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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

Well, I found out from NPR

things are bad in

Israel and the occupied territories of Palestine.

Found out how bad things really are.

We go to Israel and the lies from the media, the,

it feels like

everybody has gone insane in the world.

Doesn't it feel like the last four years never happened?

I mean, at low gas prices, we were self-reliant.

There was peace in the Middle East.

Now,

I mean, it feels like...

It feels like Trump has been erased.

All of his policies reversed, which, by the way, they've reversed another policy.

And you tell me why they've done it.

We'll start there in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck Program.

Let me tell you about Relief Factor.

Julia lives in Texas.

She suffered for years from the intense pain in her hands that made it difficult to do her job, even kept her from doing things she wanted to do around the house.

Julia, I know exactly how you are feeling.

I used to suffer from pain in my own hands so bad I could barely do anything with them.

I had to stop writing because I like to actually write with ink and paper.

I know kids are like, why would you do that?

And I like to paint and I could barely paint anymore.

I don't know if you've followed me on Instagram, but I'm painting up a storm now.

And it's because of Relief Factor.

Julia heard me talking about Relief Factor on the program.

She decided to give it a try.

And guess what?

Like me, Julia got her hands and her life back.

Relief Factor, it's not a drug, but it was developed by doctors.

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

You can order the three-week quick start for only $19.95.

So you don't really have anything to lose except your pain.

Yeah, you might be out $20 if you're part of that 30% where it doesn't work, but at least you'll know.

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

Why would you do that unless it works?

Because you'll know if it works within the first three weeks.

It's relief factor.com.

ReliefFactor.com or call 800-500-8384.

800-500-8384.

It's relief factor.com.

Holy cow.

Holy cow.

Look at what them Jews have done now.

If you look at the stories today, you're gonna see that the associated press has come under fire

yep yep

uh apparently the

israelis bombed the ap building i mean

what will they do next

now they claimed that uh uh hamas militants in gaza were sharing office space with the associated press but that would be something something the Associated Press would report, wouldn't it, Stu?

I mean, you would, I mean, if they were, if they had, you know, militants in their office building, they'd know it, and of course they would report it.

Same with Al Jazeera, which is also in the same building.

Yeah, it would be really shocking if they didn't turn that information over to

their viewers, their listeners.

I mean, it would just be stunning if they just didn't do anything about it.

Well, in 2014, now they say they had no idea, no idea, and they think this is an attack on the press.

But in a 2014 piece from The Atlantic written by a reporter in the region, they detailed a long and questionable history between the AP and the jihadist group.

Quote, when Hamas leaders surveyed their assets before this summer's round of fighting, this is 2014.

Remember when there was fighting between Israel Israel and

the Gaza Strip?

Remember that?

That was before Trump and then, strangely, immediately after Trump.

When Hamas leaders surveyed their assets before this summer's round of fighting, they knew that among those assets was the international press.

The AP staff in Gaza City would witness a rocket launch right outside of their office, endangering reporters and other civilians nearby, and the AP wouldn't report it.

Again, this is from the oh so very conservative Atlantic

the journalists at the time claimed that Hamas fighters would regularly and I'm quoting burst into AP Gaza bureau and threaten the staff and the AP wouldn't report it end quote

so

wait a minute

The AP didn't know they were sharing a building with Hamas for 15 years, even though in 2014

the Atlantic reported on it and was quoting people from the AP?

Wow, that

seems weird.

Now, it doesn't give a lot of credit to the AP.

You know, it kind of hurts their credibility a bit, you know,

if they were able to miss Hamas,

you know,

Hamas staging right there, you know, like a Sweet 203,

it would be

kind of hard to take them as a credible source.

Wouldn't it?

Maybe just a little bit?

Yeah, maybe.

I mean, you'd it would be an odd building Christmas party, I would feel like when you know Hamas shows up, right?

But I do feel like

you might not want to have a Christmas party or a Hanukkah party.

No, I mean,

probably not real.

No.

So it's an odd way to confess that you're completely incompetent,

but hey, the AP's, you know, not opposed to it.

Well, I don't think you have to confess it if you blame the Jews for lying about it.

You could just say it's not true and then just say those Jews are lying once again.

We all know how shifty they are, you know.

And then you just kind of pop that out there and everyone goes along with it immediately.

I mean, that's because you're pointing it, you're making it sound like they've admitted this was true.

I mean, they're not.

They're just saying.

Well, they did.

No, no, no.

They did in 2014.

Sure.

Yeah.

I mean, in 2014, they were very well aware, you know,

when their reporters talked to the Atlantic,

which.

Oh, my gosh, that is a liberal magazine, isn't it?

I was thinking that it was a really, really, really conservative magazine, but I just remembered it's not, is it, Stu?

It's pretty much Breitbart, Glenn.

I think I'm pretty sure.

Okay, okay, all right, okay.

Yeah, so in 2014, they knew about about it, but maybe it was one of those damn Israeli rockets that gave them amnesia, and now they can't remember it at all.

What did you have for lunch on this day in 2014?

You're not going to forget.

I remember it.

So a terrorist comes in and threatens your staff in the middle of writing a report.

Right, you forget.

It's easy to forget these things.

It is right, right, right.

Now, I did listen to NPR this morning because I want to know

what all the news is, and I am sure that I'm going to get great news coverage

from NPR.

And boy, they didn't disappoint today.

Listen to the report about Israel.

Let's go now to NPR's Daniel Astron, who is in Jerusalem.

Hey there, Daniel.

Hi, Steve.

How widespread is the destruction of Gaza?

Well, these Israeli attacks happened overnight, and every night seems to be more intense than the one before.

Stop for a second.

Stop for a second.

I just want to reiterate this because it's going to become important.

Well, these Israeli attacks

have gotten worse and each night is bigger than the night before.

So remember, last week was horrible.

I mean, just horrible.

People were dying in the AP building.

Oh, no, that was this weekend?

Yeah.

And so it was just...

Oh, and nobody died in the AP building?

why is that

they gave they gave a warning yeah they warned them in advance and they were they have video of them all collecting their belongings before they could get out of the building that's weird they gave them an hour i'm being told just now in my era they gave them an hour stu to uh get out so ha that's weird um okay all right anyway so he says every day

They are getting worse

and worse.

Hey, go ahead.

Drill says scores of warplanes again attacked another part of what Israel calls the underground metro.

That is what they call underground tunnels.

They say Hamas has dug under Gaza to move its fighters and rockets from one place to another.

It says it bombed about nine miles of those tunnels overnight.

We don't have any word of casualties from that, but these strikes have been keeping Palestinians up all night, terrified.

I just got off the phone with a 65-year-old woman, Kifaya Abu Jayab.

Let's listen.

She says, We didn't sleep at night at all.

I felt like my heart stopped.

And she is one of the tens of thousands of Palestinians not only facing fear, but facing short water supply.

She says she fills up her buckets to use water to bathe and clean when she does get water.

She has just a few hours of electricity a day.

And that was just last night.

The biggest, deadliest Israeli strike so far in this fighting was Sunday.

Several multi-story residential homes collapsed.

42 people, including including very young children, were killed.

Well, has Israel provided evidence to justify one particular strike over the weekend, Daniel?

I'm talking about the destruction of a large building that housed the Associated Press Gaza Bureau.

Yeah.

That's right.

That building completely collapsed in the Israeli strike.

Israel says Hamas military intelligence was using the building as well, and that destroying the building had crippled Hamas's command and control capabilities.

Israel has not published evidence of that.

And although Israel warned the building an hour before there were no casualties, people escaped.

I don't know why Israel didn't tell the Associated Press to...

Stop.

Stop.

So, wait.

So, deadly attacks, yes, but they lead

with this crime against humanity.

These bombs are keeping people awake.

People are losing sleep over this.

Now,

I have to tell you, I think that's a little out of balance.

Are the Is Hamas keeping Israelis awake?

No.

No.

You know,

I had a similar situation at my home this weekend where my wife is always cold and she refuses to put the air conditioning on when we sleep.

And I woke up in the middle of the night too warm to sleep.

Too warm.

Too warm to sleep?

Is there a Jew in your neighborhood?

I don't know the answer to that.

I don't know.

Is she Jewish?

Does she have any Jewish blood?

Get a spit test.

Get a spit test because,

oh my gosh.

I've been feeling her head for a while.

I've got to do something about it.

I'm going to have to go ahead and get it so far of not come up.

Have you really?

Yes.

Really?

Yeah.

Well,

you know what?

I tell you, you know what?

The world needs now,

according to the CNN contributor.

The world needs now a, let me just get this quote: the world today needs a Hitler.

So

that was from a, hmm, just

from a CNN contributor there.

To be fair, he never mentioned what member of the Hitler family.

He just said any, I mean, could have been one of the nice ones.

I mean, who knows?

Judith.

Francis was great.

Judith Hitler.

Sweetheart.

Sweetheart.

She could knit.

She made throw blankets for the whole family.

Maybe that's what.

I mean, not all the Hitlers are bad.

So maybe that's what he meant.

Maybe that's what he meant.

It needs a Hitler, not the Hitler.

I don't want you to keep saying that.

Oh, my gosh, what?

We're talking about

Scott.

We're talking about Scott Hitler.

Scott Hitler.

What did Scott Hitler do?

What a sweetheart of a guy.

What was Scott Hitler?

Yeah, what's he known for?

Scott was a mechanic on Long Island.

Really?

Scott Hitler.

Yeah.

And, you know, the world, we don't have, you know, with the,

I'm just, I'm trying to think about a deal Raja and what he meant by this.

And Scott probably, because he's a sweetheart of a guy, he used to go to the Knights of Columbus and he would play bingo and sometimes he'd let the old ladies win.

It was really sweet.

But he also was a mechanic.

And, you know, we have a lack of

silicon chips now.

And I'm sure Scott can help out.

You know?

Well, I guess one of my questions,

because I have several, but one would be, if you're you're going to set up a business

and your last name is Hitler, do you choose Long Island, where there's

generally a higher population of Jewish people who might not be enticed to go to a Hitler's mechanic.

They hate

just because, you know, just because

one Hitler hated the Jews.

Right.

Don't pass that on to Scott or Julia or Francis.

Right.

That's true.

Okay.

Don't, they can't, you know, we don't condemn people for their, you know, for their ancestry.

You know, just because one of yours was one of the biggest killers of all time doesn't mean you are, right?

Right.

You're not the same as your brother or sister.

Just like I'm sure the Hitler fail.

I just feel like there'd be a risk there, a risk factor.

Maybe he didn't mean Scott.

I don't know.

But

he did tweet, the world today needs a Hitler.

When CNN was asked to respond, they said, we've never heard of Adil Raja.

Never heard of him.

And then later, they were like, oh,

that's a good thing.

He'll never work here again.

I'll tell you that right now.

Okay.

So we got that going for us.

Thank you very much.

And our apologies to Scott for even bringing your name into any of this.

All right.

By the way, it's not, I mean,

his real name, he had it changed.

It's not Scott.

It was Dave.

And he had it changed when he moved here.

Patriot Mobile, what's better than 50% off your first two months of Patriot Mobile?

How about winning cellular service for life?

When you go to patriotmobile.com slash Beck, you can learn how to get 50% off your first two months of service and enter to win

cellular service for life.

I don't know why I have a hard time saying that today.

Oh, it's just one of those things that gets you into the Radio Hall of Fame, I guess.

Not being able to speak English.

Plus, a free Patriot starter kit when you join America's only Christian conservative mobile phone company.

Patriot Mobile has the broadest nationwide coverage and it uses the same towers as all of the major carriers, so you get the same great service.

Plus, they have plans to fit any budget, including multi-line discounts.

Most importantly, Patriot Mobile shares your values and doesn't donate any of your your money to support leftist causes.

By the way,

there was a pro-Palestinian

group in London that were marching in the street.

And you gotta love them.

You gotta love them.

I mean, you know, you're on the right side when

the people that,

you know, you agree with their stance are chanting, F the Jews,

F their daughters,

F their mothers, rape their daughters.

I think that's good.

I think that's good.

It's interesting, too.

It seems in some ways repetitive.

If you're saying you're going to rape their daughters, you've already insinuated

the F your daughters part of it.

You're just repeating yourself at that point.

And why be so vulgar?

Why not just use the word rape?

You know what I mean?

That is the big problem here.

Why assault our sensibilities

and really bring civilization down to that level by using profanity like that.

And to be clear, I think the Associated Press would probably agree with me on this.

This is probably the Jews' fault in some way.

That

I think the Associated Press is working on that story right now.

And

maybe the CNN contributor is working on that story now.

Hey, by the way, the world needs a Hitler.

Yeah, that wasn't pulled down by Twitter.

That was

surprisingly, three hours later, that was pulled down by a jealous Raja.

Really?

Yeah, he thought, I should pull that one down.

But

Twitter didn't pull it down.

People didn't understand that he was saying the world needs a good mechanic.

Right.

That's exactly right.

They just need a good Long Island mechanic.

By the way,

you can still find Bollywood actress Veena Malik, who I love.

She's your favorite.

I remember you got that whole box set, right?

Yeah, oh, yeah.

Yeah, Dancing on the

Tim the Nine of the

big thing

where they go to wash the cows, the river, the.

Yeah, right.

I remember that.

Anyway, Dancing on That River.

That was a great movie.

Anyway, anyway,

she posted last week, I would have killed all the Jews of the world, but I kept some to show the world why I killed them.

Adolf Hitler.

She did that last week.

You still find that.

Oh, no, she's just deleted it, too.

She

deleted it.

Yeah.

Well,

she was not talking about Scott Hitler.

She specifically said she was talking about Adolf.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So she was like, probably Scott called her and said, hey, I fixed your car, you know, when nobody else would.

Why are you doing this to my family?

Adolf's dead, okay?

Adolf's dead.

I get to blame now.

My business is hurt every time somebody drives by Hitler's garage and they're like, what?

Well, it's got to be tough when you've got the garage and you're trying to, you know, hopefully people don't associate you with Adolf, but then like the slogan is never forget.

So it's really hard to get past that.

Like,

the goal is not to forget it.

And every time they come by your side, they're thinking, I'm remembering it again.

Yeah, right.

It's kind of bad.

It's kind of bad.

All right, Pat Cray is coming up, kind of talk about some of the other things that are going on

around the

world.

Also, I have a letter from Harry Truman that he wrote about the press.

I have to share it with you today.

He compared them to,

quoting Harry Truman, compared them to a great whore.

And you have to hear the whole letter.

It gets so much better.

And I think you'll agree.

This is the Glenbach program.

All right.

Going on vacation with my family soon.

One of the main things I have to pack is my pair of Raycon wireless earbuds, mainly because we're driving.

And you know what it's like 23 hours in a car with teenagers?

Yeah, right.

They want to listen to whatever they want to listen to.

And I want to listen to an audio book and no one in the family, they're like, Dad, can we please stop listening to this hard science that you listen to all the time?

And I'm like, I know, but I'm an award-winning scientist.

I'm a doctor, man.

So I got to have a pair of Raycons.

You get crisp, powerful beats at half the price of other premium audio brands.

And that's the way I talk, you know, half the price for your beats.

Let me introduce

Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed, who is starting a new movement.

Harry Go Home.

Yes.

It's out in a new children's book this week.

Hello, Pat.

How are you?

I'm good, except for Prince Harry being here.

If we could get rid of that one nuisance, I mean, things would still suck really bad right now, but

suck a little less.

Yeah, just a teeny bit of light.

We got it.

This ship is sinking.

We have to throw something overboard.

And it might as well be here.

It might as well start with Prince Harry.

How incredible is it that this guy comes here and there's a reason he came here because, you know, it's great compared to England.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

He came here for Hollywood.

Well, right.

Yes.

Yeah.

And he's got a problem with the First Amendment.

He doesn't really understand it that you can't criticize your leaders.

As in about the same breath, he criticizes his dad, who, if I'm not mistaken, is one of the supposed pretend leaders of Great Britain.

One of the supposed,

what did you say?

Supposed

fake pretend leaders.

Yeah, they pretend.

They pretend leaders.

They keep doing like

four-year-old tea parties over there or something.

I get to play the Queen of England, okay?

Sure, yeah.

Go ahead.

And how about we pay you a billion dollars a year to do that?

Wouldn't that be great?

Right, right.

Yeah.

I don't get it.

He doesn't get the First Amendment.

I don't get the British royal thing.

It's not what you fought against for 100 or 200 or 500 years.

And they finally got to the point where, you know, there was some fairness and some decent governance in England.

And now all they want to do is continue to pretend like they have a monarchy.

It doesn't make any sense to me.

Well, what are you going to do with all that land?

Because it belongs to them.

It's not state-owned land.

It's owned by the Windsors.

So, I mean,

you know, it's not like you're going to throw them out and then have them move to an apartment.

Well, that's where real estate agents I trust come in.

You just give them a call.

Right, right.

They'll help you find a great job.

Are you the queen?

Are you moving?

Call realestaterust.com.

They could do worse, I'll tell you that.

Right, right, right.

Hey, can I ask you a question?

Biden has reversed a Donald Trump executive order.

I mean, he's, I mean, I thought he had done them all, but no, no, no.

By the authority vested in me

as president, by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, including blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, section one,

revocation of presidential actions.

The following presidential actions are revoked.

Now, he has

revoked a lot of stuff, but

he's just revoked

the enacting of stricter penalties for defacing monuments.

Isn't that like an open invitation to start defacing the monuments again?

I think so.

I think so.

I mean, why would you do that?

That's what I was trying to figure out.

Sincerely, why would you do that?

You haven't come up with a reason?

I can't.

Unless.

No, I can't come up with a single reason.

Well, I mean, I can't either.

Maybe you can, Stu.

Can you come up.

Why would you relax the penalties for defacing or destroying a monument?

You want it to happen?

Yes.

That's the only explanation there is.

That's the only explanation.

It is.

only

it is.

Well, it really is.

And these are the people who are aligned with you philosophically, right?

You have these people, you know, again, you might not want every monument to be torn down, but it's the same way you might not want people to riot in the streets, but like you don't want them to be arrested or punished or have their hands slapped even when they do.

I mean, you can't have that let that happen.

I mean, it seems like it's incentivizing people to do this, and I don't see how you see it any other way.

I can't see it any other way than

you just

want more of this to happen and you don't want to have to have anybody pay a price.

The guy is dismantling us step by step, and it's moving at a lot faster pace than I thought.

One of my favorite articles comes from the Federalist this weekend.

I can never forget about Brian Stelter for as long as I'd like before his name, voice, or melodrama seep into my Twitter feed one way or another.

On Wednesday, it was because CNN hosts liked a tweet containing a gaslighty Atlantic article with self-serious quote tweet.

This is a really thoughtful argument.

He goes on to the argument.

But

what I really like is the headline, would an actual potato

be better than CNN host Brian Stelter?

I love that headline.

I saw that too.

Yes.

The answer to that is yes.

I mean, there is no doubt in my mind.

In fact, Stu, can you get somebody on the staff to edit part of

Brian Stelter's broadcast and take him out of it and just have the camera go to a potato and then back to the guest?

See if you can do that.

Because

I think it would.

I think we should try to prove that, yes, a potato would be better.

I mean, it's just for scientific purposes, you're saying.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, this is purely scientific.

Look, man, we are in the radio arts and sciences.

okay?

You're talking to a radio hall of famer.

I didn't get here just by doing the stuff that everybody just writes a headline about.

You know, they only write a headline.

I follow through on that.

That's true.

You didn't get there by doing those other things.

You got there by asking me and Pat to do them for you.

Exactly right.

Now you finally get it.

Oh, my gosh.

By the way, did you see the

commentary that's now going away?

It's time to revive the fairness doctrine and to expand it.

This is something that Obama said in, what, 2010?

And they're picking it up now.

That is

targeting.

Gee, who do you think?

Who do you think?

It's probably going to hit their own side hard.

Yeah, they're probably like people like Mr.

Potato Head,

Brian Stelter.

No, actually, he's for it.

he's for it wow i wonder and he is a potato so he has eyes all around his head so he can see everything so he'd have to see this coming if it was going to hurt him um yeah the uh fairness doctrine obviously uh

obviously just only there to uh attack talk radio And probably they'll expand it into something that people don't really follow, the internet.

So it'd probably probably be probably be that.

There is a letter that I read from Harry Truman today that I absolutely love.

He was writing to his Secretary of State, and he says, Dear Dean, well, I have the urge to

give some of these lying paid prostitutes

of the mind a little hell.

He's talking about the media when he talks about the prostitutes.

Rather than speak out publicly, you are the victim.

Old man Webster, who's purported to have written a collection of words with derivative,

deriv, say it, Pat.

Derivative?

Derivative.

Yeah.

And definitions.

I can't say it.

What was it about the Radio Hall of Fame again?

What were we just talking about?

Shut up.

Shut up.

He wrote, prostitute.

One, to submit to promiscuous lewdness for hire, to devote or base or unworthy purposes as to prostitute one's talents, prostituted, now chiefly devoted to base purposes or ends, corrupt.

The same source from Old Man Webster gives this definition of prostitution, an act or practice of prostituting as the prostitution of one's ability.

Dean, that is the end of Mr.

Webster's dissertation on the oldest profession in the world.

And as you can see, it's not confined to an occupant of a body house.

We have men in this day and age who are prostitutes of the mind.

They sell their ability to write articles for sale, which will be so worded as to mislead people who read them as news.

These articles or columns are the most astute and plausible unless the reader knows any of the facts

and they are being misled.

These men are prostitutes of the mind.

They write what they do not believe for sale.

Mr.

Webster has clearly defined them for what they are.

In my opinion, they are much worse and much more dangerous than the street-walking whore who sells her body for the relief of a man whose

penis is troubling him.

I can't believe this is Truman.

This is Truman.

Prostitutes of the mind have been a great menace to free government since freedom of speech and freedom of the press was first inaugurated.

Presidents and members of their cabinets and their staff members have been slandered and misrepresented since George Washington.

When the press is friendly to an administration, the opposition has been lied about and treated

horribly by the paid prostitutes of the mind.

Prostitute of the mind is much worse, much worse criminal, in my opinion, than a thief or a robber.

The old man Shakespeare said, Good name in man or woman, dear my lord, is the immediate jewel of their souls, who steals my purses, steals trash, tis something, nothing.

But he that filches from me my good name robs me of what of which not entices him, and makes me poor indeed.

Prostitutes of the mind are skillful purveyors of character assassination and the theft of good names of public men and private citizens too.

They are the lowest form of thief and criminal.

Wow.

That is fantastic.

You believe that was written by a Democrat?

How far the Democrat Party has come since Truman?

It all started when they stopped using the word filch.

They should be using the word filch more often.

It's a good word.

It's ruined the party.

Exactly right.

Thank you very much, Patray.

You listen to Pac Ray unleashed.

Julie writes in about a recent experience with American financing.

She says, my husband and I heard about American financing from your radio show, Mr.

Beck.

With the low mortgage rates available, we decided to look into refinancing our 30-year mortgage into a 15-year mortgage.

We worked with Scott, who was amazing.

He called and was able to get us some figures over the phone.

We were hoping to get some cash out to pay off our other debt, and we appreciated his support.

Our rate would have been lower without the cash out, but Scott supported our decision and helped us get the best rate for our situation.

He was transparent throughout the entire process, always keeping us informed of the next steps and quickly getting back to us when we had questions.

He not only worked well with us

and his whole team, Katie and Laura, but also made us feel like it was our team.

The whole process took two months.

We've been recommending American Financing everywhere.

Thank you for recommending them to us.

Julie, thank you for writing in.

All right, I want to ask you an honest question.

This is from the New York Times

and the Daily Caller reporting on the New York Times

about Joe Biden now

I have to ask you why did the New York Times write this article apparently Joe Biden

scolds his aides in profanity laced episodes and demands hours of debate from policy experts before coming to a decision on issues this is according to a report from the New York Times.

The New York Times spoke with over two dozen current and former Biden associates regarding the president's demeanor and how he conducts business.

According to the report, the interviews painted a picture of a president with a short fuse

who is obsessed with getting the details right, sometimes to a fault.

Quote, Mr.

Biden is gripped by a sense of urgency that leaves him prone to flares of impatience, according to numerous people who regularly interact with him.

The president, still quoting, has said he expects to run for a second term.

Expects that he's going to run for a second term, but aides say he understands the effect on his ability to advance his agenda if Republicans regain power in Congress next year.

End quote.

Now, why would the New York Times write a story about Joe Biden

swearing

at his aides and arguing with his his aides and saying that there's hours of debates.

I think that's because

it's trying to show that he is in charge of his faculties and he is actually doing something all day.

I think this is a smokescreen

because how could you possibly say

he's just a puppet.

He's not doing anything.

If you're reading stories about him, man, he just, he's into the minutiae.

He's in every bit.

And does anybody believe that he is actually

doing that?

Maybe, maybe he is, but do you think he's

running anything?

Do you think he's the guy who gets up in the morning and says, hey, I had this idea last night, and I want to do this.

And then he starts these debates going on?

I don't think so.

Do you, Stu?

No, I don't think he certainly don't.

I don't think of him as the brains behind any operation.

But I do think there is.

The one thing I think gets

not, I don't know, it gets understated maybe by the conservative media is this idea that he's kind of just sitting around and like, you know,

grunting all day and not doing anything.

I do think that he sees him, he wants this job.

He's wanted this job his entire life.

He does not like that people talk about him in that way.

And I think at times he, you know, stands up to his people and says, no, do this.

I'm the president of the United States, damn it.

That being said, I mean, I don't, he doesn't have a direction.

You know, he has this, he goes along with the people generally speaking around him.

So I think at times he wrestles control back for a period.

But, you know, look, at some point, the early bird dinner's over.

It's time to go to sleep for the night at 4 p.m.

And then who knows what the operations, you know, what operations go on after that.

We live in interesting times.

Thank you, Chinese fortune cookie.

Appreciate it.

Appreciate it.

All right.

Back with some good news in just a second.

Before we get into the program today, radio show comes up in just a minute.

Let me tell you about Home Title Lock.

Home Title Lock is talking about one of the fastest growing crimes in America.

We're talking about home title fraud.

And it's basically the situation where hackers can get access to your title.

They can basically make it seem like you sold your home to them.

And then they can borrow against your equity.

This is your money.

It's not money you see in an account every day, though.

So you might not notice it.

It might take a long time for it to happen.

They just hacked into one of the biggest pipelines in the United States and took control over a major source of our energy.

If they can do that, they can definitely get to your title.

Make sure you protect yourself, though, with Home Title Lock.

All you have to do is register your address and see if you're already a victim.

Then sign up for 30 risk-free days of protection.

We've got this.

So many breaches going on, we could do a different story about it every single day.

Don't let your story be the next one on the air.

Home titlelock.com.

Code is radio.

Home title lock.com.

Code is radio.

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

This

is

the Glenback program.

Well, USA Today has named the biggest threat to the republic.

I'm going to give you their conclusion in a minute.

Also,

I'm glad to say that the press has worked on the student loans and how it's directly linked to mental health.

Student loans is putting undue stress on so many students and that's why there should be student loan forgiveness because they can't handle the stress.

Oh, I've got a few things to say about that and some good news in 60 seconds.

So Janice lives in North Carolina and her job requires her to take the stairs a lot.

Seems terrible.

Good heavens.

And the ramps or some sort of an elevator?

I try try only to walk, you know, the stairs at, you know, the point of a gun.

Anyway, she'd been dealing with severe pain in her back and hips, and that's why walking up and down those stairs at work every day is a living hell for her.

For a long time, she just put up with it.

There didn't seem to be much else to do.

She tried a lot of pain remedies, but none of them ever worked.

Finally, she heard me talking on the radio about Relief Factor, and you know what happened.

She took it for a couple of weeks, and she said the pain in her back and hips was starting to fade within two weeks.

These These days, it's completely gone.

Janice got her life back, and so could you.

That's the same thing I saw in my first three weeks, and I actually denied it.

I was like, well, no, I just, I think I'm just feeling better.

You know, it's just a...

And as soon as I stopped taking it, the pain came right back.

And the longer I took it, the more the pain went away.

I want you to call for Relief Factor right now, 800-500-8384.

It works for about 70% of the people that try it.

They go on to order more.

So call them or just go to the website and order the three-week trial pack.

It's relieffactor.com.

David Barton.

The founder of Wall Builders, the author of the book, The American Story, The Beginnings, which is just the best short story read of the American founding that

you'll ever read.

It is such a great book that tells our story in short little stories that

are not focused on

the place and the bridge and the date, but actually the story and the names of the people that you've never heard of, the heroes that built this country.

It's a great book, The American Story: The Beginnings.

You should go online now and order it.

This is a must for every serious person's library.

And not that it's a serious book.

It is a serious scholarly book, but it is one you can read and anyone in the family could read and get a real handle on America quickly.

All right, he is also

the, what is your title over at the American Journey Experience and Mercury One, David?

You're the chairman of the board?

Yes, sir.

I'm the chairman of the board, but I'm also whatever we need over there.

So I

know you're also a little bit of a painter, a little bit of a carpet layer when we need it from time to time.

David Barton has been by my side for many, many years, and we have been building the American Journey Experience and also

something that

an education education series that we have been building for

the people who follow him at Wall Builders and also the people at Mercury One that want to come in and

learn.

So let's start with this week, David.

Let's start with what's happening over the American Journey Experience.

Tuesday, tomorrow, is the ribbon cutting of the actual building.

We finally, because of COVID, this was supposed to happen last fall, but we finally have it ribbon-cutting tomorrow.

And what is the American Journey Experience?

The American Journey Experience really is

documentary truth, if you want to say, about what America really is, as opposed to the 1,432,000 narratives that are out there that aren't accurate.

So it's a collection of things that you and I have put together over the years,

literally the good, the bad, the ugly of American history.

Whatever the era, whatever the period, if it's the American founding, it's the founding fathers, if it's slavery, if it's free market or socialism, if it's pandemic shutdowns, whatever it is, it's documented in American history.

And we have original documents from every one of those eras and every other era you can think of that allow people to actually see what happened as opposed to the many narratives that are being pushed.

So I was over there

Friday, and

we were talking about the pandemic, and you said, oh, we have something on that.

And

ran over to the vault and pulled something out from 1875?

Is that right?

1873.

1873, okay.

And it was from the city of Baltimore.

Explain what it was.

Baltimore was requiring everyone to get a vaccination.

At that time, it was a vaccination for smallpox, but you're required to get it.

If you don't get it, you're fined by the city.

The city paid for you to get it, but you had to have the receipt and show that you'd been vaccinated, and they went in and inspected it and make sure that you had the vaccination.

Same kind of stuff that we're hearing right now, we're hearing back then.

And by the way, also over the weekend, another interesting piece came up, and we found in that the election recount of 1,800.

The states were talking about how they needed to send state militias to the U.S.

Capitol to protect the Capitol during the recount.

I mean, there's just very few things that we deal with today that we don't have some clue to already having been done in history, but certainly the pandemic thing.

I mean, right in the middle of that debate, and there we see it going on in large blue cities even back in that day.

Right.

And it was,

but it was city.

It wasn't federal.

So the city said.

It was federal.

Right.

And the city, and I have less of a problem with that.

And the city was paying for it.

And those vaccines were really expensive.

That was a receipt from the city of Baltimore given to a black woman, right?

It was.

It was a receipt for a vaccination, Sarah Ayers, a black woman.

It was $10.

And back in 1873, that is a ton of money.

$10 was the cost of the vaccine.

That's right.

It was a fortune.

Yeah, and remember, the gold coin was $20.

So that's like, in today's inflation, that's like $2,000.

I mean, that's a crazy amount of money.

It would have been about under $1,000 in the money back then.

It would.

But it was still really high, really expensive.

And it's, you know, again, the fact the city is doing it and paying for it, and the fact that it was for black communities and white communities, there's just a lot of fun lessons from even that that incident and that one single receipt.

And of course, we have tens of thousands of historical documents like that single receipt, and they all have a story with them.

They all do some really good stuff of just helping us understand who we are and where we've been and the decisions we've made previously.

It is unlike everything else that your family encounters today, your kids encounter in school, we're not reimagining

American history.

We're proving American history with the documents, with the artifacts from the past that show us even the history we don't want to remember, the history we don't like.

It is important that we learn it so we can imagine our lives and imagine the American dream for ourselves.

We don't reimagine history.

History should make us reimagine our lives and our goals and our rights and responsibilities.

Okay, so this weekend,

we have the American Journey Experience Seminar.

It is a two-day conference designed for families and people of all ages.

We have a few slots still open, and you can register at mercury1.com.

We are still trying to figure out how the best way we can get people to come.

We did this a couple of months ago and we didn't charge anything and all of the people from Texas, I shouldn't say all, most of the people from Texas in the immediate area didn't show up.

And I think that happens when you just make things free.

People are like, ah, I was going to go, but oh well.

So we're having to charge now for it so we don't have an empty seat because this is a really important

lesson.

It's over two days.

David, his son, and I teach the class.

I mean, they teach the class.

I kind of,

I kind of, I'm there for, I guess I'm like the puppet show that happens in between for comedic relief.

But we take from the

Mayflower, actually a little before the Mayflower, to about, what, 1960, David?

Yeah, we go up through really kind of the modern era, the space age, what happened in the space age, and we moved to that time frame, and it's really kind of interesting how this came about.

And by the way, we were just talking about all the documents.

That's one of the cool things about being part of the seminar is as we talk about each of these eras, and we will cover from, as you said, from before the pilgrims, we really kind of blow up the 1619 narrative real quickly because 1619 is not when slavery came to North America.

You've got to go to 1526 when the Spanish brought slaves to North and South Carolina.

But nonetheless, there's that kind of documentation, and we go forward for really the better part of four and a half centuries.

And as we talk about this stuff, we will actually bring the originals out, and people will get to see and experience the originals.

They will get to go through the vault and get to go through the other areas where this stuff happens.

So

it's an intriguing experience because you actually get to see and experience truth.

It's not narrative.

It's truth.

You get to see what truth is built on, and that is so transformative.

And we've now done this for a few years with young people and the Summer Institute.

And so many of the parents said, wait a minute, we've seen such a change in our young people.

We want to see some of this stuff, too.

And that's really how this came about was there was a real high demand from parents.

So you can bring your family.

Probably not appropriate for little, little kids, just because it's a lot of sitting and listening.

But it's really for all ages, anybody that

can sit and listen

and you can take notes and you will learn more on the story arc of America.

That's what this is.

We tell you the high points and low points of America so you understand

where we started, where we are, and how we got there.

How did we go off track?

How do we get back on track?

What have we lost along the way?

What do we need to restore?

What are the bad things that we should be looking to jettison now in the way we are as America?

So, register now.

It is this weekend, mercury1.com.

There will also be summer dates that you will be able to sign up for if you can't make it this weekend, but really just sign up for this weekend, mercury1.com.

Find out all the information there.

Now, also, we have something where we are very, very selective on who comes because the classes are so limited.

We have the American Journey Summer Institute.

This was our leadership training seminar.

It's a two-week conference for students between 18 and 25-year-olds.

It's two weeks of non-stop projects, research, lectures, outings.

Anybody wants to learn the truth on American history, I will tell you, if your kid is going into college, this is something you should require them to do before they leave the house.

It's quite intensive, and it happens here, again, in Irving or Dallas, Texas,

at the American Journey Experience,

as well as with wall builders.

Tell us a little bit about this one, David.

Yeah, this two-week session that we do.

And by the way, Glenn, not to diminish your part in this because nobody I know in the country has a better grasp of when things turn wrong and when they first turn wrong than you do.

I mean, what you do and being able to point out what progressives did and when they did it, it is invaluable in understanding where we are today and how to get out of where we are.

So you are a key part of this as well.

And two-week session and the family, the family seminar, all of that.

So what we did in the two-week session is we really take all the narratives that we're faced with today, whether it be the narratives over is America exceptional or are we socialistic or should we be or have we been or Marxism, you name the issue that's out there, and we will take on that issue and take it back to its root base so that everyone understands.

Those who come will understand exactly how to deal with that.

And whatever a professor says, whatever a peer or colleague says, whatever a friend or enemy says, you'll know exactly how to deal with it.

And so it really is the apologetics.

it's getting your feet down into all of these areas so that you really know what truth is and you can defend truth and you can persuade others to the truth.

So, it is one of the most

grounding programs that we do, and it is literally transformative on the website.

A lot of people have

testimonials.

Go ahead.

No, no, no.

I was just going to say,

I've witnessed it myself.

And, you know,

if your child has

an open mind and is a serious individual, they need to attend this because I have seen them change in a two-week period.

It is, they understand their responsibilities.

They understand

what is happening in their world, and their eyes are open to what they've been taught.

And it's, and they know how to research and find original sources.

We've had a student teach their teacher, their history professor,

wrote on an essay that they wrote and wrote in red ink, not a score, just said, you're either a bold, audacious liar, or you know something I don't, and ended up teaching that professor weekly for the rest of the semester.

It's game-changing because they access original documents.

One more thing that is a problem, and I want to just hint at it here and David will talk about it in one minute, but we're also this year doing a teachers conference, three-day conference for teachers.

This is so wildly important because our teachers are going awry because of the unions and everything else.

If you're a teacher and you want to stand, how do I do it?

That's what the teachers conference is all about.

And David will talk about that here in just a second.

You can go to wallbuilders.com or mercuryone.com and sign up now.

All right, our sponsor, this half hour is Timeshare Termination Team.

If you have a Timeshare, gosh, I know what you're feeling.

I know the pain that you're feeling.

You bought into a timeshare.

We all make mistakes from time to time.

I mean, I almost did this myself.

It is such a nightmare to get out of.

And people will tell you, you can't get out of them.

Well, yes, you can, but you have to have the right legal team on your side.

The timeshare termination team is a dedicated team of in-house attorneys.

This is all they do.

They don't do this part-time.

This is it.

They are experts in timeshare cancellation law.

Timeshare termination team, go there now, get the process started.

Don't put it off and get stuck with another year of timeshare that you're not going to use.

You'll get 20% off when you terminate your timeshare if you tell them that I sent you.

So call them now at 888-get you out, 8 at 8-get you out, or visit them online at timeshare termination team.com.

Make sure you tell them Glenn Beck sent you.

10 seconds station ID.

From wallbuilders.com is David Barton.

And it is.com or is it.org, David?

It's wallbuilders.com and.org, and the same with MercuryOne.

It's.com or.org.

Okay, good.

So tell me about the Teachers' Conference.

Yeah, the Teachers' Conference is a lot of fun because we have so many good teachers across the country, but in a lot of ways, they handicap themselves by not knowing the right pedagogy, and I just mean the teaching method.

There is a reason that until 1920, nobody went to school past the eighth grade in America.

Once you got to eighth grade, you went to college, you got a career, but that was when school ended.

And

it was usually only a few months a year that you went to school.

It was not based on the formula we have today that if you're a certain age, you have a certain knowledge.

It's totally different.

And so what we do is we go back and show, here's how it used to work for hundreds of years.

Here's how you get the best results.

Here's some of the best teaching methods.

And by the way, here's the content.

Because the content is simply not there in most textbooks anymore.

And again, just like like everything else with American Journey, we take you into Devault.

You get to see the actual original educational documents, how we did this, what worked for centuries, why it wasn't that you can have someone like Benjamin Franklin, who's an elementary school dropout, be one of the most brilliant guys in America.

It's because of the way we taught and what we knew.

So that's what we do for teachers.

It's a very transformative event for teachers.

We give college students,

20, 24-year-old college students, the eighth-grade grade test, and most of them don't even know what it's even talking about.

And

it's not that it's

old-fashioned language.

It's just extraordinarily difficult.

Eighth grade.

Yeah, that eighth grade X exam that you had in America, you couldn't get your diploma if you couldn't pass this eighth grade X exam.

We have never had a college student pass that exam since we've given it.

That is truly remarkable.

All right, so for teachers, also for students in the summer, both of those are in the summer.

Go to wallbuilders.com and mercury1.com or.org.

You can go there now and sign up for this weekend, the American History Story Arc.

We will give you in two days all of the touch points that you need with the original documents and evidence from our vault.

It happens here at the Mercury Studios and the American Journey Experience.

This is the Glenback Program.

Hustler Turf.

Hustler Turf is one of the largest manufacturers of zero-turn lawnmowers in the world.

They offer military discount to veterans and active duty troops.

It's a third-generation American company that believes in the country, believes in supporting our troops, believes in...

I mean,

this is the country that allowed them to dream and build the very first zero-turn lawnmower.

Comes from the old

B-58 Hustler.

It was an Air Force bomber.

With Memorial Day coming up, Hustler is given back.

From today until the end of the month, Hustler Turf is donating $13 to Folds of Honor for every lawnmower sold.

If you don't know what Folds of Honor is, it's a non-profit organization that provides educational scholarships to the families of military men and and women who have fallen or been disabled while on active duty.

Hustler, find a hustler dealer near you.

I've had a concern lest the permanent structure of government become so big that it would become beyond the control of Congress and beyond the will of the people.

With his $2 trillion package, U.S.

President Joe Biden wants to give the entire country a makeover.

$1.9 trillion coronavirus and economic recovery plan.

This is another $2 trillion after $4 trillion last year.

When I first suggested the danger of government control inherent in so many federal handouts, there were people who denied vehemently that any such thing could ever take place.

Together, we passed the American Rescue Plan for making one of the largest investments ever.

The deal delivers $1,400 stimulus checks to every qualifying American.

There's $350 billion for states, $130 billion for schools, $40 billion for further education, and $50 billion billion in relief for small businesses.

Well, how did this come about?

Mainly because we have perverted our Constitution.

Perverted it with regard to a welfare clause that doesn't exist, perverted it with regard to the misuse of the taxation system, perverted it with regard to the interpretation of the clauses on interstate commerce.

And we've done it under such high-sounding phrases as vaccine shots,

dose of hope, child poverty, build back better, jobs, firmative protection for immigrants.

Forgetting that majority rule becomes mob rule.

Woo-cancel culture mob.

We've heard representatives in the higher echelons of government ask us, well, are you afraid of your own government?

And no amendment to the Constitution is absolute.

The House took steps to push toward a vote without Republican support if necessary.

Well, to tell you the truth, I am.

Well, it's time to remember that we, the people, are the government.

But we've decreased our gold holdings until concern is felt for the solvency of our currency.

And very shortly, the coins we jingle in our pocket will no longer have the ring of silver.

We're already sent more than 160 million checks out the door.

Our tax policy today is based on the idea that we're robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Well, we better take another look.

We're robbing Paul to pay Paul, and we're all named Paul.

Peter went bankrupt a long time ago.

It's going to help our kids and our businesses succeed in the 21st century economy.

Now, that has a sort of a warm and cozy sound, doesn't it?

Today, for every 10,000 of us, it only takes 12 doctors to keep us well and healthy.

It only takes 40 mechanics and oil station attendants for every 10,000 of us to keep our automobiles running.

37 telephone employees to keep the vast network of telephones running in this country.

But it takes 130 federal employees for every 10,000 to administer the affairs of state.

We want to partner with states, with local education officials, with governors.

United States Director of Education blurted out, you don't understand under the plan you propose, we couldn't achieve our social objectives.

I'm calling on Congress to pass the PRO Act and send it to my desk so we can support the right to unionize.

Social objective, social objective, to finally secure protection for dreamers.

The pay gap between CEOs and their workers, mass migration, climate change, social objective objective.

The most lethal terrorist threat to the homeland today.

White supremacy is terrorism.

And now we uncover a memorandum.

We need a ban on the small weapons of high-capacity magazines.

We should conduct a systematic effort to contact all publishers and school boards to encourage their publication and adoption of textbooks conforming to established standards.

It's an academic theory called critical race theory.

Well, if the government is going to build the schools and buy the books, issue scholarships, make judgments, and exert pressure, what if one day that pressure is of a political nature not to our our liking?

And it advocates, in short, for the overthrow of the system of capitalism, meritocracy, equal protection under the law, and even the Constitution itself.

We have been Republicans complete with descriptive adjectives and hyphens before the word Republican.

Moderate Republicans, liberal Republicans, conservative Republicans, whatever label we chose.

The truth is we've been sucker Republicans.

People have been gaslit into believing it's simply racial sensitivity training when nothing could be further from the truth.

They're radical, right?

Those adjectives and those hyphens were given to us by our opponents and the time has come to bundle them up and give them back.

We can cringe in the shadow of a philosophy we detest but fear to challenge or we can rise from a defeat and begin the second round of our struggle to restore the republic.

If you're unwilling to meet this challenge, then you'd better start preparing.

Deciding what you'll tell your children it was that you found more important than freedom.

They'll want to know.

They'll want to know.

They'll want to know.

They'll want to know.

This is the Glenbeck program.

We thought we would share that speech from Ronald Reagan.

How far we have fallen off of the path.

Looks like we have some possibly good news from the Supreme Court.

A couple of their decisions have been released.

Can you give me an update on these, Stu?

Yeah, one of them is

interesting.

Basically,

there's this idea that police can do sort of community

caretaking functions is what they call them, which, you know, like would be maybe like an accident or

a car on the side of the road and go check it out.

Right.

Right.

That's something the police do, obviously, all the time.

The question in front of the court was, like, does that also include unwarranted seizures and searches of homes?

Well, so here's the actual, here was the actual argument, I believe, of the case was a police officer, if he looks into, he's walking down the street and he looks into the home and he sees a gun laying on the table and he thinks that might not be a legally acquired gun.

Can he go in without a warrant and take that gun or look at that gun, demand to look at that gun?

Can he do that?

The answer should be

no.

That's essentially what

the ruling was.

No.

No.

It was written by Clarence Thomas, of course, so

it was somewhat blunt.

No, nine to nothing.

You cannot

do not include that.

No.

Thank goodness.

That's a good thing, for sure.

There's some other stuff.

Nothing particularly

riveting other than Justice Kavanaugh wrote one, which was kind of fighting with

Kagan on a couple of different rulings.

They seem to have a little bit of a rivalry brewing, which is kind of fun.

But other than that, not that much.

The other big one, though, is that they're going to take on an

abortion case.

This is big news.

And

the idea being, I think it's Mississippi's law, they try to pass at 15 weeks

whether abortion can be banned after 15 weeks.

It's the can the baby live outside of the womb.

can live, yeah, if the baby is viable, then

we should have to keep it alive.

Okay.

If it's dependent upon the mother, then no, but you can't abort a baby that can be viable outside of the womb.

I don't know why this is so controversial.

It used to be, what was it, 21 weeks?

I mean,

I've always said as technology gets better and better,

we come closer and closer to, you know, conception.

It's going the other way because we keep getting better and better at keeping the kids alive or seeing the kids and realizing that they are children inside the womb.

Once, you know, it was back in colonial days what they called the quickening.

If you felt the baby move,

then you couldn't kill it.

But up until that point, it wasn't a baby.

Because how would you know?

It could have been just a growth, a tumor.

Many times it's an antelope.

That is one of the more common.

Yeah, it's usually an antelope.

My aunt had a Buick.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

56 Buick.

She was a big woman.

Oh, yeah.

She was a big woman.

Yeah.

But

you never know what's in there.

You never know.

You never know.

It's interesting on this because, you know, we obviously as conservatives and people who are pro-life

always look at the Roe versus Wade decision as this very negative negative thing, which of course it is.

However, I will say, at this point, the Roe versus Wade decision is like a massive move towards conservatism for where we are.

And that's basically what Roe versus Wade talked about: you know,

states can ban it after

viability.

And, you know, really, the second and third trimester, there can be all sorts of rules that the government can pass to

suspend this

terrible thing that we do when it comes to abortion.

So we've moved way past that now.

We're now obviously one of the two parties says abortion for any reason up to one second before death or birth, excuse me.

So I mean, we're at that point where returning to Roe versus Wade would be a conservative joy.

The HHS secretary testified last week there's no law preventing partial birth abortions.

Yes, there was.

There is.

But the HHS secretary said, no, there's not.

No, there's not.

So how can I enforce a law that doesn't exist?

And the senators were like,

but it does exist.

Not really.

Not really.

Oh, are we reimagining this law too?

That's fantastic.

When we come back, I want to talk to you about the CDC and the mask thing.

Boy, I was on the airlines.

The airlines are like Nazis on the mask thing.

We'll talk about the change, the change of heart at the CDC.

What happened?

45 days ago, they were like, absolutely not.

I am sensing doom.

That's a quote.

I am sensing doom right around the corner.

To now, yep, take the mask off.

No big deal.

Oh,

okay.

Well, what changed?

And I have some

confusing and conflicting evidence.

What they say changed,

not so much.

We'll give that to you here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Omaha steaks.

When you have to make that dinner decision on the fly, there is nothing better than opening up a freezer full of high-quality, delicious food from Omaha Steaks.

I don't know about you, but we've been redoing our house.

I think we get our house back this next weekend, or most of it.

We get our kitchen back.

We can actually cook in our kitchen again.

Oh my gosh.

We wouldn't have been able to live without,

you know, my daughter living next door who has a kitchen

or, you know, dinner's on the go.

And I know a lot of people who are like that and they're like, I don't have time to even think about it.

This is where Omaha steaks come in.

Because you can grill them on the

outside, but it's not just about the steaks.

They have everything that goes with it.

So, I mean, when you're thinking, we just need something quick, wouldn't it be better to have a really delicious meal and an Omaha steak or some chicken and you're having a chicken dinner with all the fixins and it's easy and you don't have to think about it?

Great savings right now.

If you get their mouthwatering, let's go grill package.

You'll get it now with a tasty bonus of 12 ultra juicy Omaha steak burgers for free.

They are really good.

That's almost four pounds of free burgers.

To top it off, you'll also get $20 off on your first order.

Let's go grill package.

It includes four butcher cut fillets.

It has four boneless pork chops, a pound of chicken breasts, four kielbasa sausages, and so much more.

So go to omahasteaks.com.

Use the promo code Beck in the search bar.

You'll find the special and for a limited time, get 12 free Omaha steaks and burgers, as well as $20 off at checkout on your first order.

You kidding me?

12 free Omaha steaks and burgers.

I'm just reading that to make sure that's not a typo.

It's not.

It's at omahasteaks.com, keyword back, omahasteaks.com.

You are listening to the Glen Beck program.

This is the Glen Beck program.

So the CDC, the chief now, has said

we don't have to wear masks if you've been vaccinated.

Okay.

Now, 45 days ago, 45 days ago, on March 29th, she warned the nation of dire days ahead.

Quote, I'm going to lose the script.

I'm just going to reflect on the recurring feeling that I have of impending doom.

Right now, I'm scared.

I know what it's like as a physician to stand in that patient room gowned, glove, mask, shielded, and to be the last person to touch someone else's else's loved ones because their loved ones couldn't be there.

Now, that was on March 29th.

We continue to recommend masking in crowded outdoor settings and venues such as packed stadiums and concerts where there's decreased ability to maintain physical distance, where many unvaccinated people may also be present.

Now, that she said on April 27th.

Okay, so what is she saying today, April 27th?

we have to, you know, we have to have outdoor precautions and we have to wear our masks, et cetera, et cetera.

She says she's following the science.

Okay,

well, let me give the science here to Stu, who I know follows all this, and tell me what I'm missing.

Excess mortality.

What excess mortality, correct me if I'm wrong, excess mortality is we have a certain number of deaths every year.

It's a, you know, it's a, it should be kind of like a flat line unless something big happens

and we have a really bad flu season.

We don't count the regular flu season.

We expect to lose those people.

It's everything over what we normally would have.

Correct?

Okay.

So we had a lot of excess deaths

in the last year.

Yes.

However, the excess deaths, the week of January 3rd, began to collapse.

By February, it was back to summer 2020 levels, which was pretty good, but you could still have maybe a rebound.

By March 14th, excess mortality was at 1%

above the 2015-2019 average.

This occurred even as very few Americans were vaccinated.

When excess

deaths began to drop, less than 1% of Americans were fully vaccinated.

At the end of January, less than 2%.

By the end of March, when excess mortality returned to 2019 pre-pandemic levels, only 15% of the population had been vaccinated.

As of May 11th, only one-third of Americans have been fully vaccinated.

Even though they've been saying 60, 70% of the population has to be vaccinated.

What happens, Du?

Well, let me give you the entire answer here in the next 18 seconds before we go to commercial

no we can do it after the top of the hour but do you have an yeah you know what changed what yeah you know what changed yeah sure we can go into that I mean okay good

but we'll do that 14 seconds yeah we'll do that next hour and UFOs

holy cow did you see 60 minutes last night

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Right now, if you're entering the real estate market, you got a lot of questions.

I could sell sell my house

if you're in a seller's market like we are in Texas.

I could sell my house, but then what is it going to take to replace my house?

Where am I going to move?

You need a great real estate agent that if you're selling your house in a seller's market, that you're going to be able to find something else, and they can handle both of those transactions.

If you are living in a place where it's not a buyer's market or a seller's market, then you're going to have a hard time getting the full price that you need out of that house.

In both scenarios, RealEstateAgentsitrust.com can help you with the right real estate agent.

If you're moving across town or across country, they can handle both sides of it.

We'll find the right real estate agent where you're moving to and where you're moving from.

It's a free service to you.

Just go to realestate agentsitrust.com.

That's realestate agentsitrust.com.

This

is

the Glenbeck program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Hey, China has landed a spacecraft on Mars.

Uh-huh.

And if they did, it looks suspiciously like exactly the same design as the American ship

that went to Mars.

Wow.

You designed it yourself, right, China?

I mean, you wouldn't have stolen anything from us.

I don't even think they made it to Mars, and I'll tell you why.

Also, do Martians exist?

Are we living with extraterrestrials?

that are monitoring us all the time?

Last night on 60 Minutes, the answer was maybe,

maybe somebody is.

We'll give you that in case you missed it in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck program.

You know, I spend a lot of time every day thinking about my health and fitness level.

I mean, look at me.

You do not get a body like this without working hard.

So you combine all the hours I spend having to hear things like, put that snack down.

I thought you were trying to to lose weight, what's with the pizza?

You know, I go through hell every day.

And when you combine that with all the time I spend about thinking about exercise, I'm practically spending my whole day on health thinking.

You know what I mean?

One thing that I

think about and actually act on is Bilt Bar.

That's because the people who make them understand that flavor has to come first.

This is the greatest philosophy ever.

These are health-minded people and they said, okay, we're going to start a company, but we're going to go for taste.

If it doesn't taste good, we don't make it.

And I don't mean like taste close.

I mean taste good.

That's why they use 100% real chocolate.

These things taste like real candy bars, but they're not.

They're protein bars and they're really healthy for you.

I mean, unless you eat them in large, large quantities, but I can't imagine anybody doing that.

Built bars are made with 100% real chocolate.

They're low calorie, low carb.

They're also high in fiber and protein.

In other words, good for you and delicious.

They've got great flavors that you have to try.

The mint brownie?

Yes, it will blow your mind.

It will.

I mean, you will find a flavor that you love.

All right, you then.

Let's continue our conversation with Mr.

Stubragir

because I'd like to know what changed

for the CDC to flip because they say we're just following the science, just following the science.

Yeah.

And I mean, I think they were, at least at the beginning, when we were like, okay, we don't know an awful lot about this.

So what do we do?

And things change.

Like, so I don't give them,

you know, when they were changing early on and saying, you know, this could be very deadly.

Well, yeah, it could have been.

And it was deadly, but it wasn't what we thought it could be, thank God.

And I don't think they understand the science of masks or,

you know, social distancing.

Yeah, I just read a story today.

The increase of New Yorkers in Florida was really heavy.

Here come all

these New Yorkers going to Florida and moving to Florida.

Well, why didn't they bring that?

Why was Florida's rate so low with so many old people

compared to New York that was fully shut down forever?

What happened?

What is the science here?

Well, one little part of this, and I know this is not your larger point, but Ron DeSantis decided to try to keep old people alive as opposed to Andrew Cuomo, who went the opposite way and thought, what if we kill off as many as possible by importing COVID patients into their nursing homes?

And that was a questionable tactic.

It was a

step though, so who knows?

Let me tell you, Mr.

Steve Bregier, okay?

I know your real name.

I know where you live.

You know what I'm saying?

So America's Dumbest Mobster was part of

the New York numbers.

This did happen.

But so, you know, and I think DeSantis did a very good job.

I mean, the numbers in Florida are around the middle when it comes to,

you know, effects from the virus.

It was he put less restrictions on overall.

You know, part of this, I think, is outdoors to indoors.

You know, there was a flare-up in the South.

when people decided, holy crap, it's hot outside.

I don't care about this virus.

I'm going inside to the air conditioning.

And the opposite seems to have happened in the north when it's so cold they don't want to go outside.

We've seen flare-ups there.

When it's nice, it's spring and summer.

They had lower

levels of virus.

That's just part of it.

I mean, you can't just simplify this to one thing.

There's a million different factors.

But

I was just in Florida this weekend.

I didn't see anybody wearing masks in Florida.

It's wide open,

you know, but then you go to the airline and it's like, you will wear mask Yeah, and you're like, okay, okay, okay, I'm wearing a mask.

You don't know that you have not applied it right Put it over the nose.

Make sure it stays over the nose.

You're like, okay, okay, okay, I got it.

I thought it was over the nose.

I mean, it's and that it was a stark difference.

It's interesting, too, between Florida and the airport.

And Texas, with the two places you were flying in between are largely, you know, completely open at this point.

And now, it's interesting because

the guidance on airlines really did change with Biden.

And this is something that he can kind of control more directly.

And when

they always had masks on when Trump was there as well.

Yeah.

Though they, did you hear the like 14 announcements they had to make about masks during the flying?

Not only the 14 announcements, but the 56 announcements that

if you violate these rules, you may never be able to fly with us again.

Yep, there's threats attached to it.

That's true.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And that's all new.

Most of that is, at least, is new from the Biden administration where he put this on.

And I will say, like, you know, the CDC did open up.

Everyone talked about this is how they opened up all of these things for people who were vaccinated to go do whatever they need to do.

The science didn't change between the period two weeks beforehand when they said something else, but also they didn't open it up to things like airplanes where, again, there's no evidence that a vaccinated person needs to wear a mask on an airplane.

In fact, the airplanes with their circulation systems are actually pretty good places and you're unlikely to get the virus on an airplane.

But they kept those on, mass transit, a bunch of other different things that are probably completely unnecessary, but will continue to be.

They're all controlled by the government.

Yeah.

When they can control it in a central way, they're going to keep it on for longer than any of us are comfortable with.

Correct.

And that's another reason why you don't have government running everything.

Let me switch gears here, Stu, on

what happened on 60 Minutes last night.

Did you happen to catch any of that?

I did.

I watched the whole UFO segment, if that's what you're talking about.

What did you think?

It's pretty amazing.

We've talked about this for a while.

This would be the biggest story in the world, I feel like any other time we were doing the show.

And they can't.

Any other time in the history of the world?

There was was a moment they were stopping the biggest story.

To the guy, one of the guys who was running this sort of program related to UFOs.

And they asked him, they said, you know, what do you think about these

UFOs?

Are you saying that these are possible?

He goes, it's not me saying it.

He's like, we're well beyond that.

The U.S.

government is telling you that it's happening.

I'm not saying, it's not me saying it anymore.

It's the government telling you.

The question is, what are these things?

Okay, so cut one, pilot on UFO.

It aware.

Listen up.

It was November 2004, and the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group was training about 100 miles southwest of San Diego.

For a week, the advanced new radar on a nearby ship, the USS Princeton, had detected what operators called multiple anomalous aerial vehicles over the horizon, descending 80,000 feet in less than a second.

On November 14th, Fraver and Dietrich, each with a weapons system officer in the back seat, were diverted to investigate.

They found an area of roiling whitewater, the size of a 737, in an otherwise calm blue sea.

So as we're looking at this, her backseater says, hey, skipper, do you?

And about that, got out.

I said, dude, do you see that thing down there?

And we saw this little white, tic-tac-looking object.

And it's just kind of moving above the whitewater area.

As Dietrich circled above, Fraver went in for a closer look.

Sort of spiraling down.

The tic-tac still point north-south, it goes

and just turns abruptly and starts mirroring me.

So, as I'm coming down, it starts coming up.

So, it's mimicking your moves.

Yeah, it was aware we were there.

He said it was about the size of his F-18 with no markings, no wings, no exhaust plumes.

I want to see how close I can get.

So, I go like this, and it's climbing still.

And when it gets right in front of me, it just disappears.

Disappears.

Disappears.

Like gone.

It had sped off.

What are you thinking?

So your mind tries to make sense of it.

I'm going to categorize this as maybe a helicopter or maybe a drone.

And when it disappeared, I mean, it was just...

Did your backseaters see this too?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

There was four of us in the airplanes, literally watching this thing for roughly about five minutes.

Seconds later, the Princeton reacquired the target, 60 60 miles away.

Another crew managed to briefly lock onto it with a targeting camera before it zipped off again.

You know, I think that over beers, we've sort of said, hey man, if I saw this solo, I don't know that I would have come back and said anything because it sounds so crazy when I say it.

You understand that reaction?

I do.

I've had some people tell me, you know, when you say that, you can sound crazy.

And I'll be honest, I'm not a UFO guy.

But from what I hear you guys saying,

there's something.

Yes.

Oh, there's definitely something that I don't know who's building it, who's got the technology, who's got the brains, but

there's something out there that was

better than our airplane.

So you know, when they tracked it 60 miles away, they believe it can pull 6,000 Gs.

So you understand that.

10 Gs Gs is what the space shuttle launch

pilot has to take.

10 Gs is right in the area between 9 and 11 you pass out as a human.

What can withstand, what metal, what

device, what anything could stand 60,000 Gs?

Nothing we know of.

Now they're saying this could be Russian or Chinese, but

I don't think so.

Here, play

pilot on UFO could be Russian-Chinese tech.

What do you think when you see something like this?

This is a difficult one to explain.

You have rotation, you have high altitudes, you have propulsion, right?

I don't know.

I don't know what it is, frankly.

He told us pilots speculate they are one of three things.

Secret U.S.

technology, an adversary spy vehicle, or something otherworldly.

I would say, you know, the highest probability is it's a threat observation program.

Could it be Russian or Chinese technology?

I don't see why not.

Are you alarmed?

I am worried, frankly.

You know, if these were tactical jets from another country that were hanging out up there, it would be a massive issue.

But because it looks slightly different, we're not willing to actually look at the problem in the face.

We're happy to just ignore the fact that these are out there watching us every day.

That's not entirely true.

If you want to go back, you want to really go in depth on this.

I did a show with the guy that has partnered, who was with the Pentagon.

Actually, Petraeus was the one who selected him because he was not a UFO guy.

And he did the initial investigations for the Pentagon that you're now seeing released.

He's now in a public-private partnership with the United States government and the military.

And he explains what they found and

the danger that it is posing.

Last night on 60 Minutes, they only talked about one place.

It's up, is it over, it wasn't Norfolk, Virginia.

I can't remember.

It's one of the bases right around Washington, D.C.

I thought it was

near Annapolis in Maryland, but there is this restricted airspace, and they are in it every day.

They are monitoring them.

We're monitoring them, and they seem to be monitoring us

every single day.

They said they've tracked them every day for the last two years.

Somebody is monitoring, as you will hear on my Friday podcast.

I don't remember what episode it was.

Can you see if you can alert

the

Blaze and see if they can mark this podcast so people know exactly which podcast it is?

But we did a podcast about a year ago now, and

it will chill you to the bone because something

is monitoring all of our nuclear bases, and

I...

I haven't heard if they're doing them to anyone else.

I know they're doing them to our allies.

I don't know if they're doing it to our enemies.

Is it foreign technology?

The answer to that was answered on my Friday exclusive, the UFO show that we did.

It would be this technology is so far advanced that no

country on earth, they believe, could even be close to this technology without it changing everything that they do because it's completely different technology than anything we've ever seen.

I think it's, it may be episode number 43, Blaze TV,

Glenn Beck Friday exclusive, episode 43, strange things, new evidence may indicate UFOs a possible national security threat.

That was on a Friday show about a year ago.

You can find that.

It is worth the price of subscription at the Blaze just for this one episode.

It's amazing.

And you can find it at blazetv.com/slash Glenn.

If you use the promo code Glenn, you'll get a discount on your year's subscription.

We need you to stand by our side, but we also want to give you information that you can't get anyplace else.

Amazing on blazetv.com/slash Glenn promo code Glenn.

All right.

Uh, what on May 4th, I told you about a great book called The Crisis Preparedness Handbook.

Hopefully you were listening.

If not, that's okay because Goldline was listening.

And they want you as a consumer and a listener to always be as informed as possible.

10 seconds, station ID.

So, Stu, did you see that China lands its rover on Mars over the weekend?

Yeah.

Good for them.

Did you

see things can happen to that government, let me tell you.

Right, I know, I know.

And the good news is, a million Uyghurs were on board.

In free transportation.

That wasn't it.

And they say they're logging.

Oh, these camps.

They sound, first of all, camp always seems like fun.

And now free transportation.

I mean, lots of people.

Free transportation.

This was training on how to live on Mars.

What?

Right.

Anyway, so it supposedly landed its rover on Mars, but the BBC on, what, Friday or Saturday had an article with the actual television landing.

You know, it had the Chinese news,

you know, official news site, Chiron, and all of the the markings on it.

And it was what they were playing as it landed on Mars, and everybody was celebrating it landed on Mars.

Well, I saw it, and there is no way that was anything but bad Godzilla animation.

I mean, it was really bad, really bad.

Oh, it looked so hokey.

No dust was coming up as it, you know, was close to the surface.

The engines just shut off and it still kind of floated to the ground.

I i mean it was it was so hokey and you would also have to ask how'd you get the camera there and how did the camera land set itself up and then track the to give us a perfect picture of the landing you know we only see from down on the lander you know we see the the feet and you see the dust and everything and it lands we don't have a perfect picture of it landing from a distance because there's no cameras on Mars.

Maybe they dropped out some Uyghurs first.

Yeah.

I was going to play that video today because I thought it was really hysterical and asked some obvious questions, but that video now has been scrubbed and now they're only showing animation of what it might have looked like, but it's not the same footage.

It's not the same footage.

It's better footage than what they were playing on TV.

And I can't find that

Chinese television

moment where they looked to the stars and saw China on Mars.

This is the Glenbach program.

If you could help find it, I'd appreciate it.

Okay, let me see here.

Let me tell you about RekTech.

They're our sponsor this half hour.

If you've never cooked on a RekTech, you haven't cooked outside.

I've had mine for well over a year now, and I can tell you, I love it as much now as I did when I first got it.

It is really, really super sturdy, made from solid stainless steel.

It was built by grillers who go out and do those contests, and they were like, there's got to be a better grill.

There's got to be it.

So they designed one.

And then everybody's, where did you get that grill?

And they realized, we've got something here.

We should sell it to people.

It is really great.

It's sturdy.

You can smoke, you can grill, you can bake everything to protection.

It has its own internal temperature, raising and lowering the heat during the cooking.

So

it is exactly the temperature you need.

It is really

amazing what the mask has become for so people,

so many people.

Rachel Maddow was on MSNBC.

I think I was sitting in the airport on Friday night.

By the way, I have to tell you,

I flew out to Florida with Governor Noam on Friday and was with

Alan West and

Ted Nugent right before that.

Fun group.

It was a fun group.

Learned a lot.

Anyway,

I'm watching, I'm sitting in the airport and I'm waiting for the plane and I'm watching the news and I see Rachel Maddow say that she just has to rewire her view of the maskless.

Yeah.

And she said, when I was talking to people today about the new guidance and what to ask Walensky, everybody had very personal feelings about it.

And I realized I did too.

Part of it is that I feel like I'm going to have to rewire myself.

So when I see someone out in the world who's not wearing a mask, I don't instantly think, you're a threat.

You're selfish.

You're a COVID denier.

And you definitely haven't been vaccinated.

I mean, I guess we're going to have to rewire the way that we look at each other.

We have to unwire our preconceptions about what a mask or lack of a mask means.

Amazing.

That is really

amazing.

The DCist published an anonymous overheard in D.C.

post, which featured an individual concealing the face mask is unnecessary, but added, I really don't want people to think I'm a Republican.

So they're wearing the face mask.

Well, it does kind of give you evidence that this was never about quote unquote the science.

It is.

It is.

I did a show on this last week.

We went over this as well, this Madow clip, because it's just representative.

And you give Madow credit in some way of actually admitting this is how they felt the whole time, because this is certainly the way they acted the whole time.

But it's interesting to hear them actually admit how they saw saw their fellow citizens as a threat and a denier every time they walked by.

And that is really, I mean, that's that that is

you know gold star kind of stuff, you know, have that gold star on you so we know you're a Jew.

I mean, it

wired people enough to where they're now having to rewire so they don't, I mean, I bet Germans had to do that.

You know, oh, you're a Jewish person and I didn't see the star, so I don't.

I mean, it's weird.

It's weird that people would just assume you're a danger.

You haven't been vaccinated.

You're a Republican.

You're a threat.

Yeah,

treating everyone with respect is a good guideline.

And it's funny that the left has now found that instinct because now they're saying, look, look, if you see someone who's still wearing a mask, we still need to be, we need to be understanding.

And we need to understand

that they might have different choices and that their personal risk assessment may be different than yours.

It's like,

are you just quoting Republicans and right-wing talk shows over the past year?

Like,

I get that there's some differences here.

I'm not saying that there's no differences, but

when people are wearing a mask now, especially now in Texas, I think one of two things.

They are just being cautious or polite, or they have something extra going on that they have to make sure they're not getting the virus.

I don't think bad things about people when they're wearing a mask.

I think bad things about the people who are telling everyone to wear a mask in the restaurant when I walk the 10 feet to the table and then I can sit down and not wear the mask.

I think bad things about those people.

What are you, a moron?

You definitely, though, have.

It is real and not just the left that when you see someone in certain circumstances, you make judgments.

Like, for example, if I see someone driving in a car by themselves, wearing a mask, I always think

of what are you doing?

And of course,

you're walking outside by yourself.

Right.

You're walking in the, you know, on the on the sidewalk in the middle of nowhere by yourself.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Anytime I see anyone outdoors with a mask on, it always crosses my mind.

Oh, God, this has got to be some crazy liberal who's virtue signaling to everyone.

There's no science.

I think moron.

Yeah, which is probably the same thing.

Kind of a summary.

You were talking about last hour or a little bit, Glenn, about how things have kind of changed for the better over the past few months and what's the cause of it.

As deaths have kind of cratered, and some people are saying, well, there

weren't really enough vaccinations to make the difference there.

What's actually happening?

Am I summarizing that well enough?

Yeah,

what's happening, you know, the CDC, the numbers started to crater at the end of January.

I mean, really crater.

And by May, or sorry, by March 14th, we were at pre-pandemic levels of what is called excess deaths.

We were back to where we always are.

And

what happened in the last 45 days to change their minds that, oh, now it's safe?

Right.

Well, so I think we're probably not quite back to the normal levels of excess mortality.

Some of those numbers are delayed, so they don't wind up catching up until later.

But still, we're much lower.

We're at, I would say, at least the lowest levels since the pandemic started at this point.

So the numbers did start coming down from their peak in late January.

And, you know, there were a lot of people getting vaccinated, but it was still ramping up quite a bit.

The one thing that's interesting when you look at that, when you look at deaths and excess mortality, is while there weren't, a lot of people were talking about, I think in the article, they said something like, oh, only like, you know, 18% of people were vaccinated at that point.

Well, there's a lot of, there's a lot of, there's a lot in the side of those numbers.

18% fully vaccinated of the population was correct for that time period.

However, we know that one shot, just one shot of the two Pfizer Modernas gives you about 80% protection.

So it's not as good as two shots, but it's really good.

I mean, better than they would have expected out of two shots when this thing all started, right?

Like, that's how well that the vaccines are performing there.

In addition, the people who were vaccinated were almost all old people at that point.

Remember, they had, they had, you couldn't even get the vaccine if you weren't, if you were 25 or 35 or 45.

It was all 65 plus at that point.

Right, but I mean, but doesn't that prove the point of that we've been saying the whole time?

Protect the people that need protection.

You know, let's serve the old people.

Let's have this crazy, all these crazy rules.

I can't even say laws, all these crazy rules that everybody enacted that put everyone into a plastic bubble.

It wasn't necessary.

Now, it was maybe the first month.

We didn't know what we were dealing with.

Maybe I'll give you until June.

We didn't really know what we were dealing with.

But after that, we're seeing, okay, all right, it's mainly hitting old people.

We can isolate people who have, you know, other conditions.

Let's concentrate on that.

Let's get the vaccine to them first.

So if it's mainly old people, the numbers are coming down because mainly the old people were the ones dying.

Yeah, we were at over 60% vaccination on people 65 plus by mid-March.

So the deaths of the people.

So that would make sense.

Yeah, cratered.

I think that would make sense.

Now, there's some, look, when you don't have a vaccine, right, it's a lot harder to do that.

You can't, you know, saying, like, okay, well, we're going to protect people that are older is hard at times.

It's not easy to do.

I mean, look, there are steps you can take, like not being Andro Cuomo, that help quite a bit.

Like, just don't intentionally try to kill the people you're probably going to do.

But they're better.

There haven't been, I mean,

name the top three states

that have been just on total lockdown.

As far as California-wise, yeah, California, New Mexico, New York, you also talk about Connecticut, New Jersey, Michigan's been high up there, Illinois's been up there.

Now,

how many of those states

have

a bigger problem with deaths than Texas and Florida?

Most, if not all.

I mean, California's per capita data is not terrible.

It's more middle of the pack.

All the other states are pretty bad, though.

Okay, so I'm not making a judgment on anything.

I'm really asking an honest question that I have not heard a satisfactory answer on.

Why?

Why were those states that were so locked down, why did they perform, generally speaking, worse

than the states that everybody mocked and said they're all gonna die?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Part of it is chicken and the egg, egg, right?

You don't lock down that hard until you have a problem, which is, you know, so the states that locked down hardest were the ones that had the worst problems.

I mean, California did it relatively early.

I think they were the first state to actually lock down.

They were.

And really the only defense around the world that has actually worked on COVID was catching things super early, right?

That was like, you know, South Korea and, you know, some of these Asian countries that are used to these breakouts all the time were able to kind of handle it better than others, even though they did it in ways that were extra-constitutional for us.

But they were so early that they caught it before it really hit those levels in their communities.

Once it's, I mean, like, the only thing that you can argue for these larger outbreaks, and you kind of pointed it out, was very early in that

you can argue that things like lockdowns make,

again, I don't agree with it, but some sense when you don't have testing, right?

When you have no ability to track who has the virus, that's

the argument.

Yeah, that's what you just kind of mentioned.

We didn't know what this was.

If there's an outbreak again and we go into full lockdown like we did before, we're morons.

We know what we're dealing with now, and we have a vaccine.

You can't continue to be locked downs.

But before you know what it is, I mean, all of us were like, wow, this, I mean, this could kill millions of people.

We didn't know.

Yeah, and it's

killed hundreds of thousands.

I mean, it's been bad.

I think, though, when you look at

the improvement, you can see it really well in the age data, where if you break down from the peak of hospitalizations in January and you look at it by age group, the biggest drop in hospitalizations percentage-wise are people 85 plus.

The second biggest is 75 to 85.

The third biggest is 65 to 75 and on and on with every single age group lining up exactly this way.

The more vaccinations you have in the population, the bigger the drop from the peak of hospitalizations.

And it is really compelling data that these things are working.

Now they're much more needed.

for people who are 75 and 85 years old.

We're saving deaths there as opposed to cases among younger people.

So it's obviously less of a priority to get younger people vaccinated.

Just the only hope there is to get people to the idea that we might get to a real herd immunity where this sort of goes away.

Like, you know, measles have sort of gone away or polio has gone away, quote unquote.

It still exists, but it's not really a factor at all for society.

Right now, though, we're already at the level where this is, we're at the lowest, I think the lowest case level.

Really at the lowest case level since this all started because you can go back and find lower case numbers in March and maybe April, but like that was before we really had testing.

This is the best it's been since this thing has started.

Our deaths are way down to the lowest level with the exception of

I think it was early June when the first wave had sort of abated and before the southern wave.

There's an argument, too, about

when you were mentioning the states.

A lot of those states are northern states.

And

the weather is a factor, whether it's

you know, the season factor, whether it's the indoor-outdoor factor, where, like, we had our big flare up here in Texas when it was 108 degrees outside every day and no one wanted to go outside.

The North has seen it twice in cold times where they, you know, they wanted to stay indoors.

They didn't see it in the summer when they, for them, it was nice to go outdoors.

Right.

So that's the part of it.

I want to ask you one more question.

We have to take a quick break, and I want to ask you one more question about Fauci and the masks.

Sure.

I can't stand the fact that everybody is, I think, arguing the wrong thing on the masks and how he changed his mind.

And let me explain when we come back in just a second.

Imagine that you're one of the millions of Americans just trying to get back into the job market by searching job postings and applying for them.

Now imagine that some cyber criminal is targeting people just like you by posting fake jobs designed to trick you into revealing your personal information and your social security number.

Well, guess what?

This is happening now,

and you can protect yourself against it.

It's important to understand all of the different ways that people are out there trying to scam you and get your information.

LifeLock helps detect a wide range of identity threats.

I mean, they can't find all of them, but nobody can.

If they detect your information has been compromised, they'll send you an alert.

One more thing about the pandemic.

The pandemic is

over.

I mean, people in large cities, they don't really understand, at least the media and the politicians don't understand, it's over.

It's over almost everywhere.

And, you know, they're still going on the masks and everything else.

You know,

the thing that bothers me about Fauci, besides the lies,

that he admits to, so he has no credibility, is the fact that when he was arguing masks at the beginning, he was talking about N95 masks.

They specifically talked about N95 masks.

And they wanted those masks and all the masks for the surgeons and for the nurses and everybody else.

Well,

they told us that those didn't work.

And now they say that they do work.

And he lied about the reason.

Is there a difference between the N95 mask and the stupid cloth mask and the, you know, the masks that everybody is wearing?

Of course there is.

Stu?

Yeah, oh, yeah.

There's definitely a huge difference between N95 and then in between those are just the normal surgical masks, which show that they can do something.

Though again,

even for a surgical mask, the benefit is really limited.

And cloth masks, it's hard to find studies that show really any benefit at all from them.

And yet, those are all the ones we see our, you know, Nancy Pelosi and all these people wearing are the cloth masks.
