the things that it was created to defeat.
If you have $100, you should put it in Bitcoin just to support it.
Just to support it and to grow it.
It's doing very well.
It's back over 50,000, by the way.
I don't know.
Is it really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Gosh, it just keeps going.
I mean, China has about 20% of the world's population, and they just banned all transactions in the country, and it's up.
Well, but you, I mean, it's like a Swiss bank account.
You know what I mean?
If you are worried that you're, you know, think like a German, you're worried that the government is coming for your stuff,
go to a neutral country and put your stuff in that bank.
And that's what people did during World War II.
That's kind of what's happening with Bitcoin.
You know, part of it is
the, you know, the next generation.
This is the next generation's gold.
I don't know how it works out compared to gold because it's physical,
but uh, I don't know, um,
but this is this is what people instead of putting it into gold, people have been putting it into Bitcoin, and they're hoping because you can actually trade with Bitcoin
that it'll somehow or another miss all of these governments.
But I'm, I'm telling you, look at what they're doing.
The postal service is going to be a bank,
excuse me,
the postal service
they do everything else so well.
I don't know.
Right.
I want their banking system.
Good heavens.
With all the stuff that is coming with our financial world, I mean,
you know, for the first time in your life, you kind of go, Switzerland is so far away.
Can you?
You have online banking?
I mean, really?
What do you do?
What do you do?
If you don't trust the financial system of your own country,
I'd love to hear from people who have relatives in Venezuela.
I'd like to know, what did anybody who made it, 70% are not, or are eating their dogs or on extreme poverty?
That means 30% of the country is left that has something.
What?
They're doing that.
How are they doing it?
Lots of cryptocurrency in Venezuela.
Lots of use there.
You know, it is, it's the way to do it, right?
It's the way to get around it and it's the way to avoid the government.
And it's why, of course, that they're coming after it.
And it's interesting that they're coming after these staple coins first.
I don't know if anyone knows about these, but basically they're just, it's basically a substitute for a dollar, right?
In a way, right?
It's a, it's a cryptocurrency that stays equal to a dollar, right?
So you can put it into USDC or Tether or one of these others, and they'll stay right there.
And the idea is.
People have, it's hard to get in and out of from, you know, fiat currency to cryptocurrency.
This is a bridge.
You can trade trade around or you can keep it stable to the value of the dollar if that's what you want to do with it.
It's easier to transact, and there's lots of reasons why people like them.
But that's the first thing they're going after.
The first thing, and you think, what about stable coins?
Why would anyone, they're not like the most popular.
They want to make it harder and they want to stop people from taking their money out of the banks and putting them into stable coins where they can earn four, five, six, eight percent in interest when they're getting 0.01% from their banks.
And they're worried they're going to cause, it's one thing, you know, cause a run on the banks.
It's one thing to
go into a Bitcoin or one of these other cryptocurrencies where you might see a lot of upside, but you might see downside, and you're worried about the stability of it.
With these stable coins, they're stable.
They're stable.
I mean, you know, I mean, there's always some risk there, but that's what they're trying to stop right now.
It's really remarkable that they actually think of themselves as progressives progressives while they're trying to shut down any kind of new technology or new way of thinking.
I mean, they just shut it down left and right.
You want freedom?
Okay, Bitcoin is the answer.
You want stability?
Okay, government, you should buy into some Bitcoin.
This is the Glenbach program.
Imagine if we would have had that, if we would have bought that 10 years ago.
Somebody in the government was like, we're going to put a million dollars into it.
Imagine we'd have our debt paid for by now.

Stuy, remember the mom in Rhode Island that
just wanted to ask for the curriculum to see if CRT was in the curriculum?
And the
school was like, no, it's too much.
It's too much of a hassle.
She's like, well, wait a minute.
What do you mean it's too much of a hassle?
And
they ended up saying, okay, if you want us to go through this, it's going to be $76,000.
Right.
Okay.
Totally fair amount.
Correct.
And then they sued her
to stop her intimidation.
Now,
now, yesterday, the FBI
has announced that they're going to target parents for harassment and intimidation.
The FBI is going to do this based on what happens at your local school board meetings.
Wow.
So I wanted to get her on the phone.
Her name is Nicole Salas.
And Nicole.
Nicole?
Yes.
Hi.
Hi, Glenn.
I asked my staff this morning, I said,
what is Nicole saying about this?
And they said, well, she's responded in two words.
And those two words are
arrest me.
Now,
I've talked to you before.
You're not some radical.
This is not, this is...
This is out of the usual for you, right?
I mean, you're not somebody that's always protesting and everything else.
No, I mean, I don't think I've ever done a protest.
I'm a stay-at-home mom.
I wanted to know what my kids was learning.
And, you know, six months later, I'm now being targeted by the FBI.
And so is every other parent who has legitimate concerns about what their kids are learning in school.
You know, Garland is trying to frame this in terms of threats of violence by parents.
And that has never been at the forefront of this fight opposing critical race theory indoctrination in school.
Parents
are not intimidating school boards with threats of violence.
We're not being violent.
We're begging for open debate and civil discourse.
And
just to really emphasize that no one tolerates violence.
No one wants that.
It should be noted that if there are any actual threats of violence by parents, that can be handled by local law enforcement because this is not a federal issue.
What we're seeing here is an attempt to politicize federal law enforcement to stifle honest debate, and that should be vehemently opposed.
We cannot let that stifle us because parents shouldn't have to worry about being federally investigated just because they're sharing legitimate concerns about what their children are learning.
Especially at a local level.
I mean,
you're standing in your local school district.
That would require the local police.
And if the police can't handle it, then it's kicked up to the Attorney General, and the Attorney General would turn it over to the state police.
If there was a terroristic threat, it could be kicked up then to the FBI.
This is crazy.
This is making the FBI an agency, it seems to me, an agency or an arm of the unions.
Right, right.
So, you know, what we're seeing here is a much broader political perspective or narrative that's starting to weave.
So parents care about their kids and their kids' education, but now we're seeing story after story of parents clashing with powerful political interests like school districts, politicians, unions, and those political interests, they care about their power, their money, and their political agenda.
And they're going to pull out all the stops to hold on to that power.
And that's why they're lashing out at parents when parents are questioning them and challenging their authority.
So, you know, we see Garland, right, Attorney Garland, he's gathering law enforcement at every level of society, letting everyone know that he's doing it.
And that sends a political message of intimidation to parents around the country.
And this fits in with the teacher union talking point, trying to demonize opposition, trying to cast everybody who doesn't go along with the critical race theory, indoctrination, and union agenda as terrorists, right?
The National School Board Association comes out and says, now, you know, parents like me are domestic terrorists.
And, you know, in the beginning of this, they were calling people like me fascists.
Then they call you racist.
Now we're terrorists.
And it's like they're running out of magic words to call you.
Well, and these accusations aren't enough, right?
Now the FBI has to come after you.
Right.
The terrorist one, as we have said for a million years now, it seems, the Patriot Act was the biggest mistake of all time
because all you have to do is change the definition of a terrorist.
Um, and they are labeling people now terrorists.
That's why this has to be a terrorist uh activity in Washington, D.C.
on January 6th.
Uh if it was, it's the worst terrorist act of all time.
Um
this this with the parents, the only thing that would beat January 6th as a terrorist event would be the school board meetings in our local areas because those are really crappy terrorists.
They're not doing anything except talking.
But
that's why they're bringing that charge and labeling people now terrorists because that has legal teeth in it.
Patriotism.
Yes.
And, you know,
and in Rhode Island, someone just sent me a response to an OMA complaint that was filed where the school board called parents opposing critical race theory.
They called them January 6th terrorists.
I mean,
any opposition they have, it's terrorists, it's insurrectionists.
You can't even, you know, challenge them without them trying to destroy you.
And the other really interesting thing is
the Department of Justice and the FBI are concerned about this, quote, terrorist activity by parents
only to a limited people.
And those are people who disagree with the Biden agenda.
Where are their task forces and multi-level law enforcement meetings to address, oh, I don't know, protesters who chase senators into bathrooms or people who disrupt congressional hearings, or how about school boards who try to intimidate parents?
So they are being very selective in who they label terrorists.
Any thought of moving to a rational state?
You know, I actually do think about it every day.
Florida is looking better and better.
But I don't know if that is going to win this ideological war because that's really what's happening right now.
You know, like, you know, what they're doing to parents now is consistent with the ideological courage in the military.
This is now a complete weaponization of the federal government against ideological opponents.
If you move to another state where they aren't targeting you this way,
maybe you'll buy yourself some peace, you know, some limited amount of time of peace, but who's to say that that's really the long-term answer for parents that don't want to run away from this fight?
We want to win it.
How do you,
I don't know, what line was crossed that makes you this individual?
Because a lot of parents,
they may be upset, but then they're not really vigilant like you are.
And they're not willing to say, come arrest me.
I mean, that's big words.
And I believe you mean that.
I really don't know.
I think that parents need to tap into the fighter in them.
Everyone has a fighter in them when it comes to their kids.
And
I think some people are scared of fighting, at least as loudly as I am and as other parents I know are.
But if I don't do this, I'm just sick to my stomach.
I just can't exist in a world where the government is targeting and harassing me and I'm paying them to do it because I'm setting up a world where then my children are going to be in that position with their own children.
So
I think we just need to keep a broader political perspective on what's happening that yes, we're fighting for our kids and our education, but we're really fighting for a country that is not going to be oppressive for our children when they're grown up.
What do you say to the parents that have kids in school and their kids are saying, please, mom and dad, please don't do this.
I'm going to get hammered in school.
You fight back every time they're hammered in school.
No one is coming out of this unscathed.
I can't make any promises that your kids aren't going to be affected, but I can promise that if you do nothing, and if you do nothing because, you know, your kids just, they don't want to be
affected by this.
And of course, we don't want them affected by this.
We want to shield them.
But if you do nothing, it's going to be worse than if you did something.
So we're not coming out of this unscathed.
The worst thing you can do is nothing.
The best thing you can do is protect your kids every step of that way.
And every time you hear that your kid is being targeted, you respond to that too.
Don't stick your head in the sand.
I really admire you.
I think you are a great mom and a great American.
And we'll continue to pray for you.
And God bless.
God bless.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Glenn.
You bet.
There are very few people that are that brave.

Let me tell you about about real estate agents I trust.
This is a service for anybody who is buying or selling a home.
You're probably,
if you've ever done it before, probably very well aware of a phenomenon every now and then.
And you just stop and look up at the ceiling and just say, could I have a day where something is going to go right?
Yeah.
Brother, it is so frustrating playing around in the real estate game.
Half the time,
you don't even know what to do.
You don't know what you don't know.
That's when it comes to picking a real estate agent.
You need someone who is not only going to be able to guide you through the best practices, but also
is somebody that you can call up and say, okay, I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to do here.
Or I know you said that maybe I should fix the flower beds.
Do you know anybody that does that?
These people are on your team.
You need an agent from Real Estate Agents I Trust.
This is a company of mine, and we work only with the very best of the best.
And I want to hear about your experiences with Real Estate Agents I Trust.
Real Estate Agents I Trust.com.
We're not a company.
They don't work for me.
What they do is we go out, they apply, and we go out and we look at them.
We look at their track record.
And if we feel that they fit our team, then we'll recommend them to you for free.
All you have to do is go to realestate I Trust.com.

The Glenn Beck Program.
You know, we don't thank you nearly enough.
Ten years ago, ten years ago, I suggested that we start Mercury One.
And Mercury One was going to be something that would make us more independent and make sure that we were still feeling charitable to all of our fellow citizens.
If there was a disaster, we would be there.
And we would not be looking to some federal agency, even Mercury One, that we would unite under local people and find the local people that are actually making a difference and support them.
That's what we've done.
Then I told you that we wanted to begin a vault, a museum, if you will.
And in the 10
years that we have been putting this together at Mercury One, we now have the largest collection of Jamestown and pilgrim documents and artifacts in the world.
We have the third largest collection of American founding documents
and were only surpassed by the National Archives and the Library of Congress.
And we have things that you've never seen before.
And we are now building a way for you to be able to share these things with your kids.
We're currently digitizing everything as fast as we possibly can.
I started the Nazarene Fund, and you know how that has gone, not only in Syria,
but also here with Afghanistan.
I'm going to give you an update on that at
our next big event for Mercury One, where I'm going to give you a new plan,
the power of one,
and ask you to do certain things.
And I invite you to be there.
Go to mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.org or dot com
and
get your tickets.
It's this Saturday night here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
And I would love to have you there.
David Barton is going to be there along with Tim Barton is going to be talking about history, showing you things you've never seen before.
We have a couple of really great musical groups that are going to just kind of party after all the work is done.
Danny Gorky and Colton Dixon are going to be performing live.
This is part of their concert tours.
And we would love to see you there.
Again, it's the power of one.
It happens this Saturday night, mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.com.
I've been working on this
plan and this speech for several weeks now, probably five weeks.
The only other thing I've worked on this long, I think, has been in
Jerusalem.
This is a really important
event, and we would love to have you there.
All of the proceeds go to Benefit Mercury One, so we can keep our lights on.
This is our yearly event.
Make sure you join us if you can this Saturday night, mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.com.
So you're going to work on this speech all the way up to the event, and then how long before the event will you rip it up and just completely do something different?
What's your plan on that?
That's when you write it.
Oh, that's when you write it too.
You constantly write your own speeches and then get up to the podium and be like, you know what?
I don't, I don't know.
I was gonna
talk to you from the heart.
And then you get like, and then you know, that's when you know it's like Fidel Castro length speech is coming.
So run for the doors right then.
I don't care how much you donated.
Get out of that building.
Well, I think you're going to enjoy this Saturday night.
Make sure you join us.
Mercury1.org or m1nextchapter.com.
We'll see you there Saturday night.
