don't technically need this car.
You say that out loud to yourself.
You say, I have no space.
You say, eh, I'm just looking.
Then you click.
Then you zoom in on photo number 87 and whisper, oh no.
Then you text a friend, the one who always enables you.
You say to yourself, this is the last one, knowing it is not.
You don't need this car.
But maybe, just maybe, this car needs you.
Bring a trailer.
It's never just a car.
Let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor.
It's Rough Greens.
Got back over the weekend from the Middle East and couldn't wait to see my dog.
My dog was excited, playful.
I've never seen him like this.
Honestly,
his whole life, he has not taken the ball and run with it.
And he is...
constantly like a puppy.
And I think it's Rough Greens.
I mean,
that's when everything changed.
We started sprinkling this supplement on his dog food and he changed.
And it was fun to watch over the last six months.
But he is, you know, over the first six months.
But he's a different dog.
Get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out now.
All you pay for is shipping just to make sure that your dog will eat it.
If they do, if you put it on their food and they eat it, watch the changes that happen in your dog over a six-month period.
It's amazing.

What you were about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glendack program.
Well, we're back in Studio 8H of the Mercury Studios Complex in Dallas, Texas.
I will give you an update on what has happened in the Middle East and what is currently happening in the Middle East.
We begin
with a mother
of one of the fallen Marines.
We do that in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck program.
Paul wrote in recently about his experience working with American Financing.
He says, I don't think I could get a better rate than my then current and already very low rate.
But I kept hearing Glenn Beck talk about it over and over again, about how great American financing is.
So we made an appointment.
The rest is history.
We took a year off of our mortgage and we saved a few hundred dollars on our monthly mortgage payment.
Thank you, Glenn.
Thank you, American Financing.
Paul, you are more than welcome.
I am glad that you made the call.
Even though you didn't think it was going to work for you, that's what many people think.
You should call American Financing right now and see if you could save 100, 200, as Paul said, a few hundred, up to $1,000 a month.
It's 800-906-2440.
That's the number to call right now.
800-906-2440.
It's American Financing.

There was a phone call that
came in to Andrew Wilkow.
It
is from a mother
who lost her son.
Her name is Kathy McCollum.
Riley was her 20-year-old son.
She was obviously very upset.
She had just learned the news, and she picked up the phone and called Andrew Wilkow, and here's what happened.
Cut 25.
Colorado, you're on the Wilkow majority.
Hello.
Hey, my son was one of the Marines that died yesterday.
And go listen to that.
Sorry, I'm on the radio.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
My son was one of the Marines that died yesterday.
20 years and six months old, getting ready to come home from freaking Jordan to be with his wife to watch the birth birth of his son.
And that feckless, dementia-ridden piece of crap just sent my son to die.
I woke up at 4 o'clock this morning to Marines at my door telling me my son was dead.
So
to have her on right before me and listen to that piece of crap.
Talk about diplomatic crap with freaking Taliban terrorists who just freaking blew up my son and know nothing to not say anything about, oh my God, I'm so sorry for the families.
So my son is gone,
and I just want all you Democrats who cheated in the election or who voted for him legitimately, you just killed my son
with a dementia-ridden piece of crap who doesn't even know he's in the White House.
He still thinks he's a senator.
So
I'm going to try and calm down.
I'm sorry.
No, you...
Look, I.
You could imagine just a few hours after hearing that your son was dead
that you would
be
quite angry and emotional.
And I'm guessing that Kathy is still
very angry.
We hope to have her on by the end of the program today.
There were vigils all over the country over the weekend for these fallen Marines.
And
none of it had to happen.
I don't know if you saw the Washington Post, the fall of Kabul.
It is absolutely incredible
how clueless everyone was.
From the Washington Post, this account of Kabul's fall, the climactic moment of America's longest war, is based on nearly two dozen interviews with U.S.
and Afghan officials.
In both Washington and Kabul, the days and weeks leading up to the fall were marked by complacency.
The United States was withdrawing its forces.
The Taliban was notching gains.
But the prevailing view in both capitals was that there was still plenty of time before the insurgents might take over a city of nearly 5 million people that had long been the nerve center of America's presence in the country.
President Ghani exuded that belief, according to Afghan and U.S.
officials who, like others for the story, spoke on the condition of amenity to discuss sensitive matters.
But reports from the field suggest that in some cases, Afghan government forces were not fighting at all.
When the Taliban advanced on key border crossings with Iran, in late June and early July, government forces abandoned their posts.
The young Western educated official who served as Ghani's national security advisor but who had scant experience in military or security affairs told others the government forces would soon retake them.
But no significant efforts ever materialized.
As the Taliban continued to accumulate gains, the American officials began to see the president's confidence as delusion.
Then, Gandhi's lack of focus on the threat that the Taliban posed mystified U.S.
officials, in particular, Marine General Kenneth Frank McKenzie, head of the U.S.
Central Command, and Ambassador Ross Wilson.
In a meeting with Gandhi in Kabul in July, the two men told the Afghan president that his team needed a realistic, implementable, and widely supported plan to defend the country and had to drop the idea of defending all 34 provincial capitals.
They had to focus on what they could actually defend.
All provinces are important, but some were more important to the defense of Kabul.
Ghani appeared to agree, but there would be no follow-through, and that seemed to be the case on all parts.
They talk about how it was beginning to fall, the provincial capitals fell.
On August 6th,
two dozen others,
over nine days, two dozen other cities would fall.
And Gandhi, I mean not Gandhi, Ghani would want to talk about
digitization of money.
Isn't that interesting that that's what he was focused on?
Was the new digital money?
An official who knew the president's plan for government salary payment system, it had had nothing to do with the dire threat, he said.
As late as Saturday afternoon before Kabul fell, Ghani did not suggest any urgency around the
departure arrangements or the safety of senior staff.
Receiving one advisor in the palace gardens and speaking in his characteristic soft tones, he made arrangements to shore up the country's economy.
He was supposed to address the nation later that night, but he never did.
Americans, meanwhile, were suffering from their own delusions.
In June, U.S.
intelligence agencies had assessed that the Afghan government would hang on for at least another six months.
By August, the dominant view was the Taliban wasn't likely to pose a serious threat to Kabul until at least the late fall.
So now, if this is correct, this is a massive, massive failure of the intelligence department once again.
How are our intelligence agencies this wrong?
American officials may have been urging Ghani to show greater urgency, but their own actions suggested no immediate cause for alarm.
With the officials surrendering to the customary rhythms of Washington in August, on the Friday afternoon before Kabul fell, the White House was starting to empty out as many of the senior staff prepared to take their first vacations of Biden's young presidency.
Earlier in the day, Biden had arrived at Camp David and Secretary of State Anthony Blinken was already in the Hamptons.
By Saturday,
the fall of one city
to
Taliban forces
convinced U.S.
officials that they needed to scramble.
How quickly was a subject of dispute between the Pentagon and State Department.
So they couldn't decide on should we scramble really fast or kind of fast.
In a conference call with Biden and his top security aides, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin called for the immediate relocation of all U.S.
Embassy personnel to the Kabul airport.
Wilson's embassy colleagues had been racing to destroy classified documents and equipment in the compound since Friday.
An internal memo obtained by the Washington Post implored staff to destroy sensitive materials using incinerators,
disinfinerators, what is that?
Disintegrat integrators.
What is that?
Have you ever heard of that?
And burn bins.
The directive also called for the destruction of American flags or items that could be misused in propaganda efforts.
Wilson said U.S.
personnel needed more time to complete their work, but Austin insisted time had run out.
Saturday evening, Kabul time, Ghani and Blinken spoke by phone, hoping to avert a showdown in the capital.
Blinken sought Ghani's support for a U.S.-brokered arrangement with the Taliban, in which the militants would remain outside of Kabul if the Afghan leader would step aside as an interim government took charge.
The aim, said a senior U.S.
official, was to buy time for negotiations aimed at forming an inclusive government that involved the Taliban as well as others.
The president reluctantly agreed.
Taliban insurgents captured key eastern Afghanistan city of
Jahalabad without a fight on July 15th when the news that Kabul
the news that Kabul woke up to Sunday morning was ominous.
The overnight
fall of Jahalabad had left the capital isolated.
Many shops remained shuttered and people stayed home from work.
This just
collapsed so quickly and no one was paying paying attention to it.
Everyone was taken by surprise.
How?
I don't know.
Everybody started leaving that morning
to head to the airport.
The
palace or the seat of government for President Ghani,
he was told that he needed to get out fast.
They said that the Taliban was inside the palace looking for him and he was going to die.
If he didn't get out, it'll either be you, your palace guards, or the Taliban.
But if you stay, you will be killed.
The president wanted to return home to gather his belongings, but told by advisors there wasn't any time.
Earlier that afternoon, wearing plastic sandals and a thin coat, the president, along with the first lady and a handful of top aides, lifted off the palace grounds in military helicopters.
They flew out.
They landed in Ubekistan.
From there they boarded a small plane bound for the UAE.
Gandhi aides, Ghani aides, who had not been part of the hasty evacuation, returned from lunch to find out that the president was just gone, his office empty.
It goes on in this story to say he never called anyone.
At any time.
At any time.
He never called the vice president.
He never did anything.
While he was on the helicopter, no calls.
When he landed, no calls,
nothing.
He just left.
That's when the Taliban
called
us.
And the Taliban said, we're at the edge of the city.
And you either need to step in and fill the vacuum and get control of the city because it's in chaos, or we will.
Biden's White House said go for it
we didn't take a deal offered by the stinking Taliban to take control of the city to hold the city in place and because of that the Taliban came in with our permission And that's when the whole thing melted down.
That's when thousands of people rushed to the airport.
They gave us the choice.
Do you want to control the city or do you want to control the airport until August 31st?
We said the airport.
We chose the airport.
Now they're saying only 240 Americans are left.
That is a lie.
That is a lie.
I have more than 240 requests from people coming into our email that are saying, please, can you help us get out?
It's a lie.
Well, they are saying, Glenn, there's only 240 who want to leave.
Yeah, the others just are leaving
to Taliban rule.
Should I forward the emails?
Or do you think the list of those people will be falling into the hands of the Taliban so they can be rounded up and killed as well?
It's sick.
Not in my entire life
that that I know of did our country openly
openly take the wrong side
we have done things that we later find out that we don't like but I have never seen our country openly do things
that was on the wrong side
in this in the civil rights movement I saw states
and I saw local police do things that
were on the wrong side.
But never have I seen our federal government openly
do that.
It's sick.
More in a minute.
First, let me tell you about Rita.
She lives in Florida.
She writes in to talk about her dog's experience with Rough Greens.
She says, my dog Timmy's liquid heart medication is added to his prescription dog food.
Oh boy, doesn't that sound good.
So as you can imagine, it's critical that he eats, but he's lost interest in food after another sweet older dog of ours passed away.
That is so hard.
I have seen that with my dog too.
They lose the will to just go on.
I decided to try Rough Greens, and I'm happy I did.
With Rough Greens stirred into his food, Timmy was not only interested in eating again, he also wanted to go for a walk and play with his toys, even chase squirrels again.
Thank you so much, Rough Greens.
Rita, that's the best story I've heard for a long time.
I'm so happy that Timmy is eating again and acting like himself.
You can get a free bag of rough greens for your dog just to try out, just to see if they will eat it.
All you pay for is shipping.
Then, if they do eat it, then order a bag of a full bag of rough greens at roughgreens.com/slash back
and watch, watch the difference in your dog over a couple of months.
It's pretty amazing.

So
did you see the president, the video?
Do we happen to have the video of the president possibly falling asleep with the ambassador from Israel?
Have you seen that, Stu?
Yet another chapter in the beautiful story of the friendship between our two nations, the United States of America and the Jewish and Democratic State of Israel.
Both of us who seek to do good and need to be strong.
Both of us
who are.
Hey, yeah, he looks like he's asleep.
He does move his finger at one point.
Ah, okay.
That's more than I expect out of him in a typical press conference.
Yeah.
So I guess that's a positive.
Okay.
So did you see the picture of him checking his watch yesterday
with his hand on his heart
as
the remains of the fallen service members come into Dover?
He looks at his watch.
We have that picture?
There it is.
Have you.
Which one's worse?
Which one's worse?
Falling asleep for the ambassador or looking at his watch?
You know, this is the time
a nation needs a president who's able to stay awake.
This is the type of time where you, when you go through your choice at the polls.
Pretty high standards.
You think if this sort of situation occurs, I would adore a president who is able to stay awake during daylight hours.
Who's going to take the phone call at 3 a.m.?
Or 3 p.m.
for Nini Linux case?
Yeah.
Noon?
Yeah.
10 o'clock in the morning.
Anytime, really.
Who's going to take the phone call anytime?
You know, it's also,
have you ever seen the president and the vice president hidden away as much as he and Kamala are?
No.
people keep saying, where is he?
And it's a real question.
At times, it feels like we don't have a president at all.
Right.
And I think it feels to me like Kamala is like, I don't want to be in any of these camera shots.
I don't want to be associated with this at all.
I didn't know last week.
She was just gone.
Yeah.
She's just trying to stay out of the limelight, hoping that the stink from Biden doesn't reach her, which I don't know if that's possible, but that's what I think she's attempting to do.
Again, anytime you want to analyze an action from Kamala Harris, you just need to wind up thinking like she's always thinking about what makes her situation better.
So she's always thinking about herself.
That's always number one to Kamala Harris.
So, what is she doing?
That's not true.
Is that true, Kamala?
Really?
No, it's not.
Oh, my gosh.
Which is worse?
President Snooze a lot
or
Kamala Harris.
Kamala, which one is?
You don't want to answer that.
No, of course.
Back in a minute.
This is the Glenback Program.
So you may not think that disastrous situations could happen even for American citizens.
No, that's it.

Back from the Middle East.
I came in on Saturday.
Wow, there's nothing like flying to the other side of the planet for a couple of days and then flying back.
Oh, it's good.
It's good on the body.
It's good on the body.
Really good on the body.
But
we're not going to be saying much
for the next few days
because the airport is is officially closed now.
Only the military side is getting anybody out.
The commercial side is completely gone.
There are about 12,000 refugees that
groups like
Mighty Oaks Foundation.
the Nazarene Fund and others have been working to get out.
Together, we have taken 12,000 people out just
arriving in two airports.
That's quite a good number for something that is absolutely impossible to do.
Do not take our blackout as anything other than
we're keeping our mouths shut because we know that the Taliban is
monitoring groups like ours for additional information.
They are actively searching for people.
They are now, you know, the good thing is they're in bed with the Russians and the Chinese.
So that always is going to be good.
They are now monitoring phones and tracking phones.
If you know someone in the Middle East in this situation, please tell them to turn their phones off.
Turn your phone off.
If you need to, use
passwords with each other so you know who you're talking to.
And
pick maybe an hour a day that you're going to use your phone, but turn it off.
Turn it off.
Okay.
Other than that, things were great.
Things are great.
Hopefully we'll have a really exciting announcement coming this week, perhaps this week.
We'll tell you, pretty much we'll tell you when we're there.
But please keep people in your prayers.
There are thousands that are in hiding and want to get out.
Many Americans.
Yeah,
the figure I keep hearing on Fox and elsewhere is 250.
I can't believe there's only 250 Americans left.
There's not.
Because the original estimate was between 10 and and 40,000.
And so far,
the number I just heard is 120,000 people we've evacuated, and 5,400 of them were American.
5,400?
Well, then there are thousands of people left behind.
And there are really bad guys that are getting onto the planes.
Really bad guys.
Sure.
Yeah, really bad guys.
Sure.
And I hope that our government is, I mean, those are the people that are coming.
Our 12,000 are not coming to the United States.
I can vouch for 5,100 for sure, because that's the ones we've been partnering with Mighty Oaks Foundation, and they've been getting people in, and they've been using our planes to get them out, and we've been sharing things.
And 5,100 people.
I can vouch are not coming to America.
I don't think any of the private
rescues are going to America unless they're American citizens, but I could be wrong.
But they are just loading up the planes, just loading up the planes on the military side.
And I don't know how they're vetting them.
I don't know.
And they're coming to Texas.
A lot of them are coming here to Texas.
And
I hope we're very, very careful.
Yeah.
Yeah, because it's, you know,
it's a little nerve-wracking coming from a place like Afghanistan with the Taliban.
I think so.
Do you know what they did?
You know, you had to have paperwork.
You had to have paperwork.
So
what the State Department was doing on the military side was they were just handing out blank visas.
So you could just, they were just handing out blank.
Just fill your name in.
Just fill your name in.
It gets you through the gate.
Just fill your name in.
Really?
I'm sure that's not going to be a problem at all.
no what could what could go wrong there do you think
i can't think i can't think of a single thing i can't think of anything either
okay so last week um you had a uh
i think it was a lieutenant colonel of a of the marines come out and speak out demand accountability here's what he said listen to this All of these people are supposed to advise, and I'm not saying we've got to be in the in Afghanistan forever, but I am saying, did any of you throw your rank on the table and say, hey, it's a bad idea to evacuate Bagram airfield, the strategic air base, before we evacuate everyone?
Did anyone do that?
And when you didn't think to do that, did anyone raise their hand and say, we completely messed this up?
I've got battalion commander friends right now that are posting similar things, and they're saying,
you know,
wondering if all the lives were lost and if it was in vain, all those all those people that we've lost over the last 20 years.
And he goes on to say that we're all part of a chain.
While every link may not be tested, the strength of the chain is only as strong as each link, and you got to be a good link.
Something like that.
And what I'll say is,
from my position, potentially all those people did die in vain if we don't have senior leaders that own up and raise their hand and say, We did not do this well in the end.
Without that, we just keep repeating the same mistakes, this amalgamation of the economic/slash corporate slash political slash higher military ranks are not
holding up their end of the bargain.
I want to say this very strongly.
I have been fighting for 17 years.
I am willing to throw it all away to say to my senior leaders, I demand accountability.
Nothing wrong with that, except he's wearing uniform while he did it.
He recognized that was wrong and he has resigned.
And he was given a choice by the military.
You can either
face disciplinary action, it would be about a three-year investigation on him, face disciplinary action, shut your mouth during it,
or resign and you are cut off from all all benefits.
Now, he's been doing this for 20 years.
He's earned all of his benefits.
He,
over the weekend,
put his rank on the table and said, I resign and I want nothing except answers.
Now, his latest video is a little weird.
If you watch the full thing,
and I'm not sure if it's because he feels challenged challenged now and he's trying to puff, you know, puff himself, not himself, but puff up just a bit to say, you're not going to take me out.
Because he is now in a struggle for his life, because he is now saying
he is going to
say things and report things that will take down the corrupt military-industrial complex.
And
you should watch it because I'm not sure
I'm not sure yet how I feel on him.
On this video, I felt great.
Good for you.
That's what we're looking for is somebody who's willing to put their brass down on the table and say, I don't really care what you do.
I just won't do this anymore.
And I want some answers.
And I'll tell the American people that you deserve answers.
Here's a clip of what he said in his latest video.
When I was
And then after he exited the Marine Corps, he's made a lot of controversy by talking about racial diversity and
equal opportunity problems in the Marine Corps.
From that respect, I have adamantly disagreed with him.
But just because we have different opinions doesn't mean I don't respect him,
sir.
I love you like a father.
And you made a comment on one of the posts in LinkedIn without giving anyone context of who you were or what our relationship was.
And you said
if Stuart Scheller was honorable, he would resign his commission.
Of all the noise going out there, that one comment has just played through my head.
If Stuart Scheller was honorable, he would resign his commission.
You didn't say is as if in challenging me, you said was
as if you assumed I wouldn't do it.
I want to make the announcement today.
After 17 years,
I'm currently not pending legal action.
And I could stay in the Marine Corps for another three years,
but I don't think that's the path I'm on.
I'm resigning my commission.
as a United States Marine, effective now.
I'm sure there's some MARA admin on how I'm supposed to do that, and I'll work through that.
But I am forfeiting my retirement on entitlements I don't want a single dollar I don't want any money from the VA I don't want any VA benefits I'm sure I'm entitled to a hundred percent I
you know breathed on the smell and smoke of burning
for years
I don't want any of it
you know I asked
all I asked for was accountability of my senior leaders when there are clear, obvious mistakes that were made.
I'm not saying we can take back what has been done.
All I asked for was accountability, for people to comment on what I said and to say, yes, mistakes were made.
And had they done that, I would have gone back into rank and file, submitted, and accomplished what I wanted.
The morning after I posted my video and I came into work, my boss came in and he asked me, what were you trying to accomplish?
And that was a very tough question for me.
And my response was, I want senior leaders to accept accountability.
I think them accepting accountability would do more for service members and PTSD and struggling with purpose than any other transparent piece of paper or message.
What he said there, I 100% agree with.
100% agree with.
Especially since Biden told us there were no mistakes made.
He didn't make any mistakes.
We all know Biden's mistakes.
I'd like to know what the military says.
I'd like to know that the military understands that they made massive mistakes.
And they can say, look, we advised against it.
You know, that's fine.
I just want to know that our military understands exactly what has just transpired.
And there are going to be hearings about this.
Believe me, there are going to be hearings.
More in just a second.

Tuttle Twins books.
If you're, you remember that teacher in Utah, Utah, I think it was last week or was it the week before, where she came out and said, most parents are dumber than you kids.
You don't have to believe everything your parents believe most because most likely you're smarter than them.
That's a real quote from a real teacher.
Thankfully,
the school board fired that person,
but I can guarantee you there's probably somebody like that in your school district that's saying the same kinds of things.
Do you really know what your kids are being taught?
Bad information is only effectively countered with good information.
That's why I want to talk to you about the Tuttle Twins books.
They teach liberty and
the Republic and the free market in a fun way that kids can actually understand.
And they start with young kid books all the way to young adult books.

Mercury One had
sleepless nights all last week, aiding with the evacuation and
the coordination in Kabul.
Please pray for all of the volunteers at Mercury One and the Nazarene Fund and all of the groups that are trying to work on this.
And then we were hit with a hurricane in
in New Orleans, ripped the roof off of a hospital.
They're trying to relocate the ICU patients today.
Power has just gone out.
Who would have thunk?
I guess
they didn't really prepare New Orleans for yet another hurricane.
It's getting a little
old, quite honestly, sending money down there and then it's being wasted and not used to do the right things.
But
they're in trouble again.
And if you would like to help out, you can donate to mercury1.org, to our disaster relief fund.
That money goes to things like New Orleans, whoever is hit.
And by the way, we don't just give the money out.
We look for the people who make the biggest difference on the ground.
And the ones who can deliver most impact for the dollar are the ones that we choose.
We're more of a clearinghouse than anything else, and we partner with people to do these things.
And
we have to remember the people in New Orleans that were hit by a tremendous hurricane are now a million people without power.
Mercury1.org is where you can go and donate.
And you can donate there to the Nazarene Fund.
You have to market, but the Nazarene Fund or disaster relief or education, it's up to you.
But
we could use the help.
No matter how you're feeling, there is no denying getting back out there at kind of an adjustment.

This
is
the Glenbeck Program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.
As we are back from the Middle East, I have an update for you on the Nazarene Fund and some of the things that are going on
and why we have to now remain quiet for a little while.
We'll give you an update on that.
But as everybody is bogged down in the Middle East and looking at that, one thing that we haven't looked at really is what does this mean for the U.S.
because of our allies?
Do our allies even trust us anymore?
Nigel Farage, the Brexit Party leader, is joining us next from, I believe he's in London now, to talk to us about what the British Parliament has said and done in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck program.
You know, they say the little things in life are the most satisfying, and maybe that's true most of the time, but sometimes the big things count too.
You know, really satisfying, like when you're buying or selling your home and it goes well, that's kind of satisfying.
Yeah.
And it's a big thing.
It can be a real headache if you don't have the right real estate agent.
That's why we have created real estate agentsitrust.com.
This is a free service to you.
This is one of my companies.
And
it was born out of frustration, not knowing how to get the right real estate agent.
And I figured if it's not just, it can't just be me, how do you even interview a real estate agent?
So many of us are just like, I don't know, my, you know, my nephew.
He just started in the real estate business and you should give him a call.
And we do for some strange reason.
Don't do it.
It's the biggest investment of your life.
You want the right real estate agent for you?
Go to realestate agentsitrust.com.
Whether you're moving across the street, across town, or across the country, we have you covered on buying and selling realestate agentsitrust.com.
Nigel Farage,
we sat at dinner in the Capitol.
It must have been almost, gosh,
two years ago now.
And I don't think we could have seen this coming, our split in our alliance, or at least it feels like that.
Nigel Farage, welcome to the program.
Glenn, thank you very much indeed.
And listening to your introduction, I mean, look, you know, I've spent 40 years working for American companies in business,
being allied politically with Donald Trump and many friends in the Republican Party.
I mean, there's nobody this side of the pond who's more pro-American, more pro-these relationship than I am.
And it hurts me to say this, but for Biden to unconditionally withdraw from a military mission after 20 years without any planning or any foresight as to how we get our nationals out in the case of a Taliban advance, and to do it without even consulting the British Prime Minister and refusing to answer his phone call.
for almost 48 hours sends a message to us.
And the message is we cannot trust America despite being our closest partner for over 100 years.
We cannot trust America with this man in charge.
And
it's a sad realization, but it's true.
And I think it goes even further than the relationship between the UK and the USA.
I think NATO, frankly, I mean, ceases to function.
So the damage that Biden has done to America's international reputation couldn't be greater.
Yeah,
they were all yelling at Donald Trump saying that he was going to destroy NATO.
And I think this has destroyed NATO.
I mean,
what does our alliance even mean?
I mean, I cannot believe that the White House refused the call of the British Prime Minister for over 40 hours.
That's incomprehensible to me.
Yes, it is incomprehensible, but it's also, isn't it, the way that international mainstream media wanted to portray the Trump movement just indeed as they did with the Brexit movement you know Trump is going to destroy NATO no no no no what Trump did he turned up at the NATO HQ in Brussels and said and Barbara had said similar before but without any particular strength that we cannot go on with a NATO where major countries like Germany are only paying half the membership fee the NATO rules are actually very fair regardless of the size of the country you must spend two percent of GDP on defense and the Germans were spending one.
So actually, in many ways, what Trump was doing was trying to make NATO fair, but it was willfully, willfully misportrayed.
What Biden has done is to say, look, you know, we're the big guys in NATO, but hey, we just do stuff without consulting.
Despite the fact you too have had many hundreds of people killed in Afghanistan and put big money into Afghanistan, but without even the compliment of a conversation, we've decided decided that effectively the NATO mission is over.
So yeah, special relationship with Britain are completely in tatters.
NATO, I'm not even sure it can possibly survive what it's just gone through.
And of course, you know, when you look at those photographs today of Taliban soldiers now dressed in American military equipment with 85 billion dollars worth of U.S.
military hardware now in the hands of these people, with the giant lithium reserves that exist within Afghanistan now completely open to exploitation with communist China, and warnings coming in the UK today that our terrorism threat is now going up directly as a result of what has happened in Afghanistan.
And one of the most overused words in the English language is disaster.
But believe me, Glenn, this is on every level a disaster.
I heard things coming from the Parliament and the House of Lords that I
never have heard before.
Things like,
we don't trust America.
We don't know if we can
get into a military operation again with America.
How significant is what's said on the floor of Parliament and the House of Lords?
Oh, it's significant, Laura.
I mean, look, ever since 1917, ever since America entered the First World War, you know, we have been beside each other throughout virtually every single major conflict.
I mean, side by side.
And yes, of course, America is bigger than us, but it's been a very, very important relationship.
And not just in terms of military, in terms of information sharing as well.
I mean, that's where, in many ways, that's where our two countries are the closest in sharing intelligence.
I'm not even sure right now
that the British government or security forces
would even share every piece of intelligence with an administration that has treated us with such complete and utter contempt.
Yes, of course, it is right that any government puts the interests of its own citizens first, but you do that as well as consulting with your friends and allies.
And when you've worked with the Brits, I mean, you know, I know 1812 did happen, but it's a long time ago.
And I think we've been, I think we've been forgiven.
I think we're okay.
I think we're okay.
But literally, since April 1917, you know, we are the two countries and we've shed much blood and spent much treasure all over the world defeating Nazism and other terrible regimes.
And for us to have gone through those things together, to now be treated like this, that is why you're hearing members of the House of Lords, members of the Parliament, senior commentators, and people like me who are instinctively pro-American saying we have a real problem now.
And you know something, America,
Biden, whether we like it or not, is the leader of the free world.
And it's him that we look to for really, really big things.
And frankly, if America falls, then Western civilization falls.
That is how great these stakes are.
I have to say for my own part, I think he'll be gone by November, December 2022.
I think it's very unlikely that he'll stay beyond that.
And the Democrats will make him the fool guy for some very bad midterm results.
But I'm not too sure that Kamala Harris following him is going to be any better.
So, you know, to think there's three and a half years, three and a half years of this administration to run, I'm just beginning to ask myself, how much more damage can they do?
If we had another September 11th,
how hesitant, what would the world's reaction be to us right now, all of our allies?
Well, I think, to be honest with you, even without
September the 11th, any increase in jihadi terrorism across Europe or in the United Kingdom or anywhere else for that matter, I think the finger will be firmly pointing to Washington, D.C.
Because, you know, one thing that is true is that for the last handful of years, we've been remarkably free of these horrible jihadi attacks.
British intelligence is now warning that
we do now face a significantly increased terror threat.
And that's because jihadi groups all over the world have taken great comfort from the way the Taliban have moved forward.
And of course they know, and they know that Afghanistan once again will be a place where international terror can be plotted and can be planned.
Let me ask you something off the subject.
America is not seeing the
revolt of the citizens of France and of England to these draconian COVID restrictions.
I mean, people in France are having picnics in the street in front of restaurants that are demanding you have, you know, a COVID passport.
And
we're not seeing any of that.
Tell me what's going on over in Europe with the COVID
mess.
Yeah.
Well,
France is a very unique country in many ways.
And there are things about France we love, and things about France that we don't necessarily like so much.
The English have a familiar saying about the French.
We say the French are revolting,
by which we mean
by which we mean.
The French love to take to the streets.
They love to revolt.
They love to protest.
Their fishermen do it.
Their farmers do it.
Direct action is a way of life in France.
And you're right.
The level of protest against vaccine passports, which President Macron is trying to impose in a very draconian manner, the level of protest against it in France is very significant indeed.
And I think Macron is facing a real problem.
Across much of the rest of Europe, including the UK, whilst there is dissent, it's on nothing like the scale.
that it's face on in France.
Yep.
And I, you know, let's see how this one plays out.
But it wouldn't surprise me if the French protests don't succeed against vaccine passports.
And I mean, come on.
You know, the idea that we have to show medical ID and goodness knows what else just to go and buy, you know, a cup of tea and a sandwich is frankly ridiculous.
It's against everything we've ever stood for.
It's just plain wrong.
Nigel Farage, one last question.
How are the American people perceived?
Are we perceived separate from the government?
Because a lot of people were against Donald Trump.
The media made him into an absolute tyrant monster.
Many of the people who are now complaining about Joe Biden hated Donald Trump.
I tried to think of a country that would be friendly to conservatives here in America and constitutionalists, and I can't think of any.
How are we perceived?
Yeah, it's been very difficult.
And I mean, look, let's face it, Biden is the creation of mainstream media and the social media giants.
I mean, they're the ones that allowed this man, promoted this man,
made sure that there'd be no proper investigation into Hunter Biden, the laptop corruption, no question
of tens of millions of mail-out ballots being sent all over America.
So, you know, congratulations to the New York Times and CNN.
You got your man, and look what good it's done.
Look, I think the truth of it is that British people certainly, and I think most Europeans, we're not going to lay the blame of this at the door of ordinary Americans.
We can see that it's bumbling, incoherent Biden, a man who is not fit to be president.
So I don't think I don't think all Americans are damned by the actions of that man.
But I do think there are large sections of the media in our country and your country that owe us the most almighty apology.
Yeah, I agree.
Well, let it start here.
We apologize.
There are millions of Americans who think this was incredibly
mishandled at best.
And the way that we have treated our allies is despicable.
And we know that.
Nigel, thank you so much.
Thank you.
Keep us alive.
Thank you.
You bet.
Nigel Farage, you can follow him at Nigel underscore Farage
on Twitter and theBrexitParty.org.
Okay, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
It is Life Lock.
There are so many things where,
I mean,
I don't even know what to do.
You know, we're getting to the place to where you're like, oh, okay, all right.
Cyber crime, cyber hackers, it's more dangerous than it has ever been before.
I've got all kinds of things I'm worried about.
I'm worried about just my kids online.
I'm worried about COVID.
I'm worried about freedom.
I'm worried.
Can you stop?
Help, help.
Well, that's where Life Lock comes in.
They can't prevent all identity theft,
but they are the best in the business.
And if somebody hacks in, they have a whole team to work with you to fix the problem.
if you're compromised.

10 seconds.
Station ID.
You know, I, uh, it's interesting to me
that the Taliban is working with the Russians and working with the Chinese.
They were in
before
any of this.
Before our guys were even out of the country, the Taliban was posing for pictures with the Chinese government officials.
That's pretty remarkable.
The reason why is they have rare earth minerals.
I believe we, the United States, has the largest deposit of rare earth minerals out of any country in the world, but they're in Alaska.
And we're just not going to look for them.
We just won't do it.
I'm telling you, we're going to lose Alaska.
In my lifetime, I believe we will lose Alaska because we are just morons.
The world is changing.
And the Taliban now is
now doing business with China.
And China doesn't care who they, they don't care who they kill.
The Taliban kills everybody.
They don't care.
Just give us the rare earth minerals.
Now China has also,
they've just expanded into Latin America for a huge project in Argentina.
They are taking over the mines for lithium in Argentina.
$391 million takeover offer.
We have got to pay attention to what is happening.
China is gobbling up all of the lithium.
Hey, Stu,
when is GM making its
getting rid of its V8 engine?
I believe the, I think 2025, the entire company is fully electric.
Fully electric.
So it's 2021 now.
They're doing the 2022 models are coming out now.
Hybrids?
All hybrids?
No.
I mean, they are making some...
They're going out with a bang here with some real combustion engines here.
Right, they all are.
They all are, which is cool.
I mean, and there's a good, there's a good line going out, I think, right now.
But that's it.
This is it.
This is the last generation.
Oh, by the way, it's combustion engine.
It's really good to keep people, you know, locked into their home areas with only 400-mile radius or a 300-mile radius for some of these cars.
You're not going anywhere big.
You're not going anywhere far in these things.
But all of the cars, I mean, Ferrari is going to be, I think by next year, is going to be hybrids, all hybrids.
By 2030, Ferrari, everybody but Bugatti,
and Bugatti we just don't know about, they haven't said, but everyone is going to be out of the engine business by 2030.
Do you remember, you're, Glenn, we're of a certain age and may remember a controversy back in like
gotta be the 90s and maybe the into the early 2000s on Al Gore.
When he was running for for president in 2000,
people went through his old books and
found where he said he thought he wanted to eliminate the combustion engine.
And it was a big controversy.
I was like, wait, what?
You want to get rid of the combustion engine?
He was mocked for it.
And here we are, 20 years later, and
General Freaking Motors.
We're eight years away from all combustion engines gone.
That's basically what they're saying.
All of them.
All combustion engines.
And they talk about it, like maybe there'll be some that hang around for sporting purposes and
things of that nature.
Let me ask you this: where does all that electricity come from?
Where does that electricity come from?
That's wind power.
It's going to better get a lot more efficient.
Unless you're because you're not building nuclear plants.
You're crazy.
It's and they're also getting rid of coal.
This is going to cause
a massive shortage of electricity.
Massive.
You're not going to have brownouts.
You will have full blackouts nationwide.
As soon as this is...
California can't even handle it now.
Can't handle it now.
Let alone turning every single car on the road into an electric car.
It's craziness.
It is absolute madness.
And by the way,
China is buying up all of the lithium mines.
Who's going to be making all of the batteries?
We are doing everything to surrender our status.
I mean,
you want to talk about third world status?
That's what we're headed for.
And for no reason whatsoever.
All right.
More in just a second.
Can we talk about something happy?
No, that is not allowed in this society today.
All right.
All right.
Well, 2022 isn't that far away.
That's something that's happy.
That's a million years away.
Have you seen
how fast things are happening?
A million years away.
More in a second.
This is the Glen Dak program.
So let me ask you this question.
You find yourself turning on the news and feeling a little hopeless.
Everywhere you look, everything's being attacked.
Open voters, spending gone crazy, prospect of more mandates, lockdowns, inflation.
Oh, Afghanistan.
You know,
here's the thing.
You might feel overwhelmed, but don't because it is truly the power of one, one individual doing what they
know to be right.
And here's one thing you can do.
Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

So while we were all paying to Afghanistan, which, by the way, just let me thank you for everything that you have done.
I am,
it's bothersome to me that I am getting any credit for any of this.
All of us have a job to do.
And all you have to do is
say
what's right and then just do what's right.
And you did.
You gave.
I suggested, you gave.
And then other people are out there doing all the work to save.
And it's an amazing team effort.
It really is.
And it's not just the Nazarene Fund.
There are several groups that are all working together in tandem.
And
in just one airport, just one weighing station, 12,000 people were rescued that were not going anywhere.
It's remarkable.
We are not going to be talking about
any rescue efforts for the time being.
Things have changed dramatically on the ground, become much more dangerous.
And we don't want to give the Taliban any tips on where people might be, what we're looking for in numbers, or anything like that.
So, we're going to be silent about rescue tips.
Do not mistake our silence for inaction.
We just cannot talk about it.
It is far too dangerous now.
Things have changed.
We'll give you the updates as we can.
But as everybody was following this over the weekend, there's been some other things that have happened.
For instance, Twitter has permanently banned Alec Berenson.
He is a guy who is anti-COVID vaccine.
Yeah, I don't think he would describe himself that way, but he's been very skeptical about COVID, you know, the mainstream coverage of COVID and the mainstream coverage of the vaccines.
Okay, he said, according to him, COVID vaccine, it doesn't stop infection or transmission.
Don't think of it as a vaccine.
Think of it at best as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy.
I kind of kind of agree with that.
It's like the flu
vaccine.
It might be geared to the current flu, but it's not going to cover you forever.
The flu is constantly changing.
The same thing.
We're going to live with COVID forever.
The idea of wiping it out is ridiculous.
It's not going to happen.
I think you can agree or disagree with Alex on a lot of the points he makes, but to be banned from Twitter because you have a different take than
whatever organization
is fact-checking these claims.
It's insane.
And so you know, the Taliban is still okay on Twitter.
They're, you know, a great follow, Glad.
I mean, that's crazy.
You should see their TikTok page.
It's great.
It's great.
The dances they all do in Unison.
Okay.
On Thursday,
Google took aim at the Gateway Pundit.
Now, this is a site, conservative, ranked top 200 U.S.
websites.
You may not agree with what they print, but Google has now permanently demonetized them.
So in other words, they've just shut their business down.
You can't make any money.
So Google demonetizing, I don't know the back end of that as well, but is that basically saying that they can't hold ads that go through the Google Ads servers, basically.
And that's a lot of money.
Yeah, that's a lot of money.
A lot of money.
Businesses structure their business completely around those.
Yeah, that was
one reason why we're a subscription service and an ad service, because one of those is going to come to an end.
And if
apparently people like
Citibank have their way, both of them would come to an end.
Because there's one other.
There's one other that really I think is the most disturbing.
All of these are disturbing.
But the third
weekend victim of the purge
is the former director of the Defense
Intelligence Agency and Trump National Security Advisor, Michael Flynn.
Now, Michael Flynn has already been wronged.
He already has been cleared of all of the stuff that they said.
It was completely bogus bogus what they said about Michael Flynn.
Completely bogus.
But he just got
an account notice from Chase Bank over the weekend, and here's what it reads.
After careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards.
on September 18th, 2021, because,
listen to this carefully, this is the great reset.
Because continuing the relationship creates possible reputational risks to our company.
Wait, because General Flynn might be charging a stay at the Holiday Inn Express, that somehow or another is going to risk their reputation?
Of Chase Bank?
Just let me remind you, JP Morgan Chase, you know, the one that just wrote almost a billion-dollar check.
Let me get this right.
Almost wrote a billion-dollar check to resolve federal wire fraud charges because the company, in a separate criminal scheme, defrauded the precious metals and U.S.
treasury markets.
That company is worried about doing business with Michael Flynn.
Come on.
Obviously, in reality, there's no reputational risk to them for having Michael Flynn have a personal credit card.
But this is exactly what the Great Reset write down.
Yes, right down.
It says you can't, companies cannot do business with other companies that have a low ESG score.
Now, while they're not counting on an ESG score yet,
they are already doing it.
And so you can't, if you would have a low ESG score or you're unpopular,
you're on the wrong side of whatever the administration, and I mean of the entire this new hybrid of corporate governance and corporate
sleeping with the administration and governments all over the world.
If they deem that you are not
good,
then they will cancel you and you won't be able to buy and sell things.
Well, there's step number one
to General Michael Flynn.
Incredible.
And this is obviously a massive problem all over the place for mainly conservatives in almost every arena of life.
It's coming.
One thing we have, we should spend more time on, I think, is how to solve these issues.
And look, there are some interesting things that people propose through the law.
There are some interesting things that people propose about
doing things on their own, starting your own company.
All those things are part of the conversation.
The part of the conversation that I think has received too little attention from the right is that almost every single one of these problems, when it comes to anything digital, almost every single one of them can be solved in the crypto space.
You can talk about creating your own social network.
But again, as we've seen with places like Parlor, you start it, and then
you have all these overlords that can shut it down.
When it comes to the crypto space, it's basically impossible to do this.
And all of these programs, when it comes to finance, when it comes to social media, when it comes to storage of files, when it comes to business loans and business arrangements, all of these things are either already created in the crypto space or are in the process of being created.
And they can't be stopped like this.
There is no way to stop them like what we're seeing in these stories that happen every day.
You can't take away Michael Flynn's credit card.
They don't know who's paying for stuff.
It's totally a different way of this stuff working and it works totally outside of the system.
And
this is why I'm
so,
you know, so skeptical of
governments and the way they're going to try to crack down on this stuff long term.
They're going to try.
But again, when it comes to
actually
being able to complete these transactions, complete these posts so they can never be deleted.
They can never go away.
All of that is already available with cryptocurrency and
not just the currency part of it,
but blockchain.
And it's all protected and
everlasting.
And
it's a part of this equation that is really important for conservatives to get their minds around because there's going to be time, I think, where these other solutions aren't going to do anything.
We can talk about changing the law, but we've seen what happens with the law.
We have absolute rights that are violated all the time.
If you think some little
communication section adjustment, it may help at some point.
I'm not saying it's totally wrong to look at those things, but like long-term, real, you know, life and death type of issues,
a section 230 tweak is not going to bring us to the promised land, nor is even bringing up your own, building your own company.
So
let me pose an impossible question
and get your answer on it.
I know my answer, but it's one that I'm really not comfortable with,
but I think it has to be done.
And I'd love to hear your solution because it is one that is currently kind of on the
edge of going mainstream.
And
it is just, okay, Mr.
Constitutionalist, what do you do?
And I'll give that to you in just a minute, standby.
Seemed like a great idea at the time.
Yeah.
That's the title of the life story of everybody who's ever gotten him or herself up to their eyeballs in credit card debt.
Seemed like a good idea at the the time.
If those credit cards are still haunting your past
and you're probably feeling it in the wallet right now, may I suggest you give American Financing a call?
Let them see if they can get that debt consolidation with any other debt that you might have at a lower interest rate.
What about a mortgage?
Have you considered refinancing it at a lower rate if one is available?
You could be saving hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as $1,000 a month, but you're really not going to know until you pick up the phone and give American Financing an all-important call.
They're in it for you, not the bank.
They've been helping people just like you for over 20 years, and they can really help right now, save you money.

You are listening to the Glenbeck program.
This is the Glenbeck program.
All right, so let me give you an impossible question.
Does a company have a right to say
no shirts, no shoes, no service?
Yes.
Do they have a right to say
anyone with a blue shirt cannot come in?
Be a strange business choice, but yes, they they could.
Theoretically, they could.
Do they have a right to say, I'm not making a gay wedding cake?
Yes.
Do they have a right to say, I'm only making gay wedding cakes?
Yes.
Okay.
Do they have a right to say, I'm staying open.
You can't close me down because of COVID?
I would argue, yes.
Do they have a right to say...
Something's coming.
Yeah, do they have a right to say only vaccine people can come in to our store only vaccinated people only vaccinated people only people who have been vaccinated i think uh i i would argue yes even though i think a lot of the audience would disagree i think they would too and i would agree with you that yes you can't make it you can't say it's constitutional one side and not on the other
with this caveat
I have no problem if it's Joe's deli, you know, Joe's deli and jelly donuts.
Okay.
I have have no problem if that local company wants to say that.
I'm having a problem because we no longer have a real true free market when it comes to some of these giant corporations.
They are in bed with the government.
We know that from social media.
They admit it.
When you're in bed with the government, you should not
be exempt from constitutional
underpinnings.
You can't violate the First Amendment.
We know that Google and Facebook and
Twitter, they all
are in and have said that they're in with the government, okay?
Doing the bidding of the government.
Well, that makes you an extension of the government.
I'm sorry.
We never thought of it this way, but some of these big corporations, they're wielding so much power now because the government is putting small businesses out of business that I don't give you the same protections that I give the local mom and pop
because
you are so connected to the government that you are actually beginning to be part of the government.
Yeah, I'm nervous about this on both sides, right?
Yeah, I am too.
I am too.
I'm nervous about
saying every business we think is important is some public utility and we're going to start regulating it like it's an arm of the government.
But I'm also very nervous about what they're doing with this association.
And that's why
you should not have these giant companies in bed with the government.
Correct.
This is back, you know, Michael Moore did that terrible movie, Sicko,
recently famous for praising the Cuban healthcare system and how wonderful it was, which didn't really turn out that well.
But he also made the argument that capitalism, his big argument against capitalism, and maybe this was the next movie he made, but it was his big argument against capitalism, where he said,
Look at this company.
This company's in bed with the government.
And look at this company.
This company's in bed with the government.
And it's like, well, wait a minute.
I have that same critique.
I don't want the government in bed with any of these companies.
That's why I don't like PBS.
It's an NPR.
Capitalism?
It's the opposite of capitalism.
It's the exact opposite.
And he was, at the time, criticizing capitalism.
But that needs to end.
That needs to end in a
big case.
That's crony capitalism.
The government should not be in bed and doing special favors for any company, period.
And until that time, I kind of feel that, you know, forget Section 230.
They're part and arm of the government.
I think they should be held to constitutional standards.
And a lot of these big companies should be held to the same standards.
Let me tell you about the zebra.
Thezebra.com.
Shopping for home or
car insurance is complicated.
Stu you used the zebra and saved a buttload of money, didn't you?
Yeah, the zebra is a great, great service.
We overpay on insurance all the time.
Car insurance, home insurance.
You don't look at it.
You said it once and you forget it and they keep raising your rates and you never look at the other possibilities ever again.
So thezebra.com pairs people with the insurance company that's right for them, delivering the quotes with the coverage that they need.
It saves the average American $922 on their home and car insurance combined.
That's a lot.
That's a lot.
That's the average.
$922.
All you have to do to find out is just go to thezebra.com slash Beck.
That's the Zebra,
spelled like the,
and and zebra.
You know, if you're too stupid to know how to spell thezebra.com/slash peck, you know, you should pay $920 more.
Thezebra.com/slash back.
Go there now and save a lot of money.
Final out of the broadcast coming up next.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback Program
on Saturday on the broadcast of MSNBC's Velchi,
which
who knew that was even a show, on the air, even a word, really,
Elon Omar said she was surprised that President Joe Biden is not allowing the pressure that's being mounted in the media and in Washington to derail the mission that he set forth in Afghanistan.
The level of evacuation that he and his administration has done and been able to undertake is really inspiring.
Well,
I guess if you're an enemy of the country, it would be.
Did I say that out loud?
That was just, my gosh, that was wrong.
I would apologize.
Maybe I'll save the apology for tomorrow.
Today we'll just let it stand.
What do you say?
One hour left of the broadcast?
What else is left to say?
Oh, a lot in 60 seconds.
The Glen Beck Program.
Last week, Double Line Capital capital founder Jeff Gunlock paved the roadmap for the U.S.
dollar losing its reserve currency status.
It's not a matter of if, it is a matter of when.
So how do you prepare for such a drastic change?
By the way, this has happened before in American history.
This is like, oh, it'll never happen.
It's happened like three or four times before.
Last time it happened was when we got the green back.
And what happens to the people who have been saving their money is this.
You get about a
60% haircut on whatever you have.
So you have $100 in the bank.
Congratulations.
You can turn it in for the new currency at the fantastic price of $60.
And congratulations on that.
And you really have nowhere to go.
That is what is coming.
Gold and silver gunlock said, we seem to be taking a lot of things for granted these days.
We're setting the stage to experience the consequences of our actions.
We've been running a non-serious economic program since 1908, but it has accelerated so much in the past decade.
The time for waiting is over.
This week only, with the purchase of a tube of $5 gold Indian coins, you're going to receive the famed 2-ounce silver maple flex bar at no cost and one of Goldline's new branded one-ounce silver bars at no cost as well.
At this point,
you really shouldn't need the encouragement to look at your finances and see: should I have some gold and silver?
The answer, at least for my family, is a yes.
Call 866 Goldline, 866Goldline or goldline.com.
Welcome to the program.
The Taliban is growing more violent, adding checkpoints nearing the airport.
This is
according to the people who are on the ground.
An all-volunteer group of American veterans of the Afghan war launched a final mission on Wednesday night dubbed the Pineapple Express.
They took and shepherd hundreds of at-risk Afghans, the elite forces, and their families to safety.
Moving after nightfall in near-pitch-black darkness, according to ABC, and extremely dangerous conditions, the group said it worked
unofficially in tandem with the United States military and U.S.
Embassy to move people, sometimes one person at a time or in pairs, but rarely more than a small bunch.
They moved them inside of the wire of the U.S.
military-controlled side of Karzai International Airport.
You know, by the way, Karzai International Airport, can we change that name?
Because, you know, when you get a baggage tag, it says KIA.
Probably not the best luggage tag for the Afghanistan airport.
Maybe it's just me.
There were wounded among the Pineapple Express travelers from the blast.
The members were, members of the the group said they were assessing whether unaccounted-for Afghans they were helping had been killed.
We're pretty sure that
some of the Afghans that we were helping
were killed.
As of Thursday morning, the group said it had brought as many as 500 Afghan special operators, assets, and enablers and their families into the airport overnight, handing them over to the protective custody of the U.S.
military.
There are a lot of people that are going in and doing what they can.
And
I would just,
if you know somebody who is over in Afghanistan, because we are getting so many requests,
please tell them, as
this group just said,
you've got to move in ones, maybe twos, but never as a group.
And the Taliban and ISIS
are tracking phones.
They are tracking people.
They are also looking to websites and to Instagram and Facebook pages like the Nazarene Fund, like the Mighty Oaks Foundation.
and
they are tracking them and they are hunting for them actively.
So please, if you know someone, tell them, please go to a secure location.
Gosh, I
almost
said something I wasn't supposed to.
Go to a secure location.
You're going to have to figure that out on your own.
The world has not forgotten about you, but turn off your cell phone.
Also, highly recommended that when they are talking to people, that they give everyone that they trust a password.
And when you do turn on your phone, if you get a phone call
or a text message, that it includes that password.
Otherwise, do not tell anyone.
what's going on.
Please pass that to anybody you that is over there.
President Biden says there's only 240 people left that need to get out, 240 Americans.
I believe that.
Bull crap.
I believe that
entirely.
You know, I thought of something
the other day
while I was over in the Middle East, and I thought.
I got so much heat for this as a theme.
So much heat.
People hated it.
And, you know, it amazes me because we're always, my timing is always wrong.
My timing is always wrong.
I seem to be just a little too far ahead.
Roger Ailes said to me, oh, you're leading the parade all right, but you're leading it about five blocks ahead of the actual parade.
And I was like, oh, okay.
But I think that is true because I want to play something that we made
about five years ago and
played it quite often.
And I thought of it this weekend because this is exactly what we need.
And this is exactly what is happening right now in Afghanistan.
People who don't necessarily agree, people that, you know,
should be, I guess, in some way in competition with each other.
Nobody cares.
They're all just standing together and getting the job done.
And it reminded me of this.
I know we
don't see
everything
in the same way.
But I know we
won't be
really
free if we don't stay
united.
Cause divided,
we will fall for anything gets through.
So I have
decided
I will stand for you.
And I will,
I will make a stand.
I will raise my voice,
I will hold your hand.
Cause we are one,
I will beat my drum,
I have made my choice, we will overcome.
Cause we are one.
Some say
there's no way
your way will ever be okay.
They say
the best days are behind sober wine.
And you will find
the times where
the best man
defended a friend, never countrymen.
But now there's
nowhere
where you can speak your mind.
But I will,
I will make a stand.
I will raise my voice.
I will hold your hand.
Cause we are one.
I will beat my drum.
I have made my choice.
We will overcome.
Cause we are one.
I will make a stand.
I will raise my voice.
I will hold your hand.
Cause we are one.
I will beat my drum.
I have made my choice.
We will overcome.
Cause we are one.
Times may change, but truth remains.
We won't be silenced, won't be changed.
Justice everywhere.
Breaking
justice
everywhere.
I will make it stand.
I will raise my voice.
I will hold your hand.
Cause we are one.
I will beat my drum.
I have made my choice.
We will overcome.
Cause we are one.
I will make a stand.
I will raise my voice.
I will hold your hand.
Cause we are one.
I will beat my drum.
I have made my choice.
We will overcome.
Cause we are one.
This is the Glen Beck program.
That was our theme about five years ago,
and it didn't make sense to a lot of people.
I think it probably does today.
We have to come together.
I don't care who you voted for.
Do you know that we left 22,000 Humvees behind?
We didn't blow them up.
The Taliban now has 22,174 Humvees,
634 M1 117s, 155 mine-proof vehicles, 169 armored personnel carriers, 42,000 trucks and SUVs, 64,363 machine guns, 176 major artillery pieces, 126,000 pistols, 358,530 assault rifles, 16,035 night vision goggles that you can't even buy as an American citizen, 162,000 radios, 8,000 military trucks, 33
M17 helicopters, 33 UH-60 Blackhawks.
We left 33
Blackhawks.
We left four C-130 transports.
This is
an impeachable offense.
This is something that
even if you don't want to go as far as impeaching someone, which I think this is,
you have to agree that this is wild incompetence and has made the
American people and the people of the world
in
we've left them in a very dangerous situation.
So what can you do?
What can you do?
I would ask that the number one thing that you have to do is purge yourself of the anger.
Purge yourself of that.
Do everything you can.
And the best way to do that is serving others.
Right now,
We are looking at New Orleans.
Million people
out of electricity.
There are people that
need help, and FEMA is going in.
But quite honestly, I don't want people reliant on the government.
We have to help our own neighbors.
If you want to do that,
you can give to whomever you think is the best.
Mercury One always has people on the ground.
You can donate at Mercury One.
You can donate
to the Nazarene Fund.
If you find another group of people that you find more honorable or just fit your worldview or whatever, donate to them.
Quentin Tarantino, I understand, was trying to
finance a plane or two to get out of Afghanistan.
Don't know if he did, but if he did, congratulations.
I'm glad you did it.
We all have to put our differences aside and we all have to come together.
I'm going to take a phone call from Sean in just a second.
He heard us talk about something and he he said, I am taking a stand today.
What can you do?
Well, listen to Sean.
Maybe, perhaps this is what you can do in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about Car Shield.
There is lots of ways to waste money.
You could invest in a new wind farm.
Invest in the U.S.
dollar.
That would be great.
You could literally open the window and throw cash out into the wind.
And of course, there's the granddaddy of them all.
You could let your car's warranty lapse and then pay for uncovered repairs because all of the really expensive uncovered repairs happen after the warranty runs out.
That's why getting coverage from CarShield is so important.
I've probably saved maybe $10,000 over the last five years or so.
just on my trucks.
I've got old trucks that don't have warranties and I use them and they run hard.
And I probably saved 10 grand in repairs because I had Car Shield.
Car Shield is a win-win.
They'll get you back on track when you're in a pinch and you're not on the hook to pay thousands of dollars.
Get the coverage today and see why my trucks, my cars that have CarShield coverage, go further.

Let me go to Sean.
Hello, Sean.
Welcome to the program.
Hey, Glenn, thanks for having me.
You bet.
You bet.
So I, yeah, we've been listening to your story about General Michael Flynn and what Chase Bank has done to him.
And, you know, I called my wife immediately.
Just got off the phone with her a few minutes ago and then called you.
I said, we've got to be done with this organization.
We're both veterans.
Between us, we've got about 21 years in the military.
I've got two combat deployments, Afghanistan and Iraq.
I don't care what you think about Michael Flynn, who has been cleared of everything, by the way, but we don't have veterans like this.
And so we're done.
So we have a $25,000 line of credit is gone.
And
we're going to refinance right now.
Did you tell them why?
Oh, we are.
Oh, we're going to send them the exact same letter that they sent to Michael Flynn.
Good, good.
And we're going to remind them that their reputation suffers because of the billion dollars they just had to pay, and not because of anybody like Michael Flynn who's a hero by the way so we've also we're going through refinance with Veterans United who's a great organization but my wife just hit them up just just sent a letter to them immediately and said hey we want to make sure you never do business with Chase Bank because this is not something that a veterans organization should be affiliated with good for you and we're waiting to hear back and we're going to see what they do
would you let me know when you hear back from them
if you hear back from them yeah absolutely I will yeah yeah I absolutely will we'll probably hear back from them today but yeah I just want to inspire everybody out there It just takes five minutes to go do business with somebody that supports our veterans, that isn't part of the great reset, that doesn't invest in cancel culture, because this is
the power is with us.
So let's do it.
It is.
It is.
Thank you very much, Sean.
I appreciate it.
In case you don't know what happened over the weekend, Michael Flynn, the former Defense Intelligency Agency director,
was canceled by Chase Bank.
They notified him,
quote, after careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on September 18th, 2021, because of continuing the reputation.
I'm sorry, because of continuing the relationship will create possible reputational risks for our country.
I'm sorry, for our company.
I don't know.
Am I drinking again?
This is Chase Bank, JP Morgan, Chase.
Do you have investments with JP Morgan?
Do you have money in Chase?
May I highly recommend you start doing business with a local bank?
I have
everything in local banks, ones that are not tied to anything, not tied to other big banks.
Do your business with a local bank, please.
These people have been under attack since 2008, and they are going to come under attack because
these are all the Fed banks that are left.
Do business with your local bank.
If you find it offensive that a guy, Michael Flynn, who has served his country, and you don't have to agree with him, but he's not guilty of anything.
That was, those were all, I hate to use the expression, trumped up charges against him.
Those were all false charges.
It was corruption
that allowed them to charge those things.
And he wasn't convicted of anything.
What do you say?
What do you say?
Chase Bank, how is he going to hurt you by using your credit card?
I suggest you get your money out of Chase today.
This is the Glenbach program.
All right, let me tell you about RekTech.
I love eating food.
I love eating food really in any condition.
Not a fan of raw, but I'll eat it if I have to.
RekTech is my favorite kind of food.
All year round, you can grill, you can smoke, you can bake on a RekTech grill because
everything turns out because they have
this high-tech monitoring system.
It is really, really great.
It does everything.
It is smart grill technology.
And so you can start your grill, start cooking, monitoring your cooking on an app on your iPhone.
And you don't even have to be at home.
You come home when it's dinner time.
RekTech, follow them on social media.
Sign up for their newsletter because the recipes are unbelievable.

This is the Glenbeck program.
There's some question on the Michael Flynn story, and I want to give you the source and
exactly what is being said by General Michael Flynn and by
Citibank.
So, just the news is the or Chase, sorry, not Citibank,
Chase Bank.
Just the news is the source
of this particular story, along with social media
and particularly General Flynn's social media account.
Just the news,
if I may say, and
it's the New York Times of the right.
And that's not necessarily a compliment if you look at it.
I just think
it's one of the most credible
journalistic sites out there for the right.
And we've talked to John John Solomon many times.
He's the guy behind it.
He
does a very long history in the awards.
Award-winning journalism.
Yeah, mainstream journalism.
Okay, so it's really good.
So there's a story here that, with national attention riveted over the weekend on two major stories, with the frantic U.S.
withdrawal from Afghanistan amid the fall of the Taliban, Category 4, Hurricane Ida slamming in the Louisiana coast, big tech and woke finance dramatically extended their reach of cancel culture with brazen moves to silence and harass three-profile, high-profile voices of political and scientific dissent.
Now, this is the way it happens.
When the world is busy, that's when things change.
Ask the people of Hong Kong.
So, on Saturday, according to Just the News, Twitter permanently banned Alex Berenson, who has built a large social media following challenging public health establishment orthodoxy on COVID issues ranging from lockdown to vaccine mandates.
This is one of the most important things of our lifetimes.
And anyone who tries to shut down debate on what's really going on is
not only un-American, but a member of the Dark Ages Church.
They have just replaced the Dark Ages church that says anyone who disagrees with us is a heretic.
That is not American.
That's not 21st century thinking by any stretch of the imagination.
So
they said that he had posted some things that Twitter was part of their Twitter ban.
In fact, they said to Fox News, the account you referenced has been permanently suspended for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation rules.
Well, this is the tweet that did it.
He said, the COVID vaccine doesn't stop infection or transmission.
Don't think of it as a vaccine.
Think of it, at best, as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed in advance of illness.
And we want to make a mandate for it, insanity.
okay apparently you can't say that on Twitter without getting a lifetime ban then Google shut down all of its ad services and Google is the largest advertising house now in the world there is no one that does more advertisement placement than Google Well, they just took and said no more advertisement for Gateway Pundit.
Alrighty, that will put Gateway Pundit out of business most likely.
You can't just shut down the pipes of money overnight.
And then the last victim was former National Security Advisor and Director of the National Intelligence Agency during the Obama administration, Michael Flynn.
He posted to his Telegram account a notice from Chase Bank notifying him of the cancellation of his credit cards.
Quote, after careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on September 18, 2021, because continuing the relationship creates possible reputational risks to our company.
Chase,
according to Flynn in his reply, has gone full-blown woke, end quote.
Quoting, they need to deal with their own reputation instead of persecuting my family and I, end quote.
Flynn said, alluding to JP Morgan's agreement to pay $920 million to resolve federal wire fraud charges against the company for its role in
separate criminal schemes to defraud the precious metals and U.S.
treasury's market.
I don't know.
Paying almost a billion dollars in fines for screwing with the treasury's market seems like a big deal.
Michael Flynn wrote, DOJ dropped my case for their own egregious government misconduct.
It appears you weren't that lucky with the DOJ.
I guess my America first political views don't align with yours, end quote.
Now, the Blaze pointed out
that if you look at the document from Chase Bank,
it
blacks out the first name
of who the letter is going to.
And they didn't do a good job because you can see, I think, the last letter,
which is not the last letter of his first name, not the last letter of his middle name.
And we are thinking that this is his brother.
And that's why he said, you're messing with me and my family.
But I don't think this makes this any better.
Yeah, no.
Unless Michael Flynn's brother is like an axe murderer.
Is he?
Not that I know of.
I've not looked at it.
I have not, I don't know, I don't know.
I feel like we would have heard about that one.
You know,
in today's world, anything's possible.
Anything is possible.
Anything is possible.
And that's the problem.
With smears like this, a lot of people just say, I don't know.
And I guess he deserved it.
Yeah, I mean, the claim is coming from the Flynn family, from Michael Flynn himself, apparently.
So, I mean, I think it's appropriate to
report on what he's saying is happening to him and look into the claim as well.
And showing the actual cancellation.
But again, like, you know, I can look at, I can go on Twitter right now and look at Alex Berenson's account, and it is not there.
So, you know, this is not, it's a, it's a, you can look at any one of these individual things, and it's important to make sure we get all these stories straight.
But so many of these things are happening to conservatives all time that you want, and I don't know that, honestly, I don't even, I don't know at all that Alex Berenson would even call himself a conservative.
I mean, I think through COVID, he's been on
Fox News a lot.
And so,
New York Times reporter at one point.
Anybody now who disagrees, they can be a libertarian.
They can be a left-leaning libertarian.
They can even be.
Or you could be a guy who's building spaceships to go to outer space because you're so scared of climate change.
But when you say something bad about COVID, you wind up getting in trouble too.
Even if you're the richest person or maybe the third richest person on earth,
Tesla's stock has dropped a little bit.
But the point is, like, you could be Elon Musk, a guy who is so ideologically committed to catastrophic global warming that he's building spaceships to escape it.
And even that is not enough for the left.
If you're critical of one narrative, you're the enemy.
By the way, can I change this subject dramatically?
A friend of mine came over.
This has been, we haven't seen each other in a week.
Yeah.
And so before I left for the Middle East, a friend came over and said, I just got the new Tesla Plaid.
Oh, the Plaid.
Okay.
Yeah.
I didn't even know the Plaid.
I didn't, I knew that there was a setting, ludicrous setting.
Yes.
Well, if you remember Space Balls, which all of their
settings seem to reflect, it was ludicrous speed, and then it went, eventually it went to Plaid.
So Plaid would be the fastest in the movie Space Balls.
Have you been in a plaid?
I have not.
I've watched videos on the plaid.
Okay.
Okay.
I'll have to give you the video of me.
He said, you got to videotape yourself.
I had no idea.
I've been in a Tesla before.
Yes.
And I floored a Tesla before.
And they're fast.
They're fast.
They're not like the plaid.
Have you?
You haven't been in.
I have not been in any.
Okay.
It is insane.
It's beyond ludicrous.
Okay.
You put it into plaid mode, you you stop, you put it into ludicrous, and then you hit the plaid launch, and it counts down.
And he's like, are you ready?
Now, I've been in a Tesla, so I was like, yeah, I'm ready.
No, I wasn't ready.
It 1.8 seconds, you're at 60 miles an hour.
1.8.
It's the fastest production car ever built.
The only one that rivals it is the Bugatti.
I don't think the Bugatti does 1.8 seconds out of 60.
Rivals it.
Rival.
Anyone that gets close is the Bugatti.
This thing, I'm telling you, I think I punctured maybe my liver as it slammed into my spine as it took off.
I've never felt anything.
Yes, I have.
Yes, I have.
The closest I have felt to the Tesla plaid is being launched in an airplane off of an aircraft carrier.
And that pulls like six or eight Gs.
Okay.
Space shuttle is, I think, nine.
And I've been launched off an aircraft.
That's the only thing that gets close to that.
It's insanity.
It's insanity.
It really is.
I think people who, you know, I think conservatives look at these cars and say, ugh, electric cars, and you kind of roll your eyes.
I hate them.
I hate them because they're annoying and environmentalists are annoying.
All true.
However, these cars are.
It's just impossible to make a car with a combustion engine that goes as fast as these cars because they have have the power on demand whenever they want it.
Yeah, I don't know what you would ever use it for, except like bank robberies.
But to blow away a Bugatti.
That would be
a fun use of it.
They have, I mean,
I watched
Back to the Future 2.
No good comes from racing at a stoplight.
No good.
You could crash into an old person in a Rolls-Royce pulling out of it.
And it would be very bad.
Your whole career would be wrecked.
That documentary set a lot of people's future.
It really did.
But really, because we took the, the one that came that we test drove a few years ago was, I think, 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds, and it felt unlike anything I'd ever been in.
And I've been in some cars that are pretty fast.
I'm going to ask my friend to give you a ride in the Plaid.
Yes.
I don't like roller coasters.
So I hear these new roller coasters like Disney has the roller coasters that you know are maglev.
Oh, yeah.
Well, yeah.
Yeah.
And it's the same kind of experience.
I've never experienced anything like it.
I've never been on one of those.
So this is, I mean,
it is a rocket ship.
Yeah.
It's a rocket ship with no pause in acceleration.
No time for your organs to settle back down.
Now, to get to top speeds, you know, other Bugattis
can beat the plaid.
But zero to 60, nothing, nothing ever built can beat it.
It's crazy.
In recent production.
That one, I think, is like $130,000, which for the
highest performance.
The Bugatti is like $2 million.
$2 million.
Yeah, it's true.
Anything that can compete with it is up at that level.
By the way, Glenn, we're now
pushing the limits of what humans can take.
You said zero to 1.8, which I've heard 1.8 to 2.0 for the plaid,
but really fast.
And it's almost jarring to the part of you're like uncomfortable jarring.
Oh, no, it was very uncomfortable.
It's disorienting.
They have a roller coaster in Japan that they built.
It was the fastest one ever built with this technology.
You know, it just like launches you.
And it was zero, I think, if I remember right, zero to 150 miles an hour in like 1.8 seconds or something insane.
And they've had to close it down because people were breaking their backs and necks on the roller coaster.
Oh, you're, I mean, I've been launched to, you have to actually kind of, you know, when you're on an aircraft carrier, they say,
grunt, you know what I mean?
And tighten it.
Get all the blood into your head and tighten everything and push your feet against the floor.
And you do.
You need to do that with the Tesla.
Just a little bit.
Not as much, but just a little bit.
Just a little bit.
All right,
let me tell you about the relief factor.
Does it seem sometimes like you just have to drag yourself out of bed in the morning just to face the day because you're going to be in a lot of pain no matter what you're doing?
If so, I can relate.
I know what it feels like to have just a little bit of dread on how bad the day is likely to be because you're going to be hurting for everything you do.
I also know, thank God, what it's like to get out of that pain.
I know you're skeptical.
I was.
It's normal to be skeptical, especially something that says that they can get you out of the pain that you're in.
Believe me, I was exactly the same way.
It's not a drug.
Yeah, well, there's reason number one is not going to work.
I mean, because drugs don't get me out of pain.
They just make me not care as much.
Oh, I'm on fire.
That's not a good place to be either.

We're glad you're here.
By the way,
538's presidential approval tracker.
Not good.
Well, for Biden, it's not good.
I'm glad people are waking up.
Yeah, me too.
Me too.
There is some hope here because you get sometimes locked in, at least I do.
I get locked into this idea that no one can change their mind and no one's looking at what's really happening.
10 points.
Yeah, it's a big change.
Big change.
And especially, as 538 points out, especially in a time when nobody's changing their mind, where everything is kind of locked in.
Could we, do we have time to play Bill Maher?
I want to leave you with this.
Here's Bill Maher over the weekend.
Watching the sh ⁇ go down in Afghanistan, I was reminded lately of every conversation I've ever had with an immigrant, almost all of which, if we got to really talking, included the notion, oh, you people have no idea.
All you do is about and bad mouth your own country.
But if you knew about the country I came from, you'd stop on your own.
We're not the bad guys.
Oppression is what we were trying to stop in Afghanistan.
We failed, but any immigrant will tell you we've largely succeeded here.
And yet the overriding thrust of current woke ideology is that America is rotten to the core, irredeemably racist racist from the moment it was founded, and so oppressive, sexist, and homophobic, we can't find a host for the Oscars or Jeopardy.
