Democrats vs. ‘Health Issues’ | Guests: Bill O’Reilly & Brad Thor | 7/23/21

Chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more, can make me feel like a spectator in my own life.

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

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

It's the number one prescribed branded chronic migraine preventive treatment.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

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

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

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

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

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

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

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

Why wait?

Ask your doctor, visit BotoxchronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

All right, welcome to the program.

Today, I want to share with you that Bill O'Reilly is going to be on with us and so much more.

I want to talk to you a little bit about American financing.

An uncomfortable question for you: How many times a day would you say you pick up the phone and scroll through Facebook for at least 10 solid minutes?

Stop doing it today.

Don't do that.

Here's what I want you to do: I want you to call, take that 10 minutes, and call American Financing at 800-906-2440.

800-906-2440.

It's AmericanFinancing.net.

Yeah.

That's good to see.

Yeah, just sitting in Stu's, or I mean Pat's place today.

Yeah.

Got an interesting back-of-the-chair situation going on there.

A little pillow action for the back of the chair today.

Yeah, just a little headrest.

Yeah.

Just a little headrest.

Looks good.

Yeah, thank you very much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

It's going be a uh gonna be an exciting exciting show today it's one word for it we're gonna start we're gonna start with amy clomature here in uh just a second

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

It's Friday, and we have quite a program lined up for you.

Not today, of course, probably next week at some time.

And today will be, you know, it'll be an okay show.

But wow, we've got a great show lined up for you.

It's Friday.

Bill O'Reilly begins with us in just a few minutes.

Also, we begin with Amy Klobuchar.

Oh, she wants to make sure that we're all healthy.

And so now the government will decide what's misinformation and what's not.

And if you're filing it misinformation or spreading it, you're going to be in trouble with your big brother.

We begin there in 60 seconds.

The Glen Beck program.

So Kent lives in Arkansas.

He writes in about his experience with Relief Factor.

He says, I've been taking Relief Factor now for about three months, and I'm amazed at how much my pain has

decreased.

Rainy weather, I would be in ridiculous pain, just wanting to crawl into bed and cry.

Gosh, I hope you.

Okay, you live in Arkansas.

I was hoping you didn't live in Seattle.

At this writing, it's been raining all day, and I feel fine.

Before Relief Factor, I never had a day when something didn't hurt.

Now, most days, I have have great quality of life.

Thank you so much.

That's exactly how I would describe it.

Relief Factor will take you and give you your life back.

It doesn't mean you're going to live a life of pain-free.

It means you're going to live a life where you are able to function

and most of your pain is gone.

Kent, I'm glad you got your life back with Relief Factor.

I know what you mean about just wanting to crawl into bed and cry.

But some of us, we go on.

We stand on our own two feet and we push forward.

You know what I'm saying, Stu?

Some of us are

standing on your own two feet.

That's what you're doing today?

I'm here, aren't I?

You are here.

I'm sitting here right here in the studio, right next to you.

In a way, yes, you are.

You certainly are.

It's an interesting day.

I know what you're talking about, Studios.

It's Friday, and Relief Factor.

Try it out.

70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.

It's Relief Factor.

ReliefFactor.com or call 800-583-84, 800-583-84.

It's relieffactor.com.

All right, you sick twisted freak.

How you doing, Stu?

Good.

How are you?

Well, I'm a little worried about misinformation today.

And, you know, what Big Brother is going to say about what we're talking about today.

I just want to make sure we're in line

and all of our words are politically correct.

And if not, I think it's appropriate to not only ban us from, let's say, Twitter, but also from all other social media and maybe all speech entirely.

Well, I don't think you should be allowed to speak if you have misinformation, you know.

You know, it's not enough: YouTube, Facebook,

Twitter,

but radio, television,

all internet.

But hey, look, if you want to write letters, you can write letters to people.

Can't send them in the mail.

No, no, not with a federal, it would be a federal crime to send false information through the U.S.

Postal Service.

So you don't want to do that.

Sure, sure.

But you could write letters.

I didn't say send them.

I said you could write letters.

This is Amy Klobuchar.

Now, remember, Amy Klobuchar was the one that said, hey, you know what we're going to do?

We're going to, these people are way too crazy for me.

And if you're a Democrat and you just want common sense and you don't want all this radicalism, well, let me tell you right now, what you need is Amy Klobuchar for president.

She was the moderate.

Yesterday, she came out and

introduced her

Health Misinformation Act, co-sponsored by Senate Commerce Communications Subcommittee, blah, blah, blah, create an exception to websites currently, uh, current liability protection for user-posted content.

So, in other words, if Facebook is providing misinformation, well, they're not, they're not held responsible.

They, they don't mean to, okay?

Um, but uh,

whew, let me tell you something.

If you post something, now this is only because it's a health emergency, right, Stu?

I mean, it's, this is not going to happen for, you know, everyday things.

No, no, of course not.

Just the health.

Just if there's like a major health and safety sort of situation.

Right.

Like COVID.

Right, right, exactly.

Like a pandemic, an ongoing pandemic.

Or racism, because racism is a really big health problem.

As we found out, that's why you could protest.

Yeah, that's why

it was okay to protest in the George Floyd thing because obviously

more important than the pandemic as a health issue was racism.

Racism.

It was a bigger pandemic in America

than the actual pandemic.

And, you know, I mean, I think we should throw in guns because guns are

a huge problem.

Huge problem with health.

Huge health issue.

That's probably okay.

Yeah.

I will say this.

The climate is so serious, Glenn.

Well, it's the health of everybody.

We all die.

Yeah.

It's a, I mean, existential threat.

Right.

And talk radio really, I mean, it's become, the guys on talk radio are really more of cult leaders.

That's everything else.

It's a great mental health issue.

And they really need to be stopped.

This is, we're not making this up.

This is exactly what will happen.

And I know this audience knows this, but so many people in America won't even pay attention to this story.

You know, we are being killed not by Marxist.

We are being killed by apathy.

We are being killed by a bunch of people who have no interest in doing anything for themselves.

They'll believe whatever they hear

and they'll just take it at face value and they don't really care.

They're not really paying attention to any of the news.

They probably can't tell you who the vice president is.

And certainly they couldn't tell you what HHS is.

And a Misinformation Act, Of course that sounds good.

I mean, we got to stop this misinformation.

Hmm.

Well, may I give you just a few things?

This is actually coming from the Daily Caller.

Here's four major stories, four major stories that were called disinformation.

The first one is the lab leak theory.

We

received

anti-brownie points.

I don't know what you would call those, Stu,

but we were flagged as a company, and it cost us money to tell you that we felt that there is a chance it came from the lab.

It's obvious that that's where you even start.

You know, when you have a coronavirus coming out and it's got a, you know, it's got a wet market 277 yards away from the biolab you look at the wet market but you also look at the biolab

we weren't allowed to do that for months after the coronavirus spread Democrats and media talking heads dismissed any possibility that the virus could have leaked from a research laboratory

Tom Cotton, do you remember what Tom Cotton went through?

Because he said that it was coming from the lab or the possibility that it was coming from the lab.

He was labeled a fringe conspiracy theorist for that.

Well, it turns out, looks like he may be right.

Now

everybody's saying it's okay.

So what happens to the people like me, people like you that might have been saying and exercising their First Amendment right to question the government?

Remember, that's part of the First Amendment.

It's not just freedom of press.

It is also to petition the government, to get together and say, wait a minute, wait a minute, you owe us answers because we don't believe that.

If we lose the right to petition our government and the right to free speech, what's really left that is important?

If you can't question the government, if you can't question what the mainstream media and the government say,

do you really have any freedom left anymore?

That's not a rhetorical question, by the way.

Tell me how you have freedom without freedom of speech, freedom of expression.

Tell me how you are free if you're not allowed to question authority.

If you're not a...

How do we have any new invention?

How do we have anything?

See, this is what happens to communist countries.

People just think that, oh, well, no, they just have some bad leadership at the top.

No, they kill everything that leads to invention.

They kill everything that leads to

progress

because you're not allowed to

question those in authority.

So only those in authority, if they steal the ideas from other people or they just come up with them themselves, that's the only way you get any kind of progress.

And who's interested in progress when those at the top are fat and happy?

Why change things?

Why upset the apple cart?

Why do we need this?

Now, another one, of course, was the Russian bounties on American soldiers.

A few months before the 2020 presidential election,

the media began to circulate a report suggesting Russian officials secretly place bounties on the heads of American soldiers, effectively paying the Taliban to kill Americans.

Everyone from the New York Times and now the White House press secretary Jen Saki pushed this narrative.

The Washington Post even gave Trump four Pinocchios for calling the story fake news.

Now, six months after the election, the story has changed.

A news statement from the Biden White House said former White House press secretary Kayleigh McKinady said from the beginning that the intelligence intelligence community did not have high confidence in the information.

And yet the press and the government, all of the agencies said if you question that,

you were just a crazy Trump supporter.

You were just trying to get him elected.

You were ignoring the fact that Americans were being slaughtered and executed at the request of Russia.

You were just just a denier.

And now we know it's not true.

How about Hunter Biden's laptop?

That's the opposite direction.

If you believed in Hunter Biden's laptop, you were a moron.

This was Russian disinformation.

This was bad for the election because...

We know Russia has been working with Trump, and now they have laptop that just shows up.

NPR said they wouldn't even report on it.

Now what do we know about Hunter Biden's laptop?

Well, we don't know a lot from the government.

We don't know a lot from the press.

But we do know now that the Hunter Biden laptop story is absolutely true.

They're still trying to deny the things in it just by not talking about it.

But

it's not disinformation.

It's not misinformation.

It's true.

There's three really important ones.

How about just the Russian collusion in and of itself?

How about this one?

In 2007,

I said something that almost no one agreed with.

I got so much heat from people

because I said the economy, we're going to collapse.

The banking system is going to collapse.

And lo and behold, it did.

Well, I said that for about how long, Stu, before that happened, three years?

Yeah,

it was a long time.

Yeah, three years.

I was really ringing the bell on that.

Look out, look out.

Don't get involved in all this housing scam.

We're in trouble.

Well, was that disinformation?

Or was that my opinion?

And it actually helped save some people, but everybody was pissed at me, Republicans, Democrats alike.

Everyone was pissed at me.

How about there's a caliphate?

The caliphate is coming.

That's what these people want to do in the Middle East is they want a caliphate.

Oh my gosh, that's the craziest thing ever.

Was that disinformation?

Can you imagine even talking about Benghazi today?

Was that disinformation?

No one paid for that.

No one paid for that.

But we know what the truth is because we saw it.

In America, the people who were involved could write a book.

And then in the time when it wasn't just what was politically correct, but what could be made into a good movie, like that's a higher standard,

We saw the movie.

Was that disinformation?

We are now entering a place and this is really, truly it.

If this happens, this is the key to destroy

everything.

And that is having the government and HHS decide what's information, what's misinformation, and disinformation.

And I know they're saying that, no, that's not going to happen.

It's only because this is a health epidemic.

Uh-huh.

Well, you have already said climate change is about health.

You have already said gun control is about health.

You will put anything about health.

If I said the things I said, which are true and we now know about Obamacare when they were trying to shove that through, they could have silenced me because that's a health issue and I was lying to the American people.

No, I wasn't.

No, I wasn't.

Who was lying?

It was the government.

If Americans don't start to see that our founding fathers were exactly right,

if you don't, if

the government doesn't have a healthy fear that the American people are watching and will remember and will take action at the voting booth.

If they don't fear the people,

the people will fear them.

And

no government, left or right, no president, left or right, Republican, Democrat, Independent, should ever have as much power as our president now has.

No president, no Congress should ever be able to make the American people afraid.

Donald Trump scared half the country.

So what did they do?

They

put somebody else in office who scared the other half of the country.

What are we doing?

I think it's time we start coming together and saying,

no, no one should be afraid of the government.

All right, let me tell you about Lifelock, our sponsor this half hour.

Unless you have some ability to constantly adapt to every new way cyber criminals are attempting to seal your identity, You need something that's going to protect your data.

There's an unfortunate truth.

Nobody is able to keep up with all cybercrime because it's happening all the time all over the world.

Did you see what happened yesterday, all the websites that were shut down, Stu?

No, I don't think I did.

Oh my gosh, big story.

We'll talk about it in a minute.

It wasn't a cyber hack, they say.

They say it was a software update, but it was the banking system.

It was AT ⁇ T.

It was, it was a lot.

It was a lot.

And don't think that our enemies can't do that.

Now, if they're able to do that to the government, if they're able to do that to some of our infrastructure, you don't think they can get your information and destroy your life?

You need Life Lock, somebody that is watching over you all the time.

They can't catch everything, but if they miss something or something has happened to you, they'll help you make it right.

Speaking of interesting,

are we going to address your situation here on camera today?

Situation on camera.

I'm just sitting here.

I feel a little like Stephen Hawking.

Oh, wait a minute.

I'm I'm on the beach, strangely not laying down on the beach.

That's weird.

That's weird.

If you're watching GBTV or you're watching

Blaze TV today, you'll see that now I'm just sunning myself on the beach.

And it's beautiful.

Yeah,

Glenn is having some back issues,

which seems to be a very frequent occurrence lately.

Yeah, I mean, I've never, I'm turning into Pat.

I've never had, I mean, I fell out of a two-story window probably 30 years ago and screwed up my back royally and been living with it.

And I've been able to handle it.

And

the pain will come and go.

And once in a while, I'll throw my back out and it'll be bad.

I threw my back out, I don't even know, three months ago.

And I've had all kinds of, you know, steroid injections and everything else.

And I, the doctor is now saying, you got to have surgery.

And I don't want surgery.

I don't, I, you know, it was a sad situation, obviously.

It was that it was only two stories, but

you.

You actually, back in the day, did the show with Pat after he went through a surgery.

Yeah.

And wasn't he in the bed for?

He was in bed for, I don't even know, two months, something like that.

So now you are currently laying flat on the floor here in the studio

with a green screen behind you.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm here on the beach.

Oh, my gosh.

Who am I in bed with?

It looks like Amy Schumer.

You seem to be in bed with Amy Schumer.

This is not going to be good.

This is not right.

I don't want to be in bed with Amy Schumer.

Hello, America.

It's Friday,

the Glenn Beck program.

Glad you're here.

Bill O'Reilly comes up in about half an hour.

I'm really excited to talk to him about the news of the week, what he felt was the uh most important usually wrong on that he's usually wrong on that but uh

he's got a great viewpoint uh and we'll check with him in about a half an hour from now looking at you right now you have a great viewpoint as well a viewpoint from space

well you know uh branson went into space and then uh what's his name uh from uh from amazon he went up i i went in uh you know His was a little controversial.

Bezos, when he went into space, his capsule kind of looked a little, you know um but uh i went in a um um

a rocket shaped as um lady bits and so i'm in space now it's very scary it's funny watching you because as if you missed it glenn is laying flat on the ground today and they've put a green screen behind him and are just changing the backgrounds to torture him and it's fun actually it's one of these we should send some pictures out uh tweet some pictures out of Glenn with the various backgrounds.

And perhaps I'm just

a suggestion to the audience because it's Friday.

It's a summer Friday.

Maybe they're a little bored.

At Studos America at Glenn Beck.

Tweet us the background you think should be behind Glenn for the rest of the show.

It's just if you have a funny picture that you think would look funny, having Glenn in the middle of it as he's trying to do serious material on the air.

I'd like to be in the garage with Jack Ruby right now.

Can you put me back in bed with Amy Schumer, please?

Because that one looked kind of real, didn't it?

You're going to have to take it full screen.

There it is.

Kind of looks like,

and she's looking over at me like, oh my gosh, this is great.

And so to make this complete, it has to be like.

I think.

One of those things.

I will say, it's not just...

We are, we've talked a lot about social media today because of the Amy Klobuchar bill.

And sure, people can tweet backgrounds for you to do the radio show with today at Studios America at Glenn Back.

Sure, but

we're not just here to be silly.

No, we're not.

We are here to help the audience and navigate these very difficult cues.

Now, I don't know if you know this, but they've decided to come out with new emojis

because, hey, things are changing, and so the emojis need to change too.

And so, the good people at the emoji-producing factory

have decided to take on a new task, Stu.

Yeah, well, I know they had the pregnant man, which was a nice one.

Because you know, people don't realize this, but men can be pregnant.

No, men cannot become pregnant.

Yes, they can.

Yes, they can.

No, they cannot.

No, they can't.

Basically, the way that a man becomes pregnant is they are a woman, and then we call them a man.

And so then they can become pregnant.

But a biological man, no matter how he changes

his parts,

can't have a baby.

And anybody like Stu who's trying to propagate that, dangerous medical disinformation, just want to point that out.

Dangerous medical misinformation.

This is the road we're on.

This is the road we're on.

They will know.

They will, and we're far down this road, by the way.

I mean, the fact that they're releasing a pregnant male, which we all, we all, look, we can all talk about this stuff however you want.

But the bottom line is that men cannot have children.

That is a very basic fact in human anatomy.

I have children.

You did not give birth to any children.

Feels like I did.

People always say, like, we're pregnant.

Now she's pregnant.

All right.

You're not anything.

You spent

probably 18 seconds doing something.

It's over.

Your part of this is pretty much over.

You'll spend the rest of your life probably

screwing the kid up as they grow up.

But you're

somebody has some daddy issues.

Holy cow.

But it's like, I've always thought that term is hilarious.

We're pregnant.

Thank God.

I got that you had a small role.

She's the one doing everything.

What are you doing?

I know.

We have children.

That's accurate.

Yes, of course.

We're pregnant.

No.

No, we're not.

We're not.

No, we're not.

And we're glad.

Half 50% of us are glad we're not pregnant.

Now, if you look at our physiques, we look pregnant.

Yes.

And the male pregnant thing actually would work for us as an emoji because we look like we're pregnant.

Exactly right.

Stu,

that's our new logo.

You and I, as emojis, pregnant.

It works.

It works.

And that will keep us.

They can't ban us then.

Right.

So we're the pregnant men.

We decided

on that.

We decided that we were going to help the emoji people and come up with some new emojis as well.

For instance, I don't want to,

I don't want to get somebody's pronouns wrong, and they don't always announce their pronouns.

So

to make sure I don't misgender somebody, I'm suggesting a new 99-shaped emoji.

That way, you know, I just put that instead of Mr., Miss,

you know, you, they, whatever it is, you just put the 99 emoji up there.

So, this is what covers the 99 genders?

Is that the idea?

Yeah, now we might have to change that as the genders keep going up.

Yeah, maybe 999 would be a safer thing.

Probably.

Because we probably have a good month or two before it hits 999 genders.

Yeah, now I've come up with another, and we're going to be tweeting all of these out so you'll be able to see them.

I came up with another one because we know that CRT, we told you yesterday the definition of a word that you probably have never heard, praxis.

It's an old word, but it was really, it's really used by communists and people who believe in Karl Marx.

I mean, I believe in Karl Marx.

I just don't believe in his writings.

But

the

praxis means putting it into action.

And that's that's what's happening to our schools.

They are making activists out of our schools.

Uh, and so, you know, when we're talking about our kids, I think it's easy just to use a

just a little emoji there, which is uh, it looks to be, how would you describe that, Stu?

An angry child, an angry baby holding a BLM sign.

Yeah.

So there's your new emoji for child activist.

Um, now

we all have complained from time to time that we've lost our heroes, you know, all of their, who are the heroes?

And so we thought we would make the politically correct emoji of our new heroes.

And here they are.

They're holding hands.

There's three of them there.

One is Castro, one is President Z, and the other is Maduro.

And they're holding hands with halos over their head.

Totally appropriate.

And the good thing about using these emojis, you will never get banned using them.

These will be completely approved.

As long as you don't use them in some sarcastic way.

Who would do that?

I hope nobody.

I mean, I know this isn't sarcastic.

We're not doing this in a sarcastic way.

We mean it.

We mean it.

I would love to have these emojis.

Can we?

Is there a way to make this emoji package so we can actually have people use them as emojis?

I don't know.

I will say I've never in my life used an emoji for any reason.

I do.

I use the guy.

I use the guy with his tongue out and his eyes kind of popped out cross-eyed.

I use that one a lot.

I use the one where he's just got big wide eyes.

He's like, what?

I use that one a lot.

I had this thing where I learned growing up words.

So I use those to describe the things I'm talking about.

It's a crazy idea.

The one I find

the most active, at least for for me, is the salsa dancer.

You've seen the...

Yeah.

Have you seen that?

They have a lady salsa dancer and a man salsa dancer.

And I use that all the time.

Really?

All the time.

I can't tell you how many.

Is it like, hey, honey, bring me the...

And then salsa?

Exactly.

Hey, honey, you want to.

Salsa dance tonight?

You know?

I thought you were looking for condiments, but I was apparently a mistake.

No, no, no, that's the main use for it.

Okay, that's the main use for it.

What the hell is that?

Why do they have a salsa dancer?

Why?

Who's using that?

I don't know.

I don't know the point.

People think these things are cute, and

I don't understand.

It's just a dumbing down of our society in such a massive way that I don't.

Let me just tell you this.

You know who you can who can really help, who can really help and not dumb down our society is the government.

And that's why we have a new government emoji here to help.

It's just a yellow-faced guy in dark sunglasses and

a needle.

So he's got the vaccine all ready to go.

He's here to help.

Coming door to door?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Then, of course, if you want anybody to take you seriously, you're going to need this emoji.

This is your vaccine passport emoji.

So you can just label that and you're like, look, I can come into this theater.

Here's my passport.

You know what I mean?

Exciting.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Now, this one was inspired by

Joe Biden

because, you know, I, of course, use Latinx all the time when I'm talking about, excuse me for saying this, Latinos.

Now, is it confirmed Latinx?

I thought it was Latin X.

Is it both?

How does that work?

Well, it is Latinx,

but apparently Joe Biden is so hip that he came up with his own way of pronouncing it.

And here he is.

Listen.

It's awful hard as well

to get

Latinx vaccinated as well.

Latinx.

Latinx.

Good point.

So we have a new Latinx

emoji.

It's a tissue box with a sombrero on it.

The new

Latinx.

You know, that one may get you banned.

That one potentially might actually get you banned, but it's still really funny.

Let me go for the peaceful protester.

If we have the peaceful protester, he's a black block rioter with a raised fist,

antifa

banded, a branded riot shield, and his face is masked.

So

that's the peaceful protester emoji.

And not spreading COVID.

Exactly right.

Because they're wearing the mask.

Exactly right.

And let me just show you now the journalist.

There's the emoji for the journalist.

That seems to be very similar to the peaceful protester Antifa member.

Oh, yeah, they're exactly the same.

Okay.

But it just depends on which context you use.

And then here is the college student.

You have the college student emoji

right there.

Again, that looks exactly like the journalist and the Antifa member.

I know it's hard to tell them apart, isn't it?

It is.

It is hard to tell them apart.

All right, our sponsor this half hour

is: if I could see see it, I would be able to tell you.

It's American financing.

If there's one thing that we as Americans are used to, it's standing on the precipice of change, especially now, right?

Isn't it exciting to be on the precipice where you feel like you might fall off the cliff, but don't worry, you're not going to.

Sometimes change is good.

A lot of times it's not so good.

I don't know what the future holds, but I do know that it holds all kinds of change.

And it's going to have change

that will be directly related to your banking future.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, please look into The Great Reset or watch one of our episodes on The Great Reset.

But it is going to change.

A lot of stuff is changing.

And I want you to call American Financing because it's going to get harder for you to get a loan, especially once they start doling out the ESG cards.

And you listen to this program?

Yeah, you're kind of a risk for the bank.

So I don't think we're going to be able to do that for you.

Give American Financing a call today.

Do not wait.

Do not put it off.

You want to start saving money right now.

Look into a refi, or maybe you're looking for a new mortgage for your house right now, or you're buying a new house.

Or you want to do a consolidation loan right now.

American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

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

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

You know, Joe Biden is looking to spend an awful lot of our money, and I'm not sure he even understands what he's talking about.

By the way, I'm up on top of,

I think this is Everest because I'm that kind of guy.

Anyway, he said in the town hall the other day, I'm not being facetious.

Democrats or Republicans, I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.

The fact is, you can't look at television and say nothing happened on January 6th.

You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

No, I'm serious.

I'm not joking.

Think about it.

Think of the things being said.

I've been through the other end of this when Democrats 35 years ago were way off on the other side.

So was he thinking, does he think the 1960s were 35 years ago, or is he accurately saying that the bombing of the Capitol building from the Weather Underground happened, and that was a Democratic move?

I also like how he's presenting it as it's crazy that, like, you look at TV and you shouldn't, you can't believe your eyes.

That doesn't, that was not like just a peaceful event.

That's exactly what they required us to do the entire summer of the George Floyd protests.

Yeah.

Look at all this violence.

Look at all the things burning to the ground.

That's nothing.

That's a peaceful protest.

You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

No, I mean it.

I'm not being facetious.

Think about it.

You feel me?

It drives me nuts.

Amazing.

Amazing.

By the way, another thing to think about here, Glenn, before we

finish the hour and Bill O'Reilly's coming up here in just a couple of minutes.

The spending process that we're talking about, this is from Brian Riedel at the Dispatch.

Add it all up, and the Democrats are laying the groundwork to add $6.1 trillion in new spending and tax cuts, including, or tax credits, excuse me, including the mostly unnecessary $1.9 trillion stimulus bill enacted just four months ago that would bring the 2021 binge just this year to a historic $8 trillion over the next decade.

How much is $8 trillion?

Enough for Washington to deposit $60,000 into each family's bank account.

And instead of that, what we're going to get is a mishmash of programs and nonsense that won't work at all.

That's what we're going to get.

$60,000 in everybody's bank account.

And if you think about it the other way, at a cost of $60,000 to every household, that's another way to kind of consider how serious this is.

It is.

And

$8 trillion, and nobody's really even blinking.

Nobody's blinking.

Remember when we said that would cost, you know, $10 trillion?

And they'd be like, that's over a 10-year period.

Yeah.

Well, and that's a year.

Well, it's a year when they're enacting it.

I mean, you're right.

A lot of this is over the 10-year period, but still,

what does that mean?

What happens next year when they say they want to spend $8 trillion over a 10-year period?

And he points that out in the piece.

A lot of these programs are, it's only $8 trillion because

they're giving these false ending dates.

Like, they're really not going to keep the child tax credit this high going into next year.

Really?

Right.

Really?

They're going to cut it in half next year?

Think of what the debate will look like in a midterm election year on that proposal.

All right.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is next.

Talk about the big news of the week, followed by Mr.

Brad Thor.

This is the Glenn Back Program.

Thank you very much, Hillary.

It is a really amazing podcast.

You don't want to miss it.

It's available now.

Amac.

Our nation is depending on all of us to stand up against the woke mob.

Otherwise, we're going to end up kneeling before them.

The question is, will you answer the call?

Many of us, many of us are.

If you're watching us, if you're listening to us now, you're probably part of that group.

But there are things that you can do that

help.

And because there is power in numbers, and one of those things is to join AMAC.

If you're over 50, you want to join the Association of Mature Americans, or AMAC,

they're calling on you to help them combat the indoctrination of our children and grandchildren at school.

They are taking a stand against it.

The integrity of our elections, they're standing for it.

Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to keep and bear arms.

They are standing against it, and they need more of us to join the ranks.

The bigger they get, the bigger our voice.

The more heft to that stick.

I want you to join now.

AMAC.us/beck.

Join now.

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

This

is

the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America.

It's Friday, and Bill O'Reilly joins us in 60 seconds.

The Glenback Program.

So, Nancy lives in Texas.

She writes in about her experience with Relief Factor.

She says, I love Relief Factor.

I can do so much more now.

After teaching riding lessons and taking care of my five horses daily, I used to be so tired.

but now I can keep on going, getting more yard work, housework, and cooking done on top of everything else.

I have more stamina because I don't hurt.

It feels so good to be able to do the things I used to do.

It did take a couple of months on Relief Factor for me to get the full effect.

It began quickly, but to get the full effect, it took a couple of months for me.

I keep taking it, and the improvement is amazing.

Thank you.

Thank you so much, Nancy, for all that you do and thank you for finding your life again.

We need everyone in the fight.

Now, Relief Factor is not a drug.

It is something that was developed by doctors and 70% of the people who try it go on to order more.

Why would you do that?

Unless you're seeing relief from Relief Factor, 800-500-8384.

Get their quick start trial.

It's a three-week trial period.

You should know in three weeks whether it's going to work for you or not.

800-500-8384.

800-500-8384 or relieffactor.com.

So I love the Twitter feed,

especially during the town hall on CNN from Bill O'Reilly.

Bill O'Reilly, I'm just going to read his Twitter feed here.

First 10 minutes of the Biden Town Hall, incredibly boring.

Not just boring.

Tweet one,

tweet number two, 16 minutes in and we're still on COVID.

The president says he listens to science.

Good to know.

Next, 30 minutes in, absolutely no news has been made other than the president wants school kids under 12 to wear masks.

Next tweet, a commercial break, thank God.

Next, I'm not being facetious.

No joke.

I'm being serious.

This town hall is tedious beyond belief.

And the last one is, it's almost over.

No joke.

I'm serious.

Bill O'Reilly.

Welcome to the program, sir.

Here's the deal.

It was painful.

It was a painful thing to watch.

I waited for the clips.

I knew this in advance, Bill.

I knew this in advance.

But we have to do our jobs as guardians of the country.

Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, guardians of the nation.

So I'm in a house.

Someone was nice enough to invite my son and I over for dinner.

There are a few people

in attendance.

And after dinner, we sat down to watch Don Lemon, always a treat.

Always a treat.

You know that.

Oh, okay.

Well, he's one of the most well-informed reporters in the nation.

I don't know if you know that.

I like Don Lemon personally,

but, you know, I mean, I'm not, I know what I'm going to get from Don.

But anyway, about halfway through, it was an hour and 20 minutes.

There was almost a brawl in the house.

People trying to grab the remote to turn anything else on.

Okay?

Anything.

Anything.

Can it Ben Gooley on with Revenge of the Mummy?

Get that.

Oh, so bad.

It was.

So bad.

It was, it was.

And then when the ratings come come in, a million five.

Now, if people don't understand the ratings,

if I got a million five viewers, you would have been in trouble.

I would have committed suicide.

Yeah, no.

Your average night, if I'm not mistaken, was about 3 million.

About five.

Oh, is it five?

Because

we had the two runs.

And five to six million.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Would you win?

yeah and that i knew he was gonna get i knew that the rate is gonna be low i didn't think they're gonna be that low and and also i wanted to this is another topic but the the olympics this summer is gonna get wiped out in a rate oh yeah i mean nobody oh yeah nobody nobody cares uh in fact i think people are rooting we may have a situation to where remember bill what we used to have the soviet union to root against

yeah we may have that situation again except we'll be rooting against america

Well, I don't know about that, but I know that I'm

the women's soccer team.

I mean, they're so

but

we got,

look, Sweden beat the U.S.

women's soccer team three to nothing.

Now, just step back a moment.

There is no grass in Sweden.

They have to practice on glaciers.

It's just frozen.

And they beat our team three to nothing.

Okay?

And I mean, I'm sitting there going, Sweden,

9 million people.

America, 320 million people, many of them female.

I got to tell you, I got to tell you.

We got our butts kicked three nuts.

Look, I said to the U.S.

women's soccer team coach, maybe you might want to do a little less kneeling and a little more running.

Run and shoot.

I have to tell you, the European Handball Federation has fined the Norway women's beach handball team.

I don't know if you heard this.

You haven't?

Oh, this is great.

Okay, so the Norwegian women's beach handball team, they were fined.

They came out

onto the scene wearing shorts, and

that's against the league policy.

They're supposed to wear wear bikini bottoms.

So I just,

I mean, when we are more

woke and,

I mean, we've turned into the worst

country in Europe.

We have just turned into the one, France.

Okay, I'm going to just say it, France.

We have turned in to France

when Europe looks like, oh, that's crazy.

huh?

They got their women's team wearing bikinis.

Something's wrong.

Something's wrong.

I don't know how you play handball on the beach.

Don't you need a wall and some kind of floor?

I don't know, Bill.

You're asking the wrong guy.

I have no idea.

All right.

So, Bill, there's a couple of things that I want to talk to you about.

First is Amy Klobuchar.

Do you think this is the big story of the week, or what do you think the big story is?

Well, Amy Klobuchar wants to limit speech, right?

Is that what you're talking about?

Yeah, the COVID misinformation, and she wants HHS to be able to label people, you know, who are engaged in dangerous misinformation.

Yes.

It sounds a lot like the Soviet Union.

Sure does.

Because, and I'm not being facetious here.

No joke.

Joe Biden might say.

This is no joke.

Right.

Okay.

Here's

serious.

All kidding aside.

Yes.

Next week is the anniversary in 1943 of Joseph Stalin passing a law in the Soviet Union during World War II that imprisoned anyone who was a coward.

That was the law.

Now, of course, Stalin was the one who decided if you were a coward or not.

So now in America, we have Amy Lobischer saying, hey, if you say something that we,

the federal government, don't like about COVID,

we're going to go after you.

Now, what's the difference between old Joe Stalin and young Amy Klobuchar?

Well, they will say that you are, you are misinforming people right now, Bill, because this is a health issue.

And Globichar says that there has to be an exception here for health misinformation because health information is deadly.

Well, we already know that climate change is a health issue.

We know that Antifa and their riots over the summer because of race, that was worse.

This is the CDC.

That was worse than the pandemic, the pandemic of racism in America.

We know that guns are a health issue.

I mean, pretty much,

the threshold.

You cross this threshold, and freedom of speech is done.

Well, there's no doubt the progressive left wants to limit freedom of expression and thought in America.

And no one could deny that.

I mean, I guess Don Lemon might, but no one really could say, no, no, these are real

ACLU people that want freedom of expression.

And by the way, the ACLU is not the ACLU.

Right, they're not.

They're right on board with, hey, you know, if we don't like what you're saying,

you got to go to jail.

Sorry.

You know, and you know what?

We're going to have bail.

We're not going to have bail for the people who commit manslaughter.

That'll let them right out.

But you,

not out, you got to go away.

Yep.

So this trend, and you're right to point out that what Senator Klobuchar is doing is trying to normalize this stuff.

All right.

Hey, yeah, we're doing this to protect you because of if Lenny down the street doesn't want to get vaxed, he's a danger to you.

I'm not sure about that.

Why would he be a danger to me?

If Lenny's an anti-vaxxer, I don't care.

Does that influence me?

No.

I do what my doctor recommends, which I think everyone should do.

All right.

And then I go on.

I don't really care about Lenny.

If Lenny wants to live in the basement unvaxed, that's okay with me.

He's not a victim.

Lenny is going to get out and he's going to infect other people.

I know.

It's kind of like that zombie thing, you know?

Yeah.

And that's really the genesis of the whole anti-vax movement.

The anti-vax movement kind of believes that the government somehow is involved with this vaccine, which is true to the extent that Trump got it up and running.

And that's the lead, as I told you, on the Trump O'Reilly history tour.

How did you do it?

But the anti-vax movement believes that somehow the government has put little chips in there and they're going to track you.

Correct.

Okay, fine.

Believe that fine.

But here's a very interesting thing.

While Amy Klobuchar and the progressive left are pounding the anti-vaxxers, they don't say a word about African Americans who won't get vaccinated.

And that, of all the ethnic groups in America, African Americans have the lowest vaxed rate.

And number two, Bill?

Number two?

Hispanics.

So I think Hispanics and whites are just about tied.

But

the problem as far as vaccine on the ethnic front is with African Americans.

And then you get Biden out there going, well, we understand that problem because of Tuskegee and in the past.

And you're looking at the guy going, wait a minute, do we live in a country where everyone is treated the same?

Obviously, we don't.

And it goes right back to the equity thing.

Like, well, we're going to give certain groups a pass, and they can really do what they want, even if they're public health dangers.

So you never hear Klobuchar say that, all right, about African Americans.

And I'm saying to myself, look,

you know,

the real threat to America is not from China and it's not from COVID.

It's from

we are turning on each other.

Because the media is pushing the progressive left dictum

some groups and some people in America are more entitled to better treatment than others.

And that's going to tear the nation apart.

Of course, it is.

Bill,

let me ask you:

when you say that the biggest threat against the nation is the progressive movement, it is, I think the progressive movement has turned into the Marxist movement now.

Would you separate the traditional Democrat liberal from that group?

Yes.

I mean, I know a lot of traditional Democrats who are not progressive nuts and who don't really know how to handle the situation now.

They're very confused on how to handle it because the progressives have the megaphone.

So

right off the top of your head, everybody listening to Beck and O'Reilly right now, name one progress,

one so-called moderate Democrat in the country that has any influence right now.

Name one.

You can't.

There's not one Hubert Humphrey.

There's not one Jimmy Carter.

There's nobody.

And you can't say Biden because Biden is captured.

He's being held high

on the show.

Not

by the progressive left.

I mean,

I don't know whether I'm sure this registered with you, but violent crime is like the second issue among Americans, right?

Oh, my gosh.

it's gone through the roof right right and so bite is up there for at least eight minutes explaining how cracking down on gun stores is going to stop violent crime nobody believes that there is literally nobody on earth with an iq

over a hundred that believes that or could possibly believe it yet there he is yammering about he's going to get a task force he's going to bring in bazookas i'll have more guns i'll blow them off because that we got to stop violent crime.

And then he goes, and by the way, community policing.

I mean, we don't need to arrest drug gang thugs who are gunning down children.

No,

we're going to bring in a social worker with the cops.

Okay?

It's like a remake of Dragnet with Jack Webb.

You remember that show?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

But in the back seat,

there's a shrink.

I mean, I'm just a fact.

But here's Dr.

Ruth, who's going to talk to you about why your son decapitated five years.

You know, really, really, the president of the United States is killing.

Well, hang on.

I want to go.

I want to go.

I want to finish this, particularly about the police and Joe Biden in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about RecTech.

I've been talking about RecTech now for over a year, year and a half, and I have one, and it is a game changer.

Stu is coming over tonight.

Stu, tonight are we getting together or is it tomorrow?

I don't know.

I'm not sure yet.

I might be busy.

It's not going to happen.

Well, apparently, we're waiting for your wife to respond to a text message.

I don't know.

Obviously, we sit in the same room.

We can't actually plan this ourselves.

I don't have to look at the wives out there.

We were supposed to get together.

We were going to make a pizza on RecTech

and then go to a movie.

But our wives can't get it worked out for some reason.

Anyway,

right now, this week only,

if you just call in, you're going to save 10%

site-wide.

This is a very rare sale, so take advantage of it.

From your cell phone, I just want you to dial pound 250 and say RECTEC.

You'll get 10% off everything site-wide.

That's pound250.

You say RECTEC.

You'll have the option to receive a one-time auto-dialed text message from RECTEC, which will, you know, you can use to

save 10%.

Check these grills out and then save right now.

Best grills on the market.

Pound 250, just say RekTech.

10 seconds station ID.

All right, Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

So

the president said, and I want to quote, these people, no, I mean it.

I'm not being facetious.

Democrats and Republicans, I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.

The fact is, you can't look at television and say nothing happened on January 6th.

You can't listen to people who say this was a peaceful march.

No, I'm serious.

Think about it.

Think of the things being said.

Now, I've been through the other end of this when the Democrats 35 years ago were way off on the other side.

Think about it.

I'm serious.

Okay, so I've got a couple of questions here.

You can't listen to people who tell you to don't believe your eyes what you see on television and say that that was a peaceful march.

Well, he's only talking about January 6th.

I don't know anybody who is actually saying that that was peaceful.

The people outside were peaceful.

Some of the people were peaceful.

Some of the people were extraordinarily violent.

And we should be talking about those people.

But doesn't that work, Bill, when you say

the people on television continue today to say that what's happening in Portland is peaceful, what happened all throughout last summer was peaceful?

Well, I mean,

I'm not sure what your question is.

So the people

do it.

Does anybody

are there people out there that still don't see that

when he says you can't listen to people on television that will say this was a peaceful march?

I don't know who those people are.

I don't hear that.

I don't know what channel Joe is watching.

I don't even know if Joe knows what channel he's watching.

But the progressive left, and that's who Joe represents,

they want to continue to demonize

anybody who voted for Donald Trump by saying, you know, it's your fault.

That Capitol riot is your fault.

If you voted for Trump and you like Trump, that's your fault.

See, that's the strategy.

So they'll keep it around.

And,

you know, what really caught my attention this week was Liz Cheney.

So Liz Cheney is a very conservative woman.

I don't think she's going to be reelected in Wyoming.

She's going to be primaried, and I think she'll lose.

But Liz Cheney hates Donald Trump, despises him.

Trump said bad things about her father.

And I understand that.

But now she's so crazed about Donald Trump that she says that Nancy Pelosi

is basically an objective leader

when it comes to investigating the Capitol riot.

So this is what Liz Cheney put out there.

And you don't want Jim Jordan on it?

You don't want Jim Jordan there.

She's furious

with the Republicans who now are not going to participate in Pelosi's

investigation because they wouldn't put Jordan and the other guy from Indiana on the panel.

And so I'm going, are you kidding me, lady?

I know.

And this is the first time in American history this has ever happened.

Nancy Pelosi did something unprecedented by saying, yeah, we're not going to, we're not listening to the other side.

We're not putting those people on.

Never happened before in American history.

Back with Bill O'Reilly in a second.

We have more with Bill O'Reilly next.

This is the Glenbeck program.

So glad that you've tuned in today.

It's Friday.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is with us today to give us a look at what's been happening this week.

Minneapolis City Council has advanced the plan to replace the police, Bill.

Meanwhile, the president and his administration are saying that the ones who want to defund the police are the Republicans.

Yeah, it's just propaganda, so I don't even bother with that.

But this is not a hard issue.

So when I was a local news reporter in New York City, a channel 2 WCBS in the 1980s,

New York City was a horrific place to be.

It was a crack

thing coming in, heroin all over the place, drug addicts running wild.

assaults you couldn't walk in Central Park after dawn after

dusk

It was horrible.

And a lot of my reporting was centered on that, so I know what I'm talking about.

And then in the 1990s, it got so bad they elected Rudy Giuliani as mayor.

And Giuliani came in with U.S.

attorney credentials and basically reorganized the police force to be a very, very aggressive, punitive force in the sense that it would arrest you.

You jumped over a turnstile in a subway.

If you did graffiti, you would be taken in, you would be prosecuted.

Well, the violent crime in New York was cut in half, sometimes even more than that.

Murders went from a high of about 3,500, 3,500 a year, to 350.

So you can see, then Bloomberg came in and he kept all of the Giuliani policies, the stop and frisk, the aggressive gun seizures on the street, and crime stayed very low.

So that's a fact.

There's no

theory about it.

There's no doubt about it.

That happened over an

almost 20-year period in New York City.

So then when the Blasio took over the communists, he just

blasted all of that out and said to the criminals, you can do what you want because it's society's fault, not your fault.

You're beating up the old grandmother and firing a weapon.

that might hit children.

It's not your fault.

It's because you were deprived growing up.

That's the Blasio.

And then the whole system, Cuomo, the governor, the DAs, all cooperated, and now we have a horror in New York City.

So I'm telling you about New York and not Minneapolis because I'm an eyewitness to this.

No, I know.

I know.

And

it's the same everywhere.

I mean, Bill,

any place that has defunded the police or, you know, really vilified the police,

you know, some cities, Los Angeles is in total chaos.

People are going into places like Target.

I just read a story.

I can't remember where it was.

But a group of people walked into a Target.

They just grabbed things off of the rack and they walked out.

The store owner said,

they didn't even run.

They're not afraid at all.

They just walked out.

Because they won't be prosecuted or arrested.

Yep.

So this is a fact.

That's the baseline for every American who cares about his or her country or the crime issue.

And then you have the president of the United States getting up there and saying, no, no, no, no, no, no.

The way to solve violent crime is to put a social worker in the backseat of the police car when the call comes in that's a guy with a gun

to point it at the head of his girlfriend or whatever.

That's the way to do it.

No, no, no, no.

And so is to me, that's insulting.

Number one, I'm insulted by the President of the United States being so dumb.

It's subversive.

It's what the President of the United States is doing, and remember, this stuff goes all over the world, he's basically saying, look,

I'm not going to solve the violent crime problem because closing down a bad gun store is not going to do it.

Here's a bulletin.

The violent drug gang criminals already have guns, Joe.

They didn't get them from the gun store.

all right they didn't they didn't buy retail okay

all right so there he is totally befuddled about everything no joke i'm not being facetious totally befuddled all right meanwhile thousands of people mostly minorities are dying in the streets while he's up there telling don lemons hey no we need to get community policing and put up a few volleyball nets and all these drug guys are going to stop i mean, really, just break it down to what it is.

And it's frightening.

Well, here's

subversive is a better word.

Because the strike force that he's put together for these, you know, the gun trafficking in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C.,

they're launching the Justice Department, launching a strike force in those cities.

So this is to stop the gun violence.

No, it's not.

This is to stop guns.

This is the, you watch.

This is the Bloomberg dream of getting people in, the federal government getting in to stop guns.

I don't think that they're going to be looking for gun trafficking.

They're going to be going after guns.

They're making a case.

And they will say the problem in Chicago is that they have access to guns, and we've got to stop the access to guns.

But don't bother the criminals, don't even arrest them

because they're victims of a bad, horrible America.

I don't know if you've seen what happened in

where was it, St.

Louis.

The St.

Louis circuit attorney

is, they now say, has essentially abandoned its duty,

her office.

She is a huge beneficiary of money from George Soros.

George Soros.

Yep.

And she didn't, they didn't even show up for a group of court cases, which led to the release of a murder suspect.

Nobody cares.

The subversive, no, I think the American people care, but I think that in the election next year, 2022,

that

is one of the most important elections in American history.

So if Americans don't come out and say,

look, we may not like Republicans or conservatives, but we cannot watch our country be destroyed by the progressive left.

We cannot.

It's got to be not a squeaker.

It's got to be that overwhelmingly the progressive left Democratic Party is rejected in 2022.

If that does not happen,

all of the corporate media, and I mean all of it now,

on the side of the progressives, promoting propaganda from the left, if the American people are not smart enough to do that or motivated enough to do it, to go out, all right,

then this country is now

going to descend into tribes.

So it'll be each tribe hires its own personal security, does what it wants to do, but there's not going to be any

cooperation among we the people.

We'll break down just like they did in medieval times.

And I don't think people understand how important 2022 is.

It is vital for this country to stop the madness, literally stop the madness, because that's what we're experiencing now.

And Joe Biden is going to go down, I said this very early on, as might be the worst president of the United States.

It's going to be close between him and James Buchanan.

I will tell you, if it doesn't go down, if things don't change in 2022,

he may go down as the last president of the United States.

I don't see that.

No, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Let me say it this way.

Not in name, but in who we actually have always been.

Well, the country will definitely veer out.

You know, you mentioned that.

We're not abiding by constitutional norms now.

We're not abiding by the Bill of Rights right now.

Everything that they're doing is much of it is

anti-Constitution and anti-Bill of Rights.

Yeah, they don't want the Constitution.

But even more importantly and more serious is that Americans have no protection anymore.

None.

The justice system is breaking down, particularly if you live in urban areas.

And this should infuriate African Americans and poor of all colors because you don't have any protection.

There's nobody protecting you.

If somebody hurts you, no matter if it beats you up or shoots you or stabs you or breaks into your house or your car, the odds are those people are not going to pay a price for doing that.

I mean, every American has got to get out of their fog

and understand exactly how dangerous Joe Biden is.

He looks like a hero.

Oh, yeah, I'm a

nice guy.

Oh, yeah, all that.

The man is dangerous because he doesn't know or seemingly care

what is actually happening inside the country.

Look, you know, I talked to Devin.

Go ahead.

Julian Stewart sitting in Dallas, right?

Yes, right.

Okay.

Give me one problem.

One.

In this country, as we are talking, that President Biden has put forth a solution to.

I can't.

I can do the opposite.

There isn't any.

Inflation, oh, that's not so bad.

We extend.

We don't worry about inflation.

Okay.

Crime.

Oh, we're going to surround the gun stores.

That's how we're going to do it.

The border.

Taxes, high taxes, the economy.

No, no, no.

We're going to take all the money from the corporations and the apple.

And well, Mr.

President, that's going to shut down job creation.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

No, I created more jobs, which is the biggest con in the world.

He did not, okay, because that was all COVID and his baseline was a COVID shutdown.

It's unbelievable.

And it's doing.

Yes, it is.

Bill,

when you look at

where we're at and Joe Biden

as our president,

You know, one thing that nobody is talking about is the incredible

loss of consciousness almost

in that town hall.

He went for, do we have the cut?

He went for almost 30 seconds, completely incoherent.

Yeah.

I mean, it was bad.

And

no one says anything about it.

Let me play the clip.

That's underway, just like the other question that's illogical.

And I've heard you speak about it because you always, I'm not being solicitous, but

you're always straight up about what you're doing.

And the question is whether or not we should be in a position where you

are, why can't the

experts say we know that this virus is in fact

it's going to be, or excuse me,

We know why all the drugs approved are not temporarily approved, but permanently approved.

That's underway, too.

I expect that to occur quickly.

And nobody says a word.

Well, everybody was somnambulant.

They were unconscious.

I mean, did you see the crowd?

I mean,

for the first 15 minutes, they were paying attention, and then all of a sudden, the phones came out, and they're all checking.

Get me out of here.

Can you send a call 911?

I want out of here.

Look, but I don't think there's anyone in the country, not even Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer, who would say we have an articulate president who can hold a thought in his mind and give a precise answer to a question.

We don't.

We don't.

And you know what the answer is when you present that to the liberal left?

Well, Trump was worse.

Everything was, Trump was worse.

No matter what you say.

No, no, Trump was worse.

Trump.

And I now have a moratorium.

My liberal friends are not allowed to do that.

They are fined if they do that.

And I'm saying to myself I do believe the Americans are going to rise up next year Beck I think they are going to do it now the corporate media is going to have to try to silence you and me

they're going to try to do that and I did a thing on billorilly.com where I said to my audience on the no spin news I knew when I announced the Trump O'Reilly history tour that I would be attacked I knew it.

So I hired two high-powered law firms, one on the West Coast, one on the East Coast, to to protect me because I knew it was coming.

And it did.

And my lawyers have done a fabulous job in trying to fend this off.

We do not do it in public.

We do not do any of that.

But because I signed on to try to get on the record the history of what Donald Trump did, actually did

and did not do,

why didn't the border go up?

Why didn't the border wall go up?

That'll be one of the questions.

Because I did that, there are elements, powerful elements, well-funded elements that want to destroy me if they could kill me they would all right now americans are going to start to figure this out that we're in a danger zone yeah my way to a danger zone kenny logic i think we're i i think we're uh already there and at least our audience understands that bill i've got to run i'm really running really late bill o'reilly make sure you grab his uh his latest book killing the mob and you can find him at billorilly.com um ever since it became easier to to watch TV, play on a computer, or glue a smartphone for the front of your face, those of us who know how important reading is have been screaming from the rooftops that our kids need to read more.

Hey.

Mr.

Brad Thor.

Hello, Glenn.

How are you, sir?

I'm doing well, thank you.

Yeah.

Good to be on with you.

You know, I remember the days when,

you know,

you'd send me a

a galley of the book, and you were very excited, and you'd be like, Glenn, I, I'm so excited.

You got to read this book.

And then it would come, and it was autographed.

The only reason I know this is because

I've been putting the books back in my shelf at the house, and I have all of your books, and most of the galleys, and they're all autographed, say, nice thing.

This time, I just got something from a PR person.

What?

Here's your book, Glenn.

Oh, man.

So only Stu got to sign one this year.

Don't lie for him, Stu.

Don't lie for him.

I will say the gold-plated

display case was a little over the top, Brad, but I did appreciate it.

And I will tell you, I also said I was not talking to you again

until your

hero, Scott,

walks into a room and somebody's listening to the Glenn Beck program

or just renewing their subscription on the Blaze.

It's not happening.

It's not happening.

Brad, it's good to to have you on.

You know, it's funny.

I didn't know you were coming on last week.

I didn't know you were coming on.

And

I watched, what is it, American Assassin,

the first movie of yours that was made.

And I forgot how good that was.

Really, really good.

Jesus, that was Vince Lynn.

That was Vince Flynn's book.

Thanks a lot, Glenn.

No, no, no, no, no.

So it's not American Assassin.

Which one is it?

I don't have any movies yet, Glenn, but thank you.

Why don't you just pour some lemon juice in that paper?

I thought that was really good.

It wasn't you wrong.

It was the Max I'm talking to here.

It wasn't you that wrote it.

I think Glenn's getting a little revenge for his lack of signed copy.

I just thought it was really good.

Did you write The Hunt for Red October?

Because I watched that and it was really good.

Nope, didn't write that one either.

Wow.

So, what have you written or done?

I got a couple.

Got a a couple out there.

How many, what is this?

The 20th or 19th?

20th in the Scott Harvath series.

Yeah.

Black Ice.

And

this one,

it starts and he's on vacation or, well,

he's having a good summer and he's on the fjord.

And he's got a girlfriend.

He's a little flow with

his very attractive girlfriend who works for the Norwegian Intelligence Service.

And I'm not even going to try to pronounce it because it has an O with a slash through it.

Solvi.

Solvi Kolstad.

Okay.

All right.

So tell me why this book is

as good as a Vince Flynn book.

Well, he's out of vacation days, out of sick days, and D.C.

calls, wants him back, or they want his resignation.

So he decides he's going to come back.

It's this calling.

He loves his job.

And he's getting ready to leave.

And he's walking out of a cafe in Oslo and sees a ghost climb out of a taxicab.

Somebody he killed years ago, halfway around the world, and that starts off a huge chase all the way up into the Arctic.

So here's the thing.

You and I have known each other.

We've been friends for a very, very long time.

And

I think I coined the term faction is what you write,

because it is, it's always based in facts.

And I can always tell what you're concerned about.

just by reading your books.

And in reading this one,

you are concerned about something happening in the Arctic

and

how far behind Russia and China are

in the area.

Can you tell me what you were thinking on this?

So I've been friends with the former National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien since college.

And this was an issue that I had brought up with him,

is China inserting itself into the Arctic.

So the Arctic is getting warmer and warmer, and the ice is melting up there, which provides a lot of opportunities.

And China, suddenly, the Russians were bad enough up there.

They've opened up 50, more than 50 old Cold War-era bases up in the Arctic.

So they're moving very quickly up there.

And China has declared itself a quote-unquote near Arctic state, which is the Seinfeld of diplomatic terms, because it means absolutely nothing.

The closest China is to the Arctic Circle, any settlement's over 800 miles away.

So China is trying to get a foothold up there.

They've got two icebreakers.

They're putting icebreakers up there.

We only have one, and it doesn't work very well.

Russians have 30.

We fell behind the curve.

Even Mike Pompeo said we are playing catch-up in the Arctic and there are why is it important that we're up in the Arctic?

So there are huge deposits of rare earth minerals, gas, oil.

There's a whole bunch of stuff up there that we're going to want access to on the commercial side.

On the national security side, we don't want Russia and China militarizing the Arctic and taking over that area.

China's been sneaking soldiers in, posing as scientists.

They're moving very quickly.

It is the next Cold War.

No pun intended, is what's going on up in the Arctic.

Okay, so that's why, that's what you're concerned about, but you also in it, and maybe it's maybe it's just me, but I felt there was a little Eric Swalwell

influence in this book.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes.

So that's, yes, very, very good, yes.

So the Chinese have all these different forms of statecraft.

And I joke in the book that they have as many forms of statecraft as the Eskimo have words for snow.

So there is a kind of a honeypot operation where someone the Chinese are trying to get influence in DC and they put a very attractive young woman, Chinese woman, Chinese woman living in LA, up to

sweetening a deal with somebody to try to get China's ends pushed through in Congress, correct?

Very good.

Yeah, no, I'm not a dummy.

I mean, I don't get, you know, any kind of phone calls from my friend to say, hey, I'm coming on, or anything like that.

But I do.

I mean, I'm not a dummy.

I do read.

Did Swalwell play any role?

Did Swalwell, the Fang Fang thing, play any role in this?

Yeah, I think that was something that was, you know, I was clipping a lot of articles out of the paper when this was happening.

And, you know, there have been people that have been busted for not registering as a foreign agent.

That's another thing that really makes me mad.

In fact, they just busted another guy for lobbying on behalf of UAE Monday.

So that kind of stuff, people trying to exert influence on behalf of foreign nations in not registering as an agent is something that I don't like, particularly when it's Americans doing it.

I just think it's absolutely terrible.

And I don't care what party you come from, you cannot do that.

You can't go in and try to lobby for China or somebody else and not, you know, basically wear it on your sleeve like an ASCAR uniform.

I want to know who's paying you.

Yeah.

You,

the spy, says something in the book that stuck out.

I underlined.

It said,

don't think of it as China.

Think of it as a consortium of investors along with an experienced Chinese oil and gas corporation.

What do you mean by that?

So

there is a lot of trying to put people at ease

when they're making these deals.

The Chinese, they're very happy to

let people wet their beak and make money off these deals, and they phrase it and put it in certain terms so that people really can tell themselves, lie to themselves, that they're not doing this on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party.

But that's exactly what's going on, regardless of who China puts up as a face on this thing.

The Chinese tried to buy a Canadian mining company in the Arctic so they could actually get some real estate in the Arctic that they could claim as theirs.

I mean, and the stuff they were doing in Norway, using a Chinese real estate investor and trying to use him to buy all this property up there.

So it is a creeping, endless thing as China pursues this Belt and Road initiative where they're putting money all over the world and then trying to influence the politics and the governments where they're making heavy investments.

And it's not a good thing.

How bad are we, Brad?

Well, you know, we've got a lot of problems, and it goes back decades and over multiple administrations.

I mean, you know, under Clinton, there was the missile technology from L'Oreal that got given to the Chinese, and

they bully the crap out of American companies who do business in China to turn over their sensitive trade secrets and things like that.

So it's a bad thing.

But the thing that steams me the most is that they were putting the brakes on the WHO in the beginning of COVID so that they could go around the world and try to buy up the PPE.

They knew it was coming.

They knew how bad COVID was going to be, and they still made the WHO drag their feet while they went around

gobbling up masks and all sorts of stuff.

It's just, we need to be much better as a country.

They are a national security threat.

Yet, if you're on cholesterol medication, guess where it comes from?

Yeah, no.

China.

We have sold our souls to the Chinese.

I mean, we're looking, we're the ones who invented the damn chip, and now we get all of the chips.

GM has stopped making trucks, and they say this chip shortage may go on until 2023.

Yeah, it's crazy.

And with two teens who needed cars,

it's nuts what's going on.

And if we don't get control of our supply chains and stop manufacturing critical items like PPE and like medications in China, we're never going to be able to stand up to them when we need to.

When you look at, I don't know if you saw what happened yesterday, but it felt like something that China China would do.

There came out and said that this was just a software update that caused a shutdown of like Bank of America's website,

AT ⁇ T.

I mean, a whole list of giant corporations were offline yesterday for a while.

And I thought, if this is a cyber attack, this shows how people just do not take us seriously and how far behind we are in our infrastructure.

And don't talk to me about the infrastructure Joe Biden is doing.

I mean, actual protection of our infrastructure.

We have, I think we're already in a war with China and

Russia.

It's just a cyber war, unlike we've ever seen before.

Are we prepared at all?

No, not on this front.

Not in what's called gray zone conflict, which is where the cyber attacks, that's the term for the arena in which those are happening.

And Glenn, you and I I years ago, years ago, talked about a white paper that was written by two Chinese PLA colonels called Unrestricted Warfare, where these Chinese strategists, military strategists, said there is no way they could ever beat the United States on the conventional battlefield.

So they needed to find other ways, things that we took for granted and thought were harmless, and could weaponize those and turn them against us and use them against us.

And that's where we're at, and we are woefully ill-prepared to handle handle this kind of conflict.

And it's not going to let up.

Look at

the gas pipeline that got shut down with ransomware from those Russian hackers.

It's bad.

And the Chinese, we hear all about the Russian hackers all the time, but the Chinese are even more sophisticated.

They have office buildings just full of these people that all they do is hack and look for vulnerabilities all day long.

Brad Thor, the author of a new thriller that is out perfect for the summer.

It's called Black Ice.

movie.

All right, let me tell you about Rough Greens.

Ray lives in Alabama.

He writes in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens.

He says, we've tried our share of supplements with our dog Boris.

are you gonna mess with a dog named boris

uh he would refuse any food i am not eating food without supplement on that he's a very finicky eater and he'll refuse the food he doesn't like regardless of how hungry he is we started boris on just a trace of rough greens and he was a little hesitant to try it however we were able to get him to eat it and soon he would eagerly eat his meals without half to three quarters of the recommended dose even with that he's happier healthier He's ready to play at a moment's notice.

Glenn, thank you so much.

Ray, thank you for giving it a try.

And I love the fact that you named your dog Boris.

It's not a dog food, it's something you put on your dog's food.

It's a supplement filled with all the things that make your dog healthier and happier.

Brad Thor.

Hello, Glenn.

It's been a long time, Brad.

It's good to have you back on, man.

Oh, yeah.

I'm loving this one.

Did you forget about how much you loved being interviewed by Glenn Beck?

Did you?

Yeah,

all-time career high today.

This is great.

Were you ever interviewed by Amos?

Was I ever, what?

Interviewed by Imus.

Oh, God, yeah.

He told me he was going to come down to Nashville and whoop my ass.

He was a rough guy.

And I said, who's going to hold the oxygen bottle for you, Don?

Wow.

I step on your hose.

That's it.

Game over, old man.

Yeah, he was great.

Well, I just wanted to make you feel like you were on on the Imus in the Morning program today.

Thanks a lot.

You're welcome.

Call my therapist now.

Well,

I mean, you need somebody to take you down a notch.

You know, you're walking around.

Oh, I've got

20 number one bestsellers.

Look at me.

I'm a big deal.

I don't need my friends anymore.

I don't need to send him a book.

I don't need to do that.

I'll get somebody else on my team to do that.

Make sure Jeffy hides the book in his office, Stu, please.

How have things been with you?

They've been good.

They've been good.

You know, we tried to find the bright spot in the pandemic with, you know, our daughters leaving for college in a couple of weeks.

And we said, when were we going to get the chance to have our teenagers home 24 hours a day, seven days a week?

And that was, it was looking at the bright that lasted a couple of days.

That was

yeah, we didn't enjoy it for very long.

We enjoyed it for about, I think, three months.

And then it got really dicey, really dicey.

And we had to fumigate my son's room.

But

it was tough.

It was tough.

I mean, at the end, I think our family is closer than it's ever been.

But it was really tough.

And they're talking about doing it again.

Yeah,

that's the scary thing.

I'm watching this.

And, you know, my wife, Trish, is a doc, and she came from a medical research background before she ever became a doctor.

And, you know, we're eyeballing

the Delta variant.

But what scared the crap out of me this week is how now all the Republicans are coming out telling people to get vaccinated.

Mitch McConnell and

Sean Hannity saying stuff.

Everybody's singing from the same hymnal all of a sudden.

And it makes me wonder what the Biden administration reached out and told them because now everybody's coordinated.

I'll tell you what happened at Fox with me.

There was a point where I was called into an office and they said, you got to stop talking.

I don't even remember what it was.

Stop talking about this.

And I said, hmm.

And they said, look, you're destroying the network.

You know, they said, we can't get, we are being told we will be blocked from every press conference

unless you stop talking about such and such.

And I didn't stop talking about it.

It was a rough, a rough few months there towards the end.

But I think the White House has an awful lot of power when it comes to news.

They have an awful lot of power.

And are you against the vaccine?

No, I got vaccinated as quickly as I could.

So I'm actually glad that they're encouraging people, but it was so weird they wouldn't.

And you've got Tommy, Tuberville coming out.

It's just all of a sudden there's a concerted effort on the right to encourage people where a lot of people were playing peekaboo with it, not taking a position, not really talking about it.

Even Steve Steve Scalise has come out.

He's like, I just got the vaccine.

So, the fact that everybody's pulling the oars in the same direction in this polarized, partisan, tribal warfare culture scares the crap out of me because I'm wondering why all of a sudden are we all on the same message?

Well, unless something bad's coming up.

I mean, don't you think that everybody is concerned a little bit?

I know we are concerned about, you know, Klobuchar yesterday coming in and saying HHS is going to have

power to be able to say what's misinformation, what's not, and

we're going to start punishing those who are spreading misinformation.

I don't even know what misinformation is at this point on COVID.

Yeah, I mean, because stuff change, stuff changes, and then they back up, and then you can reinstate certain tweets now that the facts on the ground have shifted.

You know,

I don't like silencing speech because it is a slippery slope.

You know, it's okay.

Well, your stuff incites racism, so that's bad and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

You know,

it is scary that it's coming to this.

Again, I worry, what do they know?

What are they so afraid of is coming that they've spooked all the Republicans to get on message and now they're going after the social media companies for disinformation.

I'm spooked.

I don't know if what they're seeing is too many breakthrough infections and they're worried about the vaccines basically being rendered useless for the rest of us by the way more hang on more in a second with brad thor

More with Brad Thor.

Next.

Back when our

government was smart,

we ran something called the Red Cell Project.

And Brad Thor was part of that.

He was part of some of the best fiction writers in America that write action fiction.

And they brought him into the Pentagon and said, come up with scenarios that we may not be thinking of of on

how we could be hit by terrorists.

Brad is a guy who studies this deeply.

The one reason why I like him is he'll tell the truth of what he feels and what he's thinking, what he's worried about.

And there's no whole bar because he's an author.

And so you can kind of think out loud with him.

He has a new book out called Black Ice.

It is the 20th in his number one series, Black Ice available Available Now for the Summer.

Another great summer read from Brad Thor.

Brad, we had to cut you off because you just kept going, going.

But I want you to give you the opportunity to finish the thing you were talking about,

what you were concerned about with

why everybody is starting to say, got to have the vaccine, got to have the vaccine.

Yeah, so I'm pro-vaccine, and I got vaccinated as quickly as I could.

But I watch things.

I listen for what's being said as well as what's not being said.

And so there was this resistance on the right in certain corners to be pro-vaccine.

There was kind of this catering to the anti-vax crowd.

And we know that the Russians love that anti-vax stuff.

They've been pushing anti-vax propaganda via Facebook and stuff before COVID even hit.

So we're playing into the enemy's hands when we distrust the vaccine and things like that.

So, you know, there's things that we can do to get people more on board, you know, take, no longer make it an emergency use authorization, get the FDA to fully approve it so that people will have that added confidence.

But it is interesting that you've got Steve Scalise, Mitch McConnell, you know,

Hannity, Sean saying stuff.

Everybody's pulling on the oars in the same direction all of a sudden.

And that's weird.

And it makes me, it's good.

It's good.

I would have loved to have had this a long time ago, and I'm glad to have it now.

But the fact that everybody's on board this week just really makes me wonder what does the White House see coming?

What does you know are the CDC, what's going on that they spooked.

It feels to me like suddenly the Republicans got a talking to and got spooked and they're like, oh boy, yeah.

Can I ask you a question?

It started over in Wuhan

and it spread all around the world.

Was China after Wuhan?

I I kind of lost track.

Did it affect China as deeply as it did the rest of the world, all across China?

No,

but they're a different type of government.

They can seal a city and not let anybody out.

They can tell you, don't leave your house.

You know what I mean?

When we do things here, they expect about 50%

of the people are going to actually abide by the public health guidelines.

In China, they can get that up to 100%.

They find you on the street, they'll throw you in the gulag.

So it's a little bit different, but they did very well economically.

I mean, they didn't take the massive hit that we took.

So, yeah, it's, you know, my niece was on one of the last flights out of there.

She was doing a church mission in Wuhan, and we just got her home in time.

Yeah, no, so it was, we were glad to get her out of there.

But, yeah, listen, better late than never on the messaging.

I want everybody to be healthy.

We're seeing, you know, just hospitals filling up again.

I don't want people to have COVID.

There are potential long-term implications.

Yeah, it's bad.

It's bad.

I had it.

I got it.

Strangely, right after I stopped taking hydroxychloroquine,

stopped taking that.

And all of a sudden, my family had had it, but I was on hydroxychloroquine.

And

the family all got it.

I skated through.

Six months later, I stopped taking hydroxychloroquine, and I got it almost immediately.

So, but don't worry about that.

That was medical misinformation.

Brad, let me ask you.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, I know.

I did take that and

it worked.

I'm telling you, it worked.

You know,

you talk about the Arctic Circle and China and Russia in black ice.

Let me stay on China here for a second.

Because you are saying that a Cold War is happening.

I worry about a hot war.

And here's why.

China is not messing around.

China has already just taken Hong Kong, and nobody said a word.

The next thing they are going to do is take Taiwan.

They're already positioning for it.

They're letting the world know that's theirs.

They're silencing the speech of anyone who says it's a separate country, separate of China.

By the way, Taiwan is an independent country separate from China.

And I don't think we have an obligation to protect Taiwan, but I don't think we're going to.

No, I don't think we're going to either.

And in fact, if you look at what happened in Ukraine with Putin going and taking the Crimean Peninsula, nothing happened.

There was a strongly worded letter from the Obama administration, and they got kicked out of the, what was it, the kicked out of the G9.

There are no consequences.

And if we don't enforce these kinds of red lines, then nobody's going to respect us.

And the other big thing that came out was the whole study about the U.S.

Navy: that we are not doing well with our Navy.

It's in bad shape.

We're hoping a new Secretary of the Navy is going to be able to turn things around, but

it's bad.

Instead of teaching people to kick ass in the Navy, we're teaching them to kiss ass.

And that's how you rise through the ranks.

Guys like Nimitz and Hall, people who helped us win World War II, couldn't be admirals today.

So

let me go back to Taiwan.

Because you said what I was driving towards.

If we let people pass lines, no one will respect us.

I don't want to get involved in a bunch of foreign wars and everything else.

However, this Taiwan has always been a very bright red line.

If we pretend like we're going to continue this policy and protect Taiwan, and China goes in and we do nothing, Literally, where is our power?

Is it all gone?

It's absolutely gone.

On the world stage, the ability to influence anyone is completely gone.

When the Soviet Union broke up, about a third of their nukes were in Ukraine, and we begged Ukraine to get rid of them.

We'll help you get rid of them.

And Ukraine said, Well, what's in it for us if we get rid of our nukes?

And we signed a pledge to Ukraine saying, We will never let anybody invade you.

We'll never let anybody take over your territory.

And then Putin did just that.

And so that wasn't worth anything.

It was supposed to be a bright red line.

And the Obama administration just let Putin walk right across it.

So I don't have a lot of hopes.

If China grabs Taiwan, I don't have a lot of hopes that that's a red line that we're going to go to war over.

I think people are tired of war in this country.

After Afghanistan and Iraq, we are a war-weary public.

And I think bad actors are going to take advantage of that.

Last question for you, brad um my son rafe since you last saw him has grown up he's uh he's turning 16 next month and uh

uh he is i mean he's turning into a man all of a sudden and he he announced to me a couple of uh a couple of weeks ago that he's thinking about either being a navy seal or marine force recon

wow and uh

I said a couple of things, better study a little bit more.

And And the second thing is I didn't vocalize, was I'm not sure I want him to go into the military because I'm not sure what the military is going to be like in three years with all of the stuff that is going on

with, you know, CRT and all this garbage.

Yeah, so that is a big, big issue.

So my thing has always been if we have an all-volunteer force, if you go and sign up and do your,

do

a patriotic act of

selflessness by joining the military, I want you to be respected.

I want you to be treated well.

I don't want, I don't care if you're gay or straight.

If you're willing to pick up a rifle for this country, God bless you.

I am so grateful for you.

But I don't think we should be adopting any kind of indoctrination that teaches one group of people that just because of their skin color that somehow they are racist or, you know, if if Mark Milley wants to read books to better understand black culture so that black soldiers can feel more

part of the Army.

I didn't know that there was a problem where black soldiers were feeling they weren't integrated fully into the army.

If that issue exists or it's a hard thing to do to recruit in the black community and that's just a book, I'm big on book reading.

If that helps you appeal better to that community to recruit, good, do it.

But I don't want to see white soldiers taught that somehow they're inherently evil just because they were born white because that's not true and

that's not how we make fighting men and women is fractioning the service up like that.

That's not how you do it.

So would you send your son into the military today?

Absolutely.

I'm the son of a United States Marine.

And if my son said, I want to go serve, I would be proud to see him join the military.

All right.

So take out your, you know, your family history.

Navy SEAL or Marine Force recon.

Which one?

Well, boy, that's.

Because remember, you're going to replace Scott with Rafe

in one of the books.

So, you know, which one should he go?

I hope he likes cold water.

Yeah.

He's going to get a bunch of it both ways.

I know.

I know.

They're both fantastic.

They're both absolutely fantastic.

So,

you know what?

You can't go wrong.

That is a no-lose situation.

You're going to do a lot of swimming

in either camp.

Yeah.

All right.

Brad Thor, thank you so much.

Good to talk to you, my friend.

You too, buddy.

Thank you.

It's Brad Thor, the name of the book that is out right now, and he is always, is he off?

Okay, I'll tell you the truth.

Every one of his books is fantastic, just fantastic, always worth a great read.

I think

he and Vince Flynn were my favorite writers and still are my favorite writers of

faction.

as I like to call it.

This latest is Black Ice by Brad Thor.

All right, I want to talk to you a little bit about a service called VidAngel.

VidAngel gives you control over the content in your homes.

So for instance,

my wife and I,

we watch,

oh shoot, what's the name of that stupid with Ken, Kevin Costner up in Wyoming,

Yellowstone.

We watch Yellowstone.

And, you know, it's not something that we would watch with the kids.

And, you know, I wouldn't mind it if, you you know, some of the scenes

weren't in it.

We discovered a service called VidAngel.

VidAngel gives you control over the content in your home.

If you've ever said, there's nothing that we can watch as a family, because everything has swearing in it now.

Everything is using the F word.

I mean, it's crazy.

It's crazy.

If you've ever felt that way, you need to sign up for VidAngel because it doesn't edit things.

It allows you to skip parts that you don't want to see.

So you set the filters for what you want to see or what you don't want to see in your home.

You don't want to see, you know, everybody hot and lathered up and, you know, in bed.

You don't want to have foul language.

You set what the language is, how much of it you can tolerate all the way to none,

and it will take and cut that thing down.

It doesn't cut it.

It just filters it out.

and you just skip that part of it.

It's quite amazing.

It's vidangel.

You can find it now at vidangelbeck.com.

Use the code Beck1 and try vidangel for a month for only a dollar.

They've got 11,000 episodes from TV, 2,500 movies that already have the algorithm.

So

you can just

skip all the parts that you don't want to see.

Yellowstone, I think, is one of them.

Vidangel at vidangelbeck.com.

The Glenn Beck Program.

So I'm going to give you the

latest poll.

This is not a good poll.

We would like to know how you would rate race relations between various groups in the United States these days.

Would you say that race relations between white and black people are very good, somewhat good, somewhat bad, or very bad?

Back in 2001, it was very to somewhat good, 63%,

to bad, somewhat bad, 35%.

And it got as far away as 72 to 26 by 2004.

Then it started to narrow as we started to go in towards the election of 2008.

It went 64, 34

in 2006.

Then it went up in 2007, 71 to 28.

And then Obama actually held it pretty steady.

at 68 to 30, which is, to me, remarkable.

And then

something happened in 2013.

It went from 70

positive to

and 30 negative.

By 2015, it was 53 negative to 47 positive.

Now, what could that have been?

That number, that poll was taken in 2015.

I think that was the lead up to the election.

I think that was the,

you know, the BLM,

the first marches of BLM had just started.

And then you had the election.

And of course, Donald Trump, who was really popular with African Americans, had to be separated from African Americans, so they had to start calling him a racist, etc., etc.

And it went 53 negative, 47 positive.

Once he got into office, it was 53 positive, 46 negative until 2019.

That's when we start to see the switch.

2019, it goes haywire, and it is growing ever wider apart.

It's now 57, 42 negative.

How do you think things are

with race relations?

We haven't seen this in a very long time.

And

it has been very expensive for the left.

It has taken an awful lot of work and brain power, but congratulations, they have succeeded in splitting this nation apart and reversing trends that we had been making in positive ways since the 1960s.

We had been making progress.

Now they have reversed that.

That's Thank you to our teachers that are insisting on teaching critical race theory.

Thanks to our labor unions that are doing the same.

Thanks to the media.

Thanks to the Democratic National Party.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
