This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

It's Thursday.

Last night, the President gave finally

his

kind of State of the Union, his plan for America.

You know, it's only about 100 days late, but, you know, who's counting days?

Oh, he is.

But anyway,

he's coming in, and all I want you to know is I need you to think like, I think his name was Admiral Akbar.

I need you to think like him.

It's a trap.

And

I think everybody's analysis that I have heard on

the speech last night, very good, but they are missing a critical, critical point.

It's a trap.

I will explain in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck Program.

So, Diana wrote in.

She said she wanted us to know about her experience with American financing.

She said, I worked with Cindy, who was amazing from beginning to end.

She guided me through the entire process from getting qualified for a loan to the closing.

She was attentive, always followed up regarding the statutes of the loan, the documentation needed.

She was prompt in returning phone calls and emails.

Cindy was a team player, collaborated with my realtor,

the little company and the seller in order just to stay on track and on top.

I can't thank you enough for recommending American Financing.

I would

100% recommend her and American Financing to anybody who is trying to buy a house.

Thank you, Cindy.

Thank you, American Financing.

When you pick up the phone and call American Financing, you're making a decision that will positively affect you, your family's life, and your budget.

If you are looking to finance a house, to refi your loan, to consolidate a loan,

please, these people do not work for the banks, they work for you.

You can trust American Financing.

Go to AmericanFinancing.net.

That's Americanfinancing.net or call them at 800-906-2440.

It's a trap.

What the heck does that mean?

What does that mean?

Last night, if you watched Biden's speech and you knew what you were looking for, it was a carefully crafted speech.

In some regards, a little schizophrenic.

We are a nation that, if I can quote,

has had the plague

on America of systematic racism, and yet we're the greatest country in the world.

I mean, the speech writer, I heard that he went to his psychiatrist the other day and said, you know, I'm hearing voices.

And his psychiatrist said, you don't have a psychiatrist.

So it's a little schizophrenic,

but it was only schizophrenic because they were saying the things that people want to hear and then saying the things they have to say to be able to have a complete storyline in the end.

This is probably the most important speech a president has given,

and it's the biggest warning any progressive, Marxist, anyone who wants to thwart America has ever given.

I need you to pay attention to this speech today.

If you want to be prepared for what's coming, you have to pay attention to this speech, but in a different way.

There are four things that he set up.

And I'll go through them.

First, white supremacy is a plague, and it is the biggest danger.

In fact, he said white supremacists are the most lethal threat to America.

How do you define a white supremacist?

Anyone who denies that there is

some sort of, you know, white indoctrination and,

you know, systematic racism.

If you deny those things, you are a racist, a white supremacist.

And so that is a threat.

Second thing,

he's questioning whether our democracy works.

He wants it to work.

He wants it to work.

But he's not sure if it does.

Third, China is the threat and the model.

And they are not waiting around.

Four,

we have to act now

or our system doesn't work.

Now let me go through this.

First, if you're a white supremacist, you believe in the Republic.

You believe in

the

system of merit, that we should be judged not by our skin color, but by the content of our character.

You believe in the founding documents.

You believe that the amendments are absolute.

Those rights are absolute.

They come from God, not the government.

That is going to be more and more defined as a white supremacist.

Now, when he said our democracy doesn't work,

you have to understand what he told the press before the speech.

CNN reported, and I'm going to quote the president, CNN reported that

before the speech, President Biden got together with a few of the

elite media and had a conversation with them.

This is so Woodrow Wilson,

it's terrifying to me.

You know, if you've listened to me for any time, I hate Woodrow Wilson.

Woodrow Wilson was a racist and a...

absolute danger to the Republic.

He's the guy that really started this this ball rolling, and it was the final move, the final chess pieces are being put onto the table right now.

So he met with the trusted news sources, and they do that so they can bring them in and so they can explain it to the dumb American people.

Now, here's what he said according to CNN, and I quote,

And I really believe, because I've spoken with over, I guess, 25, 30 heads of state, including Putin including President Z

I had a two-hour conversation with President Z

and I've been convinced for a long time

dot dot dot

look I doubt whether most of you would agree with me but I think we're going to

look they're going to write about this point in history Not about any of us here, but about whether democracy can function in the 21st century.

What is he saying here?

He's saying a lot.

I've been convinced for a lot, a long time.

Convinced of what?

He stops.

He never finishes that.

Then he says, I doubt whether most of you would agree with me.

About what?

That they're going to write about this point in history.

Not about any of us here, but whether or not democracy can function in the 21st century.

I would agree with that.

Who wouldn't agree with that?

The historians are going to look back at this time and say, that's what was being decided.

That's not controversial.

What's controversial is what he didn't finish.

I've been convinced for a long time.

He says they're going to write about us, not about us here, but whether or not democracy can function in the 21st century.

Then he says, not a joke.

Whether autocracy is the answer.

They were my discussions and debates that I've had many times that I've met with President Z.

Think about it.

You know, things are moving so damn rapidly.

Things are changing so rapidly in the world, in science and technology, and a whole range of other issues, that the question is, in a democracy

that such a genius as ours, can you get a consensus in the time frame that can compete with autocracy?

This tells you everything you need to know.

He and his people do not agree.

Neither did Woodrow Wilson.

Neither did Mussolini.

Neither did Hitler.

Neither did Stalin.

Neither did the New York Times.

Back in the 1930s, this was exactly the conversation.

And it started really with Wilson.

Science was happening.

Things were moving quickly.

If we go to war, can we build a war machine fast enough?

We need to have an autocracy because they can say, everybody make bullets.

We're we're going to war.

So that's centralized and it's directed by the government.

So you can change on a dime.

But that's not our system.

By the way, we were never going to be able to catch up with Germany.

In 1941, we were so far away from being prepared for that war, especially against Germany, which had the best planes, the best tanks, the best of everything.

By 1944,

the American free market kicked its ass.

So this is not a new idea.

So what is he saying?

He is setting up before the speech, I think we all should question our democracy.

Then in the speech, he sets the trap.

He's saying people are questioning.

He's not saying him.

He's saying people are questioning all around the world.

Can a democracy work?

So that's the framework of the speech.

So every time that he said, you'll notice he said it a lot, the world won't wait.

We've got to make these changes now.

Quoting, I'd like to meet with those who have ideas that are different, I think, and that they think are better.

I welcome those ideas.

But the rest of the world is not waiting for us.

I want to be clear.

Doing nothing is not an option.

We can't be so busy competing with one another that we forget that the competition we have here is the rest of the world to win the 21st century.

Then he goes in another time.

I've traveled with President Z, blah, blah, blah.

He's deadly earnest about becoming the most significant consequential nation in the world.

He and others, the autocrats, think democracy can't compete.

Then he later says, the world is caught up or catching up.

They're not waiting.

I would say if we are sitting down and putting a bipartisan committee together and we said, okay, we have to now decide what we're going to do in terms of government providing free education, I wonder what we'd think.

Well, we wouldn't have that conversation under a republic.

A constitutional republic, you don't have that conversation.

He also started the first 14 minutes.

I can't tell you how many times.

Go back and watch it if you can.

He kept saying that it was the people in that room.

You made the difference.

You are saving lives.

You are the reason we are getting past COVID.

You are the reason why our economy is coming back.

Not the American people,

but Congress.

He said over and over again, we have to have the courage to act now.

We can't.

wait.

He made it very clear, China is the threat

and the possible model if we can't get our crap together.

The fourth thing was we have to change

and we are competing, so we have to act right now.

And I want this to happen, but we got to act right now because the world won't wait.

The whole theme of this was crisis and opportunity.

That's how he started it.

Crisis and opportunity.

So let me tell you what's going to happen.

Give me a one-minute break, and then I'll come back and tell you how this is a trap and how it's all going to play out in the playbook.

There are very few times that I'm on the air

and I just know, I know it's right.

I'm telling you, I know this is right.

I know this is right.

Please pay attention to this.

I'll tell you how it's going to play out here in just a second.

Dan lives in New York.

Sorry about that.

He's a semi-professional bodybuilder.

That's so weird, Dan, me too.

Dan's been suffering from shoulder pain for quite a while due to an injury he sustained while lifting weights.

I know, brother.

Tell me about it.

It was bad enough that he and his doctor were talking about him getting a shoulder replacement.

But he kept hearing me talk about Relief Factor on the radio, began to wonder if it was possible that that could help him.

He wasn't especially hopeful, but the prospect of

a shoulder replacement really didn't sound very fun.

He literally had nothing to lose, everything in the world to gain.

So, within a couple of weeks after beginning to take it, he said the pain went away.

His mobility began to return.

Dan got his life back.

Dan, I can't tell you how happy I am for you sincerely.

I know what it's like.

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

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

You'll know within three weeks.

So, try their three-week trial pack.

If it's not working, don't order it anymore.

But if it is, your life will change.

10 seconds station ID.

Okay,

so this is what's happening.

I need you to understand, the first thing he said was, this is a crisis and an opportunity.

The opportunity is to change, to transform.

He then spent an hour making the case on why we need to transform, because the world has changed.

All of that is true.

But he's not questioning.

But people are questioning whether democracy can make it in the 21st century.

And so he laid down a challenge.

Now, he didn't say it this way, but if you go back and read the speech, you will see it clearly is implied all the way through.

What he's saying is, our democracy doesn't work because it's too slow.

And so we have all of these things.

We have the chance right now to heal our country from white supremacy.

And all we have to do is pass this bill right now.

Put it on my desk.

Let me sign it.

But do it now.

We have the chance to heal our wounded economy, but the only way to do it is to pass this $2 trillion bill, and you've got to do it right now because the world's not going to wait.

The world is going to pass us.

So when these things are slowed down, when these things are

not passing, or they're not passing in a bipartisan fashion, which they will not,

and not because they're playing political games, but because these things are dangerous and deadly.

It's poison.

It's poison.

He will then make the case: this doesn't work.

That's why we need to have the Supreme Court reformed.

If there's any obstacle in slowing these things down, that will be the case.

The world will not wait.

We're going to be passed.

It's too slow.

It doesn't work.

It's why they will pass the.

Remember what he said a few weeks ago?

It's all about timing.

It's all about timing.

So when he says we have to pass, you know, the filibuster, he's not there.

He's not there.

He's still looking at it.

He's got some people looking into that.

What he's waiting for is something, maybe two or three things not to pass that he says are really important.

And when they don't pass because of Republicans, that's when he will go after the filibuster.

And he will make the case that democracy the way we have it is too slow.

Our Constitution is built to slow Washington down because they know a fast government can take rights away from people at the blink of an eye.

And we know that to be true because of COVID.

All of these things that he outlined last night,

basically,

it's this.

If you believe in the Republic, you are a threat to the nation, and we will

find you and stop you.

The implication here is because I'm not a white supremacist.

I don't believe in white supremacy.

I don't like white supremacists.

I don't know any, but I think they're a real danger.

But that's not what he's talking about.

I wish he were talking about that, but that's not the biggest threat to our democracy.

There's what?

Let's be generous.

5,000, 10,000, 100,000 of them?

That's the biggest threat our democracy has ever seen?

That's ridiculous.

You and I both know it.

So the implied threat is you get on the bandwagon or you will be hunted by us.

Second thing,

when we pass these things, it's a trap.

You will work for the government.

The government will allow you to create a union so you'll have a good-paying union job.

The government will then direct through a public-private partnership what you're going to be doing.

Oh, and by the way, what you're going to be doing is changing every house in America.

We're going to go and rebuild

those bad water lines in 400 schools, and that's going to change the world.

Then, as a gift also to the labor unions, our children are going to go to school for two to four more years.

That has nothing to do with our kids.

That has everything to do with the labor unions and indoctrination.

So your kids will be indoctrinated

by this labor union.

You will be working for the government and you will be silenced if you don't agree.

And anyone who stands in the way congressionally

through the court system, we will take action against it because the world won't wait.

We're at a critical point.

Well, we are at a critical point.

And this is the point we decide whether we are going to be free or not.

I would put my money on the table and never bet against a free America, the entrepreneur and the spirit of America.

I would never bet against that, especially against any autocratic rule.

It might look bad for a time, but if we are free and the government is out of our way, there is nothing we can't accomplish.

This is the Glenback Program.

Thomas Massey is coming up in just a second.

Ira lives in Virginia.

She wrote in about her dog, Shiloh.

She says, the day the trial package came, I put some in my hand and offered it to Shiloh.

He licked it clean.

Ever since, he's been very anxious about mealtime.

When I mix it in, his kibble, he stands up and begs for his bowl.

He was always a picky eater before, but not anymore.

He has more energy, wants to play more often.

Rough greens is such great stuff.

Thank you so much.

Rough greens, not a dog food, but something you put on your dog's food, full of antioxidants, probiotics, all these things.

They're going to send you a free bag.

You just have to pay for the shipping.

You get a free bag just to see if your dog is like Shiloh or like Uno and will eat this.

If they eat it, if they like it, I'm telling you, it changes them.

Not especially picky eaters.

They will run to the bowl and they will start to eat their food.

And you don't have to stand around and watch them or coax them into it.

They'll love it.

And then, month after month, you'll see big changes in your dog.

So get the free bag of Rough Greens and just try it out.

It's rufffgreens.com/slash Beck.

Just make sure they'll eat it.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

We want to bring on Thomas Massey.

He is the congressman from from Northern Kentucky.

He is somebody who went to MIT,

has a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, master's degree in mechanical engineering.

While he was in school, he invented technology that

just is in use everywhere now.

He's got like 29 different patents.

The guy is really, really brilliant, knows what's on the horizon, knows the threats that losing our place with technology will

cause,

and watch the speech last night.

Thomas Massey, welcome to the program.

How are you, sir?

I'm doing well, Glenn.

I used to work in artificial intelligence and virtual reality, and now I'm in Congress working in artificial intelligence and virtual reality.

It is crazy, isn't it?

It is crazy.

It was the most

schizophrenic speech I've ever heard.

We have systematic racism all throughout our justice system, but the cops, vast majority, are great and they have nothing to do with it.

Wait, what?

It's a great country, but we've got to change it fundamentally.

I mean, it was a schizophrenic speech.

Yeah, so speaking of schizophrenia, he blamed China for subsidizing their private companies and being in bed with government, yet that's what he's proposing to do with all of these programs.

Let's start with the virtual reality here.

It was high theater.

If you looked at the room, they had five seats at least between every member.

But I fly back and forth from Congress with these members.

They sit shoulder to shoulder on the airplanes with everybody else that the planes are packing today.

They spend more time on the airplane than they did in that room.

And you know, everybody in that room has either been vaccinated, acquired immunity through infection, or wearing a freaking mask.

Thomas, Thomas,

I watched the pre-feed.

So I got the network feed 45 minutes early.

So I'm watching them all come into the room.

They're all hugging each other.

They're all kissing through the masks.

They're standing right next to each other.

There was no social distancing until the network started their coverage.

Then everybody went to their positions.

It was high theater.

You're absolutely right.

And I've been on the floor.

It's not within the rules for me to take a picture, but I might have done that.

I'm not saying I did, but I might have pictures of Democrats hugging each other in large groups on the floor of the House.

Meanwhile, Pelosi will sue you if you don't wear a mask.

But

that's the theater.

Here's another thing, Glenn, speaking of the schizophrenia.

He said 650 billionaires in America saw their net worth increase by more than a trillion dollars during the pandemic.

Well, that's what I said was going to happen back at March 27th of not this year, but last year when they passed the first $2 trillion bill.

And I'm not singling out Joe Biden.

I'm singling out everybody in D.C.

who wouldn't stand up and even vote on the freaking bill.

Remember, I was the guy CNN called the most hated man in Washington, D.C.

That's probably the first and last time they ever got a headline right.

And I was hated for simply saying we need to vote on it and we need to read the bill.

That was the first $2 trillion.

We've spent $6 trillion.

I said these little checks, and I know they're consequential, but they're little in comparison to the amount of money that was spent.

That's the cheese in the trap.

These $2 trillion bills are the biggest wealth transfer from the middle class to the upper class in the history of mankind.

And you're not even talking about the $6 trillion that the Fed has just printed or digitized and given to the banks.

$6 trillion in the last 12 months.

He had to go from $10 minimum wage to $15 minimum wage because that's how much they've devalued the dollar in a year.

So inflation.

What was the thing, Thomas, that stuck out to you the most?

What is the thing that you think people are missing?

What's the clarion call here on this?

Well, the biggest thing is he's not a moderate.

If you had any hopes of him governing as a moderate, you can disabuse yourself of that notion.

He is full hardcore left.

He promoted every one of Nancy Pelosi's bills, which, by the way, were crafted by the most radical left elements of her party that have passed the House of Representatives.

They're all, you know, them by their number.

They're HR less than 10, I call them.

I never vote for HR less than 10.

Even when we're in the majority, those are usually pretty bad bills.

But there was HR1, which will fundamentally change elections and federalize them and make voter ID virtually impossible to implement.

There's HR 8, the gun control bill, all the other HR less than 10s, which are so radical.

When they pass the House, we say, yeah, they pass the House, but they'll never make it through the Senate.

But he's there pounding on the elector and say, send me these bills, I'll sign them.

Folks,

he's not anywhere near moderate, and he's a captive of the radical left within their party.

So, Thomas, we did the math yesterday.

One thing you didn't hear, and I've always heard this my whole life when you're watching the networks cover these things.

They would always say, you know, just on the back of the napkin, what I heard was this president suggested that we would spend an additional $481 billion.

Last night, just in the two packages he talked about, not everything else, just in the two packages, that's almost $5 trillion.

We have, in the last 12 months, spent and digitized $19 trillion if these two bills pass.

$19 trillion

in the last 12 months.

I'm not as good at math as you are

when he said, oh, this economy is going to turn around.

We are going to have a boom,

but it's going to be coupled with massive inflation at the same time, is it not?

Absolutely.

We're on a sugar high right now.

He said that the America Rescue Plan, we're already seeing the results of it.

And I say, yeah, if you want to see the results of it, go try to buy a sheet of plywood.

And you will see the results of the American Rescue Plan.

And by the way,

while we're talking numbers, $5 trillion

is about 20% of GDP.

Biden bragged that GDP is going to go up 6% this year.

Well, if you're spending 20%, if you're throwing out the money and you're spending 20%,

is it a miracle that it goes up 6%?

No, where'd the other 14% go?

When he was proposing this jobs plan and he said, you know, we've got to build America strong and we're going to fix our infrastructure.

And he talked about the lead pipes.

Okay, fine.

You know, that's bad.

We should have, you know, no lead in our water pipes, et cetera, et cetera.

But he said, these are good jobs.

No, they're not.

That is fixing 200 schools and, you know, colleges or whatever he said had the lead pipes.

And that's fixing those institutions that's not something that creates wealth or creates new jobs so how how are these jobs now directed by the government going to create new wealth

it's not going to then the checks are keeping people at home uh people are which is in turn

adding to inflation that's right because we can't restrict we can't get people to make things

used car prices are going up quickly

And the jobs he's talking about are tradespeople.

I put them on a higher plane than college graduates, frankly.

But

they're more scarce.

They're more scarce than college graduates.

They're more political science majors, I guarantee it, than there are plumbers and electricians.

And these are the kind of jobs that he's talking about.

But they're already, if you have that skill, you can go to work tomorrow.

Those folks are always in demand.

So he's, you know,

and what passes for infrastructure?

I'm on the Transportation Committee.

Okay.

I would, you know, this is one of my guilty things.

As a libertarian-leaning Republican, I actually believe government has a place in building the roads.

And so I said, put me on the transportation committee.

It's one of the few things we should be spending money on.

So I could be for an infrastructure bill.

Look, we spend $60 billion, $6.00 billion a year on roads and bridges at the federal level.

Yet we've spent $6 trillion.

Like the $60 billion that we've spent is

like less than 1% of the money that's gone out the door.

But that's about the ratio you're going to get on his infrastructure bill that's coming up.

They're calling everything infrastructure.

Could you change subject because you would be one guy that understands this?

Apple is saying that the price of their products are going to go up because of the chip shortage.

Ford just had a record-breaking quarter, but now they're saying that they are going to have to reduce the number of cars that they're building because of the chip shortage.

What is that caused by and what does that mean?

Well, in my pastime here, or as a hobby, I design electrical circuits.

And

I can tell you, you know, I used to, I did this 20 years ago, but as a hobby, I'm doing it now.

You have two choices when you buy chips now.

You can either buy Chinese-branded chips made in China, or you can buy American or Japanese-branded chips made in China.

Literally,

we don't have the capacity to

from chips, like whether it's a factory that makes chips or a factory that forges the castings for our machine tools.

There are certain fundamental capabilities that are critical to our economy, but also to our national defense.

We just don't have the capability

anymore.

this is where that's infrastructure that i would support give us you know help us build uh the infrastructure to be able to or make it easy by cutting regulations to build the things where we can be independent this is insanity in a world where chips run everything

we don't make them anymore

We don't make them anymore.

It's scary.

And the change in the last 20 or 30 years, years, you used to be able to buy a chip that was made in a foundry here in the United States, or you could buy one overseas, but the domestic option is not an option anymore.

You can buy a domestic brand that's made overseas.

Right.

That is it for 99.99% of these chips.

Okay, so tell me, why is this happening?

Is this just because of the COVID slowdown in shipping?

Is this intentional on China's part?

And what can we do?

I don't think it's intentional.

I think they had a small slowdown.

Hubei Province, Wuhan, that's where a lot of this activity actually is.

So they had a small slowdown there.

You had a kink in virtually every aspect of our own supply system here at the United States.

The chip manufacturers aren't going to keep making chips when you're not making the appliances that use those chips.

Correct.

So they slow down.

But now we're, you know, the appliance industry here in the United States is doing great.

They can't keep up with the demand of refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines.

Part of that's because everybody's staying home.

Part of that's because you just put, you know,

$1,500 in their hands per family member, $1,400.

So demand's going through the roof.

It's a sample.

It's like when a bridge, there's an accident on a bridge and traffic backs up and you realize how reliant you are on that bridge, how everything on both sides of the river shut down.

It's the same thing with this.

This is a wake-up call.

It's like the bridge got temporarily shut down.

We'll get over there.

It's not intentional on China's part.

But what do we do?

Right.

Is there anybody working on it?

I'm sorry, I'm up against the network break.

Is there anybody doing anything about it or that we can do about it?

Not to my knowledge.

Not to my knowledge.

Okay.

Thomas Massey, I have so much to talk to you.

Maybe we'll have you back on because I want to talk to you about the future of the Republican Party.

So maybe we can invite you to come back on with us.

I appreciate the you spent with us today.

So it's really, really comfortable, both indoor and outdoor.

These are a dad's dream.

My wife loves her MySlippers.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is coming up.

Last night in response to Tim Scott's rebuttal, here's NBC's Nicole Wallace.

And Operation Warp Speed didn't do anything to get a needle into an arm.

So a lot of disinformation.

It felt almost scripted by someone close to the president who wanted that revision of President Trump.

Correct.

Oh,

this is so frustrating.

No.

Operation Wart Speed didn't get a needle in an arm.

I invite people

today.

Take a moment and go search, and I know I wouldn't normally recommend this, but go search for 60 Minutes and an interview with General Gus Perna.

He is the guy, and this happened during the Trump administration, who is leading the effort for logistics on vaccine distribution.

Watch that clip, which is like 15 minutes.

It's worth it because he goes through the entire thing, how difficult it is, all the backup plans that they have put in place already, all of the problems they're predicting and trying

to deal with when the vaccine finally is done.

It's an entire logistics plan.

We put one of our best generals on it.

And here's the thing.

What's interesting about it is Gus Perna, the the general running this for the Trump administration he's doing all this and they have no plan whatsoever we're told by the media guess who's still running

the logistics operation for the vaccine general gus perna the same guy Trump put in charge is still doing it right now it's like one of the few people they held over in the middle of I think if I were

I think if I were Donald Trump my head would have popped last night just would have popped this is the Glennbach program well between the news appointment TV endless scrolling on our phones, we're looking at our screens, unfortunately, more than ever.

Hello, America, and welcome to Thursday.

Normally, it's Friday that we have Bill O'Reilly on, but I thought we would do it early this week because of the president's speech, Bill O'Reilly and everything you need to know

in 60 seconds.

Well,

ready or not, here comes the lawn mowing season.

Once again, your yard is going to start growing like

a weed.

You have to stay on top of it.

And I don't know how much time you spend mowing your lawn, but if you're spending a couple of hours, hour and a half mowing the lawn, we can cut that time in half with a zero-turn lawn mower from

Hustler.

Now, you can get zero-turn lawn mowers, you know, anywhere.

They're practically selling them at 7-Eleven now.

And I would highly recommend that you try out.

Go to Home Depot or wherever and try other lawnmowers out.

Then find a Hustler dealer and test drive one of those.

You will see the difference.

These are the people that invented the technology back in the 50s and 60s and perfected it.

And they've been making the professional lawnmowers for a long time that are meant to be, you know, used eight hours a day,

six days a week.

They're the ones that cut all the highway grass, etc., etc., and all of our football fields and parks.

Hustler turf has been around for a while.

Hustler Zero Turn Lawnmower has been around since the 1960s.

You will see the difference.

And it will cut your lawn in about half the time.

Hustlerturf.com.

Go there now, find a hustler dealer near you and test drive a hustler lawnmower.

There's just nothing like it.

Hustlerturf.com.

That's hustlerturf.com.

The new book that comes out, I think, next Tuesday from Bill O'Reilly is Killing the Mob, one of his best books yet, I think.

Killing the Mob, available now for pre-order at billorilly.com or wherever you buy your books.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly, welcome to the program, sir.

Back, thanks for having me in.

You know, I think what happened to President Biden last night, about eight minutes into the speech, is he segued into his Don Corleone voice.

Luca, my great friend, you know, that's what he said.

He does have that.

He does.

You know,

though, Bodzini, I didn't know until today it was Bodzini all along.

That's what happened.

He saw Godfather probably this week.

They're playing it every hour on the hour.

And he kind of just segued into his Don Corleone voice.

So, Bill, I would have to agree with you that it was the most boring speech.

I mean, it was relentlessly boring.

Oh, my God.

I think it was extraordinarily important what he said.

Well, I don't know about that.

I didn't learn anything from the speech.

Wow.

And I don't think that Americans understand the big picture and certainly right Joe Biden doesn't understand what he's doing I mean he didn't I think he does I think he does no I disagree 100%

he the reason I'm saying this is

that speech last night could have been written by Rod Serling the Twilight Zone guy yeah that's how unrealistic and

fantastical were to the day for Stew fantastical that speech was

you can't why do you say that

because the country owes 28 trillion dollars now all right

and they have to pay the united states and all of us who live here we have to pay interest on that debt to investors who bought uh bonds to foreign countries we have to pay it so biden comes up and last night alone

All his plans, I know you noticed this, there's a lot of plans, Beck.

There's plans.

Oh, yeah.

I mean, mean,

we have the family plan and the COVID relief plan, the infrastructure plan, the American jobs plans.

A lot of plans.

And the plans add up just last night to $6 trillion.

So I'm not a math whiz, but I'm going $28 trillion plus $6 is $34 trillion.

Okay.

So there are not enough wealthy people or evil corporations to even dent that.

You can't, I mean, he's going up there, oh, we're going to give you everything.

If you have a baby, we're going to pay for your babysitter.

That's what he actually said.

All right.

So child care is babysitting.

Feds are going to pay.

All right.

Universal child care.

What does that mean?

That means if you don't have a job and you just want to get rid of the little type for five or six hours a day, the feds are going to pay.

It's not necessary.

You're not going to be pied into, well, you've got to work.

No, it's universal

childcare.

Then pre-K, we're going to start our schooling at three years old.

We'll pay for all of that because we're going to have to build new schools with new teachers and new facilities because three-year-olds is a little tough going into the school when they don't even know their name.

Okay?

Then when you get through the public schooling, and by the way, when you get into the public school, the federal government is going to order, if you want block grant money, you to teach critical race theory.

And critical race theory is basically white people are bad.

All right.

Then you get through the school, and then we're going to pay for your community college.

Now, why you can't pay $3,000 or $4,000 for community college, I don't know, but Joe's going to do it.

So then it's like ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching.

It's never going to happen.

It's impossible financially and structurally.

But because of all that President Biden said, I have given him a new nickname, Beck, and I'm going to announce it on your program right now.

Are you ready?

I'm all attention.

This is with respect,

forever on.

President Biden should be known as.

You ready?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hang on, on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.

Don't say it yet.

Stu, have you

connected?

No, have you

alerted the press?

Have you alerted the press yet?

No.

I just want to make sure we have everybody

depth on my line.

Of course you do.

Of course.

Welcome to my world.

The nickname is now Joey Warbucks, cousin of Daddy Warbucks from Annie Fame.

Joey Warbucks, okay?

Hey, he's going to take out the big roll.

He's going to peel off a couple of tens.

Hey, here I am.

I'm Joey Warbucks.

So this is crazy.

And anyone with a modicum of intelligence or any political science background at all or any economic background, anybody would know.

So this is what amused me the most.

Right after

Joey Warbucks got off the stage, CBS took a snap poll of CBS viewers.

And guess what?

85% of them liked the speech.

Wow!

85% of CBS news viewers liked the speech.

That's like Fox News taking a poll after a Trump speech.

It's the same thing.

If you're not a Democrat leftist, you don't watch CBS news.

Doesn't anybody understand that?

So this whole thing to me, it is,

I'm going to revise my disagreement with you.

The speech was important because of the absurdity of it,

but it wasn't important in the sense that any of this is ever going to happen.

Let me make one more point.

And this is an important point.

At the end of the speech, Biden sneaks in a little border stuff.

All right?

That was not, the border and the race was played down in the speech.

Biden says to the American people, you know, when I was vice president, my boss, Barack Obama, put me in charge of Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, and the root causes of migration into the USA.

And I had that problem solved.

Me, Joe Biden, I did it.

But then Trump came in and wrecked it.

Remember that?

Mm-hmm.

You don't remember it, do you?

It was at the end when everybody was somnambulant, another word of the day.

Everybody was like, oh, please end this.

All right.

So he says that, that he, Joe Biden, solved the migration root cause.

In the eight years Barack Obama was president and Biden was vice president, they deported more human beings from the United States than any other administration combined.

But Joe solved it.

So we're at a point now in America, because of the corrupt press, where you can go on, if you're a politician, and say anything.

You can say,

Godzilla is going to come on Thursday.

So you better all, you know, hunkered down.

And it's fine.

If Godzilla doesn't show up, ah, so he didn't come.

He's late.

This is the country we're living in now, and it's a little frightening.

So I want to ask you a couple of things, because

what I picked up from the speech was that he's not, but other countries are questioning whether democracy can compete, you know, whether we are going to be fast enough to compete to

win against these autocracies in the 21st century.

And I've talked to President Z and President Putin, and they don't believe we can compete.

Really?

Our communist and

state killer don't think that America can win?

And he said, you know, we just have to move.

We have to move.

We have to move.

This is important because of what what he said to the press prior to he met with some of the

trusted anchors.

And I'm quoting him before the speech, he said, and I really believe, because I've spoken with over, I guess by the time 25, 30 heads of state, including Putin and President Z,

I had a two-hour conversation with him.

And I've been convinced for a long time.

Well, look, I doubt many of you would agree with me, but I think we're going to...

Look, they're going to write history about this point in history, not about any of us in here but about whether or not a democracy can function in the 21st century not a joke whether autocracy is the answer they were my many discussions that i have had many times when i've met with president z think about it you know things are moving so rapidly things are changing so rapidly in the world in science and technology the whole range of other issues the question is is a democracy that's such a genius as ours can you get a consensus in the time frame that can compete with an autocracy?

So when he was saying, pass it now, pass it now, pass it now, you got to do it now, the world won't wait, he was setting up

that our democracy, as our republic has spelled out, is just not working.

We have to make fundamental changes to the system because it's just not working.

Look, all the American people agree.

And there's just some people that are just stubborn and quite honestly part of this white racism and this systemic racism that

just won't agree and won't help us move forward.

And we've got to move.

We've got to change.

I really think this was

the cornerstone speech to be able to come back maybe a year from now and say, we tried it, but they won't move.

I beg them.

They wouldn't move.

Right, they won't do it.

Well, that's the

transformative philosophy that Barack Obama has.

That's what that is.

But Joe Biden doesn't know what he's saying.

You don't think he really understands what he's saying, do you?

I do, to some extent.

I don't think he's creating any of it.

He doesn't know the bigger picture of what his acolytes are telling him.

He doesn't understand

that by printing $6 trillion,

the U.S.

Treasury Department will impose tremendous inflation on this country.

Joe Biden doesn't know that.

He doesn't know macroeconomics.

So if you have money.

Bill, I'm a high school graduate and I know that.

Right.

I'm a high school graduate.

He doesn't know it in his diminished capacity.

All right.

He doesn't understand

what he's saying as far as the repercussions of it or the unintended consequences of it.

It's obvious because

if I'm or you are interviewing Joe Biden, Beck or O'Reilly, and he's there, it's one-on-one,

it would be a catastrophe for Mr.

Biden, would it not?

A catastrophe because you could say to him,

look, what you're proposing is socialism, Mr.

President.

That's what you're proposing.

You want the government to control policing.

That's what the George Floyd bill is all about.

You want the government to control elections when clearly in a constitutional, that's the state purview.

You want the government to control a private economy, all right?

And the government is going to create the jobs.

How many times last night did he say, we're going to create the jobs?

How many?

Yes.

A million times if it were one.

I got 18.

The government doesn't create jobs.

The private sector does.

Does Biden know that?

No.

Now, the people behind Biden know it.

The speechwriter knows it.

So basically, what Biden was telling

the American people was, we don't really believe in this free marketplace anymore.

We don't want capital.

Capital in the nation.

And he does not have to do it.

Let me take one minute break and make the case that Joe Biden knows exactly what he's doing

and just hear me out for a second because I'd love to hear your response.

We'll do that in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you

about our sponsor this half hour.

Our sponsor this half hour is Relief Factor.

Millions of Americans have had the quality of their lives directly and dramatically changed by pain.

I've met with members of this audience who have lived with pain for years.

I have seen the tears of joy.

in their eyes that

they never thought they would be able to have their life back.

They never thought they would be able to ever experience another day without debilitating pain.

It's been a miracle for so many people in this audience.

And I can't tell you that it's going to work for you, but 70% of the people who try it, just for three weeks, they see the differences and they go back and they order more than just the trial package because it works for them.

Now, it doesn't work for about 30%,

but just for 20 bucks, you can find out.

Just try it.

Just try it and see if it works for you.

800-500-8384.

Get your life back.

Get out of pain.

ReliefFactor.com.

10-second station ID.

Okay, Bill, let me just, let me say, let me rephrase or reset in your mind

the way we're looking at Joe Biden.

Joe Biden is part of the elite, and yes, he is diminished capacity.

But this conversation has been happening for a long time before he had diminished capacity.

When we started to do TARP, I know because I know people that were in that room,

they were saying at the time, we have to violate the free market to save the free market, which didn't make any sense.

But they started down this road and they were looking for the exit strategy.

It will come back to normal.

It will come back to normal.

We'll go back and we'll erase all that debt.

Well, they tried.

It didn't work.

So, what's the exit strategy?

Then they started getting mixed up with

just money printing.

The Fed printed $6 trillion and gave it to the banks just last year, in the last 12 months.

And so there's no way out.

So what's the exit strategy?

The exit strategy is, and you've heard this for years, China is the new model.

More of

an autocratic rule that the government makes a private

public partnership and we begin to move in a different way and we publicly invest.

Now, at the same time, we know that all this money is going to cause inflation, but the dollar is the reserve currency.

That writing has been on the wall for quite some time.

So, as part of this great reset, is a great financial reset.

But you can't reset the dollar unless the dollar is completely decimated.

So, go ahead, give it the juice, and we'll put the structure in for it to collapse in.

I think he knows exactly what he's doing.

I don't think he could have understood what you just said.

All right, so we just have a gentleman's disagreement.

Okay.

So, if you look at Joe Biden's history,

he's always been a party guy, never been an innovative guy, never been a creative guy, you know, plagiarism all over the place in his resume, as you know.

All right.

He's a party guy.

They used to call him party hacks.

I don't want to be disrespectful.

But that's what he is.

He's always done what he's told to do.

Now the progressives run the party.

Everybody knows that.

There are very few even moderate Democrats.

I don't think that Biden is doing

what he is told to do.

Does he understand

what inflation is,

how much money the Treasury printed just to fight COVID?

No.

I talked to Newt Gingrich.

I said he was kind enough to have me on his podcast to talk about killing the mob.

And we talked a little bit about politics before we got to the book.

And I said to the speaker, who's a very smart guy, you may not like him, he's not a good predictor.

I mean, he said Trump was going to win in a landslide.

I went, which Trump are we talking about?

Ivanka?

Because I knew that it was going to be not a good thing.

It's certainly not a landslide.

But anyway,

Gingrich said to me, the danger here is inflation, not that the economy is going to collapse

overnight because we're going to have consumer spending, which is going to be robust after COVID.

It will be a melt-up.

It will be a just rapid rise and then a crash.

Right.

But you can see it now in a price of gas.

Gas is way up.

Groceries.

You know, I went to a restaurant today.

They wanted $55 for a steak.

I said, are you going to give me a couple of tires for my car with that?

I mean, $55?

So this is what's happening.

But Byte doesn't understand that.

He doesn't live in the real world.

He's always been a marginal intellect.

Always.

And now he's in charge, and that's frightening.

When we come back, we're going to talk a little bit about his proposals and what they mean

for unions and what they mean for you.

Also, we'll talk a little bit about his new book, Killing the Mob, which you can order now, comes out next week.

This is the Glennbach program.

I am not making this up.

If the Joe Biden administration has their way, you will be allowed one hamburger a month.

That's it.

And I'm not making that up.

One hamburger,

it is only a certain amount of meat for every American.

You know, that's to fight global warming.

I think this is the way the Civil War started.

You know, it was slavery.

And wait a minute, wait a minute.

What's happening to meat?

If you are getting only one hamburger a month, you better make sure that's one damn good hamburger.

And the way to grill that is with a Rectech.

RekTech can smoke it, it can bake it, it can grill it, it will make anything.

It is the grill of grills.

This was developed, this was designed and developed by grillers.

The people, you know, who take it on the back of their truck and go around for all the grilling competitions, that's who designed this thing.

It's built like a tank, it It is fantastic.

And it is competitively priced.

And it shouldn't be, but it is because they cut out the middleman.

I want you to A-B compare against whatever you can find on the market.

Make sure you look at RecTech, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.

More with Bill.

Next.

We're with Bill O'Reilly and BillO'Reilly.com.

We're going to talk about his new book that comes out next week, early next week.

You can pre-order it now at billorilly.com or wherever you get your books.

It is called Killing the Mob.

It is excellent.

I think it's his best yet.

Make sure that you pick up a copy.

BillO'Reilly.com, Killing the Mob.

Bill,

yesterday, when President Briden gave his speech, he started with the white supremacists and the attack on the Capitol by white supremacists is the most lethal threat.

He said that at the beginning.

He said that at the end of his speech.

We all know that that is not true.

I mean, did he forget the 88 bombing of the Senate?

I mean, this is ridiculous.

This is the biggest threat to our democracy since the Civil War.

It was insanity to say that.

He is saying things.

Right.

Go ahead.

That just backs up my contention.

He doesn't know what he's saying.

That he just looks the progressive.

Okay, well, okay, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Somebody does then.

Somebody does.

Let's say he doesn't, but somebody does.

But now, wait a minute.

They're saying things that are so out of step with the American people.

If you look at what these policies, and I'm not saying that they're coming, I'm saying they are already here.

In two years, police and crime off the charts.

As police leave more and more,

schools are out of control.

Correct.

Destroying the school structure of law enforcement.

Okay, hang on just a second.

That's what they wanted to do.

Hang on.

I know.

So help me out on strategy here.

Crime and police out of control.

Schools with critical race out of control.

People not working because they're living off the government.

The spending of government.

If the Fed even thinks about raising interest rates, the whole thing falls apart.

Inflation is now not a matter of if or when.

It's already here.

Beside the corruption of the voting system in HR1,

court packing, et cetera, et cetera, what is their plan for two years down the road?

Because

if things were normal,

they'd have their heads handed to them in 2022.

But they're not normal because there's no free press in America anymore.

And that's the tipping point.

So once the corporate media threw in with the progressive left, the flow of honest information stopped.

So you and I have both worked in corporate media.

We know how corrupt it is, Beck, do we not?

Yes, oh yes, we do.

And we both started our own independent news agencies so that we could provide honest information, information that is not going to be provided by the giant corporations like ATT and Comcast and Disney.

They're not going to do it.

Once they allied with the Democratic Party and the progressive left, which they obviously have,

then the American people were left bereft of any kind of perspective on what's happening.

So if you step back, I love that step back phrase, and you look at what the Biden administration wants to do, it wants to control policing.

There's a bill that was just passed in the House that the federal government is going to tell the local and state police what to do.

And if you don't do it,

you're not going to control.

That is a federal police force.

It is absolutely unconstitutional, and it is the last step to autocracy.

Okay, so that's number one.

Then they want to control public education.

You must teach critical race theory or you're not going to get the Brock grants, just like the police.

Then they want to control, this is the progressive left by the administration, the election process.

That's what the HR1 bill is.

You will accept every ballot that comes in.

I don't care whether it has a name on it.

Somebody could have done it in Crayon.

You're accepting it.

And they can vote no matter what.

You want to vote a week after?

You go right ahead.

So those are the big three.

And then, of course, the humongous one that we saw last night is the government controls the private economy.

The government creates the jobs.

You add it all up, and you have a socialist system.

Yeah,

I don't think that goes strong enough because most people don't understand that.

They think that that's a nice word.

It is an autocratic system.

It is China.

When you have

China, but there's a difference, so don't overstate it because

they walk away.

Look, wait, China.

How is that overstating it?

Wait, how is that overstating it?

I'll tell you.

In China, if you don't do what you say, they punish you physically.

All right?

Okay, this will be punishing financially

for a time.

They're going to punish financially, no doubt.

All the achievers in America are going to be punished and the evil corporations.

But the evil corporations are going to pass all the extra tax they have to pay on to the folks.

But the folks don't understand.

They should.

They put gas in their car.

They know they're paying 80 cents a gallon more than they were before Biden was inaugurated.

They should.

But then Biden overwhelms them with the razzle-dazzle of, hey, we're going to pay for everything.

Healthcare, we're picking it up.

All right, don't worry about those premiums, those health care premiums.

I ain't going to get it.

Hey, how about family leave?

Five weeks.

You're a small business owner.

How are you going to replace somebody for five weeks?

How?

I'm a small business owner.

If I lose my key staff members on family leave, for five weeks, what do I do?

Okay, so this is basically a blanket control of everything.

And the media doesn't have to be controlled by the progressive left because they're already in.

Look at them.

Just name them down.

All the people on ABC, CBS, and NBC.

They're all in the tank.

Is there one of them not in the tank?

Look what happened to 60 Minutes.

which was the finest journalistic enterprise on television in the world.

Look what happened to it.

They went down and did a hatchet job on the governor of Florida and couldn't defend it.

It's over.

So now the American people are going to have to fend for themselves.

But as you pointed out, a lot of people just don't know what's happening because they're addicted to their devices.

They spend their whole life on the machines.

They don't know what's happening in the real world.

And that's what the progressive left counts on.

That and racial and gender division.

all right see i i

you're a racist

it's uh it's nice to say that uh you know and maybe it would be kind and gentle not with a boot uh just with a nudge um but

once you go to the next administration with a system like this you eventually do get a bullet to the head it happens that way every single time so um

you know you you can only do so much and then people you know the the better angels among us we wouldn't need laws if the better angels among us rose to the top on control and government.

There was a story yesterday that came out that said

the lies of the right and the misinformation spread so fast that they can never be corrected.

And we must do something.

That's right.

That's you and me, Bill.

Well, we've already been hammered.

I mean, we've already been hammered.

I mean, they got me four years ago.

And look,

everybody knows that game.

The real

turning point in this country is going to be the 2020 midterms.

If the American people don't see this and don't vote out the progressives in the House and the Senate, then

we're on our way to Sweden on steroids.

That's what it's going to be.

Central government is going to control what we do, how much we have.

I would live in Sweden.

Sweden, the people of Sweden are saying, look at what you're doing.

That's not what we do.

I mean,

I've seen the documentaries from Sweden saying, no, that's not what we do.

I would live in Sweden over what's coming in a heartbeat.

I wish it were just as bad as Sweden.

Yeah, I know they don't.

They would help me.

I know.

I know.

Okay, let's talk a little bit about your book, Killing the Mob.

Comes out next week.

It's out next week, and the overarching of this book is: organized crime in America was the most powerful institution from the late 1940s until 1962.

Well, wait a minute,

that's at the same time that the labor unions were finding the

zenith of their power.

Oh, wait, the mob?

Shut up!

Yeah!

So from 1949 until 1962, the organized crime was more powerful than the House of Representatives, more powerful than the Senate, more powerful than any governor.

And you can make an argument they were more powerful than Eisenhower and Truman.

You can make an argument, okay?

Now, how did they get that power?

Well, it began in World War II.

Did you know that the mob helped George Patton invade Europe?

I bet you didn't.

Did you know that the mob controlled the film industry in Hollywood?

Bet you didn't.

Did you know they controlled the early rock industry?

All right, in the 50s?

Bet you didn't.

Did you know that they controlled commerce through the Teamsters unions

in America?

What came in?

What came out?

How much it cost?

Did you know?

Bet you did.

What was the thing that stopped them, Bill?

How did we break that?

Bobby Kennedy.

Bobby Kennedy stopped them.

And he's a hero, whether you like the Kennedys or not.

Oh, Bobby is in a mob.

And you, this man,

he was the only one.

J.

Edgar Hoover.

That's why I began in the 30s with John Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, Babyface Nelson, because that's when the FBI started.

Because these guys were so bad.

These bank robbers, and they were going from state to state, and the state authorities couldn't control them.

So that they formed the FBI.

Young J.

Edgar Hoover got the job.

He and the FBI annihilated all of these gangsters.

They annihilated them.

It wasn't like, hey, you want to surrender?

No!

They saw them, they killed them.

And so we got Al Capone, and then World War II happened.

And then the mob made a deal with the U.S.

government to help in the invasion of Europe.

In return, mobsters from Sicily got free passage into the USA in 1946, and they came over in waves, and they took over all the unions, okay?

And they took over Cuba, and they built Vegas, and they were everywhere.

Now, nobody knows any of this, and Hoover did nothing.

Why?

We can't prove it, but we do put in the book

accusations and allegations that the mob had stuff on Hoover.

Gambling stuff and homosexual stuff.

All right?

I can't prove that.

And I say that clearly.

But J.

Edgar Hoover, it is a fact, did nothing.

Nothing.

There was no federal agency investigating organized crime other than Treasury, that's Elliott Ness, Al Capone, okay,

for all of those years until Bobby Kennedy became the Attorney General.

He single-handedly dismantled much of the mob's power.

However, today,

organized crime is still very powerful.

And it's really amazing that it was Bobby Kennedy, seeing that his father was really in with the mob.

We get into that.

I talked to the Kennedy family extensively about this.

Bobby Kennedy was the last Kennedy son, the smallest physically.

He was ignored by his father.

Let's get into this early next week.

Maybe I'll have you on a couple of times next week.

Great.

And we can talk talk to you about your new book.

Killing the Mob.

It's a great book by Bill O'Reilly.

You can get it now, pre-order it.

It comes out next week.

When you pre-order it, it's basically going to be shipped to you right away.

And you can get it from billo'reilly.com or wherever you buy your books.

Bill, thank you so much.

We'll talk to you again next week.

Thanks, Rey.

I appreciate it, Back.

Bye.

You bet.

These days, cyber criminals are doing amazing things like taking over your phone account by tricking your phone company into assigning your online bank accounts or your phone number to a new SIM card.

That way, they have basically assigned your bank account, your credit cards, and everything else over to the cyber criminal.

You almost admire these people if they weren't such dirtbags.

I mean,

there's nothing,

nothing you can use your skill for that would be good for society.

It's amazing to me.

It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity affect all of our lives.

When they steal your identity, it can crush you.

I have had life Lifelock for a long, long time.

They have saved my family from a few things.

And if we've ever had any problems, they've been there to help clean it up.

And that's really the difference with Life Lock.

Not only I think are they the best in the business, I mean, they're the ones who really created this category back in the 90s.

And they also have a team that is just there to help clean anything up that they might have missed or you might have missed.

It's Life Lock.

So call Life Lock now at 1-800-LifeLock.

Tell them that I sent you, and you'll save 25% off your first year.

1-800-LIFELOCK.

1-800-LIFELOCK.

Or you can use that promo code Beck at Lifelock.com.

Promo Code Beck.

You are listening to the Glenn Beck program.

I have to tell you, Bill and I see the speech speech quite differently.

And I think it's just because I've been studying this and I feel like I know what was coming our way and has been planned for quite some time.

And you're seeing last night as a cornerstone speech for the last moves on the chessboard.

If you see what they've done,

just in the speech last night, they're talking about they already control education.

But have you noticed that they gave, you know, the schools asked for $25 billion for COVID.

I think they gave them $50 or $80 billion on the first round, and then $125 billion for what they asked for 25.

Now he's not only empowering them through money and making the unions stronger there, he's also saying, oh, and we're going to indoctrinate your kids for another four years starting at the age of three.

There is control everywhere, the federalizing of the police, the control of the election, the control and cleansing of the military, the cleansing of the media, the empowerment of the IRS and the corruption of the FBI.

Can you see the cage that they're building?

So a very dear friend of mine, Stephen Moore, who I've known for a long time when he was just, I think, the senior editor at the Wall Street Journal,

he is,

he's involved in a little bit of everything,

a senior economic contributor for Freedom Works.

He helped work with Trump.

He has worked with Bush.

He has been instrumental.

He's kind of, you know, cut from the Art Laffer cloth, if you will.

He's just co-founded Committee to Unleash Prosperity.

And I was reading about it, and

I want to give you

their steps to prosperity.

See what you think.

One, this is what they advocate: a broad-based, low-tax, flat tax,

limited government spending, got it, light regulation, sound money, free trade, and rule of constitutional law.

All of those were violated in last night's speech.

We're going to get his take on the speech and what it means for America economically in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck Program.

And now, for your listening pleasure, here are some useless things.

Late-night television in Joe Biden's room.

Diet water, pet rocks, and car warranties the day after they expire.

That's the day you know something is going to go haywire for sure, and probably one of those stupid computer chips that are going to skyrocket in price.

I had a computer chip go in my car.

It was like three grand.

If I could even get one, did you see that Ford is saying that the next quarter, they don't know how many trucks they're going to be able to make because of the computer chip shortage.

If one of those things goes wrong, you might not be able to drive your car for a while because they may not be able to get the part.

Okay, so what do you do?

Well, if you have Car Shield, you're probably not going to have to worry about it because if it's a covered repair, you're going to get a rental car

while yours is in the shop.

And you don't have to foot the bill and then wait for Car Shield to come pay you back.

They deal with everything directly.

It is really a great service.

If your car has an expired warranty, may I highly suggest you get CarShield.

They have saved me several times on my old trucks.

It's CarShield at carshield.com.

Go there now, carshield.com, use the promo code Beck, and you're going to save 10%.

It's carshield.com, promo code Beck, a deductible may apply.

Stephen Moore, the co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity.

And it's a great, great thing that you're doing, Stephen.

And as I'm looking at all of the things you're saying, that's what we have to do.

The exact opposite in every category, the exact opposite was suggested last night.

Well, I don't know if I should laugh or cry.

I mean, you were right.

I mean, we were for sound money.

We don't have sound money.

We for

limited government.

We don't have limited government, flat tax.

No, they want to raise taxes, 40, 50, 60%

rates, and on and on down the line.

You know, I called the speech last night

tax, spend, and snooze

because I have to confess I felt, I did fall asleep halfway through the speech.

Let's just say it wasn't scintillating, right?

No, it was incredibly.

And

I think that's one of the good things if you're a progressive or a Marxist

or somebody that's for the great reset.

He is so boring.

It makes it sound like nothing is happening.

But

that was an incredibly important speech if you know what you were looking for.

That was that's

fundamental transformation of America complete.

Am I am I overstating that?

No, you're no, you're not.

This is transformational.

It is, uh, you know, I, I calculated about five to six trillion dollars of additional spending.

By the way, folks, that's a trillion.

You know,

our buddy Larry Kudlow asked me the other day on his TV show, you know, Steve, what comes after a trillion?

I said, I don't know, gazillion.

I mean, you know, when I first came to Washington 30 years ago, I've been doing this a long time.

I've known you for a long time, Glenn.

You know, we used to talk about the budget in the millions and billions, and now we talk about it in the billions of trillions.

And the numbers get so big, we become, and that's the size to how lunatic this is.

You know, if I were advising,

you know, Biden, the way I, Larry, and others advised Trump, I would have said, hey, let's cut spend.

We got to get government out of the way here.

Let's cut.

We should be cutting government spending right now, not increasing government spending.

We're looking at a debt that is larger than the amount of money we borrowed to finance the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War I, World War II, and the Cold War.

In one year, that's how much we're going to borrow.

I mean, folks, this is insane.

This is a prescription for national bankruptcy.

I liked what the Wall Street Journal said in its lead editorial this morning, which is cradle-to-grave government.

And Glenn, I'm here to submit to you that's not America.

It's not.

However, you know, this has happened so quickly.

We have spent $19 trillion.

If this passes, $19 to $20 trillion in the last 12 months, that's including the Fed bailouts that nobody ever talks about.

Right.

Stephen,

that is,

we are going to, please help me out on this because I am a limited mind, as you know.

So please tell me where I'm wrong.

We are going to have a a boom.

I think we're already seeing it in some regards.

The economy is coming back because there's $19 trillion that has been pumped into the system.

That's half, almost half of all the money on the entire planet.

And we've just dropped that into the system.

But we're also seeing inflation, which everyone is saying we're not.

Have you bought meat?

Have you bought milk?

Have you bought plywood?

Look,

I spent $56 filling up the tank, and it used to cost me about $37.

I mean, we have seen more than a dollar increase in many markets in the gasoline prices, which is something every, you know, almost every family has to spend.

So one of the major budget items.

So we are seeing that happening.

And I just don't think the American people want this.

I don't think this is what people signed up for.

I really don't.

I mean, you know, look, if you tell the American people, I'm going to give you something for free.

I mean, we're Americans.

We love free things, right?

But the idea, you're going to have free free child care, free daycare, free, healthcare, free, social, you know, free this, free college, free, junior college, free.

I mean, come on, we're going to run out.

We're going to bankrupt our country.

And Glenn, the question I ask you and your audience is, what happens when the Chinese stop buying our bonds?

Uh-huh.

Then where are we going to get the money?

Well, we're already, you know, this, Stephen.

The Fed has been the biggest buyer of our bonds.

The Fed just buys them.

We're just printing the money.

That's just

the technical term for that, and you're right, is called monetizing the debt.

That's what Argentina, Bolivia, Mexico, Zimbabwe do.

Right.

You know, and I hate to tell you, folks, that story does not have a happy ending.

So, Stephen,

how fast do you think this sugar rush is going to come up and then come crashing down?

How much time do we have on before real inflation is so apparent everybody is crushed by it?

Well, Biden's the luckiest guy, you know, maybe in America.

You know, for he took over, you know, I loved how he was taking credit for all the amazing things he's done for the last 600 days.

We've seen the economy.

Well, come on.

I mean, and by the way, I have to just get this off my chest, having worked for Trump.

I don't care if you love Trump or hate Trump, ladies and gentlemen, Operation Warp Speed was not mentioned one time by Joe Biden.

Not once.

I mean, what a classless act, frankly.

I mean, it would have been in Biden's own political self-interest to basically say thank you, Donald Trump, for Operation.

But they don't have it.

They hate Trump so much, they can't even say thank you.

And I think 90% of Americans realize that this was Trump that gave us a vaccine one or two years ahead of schedule, and not because of more government, because he got government out of the way.

Yep.

Yep.

Okay, so as I'm looking at this, I see

unions growth, this massive expansion of unions,

a partnership, a public-private partnership.

I mean, if you watch his statements before the speech where he was talking to a group of reporters and anchors, he was talking about the question is whether a democracy like ours can survive against an autocratic nation like China.

And, you know, we have to really kind of prove that out.

Well, no, no, we don't.

We've already decided that.

But I think that's where we're being led is into this Chinese kind of style government where everything is controlled from the police

to the financial system to a partnership with these corporations.

I see a very different future, Stephen.

So let me give you an example of what you're talking about.

One of the things I find kind of chilling is there was a large part of that speech that I listened to before I fell asleep, and that had to do with child care and daycare.

And by the way, we used to call this babysitting, right?

You know, my first job at Glenn was a dollar an hour babysitting for kids when the parents were gone.

And by the way, how did women ever survive in the workforce before Joe Biden came along on his white horse?

I mean, if you listen to him last night, you're like, women can't work anymore because they don't have daycare and child care.

They want their view of things, and I'm not exaggerating here, Glenn.

You tell me if you think I'm wrong.

They're saying, look, look, the problem in America is these two and three and four, five-year-olds, we've got to get them out of the hands of the unprofessionals.

I mean, mothers and fathers can't take care of kids.

We've got to get them into the hands of the government.

The same people have done such an incredible job with our five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen-year-olds.

The problem is we haven't gotten them soon enough.

I mean, this is really the way these people think.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

And it's really all about control.

I mean,

tell me, tell me, please tell me that I'm wrong.

The Great Reset, as proposed by the World Economic Forum, everybody says that's not going to happen.

It's conspiracy theory.

Well, the framework just passed in the EU and is going for a parliament vote in the EU.

Whether it passes or not, I don't know.

But that structure is exactly what he was talking about last night, that there will be penalties if you don't play along, if you don't do the things that the government says you got to do because we're all in this together.

That is coming right, Stephen.

You've been on this story a long time, Glenn, and I used to kind of even, you know, I say, well, Glenn's a little way out there, you know, with the, you know, they want global government.

But the fact is, that's exactly what they want.

They want a global tax system.

They have this global minimum tax.

They want the United Nations and these international organizations to dictate our climate policy, our economic policy, our tax policy.

And Biden does not put America first.

They reject the idea of American exceptionalism.

I am really, really insulted by this and so disappointed that we have a president of the United States who said that the United States is a

is a systemically racist country.

I mean, what a slur against this country.

I mean, you expect maybe the Chinese or the Russians to say that about us, not our own president.

And so, you know,

I would have said six months ago, no, this stuff isn't going to happen.

No, this is America, but it is happening.

This is a defining moment for the country, and I pray that the American people reject this.

So the problem is, I go back to what you felt, because for the first time, I actually had to stop myself.

My instinct,

about 40 minutes into it, I was sitting on the set, and I almost said to my executive producer, let's cut away from this.

Let's just start talking about it.

Because it was so colossally boring that I'm not sure Americans will hear and understand

what he was proposing last night.

It was, I mean, it's a blessing for the left that he is just so colossally boring and old.

And he says enough stuff.

It was the most schizophrenic speech I've ever heard.

America is systematically racist, but we're the greatest country in the world.

Wait a minute.

You can't be both.

Which is it?

Which is it?

You know, by the way, the dilated evening, actually, I have to say, Tim Scott did a really fantastic job.

I mean, it's a tough job to give the, you know, the rejoinder speech, and I thought that was one of the best I've seen.

And he just basically laid it out.

Look, we are a flawed country.

We're human beings.

We're flawed, right?

But this is the greatest country on earth, and we are not systemic.

By the way, do you know what, Glenn,

what ethnic group has the highest income in the United States?

Asians.

Yes, yes, Asians.

But wait a minute, Glenn, how can that be?

Asians, most Asians have brown skins.

I thought we were a racist country that hated blacks and yellows and reds and browns.

Oh, yeah, but they've seen.

No, no, no.

They've bought into the white systematic racism that merit matters.

And so they're just playing the same white system.

Right.

Well, they've done a good job of it because the average Asian household comes here, and most Asians have only been here for one generation or so, have a median income of $100,000.

By the way, Hispanics have made incredible economic progress in this country over the last 20 years, according to the latest census data.

The only group that

tragically is not making great economic gains has been black Americans.

Why?

Because they have lousy schools, because they don't have unsafe streets.

They have communities that are in big trouble.

E.G., you know, as Trump would say, you know, who

do you have to lose with these?

Why do you keep electing these people that give you lousy schools, unsafe streets, you know, a corrupt government, on and on and on.

And it tells you a lot, though, that we are not making, it is absolutely true, we're not making enough progress with black Americans, but they are not being,

because they have a system of Democrats.

Look, I come from Chicago.

Who's run Chicago for the last 75 years?

Democrats.

Right.

Right.

Let me take a one-minute break.

They're going to save our country, though.

You know, they're going to save our country.

The same people who, what states are bankrupt?

California, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey.

You know, I just got back from Florida.

Florida is completely wide open.

You know, it's back to normal, basically, in Florida.

And meanwhile, you've got these blue states that have high unemployment, huge numbers of job losses, small businesses shut down.

And the other thing, you know, I could go on and on, but we've got a big problem right now because of the massive welfare state and all these unemployment benefits.

The biggest problem right now is most small businesses can't get their workers back.

Which is another contributing factor to inflation, is it not?

Of course.

You have to

raise the price, but you also can't make the things that people are demanding because you don't have the workers.

Yeah, and now the liberals said, oh, well, that means they're just going to have to raise the wages.

These people have never run a small business.

Oh, gee, it would be so wonderful.

It was so easy.

We could just

raise our costs and raise our prices.

That's not the way a small business works.

Small businesses have these tiny, small margins of profit.

And you increase their price, they can't raise, they're going to go out of business.

I mean, so we're doing real damage.

And I look, 65% of the jobs in this country, Glenn, come from small businesses, and they're the victims of a lot of this.

Okay, hang on just a second.

If you have time, can you stay with me for just a couple more minutes?

Yeah, I mean, I'm angry about that.

You can tell in a little afternoon.

Okay, all right, okay.

Hang on just a sec for 60 seconds, and I'll be back with Stephen Moore.

So Stephen Moore is with us.

Stephen, I just saw a poll today that the era of big government is back.

More people believe in big government than small government.

I don't, you know, the scientific theory is

dead if that's true.

Are you watching what's happening

to our country and our world?

How are we fighting this, Stephen?

I haven't seen that poll that you just cited, but I just saw a poll, I think it was the ABC Washington Post poll that found still a majority of Americans when they were asked, do you want more government and and higher taxes or less government and lower taxes, a majority want less government.

But now that that might be an outlier poll that you're looking at because it's been pretty consistent for the last 40 years.

People, when you ask them, do you want higher and higher taxes and more and more government, people generally say no to this.

And if we lose that, then we're in big trouble.

You asked me about

the unionization of all of these jobs.

You know, I think one one of the most chilling things that we're not talking about enough, something that we as free market conservatives have to throw our bodies in front of this train, is Biden talked about this,

what do they call it, the PRO Act, and this is the union bill.

And I don't think enough people know this.

There are 27 states in the United States, most of the states in the South, most of the, many of the Midwestern and mountain states, that are right-to-work states.

And right-to-work means

you cannot be commanded by the government to join a union.

It doesn't say you can't have a union.

It just says you can't force people against their will to join a union.

The Biden plan, folks, pay attention.

The Biden plan would basically outlaw right-to-work laws in 27 states.

That would mean overnight, Vlad, you want to talk about a transformation.

Overnight, tens of millions of American workers against their will would be forced to join unions and pay union dues.

Well, I find it interesting that he says, you know, Americans are for all these things.

No, they're not.

That's why so many states are

coming up with their own laws to shore up their own election rules,

to shore up their own rights.

And I hope that they're shoring up their right-to-work laws.

Are they?

They better.

Yeah.

Lynn, look what happened.

What was it, two weeks ago in Bettsmore, Alabama, where, remember, everybody in the media, everybody said, oh my gosh, all of these warehouse workers, there's 6,000 of them, they are going to join the union at Amazon, you know, Amazon does.

They didn't.

Everybody thought they were going to.

You know what?

They didn't ask the workers.

And

they had the election.

And you know how many, what percentage of people voted to join the union?

29%.

Stephen Moore, thank you so much.

Back in just a minute.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to Thursday.

If you missed any part of the program today, Bill O'Reilly was on with us.

Thomas Massey, Stephen Moore was just on.

Bill O'Reilly, we talked about the speech last night, and

it was a colossally boring speech.

But please, if you listen to anything today on the speech, grab our podcast and listen just to the first 20 minutes if that's all that you have time for.

It is critical that you understand I view things differently.

I view things, you know, Stu and I were talking, and this is no offense to Bill O'Reilly, but Bill is incapable, really, I think, of seeing over the horizon on many things.

He deals with today, usually.

He deals with the things, I mean, he's good at what he does.

His skill is different than mine.

My skill, strangely, is being able to see over the horizon at puzzle pieces that everybody say don't go together, but they do.

And that speech last night was the last few puzzle pieces to be put in.

That was the last few moves on a chessboard that was started by Woodrow Wilson.

And

that was the

warning

that we are going to fundamentally transform soon.

And I explained it in the first 20 minutes.

And it's vital that you understand

because you need to prepare for impact.

And impact is going to be tough.

And I...

The first thing you're going to see is the devaluation of all of your money in your bank account.

You're going to start losing money because of inflation.

So, you know, you keep your money in your bank account and it's going to, you're going to, you're going to lose, you could lose up to 48 cents in the next couple of years on every dollar that you have because prices are going to go up so high and the value of the dollar is going to continue to go down.

Please prepare yourself for that.

Also, tomorrow,

we're going to start talking to you about some of the things that people are doing against critical race theory.

There are some communities that are really standing up and making a difference.

Now, I can't remember where the city was.

I read the story tomorrow.

We'll have it for you.

Or I read it yesterday.

Gosh, I read it this morning.

We'll have it for you tomorrow.

It is

a story about a school district where

the

the inner texts between the school district and the education, Board of Education, were going back and forth on, look, invent a fake curriculum that you can give to the parents because we got to get them off this thing because they're not changing.

And so you're up against a lot of things and we'll bring you up to speed on that.

It's also really important

to do business

with good people right now.

Do business with people that are in

the same boat and mindset that you are.

And it's going to get harder and harder to do that.

But we have to reward the companies that are doing the right thing,

even if it has nothing to do with politics.

I want to give you one example.

We're doing renovations to our house.

What a colossal mustache.

Don't live in it even if it's falling down around you.

Just don't start a project.

But anyway, we started this project, I don't even know, eight months ago or so, last summer is when we started it.

And gosh, it's been almost a year.

And we ordered our floors, the hardwood floors, forever ago, forever ago.

And

we were dealing with this company because they're the only ones that make this kind of wood anymore because it's pecan wood, which is big in Texas or was.

And now they don't.

I don't know if we don't have pecan trees or we don't cut them down.

I don't know why.

It's been a pain in my ass.

And so

we only could find one group of people that made this kind of wood anymore.

And we were delayed by 12 weeks.

And then it was another four weeks.

And then

we called them every day.

You're on track, right?

You're on track.

After about 20 weeks,

we finally called them and they said, yeah, we're just not, we don't have any.

We're like, what?

And so I had the contractor call the people that was representing, you know, they were the ones who turned us us on to it and said, what, what are you doing?

You're a credible company.

What are you doing?

You've just set us back 20 weeks and now we have to start all over again.

They didn't even know who I was.

We had the contractor call.

These guys, I listened on the phone to these phone calls and they were like, we are so sorry.

We can't vouch for them.

I'm sorry that we ever did.

We thought we made it clear that they're not people we usually do business with, but that's the only one we could find.

We will make this right.

They said they would have it in three weeks.

Impossible.

Three weeks to the day yesterday it was delivered to my house.

And what's really sad is, at least I kind of find it sad.

By the way, the company is Trinity Hardwood Distributors.

But I thought what was really sad was I called Phil Robertson.

He was the guy on the phone that I listened to.

And I said, Phil, this is Glenn Beck, and I'm the guy you delivered the hardwood to.

And he said, oh.

And I said, I just want you to know,

integrity means everything to me.

And I was so upset, not because we had to wait, but because the integrity was just nowhere to be found.

And you had to come in and say, I'm going to make this right.

And there's no chance of you making that right.

And you have no record.

There's no reason for me to even believe you and yet you did and I just wanted to thank him for that and I swear to you what was sad to me was it was like nobody does that it felt at least it may not have been his intent but it felt to me like wow nobody does that they raise hell but they never call and say thank you when you meet the expectations or go beyond them.

And I think it's so critical, so critical that we reward the people who are living the right life.

So I can't recommend if you're in the Dallas or Texas area, Trinity Hardwood Distributors.

I think they're the biggest hardwood place in Texas.

I'm not sure, but

thank you, Phil, and your team for doing exactly what it's weird that you have to say thank you for doing what you said, but unfortunately you do.

Something else that I want to bring up.

Stu, I've been thinking about this for a long time.

I know we're not going to make a dime from them, and that's fine and everything.

I want to make Hanks our official soda of this program.

Oh, yeah.

Hanks.

Hanks is awesome.

Hanks root beer.

It's unbelievable.

Do you even know if it's out in the whole country?

Can you get Hanks in the whole country yet?

I don't know if you can get it in the whole country.

It's definitely in.

You can order it.

It's a Philly brand,

but you can get it all over the country ordering it.

And I know it's in Texas and some areas in the South.

But yeah, it's definitely growing pretty quickly.

Hanks is really good.

I want to make them the official and cut cut something that says the official soft drink of the Glenn Beck program.

Hanks, would you have that done?

I want to give them free advertising.

I want to give them free advertising.

Anything I can do to get people out of the clutches of Coca-Cola, I'm into.

Also, we should mention Coinbase.

Yeah.

Coinbase is

remarkable.

They have every reason.

to play into this new ESG and the government and do all these.

They have every reason to do that because the government is going to come after cryptocurrency and places like Coinbase if you don't play ball.

And Coinbase has refused to play ball.

Not that they are making a statement one way or the other.

They're just saying that's none of our business.

We are a coin base.

We are like a,

we help people with cryptocurrency.

That's it.

That's what we do.

That's all we're going to talk to you about.

Yeah.

Amen.

They said we'll talk about political issues as they relate to cryptocurrency, but this is not the place to organize your rallies or whatever.

Like, it's just not what we do here.

You're free to do it, of course, on your own, but like, that's not what we do here.

We work on this.

We want the mission to be central.

There's a new company, another one has gone down this road as well, Basecamp.

They're a software maker.

Right.

And they

said they will no longer publicly engage in societal and political discussions and that employees are urged to take the conversations with willing coworkers to signal a WhatsApp or even a personal Basecamp account, but it can't happen where the work happens anymore because they were getting so sidetracked from their actual, you know, company.

And they said, and they said they couldn't even work with each other because everybody was arguing and people were saying, oh, I don't know if I should say this because I don't know if I'm in, I don't know if I'm on the right side or the wrong side.

And everything was stopping.

And congratulations, Basecamp.

I don't even know if you're a left or right company.

I don't care.

I don't care.

Thank you for having the balls to stand up against it.

And I have to tell you something.

All these companies that are requiring you to take your vaccine, I suggest that if you are 55, 60 years old, you have any kind of health problems, no matter what your age, get your vaccine.

Get your vaccine.

If you've already had it, you know, just look for when it starts to come back again.

I'm not getting vaccinated, not because I don't trust it or anything else.

I just had COVID and I had a bad case of of it, what, around Christmas time.

And, you know, we'll see.

It probably should last about a year.

I'm not going to get a double dose of it.

I'm not going to have my kids get a dose because they're all healthy.

There's also a window after you have it that you're not supposed to get the vaccine.

Yeah, so you got to watch that anyway.

So

I'm all for vaccines.

I am.

However, I'm not for anybody forcing people to have the vaccine at all.

And that includes companies.

And I am proud to say that Mercury Studios, much to some people's celebration or chagrin, we are not forcing you to get a vaccine.

You want to get a vaccine?

That's your business.

You don't want to get a vaccine?

That's your business.

Companies have got to start worrying about what they do,

not what everyone is telling them to do.

Yeah, it makes people not want to take it.

It's like, you know, people are like, what do we do about these people who don't want to take the vaccine?

I don't know.

Let them live their lives and respect their decision.

And you know what?

Maybe try to persuade them with good evidence.

Right.

Persuade them by doing this.

Don't tell the people that are on national television to social distance of six feet and wear masks and promote this fear when everyone last night watching that speech has already been vaccinated.

Wouldn't it been a great message?

They've all been vaccinated.

It wouldn't have been a great message if they all came out there, all of them, with no masks because they would all been vaccinated.

And he could have started the speech that way.

Look at this room.

This is an old school room.

This is the room remember for 2019.

Everybody's here.

Everybody has their mask off because everyone's vaccinated.

You can go back to this life if this is you.

Like, what that's a message you can send.

And instead of that, they made it sound like it was absolutely worthless to get the vaccine.

Even people like Nancy Pelosi, who are sitting there not even talking,

they're not even having interactions with each other unless they're off camera.

And

it makes it look like there's no benefit of getting it.

You know, people

have already moved in large numbers from people who are skeptical to people who either have received the vaccine or are now going to get it because they've seen positive results from it.

That's all you have to do.

Stand by your products.

Yeah, that's it.

And would you do me a favor, see if we can get the footage that we had last night, the network coverage, just the open cameras.

it ran for about 45 minutes.

The feed ran as everybody was coming in.

No social distancing.

They were all talking.

Many of them had their masks down underneath their nose, right up in each other's faces, kissing each other on the cheek.

It was only when they knew the cameras were on nationwide that they changed their behavior.

It was sickening to watch.

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

It is goldline.

For as much as I talk about cryptocurrency, I will tell you, I am,

I mean, I'm not not counting on cryptocurrency.

I'm hoping, but I'm not counting on it because all they have to do is

Janet Yellen come out and say, you know what?

That's not the future.

It's not going to happen.

We're going to our own cryptocurrency, which I think the United States is going to.

And it is over.

It is over.

I have money in cryptocurrency.

Love it.

Love it.

Am I counting on it?

No.

Am I counting on gold and silver?

You bet your ass.

And I'm not buying paper gold or paper silver.

Don't anything that, well, we'll have it.

There's always a supply of it.

We'll get it and ship it to you if you need it.

No, get it shipped to you.

Get it shipped to you.

Physical gold.

Please prepare for impact.

Last night's speech was so important.

We have spent $19 trillion

in the last year.

Inflation is coming.

When I say your dollar in your bank account is going to to be worth 48 cents maybe in four years or 52 cents,

gold is not going to be.

You won't lose your money on gold.

It will remain,

it will look as though it's going up, but it's not.

It's just that your dollar is going down.

Please,

I purchased gold for

insane times.

And I'm sorry, we are in insane times.

Call Goldline and find out if gold or silver is right for you.

The Glenn Beck Program.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Stu, what do you have coming up today on Stu Does America?

Got a bunch of other takes on the speech from last night.

Pat Gray will be joining us with his perspective as well, which is always very solid.

We're also going to be doing this.

I've got to do this Connor McGregor story.

Have you heard this?

You know, the

UFC fighter.

He got in trouble in 2019 because he was at a bar and he wanted to give someone a shot of his whiskey and they said no.

So obviously he was like a 50, 60 year old guy.

He just punched him in the face, which is not normally the reaction of most people.

But again, the guy's a UFC fight.

So he got very upset about this.

Apparently, and he's also very wealthy.

And now he's decided to take care of the situation.

He's purchased the pub where it occurred and banned the guy from the pub.

Oh, my gosh.

Two years later.

Oh, my gosh.

It's fantastic.

That's a solid.

I mean, that's when you know you have, I mean, they call it

screw you money.

F you money.

Okay, yes, he money.

Yes,

and when you have that much, where you just buy a pub just to get one

land that you don't like.

That is a lot of money.

You got to have a lot of money when you're just doing that.

Yeah, I'm buying.

In fact, I bought your house last night.

Get out.

That's a sweet life he's living.

The guy's like, I wouldn't go back there anyway.

Why would I

want to go back there?

Don't wreck it for me, please.

Don't wreck it for me

today on Stu Does America.
