American Financing is our sponsor, and I want to talk to you about calling them today because if you're paying over 4% on your mortgage, you're overpaying.

Or the credit card debt, if you have any equity in your home, you can refi right now and take the money out from

the mortgage and actually pay those loans off.

Or you can just roll all of that credit card debt into your home mortgage, which then has you pay them off immediately, and you're you're only on the hook with a bank at a mortgage rate, you know, less than 4%.

You're going to be able to pay it all off a lot faster.

Save yourself hundreds of dollars every single month, maybe as much as $1,000 a month, by calling American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

All right, the radio broadcast begins in a minute.

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

This

is

the Glenback program.

I have to tell you, the only thing that is running through my mind today is what my mother used to tell me all the time when I was in a mood like this:

Son, check yourself before you wreck yourself.

And I was like, that's good, mom.

I've got to write that down for 40 years in the future.

Anyway, not in really a good mood because

our USA Olympic team lost.

Not just one,

but two.

Lost.

Wait.

Wait,

either I care about that, or it's that I didn't watch it at all and I'm actually kind of glad, strangely, that our USA Olympic team is losing.

I hang on, I'm confused.

See, this is what my mother said.

I'm wrecking myself because I didn't check myself.

Oh my.

Hey, masks are coming back in style.

We're very excited about that.

We'll tell you about it coming up in just a minute.

Deborah lives in Massachusetts.

She writes to talk about her experience with Relief Factor.

She said, Glenn, I just started taking Relief Factor four days ago.

Guess what?

I don't know what.

My hip pain, which I've been living with for years, is totally gone.

I used to have a horrible time even sleeping because of the pain, but all of it is gone now.

I love how I'm feeling these days.

Deborah, thank you.

Thank you for trying Relief Factor.

I'm so glad you're one of the 70% where it actually works.

Thanks for writing in as well.

And four days?

Shut up.

Didn't work that quickly for me.

It took me, it honestly took me about two months.

I felt the difference in 30 days,

in three weeks.

I felt a difference.

I stopped because I was denying it.

I was like, no, that's not working for me.

And then I stopped taking it.

And they're like, ow, ow, ow.

Yes, it is.

But it really

changed my life.

And it can change your life as well.

If you're living living in pain, just give Relief Factor a try like Deborah did.

Relief Factor, not a drug developed by doctors and 70% of the people try to try it, go on to order more.

So go to ReliefFactor.com.

Call 800-500-8384.

800-500-8384.

It's relief factor.com.

Oh, man, Stu.

I'm going to talk to you about the Olympics soon, but not right now.

Not right now.

We have bigger fish.

Hold me back.

Yeah, just.

Wow, I'm passionate about that.

Aren't you?

Oh, me too.

My gosh, I watched either all of it or none of it.

Guess which one?

Here's a story I want to just start with because it's Monday.

And I think we start with some good news.

Equality is finally here.

And women, you have to love these progressives because they've done so much for you already.

And yet they keep doing more.

The Senate Armed Service Committee has approved language, language change in the National Defense Authorization Act, which will expand the selective service

to

a new requirement under the threat of imprisonment.

for 18-year-old males to submit their names to the National Registry, potential military conscriptions.

Now, women have to do it too.

So let me just go down this list, Okay.

You lost girls' sports.

I can't say it that way.

You gained the right for boys to play girls' sports.

So your daughters just can never win.

And congratulations on that victory.

I think that's a very, don't you stop.

Wow, I think that's incredible.

That's a great victory.

I think that's one that women have been fighting for for a very long time.

You also have had the term mother

finally has been replaced with birthing people.

Yes.

Yes.

Wow.

And I think, again, another big victory for women all around the world, birthing people.

Me too

has pretty much made the cry of rape into kind of like a car alarm that nobody pays attention to, which I think

is another great thing.

Achievement.

Yes.

And now women, you can finally finally go to war and be drafted into war, which

if I've heard women

once,

I've heard it a million times where they're like, you know where we really need to focus?

Going to war.

Yes.

Yeah.

That's right.

They always say that.

They always say that.

They always want to be shot at.

Congratulations.

Wait a minute.

What?

They always want to be shot at.

And I think it's, well, that's saved for the African Americans in their own communities.

Oh, it's you know, now getting rid of all of the police.

And again, African Americans need police.

The progressives are serving you like crazy.

It's going well.

Is it?

It's going really well.

It is.

Especially for all those things that you've really wanted.

For instance, let's just talk about the COVID vaccine for a minute.

You know,

we know that there are people, there are crazy, crazy people that are not getting the vaccine.

Crazy people.

Dangerous.

Okay.

These people

that won't do it.

Red hats.

They're always wearing red hats.

Unfortunately, it's not the red hat thing.

It's not.

No.

From the South, though.

They're all from the South.

No, nope, nope, nope, nope.

It's mainly the Hispanic and African-American community.

Now, let me ask you a question here, Stu.

If you're an African-American and you've been being taught that white people are trying to kill you and that it's a systemic racism, So the system is trying to kill you and keep you down.

Right.

And the president reminds you of the Tostigi Institute

and you're constantly being force-fed.

You can't make it.

White people hate you.

How likely are you, especially when they're saying it's Trump people?

And the head doctor who's really pushing all of this stuff was with the Trump administration, still with with the Biden administration.

How likely are you to run out and get your vaccine?

I love this because the NFL is in the middle of this controversy now where they've implemented pretty strict rules

on whether your players have vaccines or not.

You could lose games, you could lose millions of dollars in salary.

All these pressures are now coming on these players, and a few of them are stepping up and saying, Look, I don't want to take the vaccine.

I'll sit out.

DeAndre Hopkins, one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.

You should save this for when

Jason Whitlock gets on.

Yes, I'm sure he'll go into it.

But just to give a quick background,

and what's funny about it is, like, you look at the populations of people, and as you point out, African Americans are the number one racial group that do not want to get vaccinated.

Hispanics are number two.

And you'd think

this would click with the mainstream media.

You have been telling African Americans basically that this government and this society has them at the opposite end of a gun in which white people are just on the other side, itching to pull the trigger if they can just get away with it.

All they need to do, if they could just find a way to escape the charges, they would kill every African American in this country.

They hate them so much.

Yes, sure.

By the way, take this new vaccine we came up with.

Like, well, what do you think they're going to say?

You have washed this entire population marinated them in this idea that every white person in the world is out to kill them if for riding driving down the street to the to the extent that in the middle of a pandemic you told us it was more of a public health threat of police-based racism a government representative that was so racist they just wanted to kill you.

That was a bigger threat than the actual pandemic.

So why on earth would an African-American want to take your vaccine?

Again,

I'm a fan of the vaccines.

I think people should get them in almost all circumstances.

That being said, would you be convinced of this if your news feed was constantly non-stop, police are killing black people, the Trump administration was the most evil racist

organization in modern history.

Screw Hitler.

He was nothing.

We're talking Donald Trump here.

By the way, the guy who was the face of the response to COVID when Donald Trump was president is now the face of the vaccine.

He's going to go on television 900 times a day and tell you to take it.

So wait a minute.

Are you saying that, let me just use a moment from history.

Are you saying that

Native Americans, while they were being round up by the Democratic president and Andrew Johnson,

that

if Andrew Johnson would have said, or Jackson would have said,

you need to get a vaccine before you go out, are you saying that the Native Americans wouldn't have trusted him?

Another example.

Let's say

you're FDR and you're rounding up all the Japanese.

And before you go, Japanese people,

you should get a vaccination.

Are you saying that the Japanese shouldn't trust FDR?

They may be a tad skeptical.

Okay, one more example.

Okay, let's say you're President Biden and everything that your party has done since the beginning of time was keeping people in chains, or

when that finally was abolished because, you know, a bunch of people from the North came down and killed a bunch of people that were Democrats

and they stopped it.

And then you went into Reconstruction, started the Klan, everything else.

Then you were

part of resegregating the military, making sure that Jim Crow laws were passed.

Then you had the Great society, which has destroyed the black family.

Then you had a guy who was the president who had, there was better job and better employment and better employment numbers as far as incomes go as well for black and Hispanics.

And then you came in and you reversed all that.

Are you saying

that those people might

come under suspicion?

Yeah, it's a shocking idea.

That is weird.

And look, I'm a tad skeptical of the...

Look, they know about the Tuskegee experiments.

Well, first of all, they know about the Tuskegee experiments because what you've told them about it, right?

The history of this has been completely manipulated.

Was it a good medical experiment?

No.

I will say no on that.

However, did they inject them with vaccines to give them illness?

No, even though everyone seems to think that.

Did they inject them with syphilis to give them syphilis?

No,

even though people seem to think that.

What they didn't do was give them treatment for syphilis when they could have cured it.

They wanted to see how

this would progress if untreated.

A terrible idea, by the way, a terrible experiment run by a head physician who was black and a head nurse

who was black.

Hang on.

I don't know about those two, but I can guarantee you it was a progressive that was behind this idea.

Let's not blame it on the black doctor.

Let's be serious here.

It was a progressive that was like, hey, what happens if we just let them fester?

That does sound like a progressive idea.

The bottom line is, though, like...

Why would you need to go to the Tuskegee experiment?

There's no 24-year-old NFL player that's like, I just, I mean, those Tuskegee experiments.

They're talking about how you're saying right now there's a genocide going on of black people.

That's what they're worried about.

You are telling them that every other second, a black person gets pulled over and shot for no reason reason in broad daylight and no one does anything about it.

Would you trust that organization to help you with your help with the people?

Well, only if I was also told that it was systemic in the government and there was no way of stopping it.

The people who are all white, they don't even know

they're killing people.

They're persecuting black people.

Then I might be, then I might be a little hesitant.

Even the people you used to think were your friends that are absolutely not racist, now you're supposed to think they are racist and actually are out to get you with a system that is crushing your souls.

But trust that system for your medical care.

Except, yeah, I mean, you're supposed to trust,

you're not supposed to trust any white people because all white people are guilty, except for the white people who are in the administration.

That's true.

The people who wrote the books about this are usually innocent.

They are very trustworthy.

Again, African Americans, all of this.

You have the Democrats to thank.

Just like women, congratulations.

You can now be forced to go fight a war.

I think a lot of progress is being made.

Battle for our age is taking place in our minds and our hearts of our nation children.

Today, all across America, millions of kids are having their ideology shaped by soulless machines of both Hollywood and our own public schools.

From the lessons they're taught to the books they're told they ought to read, our kids are caught in a thick swamp of bad ideas.

Wait until I tell you the latest of what's happening in our schools.

They don't care.

These teachers don't care.

They're just doing it anyway.

The best way to combat ideas is to promote good ones.

Don't silence voices.

Give them something to hang their hat on.

The Tuttle Twins books are an exploration of the things that make us a freer, more perfect union.

They teach the accurate history of the United States.

They explain how things like the free market and limited government work.

10 Second Station ID.

Now, wait a minute, Stu.

Maybe, maybe we could have white babies

do the injecting and the research on the virus.

Because white babies...

Oh, damn it.

I just realized even white babies are racist.

They are.

That's right.

From birth.

Yeah, I just read that book, and man,

it's really kind of wrecked my weekend.

Anti-racist baby?

Was it that one?

Yeah.

Because that one is more about teaching your baby to be anti-racist so that we can lock in this

grift for Ibram X.

Kendi for children who grow up as babies for 20, 30 years, 40 years from now.

He could still be raking in the cash for speeches.

It'll be great.

So, Team USA falls to France.

It's the first Olympic men's basketball law since 2004.

We lost to France.

France.

Yeah.

Like just to say it again, France.

It's amazing how these guys who spend all this time telling us what a terrible country we have are not representing the flag the way we'd want.

What a weird thing.

I, for one, am surprised that these NBA players who have been constantly

basically lighting up the country and telling us how terrible it's been for the past five years would not be able to perform in this patriotic ceremony.

It's a stunner.

Well, here's

one of the problems, Stu.

They were very tired from being so woke.

They're woke all the time.

When do they sleep?

When do they sleep?

That's a good point.

They need your sleep and you can't have it anymore.

You need to be woke.

You're woke all the time.

And

I think it's great also.

You know, last week,

the women's softball team lost a first.

I'm sincerely hoping it's not the last.

May I ask, were you old enough to remember the Olympics when we had the evil empire of the Russians to root against?

Yeah,

loosely, yeah.

I kind of feel that way.

Where I don't really follow it.

I didn't really follow it then.

I just, the only time I would follow it was like to root against, you know, the Soviets.

And I'd be like, yeah.

And now, you know, when the, when the volleyball team loses, I'm kind of like, yeah.

ooh, wait a minute.

What am I doing?

You know what I mean?

I'm almost rooting not against America, but against the frauds who say they represent America.

Yeah, I could see how that would inch into your thinking, especially with people like the NBA players who have spent the volleyball team.

And I don't know anything about the volleyball team.

What's her name?

The lesbian with the purple hair.

She's soccer, isn't she?

Oh, yeah, that's what I mean.

Not volleyball, soccer.

Soccer.

Oh, soccer.

The soccer team.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

I can see that.

I don't know my sports.

I know it was involving a round ball.

That's it.

And you nailed that part.

I did.

I will say.

I thank you.

I root against, I always root against the U.S.

soccer team, both male and female.

Always.

And I've done that forever, mainly because I don't want it to become more popular and covered more.

You know what it's going to happen?

So

I want the U.S.

to be the embarrassment of the world when it comes to soccer because soccer is so terrible.

But this has just added fuel to the fire.

And I will say,

I do remember growing up, you know, watching like the dream team.

You know what I mean?

Like when

the NBA players were dominant, it was so much fun to watch i love those guys you now look at it and it's just it's just tough to care i they do everything they can to make me not care about their sport everything they can And I love sports.

You know, Gunn, and I'm not a boycotter at all.

Like, I don't, I'm against that.

You'd watch, yeah, you'd watch the devil himself if he was playing.

Yeah, because I love.

Look,

if he's beating LeBron, Stu is there.

He's wearing, I'm with Satan, the t-shirt.

He's wearing it.

He's buying it.

Especially if he's playing for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Yeah.

And that would be the time team to sign.

We all realize that the Eagles would sign, Satan.

But if they did, I probably, you know, I don't want to say that.

We might come close to cheering him off.

I will say, if like...

You think there might be some eternal ramifications for this particular comedy line?

I thought this joke might be a little bit too expensive.

I thought by month eight in the fires of hell, I might

regret it.

Yeah, you'd be like, I shouldn't have made that joke.

Nope.

That joke went too far.

That went too far.

But look, I wish the Catholics were right about that whole purgatory thing.

Should have been Catholic.

Should have been Catholic.

But it is that, it is that, like, I'll look past a lot of that.

But it's one thing to every era of sports has had people who disagree with you, who think crazy, crazy things.

Go back in sports history.

You're going to find a million of them that believe all sorts of insane things.

This is like, it's so

propagated by the league itself.

It's the only thing you're allowed to say.

You're not even allowed to have the alternate opinion anymore.

You're not even allowed to say, you know what, I think, you know, this is this was, you know, I think Donald Trump did a good job, or I think maybe there isn't systemic racism.

I mean, look at, you know, Drew Brees is the ultimate example of this.

A Hall of Fame quarterback, one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game.

And he came out and basically said, like, yeah,

I'm with you on all of this,

all the systemic racism stuff, totally on board with all of it.

I just don't think you should kneel for the flag.

I had relatives who've served in the military, I just don't like that as a particular protest.

He was almost run out of the league.

I mean, they

he had to beg for forgiveness because he didn't want people disrespecting the flag in the United States.

That's where we are right now.

More in a second.

This is the Glenback Program.

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

Hey, Stu.

I just want you to know.

Yes.

I love the joke.

It counts.

Just because you're not.

No, I stopped.

No, it was done.

No, I think he's right.

Just because you thought it's already.

Anyway, American Financing.

I want you to look at the historically low interest rates we've been seeing.

It's not hard to think it'd be a good idea to give American Financing a call for a free mortgage review.

No obligation, no pressure, no upfront hidden fees, just a simple conversation about your loan and options that could fit you better.

Imagine

walking away with a thousand bucks a month in savings, and that's possible, especially if you do a consolidation loan and pay off those high-interest credit cards.

The market is in your favor.

When it comes to financing right now, it might be

the perfect time because this might not last very much longer.

Promo code is Glenn.

We have Jason Whitlock coming up later in the program.

You're going to love his commentary on this stuff as well.

Blazetv.com/slash Glenn.

This is the Glenbeck program, and welcome back to Mr.

Pat Gray, who has been on hiatus and vacation for the last week.

Wow.

Wow.

World hasn't changed at all, has it?

No.

No.

Uh-uh.

We're thinking about the masks coming back.

Yeah.

We got that going for us.

Yeah.

In fact, as we were driving through St.

Louis, they were reinstituting the mandate.

Yeah.

Did you put yours on?

I did not.

You did not?

No.

I did not.

Even though they were reinstituting.

Even though they were reinstituting.

their freeways.

You said, nope, I'm not doing it.

I'm not doing it.

I'm not doing it.

Wow.

You are a rebel.

I am living on the edge.

I am scared.

How are the people of Missouri and

Illinois?

Because you were up in that area.

Yeah, I was.

How are they doing with the mask thing?

They're done with it.

They're done with the web.

Yeah, they're done with the mask thing.

Really?

We went all over Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Iowa.

You know how to have a good time.

We do.

Yeah.

We do.

We saw more cornfields that you can shake a stick at.

And I've been shaking sticks at cornfields cornfields for cornfield.

Does it work or no?

It really is not as much fun as advertised.

That's weird.

Yeah.

It's weird.

Yeah.

Nobody's wearing a mask.

Really?

Nobody.

A few waitresses, but that's it.

Usually in the restaurants, they weren't even wearing a mask.

But I will tell you the thing that is going on is the employee shortage at restaurants.

Oh, yeah, big time.

It is critical.

Many restaurants completely shut down because they can't get enough employees.

And

It's not because of COVID.

It's because they can't get the employee, which might be sort of related.

Might be sort of

related in a way.

I'm shaking my stick right now

at that point.

To see if that's what it is.

And keep shaking it.

Because I think it might.

I think it's on to something.

I'm not, but the stick is.

Yes.

So,

you know, there's been a lot of stuff going on while you were away.

Don't know if you heard, but

we're going to be relegated to the ether

if we ask questions now that the CDC or the White House doesn't want us to ask.

Yeah, how dare you?

Yeah.

Why would you ask something like that?

Sure.

It happened the other day with Jen Saki being asked a question she didn't really like.

Vaccination status is important to school.

They're vaccinated here in the White House Medical Unit for the most part.

Go ahead.

Kelly, I'm sorry.

I'll come to you next.

Two questions that I can.

One, this administration has long claimed that you're trying to be the most transparent history.

If that's the case, why won't you just release the number of breakthrough cases that you've had of vaccinated staffers?

Well, I think first we're in a very different place than we were six to seven months ago as it relates to the virus.

And as many medical experts have said inside and outside of the government, those who are vaccinated are protected from serious illness.

Most are asymptomatic if they are individuals who are vaccinated who get the virus.

And

we are in a different place in terms of the impact of individuals who may have, as you said, breakthrough cases.

So why not just provide the number?

Are you trying to hide something?

No, but why do you need to have that information?

Case of transparency, the interest of the public,

having a better understanding of the pressure.

Why do you need that information?

Well, first, there are the CDC tracks, and let me give you this information, too.

She goes on to answer questions that were not related to that one.

Right, but she doesn't like that question.

But she doesn't like that question.

Why do they need that question under the Trump administration?

Yeah, right.

Yeah.

why do any of us need any question answered by you isn't that what we're supposed to do and then you answer them I thought that's how it worked what is our arrangement here what are

you answer questions and I ask them seems like you make $174,000 a year to answer the questions I ask and we should point out she is our employee she is not like people can look at that completely been flipped on it yeah it's been it's it's a it's a position that's responsible to the public.

The press secretary is supposed to give us information.

It's not a campaign official, which is what they've become over the past couple decades.

That's for sure.

But I mean, she's supposed to, her job is to get information from the White House to us.

It's not to defend President Biden.

It's not to ask why you need that information.

No.

Because I just want it.

Yeah.

How about that?

How about that?

Plus, it's my job to get it.

How about that?

Plus, the American people want to know.

How about that?

Crazy.

It's just unbelievable what's going on now.

But like everything else, it's been completely flipped on its head.

And we apparently have no right to any information anymore.

It's almost as if everything is inside out and upside down.

Isn't it, dull?

Isn't it?

The goal was to create enough chaos to turn us upside down and inside out so you won't recognize anything.

It's not going to happen.

Absolutely happened.

It's absolutely happened.

And they've taken their mask off, too.

They don't care anymore.

Well, they should put that mask back on because fauci says they should put that mask back on

i've i've i am not as anti-mask as i thought i was really really yeah i'm i'm thinking about wearing my mask uh into stores and you know any place that says you have a mask i'm going to wear it and i say yes i wear it as a hat that doesn't i'm not sure that's exactly what it is i think it's like a little amish hat i think it's like one of those little

it is a nice hat it's a nice hat yeah it's a very nice hat and it stops the the satellites that are spying on your brainwaves, potentially deflects some of that.

No, it doesn't.

I already checked.

It doesn't.

I thought that too originally, and then I started doing some research on it.

I'm like, damn.

Well, because I thought the tinfoil works as a conducting.

It does.

It does.

It's what the government wants you to do to avoid the brainwaves.

Tinfoil tax.

That's why they've been pushing it all these years.

So,

by the way, did you hear the

audio of Fauci

defending the funding now of of

the Wuhan lab?

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, that happened, guys.

No, that was last week.

Oh, that's last week.

Listen to this audio.

Critics say the Wuhan lab experiments were nonetheless risky, whether or not they fit that category.

And obviously, the Chinese government is not a good faith partner.

They're not allowing transparency.

They're not allowing a real investigation.

Everyone but the USA.

With Chinese policy going forward, given that the Chinese government won't allow any real investigation.

Do you still think the U.S.

government should collaborate with labs like Wuhan, especially on research that experts consider risky?

Well, you know, Jake, if you go back to when this research really started and look at the scientific rationale for it, it was a peer-reviewed proposal that was peer-reviewed and given a very high rating for the importance of why it should be done to be able to go and do a survey of what was going on among the bat population because everyone in the world was trying to figure out what the original source of the original SARS-CoV-1 was.

And in that context, the research was done, it was very regulated, it was reviewed, it was given progress reports, it was published in the open literature.

So I think if you look at the ultimate back rationale, why that was started, it was almost as if you didn't pursue that research, you would be negligent because we were trying to find out how you can prevent this from happening again.

You'd be negligent

if you didn't do the research that they didn't do, according to him.

But it was all peer-reviewed and watched carefully and monitoring.

So, you know, it was done carefully, but we didn't do it.

But we would have been negligent had we not do it.

Yeah.

Ever been a bigger lying sack of crap than Anthony Fauci?

I don't know that there ever has been.

I mean, is there anything?

Oh, yes, there has.

Has there?

Yes, there has been.

I don't know.

He's just,

he's just

prolific.

Say it for me.

Polifer.

He just doesn't.

He's prolific.

He is a prolific liar.

He is.

It's very narrow.

It's only about COVID, but it's very broad inside the narrow category.

It's almost everything he says.

Is anyone questioning what he said?

Like, no one's questioning whether like, this research was started to begin a pandemic.

Like, no one thinks that, like, they were like, you know what, let's start a pandemic.

We'll start some research to get it going.

Like, no one understands that the idea of a false premise.

Right.

The beginning of this, yes, we can understand why you'd think about this.

But he continually does this and plays these semantic games where,

like, they said, okay, gain of function research is banned.

And so.

Hey, let's go through a process to try to justify that this isn't the definition of gain of function so we can do it.

No, they did that after.

Right.

Yes.

They started a peer-reviewed.

Yeah.

All said that it was.

that it was gain of function, and it was peer-reviewed.

I don't know if you heard that.

Documents of titanium.

Period.

Peer-reviewed.

But they were good.

They were titled gain of function.

Yeah, but they were peer-reviewed.

Right.

And

closely scrutinized.

They peer-reviewed their way into

being able to do this.

The reason they wrote it.

They set up their own guidelines.

Yes.

And then they said, how do we get around these guidelines?

Correct.

And so they got around the guidelines.

Then

after it was quote unquote a success, then

they had to publish a paper on it, peer-reviewed paper, by the way.

And in it, it said that

this was done before

the United States held back the funding, even though we gave back the funding back to them.

And it said, but

a peer-reviewed review was done by peers.

And they looked into it, and this one can continue.

Oh, that's good to hear.

So that's good to hear.

It was peer-reviewed the whole time and closely scrutinized.

And like, that's a.

Like, the question wasn't even about that.

It was about should this continue in the future?

And he wouldn't even, he didn't even come remotely.

You don't need that answer.

Uh, what you need is how many peers of mine have reviewed it.

Okay, now, yes.

How many peers have reviewed this?

Lots.

A lot.

Lots.

Is it peer reviewed?

The vast majority of my peers.

Wow.

Yeah.

Really?

Yeah.

How many peers do you actually have?

More than I can count.

Okay.

Why do you need that?

That's a lot.

I don't know.

Why do you need that question?

I redraw the question.

You're getting a little hostile.

I apologize.

Why are you questioning me?

I shouldn't.

I shouldn't apologize.

I'm sorry.

I would accept your apology, but you're white, and so you can never do enough.

It's true to apologize to you.

Thank you.

Welcome back, Pat Gray.

Nice to have you back in the studio.

Good to be back as well.

Are you still hosting that program called Pat Gray Unleashed available everywhere?

I I am.

It usually happens, in fact, just about every time, right before this show.

How would people, how would one acquire this program?

Why are you asking that show?

We've discounted it $100,000.

This man is magnanimous.

This man has gone the extra mile, even just answering a question that shouldn't have been asked in the first place.

The Glen Beck Program.

So

I don't know about you, but

I love the Cleveland

Guardians.

Love that name.

I think

they had to be hammered.

I think

my guess is that those involved in changing the Cleveland Indians name said, I can't,

I cannot do this sober.

And so,

you know, maybe,

you know, one of the head guys was out on the bridge and like, you know, Bill's going to kill himself if we change the name of the Indians.

No, he's not.

Yes, he's out on the bridge right now, standing next to that big, that big statue on the bridge.

Hey, maybe that's it.

That statue is called the Guardian.

Why don't we call them the Cleveland Guardians?

Now, I believe that's the way it happened, and I would like to submit some evidence.

What did he say?

The Cleveland Guardians already taken.

There's another team called the Cleveland Guardians in their own town.

And they even have their own website.

Nobody, nobody, nobody, no, nobody checked the dot-com thing?

It does seem like an important idea to check ClevelandGuardians.com before.

Only if you believe in the internet.

Yeah, I mean, if you think there's a future.

It's a passing trend.

Yeah, if you think the interwebs have a future, you usually would go to ClevelandGuardians.com, which is a male roller derby team.

I never thought of that.

I know.

You think before you book Tom Hanks to come in and narrate your launch video, you go to the website.

What kind of attorney do they have?

Because they had to go and search Cleveland Guardians before.

Did they not?

I can't believe they didn't.

It had to be.

Maybe it was one of these things where the owner of the site was like, screw you guys.

If you change the name, I don't want you to have it.

And they've already given up and they said, well, we'll name it theClevelandGuardians.com or whatever.

I don't know.

I don't know what they did.

But all I can tell you is you should probably have control of the website.

This is why it's difficult to rename a team now.

There's a guy in Washington who

predicted, as it turns out correctly, that the world would become much more woke and the Washington Redskins would no longer be allowed.

And so he went out and he bought Washington whatevers.com and came up with 100 different things and booked all of them.

Now,

what they wound up doing, they couldn't come up with a team name and they've decided to just go with Washington Football Team, which is hilarious.

Washington Football Team.com.

It's not surprising.

That was one of the things he didn't have.

Right.

I actually think that one turned out to be brilliant.

And I liked it at the time.

Most people hated it.

Now, I would have preferred staying with Washington redskins because all the complaints about them were stupid but if you had to change the name i like washington football team because i'm an nfc east fan i'm an eagles fan i my dad was a giants fan one of my good friends is a redskins fan everyone here is a cowboys fan no one on earth calls them the washington football team they just keep calling them the redskins Because there's no substitute.

If they came out with the Washington Guardians, eventually people would transition.

No one calls them the football team.

They either call them Washington or they say the Redskins.

And so essentially,

the team, in a way, has not really been renamed.

At some point, the woke left is going to notice this, and they're going to make them change it again.

I have a feeling that Cleveland, the Guardians, haven't really officially changed their name either.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

By the way, I want to talk to you about Bilbar.

Oh, a nice reminder for

us to have one.

They're delicious.

It's Bilt Bar.

This is one of their newer flavors.

This is Grasshopper.

This is Grass.

Grasshopper cookie.

I think this one actually is no longer available.

I believe.

I believe this is one of their limited time flavors.

They have nine

constants.

This one is...

I'm saving in this box.

Actually, you gave this one to me already.

No, I think I need that back.

No, it's probably bad.

It's probably bad.

This is a candy bar.

Thank you.

This is a candy bar more than it is a protein bar.

It's really healthy for you.

Made with 100% real chocolate, zero guilt, 100% great taste,

150 calories, 17 grams of protein, 6 grams of sugar, 5 net carbs.

I mean, they're really, really, really good.

It's more of a candy bar.

Try them for yourself.

They have nine different flavors.

They're coming out with a new one tomorrow.

I'll tell you about tomorrow.

It's built.com.

Use the promo code Beck15.

Built.com.

Promo code Beck15.

All right, you sick twisted freak.

Hour Hour two of the program begins in a minute.

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

This

is

the Glenback program.

Hello, America.

Well, we finally have captured.

Captured one of the Capitol Riot suspects.

He's been napped.

Man, I feel so much safer now, don't you?

He was snapped by the feds with the help of a dating app, Bumble.

And

so that's, you know, just, hey, don't worry about, don't worry about the Fed using all these apps and, you know, making sure that they have back doors to everybody to get all your information.

You are perfectly safe.

You just don't have to do anything, you know, that is wrong.

You know, like, like, don't wear a mask, you know, that happens.

Or if you disagree with the government in any way, that would probably be bad.

But other than that, I mean, what do you have to worry about?

The Glenn Beck program.

I want to talk to you about the Justice Department here in about 60 seconds.

Standby.

Alicia lives in California.

She writes in about her experience with a relief factory.

She says, I'm a grocery store worker.

Ever since the first coronavirus shutdowns, I've had to work double shifts pretty regularly.

Well,

she's 53.

Why, I mean,

why did all the young people leave?

Anyway, she's been working double shifts.

My two bad knees were just not getting any rest, and I would literally have to limp to and from bed every night and every morning.

A few weeks into Relief Factor, and the pain has decreased substantially.

I am so thankful for this amazing product.

Alicia, I'm so glad that you took Relief Factor.

I wish it could help with the...

pain in the in the ass that is California, but you'd have to move for that relief.

Thanks for writing in.

Relief Factor will change your life.

of the people who try it go on to order more month after month, and I want you just to try it for three weeks.

If you see no results at all for three weeks, then stop taking it.

You're part of the 30% where it doesn't work.

But if you're part of that 70%, you get your life back.

Yet another Capital Riot suspect has been nabbed.

Thanks to, do we have, Film Noir?

Do we have do we have?

I need something very appropriate for this

crime update because

forget about all of the people that are being shot in the streets.

914 this weekend, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Let's talk about the real crime and the real criminals.

Yes, that's right.

I'm a cop.

Yet another capital riot suspect has been nabbed.

Thanks to his stupid boasts and photos he posted on social media.

This time on the dating app Bumblebee.

Our own FBI was watching and working with Bumblebee.

Houston business owner Andro Take, 32.

discussed his participation in the riot on Bumble.

Yes!

And he sent several photos.

I don't know

why they said that all of a sudden, but anyway, he was a Bumble user and he was trying to get a date.

And he said, I was at the Capitol Riot and oh yeah, I was there with pepper spray.

Well, he's in the slammer today, Jack.

And he's going to

like his new date options.

Now, I don't know about you, but I,

that doesn't make me feel better.

Doesn't make me feel better.

I mean, I'm glad that a guy who, if he really did something wrong

and he did pepper spray the police, I'm glad that he's in jail.

But I don't like the fact that the government has done everything, including, you know, started to partner with apps and Facebook and Google and everybody else, including the banks, to just hand them our whereabouts.

I don't know.

China sounds like China.

I think I agree with everything you've said here.

Thank you.

Even the musical choice.

Even the musical choice.

And that I also am happy that if someone did something wrong, they're in jail.

And also,

I am concerned about the way the government and tech are combining.

However, if the guy actually typed I was anthra.

I believe it less.

It's just, I kind of have a tough time tying this particular incident into anything other than the guy being an idiot.

Yes.

Yes, I agree.

But it was with the help of Bumble, they say.

It's true.

They say.

So it was a help.

I mean, if it was like, you know, if the guy posts it and somebody wants to call the FBI, that's because you're a dummy.

I mean, it's not like, remember when, you know, these people,

they'll do something, they'll rob something, they'll be like, look, I'm just looping this door.

Well, in the good old days, you'd go to jail for that.

And you wouldn't have any sympathy because you were stealing.

What are you posting it online for?

You think cops don't watch Facebook?

That's not going to get to somebody?

And that's the line, I guess, right?

If Bumble's reading private messages and then reporting them, I have not been on Bumble in quite some time, Glenn.

This is going to be shocking.

But if that's there all the time.

I know you're there all the time.

Oh, my God.

It's weird that it's actually your homepage

for your web browser.

I love me so much.

If I'm happily married, I would never do anything.

But, you know, just to let women know that, hey, maybe, maybe.

You know what what I mean?

Just to help them through the day.

Just to help them through the day.

Get them through it.

I mean, there's no chance of me doing it.

There's got to be a private messaging option, though, I would assume on the server.

No, no, I don't use it.

The only thing I know about Bumble, and except I've had friends who have been on Bumble, and they describe something called the Bumble Mountain.

Have you heard of this?

No, I have not.

So the Bumble Mountain is.

Never even heard of Bumble.

It's one of the big.

It's like

almost as big as,

maybe not almost as big.

It was one of the developers of what's the swipe left, swipe right one.

All of them.

What is it?

Are they all like that?

They're all the same now.

What's the main one, though, that everyone.

No, Bumble's not the main, the number one Tinder.

That's the one I'm thinking of.

So Tinder is.

I was thinking it was fire, but I knew that was wrong, so I didn't say it.

Okay.

But it was close.

Close, you're close.

Yeah, I was Tinder.

So I believe Bumble was created by a woman who worked at Tinder.

Left that because she felt like women were objectified and such on

Tinder, which is a stunner.

The whole

swipe left, swipe, right.

Right.

You're just judging them on their looks.

How is that shallow?

I think I have the story right.

Okay, so she goes and then she starts it.

And I believe Bumble is one where maybe the women have to reach out first.

Okay, I have this right.

So every guy I've ever talked to who's been on Bumble says there's something called the Bumble Mountain, which is basically you go on Bumble, like you go to a new city or you're in a new area, you go on Bumble, and the first like...

25 women you see that you're matched with are incredible.

And that's, you're at the top of the mountain.

And then for the rest of your time on Bumble, you're just going, you're rolling down a mountain.

And

the women get less and less attractive as you go down it.

So that's Bumble Mountain.

In case you were wondering, in case you were thinking today, I'm going to say, hey, you know,

I was inside the Capitol spraying pepper spray at people.

You've only got up the first 25 or so that it's worth it.

Then take that information.

I never thought I would get a dating tip from Jay Leno, but I have a good dating tip from Jay Leno.

Do you really?

Yeah, I do.

I do.

I love this.

Jay Leno said, you know, I talked to all my friends who are, you know, they're making it with some hot babe, you know, and they're like, oh, Nitz, she's crazy, but the sex is great.

And

he said, yes, but when the sex isn't so important, you're just left with crazy.

I think that's really good.

I mean, let's not, let's just remember the sex kind of, you know,

is not as crazy and great

as it usually, you know, is in the beginning.

I'm I'm digging a hole here, and I just realized it as a

blame it on Jay Leno.

Luckily, this isn't being broadcast to an area your wife could possibly listen to.

Let's move on, shall we?

Okay, so

the

wow.

So

we have something else.

So we have them going after

this very, very bad guy with pepper spray.

Forget about

forget about Portland.

They got him.

They finally got him, and they've done everything they can can to get him.

Now,

I just want to throw, that's the Justice Department doing this.

The Justice Department also

dropped the cases against

Chinese researchers accused of hiding their affiliates, their affiliation with the Chinese military.

Okay.

Yeah, I mean,

you know, we were trying to root out all the alleged China, you know, intelligence gathering people here in the U.S., but that was so-oh,

last year.

We've decided decided that we don't need to find those people.

And so

they've dropped the visa fraud charges against the Chinese researchers that were here.

Well, what possible

importance could a bunch of Chinese researchers say?

Thank you for saying that.

Everyone was thinking it.

And, you know, it just took you to say it.

I mean, what?

That just seems like a waste of time and money.

You know?

Yeah.

Why go after the Chinese right now?

They seem like they're in a good place.

Nothing wrong going on over there.

You know, sure, they've built some new

apartment complexes

behind some large walls.

Right.

Just over 300 of them.

Yeah.

And they're great.

And they're great.

And they've got good schooling in there.

Good, really good education camps.

Yes.

Camp activities.

All right.

So let me give you this one, too.

The Justice Department is just trying to clear the books.

You know what I mean?

They just want to, they're so darn busy.

They just have to, you know, make some priorities.

Justice Department has

dropped the investigation into Tony Podesta

without any charges.

Now, that's good.

Yeah, well,

is it?

Is it?

I mean, the Podesta group was deeply involved in Ukraine.

And the minute they fired Man,

what was his name?

He ran the Trump campaign for a few months and then he was arrested.

Oh, Manafort.

Yeah, Manafort.

Paul Manafort.

When they went after Paul Manafort,

Paul Manafort was working with the Podesta group and Tony Podesta.

And

as soon as they arrested him, Tony Podesta kind of went in hiding.

He shut his office, immediately fired everybody the same day

and fired everybody.

He was like, oh, we're not doing this anymore.

I don't know what just going on vacation to some unknown country that doesn't have extradition rights.

That's what I want to do.

And it was one of the most successful lobbying firms.

There was no reason to do it other than there is dirt.

So the Justice Department started to investigate him, but they're so busy now, they just shut it down and are like, There's nothing to see here.

Now, in a completely unrelated news story, Tony Podesta has a new job.

He is the chief lobbyist now for Huawei.

You know, the Chinese firm that's run by the Communist Party.

Yeah, I'm familiar with it.

Yeah, that is trying to get 5G because then they can take all of our information and have control of everything that comes out of the United States.

Where there's widespread international agreement that they're doing shady things.

Yes.

And we've banned them.

We've gone and well, that was so old last year.

Yeah, it does feel like a last year.

Tony Podesta's on the case now.

So he's going to make sure everything is on the up and up.

And he's free to do so because he no longer has that investigation hanging over his head.

By the way, the Justice Department also has dropped the probe.

This is all this weekend.

You know, they were working late.

They were like, we got to prioritize, guys.

We have too many things.

The Justice Department has dropped the probe on the deaths at the

New York nursing homes.

Nothing to see there.

So they're not going to get

in involved at all

in that.

So I think we can trust our Justice Department is on the right track.

Don't you?

They're not looking into corruption.

Oh, by the way, not looking into Hunter Biden either.

I mean, there's rumors that they are, but not really.

I mean,

he's got his big art show this weekend.

And I don't know if you know this, but his art show, you know, he was told that

he had to be ethical here, and he couldn't know who was buying anything.

And so he's not, although he does have a cocktail party with all of the potential buyers prior to the art sale.

So, but they are under strict orders not to say, hey, I'm going to buy that one for $500,000.

You know what I'm saying?

So he's, I mean, he might know who was in the room, but he doesn't know who bought anything.

So, and that's pinky promise.

They are not going to, by the way, do you know who they're marketing this to?

It's weird because it's come out in the United States, but they're not marketing it to the United States.

They're marketing his art world to all of the art collectors in Asia and China.

Huh.

That's so weird.

Now, I know you have a big art show coming up.

Yeah, this weekend, too.

Yeah.

Now,

are they also marketing this to lots of Chinese?

No, not a not a not a soul in China.

Like any Saudis.

No, no, no.

Nope.

Nope.

Nobody in Ukraine.

No one in Ukraine.

Nope.

Just strictly Americans.

Because I thought maybe just Ukraine was a big art market.

No, no.

Well, it is at certain times.

It is.

So, yeah, when Democrats are in office, big.

Big art interest.

Big art interest in Ukraine.

You know, some would say this is money laundering, but I wouldn't say that.

I mean, this is a guy who's just learned to love art just recently.

I mean, had no...

No inkling anywhere that he was even into art or wanted to make art until this year.

And I mean, I could see after all that work why they would go for $500,000.

Well, because you've been doing, making art for a very long time,

and you've been, you've had a lot of national attention on your art in the past.

You were named one of the

most 100 most influential artists in America.

Yes.

By a real art magazine at one point.

So you have a pretty long history of having interest in art and

even selling artists paintings.

not sure.

I will tell you,

this week, by the way, the art show begins this week.

It opens today at Park City Fine Art in Park City, Utah.

And you don't have to go.

You can see some of the stuff online.

I also did an Instagram of the stuff I'm boxing up today

and shipping out because I'll be there on

Saturday.

And, you know, you can just call them if you want to buy.

Now, here's the thing.

They are pricey.

They're not $500,000.

Which is interesting because know, you're certainly more famous than Hunter Bindon.

Well, maybe not infamous.

I don't know.

Yeah, maybe.

Maybe.

Maybe.

Hunter Bindin isn't.

Other than his dad being president, he is not a massive public.

So here's the thing.

I've decided to, you know, my dad was a baker.

My dad was a baker.

That's right.

Okay.

So

I'm just, I'm saying, I want you to listen carefully.

I would be very disappointed to find out that anyone who bought any of my art had the opportunity to ask my dad baking questions.

Be very disappointed.

I'm not saying that if you buy one, you get to meet my dad.

You're saying I get to maybe like talk to you.

No, no, I'm saying I'd be very disappointed if that ever happened.

Why would you point that out?

I didn't even know that.

I just, I know.

I just thought it was important that people knew if you're going with the intent of meeting my dad,

that's not part of the deal.

Okay.

It's not part of the deal.

And if anybody, you know, associated with me would ever make that as a side deal, I'd be very disappointed because I'm only there to sell the art.

And you're not going to know who bought it.

Except you are going to meet with all of the people who buy it.

I'm going to meet with people, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, Wednesday night.

I'm meeting with all the people.

But you're not going to know who actually bought it.

Other than the

fact that.

And the only ones that are there at that party where I meet them are the people who are coming to buy the art.

I mean, perhaps.

But if we were in an era of encrypted communication apps, there might be a way for two two people to communicate these details.

But we don't lose that.

No, we don't use that.

I don't even know about those encrypted apps.

I don't even know about them.

You don't know about them.

Nope.

Nope.

And my dad's baking secrets are his secrets.

Okay.

I have never seen anything like this thing.

With Hunter Biden?

I can't believe it.

What Joe Biden needs to do is, look, look, my son's had a lot of problems.

I can't stop him legally from painting.

However, if I hear word one, he won't.

That someone is buying these paintings.

I will never do business with anyone who buys one of his paintings.

Don't buy his paintings.

That is what he should say as president of the United States.

The corruption is so clear and obvious here.

And instead, they're like, well, what we're going to do is not tell anyone anything.

And that's going to solve the problem.

What if we hide all the information?

And what if we don't tell anyone who's buying it, who's selling it, how much it went for?

This is blatantly corrupt.

It makes it easier for him.

Why does the president of the United States need, for what, a couple million dollars to play these games?

It's embarrassing.

Because his son is snorting most of it.

All right, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

You and I have a voice, and it is time to make sure that Big Mobile hears our voice.

For far too long, mobile companies like Verizon have been taking money that we give them, and they're spending it on things like Planned Parenthood.

That's their right as a company.

They can do that.

But I don't want to help them support Planned Parenthood every time I pay my phone bill.

Every time I make a phone call, I'm helping abort babies.

That's insane.

It is time to switch to Patriot Mobile.

Don't put up with what Big Mobile wants any longer.

You don't have to.

And right now, they have two great offers to choose from.

Either get 50% off your first two months or $100 off any phone.

Both offers come with Premier Activation.

Just go to patriotmobile.com/slash Beck for details.

Patriot Mobile has the broadest nationwide coverage and uses the same cell towers as the major providers.

So you're like, well, I don't know.

I mean, Verizon, they got a lot of things covered.

Yes, including all the Planned Parenthood clinics.

Instead, they use the same cell towers.

And it's cheaper.

It's better.

It's on our side.

By the way,

you know,

this whole thing with China

is just absolutely crazy.

But there is one thing that makes me happy.

LeBron James

is still being blocked by China.

They refuse to release Space Jam 2.

Oh, no.

That's a big deal to LeBron James.

He's been playing up to China the whole time, and now he's in a big movie that sucks.

But I don't know if the Chinese, maybe the Chinese are like, that's great.

I don't know.

I'm just glad that he's not allowed to market himself anymore than he already is.

The guy sold his soul to China.

And now China is like, yeah, no food for you.

Couldn't happen to a better person.

I'll tell you that much.

Couldn't.

There was some controversy over the weekend whether Joe Biden was going to round up all of our nine millimeter handguns.

And as much as I'd like to tell you that that's what he said he was going to do, because I believe that's what in the end they do want to do, I don't believe that's what he was talking about.

Last week, he was on CNN and he said, how are you going to address the gun violence from the federal point of view?

And he said, and now, I love this man.

You know, whenever he's lying, when he says, I'm not kidding, I'm not joking around.

I'm not fooling around.

That's true.

That's crazy.

But seriously, folks, I mean, he's like a vaudvillion actor.

Anyway, his response was, now, I'm not being a wise guy.

Yeah, shey.

There's no reason, no reason you, well, have you seen my gun violence legislation I've introduced?

As you know, because you're so involved, actually.

Crime is down, but gun violence and murder rates are up.

Why?

Hmm, because you're defunding the police.

Guns.

Oh, I thought it was because I'm the only guy that ever got past legislation, and when I was senator, I made sure we eliminated assault weapons.

The IDA need a weapon.

They have the ability to fire 20, 30, 50, 120 shots from that weapon.

Whether it's a 9mm pistol or whether it's a rifle is ridiculous.

I'm continuing to push to eliminate the sale of those things.

I'm not likely to get that done in the near term, however.

Okay, so everybody thought and took him at his word that he wants to round up nine millimeter pistols.

Yes, he does.

Yes, he does.

Make no mistake.

In the end, they want all guns.

However, what he was talking about is what he is saying about the 9mm.

They're pistols.

I don't even know what you call them.

I have one.

And out of my cold, dead hands.

But anyway,

they have with the collapsing stock.

And so they're kind of like pistols and they're kind of like rifles.

You can collapse them so they're smaller.

And that's what he's talking about.

I mean, you don't...

I've never seen a 9-millimeter handgun with 120 magazine in it.

You know what I mean?

120 bullets in a magazine?

That'd be kind of hard to get in your pocket.

I mean, it's like you're carrying around a broomstick on the end of your gun.

Don't they come in little swirly ones, like little like wheels?

Have you ever seen this?

I've only seen those on James Bond and I want one.

And I want one.

Why?

I don't know.

Mainly because daddy says we can't have one.

Makes me want it even more.

By the way, see if this sounds familiar at all.

There's a story out of Hong Kong now about what the Chinese are doing to the, quote, free residents of of Hong Kong.

Remember, they rounded up all those people that they could,

you know, that were

saying, hey, America, come help us, you know, be free.

We want your freedoms.

Good thing those people were rounded up.

We don't know what happened to those, but now the National Security Police Ooh, we should have some of those.

In Hong Kong on Thursday said they had arrested five members of a speech therapists union over a series of children's books depicting seditious sheep.

Authorities say it shows support for the 2019 protest movement and incited hatred towards the government.

Now,

I'm sure you're not going to find anything that sounds familiar here, but let me just.

Two men, three women aged 25 to 28, all of whom are members of the Hong Kong Speech Therapist General Union, were arrested on suspicion of conspiring to publish seditious publications in connection with the three children's picture books titled The Guardians of Sheep Village, The Garbage Collectors of Sheep Village, and the 12 Heroes of Sheep Village.

National Security Police seized around 550 children's books, leaflets, computers, and mobile phones in a morning raid on the union, arresting the chairperson and several other freezing all of their assets.

Senior Superintendent Steve Lee said the sheep were intended to represent protesters who fought back against riot police in 2019 and depicted the authorities as bad guys, beautifying bad behavior and poisoning children's impressionable minds.

You can't let children read about hate.

Now that comes from the superintendent of schools that's banning this.

Huh.

One book characterizes the wolves as dirty and the sheep as clean, while another lauds the actions of heroic sheep who use their horns to fight back despite being naturally peaceful.

Hong Kong Confederation of Trade Unions official Wong Nan Young told RFA that the case of the seditious sheep, I mean, doesn't that sound like a joke?

I mean, it sounds like a movie, like, you know,

one of those murder mystery.

The case,

the case of the seditious sheep.

He said, it showed that even metaphors are now no longer safe from the ruling Chinese Communist Party.

A crackdown on speech crimes in Hong Kong has begun.

The Hong Kong thing's over, isn't it?

Which is really depressing.

Oh, it's over.

It's over.

It's over.

Did you see what was happening in Cuba this weekend?

I mean, the bloody riots that were going on from the police just beating people in the streets?

Nobody seems to be caring about that.

I don't know why.

I don't know why.

Nobody didn't see that everywhere.

I think

you may be right on that.

I think a lot of people on the right care about it.

I think a lot of people on the left care about it in that they don't want the regime to be toppled.

There is some care there, which is part of the reason why we don't hear much about it.

You'd think there would be a real priority for the

suggestion of just making sure that people can get on the internet right now seems like a really easy, basic thing.

So at least this stuff can be pushed out and we can hear about it.

Well, you would mute.

I mean, the government doesn't want to interfere with what Google and Facebook and social media platforms are doing.

They would never

want to do that.

Hey, can you guys open that up a little bit?

And by the way,

I think it's wrong, think, really, Stu, that you would even suggest that people have a right to get online and say what they want.

Is it?

Yeah, it is.

Danny Deutsch was

on some MSNBC show.

Donnie?

Is it Denny or Danny or Donnie?

I don't really care that much.

You didn't care enough to know his name?

Nope.

I think it's Danny?

Nope.

Just Donny Deutsch.

Donnie, you said Danny, and then I said Donnie, and then I reversed myself.

I think it was.

Let's just go with Denny.

Denny.

Danny Deutsch.

Danny Deutsch.

That's what he said on MSNBC.

Look, whether it's a mandate of mask, a mandate of vaccine is at this point, there is a percentage of the population that who cares whether they're angry or upset about, that this is just, there's 330 million people in this country we need to protect ourselves and as and as as Willie and Alicia mentioned look there's there's been mandates on throughout time I grew up having to get a smallpox vaccine we all did other vaccines also so I'm done worrying about what people think I'm done worrying about is there going to be a firestorm whether it's a mandated mask whether it's a mandated vaccine there's an idiot percentage of this population that just needs to be told what to do.

And guess what?

You don't have a choice.

Too bad.

Hmm.

That's interesting because I would imagine that he's talking about people like in this audience that are just idiots that just need to be told what to do.

I think our founders would be very proud of that.

Of course, they didn't see things like disease coming our way.

You know what I mean?

They couldn't see a pandemic coming.

No.

No.

That's all new stuff.

All new.

But I'm certainly glad that we have heroes.

I mean, can you,

how do you think you're on the right side of history when you know the arc of history always bends towards justice and freedom?

It may take a long time,

but have you not read about the Soviet Union?

Have you not read about

Italy and Germany and all of these places just recently that have tried this?

Have you not read about that?

It doesn't end well for the people who are pushing it.

It doesn't end well.

Well, what's it?

Pushing it.

What is it?

authoritarianism

it's saying i don't care about what the little people say really

wow you know king arthur they don't think really existed right you know that right the the idea of king arthur was they think was just more of uh something that that

came from the

serfs or the smurfs or whatever they are that came from all of the people they couldn't own land they looked for a great king someday

that would actually care about them.

And that's why they think the King Arthur thing, you know, the legend grew that he was

a good, just king.

These guys are on the sides of the king and they're saying, I don't really care about the peasants.

How elitist?

How do you think that you're on the right side?

saying these kinds of things.

Yeah, because you can almost make an argument like in the King Arthur times, it was a little excusable, right?

Where you'd say, well, I hope someday a king comes along and is nice to us.

But we should now, by now, know the evidence of history that when you're looking for some king to be benevolent, some all-powerful person to just make sure they tolerate you enough, it's never a good way to go.

It doesn't work.

It doesn't work.

Doesn't work.

It doesn't work when you have a balanced government.

It takes about 250 years to dismantle it.

I mean, look at what we had.

We've had bad administrations.

We've had good administrations.

You know, there's been times, but we would always ebb and flow, and I would think that we'd always get better.

But that apparently has stopped.

And now you're just saying, I just think people should shut up and just do what we say.

This is why you

why you make your foundations

rights-based, right?

Oh, there's an update on that.

There's a there's an update on that.

Yeah, there's voting going on in Maine about

rights.

Okay.

They're thinking about introducing new rights.

Oh, good.

People are going to vote on it.

Great.

What's the new right?

Oh, I'll tell you.

Give me a minute.

Okay.

You're going to love this.

You are listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Okay.

Really torn on this story.

I thought I was against it when I read the headline.

Then I thought I was for it as I read the story.

And now I'm not sure.

Maine voters are set to decide this fall whether to enshrine a right to food into their Constitution.

If passed, the state would become the first to guarantee such a right.

Sounds like a bad idea, doesn't it?

Here's what the proposed Constitutional Amendment states.

Voters, they're asking voters if they, quote, favor amending the Constitution of Maine to declare that all individuals have a natural, inherent, and unalienable right to grow, raise, harvest, produce, and consume the food of their own choosing for their own nourishment, sustenance, bodily health, and well-being, period.

Now I'm for it.

Absolutely for it.

But it's a reaffirming of this.

You have the right to food.

You have the right.

This right, by the way, went away under the

FDR administration.

There was a farmer that said, you can't regulate my wheat.

I only grow enough wheat for my own use.

My wife and I, we make our own bread and we grind the wheat ourselves.

You don't have any right to come onto my property and talk to me about what I need to do with my wheat.

You can't regulate me because it's what I'm consuming.

And

all of the trade laws between the states,

They went out the window.

All your rights, the trade laws became paramount.

No, no, no, what you're doing, that pollen might go to another farm in another area.

And so you don't have a right to do that.

Now, this is really, really dangerous because that's what set up the GMO market.

The GMOs, if you have GMOs

in any farm area, those GMOs, they, if you will, infect the other markets.

So they'll go to one uh

farm to another farm and it mixes and pretty soon you can't grow corn anymore because your corn seed is no good because the gmo because the companies want to keep making money on charging for seeds

the gmo uh

distributors have a right to make sure that nobody is using their wheat unless they've paid for it or their corn unless they've paid for it.

So, what's happening here is actually, this is an organic farmer that is pushing for this, saying, no, I have a right to grow anything I want.

You can't tell me no.

The problem is, is the seed language in the contracts will make it difficult for anybody in Maine to do business with GMO seed producers.

And that may be the reason for this whole mess.

But I think

I support the right to raise your own food, do anything that you want.

You have a right to eat.

You have a right to grow your own food, raise your own food, do what you need to do.

You have a right to go fishing.

I don't, I'm sorry, but I don't agree with fishing license.

It's just a way for the state to make money.

I don't agree with a fishing license.

Why do I have to go get a fishing license for something I'm doing on the river that crosses my property?

What are you talking about?

You have a right to eat.

And now Maine is,

I think, for a good reason, wading into these waters, but you don't want states doing anything other than affirming your rights come from God.

I want to talk to you about jerks.

And I'll do it in 60 seconds.

So you heard me talking about Built Bars for a little while now.

And I know, despite what my sense of taste tells me, Bilt Bars are technically protein bars.

But here's the thing.

I think they're candy bars, and I think they should be marketed as candy bars.

Built bars are like, no, it's a protein bar.

It's really healthy for you.

And I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a candy bar.

No, it's a health bar.

Candy bar.

Health bar, candy bar.

It's made with 100% real chocolate and they taste like candy bars.

Now, I guess you're going to get those people who, you know, want to eat healthy.

Oh, I just want to be healthy.

Well, if you're calling them a candy bar, I guess it'll be harder to get those people on board.

But then if they actually do their homework and they really want to be healthy, then they'll read the package.

That's not something candy bar consumers do.

We just eat it.

It's good.

Yummy.

Open package.

Eat.

Health people, they read the package.

They see it's loaded with protein and it's got five net carbs or four net carbs, 120 calories.

They're fantastic for the healthy people.

But this is a victory for us poor slobs down, you know, thinking I'm too fat to even start thinking about not getting fat anymore.

I'm just going to eat candy bars.

And it's...

It's a hoax, people.

It's a hoax.

It's a candy bar.

No, it's a protein bar.

Built bar.

You decide.

All right.

So I want to talk to you about jerks.

And,

you know, and you know who I'm talking about.

I mean, all the jerks in your life, all the jerks in my life,

and

where did that come from?

Where are all these jerks come from?

How come there are so many jerks around us?

I was born in New York and I grew up in Connecticut.

Yeah.

Well, you know what it is.

It's the hardships of childhood.

They had a hard time in childhood.

They had,

oh my gosh, they had all kinds of trials and tribulations that you just don't know.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They had tests like crazy.

Oh boy, they were put to the test.

And so what happens is most people will, you know, mask the pain.

I used alcohol to mask the pain.

Others mask it with greed or gluttony.

I actually do a little of that one too.

Arrogance.

Distance.

And so you look at them and you're like, that's an arrogant SOB.

And you don't know about all the trials and the tests and the tribulations.

But which one do you want to be?

I mean, because we all had stuff that happened to us.

All.

We all have had stuff happen to us.

You know, it's funny, a friend of mine said

you know

everybody wants a testimony everybody loves the testimony of somebody who is like oh my gosh i was so poor and broke and downtrodden and i had nothing and then all of a sudden i realized and now look at me i'm jennifer aniston and everybody loves that everybody loves that But a testimony requires the first part.

It's not the umoni,

it's the test.

The test is what gives you the ummoni.

And nobody wants it.

Nobody wants hard times.

Life is unfair.

It's so unfair.

I don't like it because it's not fair.

Who started this lie that life was fair?

Life.

Life is hard.

And then it gets harder.

And then you die.

Now, that's pretty pessimistic way to look at it, but it's true.

However,

I could not get through my day if it was like that.

I've had really,

really bad days.

I've had really bad years.

I've had horrible decades.

But it gets better.

Even my lows aren't so low.

And that happened for a reason.

So if you're today thinking, well, I can't make it.

Or if you think that there's really legitimate, and I'm sure there are really legitimate things that have happened to you that are unfair, the question is,

stop whining for a second.

If you want to fix it,

ask yourself this question.

So now what?

My life sucks right now, and the world is unfair.

Okay,

now what?

Because you can't just spend your whole life.

Oh, life is unfair.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

You've told me a thousand times.

Now what?

And you really have two routes.

You can try to make life fair.

That's going to be tough.

But you can try to make life fair.

Now, the problem with that is, is when you make it fair for some, it will be unfair for others.

For instance, income tax.

Is it fair that

people at the upper end of the spectrum pay 50%

of everything they earn

and 50% of the country pays nothing?

Is that fair?

Do we all have a dog in the fight?

Are we all in it together if half of the people are getting money from the government and not putting anything in?

I don't think that's fair.

But life isn't fair.

But if we're trying to make it fair, well, for instance, there's a story out, the Democrats are now going to, they're trying to pass some

new bill, a Democratic proposal that will give more federal aid to black people than white people.

Well, that doesn't sound fair, does it?

Just because of your skin color, you have a better chance of getting aid?

Look, you know,

if something's out of balance, I want to fix that.

Because fairness is treating everyone alike, I thought.

But now, fairness is to make sure, I guess, that we're discriminating against one group.

in favor of another.

But I thought that was discrimination and we banned that in our enlightened 1960s

and 1865.

I thought we got rid of that stuff.

At least that's what we were trying to do.

But see, it's the disparity.

Whites, 72% of white families own a home.

Only 42% of black families own homes.

Okay, so that's a 30-point gap.

That's bad.

It must have been getting worse, right?

Well, in 1960, that 30-point gap was a 27-point gap.

So the $20 trillion

that the United States of America has put in to raise the level of black families

trillions

over $20 trillion

and we still have a 27-point gap over a 30% gap?

And has the rest of their lives gotten better from this?

No, but you know, life isn't fair.

Well, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

When you're trying to fix an issue of unfairness, what happens when your fix becomes unfair?

Then you have to ask yourself, do the ends justify the means?

Do you think you should be punished for laws that you didn't create?

In other words, I didn't round up the Japanese.

FDR did.

I didn't enslave people.

My people weren't even here in America when that was going on.

I mean, I hate to point out they were in Germany because it doesn't really help my case any, but they weren't here.

So

what's the deal with that?

That doesn't seem fair.

Would you want to pay for something that you didn't have any part of?

Would you want to be punished for something you wouldn't want that you didn't do?

Would you want to be punished because those who look like you in terms of skin color did something or created something that now is deemed bad, but was fine

back then?

I wouldn't.

And I wouldn't want to subject anybody else because if I can subject them to that, they can

subject me into that same category.

The best man can do

is say, life isn't always fair and try to create win-wins.

But to create a win-win, you kind of have to let nature work.

So your first option is, you know,

try to make life fair.

But that's fraught with traps.

The other is you could get angry and take it out on others.

And that's where a lot of people go.

It's where a lot of people are now.

Why do you think, where did Antifa come from?

What is that?

They care about totalitarianism.

No, they don't.

They're fascists.

It's either their way or no way.

That's pretty much a thumbnail of a fascist.

Where did all this anger come from?

Well, they're white.

Mainly white people.

And they've had a very hard time usually growing up in the suburbs.

So you can see the angst there.

Uh-huh.

We're just trying to help other people, trying to make it fair for them.

Oh, by being unfair?

Well, life's just against you.

Really?

Because I'd like to say life is probably not against you.

Most likely not.

Most likely not against you.

You know, everybody is born and everybody, you know, is not born with the same anything.

except humanness.

So we're all human.

But life is supposed to be something that you can work your way through.

And, you know, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was kind and actually thanked the executioner right before he was hung.

He seemed to work that out.

And that's pretty bad.

He was in a concentration camp for a while and then executed 15 days before Hitler.

How unfair is that?

He fought against Hitler the whole time.

And 15 days before Hitler kills himself, they execute him.

Boy, that's not fair.

Sometimes it's true that the cards are stacked against you.

I mean, I'd hate to point out that the cards were pretty much stacked against me from birth.

You know, to be here, no way.

No way this would happen.

Is it because I'm white?

Nope.

It's because I was raised.

Figure it out.

It's got to be a path.

Figure it out.

Now,

when no media would take me, when everybody was like, oh, you can't be anything but Fox, really?

I'm going to start something new.

That's crazy.

How stupid is that?

Nobody's going to watch streaming online.

Yeah, that's what they said 10 years ago.

Now look at where we are.

Life.

I can't get a show on a network.

I've tried to get shows on Amazon and Netflix, HBO.

I've met with them.

They've actually said to me, This is great,

but

we can't work with you.

Why?

Because the other artists wouldn't like it.

Oh, okay, okay, all right.

Well, that doesn't seem fair, does it?

Does it?

So, do I go and try to break them all up and say, You can't do that?

Nope, nope, just do it my way, and realize that there are things I can't do.

But see, I take a third way to life isn't fair.

I know that.

I admit that.

Sucks to be you sometimes.

Sucks to be me sometimes.

But I also know that I'm a beacon.

I also know that what I think, I attract.

So if I'm thinking negative things, I'll attract negative things.

If I think negative thoughts, I'm going to attract negative people.

But if I'm thinking positive things, good things, and I'm actually engaged in living that, good things will follow.

Not always, not the things that you necessarily want.

I haven't wanted the last 10 years.

Stu, have you really wanted the last 10 years?

If you were mapping out 10 years ago what these 10 years would have been like, would you have got, you know what, Glenn, I'd be happy if that was the path.

I may have diagrammed it a little.

Yes, exactly right.

But are you happy with where you are now in 10 years, even though everything that's happened to us in the last 10 years?

Sure.

I am.

It's all part of that journey, I suppose.

Even though some turns we ran into brick walls.

Yes.

And really kind of like did some damage.

Not to the wall, to us.

You know, study after study shows that religious people and conservatives are happy.

They're happier

than liberals.

And the more down that road of Marxism you go, the darker you seem to go.

Why?

Because where's the hope in everything sucks?

Where's the hope in I'll never get better?

I'll never get out of this trap and neither will my kids.

Where is the hope

in everything has to be burned down?

You know, because at some point you do stop and go, if we burn everything down, what's going to be left that will get everybody to hang together through it?

That's why Marxist revolutions always end in some horrible...

You know,

it wasn't Stalin

that was

the pick of the people.

That happened afterwards.

Stalin came in, you know, right after.

It doesn't work out.

And it did here in America because they had a positive vision.

We believe that all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

And to make sure that those things are guarded,

we lend certain rights to the government.

And if the government ever becomes an adversary to those rights,

we have the right and the responsibility to abolish it and then set something up that will be better.

at protecting those rights.

See, it's not like we're going to abolish America.

That's what Antifa would say.

We're just going to do something different.

Really?

What?

Could you share it with us?

That's what people in Washington are doing.

We're just going to change all this to what?

How about you share it?

See, that was the difference between all revolutions and our revolution.

We set out at the forefront.

This is what we want to build.

And if we can take control of our own self, we will build that.

And they did.

And it wasn't promised to be utopia.

It was promised to be a place that would live by the rule of law, not the rule of men, but the rule of law.

And that we would correct our mistakes.

Because we weren't setting up a perfect nation.

We want to set up a more perfect nation.

One that

is going to have flaws.

One that's not going to be fair.

Because only God's kingdom will be fair.

One that won't be fair.

But we try

every day to make it more fair, more perfect for as many people as we can without doing harm to the rights of the rest of the people.

All right.

I can't believe I've had my RekTech for like a year and a half.

I can tell you I am in love with it today as much as I was in love with it the first day I got it.

Because RechTech gives me the opportunity to make amazing, delicious meals that,

between you and I, aren't burnt.

Everything I ever tried to grill burned to a crisp because I'll go in and I'll like forget about it, and the whole damn thing will be on fire when I get out there.

And I'm like, well, steaks.

We only have to cut a couple of inches off the top and the bottom.

And there should be a sliver of steak in there someplace that's edible.

RekTech, it cooks using smart grill technology.

It knows when to adjust the temperature.

It lets me observe everything on an app.

So right now in Dallas, it's about 100 degrees and about 100% humidity.

And I like it about, not at all.

And so standing out in front of my grill does not sound like a good idea.

But with RekTech and their smart grill technology, I'm in.

You know, who are we as a people?

I heard a story the other day

about a guy who's going out and he needed to do some shopping.

And it was a downtown because they didn't have malls back then.

Just like now.

He needed to do some shopping and need to go out, but it was raining.

So he took an umbrella with him.

He goes into the first store and he, you know, buys some stuff.

And while he's in there, it stops raining.

And then he goes to the next store and he does some stuff and buys some stuff.

And then the next door and the next door.

Well, at the end of the day, he's done all of it, but he realizes because it's now raining again, crap, I don't have my umbrella.

Where did I leave my umbrella?

He left it at one of the stores.

So he backtracks.

He goes to the last door.

No umbrella.

Next door, hey, have you seen my umbrella?

No, I don't have your umbrella.

Next door, gets all the way back to the first store.

And the guy who's in the first store says, oh my gosh, yeah, we do have your umbrella.

We were hoping you would come back.

The guy takes it and he grumbles on his way out.

Thank God for an honest man.

All the rest of the stores claimed they didn't have it.

This is what we're living in right now.

This is what we're living in.

Sometimes you really don't have a reason to be pissed.

You know?

All right.

We're going to talk a little bit about football.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Stu?

That's why you come here to this program.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, I actually,

well, I don't want to talk football.

I do.

I'm interested in the topic of the masks with what's happening with football.

And so I thought I'd bring in an expert.

And it's not Stu.

Well, I mean, you do go to Jason Whitlock when you want to hear some talk about football and culture.

Yeah, Jason Whitlock's joining us in just about a minute.

Standby.

This is the Glenback program.

Hey, I don't know if you've heard the good news or not, not, but Democrats have proposed another $5 trillion

reconciliation and social reform bill.

It's great.

And by the way, did you hear Janet Yellen say that, you know, a few years ago

we had to do a debt continuation thing where we're just promising, hey, we're good for this debt.

We're good for this debt.

And we won't stop paying our bills.

Yeah, it might not.

be good to spend another $5 trillion when she said this absolutely, positively must pass.

you have to do everything possible to not default on our debts for even a minute

With its COVID protocols, the NFL is implementing Medical Jim Crow, and Joe Biden loves it.

That's from the latest edition of

the Blaze podcast from Jason Whitlock, who's joining us now.

Hi, Jason.

Hey, Glenn, how are you?

Happy Monday.

Yeah, thank you.

So I've been, I heard this about the NFL over the weekend, and I'm not qualified to talk about it at all.

So I thought I'd let you and Stu talk about it.

Let you and Stu talk about it, you know, for the people who, you know, want something halfway accurate.

Perfect.

i'm here to do it okay so what do you mean by modern-day jim crow

well uh to be quite honest with you tucker carlson coined the phrase medical jim crow a couple of months ago he was talking about how these covet restrictions are going to negatively impact black americans because we are the most reluctant by all the data, all the data says we are the most reluctant to take the COVID vaccines.

And we're seeing it play out in the National Football League.

The NFL has implemented some rules in terms of even if you're unvaccinated and you breach any of the protocols they set up, including not having your mask on 24-7 whenever you're in the building, you're going to face a $14,000 fine.

If your team has some kind of COVID outbreak that involves an unvaccinated player, your team could be forced to forfeit games and paychecks.

All of this, all of these restrictions based on the data and the research and who's getting the vaccines are going to disproportionately impact black NFL players negatively.

And it's how these COVID restrictions, again, the left loves to talk about, oh, Jim Crow, voter suppression.

It's Jim Crow 2.0.

And it's, look, these rules requiring an ID are going to negatively impact poor black and brown people.

And it's all BS,

Glenn.

I have yet, this whole voter ID deal, it's a victimless crime in terms of I haven't seen any proof that black people are showing up at the polls and being turned away because they have no ID or they're sitting at home, oh, I got no ID, I can't do voter mail or whatever.

It's all garbage.

What actually is legitimate is what's going on with these COVID restrictions, but you won't hear anybody on the left talk about it.

Okay, so why is it that the black community is the worst at not getting vaccinated?

No group of people has been preached to more aggressively don't trust the government.

Right.

Stu, we were right.

Stu and I were talking about this this morning, and we're like, if you're black, why would you take it?

You're being told everybody is trying to kill you.

Here, take this vaccine.

And look, there have been examples of

the Tuskegee Syphilis Project that, you know, from the 1930s that really damaged black men, and we were basically lab rats.

Yeah.

And so that's part of our history.

But again, it's part of our history.

What's going on today is corporate media and the Democratic puppet masters every day telling black people, man, this government is out to get you.

It's systemically racist.

You have no shot.

And so it makes perfect sense for black people to say, man, I'm not going to trust an experimental, an experimental vaccine that hasn't gone through all the proper

normal protocols and channels that vaccines go through before they're issued en masse.

It makes perfect sense for us to be the least likely to go get the shot.

So, why then is the media attacking Trump supporters when that's not even true?

Why are they going after people

and not mentioning blacks and Hispanics, which are far more less likely to get vaccinated?

Because all the corporate media does is lie, and they particularly lie about race issues, and they want to demonize oh my god there's this Delta variant and it's Trump supporters and and again it's almost like there are two dishonest messages confusing black people one is

the government's out to get you and and they're they're plotting every day on how they can kill you and two is oh man these Trump supporters they're destroying America for you and you must hate them because they're your mortal mortal enemies.

And Glenn,

I'm going to go to my death

saying

Trump supporters and black people are natural allies.

Both groups need to wake up and understand.

We're not the elites.

And

Glenn Beck is worth a gazillion dollars.

I'm worth a lot of money.

I get when people say, oh, well, you guys are elites too.

Our mentality is an elite.

You know, our faith in a higher power makes us humble ourselves and have a different worldview.

And so even though I'm wealthy, I'm not an elite.

I have a working-class mentality.

Well, you know, beyond that,

I don't think it matters when we're all saying everyone should have the same opportunity and shot.

Unlike Donny Deutsch, who came out.

Can you play this for Jason?

Who came out this weekend and said this?

Imagine the arrogance to say this on TV.

Look, whether it's a mandate or mask, a mandated vaccine is at this point, there is a percentage of the population that who cares whether they're angry or upset about, that this is just, there's 330 million people in this country.

We need to protect ourselves.

I grew up having to get a smallpox vaccine.

We all did other vaccines also.

So I'm done worrying about what people think.

I'm done worrying about is there going to be a firestorm, whether it's a mandated mask, whether it's a mandated vaccine.

There's an idiot percentage of this population that just needs to be told what to do.

And guess what?

Wow.

I think that's elite.

That's elite.

That's certainly an un-American sentiment.

It's also a dangerous sentiment when, again, that's someone who arrogant, self-important,

thinks he's smarter than everybody else.

And it's literally that, I promise you, I wake up every day hoping I don't make a fool out of myself with something ignorant that I do.

And that's my system of checks and balances to make sure that I act normal.

I just don't have that superiority gene that Donny Deutsch seems to have, and a lot of people on the left seem to have.

They're just smarter than everybody else, and the rest of us are just blessed to be in their presence.

In your article, you talk about a player from Arizona and Tampa that

spoke out last week about this.

And

you said, we can't be cowards and sheep forever.

What do you mean?

Well, DeAndre Hopkins, the Arizona Cardinal wide receiver, has expressed his reluctance and concern about the vaccine.

Leonard Fournette, who plays with Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, just won a Super Bowl.

He's tweeted out he doesn't want to get the vaccine.

And I just think that

what initially started out in corporate sports media was they were going to frame Cole Beasley, this white wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills.

He was the first to start speaking up.

And he was actually doing it probably

on behalf of his black teammates who were probably too afraid to speak up because they just don't want to deal with the social media backlash.

And so the media was going to frame like Cole Beasley.

He's the only one, and it's white guys, and he's a Trump supporter, and, you know, he's against the vaccine.

And so I'm just glad to see DeAndre Hopkins and Leonard Fournette express what I know many

black people think and feel.

The data backs it up.

That's how we think and feel.

Certainly in those NFL locker rooms aren't immune to what the rest of us think and feel.

Ezekiel Elliott, you know, the Cowboys running back, came out and said, Look, man, I grew up in a family where none of us got vaccinated.

We just didn't believe in any of the

vaccines.

And that's prevalent among black people.

And we don't, we got to quit being in fear of the social media mob and the left framing us as idiots or sellouts or whatever.

We got to man up like DeAndre Hopkins and Leonard Fournette and Cole Beasley and speak our truth.

So do you, do you actually believe, you said that

this COVID-19

is going to make

the Emancipation Proclamation.

I'm trying to figure out what

I'm trying to find it.

Do you remember what you wrote?

Yeah, I said that

these restrictions that the NFL are implementing are going to make

they're going to come off like stop and frisk in old New York.

Or they're going to make stop and frisk feel like the Emancipation Proclamation in Juneteenth wrapped all into one.

Oh my gosh.

And do you believe that?

To some degree, yes.

Now, look, I'm being entertaining in a column, and I want to say

that I remember just like you did.

I did remember, well, I barely remembered it, but that was the line that stuck out.

And it's just an analogy.

The same way we complained about stop and frisk in New York, it's targeting black people, targeting black people.

This COVID restriction, it's targeting black NFL players.

The data speaks for itself.

Jason, thank you.

Thank you so much.

By the way, is it okay to be happy that

the Team USA is not doing good?

Thank you.

Yeah.

I didn't write it in my column, but I was rooting for France.

Right.

I don't want to see these guys on a medal stand irritating me.

So I'd rather them lose than get on the medal stand and do any type of protest and irritate me.

Yeah, it just felt wrong because I remember rooting against the Soviet Union, and I've never rooted against the America, you know, the American team.

And I'm kind of there.

I'm like, I don't want them to win.

I don't want them to win.

Thank you so much.

I appreciate it.

Thank you.

You bet.

Bye-bye.

You knew right where I was going.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Leslie lives in Maryland.

She writes in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.

She says, my three-year-old Chinese.

Oh, my gosh.

She's got a Chinese dog.

Well, don't worry.

The Justice Department will not investigate anything.

She says,

my Chinese crested powder puff.

Wow, that sounds like, she says, it's frustratingly picky.

Really?

You got a dog named a powder puff and it's picky?

Who would have seen that coming?

We're just talking about elitists, too.

And here we see one.

I threw away more food than she ate.

I tried every possible food and even tried cooking it

for her, as you can imagine.

That got very old.

But then I tried rough greens.

I don't even have to clean her bowl.

She cleans it and leaves no trace that there was ever any food in it at all.

Apparently, she loves the taste, and I'm glad to give her the nutrients that she needs to stay healthy.

Thank you so much.

P.S.

I do still wash her bowl anyway.

Leslie, thank you for writing in.

I don't wash his bowl, but that's a difference.

You can get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out, especially if they're picky.

Just try it.

All you pay for is shipping.

You try it for a week and see if they like it and they eat it.

And if so, then order a real bag of rough greens and then watch your dog change over time.

It's rough greens, 833-Glenn33.

Hey, Stu.

I don't know if you saw this,

but optimism has dropped almost 20 points since May of the American people.

Since May.

Since May.

Yeah, since May.

This May, this last May, just a couple months ago.

2021.

Yeah.

People are less optimistic about the future.

That actually does surprise me.

Because you think coming out of COVID, out of

race riots.

They know we're going right back in.

Really?

Yeah, yeah.

I think most people are like, nah, it's coming back.

Yeah, they're going to do it.

If Texas does it, I ain't going.

I'm not going.

I don't think any.

Do you think any red state?

Certainly a government.

Let's just say you happen to live in a state with a governor who may have aspirations for the presidency.

Or just to be re-elected.

Just to be reelected.

Yeah, exactly.

Nope.

Not happening.

By the way, did you hear the crowd in,

where was it, Arizona

that went after...

Do we have this audio by any chance?

I think I sent it.

No, we don't.

Oh, shoot.

You got to look this up.

She was running, I think, or she is an Arizona senator, and she's running for re-election, but she was the only senator that said, no, we don't need to check these numbers.

No, let's just move on.

They didn't let her speak.

She got up at the big convention and

not speaking.

I tend to pull back from the idea of not letting people speak.

I feel like letting people speak is usually a good thing, even when you don't like them, because then they wind up saying dumb things you can later.

Yeah, I am too.

I mean, I'd much rather see everybody get up and turn their back on them and just face the other direction.

Let them speak.

We're just looking in the back of the room.

That's all we're doing.

What do you mean?

We're letting you speak.

We believe in freedom of speech.

Speak all you want.

We're not watching you or listening to you.

Nope.

And then when you say goodnight, everybody, we all just sit back down like nothing happened.

I think that would be great, but

does sound like a,

that doesn't sound childish to you at all?

No.

No.

I think people are, I think people are just pissed.

I think

they're not where they were, you know, 10 or 12 years ago when they first started speaking up and like, hey, hey, let everybody speak.

No, I think they're kind of past that.

When it comes to their own side, you know, you get, wait, hold it just a second.

Wait.

You didn't even want to open up the doors so we could see what was going on.

You're

really?

Right.

No, I don't think so.

Yeah, I don't think so.

Why would you show up to an event like that?

It just doesn't seem to make any sense.

She had to have known, right?

Are they that out of touch, even locally, that they're like, no, they'll love me?

I don't know.

That's an interesting question.

I mean, I think sometimes there are people who think if they can get in front of a crowd, they can turn people around.

Well, I can.

And you've done it.

Well, in all seriousness, you've done it at very hostile events.

I've seen it happen.

Yeah.

Where you'll go out there and they will basically, they'll be like, all of a sudden, you start speaking and there's a bunch of red dots moving around on your chest.

I know, you're like, you're like, wait a minute.

I thought you guys didn't like guns.

Why are these all on my

people do get that in their heads, but you need to know where you're going and what your audience is.

Yeah, and I don't think that was, it's not going to go well for her in a re-election.

I'm just, unless she runs as a Democrat or maybe an Independent.

Don't think it's going to go well.

Don't think it's going to go well.

Hey, have a great day, especially if you're a senator from Arizona.

Hey, just go on and take on the day.

This is the Glenn Back program.
