I feel a little unprepared for today's program. I do not know where the Queen's coffin is. Oh, my gosh. Right now. Because of second by second coverage, we now know that it's in the northwest corner of the bowroom at Westminster Abbey.

Oh, no, no, no. It's not. It's on the move now. It's on the move. Okay. Well, that's what I mean. Second by second. Second by second. It's on the move. And I can't give you the GPS coordinates of it right now. Can you give me the latitude and the longitude? No. You know, we sound like we're making fun of the coverage of it. Yeah. It's crazy. She was the greatest, I think, leader for the Western world of the 20th century.

For our society, I think she was a tremendous example. Tremendous example. Her kids are, well, let's move on. There's a couple of things going on. I want you to know about.

New York has gone absolutely insane with their gun laws. Now, the governor of New York is banning houses of worship from allowing congregants to be, armed. Last week, I was in the city of Florence, Italy. It spent a week there and didn't see a machine gun, didn't see really armed police other than just regular police, except when I went to the synagogue. And I didn't even know it was the synagogue of the first time I went by it. We were driving by it. And all of a sudden, there were all of these stanchions out and armed people with

automatic weapons. And I thought, whoa. And I said, what, what's happening here? And the driver just looked to me and said, oh, it's the synagogue. Like, yeah, that's every day. Jews are under attack. This may mean something to you in your Christian church, but to Jewish

people, this is extraordinarily dangerous. But they don't seem to care. Svi Waldman is with us. He is with a New York State Jewish gun club. He's the founder of it. And he's one of the guys ringing the bell saying, this is really dangerous for Jews. Hello, Svi. How are you?

Hi, thanks for having me, Glenn. You bet. So tell me what the situation is in New York. So basically, right now, if you are a low-abiding citizen that went through the proper procedures in New York State to obtain a pistol permit, you are not allowed to carry in your shoe. You're actually a felon. Even if your rabbi writes a letter giving you consent, it doesn't matter. you're a felon. So we're basically sitting ducks. Yeah, but Svi, you can hire a former policeman or a policeman. I mean, why don't you just hire somebody? The last time I checked, like for the freedom of speech, there's no need to hire a spokesperson.

Yeah. I believe that every person is allowed to just, you know, speak freely. There's no need to pay any licensing for it. And I think the same should apply to the Second Amendment. If you read the Bruin decision that the Supreme Court vote, I mean, any high schooler can read it and see clearly how in violation New York State is. So what are you going to do as a Jewish community? Hiring smart lawyers. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good start. When do you file?

Whatever, the lawyers are working on at around the clock. So, yeah, I mean. for now we're doing what we have to with drumming up support um you know there's also this law affects other stuff as well i mean local local grocery stores you're not allowed to carry a firearm inside except if they put up a sign so we have been giving out these signs for stores um and you have to stop thinking like i mean people are realizing how ridiculous it is and especially if you see the the woke prosecutor pushing their ideology and for the bail reform laws that they pass and like gun crimes like running ramparts and like people are people starting to think does the you know do the politicians in Albany really care about us or they care about the people about their political ideology.

And I think like government needs to take a really hot look and realize that they're here to represent their people, not their philosophy. And you know, the more they're doing it, the more devices it's becoming and the more dangerous it can potentially be. You know, I don't know how you would feel about this, but if, if this were my community. And, you know, I'm right down the street from Collieville where we had an incident at a synagogue just recently. And I know the churches immediately reached out to help. But I think Christians, you should volunteer to be meat shields, quite honestly. You don't have to bring a gun. Just be a meat shield.

and I'd love to see churches organized to walk with people and and and stand in front of, they'd have to come through you first. Can we please learn our lesson and can we at the beginning of this stand and be visible standing for our Jewish friends? Please let's not repeat the mistakes of the past. and if you think the past is just the past, you don't know the history of the holocausts that have happened through history over and over, and it begins this way.

Svii. I think 100% right. It's not only like, you know, I have a wool or two. There are plenty of people that come from countries that were oppressed and they're coming here for their freedom. I mean, most of our ancestors, when they came to the United States,

they came through the poor junior pastor, and they came to escape some type of, you know, tyranny. And the more I talk to people going out there from other communities, the more I see the sentiment is the same. It's just in New York state, people are scared to talk out. People don't want to be judged. Just people want to be let go and live their life and get along with the neighbors. But the more I talk to people, the more I see how many people are concerned about

there's some all the different communities around it. And I think for the Second Amendment, and especially for the Constitution, it's something that we need to stand together hand-in-hand on the matter where you're from and which denomination you're from. It's something that can affect us, and as long as we have it will be able to practice our religious, ever-feeling in this great country. Because it's one of the only countries that guarantees it. It's in the Constitution of Second Amendment.

And this is exactly what our founders did, too. I'm sure you're aware of the Vine and Fig letter that George Washington wrote to the Jewish community. We are one and we stand together so we can all recline under the vine and fig in peace and harmony. It's a weird thing, V, to watch people where they know what is right, but they are paralyzed by fear. And I really think that comes from a lack of faith, true faith in God. Definitely 100%, but it's a different aspect that people have to understand. When I talk to people, I try to explain to them that this country, as a people, people call the great experiment. And if I look through the history, there's been times where America has looked dark like this. But at the end

of the day, we prevail and we pull through, but we only pull through if people voice their opinions and make sure our politicians hear our voices. So people who are, our people who are, shouldn't get paralyzed. And people understand, have to understand, it's okay to talk out. And the different thing, people,

people think that you need to do big things in order to, to change. It's on, if you fix yourself, you'll fix your children, your family, and automatically you'll have

influence on them, and then the influence goes from in and out. There's a great story I just heard from a friend of mine. There was a scientist. He was working on great projects. They wanted to fix the world.

You know, was constantly tweaking things in his garage and trying to come over solutions for energy for this and for that he had a little son who was like so proud of his dad he wanted to help him and once his father was sitting like trying to figure something out and his son comes over and he says he tells him ta i want to help you fix the world and the father's trying to like shrug them over because he's busy concentrating the father sees a magazine with a picture of like a map of the world he takes it he rips it out he gives it to his son and then he rips it up into pieces he tells us on here go put together this puzzle put together the world. And he figured for sure his son will never be able

to figure it out. And to his behold, like 20 minutes later his son comes running in, everything scotsed together the map of the world. He said, Ta, I fixed the world.

He asked them, how are you able to figure it out? It's so complicated. You know, there's a lot of different pieces. You never saw the world, the globe as a whole. He said, yeah, when I saw behind

a picture of a person, so I put that person together. So people have to understand that if you work on yourself to really understand freedom and to appreciate it, then automatically you'll have an influence on the family and the people around the enemy neighbors. This is exactly how I started.

I started of going to the range, taking down four numbers of other people in my community that are shooting, and they just evolved into a club. You know, I want to know how to become a good shooter. I want to understand what the Second Amendment is all about. Svi, I don't know if you know my history at all with the Jewish community and my stance on Israel, and I have been so concerned about what is coming for the Jews because it just keeps repeating itself. But I want you to know that my audience has been prepared for these times and we stand with you. I can speak for myself.

I stand with you and I will be a meat shield for you if need be. How can we help you? I mean, right now we need to raise legal funds. People can go to NYS Jewish Gun Club slash donate. And if you are a leader of faith in the Lower Hudson Valley, please reach out to me. Lawsuits at NYUS Jewish Gun Club. I'm meeting with pastors and other people from the community and we need more people to get involved on this. The second amendment is too big for me to stand there alone.

It needs to be an effort with everybody. And at the end of the day, if they can come for us, they'll come from everyone who believes in something that's higher than themselves. So it is, what is the pastors, or what did you say the address, email address was? The email address is lawsuits. Lawsuits. Lawsuits at N.YSJewish Gun Club.com. If you're somebody in New York, and especially if you are a religious organization, please

reach out. We have to stand together. And I so urge you with everything in you, great and powerful blessings will come to all of us if we stand with our Jewish friends. We stand with and we stand for our Jewish friends. Please, blessings beyond your understanding will come if we do not repeat the mistakes or we at least stand up to stop the mistakes of the past. Svi, thank you so much. God bless you. Thanks for having me. Have wonderful. Bye-bye.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Carol Roth, the War on Small Business author and former recovering investment banker that actually can break things down and talk and explain what things mean to the regular schlubs of America. Welcome, Carol. How are you? You know, just enjoying the Biden economy. How are you? Oh, my gosh. That party yesterday was absolutely incredible. Incredible. I mean, it was surreal. They were celebrating that the interest rate is coming down. Can you explain what happened with the interest rate numbers, the CPI numbers? Well, James Taylor was there. So we've seen fire and we've seen rain. We saw a very hot CPI.

report as well yesterday. As we know, the CPI is one of the measures of inflation. It measures sort of the consumer inflation. We do know that it's understated because they have messed with it for the last, you know, several decades to underplay it, but it's still a benchmark that we used to sort of compare. It was considered hot by all expectations. We knew there was going to be some decline in the headline number because of the sharp decline in gasoline. prices. Wait, wait, wait, but could you explain why the price of gasoline is going down? Sure. So before we get to the, you know, the nitty gritty. So there are a couple of reasons why gasoline is coming down. Some of it was our president pulling a little bit of a stunt and pulling

oil out of our emergency reserves and putting it out into the market to kind of depress it. Some of it was artificial because the gas taxes have been on hiatus in certain locales. But the biggest reason that the gasoline prices are coming down is because the price of oil is coming down. And the biggest reason of the price of oil is coming down is because the price of oil got too high. It was just pure demand destruction. There's this saying in the commodities market that the best cure for high prices is high prices. And that's what we saw not only here in the United States, people maybe decided not to take a road trip or to reroute their lives, you know, so that they're not

using as much energy and particularly gasoline. But also on a global stage, obviously the prices are going through the roof, as we know in Europe, completely self-inflicted. But, you know, again, they're having to make those same choices. And then China, as we've discussed previously, is having its own issues, and particularly with parts of that country being under lockdown and being a top consumer of oil, they weren't using it. So the demand destruction is that reason, that big reason that we had to decrease in oil and them decreasing gasoline. Just confirm that this is a good way to look at the words demand destruction, because you'll

hear people say, well, what we're looking for is some demand destruction and the oil prices and blah, blah, blah. And, you know, they just kind of goes over people's heads. And I described it today. Every time you hear demand destruction, think, put your name. So Carol Roth, your bank account at, let's say, Bank of America, what they're looking for, what we're really looking for is Carol Roth's bank account at Bank of America to be destroyed. So you don't have the money to go and buy the things, correct?

They're looking to price things so crazy that you can't, you can afford it. Yeah, it's the outgrowth of high prices that basically Carol Roth says, you know, I'm looking at my bank accounts. It's being destroyed and there's no way that I can go on that road trip. So I'm just not going to be one of those people in the market who is purchasing gasoline this month. I'm going to take a reprieve. I'm going to work from home. And that's, you know, that's part of the whole story of the, you know, the Federal Reserve,

what they're trying to do to, quote, unquote, slow down the economy and engineer their, another big, you know, kind of financial speak, a soft landing trying to quell inflation without tanking the economy. And that's their toolkit is all about demand destruction. They don't want the consumer to purchase. They don't want businesses to make investments. And we've already had two quarters of negative growth. So if they're trying to get the economy to slow down, you know what that means? That means more contraction. Okay. So that's why gas is going to. down. And that was really the only thing that went down, right? We had food prices skyrocketed. Yeah, it's crazy. I saw a stat that they put in there, that food in the house. It was something like they

were at the highest level since the late 1970s, 79, I think. So we got, you know, hot numbers in food, in shelter, and medical care services. You know, this isn't like ancillary stuff. This isn't like, you know, the fancy clothes, right? This is the stuff that you need to be able to live your life. And it was the fact that we thought maybe there were, that the lower energy prices would flow through, no pun intended, a little bit more of the economy. But it's just shown that we have a very broad base in terms of inflation. It's not just coming from that one pocket.

It's not just Putin's fault, Glenn. Right. And, you know, that is going to take a long time to come back down. down to normalize level. So we have something else to add on top of it. And you can call it climate change or just a bad season or whatever. But I was talking to my aunt who was like 85

years old yesterday. Quite a conversation. I said anyway, she was canning yesterday and she was like there have been no peaches, no beans. She said we planted our bean garden three times. We had hard time finding even seeds

for it. There is there. We, we are facing a real crisis just because the crops didn't come through. And that's happening globally. You add to that all of the other problems. We haven't seen. We're now just about to get into the time where we would be using this summer's crops.

Correct? So food prices still have a long way to go in the up direction, don't they? They do. And that's part of the issue, you know, why I'm sort of banging my head against the wall in terms of a lot of these discussion points. Because as we talked about the demand destruction that the Fed policy is trying to enact, our issue is the broad-based supply issue. And as you mentioned, one of the areas that is undersupplied is food. Part of that, as you mentioned, because of weather events. Some of that because of fertilizer shortages.

Some of it because of byproducts from energy that go into drying grains. some of that because of war in Ukraine, but all of these things happening at the same time are creating those shortages. And again, as the consumer decides what's to substitute, they may be able to substitute to a lower cost food, but they can't substitute food. And that is going to continue to be an issue all across the globe. Well, they can't eat bugs. I mean, they're supposed to be very, very tasty. So a couple of things. Let me start with the Fed.

I am reading now that the Fed is going to, you know, raise the rates again. But as astonishing as it seems to me that we're at these historically speaking low rates and it's going to stop the heart of the economy. they're saying now the next rate or rate hike or two could just put us into a tailspin. Do you believe that? I do. If you go back to Janet Yellen, our quote unquote esteemed Treasury Secretary, the one who told us that inflation was going to be transitory and that they needed to get information on $600 e-commerce transactions to keep the billionaires in check. Glenn. She was on one of those weekend shows, and she said basically that the Fed is going to need a great deal of skill and also some luck to achieve this soft landing, trying to bring down inflation

without taking the economy. Well, we know on the skill side, we know that they don't have the skills. They were behind the curve in terms of raising the rates to begin with. They waited until we were at, you know, historic 40-year highs before they even started thinking about reversing course. So obviously, we know that's probably not, you know, the scale part of it. The luck part of it isn't on our side either because they don't have the right tool set. As we've been talking about this, you know, supply side versus demand side and the demand destruction, their tool set in terms of raising the target interest rate as well as potentially reducing the assets on a ballot sheet, although I don't know that they're ever going to get around to that. That again,

is to destroy demand. It's to have the consumer slow purchases, it's to have businesses, slow investments. First, they have the government that's working, you know, against them on that. The government policy is spending more. So those two things are at odds, which makes absolutely no sense. But the problem we have now isn't a demand side issue. It's a supply side issue. As we've been talking about, we have brought under supplies. So unless the Fed knows how to print labor, print food, print oil, print housing, they are not going to be able to solve for that delta, that distance between supply and demand without completely slowing the economy to the point that we are in a severe recession.

And that is what the market is signaling, both the stock market and the bond market right now, is saying, boy, we don't have the confidence that the Fed not only has the tools, but that they aren't going to put us in a worse situation. And on top of that, then you also have the global economy, you know, in tatters as well, which isn't a lot, not a lot of luck. So I'm not real bullish on the skill and luck of the Fed right now. So I was in Italy last week and just talk to people. You know, you sit at a restaurant or whatever, and we just talk to people.

And one of the more disturbing trends that I heard was, you know, that, you know, that, that things are getting really bad. And one person described it to me as the winds of revolution are sweeping Europe. Because and it's fascinating. Everyone knew it was the same problem we have here. The elites are going in one direction and the people are going in another. The people are saying give it back to us. And the elites are saying give it all to us.

And that's not going to. last. And I kept hearing things like we're just going to have to learn to that the glory days of having things that you wanted in easy lives are over. Can you describe what that means that Americans are just going to have to live a different kind of life? Yeah. I mean, it's so frustrating that, you know, we have the leading economy in the world and you have all of these first world countries that really have spent time using their technology to help other countries and to help lift up human flourishing around the globe. I mean, if you think about China and what we've done in terms of the extreme poverty,

they're lifting out 90% of their population from extreme poverty because they were able to trade with us and basically suck up some of our capitalism into their communist system, that's what we should be doing. We should be taking that leadership, saying that we know how to do things the best way and we're going to help everybody flourish. Instead, you have these elites saying, no, we want to be this to be a third world country and we want to be in a dictatorship where us at the top have our own set of rules and have all the power and you just suffer and you're going to have to suck it up.

And, you know, unfortunately, there are some people who will go along with that and go, yeah, you know, crisis, we must do this. We're all in this together. kind of like what happened in COVID, but we should have learned over the last two years that they don't have our best, you know, outcomes at, yeah, outcomes at heart, and that they will do anything like, you know, completely do anything they can to get and usurp that power. And we've already seen, you know, smaller amounts of civil unrest in developed countries, whether it was the freedom convoy or in the Netherlands with the farmers. And, you know,

you're right, that this could end up becoming a much bigger issue, which, you know, if it changes the tide, you know, in a sense may not be the worst outcome, not that obviously I ever want to see, you know, any sort of violence or unrest, but we need to change the tender and the people need to take back common sense and sanity here. So the one thing that kind of makes sense to me is, you know, if you're, if you're somebody wants control of things. You need to control medicine. They do. They need to control education. They do. But they need to control energy. You know, I'm seeing this happening in Europe because they're ahead of us. And they're all, people are going to freeze to death this winter. They will freeze to death. And people won't be able to pay their power bill, which will put the energy companies into distress.

And they won't have the money to do it because people aren't paying their bills, et cetera, et cetera. And I just. and I just think the government will step in and say they couldn't get it done. This needs to be done by the government. And you could see the West just taking and absorbing all of our energy companies. Do you think that's a possibility? Because I think it's likely, at least in Europe. I mean, so if you think about the desire to nationalize control, have sort of a public-private partnership, at least in the U.S., California is sort of our incubator for that,

and they're starting to test that in a lot of different rounds. They just put forth that Fast Recovery Act, which is going to be a state council on fast food. So they are going to manage the fast food industry. And again, that is a step to try to nationalize these industries. I definitely see a place we've already been hearing from the U.S. and abroad about things like price caps. We have a big problem in Europe,

terms of the way they have kind of financed themselves in a potential collapse of, you know, some of the energy companies and utilities out there. So yes, you're going to have them, the governments come in with a bailout and then they may use that as an excuse. Well, we're bailing them out anyway. They can't manage this. We need to take this over. So, you know, whether it's food, whether it's energy, whether it's any aspect of our economic freedom, these crises are their touchpoints. And again, afflicted crises, the ones that they created in order to say, we created the problem, but don't look at that, we're going to fix it for you.

Carol, will you do me a favor? I'd like to do a, I'd like to do a special with just a group of experts that can tell the average person, what's coming and how do we deal with it? I mean, it's so overwhelming to the average person. And I don't think because people make it so complex, because it is complex, but they make it so complex that they don't even think about breaking it down into smaller bite sizes that people can understand. So can you find a bunch of people that you really think get it that maybe could sit around in a roundtable and we could have a conversation about all this? I would love to be honored to and I will be in touch. Okay, good. Thank you.

Carol, we'll talk again. Carol Roth, make sure that you're following her. She is really, really spot on. You can find her at carolroth.com. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Hang on just a second. Who is this?

It's Pat. I'm here in Westminster, Windsor Castle. In Windsor Castle. At the Windsor Castle. Wait a minute. You were just sitting in the studio just right next to me a minute ago. I don't have time to explain how I got here. Just know that I'm here.

the queen right now. Our continuing coverage of wall to wall, nonstop till your eyes bleed coverage of the casket moving of Queen Elizabeth. What they're doing right now is a kind of where's Waldo's sort of situation where they move it so often. Really? Nobody really knows where the queen is. Right.

Okay. It's kind of creepy to be looking at a dead body anyway. Right. Yeah. So just keep moving in. Yeah. Just keep moving. Just keep moving it.

Okay, so now she's in Westminster Hall, which is what exactly? I mean, I'm sorry. Westminster Hall. Yeah. What's done there in Westminster Hall? This is where they make a lot of pudding. They make pudding. They make pudding.

I didn't know that. And ship it directly to America. Wow. For Joe Biden. Really? But I can't give the exact location. Really? Right now.

Right now. The coordinates or the precise latitude and law. Because we are trying to keep it secret. But it's somewhere there in Westminster. Now, I'm looking at a picture and there's a couple of things. First of all, I've never seen the uniform of the guards that are standing there. They seem to have very large, pointy hats. Those are dunce caps with a mop is what those are.

I don't. But that's what those are. Those are dunce caps with a mop. Okay. I've never seen that kind of... Very specialized hats. The British are quite proud of them. And they only bring them out for special occasions.

Like this. Like the death of a queen. Okay. That's why we never seen... Because I've seen, like, the other guys, they've taken those big round black hats. You know, those guard... You know, the big, like, Wizard of Oz hats. Yeah, those are cute tips.

Those are what? Those are cute. They're cute. No, no. Yeah, where do you think the name comes from? The queen. The queen and, uh, uh, uh, uh, Q-tips. So for sure. If you were to say the full name of a Q-tip, it would be the queen tip.

Queen-tip? Yeah. Huh. Yeah. And that would be the top of the guy who's protecting. Ha, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't know that. So what happens, what happens next? Well, next they're going to move her to another location, which is also going to be secret. Okay. But that's about five, I understand it's about five yards from where she currently reside. Really? On Monday, they're actually going to put her in a hole. They're going to put her in a hole. Yes.

You mean in the ground? In the ground. In the ground. And will she remain there? No. No, she will not. No, they'll be moving her. They'll be moving her.

Another couple weeks. I think it's a month. I think you're going to wait a whole month before they move her. Very good. She will not stay in that location. All right. This is so bad. with their monarchs.
