Thank you very much.

Hillary, I want to talk to you about home title lock.

I got a crash course into a home title theft and you gotta pray that this doesn't happen to you because it can ruin you financially.

This is how the crime happens.

Legal titles to your homes are kept online where they can be hacked.

A cyber thief finds your home's title, forges your signature on a deed, and then you say, oh, well, they sold their home.

I have it now, and I'm going to borrow against that equity.

Your equity is your financial future for so many Americans.

It's your retirement plan.

It's probably how you're going to pay for everything.

You know, you're going to be borrowing against that equity for years to come.

You're not protected by insurance for this, your bank, your common identity theft programs.

Home title lock isn't a common identity theft program.

It It does something different.

It protects you against home title fraud.

And in the unlikely event you become a victim,

well, you know, look, it's becoming more and more likely that you might become a victim.

And you want to be protected because you're talking about a quarter of a million dollars legal fees to try to restore your home's title.

And that goes on top of what you're losing from your equity.

Home TitleLock.com, HomeTitleLock.com.

Register your address, see if you're already a victim, and then use the code RADIO for 30 risk-free days of protection.

The radio program begins in just a moment.

Rudy Giuliani with our delection update.

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

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

We only have a few minutes with Rudy Giuliani, and we got a lot to talk about.

We're going to start there in 60 seconds.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Well, guess what you're getting your stocking this year?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Your timeshare maintenance fee.

How great is that, huh?

Timeshares.

Oh, it sounded good, right?

When you were offered a free Mai Tai, it was so great.

But boy, don't you wish you would have, you know, eaten your arm,

you know, instead of signing anything with that arm?

Right now,

this is just tying you up.

You're not able to use it.

Most likely this last year, maybe not this year.

Get out of your timeshare.

There is one group that can do it legally and 100% guaranteed.

It's Timeshare Termination Team.

Get the process started today.

Don't put it off.

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

You're going to get 20% off when you terminate your timeshare.

Make sure you tell them that I sent you.

It's 888-GET You Out.

1-888-GET You Out.

That's 888-438-8688.

Or you can go see them online, timeshare termination team.com.

money-back exit guarantee.

Because it is the Christmas season, I'm going to call him by his full name, Rudolph Giuliani, is with us now.

Hey, Rudy, how are you?

I'm good, Glenn.

How are you?

I could be better.

We could not have,

Donald Trump serving another term.

Real quick, I want to touch on this.

Will you guys, are you continuing the investigation?

Yes, we are.

There's no reason to stop it.

I mean, there's so much to investigate.

So now what we're doing is we're going to forensically examine the machines.

It took all this time to get them available to us because all these secretaries of state are playing cover-up.

But we're going to start examining the machines in in Arizona, in Maricopa County, to see how similar they are to the machines in Michigan that turned out to be 62% inaccurate.

And I'd like you to note that the hearing yesterday, Krebs, Mr.

Krebs said, oh, he read that report.

And, you know, 62% clerical inaccuracies.

I mean, you know, so what?

That means more of the vote was wrong than right.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

And I read the report and I read his testimony too.

He acted like he said it was nonsense.

I couldn't even understand the report.

I read the report.

It's easy to understand.

It's very easy to understand.

The machine is like a computer.

You can change it anytime you want.

Yeah.

It's not a counting machine.

It's a calculating machine.

So is there a possibility of a special counsel or anything that can't be stopped?

There is a possibility of that.

And I think that

once we get these preliminary results from Arizona, we can see whether one is justified.

I also think there's a chance that if we could uncover

10,000 votes that were changed in Arizona, the Arizona legislature might just take this into their own hands.

The people of Arizona actually almost had a popular rebellion.

The state legislature was about to put this aside, and they started demonstrations about 10 days ago all throughout Arizona because they claim they know their election was stolen.

Now, think of why they know their election was stolen.

He lost by 10,000 votes.

How many illegal immigrants do you think voted in Arizona?

I know.

100,000?

200,000?

Of course it's stolen.

7,000 dead people voted.

That's pretty close to stealing it right there.

Rudy, we have a real problem

if we don't trust the process.

If we lose trust in this vote, we have nothing left.

It is vital that you and others continue to find the facts.

And when you have a buttoned up case, when you have a Hunter Biden

computer,

you've got to release it.

And it's got to be, this has to stop.

Are you convinced at all that we can trust the vote in Georgia?

No, it's the same machine.

Yeah.

They haven't changed it one bit.

The same illegal rules.

They're already saying that there's more turnout now in Georgia than there was for the general election.

Well, there's no reason to believe that it'll be an honest vote.

The machines are not

secure machines.

They don't have signature verification.

Donald Trump can sign anything, anything they want.

And Donald Trump has been saying you've got to go out and vote.

I want to switch because I know you are short on time.

Let me go to Bill Barr and

Durham, the special counsel.

I mean, I'm really disappointed in Bill Barr.

I know everybody loves him, but I'm very disappointed in him.

There can't be anyone who had more respect and more trust in Bill Barr than I did.

I don't know what happened.

I really almost can't answer for it.

It's totally inexplicable to me, particularly since...

The Hunter Biden allegations and the Joe Biden allegations are two years old, Glenn.

I know.

I know.

know.

Two years old.

They're not.

Is it new?

And he knew it, and he wouldn't verify.

And he hid behind, well, we just don't do that.

No, no.

That's...

Am I wrong, Rudy?

Of course you're right.

I tried to make that point.

He could have first done this 18 months ago.

Right.

Well before the election.

I tried to argue to anybody I could, it's better to do it now.

Then wait until after the election.

Right.

Let's do it now.

Let's get it over with.

Maybe it's true.

Maybe it's not true.

If it's true, he can't run.

He's got to go to jail.

If it's not true, well, then he was wronged and he'll probably win.

I think conservatives are missing the point on this.

They're all saying, oh, look, the press is admitting it now.

No, they're not.

They're saying this is a tax scandal.

This is a money laundering scandal.

It is also

on the same emails that

are being

touted as true now by the mainstream media.

They leave out the big guy.

They leave out the, my dad needs a key to the office.

All of that stuff.

This implicates.

They leave out the one they used to hate me for putting on television.

They actually kept me off television for a long time because of this one text.

Hunter Texas' father, or he texts his daughter,

I had to always kick back half to pop for 30 years.

Right.

That's the whole conspiracy, 30 years of kicking back to pop.

Will there be a special counsel?

Can the president appoint a special counsel and will he before he leaves office?

Well, this is

my advice as a citizen.

I can't tell you my advice as a lawyer, but my advice as a citizen is we need to have a special counsel.

We have to get to the bottom of this.

And don't make no mistake about it.

The target of the investigation is Joe Biden.

Hunter is a small player in this.

Hunter is like

one of the soldiers in the mafia.

Joe's like the head of the family.

And there's plenty of evidence against Joe.

You can't, one of the reasons they don't want to really open up the investigation, if you open up the investigation, immediately Joe goes to the top of the list of people that have to be considered for indictment.

Right.

Immediately.

No

competent investigative prosecutor wouldn't do a chart here.

It's a family case, gone on for 30 years.

I'll tell you who's on the top of that chart.

And there's evidence who's been getting money for 30 years.

Yeah.

All right.

Let's talk about pardons for a second.

I know we've got to cut you loose here, but

please tell the president he should pardon his family.

And I know that doesn't cover

state things, but they are going to

kill that family any way they possibly can until he says, I'm never going to run again.

And I hope he just keeps stirring it up when he gets out.

He should also look into pardoning Lil Wayne, Lil Wayne,

for

his support for Donald Trump.

He's now

getting trouble.

Oh, my.

Well, I'm sure he's looking at this very, very carefully.

And that's something I really can't talk about.

But

the president has a big heart.

The president knows what nobody knows better what happened than the president of the United States.

Nobody knows the full magnitude of this obstruction of our government.

This could be the worst thing that's ever happened internally in our government.

Oh, I think it is.

I think it is.

The civil war was out front.

You know, we have a war.

It's internal trying to...

Yeah.

It's been going on for a long time, Glenn.

This has been planned for a long time, much longer than people think.

Rudy, keep fighting.

And please, please.

you two, and please tell the president how grateful we are.

And we've never seen anybody take bullets like him before in our name, and we appreciate it.

Thank you, Clinton.

You bet.

Thank you.

Yeah, Merry Christmas to you.

Rudolph

Giuliani, former mayor of New York City and host of Common Sense.

That's a podcast.

And of course, the attorney for President Donald Trump.

All right, let me take a one-minute break and then we come back and and cover some of the other crazy news today.

We'll do that in a second.

First, let me tell you about American financing.

If there's one thing that Americans are used to, it's standing on the precipice of change.

Sometimes it's good, sometimes not so good.

Now,

I just heard that it looks like the Fed is going to keep interest rates down.

They might even go lower.

I can't wait until they start paying us to take out loans.

Won't that be nice?

Except, here's my prediction.

You won't be able to get a loan.

You won't be able to do it, but the banks will be able to do it.

So the banks will be able to borrow money from the Fed and they'll make lots of money.

Oh, wouldn't that be great?

Do yourself a favor.

Give American Financing a call today.

Don't wait.

You don't want to put this off.

See if they can't help you take your level of preparedness to the next level by getting into a new mortgage or a consolidation loan without resetting your mortgage.

It's American Financing at 800-906-2440-800-906-2440 or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

Hello, Stu.

Glenn, how are you?

Oh, my.

Are you kidding?

What?

How deeply are you in the Christmas spirit right now?

Oh, my God.

Enthralled completely?

Oh, my gosh.

Yes.

I've got bells on my feet.

That's good to hear.

I didn't hear them.

No, well, I don't do a lot of walking nowadays.

No, so no.

It's tough.

It's with all this stuff going on.

It is a tough year, but I think people are desperate to kind of jump into the holidays a little bit.

Yeah.

But it's kind of tough to deal with it.

We had Nicole Arber in yesterday.

Tonight on Blaze TV, about an hour, an hour and a half interview with her.

She is fascinating.

She is, I swear to you, she's like a lost sister.

I've, she said so many things, even on the air yesterday, just in 10 minutes, we've never met before.

And honestly, my producers asked her, honestly, without even me knowing it, who prepped you?

Who told you?

Did you, were you told about Glenn, about X, Y, and Z?

She was talking about Martin Luther King and how if anybody resorts to violence, we lose.

I've never heard anybody else really talk about that.

In the same way that she talked about it, is this way I talk about it?

She came out and she's like, I am a huge fan of Walt Disney.

I asked her, Who are your comedic, who are your comedic heroes?

Because she's a comedian.

Lucille Ball and really Desi Arnaz.

Desi really didn't get credit for it.

And I'm like, come on.

You're a freak.

Just like me.

The Glenbeck Show Bible.

Yeah.

Somehow she came across.

Yeah.

And she is, you know, she's going to talk about on this podcast.

I recorded it yesterday with her.

She talks about her struggle.

You know, she was hit by a car.

She was getting out of a car and she was kind of twisting.

She had one foot in the car, one on the ground, and somebody rear-ended the car.

So she came down.

She kind of snapped her back,

banged her head really hard.

For 10 years, she was in bed, in bed for 10 years.

Doctors said she'd never walk again.

She would be

on

convalescent care for the rest of her life.

Some of that sounds bad, but...

10 years in bed sounds interesting.

I'm kind of, I'm willing to sign on to it.

Yeah.

I'm willing to sign on to a couple of years just to check it out.

Yeah.

Just to do my research.

Yeah.

You know,

but she's fascinating.

She said, I was suicidal.

I was ready to off myself.

She said, I had the plan.

I was going to do it that day.

And she said, and I swear to you, I heard the voice of God.

And she said, he strangely sounded like Denzel Washington.

So I don't know.

I don't know.

Maybe, maybe, I mean, I'm Morgan Freeman, I could buy.

Even Even strangely,

in 2020, if God sounded like William Shatner, okay, yeah, probably,

probably.

But she said he sounds like Denzel Washington to her.

And he said, not time to give up.

It's time to get up.

Get up

and

walk.

And she's like, I can't really walk.

But she was so motivated by it, she started really listening to spiritual leaders and religious leaders.

She's listening to, you know, Christian podcasts every day.

She cut out all negative stuff.

Yeah, she was, she was uncomfortably positive a few times.

Yeah, I told her

that Poppins would just beat the snot out of you.

You know, Mary would be getting up one morning and like, okay,

cheerleader, I can't take it anymore.

But she's the most positive person.

And she said one of the biggest changes in her life came from

not watching crap.

She said,

I don't watch anything that's real negative.

And I'm like,

I feel the same way, except with positive inserted instead of negative.

It's true.

I don't watch enough of that.

I was in,

I don't know, this is a while ago now, but it was like a park, and there was someone who was like jogging in the park.

And, you know, and there was like a short little path around.

And every time she passed, she had the biggest smile on her face.

Now, first of all, you're running, so like, that's hell.

And you're basically torturing yourself for no reason.

She should be in an asylum if you're smiling while you're running.

And we kept joking about how every time she would pass by, this gigantic, she was listening to something funny.

And something, this gigantic smile was on her face the whole time.

And I was like,

it was one of those moments you wanted to say, like, I'll have what she's having.

Like, I wanted to know.

Yeah.

You know, I think that is true.

You can get yourself sucked into like really dark programming.

Like, I love shows like Breaking Bad and Bizarre.

I love them.

I love them.

But you can get overwhelmed by it if you watch too much of it.

You really do need to balance your diet on that stuff.

Can I ask you what's not like that?

I'll have to get back to you on that one.

Yeah.

I mean, honestly, what's not like that?

I mean, I understand Christian programming and, you know, old Disney films, but really, what's out there that is

happy?

That's not like, this is the best murder show I've ever seen.

I do watch a lot.

You get into one of those true crime documentary series, and like it's so enthralling.

And then you realize you've just been

you've just gone through, you know, hours and hours and hours of thinking about murder.

Right.

Like right now, I'm reading

Hitler Downfall, which is the, there's a two-part, you know, long biography series by

a German author.

And

it is a...

God,

so it's a biography?

It's a new one, yeah.

Like, you know, they have, about every eight to ten years, you get a new, like, this is now the, this is now the biography everyone talks about about Hitler.

And so 2016, I think it was, the first one,

Hitler Ascent, came out.

And now

Hitler Downfall.

They're really, really good and really, really like a thousand pages each.

So it takes you a long time.

But then you're spending a thousand pages reading

on Adolf freaking Hitler.

I need some time off.

Can we turn on those arts?

It's like you're.

I know.

It's bad.

It's probably not healthy.

She's probably making the right decision.

No, I could pretty much guarantee she's making the right decision.

Yeah, you're probably.

You know, I mean, you know,

the old line that I've, I've often quoted, that which you gaze upon, you become.

And it is, I mean, I'm not going to become Hitler by reading the book about Hitler.

I've come out

white nationalist.

You know, reading about Hitler in this sort of detail, really convinced he's a bad guy.

You know, it really is.

Really, because I didn't need to go deeper on that one.

I pretty much had that.

I pretty much had that.

Volcker Ulrich is the author.

I would definitely recommend it.

I mean, it is really, really good, and you get a real deep deep understanding.

And you see a lot of the patterns that we warn about.

You can see how you go down these roads.

And then you get into that, and you're like, crap, I keep.

Now I'm thinking about that all the time.

And it's not a.

I really shouldn't have to say that.

It's not a happy place.

It's not a happy place.

We were talking about,

what was that diary that I read?

Was it Surviving Hitler or something like that?

Written in the 1930s.

Have you read that yet?

I haven't read it.

No.

You still.

Dude, you have to read it.

I read it a year and a half, two years ago.

And every page I'd read, I'd be like, oh my gosh, that's happening right now.

I can't even imagine.

I'm going to reread it.

Yeah, Surviving Hitler, a Boy in the Nazi Death Camps.

So, I mean,

that's not it.

That's not it.

That's not it.

No.

I'll have to look it up.

I'll tell you after the break.

Okay.

But it's really good.

And I'm also reading V two or V1

about the Rockets.

Oh, really?

Oh, it's really good.

It's a novel, but it's really, really

good.

Anyway, okay, I think enough Nazi talk for today.

Something positive.

We have Franklin Graham joining us next.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

All right.

Well, that's that took us to an unexpected place.

There's an awful lot of bad stuff that is out there, obviously.

And you don't need to put this on your plate as well.

When it comes to your identity, this could ruin your credit, put a huge stain on your financial credibility.

It could take years and years to fix.

I mean,

somebody could have used your identity to vote for Joe Biden.

Your identity will never recover from that.

When it comes to protecting your identity, what you really need is Life Lock.

They will detect a wide range of identity threats.

I mean, nobody can monitor everything,

but they monitor things, you know, like your social security number for sale on the dark web.

If they detect that your information is being used in the network, they will send you an alert and work with you to fix it.

Blazev.

Hey, today's going to be a

very positive show.

I'm going to try.

Because I just,

I'm done with it all.

I mean, I just can't take any more of just living that

doom and gloom all the time.

We've been in it now forever.

And And can we just have a couple of weeks where we just talk about good things?

Because there's a lot of good things going on.

Do you hear about the guy down in Florida?

He's not a rich guy.

He just put out $7,000 and paid for anybody who was behind on their electric or gas bills.

in his neighborhood.

He does it every year, apparently.

He saves up all year and he does it every year for anybody who's behind because

he was in that situation when he was younger and had a young family.

And he said

we had almost frost inside the house because I couldn't afford food and heat.

So now he does it every year.

And I just think that's great.

And if I knew where he lived, I would move into his neighborhood so I could skip like six months of paying my bills every year.

Anyway,

Franklin Graham is with us, and everybody knows who Franklin Graham is.

Samaritan's Purse

is really an amazing charity.

We do a lot of work

with Franklin's organizations.

He's got Operation Christmas Child going on now.

How many years has Operation Christmas Child been in operation?

Glenn, 27 years.

27 years.

And did you start that?

It was started by a man in England who wanted my help during the war in Bosnia if I would be willing to collect some shoeboxes here and we would give them to children in refugee camps.

And we did that for two years and the guy in England said he didn't want to do it anymore.

And I thought, you know,

this is a good thing.

We're going to keep doing it, see what happens.

And here we are, you know, 27 years down the road in almost 200 million boxes.

And you are, this is the largest Christmas project of its kind in the world.

It is.

I mean, I don't know of anything.

There may be other programs that may be bigger, but I don't know of them.

This is just huge.

And it's something God has done, Glenn.

Tell me about it.

Well, it's just, you know, people have asked me, you know, finding, you know, how did you come up with this idea and all this kind of stuff?

I didn't.

It's just God.

God has taken that simple idea of taking a shoebox and giving it to a child, and he has multiplied it like the fishes and loaves.

It's incredible.

People get excited about it.

Churches do it.

Individuals do it.

Businesses do it.

And we want every child that we give this box to, we want them to know that God loves them.

And that Christmas is about God's love.

The Bible says that God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him shouldn't perish but should have everlasting life.

God so loved the world.

He loved us and he sent his son Jesus Christ to take our sins.

And I want the world to know, I want the children of the world to know how much God loves them and how much they mean to him and how precious they are to him.

And so we ask everybody who packs a box, pray for the child who gets the box.

I don't know who's going to get your box, but God does.

And this year we'll collect somewhere around 10 million boxes.

Jesus.

And having 10 million people pray for 10 million children.

I mean, you know God's going to hear those prayers and do something fantastic.

So you can do this, and you can participate just by going to SamaritansPurse.org, SamaritansPurse.org, and you can pack a shoebox virtually, and it's hygiene stuff.

It's a toy.

What else can you put in these things?

Well, we put toys, we ask them for school supplies.

You'd be surprised if kids don't even have pencils

and crayons.

They don't have a pen.

We ask them to do something like put a comb, a toothbrush.

You would be surprised at how many children have to share a toothbrush with somebody.

And you give them their own toothbrush, and how excited they are just to get a toothbrush.

But, you know, a wool hat, so some gloves, sunglasses, that is a huge thing, a flashlight.

Most kids in the world, when the sun goes down, they're in the dark.

And to give them a flashlight is huge.

You know, it's amazing.

I was just talking to somebody yesterday, Franklin, and I said, if you asked anybody, anybody of any age,

when, if you could choose when and where would you be born,

and unless it's in the future sometime, which I don't know if I would choose that, everyone would say today

in the Western world, you know, America.

And yet we are tearing ourselves apart.

We're whining about everything.

We are saying it's not good enough.

And yet when you go overseas, and I know this to be true, when you go overseas and you give a child or even an adult something very small that you probably just throw away and you don't think twice about it, it's a very big deal.

It is a huge deal.

And we we are very rich in this country.

Even the poor of our nation are rich compared to the poor in other countries and so we are I think we're we are spoiled and we are influenced so much by what people watch on television or in the movies and that has a big impact on on us and our lives but but in spite of all of that Glenda there's there's some good things out there.

I know.

We have some wonderful people.

One of the things we do is we send about 800 doctors and nurses every year to go work in missionary hospitals around the world.

These are volunteers.

They pay their own expenses, and they go to some of the toughest parts of the world just to give.

And it just thrills my heart when I see these people go.

I've got a team I was meeting with just yesterday, and they're on their way to Yemen to work for Samaritans Person.

And sharp young men and women, I thought, you know,

this country, there's hope when you see young people like this willing to go out and sacrifice and give their best to help other people.

So I'm encouraged.

Glenn, when we go through the election like we just had,

people have asked me if I'm disappointed in the result of the elections.

No, you know what my answer is?

I'm grateful.

I'm grateful to God that for the last four years we've had a president who put America first.

I'm grateful, and I thank God for that.

I'm grateful that he appointed conservative judges.

I'm grateful to God that he supported life.

life.

We have never had a pro-life president like Donald Trump.

And so I'm just grateful for what's happened these last four years.

And we need to pray now for the president-elect that God would put maybe some good men and women around him that would help him.

And he would do some great things for our nation.

But we need to pray.

Our country, no question, is in trouble.

We're divided politically, morally, spiritually.

We're just a divided nation.

nation, and only God can bring us back together.

And my hope is not the old Valafas.

My hope is in God.

Yeah.

I will tell you that, you know, I was against Donald Trump in 2016.

I just didn't believe that he would do any of the things that he said he would do.

He ended up doing more, and I became a big fan of his.

And, you know,

I've been overwhelmed in the last few days of, and I don't know if people, you know,

understand

this,

but because I was against him, and it bothered me when people said, no, he's gonna, he's gonna be on God's side.

I'm like, how, how,

how?

And yet, God is the best at making lemonade out of lemons.

Any kind of, anything, anything flawed, he can still use.

And he used Donald Trump, I think, in big, big ways.

And I didn't see it.

So I don't know what's going to happen in the next four years, but I do know that that it's all going to work for God

God has a plan and there's no question and when you when you read the scriptures and when you read the book of Revelation the things that are going to take place in the future many people believe that those things will happen probably

sooner than we think yeah and the Bible predicts that there's going to be a one world system a one world monetary system a one world government and we know right now that there are there are globalists.

That's what they call themselves.

And that's really what they want.

They want a one-world system.

And they want a one-world electronic type of currency.

And the technology is here today, Glenn.

You know that.

I know, I know.

And it could happen.

And so it's kind of exciting.

You talk about what period of history would you like to live in?

Well, today, no question about it, because we're seeing, I believe, prophecy being unfolded before our eyes.

I agree.

And when you read the last pages of the scripture,

God wins.

It's not the Democrats or Republicans.

It's God.

I mean, he wins, and he puts his son on the throne.

I don't know if this makes me a pessimist or an optimist, but

this summer, I prayed an awful lot about what do we do and where are we?

And I really feel as though there's a good chance that we are living in those days that have been prophesied for a long time.

I don't know when, but

it actually made me feel better because I was like, oh, God's got this.

He's going to solve this.

And I don't know if that's going to happen in my lifetime or whenever, but looking at it,

looking at our problems, trying to look at it through his

comforting eyes, it actually works.

Yes, it does.

And this is an exciting period of history, Glenn.

And so, you know,

when we ask ourselves, what should we be doing?

Well, Jesus told his disciples to go into all nations and to make disciples and to baptize them in his name.

And, you know, that's what I want my life to be about.

I want to tell others about a God that loves them and his son, a Savior, Jesus Christ, who came from heaven to this earth to take our sins.

I want the whole world to know that.

And I know that there are many people that are angry and mad and discouraged.

Well, listen, just take a deep breath and realize God made you and created you, and He's got a plan and a purpose for your life, and you need to find out what it is.

And if you confess your sins and return from them, repentance,

repent from your sins, and believe on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, you can be assured that you'll be saved and your sins will be forgiven.

And when you leave this world, whatever that day comes, you can have that confidence knowing that your soul will be in the presence of God for eternity.

Franklin, I want to thank you and wish you the best of Christmases and this season.

As you know, you, your father, your sisters have played a big role in my life, whether you know that or not.

But I'm grateful.

There have been some very important moments in my life that are connected to your family.

I don't think that's what that means.

I think I'm going to go there, though.

I think, you know, it's what the Chinese have, stakeholder capitalism, where everybody, I think everybody gets a big steak.

I remember in the old days when my mom would say, oh, the people in China are starving.

Nope.

Stakeholder capitalism.

I can't do it.

I'll just have to give it back to you, Glenn.

I've got something

that was exposed by Trevor Loudon.

You know, Trevor.

You remember Trevor?

It's been a while.

Yeah, it's been a while.

It's been since, you know, Obama left off.

That's when he, yeah.

Yeah.

Because we haven't had people like Anita Dunn running around going,

you know, Mao was my favorite.

I remember that.

Geez.

And the smacking of the lips, I do remember as well.

Yeah, it's like, have a glass of water, woman.

But there is,

there's a new document that he has uncovered

that is

demanding that Biden clamp down on conservative Christians.

And we're talking about

you must destroy destroy them and re-educate the country.

And when you look at the authors and the people behind this,

they're all from Congress.

They're all members of Congress.

This is a real document?

No, I made it up.

It's not your reporting.

No, I know.

It's a real document.

I'll give you the original source.

We're going to post it at Glenbeck.com here in a few minutes.

We'll post the original document, not the story about it, the actual original document.

So you can read, and you can read about the group that all these congressmen are in, and some of them are founding members of.

And it is,

you want to talk about a war on Christmas?

Nah, this is just an out-and-out war on Christ.

And it is where we're heading, including Warnock in Georgia.

He has just said we have to, quote,

we have to dismantle the value system.

Hey, I want to welcome a new sponsor to Blaze TV.

The world in 2020 can feel unstable and dangerous.

You can live in fear.

You can get yourself a gun.

Maybe you live in a place that you can't get a gun.

Maybe you live in a place where you're just not comfortable with a gun.

Whatever it is.

Taser has created life-saving self-defense technology.

Taser.

Its line of non-lethal self-protection devices are small, lightweight that you can carry them around.

You know, your

pants or your glove compartment or your purse.

So, Stu, you can carry one around.

They use an electrical charge to immobilize attackers for up to 30 seconds, allowing you time to escape and send emergency dispatch to your GPS location.

Taser devices come loaded with features like laser-assisted targeting, emergency dispatch, which sends the police or response team right to you.

Soon as you pull the trigger, it automatically says, Police, emergency responders, we need you here.

Right now, Taser is available without a permit in most states.

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

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Do you want to understand why this

big push with the media and with the left to get you to lock down, especially to lock down your church?

Well, it's going to become very apparent in 60 seconds.

Stand by.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

So I was,

you know, talking about, you know, security and people in their homes, you know, in New York.

And

you want home security?

Here's what you do.

You get yourself a bucket of paint and a paintbrush.

You go to the side of your house, you paint a big door there.

Then you go to the front and the back of your house and paint the doors to look like the walls.

That way, when somebody tries to break in, he's going to hit the side of the house.

Bada bing, bada boom.

Problem solved.

Another tip from Andrew Cuomo.

That's great.

Or you could do what tons of normal people do and get yourself a SimplySafe system.

Top-of-the-line cameras and sensors.

You're going to be able to cover the entire house inside and out at all times.

You can monitor it yourself remotely from your phone or device.

You also have Simply Safe's video verification team monitoring it 24/70 if you wish.

And it's like 50 cents a day.

You know what I'm saying, eh?

Right now, get a free home security camera when you purchase a SimplySafe system at simply safebeck.com.

You also get a 60-day risk-free trial, so there's nothing to lose.

Leave the gun, take the cannoli.

Simply safebeck.com.

All right.

You know,

do you remember the good old days when Bill O'Reilly was just talking about a war on Christmas carols and Christmas trees?

Sounds quaint.

Yeah, they don't come back.

Those days are long gone.

There is a new group calling themselves the Secular Democrats of America,

and they have sent a letter to Biden's team.

Now,

when you say, I never heard of the Secular Democrats of America, that's okay.

I hadn't heard of them either.

They are founded and backed by many congressional Democrats.

So these are congressmen and women that have written this 28-page document that I am posting right now at Glennbeck.com.

So

I don't need the story on it.

I want you, I'm going to tell you the story.

I want you to actually see from their own website

restoring constitutional secularism and patriotic pluralism in the White House.

This is their proposal.

In this proposal, you're going to love it.

It was presented by Congressman

Jamie Raskin.

Is that a guy or a girl?

Check out.

You know what?

Gender is is not important to me, so I don't think about it.

Jared Huffman from California,

endorsed by Congressman Jerry McInerney of California.

And in this document, you will see that it talks about how the incoming Biden administration must educate the American public, particularly those who are identified as the religious right,

because they need to keep their religious dogma to themselves.

They talk about

a purge of social conservatives from all levels of government, labeling them white nationalists and of course, everybody's ever popular conspiracy theorist.

The document states, and I'm going to quote, The constant entanglement of religion and government promoted by the religious right and intensified by the Trump administration sweeps far beyond hot-button culture war issues like abortion and contraception.

It permeates every aspect of government policy, healthcare, public and private education, foreign policy, tax policy, environmental policy, military policy, and more,

all of which are going to be addressed in this document.

Oh, that is fantastic.

Now,

it also has

a whole part of this this document, a whole section celebrating the response of COVID-19 and climate change.

And you know, it's weird if you've done any homework on the Great Reset,

it's like using the same language.

It's great.

It is great

because it's calling, you know, really for a new global economic and social order,

which is

great.

It's a

scientific authoritarian kind of government run by unelected technocrats, which is Woodrow Wilson's dream.

And how much do I love Woodrow Wilson?

You actually say, I hate that guy every time he says his name.

Well, I think everybody knows what you're just saying is a lie because I'm part of the in-group.

The document chastises President Trump for not following all of the arbitrary, constantly changing rules coming from the World Health Organization, saying, quote, policy decisions, listen to this,

this is congressmen,

congresspeople,

congress units.

Thank you.

Policy decisions, quoting, that should be guided by science and evidence on matters ranging from climate change to comprehensive sex education to federal funding for stem cell research have been skewed or blocked entirely by powerful religious interest groups and further undermined at every turn by the Trump administration.

There is no example more grave than this administration's lethal mishandling of the COVID-19 global pandemic, which has brought death to hundreds of thousands of Americans.

Disregard for science and disdain for expertise has reached an all-time high in this administration of magical thinkers and conspiracy theorists.

But these policy distortions did not begin with the Trump administration and will not end without deliberate action to restore rationalist, scientific, and pragmatic policy methods and judgment.

We believe now that the time is right now and it is right to make the case for reviving a Jeffersonian approach to governance that favors reason and science and here's a word you don't hear very often, evidence,

and

disentangle government policy from the influence of sectarian religious interests that have become dangerously entrenched at all levels of government.

Ooh, we got to get them out of there.

We have got to get them out of there.

Maybe we can.

Everybody loves camp.

Maybe we can send them to a camp.

The paper states, still quoting, we urge you not to underestimate the institutional strength of what we refer to as interchangeability, I think it is, in this document, and it is the Christian nationalist movement or the religious right.

God, God, that's an interesting combo of things.

The religious right being an organization that, you know, the moral majority and like, hey, we should not,

you know, commit sins and and things of that nature.

And then Christian nationalists is,

you know, a god.

Well, that would be Father Coglin, which was a social justice organization.

Hardcore Republican activist, right?

No, no.

No.

But I mean, like, you know, they're trying to get you to associate the typical religious Republican person with a white nationalist.

Yeah.

They're racist.

They're nationalists.

They need to, They need to go to camp.

They really do.

Do you remember Anita Dunn, the lizard lady?

Okay.

She's not a big fan of Chairman Mao.

She was a character from the early seasons of the Obama administration, if you remember that wonderful documentary.

And yes, I do remember her making a speech, and I do remember the main thing I remember about her is not even what she said about Mao.

I just remember her licking and smacking her lips throughout the entire speech.

So anyway,

she was a big fan of Mao and

Chinese communism

and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, which, you know, just forced the Chinese people to submit to his view of life, which was anti-freedom, anti-God, anti-religion,

you know, anti-free market.

Pretty much anti-people after Mao killed about anywhere estimated between 50 and and 90 million people.

You know, after 50 million, you just stop counting.

You're like, I don't know, does it matter anymore?

Yes.

I just want to point out, yes, it does matter.

So here are the authors.

Representative Jamie Raskin, son of Marcus Raskin.

We got this tip, by the way, from Trevor Louden, who is, I mean, that guy's a warrior.

Marcus Raskin was the founder of the Institute for Policy Studies, which Loudon says has connections to the Soviets back to the 1970s.

Jamie Raskin, who is a congressman now, has long connections to the Democratic Socialists of America.

He's written for their publication.

He's what Trevor would call a smart communist, one that's like, oh, no, I'm not a Marxist, communist.

Oh,

those are dangerous people.

No, I'm just thinking.

You know, I'm just out here trying to be pragmatic.

Another author is Congressman Jared Huffman of California, a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus,

which was established by Bernie Sanders, a socialist.

Isn't that weird?

Now, in the document that you will find at Glenbeck.com right now, it calls on Biden to make the following changes.

Now, listen to these.

Eliminating government support for all crisis pregnancy centers and all abstinence-only education programs in school.

I'm a big fan of Mao.

Deny free speech and religious liberty to select Americans based on their religious beliefs.

How on earth can this be real?

It is.

I know, to be legitimate.

I just don't, I don't understand how it is 2020 and we're going into 2021.

Told you 2021 is going to be worse.

Incentivize states to strip parents of all non-medical exemptions to mandatory vaccinations for children in schools or daycare centers.

Here's the tried and true.

In God We Trust has to be removed from currency.

Repeal the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

Rescind and replace the Trump DOJ's federal protections for religious liberty.

Appoint an attorney general who will support governors.

Listen to this.

Appoint an attorney general who will support governors who emergency COVID-19 executive orders restrict gatherings at houses of worship.

Now, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

You're an anti-God organization.

I thought that was just for public health and safety for COVID.

Now, all of a sudden, wait, you want this as an anti-got.

You know what this is?

I realized this

a couple months ago.

How long does it take to make a habit?

They say 30 days, four weeks is a habit.

So many of us have been in the habit of going to church every Sunday.

How many

have that habit completely broken in their family?

Sometimes they still can't legally go right now.

Right.

But even just because of the break that happened earlier, I think a lot of people got used to either going online or not doing it at all.

And, you know, the online thing can fade a lot quicker than this fall, like September or something, we were going back to church.

Our church was opening back up.

We were going back to church because we had been, we can watch it online.

We watch it, you know, every Sunday as a family.

And so we do our own sacrament meeting and we watch it online.

We were going back to church.

We had a threat that was manifesting itself around the church.

And sorry about that, by the way.

Yeah, I know.

Stay away.

Stay away.

Look, I did a lot of things.

It was kind of restraining order.

But anyway,

so we decided that we are still going to stay out until

a certain date when the threat kind of goes away.

Sure.

And I realized

we are now almost a year

without going every day.

We still do something on Sunday.

We still kind of, you know, Tanya makes us dress up.

So we still get dressed for Sunday, you know, service, but it's in the living room.

I don't want to go back.

I'm digging that.

Yeah, it's kind of nice.

It's really nice.

But it's breaking our habit of doing something.

Part of going to church, at least for me, is

doing something i don't want to do

tony roberts tony robbins it's straight out of sunday school i know it is uh i was a sunday school teacher for a long time strangely they said stop teaching um

uh tony robbins told me he said i have a dip pool that's like i don't know he's so tall it's probably like 18 feet deep

uh and just about three feet by three feet something like that he keeps it at 57 degrees, I think.

He said, Every day I get up, I walk outside, I jump into the dip pool, get out, and I start my day.

And I went, Well,

I didn't think I was going to put that on my list of things I'm never going to do.

That's terrible.

Yeah.

And he said, No, it's awful.

It's awful.

He said, But I tell my brain,

or I tell my body,

I'm in charge of you.

I'm going to, I control you.

You don't control me.

And he said, it's just this mindset.

And for me, I do not want to get up on a Sunday morning and go to church.

I don't.

But I do it because I tell my body and my mind,

You are a servant of the Lord.

Do what he asks you to do.

And it's important

how many of us are out of that habit.

And once you break that habit, if you're somebody who is just like, I just go because it's tradition, are you still going?

Are you going to go back?

This is why they are shutting our churches down.

They are doing it to intentionally

destroy the church.

And I think this is evidence.

We could say that, but I believe this is evidence.

Their goal is to destroy the church.

They want a DOJ ahead of the DOJ to come out and be appointed that will support those governors who have draconian

edicts against going to church.

Wait, there's more.

You can find this entire document at Glennbeck.com.

All right.

Let me tell you about AMAC.

If you're in the age range where you're starting to think about joining a seniors group,

sucks, doesn't it?

You're like, wait a minute, no, that's not, oh, crap.

Anyway, the group to join is AARP.

It's important to know.

I'm sorry, did I say AARP?

Do not join that.

Sorry.

Don't say I.

I was, by the way, looking,

you know, you watch the church thing at home.

Yeah.

And it is a different experience.

Totally.

You know, you were watching it on TV.

A lot of times I'll watch it on my phone.

pop the headphones in.

You're listening, you know, and every once in a while I've noticed there's a sermon going on.

I'm hearing about Jesus, all those important things.

And at the same time, I might be making changes to my fantasy football lineup.

And that isn't exactly what I would be doing if I were sitting in Christmas.

I was sitting on my couch

with the family last Sunday.

We're watching it on TV.

We're watching it on YouTube.

And

I'm sitting there and I'm looking at the Christmas tree and I'm seeing all of the holes where all of the ornaments are.

And I get up and I start moving.

And my wife says, sit

down.

She's such a task, mate.

It's tough.

Now, I will say, there's a reason why I'm in the playoffs in both leagues and have won.

I mean, I've been putting my time together.

God's work.

That's all I'm saying.

If God wasn't with me, I wouldn't be doing so well.

Rescind and replace, going back to this document, rescind and replace the Trump's DOJ federal protections for religious liberty.

Reverse the Trump administration policies that have allowed faith-based government-funded contractors to provide adoption and foster care services.

Why would you want to do that?

The foster care system in the hands of the government is

Hey, right.

Hey, man on the street.

Yes.

What would you say if I offered you a My Pillow at $70?

Oh, well, I would say my pillows are the best pillows and are worth $70.

That sounds like a good deal.

Thank you, sir.

Holy cow, Mr.

Man on the Street.

Have we ever met before?

We certainly have not, but I am digging strange sleep advice for you as I walk down the boulevard.

I'm shocked.

I didn't know the average man on the street knew as much about the fine, fine sleep you'll get from a MyPillow.

Sleep is very important, Glenn, and $70 is an easy price to make.

Well, what if I told you you could get it for $49.99?

That seems impossible.

Well, it is because they're offering it at $29.98.

I could buy a thousand of them.

You can?

Right now.

Can I borrow some money?

Right now.

The queen-size pillows, $29.98, king-size, $5 more.

Coming up in about a half an hour, we have something really, really...

I'm very excited about it.

The whole team has been excited about this.

We've kind of been beaten down by the world in the last year, and

we want to do some good here in the next hour and all day today.

We're going to be highlighting some

amazing stories of people and business and what they've been going through.

But we're going to give you an opportunity to help, not just these businesses, but other businesses.

In fact,

we have a story of one person who said, I don't want the help.

She has terminal cancer.

She's losing her business.

She went to work

while she was having a masectomy.

I mean, it's a tragic, tragic story.

But she's like, look, my business is already dead and I'm on my way.

I just want people to know that people all over the country are struggling and she's not asking for any help.

I just love it.

But we have set up a GoFundMe page

and you can find at GoFundMe.

And I think you, it's just gofundme.com slash

Glenn Small Business.

I think you can find it at Glennbeck.com.

Also,

I painted my COVID paintings and

I wanted to do them for small business.

Today, we've made them very affordable.

They're what are called Giclays.

And you can buy them now at Glenbeckart.com.

And today, for the next 24 hours,

everything

that you buy

at Glenbeckart.com, every penny will go to help small businesses.

So it's another way for maybe you to get a Christmas gift for somebody.

I can't guarantee that it's going to make it.

Yeah, this is when you do the thing that I do, which is you print out something on the internet you bought 10 minutes ago, put it in a card and say, darn these shipping, this shipping right now.

All these vaccines, they're just slowing down the FedEx trucks, so nothing's arriving on time.

You know, we have, for Glenbeck Art, we have everything ready to go.

And it was supposed you were supposed to be able to do it until Friday, but I just want you to know I don't trust the shipping.

There's so much, there's so many things.

Right, that's what I was saying.

It's the shipping's fault.

Go to Glenbeck.com and I'm sorry, go to Glenbeckart.com and

buy something today if something strikes your fancy.

Okay.

Now, let me go back to this report we were talking about just a few minutes ago.

That is also posted at Glennbeck.com.

Not the story on it, the actual document from Congress members.

And by the way, Rashida Tlaib is part of that group, and she just, she's great.

I love her.

I want to get my advice on religion from Rashida Tlaib because she's wonderful.

I told you just a few minutes ago why we're shutting down churches, my theory, and I think this document proves it.

We're shutting down churches and we're being so harsh on churches in some states.

The reason why is they're trying to destroy our churches and break all of our habits.

You know, for how many of us, if you're out of the habit of going to church,

you know, are you going to go back?

Hopefully,

everybody would, but I'll bet you you lose at least 10, maybe 20%,

at least for a while.

And that's not good.

Let me give you another example.

Georgia Senate candidate, Reverend Raphael Warnock,

says

he vows, quote, to dismantle the value system of America.

The value system.

Meanwhile, the Bible spends most of his time talking about how to treat the poor and the struggling and the stranger.

And

don't misinterpret what Jesus is saying.

Jesus is saying you'll always have the poor with you, not because God ordained it, but because it is what it is.

And that's the way it has to be.

The poor are going to be with you because of the evils and the excesses of the empire.

So I vow to you, I will dismantle the value system of the empire.

I already told you that I came to preach good news to the poor, to open the eyes of the blind, set the captives free, preach the year of the Lord's freedom.

In other words, I came to dismantle the value systems of the empire.

But here's the problem.

Religious folk who should be fighting with me against the empire are in cahoots with the empire because the early church was a socialist church.

Okay, you know what?

If you want a socialist church, hey, that's a lie, but

a socialist church is not bad.

Do you know why?

You can always opt out.

There's no guns involved.

You don't like it?

Go to another church.

Easy.

A socialist church, a church that says, you know what?

We want to put all of our money into one big pile.

And we're going to give it back.

You just earn your money, put it in a pile.

You take what you need, and we trust you.

Okay, I don't want to go to that church.

I'll do that when Jesus arrives, but I don't want to do that.

But if...

If my church decided to do that because we were all living in crazy poverty and it was the best way to help out, I don't think it would work.

but I could choose to do that or not.

A lot of early churches tried that.

The pilgrims tried it.

The Mormons tried it.

And it's fine.

It's theoretical.

It's not the socialism that was realized pragmatically, or in practice, at least.

Correct.

It's not been real.

Right.

It doesn't work.

They always fail.

However, socialist church,

that's totally different.

That's totally different than a socialist government because a church requests tithing.

They say to be a good member, you should do this.

The government just takes it from you.

And by the way, when the government takes something that you have earned, that doesn't soften your heart.

There's nobody who's...

If you have kids who got their first paycheck, What's the first thing they said when they got their paycheck?

Wait a minute, what's all this stuff being taken out for?

I earned that money.

Oh,

really?

And you still want to be a socialist?

You want more taken?

Well, I want less taken out of mine, but I don't care if it's out of yours.

That's wrong.

That's wrong.

Aren't we all in this together?

I know churches don't say, at least mine doesn't, 10%.

Well, 10% from you, because you're okay.

2% from you.

And that guy over there, he's got a lot.

50 for him.

That's not the way God works.

10%, everybody.

10%.

What's your church charge to buy yourself out of gluttony?

Oh, my gosh.

It's really, in my church, that's the only thing we can do is like eat and eat ice cream and make good cookies and everything else.

So gluttony is not really a sin.

I mean, it is.

I don't think that's a good one that we're all like, yeah, I am a Mormon.

I'm a glutton.

Okay, Lord?

And he's like, okay, I mean, you've suffered enough.

Come on.

That's not exactly doctrine, per se.

Again, I was asked to stop teaching.

All right.

Next story for you.

Pennsylvania Department of Health.

Pennsylvania Department of Health led by the lovely.

And can I say that?

I think we should all say that.

Would you not say Dr.

Rachel Levin is lovely?

She does seem lovely.

Oh, no, she is lovely.

And I don't mean that in a she's got a sweet spirit sort of way.

She's H-O-T-N-Fuego.

She has issued a,

by the way,

look her up.

If you don't know who we're talking about, look her up.

You'll agree.

She's lovely.

She looks like she used to be a man, but I'm not pointing that out.

She's a lovely woman.

Anyway,

she has issued new rules for large gatherings, but not just any large gatherings.

Pennsylvania Department of Health, led by Dr.

Rachel Levine, has now issued new rules for large gatherings where you might end up having sex.

Is that an orgy?

That seems like, that seems like a

bathhouse.

What is that?

That's the old-time name that is, I don't know.

It seems dismissive of the wonder.

Look, we all walk into large gatherings where you might have sex.

I mean, it just happens to all of us.

You know,

how many times have you walked into a large gathering and then all of a sudden everybody's naked and you're having sex with each other?

Now, COVID has changed things a little bit, but how many times before COVID did you walk into a target and, you know, these things just happen?

And all of a sudden you're like, this is a target?

It's changed.

Large gatherings.

This is according to Pennsylvania now.

Large gatherings are not safe during COVID-19.

But,

but,

if you do attend a large gathering where you might end up having sex,

Here are some tips to reduce your risk of spreading or getting COVID-19 through sex.

Helpful hints.

You can't, you can't go.

You cannot go to church.

You shouldn't go to a large gathering where you're going to end up having sex with a bunch of people but if you do

you got to have some information on that first thing according to the department of health from pennsylvania

the amish have really lost the state haven't they think that's a new thing per se but yeah uh first thing according to rachel who is as hot as the rachel on friends

It's just more

different style of friends.

Well, it's a different circle of friends.

Not those TV show friends.

Right.

Like that circle of friends where they're all ugly.

Anyway, limit the number of partners.

Oh, I'm out.

I mean, what?

Limiting what?

It must be unlimited.

That's the only choice.

Damn state makes a recommendation like this.

Oh, my gosh.

Try to identify.

Try

to identify a consistent sex partner.

I've been trying, I just can't do it.

We gave it a world,

we tried to identify a consistent sex partner, it didn't work out.

Wear a face covering.

Well, see, that's easy because I only attend the orgies where we're all wearing masks.

You're an eyes wide shut 24/7.

Wear a face covering, avoid kissing.

Listen to this:

wear a face covering, avoid kissing, and do not touch your eyes.

This is real.

Yeah.

This is real.

The two documents that I've been talking about this hour are insane, and they're real.

Wash your hands with soap and water often, especially before and after sex.

I will say, just to a little addendum to this one, if you're going frequently to parties where you're having large gatherings and just having sex and you can't identify a single sex partner, COVID COVID or not, wash your hands after sex.

Now, do you mean after each sexual encounter or just wash your hands before you get there, wash your hands as you're leaving?

I would say bathe in bleach every 12 minutes.

Okay.

All right.

I say, why leave the bleach?

If you usually meet your sex partners online, happens all the time.

Yeah.

Where else are you going to find?

It's 2020.

Where else are you going to find?

You're not just always going out to strange orgies.

No, usually you're going to at least organize them online.

I mean, like, I'm so tired.

I'm playing the game of what do you like?

What do you don't like?

Just let's get to it.

Anyway, consider taking a break from in-person dates.

How dare you?

Okay.

What do we do?

What are the alternatives?

Well, video dates, sexting, subscription-based fan platforms,

chat rooms may be good options.

So the state of Pennsylvania is recommending OnlyFans to

the citizens of the state.

That is where we are.

Yeah, that's where we are.

That's where we are.

And most of all, protect yourself and your partners from COVID-19 during sex parties.

You know, it's just one step too far.

The state trusts you to make these safe.

decisions.

No.

But you cannot open your business.

No.

You cannot go to church.

And if you do go to church, don't you dare sing.

Don't sing.

Now, can you go to church if you expect to have a sex party at church?

I think if

you expect that, it's probably a single thing.

And if that ain't the best of both worlds, I don't know what is.

We are so screwed.

We're screwed.

We are so screwed.

We are so screwed.

That's what the whole point of it is.

I'm telling you.

Temp and toss.

Whether you're...

This is the.

What?

I was going to say.

No, I'm not going to say it.

You're not going to say it.

Look, if you walk into a room,

just put temp and toss on everybody's forehead.

You're like, look, before we have sex, I need to know everybody's temperature.

I'm looking at step four here.

Skip sex if you or your partner are not feeling well.

If you feel unwell or even start to feel unwell, avoid kissing, sex, or any close contact with others.

It would be great if they could hand out temp and temp and toss.

As you walk in to these parties.

Babe, you're burning up.

Yeah.

You're hot.

Yeah, look, you're hot and you're hot.

I'm sorry right now.

It can't happen.

Anyway, Temp and Toss, whether it's for sex parties, whether it's for the Ford Motor Company where they're not having sex,

or if it's with your kids, the best way to have a...

Not the sex part with you.

No, I know.

I know.

What do you mean?

I don't know why you paused.

Because you just looked at me like that.

Sick.

This is radio.

No one knows that that occurs.

People should know the way you're thinking.

You're a sicko, you white nationalist.

Taking temperatures is not easy, especially with kids.

That's why you need temp and toss.

Best way to take a temperature both accurately and for hours at a time.

The paper thermometer, you stick to the forehead.

Once it's there, it gives you an accurate temperature readout all day long.

No must, no fuss.

You got a crying baby and a sick baby.

You don't have to wake them.

You don't have to do anything.

Just put the temp and toss on the forehead and you'll be able to monitor all day long.

It's not uncomfortable.

It's not inconvenient.

Big companies and parents are now using Tempin Toss.

In fact, Ford Motor Company is using it for all their employees.

You can use it at home.

Just pick it up at usual drugstore.

Or you can go to tempentoss.com slash back to work and you can buy them in bulk.

Tempentos.com/slash back to work.

Tempentos.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

We're getting a lot of calls from Pennsylvanians that are saying that the health secretary, Rachel, was actually Richard.

What?

Yeah.

I'm looking at her.

She's beautiful.

I'm looking at her right now.

I can't believe that.

And why, if it's true, why are you dead naming her?

Trump supporter, I'm guessing.

Is that what it is?

Tell you about our spotlight sponsor.

Are you always offending your liberal in-laws or maybe you have a Democrat at the dinner table and that's going to be happening over the holidays, even though that's not allowed?

One of the new sponsors of the show is an author with a book that I bet we all wish we'd had earlier this year.

It's called How May I Offend You Today?

by USA Today best-selling author Susanna B.

Lewis.

Lewis calls out the cancel culture and tears it apart in a really funny look at our current situation.

If you don't know how to respond to our friends' political rants on Facebook, here's a great take on why so many people are thinking what they're thinking, but are afraid to say out loud the real truth on everyday topics such as public displays of affection, t-shirts with indecent images, and of course, politics.

Weaving together anecdotes from her distinctly southern life with frequent references to the Bible, what she calls our manual for living.

Good way of thinking about it.

Lewis says,

what many of us have thought and in the process encourages us to stand firm in our views and our values.

It's a witty, down-to-earth book, an inspirational message.

How may I offend you today?

It gives readers everywhere the boost necessary to make it through the most difficult and trying days.

For anyone who's facing a holiday, get together with people who they're bound to disagree.

They need this survival guide.

It's How May I Offend You Today.

Available everywhere.

Books are sold.

So it's an amazing amazing audience.

And I want to talk to you about the entrepreneur.

I want to talk to you today about the people whose lives are on the line on this fight against COVID, which has turned into a fight against authoritarianism.

We begin in 60 seconds.

You know,

viruses get weaker

when they are really strong because they kill the host and then they die.

And only the weaker ones survive.

Only the weakest virus survives because it could feast on its host and it could spread to another one and it doesn't die out when the host dies.

We're killing the host right now.

This virus is eating the Western world's lunch,

and it's killing the host.

Over 300,000 Americans have died already from COVID-19.

We know because we see the numbers every single day.

300,000 Americans.

That means

there are millions of Americans who are going to spend their first holiday season without a loved one.

But one of the other parts of this devastation that nobody seems to care about

goes beyond the loss of human life.

It's the loss of one of the greatest, most special aspects of our society.

It's the small business, the small businessman, the small businessman's family,

the children that are being taught in no uncertain terms now, the government controls everything.

And if you're an entrepreneur or a small business, it's pretty risky.

I don't know about you.

I grew up in a bakery, and I grew up in a small town, Mount Vernon, Washington.

It's still a small town.

The carnation plant used to be down at the end of the street, the milk processing plant, and it still had the steam whistle at noon

every day.

It was a special place that had mom-and-pop stores because everything back then was mom-and-pop.

Yes, we had Sears and JC Pennys,

but everything else was locally owned.

And there were special places.

The movie theater wasn't an AMC.

It was the Lincoln Theater.

It was an old silent movie theater

that was just this relic, and I remember seeing Star Wars there.

How are they faring through this?

It's still open.

Remember the candy shop or the ice cream parlor or the bakery or the bike shop or whatever it was

that we would visit?

Hot summer days we'd go down and we'd dream or we'd just want to cool down or whatever it was.

That special restaurant you went to only on birthdays, and that was the day your mom would say,

Okay, you can have soda.

Every single one of these places has an American with a story of resilience and bravery and courage behind it.

And every single one of those places is now at risk, if it's not passed for them already, of never opening their doors ever again.

We've lost 300,000 Americans.

But did you know, has anybody talked to you, that we have lost 100,000 small businesses permanently just in the first two months of this pandemic?

It's been 10 months now.

A million businesses have closed their doors forever.

Millions of Americans have poured everything into a dream and now nothing to show for it.

If you're a small businessman, I know the pain.

I know the pain of struggling.

My dad lost his first business.

There have been times here that we have really gone where we where my wife and I would look at each other and we would cry ourselves to sleep and say, it's just not worth it.

It's what

It's just too much pain and too much misery.

Because what about all the employees?

Entrepreneurs are proud people.

They built it from scratch.

They're one-man shops, do it myself, brought myself up by the bootstraps.

These people are heroes.

And nobody, not one of them really wants to ask for help, and certainly not from the government.

But the government is putting them out of business.

Some of them are now asking for help.

Others are saying their business is beyond saving.

But but

please just tell my story because maybe it will save another business.

This hour I want to exercise a muscle.

I believe we are all God's hands and feet and back and fingers, and he uses us.

This hour, you're going to hear from four small business owners around the nation, from Boston to California, who all have the same nightmare scenario.

Their stories are different, but the success of their business all relies on the decisions of a common enemy.

The city and state leaders who seem almost adamant that small business is so important to communities around the nation, it's so important now to make sure they perish.

I want you to listen to their words.

I'm I'm going to give you a way to donate, and it's going to be divided among small businesses.

It's going to help some of these businesses.

And then hopefully we raise enough, and we're going to start helping small businesses all over the country.

I want you to go to gofundme.com/slash glenn small business.

You can just go to glennbeck.com and you'll see.

Also,

if you go to glenbeckart.com, all my COVID and everything on my website at Glenbeckart.com,

every penny of it that we raise today will go to

this small business effort on GoFundMe.

So please, if you're going to do some shopping, you want to buy a gift for yourself or somebody else, just at least look at those.

I'm not making any money on it.

Just go to Glenbeckart.com.

Now, before we hear their stories, I want to tell you the story of

one person who couldn't come on the radio today.

Her name is Rochelle Ratto.

She was the owner of Boat Barn Bagels in Canyon City.

That's in Colorado.

She was just awarded the best new business of the year.

She is fearless.

I mean, she would whitewater raft, skydive, camp out in the Colorado Mountains where, I mean, you could be eaten by a mountain lion.

What are you crazy?

National Guard,

two children.

This best new business of the year, month after month after month,

was getting worse and worse and worse.

It was dying each day just a little bit more, a cruel sort of death for this business.

And after months of crippling financial stress, watching her business die,

Rochelle took her own life.

Best new business.

She did it.

She was an explorer.

After nine months, I can't do it anymore.

Sherry Rogers, her mom, addressed the Canyon City, Colorado leaders a week later.

Listen.

The financial toll to her was huge.

And it's my opinion that she's a casualty of COVID.

She loves this town.

She just couldn't take it anymore.

She tried, she tried, she tried.

She couldn't take it anymore.

So my very last thing is

there's probably people in this room that have said, I can't take it anymore.

I don't know that I can stand up to this anymore.

Business owners who

are at their last dollar or their last, you know, whatever.

And I just want you to reach out to others.

That's what this is about.

Sherry wrote an article on Facebook.

If you happen to be watching the Blaze, she's just a normal person.

She's somebody.

Her mother is just somebody that you see every single day.

She wrote, I'm trying to live life without my daughter in it.

It's not possible.

I see her everywhere.

I'm still not able to articulate how she completed me as a mom, how every day she was woven into my existence, always a part of my thoughts and plans, always wanting more time with her.

I used to sing, You Are My Sunshine,

even when she was an adult.

She will forever be my sunshine, a gift from God that blessed me beyond measure.

The thriving

new business of the year, boat barn bagels, is gone.

More importantly, Rachel is gone forever.

And we can either take her story and fall into despair

because these stories are not uncommon.

And they are happening in our own families.

We can despair, or we can say, enough,

enough.

And not just stand and be mad,

but instead decide.

I may not even have the strength to stand.

FDR in a wheelchair, he had, he could not stand, but he stood and gave speeches.

He grabbed onto the podium and he held himself up even when he had, he didn't have the strength to stand, he stood.

That's who we are and who we need to be.

I want you to do two things today.

I want you just to say, Enough is enough.

Not going any further, not doing this.

No.

I want you, if you're a small business person,

no, no more.

If you are

a person that can go and frequent a small business, do it.

And also, just listen.

And if you have even a dollar, one dollar, I want you to go to glennbeck.com, follow the links to the GoFundMe page, and help these businesses.

I ask you to stand with me

to show that even though the government may have abandoned the small businessman and the entrepreneur, we know who they are and how valuable they are, and we will not abandon them.

Back in one minute.

Karen from South Carolina writes in about her dog who was having some eating issues for a while.

She said, I was adding half a can of wet food to my dog, Penny's dry food.

She still would just stop eating it.

Boy, did I go through this.

I thought I would give her rough greens, like to give it a try, seeing how it's all vegetables and good ingredients.

Now I just sprinkle a little bit on Penny's dry food and she licks the bowl clean.

It's amazing.

She said, I'm so glad I tried this product.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

And she puts smiley faces at the end.

Karen, you're welcome.

And I'm glad Penny is eating again.

My dog, Uno, they should get together.

He's kind of lonely.

Anyway, he eats everything in his bowl now, which was impossible before, rough greens.

Rough greens, not a dog food.

It's something that you sprinkle on top of whatever you're feeding your dog, chock full of vitamins and minerals minerals and omega oils and antioxidants.

All the good stuff your dog is supposed to have, and so are you, but rarely gets it.

Me too.

Rough greens, get the jumpstart bag.

Just make sure your dog will eat it at $14.95.

Start the process of getting your dog healthier and much happier.

It's amazing to watch them go through this.

I want you to see your dog thrive again.

Go to rough greens, r-u-f-f-greens.com/slash beck.

10 seconds, station ID.

So I want to introduce you to Catherine Hill.

She was born in Hanford, California in 1979.

So now I feel like

father time.

She grew up an animal lover and an animal advocate.

She rescued animals.

She's like my daughter.

And at the age of 13, she thought, I'm going to become a vegetarian.

And she's still a vegetarian.

She has two kids,

two grandchildren.

Catherine opened up a neighborhood bar called Miss Kitty's Lounge in Clovis, California, because she likes to save cats.

The rent was paid on time every single month until the pandemic struck.

In August of 2019, she was also diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer.

She underwent six months of chemotherapy, 15 rounds of radiation, radical mastectomy.

She was already through a tough journey,

and then COVID.

And she managed through all of this to be able to keep her lounge open.

But then something happened.

She couldn't make her rent, and she tried to work with the landlord, but he wouldn't work with her she's on with us right now hi Catherine

Catherine are you there hi

I just love your attitude because you were one of the people who said look I I think I'm beyond help but you needed your story to get out

tell me tell me what is important for people to hear

I feel like what's important for people to hear is that

there is so many businesses that have fell through the cracks because the government PBP doesn't work for them because we were shut down and we have no employees.

And our biggest expense is our rent.

And if you don't have a good landlord that's going to work with you,

They're the ones that are now putting you out of business, like mine.

Sam Lucido, he refuses to work with us.

And

not only during the

beginning of the pandemic, when there was a moratorium on evictions,

they still were

hitting me with 10-day notices to vacate.

And because there was a moratorium, they couldn't do anything.

So instead of trying to work with us, they hit me with a lawsuit of

coming after us for the remainder of the lease,

attorneys fees, late fees.

Holy cow.

Over $150,000.

Here's the thing that Catherine

wants you to know, that this is happening, but there is

a way to

help.

And you can go to GoFundMe right now.

Just look for gofundme.com

slash Glenn Small Business.

And so you know, we're going to...

We're going to donate some money to Cancer as well in her name.

All right.

Our sponsor, this half hour.

Sorry, I had such little time to talk to Catherine.

Goldline.

Man, I have a big mouth.

Old Chinese curse.

May you live in interesting times.

Well, thanks a lot, China.

Jenna.

Yeah, thanks to you guys.

We are living in really interesting times.

Did you see that Bitcoin is up to $23,000 yesterday?

What's happening?

I want to introduce you to Dave Folbes.

He's the co-owner of Crony Sports Grill.

First location 30 years ago.

He opened, oh, geez, in California.

Everything's going great.

And then COVID hits and all of these restrictions.

Welcome.

Dave, appreciate it.

Thanks for being on the ball.

You bet.

Glenn, thanks for having me on.

I appreciate it.

I feel so bad for you guys in California

who are just...

dying

and Gavin Newsom is completely out of control And you're sitting there.

And I've seen it.

I don't know if you saw the viral video of the guy who was the Greek sandwich shop

where

he's being hassled and being fined every day.

They're coming in.

You're in that same situation, aren't you?

I'm in the exact same situation.

And our Agora Hill store can't afford to have another lockdown or takeout only.

Takeout's not our model.

Every restaurant has a different style of doing things.

And right now, since I'm going against the rule and I'm allowing people to still seat outside at six feet apart while our staff's doing all the proper safety protocols,

I'm still open.

And the health department is coming in every day, and I get a $500 fine.

Every single day they come in and give me a fine for remaining open.

What?

I mean,

I don't understand the people in the government that, A, I can go to Sam's Club or I can go to Target and I can be there with a bunch of people, but I can't go to a restaurant and be served with sterilized plates and forks.

I'm six feet away.

And they just think they can just shut you down.

Well, what are you going to do for money?

Well, exactly.

Well, that's the crazy thing about this, Glenn.

You have to understand, this is not even a left or right issue.

This is a fairness and common sense issue.

It's been proven.

And I think again, yesterday in San Diego, a judge is reviewing this also and may have already overturned it.

But as you said, you can go into a big box store and purchase things that are definitely not essential or the Home Depot and get something unessential.

But my food and my business is essential,

and

it's so frustrating.

And the funny thing is, when the people come in from these business from like the health department or the alcohol beverage control, all very nice people and all people who have a job to do.

But they pretty much come in and say the same thing.

Hey, listen, I respect what you're doing, but I have a job to do.

And

here's your bill.

And they're very and listen, those people have their jobs too, and they have frustrations going on in their life, and they're working very hard.

But that's very scary when they could just have this arbitrary rule, which, by the way, in L.A.

County, a judge already ruled, that this was an overreach when it started in just L.A.

County of the supervisor's authority.

There was no merit to it and no science to it.

You know, I agree with you up to a point.

There comes a time where when you have a job to do and you see the damage that it is doing, not just to the country, not just to the idea of private business and entrepreneurship, but you see the damage it's doing to people

en masse.

You stand up and you quit your job, or you just say, hey, does anybody else feel this way?

Because I think we all need to stand together.

This has got to stop.

And Glenn, you know what?

I'm glad you reminded me of that

and called me out on that.

You're right.

Although they're great people and everything, there has to be a time when you say, this is against my principles.

I am putting this industry and this man and his family out of business.

And I promise you, this is true.

These are desperate times for us.

And the first time, by the way, that there was a lockdown, things were a little different back then, those first two and a half months.

We didn't know much about the virus.

On top of that,

we were going to get this PPP money, which we knew would be a relief.

And because of that, landlords said, don't pay your rent right now.

Credit card companies said, we can put you off.

Our health insurance, our different insurances, even our vendors said, you're going to be getting money.

Don't worry about paying us.

It's not even close to that right now.

That was a nationwide thing before.

And now this is isolated just to California, Southern California, and it is so unfair and so inconsistent and so random.

And everybody sees it.

All my customers, it doesn't matter

if you're leaning one way or the other.

This is about fairness.

And restaurants are being treated unfair for no reason at all.

And some restaurants are booming.

We don't have a drive-through.

I wish we did, but that's not how we're set up.

So, Dave,

Dave, you've lost your license or your permit, so they could throw you in jail.

I'd love to see them try, but

they could throw you in jail at any time.

If you close, if you have to shut this down, you've got $7,000 in just fines and attorney bills.

No, that's just fines.

Oh, just fines?

The attorney bills haven't even shown up yet.

I'm scared scared to get that invoice.

I know that I have been told that

you're struggling to make it to Christmas.

Are you going to lay people off before Christmas?

Are you going to close your doors?

Well,

my partners made a commitment that we're not before Christmas.

We don't want to lay people off.

It's just you don't do that.

And that's almost like the way I'm, my philosophy and how I'm thinking right now before Christmas is the exact way the Health department and other authorities and other government agencies should be looking at us.

We need help right now.

The last thing I need is a fine, but they're fining us.

And it's just not fair.

But I have to tell you, the local law enforcement, they've been great to us.

They'll get their takeout

to show us their support.

And

they're telling us what their limitations are going to be.

And by the way, the support that we are getting from our community is overwhelming.

People know that this is a scam and

we are being totally mistreated and we need help desperately.

Dave, thank you.

Thank you for standing.

Thank you for doing the right thing.

And we're going to try to help you and others as well to keep your doors open.

We're risking our business for our liberty and fairness.

And I appreciate you doing a great job.

And we appreciate any help.

Thank you so very much.

I've got one more story to tell.

We've got to get to it.

Let me tell you about Omaha Steaks first.

Man,

that is a great business.

It started as a small business.

I mean, you know, everything used to run into Kansas City or Omaha, all of the cattle, and they would be butchered there and carved up.

And Omaha Steaks has been in business for over 100 years now.

And they've always been known as the best butcher in America.

They are just great pieces of meat.

They're called spoon cut fillets.

So I want to take you to Boston now.

Joe Crowley is with us.

He is the owner of Breakaway Danvers.

And

this was a really, really, really important

part of the community back in the 1960s.

Very, very legendary, if you will.

But then it became this rundown building over time.

He bought it about five years ago, worked and poured money into it.

I mean, he worked as a small businessman, entrepreneur, fix it up and make it a part of the community.

He said in 2019, December, a year ago, he said all of his rooms were booked.

You know,

the ones, you drive by these places where they've, you know, had big dinners for award ceremonies or for receptions.

You drive by him now and you're like, holy cow, that's the business he's in.

And he

joins me now.

Joe, how are you?

Glenn, I can't thank you enough for advocating for our industry.

There's really nobody out there in our state or coast to coast that's doing that right now.

And what you're doing for us is very important.

And thank you.

What is amazing to me, Joe, is

you said

it was December 19th.

I can remember like it was yesterday, because it almost was.

Everything was going, and you had just you had finally, after five years, hit your stride.

Everything was booked.

You poured more money in technology.

You couldn't wait for 2020.

And then this.

We took over a building that was a combination of kitchen nightmares and bar rescue.

I mean,

I started my first restaurant in 93 as a young kid with $5,000 in my pocket.

And

we took over this property and we created an unbelievable live entertainment scene.

John Caffey and the Beaver Brown band came in a year ago last week.

And for us, we couldn't get local bands five years ago to play.

You know, so these are the type of things that,

you know, it's devastating.

What we created up there was we were raising millions for pediatric cancer and veterans group and youth organizations through the fundraising that we were doing.

And it was one of those things where the rug just completely came out from underneath us right at the point where we had an unbelievable 2019 and we're ready to launch our twenty twenty.

And

since March, it's been an unbelievable, stressful nightmare.

So you had how many employees last year?

At this place, I had about thirty five employees.

Currently, we're one hundred percent laid off.

We closed about three weeks ago indefinitely for the winter.

I heard your last call with Dave on the West Coast, and everything he said was on the money, and I'm on the opposite coast.

The only difference is we had a foot of snow drop on us last night.

We never thought that our state and our federal government, you know, as we navigated the summertime and we were able to go outside and we could have some people singing and at least get people back to work, we said, well, they're going to have something planned for us for the winter.

There's no plan.

And the cry in the Boston area to the state government is, where's your plan?

You knew winter was going to be here.

It's it's New England.

You know, I'm looking out my window right now to a fresh foot of snow.

And a lot of restaurants in the Boston area, they're small.

You know,

the regulations have made it impossible to do business.

And we're losing thousands of restaurants.

What do you think?

I mean,

this is what bothers me so much.

I'm a small businessman myself.

What bothers me so much is I can go to Home Depot.

I can go to these big

places like Target.

Everything is open.

You can go in, blah, blah, blah, as long as you're wearing a mask.

But it's the small businessman who has been forced to close down, can't get the PPP money.

And if it did, it didn't do very much, didn't go very long.

And

you're just out.

And nobody seems to...

care unless it's for a political campaign.

And you know something, Glenn?

Dave, your last speaker hit it on the market.

It's not a left issue.

It's not a right issue.

It's a human issue.

My employees think all different ways.

They think right.

They think left.

You know,

it's such a hot political season.

We never thought

I've been self-employed since I was 23.

I'm 50.

I never felt abandonment from my state and federal government like I do today.

I can't get a call back from a congressman or woman,

a senator, the governor's office.

We can't get a call to start a discussion with them.

And all we're asking for is what is the plan?

And their plan was let the winter come and let these businesses close.

Somebody will pick this up in a year or two, and we'll get our revenue and our sales tax eventually.

There's no concern for the families that are being ruined.

And everyone that I know in the restaurant business in the Boston area is once they're tough.

They're not trust fund babies.

We all came from the streets.

It was a way for us to work our way way up to become a middle class,

to raise families.

It was a way for us to better ourselves and our families.

That's what the restaurant business in Boston and New England is about.

And these are all nobody's sitting there with the handout saying, give me, give me.

We're saying, please give us a plan.

We elected you.

Give us a direction.

You can't let us go into this wintertime.

without anything.

And that's exactly what they've done up in the Boston area.

They've let us go into the wintertime with no plan.

Well, I want you to know, and this is one reason why we're doing this, and I send this message out to all small businesses.

I know you feel abandoned and nobody's paying attention, but people are, and they're aware of it, and we stand with you.

Joe, real quick, because I've got to run.

You had a heart attack.

You actually died in September for five minutes.

How much of this stress was involved in that?

Well, you know something, Glenn, I'm a 50-year-old guy.

I'm in good shape.

I've never had a medical history.

In September, and I'm blessed to be here.

I have a wife.

I have three kids.

I had a massive heart attack on September 2nd, and stress was a major factor

in what I went through.

And, you know, this year has been brutal.

We lost my dad in the spring.

We're being told that we could have 20 people at a service.

We had to navigate that.

Holy cow.

It's been a

Joe.

It is

an honor to speak with you.

Don't give up.
