Best of the Program | Guests: Pat Gray & Jeff Fisher | 1/3/20

You're listening to the best of the Balambak program.

Iraqi TV and three Iraqi officials said that General Qasim Soleimani, head of Iran's elite coups force, has been killed in an airstrike at Baghdad's international airport.

The officials said the strike also killed Abu Mahdi Al Mohandas,

the deputy commander of Iran-backed militias known as the Popular Mobilization Forces.

So those two very influential, big officials in Iran are gone.

We lost them.

Oh, no.

Yeah, we lost them.

Their deaths

are

probably going to spark some chaos, I would guess.

Maybe some retaliation from Iran.

You know, it does seem that way, and Iran has

pretty much said as much.

But

look,

we, you know, we

killed these two men in response

in response in Iraq.

Another country.

What are they doing there?

Thank you.

Well, what they were doing there was the general was planning attacks against U.S.

forces.

Oh, yeah.

So

that's okay.

I guess.

Yeah, you know, to them it is

perfectly fine.

I know.

So President Trump's take on this is he should have been taken out many years ago.

Of course.

He's right.

It would have saved American lives.

Yes, it would have.

So we'll see what they have, you know, what they're going to do about it.

But I don't know.

Do you just keep taking this?

Do you just keep taking it and taking it and taking it?

Or do you finally put a stop to it?

as President Trump has tried to do here.

And that's the concern, right?

I mean, yes, was it the right thing to do?

Yeah.

I think so.

Did we absolutely need to do it?

You know,

it seems like it.

Yeah, it does seem like it.

That that needs to happen, right?

I mean, we.

It does seem like this has escalated things, though, again, right?

I know.

And we were at the time when we were talking about getting out.

And just talked about it yesterday.

It's time to actually pull out the remaining forces in Afghanistan and Iraq.

And after 18 years, who can be opposed to that?

I'm certainly not.

Maybe there are people who are opposed to that, but I think it's time.

It's going on two decades.

Hands up.

Get out.

Yeah, let's go.

But now, you can't just up and leave now because things are going to get a little more dicey over there.

And so they're talking about putting thousands of extra forces in there now.

I think I just heard yesterday, didn't I hear another 4,000 are being prepped to maybe go back in?

I mean,

okay.

And that's probably prudent because,

you know,

you can expect some sort of retaliation effort on the part of Iran.

You know, so all the countries that

make up the UN Security Council are all yelling about it.

None of them, I don't know that any of them support it.

Even our allies were a little iffy on it.

Yes.

And of course.

Woke up to

the world less safe.

Okay.

Shut up.

Shut up.

Thanks for your help.

Get off our continent.

Take your stupid UN building.

We're going to bulldoze it.

So get your crap out of it, load it onto a cargo plane, and get out.

It's just, I'd love to do that

with the U.N.

And if there's a president who would do it, it's this one.

I know.

There's nothing I want more than to have Donald Trump say, you know what, the U.S.

is going to pay for it.

And what I've done is I've rented U-Hauls and just have them rode up in front of the U.N.

Absolutely.

Pack them up.

You got 48 hours.

Get out.

All of you.

I don't want to see a single diplomat here in that building left.

It's over.

Right.

And just to rub salt in everybody's room, it's going to be Trump condos.

That would be perfect.

Yes.

That would seriously be perfect.

And, you know, take it back to Europe.

You know, put it,

headquarter the UN in Belgium, like every other

one world government organization.

Thank you.

Headquarter it in Belgium.

That's That's where it belongs.

It doesn't belong in New York anyway.

And we never get any support from the UN.

Never.

We always get condemnation.

The U.S.

and Israel receive nothing but condemnation.

And we're the only two countries in the world who care about civil human rights, anybody's rights.

And we just get slapped around for it all the time, backstabbed all the time.

It's just tiresome.

You know, it really is.

It's tiresome.

And it's time to get rid of it.

This is the best of the Glenbeck program.

What is happening in Texas?

We ask that question every once in a while because there's a reason for it.

First of all,

who was it that was talking about the fact?

Oh, Betto.

Beto O'Rourke was talking about the fact that

Texas is only nine seats away from Democrat control in the legislature.

Besides that, there just seems to be a feeling and a force in Texas that is pushing us towards being a blue state.

It's turning a little bit purple, people believe, and it just needs a little bit of a shove, and they're trying to give it that shove.

Well, they were hoping with that with Beto, right?

Unfortunately, that didn't happen.

No, it did not.

If Texas goes blue, if Texas goes to Democrats, Republicans won't win.

national elections.

You got to have Texas.

You have to.

It's the most populous conservative state in the country by far.

That's a fight we need to have because

the thought of, ah, that could never happen in Texas.

What are you talking about?

That could never happen.

It can.

Look around.

The metropolitan areas have.

A year ago, a year and a half ago, I would have been right there with everybody else.

Ah, shit.

I know.

That's not happening.

In fact, I think I said it.

Well, it is happening.

I mean, all of that.

It is happening.

The major metropolitan areas all are.

They already are.

Houston, Dallas, Austin, for sure.

Yes.

Austin has been for a while.

Yeah, I mean, Austin is the mainstay of that, right?

I mean, that's the heartthrob of it.

Yeah.

But San Antonio, you know, El Paso, they're all Democrats.

I know.

And then in the suburbs, you still

got Republican control of the suburbs, but even that, the Republicans are loosening their grip on that.

And the problem is that we're allowing people from other states to move here.

And I don't know if you know this bad or not, but

this was just broke right now, breaking news.

Texas just closed.

Texas is closed.

It's just closed.

It just is.

Yes.

Thank you.

I mean, look, you can live anywhere you want.

Just not Texas.

Maybe the wall we should be worried about is the one between us and California.

I mean, people, look, that's what happens to a number of states and a number of cities and a number of places, you know, all over the country, right?

You get people, an influx of new people, and instead of realizing that, hey, maybe we need to rethink the way we did things before because that's why we had to move, no, they fall right back into the same thought and process of, well, we need to be just like we did before.

No, that didn't work then.

It just doesn't make any sense that you would leave California because

California sucks.

And then you would come to Texas and try to make it California.

Right.

Stop doing that.

What are you doing?

But it's happened all over the West.

Californians have gone to Oregon, Washington, and tried to turn those, and they have.

They've turned those into California.

They've gone to Boise, Idaho, and they're turning that into California.

They're trying to do the same thing in Utah.

It just, I mean, stop infecting these states with your liberalism, please, by all that is holy.

But that's what gives the feel that Texas is

closer than I think it is, flipping.

Yeah, I don't know.

It's just, maybe we are.

Maybe we are closer.

It's gotten closer.

There's no doubt about that.

And if we do give up, then you'll see some changes.

This just isn't the time for that.

I know.

It's the time for renewed vigor and renewed effort.

Because everywhere.

We've got to stop it.

We have to stop it.

Alex Jones has been ordered to pay $100,000 in the Sandy Cook case.

No way, it doesn't seem to be a lot of money.

Yeah.

He did call it a hoax.

Some of the parents, of course, in that tragic event took real exception to that.

He was being sued for defamation in

Austin by the parents of a six-year-old who was among the 26 people killed in the Newtown, Connecticut attack.

State District Judge Scott Jenkins ruled

that Jones and his defense team intentionally disregarded an earlier order to provide witnesses to attorneys representing the Sandy Hook father who brought the lawsuit.

lawsuit.

Jones also denied, Jenkins also denied Jones' request to dismiss the lawsuit.

I mean,

here's what he said

that they took issue with.

They have staged events before,

but then you learn the school had been closed and reopened, and you got video of the kids going in circles in and out of the building, and they don't call the rescue choppers for two hours, and then they tear the building down and seal it, and they get caught using blue screens.

And

a email by Bloomberg comes out in the lawsuit where he's telling his people, get ready in the next 24 hours to capitalize on a shooting.

Yeah, so Sandy Hook is a synthetic, completely fake with actors, in my view, manufactured.

I couldn't believe it at first.

I knew they had actors there, clearly, but I thought they killed some real kids.

And it just shows how bold they are that they clearly used actors.

I mean, they even ended up using photos of kids killed in mass shootings here in a fake mass shooting in Turkey.

Very strange.

Very, very strange.

Really strange.

I don't understand.

Walking in circles, demolition of the building.

What?

Okay.

And he knew they had actors

from the very beginning.

Clearly.

Clearly.

That was obvious.

Which, of course, no, they didn't have actors there.

And I don't know where any of that stuff came from, but so that cost him $100,000.

But I don't know that he's, I think he's changed his tune a little bit on Cindy Hook now.

I think he now admits it was an actual event.

Yeah, and that

it was just a show that he was doing.

Yeah, well, it used to be he denied ever saying what you just heard.

He used to say, no, I didn't never say that.

I never said that.

Well, of course you did.

And we have the.

The world heard you.

Yes.

We've played it a thousand times.

We heard you as clearly.

And it's the world of us.

Yes.

Yes.

The world of radio heard him.

And

we heard him when he said all of this.

And to feel what the children are feeling.

Yeah.

God almighty.

Folks,

we gotta get good good people to stand up against these people.

Yes.

I probably shouldn't have even done this radio show today

because I have this disgusted cover for how I just hate the globalists, but it's more than that.

More than that.

It is quite different.

And I just get flippant and angry, but it's because deep down, folks, I can see what they're doing.

And we have a responsibility to stop these globalists.

That's right.

Where are the men in this country?

Where are the men in this world?

What the hell have we become?

We just offer our children up to the system with the fluoride and the water and the GMO hurting them.

And we let fat perverts grab them at the airport to train them for the pedophile government.

The pedophile government.

And we've just got such a sick society.

I mean, there's a lot there.

There's a lot.

Oh, there's a lot there.

A lot there.

Wow.

I'd forgotten how a lot of stuff there was there.

Yeah, there's a ton.

I don't even know where you started into that, if you wanted to dissect it,

because there's really too much there.

So good.

That's amazing.

So good.

Yeah.

But where are the men?

Where are the red?

What have we become?

They've all been poisoned by fluoride, I think.

And they're all gone.

They're dead.

Just offer them up to the PSA's PSA's cat pedophile.

It's just amazing.

I know.

I know.

Incredible stuff.

So, anyway,

he's not casting anymore?

Yeah, he is.

Yeah.

He's just

banned from him.

And by the way,

he should not be.

Oh, he's taken off of Twitter and all the platforms that he was banned from.

I mean, it's just ridiculous.

And I've, I've.

I don't know how I feel about him being fined for the Sandy Hook stuff.

I mean,

I know he was saying, you know,

stuff that nobody really liked or believed, but I don't know that.

Well, do you believe it?

What you have to believe is that it rose to the level of defamation.

That these people

who were in this tragic, tragic situation were just doing it with actors and pretending all the way?

Does that rise to the level of defamation?

Obviously.

This judge thought so.

Yeah.

And I'm sure there'll be appeals.

You know, he's not just going to say, okay, here's $100,000.

Obviously, you're going to appeal that to a higher court.

And we'll see.

We'll keep an eye on it and see where that goes.

I mean, it's ridiculous that he doesn't have any platforms to broadcast on or to promote his work or anything.

Come on, man.

It's Alex Jones.

Yeah.

Let me decide.

This is what ticks me off

about the social media stuff is that

I know that you you have your algorithms and you're doing it for my good.

And you're letting me see what you think I should see because you've decided that this is what I like to see.

And you know better.

We're back to that somewhat knowing what's better for you.

It's progressives who know better than the rest of us

what we can consume exactly and what we can't.

Yes.

But you know what?

Just let me do it.

Just let me decide.

Right.

I can decide whether I buy into Jones and InfoWarter.

I already have decided on my social media site who I follow, who I like, what I do.

Right.

That's fine.

Let me decide.

And you can also say, and we've done this in the past.

We've talked about this before.

But you can also say, well, they're private businesses.

They can decide who's on their platform and who's not.

And we hear that all the time.

And that's not true.

Right.

Because

they have made an agreement with the government that they will be non-biased.

Just down the middle.

We're just everything.

We're covering.

That's what we're here for.

And if they're not

biased, they can be held accountable for what's on their what's on their platform so right now they've got it both ways right now they're having it both ways and they are biased they're not kicking anybody in the left off of their platforms just people like alex jones uh michelle malkin you know whoever they decide has done something really evil that they don't like and they just boot them off well that's nonsense and it shouldn't be happening you should allow them their free speech and let us decide what we'll consume and what we won't it's not that hard It's really not that hard.

If I don't want to listen to InfoWars or read their stuff, I just don't.

And in fact, I don't.

When something is linked on Drudge and it goes to Infowars stories, I just click off of it.

And look,

a lot of times, you know, it's their algorithms that set you up.

You know, they've got the algorithms set up for, you know, for your safety and for the

legalities.

I mean, you know, and it works so well.

Oh, because my wife posted a picture of her mixer making cookies

in the kitchen, going around and around and around.

Instagram and Sony decided that that could possibly be something that's owned by them musically, so they blocked that post.

What?

Now, she could argue that.

She could argue that

musically.

They could argue that and say, hey,

we disagree and that post should be up.

They have up until seven days to respond.

They responded four days later.

Oops, we were wrong.

Seriously?

Yeah.

Oops, we were wrong.

They took down a picture of a mixer?

You can post your mixer going around in a circle making cookies.

Don't worry about it.

And what was it supposed to musically infringe on?

Whatever sound it was making, the algorithm said, ooh, that's something that could be illegal music.

Really strange.

Must have been a Justin Bieber system.

System.

Instead of like a mixer going around.

I guess.

Yeah, I can see that.

I can definitely see that.

All right.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.

We've been talking about this infant who's 11 months old.

at Cook Children's Medical Hospital in Fort Worth.

And a judge has just ruled that the baby's life support can be turned off against the parents' wishes.

The family really wants to keep going,

and the medical personnel have said, nah, there's no reason for it.

We've been doing this for 11 months now.

It's time to stop.

It's time.

I don't know where you draw that line or what.

I don't.

I mean, well, to me, you draw the line with, you know, I'm the parent and we've got to.

Yeah, the parents decide, right?

Let's go to Ron in New Mexico.

Hey, Ron, you're on the Glenbeck program with Pat and Jeffy.

Hey, good morning, gentlemen.

Morning.

Yeah, so, I mean, I completely support the family wanting to keep their child alive, but I also don't think that they have the right to subjugate

their wishes onto the hospital.

I mean, the hospital,

maybe if they don't want to be involved in continuing something that they see as being unethical, they shouldn't be forced to.

Well,

you're talking about the life of a person, though.

There's nothing ethical about that for a hospital.

Yeah, isn't it kind of unethical to give up a treatment when the family's wishes are that you keep the patient alive?

I mean, I support them moving the child to another hospital.

I mean, but let's say it was something else, like you wanted the hospital to perform a sex change on an eight-year-old.

Well, are you going to then force the hospital to do what you want just because it's what you want?

No, but

that's not a life and death matter, for one thing.

So it's a little bit different.

A little bit different.

That's what the trans people would say, is that it is.

They probably would.

Yeah, they probably would.

But according to one of the articles I read, the child has a heart defect, high blood pressure, and a chronic lung condition.

Yeah.

I mean, like...

Very ill.

It's going to take some healing.

Yeah.

The possibility of an actual recovery is pretty low.

And for them, it seems like we're just doing stuff to her.

We're not really improving her overall condition.

And

they do claim the baby's in pain as well.

Yes.

No matter what they do.

Yeah.

I mean, they can only.

I really feel

it's a tough situation.

Thanks, Ron.

Appreciate it.

You know, we had another situation sort of like this.

Was it a year or two ago where there was a hospital

that wanted to deny treatment to an ailing patient.

And the family.

That was the family in England, though, right?

Was it England or

England?

I don't remember.

I don't know.

There have been so many of these stories.

They're not confused together, but they do blend together.

But there was an alternative hospital, and they had somebody who was going to give them care.

And the hospital wouldn't even let them move the patient.

Right.

Because they made their decision.

No, sorry, we're turning off the.

Right.

We're shutting in.

We're shutting down life support.

Well, no, I've got somebody who will treat them.

They've agreed to this.

And so I don't know if that's the case

with this baby.

If there's a hospital that they could transfer the baby to, then yeah, you should probably do that.

I don't know where that would be.

You know, they said that they, you know,

they said that they checked with 19 other hospitals all agreeing with the same diagnosis.

Were they 19 hospitals in this area or were they just in the Cook Children

network?

Who knows?

Yeah, I don't know.

Who knows?

So, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

It's a really tough.

It sure is.

It sure is.

It's a tough and really tragic issue.

And

I just, it's hard.

It's hard to take that decision away from the parents.

It sure is.

From the family.

It sure is.

Because we're told all the time that somebody knows better than us.

All the time.

All the time.

Somebody knows better than us.

Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Mike Bloomberg, Bill de Blasio.

They all know better.

We don't even know how to eat, according to those progressives.

They all know better than us.

Now the hospitals.

No, they know better than us.

Everybody knows better.

Look, you're just a dummy.

Right.

Sure.

You're not capable of making it.

We understand

you as a lowly, dumb human, want your child to live forever.

But we've decided

that we know better.

And it's just...

It's tiring.

Yeah, and we don't want to be told that.

And when it's your child, of course, you don't want that to happen.

And you do anything to save them.

You'd do anything to save them.

Whatever it was.

And in some cases, it might be unreasonable.

There might be no way for this baby to survive.

But if they have the means.

I think my answer to that would be so.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

Especially if they have the means.

And I don't know because this story, the story that we read, I never saw anything.

It doesn't say anything about the money situation.

Financials.

It doesn't say whether they can afford it or they can't, whether they're paying their bills or they're not.

It doesn't say anything about that.

So

are we drawing the line there?

Are we drawing the line

that the hospital has now decided, well, you know, we take care of your patient, but you can't afford it.

I mean,

there's that argument as well because people do

who are able to afford

better care, those evil rich people

that are able to afford better care.

I don't know where that line is.

The line is you get the best of the people.

All I know is those people shouldn't exist because they're evil.

Those people with lots of money who can't afford all this stuff.

I'm glad you said it.

I didn't want to say it, but I'm glad you did it.

It had to be said.

It had to be said.

Thank you.

Right?

I mean, if there's one thing we've learned from Democrats, it's that wealthy people are evil.

And they should be shunned and they should be shamed and they shouldn't be allowed to live.

Their money should be confiscated.

Their property should be taken away from them.

Well, confiscated.

And they should perhaps go to prison for the rest of their lives.

But they should at least pay it all in taxes.

Yes, they should.

Yes.

How much is their fair share?

100%.

That's how much.

You know what?

Okay, you happy now?

110%.

We want everything you've got.

Take a little bit of your life.

And while you're dead, we're taking it too.

After you've given us everything you have, then you can work for the next 10 years and give all of that to us as well.

So, yeah.

And then we'll see if that's enough.

We'll see.

You're listening to the best of the Glendeck program.

You got some good news on the Impossible Burger front, huh?

There are some good news.

That is good news.

There's a meatless burger that tastes just like meat, pretty much.

It seems.

Well, yeah, pretty much.

Pretty much.

I mean,

we heard late last year, since we were in early 2020, that it had similar ingredients.

Ingredients to dog food.

That's it, though.

Yeah.

I mean,

what dog food doesn't?

Right.

We know that the Impossible Whopper has 25 grams of protein.

The Whopper has 28 grams.

So it's darn near

close to equal.

Yeah.

I mean, darn near the same.

But we also know, according to this particular doctor, that it has a high amount of estrogen in each burger.

Oh, really?

The Impossible Whopper has 44 Mg of estrogen.

44 milligrams of 4 milligrams.

All right.

44 milligrams of estrogen.

I don't know if that's a lot.

I don't know.

But he said the Whopper

has 2.5

ng of estrogen.

So is that negative grams of estrogen?

I don't know.

I don't know what it is.

Nanograms.

Okay.

Nanograms.

So that means that the Impossible Whopper, according to this doctor's math,

has 18 million times as much estrogen as a regular Whopper.

That seems like a lot.

18 million times.

That seems like a lot.

Huh.

That seems like a real lot.

That's a way lot.

According to this story now, six glasses of soy milk per day has enough estrogen for you to grow

breasts.

So, I don't, you know, maybe you eat three or four.

How long would I have to drink six glasses of soy milk before I grow breasts?

Come on.

There's that much estrogen in soy.

It doesn't.

Six glasses a day for 10 years, four years,

your whole life.

Yeah, it doesn't say, you know.

But

I've heard the things about soy before where, yeah, there's something going on there.

I mean, they're filling us with estrogen.

I mean, that's, you know, I'm an example of that.

Are you?

Yes.

Yes, I am.

Okay.

Yes, I am.

I've got way too much estrogen.

All right.

Uh-huh.

So you've grown breasts.

Yes.

My entire body is just a breast.

It's really icky, but thank you.

Thank you for that.

It doesn't feel that way.

So I'm just saying, look.

So

be careful.

There have been some really ugly things coming out about this Impossible Burger lately.

Like you said, just a few weeks ago, they were talking about the dog food similarity because the ingredients are very similar to dog food.

Now they're saying that you're getting high doses of estrogen every time you eat the thing.

As you say high dosages,

18 million times more than the whopper itself.

You've You've convinced me not to eat the thing.

That's, I mean, these two stores.

I'm not even going to take the chance now.

I'm not eating that burger.

And you have to specifically ask for it to be microwaved, or they're just going to cook it on the grill that they're cooking the beef on, right?

So, I mean, I don't know what the point is.

Yeah.

I mean, your point of having the impossible burger is to not have beef.

Yes.

But

do you want dog food and breasts and to have it...

I personally don't.

No, I I personally don't.

Okay.

That's just you, though.

Yeah, it might be just me.

I don't know.

You know, look,

I'm sure if Stu were here, he would poo-poo this.

Absolutely, he would.

In some way, absolutely, he would.

And then you'd have to say, well, take off your shirt.

All right, let's see what you got.

Let's see who has the breasts.

Let's see what the walker has done and what the impossible burger has done, okay?
