The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program | Guest: Abby Johnson | 2/27/23

Episode Date: February 27, 2023

The U.S. Department of Energy agrees — with ‘low confidence’ — that the COVID-19 pandemic likely began with a lab leak in China. But why are they speaking about this NOW? Then, Glenn details a...nother story that the far-left once deemed to be a ‘right-wing conspiracy’: The gas stove ban. Abby Johnson, author of ‘Unplanned,’ joins Glenn to discuss how the pro-choice movement has ‘essentially turned every woman's bathroom into an abortion clinic.’ Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:00:00 60% of the vans on Amazon come a vendor independent like Sac Magic. Hello, here Camille of Sac Magic. Our compresses, show of fraud are fabriced in Quebec, and our presence on Amazon
Starting point is 00:00:09 enlarge our clientele to the world entire. Trouvee to puttees like our own onrocerr.com. The COVID-19 thing really pisses me. Really?
Starting point is 00:00:19 Why? In what way? I mean, they keep... Oh, I don't know. They just destroyed careers. Sure. They did a lot of things. A lot of people do a lot of things.
Starting point is 00:00:29 You can't get stuck on it. Is that what it is? Yeah, you just got to move past it. That's the best way to handle these things. Move past it. We ask people to write to us today or email us or tweet at Glendbeck. The things that the media has said were absolute conspiracy theories, the things that the social media banned people for saying that are now all coming out to be true.
Starting point is 00:00:51 I mean, what does that tell you? I really, I sincerely want a list of all of the things that they have said and done that now all turn out to be true. And it's not just COVID. It's almost everything. I mean, it's, it's, it's, well, I'm not going to say it's treason. I'm not going to say it. But I'm not, not going to say it either.
Starting point is 00:01:18 You did say it several times on the show today. Oh, I did? Yeah. It's coming up. Keep listening. Glenn's going to call some people treasonous on today's program. And, and more than. one subject.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Yes. And it's a word I don't use. I don't like when people use it. But I use it a lot on today's podcast. Brought to you by Jace Medical. Recently, we shot down a Chinese spy balloon. The president told us could be weather equipment we don't know. But we found out last week that, yes, we do know.
Starting point is 00:01:52 It was the size of three school buses. I love school buses, said the vice president. And it was spying on us and floating over strategic air command. Is that a problem? Strategic Air Command? I mean, just close up pictures right there just above it. Not a big deal. Anyway, we're not becoming more friendly, listen to today's podcast, with China.
Starting point is 00:02:21 So what does that mean? According to a University of Minnesota study, we rely on China. and other overseas countries for 18 out of 21 critical antibiotics. 18. 72% of our active pharmaceutical ingredients come from China. What? We might want to start making medicines here. If there is a problem, we're going to have a problem with antibiotics.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Don't let that happen to your family. Get the Jace case from Jace Medical. You can get it at JaseJ-A-S-E-Medical.com. It's a pack of five different courses of antibiotics that you can use to treat a long list of illnesses, and it could save your life. It's a great way to be ready for shortages, and it's also perfect for traveling, you know, if you're just going on vacation. Listen, don't get caught unprepared.

Starting point is 00:03:50 the COVID-19 pandemic likely originated from a Chinese lab leak? This, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Lies? Department of lies. Of energy? Yeah, that is kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:04:07 The Department of Energy. Now, you know that what you know that what you just said is a conspiracy theory and you are no longer broadcasting. We've already cut the feed. We cut the cord to the satellites. Now, do I have to have the disclaimer on everything I post and say now that the U.S. Department of Energy has concluded that that's probably the most likely? Well, they were, they had some oil pump stuff they were working on, some solar panel stuff.
Starting point is 00:04:33 And then they're like, oh yeah, and the origin of COVID is this. Yes. I mean, when I think of the best detectives, I think, I think. think of the Department of Energy, don't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. So, according to classified intelligence report recently supplied to the White House and key members of Congress, a leak from the Chinese laboratory is likely the origin of the COVID pandemic. Now, this is coming as a complete shock to most Americans. The Wall Street Journal reported the Energy Department now joins the Federal Bureau of Investigation, saying the virus likely spread via a misconduct. app at the Chinese laboratory. Wow. So we got it from the, did you know about the FBI and what they
Starting point is 00:05:17 were saying? I've heard the FBI was believed that it may be. Maybe, maybe, okay. So the Wall Street Journal says the conclusion is a result of new intelligence. Now remember that because I think I know what the new intelligence is. New intelligence and it is significant because the agent has considered, has considerable scientific expertise and a network of U.S. national laboratories, some of which conduct advanced biological research. Now, when I think of energy, I don't necessarily think of biological research. I mean, this is not the point of the story. This is not what we should be taking from it.
Starting point is 00:06:02 But it is important to note that perhaps our agencies have grown to a bit of an extraordinary size when the Department of Energy has an opinion on where the origin of COVID came from. Well, it's because they have considerable scientific expertise. I'm sure they do. They oversee a network of U.S. national laboratories. But why? Why would the Department of Energy oversee? Because they're the ones that have all the labs that are doing all of the very, very high tech.
Starting point is 00:06:39 We talked about it just recently, the fusion or fission, which is it, plant. That came from the national labs, okay? That's overseen by the energy. So if you're good at nuclear fusion, because nuclear also good at biological origins? Nuclear is directly tied to not only the Department of Energy, but also to blowing things up. So if you're blowing things up, you might as well have a few scientists in there.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I was like, before we blow things up, what do you say? Maybe we, I don't know, maybe we kill them with a deadly virus. Are we in France? Why is, why is the department of- They're always cooking something up in France. Okay. All right. So the Department of Energy now, you ready, has made the determination, quote, with
Starting point is 00:07:37 low confidence. What the hell? What? That's not a determination. That's not a determination. That's like, I don't know. Could be. You don't come out and say, the Department of Energy is joining the Federal Bureau of Investigation saying that it is likely spread via a mishap.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Okay, wait. And this conclusion is a result of new intelligence and is significant. By the way, very low confidence. Very low. Very, very low. It's a strange story from beginning to end. Why do you announce a determination if you have low confidence in that determination? Now, that is a good question.
Starting point is 00:08:22 I mean, I feel like if you have low confidence in the determination, you do not have a determination. Right. Well, you have new evidence that's significant, but it's so significant, it leads you to low confidence. That's our government in a nutshell right there. Right. Okay. So why? Why would they announce that this weekend? Well, I mean, first of all, it's likely true, right? We don't know for certain. No, but I don't have low confidence. Right. I would say, not at high, right? Confidence. If this was a murder story with all this, the evidence that we have on this, we would all, the jury would come back 12-0 and say guilty. Guilty. Right. And by the way, it kind of. It kind of. of is a murder story. It's more of a mass genocide.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Yeah, genocidal, you know, let's be kind, serial killer. Right. Okay. Yes. In some ways, you're right. But, you know, again, when you come to the scientific end of it, I mean, I certainly have spent, you're going to be surprised to hear less time in the lab than you might think.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Well, I'm determining the origins of deadly viruses. I'm a doctor. I can talk science. You're different. Oh, yeah. Do you have low confidence, moderate confidence, high confidence? A very high confidence. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Now, you still could talk me out of it. It's possible. It's possible. I don't know. The thing that they always find, which is the animal that has a trace of this in the normal population, anywhere in the world. Like, for example, that might go long way. That might be good. Yeah. We found the monkeys.
Starting point is 00:09:53 The monkeys, you know, vomit blood, bleed from their eyes, but they found them. Right. They found them. Like that. Now, they've only been trying to find it the entire time and have not found it, which is very, it's not impossible. possible that this would be against, but it is very unlikely by at this point they would not find the natural spillover candidate. However, if they were to find that, you might say, okay, well, let's look at that evidence and see if it's legitimate, but there's so much circumstantial
Starting point is 00:10:20 evidence piled up on the side of the lab leak at this point. Right. That you'd think this would be obvious to pretty much everybody that it should be a central consideration. And that is, that was basically the reasoning we had in April 2020 for bringing this up, right? The fact that now the Department of Energy is getting to the point in, what are we, February 2020?
Starting point is 00:10:44 Yeah, three years late. They're like, ah, you know, we kind of agree with that, with Glenn Beck's circa 2020. Yeah, we're sorry for banning everybody, but we want you to know, the ban still goes for everybody but us because we have very low confidence. Right. New significant information.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Very low confidence. And I would say that was probably our position in April 2020. Yes. It looks kind of like it came from here. I would say it's likely, but we have low confidence. We don't know enough detail. And we have low confidence without any significant information. And then you get the information over multiple years.
Starting point is 00:11:21 And you think to yourself, maybe we have high confidence. Moderate confidence, you know. But it's very low, which means they could change it at any time. They could say, you know what? new information out. New information and even more significant than the significant information that had us go from no confidence to low confidence. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:43 It's like I know why I'm overweight, right? Yeah. And the reason I'm overweight is because I eat too much crap too often. Correct. I have high confidence in that. Is it possible? I have a glandular issue? Me?
Starting point is 00:11:58 I guess it's possible. It is. Right? It could be very low. Very low. possibility. Very unlikely. But I'm highly confident that it's the amount of Taco Bell
Starting point is 00:12:08 drive-thru stops that I make in a given week that makes me overweight. But if a doctor came to you and said, you've got a glandular issue, I might say, well, I need to look at the evidence of that. Right. I'm interested in this. Thank God Taco Bell can survive. Okay. So now why would this come out? Now, I'm not saying that this is it, but I'm not
Starting point is 00:12:28 not saying it either. I want every statement you make on this now to be followed by a level of confidence. Okay, okay. My level of confidence on this one is almost biblical. Okay. Maybe literally biblical. Yeah, I mean, I take the scriptures and then I come down a little bit.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Right. And that's where I'm at. Okay, got it. So low confidence. Low confidence. So there's a couple of things in the news. You know, completely unrelated. China is cozying up to Russia.
Starting point is 00:13:03 and they've offered a peace deal and they're also talking about sending drones and and also ammunition to Russia that I learned that over the weekend. Oh, and did you see the fighter jet that was over the South China Sea that was shadowing our, I mean like 20 feet away from ours becoming very aggressive, not really done before? Yeah, yeah. Boy, boy, it's a good thing that. We're not mad at them for other things. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:13:36 Sure, we're upset at them about that. But they have proven to be good, strong allies of ours and good helpful friends. And, of course, didn't have anything to do with the pandemic that killed millions of... Oh, wait a minute. I've just gotten some... Hang on. New significant information. Holy cow.
Starting point is 00:13:59 With this new significant information, I can know. longer say. They've been good allies of ours. They may be an enemy of not just us, but the whole world, because they leaked. Accidentally, we think, but we could get another very specific and very, very important update at any minute. They may have had a lab leak that caused millions of people to die, so they're not very good. They're not good people. And we had to be dragged to that conclusion. Boy, we didn't want to say that about the Chinese, because we like the Chinese and they're so good.
Starting point is 00:14:44 And gosh, darn it, we didn't want to have to come to that conclusion. And now we're dealing with the airplane. I don't know if we can trust them. They might become an enemy of ours. Well, really, the enemy of mankind, because have you heard about the lab leak? Completely unrelated and completely. it's just a giant coincidence that after three years, within the two-week period where China is giving us trouble, all of a sudden we come to the conclusion that they may have leaked the coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:15:24 COVID could have come from them. And by the way, we have no confidence that America was involved in that whatsoever. In fact, all of the releases that we've released this weekend, Don't mention Anthony Fauci. Don't mention the labs here in America, the bat lady. What bat lady? We're not talking Batman, Robin, or the bat girl. What are you talking about bat lady? We have nothing to do with that.
Starting point is 00:15:47 It's China. Now, I just might be a little cynical. Yeah, people might say, Glenn, you have no faith? You have no trust? I mean, in the full faith and credit of the United States, States of America? No, I don't have any. Nope, nope. Not since they banned everyone from saying this with all the evidence that we produced, oh, I don't know, two years ago. Not with all of the questioning. Not with, not with everybody being run out into the streets. Burn them. They're a
Starting point is 00:16:27 witch for even suggesting, even saying Wuhan, don't call this the charge. Chinese virus. How dare you? No, I'm just a little skeptical of the press who's not banning the Department of Energy, probably because they have low confidence. Even though we had all the documents and had high confidence and anybody who would look at the documents would go, well, that's pretty I can understand. but I think you should have higher than high confidence. No, no, we were enemies of the state. But now, Biden administration has been given some new information. China might be an enemy of ours. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:17:24 And I'd hate to unleash. I'd hate to have to unleash an economic barrier against China. That'd be bad for us, but it'd be the right thing to do. be bad for us, bad for them, but it'd be the right thing to do. Gosh, if we could just find our way to not doing that, I wonder what China could do. Hey, by the way, did you notice we're really upset about all the arms and stuff that they're talking about sending to Russia? Hey, I wonder if we could drop our investigation if they would drop their support, you know, with ammunition and stuff. maybe we could both back away and go, I see nothing.
Starting point is 00:18:12 No, that's true something. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. All right. So let's just look at a few things here. Do you remember the banning of gas stoves? The conspiracy theory? Yeah. Yeah, there was a huge conspiracy theory about that on the right,
Starting point is 00:18:40 if I'm not mistaken. And they thought, you know, somehow they came up with this wild idea that suddenly the government was going to try to ban gas stoves, this thing that had been cherished by every foodie on the left. I know. This is CNN. This is how they reported on it. They were kind of jokesters with it.
Starting point is 00:18:59 The Biden administration has come under fire this week due to an overcooked fear that it's planning a nationwide ban on gas stoves. That's precious. The claim sparked by comments from consumer products, Commission official published Monday that any option is on the table when it comes to regulating gas stoves amid growing health concerns over the appliances. There is no growing health concern. None.
Starting point is 00:19:26 No. Okay. In the days after discussion online evoked images of government dragging its four burner cooktops from homes and social media users sharing memes of gas stoves with a text like, don't tread on me. Those stupid people. Well, the White House said it would not. support a ban. And the commission and independent agency says no such ban is in the works. Okay. Well, apparently you have to go into the way, way, way back machine to remember a month ago
Starting point is 00:20:01 when they said, this is a conspiracy. An analysis published earlier this month, President Joe Biden's Energy Department acknowledged that roughly half of all gas stoves in the U.S. market today would not meet its proposed cooking appliance efficiency regulation. E&E News reports on Friday. As a result, these stoves would not be eligible to purchase, says the Energy Department. Energy Department spokesperson Jeremy Ortiz dismissed concerns over the proposal saying half the gas stove. would remain if this standard is finalized as proposed. So only half of them would go away? Well, that's, well, okay.
Starting point is 00:20:47 First of all, not even worth commenting on. Right. If only half of all gas stoves are going to go away, it's a total conspiracy theory to even bring it up. Right. Right. And I assume that's exactly where it ends. Well, the Energy Department's emission comes roughly a month after U.S. Conservative Safety Commissioner Richard Trumka told a Biden appointee said to people,
Starting point is 00:21:06 a gas stove ban was on the table. it's a hidden hazard. Any option is on the table. Wait, but that... Products that can't be made safe have to be banned. That was the genesis of the conspiracy theory when the guy said it? Yeah, that was the... Yeah, that was the genesis of that.
Starting point is 00:21:23 That seems like a pretty good conspiracy theory, when the person's actually saying the thing that the conspiracy theory is stating... Yeah, now, you were right, only half. Only half! You'd have the other half! But the association of home appliance manufacturers, is arguing the proposed rule would prohibit a much larger proportion of gas stoves from being sold. It's not even really worth mentioning these people are crazy.
Starting point is 00:21:50 You know, they've got some other agenda, you know, big cigar smoking types. Yeah. The vice president who clearly smokes a cigar, Jill Notini. Oh, yeah. Pointed out to a December Energy Department test of 21 gas stove. models, all but one of those models failed to meet the proposed rules efficiency standards. So about half. No, she says that shows that it would nullify about 96% of the gas stove market.
Starting point is 00:22:22 So you still have the other 4%. What a gift from our government and our betters to allow us to still have those 4%. Right. You know? Right. And what a conspiracy theory it was to say they would be bad. There's still 4% of them left. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:37 96% go away. Sure, but 4% remain for a limited time. And that's, so it was a conspiracy. They were right. And we're not sure about that 4%. But, you know, probably. Possibly. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Now, this is just something that is just a growing concern. This is not, this is all organic. Oh, I mean, you know, you pull back the curtain and you'll see, you know, three guys standing there who founded rewiring America. But that's just an environment. you know, advocacy, dark money group. You know, nothing to see there. Started from the grassroots.
Starting point is 00:23:13 Well, not really. They're the ones behind the push to regulate and get rid of gas stoves. And they seem to have a significant financial stake in the green energy push. What? Yeah. They started rewiring America. They funded rewiring America in 2020. And they all pursued wind, solar,
Starting point is 00:23:36 electrification and energy efficiency ventures. So they put millions of dollars into this. And if they can just get America off all fossil fuels, they'll be rich. So, and they're hauling in all kinds of money. It is. And maybe just moving the percentages to, let's say, half would go a long way to make them very, very long as well. Yeah, but imagine 94%.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Yeah, that would be better. You see, that's their goal. Their goal is to get us entirely. onto electricity. And that's, of course, produced by elves. Of course. Yeah, you've seen the Keebler elves. They stop making cookies.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Sorry, guys. Stop making cookies. They're not making energy. Okay, good. Now, there is another unfortunate story. You know, our electric grids, which are kind of shaky to begin with. They can't connect to all of this green. energy. They won't have the capacity for doing that. Oh, no? So yeah. Yeah. When do we, when do we address that?
Starting point is 00:24:50 I would assume after we live in how many years of darkness, we turn off the fossil fuels? Well, the local grid won't be at capacity when we turn off all the fossil fuels. So then it'll be, it'll be okay. But we won't produce enough energy for us to actually live. You know, let will empower our cars. If we adjust our life slightly. You know, maybe we don't leave the house. And we're a little bit. More clothing in the winter.
Starting point is 00:25:16 You know what I mean? Yeah, no, wear a sweater. All your layers. Very American, you know what I mean? Yeah, people love that sort of advice. Yeah. Is this Glenn, to bring back an Obama-era term, an example of stray voltage? Do you remember this concept?
Starting point is 00:25:32 It was an idea that the Obama administration tested widely on us. as experiments where they they would intentionally introduce a concept that was wildly out of the conversation. Gas stove should be banned knowing and in fact depending on the controversy
Starting point is 00:25:53 that would ensue when that was introduced. Everyone's going to be like, wait, what the heck are you talking about? And what typically would happen and this is essentially a way for them to convince their own side of something they would not normally do. But what would happen is, of course,
Starting point is 00:26:06 people on the right, Obama's enemies, would say, wait a you, what are you talking about? That's crazy. This is what this, you know, administration wants to do. And we would all get up in arms. And just by nature, the left would take the opposite side of that. Right. And all of a sudden, you'd go from zero percent support of getting gas stoves out of homes to 40 percent support. Because all of a sudden, everybody, it's, you know, people. People like Glenn Beck, who on the left, they may not be as fond of you as so many of us are, they would look at you and say, well, if Glenn Beck is taking that other side, there must be something to this idea. And while they're sitting there denying it the whole time that they even came up with it, they wind up going from 0% support to 40% support.
Starting point is 00:26:57 And then over time, it becomes this argument made now by people like AOC. It actually is a big health concern. It actually should go away. How come you don't know that? And over time, it builds and builds and builds until their policy that they wanted the whole time actually is in place. Okay. So that used to be called the Overton Window. But the Overton Window did something slightly different.
Starting point is 00:27:20 The Overton Window is this political concept that you have a spectrum of ideas. And the window is kind of here in the sane area. I haven't been there for a long time. And somebody will say, we've got to ban all gas stoves. That's nowhere in the spectrum. of ideas that the window is now showing. It's so far over that the window can't even see it, but the argument pushes that window because people start arguing about gas stoves and then eventually you get half of gas stoves banned, and they get that as their win. That's not what's happening
Starting point is 00:27:58 here, because they're going to go for the total ban on gas. In this article, they are talking about gas dryers, gas heaters, all gas appliances gone. All of it, all of it. That is the goal. And so they don't want just half of it. They want all of it. What's happening now, and I don't even know what you call it. I call it the Lewinsky. And it's something that we've talked about on this program many times. It's what happened to Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. The world is arguing, the political world is arguing, he did it at the very beginning. And it's impeachable. No, he didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:28:47 He did it. And it's impeachable. He didn't do it. He did it and it's impeachable. He didn't do it. Then, after months of that, then the dress comes out. And everybody now knows he did it. and the argument is he did it and it's impeachable.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Yeah, he did it, but it's no big deal. Okay? That's what's happening. Give me flashbacks. Right. That's exactly what's happening. Gas stoves are going to be banned. No, they're not.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Yes, they are. No, they're not. The very next argument is gas stoves are being banned. Yeah, they are, but they should be. Right. Yeah, 100%. That's not an Overton window anymore. To combine this all, stray voltage is a way to move the Overton window
Starting point is 00:29:43 so you get the Lewinsky. Is that what stray voltage is? I've never heard of that term. I think you have heard of, we've talked about it years ago. But it was something, I think, I want to say the first person I ever heard talk about it was Major Garrett, who was talking about the Obama administration years and years ago. And it was just this idea of introducing
Starting point is 00:30:01 these things intentionally, You'd think the gas stove thing did not work short term for the Biden administration, right? It was something that was rejected by a lot of people over half. I mean, it was not a close call. But it introduced it into the ecosphere. And while they got that pushback initially for the controversy on it, and they had to come out and deny it and do their dances, over a long period of time, they got a win there because they will move the Overtin window and all of a sudden,
Starting point is 00:30:35 the conversation is about, well, maybe we should be banning them. Let's look at the evidence. Let's bring that into the conversation. And eventually it gets to the point where they say, yes, we do want them banned and it's a good idea. And that's essentially that movement that we're talking about in the woods.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Just a bunch of terms. We're just combining here. It does work. I mean, this is what they do all the time. It's what they did with socialism. Remember, was it Newsweek or U.S. News and World Report?
Starting point is 00:31:02 I remember it just. distinctly. We did a story on it on my Fox News show and it said, we're all socialists now. It was right after the election of Barack Obama. And I held that up and I said, they are admitting that they are socialists, that we're all socialists now. And the media went crazy and called me a racist and everything else. They don't deny socialism now. They don't deny it. It's what they were. This is something so critical that we, it's why
Starting point is 00:31:39 I'm asking you to call this hour and just take a list. I don't need to talk to them necessarily on the air, but take a list of all of the things people are calling about. What are the things that they have said? The media and the government has said is not true. For instance, we found
Starting point is 00:31:55 out that, oh, now the Department of Energy agrees with the FBI that looks like it was a lab leak. All of the things that they have discredited and punished people. It's not that these things are, you know, just mistakes. Oh, they got it wrong.
Starting point is 00:32:17 People get things wrong all the time. We get things wrong. This is things that they lied about and punished anyone for saying. And now, once they all start to become true, and they admit it, we have to hold those people responsible because they have caused great damage and great pain. And not just to the people they canceled, but to the Republic itself.
Starting point is 00:32:47 That has caused the division. What is the division? We can't even agree on, we can't even agree on vaccines. We can't even agree on what say? No, we can't. Why? Because you won't have a conversation
Starting point is 00:33:01 about anything other than your way or the highway. That's divisive. So when you're canceling people, because we're saying, hey, this is a problem, and you cancel people because they say that, and then later come back and go,
Starting point is 00:33:18 yeah, that was right, but, but what? Are you going to check yourself? Are you changing your, the way you do business, the way you look for truth?
Starting point is 00:33:31 they're not, but we should. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. That subject that I banned for so long was abortion. And I regret that as I now know and feel abortion is the greatest of all evils that America has perpetrated. And also, I think one of the only ways we could possibly. save our republic turning back to god asking for forgiveness for everything humbling ourselves repenting and um saving his children i mean how can he not bless a people who have have humbled themselves and are now saving his children welcome abbey how are you i'm doing well thanks for having me on
Starting point is 00:34:30 you bet you bet you look great thank you um so uh let's start with the the um the news that is is happening now. Biden is in this death cult. And we've gone from abortions in clinics. Now he is making abortion pills available. And that, I would imagine, is a much more traumatizing way to have an abortion. than going into a planned parenthood and having the suction done. Yeah, so Biden has greenlit medication abortion into every pharmacy across the country
Starting point is 00:35:19 if they choose to carry these medication abortion pills. So he has essentially turned every woman's bathroom into an abortion clinic. Stu and I were just actually at a women's pregnancy center just this last Friday with our wives. And we were with pre-born and just seeing this clinic and how, I mean, just how good it was and the good that they do. And they just love the women that come in. And they're with them for years after the birth. And it becomes kind of this family. They really truly care.
Starting point is 00:36:04 And they said that a woman, a young woman, had just come into the clinic recently, so horrifically traumatized. She came in in a washcloth was her baby that she had chemically aborted. And she was hysterical. And she's like, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do with his body. You know, and she talked about how that's not what they said was going to happen. And they make it seem like it's going to be a really easy thing. You know, it's just like your monthly period.
Starting point is 00:36:42 It's not. Well, that's exactly what they're saying. So in my inbox right now, I have an email from Nehraal, and the subject line literally says safer than taking a Tylenol. So that is how they're selling. medication abortion that it's just like taking Tylenol, but it's not just like taking Tylenol. We know that because you're literally killing a baby that's inside of your womb. And they're not telling these women.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Okay, and this is being taken up to 12 weeks in pregnancy. So by 12 weeks in pregnancy, everything on that, that unborn child in the womb is completely developed. So we're talking about arms, legs, fingers, toes. You can see the profile of your baby on its face. So these women have no idea that when they take these pills, when they're at home, and they pass their baby into the toilet, they're going to see their fully formed child floating there in the toilet. And then they're going to have to make a decision, right? And they're going to be shocked because they have no idea that they're going to see their fully formed child there in the toilet. and then exactly what you said, Glenn,
Starting point is 00:37:59 they're going to have to make a decision. Like, do I scoop my baby up out of the toilet? Do I bury it? You know, they're in a state of shock. Or do I flush my baby down the toilet? And we have no idea what the psychological ramifications of this are going to be for women. It's a horror movie. It is a horror movie.
Starting point is 00:38:20 And then these women are going to be going back, right? to the scene of this trauma over and over and over again. They're going to be going back to that bathroom. They're going to be remembering what took place in that bathroom. What does this do to a woman? And nobody's talking about that. To a girl. Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:42 To a little girl. Yes. And now these women can get these pills, these girls can get these pills sent to any address that they want. They can get it sent to their own. aunt to their, to their friend, to their best friend, they can get us at anywhere. They can go into a pharmacy, they can pick it up, and their parents have no idea, their loved ones have no idea, their guardians have no idea. This is perfect, this is the perfect storm to cover up incest,
Starting point is 00:39:16 sexual abuse, rape. Who's going to be held accountable for that? I mean, this is, this is awful. get pro-abortion supporters, groups like NARAL, these supposed women's advocates, right, they're out here saying, oh, this is a step, you know, this is a step in the right direction for women. This is women's progress. This is progress for women. This is not progress for women. Women flushing their babies down the toilet.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Women hemorrhaging from abortion. Women dying because they become septic because parts of their baby are left in their womb. That is not progress for women. That is regression. Yet they're saying this is good for women. This is not a good for women. You know, I, Stu and I met a woman who had gone through abortion and they had made a video of her telling her story. She was, she was there as she was watching it. We were watching it. And it's, you know, when you are actually trying to do the compassionate thing. You are thinking about the woman. And they always say, oh, you just, you just are counting numbers as a baby and you don't care about the baby and you don't
Starting point is 00:40:37 care about the woman. No, I deeply care about the woman. And I had never thought of it this way. She said, you know, when I went in, I was planning on having an abortion. And she said, I just kept praying, please, Lord, take this baby from me. Do, you know, act of God, you know, miscarriage, the child. And she said, and she went through one abortion and she said, she just knew that what she was doing was wrong, but she just didn't have any other choice she felt at the time. I've never really thought of, and I wonder what the number of women, if they were honest,
Starting point is 00:41:32 knew that it was wrong, felt that it was wrong, but just felt trapped and like, I don't have any other answer. I have to do this. Because if you do feel that it's wrong, it's not like the people who are like, oh, shout your abortion.
Starting point is 00:41:46 I like to do it on Saturdays. It's a good fresher. A way to freshen up by weekend. What is the percentage, do you think, of women who are carrying that around with them, that they did something that they knew was wrong, but they felt trapped? So Dr. David Reardon actually did a study on this. And he found that over 70% of women felt some sort of coercion or press. to have an abortion. Well, if you feel coerced into having an abortion, that's not choice.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Correct. Right? And we look at, even here in Texas, there was a bill that was put forward that did pass, but it was a bill that was put forward. And it was very simple. We know that abortion and human trafficking go hand in hand, right? We know that abortion, sex trafficking, they go hand in hand. So we had proposed a bill here in the state of Texas that required signage to go up in all public writing rooms and bathrooms just to let women know in layperson language that no one can force you to have an abortion. And it had the number for the national trafficking hotline on the sign, right?
Starting point is 00:43:17 Planned Parenthood opposed that bill. That should tell you everything you need to know about the abortion industry. They like coercion. This is how they operate their facilities. They're not interested in women having an actual choice. When a woman walks into an abortion facility, her choice is removed. because that abortion facility, those abortion workers, I'm saying this from experience, those abortion workers are taught to remove her choice.
Starting point is 00:43:59 When you say, you say this from experience, you worked, you were, in fact, an employee of the year or the year or something. Employee of the year for Planned Parenthood. Let me just switch quickly to the movie that I just saw, which is extraordinarily powerful called She Was Stronger. And you can find it at she was stronger.com. It's 30 minutes. And it's about all these women that had abortions and then became abortions, not all of them, I don't think all of them had abortions, but went to work for Planned Parenthood and performed abortions. And the turmoil that it caused in their life. How common is that?
Starting point is 00:44:44 that? So we've helped 640 abortion clinic workers leave the abortion industry and come to a place of healing. And almost every single one of them that has come through our ministry has suffered from clinical, diagnosable post-traumatic stress disorder. We have had some of our clients that have actually had to be checked into inpatient psychiatric hospitals because of what they've experienced and what they've witnessed. And what they were part of for a long time. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:45:28 You know, many of them have to go on medication temporarily or permanently. Working in the abortion industry is not normal. It's not normal to leave a job and then have PTSD. from what you've done in your job. But this is pretty commonplace for an abortion clinic worker. And so, you know, these women are not painting themselves as victims. We all made a choice to work in the abortion clinic.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yeah, I was not surprised. This is the wrong word. I was heartened by the fact that all of them were looking for forgiveness from God. Yes. You know, they weren't playing victim. They weren't blaming it on anybody else. They were just like, I made the wrong choice. Right.
Starting point is 00:46:18 And didn't know what I got into or tried to dismiss because I needed the money. Right. And one of the women in the documentary actually went to prison for 28 months because of her work with Dr. Kermit Gossnell, who is now serving a life sentence and will die in prison. But she served 28 months in prison. And she says, you know, she absolutely deserved to be in prison for what she had done. And she said the greatest moment of peace in her life came when the officers came to pick her up to take her to prison. Because she said, I finally knew that I didn't have to be silent anymore.
Starting point is 00:47:06 I could finally let it all out. Everything I needed to say, I could say it. And that's really what this film is all about. Why did she stay in for so long? Why was she? Because he was awful. Yeah. He had performed abortions on her, actually.
Starting point is 00:47:31 And he was like a family member to her. She had known him since she was 15. years old. She had actually lived with him at one point in time in her life. And she says that she felt like she owed him. And he acted like she owed him. And that's very powerful. I think the term she used when she was describing the prison time was that I needed that. Yeah. She needed that time. I think you need to be able to digest what she had gone. You know, the atonement, the reason why the Atonan is so hard, I think, for a lot of people to accept is because it's personal. It's not seen.
Starting point is 00:48:11 You didn't go someplace. It's just as personal between you and the Lord. And a lot of people can't forgive themselves. I think when you've committed a crime like that and you know it's a crime, I think prison serving your just jail time, I think is a blessing because it allows you to say, I've, I've repented and I've paid my my debt to society. So, Abby, Roe versus Wade being overturned, a great thing, a great thing. But it is also seemed to open the gates of hell.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Yeah. Right? That's true. That's true. A friend of mine said that often the greatest defeats come after the greatest victories. And I think that that's true. I feel like I have a pretty good handle on the abortion industry. the evil that swims around in their mind after being there for so long.
Starting point is 00:49:05 But I have to tell you, Glenn, I had no idea that they were going to start roaming around the country in RVs, performing abortions in RVs. That was something that had never crossed my mind that they would do. But they're doing it. It also has exposed, you know, the clinic in, where is it, New Mexico that is open by the satanic temple. You know, it has exposed them as bloodthirsty, just bloodthirsty, to where, you know, shout your abortions was one thing, but it has just become gruesome now. And it's really clearly good versus evil. Okay, so when Biden and his incredibly partisan FDA made the decision that they did,
Starting point is 00:50:08 Planned Parenthood went online. They went on their websites. They went on their social media, and they praised this decision, right, that abortion pills are now in pharmacies. That didn't make any sense, right? Because financially, this is terrible for Planned Parenthood. They've been charging $6 to $800 for medication abortion pills. in their clinics all around the country. So now that women can get them from pharmacies for like a hundred bucks, this is terrible for them. This is going to tank them financially.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Good. Right? But they're out there praising it. They're out there saying, this is fantastic. We love this. This is great. Right?
Starting point is 00:50:46 Why? Because in the end, for the abortion industry, this has never been about money. The pro-life movement has always been like, oh, it's about money, it's about money. And I've said for a long time, guys, this is not just about money. This is about child sacrifice.
Starting point is 00:51:06 It has always been about child sacrifice. And now they're saying all the quiet things out loud. Abby Johnson. And then there were none. You can find her website, abortionworker.com. And she was stronger.com. So important. Watch that documentary.
Starting point is 00:51:23 She was stronger. com.
