Welcome to the podcast. It is Pat and Stu in for Glenn today. We talk to Chad Prather. He's, of course, Blaze TV host, and he has a three-part special going on right now. BlazTV.com. You can use the code CPS if I'd like to subscribe to this. And you get a little savings. But he goes deep into the Jeffrey Epstein thing. He's got three-part special going on this week. So it's really an Epstein week. The holidays, when you think of the holidays, think Jeffrey Epstein here at the place. We go into that and the new poll that shows an incredible increase in the amount of people who believe Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself. I don't know if it's because of the T-shirts or because everyone's saying it, the hashtag, but people are definitely starting to believe that. And nothing says Happy Thanksgiving better than three broken bones in your neck. Does it?

No, definitely not. Nothing. We also go into an interesting discovery from Stacey Abrams, who is the real true governor of Georgia. She obviously won by losing by 50,000 votes. And yet had it stolen from her? She had it stolen from her, of course. What a novelist. Well, it's true.

What a novelist. She's a writer. I did not realize this. She writes sex novels. And we have some excerpts from these novels. You are not going to want to miss that. That and so much more on today's podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

We used to live in a country with wide diversity of opinions, yet we still had a basic set of shared values. We might not have had the same religion, but we could agree that life was precious. We might not have belonged to the same political party, but we could agree government should be kept small. Yeah, those days are well behind us. But that's why companies like Patriot Mobile are so important. Patriot Mobile is America's only conservative cell phone company. It's run by Patriots. These are guys who are veterans in our armed forces who believe in the good heart of this country, the way that you do.

That's why I and thousands of others have made the switch to Patriot Mobile. They're offering a special just for joining. You can upgrade your phone to a brand new Moto Z3 play for only $5 a month. That includes a 6-inch screen, expandable storage, high-quality camera, and so much more. Switching is really, really easy. You're going to save a buttload of money every single month. You're going to get the same great sell service. Not your money's not going to be going to Planned Parenthood or La Raza.

PatriotMobil.com slash Beck. Patriotmobile.com slash Beck. You get the brand new Moto Z3 play today. Supplies are limited. Patriot mobile.com slash back. You got an Epstein update here? Yeah, because look, there is a lot of divisiveness in this country today. And a lot of people are going to come around the Thanksgiving table and maybe get into some arguments.

But there's one thing that we can all come together on, which is that Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself. Exactly. I think we all could recognize that one central truth. And, I mean, I joke a little, but I mean, it is now, it's coming, it's showing up in polls now. I bet. This is going to be a thing. Like, this is going to be a thing that we all believe soon, right? Mm-hmm.

And we went back and forth a little bit about this earlier. And I don't, there's not really, like, evidence per se that, that, that he didn't kill himself. It's just so suspicious. It is. So suspicious. You can't deny it's suspicious. You have to, right?

Listen to the way this is written. I think, I don't remember who the source here in front of me. But 45% of Americans baselessly believe that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered according to an baselessly? Wait a minute. Baselessly. I mean, look, I don't like conspiracy theories at all. I like seeing the evidence.

And even with this one, like there's, there are a lot of people that, are acting in ways that don't make sense if you're trying to cover up a murder. There's a lot of people who are totally unrelated to this saying things that are not consistent or don't make a lot of sense. Why would they be involved in a cover up? It's a very far-ranging thing. And I keep coming back to the idea that if you wanted to kill Jeffrey Epstein, you had 10 years of this guy just walking around Miami.

Right? Like, you know, he was very available to kill. And he was, he had a private island. You could have just showed up when he was there, right? Like, there's a lot of ways to kill Jeffrey Epstein that are much easier than waiting until he is in a cell. Well, Bill was on the plane with him 26 times. He could have killed him right there. But this is a survey monkey poll.

And I think the idea of baselessly here is just your point. pushing it with that, right? Like, the cameras are out. Two guards fall asleep. The guy was on a suicide watch and then pulled off of it so he could commit suicide. His cellmate was taken out of the cell just hours before this happened. The guards never check him, despite the fact that they were supposed to do that every 15 minutes. I mean, there are so many things. They didn't have the paper sheets they're supposed to have the tear away instead of, you know, strangle somebody. So, I mean, how many things came together to allow him to commit suicide? It is suspicious.

It is suspicious. You can't deny it's at least suspicious. Right. I mean, there's not a lot of conspiracy theories that I buy into, but we all have our, like, little pet theory, right? I feel like there's some, and this is what I think is going to be a big one for a lot of people. I mean, we're up to half of America already that believe it, which is fast. They need to do a really thorough.

report and convince the American people if this was not something more than suicide, you really need to walk people through it, I think. Because it just doesn't seem possible. 34% believe this in August. So it's gone from 34 to 45. Wow.

In only a couple of months. Only 16% believe he died by suicide. That's down from 33%. So it's been cut in half. Wow. And the remainder is they're not sure? So 45, 16, 39% unsure. That, wow.

According to the poll. Dang, that's a high percentage of unsure too. Yeah, well, look, none of us were there. Yeah. None of us have read the report beginning to end. I mean, obviously some media people have done it, but generally speaking, no one, it's just, it's one of those things that just doesn't make sense. Mm-hmm.

I don't, like, my chosen conspiracy theory, my little pet one, which I turned out to be seemingly true, at least in a book that came out last year, was the whole John Roberts, Obamacare, he changed his mind at the last second and rewrote it and it was he was supposed to be on the side of the

conservative argument and last minute switched. It does seem like that one was actually true. Now there's, you know, the extension of that theory is that he did it for some illicit reason. Like he was hiding some secret. I tend to think it was more of a situation. Or there was something about his daughter, right?

I don't remember if that was it. Yeah, it was something where they're basically saying like, you know, he got blackmailed into changing it. I don't know if I believe that part of it, but I did believe that he changed it at the last second for some reason. And the reporting now is that he changed it kind of like, like maintain the. Yeah, he's trying to maintain his legacy or whatever.

Right. It's leaning. And something that a Supreme Court justice should never do. I mean, I talk about impeachment. There's a much better case. for Roberts than there is for Trump in my mind because that's this type of stuff you shouldn't be doing. I mean, he basically voted against what he believed was constitutional

to trade out a, you know, a favor later on. Like he tried to convince liberals to vote with him. So he changed his opinion. So they'd come along and it didn't look too partisan. Ooh. No, they never care about that. When's the last time a leftist cared about what was part, what looked partisan?

They never do. Right. They never do. Right. So, you know, that one, I don't know, you know, if that's even a conspiracy theory anymore. But this one is, it's just one of those things that I think almost everybody believes is way too suspicious. Even if you are completely fine, okay, yeah, he killed himself. Because look, there's a lot of reasons for the guy to kill himself.

Here's a guy who lived his entire life, you know, following, you know, receiving every little pleasure he wanted from every little illegal person. or illegal act that he could have maintained it from. And now he's in a jail cell. He can't do anything. His life is obviously over. He's not getting out of that cell. It's over. He's disgraced.

He's disgraced completely. Which is bizarre because really he did the things that he was caught for. You know, he's being disgraced for long ago. And he went and he went through the whole situation then came through on the other side of prison, which wasn't really prison. He was in his own private wing of a jail by himself. And then he was able to leave for 12 hours a day, six days a week to go to work.

So that's not really prison. That's not really not. That's not prison. No, it's not. But he was able to continue this lifestyle. And we don't know how many women, you know, he was with. But we do know that like when he had, this is after and women,

is not the right word. I should note women not the right word in this particular context. But he was, you know, he was sleeping with all these girls. He got caught, went to jail, then got out,

finally cleared himself of all these huge punishments. Because, I mean, you know, when you wind up luring 30, 40, 50 high school girls for, you know, for sex to your home,

I mean, you figure private wing leaving all the time, you know, in a year or so, it's about right for a punishment. Mm-hmm. unbelievable, right? Mm-hmm.

But he continues to, like, for example, he continues, has reporters over for interviews to his house in New York. And who answers the door? Like a teenage girl. 19-year-old girls from like the Eastern Bloc. Yeah. Like, this is not a good... Amazing story.

It's amazing. I mean, he was a bad dude. The best of the Glenn Beck program. Hey, it's Glenn, and you're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Apparently, Bernie's released some details about his tax proposal. We talked about Elizabeth Warren yesterday and her 500.

No, 158% was all it was. Not 500%. Just 158% of everything you make. And to be clear, 500% is a little too high. That's excessive. Yeah. That's more than your fair share. 158% though.

That's reasonable. I think it's too low, personally, because these bastard billionaires shouldn't even exist. Right. How about the time that they were like, they had Tom Steyer on the stage and they tried to go an argument out of the candidates. They're like, you know, Elizabeth Warren says that billionaire should not even exist. And Bernie Sanders says billionaire should not even exist. Tom Steyer, how do you feel about that? I too believe that billionaire shouldn't exist.

It's like, oh, shut up, you, wuss. I mean, it's just pathetic. But Bernie is a guy who's going to fund these plans, and he's honest about it. But we know that Bernie is going to make sure that the rich are paying for this. Because how much money do you need? You know what I mean?

And we say the rich. And sometimes that's a little difficult to define because there's not a number you put on that. But Bernie was willing to actually put a number on it yesterday. And he told you about the tax. going to hit you if you happen to be rich. Probably not you because the number is so high that how many Americans are going to be included in this tax?

Oh, I mean, it's top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1%. Yeah. It's just, I mean, when you hear the figure, you're going to laugh because you're going to realize I can work my whole life and never earn that much money. Right? Well, here's Bernie explaining his plan. Okay. What we will do, what we will do is.

have a 4% tax on income exempting the first $29,000. All right, good. Wait, what? You're better at arithmetic than I am. Because what that means is if you're that average family in the middle, who makes $60,000 a year, that means it would tax you on $31,000 at 4%. There you go.

So don't worry about it because you're, it's only the wealthiest. Yep. 93% of Americans. Right. Exactly. And you're probably, if you're listening to the show right now, what are the odds that you happen to be in the wealthiest 93%. I mean, it's...

I mean, if you make $29,000... Yeah, you can afford to shave a little money off of that. You're not even going to miss that 4%. You won't miss it. And you probably, like, if you're sitting in your car right now, you're like, I don't even know what would be like to earn $29,000 a year. It's too much money. I mean, you've got a Bugatti.

Right. You've got a Porsche. Probably a Lamborghini. A Lamborghini. Yeah. couple yachts. You live in a 50,000 square foot home. Yeah, probably, well, maybe 40,000.

It depends at what area. If you're in Southern California, you could probably only afford 40,000 square feet. But if you may be in the middle of the country, you get 50,000. I mean, think about that. That's $29,000. $1,000. Yeah, think about that. If you could go to the bank, you could pull all that $29,000 out.

You could lay it all out with individual ones. It would stack super high. Maybe to the whole ceiling. I'll bet it'd be over an inch. I'll bet it'd be over an inch high. Maybe. that stack of bills. And I mean, now when you're raking all this cash in,

if you are the type of person out there and you live this lifestyle, if you make over $29,000 a year, I would love to hear your story. Because I used to love Robin Leach doing lifestyles of the rich and famous. Yeah, you remember? Yeah. And they would just go in, they'd just be like, look at this whole house as marble.

And then they have a slide to get down to their car. These people make a whopping, $29,000 a year. He said that how many times? Oh. And you're like, oh my gosh, imagine if I could grow up and get to that level, you know, you would just be like, I'm so rich. I actually want more taxes because I am having an issue counting my money. Yeah.

It just piles up so fast. And the guilt factor that you've taken so much from society. Well, at some point, you got to have. You made enough money. You made enough money. Mm-hmm. It's true. And we've heard that.

many times. Yes. So if you happen to be one of these spectacular people among us that earn over, over $29,000 a year, we'd love to hear your story of wealth. But beyond that, I think the truth here is that Bernie is at least being honest. Yeah, that's crazy. Did you imagine the balls? 29. Now, you're exempted. You're like 29,000. 29,000? That's the cutoff point. And that means that this tax will hit literally everyone who is not in poverty. Yes. That is like legitimately what happens here. It's the poverty.

Probably 29,000 is probably the poverty. It may very well be the reason to it. In some, like in California, in New York, it's probably more than that. Yeah, it varies because, you know, it also varies on how many kids you have and whether you're married and all these different things. But it's right around, it's right around here. And like that, I will say. I do give him credit for actually blurting that out. Yeah, I can too.

$29,000 a year, this tax will hit you. And you'll be paying more and more and more and more and more and more and more to the federal government until basically they just have the whole thing. And that's just his wealth tax, right? That's just a four. I think that was for the health care stuff. So he's going to take, he's going to give you, it's four percent. There's a four percent tax.

It's actually four. For health care. Right. So they just take that out of your. and it goes into the healthcare. And then. And what that does for you is, of course, you get to wait in line a really long time for your surgeries.

Yes. Which is nice. You get a place in line, though. You're guaranteed a place in line. Now, you might not ever get to the surgery. You may die before the surgery. Well, you might. But you're in line.

Yeah. And what else are they supposed to do? Sometimes it only takes nine, ten months to get the surgery, though, that you need. That's it. Yeah, that's it. You can't wait nine or ten months. This is what's happening in this country. People are making $29,000 a year.

They're all spoiled. And there are some service. I was told by the, by my surgeon who did my neck surgery. He probably makes, to me, I don't think he makes 29,000 for that job, but he probably makes a good 15. But I think 15 to 16,000 ish, you know, but he said, he was saying if, because I started with the injections, you know, to kind of calm it down and stuff. Yeah. It works for a few minutes, but then after a while it goes away.

But anyway, he was saying, now if you lived in Canada. you couldn't even get it. They don't even offer it. They don't offer the injections. You can't do it. Yeah. So you've got to go directly to surgery immediately, even though the injection would be a heck of a lot cheaper and easier to do. And but they don't, they don't do it.

Wow. So you just suffer until you can get surgery. And that's scheduled off, you know, six months in advance. Yeah. Look, I mean, that's nuts. It's ridiculous. And, you know, the $29,000. thing is an incredible line. I mean, look, you work your ass off for, I've worked many years for less than $29,000.

You know, doing good solid work is a great thing and there's nothing to be ashamed of for making $29,000 a year. You certainly shouldn't be attacked for it though. No. You know, it shouldn't be attacked for having, for being so wealthy that you're making $29,000 a year. That's ridiculous. And the idea that this is the solution to our healthcare problems is a real issue. There's a place in, in Oklahoma, uh that does uh they decided to just kind of just change the way medicine has done and we talk about this free market health care thing all the time but it never comes to fruition well they decided to just do it so it was a couple doctors uh the main guy is an anesthesiologist and they started this surgery center and they now post all of the prices for their surgery online you go to their website

all right this is this one's three thousand dollars that's how much it costs they don't take any They don't deal with it at all. You have to go in and you have to pay for it. However, you know exactly what it costs, right? You know, and it's much cheaper than the other places around are charging. They don't jack up prices to try to get insurance money. They don't do any of that. They just, and they have highly qualified people who come in and do these things and they do them well.

Are they doing well? And they're doing really well with it. They're doing really well with it. In fact, I think it's been open for, you know, 15 or 18 years now. Wow. And they have not raised their prices since they opened. Their prices are the same.

That's pretty amazing. Opened. Wow. Think about that. And here's something that it's in the real world. It's actually happening. It's working. Is it dominating the conversation even for conservatives?

No. Why? Instead, we're talking about, well, look, of course we have to keep all of these big programs that already exist. but let's not slightly expand them or really, really expand them. That's the debate. Oh, we're going to keep, like Obamacare, like remember there was a time, do you guys remember this,

when Republicans said getting rid of Obamacare was a priority? When's the last time you heard anybody say that? 2016. Now it's all, oh, well, of course we have to keep that. But what we'd like to do is do this slight improvement here and there and try to change this or that. What happened? Instead, now, it's everything we said about Obamacare is coming true.

It first of all, hasn't worked. Second of all, and we know, by the way, we know. It was more expensive. It's more expensive. And we know it doesn't work because every single Democrat who is running for president against it. They're all saying how bad it is that we have to improve it. Now, they don't say it in those words, but they all have plans to double and triple the size of it or change it completely. So we know they don't think it's working.

We also told you that was coming. Yep. That was the next step, in fact, is that... It's a Trojan horse. It's a Trojan horse. Well, it's not really a Trojan horse, is it? We're just saying it's right there. It's right there.

We're telling you. That's what the architect of the plan said. Yes. And nobody believed it, I guess. Conspiracy theory. Yeah. And now we're to a point where it has changed from an issue that was very unpopular for Democrats to one that is now part of what.

we have. We can't take it away from the people who need it. It's no longer a thing where Republicans are even saying it needs to go away. What they're saying is, well, look, it's there and we can't get rid of it. But we can improve, you know, this one percent of it. That's what happens with these entitlements. It becomes, as soon as people start getting it, then it becomes part of society, part of our social contract, which I don't remember signing. And it is something that dominates. Just like Medicare and Social Security. Yeah. Same thing.

I mean, there were at the time, lots of conservatives who pointed out, hey, Social Security, that just sounds like a giant redistribution of wealth program. Yeah, it's like at its very best, it sounds like the government forcing you to save. And I love the fact that Democrats now say, well, Republicans were saying back then that it was socialism. Yeah. Yeah, because it was. And it is. And people might have gotten used to it now.

And so even some Republicans love it now. Oh, it's very popular these programs. Well, of course they are. You made it part of their life. The average person gets more than two times the amount that they put in out of Social Security. And Medicare is even worse. I mean, Medicare is absolutely the main thing bankrupting this country right now. And, you know, the fact that they don't even means tested that Bill Gates can get Medicare if he wants is completely ridiculous.

We all understand that there's a good motivation behind. that program, but maybe if you didn't take our money, our entire lives, and spent it on crap, we'd be able to pay for our own retirement. We'd be able to pay for our own insurance after we retire. You know, instead, we have these programs, and I think a completely underrated worst president of all-time nominee is Lyndon Johnson, never gets, never gets the attention he deserves when you talk about the worst presidents in U.S. history. But he deserves that title. He's definitely down there. Yeah, he's definitely down there.

Yeah, he is. And he created all these programs that are creating all this debt. And now we have Democrats creating even more programs that will double and triple down on these ideas that didn't work. And Republicans barely bring it up anymore. I mean, when's the lot, you do not hear Republicans make arguments about debt and deficit anymore. No, you don't. It's just not a thing right now. And it's embarrassing.

It's embarrassing. Because if these things actually mattered to us, and I know. We've made these arguments. I know people in the audience are making these arguments all the time. But, you know, if you didn't believe it then, and you were making the arguments, then you're just playing the same crappy brand of politics that every politician plays. If you care about the debt and the deficit, people in Washington right now deserve heat for it because they're not addressing it at all, at all.

We love her because she gets just incredible amounts of material. I mean, she's basically a fountain of youth for talk radio material.

So no matter what you have, you can always say, what did Maxine say yesterday? It's always going to be something dumb. You always have that there. You can always find whatever it is, and you can do an entire show about it. So here is Maxine. This is the most recent example. She's talking about Ben Carson. I believe it was MSNBC.

Listen. Well, you know, I sent him a letter, and he sent me a letter, you know, claiming that I had no manners, et cetera. I basically said to my staff, I really don't have time. time to be bothered with somebody who doesn't know the difference between REO and OEO. I mean, you know, this guy just doesn't have the background, the capability, the intelligence to do the job. He doesn't know what he's doing.

He doesn't care about this issue. He rises to the occasion to basically support this president any opportunity that he gets. And so I'm going to be so happy when they're all out of here. They're hurting our country. They're undermining our democracy and they're being very destructive. And I hope the American people can see that if we allow this president and his cabinet to get away with what they're doing, they will be destroying, you know, the presidency and that office forever.

Oh, my gosh. I'm sorry, is she calling a black man stupid? She does. She is a black neurosurgeon. Wow. She's calling a neurosurgeon. They're right. Stupid.

Huh. That's a fascinating. fascinating claim. Now, Ben Carson, you can say you don't like his policies. Uh-huh. You can say you don't like the way- demeanor, maybe he's a little too sleepy for you. Yeah, I can see that.

But not intelligent? But not intelligent. That does not compute, especially from someone like Maxine Waters. How many dumb neurosurgeons do you know? Oh, tons. I'll tell you, man. If I've seen one. One of the fastest growing segments of our population are dumb neurosurgeons.

People don't know that. They're all over the, place. Just doing their neurosurgery in a dumb way. That's what they do. Every day they wake up and just go in there and they just do a complicated neurosurgery. Just messing around in your brain

and they're too stupid to know which parts of the brain to connect or remove. Yeah. I mean, if you've ever watched The Simpsons, Ben Carson's basically Dr. Nick. He's the guy who comes out and he just kind of fumbles his way through all the surgeries. And it's just

It's just loving and hilarious. Oh, you've paralyzed to me. That's Ben Carson. Now, it's weird because I've seen he's won all these awards and all these incredible things that no one had ever done before in the field. But he's basically just a moron. And I guess he just lucked his way into fixing all those people. That's a great story.

And separating Siamese twins at the brain. I mean, how hard is that, though? It's not hard. What's the big deal? I mean, you put scissors in between them and you cut. I don't know. I mean, how hard could it be? It's just as a moron.

Any moron can do that. You go to Home Depot. You get some hedge clippers. Right. And you just snip. And you just snip, snip, snip, snip. Done. And then they're separated.

And you say, nurse, sew them back up. Yeah. Because I bet he's not even doing the sewing. I bet he's not. I bet he's not. You get a little sewing machine. You put their heads under there. You press the pedal.

I don't know how it works exactly with something like that. Any moron could do it. It's not that big of a deal. Right. So she makes a really good point there, obviously. She's made a lot of really good points over the years, though. And boys, I'm concerned that Tea Party can go straight to hell. They say to me all the time you appear to be angry. If you're black and American, you're not a little bit mad, you crazy.

Stop sending those dog whistles to white supremac. Today we declare we're not taking it anymore. This liberal will be all about. about socializing. Uh-oh. Oh, no. Oh, no. It would be about.

Something else. Something else. Something else. What is the word? What is the word? Basically. Basically. Taking over.

Taking over. And the government running all of your companies. Keep your nasty comments away from us. We're rallying and we're protesting. Yeah. You don't intimidate us. You don't scare us. We're going to fight against you and your policies.

We are going to strike. We're going to do everything necessary to show you you cannot take this country down the path that you think you're going to take it down. Don't ever let me see again in life. Those Republicans in our hall on our screens talking about anything. These are demons. They're demons. Demons, okay. Literally demonizing.

These are legislators. who are destroying this country. Man. So she knows. Are they demons or are they legislators trying to destroy the country? I feel like those are two moderately different things.

She is one of these people that just opens the mouth and about two minutes after she's done speaking tries to figure out what she's saying. There's no plan going in. You know, it's like Ben Carson with his neurosurgery. He doesn't know what he's.

doing when he goes in there. He just starts cutting, as we mentioned. Start cutting things and connecting tubes and see what happens. You know, the person will walk afterwards. I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. We'll see. That's Ben Carson.

The guy just, you know, he just is just a haphazard guy when it comes to his neurosurgery. I mean, it's unbelievable. It is. And one really interesting clip that you played there was Maxine Waters. And she does this all the time, saying essentially, well, they always call black people angry. And that's, of course, we should be angry. But there's that sort of undercurrent there of if you call,

if you criticize a black person, then you don't like black people. You see, oh, they're all angry. Only black people are angry. And this is very standard left-wing procedures. It's the same thing they do with Soros, right? It's like, well, George Soros, you're only criticizing him because he's Jewish. The fact that he, and by the way, he is an. atheist. But the, you know, I mean, like, no one has, there's no criticism of him because he's

Jewish. Like, that's, that's not, there's nothing to do with it. It's a, right. It's, there's no, there's no part of that that connects. That's you. That is you coming up with that, uh, conclusion. Not me. It's, I, yeah, yeah, it's you. It's you're saying, oh, well, it must be because he's Jewish. Well, why are you saying that? Right. It's not what we're saying. Why are you saying it? And, and, and, uh, with waters, it's the same. It's the same. thing here where she absolutely will criticize any Republican who criticizes

an African American and those she'll say it's because of race. But here she is criticizing an African American calling him stupid. It's perfectly fine. Yeah. You know, I kind of tend to think that the color of your skin should not dictate whether that's okay. Right? You should be able

to be able to criticize anyone you want no matter what the color of their skin is as long as you're not criticizing him for the color of their skin. Now you're making a crazy talk. I know. Back in the 60s with ALK.

That guy said kind of the same thing you just did. It's insane. What a maroon. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Like listening to this podcast?

If you're not a subscriber, become one now on iTunes. But while you're there, do us a favor and rate the show. A major problem in our country, Pat, which is we have, I believe, 607 billionaires in this nation and only three are running for president right now.

We need to get that number up. I want to get it to at least half. I mean, are they, they just don't care about their country? The other, the other 604 just don't care. They don't care. Wow. You know, they're just fumbling their way through neurosurgery, probably. With Ben Carson.

That's what they're doing. Mark Cuban is making some noise. Now, I don't think he's jumping in to run for president. And I mean, can we possibly have any more people who are running for president? Well, we could. I guess we could. I keep saying we can't. And then Deval Patrick jumps in.

And then Michael Bloomberg jumps in. Who else has jumped in recently? Steyer jumped in late. Yeah. There has been, it just keeps, they keep coming to go away. The rumors persist that maybe Hillary gets in. I don't know. I don't believe that.

Yeah. I believe it for a while. I'm not sure now. We're past the filing deadlines in New Hampshire. But not Iowa. That's not in. the end of the, I think the end of the year, like December 30th or something. Is it really that late?

I think it is. So you'd have to skip New Hampshire if you wanted, which is what Bloomberg is doing. I don't know. I mean, I don't know if Deval Patrick qualified, but I mean, that's, I guess he probably must have because that's his only chance of competing. I mean, this is the next door state, even though he still has no chance. Mark Cuban was asked, because people noticed Yahoo! Yahoo Finance that he had registered

Democracy.com. Now he's not doing anything with it. But it's Democracy.com. And the question was, well, what are you planning to do with Democracy.com? He says, Cuban says that he registered it because he didn't want it to be used by someone with a political agenda.

What? What? That's what he said. Okay. Now, he of course is the Mavs owner, a guy on Shark Tank. and he says you know you should see all the domains I own I rarely sell any and when he was pressed about it he said

and you can do this you can play along right now if you're in front of your computer if you're on your phone right now play along here Pat okay I'm going to play along go to the president.com the president dot com just having a tough time the president

dot com all right oh it's access to TV it's his website Magnolia Pictures It's Cuban companies All the Cuban companies Yeah

So he asked Can you imagine this guy runs for president He's got his website is Thepresident dot com That's a solid marketing tactic Very weird I don't know I mean I feel like

Trump has opened this door up And like all these guys think They can be president now Because they all think Do you think he's He's considering a run? I do think I mean he's talked about

He has enough And he's talking about the fact that he can beat Trump, he thinks. He thinks he can't. There's no way he could, but he thinks he could. I don't know where he fits exactly because he, you know, they talked for a while. They're like, oh, he's a libertarian. He's not a libertarian. He's not libertary. But he's also, and he's not really Republican. And he's certainly with this field, definitely not a Democrat. I mean, he doesn't, he's, he'd be way into the right of a Michael Bloomberg.

Yeah. I think so. He is a legitimately pro-business guy, but has a lot of policies that, you know, we wouldn't like as conservatives. you know, big health care initiatives and all the other, all the rest. But, I mean, at least he's, he has the same, the things that you like about Trump where he's a guy who is a business person and understands those things. He has those attributes, but we already have that guy in office, right? Yeah.

So I don't know what the thirst would be for a Mark Cuban candidacy at this point. And again, if you're a billionaire, why do you want that job? Oh, gosh. I don't like talking about it. A mega patriot. And you believe you're the only one who can fix it. I can understand you taking the shot then. But why would you want this hassle?

Why would you open up yourself to all of this madness? I wouldn't want anything to do with it. If I was a billionaire, I'm just enjoying my life. I'm not running for president. I mean, you know, and you know, I mean, you don't have to be a billionaire. You just have to be massively wealthy to understand that, like earning over $29,000 a year. If you were, if you earn. Well, I can only dream.

I can only dream of that. Yeah, that's never going to happen. But Bernie Sanders thinks you're rich at 29K a year. I mean, I think Mark might earn more than that. It's possible. But when you're a billionaire, think of your life, right? Every decision you've made works out. Everything that you think is smart, is smart, and everyone tells you is smart.

It's understandable why you'd think you'd be the only guy who could fix whatever problem you're addressing. And I'm sure that's why Bloomberg's in there. Trump himself said that's why he was in there. Steyer, I'm sure, is the same way. And Cuban's probably the same way. I mean, you could find, we can get a point where everybody running for president is a billionaire. We're not that far away, kids. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Some good news because CBS is going to produce a drama based on Stacey Abrams romance novels. Wait, Stacey Abrams, the true governor of Georgia. Georgia, yes. The election was stolen from her. and even though she lost by 50,000 votes, it was stolen from her. I will say this too. You bastards out there

who think if Trump loses, it could be fixed and you're going to complain about this afterwards. You bastards. By the way, Stacey Abrams is the rightful governor of Georgia. The fact that the left continually, Elizabeth Warren just says it. She said the other day it was like,

oh, well, it's actually Stacey Abrams seat and it was taken from her. Like, no. That is not. not what happened. That is not what happened. She lost. Right. She lost the election. It's over.

Get over it. They can't. They can't. They won't. So in 2004, she published a book, and she's done several since. But this one was under the name Selena Montgomery, one of eight novels she's written under that name. The book was entitled Never Tell, and it follows the tale of a criminal psychologist, with a dark past who works with an investigative journalist who is searching for a serial killer in New Orleans.

So CBS is doing a full series on this. Pretty amazing. We were able to get a few excerpts from a few of her books, not just Never Tell, but we do have that as well. I'm interested in this because this is something the left gets to do that the right would never be able to do. Right. Like, no one cares about Stacey Abrams and her romance novels.

Nobody cares about them. No one. There's no reason for this series to exist, right? It's absolutely no chance of it being good. Nobody's ever heard of Stacey Abrams' romance novels. How much money did Netflix give Barack Obama to produce television shows? Well, some rumors have it at $100 million, others at $50 million. But whatever it was, it was a lot.

Tens of millions of dollars. What? What have they proven? Well, they did that Chinese thing, you know, the Chinese companies in America, Chinese workers in America. What was it called? I don't know. I did not watch it, so I don't remember the title. But yeah, they got a lot of money for that.

A lot of money for that. Now we'll see. You're going to really be excited about the series when you hear her incredible writing skill. These are a few sentences I can read out of paragraphs. This one from Sebastian Cain and Dr. Caitlin Lida in Secrets and Lies. Her book Secrets and Lies. It's saucy. And this is a paragraph.

I can read part of one sentence. Wow. Yeah. Not the full sentence. No, I can't. No. But with urgency, she accepted him

fascinated by the power and for a moment she wavered wondering if she was prepared in the next second she knew she never could be tell me that's not powerful

tell me really bad versions of like the the trash at like airports yes that you get at a yes with Fabio on the cover the five

$5 rack at an airport. And I guess like this has been 50 shades of gray has made this into somewhat of an industry. Is that what she's going for her? I think so, yeah. Now from her book, Hidden Sins, there are two sentences I can read from a paragraph.

Oh. Yeah. So this is exciting. Two full sentences. Watch me love you. He commanded silently. Wait, how did he? How did it Wait, he commanded silently? Wait, hold on. Wait, watch me love you. Watch me love you.

He commanded silently. That's a good point. I guess with his look, with his steely gaze. You could say, hey, come over here silently because you could like wave your arm or you could How would you say, what is it again? Watch me love you. No, you're supposed to just get that from the look he's giving you.

What is that look? I don't know what that expression is. It's a lot of expressions. I'm not. I'm not going to attempt it here on radio and TV because. Please don't. I don't want you to watch me love you. It'd be obscene.

Okay. And I'm not going to do it. it. But watch me love you. He commanded silently. Like, she just came up with her. She had a random collection of words that you just thought silently went there. Like, he has

to do that audibly. He can only command that audibly. Yeah, but you'd let me get to the next sentence. I can't get past the silently thing. It's driving me crazy. Know that I will always be a part of you. Now, I don't know if he actually spoke that out loud. It doesn't

say, or if that was silently as well. You know, all good writers explain that completely. Yes. They do. They always say exactly how they commanded a thing if it's audibly or silently. And she didn't do that here. It's a big mistake. Right. First thing you learn in writing class, make sure you say how people are commanded. Are they commanded audibly? Or are they commanded silently? Who knows? This is on the level of, um, uh, are you familiar with the podcast? My, uh, my dad wrote a porn? No. No. It's, it is amazing. The story is the, this guy finds out that his dad has been writing these types of books. He just decided because of like 50 Shades of Grey to start writing

like an X-rated novel. This guy's dad. So what they decided to do for a podcast is for all of them. And I think it's an HBO show now too. It's a really big podcast. But they decided to do is it's like three people and they just sit around and he reads the entire book. Think of your dad and it's really filthy. I mean it is filthy but horribly written like Stacey Abrams

level writing. So it's really funny. He's making fun of his dad. He's making fun of his dad and it's just so awkward because you're reading like the sex fantasies of your dad and then at the same time no thank you. He doesn't seem to really understand the

female anatomy all that well. So So he writes things. You're like, does he think that's how this works? It's utterly unbelievable, but it's about the level of writing from Stacey Abrams here. There's one more sentence from this. Before we get to take a break up for 60 seconds. Are you commending me audibly right now to stop talking? I commend you audibly, yes, because I got to get to this line because it's powerful.

Sighs and pleas and moans mingled in enthralled chorus. Right? Is that beautiful or what? Sighs. Sise. And please. And please. And moans.

Mingled. They mingled. In an enthralled chorus. So apparently there was a choir in there in the bedroom with them. Right. They were singing while the act was happening. And which he doesn't include there. It was all silent.

All the size and moans and pleas were silent. They were silently commanded. Yes. The chorus to sing. She should have included that. Because I don't know. I heard it. When I'm picturing this, I can't think of, am I hearing things or is it quiet? It's hard to figure out. I don't know. I don't know because she doesn't specifically mention whether this is allowed or silent in this particular passage.

Wait, hold on. The best of the Glenn Beck program. Pat and Stufer Glenn on the Glenn Beck program, AAA 727BECK. Our very own Chad Braither doing a really cool special all this week. did it last night has it tonight and then tomorrow night three-parter three-part series on the weirdness of Jeffrey Epstein now that's not the name of it but Chad joins us now hey Chad hey good morning yeah there's a lot of weirdness there yeah in fact he he kind of had a cult or something to himself didn't he want to impregnate a bunch of women and send him all over the world with his seed? Something to that effect.

Yeah, well, you know, people hear this stuff and they think that it's pure fiction because it reads like something out of a Michael Crichton novel. And we were, we were, you know, as Candace Ortiz, you know, our editorial producer was doing research, we were looking into these things, and we discovered that one of the things that Epstein found was that they were collecting the sperm of Nobel Prize recipients, and they were putting it together in a lab because they felt that the world was getting dumber, and that is their word, quote, dumber. And I have to agree with

them in that regard. What they were doing is they were wanting to start this whole new, this whole generation of smart people. And they were going to, and so Epstein heard this. Now, first of all, what you have to understand for a guy who accomplished so much, based on his history, Epstein

was not a smart people. He was not a smart guy. He was a college dropout that was a horrible math and science teacher at the high school level. And so when you learn more of these things about it. That's exactly what he wanted to do. He wanted to generate a whole world of Epstein's out there. And that's what he was going to do. We're going to talk about that tonight on the special. The tonight's episode is called The Devil Has Blue Eyes. And that was their

whole thing is they were going to bring in 20 girls at a time, impregnate them. They had to sign away all rights to the child. And it was going to be raised by, of course, Epstein and his Jelaine Maxwell, who was sort of the queen to his whole chess set there that made all the connections for him and kind of ran the ring. He wanted to raise 20 children by himself with Giselle? Really? You know, one would think he would have some help out there. But, I mean, that when you start seeing how big it is, it really is cult-like. And that's one of the things that people don't realize.

And that's the dangerous place that we kind of stepped into because we start talking about the King Ranch in New Mexico. A lot of people think of the King Ranch in Texas, two totally different things. Of course, Bruce King was at one time the governor of New Mexico, and they passed down political positions like family heirlooms in New Mexico. They owned most of not only New Mexico ranch lands, but they also are the major producer of corn in the U.S. So they're a big, big family. And in most interviews, when they talk about the King Ranch, and I'll tell you why that's significant a second, they actually bleep out that name. They bleep out the king name. But Epstein's New Mexico compound, of course, we know about the Virgin Islands, the little James Island that he flew, you know, the Lolita Express to.

What they don't know is that he had a 10,000 acre compound with a 27,000 square foot home right in the middle of the King Ranch. You could not get to it unless you went over it or through the King Ranch. So he, in essence, isolated himself with one of the most political families, most powerful families in New Mexico. It was like building a moat around your ranch. You were completely inaccessible. And now we're starting to see these pictures that are emerging from, you know, the king for, I should say, what he called the Zorro ranch there in the middle of New Mexico. So that's where he was going to do that. It's a pretty creepy place when you think about just down the road.

There is a therapy place for Catholic priests that were caught in pedophilia. there is a home for orphans that was co-founded by French Charles. There's a number of different things. It's, of course, where they, not far from where they tested the atomic bombs, and again, set up a lot of the Nazi war criminals that they brought in to do genetic testing and create these things. So New Mexico was a place for cryogenics, eugenics, and transhumanism, which is exactly what he's trying to accomplish and bringing these kids in.

So there's so many things that people don't know about the life of Jeffrey Epstein that are weird, They think, well, here's a guy. He's dead. We're glad he's dead. But his legacy lives on in a big way because he was not doing these things by himself. And the people he was doing him with are still very much alive. And so that's kind of the angle we tell the story from. And honestly, Pat and Stu, whenever we tell this story, the average American, they look at the memes or they say Epstein didn't kill himself, and that's all we have a good chuckle at that. But most people can't even tell you where Epstein got his money from to begin. with. So there's a big story that's under the surface that a lot of people don't know. We know about the guy who was convicted as a child predator, as a sex offender in the late

2006, 2007, 2008. We know about that guy who really never served any time, never even reported to a parole officer. But it's how he reinvented himself after that by associating with the Elon Musk's, the Bill Gates, the Stephen Hawking, of the world.

These are the people that, and I'm not accusing them of any form of pedophilia, of course, but it was how he tried to rebuild his influence, and ultimately the goal for him was immortality. It's really, it's a weird story. First of all, I don't even know how one would go about obtaining the seed from Nobel Prize winners. I don't know. Is there a prize, is there a website that you go to for that, Chad?

I don't even know how that occurs. You know, my first thought, my first thought is I wanted to question Barack Obama. Maybe he's got a It's funny Because he really Tried to rebuild his credibility After the arrest By these sort of like association

He would try to find the He donated tons of money To universities and Centers that were On the cutting edge of science And tried to kind of play himself off as the scientist When he, I mean he wasn't And he tried to do this thing

where he just basically tried to associate himself back into the good graces of, you know, finds upstanding society. It sort of worked for a long time. It worked well, and that's interesting. We go back to where we started from. Here's a college dropout who's now associating himself, and they're actually identifying almost as a colleague in Harvard science schools. You know, he donates 40 million.

to what he was kind of into. And not only that, they've never given a dime back. MIT actually received a large donation. They started giving some money back to disassociate themselves. But you're talking about a guy who's basically his madam, if you will, his child procurer, his female procurer, Jelaine Maxwell, who is still at large. We don't really know where she is. you know, she was at Hillary Clinton's, I'm sorry, not Hillary. She was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding.

She's been on three or four vacations with Chelsea Clinton. This is a person who was highly associating, and it wasn't just about wealth. It was about being able to have secrets. His wealth was really not in money as much as it was in been able to buy people's secrets, and those are the secrets we still don't know. We're starting to see things get uncovered with Prince Andrew. I find it somewhat humorous that now the queen is stepping in and won't let him have his 60th birthday party because of this. And this is a guy who just last week on the BBC was talking about how much he doesn't like to potay.

So now guess what? Good thing you don't like to party because you're not getting one. And so there's some where there's smoke, there's fire, and there's things that are there. And that's what we've tried to do in these three episodes to say, look, yeah. He may be on an island with a facelift. We don't know, but the legacy of it and the danger of it still lives on. So how did he make most of his money? Where did that billion come from?

Well, you know, so first of all, what he did was he got into Bear Stearns. He was a high school tutor. He was having inappropriate relationships at the high school. He was at the Danbury School, which is a very elite school in New York. He was having inappropriate relationships with the students. He was a terrible teacher. He tried to make extra money on the side. He gained the attention of someone named Lynn Keppel. Her father was actually the CEO at the time of Bear Stearns. He liked his moxies, so to speak. He liked his hustle. And so he was doing really, really well at Bear Stearns the first year and only year he was there. And then he decided to resign, even though he was just killing it financially for them. He resigned saying he was going on to bigger and better opportunities. And that's the first side. of his MO, and that is he was taking Bear Stearns money and using it to buy influence. So he was giving people loans, in essence embezzling, but he wasn't keeping the money for himself.

He was buying influence with powerful people, and he started the Jay Epstein Company. He associated himself with numerous people like Wes Lexner, who also, of course, things like the Limited and Bath and Body Works and Victoria's Secret. And he, and Wexner would even, and this is just one example, Wexner would turn all of his assets over to Epstein as a financial counselor. And Epstein would even replace people on their advisory board that were family members. And they'd say, no, you don't need that person. And then these multimillionaires would come to Epstein and he would say, you have too much money. It's too dangerous.

People are going to steal it from you. So let me manage it for you. So in essence, he was stealing their money. So this is the thing that, you know, he winds up with like $460 million after being involved with a Hoffenberg Ponzi scheme, which is the world's biggest Ponzi scheme that we've ever known. Hoffenberg, of course, goes to jail for 18 years. Epstein doesn't see a day in jail. And, of course, it was the New York City Municipal Court. Who's there, guess who appointed that court?

Of course, it was Bill Clinton, it was president at the time. It's so weird. You make such a great point on how he used. It wasn't about his money. It was about the way that he sort of like was willing to cross lines like crazy in every part of his life, but do it with a respectable face. So people could associate with this really rich guy who seemed really accomplished and smart. And no one would suspect that behind the scenes he was willing to cross all these lines. I mean, you look at the stuff he did in Miami with the girls.

It's not just like he was hooking up with young girls. The guy built a gigantic system to allow himself with recruitment, with how to import them, how to hide it, what to ask for. They had a whole system. I mean, even go to when he's in prison and he's supposed to be in a cell and doesn't want to be in a cell. So he pays his way to have lawyers be there basically every minute he's awake. So he's in meetings with lawyers and he doesn't actually have to stay in the cell.

This is before his death. I mean, he was a way, he was able to bend and break rules to create systems to allow otherwise respectable people to do things that are not respected. Yeah, and you take, you take someone like Bill Gates, who is on record of saying, you know, hey, he's a very interesting guy with very interesting ideas. You know, when Stephen Hawking is hanging around, these guys, they weren't interested in his brain. they were interested in his influence and his money in that regard of the things that he could get done with his charm. And even when he was in prison before he died, there would be people who, other prisoners who would have $100 here and there that would just show up in their commissary account. And it was coming from Epstein. So even when he was in jail, he was buying influence and buying these favors.
