Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Let's see.
We've got, oh, Janet Yellen has admitted she was wrong
about inflation. Gosh, you only have one job. You were the Fed chair. Your job is to make sure
inflation doesn't happen. And then you went to the Treasury and you can't recognize inflation.
That's like me. I'm here on location and I'm, oh, I'm sorry. I was just told I was talking into a pen.
That's your expertise, and you can't recognize it?
We'll talk about that.
Also, Joy Behar says gun manufacturers are grooming kids.
I'm going to take a 60-second break before my head explodes, and then we'll get into it.
First, here's Rough Greens.
Let me tell you about a decision I'm never going to regret.
A decision I made for my dog because my dog can't talk, which is weird.
I don't know about your dog.
Mine's a little slow, I guess.
Uno is happier and healthier.
He has gained weight.
He is, I mean, when I first found Rough Greens, he loved it.
And he loved it so much, I'm like, this is dog crap.
There is something in this that makes him crave it.
And I brought it to the...
the vet and said, hey, should I feed this to my dog?
I mean, he really, really likes it.
And she looks at the bag and looks at everything in it.
And she's like, oh, yeah, no, this is great.
Is he eating more?
And I'm like, yeah.
And she's like, that's great.
Feed it to him.
Roughgreens.com.
I've seen a difference in my dog.
I think you'll see one in yours.
Make sure your dog likes it.
And in fact, they want to make sure that your dog likes it and you're not having to pay for
that little test.

the months. It is rough greens, r ufffgreens.com slash Beck or call 833 GLEANN-33.
Okay. So I've got some good news and we'll get into this here in a second. But Tom Tillis,
Chris Murphy, who I love.
John Cornyn, oh, he's the best.
They're in some very constructive gun reform talks right now.
And I'm going to get into some of their reform.
Oh, no, no.
They are so good.
In fact, let me just quote Chris Murphy from Connecticut.
It is true, you know, Republicans are not willing to support everything
that I support, like banning assault weapons. Murphy told CBS's
face the nation last Sunday. But I really think that we could pass something that
saves lives and breaks this log jam that we've had for 30 years, proving to
Republicans that if you vote to tighten the nation's gun laws, the sky doesn't
fall for you politically. Oh, oh, listen, Republicans, yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will. I'm
not afraid. You will be. You will be. Meanwhile, Joy Behar gets on TV yesterday. I guess people still watch
TV and The View for some strange reason. And Sonny Holston. Is it Hosten or Holstein?
I think it's hostess. Hostess. Okay, good. Why doesn't Congress do something about this
gun thing. When you look at it, let's say Daniel Defense, the gun manufacturer, I mean,
I think we have a copy of the ad. They're marketing to children and families. Look at this.
I find it insulting. They're saying, train up a child in the way he should go. When he's old,
he will not depart from it. That's Proverbs. It's such a disturbing ad. Daniel Defense has since deleted
this toddler tweet, but they actively are marketing towards children. Behar said,
I think they call that grooming.
It is grooming.
Is it?
Is it really?
That's also not an ad for children.
That's an ad for adults who want to think about, you know, the, the, the, they think about
back to their childhood, think about the legacy as their children get older.
That's a targeting to, to adults who are actually going to be the one purchasing the firearms.
Yeah, not true.
Not true.
I know every toddler, every toddler out there goes.
I'm to raise up a child.
I guess that's all I can remember now.
Yeah, no, it's right to the children.
So let me talk a little bit about grooming, Joy.
The number of men and women under 30,
who reported exclusively heterosexual partners
has dropped now from 96% in the 1990s to 92% in 2021.
according to the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology.
However, most surveys indicate that the number of Americans under 30 who identify as LGBT is around 20%.
Hmm.
Now, that's weird.
What's happened there?
The majority of the increase in LGBT identity can be traced to how those who only engage in heterosexual behavior describe themselves.
The 2008 attitudes and behavior are similar.
By 2021, LGBT identification was running at twice the rate of LGBT sexual behavior.
So, wait a minute.
20% except it's running in behavior exactly the same.
Huh.
What could be going there?
Most liberal survey respondents moved from about 10 to 15% non-hetal.
in 2016 to 33% somebody's printing homosexuals.
It's a far bigger shift than any other group.
LGBT identification was also disproportionately associated with anxiety and depression in young people.
And the group which grew the most among the LGBT community were bisexuals,
significant majority of whom were women.
University students majoring in social sciences and humanities were found to be about 10 points more LGBT than those studying STEM.
Huh.
Do lesbians and homosexuals not like the sciences?
Hmm.
52% of students taking highly political majors such as race or gender studies,
52% are LGBT.
Huh.
Now, according to the report, various surveys indicate that gender nonconformity,
such as identifying as transgender or non-binary, is actually on the decline after reaching its peak.
Huh.
Do you think that has anything to do with grooming?
Oh, by the way, grooming?
An arrest warrant has been filed for 28-year-old former Oklahoma minnesota.
middle school teacher, Ivy Renault. She's accused of allegedly sending nude pictures to a 16-year-old
student. If convicted, she faces felony charges for using technology to engage in communication
for sexual or Purian interest with a minor. She's also the assistant soccer coach and has said
to make the move after meeting the student at practice and overhearing rumors that he liked her.
somebody hasn't moved on from grade school.
By the way, the BBC has altered now the alleged rape victims quote
to avoid misgendering her transbiological male attacker.
Stu, you saw Ricky Jervase.
This was his opening comedy routine.
British Broadcasting Company under fire after a staff,
that the news agency altered a rape victim's quotes to avoid misgendering her biological male
transgender attackers pronouns. The paper reported that BBC Diversity Team made the unethical
and disrespectful decision to change a rape's victim quotes about a lesbian woman who field
pressure to have sex and relationships with a biological man who identifies as a transgender woman.
In the article, one lesbian victim recounted her experiences with the transgender woman who physically forced her to have sex with him after a date and allegedly threatened to ostracize her if she refused.
She discussed the horrifying experience with the BBC using he and him pronouns.
However, the news agency changed those pronouns to they and them.
So you got that going for you.
Do you remember that comedy routine for Marquis Jervais?
There's no such thing as comedy anymore.
Yeah.
What if she, what if he rapes me?
What if she rapes me?
We are living in insanity.
By the way, I know you love Taco Bell.
There's something very, very exciting that you can attend.
Fans who attend this new event will see Cats.
Captivating visual backdrops.
Ooh.
Cravable breakfast menus.
Ah.
Thrilling lip sinks.
Ah, that sounds like.
And extraordinary high kicks and dips.
According.
Sounds great.
Yeah, to Taco Bell.
Taco Bell has launched now a series of drag bunch, uh, sorry, drag brunch events.
Ooh.
Hosted by the fabulous drag performer and Taco extraordinaire, KCedia.
Oh, they got KCedia?
Kcadia.
Yes, and casidia, I guess.
Ksidi.
Oh, so Ksidiya, not Ksidiya.
Why would it be pronounced KSidiya if they're trying to play off Kisadea?
My guess this is pronounced Kisidia.
I can hear the worst.
You know, this is typical of you.
In the beginning of Pride Month, here we are.
Yeah.
June 1st.
Yeah.
The first day of Pride Month, and not only do you slander Kisidia.
Yeah.
But you bring this.
hate to the table.
Yeah.
And also with that, you bring hate and no nachos, unlike Taco Bell.
All I'm saying is, all I'm saying is I think grooming is happening somewhere and I don't think it's in the gun world.
I think grooming is happening.
Oh, by the way, other kind of grooming is happening with our kids.
School children are used to eating hot dinners such as fish and chips, spaghetti and lasagna.
But children at four primary schools in Wales.
are set to take part in workshops organized by scientists and teachers to inform them about the
benefits of eating alternative protein, i.e. bugs. These will include plant-based foods and may
involve edible insects depending on whether they received the novel foods approval by the
Food Standards Agency.
These will be in the form of conventional mints, which combine plant-based and alternative
protein.
So they are now experimenting with our children and trying to show them how great it is to
eat frickin' bugs.
Meanwhile, in Illinois, school leadership previewed plans for eliminating zeros
from the grade book.
and instead encourage and reward growth over time.
High school in a Chicago suburb is going away and getting rid of punishing students
for not turning in homework on time or failing to participate in class
on the basis of upholding political values and racial equity.
According to West Cook News, the administration at Oak Park and River Forest High School,
school in Illinois is planning this radical overhaul for the upcoming school year.
Students will reportedly no longer be punished for missing classes or failing to turn in homework
because it impacts black students more.
I would not show up or do any homework at this school.
Why assign it?
Also, isn't that incredibly racist?
Yes.
Yes.
So black kids, that's them just saying black kids don't do homework and are bad at school.
That's what that, you just summarize that point.
Hold on just a second.
The stated end goal of the plan is to have equitable assessment and grading practices implemented throughout all school courses by autumn 2020.
Many teachers are successfully exploring and implementing more equitable grading practices, such as utilizing aspects.
of competency-based grading,
eliminating zeros from the grade book,
and encouraging and rewarding
growth over time.
The school said the teachers
will make grading improvements
that reflect our core beliefs.
So what they're doing,
a teacher may unintentionally let
non-academic factors like student behavior
or whether a student showed up to a virtual class
or anything like that
will interfere with their final evaluation of schools.
Showing up to class is a non-academic behavior.
That's a personal bias.
Oh, I thought you're supposed to show up to class throughout school, like the entire time.
But that was just, I was doing that because I had maybe personal choices to go.
Chicago schools have now had segregated field trips in a year that was the battleground for teachers' unions making demands about how and when school systems return to in-person learning.
So they've got this great thing.
that you're going to be graded on a curve based on your race.
So if you are white, your curve, you get a lower grade.
And if you're black or Hispanic, definitely not Asian, you get a higher grade.
Because what?
Black people can't do things?
Is that what you're saying?
Seems to be what they're saying.
America, you have to wake up soon on who the racist is,
who is just lowering standards so they can have just a bunch of slaves that can't read or write or think.
That is the grooming in our schools.
Back in a minute.

Tonight is one of the more important shows that I've done in a while.
This is up there with the impeachment, if you really want to understand that, an ESG.
And when I say your kids are being groomed, what are they being groomed for?
Well, think of all the things that are wrong in our country right now.
We have food shortages.
And believe me, please, please.
You know, my grandfather taught me in the Depression.
If we would have only known what the rich were doing, we would have done it.
And we would have been, we would have survived.
And if we had money going into the Depression, it was easier to survive.
I talked to people.
I just spent the weekend with a dinner.
with a bunch of people who were
hundred millionaires and
billionaires and I just sat there
you know like a
like a you know
a bump on the log
and I just said to them
so what do you think is coming our way
and what do we do
please there's an opportunity
for you for you to hear
what rich people are doing
but you have to do it
if you believe it
because they are living a different life right now.
They are doing different things.
There's an under supply of labor, housing and commodities, a coming energy crisis.
We're about to have, you know, real food shortages.
Our homes starved of energy, cars starved of fuel.
How can this get worse?
It is going to get worse.
The Build Back Better Bill was stalled, but that didn't stop them.
plans were set in motion within the government during the final days of the Trump administration.
He had nothing to do with it.
Tonight, I'm going to show you what government agencies are doing, a global government, a global government,
and the plans that are already in place with the help of the Biden administration.
It is a man-made disaster turned into crisis, turned into opportunity.

Hello, Stu.
Glenn, how are you?
Good, how are you?
Oh, good.
You seem a little down today, I feel like.
Not down. I'm pensive.
Pensive.
Pensive.
Yes.
Pensive.
I don't know.
I seem.
There's more than pensive going on, I feel like with you.
It's just, you know, I've, uh, I've, uh,
We've got a lot to talk about on the economy today, a lot, that people really need to understand.
I have to convince my wife now to take what remaining money we have in the stock market out of the stock market while it's up today.
And I, you know, I just, there's just a lot going on, just a lot going on when it comes to, you know, the,
the economy and inflation.
And I don't think people understand yet.
This is just beginning.
Just beginning.
Jenny Yellen said,
oh, you know, I was, whoops, whoopsie, got that one wrong.
First I said it wasn't, there was no inflation.
Then I said it was nothing to worry about.
Then I said it was transitory.
Then I said, okay, there's some inflation.
and now I go, dear mother of God, what have we done?
Jeez.
Did you see this clip of, I think it's, I should know.
Of course, it is Peter Ducey, because he's the only one who ever asks.
Ever asked.
Any difficult questions to the White House spokesperson.
But the new White House spokesperson, which we should know, it is Pride Month.
And this spokesperson happens to be LGBT to IA plus.
That is so good.
And it's so important for you to know that in this particular month of Pride Month.
Yeah, no, it is.
I mean, she totally would have been hired if she was not LGBTQA2 plus.
No, I don't think so.
No, I mean, 100%.
No, I don't think so.
Definitely the best person from the job independent of her sexuality or color of her skin.
Yeah.
It has nothing to do with that.
You just independently, this is the best person in America.
just has the mastery of every issue.
Now, yeah, sure, she has to look down and read every single answer to every question,
but that has nothing to do with it.
It's just individual mastery of this material.
That's the reason she has this job.
Yeah.
And she was asked by Peter Ducey,
I know Vladimir Putin is most of this inflation,
but is any of it your responsibility?
Hey, got, listen to this. Here it is.
Issue.
And you just mentioned Putin a few times as a reason for recent inflation.
Do you guys think that any part of inflation this year is because of President Biden's spending plans?
Or is it all Putin's fault?
Well, what I can say is we are, and Brian just spoke to this, we are at a historic place when it comes to the economy.
Oh, it's historic.
When it comes to unemployment being at the lowest that we have seen in some time.
When it comes to the president creating more jobs in his first.
first term, his first year, than any other present.
Because no one was going to work.
Everything was closed down.
We told you, you can pause it.
We told you, hey, guys, you're not allowed to go to work.
All of the businesses need to close.
And now he's adding jobs like crazy from that, compared to that era.
Yeah.
Where people were literally not allowed by their employer to come to work,
where demand was depressed artificially.
in a way that we've never been seen in world history,
but let's take credit for that.
After arguing for the closings,
now let's take credit for the eventual openings.
So you know, they're back in front of the courts
arguing for the mask mandates to come back.
Oh, good.
So they just announced that yesterday.
I don't know if anybody saw this from the CBO,
which is always wrong, always wrong,
when it comes to spending.
then they're always right when they're like,
dear mother of God, what's happened?
Okay.
The Congressional Budget Office has just confirmed that President Joe Biden is blameworthy
for the record high inflation that is punishing workers.
Further, this nonpartisan source says that Biden's preferred fix, raising taxes,
will only make the economy worse.
The CBO's annual economic outlook adds further force to the arguments against Biden made by other Democrats, such as former President Barack Obama's National Economic Council Director Larry Summers.
The CBO squarely blames Biden's 2021 COVID stimulus package for today's high inflation.
The CBO noted that the stimulus checks were sent to every family and it significantly boosted.
demand, causing inflationary pressure on its own. But there's more. By paying workers not to work,
Biden's COVID stimulus artificially slowed the recovery of labor force participation. So in other
words, it's not the jobs he created. It's the jobs he stopped from being created. This lack of
workers strained supply chains, thus providing a second source of upward pressure on prices.
The CBO predicts that this Biden caused inflation will persist into the next year,
tempered only by the Federal Reserve's willingness to raise interest rates.
And what does that do?
What does raising the interest rate?
It stops you from buying a house.
It stops companies from taking out loans.
It stops people out stopping taking loans to start a new business.
So that's their solution, gang.
Biden also wants to make the economic.
situation worse, this according to the CBO, by repealing the 2017 tax cuts and jobs act.
Speaking of which, the CBO is reporting that former President Donald Trump's signature tax bill
had been a boon to both the economy and to the government coffers.
According to the CBO, federal corporate income tax collections in 2017, before the rate cut,
came in at $297 billion.
By 2021, they had jumped to $372 billion, a 25% increase in taxes being delivered to the IRS in just four years,
which significantly outpaces inflationary growth,
and amounts to a larger percentage of the overall economy.
tax cuts generated more tax revenue for the IRS.
This is something we've talked about since about 2004.
It's long before that.
I mean, this program.
Right.
And this has happened, by the way, within a few years of every single tax cut, every single one of them.
And what the left will do and the media will do will say, well, if you would have kept the tax rates higher, you would have even more.
You wouldn't.
You might.
But like, our goal is not to fund the government to levels never before seen.
That should not be our goal as a society.
Our goal isn't to give more money and more power to the government so we can have less.
That is not our goal.
You know, the fact that the government is taking in more dollars than it was a few years ago before the tax cut should show all of this panic that is constantly out there about tax cuts.
is fraudulent. This occurs every single time. All the times, this thing happens. And yet every time
there's a tax cut, we're told that we're going to run out of money, that we're going, we're not.
We have a spending problem in this country, not a revenue problem. And, you know, it's funny,
Glenn, when they went through COVID, we spent multiple trillions of dollars because we told everyone
they had to be home. And even with all that spending, there was a belief,
among a lot of economists that it wouldn't be this bad, right?
It wasn't until Biden decided to spend $1.9 trillion more dollars after COVID and the worst
of COVID had passed.
And people were coming back to work and demand was already showing that it was already
ramping up.
He then after that decided to spend $1.9 trillion.
And another trillion on infrastructure, by the way, which the Republicans are just as much
to blame as Biden is for at least that chunk of it. And that is what has really fueled this inflationary
period beyond what might have been expected from a real catastrophe. Here's what I want you to know.
Listen carefully to me. Please. Can you imagine paying a dollar per egg, $12 a dozen? If you can't
imagine it, wait a few months because this is what is happening.
The USDA is now starting to predict overwhelming price increases.
The highest predicted change in food costs in well over 40 years.
The USDA is now warning in their revised May food price outlook that things are
grim.
Here it is.
The first wave was December and January.
Wave 2 March, April inflation.
However, there is data now that there is a third wave and it is double the prior two waves.
The USDA predicts egg prices will increase by 19 to 20 percent from where they are
right now.
They also say there will be regions with much higher retail increases than that.
Two months ago, USDA had egg inflation at 2.5 or 3.5 year over year.
So they've moved it from the high of 3.5 to a forward outlook of 20.5.
Food at home, grocery store prices, up 7 to 8% percent.
in the monthly review versus the April outlook of a rise of 5 to 6%.
So when they say prices are going up, prices rose 8.1% and there is no reason to think that the forecast
will not rise again. If you look at the prices at the supermarket,
And how it's increased in the last six months, the USDA is now saying double that.
And that's what you're looking for late this fall.
This is going to, we're going to have serious problems, serious problems.
Because how do you even get to the grocery store if gas is $7 a gallon?
How do people get from their farm into town at 7?
dollars a gallon.
This is all a manufactured crisis.
This is all because of what the government is doing.
To quote Barack Obama, your prices will necessarily go up.
I believe the term was skyrocket, Glenn.
Thank you.
This is a well-laid plan.
And I will show you why they're doing it tonight.
because I'll show you the second wave of control that is just around the corner and the foundations are already laid.
It's already in.
So why would you need all of this infrastructure?
Why would FEMA need to go from a react to a crisis to a prevent a crisis organization?
Huh. And what does that even mean? And did you vote for it? Did you know it was happening?

America, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Well, what is going on with our banks and investment?
Up in Canada, the Scotia Bank has now apologized to those that had frustration and inconvenience
because they froze the bank accounts if you were connected to the Freedom Convoy.
please accept our sincere apologies for the frustration and inconvenience this situation may have caused
and thank you for your patience while we prepared our response.
This is a letter that has just gone out.
They're apologizing now.
Did they want to do that?
Did they volunteer?
Were they forced to do that?
Our money is being manipulated and used against us.
Quite a charge to make.
But Daniel Cameron, the Kentucky Attorney General, can go into ESG and stakeholder capitalism
and how they're using our money to do things you didn't vote for and it's actually costing you.
60 seconds, we'll talk to him.
Let's say you wanted a child to build a kitchen table.
Okay, I mean, assuming you know what you're doing.

dot com. Daniel Cameron is joining us now. He's the Kentucky Attorney General, the 51st Attorney General
for the Commonwealth of Kentucky. He's the first African-American independently elected to statewide
office in Kentucky's history and the first Republican elected to the Attorney General's office
since 1948. Daniel, welcome to the program. How are you? I'm doing well, Glenn. Thank you so much for
having me on this morning. Thank you for everything that you're doing. You're one of these
attorney generals that are taking ESG very seriously. And you say that stakeholder capitalism,
environmental, social, and governance investment practices actually violate the laws of Kentucky,
right? Yeah. Glenn, that's right. It is inconsistent with state law. And honestly,
I think if you look at our law or if you even look at some of
the language in ERISA itself, the requirement of investors regarding pension systems here in the
commonwealth indicate that the way that the investments are supposed to work is that they are
solely to bring and bring money for the beneficiary.
And so that is the sole mission and purpose of an investment.
And so when you see things like ESG that are ancillary interests and could have a consequential negative impact on the investments of teachers, firefighters, law enforcement, other state public employees, that's something that as AG of Kentucky I'm going to stand up against and make sure that folks here in the Commonwealth know that we're going to be watching this very closely.
to ensure that the investment practices are done in a way that is solely for the benefit of the beneficiary,
as opposed to some of these insulari interests related to ESG.
If I'm not mistaken, a study just came out last week or the week before that showed that the ESG funds,
many of them, are performing under the market.
And one of the big – may have been BlackRock, I'm not sure which one.
but one of the big funds came out and said, yeah, well, I mean, for a while, you are going to make less money, fewer returns on your investment.
But in the long run, it's the right thing to do and it'll pay off.
That's not, you can't do that.
Glenn, I mean, you're exactly right.
You think about the folks sitting at their dinner table who have worked in, here in Kentucky, at least, in state government,
or have served as teachers or firefighters or law enforcement,
you know,
they don't want to hear that their investments,
their pensions might take a hit
because somebody in New York at some asset management firm wants to figure out a way
to include ESG in their financial strategy.
That just is not something that's going to sit well
with folks here in Kentucky. And I dare say, not going to sit well with a lot of your listeners.
I want sound financial investments that are based on the sole responsibility of looking out for the
beneficiary rather than environmental, social, and governance type strategies that, again,
are not specific to making money for the beneficiary.
And it's, you know, another problem with this is people don't understand.
it's because of ESG, we're having these gasoline prices.
We're having the fuel shortages because the ESG investors are taking our state funds.
You know, every union that has the funds, the pension funds, that all is going into investment.
Most of it is going to places like BlackRock, and they won't invest in coal or petrochemicals.
Well, you know, when you run out of money, you run out of gas and fuel.
Yeah, that's right.
I mean, I've talked to a lot of, you know, fossil fuels, natural gas and coal companies that say that on the open market, it's hard for them to find financing.
Right.
And it's because these index funds or these asset managers are using other people's money.
I mean, let's call it what it is.
They are not using their own money.
They're using other people's money.
They're using retirees money.
They're using folks that have been working in state government and state systems.
Again, teachers, law enforcement, they're using their money to make these decisions.
And, you know, your listeners and folks here at home don't necessarily know this.
And so one of the reasons we wanted to issue this opinion and we were asked to issue this
opinion is to put a spotlight on it.
So that, look, this is, whether it's in this context or other comments,
context, the more information people have, the better decisions and informed decisions they can make
in terms of where their money is going, how it's being spent. You're seeing this in so many
different contexts and so many different industries. And that's why I'm obviously honored
to be on with you this morning to talk about this, because I think as patriots, as men and
women who get up and work every day and want to see a better future for themselves and their
children, they don't want their money going to some of these ideas or strategies that are not
aligned with their own values. And so that's also another reason that we decided to issue this
opinion. You stated in this opinion, investment management firms have publicly committed to
coordinating joint action for ESG purposes, such as reducing climate change. For example, the steering
committee at the Glasgow Alliance for Net Zero states, the quote, the systematic change needed to
alter the planet's climate trajectory can only happen if the entire financial system makes ambitious
commitments and operationalizes those commitments with near-term action. Nobody voted for this.
Glad to your point earlier, right? As domestic production of gas and oil goes down,
our prices at the pump are going up. And so the challenge that we are saying is that this
hurting the pocketbooks of the working men and women of this country. And again, we, as you all
often talk about, have got to stand up and be willing to push back against these notions that are
out of line with the majority of the values of the men, women, children across America.
Okay. So what are you doing as Attorney General? You say you were asked to release this.
Who asked you to do that? So our state treasurer, Alison,
asked us because she had concerns as well about.
Good for her.
Yes, absolutely.
How is our process here in Kentucky?
Are we to be single-minded in making sure that the beneficiaries, that their money or the money that they put into the system, that the investments themselves mirror or make sure that those dollars can be.
be maximized as opposed to taking some sort of hit because of these ESG goals.
So she asked us to look into this.
Obviously, as it relates to any single investment, that's a fact-intensive inquiry.
So if we are asked to conduct any sort of investigation, we'd have to take a fine-tooth comb,
if you will, and look through that analysis.
But we wanted to put a marker down.
We wanted to put a flag in the sand to say, this cannot.
be a process that is jeopardized in Kentucky when it comes to making money for our beneficiaries. That
process cannot be jeopardized by these ESG approaches. So the three biggest firms that are involved
have, I mean, trillions of dollars, they most likely have some Kentucky money in it. Are you going
after those? Are you taking those out? Or looking, is she looking at individual firms that are
ESG based? So we wanted to empower our pension boards, if you will, our trustees to have this
information so that they can make wise decisions moving forward on what our investments look like
and to scrutinize those closely and report back to us if there's anything that we need to be
undertaking in terms of investigating any of the actions, the asset managers. Real quick, could you just
talk to other Attorney Generals in other states that may not be pursuing something like this
and to the American people on how important this is, how dangerous this is.
Well, I'll say to my colleagues and other Attorney General across the country, this is a big
issue. This is important to the pocketbooks of the working men and women. Look, I'm a part of a
party, the Republican Party that believes in standing up for the values of the working men and women
and the working class folks all across this country. And I know a lot of my colleagues believe in that.
This is a way to do it, to stand up to these ESG practices that have invaded a lot of
the investment strategies across our financial markets. What I'll say to hear to your listeners
and folks back home, is pay attention to this stuff. Whether it's in the financial context or
in Hollywood or entertainment more broadly, we've got to be careful about where our dollars are going
and what they are funding. So this is a, again, these ESG practices are things that are
investment strategy that is using your money. Let's be clear on that. It's not using
of the leaders of these investment funds.
It's your money that's being used to finance and fund these ESG strategies.
And again, I know that's not aligned with or in alignment with a lot of the values of the folks across our country.
Thank you so much.
I really appreciate you being attentive to this and being a leader out front.
His name is Daniel Cameron.
He is the Kentucky Attorney General.
Daniel, thank you so much.
God bless.
God bless you, Glenn. Thanks.
Tonight on television,
I am doing one of those shows that

Hunter Biden's laptop.

Welcome to the,
welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
There is a new addition to our international
pandemic regulations that come from the WHO. They were meeting last week in Davos, and I wanted to bring
somebody on who has really been following this. Daniel Horowitz, he's a Blaze podcast host,
conservative review, and senior editor for Theblaze.com. Daniel, how are you, sir?
We are doing a right, even in this perilous time. Yeah, boy, I'll tell you,
doing a show tonight, Daniel, on all of the things that are happening. And I don't even think we
touch, we might touch on the WHO and what they're doing. But that's not our main focus.
Everything is being lined up for an emergency. And when that emergency is announced,
you got nothing. There's no freedom anywhere. Can you talk to us about the WHO and what they
did with their new health policy?
Sure, there's actually a lot of positive news and uncanny news as well, in which the East and the West have been mixed up in our lifetime.
So essentially, to go over this, the Biden administration submitted 13 amendments to international health regulations that taken together would serve to cancel out all of the requirements to consult with the host country before declaring a public health emergency in that region.
Hang on just a second.
That wouldn't be, that's when you say the authority, that's, they don't, the WHO would not have to talk to our president or Canada's prime minister or anybody else if they wanted to declare a health emergency in the United States or Canada.
Exactly.
That's crazy.
You see that crossed out in the language of the existing international health regulations by the Biden administration.
If you remember, they did it quietly.
No press release.
No press conference.
It was discovered three months later.
But we had the most unusual results.
Most of my lifetime, I'm used to criticizing the UN and similar organizations because of tin pot,
third world dictators.
And we're like, man, you know, this is run by the third world.
We need to pull out of it.
But here's what's happening now.
We have become the communist.
So it's the United States, Canada, and Australia.
really pushed it. All of the countries we would consider as the Western Democratic nations
pushed for it. But they were ultimately scuttled. Why? Because 47 African nations led by Botswana,
along with India, Brazil, and Russia said, hey, we don't want a part of this. We're concerned
about this. We're concerned about the rush timeline of this. So it was ultimately voted down
because of the third world countries.
But it was emphatically pushed by the Western countries.
That is incredible.
Just incredible.
So how is the West going to get it done anyway?
You know, it's weird.
They just don't take no for an answer.
They just find another way to do it.
I think what we've learned from the last two years is we're not governed by the rule of law.
We're governed by the rule of political will.
and whoever wields it and controls it wins.
Unfortunately, that's where we are.
So it's not a matter of a formal treaty or even some sort of international regulation.
It's funny, the fact checkers were all over saying,
well, the WHO can't force you to do anything.
Well, yeah, that's why I was saying states need to preemptively just say we're not doing it.
But the reason why I drew attention to this is because it demonstrated the intent of the Biden administration.
I'm more concerned about then than the WHO.
So, but you, you were hit by fact check.org.
The Who has no authority to dictate U.S. health policy.
And in fact, because you're the editor-in-chief of the Blaze,
you were hit.
The Blaze was hit by Facebook when they said,
no, this is not true because Sycheck Digi-Jex.
says it's not true.
It's kind of like the Amelia Bedelia books.
I read to my kids.
Right.
And they do this on purpose.
They take this hyper-literalist approach when you raise a political concern.
Hey, why is the Biden administration truncating all the timelines for approval as well as vitiating any requirement to consult with the host nation in order to declare public health emergency?
Well, well, if WHO can't do anything to you anyway.
Well, yeah, I mean, that's why we're saying we need to stand up to that.
But the broader point is that it demonstrates that the Biden administration is not done with this.
They're not done with COVID.
It's not like they're moving on to gun control or other things.
I mean, they might be doing that as well.
But they see this as a permanent great reset.
And they want to codify this permanently.
So whether it's in a WHO regulation or not, this is what they plan to do domestically.
And certainly when you start hearing about monkeypox and the next thing and the pediatric hepatitis pandemic they're talking about, you definitely know that lockdowns, mass, forced therapeutics, they're not done with that.
Yeah, in fact, one of the articles I was reading earlier this morning as I prepared for this interview was the fact that the defenders of this are saying this is not, you know,
This is not some crazy idea.
Let me read part of it.
Global pandemic response had relatively little coordination, little unity.
In fact, it was more like 1983 in 2009's TV miniseries V, where politicians, personalities,
social media accounts, and others seemed like they were actually trying to help the enemy,
in this case, the COVID-19.
That allowed the virus to kill over 6.27 million people and counting.
That's why the World Health Organization,
is discussing the global pandemic treaty at the upcoming 75th World Health Assembly.
Yet, some celebrities, a bunch of social media accounts, have been trying to, guess what,
argue against such a treaty.
Yeah, having no global agreement in place before the next pandemic is going to work out well, right?
So it goes into how screwed up the response was.
And if the WHO would have just had authority to make sure everybody was doing the same thing and the right thing,
how many lives could have been saved.
But we know the Who was incompetent itself.
Well, what's remarkable about all of this is that they never take ownership for the results of their incumbency.
We were not in control, I can tell you that much.
We yelped about it for two years, but no one listened to us.
You had some isolated areas that over time moved away from these policies.
But for the most part, whether it was formally coordinated or not,
which it's hard to tell nearly every corner of the world coalesced around closing schools,
around masking, around mass vaccination, around denying treatment.
It's funny, like you look at the denial of the hydroxy and Ivermectin in America.
I mean, that occurred in almost every corner of the world.
So they got what they wanted, and yet we have six times more cases now,
even though it's kind of off-season in the summer,
than we did this time in late, May, early June of 2021, even though all the vulnerable people have at least three, if not four shots, and it keeps going and going and going.
They never take ownership for their policies.
They act as if no one's vaccinated as if we didn't try all these things, and as if somehow we were in power, we had zero control over that.
So in fact, they actually did this.
I think what they're saying is that they want more like the Shanghai type of response.
Yes.
And that's what they're working on.
So because they say that another pandemic is right around the corner.
It used to be a hundred year pandemic.
Now it's another one is right around the corner.
And we have to have all of these things to be able to control.
Daniel, do you think that this is why the Biden administration is back in court trying to force people
on airplanes to wear masks again?
There's no question.
I think people think that the masks have been repudiated.
And they have been, with the scientific literature,
we're actually seeing evidence of negative correlation with outcomes.
Certainly, obviously, carbon dioxide problems,
and many other language development problems with children are unbelievable.
The U.K.
Right.
Education Department is openly talking about that.
But it hasn't been repudiated.
politically. And I'm seeing even places like Lincoln, Nebraska school districts bringing it back. Some places never got rid of it. You still have disabled people that have to wear it when they go to their numerous medical appointments. So this is not even over with yet. They absolutely want to continue it. And I think it's funny when you look at Justin Trudeau, he announced his new gun control measure this week. They were all standing around.
wearing masks while announcing that.
I think it's a very powerful tool of control and submission.
They absolutely do not want to let go.
And there's very few states so far that have banned them.
A few of them have.
New Hampshire legislature did, but the Rino Governor just vetoed it.
I mean, we have our work cut out for us.
I think too many of us are moving on to the next issue
because unfortunately there are so many issues, but this is not done yet.
The senior editor for the blaze.com and host of the conservative review podcast, Daniel Horowitz.
Daniel, thank you as always.
You know, he wrote about this and he wrote about it accurately.
The one thing about Daniel is he pays a lot of attention to the details and make sure that he gets it exactly right.
And this has hurt our Facebook pages, our social media, because they,
said that he was was lying he's not lying that is what he wrote is absolutely true now they say we're
not going to lose our sovereignty but uh really you you can't speak about things isn't that a loss
of personal sovereignty a loss of freedom of speech don't listen to these people anymore they are
dangerous and they're going to become more dangerous as we get closer and closer to the next real
emergency and that emergency is going to be fuel, any kind of energy, and food.
And it will be here by the fall.

That's why surely you must know, you know, a few people that deserve to be killed.
I remember that video.
It was unsettling.
Yeah, George Bernard Shaw, but he's respected in love, so I'll get in trouble for saying that.
But he, of course, is beloved.
Anyway, people need to keep their stuff.
You need to keep your stuff.
And one of the things, the only thing really that you own is your word, your integrity, and your name.
Well, that's what cyber criminals are after.
All of that, your integrity, your name.
and they get it through your name, your address, your social security numbers, your passwords,
and they're all floating around in the ether someplace online.
And there are places that gather all of them and match them.
And then people like cyber criminals can just buy them and then drain everything from you.
No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses.

Well, we've got a couple of things coming up next hour.
We have Joe Biden on handguns.
He doesn't support a ban on all handguns.
I mean, you get one of those old-timey, you know, cowboy guns.
He's fine with that.
Although, who really needs six bullets?
Seriously.
Well, we know Canada has limited all guns to only having five bullets.
Okay.
So that gets rid of the six shooter.
Yes, that's too much.
Wow, that's too much.
You never need that many bullets, Glenn.
No.
No.
One, really.
So when you're in, you know, the state run prison, you can kill yourself.
Really?
That's the only gun you need.
Yeah, it's only gun you need.
And we have somebody famous from the sports world that, you know, I know.
Have you ever heard of this?
I ever heard.
What?
Yes, of course I've heard of.
You really, have you?
You've heard of Jonathan Isaac.
Yes, very much so, yes.
I know you don't know anything about sports.
But you know about Jonathan Isaac from what he's going to be here to talk about today,
his new book, which is talking about why he stood up against the mob over and over again.
I love him for that, but I mean, you know, is he really in the NBA?
Is he a good player?
Oh, yeah, he's legit.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
He's a really good player.
And I know you don't know literally anything about sports.
No, nothing.
Nothing.
But NBA, that's the one with a little white ball that, uh, no?
Well, that's
That's hockey.
Yeah, anyway.
You're right.
You're right. That's hockey.
Yeah.
Jonathan Isaac is, well, it is a little white ball, okay?
Because I don't use black pucks because I'm not racist.
I'm not having a bunch of white Russians skate around, you know, hitting something black
and make it slam into a wall.
No, sir.
No, not me.
That's you, racist.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
So Michael Sussman was acquitted yesterday.
What a surprise.
I mean, you know, you had two donors to Clinton on the jury.
I think you had a Bernie Sanders person.
The judge's wife was friends with the two lovebirds that were texting, sexting one another.
That was great.
I mean, what could have gone wrong there?
But what does that mean?
Does it?
I mean, because it was clear what happened,
and it was clear that the media was involved,
and Hillary Clinton herself was involved.
So is this the end of the Durham investigation?
Is this all we got?
We go to somebody who has been following this
and knows the answers to that question
and many others.
Sean Davis from the Federalist in 60 seconds.
So Jamie wrote in about our experience with the relief factory.
She said my husband and I both started using Relief Factor, and we were pleasantly surprised
at the results.
We had minor aches and pains.
I had problems with my knee that just wasn't improving, and after about two weeks of
taking Relief Factor, we began to see wonderful reductions in pain.
I...
She writes my knee is no longer in stabbing pain all the time.
We won't go without it.
It's Relief Factor.
Please just try it, see if it works for you.
Three-week quick start, developed for you, 1995.
It's a dollar a day.
It's a trial pack.
Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor.
About 70% of them go on to order more.
It's Relieffactor.com or call 1-800 for relief, 1-800-4 relief.
Or get the 1995, three-week quick start developed just for you.
Relieffactor.com or call 800 the number for relief.
Relief Factor.
feel the difference.
Sean Davis
from the Federalist,
the CEO and co-founder
is joining us now.
Sean, I saw this and I wasn't
surprised by the acquittal just because
of the jury, but I don't
really know exactly what
does that mean? I mean,
it implicated Clinton
and the media,
but are we done now?
Well, I think we're probably done
with running K.
in the District of Columbia where the jury clearly did nullification, which is they basically
don't even listen to the facts. They decided coming in. They didn't like the case. And that was going to be
it. So I think if you actually want convictions, that case has to be the end of bringing
indictments into D.C. because it's similar to what you see in elections in North Korea or Iraq
with a dictator gets 99% of the vote. It's obscene. And it was weird. I mean, you
had one juror come out and say, so what if he lied to the FBI?
Everybody does it.
There are bigger crimes.
Then lying to the FBI, really?
When you're talking about the future of our country and corruption and trying to take out a seated president, really?
I mean, compare that to the Michael Flynn trial.
Recall that Michael Flynn was completely set up.
that his name was leaked in order to destroy him, the Trump administration, early on in the presidency.
And when evidence came out that he was completely set up, that he didn't lie, and that the DOJ and the prosecutors themselves said,
there's no case here, a corrupt judge in the D.C. district court said, no, actually, I'm not going to let you pull these charges.
So compare that to what just happened with this DNC lawyer. And it tells you everything you need to know about the so-called justice system when it comes to,
political people in D.C. It doesn't exist. I mean, I really didn't think it would even make it to court.
I didn't even think about the court being so screwed up. You know, I didn't think about the D.C.
court. And it's, I mean, that's just, that was just a blow. I knew it was coming because, you know,
once I saw the jury selection, I was, there's, there's no way this is going to go anywhere. Now,
tell me what it means going forward.
anything going forward oh absolutely i think we learned so much from how durham prosecuted this
we learned for example that hillary greenlit that entire completely bogus alpha bank hoax
against trump during the 2016 election um we learned a lot of additional information in there and
i think just reading the tea leaves and of course i could be wrong durham is building a much
much bigger case and i think the whole alpha bank thing
with Sussman lying about it,
show just how completely corrupt the FBI
and the media are.
They were working together.
They were sharing information.
They were seating things with each other
to do this sort of circular confirmation thing.
I think we're going to get a lot more
about how the entire Russiagate investigation
launched by the FBI against Trump in 2016
was itself a hoax from the beginning.
From the beginning.
So I expect that Durham will unravel
that, but we'll see. Okay, so, you know, my speculation was at the very beginning that he was hoping
that Sussman would turn and he could get the things that he needed from him as he would turn on,
you know, the Clinton campaign. He didn't turn, but he did, I mean, he gave all that information
in the end anyway. It all came out in the end. So was this originally just a, a foundation laying
case and a search for the truth that Sussman couldn't get out of people in his investigation?
Because we actually, or not we, Durham was able to get access to a whole bunch of emails he didn't
have previously that that the DNC and Hillary campaign and Fusion GPS were all pretending were
privileged communications with their attorneys. Durham was able to significantly pierce that during
the trial. And to me, kind of the foundation goes back to when that, Infector general reporting,
came out from the Department of Justice IG.
And in that report, the IG said, oh, there's no evidence the Russia thing was political
and it was legally predicated.
And on that day, Durham himself came out and issued a statement that he, based on his review
of the evidence, didn't think that was true.
We've not really heard anything about that since that day.
I think at the end of 2019, and I believe that is where we're going to end up.
We are going to find out what exactly start.
started this bogus investigation.
So, so do you know yet, as Durham telegraphed at all, what comes next?
Well, we have, he hasn't telegraphed it.
We have another indictment sitting out of Igor Danchenko, who is the so-called primary
subsource for all of the nonsense collies peddled by Christopher Steele and his dossier against
Trump.
This guy is a, a Russian national living in the U.S., used to,
work at Brookings, Shocker, who had peddled all sorts of nonsense, including that infamous
videotape that didn't exist of Trump and a hotel in Moscow. So that trial's still upcoming,
and that trial is being held in Virginia. So I think that'll be a different, that'll play out
differently than the D.C. case against Sussman. Yeah, I mean, if you, if you've been watching what's
happening in the Northern Virginia School District, I'm not sure it's that different, but, you know,
Maybe this time will be different.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate you watching this.
If you had to pull one thing that everybody should get out of this, it is?
That if people at the FBI don't go to prison for this, the rule of law in this country is dead.
I hate to say, I agree with you.
Thank you so much, Sean.
I appreciate it.
Sean Davis, CEO and co-founder, you bet, of the Federalist.
I mean, that was the gut punch yesterday.
I expected it to happen, but that was the real gut punch.
And then it was followed by the juror that said, you know, what's the big deal lying to the FBI?
What's the big deal?
I mean, first in the 90s, it was, you know, so he lied about sex.
He's married.
It's no big deal.
Okay, well, you don't lie to the FBI.
B. I don't lie under oath, but it was just about sex. It was nothing important.
This is about taking down the president of the United States. This is about using the full
force and image of the Justice Department and everything else to stand against and mount a campaign
against a sitting president. That's not just about having sex. But now the same group of people
with the Clintons involved again.
Eh, lying doesn't really matter.
It doesn't seem to matter.
Other than that, though, what's gone on here?
It doesn't seem like that big of a deal when you explain it that way.
It's just about taking down a president.
Yeah, that's it.
And look, we all know that there are all sorts of, you know,
of awful things that happen in the backgrounds of campaigns, right?
I mean, we all know that people leak information.
They do opposition research.
they
This is a reality
office because someone tried to hack in
at the time it was physical
because you couldn't hack in
tried to get information
from the Democratic
office in Washington D.C.
There was nothing of value there.
Yeah.
But Nixon,
and then they didn't continue
to spy and any of that stuff.
He left office
because he was going to be impeached for doing that.
You can't even get a low-level attorney in trouble for lying to the FBI about a bogus thing that just didn't happen just before the election.
It ran during his presidency.
His presidency.
They didn't stop.
The Nixon thing was another time, right?
And one, I think, I mean, you've told the story many times of your dad, right?
Yeah.
around the Nixon time saying it changed everything.
And maybe it was part of the thing that got the ball rolling on this in the wrong direction.
Well, in the wrong direction, it did because that's why everybody went to journalism school.
All the people who are at the head now, they all went to journalism school because they saw that two reporters could topple a president.
And they learned the wrong lesson.
They now think that they can topple any president because they don't like him.
And like I, as I was saying, we all know terrible people are involved in these campaigns all the time.
There are people that are, you know, some of them are fine.
Most, a lot of them are terrible.
It's just a terrible industry.
It's created with people who, who want to just destroy others.
Like literally their job is to destroy the lives of other people as you go through these campaigns.
And many of the strategists are on this.
And that's part of the reason why.
like I'm less, I don't know, activated, interested, riveted by what happens to the Clintons themselves,
as I am to what the media did with all this information and how they handled it.
I mean, they took this information from them.
They told us it was true.
They also tried to destroy a president and many, many people's lives, including low-level underlings of Trump.
We've talked to several of them.
and there has never been a moment where they said,
holy crap, we got that one wrong.
Hey, wow, we thought Donald Trump was really bad.
Therefore, we jumped the gun on this.
We believed all the bad stuff.
And that's our fault.
And here's what we're going to do in the future to correct it.
Yeah, no, they don't think they made a mistake.
No, you know, it's not one family or one group of shady campaign operatives.
And I never thought the Clintons are going to die rich and unhappy.
And that's enough for me.
they are they're never going to go to jail anybody thinks they are you're sadly mistaken they're
never going to go to jail i didn't expect that but the fact that the fbi gets away with it
and uh the media gets away with it in collusion with the clinton's is insane that what have you
taught uh attorneys what have you taught campaigns as long as you're on the right side of the
FBI. They'll help you. That's not good. Not good. All right. Real estate agents, I trust,
if you've noticed that when you do the job right the first time, you don't have the hassle of
doing it over and over again. You know what I mean? Comes to buying and selling homes,
especially in the current market. True or words have never been spoken. That's why you need the
top of the line when it comes to a real estate agent. Number years ago, I formed a country,
country, I wish, a company called Real Estate Agents I Trust, and it exists as a free service to you.
They know the best practices.
They're the best real estate agent, in our opinion, in your area, somebody who understands the crazy housing market, someone who's a team leader and a closer.
So if you're thinking about buying or selling a house, maybe you're selling a house and moving across the street or across the country, we have agents that you need to talk to.
Real estate agents.
I trust.com.
It's a free service to you.
The name says it all.
Real estate agents.
I trust.
Dot com.
Go there now.
10 seconds, station ID.
Okay, so the White House yesterday made it very clear that the president has no intention of banning all handguns.
Oh.
Okay.
Well, that's good.
Right?
And they're having meetings now with.
some of the tippity top Republicans who I trust to come up with some common sense
handgun controls and controls.
And what they've come up with are eight names of eight acts.
They want to, and they're all good.
They raise the Ajax.
Oh my gosh.
That's great.
Prevent the Gun Trafficking Act.
The Untraceable Firearms Act.
Oh!
The Ethan's Law.
Ethan's Law.
The Safe Gun Safe Kids Act.
I like Safe Kids.
Do you like Kimberly Vaughn?
Because she has a firearm safe storage act.
Yes, I sure do.
We're going to close the Bumpstock loophole act.
Yes, wait.
And this one is...
The loophole is a good one word for that because you can do...
You can fire like a Bumstock with your belt loop.
Oh, I like that.
That's why I was just getting so excited and patriotic about the Keep American Safe Act.
Oh, thank goodness.
We have all of those.
Wonderful.
And it's going to help us out a lot.
Now, there was...
I will say, I'll tell you a little conversation I had recently with a friend who is
conservative.
Yeah.
A conservative who is not a big gun person.
Yeah.
And, you know, and follows the news, but is not like listening to every single broadcast
and following the details.
And as they went through there, like, oh, Biden sucks.
and all this gun stuff they want to do is crazy.
I mean, why don't they just raise the age to 21?
And why don't they just, you know...
I love that one.
Why don't they just have mental health checks on everybody
when you're buying a gun?
I'd be fine with it.
I go back in every six months and have one if they need to do.
Oh, you go back in to have a mental health check every six months.
And the reason why I bring the conversation up
is because a lot of this stuff,
if you're not in the Second Amendment argument every day,
It never affects you.
Yes.
And if it doesn't affect you, which, by the way, it doesn't affect most people.
Most people do not own firearms.
May I come up with some common sense gun laws that I think, common sense?
So is, I don't know what an adult is anymore.
You're an adult at 26, according to the insurance companies.
Right.
You're an adult, according to the rental car companies, at 25.
Right.
According to the bar, you're 21.
If you want to vote or fight for your country, you're an adult at 18.
So you can have the AR-15 then, but not.
And you can be firing it on a battlefield while being shot at and vote at the same time.
So that's great.
That is great.
Now, to vote, you don't need an ID.
You can register the day of.
It's no problem.
But if I go into a gas station and I try to buy a beer,
at a gas station and I look 18 or 20,
they have to ask you for an ID.
They must or they will get fined and in trouble.
But the ID, you know, voter ID, please, we don't need it for that.
That's racist to ask for that.
So you need an ID for drinking at a gas station,
but you don't need one for voting.
you definitely need more than an ID to buy a gun.
And then I would like to ask if you're serious, okay, you want to raise it to 21?
Great. Voting 21.
Military.
They can't go in at 18.
Got to be 21.
If you're old enough to shoot and kill in a war, you're certainly old enough to carry a gun.
Yeah.
Yes.
And by the way, if Hollywood really cared because.
I see that every time I watch a show, it will tell me sex.
And my favorite, smoking.
Kids, we can't watch this.
They're smoking on the screen.
Smoking.
I love that one.
That's my favorite when it comes up.
Smoking, I think, really?
That?
You're concerned about smoking.
Of course.
We have to have people stop watching movies because people are smoking and that will encourage other people to smoke.
Hollywood, I will take you seriously.
on guns
when you
ban the use of all guns
in all of your movies
Hollywood
should ban guns
in the fictional world
before it happens here
go ahead Hollywood
why won't you do it you ban smoking
that kills people
you say this is the worst plague of all time
guns America's out of control with that
The rest of the world agrees with that.
Good.
Then ban all guns.
All guns.
No guns in any of your movies.
Not even with the police.
Because I could grow up watching that and thinking,
wow, that gun is really cool.
And I, you know, I don't care if it's a police officer.
I want one of them things.
And I'm going to get it.
And I'm going to smoke at the same time.
Go ahead, Hollywood.
You first.
ban your rubber guns before you come for mine.
I mean, the least you could do is do it with Alec Baldwin.

Finally, a sports figure, both stood.
and I can agree on.
From the Orlando Magic, we have Jonathan Isaac.
A great player, Stu knows everything about him.
I have no idea.
But I do know, I know you because you are the guy who took two stands when it was
really not in your best interest to do so.
So welcome.
I'm glad you're here.
Glenn, thank you so much for having me, Stu.
I'm excited to talk with you guys.
Thank you.
So you've just put out the book, Why I Stand.
and take me through the first stand, which was the flag, right?
Yes, sir.
Everybody was kneeling, taking a knee for the flag, and you refused to do it.
Yeah, so there's a lot of backstory and a lot of details that the book offers.
So if you want to get all of it, you got to go get why I stand.
But for me, when what happened to George Floyd was obviously tragic and it was obviously terrible.
But what I tried my best to do was take a step back and think,
what is the best way for me to respond in this moment?
And looking out, I'm thinking to myself,
man, the world needs healing.
And to me, healing is not going to come through a movement.
It's not going to come through an organization, a party, anything like that.
When I looked at my own life, I said, man, my life has been supported, changed, and healed
by the gospel of Jesus Christ, the love of Jesus Christ.
And I was saying, man, this is the message that I want to push and this is the message
that I want to share in this moment.
And so when I thought about healing, I know that racism and all the things that plague our
society are heart issues and their ultimately spiritual issues.
And I said to myself, you know what, I can't think of a better message or an adult for these times other than that message.
So I decided to share it.
The one thing I love in your book, you talk about how you didn't feel, you kind of felt like a fraud.
And it wasn't until you found a relationship with God that you realized, no, no, no, I have everything I need to be able to succeed and to thrive, right?
Yes, sir, absolutely.
I grew up Christian.
So my parents always had me in the church like every single day.
But as I begin to grow up and just kind of want what the world has to offer and went after it and all the things like that.
But I have this great like coming to God moment in the book and stories full of details and just God orchestrating my footsteps and ultimately me coming to understand that God loves me for me.
I don't have to work for it.
I don't have to strive for it.
I don't have to make a basket in order to experience his love.
It changes everything, doesn't it?
Yes, sir.
I mean, I was so related to this section of the book because.
that's the way I was.
And I was very formulaic when I was, I knew what the right thing to do was, you know, to be able to advance a career and everything else.
And it was just, I was just miserable because it wasn't real.
And I was just covering for all the things that I thought I was deficient in, you know.
And when you, for me, I had to have a bad break.
but when you have that God moment and you surrender, oh my gosh, it's crazy great.
Yes, sir.
And to your point about having that like bad break, like I was injured at the time.
And so it's like God uses those moments to kind of get our attention.
And in that he revealed himself to me.
And I'm like, man, like this is great.
And I've been on this journey of just growing in relationship with them.
And ultimately to go from a young boy who struggle with anxiety, struggle with fear, self-insurity to a man.
that was willing to stand up for what he believes in in these moments and display a form of courage
that I hope that everyone can take from the book and internalize and ultimately do the same.
And it is, it's only because, you know, I think that the, what God does for people, a belief in God,
is give you the confidence that you need, and not an arrogant confidence, but give you the confidence
to be able to go in on the basketball court and know, I got this.
You know, go anywhere.
I got this and then go into the lion's den and say, yeah, okay, I'm not going to kneel.
I'm not going to wear the, you know, the Black Lives Matter jersey either.
Yes, sir.
And to your point about what God does, what I was, the message that I was trying to get across in the moment is when you have these times like George Floyd or any tragedy or anything like that, what's so easy for us to do is immediately take the role of the judge and say this person is awful.
they did this, throw them away, they're terrible.
But what I have seen in my own life is when I was able to look at my own sin, my own
shortcomings, my own failures, I was able to sympathize with people who go through the same thing.
And what the gospel does is it puts everybody on the same playing field.
Right.
And it says we're all in need.
Yes.
Justice.
It is real equity.
You know what I mean?
It's we are, when we come here, we are all equalized.
Right.
You know, in our own way.
Yes, sir.
in need of a savior.
And so it's pretty much saying,
like, we need to stand up for what we believe in
because at the end of the day,
I didn't kneel and I didn't wear the T-shirt.
We need to do those things,
but at the same time, we do it in love,
and we render to people
what we would have them render to us.
And ultimately, the way God handles us
is the right way to handle people.
So what was the result from your teammates?
Yeah, it was, so first off,
it was a very emotional time.
There were guys on my team
who were extremely charged
about the BLM movement
and being all in. And so we had a heated conversation afterwards. We had a team only meeting,
just the players, and certain guys felt away about it and were upset about the stand that I took.
And we were able to have a conversation and almost leave it at, look, you guys believed in what
you were kneeling for. But I believe in what I'm standing for, too. And I respect you guys'
decisions to kneel. But I expect that same respect and return. Have those wounds healed with
everybody on the team? Well, I think as time has gone on, everyone has been able to kind of breathe a little
bit and see kind of the landscape for what it was and to see the way that the organization
or people were moving in that time. It was very angry. It was very vitriol, but have been able to
take a step back and kind of see some of the things that are going on. And then you took another
controversial stand. You wouldn't take the COVID vaccine. No, I didn't. And that for me was
kind of the same trail where it was like, you know what, I need to take a step back, see what's going
on because this thing is being forced. You know, people are losing their jobs. People are medical and
religious exemptions are being denied, this feels fishy to me. And then we get to the point where
the Rolling Stone article drops and they say that I came to my decision by watching Donald Trump
press conferences and studying Black history. And that was when I was like, you know what, on
principle, even they're not saying that the vaccine is terrible and everybody's going to die if they
take it, but on principle, this thing hasn't been gone about the right way. And so I decided
not to take it and just be a voice for people who. I think they would have actually had more people
get the vaccine if they hadn't have been so creepy about it.
I'd absolutely agree.
Yeah, I'd absolutely.
I mean, it's just, it was just creeped a lot of people out.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I agree with that.
And at the end of the day, it's just, when you're coming across something like that
and you're studying exactly what COVID is and everything that they're saying, it should
have just been a choice.
It should have just been a choice.
And, you know, one of the questions that I got was, you know, you took vaccines when
you were younger.
But I was like, at the end of day, that was my mother's choice to give it to me.
And she wasn't forced to do it.
And so I think just the way that, you know,
it was forced, the way that it was pushed.
And even throughout the season, I was the only one who didn't get vaccinated.
And I didn't get COVID so many guys on the team who are vaccinated.
So many people who had the COVID vaccine, you know, episode one through seven, are getting the, you know, are getting COVID over and over and over again.
I don't know what the stats are.
At the bottom line, though, is, as you point out, it should be your choice.
If you want to get it, you get it.
If you don't kind of get it, you shouldn't want to get it.
the religious exemption thing is a really important part of this that you mentioned.
I mean, if you believe that this is not for you, who's the NBA?
Who is the government to tell you that you have to take it?
Right.
And that's the principle that I was talking about, about just like not saying that the vaccine is some awful thing, but, you know, obviously some people have had adverse reactions to it.
I'm young, I'm healthy.
I've already had COVID in the past.
I have natural immunity.
I don't see the wisdom in putting this into my body and still being able to get the virus and transmitted anyway.
And so, but just for the principle of the people who were struggling in that time, the people who went from essential workers to, you know, being able to be excluded, I was like, you know, just on principle, I don't think this is right for me.
So the name of the book is why I stand by Jonathan Isaac. It is a tremendous book. How is it doing?
It's doing fantastic. So we became a national bestseller this week. And again, they tell me that you're the guy and you're going to be going to continue. I'm the guy. You are. You're the guy to push this thing.
Well, I will tell you that it is exceptional. And you're not.
number one on Christian, number one in sports.
So this week, so when we first dropped, we were number one in Christian, number one in political books, number one in basketball biographies.
And I think we got as high as 15 overall books.
But I think after this interview, we're going to get to one in overall books.
Well, that would be, I mean, I can't do that for my book in the New York Times.
I can do it on all other lists, but not the New York Times, so don't count on it.
But the name of the book is why I stand.
And it is truly an inspirational book.
It is, I mean, there is a real shortage of two things, and they are correlated.
People who actually believe in God and the power of God.
I'm not saying that, yeah, I believe in God.
No, no.
You actually believe in God.
And the other is we have a lack of people who actually have courage.
And those two go hand.
in hand. You cannot break those two apart. You'll have courage because you believe in God. And this book
does a great job of explaining in just a story form of your own life. Right. And to the point about
that, it's like what I do really love about the book is that it's not a fairy tale. It's not like
this guy is just the most courageous guy in the world and he has such great belief and he just did
this amazing thing. And it's not something that people can strive toward. There are moments in the book
where again, I talk about my early childhood about how much I struggled with anxiety and how
developing a relationship with Christ has been the thing and the people that were around me in
that time to help me get through that. I mean, ultimately get me to be able to stand in the first place.
So it's something that people can draw off of. People can see themselves in the story.
People can be encouraged and inspired that they can do the same because it's the same thing that I went
through. And you had to have a conversation with your wife at some point going,
honey, this is hundreds of millions of dollars that are at stake, right?
Well, she wasn't my wife at the time. She was my fiancee.
But the night before- Did she encourage you to take stand?
Yes. So the- You married the right woman.
I did. So the night before I stood, I was on the phone with my pastor. He was my first
called him. My fiance was my second. I called him and we're talking about, you know,
you don't understand how big this is going to be. Like, I'm going to be a coon. I'm going to be an
Uncle Tom. I hadn't signed my contract yet. And so that was still up in the air. So that could have been
that could have been destroyed. But he said, you cannot stand for God and God not stand for you.
And so we went with it. And the same thing I said to my wife, she was like, you're standing alone in there,
but you're not standing alone because I'm standing with you. And so there are many people who have
been encouraged by it, many Christians who are standing. And many people who just believe the message
that ultimately the love of God is what heals. And being able to show the love of God in these
moment, still standing for what you believe in, but rendering unto others the way that you would
want to be, you would, you would want it. So if you did something that was wrong and it was caught on
tape, you would want mercy, you would want forgiveness, you would want people to handle you in a certain
way. So we have to be the ones that understand from a Christian perspective and want to show that same
love and grace to other people. You get it. You're fantastic. To go fia. And I'm not just saying that
because you just signed an $80 million contract. And I'm like a loan, but his name is Jonathan
Isaac. He is with the Orlando
Magic. Why I Stand. It's tremendous. Buy it.

What an incredibly nice guy.
Really normal.
Down to earth.
Enormous hands.
We're talking about Jonathan Isaac, who is just in from NBA Orlando Magic.
And he just put a book out Why I Stand.
And I'm telling you, you're going to love the book.
You'll just love the book.
It was funny because when that happened, it was a big story.
and I don't think people really understood
what an impossible stand that was.
He hadn't signed his contract.
That's a big part of it.
And he was hurt.
Yeah.
So like, you know, they had an excuse to be like,
we don't know.
He's been on the bench now for,
do you call it a bench and...
He's been injured.
Yeah.
Injured for the last two years.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't treat me like I'm an imbecile.
I do know things like injured in bench and stuff.
Good.
I'd like to ask him,
I'm going to, because I'm going to see him out in the hall,
wait a minute. I really want to ask him, why do any of you guys, you're so good at basketball,
why do any of you miss the foul shot? You know where it is. You're right. Right? Isn't that what
you call it? No, that's good. No, you're doing a really good job analyzing this situation. You should
continue. Because you're doing great. All right. People, I saw somebody mentioned this the other day and I
went, yeah. Yeah, that's right. They are, they're standing at the top of the key every time.
All you have to do is shoot it in the bat. It's not like, hey, this time, you know, you have to be over here.
How do you not get that shot every time? Yeah, no, it's an amazing analysis. Right. I think people who
are really into sports, you might be too deep for the, for the average audience member right now.
Have you ever heard, have you ever heard anybody on sports radio or ESPN? Has that?
thousands of hours of sports radio.
And never, never, never, never, never, has anyone broken it down quite like that?
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
You, you've got a special talent.
Thank you.
Would you consider a separate podcast about sports every week?
No, I wouldn't.
Because I would, I will say I would listen to that.
Oh, yes, I would.
We should do one.
We should just do one episode just on sports.
We'll watch it together.
We'll do the play-by-play.
You'll take some notes.
Yeah.
And we can go and just discuss your observations of the game of hand.
This next Super Bowl, well, you're always gone in Super Bowl.
Sorry.
I forget he's white and has all that privilege.
Sorry, Mr. I go to the Super Bowl every year.
We can do the championship games.
It'll be fun.
All right.
We'll do it.
We'll do it.
All right.
We'll see you tonight, 9 p.m.
This is the Glenn Back program.
