The Glenn Beck Program - Chaos Everywhere: We Are the World’s Income | Guest: Jack Fairweather | 8/29/19

Episode Date: August 29, 2019

AOC claims that older generations NEVER stood up to the government as much as the new one, but may we mention Restoring Honor, the 912 march, and Restoring Unity, all with anniversaries this week? The world is falling into chaos, from Britain’s constant surveillance to Gillibrand’s 2020 campaign to Apple’s Siri recordings and even Darwinism. The world is looking to us for stability yet again, because our economy still WORKS. But capitalism is crumbling before our eyes, while all the popular examples of “European socialism” are coming to us for help! Jack Fairweather, author of “The Volunteer,” joins to discuss the amazing untold story of a man who volunteered to go to Auschwitz in order to tell the world all the horrors he saw.

Our sponsor here for Spotlight is Overcomer. I was happening to go through a box office mojo, which is I like to do that on Mondays. And you check through, hey, who was the big movie of the weekend? Number three movie in America right now is Overcomer. Very cool. And by theater per screen, it's number two in America. This is a story from the Kendrick brothers who have all, you know, they've been doing great faith movies for a long time. In 2015, they had more room, which was a huge hit as well.

This is a story about John Harrison, a guy who lives in a community that is kind of being destroyed because there is a big factory in town and it closes down. Everybody moves out of town. There's chances at a state championship at basketball, go down the tubes. And Harrison is, you know, forced to coach the cross-country team, which is not something he's interested in or knows anything about. And it only has one student who's actually on the team. So this is not a powerhouse exactly, but the movie is and it gives you all sorts of faith and humor and inspiration. And it's about the idea of one person actually making a difference, something that in the increasing throes of collectivism

is a novel concept apparently in America. Overcomermovie.com, go there, see the trailer right now. Overcomermovie.com. Radio show here starts in just a second. You know what I really love. Now, it might sound like I actually hate this, but I don't. You know what I really love is when AOC lectures us about how great her generation is,

And how the older generation just really hasn't, you know, they're not willing to stand up. And she doesn't mean to, you know, condemn or make anybody feel bad. But her generation really gets it because her generation understands what it takes to be a democracy. We begin there right now. This is the Glenn Beck program Somewhere in America Within the sound of my voice There is a man

Walking out to his car Behind him stands the factory Where he has worked for the last three decades Its ramparts scraping the sky Its foundry noises Blending in with one another Used to be that he didn't park so close Used to be that he wasn't the manager

But time and hard work The bricks that built the road to his frontier with the company, has paid off. And although he wears the suit and tie now, one thing still anchors him to the place in his heart where he came from. And that's his pair of Tachovas boots. You know, Tachovas boots are made from the most exotic letters available, and they're handcrafted by world-class bootmakers.

It takes 200 steps to manufacture a pair of Tukovas boots, and yet their boots cost about half of what a similar boot would cost you in the store. Check out their selection of boots. All the other fine leather and clothing products that they make. It's really a great company. Find your pair. Walk your walk at Tocobos.com slash Beck. That's TECOVAS.com slash back. Tacobus, it's Westernware for your frontier. Could we start, please, with the AOC video that she just made and released to all of her, to all of her followers, and I mean that word exactly as it sounds,

all of her followers on social media. They're not afraid to have those conversations. If anything, like, I think they're profoundly courageous because they're willing to puncture taboos and have conversations that, frankly, older generations sometimes struggle to have. Not everyone. I don't want to paint everybody with a broad brush. I'm feeling like this is into safety.

But I think this new generation is connection. Okay. I think this. But anyways, I think this new generation is very profound and very strong and very brave because they're actually willing to go to the streets. How about that? How about that? Previous generations have just assumed that, you know, government's got it. Let me tell you something.

You are the government. Like, as a democracy, we the people need you. Like, as a democracy. You are as a go, as a voter. You are the government, too. Oh, as an older person, I didn't get that. I've always, A, thought that we weren't a democracy. We are a republic.

Oh, that drives me out of my mind. What have older generations ever done, though, Glenn, to defend freedom. I know, I know. I know. We did nothing. Nothing. We did nothing. And you know what?

They're willing to have those tough conversations in their safe space. As they tell everybody, we can't say this word or that. They're courageous. They're willing to have those conversations. No, they're not. They cry. You're hurting my feelings. You're making somebody uncomfortable.

Oh, my gosh, she drives me nuts. Okay, you know, I don't expect her to really understand this because she's a bartender that didn't pay attention at all to anything until she won a game show to become the candidate. So let me just explain a couple of things, not to her, because I don't care about her. I just saw that on the Blaze News and I just couldn't take it. But now that's out of my system. Let me just tell you a couple of things. This week is the ninth anniversary of restoring honor.

You know, Restoring Honor, where we had over 500,000 people March to Washington. Washington. You know that one. Older generation, they don't get it. They're not willing to stand up to their government. Oh, by the way, this September, I think, is the 10th anniversary of the March on Washington on 9-12. Gee, what was 9-12? 9-12. 9-12. Oh, oh, that's September 12. Oh, that's because that's because this audience talked about how September 12th we all stood together bravely, both Republicans and Democrats, in this democracy. And we stood up and we held hands and we prayed together because we weren't going to be bowing to fear after somebody took our World Trade Center down. That's what that was. And then when the government got out of control and was just taxing us to death and telling us they wanted socialism, about a million people took to the streets.

But I wouldn't expect to know this, you to know this AOC, because, you know, what were you? Eight when that happened? By the way, this week also marks the fourth anniversary of our restoring unity rally in Birmingham. and, you know, in case AOC just happens to, you know, care at all. That was the largest, not according to me, but according to the city of Birmingham, the largest civil rights march since Martin Luther King. Remember that one? Yeah.

Yeah. Anyway, that kicked off the Nazarene Fund, and I want to give you a quick update on that. The Nazarene Fund has helped 53,000 people this year. year alone. Fifty-three thousand people. Now we're into some good things and some really dicey things. Yesterday, there's a 12-year-old, 12-year-old Zanal. He was a five-year-year-old ISIS slave. Imagine 12. Almost half his life was lived as a slave. He was wounded in the battle of, I guess it's Bohus in Syria. Yesterday, he finally got some life-saving surgery,

and we're going to put some pictures up, and I'll tweet him out and Facebook them and put them on glenbeck.com. But he needed some surgery, and because of you, if you're a Nazarene Fund donor, he is going to live, and we're grateful. He is very grateful for you. This week also, the Nazarene Fund is providing finding transportation, security, food, and water to volunteers.

We, you know, we don't even think about this part of it, but the Sinjar massacre. ISIS buried people in a mass grave, and so we are now helping them dig those mass graves up and identify their loved ones and then put them in a decent grave. and mark that we're identifying people with DNA testing and they'll be buried with honor and reverence and in the name of God not a false God also Christians in Iraq and Syria

still having a difficult time with both the remnants of ISIS and now we got a new one we have Iran because Iran is backing the militias and they are occupying now the 2000-year-old Christian lands So most people are not returning to their lands. We're still moving people out of the area because it is not safe for them. Please, if you want to be involved in this, I mean, you know, maybe not because you're probably, you know, you're probably not from AOC's generation. So you're probably not brave.

You don't know how to stand up. You don't know how to do anything. Can you lick a stamp and put a check in the mail, Grandpa? because I'm sure you don't know how to use the internet. But let me just, if you want to help out, you want to be a part of it, maybe you could get somebody like AOC to teach you how to turn on your computer and go to www. dot. Now that's DOT. That's not, that's a, it's a period, not DOT. WWW, period. We call it a dot.

The Nazarene Fund. Dot, that's a period again. org as in organization but you don't have to say at all okay you just oh r g by the way next year is the uh 10th anniversary of restoring honor and i have uh before i before i came uh here i'm at my ranch this week and uh before i came up here i had some meetings with some uh some amazing amazing people and met with 10 or 12 people I've led into this circle this week. We are going to be announcing hopefully soon another restoring event. This one I think is going to be the most important. Everyone I have brought into the circle has kind of said,

oh, you're going to do another restoring event? And then I tell them what it is, and all of them have responded, oh, I'm in, I'm in. So please keep your calendar open at least for the next month or so before we announce what that will be and where it will be. But we're going to announce it sooner rather than later because it has great significance. That's coming next year. All right. I want to talk to you a little bit about chaos today. And I want to show you where the chaos is coming from. We're going to talk a little bit about the political race here in America, a little bit about what's happening in Brexit, and then also our new slave masters, Apple and Google and Facebook. What Apple led out of the bag yesterday? Yes, it's a cat. Cat should never be let out of bags. It wasn't an actual cat? Okay, all right.

I guess that's just a phrase. But anyway, they let something slip, and it should disturb every single American. Will it? Nah, nah. But you'll know about it, and you'll know what to do about it in 60 seconds. Today is our last in the series on the economy in hour number two.

Today is a really good one. Today you're going to, today I was going over the model. and Rob, who is our engineer this week, I told him some facts in it, and he said, what? It's, you do not want to miss next hour. It's astonishing what we're going to talk about today on the economy. And today is what the truth is and what we need to do. All right, American financing. As I talk about the economy, I can't stress enough. It is, time for you to batten down the hatches. A storm is on the horizon. It's like Florida, what you're

doing right now, you need to do that to your finances as well. You need to make sure that you lower your debt as much as possible, that you have some cash on hand, maybe some gold as well. But the biggest thing you can do is get out of those big credit card interest rates. They're charging 18%. That's insanity. 18%. And that number is only going to go up. When we have a real financial breakdown, that number is going to go through the roof. If you are in an adjustable mortgage, get out of that. If you have anything over a three or a four percent mortgage, You might want to consider refinancing. American financing, I'm putting my money where my mouth is.

I'm doing this as well with American financing as we speak. Americanfinancing.net. It's Americanfinancing.com. Call 800906 2440. I trust these people. I trust these people enough to do it for me. 800906 2440. American financing.

Not net. American Financing Corporation, NMLS-182334. www. nmLS consumer access.org. We pause for 10 seconds, station ID. So, yesterday, Boris Johnson, went to the queen and said, Queenie, baby. I'm wondering if we could suspend Parliament for a few weeks. And she said, oh, I don't know, Boris.

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me. And so then there was a lot of mhm-m-m-h. And she said, okay, yes, I have. prove and everybody's making a big deal out of this saying it's unprecedented it's it's it's a it's a it's a it's a it's a it's a it's a it's a it's a coo no it's not they do this i don't know what was this thing called it's uh preroging peroging they do this several times a year and it's what it means is parliament it goes and they do the work of the people but they don't meet and debate and everything else they don't do that they just go and

get business done and they do it like two or three times a year. Usually it's a week. There is one time a year that it is three weeks. What is he asking for? Five. And they're like, that's unheard of. I can believe the goal of him doing. It's, it's never historically ever, anything like this ever happened. Yeah, it happens every year. And he's only asking for two more weeks and you know why? Because the Labor Party is doing everything they can to make sure there is no Brexit. And what he wants is nobody's going to negotiate with us when they know Parliament is working to screw it up. So he's like, give me five weeks without you guys so that I can negotiate and see if we can get a better deal. But just know,

that we're not, if we don't get a better deal, we're still leaving because the people voted for it. Let's Labor's response? Yeah, well, that was three years ago. And it was a narrow margin, so I don't know if we can say it's the will of the people anymore. Oh my gosh, shut up. So that's what this is. Now, I told you before, like 10 years ago, chaos is the operative word. of the future and today now.

Chaos. Anything that causes chaos, you should look out for it. Because chaos is going to play a role in everything from here on out. What you're feeling, what most of us are feeling, is chaos.

We may not describe it that way, but it is. It's chaos in the Justice Department. It's chaos in Congress in the Oval Office. It's chaos in our streets. It's chaos in our neighborhoods. It's chaos.

Brexit, without any kind of a deal, that's chaotic. So what's happening? 29% of London homeowners are panic selling their homes ahead of Brexit. I mean, if you were ever thinking about, I mean, I don't know why you would, but if you were ever thinking about buying a house, you know, in London town, Oh, it's fantastic. You can get at least, well, let me give it to you this way. They are, prices are being cut now, at least by 10%,

about 11% of the listings have seen at least a $46,000 cut from their initial price just recently. 18% of homes have listed have seen at least ahead. a 10% drop ahead of the October 31st deadline. And Sterling has lost about 10% of its value. So you're going to get in some, you know, you're getting some good deals. Right, Lovie? Oh, yes, kiss me again, Boris. I just love it.

Now, some other chaos, the Democratic candidates. Christian Gillibrand has exited the president. presidential race. And this is all I'm going to say on this. She ran as a feminist, and she didn't meet the criteria. And she's not, she says, this is, this is, this is, this is, this is crazy. You know, it's not very transparent. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Of course not. It's run by the Democrats. You think you're good. Yeah, you know who's really transparent, communist and socialist? They love, when it comes to, when it comes to elections, Putin is so unbelievable with his transparency. The most transparent election, I think, in the world happening in Venezuela. Yeah. Oh, you bet. Yeah. So I just want to give this to you. I want to read what came out of Politico. This is the article, and they're like, hey, you know, she doesn't understand what happened.

And, you know, it's very confusing. And so we've lost another one. do we not know what happened listen to this still jill brown built a reputation as a creative campaigner who showed up at unconventional locales she bartended at iowa's oldest gay bar she arm wrestled college students and appeared at a drag show in demoyne oh well i think that sounds like just mainstream u s a Doesn't it? I mean, it seems like that's where everybody's hanging out, right? Sure. Now, when we come back, Bernie Sanders has a plan to regulate all of your life.

And he's about nine points ahead of Donald Trump in if the election were held today. And it was between the two of us. So don't think this isn't coming along with eavesdropping. You're listening to Glenn Beck. Wait until you hear this Apple story. Internet's pretty wild and woolly these days. It wasn't like that. You know, when it came around the first time,

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program from the shadows of the everlasting hills. That's not, I got a hose not in the shadow of the everlasting hills. Yeah, it is. The shadow is cast a long way. No.

We're in the mountain, we're in the mountain west today. Welcome to it, Pat. Thank you. Oh, by the way, Pat. Just for you and, just for you and Stu, let me explain, this is a fishing shirt, okay? this is this is a very expensive Columbia are you going to be fishing during the show thank you thank you all I have up here is sport and mountain wear that's all I have I'm sorry I'm sorry

well it's not like you could have known you were doing television shows right you were there no there's a there's no way to tell specifically said to me I am not packing a bunch of clothes for you to drag up there and and you have plenty of clothes up there And I'm like, okay, you sure? And she's like, yeah, I don't have any clothes up here. I mean, I've got all this stuff. I don't have like TV clothes. In solidarity with you today.

I'm wearing my riding pants. And I got my polo stick outside. Shut up. It's ready to go. Shut up. All right. All right. I want to go a couple of things.

Pat, I got something great for you coming up in just a second. But first, let me just go over what Apple apologized for yesterday. I love this, yeah. Apple was busted using human contractors and giving them access to listen to Siri customers. You know, Siri is the digital assistant. If you have an iPhone or an iPad or anything else, they were given tapes to contractors and to Apple. where they had recorded things including sexual encounters

and they said yesterday you know we realize that we haven't been fully living up to our high ideals and we apologize oh really okay we realized we just got caught and now we need to do some dancing our high ideals we have we have high ideas

and we just realized that we're violating some of those really by listening to people have sex you think that's a that was that was a close call for you you didn't realize you were violating the high ideals when you were listening to people well let me tell you something if people can't be more quiet during sex they deserve it

right they deserve it listen here's what you need to do here's what you need to do my wife she doesn't she doesn't believe me on this I'm telling you uh and I you need to take your phone and plug it in In the bathroom or in, you know, wherever it is in the kitchen, don't put it in your bedroom.

All the real private conversations we have, we have in the bedroom. We'll be laying there at night and we'll talk about the kids and everything else. And we have real private conversations with the phone sitting right there. Yep. Don't do it. Now, there's one more thing. Part of the problem before you get to the other thing. is that we just were so addicted to these devices.

And I include myself in that. We're not willing to do without them. And we're not willing to make Apple pay for this by not buying our products. Because we're so, we're just completely reliant upon them now. Oh, it's a brave new world. Fifteen years ago, we did completely without them. And we were totally fine. But now we're crack addicted.

And so. I have said this so many times to my wife. I've said, you know what, let's just leave the phones. Leave the phones. Can't. Can't. No. How did we live just 10 years ago?

You know, we were trying to watch something last night. It was something educational. You know, it was actually the evolution thing with David Galerenter or however they said. Oh, isn't that great? Totally different. But that's not how they say it. Did you notice that? I know.

I know. Yeah. Yeah, I did. So do you know which way is right? Because I, no, I just know that I've, I've asked him in the past, and we heard Glartner. Yeah, I've called him Galertner for years. And he's never correct. I know he's never corrected you on that.

But anyway, he's, he completely says, okay, the Darwin theory is impossible. It just didn't happen. But anyway, we're watching this, 57 minute thing. Every 15 seconds, her phone went off. Every 15 seconds, it's like, put your phone away. for half a minute. But she wouldn't. She couldn't.

You can't. You have to, if that, if that signal goes off, you got to check it. And it's like, it's Pavlov's dog. Signal goes off, and check it. I really truly believe that the main use for our pools,

because everybody in Texas has a pool because it's a billion degrees. But you can't use it now because everybody's like, oh, is your pool heated? No, I need. I need it air conditioned. I need it to run over ice as it is.

I mean, it's like you're getting into a pot of, if you feel like a lobster, you're like, am I being cooked in this? Anyway, I think our main use for pools in the future will be just to throw phones and iPads and everything else into the pools. Yep. Anyway, here's the latest. Now, this one's coming from Great Britain. There is such an extensive, you know, CCTV, you know, CCTV. camera network. We're watched all the time. They have more than now China, they have more except for China. They're constantly, you're constantly being monitored. Well, they've added a new technology

to the CCTV cameras, which is fantastic. They now have a new software program that is lip reading technology. So if you're just walking down the street and you're having a conversation, the government can read your lips and it can tell them if there's something bad that's about to happen. Isn't that great?

Is that being employed now? Or they're talking about putting that? Now. No, now. And what's the excuse? I mean, we're going to stand for that? Are we going to that's going to be okay with people? And it will be okay with people here too.

It will. Yeah, it'll start there. And in two years, it'll be here. And they'll, well, it's for your safety. This way we'll be able to read the lips of terrorists who are plotting attacks. And we'll be able to head them off. You know how coaches, you know how coaches on the sidelines they cover their mouth? Yes.

I'm surprised you know that. That's what, someone definitely gave him that information. No, no, no. I do know that because some game a few years back, somebody. Oh, yeah. No, come on. Somebody was. You're almost there.

Shut up. You almost. It's a fishing shirt. No, it's true. I mean, you watch the same thing when they have mound visits and baseball games. Like, they just put the gloves, the baseball. Over their mouth. And then they have the whole conversation from behind the glove.

Everyone's going to be doing that walking around now. Yeah, that's what they're saying now in England is that you want to make sure they just private when you're walking down the street make sure that you're covering your mouth so i'm going to do that now because i'm going to we're talking about things that really i don't want the government to know you know what i'm saying they're all i guess privacy experts are also advising not to broadcast your conversations over national radio that's a new thing that they're recommending oh crap are we on the radio every day when did that start geez so pat i thought of you last night and you're going to love this story.

Okay. You're going to love this story. It can be shown now for the first time after a near complete skull of some long name was found in Ethiopia. It's an ape-like adult male about five foot. It weighed 100 pounds.

The upper jaw was just found you know by one of the you know chief scientist at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. And he said, I couldn't believe it when I spotted it. It's a dream come true. This is a game changer in our understanding of human evolution.

And apparently this might be Piltdown Man. And I know you love Piltown Man. I love Piltdown Man. It's my favorite story of all time. A 41-year hoax against scientists. You all I had to say was all I needed to say was Piltdown Man. I don't know. Wait, what is Pilthown, man?

Don't encourage him. Part orangutan, part human skull put together by some hoaxter, and scientists didn't know it for 40 years. It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable. So when are we going to find that out about this 4 million-year-old skull? It's going to be the same thing. And this ties into what we were talking about with the David Glearner thing.

And there are two other scientists whose names I can't remember. But they were all saying, they were all saying. Same way. They're very credible. Very credible. But I don't know who they are. And I have no idea who they are. And the one you do know who it is, you don't know how to pronounce his name. But we know he's at Yale and we know he wears a glove because the Unabomber tried to kill him. That much I do know.

That much I know. And he's a nice guy and we've had him on the air. Good guy. And the interesting thing to me was, Gleartner was saying, yeah, Darwin, it's impossible. It didn't happen. It's, you know. Now he is a guy who loves. liked the elegance. He said it was beautiful. Yeah. He said Darwin's theory was beautiful. And he doesn't necessarily subscribe to intelligent design. I think he's willing to consider it,

it seemed like. But at one point, he almost dismissed it during the discussion between the three of them. There was only one of them who was really into the intelligent design theory. And I don't know what replaces Darwin if it's not God. But it's fascinating to me. that after all this time, there are legitimate scientists who are saying, no, this just didn't happen. No, it's, you know, it didn't happen. It's not that, you know, if you really listen to that, I love, I'm so glad you watch that. It's available at glenbeck.com, by the way. Everybody should watch it.

As I, as I watched, as I watched this, it was such a nice, it was such a logical takedown of, it really was. Darwin and there was no animosity there was no animosity toward Darwin at all it's not like they wanted to take him down it's just they just said it doesn't work they said he yeah and he wouldn't have known

that nor would have any scientists known that up until really the last 50 years it doesn't you know it's hard to explain the last 50 years especially the last 20 but once you get once you have the scientific knowledge of the coding of the DNA strands.

You know that it doesn't work, and he, you know, Darwin wouldn't have known any of that. Right, because 150 years ago. Right, we had no way. So the math doesn't work and the biology doesn't work. And he did say that all three said that it would work only in small adjustments. So in other words, the beak needs to be a little different or you need to have a little less fur,

that kind of stuff would change, but not from one species to another. And if you watch the thing, it'll explain it to you, and it'll make a lot of sense. It's kind of complicated, but when you watch it, I think you'll understand it.

And it's either at the beginning of the strand of the DNA, you have to have the beginning of whatever it's going to morph into, or it'll be that thing already, and it will kill the previous organism, Or at the end, you add what it's going to morph into, and it kills it anyway. So there's just no way for this to happen along the chain of DNA. Yeah, if you're, if you're, you know, making an elephant and you've got a lion, when you have that first strand of DNA, it has all the bone structure and what the innards,

the size of the innards, what they have to be, et cetera, et cetera, you don't just, well, for instance, like a horse and a cow or what is the closest thing to a cow? A cow has three stomachs and it has three stomachs for a really good reason. Well, what it morphed out of, you know, according to Darwin, wouldn't have three stomachs.

Right. So you can't make a cow from that other because how it wouldn't be, you don't have like one stomach and then two stomachs, and now finally a third stomach, and there's a fourth growing someplace that we just haven't seen yet. It would kill the animal because the animal wouldn't work. It's fascinating.

Yeah, and it might sound like a jumbled mess because neither one of us are scientists, but when you watch it, they explain it so elegantly. Whoa. Well, you're a doctor, but you're not a scientist, right? What is a scientist? if not a doctor. And I have to tell you, this show has won many, many awards. We're known for our heavy science.

We have so many great things left for you in today's show. Up next, our final installment on the economy. This one, this ain't your daddy's capitalism. We'll go over it next. Don't miss it. It's full of great facts. You're listening to Glenn Beck. We're so glad that you're listening.

This is the 10th anniversary, the 9th anniversary of Restoring Honor, and the fourth anniversary of restoring unity in Birmingham, Alabama. And I'm glad you're with us this week. We're talking about capitalism this week and what's really happening, in our country with the economy. Coming up in a second, this isn't your daddy's capitalism. And I want you to listen carefully, if you will, has a lot of stats in here that you need to share with your friends.

It has a lot of information that your friends really need to know because what we're talking about is truly the destruction of every country in the world. and you will understand that coming up in just a second. It's time for America to step to the plate, but not with our military this time. That's not the most powerful thing we have. And you will come to really understand this in a completely different way in just a few minutes.

Stand by. All this week, we have been doing a series on the economy and telling you the facts of what is really happening, things you're just not going to hear on MSNBC or I mean sorry CNBC you're not going to hear it on the Fox Business Network even that nobody is talking to the average person and it is really really important that you you know the facts because you're the one going to be paying the price today as our final chapter

this ain't your daddy's capitalism and today you're going to really truly understand how important it is that we do not let this country slide into socialism. The entire world, and as I will show you, this is not hyperbole. The entire world is counting on us. I'll explain in one minute. This is the Glenback program. You would think that as time has gone on, problems like identity theft would become a thing of the past. We live in an age of phenomenal technology, you know, with Apple announcing yesterday that, oh, you know, we've been listening to literally listening to people having sex, you know, on their phones.

And sorry, we're Apple and we should have higher standards. Oh, you think so? you would think as people could monitor everyone, find out track everyone, you'd think that we would be more secure, but the opposite is true. Cybercrime is rampant. Identity theft is one of the most common ways that a person living in the 21st century can lose absolutely everything. Pieces of your identity go out over the internet every day all the time. That is why I have life lock. I'm going to tell you a story in a couple of weeks after this passes, but it will chill you to the bone.

So all week, we have been discussing the economy, how we got here, where we're headed, what's happening with China and the trade war, the blessing and the curse of a hundred years of credit expansion by the central banks, and how the progressive left and the progressive right want to return the world to now hyperinflation and hyper spending by global governments with something called MMT, modern monetary theory.

It's toxic. Today, I want to talk about where we need to go from here, what we need to go from here, what we as individuals must realize the choices that we have in front of us and the consequences of not making the right choice and the consequences truly is global destruction make no mistake as you will understand in the next 20 minutes this is up to us this is once again it has been left up to America to step up and save the world from itself it's a role that we are familiar with, but usually that means we have to send our military someplace. This does not include the military. That is not our source of real power. But it should be a,

it should be a, you know, something we're familiar with. The world always asks us to step up. In 76, the British Empire ruled 35% of the world's population. We were the first colony to break off from its parent stem in the history of the world. And we set an example that cascaded into a series of independence movements that eventually freed more than 30 nations from the British rule. So, yeah, we really don't like colonialism. It's why we don't take over parts of the world. In 1917, the world was tearing itself apart over in Europe, World War I,

the might and industry of the U.S. that brought, brought peace and ended Imperial Germany and Austria's plans for European conquest happened because not because we sent over troops, but because we had industrial might. Hitler's national socialists, the Emperor Hirohito, the Imperial Navy, had rolled over every single nation in their path by 1941 before we got in. the Allies had known nothing but defeat. After the U.S. first attack against Japan, the Allies experienced nothing but victory.

In the aftermath of World War II, the USSR pounced on their neighbors' war fatigue and just rolled over European countries while we gave those countries back to the people. They beat people into submission until about 1989. time after time generation after generation it is the U.S. that is called to live up to our mission statement a mission statement first proclaimed by a group of men yeah they were all white and they were all men they were really smart no one had ever uttered the words that had these men uttered

and then put down on paper and announce to the world. We recognize, protect, and defend individual liberty and freedom. And you know what? The world took us at our word for the first 150 years. We know they did because they kept asking for us to help them realize that dream. And to prove it, we defeated. despots, kings, fascist sociopaths, totalitarian empires, Soviet dictatorship of the majority, every time we raised our banner, we destroyed the enemy before us, leaving the world more free,

more fair, more just than what we found. And today, the world is in one very clear voice. they are calling on America again. They are asking for our help. We are already answering this call, but no one is talking about it. And you don't notice it because you think, as many politicians do, our might is in our military.

That's not our might. They're asking us to play our familiar role to ensure the people of Earth do not slip back into slavery that we have fought to escape since the Enlightenment. Once again, as you will come to understand in the next couple of minutes, America is the last best hope for mankind. And if we fail this time, the world is swallowed by darkness. People will say, I have not heard anyone ask.

They are begging for our leadership. They're asking for America to step in and use their might and ingenuity to guide the world back to sanity. It is as clear and as bold as any bat signal against the clouds. Now, I'm not talking about what we hear from their pundits and their politicians. No diplomatic posts have arrived. No new proposals for an alliance or Churchillian speeches saying, and telling God's good time a new world with all of its power and its might step-seration of the old. It's not coming that way.

Instead, if you read it in the headlines, we're the world's pariah. From Macron in France, our consumerism is destroying the planet. Putin in Russia, we're imperialists bent on world domination. Zee and China, we're a bully. Canada's Trudeau We're the world's worst Luter In the global press

America is a cliche Redneck, violent, misogynist racist, xenophobic Public opinion polls of America taken abroad show us to be untrusted despised and feared We're rich We're selfish, we're pompous

We're corrupt, we're uncaring We're too male, too white We have too many damn guns We're destroying the planet One smokestack and tithes pipe at a time and we don't seem to give a crap. So where's the disconnect? Glenn, that's what I hear.

You're telling me they're asking for help. The world is teetering right on the precipice of the abyss. And they know it. Their leaders are all doing the same game. But just like here in America, the people know it. No, Putin's tanks aren't rolling into Western Europe, yet. Z hasn't unleashed secretly embedded software hacks crashing global power grids, yet. Iran hasn't sent the Republican Guard racing across the desert to Israel, yet.

North Korea isn't nuking Tokyo, yet. The world isn't facing annihilation by a military dictator. This time, the enemy is more insidious than ever before. This time the enemy is us. This time the enemy is within our gates and within their gates. This time the enemy is the same power of corruption. From Germany to Japan, Switzerland to Belgium, China to Brazil, Argentina to South Africa, the world is singing fast in quicksand, and that quicksand is of their own making.

And it's the usual suspects. It's the central banks. It's the politicians. And the signs are everywhere. We talked about it all week. The sign is in the data. Global GDP, the total financial output for all nations, all together, sits at $80 trillion. dollars. That means we take every dime that we've made. We put it in a giant heap. We have

$80 trillion. Global debt, public and private, sits at $190 trillion. Now that's not counting China's off-balance sheet of $50 trillion. $190 trillion is our debt. So global debt to GDP is 190%. So for every new dollar created, a $1.90 is already owed. And we hear this all the time. We hear this all the time. Now, everybody used to be concerned about debt. Now, oh no, you know, debt is good. I know there's a lot of debt, really big numbers, too big to comprehend, really. So what? Everything's fine. No, here's what's new. And here is where you hear. the call for America to stand and rise to the occasion. I'll tell you about it in one minute.

You know, there are two parts to buying a house. The fun part and the not-so-fund part. The fun part is seeing the houses, making your plans, designing the look of your future in your head as you walk through the room of a new house. The not-so-fun part is all the paperwork, the stuff leading up to the actual buy. That's where the real estate agent usually comes in,

so you don't have to worry much about that part. But believe me, you want the best person for all of that part, which is why a number of years ago, my wife and I and my brother, Robert, started a real estate company, real estate agents I trust. The name pretty much says it all, and it was started as a passion thing, and it has just exploded. What we did is we took the best practices from the 500 best real estate agents, as named by the Wall Street Journal.

And we used that as our template. We hired a lot of agents since then, thousands of them coming from this audience, but they had to know that template. They had to have best practices. So if you want somebody who can help you create the most value for your home, who has a long track record of success,

and can help you find the right home in the right neighborhood, go to real estate agents, I trust.com. That's real estate agents. I trust.com. 10 seconds. Station ID. Glenn, nobody is calling on the United States to step in. Nobody's depending on us. We're so screwed up. We need socialism. Okay. Let me give you some facts that no one is talking about.

As of July 2019, 94% of global sovereign bond yield paid to investors across the entire planet was paid by the United States. Let me break that down on what that means. Global sovereign bond yields, those are sovereign bonds. These are, you can invest in countries, buying debt and everything else. 94% was paid by the United States to these other countries. As of 2019, 61% of all triple-rated corporate bond yields paid investors is paid by U.S. companies. So, again, out of every $100 earned by investors

all over the globe for investing in a government bond, $94 are paid by the United States. Six are paid by the rest of the world. Let me ask you this. If you knew that stat and you saw that these governments, for instance, I think it's Sweden, is it Sweden? I think it's Sweden, I just read today. It's putting a trillion dollars into our bonds and stocks,

a trillion in U.S. bonds and stocks. That money has always been parked in Europe. They've just taken it out of Europe and invested in the United States. Why? Because 94%, 94 cents on every dollar invested is paid for by the United States investment. 61% out of all of the corporate stocks across the globe, out of every $100 paid out on corporate stocks and bonds, $61 are paid by U.S. companies. This is a world desperate for help.

Remember, they're paying for all these programs, too. They've got to make Social Security. They need investments that are making money. The world is crying out for our help. They're just doing it in a different way. They're just sending trillions of dollars into our economy because we're the only literally the only ones performing. That's them sending up the bat signal.

They're asking us to play our role, to fire up the furnace of American industry, invention, finance, technology. They're not asking us for military, nor should we send military anywhere. It's not our business. Our strongest force we have is our ingenuity and invention and industry. We are literally the world's income. If the United States goes down for every $100 invested, if we pay zero, they only make $6 instead of $100. Because the United States goes down, they don't have the $94.

They only have six, and I guarantee you that if the United States goes down, so does the rest of the world. We are the world's income, the engine of American business, agriculture, manufacturing, e-commerce, banking, finance. Our output is backstopping the entire world as it did after both world wars. Let me give you some perspective. America is only 5% of the world's population. We're 25% of the world's GDP, but we are 94% of the payout on sovereign bonds. That income, that almost every other nation and government is relying on us to stabilize their own economies, to keep their union pensions afloat. to pay for their social security and their defense.

That's the real disconnect between what you see in the press and how they're voting with their wallets. They can say whatever they want about the United States. They're sending us trillions of dollars. China and Russia say we're bullies, but both nations have trillions invested in U.S. equities in real estate. To Canada, we're the world's worst polluter. but 35% of their sovereign wealth fund is invested in the U.S.

To the EU, we're brash and uncouth, but their government and citizens are investing trillions in stocks and bonds. And they have to, because we're the only engine that's working. We can talk about all of our problems, but let's talk about us being the last engine on Earth that's still turning over and starts. Most nations now issue government bonds with negative interest rate. Investing in Germany, Japan, France, Switzerland is a guaranteed loss.

That's not me just making that up. It's in the paperwork. Invest in us and you will lose money. We guarantee it. Wow. How does your nation stay afloat? and what do we have to do? More in a second.

To Glenn. As summer is coming to a close, we're right around the corner from fall. You can smell the pumpkin spice, and the Yankee candles come out that smell like fir trees. Then you get to shovel, shovel snow, scrape ice. Oh, it's great. If you're like a lot of Americans, you'll be traveling with your family this Thanksgiving. What's going to be on your mind as you drive? Is it Aunt Carol's stuffing?

Grandma Betty's turkey? Now probably you're going to be thinking, oh, geez, the road's even open. Are they going to be clear? My car better not break down.

Glenbeck.com is where you get your tickets. This time, this hour, all week. We have been talking about the economy, and I urge you to go back and listen to our number two each week to really get an understanding of what's going on. Today is the final chapter, and we're talking about what we need to do and how the world views us. We are the only game in town. Only game in town. Most nations are issuing government bonds with negative interest. You get a guaranteed loss if you invest in any other country, but this one. And while stocks are up 400% here in the United States since the 2008 financial crisis. Globally, most stocks still sit

50 to 60% below the highs they saw in 2007. They haven't even hit 2007 highs yet. Our productivity per capita is steady. Global productivity has declined. Almost every nation on Earth is massively invested in and reliant on the U.S. economy. For better or for worse, we're the world's reserve currency and the best investment in town. And through their investment in us, they're telling us they need us to succeed. If we don't, the world faces collapse and chaos and breadlines and civil wars, a repeat of the 30s and 40s. And I don't know if you remember that, but that didn't go so well for most people. So what makes us different? How is it that generation after generation, crisis after crisis, the good old U.S.

of A seems to be able to pull ourselves together, fire up the factories, and get the job done. And how do we pull ourselves back on the path to ensure this generation can play the role that we must play now? What is the objective we need to assign to ourselves? Some people will say, well, capitalism, we've got to save capitalism. Well, no, capitalism is not our objective. if we do things right, free market capitalism will be the result of a successful mission. It's not the mission itself. So what's our mission statement? Well, our founders wrote it down.

We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal. They're endowed by their created with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That is our goal. Capitalism is not our goal. It's not the objective. fulfilling our mission statement is the objective and capitalism is the result it's the natural outcome of a system of government that protects individual rights and ensures liberty and justice for all the economic system that results from that legal structure is capitalism but that legal

structure is faltering the reason so many people especially millennials think they dislike capitalism is because we broke capitalism. Today, millennials and many people see capitalism merely as a shadow of what it should be. What they really see, when they say I hate capitalism, what they really mean is I hate cronyism, I hate favoritism, I hate monopolies. I see people who think they're above the law, and they are. I see corruption. I see income inequality, and it doesn't make sense. I see it. And so do you. What I haven't seen in many years, I've never seen it fully, but I saw it a lot better

than it was. I've never actually seen capitalism. I've only seen the grotesque husk that we have made capitalism into, that we and our parents and our grandparents allowed it to become. And here's how we broke it. We broke it by trying to force it. We wanted to shape it into a tool that we could use to a common. accomplish money. Make money, money, money, money, money. That's our goal. That's not our goal.

Capitalism at its best is a service to people. Okay, so it's not money. We got to use it for social justice. No. What we did in the past is we chose industries and companies to favor over others. We said trucks over railroads, Edison over Tesla, oil over nuclear. We stepped in to protect labor versus the corporations. We trapped generations of Americans into labor unions, and we drove American manufacturing and ingenuity overseas. Through our regulation, we stifled innovation. We wanted to make sure people didn't hurt themselves and take something that they shouldn't have. So we, in doing so, created the drug war and now the opioid crisis.

We wanted to ensure that nobody's feelings got hurt, and nobody said anything hateful online. So Google wrote net neutrality and passed it off as something that came out of Washington to protect us from companies like Google. We wanted to protect the stock market from crashes and recession, so we invented the Federal Reserve and gave them authority to manipulate our money as they saw fit. We don't even know which banks these are. What people see today when they look at the American economy is not capitalism.

Through progressivism, we married corporations to government, Google, Facebook, and Twitter. They're merely the latest in a very long line of government-bless monopolies, giving them control over our news, our data, our media, in order to protect us from fake news and offensive memes. America, it is time right now to take a long look in the mirror. The bat signal is up in the sky, and it's coming from all countries on Earth. Please, America, don't screw this up. They're counting on us as they have always counted on us.

We should be going to the Hall of Justice and Meeting like the superheroes Americans are. Not the politicians, but regular people. But we're stuck. We're bound in chains of our own making. We're fat, and we've forgotten how to light this engine. We forgot what the flame and the spark really is. You know, when I was growing up, one of my first cars was an old thunderbird. It had a 429 in it.

And I remember you'd step on it once in a while to blow out all the carbon. Well, you know, we got to blow out all the carbon. This engine is not running right. And that carbon is corruption, social justice, picking favorites, bailouts. It's time for us to clean up the system. Now, there's a role for the government to play in this. We have the playbook for them to follow, but they're not. Every member of Congress, the Supreme Court President Trump,

they all have a dusty copy of it somewhere on a shelf in their office, but they don't take it seriously, even though they made their most sacred vow to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. The goal of that playbook is to realign our society to our mission statement, and that is government's job. Protect and defend the liberty of each individual.

Full stop. Get the bad guys, no matter who they are. Full stop. then get out of our way and we'll do the rest. If we are to rise up and meet the challenge of helping the world right now, right itself, we must start with ourselves. And the idea,

the crazy idea that we would go to the failed policies of the past, the true failed policies of the past, of national socialism, of communism, it's insanity. No more favorite. for the elites. No more special privileges for the big Silicon Valley donors writing their own regulations. No more immunity from justice for corrupt politicians protected by the Washington machine

and apparently what seems to be some sort of a shadow government that runs through the FBI. We must reject the sickness that is infected the rest of the world, the lies that everyone keeps telling us of. We should be more like Sweden. Really? Because Sweden is not a socialist. When it was a socialist state, its growth of jobs was at zero. They got to the point of collapse and changed.

They're not socialist. Check them out on the Freedom Index. I believe Swedes are more free in business than we are. And if they are so great, why do they invest in our sovereign bonds? we should copy the U.S., the U.K. healthcare system and free college. Really? Their health care system, why are they flying over here for surgery? And why are they now just getting rid of free college because they can't afford it?

Well, free college in China. Oh, yeah, really? You know that the U.S. produces 70% of the world's doctors, PhDs, including over half of the PhDs in China? that we should model their system of education? Stop using fossil fuels like Iceland did. Really? Because I remember they had to be bailed out in 2002. They collapsed. They said, tweet us your new constitution ideas.

I don't think we follow Iceland. If following the rest of the road down the path of chaos or socialism that has long been discredited in Europe, If that's the best idea, we wouldn't be the last nation on earth with government bonds still paying out a profit. We wouldn't have so much wealth invested by those people in our stock market. We are the last great hope. And I mean the last. And when I say hope, I mean if we fail, if we don't protect the free market, if we don't clean ourselves up first and restore real justice and an actual free market,

the world will plunge into darkness it has not seen in centuries. The return of the free market, the path to that return, starts where it is always started with America's mission statement that we hold these truth's self-evident. And our Constitution is built to protect that. Protect the little guy

and the big guy equally. I pray that America can see this, that will hear this, and that they will realize

our strength is not our military. Our strength must be our rule of law and our mission statement. From that, blessings flow. All right, when your alarm goes off in your house, police put it at the bottom of the 911 call because they don't, it's usually somebody's alarm went off by mistake, and so they don't take it seriously. And that has them going, you know, and arriving at your house about 45,

five minutes later. Now, imagine, imagine this is a fire, and you have a choice between two fire departments. First fire department, going to get to your house in 45 minutes. That's good. Maybe they'll be able to save most of the house. Maybe everything will be lost. But either way, that's the best they can do. The second fire department, you could choose, they'll get there in seven minutes. There's no choice. There is no choice. Everyone would call the one that could get there in seven minutes. This is why you should invest in SimplySafe. The average time it takes for police to respond to most home security systems is 45 minutes, but with SimplySafe, it is seven minutes.

simply safe beck.com. That's S-M-S-I-M-P-L-I-S-I-S-I-Safebeck.com. That's simply-safeback.com. You're listening to Glenn Beck. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. You know, I've often said we're the floatiest piece of poop in the toilet bowl. It has never been more clear that, you know, what Churchill said was it's the worst capitalism is the worst. worst. It just happens to be the best right now. It's the best we've ever come up with. And in Europe, this is what you need to brace for. Chaos is bad. Chaos is very bad. If we are stable and the rest of the world is in chaos, it will be okay. But we cannot be in chaos with the rest of the world. And with one of the Nordic countries, I can't remember which, for sure. They took a trillion dollars out yesterday

of their sovereign funds which were dedicated to Europe sovereign funds. So you take a trillion dollars away from the governments of Europe and where are they putting it? They're placing it here because they can guarantee a return here.

They are guaranteed losses over in Europe. So you're kind of stuck if I mean if you're taking the money out of Europe you're going to hasten its demise but at least your investment will be okay. So maybe your country will be helped. And all of these countries are doing this.

The money is flowing over here to the United States, and anything that looks unstable hurts us. So we need to stabilize. We need to clean up our system. But I think Europe is headed for catastrophe, another 1930-style catastrophe. uh and those countries will go into civil war there will be revolutions all around the world because people are going to start being hungry because they can't pay for all of the things

they promised that they would pay for people are going to have to go back to work they're going to um you know do without their their government health care and that's not going to go down well with people but that's the reality of things we might get our crap together so we don't go down the tube with everyone else and socialism will flush it imagine getting rid of the free market in this country now imagine what that will do it will tube our country overnight which will tube the entire world you're listening to Glenn Beck we have Jack Fairweather coming up in a second he is the author of the volunteer I'm really excited for this one oh my gosh have you read it

yet? No, I'm adding it to my list, though. This is, yeah, this is an amazing story. I read this, I don't know, last month, and it is, you know, I mean, it has Nazis and heroes saving Jews. I've read it, you know, I've read them. This story is above and beyond almost any story from the era, though. I mean, I've never heard anything like this. And this is a, this is one, a story that was erased because it was behind the iron curtain. And so they just erased this guy. And so it's a new story. And this is one of the most, I mean, spine-tingling heroes that I've ever read about.

It's called The Volunteer, One Man and Underground Army and the Secret Mission to Destroy Auschwitz. It's unbelievable, unbelievable. Jack Fairweather is the author who's really kind of a hero. himself. We'll tell you about that coming up to say. If you are looking for a book to read, I have The Book. I read it last month, maybe three weeks ago, and not only could I not put it down,

it's one of those stories that just stays with you, and you've never heard this story. It's true. It's a history book. It is the greatest hero story I've ever read. And it's a story that was suppressed by the Soviet Union. In fact, erased by the Soviet Union. And has come out sporadically in the last few years, bits and pieces. Jack Fairweather has put it all together.

And it is spellbinding. It's called the volunteer. Jack Fairweather, kind of a heroic figure himself, joins us in one. one minute. Is the Glimbeck program. Okay, if you've missed the last hour, make sure you go back to the podcast and listen to the last hour. I've done a series all week on the economy and what's really going on.

And between China printing $50 trillion off the books and Britain struggling internally to make its decision on Brexit, I think it's Denmark or Sweden yesterday put a trillion dollars took a trillion dollars out of their sovereign bond fund from Europe and put it into the United States. There is real turmoil on the horizon and we all have to act rationally and don't do anything to destabilize or rock the boat. Yeah, right, like that's going to happen. Here's what I would like to talk to you today. The price of gold is almost exactly what it was a century and a half ago. That means at least part of your portfolio, 10% or so, should be invested in it. Now, how could it be worth the same thing as 100 years ago, 150 years ago? A $20 gold piece,

you could walk into any store and you could buy the best suit. Today, if you have that same $20 gold piece from the 1880s, you can go into a store and buy, you know, a Conali suit or a Georgi-Oramani suit. And just use that $20 gold piece. What's changed is not the purchasing power of gold, the bogus currency that is supposed to represent gold. So that's how you don't lose money on gold. If you buy it for an investment, talk to somebody else. I'm not an investment guy.

If you are buying it as a hedge against insanity, that's what I do. When the world starts going towards sanity, okay, but right now the Starfield is rolling rapidly towards insanity. That is a stabilizing factor that I want to have at least part of my life invested in. Visit Goldline at goldline. Call 866 Goldline. It's not right for everybody, especially ask them how I buy it.

He was the guy who was reporting from Baghdad and he was their Persian Gulf Bureau Chief. While living in Baghdad as the Daily Telegraph's Bureau Chief, Jack met his wife to be. They lived in the house of Saddam Hussein's former perfume supplier alongside other reporters. The violence has had escalated in Iraq. Jack was fortunate to survive a suicide bomb attack, a kidnapping attempt, almost daily mortar attacks

around their house. He was embedded with the Iraqi invasion. It won him a British press award, which is the equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize. And then he decided, I think, probably because of all that, you know what, I think I'm just going to move to Vermont and write some books. And I'm so glad that he did. He is a tremendous writer-researcher. And he has written my favorite book of the year so far, called The Volunteer. Jack Fairweather, welcome to the program. Thanks for having to me. Sure.

So, Jack, this story, I want you to take our audience and introduce them to this one man you call the volunteer. And why we've never heard this story before. It's extraordinary, isn't it? So here is the guy. He is 38 years old. He's a farmer in eastern Poland, but for World War II and the Nazi invasion of his country, Poland. He probably would have spent his days farming, his wife and two kids. The Nazis invaded. Poland was plunged into this brutal occupation. Auschwitz concentration camp is opened. June 1940, a few months into the war. And the resistance, which this guy, Pelletsky, joined, needed to find out what was happening in this camp. There were rumors coming to Warsaw that it was this brutal, terrible location for the punishment of Polish nationals. Pelletsky's name was put forward to volunteer for this mission, to volunteer for Auschwitz. And that was a mission that he took in order to tell the world what was happening that.

The incredible, I mean, this story is just full of hair-raising moments. First of all, I talked to one of the righteous among the nations who saved a lot of Jews, and she said almost exactly how you described this man. I asked her, I said, I believe the Tree of Righteousness. is planted in each of us. What's the water? How do we water that tree? And she said, you misunderstand.

She said, the righteous didn't suddenly become righteous. They just refused to go over the cliff with the rest of humanity. So it's just being who you've always been. This guy was not a heroic figure. What in God's green earth made him become this hero? That is a great question, and I think it's exactly as your friend, that survivor told you. He had a way of holding to his moral compass when others lost theirs. He had a deep faith.

He was a devout Catholic. But I think more than that, he had this ability to trust others. And that was incredibly powerful tool for the resistance, because at that time, the Nazis were trying to destroy the bonds between people. They were trying to break us down into racial and ethnic and religious categories in order to pick off groups or pit them against each other. And Pelletsky rejected that so deeply, and he found a way to combat it by reaching out to the people around him and saying, I'm going to trust you with the secret of the underground. I'm going to trust you with my life. And they responded to that.

They responded to that idea that something greater than themselves could endure, both in Warsaw during those first months of the occupation, and then most extraordinarily in Auschwitz. So let me, before we get to Auschwitz, he was not a nationalist. And there's a pull to, nationalism when a country goes through what what they were going through. But when he gets into the underground, he and I can't remember the relationship,

but the other guy that was with him was was friend at first, wasn't he? He called with a guy called Jan Vladokovych. And Jan wanted to take their group in a nationalist direction. He wanted a political agenda. And Pelletsky, I mean, he was a conservative. He was, as I mentioned, a Catholic, a man of sort of traditional values. But he saw the dangers in going in that direction. That was in some ways what the Nazis wanted them to do was to become, you know,

have this narrow ethnic vision of what Poland was. And he went behind his friends back and broke his friendship in order to ensure that his group stayed open to all. Because they were really starting to say, you know, the Jews kind of deserve it and everything else and he didn't feel that way. So he is

kind of trapped on this choice because they need somebody to go into Auschwitz, to volunteer to be rounded up where the Nazis are rounding people up and when they round them up, you have

just as likely of a chance of being shot on the spot as you do going to Auschwitz. And he takes his time to decide when they're saying, you know, I think you're the right guy to go, but you have to volunteer. And that must have been an excruciating decision for him, but he still didn't even know what Auschwitz was at the time. That's right. I mean, he knew enough that walking into a German roundup was exceedingly dangerous.

The underground had been tipped off that there would be a number of big roundups in Warsaw with the idea of just seizing men and sending them to Auschwitz. But it was also the case that during these roundups, there would be random shootings by the Germans of those they captured. it was extremely dangerous. And Pelletsky also had to think, of course, about his wife and two kids. They had escaped from Eastern Poland, been seized by the Soviet Union and safety in a village outside. If Pelletsky was caught, they themselves would be subject to reprisals, arrests, possibly execution.

It was a huge decision, which was why one roundup went by without him. doing anything as he dwelt on on the risks and in the end that sense of duty his that sense of patriotism really that sense in fact that he could do something he believed in himself he believed that he could create a resistant cell in Auschwitz pushed him into making that decision So as he gets into Auschwitz, another point of the story that I have never heard anything like. I mean, it almost seems like, what was the name of that show, Hogan's Heroes, at some point where they've got a radio and everything else, I've never heard this.

And the way you describe how they get the radio and how they wire the camp to be able to smuggle information out is insane. Pelletsky is one of the most extraordinary solution-finding, creative, ingenious, devious men. I think I have encountered, I mean, the underground that he created in Auschwitz, within days, I started creating within days of arriving in the camp. They were soon smuggling out reports, stole a radio to create. their own station to broadcast news of the Nazi crime. They were.

Can you just, can you, can you, can you just, I'm going to take a one minute break and will you just take us through how they got the radio? That, that, that, that night that they had to throw it out a window is, is just nuts. Could you take us through that? Yes, indeed. Okay. We'll do that in, hang on, hang on, we'll do that in one minute. Let me take a quick break and then we'll be back.

This is a must read. It is so good. You've never heard anything of this, and it was destroyed by the Soviets and hidden by the Soviets. And Jack has put all of the pieces together and talk to survivors, and it's fantastic. It's called The Volunteer. When you own your own business,

He's the author of The Volunteer, One Man, an Underground Army, and The Secret Mission to Destroy Auschwitz. The main character, this is a true story.

He goes in, he volunteers to be arrested and to go into Auschwitz to try to set up an underground and to smuggle out information on what's going on. Jack, first, before you get into the radio story, do you think he planned on spending so much time there? Do you think he thought he could get in and out a little faster than he did? He did, and I think he was stunned by the level of violence that he encountered upon arriving in the camp. And I think he also realized that telling the story of what was happening there, informing the world was the most important thing that he could be doing with his time. There was nowhere else that he could be that would have greater impact. So you're a prisoner in Auschwitz.

I mean, I wouldn't know how to judge who you could trust or not, but he's really good, and he gets people to trust him, and he trusts the right people. And he says, the insane thing, we have to steal a radio and then put a little broadcast tower up so we can get this information out of the camp. Explain how they did this. Yeah, it's just an extraordinary. Heist Paleski and a colleague of his learned that there were spare radio parts in the SS Architects office where the SS men were drawing up their plans for building gas chambers and other such ghastly things. They had spare radio parts in that building. So he arranged by paying some bribes to get transferred to that office where some of the inmates worked.

drafting the maps and designs. And one night, Pelletsky and his friends stole the bits they needed from the radio room. They put them through a door, through the window in the toilet, ran undercover, you know, with the guards sort of patrolling on the road outside, ran at night, ditched the radio, ran back into the room without anyone noticing. and then arrange for one of their friends who to collect the radio and smuggle it back into the camp. It was possibly one of the most dangerous activities.

Any moment that they were discovered, they would be shot and probably everyone else and every other prisoner in that building. The way you tell this in the book of how they had to distract one guard who was within eye shot of the cabinet of the radio and the bathroom door, and how one of them had to keep him busy and distracted,

and then go in and have a reason to keep going into the bathroom. And at the very end, when they threw it out on the window, there was like some sort of crash or something outside. I didn't know if it was related to that or not. But all the guards came to, you know, kind of an alert, a state of an alert. the guard that was being distracted heard it and thought it might be something from the bathroom and the guy was outside he had to go out of that bathroom window he had to clamor

back in and i mean it was i mean it's the closest call ever it is this is a fantastic story jack those guys had no of steel i mean how steel i imagine that the of the emotional wreck that most of us would be having to perform such a task. So, Jack, this was hidden. They did the sort of thing day in, day out. This was hidden from the world by the Soviet Union. Did they destroy everything about this, or did they just keep it secret? They destroyed some of his writings.

They locked away in the state archives one of the main reports that Pelletsky wrote after escaping from their camp. Why did they do that? Why did they do that? Paleski, at the end of the war, went back to fight against the communist regimes at the Soviet Union. installed in Poland. And I think, you know, for a lot of people, you know, 1945, War I, victory parades, that was not the case in Poland.

It was, in fact, an escalation of violence, millions of people displaced by Stalin forces, ethnic cleansing. You know, I tell you, if you can hang on, I want to talk about the escape and a little bit of what he went through after it's hair-raising coming up. Preparedness is something I'm a big fan of.

I've been talking about for years on this program and elsewhere. We do not know when things are going to get difficult. And, you know, we're not talking about a catastrophic collapse.

Okay, we're talking to Jack Fairweather. He is the author of The Volunteer, a new book that came out, I think, last month or a couple months ago. I read it last month.

You are going to love this. It's a story you've never heard about a remarkable, heroic and brave beyond belief volunteer to be arrested and go into Auschwitz. and get information out to find out what they were doing in there. Jack, you were saying a little while ago that he couldn't believe the brutality. It was beyond description. And he starts to get this word out, and he really thinks that help is on the way. At what point do you think he, or did he, kind of really,

lose hope, or was he kind of thinking that maybe somehow or another this news is not being transmitted? It's not getting to the right people. After two years in the camp, a member of the underground headquarters in Warsaw is captured and brought to the camp, and Pelletsky tracks him down. It's the first time he's had sort of direct contact with someone from the headquarters, And they tell him that, yes, they've gotten his reports and no action is coming. His pleas to bomb the camp, to send forces to attack it, had fallen on death ears, both in Warsaw, in London and in D.C. And Polacki had no doubt suspected this. He'd been almost two years in the camp by this stage, but it was still a hammer blow to him.

And he responded in that typically Pelletsky style fashion by deciding, I could escape this camp, no matter how dangerous it is. And I'm going to go to Warsaw. I'm going to go to the Allies and persuade them in person that they've got to attack and destroy Auschwitz. And that was the genesis then of his extraordinary escape attempt. Okay, so before we get to the escape attempt, he is the way you describe the information that is

is taken out and how it gets to the allies and how England says we're not going to do this we're not going to do this mission and a lot of people in England are upset about it but they're saying we're not going to do it because

you know this is that's a long range to get there we get lost as it is We have to have clear skies and everything else to go exactly right. And that's a long, long flight that anything could happen. And as you describe it in the, I've always been really pissed at the Allies, particularly America, for not doing anything about it. But for the first time reading your book, and maybe this was not your intent, I kind of understood why they didn't do it. It kind of made sense to me.

Still felt morally wrong, but I kind of understood. Did you come away with that feeling? Yeah, it was my intention to try and show all sides of the story. And that readers sort of reach their own judgment. I think that your feelings reflected to mine ultimately, that you understand the rationale for not attacking the camp. But at the same time, you realize that the moral case for doing so, for making every possible effort to destroy Auschwitz is overwhelming. And it is an indictment on allied leaders that they allowed their sort of the rationality of the moment to beat that absolute moral imperative to destroy Auschwitz that we recognize today.

Okay, so when he plans his escape, first of all, how much of this stuff that he was doing in the camp? I mean, because he was, I mean, he's, in a way, he almost was running the camp. I mean, he could be transferred anywhere he wanted to be. I mean, it was a place to wheel and deal. How common was that in Auschwitz? It was fairly uncommon. Half of the Polish prisoners who went to the camp died. 99% of Jewish prisoners who went to the camp died.

Pelletsky had a small advantage than that he and some of his early recruits were in the camp from the beginning, so they had time to work their way into slightly better jobs that increased their chance of survival. but still, you had to be always alert. You had to have remarkable resources of ingeniousness, and you had to be lucky. And Pelletsky, I mean, for all of his talents, as an underground operative, was also damn lucky at times. And such, you know, he escaped the camp. Two months later, the camp leadership was executed by the Germans.

in the camp. So he, you know, escaped in the nick of time. So he had to convince himself. Take us from the, take us from the escape starting at the hospital. He had to convince somebody, like overnight, he had spent a lot of time convincing the Nazis and the guards that he was, he had to be in this position. I have to work here, and that was saving his life. but he made himself, you know, irreplaceable. And then almost overnight, he had to convince them, no, I've got to go work on this crew to be able to actually escape.

So take us from like the hospital. Right. So he was working in a job in the camp administration, like some of the other prisoners. And he couldn't just sort of switch units. from that position. He had to first of all fake illness to get into the hospital. And once in the hospital, he then had to reach out to the leader, the head prisoner

who was running a detachment that worked in the camp bakery outside the camp. This was going to be the place that he escaped from. And he needed to become one of those inmate bakers. and he just decided to go for it. He checked out of the hospital, even though that was illegal to do so. He went to the capo and he had some stolen goodies, some sweet treats and other things to give this head prisoner who ran the squad and managed to persuade him that, yes, he had permission to join.

I mean, he had then less than 24 hours to escape because at the next roll call, they would discover that this guy had gone to the hospital and illegally checked himself out and illegally switched work assignment. So when he left the camp gates for the night shift with the Baker squad, that was his one shot. There was no going back. and he arrived at that bakery for the night shift about 6 p.m. knowing that he had about five or six hours to work out how to escape from that room. He had two other co-escapers with him and they ended up having to force the door and sprint away with the guard shooting after them at, about 2 a.m. just, you know, with the clock ticking down. And they made it. They made it at least as far as the river. But then, of course, that was just the beginning because he still had to escape from the immediate camp environs. He had to then travel across 100 miles of Nazi-occupied

Poland to reach a safe house. And it took him two weeks of just the most extraordinary very high jinks and close calls to finally to finally escape. And I'm sorry to interrupt. When he escapes, all three of them, well, I'm not going to wreck the book for you, but when he escapes, at one point, he goes to the house that has the man whose name he stole. he was not under his name he took that guy's name and was in Auschwitz under his name uh why did he go to that house i would think that that would be one of the first places that they would search if that's where i mean that that's i mean he was later arrest that guy was

later arrested um and and and they found out oh it's a fake name it was just an extraordinary Coincidence? Coincidence? When he got to that, when he got to the safe house, Poletsky is a real testament to the man. He wasn't, didn't put his feet up and try and sort of rest. Within an hour of getting to that safe house, he was saying, take me to the local leader. We've got to attack the camp right now. And he was taken to see the local commander.

The local commander was the man whose name he had been using him the camp for that two half years. Just a crazy coincidence. And Pelletsky persuaded him of the need to attack the Gamp. And unfortunately, the underground in Krakow, the nearest city, did not believe Poletsky's story. I mean, it tells you something about that mood of paranoia in the country at the time, the roundups and betrayals. And so they thought that Pelletsky was a German spy. So that force Pelletsky then to go to Warsaw to continue his efforts to win over the underground and persuade them to attack Auschwitz. Jack, I am out of time, and I don't want to tell anymore because, I mean, the last part of the book, the last quarter of the book, is after Auschwitz. And it is just as hair-raising.

I just have to thank you so much for writing this, doing the research. I mean, it had to be damn near impossible to do it, to find and track and find all these people that could tell the stories and find the records that still do exist. But I think this is one of the most riveting, empowering, and important stories that I have heard in a long, long time. Thank you, Jack. Thanks, Glenn. Thank you for having me. You bet. Jack Fairweather. You can find him at jack fairweather.com. The name of the book is The Volunteer.

I haven't done it justice this hour. I hope that it has piqued your interest, but I have not done this book justice. You need to read it. It's the volunteer. Back in just a second. One of the listeners to the show, Gary, is a longtime deer hunting enthusiast. In fact, he's part of the hunting lodge of retired guys. He goes out with him every year or so just for a few days during hunting season. Last year, he was forced to admit to the guys that this was going to be his last year.

He had been having horrible, horrible back pain in the last few months, and he got to the point where he just couldn't hike up, and he just couldn't stand the pain going and waiting for the deer. then one of the other guys at the lodge said, Gary, have you tried Relief Factor? Because I was in your boat. Can you try Relief Factor? He tried it.

Now, Relief Factor is a great way to reduce the inflammation that causes pain. It works for 70% of those who try it. It's not a drug. For 1999, you can get the three-week quick start. Gary took the Quick Start challenge. He tried it. This year, not only is he going back hunting,

he's planning on bringing home the biggest prize. Gary, I can't tell you how happy I am for you. Relief Factor. Worked for him. Worked for me. Works for millions of Americans. It's Relieffactor.com.

Please give it a try. If it doesn't work, you're out $20. If it does, you get your life back. Relieffactor.com. 800, 583,84. Relieffactor.com. The Glenbeck Program. Welcome to the Glennbeck Program.

uh we are going to be taking your calls here in just a few minutes i urge you to get on the phone i i want to hear from you about how you feel about the economy how you feel about politics what your thoughts are on the democratic candidates and and don't we're headed i read but i want i don't want to hear it about the comments about the national stuff what i want to hear really is what's happening in your life and in your community. I had a woman call yesterday. We couldn't get a chance to get to her call. We took her number.

I hope to get her on. But she said she's a Hispanic woman, and she's a Trump supporter, and she feels like she better not open her mouth. And so I want to hear the good and the bad. Is that the way your neighbors are? Because my neighbors are not like this. And I'd just like to hear it from you.

I want to get a, you know, the reason why I was so misguided with you on Donald Trump is not because I believed what I believed, but because I didn't take the time to listen to you and say, what's happening in your life. And I want to do that through this campaign season because I understood what you were seeing in Donald Trump. Once I asked that question, I got it. I got it. And I was too far removed and quite honestly too arrogant. And I want to remain a reflection of you because I don't think anybody or very few people in the mainstream media, hardly any, if any, are a reflection of you. And so I need you to call now and tell me what's happening in your life. Back.
