loves a challenge.
It's why she lifts heavy weights
and likes complicated recipes.
But for booking her trip to Paris, Olivia chose the easy way with Expedia.
She bundled her flight with a hotel to save more.
Of course, she still climbed all 674 steps to the top of the Eiffel Tower.
You were made to take the easy route.
We were made to easily package your trip.
Expedia, made to travel.
Flight-inclusive packages are at all protected.
I want to tell you a little bit about RekTech.
Last night, we put steaks on the RekTech.
They were so delicious.
So, so very good.
And it's so easy on the RekTech.
You don't have to worry about burning them.
You don't have to worry about anything because it takes care of all of it.
It has smart technology and it's a better griller.
than I am.
This was a grill built by grillers.
So it's people who go to those contests and, you know, try to have the best smoked meat.
That's who built this.
And it is built like a tank and it is really simple to use.
It is competitively priced.
You go in and look at the best grill on the market now at Home Depot or wherever you buy your grills, and then AB Compare.
Go to rectech.com, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com and A-B Compare.
No comparison at all, not even close.
RekTech, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.
Go there now.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenbach program.
Build back better.
That is the slogan everybody thinks of the Biden campaign, but it wasn't.
It is the slogan of the Great Reset.
That's why it's used by politicians all over the world.
Build back better.
The Great Reset.
Well,
we're not going to have a lot left over to build soon.
Remember, one of the things that they say is that by 2030, you will not own
anything,
but you're going to love it.
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
But the attack on personal private property is just going through the roof.
And is anyone paying attention?
We are.
We talk about two big cases in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck program.
So, what's keeping you from doing the things that you really want to do?
Things that you just, you know what, someday I'm going to do this.
I learned from my father, do not wait to do the things you want to do.
My dad said, someday I'm going to retire and I'm just going to play golf.
I'm going to play golf every day.
By the time he retired,
his body was so broken down that he couldn't do the things that he wanted to do.
So, what's stopping you now?
If it's pain,
please listen.
There is a possibility, a 70% chance, if you try Relief Factor, that you can get out of pain.
Doesn't work for everybody, and you'll know in the next three weeks.
So may I ask you to just call 800-500-8384, 800-500-8384, or you can go online to relieve factor.com.
Again, just order the three-week trial pack because they don't want you buying a bunch of stuff that you're not going to use.
And if it's not working for you at all in three weeks, it's not going to work for you.
70% of those who try it go on to order more month after month.
I've had so many people in this audience write and say, I can't believe how I feel again.
I can do the things I want to do.
Do them.
Stop wasting another day in pain.
800-500-8384, it's
factor.com.
The Biden administration announced yesterday that it supports waiving intellectual property protections for COVID-19 vaccines.
Okay, let me give you the...
Let me give you the compassionate story.
Right now, there are places in Africa that don't have the vaccine.
Right now, there are places like India that is exploding
and they need the vaccine.
So, what do we do?
Well, there's several things we could do.
We could all band together, and the United States government and the bully pulpit of the president could say, we need the vaccine.
We need to help India.
And I know this audience alone would raise,
I mean, we've raised $50 million
for
things before, almost a drop of a hat in six months.
If there's a real humanitarian crisis, the American people will step to the plate.
Just ask them.
They'll do it.
So you could do that.
You could encourage through churches that they raise money to buy vaccines.
You could even go to the companies and say, hey, is there anything that you guys can do?
Can you help these countries out?
They are massively slammed right now.
Those would be the things that would come to my mind.
I would not say,
you know what?
Yeah, there's something we can do.
Just take the patent away.
Just tell all the companies around the world.
Just tell them, here's the formula.
We have it.
Oh, and by the way, it's not just the formula for this vaccine.
It is the way to make the vaccine.
It is something that has been in development by by some of these companies for 40 years.
And we're just supposed to give that up.
I wouldn't consider that as President of the United States.
And here's why.
Who is incentivized to help
anybody to come up with any kind of vaccines, life-saving vaccines, if they know at any time the government can come in and just take it?
The thing that always pisses me off about Robin Hood
is it drives me out of my ever-loving mind.
It's just like Robin Hood taken from the rich and given to the poor.
No, no, that's not what Robin Hood did.
You're leaving out half the story.
The government with the sheriff came in and took everything from the poor.
So Robin Hood wasn't stealing from the rich.
He was going back to collect all the things and the money that had been taken by the oppressive government to give it back to the original owners.
That's the story of Robin Hood.
But today's world, they'll say, Robert, this is Robin Hood.
Look, these companies have so much money and are just gonna get rich off of this.
And so we ought to take it from them.
They won't even notice.
Well, in this case, that's kind of true.
The COVID vaccine is such a small,
small
part of the bottom line of just one company that makes the little blue pill.
Do you think that they're like, oh man, this vaccine,
now we get rich?
There will always be a lack of erections for somebody.
And they are are taking care of that.
This
is not even in that category.
Okay.
So
what would you do if you were
at Pfizer or you were at one of these companies, when the president comes out and says, vaccine supply for American people is secured now.
But
we're going to work with the private sector and all possible partners to expand vaccine manufacturing and
distribution.
You know,
we're going to do those things.
But, you know,
I think that maybe we should maybe end the patent protection.
The only thing that makes me happy is a lot of these companies are part of the Great Reset.
They've all bought into the Great Reset.
We're going to be partners.
We're going to be a public
private partnership.
And we're going to be protected.
It'll be all the other companies that won't
Yeah, they're going to come and eat your lunch too, Jack.
You're just going to be the last one that they eat, but they will eat you.
If I were at one of these companies today, I would not only gear up with my attorneys, I would, just as a PR campaign, because it won't cost you that much in the grand scheme of things,
I would just say, India, I would have actually done this last week, but you know, I'm,
wait a minute, I am a doctor.
Maybe I could get a job there.
I would have last week when I found out about India or two weeks ago, I would have said, you know what, guys, make sure that America, the home base, is taken care of.
But what can we do to help India?
India, we're just going to send you, worry about the price later, or, you know, here's a bunch of it free just to get you started, but here you go.
That's what these companies should do on their own.
You know, Ben Franklin was big into patents really big into patents why
because patents protect the inventor they protect the investor they protect you can have the greatest idea i have ideas oh my gosh i have ideas for disney that only disney kind of money would be able to pull off and they are great i've told them to several people i've tried to tell them to disney but they won't take new ideas i've told them to several people i mean people like former people at Wedd and they would be and they were like that's fantastic yeah I know but it would take Disney style money to do
okay
that's the reason you have patents because I got a million ideas but not the money to pull them off somebody does if I pitch it to the right person will they do it And should, if it's a huge success, should they then lose money because somebody goes, that's a great idea.
and you know what we really need that
for instance
the iphone the cell phone
the
connectivity that we all enjoy right now being able to do everything on our iphone there you could convince a lot of americans that you couldn't live without your iphone today
Oh, and I love this argument.
Why don't we just revoke the patent for the iPhone and let anyone make the iPhone?
It's really kind of essential that everyone has an iPhone.
You know, for as wonderful and utopian that that world seems to be,
as soon as you start doing that, the people who do have ideas stop having ideas because they're not willing to make a better mousetrap.
Because
why?
I mean, I'll make it maybe a better mousetrap for my house, but why am I going to try to gather a bunch of people and say, hey, let's make a company because this will really serve.
Because you're Jesus?
No,
that's not going to happen.
You have to have the human incentive of being able to make something.
Now, You also strive to be a person like Ben Franklin.
Ben Franklin believed deeply in patents because it protects people.
However, he was the greatest inventor of the day
and he never took a patent out on anything.
He's the guy who came up with the potbelly stove.
Do you know how many people that saved?
Do you know how many women, women's lives were saved by Ben Franklin?
Because the potbelly stove didn't have an open flame.
I can't remember the number, but it was, it's an incredible.
Do you remember this stat, Stu?
It's like 20% of all deaths of women.
I think it was the leading cause of death of women besides natural causes, and that includes childbirth, I think was fire.
They burned to death because they had the skirts and they were near the open fire and they would catch fire and burn to death.
It was awful.
He came up with a potbelly stove.
It was much safer.
It was smaller.
It was economical.
It worked to heat people's houses.
He thought, I should share this with everybody.
I don't need the money.
And it was his choice.
Would Ben Franklin have invented all of those things if he was forced to do it by the king?
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
This is the problem with Marxism.
It takes away
every human natural trait.
As much as I wish
things didn't mean stuff to me,
they do.
They do.
And I can try to be Gandhi, but I'm sorry, I really like that.
I like that.
And I like the fact that that's mine.
And I worked hard to get that.
And I worked hard because I wanted to have that, collect that, live in that, drive that.
That is what humans do.
And we can all go to church and try to change that or gain perspective on that and balance that.
But you can't expect people to suddenly just go, oh, you know what?
Geez, why didn't Joe Biden pass that executive order earlier?
I now don't care about any stuff.
And I want to work hard just for the collective.
Screw my own personal interests.
it's not going to happen.
That's why Marxism always ends in concentration camps.
Because it's not normal.
It's why everyone who's a Marxist has to shut everyone else down.
Because
the one human trait
that they think will will beat every other human trait is fear.
If you are afraid, then you will go along with it.
But nobody will go along, nobody in this country would go along with
the cancel culture, with any of the crap that's being jammed down your throat right now, if they weren't afraid.
Some would, but it would be probably less than 10%.
The rest of the people would be like, I don't care.
I don't care.
The only reason why they do care is because the Marxists have made you afraid.
And afraid of what?
Of losing what you
own.
Losing your job, which in turn have you lose your house and your car and your status.
Those are human nature traits.
And this administration and others in it are coming for your right to own
your name, your ideas, your property, your home, your car, whatever it is.
And it's happening today.
We just mentioned about what's happening with these pharmaceutical companies.
Give me one second, and I'll show you how it's happening to people who own homes.
60 seconds.
All right.
Here's something you want to own until the government comes and takes it from you, just like everything else.
That is gold from Goldline.
Yesterday, I told you about a big, big, big, big, big investor who has, you know, been on CNBC since before there was a CNBC.
He's like 79 years old.
And
he's always made fun of people who buy gold.
Always, because he's like,
it's not something that is just going to grow out of control, blah, blah, blah.
You can make so much more money elsewhere.
Well, I've always told you I don't buy gold as an investment.
I buy it as a hedge against insanity.
Well, that's kind of what he said a couple of days ago.
He said, I kind of feel foolish because I've always made fun of those people, but now I see what's happening to the dollar and how they're debasing it and how there's not going to be a dollar.
And the only thing left that will have any value is gold.
I mean, he even didn't think land was as good.
Things are changing.
Things are changing and they're changing rapidly.
Please, it's not a difficult process.
Just call Goldline today.
Find out how you can get started.
You don't have a lot of money.
Well, do you have a 401k or a self-directed IRA?
Right now, if you have Goldline work on your self-directed IRA, they'll give you 6% in free metals just by going in and doing it.
It is a way to protect and hedge against the dollar on your retirement account.
They're waiting to hear from you right now.
Please call them at 866Goldline.
That's 866Goldline or goldline.com.
10 seconds station ID.
So, Stu,
I just went off and I meant to have more of a conversation with you, but sorry about that
with the prescription drug takeover.
Let's look now at the houses.
A federal judge just overturned the CDC, thank God.
Tell me what this story's all about.
Yeah, basically,
the reason why there was a moratorium on evictions in the country was because the CDC basically said, look,
you know, it's a pandemic.
We can't be putting people out in the street.
We're telling people to stay inside.
So we can't can't have people be evicted right now.
I mean, you can understand the generic thought process of that point.
Of course, it creates all sorts of other problems.
Like, for example, landlords who now can't get anyone to pay rent because everyone is telling them they're not, they don't have to.
So, you know, there's all sorts of stories of landlords going to
these houses over and over and over again.
People,
even though they're getting checks from the government, are refusing to pay the rent because they know they don't have to.
And instead,
they're looking through the windows and they're seeing big screen TVs that are brand new because they just got a check from the government to pay for the TV, but they're not paying rent.
And so, these landlords who continue to have to pay maintenance on the house, who continue to have to pay mortgages on the house, who continue to have to pay the taxes on the house, and all of the other associated costs of running a business like this,
they are
unable to be able to get the actual income from these homes and are going bankrupt.
They're running up their credit cards and all these other things.
Yeah, but they didn't get the bailout.
They're evil landlords, but they're evil landlords.
So why do I care?
Well, you know, many of them aren't evil landlords.
No, no, they're landlords.
No, I know.
I understand the great reset point here in this conversation.
But, you know, like the Washington Post had a great story about a guy who was an immigrant who came over here and built the American dream out of buying houses in low-income areas, fixing them up, and renting them to lower middle class types who have been able to improve
these areas immensely because
it's helped bring, revitalize an entire community.
And now
he took his money and he...
Yeah, but he took his money and he bought a Mercedes.
And so
when he drives by, this was in the story.
When he drives by some of the houses of the people and he sees the new big screen TV that the government bought for them and he's not getting rent from those people, they just look out the window and say, yeah, but he drives a Mercedes.
Why should I give it to him?
Right.
That is basically what they said in the story.
So yesterday they had a ruling came out from a federal court that said, basically, look,
the legislation gets to decide whether it's a good idea to have a moratorium on
evictions.
That's something the legislation gets to do.
Our goal here and our charge here is to just say, does the CDC have the legal authority to ban evictions over the entire country for a year?
And they do not.
They do not.
They do not.
They do not.
No, they do not.
Thank God.
However, this has caused all kinds of problems.
They believe it's one of the reasons why people are having a hard time finding houses to buy and the reason why
housing prices, existing housing prices,
are going up because of the CDC.
Josh Holly next.
The Glenbach program.
Let me tell you about Car Shield.
There is nothing worse.
There's never a good time for your car to break down.
I don't care.
You could be Bill Gates.
And somebody could, you know, phone him from the front of his car and say, excuse me, Mr.
Gates,
the car is broken down.
He would never say, oh, okay, perfect time.
It's great.
I wasn't going to do anything anyway today.
And, you know,
I didn't want you to
be bored.
So now your day in, probably a few days, just going to be disrupted like crazy.
Congratulations on that.
It's perfect timing.
Never, never does that happen.
Never do you get a bill from your car after it broke down and you're like, oh,
this is perfect.
Okay, good.
This is great.
I was wondering what i was going to do with that two thousand dollars never happens

So we have been talking about the loss of property rights, patent rights.
Let's talk about the loss of your right to speak freely, to gather with people that you,
you know, agree with, to petition the government.
All of these things are going away.
And a lot of them are going away because of what Senator Josh Hawley calls the tyranny of big tech.
We welcome the senator from Missouri to the program.
Hello, Senator Holly.
How are you, sir?
I'm doing great.
Thanks for having me.
You bet.
You know, the news of the last couple of days has been how Facebook, Twitter, they're just going to continue to ban Donald Trump.
And they're saying because he was part of that giant insurrection, the worst attack on our republic since the Civil War.
Yeah, you know.
I don't think that's why they're banning him.
Go ahead.
Yeah,
no, it's why they're banning him is they don't like his speech, and they're banning him and can get by with it, Glenn, because they're monopolies.
And all of their customers and consumers have nowhere else to go because there's no competition.
So you think about, well, my gosh, I don't like what Facebook's doing.
Where would I go?
What platform would I go to that would be different than Facebook and have different rules?
The The answer is nowhere because Facebook is in monopoly and they are actively buying up competition and suppressing new entrants in the market, ditto, with Twitter.
We saw Parler, a competitor to Twitter, try to get off the ground earlier this year.
And what happened back in January?
Well, Twitter and Amazon and Apple and Google got together and canceled Parler within the space of like 48 hours.
So these are monopoly companies with monopoly power over speech.
And we've got to do something about it.
So one of the things, you've written a new book called The Tyranny of Big Tech.
And I think this is the one thing I'm glad you're dealing with it.
I mean, there's a lot of big talk in the Senate, but I don't see anybody actually going for the throat of
people
and doing anything, proposing anything that actually will change and release the chokehold they have.
Part of it, I think, is because of money, but I think also part of it is they are so incredibly powerful because of the information that they have.
Why is it we can't get our government to move on them?
Well, I think part of that is because big tech has purchased so much influence in Washington and on Capitol Hill.
They have spent a decade or more purchasing lobbyist influence and think tank influence and academic influence and influence on congressional staffs in terms of staffers that they recruit to come join them.
You know, it's really, it's really, really extraordinary.
And you see how they really doubled down on this last election, dumping money into the Biden-Harris campaign.
I mean, you talk about trying to buy access to the White House.
These companies have done it.
And that's one of the reasons why the Democrats right now are delighted with the power of big tech.
They love, they secretly love the monopoly status because these companies will censor in a way the government couldn't.
And the Democrats want them to do that and they want them to do more of it.
They politicize all the time for them to do more of it.
And it is it is terribly frightening.
I think they don't want Donald Trump back online because they know he can draw a crowd.
And
you don't want anyone who can unite the other side.
They're too busy dividing.
You can't have somebody that can unite and bring a coalition that can actually stand against
this movement from the left.
No, that's exactly right.
It's an effort to silence on big tech's part, an effort to silence voices of opposition with whom they disagree and who represent a contrary view.
You saw them do it back in the fall when they tried to suppress reporting on Hunter Biden and Joe Biden locking the New York Post out of their account on Twitter, Facebook, not allowing the story to be circulated and distributed.
I mean, you talk about a brazen intervention in a presidential election.
I mean, trying to influence and stop the news during a presidential election, and then even more so in January, of course, where they de-platformed the former president, where they kicked bunches of conservatives off of Twitter and Facebook and these platforms, and where they canceled Parler.
I mean, so this is real power, Glenn.
This is monopoly power.
And to your point about what we're going to do about it, we've got to break these companies up.
We cannot try and go along to get along.
You've got to break these companies up, and you've also got to give American citizens the right to go to court and to sue these companies if they take action against them based on political viewpoint.
That's my view.
Give Americans the power to go to court, break up these companies.
I'd like one more thing.
They're making all this money because of all the information they're gathering on us.
Who I am, what I do, belongs to me, not to them.
Just because they have given me a device that allows them to follow me, I really don't like the power that they have of following me, monitoring me, analyzing me, predicting me.
No, thank you.
I'd like to opt out on that.
And if you want to sell my information as I opt in, you can do that and you'll get a slice of it.
But so will I.
That's right.
And, you know, these companies, their business model is built on taking our data and our personal information without our consent, to your point, Glenn, and then selling it or monetizing it without our permission and without any say from us of any kind.
And I agree with you 100%.
Individuals ought to be able to control their own information.
It is private property.
It's our private property.
In the same way, families, parents ought to be able to control their kids' information.
These tech companies track your kids around.
They build dossiers in your kid.
I say this as a parent of three small children.
You know, this is crazy, creepy stuff that they currently get by with, and we've got to stop it.
We've got to give people control again over their own property, over their own data.
So I'm very libertarian in my views of business, and I have really wrestled with two things.
In the past, I have wrestled with the, quote, robber barons.
Many of those guys were not robber barons.
Some of them were.
And I've always wondered, when you amass so much wealth and power,
how do you stop that from
affecting everyone or infecting everything?
And the only way that I can come up with that I'm comfortable with is
you cannot cannot lobby laws.
The law and the government must be completely separate and blind from corporations.
But I don't think that's possible.
How do you stop the because these, I think you would agree with me, the people like Zuckerberg will be remembered as really bad robber barons taking from people,
getting rich, and then doing what they want, and many times against the interest of the people.
That's certainly how they're behaving now, Glenn.
There's no doubt about it.
And I think when you look at American history, where we draw the line, those of us especially who believe in free markets, who believe in free competition and who believe in capitalism, where we draw the line is to say, you know,
we want people to be successful.
You bet.
We want businesses to be successful.
Yes, we do.
What we do not want to see, though, is a business amass a bunch of market power and then use it to suppress competition and use it to suppress innovation and use it to try and control the political process, which is what we're seeing from these tech companies.
That's, I think, where we need to draw the line.
I mean, my view is, is that breaking up monopolies reinforces the market because it introduces new competition.
So I'd like to see more competition.
I'd like to see more businesses.
I'd like to see more choice for consumers out there.
And if we had more competition, these guys would have less power.
But right now, the amount of power they have is frightening.
I will tell you that in your book, you talk about the Apple App Store, and you're absolutely right i remember the first time i wanted to put an app on there and i realized they take i can't even remember what it is some obscene amount of money like 30 of everything and you're like what and there's no negotiation they tell you exactly how the app has to run they tell you everything about your own business and i thought wow that's that's a company that's completely out of control And look how much money they're getting because they're the only option.
They're the only option.
Is the Apple tax, the infamous Apple tax that you just referenced, and you're right.
And what they also usually do is, you know, with your, let's say, your app, for instance, Glenn, then they take all of your data about your customers.
Yes.
So Apple says, you're going to give us everything, you know,
all of the info.
It's crazy.
It's really bad.
So
the name of the book, we're talking to Senator Josh Hawley about his new book,
It's my understanding that Simon and Schuster
actually had this book.
And we can talk for hours about Simon ⁇ Schuster.
I just ended my 10-year prison sentence with these people
because they had a hostile takeover and they just
eliminated any conservative in that company.
But you had a contract with them on this book.
What happened?
Well, they canceled it.
I mean, the book is all about how big tech is trying to control our politics and trying to control free speech.
And then big tech teamed up with this corporate publisher to try to cancel this very book.
I mean, you talk about irony.
But Simon ⁇ Schuster originally commissioned the book, and then in January, following January 6th, Simon ⁇ Schuster turned around and said, oh, we're going to try to deplatform Holly.
We're going to cancel this book.
They accused me of helping incite a riot at the United States Capitol, which is totally and 100% false.
And by the way, they know it's false.
But what they did is bowed down to the big tech Twitter mob.
You had had a big a twitter uh petition that started that said deplatform holly cancel his book contract take this away silence him and simon and schuster got right in there with them you know i'm grateful that there's still independent businesses and independent publishers in this company so my book it was not canceled it's available now and i just said glenn my view is this with this cancel culture you've got to go out and take a stand and refuse to be canceled and that's what i said at the time i am not going to go along with this i'm i refuse to be cowed i refuse to be silenced.
I refuse to be canceled.
I'm going to keep speaking in whatever forum I can, and I'm glad that the book found its way to print.
Yeah, good for you.
Again, the name of the book is
One last question I can't leave out.
You,
I love you for this.
You tie Woodrow Wilson into
big tech and really kind of point to him as kind of the guy of the modern oligarchy.
And I think that's really what we're headed for is
an oligarchy where these guys are in bed with the government, the government's in bed with the big businesses, and they're controlling everything, and we just go along.
And
it is really difficult because at the time, it seemed as though it was a socialist movement, a communist movement.
Progressives said, we're going to take it step by step because we don't believe in the bloody revolution of 1917.
But it's not.
It is really an oligarchy.
And I think that's becoming very, very clear to people now on both the left and the right.
Wilson, I think, really
begins this trend of embracing corporate power and monopoly power.
He's also our first globalist president in many ways, someone who
wanted the United States to become a liberal empire
worldwide and wanted the United States
to enmesh its economy with the global economy.
And so, there's you know, the globalists tend to love Wilson, and there's a real reason for that.
And Wilson, I think, begins this trend in American politics.
He ushers in a new era in American politics where it's really sort of a form of corporatism, where you see these big, huge corporate behemoths, and the government says, Well, look, you know, here's how we'll deal with them.
We'll get big government and the big corporations together, and together we'll kind of run things.
You know, big mistake, big, big mistake.
And this gets back to the Republican Party, conservatives, our roots in free markets, in competition, in the rights of individuals and families.
And that's what we've got to recover.
And we've got to get back to a place where individuals have power over their own property, individuals have a say in control over their own government, and not these mass, not these oligarchs in Washington, D.C.
or Silicon Valley.
I'd love to talk to you more about this because you also put Teddy Roosevelt, who I love and hate at the same time, in his proper place on this, and that is the disease that permeated the GOP and had the GOP kind of really, pretty much going on the same line as the progressive Democrat.
Senator Josh Hawley, the author of the book, The Tyranny of Big Tech, an important book, small book, and easy to read.
The Tyranny of Big Tech.
Josh Hawley, thank you so much.
Appreciate it, Senator.
Thank you for having me.
You bet.
We need to spend an hour with him.
I need to do a
show with him, a podcast.
By the way, I've got Jordan Peterson on the podcast today that's coming out tonight on Blaze TV, and you'll hear it on the podcast for everybody on Saturday.
But you can get it a couple of days early if you're a subscriber to Blaze TV.
If you haven't heard by now, Hustler Turf makes the best zero-turn lawnmowers for both homeowners and landscaping professionals with deck sizes as small as 34 inches, which can fit through most residential gates, all the way up to 104 inches.
So they have the perfect size no matter what you need.
By the way, the 104-inch mower, it can cut a football field in less than 10 minutes.
So, whatever size you need, they have it.
They've been building these industrial lawnmowers for so long, zero-turn industrial lawnmowers,
and now they're available to you on a residential scale.
The reason why I mentioned that is because they have been built for what, four decades, five, six decades now,
built to mow lawns eight hours a day, six days a week.
So they are built to last.
You're never going to find a lawnmower like a hustler.
Go to a hustler dealer, find one near you at hustlerturf.com.
That's hustlerturf.com.
Go test drive zero-turn lawnmowers all you want.
Make sure that you find a hustler dealer and go to hustlerturf.com and test drive a hustler because there is no comparison.
It's hustlerturf.com.
That's hustlerturf.com.
You are listening to the Glen Beck program.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Yesterday, we talked about a Tennessee lawmaker who was trying to explain to his fellow lawmakers the three-fifths clause in the Constitution and do it accurately and historically.
It didn't work out well for him.
It did not.
I went through all this on Studios America last night.
It's worth going back because this is one of those things that is constantly repeated, and they trashed this guy in the media, lied about it constantly.
But let me just give you this one piece of evidence, Glenn.
Frederick Douglass.
He said, quote, the three-fifths clause is a downright disability laid upon the slave-holding states, slave-holding states, one which deprives those states of two-fifths of their natural basis of representation.
Therefore, instead of encouraging slavery, the Constitution encourages freedom by giving an increase of two-fifths of political power to free over-slave states.
That's not me.
That's not some random conservative.
It's Frederick freaking Douglas.
And Frederick Douglass, by the way, thought he went into it thinking that the Constitution was exactly what Marxists say it is.
And then he was asked, have you read it?
He read it, he studied it, he read the words of the founders and was like, this is the great emancipating proclamation the world has ever seen.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Thank you so much, Hillary.
Today, our sponsor is Hustler Turf.
Hustler Turf, you know, you know, talk about a fantastic product.
These are guys that came up with this idea of the zero-turn lawnmower a long time ago.
And, you know, now that spring is here and summer is around the corner, you know, grass is growing like crazy.
You're going to have to go out and cut it.
You're going to have to do that.
And you might as well do it in style, right?
I mean, these are the people who came up with this idea to make
mowing the lawn not a complete catastrophe like it was when I was a kid and I had to do it and it came out really uneven and I missed a lot of spaces and I usually spent most of the time outside yelling expletives.
The hustler turf makes it easy, makes it enjoyable to be outside mowing the lawn.
And this is the technology that was like, you know, industrial level stuff that they're bringing to your home now.
So you're going to get this done faster and better than you could possibly imagine.
Make sure you get the,
check out.
I mean, look, you're going to go, you're gonna get a new lawnmower this year if you're gonna do that why not check out hustler turf they're the best in the business the best in the business hustler turf let's go to hustlerturf check it out now I can follow them on all of the social media as well as hustlerturf.com check it out now hustlerturf.com you can test drive one now hustlerturf.com
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback Program.
Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.
It is Thursday.
We have a jam-packed show today and a jam-packed hour.
I want to get right to it.
They have, the left has already taken over
access to information, you know, through social media, also through the regular corporate media.
And they've taken over education, changing the way we look at history, the way we view ourselves, our traditions.
And now they're working hard to make sure they never lose an election again.
What's happening with the census and redistricting?
We begin there in 60 seconds.
The Glenn Beck Program.
Patricia lives in Michigan.
She's been living with pain in her knees and her hips for nearly a decade, for the longest time.
She just braced herself every day and dealt with it because she was in her 60s.
And she's like, that's what happens when you get older, but it doesn't have to.
She was listening to this program one day.
She heard me mention Relief Factor and how it had taken away my pain and given my life back, which it has.
She decided, oh,
what do I have to lose?
I could be one of the 70% who try it, who go on to order more because it works for them.
She wrote to me and she said, I'm glad I did.
A couple of weeks after starting the three-week quick trial, she began to feel better.
First, it was just a little.
Then her pain just went away.
Patricia, I am so happy you have your life back.
I have my life back.
Will you give it a try?
I invite you to just call
Relief Factor.
The number is 800-58384.
800-58384.
It's relieffactor.com.
The Republican leader on the House Oversight Committee is Congressman James Comer from Kentucky.
We welcome him to the program today.
Congressman, how are you, sir?
I'm great, Glenn.
Thanks for having me on.
Good.
Thank you for coming on.
I want to talk to you about the census because something hinky is going on.
And with HR1, we see that the Democrats are willing to do anything to protect themselves and to try to guarantee that they will never lose another election.
And the census came out, it was finished.
And all of a sudden, it was supposed to be released, when was it?
The first of the year?
And now it's being
go ahead.
You tell the story.
You'll be better at it.
I apologize.
It's supposed to be released December 31st, but they had even said the previous census director that they might wrap it up by September the 30th.
So
that was what we were going by.
And then
the election happens and things start changing.
We don't hear from the census director.
And then the end of the year approaches and they say, well, it's going to be March before we get the final results in.
And then finally in May, they release the results.
But along the way, they were releasing estimates, estimates.
And historically, the final results aren't very far off the estimates, you know, maybe a fraction.
The estimates were that Arizona was going to gain a seat, that Texas was going to gain three seats, that Florida was going to gain two seats.
And then when the results
came out,
Arizona gained none, but Colorado out of the blue gained one.
Texas only gained two.
New York was supposed to lose two.
They barely lost one by 89 people.
And then Illinois was supposed to lose two, and they only lost one.
So what happened was the final results were very different than the estimates, and they heavily
fell in the favor of the blue states and the Democrats.
So, you know, as someone that travels a lot, it seems to me like people are moving out of those blue states to the south, to the red states.
Right.
According to the census, that's not what happened.
So
what do we take from this?
I mean, some people I've heard from some Republicans, they're like, no, it's really working in our favor.
It doesn't matter.
I don't care whose favor it's working towards.
I want an accurate census, and I want to know what the truth is.
We have to trust the system.
So
what do we do here?
Well, the House Oversight Committee has jurisdiction over the census.
And during the process of last year, the former census director was Director Dillingham.
He would come periodically and update us on the census.
And obviously, they had the COVID situation and
they halted people from knocking on doors and all that.
But a majority of Americans did it online this year.
So that was
something that had changed from previous censuses.
But once the election occurred, we lost communication with Dillingham.
And then when Biden took office,
they asked for Dillingham's resignation.
Now, the White House is not supposed to be involved in the census.
The census is supposed to be independent of the White House.
And that was one of the things the Democrats always criticized Trump, saying, well, he's interjecting himself in the census.
He was not.
He just said what the majority of Americans want, and that there should be two counts, a count of who all is over here and how many are over here illegally.
And we don't reward states like California that have three electoral college votes from illegal
residents.
Right.
So
they didn't, when they released those results last week, They didn't have a press conference.
They didn't update the House Oversight Committee.
They didn't say, okay, these are the results.
And you probably have a question why all these red states didn't fare as well as we were estimating over the past two years, but this is why.
And it was just, here's the numbers.
And this affects, as you know, congressional representation for the next 10 years.
So we have a lot of questions.
We've requested information.
from the new census director.
I don't even know who he is because I've never met him,
the one that Biden, I guess, put in.
And
when we requested that information, they referred us to the White House.
What in the world is that all about?
The White House is supposed to be independent of the census.
So I feel like there are a lot of questions that need to be answered, and they need to be answered now because these state legislatures are going to start redistricting.
So
it's just a lot of suspicious activity, and we're trying to get to the bottom of it.
This also affects, not just because of redistricting, but it also affects the 2022 election because this is now such a mess that
congresspeople who are running don't know exactly who they should be targeting in their campaigns, right?
That's exactly right.
I believe that my rural district in Kentucky, I'm going to have to add 75,000 people.
That's, you know, in Kentucky, that's about three or four new counties.
So,
but we have no idea what to, how to draw the lines yet because
they gave the results for the state, but they didn't break it down by counties and cities.
So, obviously, you have to know that to be able to draw the line.
So, there are more questions than answers.
Let me think as if I were nefarious.
Is there a possibility that one side gets that information, seeing now that it's being directed by the White House, one side gets that information sooner than the other side, and that can affect elections?
It's possible.
Anything's possible, I've learned with the Biden administration in the first hundred days, but we haven't detected that yet.
And eventually they're going to have to come out with the results from a county-by-county breakdown.
So are you in a position in the oversight committee?
Are you in a position of doing anything really about this?
Because the Democrats control it.
Right.
Well, we've got new power on the oversight committee.
As Elijah Cummins, when he was
ranking member, when the Republicans were in the majority and Trump was in the White House, the Democrats filed a lawsuit saying the minority members of the Oversight Committee should have more authority to receive information from the administration.
Long story short, the court finally ruled in favor of the minority.
Well, now the Republicans are in the minority and the administration's Democrat.
So we've got the ability to receive information.
It's just this is supposed to come from the census and not the administration.
This is a separate deal.
So we'll, if we have to file suit and go through the courts to get this information, we're going to do it.
We're not going to let up on it.
It's too important.
This comes around every 10 years, and it's clearly in the jurisdiction of the House Oversight Committee.
It's just I mean, it's written in the conference.
It's written in the Constitution that way.
So there's no,
it's not going to take a judge to, well, I'm not sure what they meant by that.
It's clearly spelled out that it is to Congress and not any other branch.
Correct?
That's correct.
You're correct.
Okay.
Boy, I don't know how you guys do it every day, but
we pray for you.
We pray for you.
Thank you so much, Congressman.
Thank you for having me on, Glenn.
Appreciate it.
You bet.
You bet.
You can follow him, James Comer, Comer, C-O-M-E-R.house.gov.
He is the Congressman from Kentucky.
I mean,
Stu, it is like they I mean, they are just
doing
everything
to screw up the next election.
Yeah, I mean,
that does seem seem to be
something they're attempting to do.
I mean, they've always been trying to do what they can do to give themselves an advantage.
But with everybody having so many issues with the last one,
you hate to see this.
I mean,
it really pushes us down a road that we do not want to go down.
You know, there's,
can you have somebody look up a story?
I don't even remember,
I remember very little of it, but it was a story that came out last year that talked about how the Democrats had a think tank where they were looking at the powers of the cabinet.
Do you remember this story?
Yeah.
And they were, they were, it w it was, you know, with kind of a Cass Sunstein kind of look at who, which cabinet members had their hands on dials or who had access to dials, buttons, and levers that they could change and tweak.
And together, all of those little changes in each cabinet would fundamentally transform things and nobody would even know about it.
They wouldn't have to go through Congress and it would change things.
Yes, I do remember that story.
You should probably look that story back up
and
see who is involved in that and see how things are going.
Because this is very, very well coordinated.
We've said this, I don't know how many times.
Historians will look back at this and they will say, I can't believe Americans fell for this.
And the argument will be, it was brilliant.
It was brilliantly done.
These people had arguably some of the best minds and the biggest capital on earth.
And they did their homework.
For decades, they did their homework and
they laid the plans carefully and executed them really flawlessly.
I mean, this is the biggest heist of freedom, of money in the history of the world, and it will be remembered as that at some point.
All right, back in just a second with more.
Let me tell you about RealEstateAgentsITrust.com.
It's a company that I started.
And for me to be able to name a company,
Real Estate Agents I Trust, I had to be sure that there were lots of really good, hardworking, honest real estate agents that
were all over the country that knew what they were doing.
That's why my first business idea, Politicians I Trust, never
really launched.
Anyway, truth is, a lot of really good real estate agents out there, and they generally have the best ones, have the same marketing ideas.
They're the ones with the big websites that actually have hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people checking those websites and their listings every single month.
So it creates demand and that way your house gets sold for top dollar and quicker than anyone else.
These are the people with the track record.
So if you are looking to buy or sell a house right now, I want you to go to realestate agentsitrust.com.
If we have a real estate agent in your area, we will recommend one right away.
It's a free service to you.
We'll get back to you.
Usually it's within an hour.
Usually it's five or ten minutes.
But we'll try to get back to you right away, give you a name.
You interview them.
We've already vetted them and feel that these are the best people in your area.
So just give it a whirl.
Start there.
Realestateagents I trust.com.
10 seconds, station ID.
There is a problem, and we're going to talk about it next hour,
and it really revolves around the word equity.
Equity and equality are very different.
Equality, root word being equal, all men are created equal, and it focuses on the individual.
Equity does not follow and focus on the individual.
Equity focuses on the collective, the group, that everyone will finish the same.
So you have to compare yourself always to somebody else.
What's the problem with Facebook and, well, I mean, this is a long list, but what's the first problem that we have with Facebook and social media?
is that you feel bad because you're constantly comparing yourself to somebody else.
And you'll see, usually bogusly, you'll see, oh, well, they're really happy.
They're really doing something and I don't have that opportunity and you feel bad about yourself comparing your position to anyone is a irrelevant and b
a recipe for disaster
that's equity an equal outcome
that's not what america is based on next hour i'm going to show you how they are taking this equitable idea and destroying property rights.
They are destroying the individual.
This cannot stand.
And it comes from Marx, from each according to his ability to each according to his needs.
This is the problem.
They say that we are unequal with one another.
And yeah, we are.
We're born equal, meaning we have the same rights.
But what we do with those rights and our learned responsibilities
is up to us.
If you decide to go through school and skate, well, that's your choice.
Oh, you didn't get a good grade.
Well, you didn't study.
Oh, I know, but I have problems at home.
Okay, that's cool.
And, you know, we can talk about that.
Don't get that grade.
Your problem is, you don't get that grade because that grade means something.
It's a way for us as individuals to sort people and say, nope, this person is a performer.
Now, you can come and say, well, but I have special circumstances.
That's cool.
That's cool.
But I may, for instance, a surgeon.
Yeah, I got all Ds
in surgery.
And I know you're looking for a new surgeon, but I had a really tough time because I have a sleeping disorder.
Okay, all right.
Did you have that taken care of?
Well, kind of.
Okay, I need a a surgeon that is the best.
So that grade tells me you're not the best.
And you're not filling me with a lot of belief that you are correcting that problem and you are the best.
So sorry.
I don't want an equal doctor.
I want the best doctor.
And all of us know this.
All of us know this.
I don't want an equal bridge.
I want the best bridge.
If I am, if I'm driving over a big span of a canyon, I don't want, well, all bridges, it's an equal outcome.
No, uh-uh, no, it's not.
I want to make sure that one was built by the best people and it's the best steel, etc., etc., etc.
What's happening right now is we are now starting to,
we've done college-ready math benchmark scores.
They are now
abolishing this.
The SAT now is
being abolished.
You don't have to have an SAT.
You don't have to take those if you don't want to.
And colleges are like, yeah, it's racist.
It's really kind of a problem.
University of California, the system there for the university, ending the use of the SAT
because it's a racist test.
A thousand colleges have now said, we're eliminating it.
Graduate schools are also eliminating the GRE entrance exam.
Virginia Department of Education getting rid of accelerated math courses for 11th grade because they improve equity in mathematics and learning opportunities.
I need the best mathematician, not one who had the standards lowered for them.
We're putting a man in space.
I want to make sure the math is right.
And what happens?
If it's not right,
somebody dies.
And then who gets the blame?
The system?
The group?
Why didn't you have somebody else checking his math?
You knew he didn't have the highest scores.
Well,
okay.
Students who didn't sign the petition at the University of Columbia last spring when medical students demanded they stop being graded by their professors.
Students who didn't sign the petition were warned they would be outed for being willing to sit in their own privilege at the expense of their black and brown peers.
Are you telling me that doctors, medical students who are black or brown, can't get a good grade?
And if that's true,
then maybe I shouldn't go to a doctor.
I should start judging people by the color of their skin because you're telling me they're incapable of getting a good score.
So are they incapable of being doctors too?
Because I think that's really racist.
Common sense, America.
Common sense.
We have to begin to take a stand on some of these things and a hard stand on them or we're going to lose everything.
This is the Glenback program.
By the way, I'll show you how to take that hard stand just in just about two minutes standby.
Time's almost up.

Last night on Blaze TV, I did a Wednesday night special based on the three biggest lies of race in America.
Where we're going is just
phenomenally bad.
I mean, it's historically bad.
You can find the examples of what we're doing at the beginning of every...
every genocidal movement in the world.
Now, it doesn't have to end that way, but this is the way they started.
So we were talking about race and in education, etc., etc.
And Mark Robinson is a guy who you know, I think you've heard before.
Let me play a clip of where you might know him from.
This is a YouTube clip.
He's standing in front of, I think it was his city council.
Listen.
What I really came down here for is this.
I've heard a whole lot of people in here talking tonight about this group and that group and domestic violence and blacks, these minorities, and that minority.
What I want to know is, when are you all going to start standing up for the majority?
And here's who the majority is.
I'm the majority.
I'm a law-abiding citizen who's never shot anybody, never committed a serious crime, never committed a felony.
I've never done anything like that.
But it seems like every time we have one of these shootings, nobody wants to blame, put the blame where it goes, which is at the shooter's feet.
You want to put it at my feet.
You want to turn around and restrict my right,
constitutional right that's spelled out in black and white.
You want to restrict my right to buy a firearm and protect myself from some of the very people you're talking about in here tonight.
It's ridiculous.
I don't think Rod Serling could come up with a better script.
It does not make any sense.
The law-abiding citizens of this community and many communities around this country, we're the first ones taxed and the last ones considered and the first ones punished when things like this happens because our rights are the ones that are being taken away.
That's the reason why
This was an amazing viral video.
Mark, in case you lost track of him as I did, has now become the lieutenant governor of North Carolina.
He was a factory worker when he gave that speech a couple of years ago.
He's now the lieutenant governor of North Carolina.
Mark, welcome to the program.
How are you, sir?
Hey, Glenn, Thank you for having me here again.
It's a pleasure.
You bet.
I am so impressed with you.
But
let me just pretend I don't know
and see if you could explain to those listeners who don't know what a lieutenant governor actually does.
Could you tell me the responsibilities?
I am, well, actually, I'm the president of the Senate.
That's my number one responsibility.
I preside over the Senate
in its daily duties.
I sit on the state school board.
I'm a voting member of the state school board.
I sit on the Energy Commission.
I also sit on the State Economic Commission as well as the Board of Governors for the community colleges.
Other than that,
we kind of do sort of what we want to do here.
We have a huge bully pulpit, and we are using that to our advantage here to push some agendas that we think definitely need to be pushed here in North Carolina.
Man, I don't know if you're a religious guy, but divine providence, I think, played a role in finding you.
So let's talk about what you're doing in the schools as a voting member of the school board.
You are addressing indoctrination, which is happening all across the country.
And parents, some parents, I am, really concerned about this.
And we don't really know what to do because sometimes we had in our own community here, right down the street, we had two council members and
directors of the school board arrested because they were hiding the information on critical race.
What are you doing in North Carolina that we should know about?
Well,
you know,
indoctrination in schools is something that I've known about for years.
My children experienced it when they were in high school.
I've experienced it and seen it firsthand at the university level.
I attended the university for the most part as an adult, and I saw it a great deal
when I was attending the university.
And
so we know it's a problem.
And all throughout our campaign, we heard about it from parents and teachers all across the state.
And so
the one thing that folks always push back against us and say, well, where's your proof that this exists?
Well, we are in the process now of proving that.
We start a task force here in North Carolina in our office called FACT.
And FACT stands for Fairness and Accountability in the Classroom for Teachers and Students.
And what it's aimed at doing is giving people who have been a victim of indoctrination in the classroom or at schools, no matter what their position may be, whether they be a principal, whether they be a teacher, whether they be a student, whether they be a parent.
a place where they can come and lodge their complaints.
We're going to look at those complaints, disseminate them, and then we're going to make sure that we deliver these things to the public.
And finally, start the process of doing something
about
this issue.
This is not just a North Carolina issue.
This is a national issue.
And for my money, it has become a national crisis because we are no longer teaching our children what they need to learn in the classroom to be successful outside of the classroom.
We have got to get education back into the business of education and out of the indoctrination platform.
And so we're first step in doing that.
We're only teaching them how to be activists.
We're not teaching them to be productive members of society, just activists.
That's it.
Absolutely.
So
you have, who's on this board, this facts board?
And
I mean, because people are afraid to come out and say anything.
I know several parents that don't want to say anything because they're afraid their students are going to get hassled, you know, by the teacher or in grades or whatever.
That happens in college all the time.
Students are afraid to disagree because there is no real freedom of speech and thought in the place where it's supposed to happen.
Most definitely, it's important that it happens in education.
Absolutely.
That is one of the most concerning things about this issue is there are people that are afraid to speak out.
We have 12 people on our board, 12 very capable people on our board who are willing to fight this thing and have been fighting it, some of them for a number of years.
But what I'd like to try to remind people about being afraid is this.
If you do not speak up against this tyranny now, it's not going to do you any good in the future.
You're still going to have to suffer the dreadful effects of this tyranny at some point.
And I can guarantee you, if we allow this tyranny to continue to exist, the price we will have to pay in the long term is going to be much steeper than the price we'll have to pay in the short term for standing up and bringing it to an end.
So, I'm encouraging people to speak up because there's going to be a price to pay either way.
But again, that long-term price is going to be much more dreadful than the short-term price.
I would encourage anybody who's in state government or even local government to look at facts from North Carolina
and just go to ltgov.nc.gov, and I'm sure you'll find it there.
But I urge you to consider putting something together like this for your
community.
And you do have people from
both sides and all sides on this committee that understand the problem.
So it's not just a right-wing thing, right?
Absolutely.
There are people from all across the community who are absolutely tired of our schools being used for political purposes.
We need, again, we need to get back to the business of teaching our children children what they need to know in order to be successful outside the classroom, to build businesses, to go into being doctors and lawyers,
to be plumbers and all the great things that we need in our society.
The classroom is not the place to push your views on people.
The classroom is a place where you teach people how to build their own views.
And
we need to make sure that that's happening.
Have you found a way or
by listening to people on the left, I shouldn't say on the left, but think differently,
how to talk to them about critical race theory?
Because I know lots of people are afraid of sitting down with somebody who they know, you know, voted for Biden, is in with a lot of this stuff, to talk about critical race theory because it'll go right to racists.
You know, it goes right there.
How do they,
how are they approaching this?
How do they view critical race theory in schools?
A lot.
Well, critical race theory is being pushed in our schools, sadly.
But the thing that we have to understand, and again, this goes back to education itself.
We have to go back and look in history and look at other ideologies that were pushed that were detrimental to our society.
If you go back and look at the racist ideologies that were pushed
in societies that had separate but equal and Jim Crow, many of them are the absolute, they're absolutely just like the ideologies we see in critical race theory, except instead of it being
white people who were racist,
it was black people being demonized.
And so this ideology that we have to demonize someone else in order to
raise the mobility of someone else is a fallacy.
We do not do that in this nation.
Equality is the key.
And critical race theory flies in the face of equality because it tells white people you are automatically less than because you are white.
That's not what we're supposed to be doing anymore that we're supposed to be telling black people that they're less than because they're black.
We need to be teaching all of our students that you have equal worth and an equal say in this nation and that this racist idea that because your ancestors did something terrible to someone else, that it's now your fault, it's just, it's patently wrong.
You know, I like to say it like this.
They love to say that our systems are racist.
Our systems are not racist.
It's not the systems that are racist.
It's some of the people who are in the system who are racist.
We need to make sure that we're taking care of the people and we need to make sure we allow the system to work like it should.
Critical race theory doesn't allow us to do that and therefore we need to make sure that it's not a part of what we teach in our schools.

Mark Robinson, thank you so much.
God bless you.
Thank you very much for having me again, Glenn.
It's a pleasure.
You bet.
By the way, there are other groups that, for instance, they're partnering with Parents Defending Education, and they are just trying to connect parents and teachers
while taking aggressive legal measures to resist indoctrinations in our schools.
So you do have tools, and I urge you to get involved, parents defending education, or
you can look up Mark Robinson if you're in North Carolina or in another state and you actually have an ability to start something in your state like this.

Uh-huh.
I'd rather go to somebody who has not been in the timeshare industry, but maybe is somebody who was in the, I don't know, law industry.
Rather have a big ass attorney firm.
And that's what timeshare termination team is.
These are attorneys that know the law, know exactly what to do, and can guarantee 100% money-back guarantee of getting you out of your timeshare.
So get that monkey off your back.

Boy, Stu, I am just seeing property rights being eroded everywhere.
Yes.
And
are you being sarcastic?
Because that sounds like
sarcastic.
I mean, there's two huge stories over the past couple of days where this is happening, in my view.
Give them to me.
One is
the rights of these pharmaceutical companies that came up with vaccines.
I want to talk about that at the beginning of next hour.
And the other is homeowners and
their rights to own and rent their own properties.
Crazy, right?
And I hope this is
a beginning of a trend in which all of these restrictions that were, I think, blatantly unconstitutional in the first place are going to get overturned in court.
But one big thing was the moratorium on evictions is in big trouble, and it should be, right?
Like the question to the court was: does the CDC have blanket authority to create a moratorium on
people being thrown thrown out for not paying rent over the entire country just by themselves with no vote, with nothing.
Do they have that authority?
And the courts came to the decision, no, they do not have that power.
So that's going to go up.
But they're going to make this all about the Marxists in the media will make this all about, oh, look at the big, mean
property owners.
You know, not all big property owners or small property owners are mean.
No.
Some of them are just like you.
And this is just the way they make their money.
Instead of going to an office or a factory, this is the way they make their money.
And they provide good housing for people at a fair and reasonable price.
And it's a contract and things happen.
Well, why didn't the government, if they were going to bail anybody out, why didn't they bail the people who own the properties?
Because they still had maintenance, they still had to pay for the utilities, and they still had to pay the mortgage.
And let's not forget, the one thing they could really easily control is not make them pay taxes.
But even that they had to continue to pay
throughout all of this.
There is an attack on property rights, but again, it goes back to the great reset of by 2030, they say, you will not own anything, and you'll like it.
I don't think so.
No,
no, because first of all, somebody's going to own something.
Who will that somebody be?
We're going to talk about that and the pharmaceutical companies next.

People pushing back in Montana.
The new governor up in Montana said they are stopping some of the federally funded unemployment benefits to address the state's severe workforce shortage.
nearly every sector in our economy faces a labor shortage, says the governor.
The vast expansion of the federal unemployment benefits is now doing more harm than good.
Wait until you hear this whole story.
You're going to want to move to Montana.
I mean, I already do.
And now they've got a great governor that is actually talking common sense.
We begin there in 60 seconds.
All right.
We really need to put our money where our heart is.
We need to be able to look at these companies and say,
do they agree with me, disagree with me?
And if they disagree with me, here's the important question.
Are they working against my interests?
When it comes to cellular technology, the answer is almost always yes.
And I mean, they are putting millions into things like Planned Parenthood, anti-Second Amendment things.
You've got to stop giving these people money.
Now, I would not come to you and say that if I didn't have an equal or better option for you, and it is Patriot Mobile.
Patriot Mobile has the broadest nationwide coverage.
They use the same cell towers as all the other carriers.
So you're going to get the same great service.
They have plans that will fit any budget.
They even have multi-line discounts.
They'll make it super easy to switch.
All you have to do is go to patriotmobile.com/slash back or call their U.S.-based customer service team at 972 Patriot.
That's 972 Patriot.
While you're at the website, you might as well enter to win a free phone and cellular service for life.
All the details are at patriotmobile.com/slash back.
So get great coverage, get great customer service, everything you need at a lower price, and you're not
paying for baby abortions.
How great is that?
My Mypatriotmobile.com slash back.
All righty, let's talk a little bit about Montana.
Stu,
I'm finding some governors that I absolutely love.
Still a little early.
I haven't kissed this governor yet, so I were not committed yet.
But the last couple of times I've seen the governor of Montana come up, I've loved him.
I've loved him.
Imagine.
Don't do this.
You know, this happens over and over again.
You fall in love with these politicians for like two weeks, and then they do something you don't like.
And then, and then there's just a nasty breakup.
And
it's like a reality TV show.
I haven't had a breakup with Governor Noam yet.
Haven't had one.
That's true.
I mean, there's some that have a good one.
Because I could.
But imagine Governor Noam.
And we take some of her, and then we take Governor Gianforte, and we make a baby.
Imagine what kind of governor we might have.
I don't know why.
I don't know why this has to happen over and over again.
I know, I know.
Listen,
so what he has said is they're having a shortage of workers, and it's happening all over the country, and we know why it's happening.
People are being paid more money.
by the federal government to stay at home than to go back to work.
And why would you do that?
Again, human nature.
So they're staying home.
Well, they're having a huge labor shortage in Montana.
And so the government knows that it is best for all of society if everybody is going to work and doing the things that they, you know, were trained to do.
So they're cutting off the unemployment benefits, the federally funded unemployment benefits, just at least some of them.
It's the extra $300 a month.
And they're going to take that extra $300 a month and they're going to start offering a return to work bonus to help every employer looking to hire.
So they're switching the incentives around.
Starting June 27th, if you are in Montana, you will lose access to the extra $300 in weekly unemployment benefits.
You can retain your regular benefits.
Contractors, gig workers, and others will also lose access to the pandemic unemployment assistance program, meaning those workers won't get any benefits.
This is going to really impact.
I'll bet you you see Montana roar back to life and possibly without a lot of local inflation.
Maybe.
You'll just see them go back to work, and if they can produce products, that helps lower inflation.
The more we pay, this
I just cannot believe that everyone in the government is this stupid, that everything that they are doing is destroying the work ethic, the business, property rights, freedom of speech rights.
Everything they're doing is destroying what we have built.
And I'm sorry, it's just no accident.
And I support any of these states doing what they have to do to
get people back to work and to enhance freedom.
Enhance freedom.
I don't support you if you're like, you're going to go to work or you're going to go to jail.
But anything that you can do that is within the constitutional power, do it.
Do it.
I know obviously you like to have evidence to support your claims, and you didn't provide any.
So let me at least ask you if you have some.
What evidence we had him on?
Remember, no, no, no, remember we had him on.
I didn't ask the question.
All right, go ahead.
What evidence do you have that the people in the government are not that stupid?
Okay, I don't have the evidence.
Okay, I don't know.
I didn't think so.
It sounded like a wild claim.
Yeah, other than they're all Ivy League, you know, churned out, which makes them all social justice warrior activists.
But beyond that, I have no evidence.
No evidence.
I haven't seen much, I will say, over the years.
Yeah, it's bad.
Can we go back to the permanent housing crisis that our government is creating now?
So the forbearance and mortgage bailout.
Forbearance is just
a fancy way of saying
they don't have enough money to pay for this, and so we're going to have to rewrite the loan.
or we're going to have to kick them out, but we can't kick them out because the government won't let us kick them out.
Bank of America came out last week and they said that
I think it was Bank of America was 22%.
And
Bank of America generally has had higher standards on mortgages than some of the other banks.
They think now that 30 to 35 percent of all mortgages are going to be in default the minute you take the forbearance
CDC dictate out.
So here's what happened.
Yesterday it was taken out, and Biden has said, no, you're not going to do that.
No,
we're going to fight this one.
And so what's happening is
we are causing all kinds of other problems.
We are causing now the actual landowners, the people who have the actual mortgages to the bank.
We have them under stress because they're not getting the money.
The money, if I mean, if you're going to do this and say the federal government is going to pay the rent, nobody's going to lose their house because we told you to stay home and so we'll pay the rent.
Well, they're not doing that.
They're just saying we're going to send you money.
They send the people in the house money, but the people are not required then to pay that to their landlord.
And so they're not.
So the government is screwing the banks now because the banks have all of this debt and somebody's got to pay the bank.
But I don't think the banks are all that concerned because they'll print more and get it from the Fed.
Then you have all of the business people, all of the people who,
think of how many
people are behind the eight ball because the government said they had to do something.
Everyone else is getting bailed out, but you're not because you don't have a special CDC category.
I know a lot of people.
This is screwing and creating,
what was it called in the 1930s, Studio?
You remember it was like the invisible man or it was
the forgotten man.
The forgotten man.
We are creating the forgotten man.
In fact, play the audio that we had from the lieutenant governor today when he made this viral video.
This guy was just a worker in a factory, on a factory floor.
He went to Greensboro to the city council because they were talking about, you know, what are we going to do to restrict guns?
And he just started, he just gave this speech.
Now he's not a factory worker anymore.
Now he's the lieutenant governor.
He was just elected.
But listen to this because he talks about the forgotten man.
What I really came down here for is this.
I've heard heard a whole lot of people in here talking tonight about this group and that group and domestic violence and blacks, these minorities, and that minority.
What I want to know is, when are you all going to start standing up for the majority?
And here's who the majority is.
I'm the majority.
I'm a law-abiding citizen who's never shot anybody, never committed a serious crime, never committed a felony.
I've never done anything like that.
But it seems like every time we have one of these shootings, nobody wants to blame, put the blame where it goes, which is at the shooter's feet.
You want to put it at my feet.
You want to turn around and restrict my right,
constitutional right that's spelled out in black and white.
You want to restrict my right to buy a firearm and protect myself from some of the very people you're talking about in here tonight.
It's ridiculous.
I don't think Rod Serling could come up with a better script.
It does not make any sense.
The law-abiding citizens of this community and many communities around this country, we're the first ones taxed and the last ones considered and the first ones punished when things like this happens because our rights are the ones that are being taken away.
That's the reason why I came down here today, gun show or no gun show, NRA or no NRA.
I'm here to stand up for the law-abiding citizens of this community because I'm going to tell you that what's going to happen.
You can take the guns away from us all you want to.
You all write a law, I follow the law.
I'll bring my guns down here.
I'll turn them in.
But here's what's going to happen.
The Crips and the Bloods on the other side of town, they're not going to turn their guns in.
They're going to hold on to them.
And what's going to happen when you have to send the police down there to go take them?
The police can barely enforce the law as it is.
It's what I see.
We demonize the police, criminalize and vilify the police, and we make the criminals into victims.
And we're talking about restricting guns?
How are you going to do that?
How are you going to to do that when the police department's already hamstrung?
You're not going to be able to go down here and take these guns from these criminals.
So the criminals are going to hold on to their guns.
They're still going to have them.
They're still going to break in my house and they're still going to shoot me with them.
And guess who's going to be the one that suffers?
It's going to be me.
Well, I'm here to tell you tonight.
It is not going to happen without a fight.
And when I say fight, I don't mean shots fired.
I don't mean fists thrown.
I mean I'm going to come down here to this city council and raise hell just like these loonies from the left do until you listen to the majority of the people in this city.
And I am the majority.
This guy is fantastic.
Awesome.
Fantastic.
How did we miss his election?
His rise from factory worker there two years ago to now the lieutenant governor of North Carolina.
The guy is fantastic.
Not only is that.
What he's saying is exactly right.
Yes.
Yes.
I mean, it could have been possibly the global pandemic and
everything else going on.
We did miss it though, because I'm sure people in North Carolina are like, yeah, we were watching this closely.
But I will also say, looking at the North Carolina results, not only did Mark Robinson outperform the Republican gubernatorial candidate, but also outperformed Donald Trump in North Carolina.
I mean, you know,
the left has got to be terrified of this guy.
This is like their worst nightmare.
A guy who could speak plainly, who's smart, who knows what he's talking about, who knows his rights.
This is the type of candidate that is going to
be shot.
And he's black.
And he's black.
And the Democratic
governor was talking about how you just can't make it.
It is
a state of the state speech, I think, last week.
You know, you just can't make it because
of just this systemic racism.
You're just not going to be able to make it.
Standing right beside him was the new lieutenant governor who was a factory worker two years ago and i talked to him about it and he was like i know i mean it and he didn't mention him at all it's a historic thing but he didn't mention him at all because it goes to prove everything you're saying governor is a lie Is this, though, does he really count as an African-American Glenn?
No, he doesn't.
And he likes guns.
It's the way they treat him.
I mean, I know.
Oh, I know.
If you don't align with these views, you lose your color.
I know.
Here's the thing.
Here's what's coming.
And
here's how I know it's true.
What's coming is the forgotten man of every color.
The people who are law-abiding citizens, they are going to find themselves under the screws of almost everybody because of inflation, because of jobs, because of the new ESG, the great reset.
They feel like they haven't been listened to and they eventually are going to rise up and that is exactly what they want.
And how do I know that?
Well, that's why they're dismantling the police right now.
They want strife and they want chaos.
That's what they need.
So the last thing we should do is to play into chaos.
But they are coming after our police.
They're coming after the people that might agree with the forgotten man in the military.
And they are grabbing control of these.
That's why they want to federalize the police.
Because if they can do that, they have America by the throat.
By the throat.
Support your local police.
Support your local sheriff's department.
Really, really important.
And never ever forget, you're not alone.
You're not the only one that feels this way you're you are in the majority
we just keep quiet and that's got to stop
American Financing NMLS 1-82334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
Sarah, who just wrote in to us, said that she
heard about American Financing through the Blaze and decided to give them a try.
She told me they are fantastic.
We were assigned a whole team to take care of us.
They were amazingly helpful.
Great communication all around.
And above that, we got a great interest rate to boot.
2.75.
Thank you so much.
Boy, Sarah, you're welcome.
All I did was pass on the information of these people.
They're a family-run, owned, and operated business.
They've been in business, you know, I don't know, since before the great crash.
Their customers weathered those storms because they don't work for the bank.
So they weren't high pressuring anybody to get into a really super, super loan that you couldn't really afford.
That's why I do business with them is because I've watched them for years.
It's American financing.
American financing can help you with a new mortgage, getting your interest rate to the lowest.
They can help you refi to change your interest rate and get it to the lowest.
They can also help you get out of all of the high-interest credit card debt by rolling them into your mortgage without resetting your mortgage.
It's American Financing.
Spend 10 minutes to see if they can help you out.
American Financing, the number is 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

Oh boy.
Hey, before we get too far down the week,
did you see that picture from the Carter Center?
Do we have the original picture from the Carter Center with Jill and Joe Biden and the Carters?
Yeah, there it is.
If you look at that, I know this went around and it became a meme for a lot of things, but we're a much more serious program, and we look at these scientifically.
It looks almost as though Joe Biden is so big that Mrs.
Carter is like a ventriloquist puppy, a puppet.
Yeah.
Right?
It does.
I mean, she looks teeny, and he looks huge.
And it's interesting to see that the only time the Bidens aren't wearing masks is when they're around really frail old people.
But maybe that's just me.
And we were talking about how huge they were.
And the problem is you don't have any perspective.
I mean, you just assume that you know everything is as it is.
And
so we decided, I said, let's put something that everybody knows into that scene so we can have some perspective to see how small the Carters are or how big the Bidens are.
And so we took Andre the Giant, and it was shocking.
If you're watching the plays, you'll tweet this out for you.
Yeah.
Wait, so isn't that amazing?
The Carters actually aren't small at all.
No.
They're actually quite large.
Yeah, because you'll see, I mean, Andre the Giant, right after this picture was taken, he popped up onto the lap of Mrs.
Carter.
And they are enormous.
They're enormous in real life.
And the Biden's even bigger.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bidens are
gigantic.
They're monsters.
They're monsters in almost every way.
I'm sorry.
Dr.
Monsters.
Dr.
Monsters.
Dr.
Monsters, yes.
Dr.
Moss.
That is really one of the strangest photos I've ever seen in my life.
It really, I know sometimes perspective can play with the way things look, but like it, they, both of the Carters look like they're three foot one.
Yeah.
Or the Bidens look like they're 11 feet tall, one of the two.
Right, right.
It looks like almost like they're in like, you know,
play furniture.
You know what I mean?
Like in a kid's room.
Yeah.
And they're kids.
They just, I mean, have they
have they gotten that?
So I know people when they get old get smaller, but that, not that small, right?
And especially once you put Andre the Giant into that picture, it is remarkable.
It's remarkable.
I don't know what's going on with the Carters, but I know when you start to head towards massive inflation, the thing that you want to do is take pictures with the president that is known most for inflation and stagflation.
It's good for your numbers, Joe.
Good for your numbers.

And I said, that's the way I cook them out all the time.
Absolutely.
I don't know what it is.
But until I got a RekTech, I couldn't cook anything outside because I just don't, I don't have that skill.
The RekTech has that skill.
It's a fantastic built to last, I mean, after the nuclear winter.

Welcome to Thursday.
We have a dear friend joining us now, really talented filmmaker, a guy who everybody says, you got to get into culture.
He's actually doing it and making a big impact.
He has changed Swedish immigration policy, U.S.
trade policy, education policy here in the country.
He has been on ships, you know, tracking down jihadist pirates.
I think he's a lunatic, but he's actually really, really smart and on our side.
And he's just put a new video out.
I'm going to play about a minute of it, but this is, I'll tell you where to get it here in a second.
This is worth watching and reposting and spreading in your network.
It is Ami Horowitz on the streets of New York talking about the rich paying their fair share.
So do you think that the poor pay a higher percentage of their income?
Yes.
Or the rich?
They do pay.
I've seen that.
The poor.
Yeah, they do, yeah.
Oh, the lower class, definitely.
Pay more.
Yeah, lower income people.
Poor people.
The 1% earn about 25% of all the income in America.
So there you go.
If we're talking about fair share,
then
if you're bringing in 25% of the income, 25% of the taxes should also
income.
Yeah, I would seem so, yeah.
And would you be surprised if I told you that the top 1% pay 40% of all taxes?
Would it surprise you if I said the rich, the 1%,
pay 40% of all taxes in America?
Interesting.
What surprised me?
Yeah, here they are.
Yeah.
Really interesting.
So a little more fair than you might have thought.
Yeah.
What percent of income do you think the top 1% pay?
I think they're paying like freaking 2% of that.
They're paying 27%.
What?
27%.
Ami Horowitz, welcome to the program.
Amazing.
It's
a pleasure.
And by the way, such a wonderful pleasure to be in a town where I don't have to wear a mask and get people yelling at me and screaming at me and mask shaming me.
That is awesome.
Yeah.
Texas is a pretty awesome place to live.
I can't imagine what it's like in New York.
I was up in Connecticut a few weeks ago.
We had a death in the family, and I had to go up to Connecticut, and it was like a
thought Elon Musk had drugged me, put me into a spaceship, and he had already populated Mars, and it looked like Connecticut, but it was completely Martian.
The people there, it's a mental illness now.
It's absolutely become mental illness.
There's no question about it.
I mean, look, most of these people are vaccinated, but they will wear -
you will see them running in the park wearing masks.
I saw a guy riding a horse wearing a mask.
Okay.
I'm surprised he didn't put a mask on the horse.
I would just like to point out,
I've seen a lot of things in New York,
but exception of a cop, I've never seen anybody riding a horse in New York.
No,
there are horses in Central Park.
Yes, you can ride a horse.
You can ride a horse in Central Park.
That's true.
You can ride a horse in Central Park.
I mean, you rent it there, or do you have to bring your own horse?
They used to have these stables right off of Central Park.
They've now kind of changed them, but they still have horses that you could rent out.
They don't really ride.
They're just walking.
Yeah, because they're probably beating it.
They're like, I can't live in this city one more day.
I just can't do it.
I just can't do it.
Where's the glue factory, man?
Right.
So you were on the streets of New York, and I mean, one of the guys that you were talking to was full-fledged Marxist.
Oh, yeah.
And what was, what was shocking about this was
how certain all of them were about facts that were completely untrue and then
surprised, but not like embarrassed that they had it so wrong.
You know, I actually, a lot of my videos are,
look, they're important, but they're dark because because they're just they're i'm showing the underbelly of the left right and what they actually believe this video is a little more hopeful because as as certain as they were about faultly faulty facts about taxes uh which by the way this is this is if you ask anybody on the left right they would they would say the same thing that these people on the video saw of course the rich pay more of course the rich don't pay i mean the the the poor pay more and the rich don't pay their fair share but the hopeful part of this video was when they were confronted with the facts, with the actual reality of what tax policy is, they reversed themselves and they said, that actually does sound fair, right?
And this is, and it's a hopeful video in the sense that we are right on the facts, okay?
We are right on the facts.
And if we're able to get that out there, we could win this argument because let me tell you, easily, the class warfare issue is going to be the battle.
It's not going to be the race issue.
And the race issue is really when I spend a lot of time with BLM protesters, I start scratching the surface and presenting them with the facts, right, about how many people were actually killed on armed by black people by white police officers.
Right, right, right.
They will accept that and poo-poo it, and then it'll switch to a class issue.
Because ultimately, what is critical race theory?
Critical race theory is simply a slight deviation from class theory of Marx.
You have something, or you don't have something because this other class that happens to be white has it.
Right.
And the real battle is not going to be race.
It's going to be class.
And there is, you know, the studies have showed over and over again that a significant portion of youth in this country want communism.
Not social democrat, not to be social democrats like the Europeans.
I'm talking about straight up Marxism, communism, the destruction of the free market.
It is not quite a majority or a polarity, but it's getting there.
It's over 20%, 25%.
I'll tell you this, Ami.
You can see it,
You can see people being able to rationalize it at some point as well because the government has been so corrupt.
They have done so much with, you know, in the last year, we've spent $19 trillion.
Where's that money?
That's not going to the average person.
That is going to giant corporations.
It's going to graft.
I mean, it's...
No one is actually feeling the impact of that.
And when you start to see real inflation, you will look at the bank and go, you got all of that money from 2008.
I got nothing.
I got nothing.
And you're going to start looking at these companies that are now lecturing us, Coca-Cola, on how we have to live our life, et cetera, et cetera, and what's good and what's bad.
And you're just going to look at all of these people and say,
you are my enemy.
You are my enemy.
And you'll put all people in that category, just like we do now.
If you're a conservative, you're evil.
If you're a liberal, you're a Marxist.
It's not true, but that's the way human nature does it.
And Marxism encourages it.
Yeah, look,
there's no question.
I think that
the lack of understanding.
I guess Joe Biden must have gotten a tour of the Treasury building and he goes, wait a second, we own the printing press?
I can just print as much money as I want.
What?
I mean, that's what it must have been like, right?
What do we have?
$10 trillion in new spending?
Trillion, $10 trillion.
And that's your point.
The point is no regular person is going to feel that because our economy is too big.
The country's too big.
And even those kind of numbers don't really have an impact.
And yes, and most of that money end up going through fraud and waste.
And they're going to say, well,
what happened?
What happened to this money that we sent?
And then when, of course, when the bill comes due and inflation hits, right?
And then they're really going to feel it.
And that's where they're going to say, what happened here?
It is the
biggest
theft ever.
And we've gone through somewhat.
We've gone through some of this before.
Not,
you know,
Marx believed that capitalism was evil and twisted and
was exactly what it has now become.
And
so his idea of people rising up against the upper class is accurate if you are
like the upper class appears to be.
And not all upper class, I mean the institutionalized upper class is
they are getting benefits that no one else is seeing.
And we've gone through it before.
I was with Jay Leno at his garage a few years ago, and he has this beautiful Bugatti.
It's this big old 1929 Bugatti.
And my son son ran up to it.
He was little and I think he had peanut butter on his hands.
And I'm like, don't do it.
And Jay was like, nah, go on, sit in.
That's what it's for.
I mean, it was really crazy.
But as he was in touching everything and leaving jam prints over this Bugatti,
I said to Jay,
what a beautiful car.
And he said, better story behind it than it is beautiful.
He said, that car was purchased in 1929 in New York by a guy who was head of an industry.
He said
he never drew it, never drove it.
By the time he got it, it was too dangerous for him to be seen in the Bugatti.
He said that car ended up,
they took it apart and they used it as a truck.
They just completely took this amazing car away and used it as a truck because every time that car would be seen, it was class warfare.
And you're a bad guy because you have that car.
And by the way,
today you're dressed like Jay as well.
There's a lot of denim going on.
You're right.
But there is a lot of denim going on.
Nothing scares the white hair.
That's right.
Nothing scares me more than class warfare.
Look, when you go to Europe,
one of the many differences between Europeans and us is that the Europeans are jealous of people in the upper class.
If you have a beautiful car in London or
in Paris, oftentimes friends of mine who have those kind of cars, they get keyed because people are so disgusted that they have that kind of wealth in Idaho.
And here, this country, what's so beautiful about it is we're aspirational.
We look at people with beautiful cars and you're thinking is not, I need that, why does he have that car and not me?
You think, I want that car.
I'm going to do what it takes to get that car or that house or whatever it is.
And we are losing that beautiful, aspirational part of our country because the left has engaged us in this damaging class warfare, which I can't repeat it enough.
It will be the battle for the next 10 years for the soul of this country more than any other issue that we're facing.
It's the class warfare issue that will either sink us or will take us ahead for the next hundred years.
So I want to take a break and come back, and I want you to answer this question when we come back.
Do we make it 10 years?
Do we have enough in our tank?
Do we have enough
tools and enough people that understand those tools to be able to put up a fight and to win this fight, especially when everything seems to be going in the other direction?
Have you answer that when we come back?

You can sponsor him for pennies a day.
Well, maybe not pennies.
You know what you could do is just give to that cyber criminal by doing nothing to protect all of the information that you just dump online every single day.
Because cyber criminals are people too.
They have kids to feed or kids to sell.

They'll send you an alert.
Plus, you have access to a dedicated restoration specialist if you become a victim.
And they have that, which most don't.

The Glen Beck Program.
Three minutes.
This is the Glenbeck program.
We welcome back to the program Ami Horowitz, who a lot of people do man on the street stuff.
I believe he is by far the best at this.
He gets people to talk and engage, and nobody feels stupid in the end.
And you gain some real understanding.
And they're great to share with people, especially on the other side.
Ami, welcome back.
Always a pleasure.
Thanks for having me.
So
let's talk a little bit about
the whole idea of there will be an America that we all recognize in 10 years.
Yeah, there will be.
In 10 years, for sure.
100%.
There's so much gas in the tank from over the past few decades of success that they'll carry us for a decade or two.
Having said that, it's the next 10 years which will decide the fate for the next hundred years.
We'll know the answer in 10 years.
We'll know the direction the country is going in 10 years.
Of that, I have no doubt.
In which direction we will go, it is up in the air and is up to us to fight for us to win that
ideological battle.
We know which direction the
Biden administration is going to take us.
And that is into a whole new
kind of ⁇ I mean, they're talking about resetting and doing, you know, know, getting rid of capitalism and into stakeholder capitalism, which is not capitalism.
It's an oligarchy.
So we know that they are on this path right now.
And that, I mean, I think they've got a short time period to pull that off.
They've got about two years, unless they completely destroyed the election process by then.
Yeah, one of the most insidious parts of the left is their changing of the language, right?
They're denuding of power from words, like racism is a meaningless word now, right?
And one of the things they've done, and if you've noticed it, that the word that the left used most often was equality, right?
That was the buzzword.
And what have they changed it to?
You're so right.
Equity.
Equity.
Equity.
And what does that mean?
There's a very specific meaning to their version of the word equity, which means ownership.
And what it means is we have to get equal outcomes, right?
What was equality, equal opportunity.
That is a disgusting notion to them now.
Now they want equal outcome, and that's what equity gives them.
Well,
I'd love to invite you back tomorrow because you understand the mind of the left probably better than anybody else.
And
I'd like to
peer into that mind.
Ooh, it's a dark mind.
It's a dark place.
Also, Bill O'Reilly will be joining us tomorrow, our Friday episode, You Don't Want to Miss It.
And Jordan Peterson today on the podcast.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
