I know we're getting close to summer.

Things are starting to warm up.

You have the entire situation where

the best of the best

times, I think, in the summer are you're out, you're by the pool, you've got the grill going, you've got, you know, you've got your family out there.

It's just, it's the best time.

And RekTech makes it a lot better because part of that time can now become time where you're inside in the air conditioning, looking and monitoring the whole smart grill technology through your phone, which makes the summers a lot better, Glenn.

Yeah, it does.

And you can get a rect now by going to

RECTEQ, rechtech.com and see a rectech for yourself.

AB compare them.

I never want you to buy something just because I say to, you know, it's the best.

I want you to do your own homework so you feel comfortable and see the same thing that I see every time with a rech tech when I am outdoor grilling.

It's Recttech.com, R-E-C-T-E-Q, Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is coming up next.

15 seconds.

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America, and welcome.

It's Friday, which means Bill O'Reilly next.

The Glen Beck Program.

Hey, everybody, welcome to the program.

We're so glad that you've tuned in today.

Before we get to Mr.

Bill O'Reilly, let me tell you a little bit about Rough Greens.

Rough Greens, we have an expert with us now, a dog expert, Phil McGriffith.

Hello, Phil.

How are you?

Are you there, Phil?

Hello?

I am here.

Thank you for

very similar voices.

Yeah, I don't.

So I just wanted to talk to you about what your dog eats.

Before you fed your dog rough greens and put that stuff on top, what was your dog like?

Well, my dog really had a lot of serious problems.

It's on our phone now.

Yes, it had a lot of serious problems.

Like, what, what, what you're doing, because I understand your dog had leprosy.

Yes.

Yeah, leprosy.

Leprosy, yes.

About three or four limbs per hour were falling off at the time.

Really?

So your dog was in a dog wheelchair, but not only because of the leprosy, but also because of polio.

Dog polio.

Yeah, dog polio is a big...

People don't know this.

No polio vaccine for dogs.

No sugar cubes.

No sugar.

Dogs can't eat sugar, you know.

It'll kill them.

No, it'll kill them.

Ben and onions.

Yes.

Onions.

That explains my dog's death.

But

so then you started using rough greens, which doesn't claim to cure any of those things.

No, it does not at all.

It's just really healthy for your dog, and your dog's going to love it.

It has absolutely nothing to do with polio.

Right.

It will make your dog feel a lot better, and they will absolutely devour it.

All right.

And

I understand that your dogs have grown their limbs back.

They have grown their limbs back.

That has nothing to do.

of course with rough greens i've created a different substance well i don't want to make those claims that it will make limbs grow back

I'm pretty sure

that's not what they want to say.

But I will say it will make your dog very, very happy and very, very healthy.

Yes.

All right.

So you get a free bag of rough greens right now.

All you do is pay for shipping.

Just go to roughgreens.com slash back.

Is that what you did, Phil

McGriffin?

That's exactly what I did, Glenn, and I recommend others in your audience do the same.

Thank you very much.

Or you can call them 833GL E-N-N33, Glenn33.

You You can call them.

Use that old telephone if you happen to be technologically challenged or live in an internet desert, which is adjacent to many food deserts here in the United States.

Thank you very much, Phil McGriffith, another happy, happy customer whose dog's legs grew back.

Had, of course, nothing to do with Rough Greens at roughgreens.com.

Just want to see how fast Stu can think.

And not too fast is the answer to that.

Yeah.

He was looking down when I started that commercial, not paying attention, reading something else.

And I'm like, damn it, you will listen to me.

You will pay attention.

That's your title.

Yeah, we have Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

Welcome to the program, Bill.

You know, Beck,

if you buy an advanced copy of Killing the Mob out May 4th, I will throw in some rough greens.

Okay, so here's the thing, Bill.

Yeah.

I started reading

Killing the Mob.

Yes.

And I had to go out and buy a copy myself because you didn't send one to me.

Pinocchio strikes again, everyone.

And so I started reading it, and some would claim that they might have heard me exclaim, this is Bill O'Reilly's best book.

Wow, Doug, thank you very much.

I think

if it wasn't written by you or, you know, endorsed by me, you'd have a series out of this.

I mean, you did the Jesus series,

milked poor Jesus for all he's worth.

Yeah, I'm going to hell.

I admit it.

I know.

I know.

He's like, you know, I didn't even need to.

Jesus will say I didn't even have to.

Yeah, right.

Killing the Mob is a book I know that you would like because it deals with death, destruction, and corruption.

You know, something that

I deal in every day.

Enough of that.

Yeah, yeah.

So, Bill, what do you think?

Because there are so many stories that came out that are mind-blowing this week.

What do you think the big story of the week is?

You know, I think it was the overreach on

the Supreme Court, and it's a little bit convoluted.

Okay.

So, my theory, and I wrote a column, it's on billoriley.com right now, the trifecta of chaos.

My theory, and I think I'm alone in holding this, is that the American people are now wising up to the danger of the far left.

All right.

So they see a diminished president, Joe Biden.

They see

that he'll basically sign anything you put in front of him.

And then

it just keeps getting worse.

And it is obvious that the progressive left wants to take over the country in a way that would neutralize any opposition to them.

So

what makes you say wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

What makes you say that it is apparent?

What makes you say that Americans are starting to win?

We have a political party basically saying we don't want a nine-member Supreme Court.

We want 13 so our diminished president can appoint four other far-left loons to the court.

And then you have a political party saying, you know, we don't want any restraint in the Senate at all.

We want to knock all of that filibuster 60-vote threshold out so that when we have power, we can pass laws that say we're going to seize Glenn Beck's property in Texas and

wherever you are.

So hang on just a second.

I've buried all my land in Idaho.

They'll never find it.

That's how you feel.

That's how I feel.

But if I may quote America, at least what I've heard this week.

Well, listen,

I don't think you're really giving the folks fair credit here.

In my column, I say that 50% of the electorate just is checked out.

The same way they checked out in the Revolutionary War.

And I make that comparison in the column.

I say, look, when we were fighting for our freedom, 50% of the colonists were on the sidelines, some of them even rooting for King George.

It's always been that way.

But I think the people who are paying attention

know

that a huge mistake was made

electing Joe Biden.

It doesn't matter how much you hate Trump, all right?

And giving power to the progressive community.

It is an enormous mistake, one of the worst mistakes ever in American history.

Because now you see that these people have no respect for traditional America, democracy, or capitalism.

They want to wipe it out.

So I think you are correct on that.

The minute

Kamala Harris becomes president

and assuming that Joe Biden slips away slowly in a speech or sleep, which is really the same thing,

when she becomes president, she is so absolutely unlikable that the American people will say, uh-uh, uh-uh.

But I'm not sure that anybody's paying attention right now.

They're paying attention back.

When gas prices, I hope you're right.

When gas prices rise 93% since Inauguration Day, and people know that.

Now we have groceries rising.

Now, I said this in the very beginning.

I said, you put Joe Biden in there.

He's going to tax you blind.

Now, he's going to tell you he's not, but the reality is he's going to.

And now you're getting it at the gas pump and

in the grocery store.

Now, those are right direct between the eye stuff.

Now, can people

understand why that's a tax?

Yeah, that's debatable.

Some of them are not going to understand it, but they're all not going to be happy about it.

So the Republican Party, as paltry as it is, has an opportunity in 2020 to take both houses of Congress.

Now, if the Republicans can blow it, they'll find a way.

They'll find a way to blow it.

Because if there was an effective opposition to the progressive movement, that movement would be over already.

And the other wild card in this whole thing is that the corporate media, as we've seen in the Georgia election, all right,

in the Georgia vote reform, the corporate media is squarely behind the progressive movement now, squarely behind it.

Now, I was happy to see Coca-Cola

come out and say, yeah, we want the all-star game moved to Denver.

I was happy.

You know why?

Because if you look at the ingredients of Coca-Cola, that is more damaging to your body than tobacco.

If you're drinking three, four Cokes or Diet Cokes every day, you are killing yourself.

That's quite a statement.

Hang on, hang on, hang on.

It's absolutely true, Beck.

Sugar is killing people.

Well, the good thing is, wait, wait, wait.

The good thing is Coke doesn't have any sugar in it, it has corn syrup.

Whatever.

So, high to fruit, high to what is it, high fruit

diabetes?

That's dying.

If you want diabetes in your senior years, drink as much Coke as you want.

Okay?

I knocked out all the sugar

in my life, and because there's great substitutes for it, you don't need it.

And I'm telling you, Beck, I mean, I was always a lean, mean machined.

Now I'm even leaner and meaner.

No sugar.

Yeah.

I'm nicer and fatter.

Yeah, and we all feel bad for you.

So, Bill, let's,

before we leave the Supreme Court, because I do want to go back to the Coca-Cola company here in just a second.

But before we leave the Supreme Court,

they're trying everything.

They're saying, we're not packing it, we're unpacking it, which there's so many, I know, but there's so many dummies out there that they will think that Donald Trump did something evil.

No,

I think that's over.

I really think it's over.

I hope you're right.

I hope you're right.

I'll prove it.

I'll prove it back.

You ready?

Yeah.

Nancy Pelosi came out and said, I'm not doing it.

Okay?

Because Nancy Pelosi knows,

all right, the wicked witch of the West knows

that this is over the top, that this is going to turn people against the progressive left.

So she said right away, no, I'm not introducing it.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait, she said yesterday, and I thought this was a brilliant tactic.

This is somebody who actually knows a little something of history, most likely because she lived it.

She said the growth of the U.S.

population and the size of the economy might necessitate expanding the size of the Supreme Court.

But I'm not doing it now.

But I'm not doing it now.

It was a theoretical argument from an 80-year-old woman, but the bottom line is she isn't going to introduce this Gerald Nadler.

Oh, my God.

This

bill that he and Marky, who's a flat-out communist communist up in Massachusetts, all right, has proposed.

So she's not going to do it.

Well, that's good.

And Jerry Nadler is becoming more and more ahead in pants.

All right,

let me cut out the sugar, too.

Yeah,

let me tell you, he's lost a lot of weight.

You know, he's lost.

Yeah, but that was a bypass, gastric bypass thing.

They put him upside down and put a staple in his stomach.

I'd take a staple or two.

Let me just take a quick one-minute break and back with Bill O'Reilly, the author of Killing the Mob, which comes out early next month.

Our sponsor this half hour

is My Pillow.

Now,

my pillow is

great.

I use it.

I sleep on it.

I sleep on their sheets.

They're fantastic.

I have to tell you, I always hated my dad when he would wear slippers and he'd come, you know, he'd come to,

I don't even know what he picked me up at because I never played basketball, but he would come to things that I was at, I don't know, the nerds club,

and he would get out of the car and he'd be wearing slippers.

And I'd be like, oh, dear, dad, what?

That's not my dad.

I don't know.

I just have a new pair of my slippers, something that Mike Lindell has just introduced, my slippers.

They have rubber on the bottom, so you can wear them inside and outside.

They are so unbelievably comfortable.

I am going to embarrass my children all of the time.

10 seconds, Station ID.

Welcome to the program.

Stacey Abrams tells Hollywood to stop boycotting Georgia, stop boycotting Georgia.

But you have Coca-Cola and everybody else now telling us and colluding the story that was at the beginning of the week, Bill, is something I've never read,

never thought I would read in America.

A hundred CEOs get on a conference call, a Zoom call on Saturday to decide how they're going to strategize together to make sure these draconian voting laws are not passed in states.

I didn't elect

the head of Coca-Cola to any office.

Is this going to wake up not only Democrats, but will it wake up Republicans who keep saying, well, it's a free market.

They can do whatever they do.

No, this is an oligarchy.

Well, I think what everybody has to understand is it's the same contagion that hit Hollywood and professional sports is now hitting the business community.

It's a contagion.

So

When you have powerful people like Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg and these people who run Hollywood basically put out the word, look, if you don't see it my way, don't expect to get a job.

So, Presto,

the whole motion picture and television industry is left-wing.

What a shock, right?

Same thing happened in professional sports.

Once LeBron James and athletes like him came out and said, yeah,

we're going to be Black Lives Matter, we're not going to really be upholding traditional America anymore.

Then all the players fell into line.

So in Davos, Switzerland, they have an annual CEO confab where they all fly in in private jets and then scream about global warming.

It's really amusing.

One of the funniest things in the world.

And at that Davos this year, they basically said, hey, we're all progressives now.

So if you want to be in the club, if you want to meet at a swanky restaurant in New York or Beverly Hills, you got to be a progressive.

That's what's happened.

All right, so they all say, okay, we'll be progressive because we want to have our parties in the Hamptons and everybody show up.

That's what we want.

That's what's happening.

These people don't know what the Georgia election law is.

There isn't one statement.

There isn't one statement by one CEO opposing the Georgia law that specifically objects to anything in it.

Oh, they don't want people to make it harder to vote.

It doesn't.

It doesn't make it harder to vote.

Okay?

And then I say to Major League Baseball, which is that was the biggest sports blunder in the history of sports.

I say, you can't have the Toronto Blue Jays anymore.

You got to pull them out of there because Canada requires an ID to vote.

Everybody's got to have an ID or you can't vote.

So bye-bye, Toronto Blue Jays, right, Rob Manfred.

Now, Rob is, you know, he's a guy that wears a mitt, and

wherever he goes, he's got a little mitt.

I mean, the guy is just, he's not a PhD.

He's in there to do what the team owners tell him to do.

I mean, that's what's happening.

So when people see this, they don't understand.

And I sympathize, but I know, I know the publishing industry.

I know the TV industry.

I know the movie industry.

I know who runs it.

And they put out the word.

You either fall in line behind us, think the way we think, or you don't work.

You don't get your book published.

You don't get your TV show on the air.

You see Disney, what Disney's doing?

Did you see that this week?

So Disney Company, which is probably the most high-profile American corporation in the world, they do two things this week.

They come come out and they say, you know, if you come to our theme parks in Anaheim or Orlando, we're changing our dress code.

So all of our employees can now cross-dress.

That means Annette can be cubby and vice versa.

Okay?

You can dress whatever you want because we want to be inclusive.

And in addition, if our employees at the parks want to have tats, want to have ink, they can.

So then I'm saying okay

family of four one day at Disneyland $600

$600 for a day and now Donald Duck's gonna have a tattoo on his beak okay

now is that really what we want in addition

the person who runs the ABC Entertainment Network Dana Walden comes out and says we are passing on high quality scripts.

They're not going to get on the air unless they have a certain number of marginalized people in the show.

So, goodbye Ten Commandments movie on ABC every Easter.

There's no marginalized people.

Well, I guess the Jews are marginalized.

Jews.

They're white.

Jews.

But they're never counted anymore by the left.

They're white.

Never counted.

Jul Brenner, see you.

Disney.

Thanks, Bill.

We'll be back with Bill O'Reilly.

We want to talk about the border and some of the other things that happened this week.

You know, Walt Disney wouldn't even let employees have a sideburn.

You couldn't have sideburns to work with Walt Disney when he was alive.

I'm sure he'd be fine with a tattooed cross-dresser.

He'd be totally fine.

This is the Glenback Program.

Here's a fun fact.

We're all getting older every single day, and someday we're all going to be as old as Bill O'Reilly.

One of the things that comes with age is aches and pains, and the joints start to wear down, and the normal exercise of everyday life begins to catch up with you,

which I'm telling you, exercise.

It's bad for you.

Anyway, most of what causes this pain and a lot of other forms of pain is inflammation, especially in the joints.

Inflammation is causing most of our pain.

And there is something there to help inflammation.

Yeah, I know, I know.

I've tried Advil 800.

You got a doctor to actually prescribe that to you?

Man, I sometimes just do it on the black market and I take four of them.

Yeah, 200 each.

I just buy them like that instead of waiting for that prescription.

I know, I'm a rebel.

This is not a drug, and it's

better than ibuprofen 800.

My goodness, that doesn't work.

Anyway, Relief Factor.

Try it now for three weeks.

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

You'll know if it works for you in the first three weeks.

Bill O'Reilly joins us from billoreilly.com.

And I want to talk to you a little bit about the border.

I want to touch on this.

It appears that 29% of Americans now approve of Joe Biden's handling of the border crisis, but only 27% of Hispanics approve of Biden's handling of the crisis.

25% of white Americans.

However, 56% of black Americans didn't, if I remember right, Bill, didn't black Americans, weren't they traditionally the ones that are most against migrants coming in, or I should say illegal aliens, because their jobs have been affected the most.

So what does this say?

Who did the poll?

But

according to

shoot.

Let me look for it, Bill.

Okay.

So, most of these polls are what they call push polls.

They have a question and they have an answer all ready to go.

So, they'll poll, but they won't take, you know,

if you're going to rely on a poll, you have to trust the poll.

Right.

It's Quinnipiac.

Quinnipiac.

Yeah.

Not a good outfit.

Boy, used to be.

Used to be.

Maybe during the Civil War, they got, we think it might

be a conflict.

But they were awful in the last two presidential elections.

Yeah.

And, you know, it's a fine school in Connecticut, by the way.

Their polling outfit is ridiculous.

So I don't believe a word of it.

I think, I don't know, 70, 75% of Americans are absolutely appalled at the human suffering that the Biden administration has brought to the world

because of its refusal to

enforce United States immigration law.

This has caused tremendous human suffering.

Horrible.

Horrible.

And the press, the corporate media will not say that because they're woke.

They say, oh, you know, we're letting poor people in.

Yeah, you're letting some poor people in.

That's true.

But many more

are being harmed in ferocious ways by the cartels who smuggle people to the border.

Oh, many,

many more.

Even sexual assault and rape after they arrive at one of our detention facilities or spas or whatever they're calling them now.

Well,

whenever you have unattended people in great numbers, you're going to have abuse of people.

So the Biden administration essentially said to everyone in the world, if you can get here, you can stay here.

It's kind of like Barack Obama.

If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.

So President Biden said quite clearly: if you get here, you can stay, and we'll pay for your health care.

We'll put you in our public school system.

Eventually, you'll get amnesty and become an American citizen.

So why wouldn't you, if you're living in a hellhole

in Honduras or El Salvador, and I've been to all these countries, Guatemala,

and I've reported from them, and I know what the situation is there.

But here's the good news.

Vice President Harris is going to go to these countries, and she's going to solve the underlying problem.

The underlying problem is that women in those countries don't have pantsuits like she does.

So you can expect we can have

billions of dollars in our next stimulus bill of pantsuits going down.

Tamala Harris has no blanking clue, nor does she care about solving this problem at all.

If you want to do the underlying problem thing, you've got to go back to the Aztecs and the Incas back, and I know you're very familiar with them, and the Spanish conquistadors.

That's where it started.

And it has not been solved since then.

Okay, let me slightly shift here on the border thing.

Border agents now are performing fewer DNA tests, so they're not catching the fake families under Biden.

And somehow or another, this is more compassionate than doing the DNA tests.

When you have 150,000 people coming across every month and in detention centers, you're going to do DNA tests.

You're lucky you can give them water and food.

Yeah, I know.

150,000 foreign nationals.

And there's Joe, Joe Biden, you know, well, we're going to put Kamala Harris in charge.

She's going to solve it.

And Kamala Harris goes, I'm not going there.

I'm not going anywhere near there.

Bill, let me switch to coronavirus.

They are trying to get...

Chelsea Clinton is mounting a campaign to get Tucker Carlson thrown off of Facebook because

he just said, you know, I don't understand how this is working.

We get the virus and then you say it's still not good enough.

When is it going to be good enough?

Well, you apparently can't ask those questions.

Give me your thinking on Fauci and how this is playing out and where America is on the coronavirus, the tests or the vaccines and the shutdowns.

All right, that's a big, big order.

I know, I know.

But I will do it.

Number one, Chelsea Clinton wants to be a congressperson from New York.

So, of course, she's going to attack anybody who's conservative.

That's number one.

Everybody should know.

Chelsea wants to run, and that's what that's all about.

Number two, I have never in my entire life listened to anything that Anthony Fauci has ever said.

He's like a little puppet to me.

He's like a little,

you know, hello, Senor Wentes.

That's that, you know, when I see him, I go,

who is this?

Now, I do

have

some faith in the CDC in Atlanta.

So we go to their website and I do read what they say, and I do take it seriously.

From the very beginning, I have told my friends, family, and my public that I think they should be vaccinated.

Now, after they get vaccinated, it's basically up to the individual states to lay out

what the public health rules are.

I think that's reasonable.

So I was in Florida last week, and Florida is much different than New York.

And I think the Florida system is better.

But when you have 8.5 million people crammed into a very small area in New York City, you've got to be a little.

Look, I was just last week I was up in Connecticut, and it is full-fledged

phobia and panic.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's not even, it's not even in reality anymore.

Right.

If you go to Yale, they actually have flamethrowers that they'll

put on you if you don't have a mask.

It's almost that bad.

Really, it's almost that bad.

I was there.

Listen, it depends on the state.

It depends on what part of the country you are in.

So we all want to wipe this thing out.

It looks to me like it will be under control by Memorial Day.

We have 40% of Americans vaccinated now.

That'll go to 50 by early May.

And then it'll keep progressing.

So I think we should all work together and say, look, let's just try to be reasonable here.

We have to get back on track.

We have to live our lives.

We can't be in this ridiculous panic all the time.

So let's just be reasonable.

Is that crazy?

No, it's not.

I'm not panicked.

I don't know why everybody is panicked.

Let me switch gears.

We've got a compact amount of time, and I want to hit a couple of things.

Project Veritas came out this week with a video of CNN.

I've heard some people say this is a technical director, which is the guy who just says, take four.

Take one.

Yeah.

Back, back.

Is there anybody on the planet that doesn't know CNN's in the tank?

Right.

The progressive left.

Right.

Bueller, anyone.

Right.

Come on.

I mean, to me, that argument is, well, yeah, even the guy who empties the garbage cans.

That's right.

Clearly knows.

Everybody knows.

And if you don't follow it, you're not going to work at CNN.

Okay?

You have to be in lockstep.

Right.

That's what corporate media is now.

Don Lemon Lemon said the only reason why the ratings are down is

because Trump is gone, and that was worth it.

Look, I like Don.

He amuses me.

I don't watch his show, but I see clips.

And he lives out near me on Eastern Long Island.

I don't think he's a bad guy, but he's making a lot of money, Beck.

No one watches him.

All right.

So when you can make a lot of money and no one watches you, that's a good deal.

So he wants want to say whatever they tell you to say, and that's what he's doing.

So

I got out, I finished my deal with Simon ⁇ Schuster, which I celebrated because it was taken over by the guy who gave Hillary Clinton $8 million for her last book, which sold like 400 copies.

Now you have Hunter Biden's beautiful things.

No one's buying it.

Everybody's fed up.

They don't want Hunter Biden.

They don't care that he was a crackhead.

They do care.

They do care that Hunter Biden made millions of dollars because his father was the vice president.

They care about that.

I mean, that's nepotism.

That's U.S.

Grant kind of stuff.

Grant did the same thing with his brother.

But, you know, whether Hunter Biden, I mean, please.

So he's on all the shows.

He's everywhere.

And the New York Times, ah, it's the greatest book.

And it sold less than 10,000 books the first week.

The advance on Killing the Mob right now is 60,000 copies.

We've sold 60,000 copies, and it's not going to be out for another two weeks in advance.

Now to sell less than 10,

and I will tell you that you are selling books

not like in the old days, but

you are a powerhouse in book sales.

Yeah, Killing Crazy Horse, with no bookstores open, Killing Crazy Horse has sold close to 600,000 copies.

It's remarkable.

And I did not mention Hunter Biden's name in either Killing Crazy Horse or Killing the Mob.

I consciously stayed away from that.

Last night, the Hunter Biden story was, his book was 208th on Amazon's bestseller list.

But number four.

But number four on the New York Times bestseller list for combined print and e-books.

I'm not going to comment.

I need the New York Times to put my book.

But look,

I want to know who bought Hunter Biden's book.

Just please, at billorilly.com, bill at billorilly.com.

Please, just contact me and tell me why you spent $20

on Hunter Biden's book.

May I just, do I have to take the time to email or can just tell you

that China.

China.

What?

China Why?

China.

That would be the only one.

That would be the only one.

You know what?

Let's pay him in buying his books.

I'm going to tell you the truth.

He got a

dislike because I'm so smart.

They wanted a former crack addict.

China is looking for a way to launder money to pay him, buy his book.

All right.

Bill O'Reilly from billo'reilly.com and his new book, Killing the Mob,

is out in a couple of weeks.

You can order it now.

What is it that will help your house sell fast?

Well, may may I suggest you get the right real estate agent one that in your market has sold the most houses they sell them fast for the most amount of money if you're looking for a house the one who has the highest customer service

888727 Beck is the phone number to call.

Bill O'Reilly, always on fire on Fridays, and

no, no exception there.

We have

a bunch of stuff to get into here before the end of the day.

I want to tell you about tonight on YouTube, we are doing a very special event, Studios America 250th anniversary power hour.

Basically, what we're talking about here is a situation where we've done this once before and

it could be a mess.

We're talking about one shot of beer per minute for an entire hour while we attempt to talk coherent politics.

And the beginning of the conversation is really mildly sensible and then it kind of careens out of control.

It is a really fun night and I will say.

Because it's been like a year before we've been, you know, since we've been able to see each other, we did one of these during the actual, you know, real lockdown period, and it's just a great way for everyone to kind of hang out and let loose a little bit.

Again, obviously, safety first, but we'd love to have you participate with us.

If you go to my YouTube channel, it's youtube.com slash stew doesamerica.

I'm going to be there.

Sarah Gonzalez from the News and Why It Matters is going to be there.

She's kind of like our somewhat sober

designated driver.

Because if she drinks this much beer, she'd explode.

She's way too tiny.

But Chad Praythrow will be there.

Spencer Corson will be there.

Jason Buttrell will be there.

It's a lot of fun, and it's just a ridiculous way to let loose on a Friday night.

And who knows, we may solve all of the world's problems.

I mean, that's pretty much the expectation going in.

Again, you can't miss this.

It's youtube.com/slash Stew DoesAmerica tonight, 9 p.m.

Eastern.

It's only on YouTube, available free for everyone.

It's been a long year, so let's try to forget as much as possible of it.

Check it out tonight at 9 p.m.

Eastern, right after a brand new Stu Does America on YouTube.

You can check it out there.

And, of course, subscribe to the podcast.

We have more coming up with Glenn in just a second.

All right, you sick twisted freak.

Coming up in today's show, we have Dan Bongino, also Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

Oh, and Chad Braither is going to check in.

A great, great show for you, plan.

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

This

is

the Glenbeck Program.

Yes.

Yes, it is.

Hello, America.

It's Friday, and you have locked into the Glenbeck program, where Stu and I have planned a great show.

I mean, it's not going to happen today, but we have a great show for you coming up at some point.

Today, we have Dan Bongino, Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

We also are going to be talking about the Supreme Court,

the shooting in Minneapolis, oh,

and everything you need to know about COVID.

All of it coming up.

We begin in 60 seconds.

Yeah.

Hey, Stu, can we schedule that show maybe

for next week, next Monday or Tuesday?

I feel like anything before 2023, we're just rushing it.

Okay, all right.

Well, let me go check the calendar.

You go ahead and do Genucell.

Sounds like a good idea.

Well, you know, look,

we have a

very specific thing from Genucell, our friends at Genucell.

And, of course, they have all the best stuff for your skin.

Genucelle has been dealing with this for a very long time.

They have

a skin line that has been, my mom has been using for a while, and she loves it.

And she acts like she doesn't want, she just wants to compliment the previous gift.

But what she's doing, clearly, is

asking for more.

And I mean, I can see the tactic coming from a mile away.

You know, she'll just be like, oh, thank you.

By the way, that Genucell stuff you got me, I love it.

I use it every day.

It's fantastic.

I'm almost out.

Yeah.

I mean, man.

Because I do this so often, I'm just running super low.

Wouldn't you love women to do that on everything?

Yeah, actually.

Would you just love to be told, you know,

hey, that sex that we had eight months ago, I'm running low.

I don't think that's ever going to happen.

But I will say, JennyCell's got, they always hook you up with all the free giveaways and you can get the entire line.

It's fantastic.

Go to jennycelle.com, G-E-N-U-C-E-L.com.

They'll hook you up with free shipping and all sorts of different free gifts.

And it's the best in skincare.

So why not take them up on it?

G-E-N-U-C-E-L.com.

So this week we have talked about communist China-level tactics that the Canadian government is using against at least one Christian church in Edmonton.

They occupied the church building.

They put up fences around it, and police in riot gear dispersed people worshiping outside.

Now, there is no reason for this.

The church has not been super spreader events.

They have not had a single person contract COVID or spread COVID.

But it's all in the name of safety.

Now, this is happening right in America's backyard in Canada, the land where, if you believe Justin Trudeau, is one of the wokest paradises on the planet.

It's like Hawaii, just really, really cold and no beach.

The court found the California law unconstitutional here in America that was pretty much the same thing.

Supreme Court decision overturned last week California's COVID restrictions that prohibit more than three households from gathering in-home for religious activities.

The court found that California's law was unconstitutional, reasoning that the state seemed to favor secular activities with fewer restrictions.

The majority opinion says California treats some comparable secular activities more favorable than at-home religious exercise, permitting hair salons, retail stores, personal care service, movie theaters, private suites, and sporting events and concerts, indoor restaurants, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Now, the New York Times has said the only reason why they've done this is because they've become so radical, so radical.

Now, this is a good thing that they ruled this.

For the moment, there is a majority of justices on the court who actually believe in the Constitution.

It's another victory for religious freedom in America, and it's great.

Until it sinks in that it is the Supreme Court that is the only thing standing in the way.

Now, this is not rocket science for anybody who knows the Constitution.

This one is easy.

It's freedom of religion.

It is the very first fundamental right listed in the First Amendment.

So there are five rights in the First Amendment.

This is the first of the first.

It's not brain surgery.

Why in 2021 a group of nine old people need to confirm that, yes, you can gather in your house and read that Bible

doesn't inspire any kind of confidence when it's a 5-4 vote.

Naturally, John Roberts voted with the other leftists against overturning this rule.

The Supreme Court of the United States upheld your constitutional right to pray with others in your home by one vote.

Now we are looking at the end of our Constitution because of nine old people.

But it's about to get a lot worse.

Here's Senator Ed Markey and Representative Gerald

Nadler introducing the legislation to now have 13 Supreme Court justices.

Go ahead.

We are here today because the United States Supreme Court is broken.

It is out of balance and it needs to be fixed.

Ah, does 5-4 seem broken to you?

Does that seem out of balance?

I mean, it's close.

It's close.

Too close for me.

Out of balance would be 9 to zip on everything.

It's not.

But it's out of balance.

But don't worry.

Nadler's there saying this is not.

I love this.

This is not an attempt to pack the court.

Some people will say we're packing the court.

We're not packing it.

We're unpacking it.

We're unpacking it.

Oh.

So abortion isn't killing a baby.

It's just unbirthing a baby.

Is that do I have this right, Stu?

Is this how this works?

We're not defunding the police.

We're unpaying for the police.

That's all we're doing.

I like that.

We're not identifying as a different gender.

We're just unsexing that person.

Critical race theory.

We're not pushing that.

It's just unwhitening of America.

That's all that is.

Filibuster.

It's just un-McConnelling

the Senate.

That's all that is.

That's basically what they're doing.

It is.

We're not boycotting Georgia.

We're unvisiting Georgia.

Oh my gosh.

I can't.

I mean,

let me ask you.

I don't think they have the votes to do this,

but I don't think they care.

I really don't think they care.

Marky said, this is the reason why we need to get rid of the filibuster

to a point.

Can you imagine?

Can you even imagine if Donald Trump even tried to do anything close, even suggested this, and all the Republicans were like, no, we're not doing that.

Can you imagine if just Donald Trump said, hey, we should do this, they would go out of their mind.

Well, it's funny because he did suggest getting rid of the filibuster, and they did go out of their mind.

Really?

Yeah, really.

It's shocking.

Now, I did not suggest adding Supreme Court justices.

He just went through.

That happened once before with FDR, and even the Democrats were like, that's crazy.

Yeah, you know, come on.

Come on, old man.

What did polio get all the way up to the brain?

There was a clip, we can maybe pull it up here from, I played it the other night, but it was from

Joe Biden,

this Joe Biden, who you might not recognize because he's able to coherently get through several sentences in a row.

So it's not like the new Joe Biden, but it was an old Joe Biden back in like the 80s.

And Joe Biden,

he knew about that FDR attempt to pack the cord, and he thought it was a bonehead idea.

Right,

a bone-headed idea.

Well, it was a bone-headed idea.

By the way, it's not that I forget things, I'm just unremembering them.

Here's the clip of Joe Biden.

No, we don't have it.

Well, it's not that we lost it, we unfound it.

That's it.

So, let me ask you this:

We have learned a lot.

We have learned America, you could actually stick forks in them.

The American citizen, the government could come to your house and say, that's for coronavirus, and just jab a fork in your chest.

Everybody's got a fork stuck in their peck.

And we'd be like,

I mean, it's, I mean, it's for coronavirus.

Dr.

Fauci said we should do it.

Coronavirus.

I mean, yeah,

they've done everything to us, and they've learned.

People are not going to do anything.

And they want people to rise up because they're prepared to go, extremists.

What's going to happen

if they actually

get serious about passing this?

And it looks like it's going to happen.

Does America do anything?

Or do do they just pull the fork out and go, I'm going to eat while I got a fork.

I'll stick it back in when the government comes by.

I don't know.

I mean, this is so extreme.

That's why the filibuster is really the only issue here, because they can do all of these things and will do all of these things if they can get that filibuster passed.

No, he's not an extremist.

He's very moderate.

He's very moderate.

It is.

Well,

he was at one point very moderate.

President Roosevelt clearly had the right to send to the United States Senate and the United States Congress a proposal to pack the court.

It was totally within his right to do that.

He violated no law.

He was legalistically, absolutely correct.

But it was a bonehead idea.

It was a terrible, terrible mistake to make, and it put in question

for an entire decade the independence of the most significant body, including the Congress in my view, the most significant body in this country, the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

First of all, he's totally wrong on that.

Congress is the Supreme Branch, but still,

all of that being said,

this is where everybody was.

This is where everybody's been for 50 years.

And it was only one guy that wasn't there in the 30s.

It was like, well, hang on.

Let me wheel up here and get to a microphone.

And I got a new idea.

Let's just pack the court.

But they're not unpacking.

And by the way, I would like to ask you, I don't want you to forget that Joe Biden said that.

I just want you to unlisten to the clip we just played for you.

Our sponsor this half hour is Relief Factor.

Now, John lives in California.

He's been suffering from neck and back pain for years.

And I hate to say this, but I am contractually obliged to point out the pain in your neck may have something to do, John, with where you live.

I'm just saying.

John's doctor not only couldn't find the right medication to help his pain, John's doctor was also suffering from pain.

You know, that's probably not the doctor I go to.

I got a back problem.

It's just killing me, Doc.

Oh, I know.

I got one, too.

What is it you want?

Nothing.

Thank you, Doc.

Fortunately, for both John and the doctor, John heard me talking about Relief Factor on the radio, and he decided he was going to give it a try.

After all, after all, his doctor couldn't help him.

Sure enough, within a couple of weeks of starting to take it, John's pain started to go away.

Eventually, it was gone altogether, and he didn't keep it a secret.

He went back to his doctor and said, let me write you a prescription.

Just call this number.

John's doctor started using it, and he also is now out of pain.

You don't need a prescription for this because it's not a drug.

It was developed by doctors, but 70% of the people who try it, it actually works for.

Now, you might be part of the 30%, and that's why they have the three-week trial period, because you should know within three weeks.

And nobody wants you to buy a bunch of stuff that just not working for you.

So if it's not working within three weeks, it probably won't.

Try it for three weeks and then see if you want to order more.

Order the quick start trial pack.

It's $19.95.

It'll run for three weeks.

Take it as directed and see if you don't find relief from your pain.

800-500-8384-800-500-8384.

It's relieffactor.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Yeah.

Dan Bongino joins us in just a second.

I'm going to surprise him and put Geraldo Rivera on the phone, too.

Oh, my gosh, is that guy obnoxious?

Geraldo Rivera is, I don't know why he's still on television.

I mean, I think it's a pact with the devil.

Have you known?

The guy's 70.

He looks the same as he did when he was like in the 1970s.

But anyway, he was on Fox with

Dan Bongino.

And he's like, yo, Dan, you're just a bomb thrower and a name caller.

You're just a fathead.

And it's like, wait, wait, didn't you just call him a a name?

And Dan just, I mean, Dan just was sitting there going, I can't talk while he's on.

And he was trying to have a reasonable conversation about guns.

They're now talking about taking guns away from the police.

Now, I just want to, I would just like to do an autopsy on this body here.

And let's just remember how we got here.

So

the only ones that should have guns are the police.

And only the police should be able to have guns and they should be the ones protecting our schools and our neighborhoods.

And you don't need a gun because you don't know how to use a gun.

But now the police shouldn't have guns.

Well, that's a good idea.

Wow.

So the police shouldn't have a gun.

And you shouldn't have a gun.

Who would have a gun?

I mean, besides Bloomberg,

you know, people like Michael Moore, you know, besides the gifted and enlightened, who would have a gun?

Just the bad guys.

Not even the police would have a gun.

And they're talking now about, this is from the mayor of Minnesota.

Take away the guns from the police for traffic stops.

Oh, that's a good idea because traffic stops are never dangerous for cops.

No, never.

There's never been a police officer injured at a traffic stop.

That's never.

Never, never happened.

You know, I remember in this was in the 80s.

I just moved to Baltimore, and at least where I'm from, the small town that I lived in my whole life was Mount Vernon, Washington.

And I remember my dad getting pulled over a couple of times.

I got pulled over before.

And in my town at the time, you would get get out of your car and you would go meet the police officer halfway.

You know, you'd just get out of your car and you'd be like, hey, Bill, yeah, sorry, what's, you know, what's the problem?

Yeah, dude,

you're speeding.

And I know your dad and he's not going to like it.

And here's a ticket.

So I moved to Baltimore.

I was probably 22, maybe.

And I hadn't been pulled over since, you know, I was a kid, once in Texas, and that scared the snot out of me.

I don't know how you drive up there in the Yankee parts of the country, but here in Texas, we obey the law.

So I'm in Baltimore, and I'm pulled over, and it's like my first day in Baltimore.

I have no idea where I am, really.

I don't know anything about the news or what's been going on.

And I'm pulled over on the highway, and I get out of my car.

And all of a sudden, the doors open on the squad car, the guns come out, and they're kneeling behind the doors and they're like get back into the car

and i'm like okay oh okay

okay

then they approach the car guns drawn pointed at me and they're and they said uh

what the hell are you doing and i'm like speeding i guess Is this the way you always pull people over?

And they, you know, once they realized I was a complete and total imbecile, they said, we just had a police shooting.

Don't ever get out out of your car.

Don't ever get out of your car.

It's the fastest way to be shot.

So now when I'm pulled over, because I just don't care, I still get out of my car.

No, I stay in my car and I keep my hands at 10 and 2.

It's the most dangerous time for a cop.

And we're talking about taking, I mean, these guys are, they feel like they are on the front lines every day.

Everybody is blaming them for everything they do.

And now you want to disarm them.

Who's going to protect you?

Here's the clip.

I don't believe that officers need to necessarily

have weapons,

you know,

every time they're making a traffic stop

or engaged in

situations that don't necessarily call for

weapons.

We know that there are other many other jurisdictions or even around the world where that is not

necessarily the case.

It's not needed.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

In Switzerland.

The amazing thing here is

these people,

you know, they always say, defer to the experts, defer to the experts.

Is that mayor an expert in law enforcement?

Is that the expert?

First of all,

I'm going to listen to the experts, but I'm not going to defer to the experts.

I'm going to use my brain and listen to what that expert is saying.

Then I'm going to listen to another expert, and then I'm going to do my own homework, as I recommend you do.

You are in charge of the country.

You are in charge of your own freedom.

But to put these guys into a squad car, and I would love to see the Minneapolis police go up to that mayor and say, Hey, here's the keys to the squad car.

You go out and patrol for a week.

No, you just do it.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

You do it.

And you, city council people, here's another squad car for you.

And you get a squad car, and you get a squad car, and you get a squad car.

This is the Glenback Program.

We have Dan Bongino coming up in a second.

Also, you don't want to miss hour three.

We've got some really funny stuff and some great stuff coming up, but also, I think it's an hour three where I'm going to be talking about what's coming.

It's inside the house.

It is,

the economy is on

the edge.

Now, they're going to tell you all kinds of different things, but the economy is on the edge.

There's an article today that I read.

America,

you might be headed towards a collapse like Greece.

Do you remember what that was like?

Please refinance your loan.

Please get out of these high-interest credit card debts.

Please get your financial house in order.

Please.

Call American Financing now.

Come on, we're in this together.

We all need to be solid so there's somebody left to rebuild this.

Our next guest is a friend of the program, friend of mine, and somebody that I have a business opportunity I'd like to suggest.

Dan Bongino is joining us.

Dan, have you ever thought about signing a big deal to go on a tour with Geraldo Rivera?

Because you'd never have to go because you never get a chance to talk.

So you could make money literally in your sleep.

First of all, let me ask you, Dan.

I love it.

I'm always open for a business opportunity.

I love that.

Let's quickly let you know.

Let me just ask you first.

How are you feeling?

How are you doing?

Yeah, doing good.

I appreciate that.

Thanks for asking.

Doing okay.

Doing okay.

So always praying every day.

Doing good.

How long away are you or how far away are you from getting all clear?

Well, on May 3rd, I have a scan out at MD Anderson in Houston and hoping that one turns up negative.

And, you know, if it does, it's a battle for the rest of your life.

You know, you always got to go scan all the time, but let's hope it's okay.

I think it is.

We're praying for you.

All right.

Let's talk a little bit about the insane idea now from the mayor of Minneapolis of taking guns away from police officers, but really only at traffic stops, because that's not dangerous at all for them.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Listen, there are two scenarios in policing that pretty much every cop, and I know you know a lot of them, we'll tell you that, that are the most dangerous, traffic stops and domestic violence calls.

The most dangerous.

I would say hands down.

Now, why is that?

You know, if you're thinking logically, not like, you know, the mayor of Brooklyn Center who said that absurdity there, that they shouldn't have guns on some traffic stops.

The reasons why, if you're using reason, are self-explanatory.

We're visual creatures, right?

We're not bats.

We're not dogs.

You know, bats use echolocation.

Dogs use olfaction and smell.

We're visual creatures.

So when you're approaching someone in the street outside of a vehicle, you can typically ask them to see their hands.

So Glenn,

this is really going to be crazy for the liberals.

You can see the hands.

You know, eyeballs don't shoot, knees don't shoot, elbows don't shoot, fingers do.

Fingers are located on hands.

This is all news to liberals, okay?

So you can see them.

The problem when you're approaching a vehicle and why they're so dangerous is a vehicle is a contained box on wheels.

Again, news to liberals.

You can't see what's inside the vehicle until you approach the vehicle.

And if someone is going to shoot you, God forbid, as a police officer, and you have to react to it, they know what they're going to do before you know how to react.

So by the time you see it, you could be already dead, tragically like that officer in New Mexico we saw that video for.

So again, this is just reason.

I know that's difficult for liberals to get through their heads, but that's the stupidity of asking an officer in his most dangerous situation to not be armed with a firearm.

Dan, let me ask you, let me branch out here and let's look at the whole landscape of what's going on.

You've pushed people to the brink with COVID.

Even the director, national director of intelligence, has come out and said there are going to be revolutions around the world and instability because of COVID and because of what's going to happen to economies, and people aren't able to get goods and services, they're not able to go to work, et cetera, et cetera.

So the director of national intelligence says there's a problem and it's going to be revolutions.

It will take semi-stable countries and destabilize them because there will be migrants that rush into those countries and destabilize that country.

We have all these things going on.

The Supreme Court now, maybe 13, maybe the filibuster.

Hey, let's make Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C.

a state.

What is going to happen here?

Well,

I hope this conversation we're about to have is looked at in four or five years and everybody says, oh, Dan and Glenn, that was all crazy.

I mean that.

I genuinely hope that this conversation is laughed off in a few years.

Unfortunately,

it won't be.

Because,

you know, I had an AT history class in high school, and the teacher was, he was a Democrat, but he was a smart guy.

And he said, you know, the reasons you don't have societal chaos in places like the United States, and you likely won't in the future, thank God, is because we have a middle class.

And people people in the middle class have a lot to lose.

You know, the rich are usually powerful.

They insulate themselves.

The poor have nothing to lose, a lot of poor people.

And countries with a lot of poor people, you see revolutions precisely because they have nothing to lose.

We have a pretty vibrant middle class, despite the left's protestations otherwise.

But you accurately stated in the corona era, where we've used coronavirus as an excuse to evaporate pretty much all of our God-given big R rights, right?

Glenn, I mean, let's walk them through one by one, right?

You previously thought you had the freedom to assemble.

Using coronavirus, the leftist says, no, no, you can't assemble.

Matter of fact, if we see you in groups of four or five or larger in a home praying, we're going to basically come in and either lock you up or prevent that.

You can't practice your religion.

You weren't allowed in church.

I mean, we could go through these rights one by one.

Even the rights of

government.

Right.

Yes, all of them.

All of them.

I mean, you and I are in conservative media.

There's a threat of being banned from the public space, the new public space on YouTube and Twitter every day.

Liberals don't have this problem.

So every one of those rights has been under attack using either the guise of identity politics or coronavirus.

So what's the consequence of that?

Well, the consequence is obvious.

You start to lose the middle classes.

Their businesses are taken away, their right to practice their religion, and you incentivize exactly what you open the conversation with.

People who have nothing to lose, unfortunately, to try and fight back.

You are a former Secret Service agent, and you're not just a Treasury agent, or, you know, I worked in a Secret Service in, you know, wherever.

You were actually in the White House when we first met.

I swear, I think you were the body double for Barack Obama because you look a lot like him from a distance.

And now a lot of liberals would be like, we should have targeted him.

Oh, Dan, it looks like his audio kind of cut out here.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Yep, we kind of lost him here in the middle.

I mean, that's what happens, you know, silencing, silencing the voices of conservatives once again.

Dan, I like how you picked that up.

That was just seamless.

See, as broadcast professionals, all of us, right?

I have the luxury of being taped a lot on my podcast, but doing some live fill-ins on Fox, boom, you bounce right in there.

And you just, you have to have a, you have to have a line ready to go in your head.

Like, here are my thoughts on the matter, right?

I like how you did that.

Very, very tight.

Thank you, Dan.

Can you guys hear me now?

Yeah, we can hear you now, Glenn.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

We have a lot of

how this happens.

You broadcast professionals bounce right in when there's a technical lap.

I love that.

Yeah.

Well, we're having a rainstorm here, but the state of Texas has guaranteed me that we'll never have a loss of power.

So I'm sure we're set.

So Dan,

you said and you watched these people and you told me the first time we met, the first time you really started questioning things was you were watching them watch me on Fox and you realized some of the things that I was saying, they were like, what the hell?

How does he even know this?

And it was just because I was

right?

Glenn, they were successful.

Remember that thing you did on Van Jones?

I mean,

you single-handedly at the time probably got them to say, hey, maybe this wasn't the best hire.

They could not take it.

So you and Hannity, they were obsessed with you.

Yeah, that wasn't a joke.

That wasn't hyperbolic when I told you that.

So, but you sat there and you said, I've had my eyes opened because

I'm seeing and I'm listening and I'm seeing what you're saying and then I'm seeing what they're saying and what they're doing.

And

I really need to stop because I'm in the wrong place.

I need to speak out and I need to stand against this.

And

I mean, you're seeing what's happening.

Do you believe that this is all just a matter of coincidence?

And

they're all really have the best ideas.

And gee, the Supreme Court thing, we're not really going to do that.

That's not really our intention.

I mean, they are acting like fascists and they're doing it with Coca-Cola and all the rest of them on board.

Listen, I'm glad you use the F word, and I'm not talking about the FCC F word.

I'm talking about the fascist word, because I said this on my show the other day.

Why are we not calling it what it is?

You know, we're living in a society where 40% of the people are living a lie.

We're living an actual lie right now.

Donald Trump colluded with the Russians.

I mean, we're, you know, the officer

in this shooting of Dante Wright was a racist.

No evidence of that whatsoever.

Nobody even knows that yet.

People are just living a lie.

And it's a time like that where it takes truth tellers to speak the truth and use the descriptions that are accurate for what's happening right now.

We have people, as we just discussed, trying to wipe out your freedom to practice religion,

your freedom to participate in an open forum and

in a new public space and social media.

People preventing your right to assemble.

This is scary stuff.

And when you realize, Glenn, that this is not an accident, as

you accurately just stated, this is being done intentionally, body blows to soften you up, to get used to the wiping out of your big R God-given rights and replacing it with subjective government values, all of a sudden you say, like I did when I left the Secret Service, holy, you know, fill in the blice.

I'm not going to be a part of this.

And I'm wondering where more truth tellers are.

I mean, you see the story yesterday with the whole Russia debacle, the intelligence community at the top, a lot of it's been corrupted.

You know, this whole Russia

bounty story was fake, totally fake.

And then we see this other story conveniently comes out the same day.

Oh, look, this Konstantin Kalimnik was the source for Paul Manafort, whatever.

And then we find out he was a source for the Obama administration, too.

This is all being done to foster a narrative, and none of it is to advance your big R God-given rights.

None of it.

And you have people, I don't know what their motivation is, but you have even Lori Lightfoot, the Adam Toledo shooting.

Are you familiar with this?

Yeah,

the guy that the guy was shot back in March, and they withheld the tape.

And let me just play real quick the 12 seconds of footage.

Stop!

Light!

Here they are.

Stop, stop, stop.

Show me your f ⁇ ing hand.

Stop it.

Stop it.

Josean.

Okay, they shoot him.

And when you see that, you're like, oh my gosh, they shot an unarmed man.

They never released the videotape.

They released that, but they never really released the videotape until, I think, a couple of days ago.

And if you look at it frame by frame, you see this.

Put the frame up.

There he is standing there with a gun behind his back.

Now, the cop, he noticed his...

Right.

Notice how he's standing, though, Glenn.

Bladed off.

So you can't see his right arm.

What did I just tell you?

Hand shoot, not elbows, not shoulders.

Right.

You can't see his right hand, the hand he has the pistol in.

When you see the gun, all of a sudden he drops the gun, but then the hand, because he's bladed off, you can't see anymore.

So he didn't know he didn't have the gun.

But nobody's going to tell you that.

This doesn't advance their narrative.

Dan Bongino, let me know about the test, man.

We'll keep praying for you.

God bless you.

Thank you for everything you're doing.

And thanks for being on the program.

Appreciate it.

Thanks, buddy.

Talk to you soon.

You got it.

Dan Bongino.

All right.

Hustlerturf.com.

That's That's hustlerturf.com.

Do we have our sync back yet?

Something happened at the

studio here at my house, and we've lost sync, so it's like watching a bad Godzilla movie.

I've always just wanted to do this.

The monster is destroying our power lines.

Quick.

Okay.

I had Glenn Greenwald on for a podcast,

And the podcast was supposed to come out yesterday, but I'll explain when you listen to the podcast, coming out today.

And he was fascinating.

And we talked to him about tech oligarchs.

Listen to this.

We as a planet are going for a giant oligarchy.

And it is high tech that is allowing them to squash anybody who's warning about it.

And media.

You know,

I think one of the most interesting things that has happened in the last last couple months, three months,

is

when Facebook and Twitter, basically all Silicon Valley platforms united to remove the sitting president of the United States from the internet, to deny him the opportunity to communicate with hundreds of millions of people.

The people who cheered that were American journalists because paradoxically, journalists who are supposed to defend principles of free expression, free speech, and a free press are in fact the most aggressive advocates for internet censorship.

They're the ones who agitate it for it.

But the people who denounced it were world leaders, including many who have no love loss for Donald Trump, like Angela Merkel in Germany and the Macron government in France, and even the president of Mexico, President Lopez Obrador, who said in a really eloquent press conference, what we're creating is this world government of these tech oligarchs answerable to nobody.

And that's what, you know, that's what Angela Merkel was saying too, was she was saying, look, you know, here in Germany, we do believe in regulations on speech, but if you're going to have them, it has to be the democratic process that decides them, the lawmakers who are elected by the people.

This is not that.

This is unelected overlords, oligarchs deciding who can and cannot be heard.

It's a fascinating interview.

We cover just about everything.

Glenn Greenwald on the podcast.

If you're blazetv.com/slash Glenn subscriber, you'll get it today.

Otherwise, wherever your podcasts are found, tomorrow.

This is the Glenn Bag program.

Thank you so much.

I want to tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

It's Roe vs.

Wade, the movie.

I don't know if you've seen it yet.

I can't believe that it

is being allowed to be seen on Google or Amazon, iTunes.

It's everywhere.

It is the true story about the Supreme Court argument of Roe versus Wade, and you see exactly what Planned Parenthood did, the lies and the extortion that were involved in that are pretty incredible.

John Voigt is in the movie.

It's not a documentary.

It's an actual movie.

You might want to watch it this weekend.

You can get it and download it now on your major cable or satellite carrier on demand.

It's also available on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play.

It is Roe vs.

Wade, the movie.

All right, last hour of the program, you sick, twisted, freak.

Chad Prayther

joins us.

Except I have a few things to rant on before we get to that coming up.

15 seconds.

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

It's Friday, which is usually a good thing, but there are a few stories that are going to make my freaking head explode.

And so I warn you, grab some duct tape, wrap your head tightly.

So when your head does explode, it's not going to stop it from exploding.

But you'll at least have all of the pieces of your skull.

So when you go back and you're in the emergency room, they're like, ah, I got another one.

Listen to the Glenn Beck program.

Yeah, yeah, we've got four with exploded heads.

Good thing they had the duct tape ready.

My rant.

Next.

The Glenn Beck program.

I got to start with something that makes me so angry.

Hey, let's talk about tax hikes, money printing, hedge funds collapsing, banks losing billions in bad leveraged bets.

All these things business is usual when you're in the business of eroding the value of the dollar as the current administration seems to be, and both the Republicans and the Democrats seem to be fine with all of this.

The collapse of the dollar is all but inevitable at this point.

And if you're smart, you're looking for ways to protect yourself.

You want to invest in something?

Here's an idea.

Invest in plywood.

Have you seen the price of plywood?

Hey,

invest in...

a gallon of gasoline.

You can double your money.

They're calling this just a spike and there are no big deals.

No, no, this is what's coming our way.

This is what's coming our way.

May I suggest that the dollar's dominance is about to collapse.

It could happen tomorrow.

It could happen in five years from now, but we are not going to be spending those paper U.S.

dollars for long.

With every single order placed now at Goldline this week for gold or silver, you're going to get this week only.

Today is the last day you'll qualify for the

mind your own business silver bar for free at no cost.

The bars were something that I suggested that they do and they stamp them with free with mind your business because that's what was on the original U.S.

coins.

Didn't say in God We Trust.

It said mind your business.

Boy, wouldn't you love that to be our motto now?

Mind your own business.

It's a goldline, goldline.com.

Call them now.

They're waiting for your call.

Just find out if gold or silver is right for you.

But please,

please consider having some of your money in something other than the U.S.

dollar.

You are going to regret it.

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

866 Goldline, 866Goldline or Goldline.com.

Stu

I just I need your help

on this story because I'm going to lose my ever loving mind

let's do it

the Biden administration now sees hydrogen as the Swiss Army knife for eliminating emissions

no the Biden administration and all types of industry now are saying we should develop domestic hydrogen as a linchpin in our economy and the linchpin in our effort to eliminate U.S.

emissions by 2050.

Now,

why would I possibly

be

wildly upset?

Well, I remember sitting out front of a, in Columbus Circle, out in front of the old CNN building,

and watching you get out of a car from General Motors

that ran on hydrogen.

Ran on hydrogen.

Yeah, I remember.

Zero emissions.

Zero emissions.

And you remember what I said to the maker GM?

Do you remember what I said about that?

I remember you saying it was a pretty amazing car

and that it could really easily be the future if it was just embraced.

Yeah, yeah.

And he said, no, the government has embraced it.

We've already got a deal with one of the major gas station chains.

They're going to be having hydrogen stations.

This is going to be done in the next 10 to 15 years.

Hydrogen is the future.

And I said, the left will never allow you to do it.

And what was the first thing the Obama administration did?

The first thing they did when they get into office.

You remember?

I don't remember the exact details.

I just remember they tanked the hydrogen car.

Yeah, they tanked the hydrogen car, and then when they gave GM a bailout, they said, Yeah, you need to go with a Chevy Volt because that thing's hot.

I mean, really hot.

Oh, I can't, I can't take

government getting involved in absolutely everything.

Hydrogen is the future.

Zero emissions.

Now, do you know how we make hydrogen?

Well, we don't have to mine anything.

All we need to do is take the water that is being used as a coolant for our nuclear power plants, and instead of having our nuclear power plants power down, which they don't ever have to do, power down in the middle of the night while everybody's going seepy seep,

they then make that they zap that water and take out the O

and get the H

that's how you make an unlimited supply

of energy it's really complex and very dangerous for the planet I can't

take it

Now,

in the no kidding, in fact, do we have the

Sherlock?

I think this is appropriate because I've got a few of these that are just a little obvious.

You have them, Sarah?

Okay.

Let me start with a story.

A majority of students now say it's unfair for non-college educated taxpayers to bail out student loans.

Really?

Have you found it?

She's still looking for it.

I would just.

We're having all sorts of stuff.

It's one of those things.

There you go.

Here it is.

No, sirlock.

Thank you.

No kidding.

No kidding.

It's unfair.

Now, I'd like to, now that you're using your thinking caps and you're like, oh, it's a wrong to have.

It's unfair to have somebody who didn't go to college pay for my college.

Good for you.

Who's thinking?

Now let me take you a step further.

For people who did go to college and they did come up somehow or another with all that money to pay for that college so they could have an education.

Why is it fair for them to pay for yours after they've paid for theirs?

Yeah, I know.

It's kind of a brain bender, isn't it?

It's very difficult to figure that one out.

cities with the BLM protests

cities with BLM protests

have had 6,000 more homicides than expected.

Ho ho!

Who would have seen that coming?

They had up to 6,000 more homicides.

Now what does that have to do with BLM protests?

I don't know.

Maybe we should maybe we should imagine a new way to police.

Well, good news is Portland plans to commit a combat crime now

with

unarmed

park rangers.

Now,

no offense to our park rangers,

but the last criminal I saw them try to get

said,

get your own picanic basket.

I mean,

if you're chasing down

Yogi and Boo-Boo,

maybe we go for the Park Ranger.

But if we're going for crime, I'm just reimagining things and thinking that's not probably the best idea.

Let's replace the police with park rangers.

Take away their guns, too.

Okay.

Maryland has become the first state now to repeal the police bill of rights.

That's going to work out really,

really well.

And

the latest word that you are not supposed to use

is mistress.

What do we call the

person?

Because, I mean, we could go what we call guys when they're breaking up a marriage.

We just call them dirt bags, slime bags.

Many people will use MFers.

Is that better than mistress?

Mistress sounds kind of nice and happy.

It does.

It's from the AP, too, that is doing this, right?

And they recommend using either lover or friend.

Friend, is it really descriptive enough?

Is it you know, I'm gonna go out on a limb here, Stu.

I'm gonna go out on a limb, but I think that if I come home

and uh,

I think when I come home, and there's lipstick all over my private parts, and my wife says, what's that from?

And I said, oh, I was just out with a friend.

I don't think it matters if you call her a friend or a mistress.

Now, shit, Sherlock.

My gosh, life is not this hard to figure out.

I'm going to bring in one of my favorite people.

He is really, really funny, Chad Prayther, coming up in just a second.

First, let me take one minute

to tell you about Rec Tech, the ultimate grilling experience.

When you go online, you're going to shop and shop for a REC Tech.

Now, I want you, they only sell them online, and they do that because they cut out the middleman.

I mean, no offense to Home Depot.

It's wonderful, especially with their new political arm.

Oh, when Home Depot's CEO comes out and tells us how we should vote, I love that.

When they collude with a bunch of other rich CEOs and they find a way to make sure they get Democrats elected forever, oh my gosh, I want to buy more lumber and nails.

But

RechTech cuts that middleman out.

And you might think you know what a great griller or smoker is.

But unless you've seen a RechTech, you have not seen a great

smoker or griller or even oven.

I mean,

it will bake things in it as well, and it holds a consistent temperature.

It has smart technology, it is the future of grilling.

Go to RekTech right now and A-B compare them.

If you're in the grill or in the market for a grill or a smoker, or you just like good food, RekTech, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com, RekTech.com.

10 Second Station ID.

Oh, goodness, goodness.

Oh, my deepest apologies to Mr.

Home Depot, who did not end up signing that letter.

They were one of the only companies that didn't, that were signed that company.

Good for them.

Oh, I thought.

Good for them.

You know, one of the founders is a big, big Trump supporter, big Republican.

And so they did not go on.

I think that is important to note, maybe?

I don't know.

I think maybe it is.

Maybe it is.

I'll continue to watch big

anything, including

big

lumber shopping place.

There you go.

Yeah.

We have Chad Prayer in.

Hello, Chad.

Hello, Glenn.

How are you?

I'm doing great.

I'm investing in plywood.

Can I tell you something?

You would have made a lot of money if you would have bought a lot of plywood last year.

And that's no doubt about it.

Yeah.

It's the only thing that stayed open, Glenn, was places that sell plywood.

That's why I think, I mean, everybody's looking to the, you know, the Wuhan lab.

You look at Sherwin-Williams, you know, every plant store and landscaping business and Home Depot.

I mean, they're the ones who profited off of this.

Yeah.

And that's a tangible commodity.

Yeah.

You can reach out and touch it.

I don't know what cryptocurrency is, but I can reach out and touch the plywood.

I will tell you this.

I think, you know,

in my family, we are starting to think like people, smart people did in the 1930s, and that is you start to store up on the things that people will barter for.

Because if, you know, if the dollar collapses,

there's going to be a transition period A.

And I mean, I just read something

from, gosh, who was it?

It was one of the guys who's, you know, his job is to think about how do we transition economies.

And if the dollar starts to really collapse, which it will, what happens is they'll go to a different kind of dollar.

It'll either be a global dollar or it'll be the U.S.,

the DUSD, which is the digital US dollar.

And banks will say you have X number of days or weeks to turn in all of your money and convert them to digital dollars.

However, this digital dollar is worth more.

So what you have in the bank, you bring $100, we'll give you $40 of digital dollars.

So you immediately cut your money at least in half.

And the more you wait,

the less value your dollar is worth and fewer people take your money.

So you got to take the deal or else, unless you have something else, unless you have, you know, some sort of durable good that

everybody will still want.

Yeah, that's why years ago I started stocking up on 22 bullets.

22 bullets.

Somebody's got to pay for these mistresses somehow.

Yeah.

You know, if you would have, if, if you would have stocked up, did you stock up on 22s?

I really did.

22.

Because that is, I mean, that's almost impossible to find.

I mean, everything now is, but for a long time, you, because my kids would shoot 22s and you couldn't, you couldn't find them anywhere.

No, they're hard.

It's impossible.

Ammo is so ridiculously, if you can find it, so ridiculously expensive at this point.

Every time you pull the trigger at the range, you don't hear a bang anymore.

You hear cha-ching.

You do.

You do.

Have you changed?

Because you're a shooter.

I'm a shooter.

I love competitive and shooting sports.

And

I don't even go to the range anymore.

It's dangerous.

It becomes more and more dangerous.

the more and more expensive they make ammunition because you can't afford to go and just blow through a lot of rounds.

No, you can't.

And there's something addictive about pulling that trigger.

What I've gotten into doing, Glenn, is long-range rifle shooting.

Not as many bullets being expended in that.

And there is some

fun stuff.

I got to tell you, I started that last year or two years ago with, I have a Lapua, and you're shooting a Lapua round.

It's like $6.

And so it's like, yeah, I didn't have to pull it 10 times.

I only pulled it once.

Well, see, that's the beauty.

I've got five kids, so I just send one downrange to pick up that bullet and bring it back.

The one I don't like, that's the one we

send down through no man's land.

So let me ask you this, a serious question.

We have over 400 million firearms in the country.

And, Stu, that's

400 million legally owned firearms, right?

I think that is legally owned.

I could be wrong on that, that, but I know the number is at least 400 million now.

Yeah,

this isn't Australia.

This isn't England.

You know, when England went to war,

they actually had to borrow guns.

And I'm not making this up.

They borrowed rifles from American hunters because they didn't have enough rifles to go to fight the Second World War.

And so we lent them our own private rifles until they could get on their feet.

This country could fight several wars with just what we have in private hands.

How do you think they expect to round any of those up?

There's no possible way.

There's no way.

And then you take in the will of the people.

The people aren't going to give those guns up.

I mean, they're going to do whatever they can.

I mean,

we've made a hobby out of stockpiling this stuff, right?

We're going to protect it with our life.

You know, it's pretty interesting.

You talk about the will of the people.

Do you realize Texas, we're kind of in Texas independence season, has never mustered more than a thousand fighting men since 1800, never more than a thousand in their armies or militia.

They won their independence with that.

And that's the will.

I mean, that is the strength and the resolve of the American people right there.

You're just not going to take freedoms that easily.

And the numbers are stacked against you.

I mean, they've taken freedom of the press, freedom to assemble, freedom of religion, and freedom of speech pretty quickly.

Yeah.

I mean, they're not entirely gone, but they are on the ropes, every single one of those.

And that's just the First Amendment.

Yeah.

And that's the thing.

We're living in dangerous days.

We're having to comply with stupidity these days.

It's insane what we're going through.

Well, isn't that because

our system is, as Adam said, our system of governance is

wholly inadequate

for a

non-religious and non-moral people.

Right.

And wasn't it de Tocqueville that said, if it's you're only going to be great as long as you're good.

I mean, as long as you're a good people.

Because as soon as you stop being a good people, you're in trouble.

The left and the progressives, I mean, what we're seeing, what you were talking about earlier, they want anarchy.

They want to redefine.

They want to reimagine the police.

They want all of that gone.

They don't want law and order.

They don't want that.

They want chaos because with chaos, they can rule that.

It's a mob rule.

Yep.

We have Chad Prayther on with us.

He is actually.

And I don't, are you seriously, and say this to me, look me in the eye.

Are you running for governor of Texas?

According to the state of Texas and the Texas Ethics Commission, I am indeed on file running for governor.

Okay, but according to you.

Yes, I am.

You are.

Okay,

then I want to ask you some serious questions about what you would do as governor of Texas.

I'm looking forward to that.

Next.

This is the Glenn Dak program.

I'm telling you, I mean, Donald Trump was elected president.

You don't think Chad Prayther could become governor of Texas?

Of course.

Let me talk to you here about Life Lock.

Life Lock wants to urge you to protect yourself.

Cyber criminals are out there and they work every day to take your stuff and your good name.

And they can do it easily, especially during tax season and COVID tax season.

They may have already filed for your tax return and already gotten it.

You're waiting for it and you eventually call the IRS and they're like, no, we already sent that out.

Okay, it wasn't me.

May I suggest you lock your identity up and keep what's yours?

Life Lock is there.

Nobody can monitor everything, but Life Lock will see the things that you'll miss on your own.

They will help you, and they have a team of people that if there's a problem with your identity, that team goes to work to clean up that mess.

That's where the rubber meets the road.

When's the last time you saw a candidate for governor do 60 shots of beer in an hour?

Chad Prayther joins us on the Power Hour tonight, youtube.com/slash Stew DoesAmerica, 9 p.m.

Eastern.

Welcome to the Climbback Program.

It's Friday, and we have Chad Prather

in with us.

Chad is,

I mean, what are you exactly?

A comedian,

singer, songwriter?

What?

It's kind of funny.

They had me, they wanted me to come speak.

The GOP wanted me to come speak at the state capitol on Wednesday.

And so you looked at the flyer and you had all these state reps and state senators, and then there was Chad Prather comedian.

I said, can we at least change that to TV host or something?

Conservative humorist.

I mean, let's add something.

The guy who won in Ukraine was a comedian.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

He's now the president of Ukraine.

I think we could be president now.

The president of Sweden,

he was the CEO of IKEA, right?

Took him weeks to put his cabinet together.

Oh, man.

Holy cow, Dad.

Thanks for stopping by.

I've had a a hard time defining that a long time.

You know, I do comedy.

I don't know that I consider myself a comedian.

I go out and do comedy.

But at the end of the day,

you name it, do everything.

So

you're running for governor of Texas.

Yeah.

And you say this is serious, but I don't believe anything you say

is serious.

But you're running for governor.

What is your...

Let me tell you how that started, Glenn.

Let me tell you how it started.

So obviously we went through all all the shutdowns and the mandates and everything that happened.

And, of course, Texas was not immune from all of that.

Back in July, I was in South Dakota.

I was getting ready for the president's speech at Mount Rushmore, July 2nd.

I'm sitting there with Don Trump Jr.

I'm drinking a glass of wine.

We get another mask mandate.

And I don't know if it was the wine or sitting next to a Trump that I just got on Twitter and said, screw it, I'm running for governor in 2022.

I went to sleep, woke up to a firestorm of response the next morning.

And I thought, if I back out of this now, they're going to tar and feather me.

But it was with true conviction.

Look, I love the state of Texas.

I really do.

It's been really good to me.

I'm not originally from here.

I've been in the Texas DFW area for 20 years now.

I love it.

This is my place of identity and destiny.

It really is.

And so I just don't like that we're not leading.

I don't like that we're following.

I think that our current governor, who has done a respectable job, I was saying to Stu yesterday,

he puts his finger up in the wind and basically looks to see what Ron DeSantis says and does and then gives it five days to get the public opinion back.

And then he decides to say it himself.

The difference between he and DeSantis is DeSantis is doing it and Greg Abbott's just saying it.

So we're following.

We're not leading.

And that's just not a good question.

I will tell you, I think that, I mean, because Greg Abbott doesn't suck.

Right.

He just isn't.

He's just not Texan enough.

And he's, I think he was born and raised here.

And I like Greg Abbott.

Yeah, born in West Tottenham.

Raised in East Texas.

Yeah, the thing about Gray Gabbitt that I hear is exactly what you said.

Texas should be leading, not following.

So I have people all the time that ask me when I'm out and about and traveling.

They say, why isn't Texas doing what South Dakota is doing or what Florida is doing?

And with all due respect to Christy Noam,

South Dakota doesn't have its own toast.

There's no waffle irons.

There's no waffle irons in the shape of Florida, right?

We put on, you know, our girls put on bikinis that are our state flag and float down a river every year.

They don't do those kind of things in other states.

This is Texas, by God.

And what I've always said is, you know, we talk about things being bigger in Texas or people walking a little bit taller.

I call it a humble arrogance.

You know, we've seen the humility.

Like, for instance, when Harvey hit, we all banded together.

We didn't ask for a lot of federal help.

People showed up and they helped their neighbors.

And we've seen that over and over again.

We saw it with the Snow Mageddon that happened just weeks ago.

There is that humility, but there's also, you just don't tell us what to do.

So, there is that arrogance about us.

I mean, we have been a republic.

We've been our own nation.

We've got a rich heritage and a rich identity, but I think we've lost the identity.

So, what I keep saying to people, Glenn, is Texas isn't the Texas that most Texans think it is anymore.

Well, you know,

I've seen some polling numbers here in Texas.

I mean, we're close to losing Texas.

We are.

But I've seen some polling numbers, and the ones to really be concerned about are not the ones necessarily moving in because a lot of them moving in feel like i do right i'm coming here for texas i i the rest of the country has lost its mind um the ones that really are a problem are the ones who grew up in texas they uh are

you know are just are they're just changing and they're becoming i guess maybe the same way that americans were you know right around 9-11.

They thought we were invincible until it happened.

And so

they're not thinking that Texas could ever ever fail.

Well, Daniel Horowitz said something pretty profound to me the other day on the News and Why It Matters.

He said, there's really no red states anymore

because of the big cities.

The big cities have all gone blue.

So if you look at San Antonio and Houston and Dallas and now even Fort Worth,

El Paso, you look at the big cities, you know, the sister cities in Texas, they're not red at all.

Here's what I'm concerned with, Glenn.

is when it look when you look at state politics in Texas, I'm not worried so much about the left as I am the people who claim to be on the right and really aren't.

We have a lot of rhinos.

We have a lot of people who have ridden the Republican wave the way that they have.

We passed House Bill 1927 yesterday for constitutional carry, right?

It was still not a great bill.

I don't still don't, I'm still not pleased with what they passed.

But that thing should have not only passed resoundingly, it should have passed a long time ago.

This is the first time in 25 years that they actually got close to taking a look at it.

Well, this is, this is, this is, you can open carry or concealed carry, and you don't need a permit.

You don't need a permit.

You pass a background check.

What I don't like about it is they don't want 18 to 21 year olds being able to carry under the same rules.

I don't like that at all.

So you have, you have.

I mean, if you're old enough to go to war, you're old enough to carry a gun.

Yeah.

I mean, it's, it's not right.

Yeah.

I, I, I, I agree.

I think that Greg Abbott is not a bad guy.

I think he's done a respectable job, but I just don't think he's Texan enough.

That's a great way of putting that.

And there's a lot of people who would argue with that.

There's a lot of people who look at what I'm doing as a gimmick.

At the end of the day, I'm wanting to kind of stir the fires of history and get people talking again about how great Texas has been.

And I believe if we can apply that identity to who we are and recapture that, that we can re-embrace our destiny and continue to write history and leave a legacy.

And we're just not doing that right now.

We're kind of got our thumb in the wind and we're just kind of waiting to see which way it blows.

And that's not a way to really lead a state right now.

When I hear this, I think you're right.

And stirring the embers.

Am I still on?

Stirring the embers of history.

The first thing I think of is, you know, what we need is a governor that would go on the stew show

and get hammered.

Well, that's going to happen.

Right.

That's going to happen.

Yeah, that doesn't necessarily seem like the best idea.

It's a great idea.

Let me explain something to you, man.

Everybody keeps saying, do you know the skeletons are going to come out of the closet?

And I said, look, I don't have a closet.

I burned it down a long time ago.

I broke it down to sell the plywood.

My skeletons are arranged in the front yard like Halloween.

I have candy sitting in their lap.

They're all out there for everybody to see.

Listen, man, I've lived, for lack of better terms, a rock star life.

I've toured.

I've been all over the world.

I've done all these kind of things that would make my grandmother blush.

I've done them.

I've owned it.

There's no hiding it.

We talk about it on my show all the time.

We've lived a life, but, you know, there's nothing that's good.

I haven't done anything illegal.

I haven't done anything

stupid.

Let's not.

I wouldn't

blank it.

Let's just keep it there, Stu.

It depends on how you define it.

Well, I can still pass a background check.

Let's go that round.

But I've done plenty of things.

So I don't worry about things like that.

And let's face it, I'm not Donald Trump, but Trump did change the game in that regard.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So let me

just reality.

I am concerned about my friend Stu because it seems like he's doing a lot of theme shows where it's like, let's just get hammered.

The best thing about doing shows where you're getting hammered is the audience doesn't expect quality.

You know, you're going to give them a low quality.

Yeah, there it is.

We're training drinking.

We're already stretching out, Glenn.

Okay.

Well, I know that

Stephen Crowder's attorney, Bill the Asian lawyer, half Asian, half Asian.

Half Asian.

How's that?

Stop half Asian hate.

Yeah.

Well, I hated the white part of him.

So that's why I said Asian lawyer.

Anyway,

I know last time you did this, you filmed like at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and he came in already hammered.

He'd been drinking since lunch.

Yeah, I didn't wait.

You think about Bill.

I don't know if it's the white side of him or the Asian side of him, but he could drink.

Oh, yeah.

He could put it away.

He embarrassed all of us.

I mean, he drank us under the table.

That's why I want to invite him back this time.

We were all embarrassed.

Again,

the more you drink is the sign the more you have drunk.

That is true.

That was the way tolerance works.

We should point out, by the way, it's called the Studas America 250th Anniversary Power Hour.

It means one shot of beer per minute for 60 minutes.

And we try to actually have coherent.

political and issue-based conversations, and it works for a while, a short time, and then it gets very messy.

And it's live tonight?

Yeah, it's going to be tonight, 9 p.m.

Eastern on youtube.com/slash studasamerica.

Myself will be there.

Chad Prather, Jason Butchell, Spencer Corson, and Sarah Gonzalez as our moderately sober designated driver.

I'm telling you, because I can sue Spencer Corson.

He used to be a protector of mine before he went into his own business.

Yeah, he's got a book coming out and everything.

Yeah.

So

you'll have him so broken down.

You ask him questions about my family because then I'll split the proceeds with you.

We'll sue the snot out of him.

Yeah, it was violated NDA.

Yeah, yeah, we'll have him to violate that NDA.

That'll be a good thing.

And Jason Butrell was also one of your protectors.

So we could just keep Spencer.

I think he's a little bit block.

You think so?

I do think so.

I don't know.

You saw him last time.

He was skimping on his shots of beer.

I mean, I think Spencer, I've seen Spencer drink before.

I think he's going to be able to bring it.

I don't know about Jason.

He's a wuss.

The thing about Buttrell is

he would stare off blankly.

Yeah.

We lose him for like 10 minutes at a time.

We're like, we're supposed to be doing a show here.

What are you doing?

So let me ask you this.

This is the 200th.

250th episode of that crappy show.

How dare you?

Yes, it is.

It's 250.

How many episodes have I done?

Oh, my gosh, thousands.

We actually tried to do this for one of your anniversaries and figure out how many hours of broadcast you've done.

I mean, really, your life is, you haven't accomplished a lot.

It's really been a

series of forgettable shows over multiple decades.

That's on your tombstone.

Why don't you count this?

Because if you're doing shots at 250, we should have just like a drip of heroin for every minute.

You know what I mean?

We should just have

a trend.

We got to keep you clean, Glenn.

What we do is we take a shot of espresso.

We take a shot of espresso.

We'll sound like auctioneers at the end of an hour, and then we'll drop dead of a heart attack.

All right.

That is on the Stew Does, what is it?

Stew Does Beer?

No, no, it's the 250th anniversary power hour tonight, youtube.com slash stew doesamerica.

I will say, Chad brought this up on the show

last night.

You know, a lot of big,

important societal movements have started around a beer.

That's right.

Right?

In a tavern, around a beer.

Who knows what could come out of this evening?

Right.

I mean, I'll bet you that's how the Klan originally started.

Well, it's how the Nazis started.

I was going to go with the the founding.

You guys went to the Nazis and the Klan?

Well, let's just keep it.

He was the beer hall push.

That's right.

Yeah.

Let's keep this to gubernatorial success in Texas.

All right.

Thanks so much.

Chad Prayther.

Oh, we should point out, too, Chad's on tour.

Go to watchchad.com, right?

Chad is on tour.

Yeah, pre-order my book.

Am I crazy?

Yeah, it's coming out in August, right?

That's right.

It's a big deal coming out in August.

And of course, the website has all the details.

Sure.

We'll have you on again.

Chad Prayer, you can also watch him on Blaze TV.

It's really a good show.

I'm just saying that it was printed in front of me.

I've never even watched the show.

American Financing, because, you know, he doesn't have me on.

He doesn't have me on.

So he'll throw me a bone once in a while.

He'll do these fun shows, and then he'll be like, Glenn, we want to talk about death and destruction.

Can you be on?

All right.

American financing.

Life is busy, and I get that.

Sometimes it feels, you know, more

like the moment that you open your eyes in the morning till the moment you finally close them at the end of the day, that everything else is just a blur in between.

If you're a fiscally responsible person, I want to ask you just to find a little time in your day to give the mortgage consultants over at American Financing a quick call.

Here's what the call is going to do for you: they're going to look over your finances, see if there's some areas that can be approved.

Maybe you're paying a mortgage percentage rate that's too high.

Maybe you could benefit from a refi that won't start

your loan over.

Maybe you got things like credit card debt, which you are carrying carrying insanely high percentage rates.

Maybe you can get that

under control with a consolidation loan.

Just call them and see if they can save you money.

Hundreds, even $1,000 or more a month, depending on your situation.

It's American Financing.

I've done business with them for forever.

I've gotten a loan through them.

Stu has several people I know.

They work for you, not the big banks.

American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

It's AmericanFinancing.net.

American Financing NMLS 182334.

www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

The Glenn Beck Program.

It is baffling when you have people like Senator Ted Cruz joining Rand Paul and ditching his mask as they walk the halls of Congress.

Cruz explains, at this point, I've been vaccinated.

Everybody working in the Senate has been vaccinated.

No, not your staff.

Not a lot of people in the media.

They haven't gotten it.

And the current CDC guideline states very clearly that if you're vaccinated, you got to still keep taking precautions like wearing a mask.

You can still get sick.

You won't be as sick, but you can give it to somebody else.

So he's not just wrong, but he's doing it for the wrong reason.

And he knows experts are still learning how vaccines affect COVID spread.

The only way to keep the number down is to listen to science.

They all know it.

They're just playing politics and people are dying.

This is amazing.

We now have a president, though, who believes in science.

Here's a guy.

First of all, he lists it as 5,800 people have had these breakthrough cases that are vaccinated and get COVID.

That amounts to 0.008%

of those.

That's 10 times more likely to happen to you than a car accident.

That's not true.

You are 1,000 times more likely to be vaccinated and get it than having your mailband stop by.

No,

that's no.

It's true.

But can we also focus on the fact that what is Chris Cuomo doing while he's saying that?

He is on television without a mask in a room with coworkers.

There's people who work at his building, and he's sitting there without a mask, blabbing.

But

you are

more likely to get COVID than you are just falling.

It's about the same as falling out of the atmosphere and crashing and hurting yourself on the moon.

And we know how often that happens.

And if it just, if we could just save one person from falling out of the atmosphere and crashing on the moon, or getting vaccinated and

then passing it on to coworkers, I mean, isn't it worth it?

Isn't it worth that we all just give up all of our freedoms?

In fact, surrender all of your money to COVID campaigns and Cuomo's campaigns.

Okay.
