Welcome to the podcast.

We saw a bunch of protests this weekend of people trying to say, hey, you know, I'd like to have some of my freedoms back.

I think that's a good idea.

Elijah Schaefer was at one of these protests.

He tells us what actually happened.

It's a little bit different than you're hearing from the media.

What

businesses should be getting these small business loans that we've approved here in this country?

Giant chain restaurants?

Well, it seems like a lot of the money is going there.

We get into that.

Michael Malis joins us with just a really disturbing story about someone who was murdered or killed by authorities this weekend in

Maryland.

Plus, we have,

again, you know, this path on talking about how to make money as a small business owner in this new world we're dealing with that comes up as well today and the coverage of Joe Biden doesn't even exist we'll get into that as well make sure to pick up Glenn's new book Arguing with Socialists that's available now as well as the big special Glenn has coming up this week if you go to Blazetv.com use the promo code Glenn while you're there you'll get 30 bucks off and you get to see this special about the way our response was was designed and how we've come to the decisions we've come to over the past few months.

We'll get into that this week on the Glenbeck TV show.

Here's the podcast:

you're listening to

the best of the Glenbeck

All right, here's our update.

Total confirmed cases worldwide now, 2,400, up from almost 2.2 on Friday.

The deaths are up about 20,000 globally.

The U.S.

now has

746,000 cases.

That's up from 687 on Friday.

And we are up about 6,000 in in deaths to 40,766.

We currently have 13,400 people in serious or critical condition.

We are now 13th in fatality rate per 1 million people.

We are behind the Netherlands, and Sweden, and Ireland, and Spain, and Italy, and UK, and Belgium, all those places with socialized medicine.

At least 20 states now in the U.S.

are using Chinese-made aerial drones to ensure that we are following our

social distancing regulations.

Stu,

this is what I think the problem is.

It's not just about opening up the restaurant.

It's about that we have 20 states using Chinese drones to monitor us.

Yeah, I mean, the idea that essential activity has been defined in such strange ways, like, don't we start with, I don't know, our constitutionally guaranteed rights?

Wouldn't that be a good place to start when you're talking about essential activities?

And yet we're banning gun sales, we're banning church services, we're banning protests, we're banning all the things that are included in our constitutionally guaranteed rights and leaving other things bizarrely open.

Like, you know, Florida opened up their beaches this weekend, which I think a lot of people were very appreciative of.

However, they were only open for things like surfing, which like surfing is defined as essential activity because it's exercise, I guess.

But relaxing at the beach and reading a book is not essential.

So, that would be banned by the way that they've opened up.

That's insane.

That is, I think, the issue.

This stuff doesn't make sense to people.

I think people, generally speaking, have done a really good job trying to

honor these things and make sure that they don't spread this virus.

And they've been incredibly constrained.

Nobody has a death wish.

Nobody wants to get sick.

Nobody wants everybody else to die.

They just don't like it that they are being told exactly what to do.

And now,

when you have a Chinese tech company that is tied directly to the Communist Party, has CCP board members on the board of directors, and we're buying drones from them for our police department.

And the police department is flying these over the heads of people saying, hey, you got to go home.

No,

I don't think so.

I don't think so.

I'm not, let's just see.

I'm not supposed to go to church, even if I'm in a car with my windows rolled up.

Not supposed to go to church.

That's First Amendment.

I'm not supposed to congregate and associate with people in a group.

That's First Amendment.

I can't associate with people.

Now,

Facebook just banned the people that were online that were saying, hey, we want to do a protest in our area.

They just banned them because the governors told Facebook to ban them.

So that's First Amendment.

Can't go buy a gun.

That's Second Amendment.

I mean,

how much more do we need to do?

Yeah, like I would, I'd love to see what the reaction would be by the media if a governor said, you know what?

You guys can't go out and cover these protests because it's just too dangerous, can't be outside.

Again, same amendment would be being restrained.

We say, okay, no, freedom of the press just doesn't apply right now.

You guys can't go out and cover things.

It's too dangerous.

How do you think the press would react to that?

Would they react the same way as when our First Amendment rights go away for the right to go?

We're looking at the difference between life and death.

You guys cannot be in those buildings.

You can't be doing these things.

You can't be covering those stories.

You can't.

It's just life and death.

They would go ape.

They would go absolutely ape.

And of course, that would be completely irrational reaction.

Like many of these places

are keeping their employees home, working from home, if it's possible.

But if they need to be out at a place covering it, they're sending them out there.

Is that okay?

Is that okay?

Because I can,

if the governor tried to stop that, it would be the story of the year because they would say it was a constitutional violation for a million different reasons.

And you know what?

They'd be right about that.

The same way, I mean, I think you can ask all you want.

Like, you can ask people to not go to church on Easter Sunday.

And you know what?

Every church, at least that I know of in my area,

did it online and they did everything they could to try to make sure that people were safe and healthy and still were able to worship.

And would have.

And would have done it.

In fact, my church did it before there was a mandate.

My church came out like two days before.

Remember, I said, my church just canceled everything.

There's no meetings, there's no church, there's nothing.

Two days later, that's when the rest of the country went under.

I mean, we're not stupid.

We're not stupid.

Right.

But on the other side, like my mom goes to a church, which is a small church, and they've been doing services with the cars.

Like, you know, you could pull in with your car, and they're doing, you know,

and that has been completely, there's no risk to it.

It's a small gathering of people in the cars.

And that has been okay where she's located, I guess.

But many states are stopping that.

For what reason?

For no reason.

Just to show that they can control you, that they can push you around.

And that is what makes people believe, I think correctly in some ways, that this is a lot more about control than it is about

control of people rather than control of the virus.

You know, like, you know, canceling protests, you know, on Facebook, all of these things feed into that.

And there's no reason for it.

It should be opposite.

You know, when you want to say, hey, like, look, we understand.

If you want to go and you want to have a service in your cars, if you think it's that important, absolutely go and do it.

Just please stay separate.

You know, 99.9% of people are going to honor that because they want to.

They want to.

They are so out of touch that it seems as though to, I think, the average American that likes the Constitution, it seems as though they are taking advantage of this and they're only making, they keep upping it.

Where you're exactly right, if they would just ask and say, hey, look, we talked to all of the church leaders and we appreciate that.

And there are ways.

I mean, there's this one church over here that's doing it with cars.

We would highly recommend that.

But, you know, it's up to each individual.

A quarantine is when you quarantine and you isolate the sick people, not the healthy people, the sick people.

And that's what they've done.

They've quarantined all of the healthy people.

And look,

I don't have a problem with it per se because I think it needed to be done.

But I do have a problem.

Like, for instance, I don't have a problem with the Texas governor and what he's doing.

And he seems to be opening things up and

moving slowly.

Would I like it to go a little faster?

Maybe, but I'm not sitting there looking at all of the, I'm not being advised by the medical people

and balancing that with the advice that I would get from all the small business people.

I know that we're in a very dicey situation.

It better happen in the next couple of weeks that we start to go back to work, but not in places like New York.

All right, so what are we going to do?

I don't have a problem staying at home right now, and I'm not going to go to a restaurant.

If it opened today or the movie theater, and it was a packed restaurant or a packed movie theater, I'm not going to the movie theater because of my choice.

I don't like it when they take my choice away.

I mean, it's like teenagers.

At some point, you have to let them start to make their own choices and fail at the choices because they don't.

Teenagers don't like it when authority says you will do this

so you hopefully have raised them enough to only have to put the guardrails around the big stuff

well there's no guardrails here we're just children now the city of new york and bill deblasio is current encouraging people to be rats and that is i mean that's the city to do it in and rat on your neighbor.

Send pictures of your neighbor doing something that they shouldn't be doing.

My gosh, do you want to talk about the Stasi?

Talk about turning neighbor against neighbor.

Wow, that's the way to do it.

60% now of PPP cash went to publicly traded companies.

Congress authorized $350 billion for the payroll protection program for small businesses, and it looks like most of that cash went to chain restaurants and franchises and hotels that are part of publicly traded companies.

Franchise locations, including some that are technically owned and operated by a larger publicly traded company, qualified as small businesses.

Less than 10% now of the PPP loans ended up going to small businesses that employed fewer than 50 employees.

Now, here's some good news.

It looks like

COVID is easily destroyed by UV light.

Most coronavirus studies are easily destroyed by exposure to sunlight, including the SARS-CoV-2.

UV light cripples the lipid-base membrane, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

UVC does not, it does kill coronavirus.

UVC light is completely harmless to humans and our eyes.

UVC light bulbs are available in the U.S.

I guess if we wanted to open up our business, the best thing we could do is maybe

put UVC light bulbs everywhere in our places of business.

Oh, by the way, did you see Sherman Williams has now come out with a paint?

Why aren't we painting all of our hospitals and our schools right now as they're closed?

They should all be repainted with the anti-COVID virus paint.

Somehow or another, they've developed a paint that

it kills the coronavirus and doesn't allow it to live on the paint surface.

Experts are now saying that it's time to close grocery stores.

Some experts, union leaders, and small grocery store owners believe it's become too dangerous to let customers browse the aisle.

So they're now saying the large food chains need to go dark.

Okay,

that doesn't sound like a good idea,

but

whatever.

Chinese has now produced news articles in Arabic blaming the U.S.

for COVID-19.

Things are going to get dicey with China.

We have an update on that tomorrow that you really don't want to miss.

Also, it looks like we may run out of beer, soda, and other carbonated beverages.

The lockdown

is hurting our ability

to make compressed carbon dioxide.

And now it looks like

our bubblies are not going to be so bubbly.

The overall demand for fuel has dropped over 30% since the pandemic began.

That, in turn, has caused ethanol plants to stop producing so much ethanol, which is also used as an additive in many fuel products in the U.S.

That is a problem for consumers of fizzy beverages because a significant portion of the country's supply of compressed carbon dioxide, which is used to generate fizz in these beverages, comes as a result of the byproduct of ethanol production.

Now I suddenly care about the

oil price.

And coronavirus.

The pandemic has reportedly caused shortages on several items, but apparently people really like frozen pizza.

We bought $275 million worth of frozen pizza during the month of March.

This is an increase of 92%

from the same time period of the previous year.

According to Ad Week, the increase in sales of frozen pizza is comparable to the recent rush of toilet paper.

As news of coronavirus and impending shutdowns broke, you know, I have to tell you something.

I was one of them that bought a bunch of frozen pizzas.

Did you, Stu?

Well, I register that regularly.

It was no change

in my typical pattern.

Yeah, I never buy frozen pizzas, but boy, I did.

That first, when we went in and I first did some shopping, I went in right to the frozen food aisle and I went right to the pizzas.

And I'm like, we're getting all of those.

Well, it makes sense, right?

Like, it's a good food that will stay for a long time if you happen to be in that.

Look, the food chain breaks down.

Mom and dad are dead.

Mom and dad are dead.

You just put this in the microwave, kids.

You step over our dead bodies and you just heat this up and it's called a pizza pocket.

You'll love it.

Right now, the media would have you believe that everywhere in America is completely closed for business.

While there are very few places which are completely business as usual, the American economy is soldiering on.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

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

Pat Gray is joining us from Pat Gray Unleashed, the podcast that you can get wherever you hear podcasts, or you can hear him do it live right before this program on the Blaze Radio Network.

Hello, Mr.

Pat Gray.

Hello, Glenn.

Very excited to.

I am really excited about the freedoms we're losing.

It's really interesting to watch and fun.

Oh, what freedoms have we lost?

You people.

What freedoms have we lost?

Almost nothing.

Well, okay, we can't go anywhere and we can't do anything.

And we're asked to narconors, which I think is wonderful.

And,

you know, if we're talking.

Well, that's Bill de Blasio.

What are you going to say?

He's a Marxist, fascist, communist?

Oh, yeah.

I am going to say that.

All right, okay.

I am going to say that.

Here's Bill de Blasio over the weekend to New Yorkers.

Now it is easier than ever when you see a crowd, when you see a line that's not distanced, when you see a supermarket that's too crowded, anything, you can report it right away so we can get help there to fix the problem.

And now it's as simple as taking a photo.

All you got to do is take the photo and put the location with it, and bang, send a photo like this, and and we will make sure that enforcement comes right away.

Wow, we've made your access activity so easy now.

So great.

We will have your neighbor strapped to a chair within 25 minutes.

I mean, holy cow.

Thank you.

That is great.

You know, I was just saying,

Pat, and I'd love to hear your opinion on this.

This movement that is starting to happen around the country,

the Washington Post said, it's a new Tea Party movement.

Well, if that one was about the Constitution, then yes, that's what this one's about too.

I don't believe this is a movement that I want to go and

go to my favorite store and get my favorite ice cream.

This is about

these cities and these states that are becoming Nazi-like, where I can't even get into my car and go for a drive.

Excuse me.

Yeah, it's not America.

And it's kind of heartening to see

all of the pushback now.

And I know at the other side of this, the Democrats are all saying, you guys just want to, you just, you're capitalists who just want capital.

Well,

I mean, even if that were true, we should be able to be capitalists who are bringing home capital because

our kids are going to be starving pretty soon.

I mean, we are so blessed and fortunate to have a job.

I don't know why, but it's considered essential.

And so we still have jobs, but there are 22 million people who in three to four weeks all lost their jobs and have no way of paying their bills.

No, and can't, in Michigan,

you can't even get to the unemployment office.

You can't call the unemployment office.

People have been calling for two weeks and can't file for unemployment.

That's madness.

What do you expect people to do?

As we were just talking to Elijah Schaefer a few minutes ago, he was up at the protest in Washington State.

He said 4,500 people were there.

If that's true, that's an outrageous number of people in Washington State.

But one of the things they can't do there in Washington State is go fishing.

Excuse me?

My grandfather, my uncle, used to go right to the side of the river,

right down the end of their street, and they would fish.

and we would fish and we would have fish for dinner uh you can't do that now i mean that's part of the lifestyle of washington state at least it used to be and you're telling me now if i don't have a job and i can't go get fish

uh that seems unconstitutional entirely unconstitutional that's one of the many instances where it says to me it's just a power grab by the government because there's no reason to not allow single fishermen or or two fishermen who are six feet apart from each other to go out and get fish.

There's no reason to arrest people who are paddleboarding by themselves in an ocean.

There's no reason for any of this.

This is just power-hungry officials clamping down on a populace.

It's despicable.

So

I got a call from somebody.

He's an analyst,

looks at global trends and and everything else.

And we were talking and he said,

I think our major cities are going to, there's a possibility that they become unstable during this in the next, you know, six months or so.

And he said, I wanted to talk to you because I want to understand this movement that's happening.

Do you think it's a big deal?

And I said, I think it's a huge deal and I think it's just beginning.

You know, when you see in the news today that

Shake Shack

got a lot of the small business money.

Okay, well, most people don't even know what Shake Shack is, but if you live,

is it Shake Shack?

It is.

It is, yeah.

Yes, Shake Shack.

Yeah, and

they got some of the money.

Well, I don't know if those are franchise

restaurants or if that's a corporate thing.

But no restaurant has 500.

McDonald's doesn't have 500 employees.

You would say, no, they have millions of employees.

No, but you count them locally.

So if the franchise needs help, they can go out and get it.

And I don't have a problem.

It's a franchise.

But if it's the company,

like,

are they, do you know, Stu, is that a franchise?

They're giving the money back, by the way, they're returning the $10 million.

That's why they're kind of in the news here, but it's definitely not what people thought of when they thought of a small business loans going out.

They think about local places and maybe small, you know, regional chains or something like that.

60% of those businesses that got small business bailouts are traded on the open market.

That's not a small business.

No, and I'm sorry, but if you have stock, you're not a small business.

And what we're seeing most commonly is the

companies that are getting these loans are the companies that already had relationships with banks.

So all these companies that

are already dealing at high levels with banks are the ones getting access to the program.

While the company who might run and be profitable and not need loans from banks this entire time, those are the ones that can't get any access to the capital because they haven't been dealing with a banker over and over again.

Bizarre.

So, I think you're going to see a huge, huge movement that comes from those small business owners and the people that live in, you know,

in the red states that understand the tyranny and also understand, wait a minute, I didn't get a bailout.

Then you're going to get the

then you're going to get the other side.

You're going to get the Elon Omar kind of people and the movements out of New York City where the city did not pay my rent for six months.

And you're going to get that pressure.

Those two movements are going to be very, very similar, but very different at the heart.

But that's what's coming our way.

And when that happens, you have civil unrest.

You're going to have the red states being the media target, the blue states being the ones who are sympathetic, the press is going to be sympathetic towards.

And it'll be the blue state movements like Antifa that will be dangerous.

And that will only make things 100 times worse.

A hundred times worse.

It'll be interesting to see how people respond to what happens in Texas this week because we're very slowly opening things up again.

Governor Abbott announced that retail, small retailers can open up, but only through, I think, curbside

or home industry.

So you can still, I mean, they're already open, most of them.

At least in the DFW area in the Metroplex,

you can already go and get food and bring it home, or they can deliver it.

Yeah, and so they're going to open that up to retail, right?

Like Like so you can theoretically go buy clothing that way, which I mean, which is kind of a weird way to buy clothing.

Yes.

I don't know how that's going to work.

Or like a furniture store, you're going to bring me my couch at the curbside?

Just put it on top of the car like where the flintstones.

Okay.

Yeah, I'm not sure it works that way with the couch.

I don't think it does.

No.

Maybe it does.

And then next week we do the next step, right?

Yeah.

Well, they haven't announced that yet.

I think April 27th, they're making more announcements, which would

allow some restaurants to open with certain circumstances.

I don't think bars yet for sit-down.

Yeah, I think for sit-down, but like much more spaced-out, limited access.

And again, how is that going to happen?

How's that going to help them?

You run on slim margins, you know?

Nobody's making 30% margin.

You generally have a 5% margin, 7% margin.

If you do, that means at a packed capacity, you are probably making money after all the bills are paid for the last couple of days of the month.

Well, if I have to cut my clientele in half,

how do I keep my business open?

Right.

I mean, some of the costs would come down too, right?

But a lot of them are fixed.

So those wouldn't, you know, your rent isn't changing because you have less people in your restaurant.

And, you know, I guess like you could argue that maybe it would allow the loans coming from the government to to go further, right?

So there's some argument there that could be helpful.

But you're right.

I mean, these are not profitable businesses when you're letting 10 people in a restaurant meant for 50 or 60.

Trevor Burrus, Jr.: And will 10 people actually show up and sit down at a restaurant right now?

I think a lot of people are going to be leery initially.

That's what all the polling shows.

The polling shows that still at this point, even Republicans are split on whether the danger is doing too much too quickly to open up the economy or the opposite.

Right.

And among overall people, it's overwhelmingly in favor of the fear being opening things up too quickly.

Well, I think even if you open things up, I mean, I just had a meeting with the researchers and I asked them, and it was

split probably in half.

For me, if you open up restaurants today, I'm not going into a restaurant.

I'll go get my food, but I'm not going to go sit down in a restaurant.

I'm not going to a crowded movie theater.

Are you guys?

No.

No, I mean, you know, if there's a restaurant with 10 people in it, you know, I might

again, but again, like, what does that do really for the restaurant?

Very little,

I think.

You know, if there is, it would be great.

Like, it's funny because one of the things they say is really far away from coming back is fans at sporting events, which again, I understand if a packed stadium would be a really bad idea.

However, an outside environment with a limited crowd capacity probably is one of the more safe environments if you were to take that information.

That's what I don't understand.

When they're saying about the beaches, these beaches were not jam-packed, at least the pictures I saw.

You know, you might have had four people or six people.

Well, I've got six people that are crowded around my kitchen table every day.

You know, if we went as a family and we went out to the beach, I mean, I wouldn't be doing it, but if you went out to the beach and you're open air and you're six feet away from the next group of people, what's the problem with with that?

And it looked like that was against it.

Yeah, it looked like that had

the case.

They did the same thing in the coverage of that as they did with a protest, where they found the one guy who did, who had the crazy sign.

Like, you know, you look at the overall pictures of the Florida beaches, and they were pretty restrained.

People were generally speaking away from each other.

There were, of course, some groupings that didn't look good, and that's what made all the, you know, all the social media rounds, but that's just to be expected.

I mean, generally speaking, I think people have, I've been surprised at how well people have done with these restrictions, honestly.

I'm shocked.

They've made the most independent state in the nation is Texas, and we are the most compliant according to the research.

Wow.

To me, that says everything.

That says everything because we are not people that like to just sit around and be told exactly what to do.

This

is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Elijah Schaefer was up for the Blaze in Seattle, of all places, with one of the protests.

Elijah, how are you?

Glenn, I'm doing great.

Thanks for calling.

Yeah, so the protest in Seattle, not the place I would expect it.

Was it a Liberty protest or was it like an

Antifa protest?

What happened there?

That's a good question.

It was a little bit north.

It took place just a little bit north, about 45 minutes north of Seattle.

And what I thought would have been a bipartisan protest against tyranny, because I thought Antifa was an anarchist, and I thought that they were so much against the control of the government, and they thought Trump was a fascist.

It turned out it was mostly just right-wingers who wanted to go back to work telling the governor that they wanted their rights back.

So, Elijah, I just spent a few minutes saying that

this is not about I want to go see my favorite movie or eat at my favorite restaurant.

This is about

tyranny to stop telling us exactly what we can and cannot do.

Is that accurate in your view?

100%.

The people I talked to, two good examples.

The first woman I spoke to was a single mother.

She hasn't received a paycheck since March 16th.

She's been denied for unemployment because she's self-employed.

She told me and looked right into my face and said, I do not know how to feed my children.

I do not know how to pay rent.

She said, I am not lazy.

I have never not worked.

And now I'm unable to feed my kids.

Why?

Because somebody told me I'm not allowed to.

And another man said, I don't have a job.

I don't have food.

He said, I know how to fish.

And I can't even legally go out and fish.

In Washington, it's illegal to fish.

I can't even catch my own food, let alone afford it, because the government told me that's no longer my right to feed myself.

He can't fish in Washington state?

Correct.

What the hell is

it?

And that's part of the shutdown?

Is you can't fish?

Yeah, and actually, people brought their fishing poles and did,

I guess you could say, symbolic symbolic casts into the fountain in front of the state Capitol building.

But many people

had fishing poles that said, my fishing pole is an essential business because feeding myself is essential.

That's unbelievable.

What was the response from the state?

You know, the response from the state and the media was exactly what you would think.

There were only Republican candidates running and some congressional senators that were there.

There was silence from the governor and lead it up to PBS and the media to lie and say a couple hundred people showed up when in actuality estimates from enterprise reporting was about 4,500.

So the event was smeared from the beginning.

4,500?

4,500 people?

Yes.

It was beyond understanding.

And when I saw that, what I think is hilarious, and you'll check this out, when I went to look at Getty images to see what images they reported, out of 4,500 people, there was one man who had combined a don't tread on me flag and a Confederate flag.

One guy out of 4,500, that's 0.02% of the people.

Only one I saw of all the people.

There was one.

And guess what image, when you type in the protest is there?

That one.

One man

who wasn't even at the main protest.

He was on the street outside.

And the media, and the best part is the angle is from the floor facing up, which blocks out everybody.

So of 4,500 people who, regardless of political opinion, said, let me go back to work.

I want to work.

I'm an American.

Damn it.

I want my job back.

They chose this one guy with a flag that pushed the narrative that they wanted to push and refused to report on the truth.

Unbelievable.

Unbelievable.

They do that.

We had that in tea party after tea party after tea party.

They would go find the one person dressed as the Statue of Liberty, and they would take a picture of that person to avoid the crowd.

I mean, it's nuts.

Elijah, thank you so much.

I really appreciate it.

And thanks for going out.

Were you wearing a mask?

I wasn't wearing a mask.

I was wearing the

TV logo.

But thank God, thank God,

of the five images that the AP took, they did take a picture of me and made sure that they knew that right-wing news correspondent Elijah Schaefer was there.

But hey, at least we were there to tell the other side of the story.

Wow.

Thank you very much.

Is your report up on the Blaze now?

No,

the full report will be up on the Blaze tomorrow, the full video, but the actual video report will be up on the Blaze later today.

Okay, great.

Thank you so much, Elijah.

I appreciate it.
