the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment

Italy is the oldest population in Europe.

Italy is really really getting hard hit by by coronavirus.

We have some of the doctors and some of the nurses that are now speaking out on what's happening in their socialized healthcare world.

And it is heartbreaking to hear what's going on.

We are at the beginning of this coronavirus outbreak.

We'll give you the truth on it.

Beginning in one minute.

This is the Glenbeck program.

So Greg from Alabama, he recently turned 53, and while he, you know, while he's in his 50s and it doesn't bother him the way he always thought it would, it's not a picnic either.

I feel for you, brother.

I feel for you.

Life

brings with it aches and pains, and for Greg, they were getting harder and harder to deal with as time went on.

Simple things like getting up and down from the couch began to be difficult.

He was worried that he was going to lose his mobility, and then he heard about Relief Factor on the radio, and he decided, I'm going to give it a try.

Thank you, Greg, for listening, and thank you for just trying this.

I hope that you found the hope in my voice just from what I went through, that it caused you to try it, whatever it was that caused you to try it.

I'm so happy for you.

It wasn't long before Greg is telling us that he had the full range of motion again, almost no pain.

Greg got his life back.

I got my life back.

Get your life back.

When taken properly, it attacks the inflammation that causes the pain in our bodies.

And 70% of those who start taking Relief Factor continue to take it.

And it's $19.95 for the three-week quick start trial.

If you want a drug-free, natural way to ease your pain and get your life back, go to relieffactor.com.

That's relieffactor.com.

So

I want to read a couple of things

that were Twitter threads, and they are sweeping sweeping the world.

And it gives you an idea

of

what it feels like and what we are facing.

You know, I've been saying for the last few days, we're about 50 days behind China.

And

it's not that it's getting worse around the world.

China is now recovering and all going back to work.

We are behind China.

So now, what are we going to face?

I'm going to give you,

one of my researchers and writers went back, was listening to the show, and went, well, let me look at that.

Went back and put everything in a calendar from 50 days ago.

And when you start looking at the headlines out of China from 50 days ago, we are exactly there.

So we are about to go through this giant ramp up.

Do not panic.

But please

do the things that you're supposed to do.

We are supposed to wash our hands all the time.

We're supposed to not touch our faces all the time.

We are to stay out of big crowds.

Isolate yourself if possible.

Do those things.

Please do those things.

Because when I read what these doctors and nurses are talking about in Italy, you will understand why the government is now saying, do these things.

You'll understand why for the first time we are isolating ourselves.

And it's not because we're all going to die.

It's because no matter what system you have, nothing is prepared for this.

Let me give you the first thread from a well-respected friend and an intensive care nurse

who is currently in northern Italy.

Here's the thread.

I feel the pressure to give you a quick personal update about what's happening in Italy and give you some direct advice about what you should do.

First,

I'm in the most developed region in Italy, and it has extraordinarily good health care.

I've worked in Italy, the UK, and Australia, and don't make a mistake to think what's happening is in a third world country.

It's not.

The current situation, again from Italy, the current situation is difficult to imagine, and the numbers don't explain things at all.

Our hospitals are overwhelmed by COVID-19, and they are running at 200% capacity.

We've stopped all routine.

All ORs have been converted to ITUs.

What's an ITU?

You know, Stu, look that up real quick.

I think that is, you know, kind of an elected thing.

They are now diverting or not treating all other emergencies like trauma, like strokes.

There are hundreds of PTs with severe respiratory failure, and many of them don't have access to anything above a reservoir mask.

Yeah, intensive treatment unit?

Okay, so what they're doing now is they're not able to treat.

You come into the hospital with a stroke, you might as well have stayed home and taken some aspirin because they can't treat you because everything is overwhelmed.

Hospitals at 200% capacity.

Patients above 65 or

younger with comorbidities are now even assessed by,

or are not even assessed by ITU.

I'm not saying not tubed.

I'm saying not assessed with no ITU staff to attend when they go into cardiac arrest.

Staff working as hard as they can, but they are starting to get sick and emotionally overwhelmed.

My friends call me in tears because they see people dying in front of them and they can only offer them some oxygen.

Ortho and pathologist are being given a leaflet and sent to see patients on NIV.

Please stop, read this again and think.

What's NIV, Stu?

We also see the same pattern in different areas a week apart and there is no reason that in a few weeks it won't be the same everywhere.

This is the pattern.

One, a few positive cases.

First few mild measures, people are told to avoid the emergency department, but still hang out in groups.

Everyone says not to panic.

Two, some moderate respiratory failures and a few severe ones that need to be intubated and tubed.

But regular access to the emergency department is significantly reduced, so everything looks great.

Three, tons of patients with moderate respiratory failure that over time deteriorate to saturate ICUs first, then NIVs, then CPAP hoods, then even just oxygen.

4.

Staff get so sick that it gets difficult to cover for shifts, mortality rate spikes from all other causes that can't be treated properly.

10.

Everything about how to treat people is online, but the only thing that will make a difference are these.

Don't be afraid of the massively restrictive measures to keep people safe.

If governments won't do this, at least keep your family safe.

Your loved ones with a history of cancer or diabetes or any transplant will not be tubed, even if they are young.

By safe, I mean do not attend them, and you decide who does and how to help them.

Another typical attitude is to read and listen to people saying things like this and that.

That's a bad dude.

Then they go out to dinner because you think you'll be safe.

We've seen it.

You won't be.

Take it seriously.

It won't be as bad, hopefully, as it is here, but you must prepare.

All right.

And I've non-invasive ventilation.

Okay.

That's what you're looking for there.

So

this, I just got this morning,

this thread from this nurse.

This one is from a doctor, and I really want you to listen to what he's saying here.

Because I want you to put yourself in the situation

as it is in Italy.

Italy is second only to China, but they think Italy is second only to China because of the age of the people that are there.

One,

I may be repeating myself, but I want to fight this sense of security that I see outside of the epicenters, as if nothing was going to happen here.

The media in Europe are reassuring, politicians are reassuring, but there is little to be reassured of.

Now, this is a doctor who actually attached his name to this.

The other guy did not attach his name to it.

This guy has.

This is the English

translation of an ICU physician in Italy.

After much thought about whether I should or what to write about what's happening to us, I felt silence was not responsible.

I will therefore try to convey to people far from our reality what we are living in in Bergamo in these days of COVID-19 pandemic.

I understand

I need not to create panic, but when the message of the dangerousness of what is happening is not reaching people, I shudder.

I watched myself with some amazement the reorganization of the entire hospital in the last seven days.

When our current enemy was still in the shadow, the wards slowly emptied.

Elective activities elsewhere were interrupted, intensive care freed up to create as many beds possible.

All of this rapid transformation brought an atmosphere of silence and surreal emptiness to the corridors of my hospital that we did not yet understand.

We just waited for a war that had yet to begin, and many, including me, were not so sure it would ever come with such ferocity.

I still remember my night on call a week ago when I was waiting for the results of a swab.

When I think about it, my anxiety over one possible case seems almost ridiculous and unjustified.

Now that I've seen what's happening.

Well, the situation is now dramatic, to say the least.

Now, remember, that was his attitude seven days ago.

The war has literally exploded, and battles are uninterrupted day and night.

But now that need for beds has arrived in all of its drama.

One of the

one after the other, the departments that have been emptied fill up in an impressive pace.

The boards with the names of the patients or different colors depending on the operating unit are now all red, and instead of surgery, you see diagnosis, which is always the damn same, bilateral, interstitial

pneumonia.

Now, explain to me which flu virus causes such a rapid drama.

And while there are still people who boast about not being afraid afraid by ignoring directions, protesting because their normal routine is temporarily put in crisis, the epidemiology disaster is taking place, and there are no surgeons, urologists, orthopedists.

We are all only doctors who suddenly have become part of a single team to face this tsunami that has now overwhelmed us.

Cases are multiplying.

We arrive at the rate of fifteen to twenty admissions per day, all for the same reason.

The results of the swab now come one after another, positive, positive, positive.

And suddenly, our emergency rooms are collapsing.

Reasons for the access always the same.

Fever and breathing difficulties, fever and cough, respiratory failure.

Radiology reports always the same.

Bilateral

pneumonia.

Bilateral pneumonia.

Bilateral pneumonia.

All need to be hospitalized.

Someone Someone already

waiting to be intubated and go to intensive care.

For others, it's too late.

Every ventilator has become like gold.

Those in operating theaters have now suspended their non-urgent activity just to become intensive care doctors in places where they did not exist before.

The staff is exhausted.

I see the tiredness on the faces that I didn't know what it was, despite the fact that we were all working exhausting workloads, but I saw the solidarity of all of us who never failed to go to our internist colleagues and asks what can I do for you right now?

Doctors who move beds and transfer patients, the administrator that gives therapies instead of nurses, nurses with tears in their eyes because they can't save everyone, and the vital parameters of the several patients at the same time

that all reveal

an already marked destiny.

There are no more shifts, there are no more hours, social life is suspended for all of us.

We no longer see our families for fear of infecting them.

Some of us have already become infected despite all of the safety protocols.

That's from one of the leading doctors

in one of the best areas

of Italy.

What's coming here

may be the same.

What's coming here, you must not panic.

You must do what the CDC

is telling us to do.

Self-isolate if you can.

Work from home if you can.

Don't go out if you can.

We're struggling with schools right now.

People are thinking that schools are a trip line, that, oh, when the school is canceled, well, then that'll be different.

But there's a reason they're not canceling schools.

And I'll tell you about that coming up in just a minute.

10 seconds, station 90.

Welcome to the program.

We're going to get some politics here in just a second.

Let me just get through the scary part of

today's show.

I mean, I don't know about you, but that was, I mean, I read that early this morning, and that is,

it's like we're in a movie, you know, which is kind of the theme of the show tonight at 9 o'clock is people say, I've never seen this before.

I've never seen this before.

You have.

It's just been in all of the scariest movies you've ever seen.

And that's what's causing us to panic.

It doesn't end the way that those movies always end.

Okay?

So you have to.

If there isn't someone who comes in and saves us all at the end,

is that what you're saying?

Are you saying at the end of the movie the hero doesn't come in and

find the solution and figure out?

Oh, it's actually just got to put like Ajax in a syringe and that'll cure everyone.

Putting Ajax in the syringe would cure everybody, Dr.

Mengele.

So tonight, you don't want to miss this program tonight.

I'll tell you and show you why you are feeling the way you are and then what you need to do.

But

the former pandemic advisor for Donald Trump says we are now about 10 days away because of these large clusters that COVID-19 is going to just

devastate our hospitals.

I hope we get one thing out of this.

Nationalism is not a good thing.

You know, just

blind flag-waving nationalism is not good.

However, what Donald Trump has been talking about is not just blind, flag-waving nationalism.

It is, let's make sure that we take care of things in our own country and we're not beholden to everyone else.

Do you know that we get, I think, 100% of our IV bags come from Puerto Rico?

Well, guess what was just wiped out in Puerto Rico?

That factory that makes those IV bags.

We should not be making IV bags in one place only.

98%

of our medicine comes from either the raw materials or, in the cases of all antibiotics, all come from China.

That's That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

The one thing that we need to do is make sure that we can make these things here at home, that the supply line is a little closer to your house.

And we also need to understand that if you've been out and you're sick,

Your kids are starting to get ill.

Don't panic.

First of all,

call your doctor.

Don't go in.

Call your doctor.

Make sure that your doctor knows that you're coming in.

The testing is most likely not going to be done until you really start to have the symptoms of COVID-19.

But don't overwhelm the medical community by going in and saying, I need that test right now because my kids have been in school and somebody's got a cold and I think it might be COVID-19.

Don't overwhelm the system.

We all have to do our part, pull together, and support our medical community.

This is a Joe Biden.

Nice.

It's very stirring.

Don't you think?

Well,

I think it's very appropriate.

They're trying so hard, and if they could just remember all the notes, they'd be able to just bang it out.

But it fills me

with great confidence.

And it looks like Joe Biden is

the man of the hour.

It's like he's the guy for the Democrats.

There's even talk that Bernie might drop out before the debate on Sunday night.

Now, it's hard to believe because there's a lot of important states coming up next week, but maybe he sees the writing on the wall because he's behind it.

There's no way.

Okay, so I think there's a couple of things going on.

First of all, and I mean this sincerely,

to put these two men who he's got, he has health problems.

He has heart problems.

Joe Biden, I don't know if he's the healthiest guy.

Maybe it's just in his head, but he doesn't strike me as the healthiest guy.

Donald Trump is like, I don't know what he's got in his running through his genes, but he's, I mean, he looks like a 20-year-old.

He's still in his 70s.

He's still in his 70s.

It's dangerous for all of them.

No, it's dangerous for all of them, but they should stop right now.

Now, I know Donald Trump doesn't want to because I think that he gets a lot, but Mr.

President, we'd like you to be the president,

in the next four years.

Please, please don't take chances with your health.

And I think Bernie Sanders, if he drops out, I think it's because of coronavirus.

Because there's no way that guy's not going to finish all the way to the end.

He's always done that.

He's not worried about money or anything else.

He's on a mission.

And I think that yesterday he canceled some appearances.

You know, he is prime food for the coronavirus, prime eating.

And did not talk to supporters after an election night, which is, I mean, even the lowest-level candidates usually come out and do something like that.

Now, they did cancel the rally, so that was part of it.

But he's, I mean, look,

he does not have a very obvious path here to win this election anymore anyway.

It would be a massive event type of thing.

Joe Biden drops out because he's sick, right?

Like, it's that type of situation for him to win.

And multiple people, you know, big party officials are saying, maybe we just cancel all the rest of these primaries.

And Biden's got this thing won anyway.

You can't do that?

That shouldn't be a thing.

You can't do that.

I don't think you can do that.

The Republicans canceled their primaries just because they thought Donald Trump was going to win.

They're like, ah, he's probably going to win, so just cancel him.

They did.

But he can't win.

But he's running unopposed.

I'm with you on that idea.

I mean, he's running unopposed.

You can't go 953 to 1.

No, but something like that.

middle of the is it a good premise no to set up for future elections no it's not how does someone ever challenge you if you're canceling the primaries in these no it's that's the kind of republic kind of stuff that's not a good idea and especially you know

you could make the case now that joe biden has a commanding lead but it's not over yes i think it's not over you it it is over for the democrat for the republicans it's over i mean there's no way anyone's going to win but donald trump there's no i mean the republican this is a legitimate legitimate reason to cancel these things.

And

for the Republican ones, I would totally cancel them at this point.

Like, he's already wanting the thing anyway.

Here's where this doesn't make sense.

If they're going to cancel people's ability to go out and vote,

tell me and explain to me what Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats said yesterday about closing the Capitol.

We're the last ones to go.

The captain never leaves the ship.

Because they're now saying,

hey all you old people you should probably go home and not meet with lobbyists and everyone else traveling in from all over the country and the world go home congress can work this is the best news ever and should always be the case it should always be the case it should never go back yeah um you uh go home do all of your stuff from your district stay at home we do all right we're the captain of the ship and we'll go down with the ship that's insane now if you're not willing to do that,

why are you willing just to cancel the vote?

You're willing to cancel the vote, but not close the Capitol.

And they haven't done it yet, we should be clear.

It's just been suggested by party officials.

And I think part of it is they're just saying, Bernie, get out.

Get out.

Get out because this is, you're just costing us money.

It's a hassle.

Bernie doesn't want that, of course.

And honestly, if you're Bernie Sanders right now, do you, at the very least, not just do what Tulsi Gabbard is doing?

She's not doing any appearances.

She's not doing much of anything.

She's just kind of in the race still.

She just exists.

Right.

If you're Bernie, why would you do that?

Biden could easily just drop out at some point.

We have no idea.

I have to tell you, Vince Flynn and I were working on a story together, and we talked about when he was alive about writing something together.

And we just worked on this story together off and on,

not serious about writing it, just saying, someday we should write this.

And it was about an election where it was a very controversial election

and

the Democrats were losing.

I mean, this exact scenario, I just thought of it just now,

where

the candidates,

all the other candidates, start to die mysteriously.

Now, we didn't have the coronavirus in it or anything, but they, and it was one other candidate that was in league with the really dark forces that were killing off these other candidates.

And And some dark horse just happened to appear at the very end, going, my gosh, we have lost so many people.

And,

you know, for the sake of our brothers, we all have to unite.

And I'm the one to lead.

And how he won the election that way.

It was actually a woman.

I don't know if you could imagine who that woman might have been

based on.

But

I got to go back and look at that because it's, I mean, you could see this happening, not as some, you know,

nobody's killing anybody off, but you could see this happening where

you could lose Bernie Sanders.

You could lose Joe Biden.

You could lose Donald Trump.

They're all targeted in that age.

And

meeting and greeting with crowds.

I mean, I'm surprised that Bernie Sanders doesn't have it.

I'm surprised that Joe Biden doesn't have it.

Who's meeting and shaking hands and speaking in front of bigger crowds other than those three?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And when Bernie does drop out, and it looks inevitable, it leaves it to a guy whose mental faculties are

really questionable.

You say something like that.

You say something like that, and I am grabbing my AR-13.

Are you?

Oh, I'm mad.

I'll get it.

You know, if you put an AR-2 with that, you'll have an AR-15.

Oh, my God.

That would be all dangerous.

I might get my AR-2,

okay?

And

I might get my M-18 out.

I I mean, the guy, he's doing so badly, and he's challenging everybody who says anything he doesn't like to a fight.

In that conversation with the auto worker yesterday, when he called him,

you know, we said he was full of S, and then he actually challenged him to go out.

You want to go outside?

What?

Are we in eighth grade now?

You're going to meet me behind the

I'll meet you at the bus stop and we'll do

school.

You saw both sides of the Biden that currently exists in 2020 yesterday.

And

if he can do one of them and not do the other, he's got a chance to win the election.

He does.

Part one is what Pat was just talking about.

You're walking through a factory.

Someone says something that you find to be insulting or aggressive, and he can't stop himself from challenging into a fight.

And he can't.

I mean, it's crazy.

Instantly pissed and not listening to his handlers.

You know that handler got their head handed to him.

You've got to stop him from doing stuff like that.

What am I going to do?

Yeah, he's going to do it.

What am I going to do?

I'm going to pull him off like he's an old dawdling old fool.

No, I can't do anything.

I told him, okay, we're going to go now.

We're going to go.

He said no.

And he just, he's just an idiot.

Yep.

Just an idiot.

And it's even worse.

That was just an issue.

Isn't worse when people come after him about Hunter and his issues.

He cannot control himself by situations.

By the way, before you give the other side of Joe Biden, let me just give you this news.

Joe Biden is still out there fighting, you know, because he wants to be president.

He's still on the campaign trail.

Do we have the, do we, do we have the, do we have the hero music from Profiles in Courage?

Yeah, here it is.

So I got to give you a profile in Courage.

Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden.

For the sake of everybody.

For the sake of your health, Pat.

Your health, Stu.

Oh, wow.

Your health, Mr.

John Q.

Public.

Hunter Biden is going the extra mile.

He has said, because of the coronavirus and because of the scare that's going on, the pandemic that could come to your house, he

will not go to court and

talk about

his responsibility as a dad of that stripper's baby.

He's not going to do it.

He can't do it.

He can't do it.

The coronavirus pandemic

is just too dangerous for him to appear in court right now.

Bless his heart.

Oh, my gosh.

You don't see courage like...

Okay, stop.

All right.

The other Joe Biden that could win if he shows up appeared last night.

Yeah, he was the guy making the speech off the prompter that was trying to

broaden the party and all of those things.

He stuck to the prompter.

He didn't make any major gaps.

And then he walked away.

and went back to his hotel room and went sleepy sleep and had a good night's sleep.

And hopefully he wakes wakes up today and he goes back and and just you know avoids those other situations because he doesn't have to do a lot to be competitive here the the race is very divided him just showing up just the idea of joe biden gets him at 47

i want to play the i want to play the uh the audio of him we're going to take a break and then we'll come back and maybe we'll play the audio of what he said just a little bit of it

because his tone was different.

Everything was different.

It wasn't that he just made a mistake.

He was trying to appear presidential.

And that's what the president needs to be right now.

Remember, the thing about Ronald Reagan, we were living in very scary times in the 1980s.

I remember working in Washington, D.C.

I'm 18 years old, and I'm on the air, and they shoot down KAL 007, and I can see the light of the Washington Monument, and I think,

I'm at ground zero.

I mean,

it was terrifying times.

But what what got us through those times was everybody used to say, I feel like it's my dad or my grandpa talking to me.

I feel it's like my, not in a bad way, like Joe Biden is like, I feel like my grandpa.

Where are my keys?

What do you mean?

I've been driving to work.

Dad, you haven't driven to work.

You haven't worked in 25 years.

I did it just yesterday.

Not that kind of grandpa, but one that was assuring you and just saying, it's all going to be okay.

That's what these men need to be.

And Joe Biden was that temporarily last night.

All right, I want to play this audio for for you here in a second.

But first, let's get a recap of what happened.

We're going to talk a little bit about politics in the election at the top of next hour, but a quick recap of what happened in case you missed it last night.

Looks like Joe Biden now is.

Oh, my gosh.

Oh my gosh, I'm dying.

Sorry, a little cough there.

Yeah, so Mississippi, he was expected to blow out.

Sanders did so in major fashion.

He was expected to have a solid win in Missouri, wound up really blowing him out in Missouri.

Very close election expected in Michigan.

Instead, what you got was a Biden win by 16.

That's huge.

I mean,

another win in Idaho where he won by, I think it was 6.

North Dakota looks like Sanders might win that one.

Not a huge turnout states.

It was a caucus state.

There's only 14 locations in the entire state where you could vote.

It was sort of a bizarre contest.

The other one that's very, very close is Washington.

Bernie Sanders currently leads 32.3 to 32.1%.

percent.

The issue there, though, is the way these states work, unlike the Republican primary, a lot of them are, they're not, they're not, none of them are, in the Democratic side, are winner-take-all.

So, it might be a huge deal for you to win in the Republican primary like this.

What's going to happen here is they're going to split the delegates statewide almost exactly.

So, it's not going to make any difference for Bernie Sanders to win or lose this state.

It's going to be basically the same result.

So,

another terrible night.

He needed a huge night.

Yeah.

He got a terrible night.

So,

and the bigger challenge for him is the next six states are all pretty much terrible for Sanders as well, including things like Florida, huge delegate states where he is already polling behind by 40 and 50 points.

I mean, again, unless Joe Biden decides to leave the race because he doesn't feel well or does a 45-minute speech on the virtue of hamsters for no reason that anyone can explain, it's hard to see any actual path for Bernie Sanders.

This is unlike when Joe Biden was behind and he had lost those first few states and it didn't look good for him.

And you could say, well, you know, look, his polling is still holding up largely in South Carolina.

If he can get a big win there, maybe he can turn it into something.

And that wound up happening.

But you could doubt that path at that time.

Here, there's not really even a path for Sanders.

It's almost him.

He would have to not only have a huge night and surprise in many, many states, but then also win 60% of the vote going forward.

It would have to be unforeseen circumstances that

don't seem possible.

I am going to write, I just wrote down something that just came to mind, and it is something that I am not willing.

There are many things that I believe that I shall never say, but I shall never say the things I do not believe.

That you can open up after the election.

But it's something, a prediction that I am not willing to say on the air.

Don't open it.

Just keep it

and keep it with you.

And

don't open it.

Okay, sorry.

Don't open it.

I don't want you.

It's

something that just came to me, and I feel like, wow, that is probably accurate.

I'm going to take this with a piece of tape and write, do not open till election and put it up on our big board over here.

And we'll just keep it there and it'll taunt us for the next few months.

Right, okay.

All right, we're going to talk about the election, what happened last night, more on the coronavirus, and some laughs laughs as well, all coming up in the next hour.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

We were just talking about ransomware

and the dark web and how you can have things stolen from you on the dark web.

One of the big things that is on the dark web, you will find your name many times on the dark web in information, including including your title somebody then on the dark web buys that and then they go to a bank with your title and they take out a loan in in your name with your house as collateral and then you're stuck with it you're evicted you lose your home there's nobody watching this home title lock is the only one and that's because they are at the the virtual vault door

and they're the only ones that can watch this.

This is an epidemic according to the FBI in New York.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

Well, looks like we're going to have the presidential nominee be Joe Biden with all of his gaffes.

Hold on.

Hold on to your AR-14 and maybe even your 15

because he may be the presidential nominee.

Bernie Sanders canceled any of his appearances yesterday.

Is he on the verge of dropping out?

Is this a coronavirus fear?

And what's really coming our way with coronavirus and how the average person thinks with Nick DiPaulo in one minute?

This is the Glenbeck program.

All right, I want you to understand one thing before we get into the meat of the show this hour.

I want you to understand one thing about the coronavirus.

We are at the beginning of this.

I want you to mentally prepare that this is not going away, that this is going to go away some point, but we are 50 days behind China.

And I'm going to put that into perspective for you here in about a half an hour.

We are 50 days behind China.

You go back and look at what we were talking about in the headlines coming out of China 50 days ago.

That's where we are today.

So it's going to get much, much worse.

I urge you to do more than going to Costco.

This is not a snow event.

This could be something that could keep you in your home and keep you without, you know, yes, even toilet paper, for a while.

They are now in Italy having to deliver supplies to the border of towns so people can come out and get them.

It's something that you need to be prepared for, and it doesn't have to be today.

The reason why I say that is because my Patriot Supply has the things that you need.

Now, my Patriot Supply and every other emergency food place that gives you all of these things, a hundred times normal at least, is happening right now with their volume.

They have expanded.

They are going to different places to make all of the emergency food kits.

They are going to run maybe four to eight weeks behind on delivery, but we're still going to be dealing with this in four to eight weeks.

So please go to my Patriot Supply right now and get a two or four week, get a two or four month

emergency food kit.

Now is the time to do it.

Delivery is going to be delayed, but don't be left without it.

It'll be delivered right to your door.

It'll last up to 25 years in storage, so you will be prepared for not only what's coming, but the next crisis.

We don't know the full scope of this, but please prepare now.

Go to preparewithglenn.com.

That's preparewithglen.com.

I have to thank you so much for listening and being prepared for all of these things.

We have the most prepared audience, and I am very, very grateful for that.

Well, our election coverage continues now as we kick it into high gear.

We have all of the stats and analysis from Mr.

Steve Bregier coming up in just a minute, otherwise known as Stu, our executive producer, who loves to crunch the numbers.

But we also have Nick DiPaolo, who is joining us now.

And Nick,

I know you just couldn't get enough of what was happening last night

with the election.

I'm sure.

I loved, you know,

Biden's everything that the Trump hate has accused Trump of being.

He's not fit to be president mentally.

He told the woman to shush after he told that guy he's full of S.

He told the woman to shush.

I know.

He's a misogynist.

He's a plagiarizer.

He's an angry old white guy.

And he's everything that they accuse.

Remember what he said about Obama being eloquent and clean?

And he made jokes about Indians at gas stations?

He's everything that they say Trump is.

May I just say, if you're watching the Blaze TV, you might have noticed that

you seem to have Nick a

Kim Jong-un's head on a pike next to you.

Oh, I put this up when we do Corona News.

I'll take it to

you.

I know it's the wrong country, but close enough for my fans.

Oh, my God, she's coughing.

Oh, my gosh, he's coughing.

The coronavirus panic.

The last time you had me on, I'm like, oh, they're just blowing this out of proportion.

Now I'm a little bit of a bully.

Everybody's panicking about Italy.

I mean, the average age is 78 in Italy.

All they do is kiss and hug when they meet.

That's no surprise.

Right.

The Chinese invented pasta.

I don't know how that fits in, but come on.

I will tell you that what's happening in Italy, people don't understand why it's necessarily taking Italy

by storm.

Italy is the oldest population in all of Europe.

And this is hitting the older populations really, really, really hard.

But what you're seeing today, we went over some of the

doctors that have come out and said, let me describe the situation here.

It is truly frightening, Nick.

I mean, they're saying, if you have a stroke, don't come to the hospital.

You have a heart attack, we can't help you.

Well, they're just preparing us if Bernie gets in.

That's how healthcare is going to go.

It's the same thing, although he's not going to get in.

But I'm getting mixed signals, Glenn.

I'm not that nervous.

I can't get nervous over a pandemic that can be cured with Purel and washing your hands.

You know, I mean,

I'm not that nervous.

If you're in your late 80s, you know, stay where you are.

It's not like they're out there partying anyways.

But how is this worse?

I know.

exponentially it's going to grow and stuff, but how is this worse than a regular flu that kills people?

So here's people.

Okay, so here's the problem.

It's not the fact that it's killing so many people, although it has the potential potential of doing that.

What the problem is is our healthcare systems all around the world, not ours just alone, all around the world are not prepared for 40% of the population to be sick at the same time.

And so we don't have the medicine, we don't have the supplies, and certainly

with the number of elderly people, we just don't have the beds in the hospital and

the breathing machines and everything else that are going to be required to handle so many people.

And so that's what they're doing.

They're trying to say, stay home because the health care system will come under such strain.

We will lose people not just from coronavirus, but from heart attacks, from strokes, from diabetes, from people who have kidney failure.

All of those things are going to compound, and we won't have the staff nor the medicine to be able to deal with it all at once.

Okay, so the old people go a few years early.

I'm just looking out for myself.

This is how I am.

I'm

not sure if you've checked in the mirror, but you're right in the median age of being seriously ill.

Thanks for pointing that out, guy with white hair and a white beard.

You should be in a bubble right now.

No, I know.

It's funny.

I keep in my head, I'm 28 years old.

You're exactly right.

And I start looking at the math.

I know.

And they're saying 60 and up.

And I have the attitude of a 78-year-old.

But you know what's funny, Glenn?

I was in Chicago two weekends ago.

Sold out both shows, by the way.

I shook 150 hands.

I get done doing that.

I walk in the green room and I go, whose slice of pizza is that?

And they go, you can have it.

I pick it up and eat it.

I woke it down.

I don't wash my hands.

And I say, oh, this is baloney.

But then I get home on Monday.

I wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and my teeth is chattering.

And my body's I have a wicked like a wicked chills and then I wake up two hours later my head is soaked and that went on for about three days oh you might if that would have happened today you would have absolutely been convinced you had coronavirus yeah I was and I was all cocky going this is all blown out of proportion right so I go to urgent care and they test me yeah testing is taking your temperature and sticking a swab up my nose the guy goes that's where the that's where the flu lives and I'm like oh it lives in Wuhan what are you talking about it's my

and it comes back negative for the regular flu.

And I said, okay, so

I must have a common cold or something.

But

I've been, and I got to be honest, I've been under the weather since I got back from Chicago a little bit.

But they said I didn't even have the regular flu.

So I'm confused because now I'm reading stuff like, well, yeah, well, five days later, it can get worse and all this.

But I got to get on a plane this week.

You know what I do for a living?

I have to get on a plane.

That might be the best place.

I was wondering with you where your tripwire was.

What has to happen before you like, I'm not going to go out into crowds and shake hands because your money is made there.

We keep going back and forth on we have to be here at the studios or it will dramatically change our product.

But we also know if we're all sick, it will also stop the product from being made.

And so we're debating whether or not, you know,

what's the next tripwire?

What's the thing that says, okay, you know what?

We all have to stay and work from home.

Well, for me personally, if I stop bleeding from the eyes and ears on stage,

then I'll tell the 12 people there to get out.

Right.

Or just, come on in, you're already infected.

Come on in.

Yeah, I'm selling DiPaulo surgical masks after the show.

Right.

Yeah, but

I'm going to get on a plane this weekend.

And,

you know, I'm going to Baltimore.

So now my longevity numbers are going down between coronavirus and gunplay.

I don't know if I'm going to see much of that.

And Baltimore is just riddled.

Baltimore is one of the cities in America, I think, the only city in America, that has a bigger population of rats than people.

That's true.

That's exactly true.

Yeah, it is.

It's just a Petri dish of something bad to kill you.

But that's

so germ-infested that the coronavirus can't even penetrate Baltimore.

You know what I mean?

They're immune.

Right.

The coronavirus comes and the rats eat it.

Look, I come from longevity.

My grandfather's 94, my grandmother.

And so I didn't wear a condom in the 80s at the height of the AIDS epidemic.

I had a blast, and here I am.

So I'm not going to let a bat

scare me.

And I looked good back in the 80s.

You know what I mean?

I was

a young way.

Oh, dude, I got so many women.

I look like a bad person.

That doesn't necessarily mean you were good looking.

It might mean you had bad eyesight.

Well, that's true.

A couple shots of Jack and those two girls.

And everybody's like, those tens turn it, those fours turn into tens.

You're a beautiful woman.

Dude, back off.

I swear, Vaddy, you were a woman.

You still are pretty, beautiful.

I did very well.

I didn't look like Butterfuco's dad my whole life.

And

I look, what am I going to do, Glenn?

I'm lucky I got this show because this does bring in a little bit of money thanks to people like you and people who contribute at NPR.

I'll get you your tote bag later.

But the planes, I'm getting on a plane, and that looks like the best place to be isolated right now because all the airports seem to be empty.

It's going to be me and like three other people on a plane to Baltimore this weekend.

So I'm not worried, but I see what you're saying as far as overcrowding at the hospitals and stuff, but it's a good time to go to the mall.

Nobody's there.

I went into Dunkin' Donuts, nobody in front of me.

I have to tell you, I have a friend, I have a couple

who said, we're traveling the world right now.

But that's Connie Chung and her husband.

No, no, no.

That's Connie Chung and Jerry.

No, a friend of mine actually said, and they said they were just in Paris, and they said, no one is anywhere.

You can do anything.

You know, well, except for shop or go to a restaurant or anything that's open.

If you want to see everything,

I know.

If you want to see everything outdoors, you can do it right now.

And there's not a soul around anywhere.

Once again, the French showing their courage.

They really are the best, aren't they?

We're going to have to save them from this, too.

All right, Nick DiPaolo from NickDip.com.

Where are you going to be this weekend?

Magoombies in Timonium, Maryland, Friday and Saturday night.

Don't let the name fool you.

It's a beautiful club.

Magoombies?

I know.

Every time I'm on with you, it can't be the Ritz Theater.

It has to be Skidmutts and Buffalo,

you know, the rubber room.

No, no, no.

It's a great club.

That sounds McGoogie.

Sounds great.

All right.

And yeah.

Thank you so much.

Bring your own McGoose.

Thank you very much, Nick.

I appreciate it.

All right, Glenn.

All right.

Let's take a quick break for a minute for our sponsor.

Have you ever been stepping up to the stage to give your much-anticipated TED Talk on why the Bob Ross Chia Pet is the most psychologically pleasing American product on the market?

This actually sounds like something we've probably done.

It's true.

Only to realize that the notes you loaded into the teleprompter are from your high school political fan fiction fiction novel about William Wilperforce.

Has that ever happened to you, Glenn?

No.

No.

No.

No, but it does sound.

It does sound like it could have happened and I just blocked it.

It could be embarrassing if it did happen, but not as embarrassing as having to deal with E.D.

10 seconds, station ID.

So I posted on my Instagram last night a painting that I just did.

I couldn't take the pundits anymore.

And so

I just get up from the TV and I just start painting.

And I painted a gas can.

And I posted it last night and I haven't finished it by far, but the reason why I posted it was because

I just felt like everybody's just pouring gasoline on everything right now.

Here's a fire, quick, hand me a can of gas.

What's happening right now with the way the press is trying to rope

Donald Trump into just the biggest disaster ever for the coronavirus is so wildly irresponsible, wildly irresponsible.

And anyone who is defending him just being the same kind of a dope where you're like, no, he is

Superman.

There's never a mistake.

That's stupid too.

Here's the worst thing we can do right now.

Talk about politics in the middle of this.

You know what?

There's going to come a time in maybe three months where we can all look at this and go, okay, here were the mistakes.

They're going to be mistakes.

I don't care unless Jesus becomes our president, they're going to be mistakes.

But it does nothing good for us to be arguing politics on this, and the press is reprehensible.

Let me give you this, Stu.

Explain this.

You know, everybody's like, well, look, we didn't have the tests out in time.

Well, okay, we didn't.

That's because we did say no to the WHO and their tests, which had a 30% false negative, false positive.

So 30%

who either had it or didn't have it walked out of the hospital thinking they had it or didn't, even though they did or they didn't.

It was

a big problem, obviously, the initial tests.

Big problem.

Okay.

So the United States, the CDC says, we're not going to take those tests.

We're going to develop our own.

Now, we had problems with the first batch as well.

We fixed it, and now those batches are going out.

Would it have been better to go with the WHO's test?

I don't know.

30% freak out rate?

I don't know.

Would it be better or worse?

I don't know.

Does it matter at this point?

What it matters is when we can all sit down after the panic and then we work out, okay, how did this happen?

But to yell and scream political stuff right now is just ridiculous.

Now, help me out.

The media is saying that

Donald Trump is the worst.

This is so mismanaged.

Let me give you this story.

California governor Gavin Newsom, do I need to remind you who he is?

Gave President Donald Trump and his administration full credit for an effective and satisfactory response to the growing coronavirus problem in his state.

This, according to Newsweek magazine, you know, that's practically the national review.

As the country deals with the continued shortage of available tests, the Trump administration has been criticized heavily by Democratic politicians and the media.

Newsom, however, is pleased with how Trump has handled the crisis.

Quote, we had a private conversation, he said.

We're going to do the right thing.

You have my support, all of our support, logistically and otherwise.

He said everything I could have hoped for, and we've had a very long conversation.

And every single thing he said, they followed through on.

What more do you want?

Hard to believe that Gavin Newsom would say that, even if it was true.

And here it is.

Exactly right.

You would almost be

you would expect him to say it was bad even if it was true.

Correct.

And here he is actually.

Exactly right.

Must have been really.

Exactly right.

Now, take his assessment and compare it to what Nancy Pelosi said.

Well, it's very sad, but I believe what we know about the Dow is that they want certainty.

They want confidence that there is a plan.

And I don't think we have a plan.

I think what's happening with the Dow is just a reflection of the lack of confidence.

And so we hope that what's coming out of the White House will be more consistent with the health care advisors, what they're putting forth.

We would hope that rather than name-calling, Trump would begin joining with his health care professionals who are advising him and the rest of us in a well-coordinated government agenda.

You want to call Gavin?

Because

the former mayor of San Francisco, who's now the

governor, said everything he did is what I hoped for.

Everything he said, he followed through on.

What else do you want?

What else do you want besides him to lose?

Right.

Of course, that's obviously the only thing the media cares about when it comes to the political ramifications of this.

And, you know,

they will be able to find things that don't go well through this process because that is the nature of it.

Every single country on earth has had these issues, some different than others, some worse than others.

But they're going to just pick apart any little thing that they can say

drops the slightest amount of blame on Trump and try to make it into a big deal, like they did with Bush and Katrina.

Yes.

You know, some of that criticism was maybe fair, but most of it was BS.

Most of it fell on the Democratic leadership of New Orleans.

Yes.

We were on the air, and you don't believe us?

Check it out.

I did a countdown a year before Katrina.

I said, these are the 10 most dangerous cities to live.

And everyone thought number one was going to be New York because of terrorism.

It wasn't.

The number one most dangerous city to live in in America a year before Katrina

was New Orleans.

Why?

Because they failed to heed all of the warnings since 1950.

And they did nothing.

And it was a corrupt government.

A year later, almost to the day, Katrina happens.

And who gets blamed?

The The federal government and George Bush?

What are you crazy?

Same thing is happening here.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

All right, so if you mow your lawn,

I want you to go to hustlerturf.com.

Hustler is probably a lawnmower that

you've never heard of.

They've been around.

In fact, they're the first people that made the zero turn lawnmowers where you don't have to, you know, it's just so much easier to

mow your lawn because it just, it'll pivot without tearing up your grass.

They've been making these lawnmowers commercially for forever, and they are the best.

I mean, they are built to last through anything.

They're commercial.

They decided a few years ago to start really looking at the residential market because they're, in my opinion, their lawnmower is way superior to anything else that is competitively priced, way superior, because they've been, you know, it's a company that's right here in the smack of America.

It was started by a grandfather, then the father took it, now the sons run it.

They have been doing this research and perfecting these machines since the early 1960s.

I want you to go right now, and if you're looking for a lawnmower, go to hustlerturf.com, hustlerturf.com.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Really glad that you're here.

There's a couple of things that I want to share with you today.

First, Stu, have you seen anything that

has given you confidence that you think might happen

in our federal government with a

tax plan or anything to bail people out.

For instance, in Italy, they've just said no mortgages.

It's a mortgage holiday.

That'll help everybody who owns a house.

You suddenly don't have to pay your mortgage.

What happens to the banks that own mortgages?

Don't know.

Is the government just paying the banks out there?

I don't know.

I mean, the problem is, is when you get up to this level, you have to look for the quickest route to everybody.

But if it means they're going to bail out the banks, then they have to bail out the banks.

But at least they're starting with the mortgages.

You know what I mean?

Where instead, oh, we're going to bail out the banks.

That doesn't help anybody on the ground.

That didn't help me in 2008.

Did it help you?

Well, the banking system staying together was the thought there, which is obviously part of our financial stability.

Correct.

But it didn't help you struggle when you were struggling and you couldn't make it and you couldn't make your payment and your maybe your business failed because of 2008

bailing out the banking system oh great it's like hey everybody stay home man we're gonna bail out all of the toll booths in the on the highways that's not helping yeah that's not helping yeah the issue with some of the things proposed like the payroll tax i did a thing on students america last night about how i think it's basically would be the greatest thing of all time to get rid of that stupid terrible tax especially the social security part of it like it's the worst the worst worst tax, the way it's designed is terrible.

Went through the whole thing.

And so I'm very much behind Trump's proposal there, but I'm behind it because I think it's a good policy.

Whether it's a great stimulus idea for an economy that's going into a situation where a lot of hourly workers are going to be home and not able to work, so their tax saving is going to be relatively limited.

Yeah.

It may or may not be a problem.

Well, there's a combination of things that we could do.

You know, you could do

that.

The payroll tax would be a boost to the businesses and to the people.

You know, by taking that payroll tax, I mean, the added benefit on this is we'll never go back to it.

People will riot when they see how much money they actually make and compared to what it is after payroll.

They'll never go back.

Never.

It's the best thing that could happen.

The next, I would assume, would be do a combination of a mortgage holiday

and

a check, like George W.

Bush did, for everybody who doesn't have, if you don't have,

you know, any kind of sick leave that's paid for or whatever, we'll send you a check of $600 this month or whatever it is.

That's what you're thinking they're going to attempt to do?

Yes.

Yes.

Anything that gets into bailouts bothers me a great deal because now you're picking winners and losers.

It's just got to be universal.

Yeah.

I mean, we should also throw in that you don't have to throw money at every one of these things.

This one is.

I do think that the control

is a major act.

Like, I am for very limited government.

I want them doing almost nothing.

I do believe, though, that

an epidemic is one that they should.

There you go.

So I think that there's an argument there to be made.

And I don't think that there's any restraint on either side of the aisle to do anything other than throw ungodly amounts of money because it's going to be a serious issue.

So you asked me before what I think can actually get done, and the answer to that, I think, is spending, right?

What they'll actually do.

There may be a combination of some tax-saving stimulus types of things, but the Democrats will agree to large amounts of spending.

And the Republicans, I think, will also agree to large amounts of spending.

So likely what we'll get is more spending.

That's usually not happening.

And that's really bad.

That's really bad because that requires the government then again to pick winners and losers and hire people.

I don't work for the government.

I don't want to work for the government.

This is not the bank's fault.

This isn't anyone's fault.

This is an act of God.

So

how do we...

How do we navigate these waters?

We haven't seen pandemics.

I mean, there used to be pandemics all the time, and you'd be quarantined, and the world was prepared for it.

Well, because of modern medicine, thanks to the capitalist system, we don't have these kinds of pandemics anymore.

We don't have outbreaks where we all have to be quarantined.

So we haven't seen this in a long time.

So our system is not made for this.

So now, how do we navigate this?

I think this is a really important conversation to have without playing any political cards because

there's trouble coming.

I mean, look at the Dow.

Down again, 935 points.

It was up yesterday.

How much?

12 or 1,300.

Over 1,300 that much.

I mean,

it's just

going to be a lot of time.

It's just going up and up, up, and down.

It's just a yo-yo because we don't know what's coming yet.

Now, with that being said,

I said to you, look,

we are at the beginning of this.

You think you've been dealing with it for a long time, but America really hasn't been.

The rest of the world has been.

China dealt with it.

Now China is back on their feet.

China is now starting.

They're waiting for the double whammy, which we will not have.

The first hit was the actual virus, and it locked everybody down in very authoritarian ways.

And they stopped it, people died, yada, yada.

Their businesses closed down, and they couldn't ship anything.

Well, now they're all returning to work, and almost all of them are back to work now.

The problem is they're about to be hit with the second whammy, and that is now nobody wants their products because nobody in Europe, the rest of the world, and and soon America, we're not going out and buying things.

Okay, so

when our factories are down, they're hit a second time.

So that's very bad for them.

We'll be hit once here.

I told you that what's coming is still on the horizon, and I told you we're about 50 days behind China.

So let's go back to the calendar and look.

56 days was January 15.

China says human transmission not ruled out in Wuhan coronavirus update.

That was the headline.

50 days ago, 56 days ago, that was a headline.

China says human transmission not ruled out in Wuhan coronavirus.

That was only 50 days.

Now think about what's happened since then.

54 days ago, China reports second death.

Second death from Wuhan coronavirus as Thailand, Thailand confirms.

Whoa, whoa.

Did they call it the racist name Wuhan virus?

Yeah, they did.

That is what racists do.

Well, they were all racist.

They were assigning this to the Chinese.

Things were different back in the old days of January.

Ilon Omar told me specifically that this was racist.

Nationalities are viruses, do not have nationalities,

except for all the other ones that we've named after places.

51 days ago,

these were the headlines: China reports third death from Wuhan virus.

I know they did it again.

51 days ago, three U.S.

airports to check passengers for deadly Chinese coronavirus.

Now, do you remember?

Three U.S.

airports to check passengers.

Do you remember that's the first action with Donald Trump where he's like, hey, let's look at who's flying in and everything else.

And everybody was calling him a racist.

That was 51 days ago.

Jeez.

January 21st, China is trying to stop the spread of a deadly new virus at the worst possible time of the year because it was their new year, remember?

50 days ago, China warns officials not to cover up spread of Wuhan virus.

That was 50 days ago.

This is where we're at right now.

We're starting to see the first cases and the first deaths.

And we're starting to see, oh, what's the government doing?

The government's starting to say, should we close this down?

Should we close it?

That's where we are.

50 days.

Now, we'll continue to go through this, and you will see.

I should post this.

Maybe I can put it into consumable form maybe today or tomorrow.

But you start to see, let me go down

45 days, 44 days ago.

China says Wuhan virus, unlike SARS, is infectious during its incubation period.

A coronavirus whistleblower nurse says China has 90,000 sick.

Do you remember that?

That was 44 days ago.

This seems like it's been going on forever.

That was 44 days ago.

The reason why I tell you this is because look at China today.

44 days ago, it felt a little like it feels like in America.

You don't know what's coming.

You don't know what it's going to be like.

We're all going to die.

Quick, buy toilet paper.

Quick,

make sure you have a way to cut yourself out of the house because

they're going to start

welding you into your home with your steel door in China.

That's what the world was thinking then.

Now in China, they're going back to work.

Things are normal.

They've lost a lot of people, but it has gone back to normal.

This is the beginning of this period now in America.

And what you need to understand is the reason why you are seeing the things that you've never seen happen before

is because this will infect so many people.

It is not the death rate, it is the infection rate.

If people need fluids, if people just need basic things from a doctor,

because it hit China, We are already facing shortages of medical supplies all around the world because they come from China.

We are facing shortages in our hospitals of certain things like masks,

which keep the doctors and the nurses safe.

Don't believe any of this bull crap that masks aren't effective.

Really?

Then why do all of the doctors need them?

They're not effective.

It's mostly bull crap for

you

because you're not face to face with the coronavirus every day.

You're not having sick people cough in your face every day.

They're doing it with multiple people and they cannot get sick.

Most likely, you will, through the course of this thing,

you will most likely get sick.

And I'm talking about the next year or so.

You will most likely get sick, but you will I had a somebody who was an expert in

in the effects effects of nuclear war.

And I'll never forget what she said to me when we were talking about,

you know, geez, you kind of want to be at ground zero.

And she's like, no, you don't.

Why would you want to be at ground zero?

I was like, I don't want to live like that.

And she said, here's the most surprising thing.

Everybody looks at nuclear war and they're like, I don't want to live in the Holocaust afterwards.

She said, most people will survive.

Life will go on.

It's not like the movies.

And that's the point of tonight's program that I don't want you to miss.

Tonight, there is the sum of all fears.

And where is that fear coming from?

Tonight we answer it.

We show you the path out of the fear and out of the next 60 days.

It's the sum of all fears.

What is it that you're afraid of?

So given the choice between the easy way and the hard way, most people will always choose the easy way, right?

That's why given the choice any day of the week,

I would rather sit than jog.

I'm not jog.

Get the car.

Glenn, it's down the hall.

I know.

Can we get a small car?

Unfortunately, this kind of attitude spills over into the cyber world, as we have told you, why we have cybercrime.

It's easy to take

someone else's stuff much easier than it is to actually work for it yourself.

Politicians learned this a long time ago, but when you're using an unsecured public Wi-Fi, even if it's password protected, you are vulnerable.

That's why you need Norton 360 in your life.

It is an easy-to-use solution to the problem that cyber criminals have of stealing your information from your devices.

I've told you the last couple of days that when I was in Washington, D.C.

at CPAC, something really, really disturbing happened in my wife and I in our life.

And

we doubled down on all of our security.

And the first thing I did was...

reach out to Norton.

I had their basic package.

I said, I want all the bells and whistles.

I want everything everything to protect all of our devices at home.

The world can be a very scary place.

If you have Norton, you most likely are going to have somebody watching it, and you're most likely not going to have somebody do this to you.

this is the glimpse program

All right, coming up in a minute, all of the election news that you need.

Give me a quick snapshot of all the results here, Stu.

Sure.

Let's do that.

Mississippi, not a surprise.

80 to 16 in favor of Joe Biden.

Exactly what predicted.

Yeah.

A little higher.

Maybe even a more wide margin.

Missouri, 60 to 34

for Joe Biden.

Not a surprise, but the margin was a surprise.

Michigan was supposed to be very close, kind of the last stand state for Bernie Sanders.

Did not work out at all.

Biden's 53 to Sanders, 37.

That's a reality.

That's the devastating loss, I think, because

that's his South Carolina.

Yeah, he needed that one.

Idaho, it looks like a 49-42 for Biden.

Two states too close to call.

Sanders leading in North Dakota, 53 to 40, and very, very razor tight in

Washington, 32.3 to 32.1.

That is surprising.

When you have Washington State going that way, of course, you have Eastern Washington, but when you have Washington State going that close, that says something.

So with all the talk about coronavirus, people have been stopped, have not been talking about the flu, which has killed 16,000 and hospitalized over a quarter million in the U.S., and the season isn't over.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

Hello, America.

It is Wednesday.

We have a big coronavirus special happening tonight at 9 p.m.

Eastern that you don't want to miss on Blazetv.com.

Tonight, the sum of all fears.

What is really going on?

Why are we seeing things that we've never seen anyone do before?

And yet, we have the president saying it's not that big of a deal.

Why do we feel the

conflict in the message?

What is the real message?

What is the truth?

Tonight, coronavirus, the sum of all fears, and our coronavirus update is next.

This is the Glenbeck program.

All right.

Here's some great news.

If you are somebody that, you know, gets razor burn or anything else,

you know, my son-in-law, boy, gosh,

he's got a beard on him.

It's like you need a tractor.

It's like harvesting corn on his face, I imagine.

And he comes over, if he shaves, and he's got just razor burn all over him.

The best shaving experience you can have is not going to come from expensive blades or creams or soaps or gels.

You want a clean, close shave?

Try Shave Secret.

Shave Secret is a proprietary blend of essential oils that dramatically reduces the nicks, the cuts, the ingrown hairs, even the shaving rash.

All right, our coronavirus update.

Coronavirus update today, as of 5:30 a.m.

Central Time, all these stats are from Johns Hopkins.

The total confirmed cases worldwide now, 126,611.

That is up from 114,000 yesterday.

Total confirmed deaths worldwide, up about 200.

Patients that have recovered from COVID-19 worldwide, 66,894.

120 countries now have confirmed cases.

That's up from 115 yesterday.

And yet, six new ones have come online with suspected cases.

The good news is the number of people that have this that are requiring hospitalization, and 4%

of them requiring ICU

continues its steady drop.

It had hovered at about 19%, so about 20% of people who got this needed to be hospitalized.

That number today stands at 12%.

That's really good news.

But this is the key to understanding what the conflict that you're hearing in messages.

Some people say it's nothing to worry about.

Some people say it's just like the flu.

Here's what you need to understand.

12%

of the population that gets this will need to be hospitalized.

We don't have room in our hospitals for 12% of the population, especially if we're all tongue-kissing each other at a Grateful Dead concert.

That's why they're saying stay home.

It's not that you're going to die.

It's that we're killing the resources and

in some cases, quite literally, the doctors who are going to be able to treat.

In Italy, I started the program.

If you missed it, make sure you listen to the podcast today.

You can find it wherever podcasts are found.

But listen to the podcast.

I read two stories from doctors that rolled the dice and took the chance of speaking out that are absolutely terrifying of what the conditions are like now in Italy.

Italy has the highest population of elderly in all of Europe.

That's why Italy is being hit so hard.

And anybody who says, well, it's just old people, really?

You're going to be old one day.

Just old people?

When you read what the doctors were talking about, how the doctors and nurses are doing everything they can to save people, but they can't.

They're turning people away who who have had strokes.

Patients who are on kidney dialysis are losing their lives because of this.

They can't do anything else but care for those who are now in ICU.

And ICU is now pretty much the whole hospital.

This is what's happening in Italy, and this is why we're shutting everything down.

And they say, don't spread it.

Stay at home.

Even though the numbers are looking better every day, we are about to get hit with a tidal wave of new cases.

You're going to know people that have this.

You're most likely going to have to stay at home.

There's going to come a time where your kids are not going to school and they may not go to school for the rest of the year.

Why aren't we just closing down that human Petri dish for virus, which is every school in America?

Why don't we just shut them down?

Because about 44% of our population, they don't have

the insurance or the system at their work that they can go home and work from home or go home and get paid.

When you have that issue,

it becomes a massive burden on those families to have the kids at home.

We'll hire a babysitter.

Who?

Who?

The The U.S.

now has 1,015 confirmed cases and 31 deaths.

We are going to see that number of the confirmed cases skyrocket soon.

As I said earlier in the program, we are about 50 days

from where China was.

We're 50 days behind them.

I gave you the headlines 50 days ago in China, and it sounds like the headlines today in America.

This is going to calm down, but we are in,

I think, a 50-60-day period before we really start to see this thing turn the other direction.

New news that I have heard today.

I'm waiting for, I'll give it to you tomorrow after we get confirmation on it.

It's good news, by the way.

I just want to make sure that we are confirmed on this.

All right.

New Rochelle, New York has now just put a one-mile containment zone by the National Guard in place.

New Rochelle is the largest cluster of confirmed cases in the U.S.

with over 190 suspected cases and 61 confirmed cases.

This is right on the edge of New York.

All public gatherings have been ordered to be canceled, including school and church gatherings.

Governor Cuomo has said this is not a quarantine.

Individuals are not prohibited from entering or leaving the area.

National Guard troops will be used to help deliver food to residents, provide traffic control and medical personnel and emergencies, and to assist in cleaning and disaffecting public places.

The new Rochelle Superintendent of Schools announced that for the next two weeks, students may miss, and summer school classes will be utilized to make up any missed instruction.

Meanwhile, colleges and universities all over the country are starting to say, as in Cambridge yesterday, you've got five hours, get your stuff, get out.

All classes now are starting to be moved online.

American lives are going to change.

We,

this is according to Dr.

How do you say his name,

Fashi?

F-A-U-C-I Fashi.

He's the.

He is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

He's one of the guys on the Mike Pence team.

He said, we'd like the country to realize that as a nation, we can't be doing the kinds of things we were doing just a few months ago.

It doesn't matter if you're in a state that has no cases or just one case.

This is the big thing that I am trying to get a handle on what the tripwires are.

I'm looking for tripwires in my own life.

No one is telling us, but you know, the governments have some sort of tripwire because they're all closing things.

I just don't know what the milestones are that you have to hit before they start closing things.

It may be I can't find the official tripwires because there are no official tripwires.

It's just somebody going,

you know what, let's close them now.

I'd like to know what those are.

We can't find them yet.

U.S.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar says the biggest intervention should be reserved for areas with clusters of cases, such as Santa Clara, California.

He echoed federal health officials' advice advice for people at higher risk.

He said, I encourage any individual who is elderly or who is medically fragile to think long and hard about going into any large gathering that would involve close quarters and potential spread.

I personally think this is why Bernie Sanders

is canceled last night.

I don't think it has anything to do with how the election turned out last night.

I think it has everything to do with Bernie Sanders being a prime case

or a prime target for something like the coronavirus.

The same could be said for Joe Biden.

I think it would be very prudent

if

all of these things stopped dead in their tracks.

I feel for the president because the president, it's the only safe space I think he feels he has.

It's the only place in watching him speak at CPAC.

To me, I understood him so much more.

And watching the way he observed the audience and watching the way he was interacting with the audience,

I think this is the only place that he feels like he's in a safe space.

He knows that the media is going to attack him, but he feels like those large crowds are his friends.

And I think those people in those crowds feel like they're his friends.

I think it's quite clearly his favorite part of the job.

I think so too.

Right.

Like if they go to a rock star, like they got to sit in the the studio all this time.

They've got to sign records.

They've got to go into meetings about promotion.

And then they get to play live.

And that's what they love.

Right.

And that's what Trump loves.

And I don't, but I don't think, I think it's deeper than that.

It's not that he just loves to do that because I think he does.

He loves that.

But I think it's the only place.

Imagine playing in clubs where everybody was like, oh, geez, they're coming back up on stage.

These guys suck.

And then you go to your hometown and you're playing where everybody loves you.

I think that's a big difference with Donald Trump.

But

these guys,

we have to protect the president.

And I think Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden should seriously consider how they're doing their rallies.

It's going to hurt the election.

But speaking of hurting the election, could you please write down, Stu, as we go through the election, what the Republicans and the Democrats, what Republicans have already done and the Democrats are thinking about doing on the upcoming primaries.

Coronavirus conference in New York.

Let me say this again.

The coronavirus conference in New York

was just canceled.

Doctors spec because of the coronavirus.

Doctors speculate that

the reason why

the case fatality rate in Italy is so high is because of age.

Italy has the highest confirmed case count outside of China.

The fatality rate is over 5% of total cases compared to just 3% in China.

It's because Italy has the oldest population in Europe with 23% of the population over the age of 60 compared to 18% in the U.S.

23 versus 18.

Italy's median age is 43.5 compared to 38.3 in the U.S.

They have tested more than 40,000 residents for COVID-19,

and the fatality rate may actually be closer and more accurate than it is in the U.S., at least for Italy, because we are not

testing enough people yet.

If we assume that there's a

1% case fatality rate for COVID-19 and a full year of spread, as we would get with the flu season, 60% of the U.S.

population population will get sick.

60%

of the population will get sick.

Now you compare that to the worst years of World War II and the Vietnam War in terms of U.S.

deaths that year.

In 1944, the U.S.

population was 130 million.

Combat deaths,

126,000.

1968, the population was

205 million.

Combat deaths, 16,000.

2020,

331 million Americans today.

U.S.

combat deaths, 120.

Now, if you compare those, the flu deaths,

flu deaths, the World War II combat, 126,000, flu deaths, 13,000.

If it was COVID-19 today,

780,000.

There were only in Vietnam, there were only 16,000 deaths in 1968 from Vietnam.

There were 20,000 flu deaths.

We're talking 1.3 million deaths in 1968 comparison.

Today, 2020, 331 million.

The combat deaths, 120.

Flu deaths, 33,100.

this could take

1 million nine hundred and eighty six thousand Americans we don't know yet but if this plays out at one percent and it doesn't have the seasonal flu break that's what we possibly could be facing that overwhelms every system we have

And I know this audience knows what overwhelming the system means.

If you want your coronavirus update every day, you just want it delivered through a podcast.

You can find that every day wherever you get your Glenbeck Radio podcast.

We do it every day, also on the radio at this time.

All right, let me tell you about rough greens.

This is not a dog food, but this is something that has all of the enzymes and the probiotics, everything that is alive.

that your food should have for your dog.

It's not in there because they cook everything out.

So all of the stuff in your dog's food is dead.

There are things,

and you know this, there are things that the human body and the dog body need.

Now they're different, thank God,

but they have need of enzymes and probiotics, all of these things that we know we need.

So do our dogs.

Rough Greens is the place where you can get all of those things added to your dog food.

You just put a little scoop a day into it.

I I don't, I do know what's in it because I brought it to my vet and I said, is this stuff any good?

They were like, yeah, let me look at that.

Called us back later and said, this stuff is fantastic.

Yes, feed this to your dog.

It's like dog crack.

They love it, but it's really healthy.

In the month that I've been giving this to Uno, he is a radically different dog.

He is playful.

He is up, excited, wagging his tail.

He's running the fence line of the house.

I mean, he is really active.

Rough Greens, 14-day jumpstart challenge.

Take it today.

14 days, 1495.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

We're glad that you're here.

You know, one of the things that Stu and I have been going back and forth on today, even before the show started, was the way the press is spinning everything and the way the president is reacting.

Last night,

Biden had a really, really good night, and he gave his what sounded like almost like the acceptance speech for the nomination

at the Constitution Center in Philadelphia.

He was dressed in a tie.

They were much more

presidential looking.

He and his wife.

He remembered a word pants.

He remembered where he was.

All of those things happen at the same time.

That's rare.

Remember Joe Biden.

But he was up at a teleprompter and he delivered a speech via a teleprompter.

So it was well crafted, but the tone of it was very, very good.

Do we have a piece of this, Sarah, that we can play?

Sign up, volunteer, and contribute if you can.

We need you.

We want you.

And there's a place in our campaign for each each of you.

Talking about the Bernie Sanders.

I want to thank Bernie Sanders and his supporters for their tireless energy and their passion.

We share a common goal, and together, we'll defeat Donald Trump.

We'll defeat him together.

So what happened, if you notice his tone, it wasn't just Sleepy Joe.

This was intentional.

He went out and he delivered a presidential speech.

Now, I don't think he's going to be able to continue this because he's always screaming at somebody.

He's screwing something up.

He is only like this when he's nailed to a teleprompter.

He can deliver something that Donald Trump needs to deliver every day, and that is confidence.

Donald Trump delivers confidence that we're going to make it.

We're going to be fine.

I think his message is actually very healthy in the long term as he's balancing what's happening on television.

But he also needs to project the confidence

of

stability on

what's coming.

Because every time he says it's not that bad, I know what he's saying.

We're not all going to die.

But people don't understand why we're closing cities down.

We've never seen that before.

He needs to be able to explain this is because of protection of the medical system and the doctors and the nurses.

And if he can say those things confidently and speak with

confidence and yet

some humility,

it will go a long way.

People are going to want to feel that somebody is holding their hand, and Donald Trump can do it.

Joe Biden did it last night.

This is the Glembeck program.

All right, let me tell you about X-Chair.

I'm a pretty big fan of something simple called Comfort.

I, for one, am glad.

If I could pick any time I could be born, it would be born right now.

I'd like to visit Jesus, but I don't want to live around Jesus.

Bad times.

Now, Comfort.

Big fan of comfort.

When you sit down for the day's work, I'd like to put my big old fat butt on the best, most comfortable office chair possible.

Hey, here's really exciting news.

Dow is down a thousand points today.

It was up over a thousand points yesterday.

We've lost it all, and we'll probably gain it all tomorrow.

I love this.

I love this.

It's why you don't freak out.

You just keep watching things.

It looks like China is back online.

They're expecting their second hit.

Why do you look?

I'm torn on the China's back online narrative right now.

President Xi

did go to Wuhan, which, by the way, has nothing to do with this virus.

And if you say it's the Wuhan virus, you're a racist.

That's what you are.

He just picked a random city.

Yeah, he's just

visiting one of his towns in a mask.

That's all.

You notice you're not hearing that now.

Well, I also noticed he was wearing a mask.

Wasn't the whole thing, the masks aren't effective in this.

Why was President xi wearing one then when he visited wuhan because anyone who says the masks aren't effective is lying to you although i do know somebody that wore what i think is just a feminine hygiene product on their face because it couldn't get couldn't get a mask uh i don't know how that works i don't think it diffuses i don't think it does

so uh i i don't know to me The idea that they are kind of like, ah, we're back to normal.

Everything's fine.

It doesn't ring true to me yet.

I mean, we don't have, obviously, a vaccine.

We don't, like, this stuff could still get spread around.

The fact that

their new cases per day

number has decreased.

The curve of the spread of the virus has flattened out, which is great.

When I say that's going away.

When I say they're back online, I mean most of their businesses are back online.

Most of their businesses are open and they're starting to do business.

They are just concerned now that the rest of the world is getting hit, and so there's nothing to sell to the rest of the world because all they want, seemingly, is toilet paper.

By the way, talked to somebody early this morning in Rome.

You know the one thing they don't have shortages of?

Toilet paper.

Just want to point that out.

They still have toilet paper over in Italy, where things have gone really, really horribly wrong.

In the political news, I just want to stop here for just a second.

The Democrats are now saying that they are thinking about canceling the rest of the primaries.

Okay.

There's nothing that screams authoritarian like canceling a primary.

Now, I say that knowing that the GOP canceled their primaries.

There is a slight difference.

There's nobody that was running that was even going to have a chance to beat Donald Trump.

With that said, I wish they wouldn't have canceled the primary.

You know, they said, well, it costs a lot of money.

Yeah.

Well, you know what?

There are things we do that cost a lot of money.

It's a political party.

You can't run a friggin' primary.

Right.

I spend a lot of money on lawyers and everything else to keep up with all of the laws.

Yeah.

You know, I'd like to be able to say, yeah, you know what?

We're just going to suspend those.

There are things you have to do.

And in a republic,

I don't know,

finishing an election is one of them.

Seems like when most of the name of your party is Republic, you might want to know that.

I'd also point out that, you know, obviously Trump isn't running unopposed largely.

He does have opponents, however, that we're all going to get blown out 94 to 6.

The problem here, though, is think about this next time.

Think about the next time when some establishment figure you don't like is president of the United States.

They're just going to start canceling these things because they want the president to hold it, whether they have a legitimate candidate or not.

The next time, how about right now with the Democrats?

The Democrats now are talking about canceling the rest of their primaries because Joe Biden's got it.

Well, you know what?

Joe Biden didn't have it three weeks ago.

It looked like Joe Biden was going to drop out in humiliation three weeks ago.

I think the one thing we can all agree on is the one thing that Joe Biden does not have is it.

Like, whatever it is, Joe Biden doesn't have it.

He doesn't have it.

It doesn't.

Cognitive decision-making ability, whatever it is, Joe is lacking it in some massive way.

Imagine if you're a Bernie Sanders supporter and all of a sudden they start talking about canceling the rest.

Now, Bernie Sanders is going to do poorly in many of the remaining states.

However, imagine you're a supporter and they just cancel the rest of them.

Even though the race isn't done, he doesn't have everything locked up.

You already feel like, wait a minute, our guy was ahead and then your party just...

Your party just orchestrated this massive comeback and put everybody together to beat our guy.

So this is the establishment rigging an election.

That's how you would feel if you were a Bernie Sanders supporter.

The last thing you would want to do if you're the Democratic Party and you want to not piss people off that like to burn things down is to give them more ammunition and more gasoline.

Really stupid, foolish, and hurts the Republic in the long run.

You should be able to vote for who you want to vote for.

You don't just hand your nominations

out of convenience.

They cancel the primaries.

I know.

I think that's really bad.

Now, that's just been suggested.

It has not actually happened.

And also, I will note,

their advertised reason for this is, yes, of course, you know, we do see that Joe Biden looks like he's going to win this, but coronavirus is serious, blah, blah, blah.

So it is important to at least note what the reason is, whether you believe it or not.

I mean, a lot of it did come from people who wanted Bernie Sanders to drop out.

And that makes it a lot easier, by by the way.

If Bernie drops out, then what?

Then the Bernie Bros, what are they going to say?

They're still going to say it was, you know, they were scammed.

I mean, I've been watching Twitter trending topics here over the past 24 hours.

Almost the entire time, there's been one about how Bernie was scammed, how they stole it from him, how

drop out, write in Bernie,

drop out of the parties, you know, dem exit, all these things from these people.

Now, look, Twitter is not real life, as we're seeing in the actual voting booth.

I mean, Twitter, you can tweet from home while you're eating a hot pocket and watching Netflix.

You can't do it, you can't vote yet.

I have a feeling some of these people are too lazy to put the hot pocket even into the microwave.

Oh, yeah,

you just wait for it to thaw out a little bit, maybe, and then just eat it.

Do you wait for it to thaw out?

If you suck on the hot pocket long enough, it starts to melt.

It starts to get softer.

It's easy, man.

Long-lasting, very cold mints.

They taste like pizza.

Pizza mints.

That's the problem, though.

I mean, I think you can't build your revolution around people who don't get off their couch.

Yeah.

And that is a big problem that Bernie was never able to solve.

He won young voters with incredibly high percentages, but none of them-I mean, they were a smaller percentage than last time of the voting populace because they didn't bother to show up for him.

Do you think that, or do you think that this whole thing was

more of a vote against Hillary Clinton and against the establishment last time, but they're not serious.

Nobody is serious except a very small handful of core supporters.

But America is people who went out Michigan and said, I'm going to vote for Bernie Sanders.

That was, you knew that Hillary Clinton was going to win.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

It wasn't real.

Right.

This is real.

Wait a minute.

We vote for him.

He could actually be it, and he's a nightmare.

You know

when else it was real?

Was right after his big Nevada win this year, all of a sudden it looked like, holy crap, Bernie might actually be the nominee.

Yeah.

This guy we've been playing Ivan Drago with and

hanging out with the hammer and sickle all this time.

That might be the guy.

Should we do something about this?

Because we never thought that it would go this far.

And it seems like voters noticed, and that was the time too, where he's out there talking about Cuba.

He's out there

going as far left as he can.

He's empowered, right?

He's in that moment where he's succeeding.

So he didn't back off the Cuba stuff.

Why would he?

Right.

Well, then South Carolina said, hey, we don't actually want this.

We want something else.

We're going to go through this tonight on Stu Does America, which we're going through why Bernie failed.

And I do think you identify there one of the biggest reasons is that people mistook the hatred and distaste for Hillary Clinton for enthusiasm for Bernie.

Yep.

And in 2016.

And they thought, well, look, the party's moving this way.

Everyone wants to be a socialist.

And there's plenty of people who love that stuff.

But on the other side of that, there were just a lot of people who just couldn't stand Hillary Clinton and didn't want to hand her the nomination.

If she was going to get it, she was going to have to work for it.

And so they dragged that thing out.

And there were so many anti-Clinton votes cast in 2016 in the Democratic primary that people thought there was a movement brewing.

And as we're seeing here, when Biden, they don't find as offensive as Hillary, that you're seeing that movement dissolve in a big way.

It did not work.

It's a death knell for the Democrats because they're caught between a rock and a hard place now.

Yeah.

Who are they?

We've talked about this back and forth how many times, Glenn, who would you want to run against if you're...

Who do you want to win the Democratic primary?

If you want Trump to win, who do you want to win?

I don't know.

You go back and forth.

The two main reasons are, obviously, Bernie's a socialist, so Biden appeals more to middle-of-the-road voters.

That's one.

So that's a route.

You'd rather go for Sanders because he's easier.

There is an alternative argument there, which is Bernie's got so much energy.

Watch out.

You should be scared of him.

Bernie's got so much energy.

Well, I think what we're proving here is he doesn't.

That energy is not there.

It does not exist.

It's not real.

The energy is not real.

The wokeism isn't real.

None of it's real.

It's on Twitter.

Now, let me switch to Joe Biden because I think Joe Biden is a very interesting character here because he is

Bernie Sanders.

He's so hard to

talk with the Joe Biden theme behind you.

Maybe this is running through his head all the time and why it's so hard for him to talk about it.

I think this is what it sounds like in his head.

Yeah.

I think everything is like

NAR

14.

So anyway,

Joe Biden is out on the campaign trail.

Joe Biden is doing what he is doing.

And I think

foolishly,

standing in front of massive amounts of crowds at his age and in the coronavirus time period,

he's going out there and doing it, but his son

has now said

he can't go to court.

He can't, man, I am trying so hard to get my financials to the court, and I've had so many troubles getting those records to you guys now

because I haven't turned them over again.

Now the judge is like, you know what, bud, show up in court.

Well, his attorney wrote in a court filing:

it's unsafe for the defendant to travel right now, as travel restrictions have been implemented both domestically and internationally, particularly on airlines due to the coronavirus.

Setting aside personal endangerment, the defendant reasonably believes that such travel unnecessarily exposes his wife and unborn child to this virus.

End quote.

Can you imagine being

the judge on this one?

What would you say?

I probably um I am going to reject that claim

and say, uh, get your ass down here.

Yeah.

You know what you could do?

Maybe take some of that burisma money and get a private jet and fly it down here so you don't have to worry about contaminating it.

Yeah, you could ask your dad.

Maybe your dad's going to be around the area.

Maybe you can fly on one of his jets when you're next time you're in the area.

Personally, I would say get your ass in the car.

You'd sleep and you could walk if you want.

Yeah, you walk, you could sleep, get your ass to the courtroom.

I've had enough.

There is some risk to that, though, too, because

you don't want Hunter Biden driving a car.

Well, that's different.

Okay, a different problem.

You never know when he's on a highway that has a strip club near a gas station.

Even Alex Jones, who was arrested yesterday, I guess he was not intoxicated.

They thought he was, but he didn't blow the legal limit.

He's just insane.

Yeah, he's just nuts, I guess.

But I mean, that's remarkable when Hunter Biden

is less safe on the road than Alex Jones.

All right, realestate agents I trust.com.

I want you to think about who you want to have sell your home.

we see them at school or the church all the time.

No,

I want somebody who is the best.

Well, we define it a couple of ways.

what's yet to come our way,

it's only been 50, what, 56 days since China was like, gee, there's this mysterious thing that's going around.
