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 going to tell you the truth.
How do I present this with any 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.
First, let me tell you about RealEstate Agents I Trust.com.
Real Estate Agents I Trust is a free service to you.
It is something that
my brother and I actually started.
And it came out of frustration of not being able to find the right real estate agent.
I don't know about you.
I didn't even know how to find a real estate agent.
You interview them?
No, you just call them and you're like, can you sell a house?
And they're like, yo, of course.
And then they don't sell your house or whatever.
You need somebody who actually has the right track record.
You need to know how to even interview them.
And that's where we come in.
We've done a pre-interview and we've also checked all of the ways that they work with people, their track record.
We talk to former clients, people that they've sold their house with.
I mean, we really do our homework.
And then if you write to us and say, hey, I'm looking for somebody to buy or sell a house, we find the right one in your area and we turn them on to you.
And then you'd interview them and see if they're right.
It's realestate agentsitrust.com.
Free service to you.
Get your whole house sold fast for the most amount of money.
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glen Beck Program.
Hello, America.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
It is Wednesday, and today
is a very, very, very critical show.
Today, we're going to talk to you about the stealing of this election.
And tonight, we have a special, and we need your help, and we need all hands on deck.
We're going to leave it on Google, or I mean, on YouTube.
However, I don't know if it's gonna be suppressed.
I don't know if it's gonna be taken off.
I have no idea.
It's on the blaze tonight, but this is this special is so important.
The president last night for the first time in five years has retweeted something from me and it was about tonight's special.
You need to watch it.
We'll give you all the details and tell you what we can about this.
And we have so much to report on.
We begin in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
So every day, whether it's, you know, while the kids are doing school or they're actually there in person, your kids are getting on the internet.
They're doing it with laptops and tablets and phones that they have with them.
And maybe the most dangerous thing they face is what they're actually learning from school.
You know, Marxism and Black Lives Matter and all that stuff.
But the most dangerous thing that is out there, almost as dangerous as what they're being taught in school, is what's out on the internet, where cyber criminals like to hide out and wait for suspecting prey to walk by.
Cybercrime is growing steadily, not shrinking, and it's important to fight it.

Tonight, Donald Trump's win was a big blow to Silicon Valley elites in 2016.
You know, let's face it, most people here are pretty upset and pretty sad because of the election.
And now, big tech is working overtime to influence the presidential race the way they want.
Facebook, YouTube, Google.
Glenn exposes the tools they're using to manipulate your vote.
Watch digital stormtroopers, how big tech will silence you and steal the election tonight, 9 p.m.
Eastern at Blazetv.com/slash Glenn.
As I said,
this is a very important program tonight.
The president even retweeted the promotion for this.
What did he say exactly?
He said,
do you have it up in front of you?
I don't have it in front of me here.
Let me see if I can find it.
He just said this is going to be the
here I have it.
He said,
the unsolicited ballot scam is their only hope.
This will be the most corrupted election
in history by far.
And he retweeted our promo for the special on big tech tonight.
This is a must-see, and it's not just something that you need to be aware of.
It is something that you need to engage your friends with.
We've got to put a wall around this election.
They have several things that they are doing.
Big tech can sway 15 million votes.
They can move votes by the things we know they've already done, and you will see.
They will, for instance, put out a, hey, don't forget to vote today
to all of the swing states and all of the districts
where the Democrats are heavy, and they will do it to Democratic voters and not Republican voters.
Little things like that change everything, and there's no way to trace them unless you trace trace it in real time.
So we need you to watch this tonight because I really, truly believe, as we talked about yesterday,
we are in deep trouble.
I mean, even a Democratic operative has come out and said there's going to be a civil war after this election.
I hope to God not.
I am telling you, last night
I was laying in bed and I was thinking about what I needed to talk to you about today and and I thought I really need to reach out to those people who are
who are maybe in their house still from COVID and they don't want to go outside
you've got to go to the polls you must go to the polls
it is really truly
vital We are going to be, what's happening in Belarus right now is going to be happening here.
And George Soros and the State Department, their allies, have done this to other countries.
Just happened in Chile because of us, because of George Soros.
It is
really dangerous what's happening.
Now I want to explain what's happening with the mail-in ballots because it's not the post office.
That is a ruse.
Okay, that is to get you to go off track.
It has nothing to do with the post office.
With the exception that they are going to say all these ballots arrived at the post office after the election because of Donald Trump, they weren't postmarked on the day of the election.
You can't allow those ballots to be counted.
Because if you know where you need the votes and you can suddenly produce them after the election, well, then it's you can do anything because all you have to do is produce the votes.
You're not going to produce the votes where you know he's won handily.
You'll find the districts that flip that state where it was really close, and you'll just produce new votes.
That's the corrupt part of it, and that is going to happen, and that has something to do with the post office.
They are laying the groundwork to be able to say the post office didn't deliver.
The post office, they had all these and it didn't make it through the sorting machine in time because of Donald Trump.
It will have nothing to do with truth on the post office.
It'll have everything to do with picking the right places to add more votes
to flip a state.
Imagine what we went through in 2000.
Imagine that happening in four different states.
It's going to happen.
Now,
here are the things that you really need to understand when it comes to the mail-in ballots.
Tonight's show goes much deeper.
We're not even talking about the mail-in ballots.
We've already done that show.
This one is about high-tech.
But let me just finish up with the mail-in ballots because it's critical that you understand this.
Americans expect to have an answer on Election Day.
You are not going to have an answer on Election Day.
Now, we might know,
but they are setting up an absolute disaster because Americans are used to getting the results on Election Night.
Well, because of all of these ballots that they're going to say haven't been counted yet, no network is going to call it for Donald Trump.
And they're going to say, because all the Democrats went out and they voted by mail.
Well, if you voted by mail, you should have voted early.
But that's not what they're going to be saying, and that's not what they're saying.
They're mail them.
You can mail them even the day of, just get it postmarked.
And they're now pushing for the postmark not even to count.
So they're going to count to the very, very end.
And the media is going to come out and say, well, we don't have.
There's so many people that voted by mail.
It's overwhelmed the system.
And it overwhelmed the postal system because we're just still getting them in now.
So that night, they're not going to call the election.
And it's going to look big for the president because a lot of Democrats are voting by mail.
Republicans are not.
So you're going to have, this is the spin they're going to give you.
Well, yes, it looks like he won, and he won in multiple states, and he clearly has the Electoral College, but those can change over the next few days or even the few weeks as we go in and we count these ballots.
So, what they've done is they've taken the 2000 election and taken it out of one district and put it over the entire United States.
And they will only focus on a few states, the ones that will change the Electoral College.
And so,
they will continue to count the votes until they get it counted the way they want it, is my feeling.
But it won't last like that.
Hillary Clinton is already saying no matter what, Joe Biden should never concede.
That's never happened in American history.
We don't do that.
This is what gives us peaceful transitions.
If I will tell you this, if Donald Trump clearly loses,
clearly loses.
on election night, I would say the same thing to him that I would say to Joe Biden.
Give it up, man.
Give it up.
The people have spoken.
I mean, I just saw a poll in New York City.
Half of the people in New York City think the city is on the wrong track.
The other half thinks it's finally on the right track.
Now, I don't know if they mean since COVID or
since
what's it, the de Blasio got in.
I have no idea.
If the people vote for their own destruction, they vote for their own destruction.
And nothing's going to stop it.
But fraud can't be tolerated.
And you are being set up right now to expect an answer on Election Day when they are already saying it's going to drag out for days, even weeks.
We may not even know until January.
That's what the left and the Democrats are saying right now.
That's going to require incredible restraint.
Because here's what they're going to do.
They're going to argue over every single ballot.
Now,
if you have
these ballots in these
democratic cities and democratically controlled states, can you trust it?
And here's why I say this.
This is so critical.
And let me ask you if you've even heard this story yet.
This came out August 26th.
As swing state Michigan approaches an election in which it could play a pivotal role, remember, Michigan,
new data from its August 4th primary reveals that in 72% of Detroit's election precincts, recorded ballots counts for absentee voters
did not match the number of ballots actually cast.
So,
wait, there were more ballots than people.
The people in Michigan deserve to know what their elections uh that their elections are being conducted fairly and competently, but today's news shows that Wayne County and the city of Detroit can't conduct an election to even the most basic standards.
This is according to Laura Cox,
the Michigan Republican Party.
The board of canvassers in Wayne County, which includes Detroit, said the mess involves the ballots that were too tangled to ever unsnarl.
Quote, it is so inaccurate that we cannot even attempt to make it right.
Why are we even talking about mail-in ballots?
That's what I say
when I'm making IKEA furniture.
Yeah.
And I get to that point where it's like, there's just this, I don't know, it looks like a spider.
Throw it out at this point.
Throw it out.
Throw it out.
Throw it out.
That's exactly right.
It is the IKEA election.
And there's going to be screws left over in the end.
And you're like, I don't even know what that one was for.
It is so inaccurate that we can't even attempt to make it right.
That's the chairwoman of the board of canvassers.
Those are the people that are in charge of the election.
Okay.
Based on the inaccuracies that we saw during the canvas, something has to happen.
We can't go into November with what occurred during the primary.
See, the only state that really has done this is Washington.
Washington state has been doing this now for about 10 years, but now we have, in the most critical election of our lifetime,
quite honestly, the most critical election in the lifetime of the Republic.
We have this going on,
and it is intentional.
So
they have the setup with the post office to get an extension for the ballots that will need to come in.
They will produce them.
You can guarantee that.
We know that fraud is already a part of it, but most importantly,
20% of mail-in ballots are rejected.
This is on the average, 20% of mail-in ballots are rejected.
And that's because they can't verify the signature, somebody didn't check the box right, et cetera, et cetera.
So you have a 20% error rate.
Who wants to put that 20% error rate into full-fledged practice on states that have never done it before?
Well, the states that are doing it, it's a 20% error rate.
So they have to kick out 20% of the ballots, which allows the Democrats to then say,
these people are disenfranchising votes.
They're throwing away 20% of the people who voted.
Disenfranchisement.
And for those who don't know all of the facts in advance,
you're going to believe that.
The left is going to gobble that up.
The media will make that into a big deal.
It's already 20% on average.
You can't kick out 20% without causing riots in the streets.
That's what's coming.
Now that's if there isn't a big spread.
But how can there be a big spread when the Democrats have one other tool in their toolbox?
And it is the most important tool to win in America today.
I'll tell you about that in 60 seconds and tonight.

So, tonight's special is Digital Stormtroopers, how big tech will silence you and steal the election.
The biggest threat to 2020 is not Russia.
It's not the post office, it is Silicon Valley.
Silicon Valley is.
I am honestly, now that the president, I kind of wish the president would have retweeted the promo for tonight's show, kind of, only because now it is clearly on big tech's radar.
And whether this show makes it on the air, stays on the air when we're talking about YouTube, stays on YouTube, or is just demonetized, is marked a fraud,
or suppressed.
I can guarantee you,
one or some of these are going to happen, a combination of them.
Because of what we're going to present tonight, Silicon Valley,
we have, you know, we've seen through leaked video how horrified the Google execs were over Donald Trump's win.
And if you remember, they said, we can't let this happen again.
Well,
they're not going to let it happen again if they have anything to do with it.
Big tech can shift 15 million votes and I'm going to show you how it happens.
I'm going to show you with real examples, real footage of big tech altering and how they can alter people and move 15 million people.
We will reveal all of the tools and the techniques that they use to manipulate the average American user.

So Patricia from Ohio has a fun situation with her dog now that she didn't have before.
Ever since she started giving her dog rough greens, up until recently,
her dog was not a big eater.
That is exactly what I went through.
He barely would touch his food.
In fact, Patricia, I know your pain.
The vet
kept yelling at us.
You got to feed him more.
You got to feed him more.
Like, you can't get him to eat.
Now it's a different story with my dog and Patricia's dog.
She says, quote, my dog loves the rough greens.
He even whines when I don't put it into his food now.
I had the same exact experience with my dog, Glenn, as you did.
Rough greens, not a dog food.
It's a supplement that you put on your dog's food, and it contains all the nutrients that your dog needs, which gets cooked out of all of the dog food.
It has to be able to sit on the shelf for two years.
So they take all the good stuff out.
Probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, omega oils, just some of the things your dog needs that are in Rough Greens.
Give it to your dog now.

Glad you're here.
Pat Gray is joining us from Pat Gray Unleashed, a podcast you can get wherever you get your podcast, or you can watch it live on Blaze TV and Blaze Radio right before this program comes on.
Welcome to the program, Pat.
Thank you, Glenn.
And that's true.
They're calling it the best podcast that's ever been made.
They're calling it
that.
Donald Trump, your new PR.
Yes.
Yeah.
It's going to give me some facts.
That's what they're saying.
That's what they're saying.
That is amazing.
That's amazing.
I don't know if you saw this, but
a new council got together,
called together in Washington, D.C.,
to do a study on which monuments should be removed, de-emphasized, destroyed, or just reframed.
And the top two I like are
the Washington Monument.
Destroyed or removed
or relocated.
Relocated.
All right.
And the Jefferson Memorial.
And you have a problem with that?
Yeah, something along the lines of over my dead body.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, that is something,
honestly, I don't like the way that the country has become, where Washington, D.C.
has just become this corporate state.
You know what I mean?
I lived in Washington, D.C.
in the 80s when it, you know, when it was just still recovering from FDR,
but it wasn't like it is now.
Now it's just all the big businesses, everybody has their headquarters there because they need to do business in Washington, which is sickening.
But I will tell you, if you take down, if you try to take down the Washington Memorial, you take down, and this is saying something, I hate Andrew Jackson.
I hate him.
I think he is the guy.
If you go back in history, I think he's the guy that actually ended the Republic as our founders understood it.
He's the first one to put the nails in the coffin and turn us away from who we were at the founding.
Would you agree with that?
I hate that guy.
Hate him.
But you try to take his statue down in Washington, D.C.
I'm thinking about getting on a plane and going and standing around it.
Probably would do it.
You start to mess with Benjamin Franklin, the two statues of Benjamin Franklin they want to take down.
Benjamin Franklin.
Well, he was a racist.
He was not racist.
He was a racist.
He was an abolitionist.
No.
An outspoken abolitionist.
Against his own business interests.
Yeah.
He was humiliated at the end of his life by the southern Democrats because they were saying, oh, look, now he's for abolition.
I mean, he's just, he's gone crazy.
It's sad to see him decline so fast.
They made him into a guy who is a bumbling idiot when he wasn't.
Which party was that again?
The Democrats.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, the Democrats, yeah.
The Defenders of Truth and Justice.
Yes, the Bringers of Light.
Oh, yeah.
The Bringers of Light.
I don't know about you, but that is amazing.
That's a fight.
That's a fight.
You touched the Washington Memorial.
That's a fight.
Do you see that Antifa went in and took down, and I know this isn't the same thing, but it shows how deeply they're going into culture.
They
defaced
Graceland.
and
spray painted Antifa and BLM messages on Graceland.
If you think any of our culture is going to survive this, you're mistaken.
They will burn down everything.
They will erase everything.
Now you've got too far, man.
You're talking about the king of nanor sandwiches.
Well,
the king of nana sandwiches.
He's going away.
He's going away.
I mean, they, if you're not going to be able to do it.
It's amazing
what they're trying to do because all of it has to go, right?
It's not just the Confederate soldier statues.
Oh, it's America.
It's America itself.
And that's why
the Confederate soldiers are not even as important as the founders.
They don't care about the Confederate soldiers half as much as they do about the founders.
And they don't care that one of the leaders of the abolitionist movement as our founders was Ben Franklin.
They're not holding him up as a hero because they have to erase all of it.
All of it.
Your culture is
kind of going away slowly.
America as we know it will be gone in four years.
Gone in four years.
Which is their goal.
And if you don't believe it, listen to the protesters, the rioters in Oakland the other night.
Oh, yeah.
Death to chanting death to America.
Who needs Iran when you've got these people trying to destroy our country from within?
And by the way, did you see that Wheeler finally, he's getting, he's getting, they love him.
They love him.
The mayor of Portland, Oregon, love, love, love, love, love, love him.
They have, they have disrupted his, I guess he lives in a condo.
They've disrupted his condo.
He's now moving out of them.
He's trying to set it on fire.
Yeah, trying to set it on fire.
It is, it's really, really, really bad.
He's still backing them.
He's still backing them.
He's saying they can't, you know, protest around his house.
It's kind of like Nancy Pelosi.
You can't get your hair done, but I can.
Yeah.
And Mayor Lightfoot in Chicago doing the same thing.
I will not apologize for protecting my house and my wife and children.
Well, okay, but what about everybody else's house and wives and husbands and children?
She doesn't give a rat's anus about any of them.
She just protects her own.
There's reports that up to 147 cops are guarding her home every night.
I mean, in a time where you've got kind of a crunch for police, the hypocrisy is.
Can you imagine being a cop?
Can you imagine being a cop and guarding that?
You'd be like, I mean, this is why our cops are known as heroes
because they guard people they vehemently disagree with.
Yeah, you think in this one, too, they're not allowing the police to actually do the job they want to do, right?
So they're pulling them out of the danger areas and then, you know, assigning them to the mayor's house in all of these cities it's incredible it's incredible that people don't get more pissed off about it and it's incredible that the media is just going along with it yeah this is okay that's understandable she needs protection she's the mayor oh
can you imagine can you imagine what it's going to be like because remember how the media was under barack obama they just they just they didn't care the media already is trying to make if it wasn't for donald trump i wonder if we would even know the truth about the story.
No, I shouldn't say this.
If it wasn't for the Blaze, but the Blaze is protected, quite honestly, your freedom of speech to say something that the media doesn't like is being protected by this administration.
That's how close we are to the end of the First Amendment.
If it's not for him standing in the way, blocking, I'm telling you, we lose our voice.
You wouldn't know the truth of the Reichstag fire that happened with the shooting in Portland.
You wouldn't know it.
You wouldn't know what was true in Kenosha because we wouldn't have been there.
And they would have spun it as right-wing, far-right,
white supremacists coming in.
And if you don't think that will close down every single group that you might be in, you might have ever been associated with, you're on a watch list, dude.
You're on a watch list.
It's terrifying.
Because they've kind of captured the hearts and minds of the youth, too, which is really troubling to me.
When I see all of these, you know, collegiate football teams, including BYU's football team,
it is shameful.
Talking about how they support these groups like BLM.
It's shameful what is going on.
Shameful that the church needs to get rid of BYU.
If BYU can't hold to the standards of the church, then the church should defund it and get rid of it.
Well, I don't think they understand.
I don't think they've looked into it.
I don't think they're paying attention to, you know, they hear one side on Facebook or CNN or wherever, and they don't get the full story.
And so they buy into the fact that Black Lives Matter is about Black Lives Matter.
Deseret News is doing the same thing.
Same thing.
Same thing.
Deseret News.
I mean, it's painted.
Deseret News owned by the church.
I'm sorry to get all really specific here, but people in Salt Lake, you need to know this.
Wake up.
Deseret News is now painting Mike Lee as an extremist.
Mike Lee is the furthest from extreme that I've ever seen.
They are making excuses for BLM.
They're making excuses.
They are marching to the same tune.
And I don't know what's happening, but the church needs to divest and get away.
Get away from it.
Because the infection is there in BYU,
in the universities, and it's in the press.
Get away from it.
Here's how deep it goes.
I got this
sent to us by a listener in Kentucky, I think.
Fayette County Public Schools,
Virtual Learning Academy.
This is a fifth-grade assignment where they had to study what the NBA is doing.
Okay, here's the audio of this.
Hey, ladies, if you look here, this is his
assignment.
This is the Fayette County Public Schools.
You go over here and you see the news Ella, NBA boycott.
Let's click on it.
Read this attached article.
Wow.
What is the relationship between Jacob Blake and Breonna Taylor?
Yeah, and they don't give the context of that.
Here's the article.
NBA protests over Black Lives Matter.
Now.
Now.
And then you get the one-sided viewpoint of Black Lives Matter.
Scroll down.
And here's the questions.
So please.
And what are the questions?
If anybody tells you this is fake,
this is not fake.
What is the race?
Go ahead.
Bayette County Public Schools.
Okay.
Go ahead, stop.
In small town, fifth grade assignment.
So just to show it's not just universities.
What's the relationship between Jacob Blake and Breonna Taylor?
A, both were victims of police violence, sparking protests against racial injustice.
Or B, one supports the NBA player's decision to boycott, the other doesn't.
Both were involved in the decision to boycott the NBA, blah, blah, blah.
So obviously, you know, they were both victims of police violence.
Unbelievable.
Without explaining what exactly happened in the
Jacob Blake this time.
This is working.
This is
working.
This is just what social media is doing, is working.
The conversation in my home, we talk about this stuff all the time in my home.
I mean, I'm dad.
Imagine I'm talking about it in my home.
And because of social media, my kids will go, but dad, that's not what happened.
You're going to believe some friend of yours that sent a story on Facebook over something that I do, and you've grown to love and trust me?
Really?
Scary.
It's terrifying.
It's terrifying.
You, parents, Parents, you do not have a chance.
If you aren't at your school, watch last week's Wednesday special.
Just go to Glenn TV at Blaze TV.
Watch last week's Wednesday night special.
If you see that, it is all about the schools.
I'm going on a couple of day vacation to celebrate my wife's birthday.
I'm coming back next Monday.
On Wednesday of next week, we have part two of what they're putting into our schools.
And this is horrifying.
And if you are not at your school, if you are not looking over every single thing that is coming from the school, you are going to lose your kids.
That is not hyperbole.
I truly believe there is a chance that we are on the edge of the times that have been foretold since the beginning of time.
I believe we're on the precipice of that.
If that's true,
you're going to lose your children.
Your children will turn against you.
You will lose them to darkness.
You must read what is happening.
Trust yourself.
Pray like you've never prayed before.
And trust the Spirit to tell you what to do.
Everyone has a right to their own personal revelation.
No one else can have revelation for you, but you.
You and your family, you get revelation for.
You can't tell me that you get revelation for me and my family.
But I know you get revelation for you and your family.
And now is more important than ever.
You and your children are all children of God, and he does not want to lose you.
If you sincerely come to him and say, help me, understand, help me.
If you do your own homework and then bring it back to him and say, is this true?
Is this not true?
It's the only light that you can trust.
Don't trust me.
Don't trust anyone.
Do your own homework and trust only in him.
These are the times where you must be so one with the spirit.
If it says, stop, turn around, pull your kids out do this you have to be so in step that you do it immediately or the consequences will be severe

You know those movies where people go into a coma and then they come out of the coma and they look like 10 years have passed and they're like, what happened?
And they've never seen a phone before?
That's kind of what Dave Rubin does every year.
He goes into a self-induced media coma and he won't watch or listen to anything.
He won't read anything.
No social media, no news, nothing.
And he goes and to just refresh for a month every year.
But like those old movies where it took 10 years for things to change, things are changing rapidly.
And the last couple of years, I think he's been more and more surprised on, wait, wait, really?
That just happened?
He just got out of his self-induced coma.
We have him on next.
We have a great announcement with Dave Rubin to make, but also we want to get his take from freshly hearing about the DNC news, about the shootings and the riots and everything else.
He just heard about it.
A fresh take from Dave Rubin in 60 seconds.

Dave Rubin,
author of the book Don't Burn This Book,
the host of the Rubin Report on YouTube, and you can find him at blazetv.com slash Dave.
Dave Rubin, welcome to the program.
Glenn, it is good to be with you.
Apparently, the world is still spinning.
Earth is still here.
But yes, I did go into a self-imposed coma.
So, and I'm just getting back, man.
So, take it slow.
Take it easy on me, would you?
So, Dave, tell me this.
Are you
more surprised last year because the world wasn't on fire as much as it is right now?
And so when things happened, you were like, wait, what?
But when you went into your self-imposed coma,
you knew the world was crazy as hell.
So what were the things that you, did you still have the, no way that can't be possible?
Did you have any of those?
You know, it's funny because you were the one who brought me back last year when I did the month off.
And then you sat down down with me for two hours and enlightened me on all things that I missed.
And one of the really funny things that you did was you made up some stuff and then contrasted it with true things that happened and I had to guess which was true.
And you got it wrong several times.
You were like, that can't be true.
So I'm going to pick this one.
Nope, Dave, that one's true.
Yeah, well, this year, look, it looks like we got peace in the Middle East.
I did not expect that to happen in August.
You know, there's some strange things out there.
I mean, look, this is the fourth year that I've done the August off-the-grid thing, and I do no news, and I try to stay away from devices and all of that stuff.
And I do it more than anything else to just get a little extra perspective on all of the issues that, you know, guys like us spend our lives talking about and that are the things that everyone is consumed with right now.
I mean, what is political has now become everything, everywhere in society.
And one of the problems, and we've talked about this many times, is that because of the nature nature of the news cycle and really Twitter more than anything else how it's just driving this endless sort of craziness you all we're all doing all day long is reacting to everything and by taking a little time off I think I'm able to give myself a fresher perspective on some of this stuff.
But to directly answer your question, I mean, I knew that this year was going to be particularly crazy because, of course, we had the conventions,
you know, Biden was going to pick his VP, the riots, racism, all of these things.
And sadly, as far as I can tell so far, none of it got better.
No, none of it got better.
What was the thing you were most surprised?
Or you had the biggest...
Give me some perspective on something big that happened that
you've been thinking about now in the last 24 hours.
Well, without question.
I mean, this deal that was signed between Israel and the United Arab Emirates is beyond historic.
And if I'm reading the stories correctly this morning, you know, I'm just trying to catch up on everything.
It sounds like like there could be about four more Arab countries, four to five maybe, more Arab countries that are about to sign peace deals.
And if we lived in a sane society, everyone, regardless of your political affiliation, your religion, your belief system, would be saying this is the most monumental, absolutely staggering, incredible event that has happened in terms of Middle East politics in the last three decades.
They say it.
And yet from what I can tell, well, Trump had something to do with it, so this is something negative.
Yeah, no, they didn't.
They barely, they said,
I actually heard people say this happened in spite of Trump.
You know, this was something really that was in the works for a long time.
Really?
Was it?
But anyway,
they say, I was just reading today that they think the BDS movement, the boycott, divestment, and
what's the other one?
Yeah, sanctions.
They say that's over now.
They say that that movement has been destroyed by this.
That in and of itself is huge.
Absolutely incredible.
And, you know, again, because I'm just catching up on all the news stories when I Googled it this morning, you're right.
The framing of this is somehow this is despite Trump or in spite of Trump or has nothing to do with Trump.
And without making everything about Trump, because again, I'm just getting back on the grid here and I got to ease my way into this whole thing.
It's like this is, I thought Middle East peace is what everybody wanted.
I thought it doesn't matter if you're on the right or on the left, you're a republican you're a democrat liberal conservative doesn't matter we all want peace don't we all want peace in the middle
yet somehow no no this is a big trick and and that just goes to why everything is so screwy man you have to be for something not just against people and that's one of the reasons why i'm going to do a new show with the blaze because that's what i want to get to so well might as well announce it now go ahead Yeah, well, starting today in about three hours or so, I've been up since about 3 a.m.
today.
I am going to be doing a new show on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays that we are going to simulcast on my YouTube channel, which is youtube.com slash RubinReport, as well as stream on The Blaze.
And it's going to be a 24-minute, in effect, a half-hour show with The Blaze.
You guys,
just like everything we've done together for the last year and a half or so, I make all the decisions.
You're not my boss.
I'm not your boss.
We're just going to be able to do that.
Do we really have to say this anymore?
Do people even, do people still say that?
I mean, it's so crazy.
So crazy.
I'm sorry, Glenn, you don't control me.
God, that's so crazy.
I mean, I mean, you know me, Dave.
Do I seem like a controlling guy that I want to control everybody's show?
Have I ever struck you that way?
I don't control you, Dave Rubin.
That's so stupid.
But what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to wake up in the morning.
I'm going to have my cup of coffee and I am going to talk to my producer.
We're going to put together, I'm only going to try to hit probably two to three stories a a day.
You know, one of the problems is we are obsessed with every little small thing that happens in the world of politics.
And that, it's sort of what we were talking about before.
That's what's keeping everybody crazy.
And I actually think, and one of the reasons I wanted to work with the Blaze is you guys have, or I should say we now, have a bunch of hosts that I think give a really nice perspective about this stuff without making everyone hysterical.
But that really is going to be the thrust that I'm going to go for.
I'm going to wake up, I'm going to go, what's going on in the world?
And
how do we pilfer a little bit of sanity out of it?
Because I want people to care about the news, care about current events, care about what's happening, but not be obsessed or even more disturbingly, not be depressed by it.
And I think
if we can do a little more of that, then we can start setting some of this stuff right.
So give me the thing to not be depressed about.
Oh, man.
Go ahead, off the top of your head, Dave.
I told you to ease me in.
Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right.
So maybe you'll be a little depressed on today's show, but not fully depressed.
The thing to not be depressed by, I think, is hard to see, but I really do believe it's happening.
And as you know, I'm here in California.
I'm in L.A., so it's really tough when you're in California.
But I think underneath the headlines, underneath the riots, underneath racism, underneath the pandemic and all of that, I truly believe that there is an awakening happening happening across the country.
I think people are waking up to the nonsense of the media.
I think people are waking up to the nonsense of just factory settings that somehow left is good and right is bad.
And you don't see that in the polls.
You don't see that on CNN.
But I think, I actually think you will see it when it comes to the election.
And I think just look walking around LA here when people can recognize me, which is a little tougher these days because of the mask.
But usually now when people come up to me, they say, hey, Dave, you know, I saw Ion Fox or I saw Ayan Beck, and they're happy that they saw me.
And they don't want people to know it because it's still LA and you can't have people know when you watch scary Glenn Beck or Scary Dave Rubin.
But if it's starting to bubble up here, that means it's really happening elsewhere.
And that's not the type of stuff that the mainstream media can cover because it's antithetical to everything else that they're pushing.
But I think a wake-up is happening and I'm going to do the best I can to be as big a part of it as possible.
So I would really like to hear from you, Dave, at some point when you get your feet really back into the waters of stuff, that I'd like to hear what do you think people on the left
know?
You know, what
we are
so separate in our news streams now that there's two versions of America and Donald Trump and the protests and everything else.
And for the life of me, I cannot understand how people, and I don't think they do.
I think the regular American that's not playing a political game, not involved in politics or in media or anything else, I think those people are looking at it.
Those Democrats that, you know, are just not the game players.
They're looking at the riots and they're like,
you know, this has been going on for a while.
My own party seems to be okay with it and I'm not okay with it.
And I just can't vote for people who are okay with this.
The media in the last week and a half has been turning this now around on Trump and blaming all these riots on Trump and saying that they're now against these riots.
It's the most incredible
Reichstag kind of lie I've ever seen.
And I'd like to know if regular people who don't pay attention that much, if they buy into that.
Yeah, it's a great question, ma'am, because it's hard to tell, right?
It's really hard to tell because everything now, whether it's the NBA, sports world, or anything else, going to a salon is now political.
So it's hard to tell what regular folks are thinking about things.
And again, that's why when I debut this show just in a couple hours, I am not going to try to bludgeon people over the head with just the day-to-day political stuff because I think there's a much bigger philosophical and moral and cultural battle that we're fighting.
But I would say this, you know, the average person who's not political, which is, by the way, most people, the average person who just, you know, wants to hopefully have a job and have a family and have a house and a car and a dog,
if their choice in November is, okay, we can either burn down the entire system, and I mean that literally, we're going to burn down buildings and we're going to tear down monuments and everything else, or they can potentially vote for a guy that maybe they were uncomfortable with or they don't like the way he tweets or something like that.
I guarantee you, all of those people,
which is a huge chunk of independent sort of middle-of-the-road people, they're all going to break towards law and order and towards civilization and towards some semblance of an America that we all love.
I mean, to try to imagine it the other way, it's pretty hard to imagine a sort of middle-of-the-road person going, all right, I'm going to, I've been thinking about it and I'm not really political.
I don't really think about all the issues, but I'm just going to throw everything in.
I'm going to just end the revolution.
I'm going to go down with the people that are burning everything.
I just don't sense people will break that way.
I think they're all going to break the other way.
Okay, we're back with Dave Rubin here in just a second.

We have Dave Rubin on with us.
Dave from the Rubin Report is announcing today
that he's got a new show beginning on Blaze TV that will happen happen Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
We're thrilled to have him as one of our partners here at Blaze TV.
And Dave, you and I have talked many times about
voices going away and that we all have to pack each other up and
we all have to circle the wagons here.
We're all not maybe on the same page, but we are reading the same book.
And
we really need to stick together.
As Franklin said, we need to hang together or we will certainly hang separately.
Yeah.
Well, listen, man, there is a war on reality.
And when you talked a moment ago about sort of the two worlds that exist, because if you listen to lefty media, you're going to believe one thing.
And if you exclusively listen to conservative media, you're going to believe something else.
Well, reality doesn't exist solely in one of those two worlds.
Reality exists, period.
And we have to figure out a way to bridge some of this stuff.
And, you know, it's funny in your intro when you were saying that I was in this self-induced coma.
I know you're a big sci-fi guy too.
And one of the movies that I watched in the break was Interstellar.
And you may remember Interstellar.
Remember when Matt Damon, he's one of the scientists on one of the planets that they're going to and he has to put himself in that cryo sleep.
Yes.
And they wake him up and they wake him up and he bursts.
forth and he sees Matthew McConaughey, he sees another human and just starts hysterically crying because he was so alone for so long.
And I sort of had the reverse thing because when I woke up out of this thing,
I was crying out of, oh my God, it's all still happening.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's all still here.
Nothing's stopping.
I know.
I have to tell you, Dave, the one thing you missed that you should go back and really try to watch in its entirety
is the Republican National Convention.
I've never said those words before.
I didn't want to watch the convention.
I hate those conventions.
But this was different.
Not the coverage on mainstream media, but the raw coverage.
I watched it on C-SPAN.
Dave,
it was not,
there was no,
you know, token anything.
And there were
openly gay people, there were black people, there were Democrats.
It looked like America.
It really did.
And
no one was beating their chest and saying,
you know,
you know what this party's going to do is they're going to make it easier for blacks.
So if you're black, vote.
It wasn't like that.
It was just,
it was cool.
You know what I mean?
It was like all these people who were completely different and they were all cool with each other.
It was amazing.
Glenn, you know what's cool?
Equal rights.
I know.
And that...
That's actually cool.
Equality is cool.
One of the things that I did during the break, I watched this documentary on Frank Sinatra.
You may have seen this on Netflix.
It's just a two-part or two hours each.
And, you know, Sinatra, I forgot about this, even though I'm a big fan of his music.
But, you know, Sinatra has a similar political evolution as me.
You know, I did it decades later, so I'm not jumping the gun on Sinatra.
But, you know, Sinatra was a lifelong Democrat.
He was a JFK guy, very good friends with JFK.
He fundraised for Democrats for many, many years.
And then what happened when Ronald Reagan was running for governor?
He became a California Republican.
And I don't think people care about identity politics.
I think people care about equality.
Nobody cares about your sexuality or your skin color.
We're Americans, man.
That's it.
Yep.
Dave Rubin, thank you so much.
Good to see you.
Can't wait to watch today.
Tuesday, Wednesdays, Thursdays.
You'll find him on his YouTube channel and on Blaze TV new show.
You don't want to miss it with Dave Rubin.
Back in just a second.
Thanks, Dave.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
So Paul has lived in Minnesota his whole life, I think.
He's, I mean, why would you move to Minnesota?
You know what I mean?
I mean, I can't freaking cold there, man.
If you're there, I get it.
You stay there your whole life, maybe.
But if you're someplace else, you don't just like, hey, you know what I want to do?
I want to be freezing all the time.
Anyway, Paul lives in Minnesota, and the things he loves to do with his time more than anything else is play on his local softball team.
So there's about four days a year I think he can do that.
He's been playing it for years, and he's really pretty good.
A while back, he started to
think that he was done for good because he really was having a hard time running the bases
because of his knees.
They started to swell up, et cetera, et cetera.
But Paul had heard about Relief Factor on this program.
Thank you, Paul, and decided to give it a try.
You know the rest of the story.
Within a few weeks, Paul's knees started to feel better.
Within a month or so, he was out back doing what he does best.
Relief Factor, not a drug, developed by doctors.
70% of the people who try it go on to order more because it works.
The only thing you have to lose is your pain.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
We're glad that Nancy Pelosi has her hair done.
I mean, you wouldn't want to go into your freezer with that kind of ice cream not looking your best.
You know what I mean?
Are you saying that she lives in some sort of frozen chamber?
Because I would agree with that are you just saying that you know she has a lot of Jenny's ice cream no she has a lot of Jenny's ice cream and quite honestly the freezer of the stars
I mean
you know
that's like honestly
I'm not hurting
but even that is like that's a that's a freezer and refrigerator kitchen kind of thing that I even I aspire to and go like wow that's a movie set yeah we re we recreated it for students America when it when it happened and I went to Whole Foods to buy all the Jenny's ice cream.
Jenny's ice cream is pretty freaking good.
Yeah.
It was something like $9 a pint.
So I had to buy like $300 of ice cream.
Well, I should say, you know, I expense it, so you pay for it.
Wait, but yeah, but I got a lot of really good ice cream for a long time.
Just a second.
It was really good.
No, it was really good.
Yeah, thank you for that.
Look,
the best thing about Nancy Pelosi, the best thing is her taste in ice cream.
It is.
Literally everything else is terrible.
I mean, people are bashing her about the ice cream stuff.
I fully support her ice cream purchases.
Yeah, now, so she went out, you know, in between the, you know, asking the help.
I'm sure she didn't even have to ask the help to make sure that they have enough ice cream.
But she went out and she got her hair done inside a salon without...
wearing a mask in a salon that has been closed by California law.
And she said, well, she didn't, she just didn't know the rules.
She didn't know.
She didn't know.
The assistant, her assistant texted the hairdresser
and said, hey, we're going to come in.
So they had to text the owner who had to specially open, especially, you know, specially open up the salon because it was closed.
So the owner was just like, you're closing down my business for all this time and you want me to serve Nancy Pelosi?
She got pissed.
She should.
And I understand.
So she actually pulled the footage and
she's admitting she's the one that leaked it, basically, to the media.
Good for her.
It's not even a leak when you just tell people.
Good for her.
Good for her.
She said, I'm at the end of my money.
She's like, my business that I have worked so hard to put out,
she said,
I got the PPP loan.
Most people didn't.
And she said, and I'm at the end of that, and there's no end in sight.
I'm going out of business.
So is everybody else.
And she has the gall to come in without a mask.
Now, Nancy Pelosi said, her spokesperson said, no, she came in with a mask.
We have you on videotape without the mask.
I think she's trying to say that she came in with a mask and then took it off.
I've seen the videotape of her walking through the front door.
And she's saying she doesn't have a mask on then.
Because like, you know, look, we are, we, we're open here in Texas mostly.
Most businesses are open here, exception of bars and large gatherings, basically.
And so, you know, we've been able to get our hair cut now for a few months.
But when I wear, look, you wear a mask.
I know where I go, they have a mask policy, so you wear the mask, and you can get your hair cut with a mask on.
It's fine if you have a haircut policy and you want to wear a mask.
You want to wear a mask in any place.
If you come to the Blaze and we say you have to wear a mask, right now, we're not accepting any visitors.
We're doing everything remote.
So we don't have anybody who's not working here coming into the building.
Fine.
That's our choice.
That's our choice.
The government's not telling us to do that.
It's the government mandates that are the problem.
That's the problem.
Because, as always, what happens?
People like Nancy Pelosi, you know, one of the people, they'll get it done.
You know, they'll just do it.
Yeah, they don't care.
They're more important than you are.
When important people in their life die, they get to go to the funerals.
Correct.
You, it doesn't matter.
So what?
Your spouse of how many years is dead?
So what?
Who cares?
It doesn't matter to them at all.
So what?
Yeah.
You have to understand the collective is more important, except when it's them.
Then they get to do whatever the hell they want.
All right.
Let me address something here.
I want to talk to Catholics right now.
What is happening in all of our churches, but this one is about the Catholic Church, is terrifying.
And if you are a Catholic that wants to save Catholicism as you know it,
then you need to pay attention right now and you must get active.
Everything is under attack.
Friend of mine wrote to me over the weekend, attended a mass at a Catholic church in New York City.
He actually, I mean, this is how much of a Catholic he is.
He went to church on a date.
His wife has died years ago, and he started to date.
And so now he took her to church.
Okay, that's a devout Catholic for you.
And they wanted to go to church on this date to worship God, blah, blah, blah.
They went online.
I guess now you have to make reservations to attend Mass.
But they put on their best church clothes and they were ready to go to church.
What they experienced, they said they have never seen.
It goes beyond the history and teachings of the Catholic Church.
And I want to read the letter that he sent to me.
Glenn, as somebody who has been a devout Catholic all my life, I truly believe the Catholic Church is on the precipice of being attacked and falling from within.
I am writing to you because I deeply love my faith.
I was raised Catholic as a young boy by my family and chose to remain Catholic once I reached adulthood.
I love everything about being Catholic.
I love our history, the traditions, the structure of the Mass, the holy days of obligation, the church doctrine, the underpinnings of our faith, which is to know, love, and serve God.
The highlight of my week is when I walk through the doors of my local parish every Sunday with my boys to leave the madness of the outside world behind and find the inner peace and become grounded in the teachings of the Word of God as read from the Bible.
But what I witnessed this last weekend in the church was anything but that.
I fear too many in the church have fallen dead asleep and stand now silent as propaganda that has no place within the church or the mass has been ushered in by liturgical ministers who have started spreading social and political narratives from the pulpit.
This is great evil and there is great evil within the church.
Satan is masterful in his disguises and deceitful in revealing his true intent.
That evil evil is growing and seeks to destroy the very church that we as Catholics believe was founded by Jesus Christ himself and come to rely on in week in, week out.
To my great dismay and shock, what I experienced this past weekend in a Catholic Mass did not come from God or the Bible,
not anywhere whatsoever.
This is what we experienced when we walked into Mass.
Upon walking into the church of St.
Francis, located in New York City, Sunday morning, the very first thing this couple noticed was a large black and white photo of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and others placed off to the right of the altar under the statue of Jesus.
Then, before the closing prayer to the end of the Mass, the entire congregation was invited to stand and join in the prayer for racial justice.
We have the video of this.
Watch.
I now invite you to stand and join in us in the prayer for racial justice
responding yes to each of the following statements.
Do you support racial justice, equity, and compassion
in human relations?
Yes.
Do you affirm that white privilege is unfair and harmful to those who have it and to those who do not?
Yes.
Do you affirm that white privilege and the culture of white supremacy must be dismantled wherever it is present?
Yes.
Do you support racial equity, justice, and liberation for everyone?
He says it gets even better because the Church of St.
Francis, the website provides links to racial justice resources that includes articles, books, and other media addressing white privilege, systematic racism, defunding the police,
and support for Black Lives Matter.
You cannot be Catholic and support Black Lives Matter.
They want to disrupt the traditional nuclear family.
The Church of St.
Francis Xavier also runs St.
Francis High School, so God only knows what's being taught inside the walls of this school as it reopens.
This past weekend, the gospel reading in the Catholic churches around the world was from Matthew 16.
In it, Jesus is having a conversation with his disciples.
At one point, he turns to Peter and says, get behind me, Satan.
You're an obstacle to me.
You're thinking not as God does, but as human beings do.
How ironic!
Because Jesus could be speaking those very same words today to many of the clergy from within the walls of the Catholic Church who have abandoned church doctrine and adopted the evil that my friend and my friend and I witnessed this weekend.
The clergy is leading their flock astray.
Nothing that transpired was from God or could be found in the Bible.
If you are Catholic,
no,
if you are a believer in God,
whatever your practice is,
there is no longer time to think, I should prepare.
Evil is at the front door, but it is also within the walls of our churches itself.
If you remain silent, you are complicit with it.
Evil, silence in the face of evil is evil itself.
Shame on all of us.
who support this behavior or stand in silence or haven't done enough homework to know who Black Lives Matter Inc.
is.
And I say Inc.
because it is a corporation with a hundred and fifty or a hundred and seventy-five million dollars in funding.
And if you don't stop it now in our schools and our churches, you will
lose the sanctity and soul of the Mass or the service that you attend on Saturday or on Sundays.
you will not be able to answer or argue you your case
when your time comes
to say that you stood up for him
and what he believed the power of the individual and individual salvation
you will not be able to look him in the eye and say I stood when it got tough it's just beginning to get tough.
Please, please, all of us, all of us, with love and peace and the peace of Christ in our hearts, must begin to wake those who we have a chance of waking up and get away from the poison that is being slowly poured down our throats and the throats of our children.
Big show tonight.
You don't want to miss 945.
The president, even for the first time, he retweeted something that I tweeted, and it was a promo for tonight's program.
When the president does that, that's got to be something important.
Don't miss tonight's program.
I'll tell you about it here in a second.

Last night, for the very first time, Donald Trump retweeted something that I had put out, which I think goes to show you the importance of today's program.
Today, at 9 p.m.
Eastern, and we're going to put it on YouTube.
I really am concerned about it on YouTube
because of the president's tweet.
It's now going to be targeted and I wouldn't doubt if it doesn't make it on YouTube or it is suppressed by YouTube.
But this is a critical, critical, critical show.
And Tucker Carlson agrees.
Mark Levin agrees.
Sean Hannity agrees.
I believe Rush Limbaugh is on the same page.
This is about
the truth on big tech and what they're going to do on the election.
And we're going to show you the evidence.
You will see it firsthand.
You will see how they are flipping the election, and they can move up to 15 million votes and there will be no record of it.
Tonight, an episode that every American needs to watch.
You know,
if I would ask you, Stu, what is big tech's trust in America?
You know, do you trust Congress?
That's it, what, 18%?
Sure, right.
Right.
What is big tech's trust?
It's a good question.
I mean, part of me thinks it would be very low because
everyone has their problems with Facebook and Google.
On the other hand,
we all use it, right, for everything.
So it may actually be high.
And you know that people are saying it's a ridiculous conspiracy theory that they're after and they're silencing voices.
Yeah, I think it would be higher than Congress.
So Congress is 13,
media is 18,
big tech, 19.
Wow.
That's surprising.
That's that low.
That is shocking.
Because it's also against what's against reality, right?
We can say we don't trust Congress.
Well, I don't trust Congress to do anything, nor do I ask them to do anything.
Do I trust Google?
Well, I go to Google 515,000 times a day.
It shows how compartmentalized our lives are right now.
And when it comes to the election, you cannot compartmentalize it.
And
we're not only going to show you the problem tonight, we are going to beg, and I mean beg, for your help in the solution.
And I need you to watch this show.
The reason why we're putting it on YouTube is we will break it up so you can, you know, your friend doesn't have an hour.
You just, just, we'll break it up into sections and we'll put it out as individual sections so you can send it to them.
They can watch it.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
It's my time of day where I get to talk about Bilt Bar.
This is awesome.
Because Glenn, when they're like, okay, your Built Bar commercial is coming up, he goes, oh, and he opens up the box and just starts eating the Built Bar.
It's like, you don't, you're not required to eat the Built Bar during the commercial.

You know, it does.
Because you try new flavors every time.
Okay, so I said this too.
Hmm.
I think I'm going to try the
apple pie.
Caramel apple crisp or something.
I think you said gosh, yeah, because you said it's I don't know if I would think of chocolate coating on an apple pie would be that good.
You would be wrong,
you would be big time wrong.
Really?
It's good.
These are built bars, they are high-profile protein, low-calorie, high-fiber, low-carb.
Tanya introduced these to me.
I hate protein bars.
These are candy bars.
No guilt.
It's
160 calories, this one.
Some Somewhere lower than that.
It's fantastic.

This is the Glenn Best Program.
I can't believe Netflix is running this documentary, but they are.
We have Tristan Harris on.
He has been on with us before.
He is a Google Design ethicist, and the ethics went out the window, and he was like, I'm either going to go out the window or I need to walk out the door right now
because things are getting spooky.
He is the co-founder and president now of Center for Humane Technology.
Social media is the largest threat to our democracy ahead of the election.
This is our special tonight.
We will show you what they're doing, but Tristan is here to go even deeper.
This special that is coming out, I think, next week, this may finally be the thing that convinces America that you're being watched, you're being manipulated, you're being misled by unscrupulous platforms and attention-harvesting algorithms.
We have the man who knows because he lived it.
He was there in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
All right.
Are you properly diversified in whatever you have?
If you have a 401k,
do you know is it all going to be in in the stock market is it all going to be paid out in dollars
we just had the worst second quarter gdp drop in history almost 32 percent they say
but when you look at these numbers
The real number that bothers me are the numbers that are coming from the Fed.
Up at Jackson Hole, the Fed just had their annual meeting, and they were talking about redefining inflation.
Because the old way we define inflation,
it's kind of old and stodgy.
And we wait, you're going to change the definition and the way you define inflation all of a sudden?
And it has nothing to do with the money printing you've been doing?
It has nothing to do with the Fed being the largest landowner in the world now.
Oh, this sounds good.
Man, can we get some big tech in on this?
Sure, we can
major red flags, major red flags that show that the markets, everything else, the rich are going to, we are going to have class warfare at the end of this because the rich are going to be in a position to where they've just enriched themselves.
And I'm not talking about the, you know, everyday rich, I'm talking about the global people, the people at the globe, the banks, these people are
going to be so empowered and so wealthy, and they're just going to buy everything you have.
Please diversify.

Tonight, Donald Trump's win was a big blow to Silicon Valley elites in 2016.
You know, let's face it, most people here are pretty upset and pretty sad because of the election.
And now, big tech is working overtime to influence the presidential race the way they want.
Facebook, YouTube, Google.
Glenn exposes the tools they're using to manipulate your vote.
Watch digital stormtroopers, how big tech will silence you and steal the election.
Tonight, 9 p.m.
Eastern at BlazeTV.com/slash Glenn.
Tristan Harris is with us now.
He's called the closest thing Silicon Valley has to a conscience.
He spent three years at Google as a design ethicist working on how to fix the attention economy and technology's asymmetric influence over the thoughts and actions of billions of people.
He left there and co-founded the Center for Humane Technology, where he is the president of it, now a nonprofit whose mission is to realign the technology with humanity.
Yeah, that's not going to happen, Tristan.
Welcome to the program.
Thanks for having me, Glenn.
It's good to be back.
I think last time we spoke was three years ago.
I can't believe it's been that long.
It shouldn't be.
I want to talk a little bit about the special that is coming out on Netflix, but
I don't know what it's going to take to convince people
that
we're going to lose the idea of free choice very soon because you won't know what your free will really is.
Have you been manipulated to think that?
Can you explain that to people?
Yeah,
well, so for people to understand also the lens that I'm using to talk about these topics as a kid, I was a magician, and so I've had a lifelong experience of asymmetric information.
Like, how does one party, you know, magician, know more about your mind than you know about yourself?
If they didn't know more, then the trick wouldn't work.
So the whole premise is there's asymmetric influence from technology to us, but it's not quite the kind that people think.
I mean, think about the time.
Last time you said, I'm going to watch this one YouTube video that looks really interesting and then I'm going to go back to work after the video and then next thing you know you wake up two hours later and you say what what just happened to me and you think man I should have had more self-control but what that hides is behind that piece of glass that screen is like basically the largest supercomputer in the world that has almost like an avatar voodoo doll model of you and it can basically simulate if I were to prick you with this video versus with this video how long could I get you to stay and YouTube is running these simulations on each of our avatars to figure out what's the perfect next video to show and if you think about the fact that our brain you know is running pretty old hardware there compared to the biggest supercomputer in the world at Google that we're gonna lose that battle and that's the problem is that technology we have the largest AI systems in the world predicting what's the perfect thing to keep you here and the problem is that that reinforces affirmation not information because the things that tend to work that keep you there are things that confirm your views about reality that are even a more extreme view of your existing view of reality.
So if you look around the world and you say why does the whole world feel like it's gone crazy everywhere all at once?
You're seeing levels of polarization, divisiveness, anger, you're seeing extremist militias on all sides showing up around the world, you're seeing people in the streets.
What do these countries have in common?
And the answer is social media has become the information infrastructure for humanity.
And it's not having our best interests at heart.
So the film, The Social Dilemma, is really the first film.
You can think of it almost like The Insider with Big Tobacco because the film takes the insiders who built the Facebook like button, the father of virtual reality, Jaron Lanier, the YouTube recommendations engineer who built some of the recommendation system,
early employees from Twitter, from Pinterest, from Instagram, who are all talking on camera about these are the unintended consequences of these systems that have kind kind of you know gone out of control like a Frankenstein and
and that's why the film is so important because you know as long as these companies profit from outrage from confusion from distraction from addiction from depression let alone we haven't talked about the issues of teenage girls because teenage girls age 10 to 14 years old suicides have gone up by about 150 percent since 2009 or 10 And that's and that's, we think, very related to social media really arriving on mobile at that time and putting teenage girls, especially in this kind of constant bullying, social pressure type situation, which is something of universal concern.
So, you know, this film, we're really hoping that this becomes kind of a shared artifact, a shared truth about the breakdown of shared truth and about the breakdown of society that's occurred from these social media platforms.
And then figure out how do we fight back from there, right?
How do we take that control?
But how do you, I mean, you know, I was seeing today
the head of YouTube.
she was talking about how, you know, they're going to start looking for, and they already have, authoritarian news and then, you know, pushing down anything that they don't feel is, you know, from an authoritative source.
And she said, we're teaching
the
super, I can't remember what she called it, not the algorithm.
Yeah.
She said, we are teaching through machine learning
what truth is.
And I thought they
they don't even know what truth i can't tell you what truth is they think they know what truth is how do you ever when this machine
as we approach the singularity how do you ever retrain it to think truth is something else
yeah they they really can't but i mean i think you and i both know this there's there's what is what is truth right i mean i don't mean that truth doesn't exist but let's say that we're looking on twitter as an example for just a second.
So
truth is, well, the best quote-unquote truth, I mean, the basis of what truth could be defined as is what people are tweeting.
But people are tweeting about things that happened 30 seconds ago or five minutes ago, and people don't know what's true.
And
they can simply spin it.
And the way to think about it, I think, is that Twitter has turned each of us into yellow journalists, where each of us are incentivized to say something with absolute certainty without knowing that it's true.
And this is happening on all sides of the political spectrum.
And it means that we're just lobbing things.
It's almost like we're littering into the epistemic commons.
We're littering into the information environment.
And we're polluting it, but we don't actually see that that's what we're doing.
And Twitter incentivizes us because it gives us that dopamine rush of, look, you get more likes and more followers the more angry you are and the more certain you are and the bigger mob you build off of a caricature of what someone else on the other side said.
And this is happening again on all sides.
It's driving all of us into this very warlike, you know, I think we're all feeling this this almost like pre-Civil War type thing that we we don't have to go this way we're really hoping that this film can become kind of a wake-up call for that and and the same thing if you want to go to the YouTube example you know they don't know what truth is they can they can do things like okay we're going to prioritize
you know longer standing brands of media because that that might be helpful and you know it's been a kind of massively democratized force which you know has had many benefits but the problem is that there's many many
people gaming that system.
I think there's an article in the Neiman Journalism Lab that something like 400 local news sites are just masquerading fake news sites basically because it's very easy to start up these local fake news sites that are fake.
And one reason for that, by the way, in the death of the fourth estate in local journalism is because technology companies have hollowed out the profitability of all these local newspapers, as we know.
And as you know, Thomas Jefferson, if I had to choose between having a government versus having perfect news, I would choose perfect news because the people need to be informed.
And one of the other side consequences of technology companies is hollowing out the profitability of local journalism, which we need to keep our institutions in check.
Yeah, I find many times it's the local news reporters are the only ones you can trust.
They're closest to it.
They had the video, and they're not part of the system, although they are part of the clicks and the likes and everything else.
But generally speaking, the closer you get to it,
the
more accurate it is.
They have more of the incentives and the
theoretically, I mean, it used to be the training to figure out, okay, we don't just report on it because it happened.
We say there's a developing story here.
We're going to figure it out.
And that's what local journalism would do.
But again, when local journalism has to cater to that same race to the bottom of the brainstem to get clicks out of people, because Facebook is the, you know, they're beholden to Facebook, right?
Local journalism gets most of its traffic from Facebook, which means that they have to participate in this kind of race to the bottom of outrage and clickbait headlines and things like that.
And so it's actually made journalism writ large even worse across the board, everywhere in the world.
And that's what's so subtle about this.
It's so invisible because we're 10 years into this grand psychology experiment.
that this is the largest psychology experiment we've ever run on humanity, where you have literally, you you know three or four major technology companies with you know a hundred people making these design decisions and algorithm decisions that are then shaping what three billion people are thinking and believing about what's real and each of us have been in it we treat it as normal that of course that's what's real and that's what the news is but we don't see that we're being fed a completely different diet than the person right next to us including our own family member um and that and that's what's so pernicious about it is the invisibility of this breakdown of truth of shared truth of shared reality Okay, we're going to continue with Tristan here, and let me just take a one-minute break.
Tristan, we'll be back.
You need to watch this special.
It's coming out next week on Netflix called The Social Dilemma.
But what he was talking about there, the invisibility of all of this,
where it's different on your screen than it is on the person right next to you, that is critical because that's what we're addressing tonight in the special about the election.
They are doing things admittedly, and they have been tracked and we can show it to you,
which normally you can't.
You have to be tracking it in real time.
Well, we happen to know the guy who's been tracking it.
And it is critical that you understand
the power of this technology and we do have a way for you to at least expose it.
We need your help on this.
This is probably one of the most important things you could be involved with right now, in my opinion, on the election.
Tonight, the president doesn't retweet anything of mine, anything of mine.
This is the first time in four years he's retweeted anything.
He retweeted the special tonight
because of the impact that high-tech
can have
and big tech can have on the election.
That's tonight, blazetv.com/slash Glenn.
Use the promo code Big Tech.
Big Tech.
It's going to be on YouTube, but
I don't know what that means anymore.
I don't know if we'll be suppressed or I don't know.
So please join us at Blazetv.com.
If your friends don't want to join, fine, watch it on YouTube.
But spread this as far and wide as you can tonight, the Wednesday night special.
Just look for Glenn TV, 9 p.m.
tonight on Blaze TV.
All right.
We want to thank our sponsor, AMAC.
AMAC is an alternative to AARP.
If you're somebody that's with AARP and you're a conservative, what are you thinking?
Honestly, what are you thinking?
AARP worked so hard against the interest, in my opinion, against the interest of seniors when it came to the fight for the overhaul of healthcare.
It was unbelievable to watch, really unbelievable to watch.
AMAC was born during that time.
AMAC will give you the same stuff, the discounts on your car insurance, hotels, roadside assistance, dental plans, all of that stuff.
And they have the benefits that will make your life cheaper and easier, but they also stand for the kind of American values that you stand for.
They are in Washington, and they are a conservative voice standing for courage and faith and reason.
I can't believe that's a conservative value now.
Just reason.
Things like individual liberty, free speech, freedom of religion, Second Amendment, all of the amendments, sanctity of life.
Stand with AMAC as they fight the good fight.
Become a member today.
The benefits are great.
The cause is greater.
Join us now at AMAC, A-M-A-C dot U.S.

That's AMAC.us
slash Beck.
AMAC, better?
Did I say it wrong the first time?
The answer to that is always yes.
Always yes.

Don't mess with me.
I'm in the Hall of Fame.

10 seconds, station ID.
Tristan Harris on with us talking about big tech and how they can influence you and how they are are influencing you now.
He's a former Google Design ethicist.
He left there to try to ring the warning bell and bring people together.
And he's done just that.
There's a special that we'll probably have you on again next week if you would come on again to talk about this Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma.
I think it's a really important documentary.
But, Tristan, I want to go back to my original question because I don't think again that,
and maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think people understand that free will will be in question because
you will be fed a product or a
politician or a line of thinking, and it will be fed to you in such subtle ways, the way that only the algorithm will know that you will respond to.
And over time, it could completely flip you into something, choosing something that you may not have been for but over time you're like yeah i'm oh absolutely and your free will is gone because you didn't take that journey the algorithm took that journey for you
that's right yeah well i'm really glad you're asking you know this question um you know reminds me of the metaphor in magic you know if the magician says pick a card any card your perception and felt sense is that you're making a free choice about what card to pick but of course if the if the magician is choosing the menu or the deck from from which you are picking, those choices are not going to be free.
And the issue with social media is, you know, it says you pick your friends, you pick the news sources you follow, you do this.
But of course, it's selecting the menu from those things to show you because it's, you know, there is thousands and thousands and thousands of things from your existing friends that you're already connected to that it could show you when you open up Facebook news feed or YouTube or things like that.
And what it's selecting based on is what would be the perfect thing to keep you here and the perfect thing to keep you here is not the same thing so in the case of YouTube for example when these algorithms were running over the last 10 years it you know it generally selected for the things that were most outrageous there's a study from Twitter that for every word of moral outrage which is a negative moral emotion that you add to a tweet it increased the retweet rate by 17% so if you say you know Glenn Beck is a outrageous or you know it's disgraceful that he says this
you get more.
In the case of YouTube,
there were recommendations of conspiracy theory videos that were off the charts.
And I'm not saying this like it's all like all conspiracy theories are wrong, but he was recommending things like flat earth conspiracies hundreds of millions of times.
And I think a lot of parents who set their kids in front of YouTube, you know, especially in the age of pointed times when they're going to be, they had no idea.
And then their kids come to them and say, hey, hey, mommy, daddy,
why is the earth flat?
That or the holocaust didn't happen.
This is the new education system.
We are going to have to pick this up next week.
Tristan Harris, thank you for what you're doing.

American Financing, NMLS, 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
More on this tonight and next week.
We are not thinking about things like we should be.
So American financing.
Good news and bad news.
Good news is American home ownership is on the rise.
Good for Americans and the economy.
But what's fueling it?
I don't know.
People fleeing all the cities because they're on fire.
That's one good reason I can think of.
The other reason, of course, is that mortgage rates have plummeted over the course of the year, where last year you were looking at, you know, seeing an average rate of 4%.
This year, you're seeing a rate of three and in some cases, the twos.
Getting a mortgage is easier than it used to be.
Getting refinancing on an existing mortgage is as well.
You'll save a buttload of money.
Please don't put yourself in debt, but use these rates to get yourself out of debt.
Okay,
bad news?
I don't have any.

Tonight on Blaze TV, a brand new Stew Does America, followed by the Big Tech special from Glenn Beck.
It's blazetv.com slash Glenn, code big tech.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
I know it's hard.
You choose us or the David Blaine Ascension on YouTube right now.
I don't know.
He's up at
19,000 feet.
He can barely breathe.
Will he make it?
I don't know.
I'm on the edge of my seat.
He seems to usually make it.
Yeah, he surely does.
I don't know what the magic trick is here.
He's got a parachute.
He's not really holding on to the balloons like, you know, like, hey, I'm just going, whoops, I just took off.
Like, you know, in some Disney Mary Poppins movie, he's
pretty well tethered to the balloons.
When he releases it,
he's got a parachute.
So I don't.
I'm not sure what the magic is.
It's kind of a downer, too, after watching
the little girl in Thailand got tangled in the kite and flew up like hundreds of feet in the air.
Did you see this photo?
No, I didn't see that.
It's incredible.
She's so high.
It's a kite festival.
Apparently, very windy.
Somehow a three-year-old gets tied up in the end of one of these big kites, and the kite just takes off.
And she's just like, it looks like hundreds of feet in the air.
Just hanging on or tangled in a kite.
Did she come back?
Whipping around?
No, the sad story is she just landed and splattered on the
and my dream was safe.
I thought maybe David Blaine was out looking for it.
He's going to be like, hey, here's the magic trick.
Look what I found in my parachute, a little girl.
No, that would be good ending.
Yeah,
there are some magicians that probably have found little girls
in their backpack, which probably would be a bad thing.
Anyway,
so we'll let you know if he lives or not here in just a few minutes.
I want to talk to you about something that really pisses me off.
A couple of years ago, I did a chalkboard laying out the blueprint for how do you destroy a country.
How do you do it?
You need a trust implosion.
American institutions would
combust and burn down in front of us, and the civil unrest that followed would fundamentally transform our nation, and you wouldn't recognize anything anymore.
Do you think we're there yet?
Gallup has compiled the data tracking American trust in institutions since 1973.
Here are the results.
Trust in Congress,
13%.
No real surprise there.
Well, I surprised it was that high.
Trust in big business and big tech at 19%.
Trust in the media, 18%.
Now, there are three institutions that are still trusted in our country right now.
All three of these were on my chalkboard.
Big tech, Congress, media, and so were these.
As the country turns against all of these institutions, we turn on each other.
And when the government merges with private corporations and the media becomes their mouthpiece, history has shown that loudmouth authoritarians with weird little mustaches usually follow.
By far, the three most trusted institutions in the country right now, and I can't believe it is this low.
Number three,
churches
at 42%.
Second one, what would you think?
The second most trusted institution is in America.
The police?
The police.
Wait a minute.
I thought we were the police.
I don't understand.
The second most trusted institution in the United States.
Now, that is clearly something that the left doesn't want you to hear about.
They don't want you to believe that half of the country trusts the police.
But it's true.
So now what have they been doing lately?
The full-out assault on both churches and the police.
Churches and the police are doing more for the underprivileged, starving, and imperiled than anything in Washington, D.C.
could ever hope to do.
And that's why the left's machine is coming after them.
In their warped reality, your God and local government have no place in their great society.
They want you to beg for their little scraps of mercy if you will learn to fall in line.
Now, what's the most trusted?
Churches, 42.
Police, 48.
The most trusted?
I know you know this one, Stu.
Do I?
You do.
The least.
The most.
Oh, the most trusted.
Military.
I would, yeah, the military.
At 72%.
Now, churches, a threat, so they went after them.
The police, a threat.
We're seeing what they're doing to them every single night.
So what do you think the next target's going to be?
The left has absolutely no shame.
And yesterday, the ideological assault on our men and women in uniform began.
The New York Times posted an article, The Few, the Proud, the White.
The Marine Corps balks at promoting generals of color.
Now listen to this.
I kid you not.
Proud and fierce in their identity.
The Marines have a singular race problem that critics say is rooted in decades of resistance to change.
As this nation reels this summer from protests challenging century-long's perception of race, the Marines, who have long cultivated a reputation as the United States' strongest fighting force, remain an institution where only a handful of white men rule over the 185 white, African-American, Hispanic, and Asian men and women.
I am so sick and tired, I am about to blow a gasket.
The liars that are setting the tone for this country
and some big shot journalist reporting things they clearly don't have any idea about.
Whites hate black people, that is a lie.
Blacks hate white people, that is a lie.
Systematic racism?
Lie.
And yet, we're being taught by everybody that that
is true.
That's our national narrative right now.
It's a lie.
And we must fight it with every ounce of energy we have in our being.
The New York Times journalist goes on to claim that basically they say the Marines are a bunch of white overlords that only accept members from the good old boy club.
Now, I'm...
I'm.
I'm sorry, but if you're going to stand on that soapbok and make that claim, I have a few words for you.
The black Marine colonel that was used as an example, I think he'd probably have some words for you too.
Well, let's see what his comment was.
Oh,
he didn't.
He wasn't quoted anywhere in the article.
Now, why would an author go to claim something like this, make this case, but not have one,
one
word from the person she's talking about?
Well, maybe because I don't know, he'd rather tell her to go stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
Maybe?
Is it seriously a news flash worthy of, well, yes, everything is worthy of the New York Times at this point.
Is it a news flash to point out that the smallest branch in the military has fewer minority generals?
News at 11, who cares?
This is a meritocracy.
I want the best person.
If it's black, if it's an octopus, I will put, I'll put the little hat on it.
It'll be weird, but I'll I'll put the little hat on an octopus who is the best
here's what I want you to do I want you to ask every Marine you know
I have
ask them what they think about this
if the left seriously wants to run with this false neighborhood narrative and vilify the military and our Marines why don't they try to walk the same walk as the Marines do put down your designer glasses and your latte and step away from your warrior keyboard and walk the walk of the Marines.
Walk into a recruiting center.
Go to the enlistment processing station where you're all herded into a medical screening shoulder to shoulder in your underpants.
At that point, you might actually not like the person you're standing to, whether it be for their race, religion, or creed.
People dislike people for a whole lot of different crap.
But as for the Marines,
once you get on that bus and then you stop, then an insane drill instructor screams in your face on those little iconic yellow footprints that they all have to stand on.
And you get the truth shoved into your face.
You better all come together.
Your petty grievances and your differences mean nothing.
That's what the Marines do.
The Marines have a saying.
Actually, they have a lot of sayings, but first and foremost is this one.
We see no color but green.
Many of my friends are Marines.
All my friends tell me the same story, racial harmony.
Most racial harmony they've seen, except for being in church.
One of them told me when he was a United States Marine,
he knew he was of an elite fighting force because it was a merit.
It was merit-based.
It was merit above all.
Your proficiency as a war fighter that writes your ticket.
So, to these journalists, you go take the oath.
Stand on the yellow footprints and see what you have, what it takes.
Watch what happens when 60 men and women become your brothers and sisters in a boot camp.
Sit in that foxhole where both your lives depend on each other and tell me, Are you noticing the color of them?
While you know that they are the ones that could save your life,
By the way, the first black general in the Marine Corps was Frank Peterson.
Not once did the New York Times mention him.
General Peterson, he enlisted in 1950, motivated after hearing the first Navy black pilot was Jesse Brown, died in Korea.
He made a personal vow to become a Marine Corps first black aviator, and he did.
Then he became a general, and he did it in the 1950s, a time when the rest of the country, led by Democrats, were making it hard for black people to to earn a living.
So don't lecture the Marines.
General Peterson died in 2015.
It was recently announced he's one of the he's his name is going to be on one of the most sophisticated destroyers.
It'll be named the USS Peterson.
Ask one of these woke journalists what they see there.
They'll probably say a black Marine general.
Ask a Marine what they see.
They'll see one of the greatest generals that ever commanded the Marines.
That's what they'll say.
One of the greatest Marines to ever put on the uniform.
One of our uniforms.
And we're one of his.
You see the difference?
Do you see the difference?
It's a lesson so many in this country, mostly on the left, could really learn from.
It's an easy solution.
You want to fix this problem?
Call your local Marine Corps recruiter right now
and go ahead and enlist.
You tell me in a few weeks if you see color anymore.
Back in a minute.
You know why they won't enlist?
Because they're like me.
They're wusses.
They'd never let me into the Marines.
All right, let me paint a picture in your mind.
I want you to imagine thick marble juicy steaks seasoned and seared on both sides so tender that it falls apart on your fork.
And then bacon-wrapped scallions or scallops sizzling on the plate.
Oh,
sound good?
Yes, that's your life with a rek tech.
Throw in some vegetables.
I mean, if you want, if you have to, you want to ruin it, go ahead.
Or if some woman is eating with you.
If any of the things that I just said makes you more hungry, you...
I mean, you definitely need to up your grilling game to the level where it ought to be, and that is with smart grill technology with
Rectech.
Sturdy design, hopper full of heat, and delicious wood smoke.
RekTech stands head and shoulders above the competition.
It's going to be the last grill you're ever going to want to buy.
It really will.
Check it out.
Do a side-by-side comparison.
Check out the best grill you can find out on the market, and then check out RekTech.
You'll see the difference.

You're listening to Glenn Back.
This David Blaine thing,
jumping from the balloons, it's the dumbest thing I've ever seen.
What are you talking about?
The guy
is in the air, and they came down in a parachute.
That doesn't happen in our society.
That happens all the time.
Well,
sure, but you have to go to like one of those places.
We just watched somebody have a parachute lesson.
That's all that happened.
That's what that was.
That's all that was.
There was no magic to it.
There was nothing mystical about it.
There was nothing like, oh, wow, then nothing.
What was the big deal?
They're trying really hard to build the drawbow with a two-sec.
I don't know.
Do we see any power lines?
Am I going to hit any power lines?
I don't know.
You're in the middle of a desert.
I don't know if there are any power lines.
Is there a zoo?
If I land in a lion cage, I could be eaten.
There's no zoo around you, but I could be eaten by a lion.
There's no, there's, there's no, there's nothing.
penguins.
Penguins get really angry.
They could peck my eyes out.
Are there any penguins here?
I mean, it was so stupid.
And I guess the drama was, was he going to be able to land with his parachute?
Was that the drama?
Yes.
I don't know.
And they were like, the whole time, they're like, don't worry, wherever you land, we got a helicopter right behind you.
We'll pick you up.
Oh,
so you don't even have to walk a long way.
It was sort of death-defying, though.
I don't know if you noticed.
He wasn't wearing a mask while he was parachuting.
So that is definitely
risky.
I think the helicopter is going to take him to the salon that Nancy Pelosi was in.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's going to get his hair cut there.
You can tell when you find
a salon that has COVID or not.
You just kind of...
visually can tell and then you don't have to wear the mask.
At least that's what Nancy can at least Nancy can tell.
Really?
Yes.
I didn't know that.
Yeah, no, it's true.
Really?
It's true.
Wow.
Well, and again, Nancy's hair is important.
Your Your hair, who cares about your hair?
Nancy Pelosi's hair is important.
That's why I have my Nancy Pelosi sucks pen here to remind me every day how much she sucks.
See, I wish I could remember where I could get one of those.
It's Nancy PelosisucksPen.com.
Really?
Do we still have any?
We actually just got them back in stock.
So yes, it's funny.
It's like tens of thousands of those.
It was insane.
We put it up as a joke.
As a joke.
Stu was like,
let's just do this.
And somebody said, well, why don't we really do it?
And we're like, I don't know.
Do we have to buy more than five pens?
Because no one's going to buy them.
Tens of thousands of people.
Well, it's an exact replica of the pen she signed the impeachment papers with.
And it has with her actual signature, Nancy Pelosi, and then the word sucks after it.
So you have to kind of look close.
But it's in her pen.
I thought it was going to maybe sell for around, you know, maybe it would sell around the impeachment stuff.
People have realized she just continues to suck.
This is just a timeless item now.
Here's the good news is if we can't decide who's president,
she becomes president of the United States.
All right, so tons of pens then.
We'll jam them into her eyes.
