Dems’ Union ‘Wish List’ | Guests: Sen. Mike Lee & Helen Raleigh | 3/10/21

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

I lit the fuse and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

He kept saying, no, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with a class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

Yeah, aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

This

is

the Glenback program.

Yeah, hello, America.

Finally, we are one step closer to all being able to join a labor union.

Or better yet, just pay a labor union, even though we don't want to pay the labor union or be a part of a labor union.

Yes, all of your dreams are coming true.

What is your line in the sand?

We begin in 60 seconds.

The Glenbeck Program.

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

I hate to go all chicken little on you about the United States economy, but

sometimes the sky really is falling.

The whole weird past year has seen a dramatic decrease in mortgage rates throughout the housing industry.

And during that time, I've advised you to check out American Financing and see if they can save you a bundle of money every month by refinancing your own mortgage.

And while you're at it, bundling in all of those other debts that you have into that mortgage without resetting your loan.

Now,

now is the time that things are starting to dwindle down a bit.

Mortgage rates are still incredibly low.

Stu has one in the twos now.

I'm disappointed I don't have one in the ones.

Now I want them to pay me.

Yeah, I would like to get a negative interest rate right so

they're beginning to trickle back up.

And once again, the ship has sailed.

And when it has sailed, my friend, you're about to see

a lot of carnage in the economy.

Now, here's what I want you to do right now or sometime today.

Call American Financing at 800-906-2440.

American Financing 800-906-2440 or AmericanFinancing.net.

American Financing NMLS 1-82334.

So today is the day that here in Texas,

they've lifted all of the COVID restrictions.

We're back to the way we were a year ago.

A year ago.

We've opened the doors of the Mercury studios.

It's a little like Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, except no one in a crowd outside waiting to get in.

I'm surprised.

Everyone hasn't rushed back in.

Right.

It's like, whoa, whoa, what?

Yeah, everyone complains about, I can't go out.

I can't go out.

I think this is going to be the exception.

People are going to be like, I kind of like working at home.

Yeah.

I kind of like working at home.

So I think that's the way this is going to happen.

But I mean, Maryland just announced they're going to reopen everything here coming up, I think, on Friday.

Connecticut has announced it.

Mississippi.

Oh, my gosh.

Why are they trying to kill people?

I know.

They're just irresponsible.

New York Times has a list of mostly open, mixed, and mostly closed businesses.

And now there are currently no more states in mostly closed.

There are only one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, I think nine, eight states that are still in mixed, and everything else is quote unquote.

And what's crazy is this has gone against what the progressives have wanted.

I mean, people are starting to open things back up, and every time, at least when a red state does it,

you're condemned.

Yeah, there's this dumb thing that happens that when a red state does it, they're condemned.

I mean, Texas got just slaughtered in the media because they're opening up to 100%.

No one seemed to notice.

In fact, a lot of people that I know, because I grew up in Connecticut, were very critical of Texas for their reopening, didn't seem to notice the next day when Connecticut announced basically the same thing.

So let me switch subjects here because I think this is really exciting.

The House has passed Protecting the Right to Organize Act.

Ooh, this has got to be good.

It's protecting something.

It's a right.

Well, we have a right to organize and petition our government.

You know what I mean?

So do we need to act for it?

Because I think it's in the Constitution already.

I think we can organize.

We have a right to organize.

We have a right to come together and...

Oh, no, wait, but wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

No, that's to say things against the government.

We don't have that right, right?

They were taking that right away.

You can't get together.

You can't get together.

You can't congregate.

You can't.

I mean, that's really dangerous stuff.

You're a radical if you want that.

However, if you want to have a union,

you're set.

If you don't want to have a union, it kind of sucks for you.

The House passed the Protecting the Right to Organize the PRO Act, a bill that would substantially amend existing U.S.

labor law.

In a 225 to 206 vote Tuesday evening, five Republicans voted with the Democrats in favor.

One Democrat voted with Republicans against it.

It is a wish list for union leaders.

If you didn't know who controlled the union, I mean, who controlled the Democratic Party, you certainly do now.

It is

amazing.

The ranking member of the House Education and Labor

Committee added that unions have pushed the bill to stop declining union membership, which has taken place over the last 60 years.

It forces unionization of workers who don't necessarily want to join a union or pay union dues.

Republicans proposed a series of amendments to the PRO Act, which were rejected by the Democrats.

One rejected amendment proposed would have required unions with a president or vice president who has been convicted of a felony within the last three years

to file more detailed financial disclosures with the Department of Labor.

So that one was going too far.

You don't want to have to actually ask somebody who's been convicted of a felony

in the last three years.

Right.

Four years ago, you could have murdered an entire group of school children with bowling balls.

But three, as long as it's not within the last three years.

Exactly.

That's exactly right.

And listen, that didn't pass, thank thank goodness.

So you could have murdered a bunch of school children with bowling balls yesterday.

And you don't have to answer any questions.

Yeah.

The PRO Act is a

compilation of various policy

changes that the labor unions support, which would make it easier for unions to organize private sector employees.

The bill would remove workers' ability to vote against unionization, listen to this, via secret ballot elections.

So when they're voting, should we have a union or not,

you have to stand up and go, I'm against the union, thugs.

That's going to work out well for you.

I mean, that's crazy.

That is crazy.

A secret ballot is one of the main cornerstones of America.

I'd like a horse head in my bed.

Thank you.

I'd like to just give the address of my children's school right now.

It gives the National Labor Relations Board, not the workers, a final say in the decision to unionize a workforce.

The PRO Act would also nullify the right-to-work laws that exist in 27 states.

So we have a right-to-work law.

Not anymore?

I mean, that's really bad.

You see over and over again that the right-to-work states outperform every time you're unionizing states.

Over and over again.

I mean, I have just a

quick story.

In fact, two.

The first time I met Don Imus, I was 18 years old, and I was up at WNBC in New York, and I had come from WNBC.

B.C.

Where was I at the time?

I think I was in Washington, WPGC, and it was not a union radio station.

And I go to WN, B.C., where my friend was working, and it was still a music station at the time.

And they had him in one booth just just to say, 66 WNBC.

This is, you know, whoever.

That's what he did.

They had a member of the musicians union.

It was the only person that could touch the records.

At the time, they were still playing records.

The only one that could touch the record was a member of the musicians union.

And he would touch the record and grab it, and then he would put it on the turntable.

Then a second person, which was a

member of the, what was it, technicians union,

he could actually put the needle on the

record and queue it up.

Then you'd have your board op start the record.

And the jock was in a different room.

In a different room and all he would do is talk.

Okay, so you had, in a jock that I was doing myself, you had to have four people do.

And they couldn't even turn their microphones on.

No, they couldn't.

That had to be the board op to do that.

Yes.

I mean, that is incredible.

Incredible.

Incredible.

What happens when the technician is putting the needle on the record and he mistakenly touches the record?

Does he spontaneously combust?

How does that work?

I don't really know, but they were very, very serious about it because I was mocking it.

And he was like, don't mock it.

Don't mock it.

Don't mock it.

I'll be dead by tomorrow.

Because it's protecting jobs that didn't need to exist.

So it started, the radio unions started because they started replacing orchestras.

You know, they would have singers come in and bands come in and everything else.

So all of those musicians lost their jobs soon as the record came in.

And so the union said, you can't play records.

What are you talking about?

Of course we're going to play records.

It's cheaper.

It's better.

It's consistent.

No, it can't do that.

Look at all the musicians that are going to be put out of work.

Well, yeah, it's called progress.

Okay, well, then if you're going to do do that, we're going to organize.

They organized and said musicians union members had to be the one that moved the record.

Okay, so former musicians were like, Yeah, I used to play the horn.

Now I'm just doing this.

Unbelievable.

Okay, the second story: we were in New York and we were building a studio.

And it took us how long to build the studio?

We had 20,000, 16,000 square feet total, and about

8,000 of it was studio space.

We built one, two, three studios, but the walls were already up.

Okay, it was already a radio station.

All we had to do was just

put some sheetrock up, change the look of everything, you know, do some painting and wallpaper, some lights, drop the consoles into things that were already there.

And it took us about a year.

And it was the biggest pain in the butt ever.

And everything was waiting for the unions.

Sorry, can't touch that.

No, I just, I was wondering if you could just, I mean, could you just plug that in?

Because we're ready to go.

If you, sorry, a different union.

I'll plug it in.

Nope.

No, you can't do it.

And if it is plugged in, you're fined.

Okay.

We came down to Texas, a right-to-work state.

We took an 80,000 square foot studio and we built the sets, we hung the lights and we made it into a digital broadcast studio.

It was a film studio.

We built a digital broadcast center and we did the first draft in a week.

In a week.

We had nothing and in a week we had a studio.

That's the difference between unions

and a right-to-work state.

Now here's the the really bad part.

You don't get to choose anymore whether you'd like to join a union or not.

All of this is based on that horrible, horrible labor law in California for the,

what do you call it?

The,

I can only think of bit economy, but it's not.

It's the gig economy.

Gig economy.

The gig economy, remember, California took it apart and they passed a law that said, no, no, no, you can't, you have to have a 40-hour work week.

You can't do a bid economy because

it's just too bad for people.

It's just horrible.

Well, no, in fact, it was so disliked by the public that California had a referendum and they voted against it.

So they put it in.

And then the people rose up and said, no,

you're not saying no to a gig economy.

And the stats on a gig economy are astounding.

And that's what they're going after.

They're not only going after all the mom-and-pop businesses, they're not only going after our economy, they're not only trying to help the unions because they've had a 60-year decline because everybody knows how much they suck.

I mean, I wouldn't, I mean,

look,

I'm not saying that the mob exists.

If it did, it would be great, but I'm sure it doesn't.

That's that thing from the movies, right?

The mob.

Yeah, the mob.

That's not a real one.

I'm sure that that's not.

If it did exist, we'd be for it.

Yes.

We would absolutely be for it.

Yeah, we'd love it, and we'd think they are great guys doing a good job for America.

I love them, but they don't exist.

They don't exist at all.

So anyway, we'll tell you about the stats and what this is really going to affect.

It's going to reach in to you in just a minute, literally 60 seconds.

Our sponsor is Patriot Mobile.

It used to be the case that when you went with one of the major mobile carriers,

you would go and you would get great service, and that was it because you didn't want to get stuck with some mom-and-pop cell company that worked as well as the tin cans with a string.

It's not like that anymore.

Those smaller companies, they are on the same cell towers as the big carriers, which means their service is just as good.

Their customer service is usually better, and they have customizable plans that can save you a buttload of money.

I mean, a lot of money.

Here's the clencher.

Right now, if you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're not going to be donating money from your bill to leftist causes.

A lot of the time, big mobile companies like Verizon are supporting things like Planned Parenthood.

So if you have Verizon, you're paying for the promotion of abortions.

You can avoid all that and get great service and great coverage with Patriot Mobile.

So we're going to talk to Mike Lee about this later,

but this, the PRO Act, if it passes in the Senate, will cost employers up to $45 billion

in added labor costs.

It will not only do that, but it will threaten the private ballot, as we said.

You have to vote and raise your hand.

I vote against the union.

It imposes California's disastrous independent contractor test.

It jeopardizes employers' right to free speech.

It threatens the loss of a job should workers choose not to pay union dues.

You have to do it.

Now,

here's the problem.

80% of the people who are working in the gig economy choose to work in the gig economy.

They want to work that way.

They want to be an independent contractor.

40%

of those who do work in the gig economy make

$100,000 a year.

Excuse me, what?

40%?

That's that can't be true.

Seems completely impossible.

Seems impossible, but you got to remember, you're talking about people sometimes with very high skills, plumbers.

Sure.

You know, that's a gig.

You're not under.

So I wonder, too, not necessarily making $100,000 from the gig economy.

Like, I know there's a lot of people who, you know, we take Ubers and things all the time, and a lot of people like work other jobs and just do this for a little extra cash, or they may have a full-time job where they're making lots of like sales calls or whatever, and they just kind of throw this in in between.

And you can make some, yeah, I mean, you could definitely make some solid money.

Well, I know 80% don't do it

because 80% do it because they want to.

That's the way they want to work.

80% want to work the gig economy.

What do they know about what they want to know?

You know, if we only had a large government who could tell us what we are supposed to believe about our own lives.

Good news, Stu.

This one's coming from Colorado.

A bill titled Digital Communications Regulation

is now seeking in Colorado

the creation of a digital communications division under the Department of Regulatory Agencies to regulate online content available in the state.

And the division is going to be run by a new committee.

And they're going to serve as the arbiters of truth.

Under the legislation proposed now by Democratic State Senator Kerry Donovan, the new commission will be tasked with the authority to investigate, hold hearings on claims filed with the division that accuse particular platforms of engaging in what the government declares unlawful conduct.

Such conduct

under the proposal ranges from promoting hate speech to disinformation, fake news, and conspiracy theories, or content the the Commission determines is meant to undermine election integrity.

What could possibly go wrong with this?

This is Colorado.

Colorado, you better wake up.

You better wake up.

Can you imagine a committee that is going to sit there and judge what the truth is?

I thought we already had a truth czar.

Do we need a truth committee?

Well, we do in Colorado.

Okay.

Yeah.

I mean, you're busy skiing and stuff.

So

going for you.

You know the guy from Arizona that

painted his face and had the horns, and he was in the January 16th century.

He's the QAnon shaman?

Yeah.

Okay.

A weirdo.

I think we'd all agree.

He might even agree to that.

I don't know.

Yeah, a weirdo.

Okay.

But he's not being let out of jail now because the judge says that he's still beholden to President Trump.

Is that a crime?

Well, apparently it is.

Okay.

He is, uh, even though he said he's come to terms with the with the election results, uh, the judge said that to release him is a risk to commit other crimes because he blatantly lied in his interview, contending that police officers welcome him into the cat into the capitol and

he's still beholden to President Trump.

Oh, okay.

Wait, what?

This is the Glenback program.

Wouldn't that make you a political prisoner?

All right, now let me take a minute to ask you just to think about your favorite memories.

All the home movies that you have from way back when, all those pictures, all those videotapes on the weird formats.

I found a format because I'm doing a legacy box.

I found a format.

I don't even know what it it is.

Really?

Yeah.

I'm looking at some of these come and go over

and I'm like, I don't even know what machine that was for.

But anyway.

This used to be liquid.

What did I use this for?

They're not going to last forever, especially if they're on videotape and pictures.

Fade.

Well,

Legacy Box is here with a simple mail-in service that will digitally preserve all of your memories on a thumb drive, a DVD, or the cloud.

You have a ton of old memories.

I have a huge box of just tapes of me at, you know, 16 years old on the radio that I missed.

I don't know if I can, I can trust Legacy Box to not take those and embarrass me.

Over the past few days, I've come to better understand the pain caused by the book I endorsed by Andy No.

I've offended not only a lot of people that I don't know, but also the closest to me, including my bandmates.

And for that, I'm truly sorry, says

the banjo player of Mumford and Sons.

As a result of my actions,

I'm taking time away from the band to examine my blind spots.

I do that all the time.

His actions, and again, I think you said his actions, which was he said something positive about the Andy No.

He read the Andy No book, and then he said, this is worth a read.

And that hurt a lot of people.

Hurt a lot of people.

How would someone else reading a book hurt people?

Well, Well, because

a lot of people are influenced by the banjo player in Mumford and Sons.

Are they?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

The banjo player?

Are you kidding me?

What's his face?

No, but this is the, this is the, I might be the main guy.

It might be.

Yeah.

He's a guy most Americans love.

Don't necessarily know his name nor follow him

or are going to the show because they're like, that banjo is the best banjo.

You know what I mean?

But they do follow him for his tips on what books to read.

Okay, so he

so and I'd like to know, who do you think knows more about Andy No and who he is and what he's done?

The person who's criticizing this guy or the guy who actually read the whole book?

Oh, no.

Most of the people who came after the banjo player is

they've never read the book.

I can guarantee you 90% of them don't even know how to pronounce Ngo.

It's true.

None of them have no idea.

They have no idea who he is.

This guy's done the work.

He's actually read the book.

He's realized

what Andy No does.

And he's truly sorry for that.

And we've had Andy No on the show many times.

Is there anything at all of legitimate,

like

of validity, a valid criticism of him, that he should be this toxic character.

I mean, everything I've seen of Andy No is he he's had brain damage because he's been attacked by Antifa members.

He's, he's uh,

he put the light on how many crimes being committed.

Um, he has been critical of a group that is defacing property and committing crimes all over the country.

He's a gay son of immigrants.

Asian immigrants.

Right.

Which right now, all the rage is to make sure that we say that violence against Asians is bad, except for Andy No.

That violence seems to be okay.

It's dark.

You can beat the crap out of Andy No.

whatever you want.

I thought he was Andy No.

That's the only reason why I beat him to death in the alley is I swear to you, I thought he was Andy Nago.

Oh, case closed.

You're free.

You're free to go, sir.

So, like, but is there anything that he's ever done that is legitimately

that there's a legitimate criticism of?

I mean, you can say you think he's outsizing the impact of Antifa, right?

Like, I've heard that criticism of him before, but that's just an opinion.

You can say, you know, I tend to think it's a pretty serious issue.

So does Andy.

But some people don't think it's that serious.

Ah, it's just a Portland thing.

Ah, it's just happened in Seattle.

Ah, it just happened in all of our 40 biggest cities.

People just throw

those things out.

But there's, I mean, as I, sometimes these characters have a one-off comment where you're like, oh my gosh, like that, they shouldn't have said that, but their overall work is still okay.

I, is, I'm not aware of that even with Andy No.

Is there anything this guy has done that is wrong?

Not that I know.

I know they accuse him of making stuff up.

They do.

They accuse everybody.

Everybody of it.

Well, anyway, could I finish this

heartfelt for now?

Please know that I realize how my endorsements have the potential to be viewed as approval of hateful, divisive behavior.

Well, I mean, look, an endorsement is an approval of the book.

Yeah, but potential to be viewed as approval of hateful, divisive behavior.

No,

that's admitting then that Andy No

is being divisive and has hateful behavior, not Antifa.

Which is hard to square that circle, but I apologize.

This was not at all my intention.

No, his intention was: I read a good book.

I know nobody cares about my endorsement.

Nobody's ever asked me for an endorsement, but I read a good book.

You should try it out.

I mean, lesson one out of this, of course, is never tweet, never give your opinion on anything.

Stay the hell out of the way.

Now, I think the opposite needs to happen because I want to know what you're lying.

But this is nothing.

This is not like the Mumford and Sons guy is not you, right?

Like, you.

I'm going to tweet.

I am going to tweet today my endorsement of his endorsement for Andy No.

You're going to make it worse.

I'm going to make it worse.

But like I, you know, we get paid to come in here and give our opinions on such things, and obviously that's why I do it.

But like if I was in Mumford and Sons, like why would I be giving book recommendations?

Why would I bother?

Why bother with the hassle?

And I swear this is what this is, right?

Oh, yeah.

Stay out of it.

This is not him saying Andy No is a hateful character.

No.

This is him saying, holy crap, I'm in a firestorm.

My, my, you know, I don't know if my a man, my tens of thousands of dollars of job.

There's on the line.

There's not a lot of gigs for banjos these days.

I can't lose this one.

This is like it's Mumford and Sons or I'm under a bridge.

I'm going to be playing at an old-timey ice cream parlor soon.

I could either be in Mumford and Sons or I'm in a Chuck E.

Cheese band.

Those are the two options I have.

And they've already automated those.

I can't.

So I get it.

Like, I understand, especially if you're not an ideologue, right?

If you're just a person who's like, this is a cool book, and then all of a sudden it blows your life up.

I can understand why you'd react like this, but it's insane.

It is legitimately insane.

When is somebody just going to say, it's insane?

That's what I would like him to do.

You're insane.

Yeah.

Get out of my face.

You're a banjo player in Mumford.

You want to read the dumb books I recommend?

Don't read them.

Don't read them.

It's

completely nuts.

This is book burning.

This is just shaming people if you say you like a book.

If you say

you think that people should read things.

I mean, that used to be the badge of honor and intellectual curiosity in America.

You know, read things.

Read things you disagree with.

I can't tell you how many books I have read that I disagree with.

And I read them intentionally.

You have to know the other side.

You have to know what somebody, especially in really important things where it's going to change everybody's life.

I want to hear what the argument is for and against, and I'll decide.

Not in America anymore, especially

especially if you are putting hateful Jimmies

on your ice cream.

Like sprinkles, Jimmies?

Yeah, you grew up in New England.

Did you call them Jimmies?

No, I called them sprinkles.

Sprinkles.

They were like a real human being.

Okay, so all human beings call them.

They're sprinkles is what they are.

Is there something called shots too that would be in the same guy?

I don't know.

That sounds controversial as well.

Just Jimmy's.

Just Jimmy's.

It's a name of an ice cream, and it has been changed now to just sprinkles.

Now, this is Brigham's ice cream in New England.

And New England

calls sprinkles Jimmy's.

And they have forever.

I've heard the term.

Definitely.

Yeah, I have too.

And I've,

you're up in New England, you're like, what?

Those are sprinkles.

No, they're Jimmy's.

No, I'm not eating anything named Jimmy's.

So the history of the term Jimmy's, not clear.

Several companies have claimed to have invented it.

But some people now say, now listen to this.

It is a derogatory term related to Jim Crow,

the racist

caricature that came to stand for

and segregation put into place following the Civil War.

Now, this is what New England calls sprinkles.

New England got rid of slavery.

If New England were a country, it would have been the first country in the world to abolish slavery.

Black people were elected to office in the 1700s.

Black people had a right to vote.

Women had a right to vote.

This is New England.

Don't think of New England today.

Think of New England as a place that gets it.

They got it.

And it would be a, according to this article, a derogatory term related to Jim Crow.

So if you're calling them Jimmies and you're eating them and they're all different colors,

I would think that is making fun, and it's from New England, it's making fun of Jim Crow.

And even this seems like a rinch, right?

It just seems like probably a guy named Jim Snopes said that's unproven.

So now this parent company for Brighams is saying that they are going to get rid of the word Jimmy.

And not because anybody is pressuring them.

They said that it was just to ensure that the brand reflects our values and meets our customers' expectations.

I don't care what you call it.

I don't care if you call your chocolate ice cream with big chunks in it dog crap.

If it tastes like dog crap, I'm not going to eat it.

I don't think it's the best marketing strategy for you, but you could call it that.

And if it's really yummy, what are you doing?

I'm having a big old bowl of dog crap.

In fact, I want to start an ice cream company that will do that just to show you that names mean nothing.

And

in this society, I think actually it's better than nothing.

I think calling a bowl of ice cream dog crap just to make the point would sell like crazy.

Yeah, I mean, there's been companies that have done things like that.

They name their products really gross names so that, you know, mainly kids think it's funny.

And they, I'm eating a bowl of dog crap.

Like, you can see, you can see it catching on.

Yeah, I could.

I could.

Now, the word normal.

Tell me which one of these is true, and I'll give you the answer after the break.

The word normal is now being taken off of products because it's offensive.

or

Disney pulls iconic movies Dumbo the Aristocrats and Peter Pan

from

their place on Disney Plus because of racist stereotypes.

Which one of those are true?

I'll give you the answer here in just a second.

Do you know which one's true?

I know one of them is true.

I don't know the other one, though.

One of them is true at least.

The Glenn Beck program.

Hello, Americans.

It's Wednesday.

We've got a great show for you tonight.

If you want to take on the cancel culture, you want to do something that actually matters, tonight we're going to lay out some things that you can actually do and ways that you can save your family and save your

your country.

Tonight, you don't want to miss it.

At 9 o'clock, only on Blazetv.

Blazetv.com.

Make sure you watch tonight.

Okay.

So which one of these stories is true?

Disney pulls the iconic movies

or

the word normal is removed from products?

I believe the true one is normal being removed from products.

I believe it's

hand cream.

Yeah, like normal skin, dry hair, normal hair.

They're taking normal off.

So they're taking normal off of all of their products in

packaging.

They say that's not going to fix the problem alone, but it is an important step forward.

Now, I don't know what problem we're trying to fix here.

That some things are normal.

Some things are average.

What are we trying to fix?

They're just trying to get rid of the concept of normality.

Yeah, I think that's what it is.

I think that's what it is.

So now they're going to, they say the problem.

Now, think about this.

This is dove.

So,

where do they have normal anywhere?

I mean, how are you?

This is for normal people.

Yeah, I mean, no, of course not.

So, where are they doing it?

It's on the tiny print that says for normal to dry skin conditions.

Okay.

Okay.

So, they're going to replace it

on their shampoo from normal to dry hair.

They're now going to say for dry and damaged hair.

Well, then do I get that if I have not dry and damaged hair?

Wait, so people would rather be called damaged than normal?

Well, just the hair.

Right, I just know.

Well, then if it's then, why are you changing it if it's just the hair?

So normal.

Because it's normal, you're normal.

Or if you have damaged hair.

So you can be insane and have damaged hair and you could still use that soap that's good to hear but like if what if you just have hair that isn't dry or damaged right what do you do I don't know because they won't say what's normal let me guess use another brand that's probably what the answer is yeah I think stay you know stay away from Unilever so now again this was not due to a cancel culture thing they just did it on their own because they did a they did a focus group in nine different countries and they I'm I'm guessing they you know, added phrases like, Does normal, do you think the word normal could hurt people's feelings?

Do you think, because I can't imagine anybody seeing a line for normal to damaged hair and going, oh my gosh, that hurts.

Oh, my gosh, that hurts, that hurts.

And everybody in the room, you know, spontaneously going, I was thinking the same thing.

That would take a focus group leader looking.

You know, how does the word normal feel to you?

I don't know.

Normal?

You didn't make the focus group.

No.

You were kicked out of the focus group before it began.

By the way, Disney has not pulled these films yet, but they have pulled them from the kids' sections.

Let's talk about American Financing.

Our sponsor for the Blaze this half hour, or this hour, they're making it possible for Blaze viewers and Stu.

Talk to me a little bit about about your experience they're making it possible for me to not have to pay too much for my mortgage which is i something i very much appreciate american financing uh i started working with them it was after you had started i didn't even know that they existed and i started talking to them when i needed to work on a mortgage and i wanted to kind of come up with very

some would say loan sharky uh scheme i saw some people some people would say that that's what you were looking for uh and i kept i went to them and i said hey can you do this and they said that's not a sane thing to do

But they gave me what, you know, they went through the whole thing and they said,

I told them what my other offers were.

And they said, you know what?

I think, honestly, for what you're looking for, that one might be the best one, this other company.

We prefer not to go to jail.

Right.

But, you know, if you want to do that.

So I did take that other loan, went back to them for another real estate transaction.

And this one was a different situation.

They had the best offer by far and got a loan through American Financing.

The point is that they're not high pressure.

They just do a really good job explaining everything to you.

It's 800-906-2440 or AmericanFinancing.net.

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

This

is

the Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the program.

We want to talk to you about schools.

Everybody is saying, oh, we got to get our schools back open.

We got to get our kids in schools.

It's crazy.

It's like saying, we got to, I'm Uyghur, we got to get those concentration camps open up again because they were great.

You know,

why are my kids going into the concentration camp?

Are they not Uyghurs too?

What are we doing?

What kind of curriculum is coming your way for your kids?

And you're paying for it.

Will you stand up to stop it?

All this and more in 60 seconds.

The Glen Beck Program.

Slowly but surely, at least in some states, it's starting to be okay again to

go out to businesses.

It's coming at the perfect time.

Weather warming up.

You still feel a little more like getting out anyway.

And you'd like to go to places more than Home Depot and Sherwin-Williams.

Remember, it was a year ago that we were all going, it was okay to go into Home Depot.

They were crowded.

I mean, what?

I don't, all the fumes kill the coronavirus.

Yeah, I know.

I remember thinking at the time, I think Sherwin-Williams, all of the landscaping companies, all of the home improvement stores, they're all in on this.

That's who created coronavirus.

Well, you can go out now, at least in Texas, today is the day and more coming this week.

If If you have never looked at a hustler mower and you're thinking about getting a new lawnmower,

you really need to go out and find a hustler dealer.

These are the people that invented the zero-turn mowers.

Take it out for a test bin.

Try the other ones, too.

You might actually find that the prospect of mowing your yard just got a little more interesting.

They are fast, incredibly maneuverable, and they're going to cut the time that you spend mowing your yard in about half.

Again, they invented the zero turn.

They've been building these things forever.

They started in like 1960.

So

I think they're the ones who developed it.

They're the ones who have been keeping all of our medians, of our highways, and our football stadiums.

Those are the hustler turf mowers.

Now they're available for you.

Go out and test drive one.

Check out hustlerturf.com.

The Federalist reported last week that Naborville 203 Community School District, the staff and faculty attended a countywide Equity Institute training on February 26th.

A whistleblower sent quotes from the Keystone speaker, Dina Simmons, and nine other anti-racist coaches to the Federalist, and they published it, as well as evidence such as PowerPoints from the training insisting that america is institutionally racist other teachers also provided statements one powerpoint slide in the valbrum consulting group presentation said the term make america great again is covert racism comparable to the n-word hate crimes lynching and the klan

Now that might be

a little hyperbole, but

according to the slide, if you're part of half of the country that voted for President Donald Trump, you're a racist and a white supremacist.

So some people have spoken out about this, and I'm going to give you this story a little later.

They spoke out about it.

Teachers started speaking out, and they are being hammered.

And this school district is doubling down on this.

Now, this goes along with another story.

If you liked Common Core, you're going to love the anti-American civics project

because the left has decided, you know what, we're not teaching civics.

And I think everybody agrees with that.

We're not teaching history.

We're not teaching civics.

We're not a democracy.

We're a republic.

Well, this one is bipartisan, and it's a state-led coalition.

And they've got a vision for us.

It's a roadmap.

300 leading scholars, bipartisan, got together for 17 months and put together a roadmap of what to teach.

And it's great.

Now, like I said, it is bipartisan.

It's bipartisan.

Well, out of the 300,

there are maybe 10 Republicans.

And of course, no Republican would ever, Mitt Romney, ever, you know, engage in something, Mitt Romney, that isn't, you know, true blue, red, white, and blue, founding fathers, you know, strict constitutionalist kind of thinking, Mitt Romney.

Now,

this happened right after

the 1776 project that Donald Trump unveiled was called racist and pulled immediately, I think on one of the first days that Joe Biden was in office.

Well, one of the guys who was instrumental of this, he was the chairman of the 1776 Commission.

He's also the president of Hillsdale College, the only college that I for sure

will say yes to if my kids decide to go to college.

Dr.

Larry Arne, how are you, sir?

I'm very well, Glenn.

How are you doing?

I'm good.

I'm good.

First of all.

When Biden came out and said that your 1776 report,

I read it.

I thought it was fantastic.

And they said that it was racist.

There were no historians involved in

this.

Can you tell me about the historians, first of all?

No historians in this, huh?

Well, Victor Davis Hansen, one of the greatest historians in the land.

Charles Kessler, who's a political scientist and a student of the American Founding for 40 years now.

And, you know, I know a little bit about it.

Really?

Yeah, you know,

it was

the commission was, what, it, 17 people.

And,

you know, there are some serious people on there.

John Gibbs, who's been

worked in the government and various administrations and civil rights, Peter Kersonow is another one.

And they, you know, and we

had about five weeks.

I actually thought, call me naive, that Biden might, you expand the commission, work with the commission.

And I think it was by 3 o'clock in the afternoon, after he was inaugurated in the late morning, the whole thing was wiped off the White House website and was condemned and abolished in one of his first 17 executive orders as racist.

How?

How is it?

Explain to me how they justify that.

Well, it's what you were talking about earlier, about what's going on in the schools.

You're a racist unless you admit that the country was founded as a racist country and it is structured as one.

It wasn't.

I mean,

all history will point to.

You can look at Jamestown and say that that was part of slavery.

But if you look at the Pilgrims, the first slave ship that arrived, they freed all the slaves.

That's right.

Yeah, and they and you know, I mean, Thomas Jefferson.

Thomas Jefferson was a slaveholder, and he wrote the Declaration of Independence.

Thomas Jefferson wrote about slavery that I tremble for my country when I think that God is just.

And Thomas Jefferson was the chief instrument in assuring that the Northwest Territory, where I live in Michigan and other states,

would never have slavery in it.

And that and so the first time a free government in all of history grew, it grew without colonies.

They were territories soon to be states.

And it grew with a ban on slavery forever in it.

And so that's an achievement.

There's hardly anything like that, precedent to that in history.

And so,

and

the key point, the people who wrote the Declaration of Independence are uniform.

I mean, the records are rich, right, in saying that slavery is condemned by the principle of equality in the Declaration of Independence.

If you read the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, there's a paragraph written by Jefferson in his own hand where he capitalizes the word men, where he says the king has violated every sacred right given by God by capturing and transporting

slaves and then having an open auction where he sells these quote capital letters men on the open market.

That's pretty clear.

Very.

And see, that's a really great point because,

of course, America is not now and was not then a perfect country.

And that beautiful passage that Jefferson wrote was not in the final document.

Right.

And the reason was

some of the delegates of the Constitutional Convention were uncomfortable with it because they thought it would lead to a slave revolt.

So that means, yeah, they didn't know exactly how they were going to live together, black and white, all alike.

And by the way, that had never happened before.

Right.

And so,

you know, you have to another thing about this trend in history is it collapses all the moral distinctions, right?

So the woke kids on college campuses will stand and chant at somebody who says something they don't like.

You are killing me, right?

So you're being called to murder for something you said.

And

this is the same thing.

If it wasn't perfect in the past, and see, it wasn't perfect.

It was just the best.

Because this question of how are we going to live together, black and white alike, how are we going to do that, that is the question that is put by the Declaration of Independence.

And so that document...

There is no ground upon which to condemn slavery or discrimination or injustice that is not stated most beautifully in the American Declaration of Independence.

Not the northern states, but the New England states or colonies at the time, if they would have been a country, they would have been the first in the world to abolish slavery.

But then states like New York, they were pretty

engaged in slavery.

What is it that they didn't understand?

When they say they were afraid of the slave revolt, why wasn't New England afraid of that?

Because they never had slaves being a major part of their society and black people could vote and were in office and one health.

Well, they had slavery.

All the states had slavery.

By the time the founding generation had retired, they had abolished slavery in 60% of the Union.

Now, the places where they didn't abolish it,

which are mostly in the states that eventually became the Confederacy,

those states had many more because they had a labor system that depended on them.

And that's the place.

It's not just that there were many more slaves.

It's the place where John C.

Calhoun,

by the way, you, the first time I ever met you,

you and I talked about this point.

John C.

Calhoun was the apostle of the positive good school of slavery.

And he studied with

people, students connected to Friedrich Hegel.

And Friedrich Hegel and German historicism, which is the father both of Nazism and of communism and of American progressivism, is the idea that we evolve.

And so

we don't have a nature.

You know, the old understanding is if it's born and it starts talking, it means it's a human.

And it doesn't make any difference what it looks like because only humans do that, see?

And

that's nature.

That's the essence and identity of a a thing.

History is everything evolves over time and one thing shades into another.

And it's an easy step from there

to say either the left-wing or the right-wing thing.

The left-wing thing is, good, then these exploiters of ours, we've evolved to the place where we can destroy them.

Or the right-wing thing.

The people who are our inferiors have evolved to be our inferiors and they must be our slaves.

It would be, Calhoun says, an abomination to live with them as equals.

Now that doctrine is not present in the American Revolution.

It grows up later,

about a generation and a half later, in ideas that came from modern historicism, which are the most virulent ideas stalking the world to this very day.

And and that means that if you condemn the founders, you're condemning the people who were the foremost enemies of that kind of thinking.

And you're mistaking.

Because see, you know, know I we we I Hillsdale College turns out to be an abolitionist college and we you know Frederick Douglass spoke here twice we have statues of him and Lincoln and things like that if I had John Calhoun I certainly wouldn't like the thing right because that was not a good guy but but

would I tear it down?

Well that's a judgment.

I don't know what I'd do about it.

But because

why?

That's another point about this report.

The last thing in the world that should be controversial is history.

Because history has happened, right?

Aristotle says this alone is denied even to God to make what has been not to have been, right?

In other words,

if you want to know, you know, I studied with Martin Gilbert, the official biographer of Winston Churchill, and

he's probably the greatest historian in the 20th century.

And he used to say, in the writing of 19th and 20th century history, there is no room for the word perhaps.

Let's just say, look it up, right?

And, you know, the literature about this,

you know, the established historians,

the premier of them is Gordon Wood.

And he's a student of Bernard Bailyn, who was at Harvard, and he was the premier American history historian.

And Gordon Woods writes, in response to that crazy 1619 project of the New York Times, he writes, no colonist, think what a statement that is, no colonist ever said that the purpose of the colony was to perpetuate slavery.

And that means that you can't,

it's such a misunderstanding, you know, if

the world that they were rebelling against, the American colonists, was a world of aristocracy.

The British aristocracy was the mildest and the best aristocracy, but it was still an aristocracy.

And that meant they were born to privilege and rule.

And that is specifically forbidden in the Constitution of the United States.

Hang on just a second.

We're talking to Dr.

Larry Arne.

He is the

former chairman of the 1776 Commission and the president of Hillsdale College.

If you don't have online classes from Hillsdale, you should.

Just look it up online.

I give my monthly fee and learn from the brilliant minds at Hillsdale College all the time.

You should do that, Hillsdale College.

Or it's actually just hillsdale.edu.

Back in one minute,

let me tell you a little bit about my Patriot supply.

They have cornered the market on the most amazing survival and preparedness food out there.

I had to know, I've eaten their food, and I've eaten their food, quite honestly, because my wife went away for a couple of days, and I didn't want to go to the store, and there was nothing in the house.

I was like, hmm, wait a minute.

Yeah, the wife goes away, you just give up on life after about 48 hours.

You really do.

You really do.

If you're in the middle of a difficult situation where you need an extra amount of food to get you and your family by, natural disasters are not in short supply.

Standing in line for hours just to get some food is not the way to go.

Panicking is not the way to go.

My Patriot supply is.

Right now, you can secure a four-week, three-month, or even a year's worth of emergency food, all providing 200 calories, or sorry, 2,000 calories a day.

Go to mypatriotsupply.com, get their food storage you need before the emergency.

It'll ship in one to two days and arrive discreetly at your door.

Don't wait.

Prepare now.

That's mypatriotsupply.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

We're doing a special tonight at 9 p.m.

about

history and what you need to know and the ways you can stand up against this distortion of history.

Doctor, how much trouble are our children in, especially with this new

Biden

civics class that is coming in?

Well,

the modern form of tyranny is totalitarianism.

That word was invented in the 1930s in response to the creation of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany.

And totalitarianism, that means they control everything.

And the most important thing to control is the children.

And

you know,

they are going to take over the education, they have extensively taken over the education of our children, and they tell them things that are soul-destroying, right?

First of all, they deprive the past of all authority, and then something has to replace that, right?

And it's the doctrines that dominate.

You read some of them at the beginning of this hour, and

the kids, and see, they're just kids, right?

And so

if you

don't get the habit of reading a thing for themselves to find out what it means.

See, and that's, you know, at Hillsdale College, it's a very difficult college.

It's great if I do say so myself.

We teach history through original source documents, right?

And that means, you know,

you read Abraham Lincoln and you read John Calhoun.

And those are two enemies, right?

They're not quite contemporaries, but

and, you know, Stephen Douglas and Frederick Douglass.

And that means there's a huge argument in America, and you read both sides of it.

We are now approaching, though, a society where you're not allowed to even utter a question.

You're not allowed to question authority.

You're not allowed to read the other side.

If it's deemed politically incorrect, you're in trouble for it.

You'll be canceled.

And it's not an argument.

The New York Times on the basis of

had a headline about our 1776 Commission report, which, as you thank you for saying, is a beautiful document.

30 seconds.

They said,

Commission defends founding of America on the basis of slavery.

And of course, what the report says is that it was not founded on that basis.

I can't thank you enough for all of the work that you've done.

I'd love to have you on again, Dr.

Larry Arne from Hillsdale.com.

This is the Glenback Program.

AMAC.

AMAC.

I don't know about you, but I consider myself a mature fellow.

Yes, yes.

And as such, I'd rather enjoy the prospect of being part of a mature group that not only provides me with comprehensive lifts and benefits, you know, because I do watch my pennies, but it also stands up and fights for me in Washington.

I mean,

Buffy and I, we can't fight.

We're busy at the club and things and whatnot.

What about you?

Are you mature like me?

And if so, have you chosen which group you want to be a part of?

May I recommend AMAC?

It's the Association of Mature American Citizens.

See, mature is right there in the title.

That's why I know it's for people who are mature.

AMAC stands for solvency in a time of runaway debt, national security and sovereignty over unchecked borders.

They believe in the sanctity of life.

In Washington, AMAC has been pushing back for years against the radical left socialist agenda.

They were started during the Obama years.

They get it.

They'll stand with you.

You stand with them.

There is power in numbers.

Tonight at 9 o'clock only on on Blaze TV,

we are going to talk to you a little bit about history.

History is under attack, and we're going into

civic action history, where the names of the places and everything, that doesn't mean anything.

It's all about action, and kids love to take action.

Civics action is coming to your school if it's not already there, and that is how to protest, how to march in the streets.

Our kids are being indoctrinated, and they're not learning history.

The new AP U.S.

history standards do not include Hitler or the Holocaust and paint America as the bad guys in World War II because they only pick it up at the dropping of the atomic bomb.

We set that correct for your kids today and we show you how powerful that bomb was.

We've got a couple of items that were actually in the blast of Hiroshima New to the vault.

And it is, it's amazing.

You don't want to miss tonight because we're going to show you what you can do.

And speaking of that, there was a great article out yesterday that I read, and I thought it was really, really well done by somebody who knows.

Her name is

Helen Raleigh.

And

she

was born in China and lived in China for a while.

And what she talked about how how to fight this, what this cultural revolution, she's lived through one before.

And I wanted to get her on.

Hi, Helen.

How are you?

I'm good.

How are you, Glenn?

I'm very good.

So can you just tell the story about what you wrote yesterday in the Federalist?

Sure.

So

this is the one about canceling Dr.

Seuss, right?

Yes, yes.

And

it's really heartbroken for me to read that Dr.

Seuss was canceled on his birthday.

I shared my experience of growing up in China.

I never had a quality great children's literature.

I shared a story I read as a child.

Children's literature was available was about condemning a beaten landlord, landowner, to death.

And it was

the rooster crows at midnight.

Can you tell that story a bit?

Sure.

So the rooster crow at night was a children's original for children, actually.

It was about this evil landowner that he was very cruel to everybody, the laborers who worked for him.

And

thanks to the Communist Party who liberated all the poor people, they took a land and the livestock away from him and distributed it to all the poor people.

So all the poor people were happy.

And then one night at midnight, he tried to steal a chicken from the poor people because he didn't have any.

The story did not say that.

And then the children caught him and the children who caught him and there was a picture in the storybook, it's a black and white picture show the children have all pointed this shiny spear at him and he was just knelt down on the ground, head dropped, hands tied at his back.

It looks like really, you know,

completely defeated.

And the author who were interviewed after the story became really popular, the author was interviewed, he mentioned this was a real life story, and the landowner who was caught after a struggle session, he was beaten to death.

That's the story I read when I was a child in China.

Warm story.

And you, when you came to America, you knew about Dr.

Seuss, but it wasn't until you

until you had a child and you started reading that you read Dr.

Seuss for the first time.

And what was that experience like?

It was very refreshing because I found that

I'm trying to fill out a missing chapter in my own childhood and

I was making it up during my adulthood because there was no reason for me to even thought about reading it until I was about to become a mother.

And I just love the colorful pictures.

I love the simple words, but they rhymes.

And I love the drawing.

And I just,

even though

Dr.

Su's book written in simple words, but they have deep meanings if you really think about it.

You know, like the saying about if you'll keep your eyes shut, you will see nothing.

You know, that's a perfect today's cancel culture.

If you keep your mind shut, if you keep your eyes shut, you will see nothing, you will learn nothing.

And I wish more of us will read his book instead of banning his book.

Well, so what do you say about

the because people say this is not the cancel culture, but it is when eBay refuses to sell a used copy of the book, I think.

But what do you say that it was the family that said, we don't want to print these books anymore.

They own the copyright.

So is it cancel culture or is it just, what is it exactly?

Because there are really

negative stereotypes of Chinese people in, I can't believe I saw it on Mulberry Street.

Right, but let's just unpack this a little bit.

First of all, it was not Chinese American immigrants who raised any questions about that.

You know, we cannot use today's moral standard to judge things that happened, take place with their historical context.

If we do that, there's nobody's perfect.

We're going to cancel all the valuable things ever been created because there's nothing going to be perfect enough.

And I think that's why this cancel culture is really

a cultural revolution.

And it's not going to stop by banning a few books or tear down a few statues.

It's a movement to really cancel the Western civilization.

The banning a few books, pulling down a few statues is just the beginning.

That's why I mentioned in my piece, I see the parallel between what's happening in America, really in the Western civilization today,

is really parallel to what's happening in China during the Cultural Revolution.

It's about a total destruction of the old world so the

book mob can create a ideologically purified new world.

That's why I find this whole banning of books and also eBay preventing you from even trading about it, trading a book volunteering, that is really problematic.

You know,

the Dr.

Seuss Enterprise, they only stopped publishing those books because the Woke Mob complained about those books.

It was not the complaint

was not filed because Asian people complained.

It was filed because the Woke Mob decided that they are going to cancel Dr.

Su's book and they're going to start with the most problematic ones and then they're going to go down from there.

They're never going to stop until they cancel everything.

You've lived through it.

You saw the cultural revolution with Mao and people say that that's crazy, that it would never happen here.

But I contend that

it starts with suggestions.

Then it moves to shoving people, shouting and shoving.

And when you've shouted and shoved everybody that you can, the only thing left is to shoot.

Is that crazy to think that that kind of thing, that this is just going to continue until you,

I mean, what are you going to do with the rest of the people that refuse to go along?

How does this end if we don't wake up?

Well, if we don't wake up, it's going to end just like the Cultural Revolution.

It's going to be a total destruction of the Western civilization.

And you're absolutely right.

The trajectory is the woke mob first going pick something that we all agree that's problematic right like the confederate uh statues like the dr.

Seuss book with a racial stereotype drawing so they're gonna pick something that's problematic to begin with then most of us will say yeah those you know we can accept those things maybe not correct but again they will not stop there because if you listen to their speeches if you look at their writings they are deeply hostile to the entire Western civilization because they believe this civilization is inherently irredeemably racist and oppressive.

So they're going to start with statues, they're going to start with a few books, but they won't stop until this whole civilization is being destroyed.

And

if there are people who don't willing to go along, that's what happened in cultural revolution is eventually you're going to have to use blood.

to purify the ideology, you know, to purify the ideology.

So that may happen if we continue down this road.

And people already losing jobs left and right, losing their livelihood today in America because they said something or wrote something that the woke mob do not like and they will condemn them, drive them out of the marketplace.

That's happening here right now.

Before I change subjects on you, I just want to point out that

it's not only that they're going to wipe out the culture, they wipe out even your personal history.

Helen, as she was reading about this evil landowner and how he was surrounded by kids and he and all landowners are evil, it wasn't until later in life that she learned that her great-grandfather was a landowner and that book was preaching against him as well.

She didn't know that.

Let me just hit one more thing with you before you go.

Next hour, we're going to talk about this

trend, they're saying, of white supremacists that are beating up Asians.

And it does not ring true to me.

We can't find anything that seems legitimate on this.

Do you have any insight on, is this happening where

Donald Trump fans are beating up Asians?

Well, so there's definitely a rise of hate crimes against Asians since last year.

So So it's complicated.

Last year,

some of the complaints, I should say, related to the coronavirus, the pandemic, the fear.

But this year, particularly in some of the most progressive cities in the United States, like San Francisco and New York City, there are several very

vicious attacks against Asian, especially Asian seniors, unprovoked attack against the Asian seniors.

And

those perpetrators, they were not white.

They were non-Asian minorities.

Let me just put it that way.

They were not white.

But the activists now and the mainstream media try to portray this very vicious attack happened recently, somehow was driven by the white nationalism.

There's just a disconnect there.

And I think I wrote another piece for the newsweek on this, you know, related to this subject.

Because when you are not willing to identify the true root cause of hate crime, you're going to cause the government to misallocate the resources and

not able to protect the Asian communities effectively and efficiently.

So I wish more people will speak up.

The Asian community have

spoken up against the critical risk theory.

And I wish more people will have the courage to speak up, identify the root cause of this.

The Asian community has made a huge difference on critical race on the West Coast.

And Helen, thank you for everything that you do, and thank you for your courage for standing up.

I know it's not easy, but thank you for your example.

Appreciate it.

Thank you for having me.

That's Helen Raleigh.

She is the senior contributor for The Federalist and the author of Backlash.

You can follow her at HelenRaleyspeaks.com.

Well, let me tell you a little bit about Rough Greens.

You've been talking, you've been hearing me talk about rough greens for a year now, and it's a supplement that you sprinkle on your dog's food.

It contains all kinds of vitamins and minerals and probiotics, antioxidants.

Stu's dog wouldn't go outside.

I mean, wouldn't really run around or do anything.

And I saw a video of your dog, Miles, a thousand years old, running around outside and walking right onto the ice in the pool.

And you jumped into that freezing water and saved him.

That's how I remember it.

It's a there might have been some details that you're exaggerating a little bit, but wait, wait, wait.

He fell into the water, didn't he?

And weren't you looking for him under the water?

No.

Yes.

Really?

Then I saw some, I saw a video of somebody.

No, it was you.

Tell me what happened.

He walked onto the ice.

He didn't fall through.

He almost fell through, and I went out and scooted him back, but he would have definitely been dead if he fell through.

He walked right by the open area.

I saw another view of the film.

Yeah, he can't see, and so he didn't realize there's snow on top of the ice, did not realize he was walking across the pool.

Luckily, I did see him and shift scoot him back.

But he does move around and he does run around a lot more than he used to.

So maybe you should stop feeding him rough green so he'd die already, so you don't have to run out in your song.

Don't I know it's horrible, isn't it?

Don't do it.

It's horrible.

I can't think about it.

He's 150 years old right now.

He was born.

He was at the actual signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Is this the.

I know.

He does look like that.

Yeah.

Is this the first dog that you've had grow old on you like this?

Well, no, we had Phoebe, our other pug, who

grew to 17 before she died.

Both of them.

I'm lucky to get to 12 with my dog.

We've had good luck with the dogs, but it's

not easier, man.

I'll tell you.

Rough greens, if you love your dog as much as we love ours,

get them rough greens.

I mean, they will love it, and you will see a difference.

And Dr.

Dennis Black, the inventor of of Rough Greens, understands that not everybody's dog is going to like this.

So he's decided to help you find out if your dog likes the product before you commit to purchasing.

I don't know anybody's dog who hasn't loved this stuff, but your dog is probably going to love it.

But you can get a free bag of rough greens now just for your dog to try out.

All you do is pay for the shipping.

So call them or go to roughgreens.com/slash Beck.

833-Glenn33, 833-G-L-E-N-N-33.

You can call them today.

It's roughgreens.com/slash Beck.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Mike Lee is going to be joining us in just a few minutes from the Senate.

He is going to talk to us a little bit about the For the People Act.

It's now heading over to

the

Senate.

And shortly thereafter, the PRO Act, which is the Labor Union Act, which is devastating, just devastating to freedom.

Also, we're at $30 trillion now as

our debt.

$30 trillion.

How do we maintain this?

I keep coming to this conclusion of like, there's some number, right, where we hit it and it's irreversible and we're really screwed.

And we're certainly

inching it, right?

They're saying 120%

is

of GDP.

GDP is the

no return, point over no return.

And we're not there

yet.

GDP is 21.4 trillion.

So if we're at 30 trillion.

Well, then we are.

Oops.

Oops.

Sorry.

You're screwed, America.

Yeah.

Sorry.

But maybe, you know, the idea is this is a temporary thing.

Surely, surely they're going to stop all this crazy spending.

And anyway, why are you laughing?

I don't know.

I just think you're funny.

Okay.

You're just cute.

I remember when I was young and naive.

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

This

is

the Glenbach program.

The gig economy.

Uber.

Uber Eats.

You know, DoorDash, anything delivered to your home.

Could be a thing of the past.

We're going to have to reinvent that reinvention.

Government's getting involved, and so are the labor unions.

57 million Americans now work as freelancers in some capacity.

But President Biden just endorsed a radical labor law that endangers the livelihood of Uber and everybody else that works in the gig economy.

But it doesn't go far enough just to do that.

It also curbs your freedom of speech.

It makes you pay for unions.

It takes away your vote if you want to vote in private and nobody knows how you voted.

No, no, no.

Now you have to stand in front of the bullies and say, no,

I'm not for the union and I don't really want a horse head in my bed, please.

That's all coming.

Plus, we're now at $30 trillion in debt and that number just keeps going.

Oh, oh, and we're changing the way America votes.

This is fantastic.

Mike Lee telling us what we need to know and what he needs as backup from the American people in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck program.

Ah, Omaha steaks.

You know that phenomenon when you happen to go to the refrigerator to see what you have?

And then you go back just a few minutes later as if the contents changed somehow or another?

It's weird.

We all do it.

Planning for meals is a hard thing to do.

And most of us, you know, don't do it consistently.

Sometimes we decide what we're having for dinner five minutes before it's time to cook dinner.

But if you could open up the refrigerator or the freezer every time and you had the makings of a good meal at your fingertips, I mean, that's good news.

We keep opening up like, what can we eat?

What can we eat?

Well, Omaha Steaks is shipping now.

Don't get stuck without great food in the house.

They have an unbelievable assortment of steak and chicken, fish.

They have the side dishes, the potatoes, the desserts, everything.

You want a great deal?

Try their butcher's bestseller package full of burgers, pork chops, sausages, desserts, and so much more.

You're going to get the best meat.

You're going to get the very best from their butcher's block and from Omaha Steaks.

Go ahead, A, B, compare them to your supermarket.

It is, it's,

there's no comparison.

You need this in your freezer.

Instead of going to the local butcher or instead of going to the supermarket to get your meat, get it from Omaha Steaks.

Type in Beck in the search bar for the special offer and order the butcher's bestseller pack today.

You'll save over 50%.

Plus, you'll get four free chicken breasts and four free burgers.

That's omahasteaks.com.

Use the keyword Beck and save 50%.

All right, let's

go to our good senator, Senator Mike Lee, who's got to be tired by now, honestly.

Senator, how are you, sir?

I'm doing great, Glenn.

Good to be with you.

But, you know, nothing is more invigorating for a tired man than going on the Glenn Beck program.

Yeah, it's got to be a highlight of your day, Mike.

So, Mike,

we have to talk about several things.

First of all, the For the People Act.

Is that thing going to pass in the Senate?

No, and if they try to do it, it'll be over my dead body that it passes.

Don't say that.

It might be.

This thing not only renders major parts of the Constitution superfluous, it renders the people superfluous.

It consolidates government in Washington.

It makes it impossible for states to require a voter ID.

It makes it impossible

for states to prohibit someone from showing up on the same day and registering to vote on the same day that they vote.

And it requires at least 15 days of

early voting.

It makes the verification process almost impossible to comply with.

And if there's one part of it that caught my attention, there's even a part of it that can be read to suggest that they're going to start allowing 17-year-olds to vote.

Which, you know, I would have loved because in the fall of 1988,

George Walker Bush was on the ballot.

I was the president of the Teenage Republican Club at MP High School and Provo, you know, like all the cool kids.

Yeah, you were cool from the beginning.

I actually wrestled with the idea of wishing I had a fake ID just so I could vote, but I knew that wouldn't be right, so I didn't do it.

Yeah, well, there's a crime, the Mike Lee crime spree finally comes out.

So, Mike.

But I want to be clear: I didn't do it.

I just thought.

I know, I know, I know.

So, Mike,

it's not going to pass.

Any form of it.

Well, look, they're going to try.

If not for the filibuster, they would pass this, and they would probably pass it tomorrow.

They're still going to try to pass it.

I'm not sure when they're going to try to bring it to the Senate floor, but I'm confident that they're going to try to get around the filibuster.

So,

do you have any confidence anymore in Manchin?

Now he's starting to like, no, I mean, you know, there's some nuance there.

Yeah, I worry a little bit about the fact that he is now targeted for immense pressure to be brought down on him

and

that he's in a position now of wanting to accommodate Democratic leadership whenever he can.

And that worries me a little bit because there are a lot of tricks they can play.

There are a lot of things they could do to convince him.

Oh, no, no, we're not nuking the filibuster.

This is just a minor technical correction.

We're not nuking the filibuster.

All we're asking you to do is take a walk, be out of the room while we have Vice President Harris rule that 51 votes somehow satisfies the cloture standard, and then just don't join the Republicans in voting to appeal the ruling of the chair.

That sort of thing can chip away at the filibuster and effectively nuke it without ever requiring Joe Manchin to vote affirmatively to do so.

That scares me to death.

So

this is the changing of the voting system.

It becomes almost irrelevant,

in my opinion, and very unconstitutional.

The federal government does not have a right to do any of this according to the Constitution.

Now let me switch to another topic.

Biden has just said that he

is encouraging the Senate and the House to pass

the PRO Act.

And that is the, I mean, you want to talk about a pro-union giveaway.

That's it.

Tell me what you know about the PRO Act.

I know very little about the PRO Act.

I can imagine that it probably has something to do with card check.

They probably want to take away the ability of workers to cast a private ballot.

It absolutely does.

It goes a lot further than that, but it does have that in it.

Yeah.

I mean, look,

Workers have got the right to form organizations,

but we've got established laws that govern the process of workers making that decision.

And it's important that workers be given the chance to cast their votes with a secret ballot and not being watched by

people who might impose consequences on them if they don't vote the way they want to.

That's a pretty fundamental part of our labor law system.

And if they want to undo that, perhaps they just want to empower the unions, not necessarily the workers they represent, but the union bosses.

That's not cool.

So

it also gets rid of the gig economy,

and it says it's protecting those people, but basically

it's

redoing what happened in California, and the people went nuts when that happened.

So he wants us to go back to the era of having to sit in smelly taxicabs.

Yes.

I mean,

that is absolutely absurd.

He might as well require us to go back to the era of the eight-track cassette tape and the era of the tinfoil T V dinner.

I mean, look, there are a lot of things that we've moved beyond as a society.

And the old pre-gig economy is not something any of us are anxious to go back to.

But I can understand why someone wedded to big labor bosses, as opposed to the workers those people represent, would want to shun technology like the plague.

It would want to deprive society of the many benefits associated with it.

It's tragic, but sadly not that surprising.

Mike, you don't have to answer this because I do want to talk to you about

the

COVID relief bill as well.

You have been so strong on this.

And

we're now at $30 trillion of debt.

But I do want to ask you, tomorrow, the President is going to have his first press conference.

And there's been some disturbing video recently.

Do you have any first-hand knowledge that he's

okay?

I don't.

I don't.

But, you know, I haven't had any interaction with him since he was sworn in as president.

So I don't have any firsthand knowledge of that or any knowledge beyond what anyone could see on TV from day to day.

And the benchmark against which one would compare that is relatively small because his TV appearances have been relatively short, relatively scripted, and in relatively controlled environments.

So, yeah.

Well, there is precedent.

There is precedent on this

when

people from the opposing party and his own party went to check on Woodrow Wilson.

He had had a stroke, and he hadn't been seen for a year, and his wife was actually signing all of the bills.

And,

you know, it's just

there is

historical evidence that sometimes people hide how sick the president is

if it's a problem.

And I hope that's not happening.

All right.

Talk to me.

Well, I certainly don't think that's happening.

We've seen some clips of him out talking to people, and, you know, just in relatively short spurts.

Right.

I don't think that's happening either.

I just, but if it's progressing, it could happen.

All right.

Talk to me about a $30 trillion

debt.

And your comment, I thought, was great on this.

It's not like Republicans can say, hey, we did everything we could.

They're part of the problem.

Yeah.

Well, first of all, we went on a massive spending spree over the last year.

And really, over the last four years,

Republican spending has not exactly been a model of restraint.

This one takes it to a new level.

This one makes an art form out of using COVID as the ultimate excuse for getting away with anything you want, even if it's hurting other people.

About $2 trillion that was spent.

Very little of it actually was tied to COVID.

And this comes about, by the way, at a moment when it'll take us up to a $30 trillion debt.

It comes about at a moment when we're starting to see light at the end of the tunnel.

Vaccines are coming out.

Immunity is building.

Infection rates, hospitalization rates, death rates are going down.

We're spending $2 trillion extra in the name of COVID, but very little of that actually goes to COVID.

In fact, less than 1% of that bill

goes to vaccine production and distribution.

So what the heck is it then?

Well, $1,400 checks, and then you got your $375 billion going to state and local governments, which, by the way,

are roughly on par with where they were expected to be revenue-wise.

Some states have even seen their revenues go up.

This is just a big giveaway, a giveaway, especially to a lot of states that have been loyal to Democrats.

And I find that really offensive.

So, Mike, what do you need from

the people?

Because I think people want to do something.

They just don't believe that anything will change.

And then also people feel very alone right now.

What can the people do?

All right.

What the people people can do, anyone within the sound of my voice who happens to agree that we've got a problem with Washington, that this stuff is just gross, just focus anytime you get a chance to talk to a member of Congress or somebody running for any federal office, talk to them about the fact that you'd love to see the federal government just do the things the federal government is supposed to do.

That means borders, immigration laws, weights and measures, trademarks, copyrights and patents, national defense, declaring war, granting letters of mark and reprisal, bankruptcy laws regulating international and interstate trade.

That's about it.

Focus on that stuff.

Focus on Article 1, Section 8.

Leave everything else to the states.

It's already the law.

It's already the Constitution.

It's already the case that every member of Congress and every president has taken an oath to affirm that same principle.

We got down this rabbit hole because starting about 85 years ago,

Senates, Houses of Representatives, and White Houses of every conceivable partisan combination have been engaging in this legislative orgy that assumes that everything is appropriately federal.

And they're spending more and more and more money doing a lot of times stuff that really isn't any of our business.

Spend most of that at the state and local level.

Send most of this federal authority back to the states where it belongs.

That's where I think the message needs to be.

Mike Lee, thank you so much.

I appreciate you standing.

I can't imagine how frustrated you are to be working in that.

But I'm glad you're there.

Thank you so much, Mike.

Hey, thanks so much, Glenn.

It's not that bad if you don't think about it.

You just keep plugging along.

I know that.

Thank you so much.

That's why I

wish I weren't a recovering alcoholic because just alcoholism would do a lot of wonderful things for me right now.

Let me tell you about Timeshare Termination Team.

You can tell Timeshare owners when you see them, you know, because you usually see them at the bar and they're on like their eighth drink.

And, you know, they'll talk.

Believe me, brother.

And

another thing, you want irony?

Hug if you

irony.

I bought that stupid timeshare so I could go on vacation.

And here's the ironic thing.

You want irony?

I bought a timeshare to take a vacation.

But now,

when I want to go, this stupid thing costs me so much, I can't afford to go on the vacation.

If this is you, when you sober up, it's time to call Timeshare Termination Team and take advantage of their 100% get-you-out guarantee.

100% get-you-out guarantee.

Timeshare Termination Team, get the process started.

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

You'll get 20% off when you terminate your timeshare.

So make sure you tell them that I sent you and you're going to get that 20% off when you use my name, Glenn Beck.

10 seconds station ID.

So, have you seen the price of gas lately?

Oh

my gosh.

Thank you, Joe Biden voters.

No, seriously, I think people all over America just love you right now.

Oh, and it's going up more and more.

The oil prices are up yet again today.

And this will be something.

Do you remember the days where that was a big news story when George Bush was president?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then

Obama was president, and it still went up.

And

no one cared.

Nobody talked about that.

No.

So I assume that we're going to get that treatment again here where gas prices will go up and it just won't be that big of an issue.

Because look, the climate is an existential threat.

Listen, we've got to do it.

You getting to work isn't one.

Yeah, we've got to do the things that we have to do.

You know the thing.

You know the thing.

As Joe Biden famously said, you know the thing.

Right.

The thing.

Pledge allegiance to the

thing.

The thing.

And he's got that guy.

in that thing across the river that does the military stuff.

Yeah, that guy, the general.

I call him general, but

I don't know.

He's kind of a general.

He's actually, the word you're looking for is secretary of defense.

And the

thing that he runs is the Pentagon.

That's just, I just want to.

He's the guy that, he's the animated general that sells the insurance, right?

It's that guy.

It's the general.

No, not the general.

Not that.

No, not that.

You can call him a general, but he's actually not a general.

The general he was talking about was actually a general, but now is a secretary.

How did a forced general become

a secretary?

Typing and stuff like that.

Don't we have other people to do stuff like that for those generals?

Imagine how much easy.

Every once in a while, I fantasize about this.

Just think about how much easier it would be to just be a liberal.

Like, I mean, it listed.

They have a president who can't talk.

And it's like, well, we just won't ever put him in front of the people and no one will say anything for six months.

It'd be so if we, what?

But you that's an option?

You wouldn't really know what you believe.

I mean, here's the good side: while we're all in the gulag, we'll know exactly what we believe.

Yeah, that's you know, wow, that sounds wonderful.

Yeah, yeah, that's uh, that's really what you're gonna care about because

we're questioned

all the time, because we have to defend ourselves now, literally all the time,

we know what we believe in, we know why we believe in it.

It humbles you.

It does.

Look at the arrogance of the left.

It's just, we know.

We know we're right.

We know what's best.

We know what's wrong with those people.

We're the only ones that can fix it.

I don't feel that way about anything.

I don't, the only thing I'm certain of is that I'm not certain of anything anymore.

And I do my best, but I'm open to other ideas.

I would, see, people don't understand this.

I'd love, it's like Stu said, I'd love to be a liberal.

I'd love to be in the popular group.

Love it.

Love it.

Love to, love to be able to have just a just a gateway to wild success.

You don't have to be good at things.

Like, you know, Barack Obama, he's getting like multi-million dollar contracts with Netflix for no reason at all.

Yeah.

This seems to happen to these guys just constantly.

And I meet with Netflix and they love what I have to say and then they have to run it by, you know, the powers of be and it just never seems to happen.

Darn it.

I was shocked.

This is the Glenbach program.

If you're living in pain, especially if you're living with constant and severe pain, like I have this pain in my,

and it's...

I tried to have it removed.

I think Friday.

They're having stew removed.

It sucks.

And it sucks the life right out of you when you're in constant pain.

Get out of pain.

Try Relief Factor.

I know you've tried a million things, but could I just ask you just to try this?

Relief Factor has worked for me in a huge way.

I still take it every day.

I just took it a couple of hours ago.

I take it every day.

Why would I do that if it wasn't working?

I could, you know, I could read the commercial and tell you I believe in it, but I take it every single day.

I believe in it because it's worked for me.

And 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to order more because it works for them.

Stew Does America and Glenn TV.

Yeah.

There is a real problem in America.

It's a new one.

You might not have heard of it, but it's starting to make the rounds and we have to take it seriously.

How do I know?

How do I know?

Well, let me start here.

AAPI, of course, you probably, as a racist, don't know what that stands for, but it's Asian American Pacific Islander.

And please, I implore you to stop hating them.

I don't know why people do it, Stu, but they

stop the AAPI hate.

They just can't stop hating Asians.

I don't know why they're doing it.

I know.

I know.

It's terrible.

And I wouldn't have known about this if it hadn't been for giant corporations.

That's how we get all of our moral leadership.

Sure.

I've always thought, what do the sneaker companies do?

You know what I mean?

What do they think about

making sneakers in like sweat camps in China?

No.

No way.

Not no way.

That's for sure.

No way.

Like Converse.

Converse says, hate towards one of us is hate towards all of us.

The strength of our community is demonstrated in the way we speak up for each other.

And we at Converse stand against hate, violence, discrimination, and racism.

We stand in solidarity with our Asian community.

Hashtag stop Asian hate.

Oh, that is great.

Now, that's just one sneaker company.

What about the other sneaker company?

Nike is another one.

Nike, to our Asian community, we respect you.

We are with you.

Nike condemns racism.

I like this one because they did it with the dark text and it's just like those words slowly faded up.

I like it.

Tommy Hill figure, we stand with the Asian community.

We must all be united against racism.

I don't even know this company.

Complex.

Yeah, just whatever they do.

Important things.

We stand in solidarity with the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities against the rise in xenophobic rhetoric, racist acts, anti-Asian hate crimes.

Join us and help stop AAPI hate.

ESPN, which rarely checks in on anything political.

ESPN stands with the the Asian community, rejects racism, xenophobia, violence, and intolerance.

HBO, hate has no home here.

We condemn racism, xenophobia, and all of its forms, including the rise of anti-Asian hate crimes in recent weeks since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

Nickelodeon, so our kids can do this.

We stand united against racism, hatred, violence, the recent rise of attacks against Asian American and Pacific Islanders.

Disney has a whole paragraph on it.

Disney Plus has another one.

I mean, I don't know.

I mean, I haven't heard from all of the companies, but it seems like there is a problem, Stu, with

what I gather is white rednecks hating Asians and just beating them up.

Well, I'm particularly concerned about HBO Plus, or excuse me, Disney Plus, because

if someone compares Asian American hate to the concentration camps, will they be forced to fire themselves?

We don't know.

We don't know the answer to that.

We don't know.

We'll get into it, I'm sure.

We don't know really soon.

Also, if you didn't see the company statements, you may have heard this from actress Olivia Munn, who went viral with her

passionate statement about Asian American intolerance.

Listen.

We've been going through so much in our community

and

going through this over the last year, you know, the astronomical spike in hate crimes against Asian Americans

and actually Asians and all communities where we're marginalized.

You know, I have friends in London tell me about that.

Gemma Chan speaks about that, that it's happening in London as well.

And

we go through all of these

struggles and hate crimes and just, there's so much pain and it feels like we haven't been seen.

This is legitimately shocking to me, I will say.

I had no idea Olivia Mumm was Asian.

I had no idea either.

I just saw her as beautiful.

Yeah, she said, I just said no.

I didn't know that, but that's interesting.

Shocking.

Why is this happening?

Why all of a sudden is every company on the planet, I think McDonald's came out yesterday with another statement.

Why are they doing this?

What is going on?

Well, it was so popular when they did it with stop the hatred towards Jews.

Oh, no.

They don't.

Oh, wait, no, they didn't do that.

No.

That's weird.

We'll have to ask Andrew Paul about how that's working.

So mainly the information comes from Russell Jung.

He is the chair of the Asian American Studies Department at San Francisco State University.

He created a tool which basically allows people to message the organization and tell them about the hate crime they were a victim of.

So if you're walking down the street, someone spits on you, someone says an anti-Asian slur, beats you up because you're Asian, you go to the website and you report it to stop AAPI hate.

And then

the media basically parrots whatever.

So let's say you were walking in an alley in Chicago and you were just going to the store.

You had gotten home and you were alone and there was one place in the alley where the camera wasn't pointed to.

Oh, no.

And you were jumped by a bunch of guys who the cameras never picked up.

Sure, sure.

And they put a noose around your neck.

Okay.

You could just call and report that.

Do you have a Subway sandwich?

Well, I did, okay.

And I never dropped my Subway sandwich in the whole time.

You could report that.

I could report it.

It is an important detail here that this is a self-reporting website,

not a measure of criminal statistics by the FBI.

That doesn't mean it's not happening.

No.

And actually, some of it is happening.

There's been videos that have been circulated.

Horrible videos.

Do we have the video of the guy getting pushed to the ground?

I mean, these.

I hate this.

I mean, this guy just

elderly guy just gets

hammered

for no reason from behind from this random guy passing.

There's another guy.

I saw another one where a guy's in a subway.

He does exactly the same thing.

Yeah, the Biden administration put out a big statement about this.

But can we think about what's being alleged here for a second?

This is what stuck me, initially got me going on this.

We're basically told that the coronavirus starts in China.

And that apparently begins a simmering hatred among evil Americans on the other side of the globe.

Then Donald Trump starts using the term China virus.

Now, the mainstream media also used it for months, but it was only effective, apparently, to these racists when Donald Trump started saying the China virus.

So he started saying the China virus,

and that inspires these people.

And then after sitting around in sort of pseudo-quarantine for like a year,

They one day decide, you know, this is the day I'm going to go out and just start beating up Asian people

because I'm mad about the virus that started in another country

and the flu.

see this is what happened it was stuff like this that has created this

little china flu

I mean I look I don't have a high expectation of America of the American people at times I could get a little cynical as you may know Glenn yeah but are people have you ever met a single person who would be so dumb that they would go beat up an Asian American person because a virus started in China now I'm not saying none of them exist.

But let me tell you this.

I have met people

so dumb, fill in the blanks.

I've met a lot of them, okay?

But you have to change that with so hateful, so dumb and so hateful that they think that that guy who's Asian is somehow or another responsible for what happened in China.

Right.

That's a combination that I think is probably pretty rare.

They don't run the Chinese government.

The guy you see walking down the street, who happens to be Asian, does not run the Chinese government.

There's a much better chance he's actually escaping the Chinese government to come here.

So let me ask you a question because they're making this sound like it's a Trump supporter thing, a white supremacist thing.

Yeah.

And

they keep saying how it's happening in Berkeley.

And I...

I'm not sure there's a lot of MAGA supporters.

Yeah,

it's not a hotbed.

Yeah, you know,

in fact, the video we just showed is actually from Oakland.

Now, first thing you need to know about this video is that this is a quote from the report.

The suspect in the Oakland assault, Yahya Muslim.

His name is Yahya Muslim.

He was charged with three counts of assault, including great bodily injury and committing a crime against an elderly person.

I mean, nothing's screaming.

Wait,

that's not the guy who was down on the ground.

No, the guy who pushed him and charged with the crime was named Yahya Muslim.

And there's nothing that screams white supremacist more than a guy named Yahya Muslim.

I will say, can we please stop blaming the Muslims for everything?

The whole Muslim family.

Yahya, Jermaine, Tito.

All of them.

All of them.

None of the Muslims did this.

Stop it.

So

you're in there.

This is in Oakland.

Okay.

Now, Donald Trump got a lot of people to vote for him.

Can I go back to that?

But not in Oakland.

Can we blame Pippa?

No.

We can bet Pippa Muslim.

Okay.

She's probably guilty.

That's okay.

All right.

So Trump lost in Oakland 82 to 16.

Right.

This is not a hotspot of Donald Trump voters.

Well, that's because they were all,

I mean, he had the real number was 156 to 86.

Oh, really?

And they were all stolen.

Oh, okay.

Because there's a lot of conservatives there in Oakland.

Tons of conservatives in Oakland.

A lot of them.

Some of these reports on Asian American violence have talked about a ninefold increase in New York City Asian hate in New York City.

Yes, you've seen that.

So, again, New York City, not exactly a MAGA hotspot.

He lost by more than 50 points in New York City.

Okay.

But the ninefold interest increase appears to be true.

However, the raw numbers are it went from three incidents in 2019 to 28 incidents in 2020.

That's 28 too many.

It's 28 too many.

100% correct.

And it is an increase and it's notable.

However, it's 28 incidents in a city of 10 million people.

So is that just Manhattan?

Well, no, it's New York City proper, I believe.

So it's like 8.4 million, I believe, is the population.

Because the metro.

The metro is even bigger than that.

Yeah, it's like 17 million.

In the first two months of 2021, there were precisely zero incidents of this.

So is this an increasing

trend?

Right.

This is the thing.

There was 18 incidents in Oakland, but the law enforcement there says there are no, there's no evidence whatsoever that any of them were racially motivated in any way.

In San Francisco, there were six hate crimes against Asians in 2019 and nine in 2020.

Slight increase, but I don't don't know that this is an epidemic level.

In Washington, D.C., the opposite happened.

There were six incidents in 2019 and one in 2020.

There is a lot of issues here, and a lot of it goes back to the self-reporting data.

This is from NBC News.

Some outlets have also reported almost 3,000 hate crimes during the pandemic.

The reporting form Stop AAPI Hate, which is at the center of almost all of this, they collected 2,800 reports of hate incidents nationwide over five months last year.

But the incidents weren't necessarily hate crimes.

They included less severe, yet insidious, forms of discrimination, including shunning,

verbal harassment, and name-calling.

Now, I am 100% anti-shunning, Glenn.

You should not shun Asians in any way.

Well, no shunning.

If they're conservatives, they should be shunned.

Okay, yes.

Asian conservatives should be wildly shunned.

If they're Uyghurs, we should shun them.

Shun away.

Shun them.

Yeah.

Double shun if you need to.

Right.

But not Democratic Asians.

Never shun them.

Okay, so

we agree that Asian Americans shouldn't be shunned.

Yeah.

Right.

Yes.

We got that.

Yes.

You know, and this is just not just conservatives, by the way.

New York Times also went into this.

They say that the stop AAPI hate, which started after the coronavirus began, is saying there's an increase, but

they can't compare it to the previous year because the organization didn't exist.

So

they went from zero to 2,800 incidents because there was zero, right?

Because there was zero.

The organization didn't exist.

Also, there's a lot of people, and we noticed it with the Yahya Muslim family,

that happen to be African Americans.

The New York Times even asks this, how does this explain attacks by black people?

Were they also acting as Mr.

Trump's white supremacist henchmen?

Do we really believe that there is some coordinated plan by black people to brutalize Asian Americans?

This is not me asking this.

This is in the New York Times.

So the bottom line is this is a self-reporting

situation, and it seems to be, we're not going to hear about this when the FBI released the actual crime statistics in 18 months and we show basically a flat line.

That's not going to be a story.

It's going to be a story until then, but you should at least know the truth.

Well, you shouldn't shun anyone.

No shunny.

You shouldn't be shunning anyone for really any reason

other than, I mean, racism is so,

it bothers me.

It really bothers me because it's so lazy.

Get to know somebody and then hate them.

Just don't hate them based on their skin color.

That's just lazy.

All right, Michael Burry.

You know the name.

I know Stu is a big fan of

the movie The Big Short.

If you haven't seen it, you should.

It's about how the largest U.S.

financial institutions were, have been, still are, screwing the average retail American investor.

Kind of like GameStop.

You notice that?

Wow.

As soon as you started getting ahead, the system came down on you and allows them to get away with whatever they're doing.

They're taking enormous risks with your money.

You're busy buying

GameStop stock, and whatnot, and then getting shut down if it works out.

Dr.

Burry hasn't gone away.

He's now talking about a real Weimar Republic-style hyperinflation of the U.S.

currency system based on the gazillions of dollars that we are printing.

I'd love to get him

on the show.

We should get him on.

Bottom line, it's time to hedge against all that inflation.

The dollar will become worthless at some point.

And I think, I mean, I just don't know.

I don't know the time.

I just know it's going to happen.

Call Goldline now.

They have a great special going on with every tube of certified gold Liberty coins, which I buy.
