Starting point is 00:00:14 The voice that we love. We've got to tell you about American financing. Yes, we do. There is a story in today's show prep in today's Internet that says that it looks like mortgage rates could be going up to five percent. Yay! Why is that? To curb inflation. Yay! So it's going to get harder and harder to get a loan soon, and you're going to pay more and more. If your mortgage goes up to 5%, you buy a lot less house and you pay a lot more money than you will at 2% or 3%. Please, please call American financing
Starting point is 00:00:59 right now. Call them at 800, 906, 2440, 800, 906, 2440, or go to Americanfinancing.net. That's Americanfinancing. Dot net. Oh, good show for you. Today, actually, too. It's weird. I mean, usually we got a great show coming up for you, but it's usually not that day. So, standby. Back Gray joins us again. From Behind My Cardboard Microphone. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program, with talent on loan from Carol today. I mean, hey, women have talent in broadcasting as well. Carol's not, she's a dental hygienist. So I don't know how much her talent is going to work out for me today, but we're going to give it a whirl. And coming up, we're going to start with, oh my gosh, our president, he is, he is not embarrassing at all. We start there in 60 seconds. Now spit.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Oh, sorry, that's Carol. May I talk to you about Sandra who lives in Minnesota? Hi, Sandra. May I call you Sandy? She writes in about her experience with Relief Factory. She says, I've been hearing you talk about Relief Factor for a couple of years now in your show. I know. Sick of it, aren't you?
Starting point is 00:02:56 I finally decided to give it a try because nothing was helping with my back pain. I have experienced great relief. The lower back pain used to be constant, but it's not anymore. I honestly doubted Relief Factor was going to help, but the three-week quick start being available. I decided, what the heck? I don't have anything to lose. I am so glad I did.
Starting point is 00:03:17 I feel like a new person. Thank you so much. Sandra, thank you. Thank you for at least trying it. That's why they put the three-week quick start out there. Because unlike most companies, they're like, yeah, only about 70% of the people use, you know, go on to buy more. And I'm like, wait, what?
Starting point is 00:03:39 yeah after three weeks you know 30% of the people they don't find any relief from it so they don't and I said well then why aren't you saying that I don't know nobody said we should okay well I'm saying you should it's an honest company that is just trying to do the right thing and trying to get people help and as they said you might be part of the 30 30% that it doesn't work for so take it for three weeks if it doesn't work within three weeks it's probably not going to It works for Sandra. It works for me. Relieffactor.com.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Call 800, 5883-84. Relieffactor.com, 800, 583-84. As God is in His heaven, do we have to hate each other to the point that people with less balance are stimulated to deeds of this kind? I don't think we need to. Pat, uh, I say we don't hate anybody. I say we laugh at them today. I mean, we laugh with them.
Starting point is 00:04:42 We laugh with them. So open wide. Gosh. I'm sorry, that dental hygienist thing is really. Maybe not the smartest person to borrow from. Yeah, well, she was the only one available that I could get on the phone. You know, Rush had all the talent on loan from God. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:00 I'll take what I can get. So thank you, Carol. Okay. Anyway, let me just show you one of the most awkward moments I think I have ever seen a president go through. And that is when the reporter asked President Biden, do you still think that Putin is a cold stone killer? Here's what happened.
Starting point is 00:05:31 In a weekend interview, Vladimir Putin laughed at the suggestion that you had called him a killer. Is that still your belief, sir, that he is a killer? killer. The answer the first question? I'm laughing too. They actually, I, well, look, I mean, he has made clear that, uh,
Starting point is 00:05:53 I love this. Uh, one, two, three, four, five, the answer is, six, I believe he is in the past, essentially acknowledged that he was, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:06:09 There are certain things that he would do or did do. But look, when I was asked that question. Okay, stop, stop, stop. Did that first part look like a hostage video? I mean, he's going into the room to meet with Vladimir Putin. And he's like, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, I believe it. I think he picks this up from Kamala or Kamala. I think that's, he's like, ha, ha, ha, he works for Kamala.
Starting point is 00:06:36 ha ha ha ha I'm laughing too that does seem to be their escape route right they just start laughing good they just start laughing go ahead and play that and then play Kamala's laugh when he starts to laugh go ahead in a weekend interview
Starting point is 00:06:56 Vladimir Putin laughed at the suggestion that you had called him a killer is that still your belief sir that he is a killer answer the first question where's Kamala I'm laughing too no no
Starting point is 00:07:13 oh man oh man and the stuck in time thing that happens to him all the time he pauses for nearly seven seconds and can't say a word doesn't know what he's completely lost
Starting point is 00:07:31 for at least seven seconds before his brain re-engages. How do you get away with that? How does nobody on the left? No one makes any mention of that. It's not a thing. If that was Donald Trump pausing for seven seconds. No, no.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Did you see? Did you see? You remember when he did his first rally when Donald Trump first came out a month ago? And he did his first rally? They said he was A wearing his pants on backwards. Right. Which he wasn't. not true. And they said, look how old he's gotten.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Look how old he's gotten. He looks like a high school teenager in comparison. You kidding me? Look how old he's gotten. Let me move to Hunter Biden here, because there's a story here that makes me laugh. Here's the headline. We spoke to Hunter Biden about his new life as a full-time artist and his personal quest for universal truth through painting. She's. Ahead of his official debut as an exhibiting artist, the son of U.S. President Joe Biden tells us what's driving his new career. Now, do we have the picture of him painting?
Starting point is 00:09:06 There he is. Like a first grader at a table. That's generally not the way you paint. But that paintbrush looks like it does come from a first grader. And by the way, he's gripping it. Now, he provided this picture. They didn't. He provided this picture.
Starting point is 00:09:32 It's Hunter Bik. at work courtesy of the artist hunter biden is on the move yeah because he's running from the law hunter biden is on the move the lawyer former lobbyist son of the u.s president joe biden has left his 5.4 million dollar rental rental in venice beach california for a quieter los angeles neighborhood up the coast He won't say where exactly, because right-wing guys like to show up on his doorstep with bullhorns. I'm still quoting this article. He's 15 minutes late for an interview because his house doesn't have mobile service yet. I'm wondering how many people are trying to get in touch with me and then failing, Biden, 51, told me over the phone,
Starting point is 00:10:24 which is kind of nice, actually. Usually, I just don't answer the phone. Now, this is a guy who didn't pay his alimony, lied in court about how much he made, was in with a stone cold killer in Burisma, was paid millions of dollars, didn't pay his taxes on those millions of dollars by the killer that ran Burisma. Oh, he left cocaine in a crack pipe in a rental car once, and he likes to make it with hookers. Oh, and his dead brother's wife. So I think we all love him. I think there's a reason to embrace him. He said the topic of our interview has nothing and yet everything to do with Biden's well-documented struggle
Starting point is 00:11:22 with addiction. His new memoir, his famous dad, his made for the tabloid's romantic life. His made romantic life? You mean where he's smiling over the heads of hookers? That's his romantic life? Or his ties to President Trump's impeachment and to Ukraine? Nothing because he wants to talk about the art he's been making for his upcoming show in New York this fall. Every single. because well it's art and for Biden everything is connected he has no formal training but he's been making art since he was a child I remember when he finger painted I in recent years his practice has taken more formal serious turn and now as a full-time artist he has a dealer Jorge Burgess
Starting point is 00:12:16 he also has a studio and a collector base now remember he's doing his first show, he's just announced that he's an artist and he has a collector base? Yes, in fact, prices on his paintings. Now, Pat,
Starting point is 00:12:37 I want you to think about this. You could own a Hunter Biden painting for a work on paper for $75,000. Is that all? Wow. Yeah. Or $500,000
Starting point is 00:12:51 for a large scale painting. Oh my. Now, $500,000 might seem like a lot to some, but not if you're trying to meet the president. Oh, did I say that out loud? You know what this is? Hey, dad, you know who I want you to meet? This guy who just bought a $500,000 painting from me. It's only a half a million dollars. I just thought you had to meet him. I'm going to leave you two alone now to talk. That's what this is. This is nothing but a way for him that the art is money laundering. He is taking all of that money, and I can guarantee you that provides access to the president of the United States, because that's the scam these guys always run. Oh, I'm going to, I don't, you know, I don't
Starting point is 00:13:46 speak the language. I know nothing about the Ukraine, but the good news is I also, know nothing about the gas and oil industry, but I'm going to take that seat on the board of Burisma because I've got so much of other stuff that I can offer them if they spoke English. I mean, that's why he got paid all that money. He got paid as a way to push that money into the Biden family. Be able to just keep selling access and influence. Oh, my God. And he really, could you put that picture up again?
Starting point is 00:14:32 Pat, your kids are, are artists, really good artists. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Have you ever seen them paint anything like that, leaning on the canvas and then no, I have it. Like it's a crayon? I have not. No.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Now, I would do that. That's how I would paint because I'm not an artist. Yeah, I think that's the part. I think that's the point. Uh-huh. And if you look at his art, it does look like somebody who has done drugs. But I will tell you, usually crack cocaine heads don't have the kind of patience to do all of that art like that. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:15:14 Mm-hmm. That's very complex art. Not something that I would buy, but somebody, somebody would buy that. and it would be, you know, it would probably be very expensive. I just don't believe he's doing it. Now, that's probably what a lot of people would say about me, but have you seen my heart? I mean, have you seen how it used to be?
Starting point is 00:15:38 And really, I mean, and you see how it is now? You know what I'm saying? So I don't know if anybody has a, you know, I don't think any, I'm not fooling anyone. Like, you know, they're like, Oh. Uh-huh. That, okay.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I believe Glenn did that. Yeah, sure. Sure. Sure. Sure. I don't believe he did this at all. At all. Really?
Starting point is 00:16:04 Do you? Well, I'm looking at the New York Post. And the headline is Hunter Biden's artwork is actually good and will be worth a lot, experts say. And then I'm looking at it. And he's blowing ink onto a page. It looks like, have you seen, have you seen that photo? He's just, he's, I have not seen that photo. He's blowing the paint onto the page.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Well, that's, I'm sorry. That's one of his $75,000 paper. That is not, that is not art. I can do. I mean, I can do that. I can blow paint onto a, on to a piece of paper. Have you seen the article, well, I have it from artnet.com, and it shows some of the more, I guess you would call it.
Starting point is 00:16:51 called sophisticated art, and it's not easy. That's not an easy thing. And it's interesting, as his art master, Jorge, said that, you know, he has got some authenticity to it. And I've encouraged him to incorporate his written work in his mixed media. his written work you mean like when he calls people
Starting point is 00:17:26 the N word I mean I don't know if that would sell but sure okay okay I'm telling you this is nothing but a way for him to sell access to the president of the United States
Starting point is 00:17:41 I believe that maybe I'm wrong maybe he does do all of it but I also believe this is a way to sell access to the president of the United States. Now, I want you to know I'm going to announce the dates of my first art showing, and I am selling access to Pete, and if you've ever wanted to talk to Pete,
Starting point is 00:18:12 you buy one of my paintings, and I'll set it up for you. Let's keep that between ourselves, okay? July 26 through July 31st is at Park City Fine Art. They are, I'm doing my first art show. Proceeds, by the way, everything that I make on this, I'm going to donate to Mercury 1, the American Journey Center for the Preservation of History.

It's not Hunter Biden, but, you know, what is? You buy mine and you don't, you buy mine and you don't have to meet the president of the United States, which I think is kind of a nice thing.

Starting point is 00:24:23 I am thrilled to have the former U.S. Secretary of State, former CIA director, and chairman of Cav Pack, which he'll talk about here in just a second. Mike Pompeo on with us. Hello, Mike. How are you? Good morning, Glenn. It's great to be with you on your show today. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:24:51 I appreciate it. And I really sincerely mean I really appreciate everything you have done for the country and honestly for the world, especially Israel and the Middle East. what you guys pulled off is absolutely amazing. And I hate to see it torpedoed like it's being, but thank you for that. Well, Glenn, thank you for the kind words. We did do good work, important work for the American people, important work for the people of Israel and the relationship between our two countries.
Starting point is 00:25:25 It has been, I'll be honest, it has been a tough 140 or whatever the heck number of days it is to watch them already begin to undo what was really going to create prosperity and peace in the region. I think the Abraham Accords will withstand it, but it's going to take a lot of effort, a lot of effort from people who are diligent in making sure that those relationships don't deteriorate under this administration. I have to tell you, you know, Joe Biden, even going in to meet with Putin, is a little like mini mouse trying to have a civil conversation with Peg Leg Pete. I mean, there's no strength there at all. No strength. how do you how do you suggest those meetings are going to go Glenn these are high-stakes things
Starting point is 00:26:12 I watched President Trump go through it when I met with Chairman Kim these were big events and you had to be ready it was it was really sad because the setup is always so important here the setup was we began by joining the Paris Climate Accords
Starting point is 00:26:25 telling Vladimir Putin he'll be the world's biggest energy producer and by lifting some sanctions on some of his buddies it's not that we can't find places we can work with Vladimir Putin We certainly did, but you've got to be clear and you've got to be tough and you have to be cognizant of the risks of the malign activities engaged in. I fear that 24 hours in this meeting.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I have to tell you, I don't know if I'm sure you did see what the president of Poland said, but he's like, nobody in America is consulting with us. And Biden is no Reagan and Putin is not Gorbachev. and we're going to be the ones that pay the price. You know, it's a Spent Paul, too, and Ronald Reagan, who over the Union, and to hear the polls now saying they fear that the United States is not going to be up to the task is really a historical myth and dangerous, not only for the polls in Eastern Europe, but for us as well.
Starting point is 00:27:40 So we have so much to cover, and it's a little time. So let me just go through a couple of things. The ransomware attacks. I've never heard a president say, well, it's a prime. private issue and the president should just, or I mean, these companies, they have to decide whether they pay the blackmail. Stunning. Can you tell me, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Yeah, this is an attack on America. And it came through a commercial attack, right? It came through an attack on a commercial enterprise, but the capacity for pipelines to move product around our East Coast is an American national security interest to suggest for a moment that we're going to hand this over to some private entity. oh goodness, it's about like handing over your social media, these big old nasty social media companies. We have to help these businesses protect their systems, and then it has to be a national effort to impose costs on those who put American lives at risk by denying us the middle of move product around our world, our country. So is there a strong enough connection between these hackers and Putin that we know Putin at least knows about it and is okaying it with a wink and a nod?
Starting point is 00:28:50 I can't tell you about this particular incident and what we know because I was out of government, but I could say this, all the hallmarks of what took place here, suggest this is some folks who are operating from Russian soil in a space that is almost certainly underwritten by one of Vladimir Putin's buddies, the oligarch system, and Putin at the very least is turning a blind eye to it and probably more. And so it's appropriate to hold Vladimir Putin and the Russians accountable for the actions taking place inside of their own country. And we've got to do it.
Starting point is 00:29:22 There are tools by which we can. Let me just quickly. It looks like, well, it doesn't look like I know it just happened. State Department was investigating COVID and the Wuhan Lab and everything else. And Biden just took that and shut that down and moved it over to the CIA. My theory is that that way he doesn't have to release anything. because intelligence can be, you know, intelligence can be held as top secret. Was there evidence on this Wuhan lab when you were in office and are we ever going to hear what really happened?
Starting point is 00:30:07 So I have a unique perspective, having led both the CIA and the State Department consecutively. When I was a Secretary of State, when the Wuhan virus was voiced up, upon the world by the Chinese Communist Party. We began to move heaven and earth to try and figure out what happened. We had the tools to try and figure out if this was a part of a bio-weapons effort on behalf of the CCP. And we learned a lot. And so, Glenn, well, I can't tell your listeners today. We know the answer with certainty. I am confident that this came from the virology lab. We know enough to say that. We also know enough to know they're continuing to cover it up. And so we know plenty to hold them accountable. There's no evidence this administration wants to confront that. Three million people
Starting point is 00:30:49 people dead around the world, hundreds of thousands in the United States. Family still, family still here in the United States upended by this thing, kids having trouble coming out of these lockdown, crazy lockdowns. The Chinese Communist Party has to be made to pay a price at the least a price sufficient to make sure they'll do what they can to make sure something like this never happens again. Talking to Mike Pompeo, you are starting a, what's called a Cav Pack, Cav champion American values and also
Starting point is 00:31:24 kind of a tip of the hat to your time in the Army as a Calvary officer, but it's Caval Pack and it is looking to get real conservatives and real conservative candidates into the 2022
Starting point is 00:31:41 cycle. Tell me about it. Back in 2010 when Barack Obama was taking our country in the wrong direction, I gave up that wonderful life with my family back in Kansas to go run for Congress to throw Nancy Pelosi out. This effort is in those same lines. It's my effort from the place that I find myself today to lead. Well, we've called Cav back. You write, what does Cav do? It rides to the sound of the gun. It alerts. It sounds the siren when there's a real risk to something that matters an awful lot.
Starting point is 00:32:14 So we're going to go find conservative candidates. True believers in American workers and our American middle class. We're going to find them. and we're going to help them be successful getting elected, not just to take back the House and the Senate, but city council races. We did a state legislative race in New Hampshire last week. We're helping a fellow out. We've got to make sure that we drive this message and help good candidates get elected. And if you go to catfack.com, I think you'll see there's real action and a real heart for delivering good outcomes for our country.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I'll tell you, Mike, I am not only looking for people that understand, you know, the average work. and how business is done. But I'm also looking for somebody who will stand up for the Constitution, because that thing is gone. I mean, we are not following it at all, it seems right now. And both parties seem to have, you know, seem to play not an equal part, but part in ignoring it when they want to.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Glenn, there's no doubt the party that I've been a part of for decades now has its own challenges. We've got to confront them. got to take them on. When I was at the State Department, we engaged in a mission, to your point, the State Department lost its way, talking about human rights. It was talking about things that were crazy. And so we created this commission designed to go back and talk about our founding. What is it that we really believe and why do we believe in how do we put forward these ideas, trying to get my diplomats around the world to understand that we shouldn't apologize for America. It's this
Starting point is 00:33:46 exceptional country. So we went back and re-grounded the work that we were doing. That's what America needs. It needs a re-grounding in these first principles. The thing is going that you and I learned in schools. We need to go teach them in our schools again. We're not doing that today. If we get that wrong, I joke, but I'm three-quarters serious. I met with the Taliban. I met with Chairman Kim. The biggest risk today is inside of our schools. If we don't get that right, if we're not brave enough and fearless enough to go stand up and demand that we teach our kids about the greatness of our nation, then this next generation will take us to a path where, you know, as our founders, knew we could lose the Republican.
Starting point is 00:34:26 So yesterday, I'm big on the Great Reset from the World Economic Forum. I mean, almost every politician around the world in the West is using Build Back Better, which is from the World Economic Forum. Yesterday, Biden gave a speech, and I'm going to talk about it here in a few minutes, but he gave a speech, and he said, you know, for us to be able to best China, we all have to work together. Then he went through the stated goals. All of them were right directly from the Great Reset in the, um, uh, of the world economic forum. Do you, do you think that there's a, uh, a, an effort underway that these corporations and the government are starting to put a little
Starting point is 00:35:18 private, public partnership together? Uh, Biden continues, continues, continuously says, you know, it's a test we're going to see in the next couple of years whether whether or not a democracy like ours can survive against these authoritarian states. They can just move quickly. Glenn, it saddens me when I hear that. That's the story, you know, when President Biden talks about going, we're back. He means back to Barack Obama. That story that you hear is managing American decline.
Starting point is 00:35:51 We can't stop America. we're going to witness. We've got to get it right and we have to be fearless in doing so. When I hear them say that China presents a challenge, you know, a challenge is figuring out
Starting point is 00:36:03 whether you want to go to the store at 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock. The threat is the Chinese Communist Party, and I saw the statement that came out this week. You know, it's okay, but it doesn't begin to comprehend the threat that the Chinese Communist Party presents.
Starting point is 00:36:18 And you know this. It'll take American leadership to get this right. We're going to have to demonstrate. that our businesses are prepared to sacrifice and our businesses are prepared to be the technology leaders and we're not going to suffer the Chinese Communist Party censorship and cancellation for our American companies. We're going to manfare free trade. If we get those things right, Glenn, America's going to push back against the threat from Xi Jinping and his commie buddies. We can do it.
Starting point is 00:36:44 We've done it before. And it's just going to take American leadership to get it right. Sadly, we don't have a president that I think is prepared to do that today. do you stay in touch with President Trump and if so how's he doing? He wants to be part of the fight. The same way I'm trying to work every day to be part of the fight. He knows that the things that we did these past four years made lives for ordinary Americans better. I think he's saddened to see what they've done in these first hundred days too. We knew when you got President Biden, we knew what we were in for.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I don't think any of us believed that the left had captured him so much that they would move this far, this left, this fast. And so time is nigh. We've got to get after it. We've got to win in 2022 and shoring the runway. All right. So you are looking for people that want to run and need some help and some advice. You're looking for anybody who is running in 2022 at cav-pack, C-A-V-P-A-C-com, correct? Correct.

It was, it was amazing to watch you guys. It really was. Thank you. Well, bless you, glad. We'll talk again soon. So long, sir. You got it. Bye-bye. Cav-pack.com. We all have to consider running, especially at the local level. You've got to replace your school board. You have to It has to have just the strongest people you can possibly imagine who know what critical race theory is, who knows what America really stands for, and do not move. Run for your school board.

Sarah, have we gotten anything in from Project Veritas yet? There was a really weird on-air segment from a local Fox reporter yesterday, and she said, yes, I'm out here and she's live.
Starting point is 00:40:27 And before I get to that, I just want to say that you go ahead, play it. Outages across the region.

And from what I'm gathering, I am not the only reporter being subjected to this. going to be releasing some recordings about what goes on behind the scenes at Fox because it applies to you the viewers.

Starting point is 00:43:06 We're going to talk about Biden's trip here in just a second and a couple of other really important things, but I just don't know if we can shoehorn this one in, but you can find it at the Washington Post today. The Post has run an expansive report titled The Racist Legacy Many Birds Carry Yeah
Starting point is 00:43:28 The Washington Post reporter is very troubled by the racist legacy of a few birds And finally, finally I mean, are you with me, Pat? Oh, absolutely. These, he's racist birds that, you know, what they do to blackbirds
Starting point is 00:43:47 It's got to stop. It's got to stop. It's really, it does. It does. And, you know, when I see a bird and he's like, hey, because I can speak, a bird. That's, hey, let's go get the blackbirds. I just want to shoot them out of the sky. I just, that's how mad I am. And I have been for a long time on the racist legacy of some birds.
Starting point is 00:44:15 If you really want to follow that, you can read that in the Washington Post, or you could just stick around and get some real news in 60 seconds. That's I listen to the Glenn Beck program every day. I heard say that to me all the time. If you had to guess about how many of your personal details, including things like your Social Security number, your bank account numbers, other things like that, are available right now on the internet.
Starting point is 00:44:46 If somebody really wanted to work hard enough to find them, how much could they find? Answer, unfortunately, is probably all of them, all it would take is just a bit of digging, especially on the dark web, and you would have it. Cybercriminals love nothing more than to put you into the poor house by putting the overtime work into finding your details. You need LifeLock because LifeLock understands how cybercrime and identity theft affect each and every one of us. because each and every one of us every day put our information at risk on the internet.

That's really important because somebody's saying, hey, you're a bank account numbers on the dark web. Okay, well, do I call the dark web police? I don't even, I don't know the address. Anyway, this is where it really becomes important to have them because they have that team that can go in and fight it with you side by side to make sure it's all cleaned up.

Did you see the, just a lovely visit with the queen yesterday with Joe Biden? It was great.
Starting point is 00:46:47 She could see herself in his mirrored sunglasses, which, you know, I think it's, I don't think it's rude. I mean, I don't know. I don't know anybody that almost knocks them off the face of their child when they're meeting somebody, let alone the queen. But that was nice. You know, maybe she had some mustard there by some of the diamonds. And he was like, you should look in the mirror, look in the mirror. I'm wearing these sunglasses, so you can look at yourself.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Your lipstick is on your teeth. But it was, it was, it was beautiful. And then afterwards, he went. right out and told everybody, you know, what they had talked about, which you don't do. You know, that's a private conversation. But, you know, Michelle Obama didn't know the protocol. Barack Obama gave her a tape of all of his speeches, which I bet she enjoyed. I bet she's still listening to them today.
Starting point is 00:47:49 And I just think that's, I'm so proud. I'm so proud of him as president. And also, in case you missed that important part of his speech yesterday, where the reporter asked him kind of a tough question about Putin, and he gave an awkward Kamala Harris laugh and then just shut down for seven seconds. Listen. In a weekend interview, Vladimir Putin laughed at the suggestion that you had called him a killer. Is that still your belief, sir, that he is a killer? The answer to the first question? I'm laughing too.
Starting point is 00:48:30 They actually, I... Well, look, I mean, he has made clear that... Yeah? Hello? Hello? Yes. The answer is, I believe he is in the past. Wow.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Essentially... Wow. Is that a sign of... of, you know, mental, really, mental decay. Oh, for sure. That's astounding. How is it? No one reports on that.
Starting point is 00:49:05 No one was like, ah, and then the president just stopped for seven seconds and just kind of stared into space. Yeah. Can you, do you remember what they used to say toward the latter part of the Reagan administration? Of Reagan. He never did anything like that that I can remember. Never.
Starting point is 00:49:23 He didn't freeze during speeches for seven seconds at a time and lose his place and forget what he was saying. No. And they called him senile. Nope. Every day. They're calling Donald Trump senile. Right. Yes, they are.
Starting point is 00:49:37 They're like, look at him, slip. Slip! Are you kidding me? Unreal. It's crazy. And then, did you see when he met with Erdogan from Turkey at the NATO summit? and everybody's wearing a mask, except for the dictator Erdogan.
Starting point is 00:49:59 He's not wearing anything because he's like, you boobs are all so stupid. And Biden tries to give him a fist bump. And Erdogan really, I don't think, wanted to give a fist bump because it's for girls. But, oh, I'm sorry. Did I say that out loud? I mean, it could be a transgender girl, too.
Starting point is 00:50:24 I mean, anyway, it was a little awkward and a little embarrassing. But it was, you know, it's our American president. And so I'm, I'm thrilled about that. Joe Biden also adopted a new rule on Monday that could force Catholic hospitals and religious doctors and other objectors. forcing them to perform abortions and sex change surgeries. And I don't think, you know, we were never built on the individual and the right of conscience. That is so un-American that you would say, hey, I have a different point of view, you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Because these surgeries, sex reassignment surgeries, especially on children, they're so vital. They're so, so vital. And the earlier, the better, I think. The younger you are when you get one, I think the better you're going to be. Oh, if we could do them at birth? At birth would be great. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Yeah, it would be great. If your boy child cries all the time, you know it's because he wants to be a girl. There's a girl screaming to get out, literally screaming to get out. Right. Right. Right. That's the time to do it. Amen, brother. It's a time to do it. Amen.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Yep. The quick summary here on Joe Biden. is that he is working with the rest of the G7 to launch a build-back-better world partnership. If you're not following the Great Reset, you must, because you will understand what is going on right now. It's aimed mostly at the developing world, build-back better. That's, I mean, France is using that slogan. England is using that slogan. And, well, that's because they love Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:52:21 No, it didn't come from Joe Biden. Right. It came from the Great Reset. And what they're doing is essentially trying to establish the Great Reset in low-income and middle-income countries, think Africa. First, he made comments yesterday, specifically noting the purpose of the plan to compete with China's Belt and Road Initiative. If you don't know what the Belt and Road Initiative is, that's old Chinese speak, for the road, the Silk Road that they had coming out of China and all the trade would come and go up to Europe and the rest of the world. And so now they're calling it their Belt and Road Initiative.
Starting point is 00:53:07 And the comments might solidify a few things that I have said in the way. the past. This is a gigantic development on this front. I want you to listen to some of the comments that the president said. He said, hey folks, how are you? Well, good afternoon. We've just wrapped up what has been an extraordinary, collaborative and productive meeting. The G7, everyone at the table understood and understands both the seriousness and the challenge we're up against and the responsibility of our proud democracies to step up and to step up and and deliver for the rest of the world. That's what the G.S.7 is all about.
Starting point is 00:53:49 And rallying the world's democracies to meet the challenges that the world faces. Do you remember what I told you yesterday, he said, was the challenge that the world faces, that all of these democracies face? Can they actually respond fast enough like a communist or fascistic country can? because China, they are public-private partnerships with business. And when I say that, I mean, the public, the government really kind of runs it. And once in a while, if one of the CEOs doesn't do what they say, then they publicly execute him. So it's great.
Starting point is 00:54:33 It's a nice partnership. And that's what they're working on, I mean, not the execution of, you know, know, CEOs yet. But this is what they're working on. He went on and said, we have to deliver for people, our people, and for all people, quite frankly, everywhere. And in a pandemic and maintaining robust support for an equitable, inclusive, global economic recovery, were top priorities of our nations as we get together.
Starting point is 00:55:08 So the top priorities of the GEOPLE, G7, equity, which is equal outcomes, inclusive global economic recovery, which means you've got to serve the poor first. And over the past few weeks, the nations of the G7 have affirmed that democratic values that underpin everything we hope to achieve in our shared future, that we're committed to put them to work. One, delivering vaccines and ending the pandemic. Two, driving a substantial inclusive economic recovery around the world. Three, fueling infrastructure development in places that most badly needed, and four, fighting climate change. Now, I don't know about you, but when I think of the president going overseas and meeting with the G7, I think, wow, I hope they're all committed to a substantial inclusive economic recovery. one that really addresses climate change, and that we not only build our infrastructure,
Starting point is 00:56:16 which is costing trillions of dollars, but we also build Africa's infrastructure, because I just think that's really good. Well, and we've raped the continent so thoroughly that, you know, we owe it to them. We owe it to him, obviously. Right, right. The only way we're going to meet the global threats is by working together with our, partners and allies. Last time the G7 met, there was no mention of China, but this time there is a mention of China. And G7 explicitly agreed to call out human rights abuses in Xinjiang and Hong Kong explicitly. Two, to coordinate common strategy to deal with China, the non-market policies
Starting point is 00:57:01 that undermine competition. They've agreed, and that's underway now, how to do that. Three, to take serious actions against forced labor in solar agriculture and in the garment industries, because that's where it's happening. They've all agreed to do that. By the way, all of these are stated goals from the Economic Forum, World Economic Forum of Great Reset. He said, I feel very strongly, I propose that we have a democratic alternative to the Belt and Road Initiative to build back better. Wow. And by the way, how much has our credibility been undermined by the fact that our government is running around the world telling everybody how racist we are and how awful we are about race? And that our human rights are no better than anybody else's.
Starting point is 00:57:56 And then we go to China and try to tell them about their human rights. Yeah, it's not working. Yeah, China has already said, don't lecture us about human rights. They've already said it. You're the most racist country. on the face of the earth. So we have no credibility. But remember, you can't have equity if Americans have the wealth that we currently have.
Starting point is 00:58:20 You can't because we are so far ahead of the rest of the world, you have to tear us down and destroy our economy and also destroy the supremacy of the U.S. dollar. Once you do that, you destroy our wealth, you destroy our dollar. you destroy our dollar, and then the world can think about equity. And it'll be really great, because we'll all be equal. I mean, some will be more equal than others, but certainly we'll all be equal. By the way, I got something from the White House yesterday, and they dropped it off yesterday, and I just want you to hear it. It's Joe Biden at his best.

Starting point is 01:07:15 Okay, let me go real quickly now, my friend, to the former Biden COVID-19 czar. Oh, I've missed these czars. here he is on COVID-19. How much of this pandemic was preventable and how? Well, of course, we would have had a pandemic here in the U.S. no matter what. But look, we can count the mistakes, and I think it's important that we do for nothing else so we don't repeat them. We obviously had a set of technical mistakes with the testing and the PPE that we know about. But if we're honest, we also had two other types of mistakes that cause a lot of loss of life.
Starting point is 01:07:56 one just plainly political leadership mistakes. There was a lot, we denied the virus for too long out of the Trump White House. There was too much squashing of dissent and playing on divisions. But I'd also think we all need to look at one another and ask ourselves, what do we need to do better next time? And in many respects, being able to sacrifice a little bit for one another to get through this and to save more lives is going to be essential. And that's something that I think we could all have done a little bit better on.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Right. We could have sacrificed a little bit more. You know, the sacrifice of 40% of all businesses now being closed, I mean, permanently out of business, only 40%. But I don't know if that sacrifice was good enough. Or the fact that teen suicide now is up at 31%. I think a few more of us could have sacrificed our children, you know, throw it up on the altar of,
Starting point is 01:08:54 of Anthony Fauci. I think we could have done it, right? Could have done it. Go to hell. Who do you think you are telling us that we should, we should sacrifice more? Oh my gosh. That is so reminiscent of Jimmy Carter in those days.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Isn't it? Oh, yeah, it is. Blaming everything on the American people. Everybody on the left, the media and everything, you know, Donald Trump was a little slow. Really? Was he? Because when he shut down Europe, when he shut down travel from China, you all belly ached and said, oh my gosh, what a racist. And you're on TV saying, come on down to Chinatown. Don't start with me. Some of us have memories. Now, you know, Lori Lightfoot, who is just delightful. I would say a fox, but yeah, she's just, she's just delightful. And she's, you know, taking some heat because she was, uh, she was only meeting with, you know, minorities, uh, reporters.
Starting point is 01:10:06 Uh, she didn't want to meet with any white reporters. Uh, now yesterday she came out and she said, or the day before yesterday, she came out and said, uh, you know, really, that only lasted two days. So it's really not a problem. Well, it only lasted two days because everybody on the planet hammered you for it. here she is speaking to John Berman, the Chicago Mary Laurie Lightfoot. Is she Gordon Lightfoot's mom? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:35 Or grandmother, because Gordon's only 82. I think she might be his grandmother. So, because he's quite a bit younger. I didn't know the connection. Because I've always, you know, I've looked at Lightfoot and I think Native American, but I never thought of Gordon Lightfoot. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:52 So does she know about the wrecking of the Edmonds Fitzgerald? Well, yeah, because it's a legend that lives on from the Chippewa on down, you know, on the big lake they call Gichigumi. So she knows. Right. She knows.
Starting point is 01:11:07 She knows. Okay. Here's Gordon Lightfoot's mom, Lori Lightfoot. I'm the mayor of the third largest city in the country. I'm an African-American town woman to state the obvious. Every day when I look out across my podium, I don't see people who look at. like me, but more to the point, I don't see people who reflect the richness and diversity of the city.
Starting point is 01:11:28 So, yes, I started a long overdue conversation about diversity in newsrooms and coverage. You all are the mirrors on society. You reflect with a critical and important lens, the news of the day. You hold public officials like me accountable. Stop, just pause it for a second. Keep that on screen. May I ask? No, no, see if you can keep that on screen. May I ask, Pat, my monitor here at the ranch is very small. Is he Native American or is he Indian or Hispanic? John Berman? The reporter.
Starting point is 01:12:07 Yeah. John Berman? So is he white? Well, yes. I think he's, I think he's actually white. Okay. I don't know because I can't see. He just looks from front.
Starting point is 01:12:18 I'm looking at a like two by two monitor here. Yeah. And he looks like an Indian, and I don't mean American Indian. And he looks a little constipated as well. So I think there might be some of that going on too. Well, that's probably his white guilt. If he's a white guy, that explains that. It's not constipation.
Starting point is 01:12:37 It's white guilt. By the way, for those who have been waiting, waiting for the follow-up to white fragility, I mean, some people I know didn't read it. and you have to read it because you won't understand the second one. There is another volume coming out in the series. It's called Nice Racism. And it's Robin DiAngelo's new book. I've been waiting for it.
Starting point is 01:13:07 I mean, I think the whole country has been saying, Robin, you can't leave us on that cliffhanger there at the end of white fragility. What happens to the main characters? So she has not. racism coming out. And she's, this one is written directly to white people. Oh. As a white person, uh, she identifies many common white racial patterns and breaks down how well-intentioned white people unknowingly perpetuate racial harm.
Starting point is 01:13:43 Uh, and I think that's great. Um, it's just, I'm glad somebody's finally willing to say it. Uh, she, He said those patterns include rushing to prove that we're not racist. Okay. Downplaying white advantage. Romanticizing black, indigenous and other peoples of color. It happens all the time.
Starting point is 01:14:06 I've been romanticizing that all the time. Me too. Sometimes I pretend to be all three at the same time. Black, indigenous, and other people of color. Yeah. That is so romantic. Isn't it? That is so romantic.
Starting point is 01:14:19 Yeah. Yeah. Pretending white segregation just happens. She's on to us. Yep. You know, I have to tell you in my last HOA meeting, which some say I never attend, but, oh, I'm there. Yeah. We were specifically, well, we didn't actually use these words, but we're like, how can we keep this neighborhood segregated?
Starting point is 01:14:46 And that's when a lot of the guys who are black that live in my neighborhood were like, excuse me? And I'm like, oh, oh, you're probably not black. You're probably a sellout to your race. And they were like, oh, yeah, I forgot. And then the feeling that we've all had, she explains the feeling, just feeling immobilized by shame. Wow. and I think that's what is happening to my son. I really do.
Starting point is 01:15:18 I thought it was just sheer, unadulterated laziness. But I think that it, no, I think he's immobilized by shame. And she, what's great is she writes candidly about her own missteps and her own struggles. You know, and to, she does it to encourage white readers to continually feel. their complicity and embrace courage the because you're going to need it in that lifelong commitment of accountability and I hear the table of contents what is a nice racist uh second chapter is the one i think i'm buying it for why it's okay to generalize about white people oh well that one is yeah because they're white obviously uh that's why it's okay it's a short book
Starting point is 01:16:13 It's a short book. What is a nice racist? One that, you know, doesn't beat you over the head and kill you. I mean, without a smile on their face. Why is it okay to generalize about white people? Because they're white. There is no choir, Chapter 3. I don't think you need more than the headline on that one.
Starting point is 01:16:36 What's wrong with niceness? Well, a lot. Honestly, a lot. People need to be in here. I mean, niceness doesn't always get you. No. You know, you got to be, you got to sometimes you have to set a city on fire to get people's attention. Still some shoes.
Starting point is 01:16:54 The moves of the white progressives. Hmm. I wonder if that chapter, that's chapter five in Robin DiAngelo's new book, Nice, Racism. The moves of white progressives, I wonder if that includes how all of those, white progressives that set up BLM, you know, the global network, how all those white people set that up and then built everybody who gave to BLM, you know, remember we told you, but of course Robin DiAngelo was saying, hey, BLM, donate to BLM, and who got rich?
Starting point is 01:17:36 The white liberal progressive, so. Well, and Patrice Cullors, obviously, they co-founded. of BLM. She made a few bucks on the on the side too, which was Oh, I couldn't disagree with you It didn't really anymore. She, yes, she's an accomplice
Starting point is 01:17:55 accomplished artist. Well, and just like And a trained Marxist as well So you know she right. All our intents are good. Yeah, and she knows how to make money As all Marxists do. Yes. You steal it from you steal it from others. Let me tell you

The scale may be broken, but it says that I have lost 15 pounds since the beginning of the year. And that's probably 14 pounds in the last two weeks. Anyway, finally started losing some weight, trying to lose weight and be more. healthy. Built bars are made with 100% real chocolate and unlike most of the protein bars out there, they don't taste like a doormat. They're low calorie, they're low carb, high fiber,

Or I could give you some fun stuff and some, you know, stuff that doesn't matter quite so much. And it's just good eating. You know what I'm saying? I like that. Which do you vote for? Oh, the good eating every time.
Starting point is 01:20:17 Every time. Good eating. Good eating. Do you have stuff from your show today that was good eating? That's good eating? Yeah. Yeah, that's just good fun. And, yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:26 Yeah. You know, actually, do you think the Roger Walters or Roger Waters thing is kind of... Oh, that's good eating. Kind of borderline. Yeah, it's good eating, but not as fun. Well, kind of it. Do you know who Roger Waters is? some would say that he's best known for Pink Floyd.
Starting point is 01:20:47 I would say he's best known for being second in line for the guy who hates Jews, and he's only behind Adolf Hitler perhaps. He is an anti-Semite of biblical proportions, but he did something the other day that caught my attention. He was at a forum of free speech and he came and he held up an envelope and here's what happened. This is something that I actually put in my folder when I came out here today. You have no idea what it is. Nobody does because it arrived on the internet to me this morning.
Starting point is 01:21:31 It's a request for the rights to use my song, another brick in the wall too. in the making of a film to promote Instagram so it's a missive it's a missive from Mark Zuckerberg to me right arrived this morning
Starting point is 01:21:54 with an offer of a huge huge amount of money and the answer is you no way and I I only mention that
Starting point is 01:22:06 because this is an insidious it's the insidious movement of them to take over. You know, I've written a new song, a new jingle really, for My Patriot Supply. It goes a little something like this. Mypatriotsupply.com for food that you want to eat.
Starting point is 01:22:37 So sit down and take a seat. Get your stockpile of emergency food. For your preparedness. Now, I didn't go past that because I can't find the rhyme yet for preparedness. But it's a tough one. Right now, my Patriot Supply, you'll save 25% off the absolute bare minimum you should have, which is a four-week food kit. Wow.
Starting point is 01:23:07 I don't have anything rest of that. But I think they're going to like it when it's finished. It's a little more salieri than Mozart, I'd say. Oh, you? Thank you. Wait a minute. Prepare with glenn.com. Get your really your bare minimum of the four-week food kit at 25% off right now.
Starting point is 01:23:27 Prepare with glen.com. Well, hello America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. I had some really fun and exciting things to share with you today. But I just asked for a poll of the listener, listeners of WIP, you know, what do you want to hear? Do you need some more serious stuff? Or would you like some, you know, some good news and some happy stuff?
Starting point is 01:24:27 And the audience said serious. Serious, serious, serious. So, Pat, now we're facing a decision here. Do we act like all those people in Washington that think they know better than the average. person? Or do we listen and heed the voice of the people?
Starting point is 01:24:53 And I think there's really only one choice. I mean, we obviously know better than the average. Yes. Ignore them. Yes. Combination of both. I have some really disturbing things. I've been waiting to talk to you about it, Pat,
Starting point is 01:25:11 and we haven't gotten around to it in the last show and a half. So I do want to hit this. It's something a serious that the FBI is doing that really bothers me. But we're going to start the hour with some really fun, good news. All right. Life lock. Ransomware. Ah, it sounds innocent and cute, doesn't it? It's like Tupperware. I'm having a ransomware party over at my house.
Starting point is 01:25:37 But the real nasty truth is it sucks. It's not like Tupperware. You don't want to have a party if it happens to you. You need LifeLock because there is absolutely, I have no idea how to protect myself from ransomware, do you? How much of my information is online right now? I don't know. Probably a lot, maybe, especially if I'm not protected by LifeLock, because they go down into the sewers, a place called the Dark Web, and they look for your information for sale on the dark web. Lifelock will help detect a wide range of identity threats, and they'll send you an alert,
Starting point is 01:26:19 but they don't just stop there because you get alert. Hey, your information's for sale on the dark web. Thank you. What they say is, call us if you need some help. Yes, I do. You'll get access to a dedicated restoration specialist if you do become a victim. Nobody can prevent all identity theft

Starting point is 01:27:13 Well, I think it is, but that's not what one dad did. His estranged daughter, when his child support ended, he dropped off his final child support payment, dumping 80,000 pennies on his wife's lawn. Oh, so I... That's not very nice. That's just not very nice. Funny, sure.
Starting point is 01:27:46 Hard to do. You bet. not as hard probably as picking them up out of the grass and then bringing and then bringing them to the bank to have them count all of them but hey it's legal tender it is legal tender
Starting point is 01:28:04 actually you can't do that can you pat I don't I didn't think you could I thought the banks could say no we're not accepting that I don't I'm not sure about the legality of that I don't know how you turn down legal tender though like you said it is legal so why not and especially since he paid her not
Starting point is 01:28:24 the bank here's your money although that's vindictive and i i i can't yeah not a good example for his daughter you know really um here's the uh here's some good news for you cnns hour long interview which clips were played all last week and people were talking about it was an interview with president Barack Obama. And it was needed at CNN because their ratings are really bad. And the interview did nothing for the bad ratings at CNN. Nobody watched. Nobody watched.
Starting point is 01:29:08 Half a million people probably extra for the Anderson Cooper 360. Watch the show. by the way, that was half of what Tucker Carlson had the same night. So President Obama not really heated very much. And you know why? Because most people on the left, and this is an honest observation by somebody who used to work for him. They told me privately that people were not. with him. The Marxists were not with him because they felt that he had sold out to Hillary Clinton and the Clinton gang, which in some ways he did. I mean, not from my perspective, because I think he did a lot of damage to the country, but not enough for the Marxists. And that's why he couldn't draw a crowd, why nobody had any passion, because he had become a guy that was there to play the corporate game and make lots and lots of money, which he did.
Starting point is 01:30:17 Now, Nickelodeon ratings are out. Have you seen what Nickelodeon is doing? Nick Jr. has released videos championing things like trans, queer, and pansexual inclusion. One video that sparked a lot of outrage depicted a cartoon version of a drag queen singing about various LGBT IA plus two groups loving each other so proudly
Starting point is 01:30:56 on Blue's Clues and you a show for two to five year olds and I think that's those were the clues that I was hoping Blue would find I don't know about you Pat but absolutely I want don't you, doesn't everybody want their two to five year old in touch with their sexuality and everybody else's?
Starting point is 01:31:15 Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you finally has Has somebody has the guts to say it Now the viewership has dropped from 1.3 million average viewers per week To 3702,000
Starting point is 01:31:31 Wow Oh that's great that is that's great Oh isn't it? Yeah isn't it? Yeah yeah so Looks like Paramount And and Nickelodeon are in some Gosh, darn it, financial trouble. Did you see John Stewart on, what's his name, the really obnoxious, not funny guy?
Starting point is 01:31:57 Stephen Colbert. Thank you for knowing that. Did you see him when he came out? I mean, I shouldn't have left it at that. Oh, he came out. Hmm. No, I just talking about the, he was talking about the vaccine, right? Or the, actually where the virus came.
Starting point is 01:32:16 him from. Is that what you're talking about? So this was the, yeah, this was the return of the Colbert Show to the Sullivan Theater because, you know, the vaccine is out now. And he walks on stage and he gets, you know, a standing ovation. And then he grinned widely as he embraced his band leader, John Batiste, which I have all of his album. And he said, we'd never really left.
Starting point is 01:32:46 but we certainly weren't here. And it's like the first day back at school. I'm really happy because we've all been vaccinated. I know I'm not going to get COVID. And a lot of people didn't take good care of themselves during the pandemic, but I want you to meet a good friend, John Stewart, everybody. And John Stewart walked out and listened to this. I think we owe a great debt of gratitude to sciences.
Starting point is 01:33:16 Science has in many ways helped ease the suffering of this, which was more than likely caused by science. Coffee, I wouldn't do that to you. I would do that to you. What do you mean by it? Do you mean like, there's a chance that this is created in a lab as an investigation? A chance. Oh, my God. There's evidence I'd love to hear.
Starting point is 01:33:56 There's a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking Wuhan, China. What do we do? Oh, you know, we could ask the Wuhan novel respiratory coronavirus lab? The disease is the same name as the lab. That's just a little too weird. Don't you think? And then we asked the scientists.
Starting point is 01:34:18 They're like, how did this, so wait a minute, you work at the Wuhan Respiratory Coronavirus Lab. How did this happen? And they're like, a pangolin kissed a turtle. And you're like, no. The name of your lab, and you look.
Starting point is 01:34:34 Look at the coronavirus lab in Wuhan. Oh, because there's a coronavirus loosing Wuhan. How did that happen? Maybe a bat flew into the cloaca of a turkey and then it squeezed into my chili. And now we all have corona. Like, come. Okay, wait a second. Wait a second.
Starting point is 01:35:05 Wait a second. Wait a second. All my break of chocolatey goodness. Near Hershey, Pennsylvania. What do you think happened? Like, oh, I don't know. Maybe a steam shovel, maybe with a cocoa bean. Or it's the fucking fat dancing.
Starting point is 01:35:32 That's funnier than John Stewart's been in 30 years. That was, that's good. It's brilliant, and it's the truth. And notice the audience is all for it, and Colbert is not. Colbert is like, well, you know, if there's actual evidence, I'd like to hear it. No, you know, Stephen, that's the funny thing about being a comedian. You sometimes play on the obvious to make people laugh. Now, I know you haven't, well, you've tried a long time, but you haven't made that happen, I think, ever.
Starting point is 01:36:06 Except when you were with John Stewart, isn't that weird? But John Stewart is not only making people laugh about it, he's stating, the obvious, and the audience is with him. It's with him. Every time Colbert tries to stop him, the audience, he's like, no, no, no, and the audience cheers. I think that was amazing. Now, let me give you Chuck Schumer, because he is so woke, so woke. And I want to give you a clip of what he was talking about when he was doing an interview.
Starting point is 01:36:42 he was wanting to build some extra housing for those in need. And here's what he said. And this initiative actually will house the homeless population that is actually living on our streets. We see them every day. Yes. We're about to house them. And they're against it. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 01:37:02 Yeah. I mean, I have found that my whole career. They wanted to build a, and when I first was assemblymen, they wanted to build a congregate living place for retarded children. No, neighborhood was against it. These are harmless kids. They just needed some help. Yeah. They're retarded.
Starting point is 01:37:22 They're just so sweet. All those retards. Thank you very much, Chuck Schumer. What a ridiculous. And, you know, they won't say anything about that. They won't say a word about that. But I'll bet you that what I
Starting point is 01:37:38 just said will be taken out of context. And they're glad back. said the R word. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right. I want to talk to you a little bit about something that is really bothering me. The FBI has just seized the safety deposit boxes that were rented in U.S. private vaults in Beverly Hills, California.
Starting point is 01:38:04 They have taken $86 million in cash and millions more in. in jewelry and other valuables. And the FBI is like, we're just going to keep it. I'll tell you that story in just a second. First, you've worked hard. American financing NMLS-182334. www. nmLS consumer access.org. You have worked so hard to get where you are today.
Starting point is 01:38:34 And I will tell you that there was a story, I mean, if this wasn't the brightest way to talk about, inflation. Americans are $2 billion richer because of the price of housing. Yeah, but we also know that the price of housing is a bubble and it's going to come down. Oh, no, no inflation. That's what are you talking about? Well, let me just say this.
Starting point is 01:39:01 The banks have said that they are now considering 5% interest rates, 5% interest rates, on new home loans. That is coming because you have to have higher interest rates to slow down inflation. I will tell you if they're serious about it, it will be higher than it was in the 1970s. It has to. It has to. And you're talking in the 1970s, a home loan was about 18 to 20 percent, and it's got to be higher than that. this is going to stop the heart of the nation.
Starting point is 01:39:43 While they're making the first move at 5%, so please call American financing right now. Get yourself locked into the low rates. This is going to get harder and harder for you to get a loan. If you're looking to get one, get one now. And roll your high-interest credit cards, please into your mortgages. Get out of those.
Starting point is 01:40:05 Because as the interest rate goes higher, you know, from the Fed or from the bank on loans, what do you think your credit card is going to charge you? American financing 800906 2440, 800906 2440, American financing.net. 10 seconds, station ID. So here's the interesting thing. Most people don't know, but after the crash of 2008 and September 11th,
Starting point is 01:40:49 the combination of that, the banks now, the federal government, has the right to send a DHS officer into every safety deposit box. If you are keeping money there, if you have things in there, you will have to open it in front of a Department of Homeland Security person if they choose. That's never happened before. That was your private box, your private information, but that is a way that they are going to make sure that people aren't hoarding cash or whatever. Even though there's a story out today from Jamie Diamond, how J.P. Morgan is now hoarding, that's his words, hoarding cash because of the inflation that is coming. The box holders that were in Beverly Hills, this was not in a bank, partially because most of the people who use, this vault were not dirty. They just didn't believe in the banks. There was $86 million in cash
Starting point is 01:41:56 and jewelry inside of the safety deposit boxes in this vault. They opened every door and they took everything in every drawer. Now, why? Well, the FBI says because this was a money laundering place And some people were using that to launder money. Okay, but what about everybody else? How much money was that? And what about everybody else that wasn't involved in the money laundering schemes? Well, the FBI says they don't know who was involved and who wasn't. So they're going to have to keep that $86 million and millions more in jewelry and other things that were found in the safety deposit boxes.
Starting point is 01:42:46 This has got to stop. This asset forfeiture has got to stop. It's one of the most unconstitutional and un-American things I've seen in my lifetime. It's hard to believe it continues. And, you know, we were talking about some of the cases that the Supreme Court was going to take on by July. This isn't one of them. And I don't understand why. I don't know why they won't fix this because it's absolutely unbelievable.
Starting point is 01:43:15 People aren't even charged with crimes. And they lose tens of thousands of dollars. Yeah, if you had your money, if you had your money in one of those safety deposit boxes and somebody is laundering money and keeping dirty drug money or whatever in one of the safety deposit boxes, you're going to lose yours as well. This is so unconstitutional, so fascistic. And by the way, this whole thing was started by Ronald Reagan. So, you know, Republicans, you better damn fix them.
Starting point is 01:43:48 It was started by Reagan, and it was started under the RICO laws, and he was trying to go after the Gambino family and everything else. And what they were doing was taking this money. If you had, if you got a drug lord, then they could take the boat and the cars and the houses and sell it, and it would go to the treasury. That was the way to really hurt these drug lords. But now it's been twisted into anything. you know, even the one that Reagan passed requires that you have evidence first and then you take the property. What they have is suspicion and then they take all of the property. This is not good.
Starting point is 01:44:32 Rather than... It's not good at all. Rather than being found guilty by a jury of your peers and then confiscating the ill-gotten booty. It's unbelievable. Yeah. you in this case you have to prove that you're innocent and even then most times you don't get your stuff back right that ain't america that is not america and it is going to become more and more prevalent in the coming days and months this is the glit right so legacy box not to be confused with a
Starting point is 01:45:15 you know, a private box that you find in the banks. Legacy box, the FBI, is just not going to take it there. They're not going to take your stuff. Because in the legacy box, it is all of your home movies and your photos. And quite honestly, sometimes that's worth more than all the money you have. 850,000 families have digitally preserved their past now. I was going through some media with my mother-in-law when we had the, the unfortunate death of my my brother-in-law just here recently.
Starting point is 01:45:51 And I looked through their stuff and the pictures are all fading when it came to us, the videotape, the camcorder tape, the film reels, and honestly formats, I couldn't even remember what machine that worked in.

Hey, this is a Glenn Beck program. Personal note before we finish up here this last half hour, I am going to a nephew's wedding in the middle of absolutely. to nowhere. So I think we have to travel by wagon train to get there.
Starting point is 01:46:55 I'm not really sure. But I'm going to be gone for the next few days so I can be with the family. It's kind of like a family reunion and celebration. He's a great, great kid. And his father passed away, and he actually called me and asked me if I would give the father's toast. and I don't know what to say. I mean, what an honor. What an honor to be asked to do that.
Starting point is 01:47:24 But I'll be back next week. All right. Pat, let's go through a couple of things that are important. First of all, the local Fox News reporter that said, my company is musling me. And I'm tomorrow morning, Project Veritas. Looks like they're going to be doing something tonight on that story. I can't believe they didn't.
Starting point is 01:47:46 cut her off. Yeah. I don't know if they just didn't think of it or they weren't paying attention. Sometimes, you know, you just go to the next segment and you're not listening. But, and then maybe that was the case. Or maybe they thought, you know, like it makes it a bigger deal if they cut her off. I don't know, but it's weird. Or maybe they just thought, what is she talking about?
Starting point is 01:48:06 Yeah. I mean, when she said Fox Corp is, is trying to muzzle me. Uh, on what? I can't wait. hear what that is. I can't wait to hear what that is. I know. Yeah. The Supreme Court is taking on some big cases this summer and we should be aware. And also, is it just me, Pat, or have you noticed recently, and I think more than in my lifetime, and again, maybe it's just me, but they have come out with nine to zero, nine to zero, nine to zero, nine to zero on all.
Starting point is 01:48:46 Right? Yeah, repeatedly. Right? Over the last month. More than usual. Oh, by far. They almost never have 9 to nothing rulings. And no. Some think it might be a signal to the Biden administration to back off this packing the court thing. And that's a great move if that's what it is, telling him, hey, we don't need 13 Supreme Court justices. We're together. See this? Nine to nothing. that just doesn't happen. So we're together, unlike you politicians. It's pretty powerful. Wow. And, you know, maybe they'll pay attention. I don't know. But because I've noticed also a lot of the cases are coming out in our favor, in the
Starting point is 01:49:33 conservative favor. Yeah, definitely. They've made some good rulings lately. Right. And even Kagan's been on, I mean, it's been bizarre. It's been bizarre. And I don't know if it's Roofies or what. But let's keep going.
Starting point is 01:49:49 So what are the cases they're taking on now this month? They've got a landmark religious liberty case dating back to the 2014 decision in Burl versus Hobby Lobby. Remember that where religious liberty was at stake there? Oh, this was, yeah. This was happening around the same time as the, you know, the mothers of, you know, St. Teresa or whatever. told you gotta give condoms to people right and hobby lobby didn't want to provide i think was it abortion health care health care yeah oh yeah yes yes yes yes yes they would provide health care but not for abortions right uh so um you know they've they've ruled on a few of those things but kind of in a limited way
Starting point is 01:50:36 this might open things up and just protect the first amendment once and for all that's what i'm hoping i'm hoping this isn't just going to be some narrow little ruling that allows somebody to slip through right here. But they make the decision to back the First Amendment. That would be nice if they make a strong statement there. But that's pending. They're also tackling some election law cases because, of course, the Republicans are just shutting down everybody's ability to vote.
Starting point is 01:51:04 You can't vote in Georgia or Texas if you're a person of color. And we all know that. Yeah. So that is going to be interesting. White people, we know that. because all white people meet in secret racist meetings. And we laugh. Every Tuesday night at the road.
Starting point is 01:51:21 Yeah, it's the Rotary Club. You know, people think that's just a harmless little thing that kind of helps the neighborhoods. It's not. It's where all white people gather. 7.30, Tuesdays, Denny's. No minorities allow. So there's also going to be another challenge to ObamaCare. You know, there's been three so far.
Starting point is 01:51:44 and this, I mean, it's the thing that you just can't kill. It's the thing from the Black Lagoon that just keeps coming back to life. And so they're going to rule on another aspect of Obamacare. And everybody suspects it's going to survive, yet another Supreme Court challenge. And then finally, the other big thing is that they're going to take on a First Amendment case as it applies to social media. So this started with a Pennsylvania high school. school cheerleader being penalized by her school because she was pissed off that they uh i i forget what she was angry about but she flipped off the school posted it on social media and got suspended
Starting point is 01:52:26 yes she was she was in her friends uh pissed about something and they said uh and she posted this video off campus right uh she and her friend were hanging out uh someplace and they went you know what F cheer F, you know The school Right and and and they said If the Supreme Court rules Against her
Starting point is 01:52:54 It will mean that your social life Your social media life Will follow you All the time So in other words Anything that you say Can and will be held against you By your company
Starting point is 01:53:12 or by your church or whoever wants to say, yeah, the school can say, no, I'm sorry, they're always, once in school, always in school. School follows them home 24-7 for 12 years of their life. That's a dangerous, dangerous thing to set. Now what the Biden administration is saying is that ending their authority over students at the schoolhouse gates could make it harder to curb bullying and race. and cheating and invasion of privacy all frequently occur online and we need to be able to nip that in the bud. No. If it's not happening on school grounds, it's none of your business. You can't control what they're doing at home. Let the parents deal with that, but the school, it's got to stay out of it. So anyway, the Supreme Court is going to rule on that. And this is the way to entrap all of us
Starting point is 01:54:09 with the internet. Do you remember when I talked to, gosh, what was his name, Schmidt from Google? And I asked him, I said, why,
Starting point is 01:54:21 why did you say a few years ago that by 2025, kids will have to change their names? And he said, well, what I meant by that was there's going to be so much information gathered on them
Starting point is 01:54:35 that they won't, they'll be overloaded by the time they're 25, or 20, they will not be able to get a job. They won't be able to do anything because there will be so much out there against them that they said in a stupid post. Right. Well, I think we're there. It's not 20, 25.
Starting point is 01:54:55 Yeah, we're there. And if you continue to give these people power, it's only going to get much, much worse. Hey, can we play the rest of that Roger Waters thing? I can't believe I'm playing something from him. But he was at a Freedom of Speech conference, and I, you know, and I'm not sure that he actually believes in freedom of speech. He believes in freedom of speech probably like the Marxists do. You know, if you agree with us, you have freedom of speech, but if you don't, you don't
Starting point is 01:55:27 have any freedom of speech. But he was talking about how Mark Zuckerberg offered him a lot of money to use his song. And what he said after he said no in a not so polite way is really important. Listen to this. This is something that I actually put in my folder when I came out here today. You have no idea what it is. Nobody does because it arrived on the internet to me this morning. It's a request for the rights to use my song, another brick in the wall too.
Starting point is 01:56:05 in the making of a film to promote Instagram. So it's a missive, it's a missive from Mark Zuckerberg to me, right? Arrived this morning with an offer of a huge, huge amount of money. And the answer is, you. No, that way. And I, listen.
Starting point is 01:56:31 I only mentioned that because this is an insidious, it's the insidious movement of them to take over absolutely everything so those of us who do have any power and I do have a little bit in terms of the control of the publishing of my songs I do anyway
Starting point is 01:56:49 so I will not be a party to this bullshit Zuckerberg we want to thank you for considering this project he's reading the letter the core sentiment of this song is still so prevalent and necessary today which speaks to how
Starting point is 01:57:04 timeless a work is true and yet They want to subjure it. They want to use it to make Facebook and Instagram even bigger and more powerful than it already is so that it can continue to censor all of us in this room. That's incredible. But like you said, I think he only means the left wing. Means those in the room. Yes.
Starting point is 01:57:30 Yeah. The people in the room. I would have been in that room. I don't know a soul on the. left that will fight for my free speech. And yet, I will fight for their free speech and their right to say it on any platform, you know, a public platform like those are supposed to be. I don't have a problem with them saying it.
Starting point is 01:57:55 I just turn it off if I don't like it. I've never called for people to be fired because of words that they've said. I'll fight for them. Fight for them. Do you know of a single leftist, Marxist, liberal that has ever said anything like that to us? No. The one I would think might feel that way, but I don't know if I've ever heard him say it, is Bill Maher. You know, maybe Bill Maher might defend your freedom of speech.
Starting point is 01:58:23 Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. but that's when we know the left has become reasonable at all. And I don't see it happening, but, you know, if you just, this is what we used to agree on. We used to agree on the Bill of Rights. You know, we talked a minute ago about them going into your safety deposit box and just taking money. And the FBI says, well, we don't know if it wasn't criminal money or not, so we're just going to keep it.
Starting point is 01:58:56 That's the Fourth Amendment being violated there. You can't do that. And that's the important thing, is we must protect everyone from incursion into our Bill of Rights. That's what we used to all agree on. I remember my dad saying all the time, I disagree with what he says, but I will fight to the death for his ability to say it. that's how we come together. Is there enough people out there? I think there is.
Starting point is 01:59:34 Are there enough people that will say that on both sides? It will be found soon. So I know the image it pops into your head when you picture my home life. There I am in my exercise clothes. Fresh off an hour-long run, you know, around the compound, drinking my organic carrot and lemon grass smoothie in preparation for lifting. weights the rest of the afternoon. I know. I know. It's, you know, it's close. It's close to my life. I kind of give off that vibe. But what would probably shock you to know is that I actually spend
Starting point is 02:00:13 a lot of time just sitting down on the couch. I know. It's crazy. No. Yeah, watching Netflix or something. Occasionally, I'll glance either in the refrigerator or my Rectec app on my phone. and I just see, okay, is the food almost ready? And when it is, that's when I get up most times, most times.
