Well, I'm back after two weeks, and I want to thank all of you for not solving a damn thing. I mean, it looks like it's the same world as we left it. Thanks a lot, Stu. Not one solution to anything. Appreciate it.

I have some commentary that has been rolling around on a couple of different stories that I think I have a different take on. One of them is the assassination of the Japanese Prime Minister Abe. The other is on a story of Sri Lanka. Why would I, why on God's Green Earth would I start after two weeks with a story about Sri Lanka? Because it is our future. And I will explain in 60 seconds. Sherry wrote in about our experience with Relief Factory. She says, I'm a 74-year-old, 75-year-old great-grandmother with chronic back pain.

I recently got the added bonus of a tear in my rotator cuff. Relief Factor is allowing me to live a normal life for the first time in three years. I don't know why or how, but I don't care. I'm thankful that it works. Sherry, thank you for writing in and thank you for trying Relief Factor. You can try it yourself. a three-week quick start.

Feel the difference. All right, let me give you a couple of stories here. Germany is now moving to reactivate the course. coal plants because they're afraid Russia is going to cut off the gas. Swiss, the Swiss, are now preparing for gas shortages and are looking at rationing their fuel. The world is learning a lesson. Now, let me take you to Sri Lanka, because this is the lesson that we should all learn today. you might not be familiar with the island nation of Sri Lanka other than its name,

but it is the foreshadowing, dark foreshadowing of things to come in this great reset-bound world. 22 million people inhabit Sri Lanka. 22 million people are now struggling to survive. They're now facing the worst economic crisis they have ever encountered since, declaring independence in 1948. The government is now all but bankrupt. They're in default on foreign debt. They can't afford critical imports to sustain their people.

Medicine has now become too expensive or scarce to get a hold of. Fuel prices on this little island are out of control. It began to spiral out of control as long lines formed at gas stations. Then violent brawls would sometimes break out between people and the military and the police holding them back. Food prices skyrocketed. Food prices became unsustainable when gas went through the roof. Now Sri Lanka is on the brink of chaos. Videos have emerged of starving and desperate people attacking others out in the street.

Everything culminated this weekend. as thousands of angry rioters stormed the presidential palace and forced the resignation of their leader. Sri Lanka. I mean, I don't know anything about Sri Lanka. Why would I care about Sri Lanka? Here's what happened to Sri Lanka. There was an IMF bailout package,

and it was really Sri Lanka's final option for recovery. But a few days ago, the IMF walked away from the deal. Now, if you know about it, Sri Lanka or you happen to, you know, have relatives in Sri Lanka, you're wondering what I'm wondering, why they did everything they were supposed to do. They played by the rules as ordered. So why is the global financial system now abandoning Sri Lanka? A few short years ago, to the global economic elite, Sri Lanka was the jewel of Asia. The World Economic Forum showered them with praise.

In one of their puff pieces highlighting Sri Lanka's leadership of the rest of the world, the article was titled, This is How We Will Make Sri Lanka Rich by 2025. That was four years ago, and now they're bankrupt. So what happened? Well, the usual crap that we hear from the overlords in Davos, and it was all described in that W-E-F article, Sri Lanka was to concentrate on a social economy,

spending millions in the transformation to a new kind of capitalism. They would double down on green energy. Any of this sound familiar? How about this? Sri Lanka cut taxes but also didn't cut spending. In fact, in order to fuel the great reset of their economy, they began printing cash at unprecedented levels. because they had a green economy they just had to serve.

And because everything went green and they needed it right now, they upended their farming and agricultural production. Any of this sound familiar to anyone. Everything had to be organic and everything had to be grown with new rules. Now, the World Economic Forum said it was going swimmingly. They said, quote, The plan is delivering impressive results. The current government has created 460,000 jobs.

So you know the government doesn't create jobs. The current government created 460,000 jobs. Help more than 260,000 families secure a home. Strong progress is being made. The government is also invested to generate green energy and provide water resources for agro production. You see, look at all of the things. when you just decide to build back better.

Look at all the wonderful things that come. Well, that's when it first started four years into it. We need to update the scorecard. This is what followed that initial push. Bankruptcy, inflation, default, shortages of food, shortages of commodities, shortages of fuel, violence in the streets. And in the end, the organizations that support, reported them and pushed them in that direction.

The organizations like the IMF and the World Economic Forum just walked away. WEF just ran an article, reporting on how Sri Lankan public workers are now being given extra days off. Well, that's fantastic. Do you know why they were given extra days off? Quote, so they can grow their own food, end quote. Now, does anybody in Davos? Anybody like George Soros?

Yes, I know some people have to be hurt. They'll be hurt. Yes, they'll lose their business or whatever, but it's a great experiment and lots of fun for me. You remember him saying that? They don't feel guilty. The IMF doesn't feel guilty. To them, entire countries are mere casualties of war in their grand experiment. It's the same thing with socialism and communism and progressivism.

One by one, the experiment fails. Nations fall, thousands, sometimes millions die or starve to death. And they never say, well, crap, geez, that was our fault. They say it wasn't done right. Well, they didn't check all of the boxes. Whatever the excuse is, it's never their fault. They observe the ashes from afar, and then they double down and try it again. remember what they did to Sri Lanka the next time you hear Klaus Schwab,

say, now is time for great reset. Whenever you hear him say that, whenever you hear about build back better, whenever you hear about our agricultural industry needing to go green, whenever you hear about how Russia is causing the gas prices, I want you to think Sri Lanka. Remember,

Biden and John Kerry say, we just have a few short years to get this done in America. Yeah. Don't worry, you'll own nothing and you'll be happy. So far, they got the first part in Sri Lanka, right. They own nothing. Now if they could just get the happiness part, they would be set. Have you noticed also in the Netherlands?

What's happening up in the Netherlands? Have you seen? The Netherlands are being forced to go green, as well. The Netherlands, of course, you know, are part of this great reset. And there's Dutch farmers. These Dutch farmers, they don't like this Green New Deal. They oppose these pollution cuts. My goodness. They just won't play along. Well, they'll get it eventually. So now the farmers in the Netherlands, the Dutch farmers. Have you ever heard of anyone in the Netherlands ever getting upset at anything?

They're now taking their tractors in, and they're bringing their tractors in, and they're blocking trucks. They're burning hay on the streets. They've taken, they've taken crap from animals and poured it on the steps of the Capitol. This is because they can't use the fertilizer that they've been using. That nitrogen oxide and ammonia, oh man, we can't use that, because that's not natural, you know.

That's ammonia? nitrogen? No, it's not natural. We can't do that. They say it's going to close down their farms. It will shut down their farming ability. It will cause mass starvation, they say. So we could either listen to the experts, or we could listen to the people who actually grow the food and have been growing our food forever. You're right. We should probably listen to the experts. This is happening. Look for civil unrest. Look for inflation unrest. You will see this happening all over the world. This goes to something I told you in 2009 would happen. They're all going to blame the United States.

In the end, they will blame the United States. and half of our own damn people will blame the United States as well. Let's put this blame right squarely where it belongs on the shoulders of the elites that are running all of our countries, because this is happening all over the world. They think they know better. They don't. Just stand in that truth for a while. I have much more confidence in you solving things, even though Stu and Pat didn't

solve a darn thing while I was gone. I gave you two weeks. Not one problem has been solved. I thought you said screw up a bunch of stuff like Sri Lanka. And we, I thought we were following your guidance. Okay. Yeah. No.

I have more confidence in the American people than I do in any expert. I think if we would just leave this to our cities and our local governments, we would be fine. We would be fine. You know, government, just do the things,

you know, there's only a handful of things. You just do those things for a while. And we're going to watch, make sure you, you know, you actually secure our borders. You actually are, have you heard the latest? We're about to lose

about, I think, is it a quarter of our National Guard because they won't get the vaccine? Well, why is anybody even talking about the vaccine still? So we're going to lose a lot of our National Guard because of the vaccine. 22% of the police force in San Diego.

Gone. Why? They wouldn't get the vaccine. So they just let go 22% of the police force. What could possibly go wrong? I mean, this, I mean, no, we don't need police. We're going to reimagine the police. and then we're going to do something about it.

And when we do it, it's going to be great. Trust us. Back in just a second with more. Our sponsor, this half hour, is the Tuttle Twins. Our freedoms are under tack and true history is disappearing. The socialists are rewriting it, and they've been winning for a long time. I'm going to show you the pattern of totalitarian takeovers. I'm going to do that in hour number three.

today. I want you to make sure you're listening because one of the things, one of the first things they do, after they so discontent, is they take over the schools. And gee, that hasn't, I mean, does that sound familiar at all? Take over the schools. They rewrite history. They rewrite the morals. They rewrite absolutely everything. Well, that's happening. And if we don't

teach true American history, we're screwed. Break the cycle. Help your kids learn real history. There is a solution. I am really happy to announce. I don't think I brought it in because I was reading it to the kids. 240 page fully illustrated book from the Tuttle Twins,

and it teaches the inspiring stories of our country's past. It makes learning fun for the kids. And here's the thing. It doesn't center everything. on the names and the dates.

Armenia, Sri Lanka. Of course, now Sri Lanka is being blamed on Russia. Wow. Hey, if we just, we wouldn't have a problem in the world today. If we just got rid of all the Russians. Right? Hmm. That's one way of talking about it.

Yeah. I mean, when in reality, as you point out, a, nationwide ban of fertilizers that worked to go to completely organic farming across the country, big cause of this, and the only country in history to actually say they are doing modern monetary theory. They say that, that's not us saying that, they said they were doing modern monetary theory. They were trying it out. They wanted to see how it worked, and this is how it works. That's good stuff. But that's Russia, right?

No. I mean, that's... No. Sri Lanka. No, I thought... No, we were blaming it on... No, but Sri Lanka... Yeah, they did those things.

Whatever. But it's Russia... Mm-mm. That is responsible. No. No, that's not... I'm sure that didn't help things. It doesn't seem to be helping anything anywhere, but...

This one was on them. Yeah, Sri Lanka is... Yeah, Sri Lanka is... Well, certainly not the United States. We're different. It'll work differently. here. So far it's not seemingly that different, but I'm sure it will be. Sure it will be. Hey, by the way, they're not calling it a run on the banks in China. It's just a holiday.

Just a holiday. And it's, well, it's been a, it's been a holiday now for a while. I think their banks, some of their banks closed in April. But, you know, people just, you know, hey, so what? The bank is on an extended holiday. And now people are starting to protest in China because they can't get their money out of the bank. And the Chinese are like, what are you talking about? Relax. They're just on holiday. You know, they were supposed to be back, but, you know, there's no problem with the bank.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. So the prime minister of Japan was shot and killed, assassinated.

When did that happen on Friday, right? Saturday, Friday? Yeah, Friday. Friday, Japanese time. And it was quite a shock. There are some stories out, and I've noticed Washington Post, New York Times, all of the NPR, all of the, all the left media, which is 90% of them. They all started out with he was an ultra-nationalist. he's a Donald Trump

and I thought you know he was also one of our greatest allies he was a friend to the West a big friend to the West and you know these people they they excoriate him for being an ultra nationalist but you know when when Cuba's leaders

die oh man they were great oh they were great oh they were great Venezuela. Oh, he was, are you kidding me? He was, I mean, he's no Castro, but boy, he was close. And this guy, they excoriate. He also, he also was a guy who wanted Japan to have some defense of their own, you know,

and not just rely on the United States. He actually thought that they should protect themselves. And I think, you know, that was. interesting as well and that was a real positive for Japan because he wanted them to be strong again he wanted them to be what he called a normal nation and to do all the things that normal nations do he had an interesting approach that was very different for Japan so I'm wondering and I'm looking out reaching I have not been able to find word one on it from Abe but I'm sure it exists.

I'd like to know if he was a fan of the Great Reset because I think this is why he was called an ultra-nationalist. He believed in, you know, his own country. Good for him. He believed in their own sovereignty. Good for him. But the current Prime Minister is all for the Great Reset. In fact, says that Japan is going to be the model for the world.

He is calling for a, and he's putting it into place already, a new democratic capitalism that will balance growth and redistribution. They are going to invest in green technology and human capital. He is saying there's a historic, economic, and social transformation that Japan will pioneer in the new, form of public private partnerships with leaders of government, industry, and labor all working together to develop a paradigm shifting policy. There's been an over-reliance on competition and self-regulation to constrain the accesses of the market forces. This must change. So they're changing it. I'll bet you his party was not for these changes. I would guess that's true. And they just won the election too.

So it'll be interesting to see if they can stop the new policies from the prime minister. But Abe really helped Japan rebound to a point where it hadn't been in a really long time. Japan was what? An economic power in the 80s, but then it went through really tough times for the next two or three decades. And Abe brought them back to economic power. He restored their economic power. So I don't know why he would all of a sudden shift on that when he did such a great job. Yeah, I don't know.

I just think everybody who is an ultra-nationalist, that word doesn't mean what they think it means. They apply ultra-nationalists to anybody who loves their country. And I think that's one of the bigger divides between the elites. and the people all over the world. Japanese love Japan. They should. They have rich, rich heritage. Chinese love Chinese in China.

You know, we, I think, at least 50% of us love America. We should. We should be proud of our nations. Well, if you are, though, you're a hater of other nations, I guess. That seems to be the prevailing theory now. And that's why the tag ultra-nationalist. Well, come on. Everybody loves your nation.

Yeah, that was kind of the Obama pitch, right? Like everybody, you know, people from Finland love Finland. Yes. You know, we're not exceptional. Everyone thinks they're exceptional. And that is the real. That's the Democrat way. Yeah.

That's the way they think behind the scenes. So they don't recognize. They just seem it as like jersey chasing, right? Like everyone has a jersey of their home team. of course they love them. There's no reason for that. They just have, because they happen to be born in a place.

What does that matter? That's not why we love America, though. Not because of the geographical location. It's got nothing to do with that. It's the idea behind it is the biggest part of that that fuels our love for the country. And they don't recognize that at all. I'm not sure people recognize that, though. I mean, how many people can you point to that really understand the principles?

that we were founded on. Yeah, I think it's much more rare than I would like it to be. Though I think there's a generalized idea that people understand that it's, you know, it is freedom to be able to do the things that you want to choose your own path. You don't get drafted into a certain profession at 15 years old like you did in the Soviet Union. You know, that stuff, you have a choice to kind of be able to move around and do the things that you want, live where you want, work in the job that you want, express yourself freely, you know, free speech, freedom of religion.

Those things, I think are pretty, pretty central. And, you know, I think, I don't know they'd express it this way, but I think there's a, there's an idea that free markets are a big part of that, that you can, you can choose to buy and sell, and there's this dynamic economy that has done so many things for the world. I think people do recognize that at some level, even if it's not allowed anymore. Even if you get kicked off of social media for mentioning such things anymore, I think it's still part of the American culture. I'm not sure what the American culture is, though, at least for half the country.

Could I just play cut two, please? This is Joe Biden's voicemail on Hunter's laptop. Hey, palest, dad. It's 8.15 on Wednesday night. The chance can be called. Nothing urgent. Just want to talk to you. I thought the article, at least the thing on online, it's going to be printed tomorrow

in the Times. It was good. I make you clear And anyway, if you get a chance to me call, I love you. Okay. So this shows that the president was lying.

I never talked to him about any of the business deals. I was not aware of it. Well, you just said you read the New York Times. Of course. Now, I mean, we knew you read the New York Times article, and we knew that any father would go, what the hell is going on? But now, we see.

that it wasn't a big deal. He wasn't like, hey, son, I just want to leave it. I just read some of New York Times. I didn't know you were doing all these things. What's all that about? Yeah, it was a good story. He didn't think it hurt them that much. And he said, I think you're in the clear, which

is fascinating. What do you mean? How would you know? Yeah. He's in the clear over what? What are you talking about? I thought you didn't know anything about his business dealings. Huh. That's interesting. So the one story that came out while I was on vacation that made my eyes bleed was the sale of our strategic

oil through Hunter Biden's company to China. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. That was a problem for you? Huh. In what way? Well, on multiple levels.

On multiple levels, I mean, strategic oil reserve, why we'd be selling it to oh, I don't know. Enemy number one. Mm-hmm. And then why would we be selling it through Hunter Biden's connection and his company? Yeah, a couple of things. Why would we sell it at all? And why would you sell it through Hunter Biden's company that he was dealing with?

Fascinating. Yeah, was it 950,000 barrels? I mean, it's a fairly significant amount, too. it's it's uh and that was supposed to be the amount that was going to lower our prices like four cents a gallon something which they are i will say i did see the headline uh gas prices are plummeting down to 486 which is incredible not here i'm in i'm in idaho and they're about four uh they're five 20 wow wow really that's what's yeah that's what's advertised but if you use a credit card, you know, or a debit card, which no one ever does.

Then it's like 547. Wow. It's almost six bucks if you're buying premium. My gosh. I'm starting to see it in the 420s around Texas now. Yeah, it has gone down here somewhat significantly. So instead of paying $120 to fill up my tank, it was only $99.25. Wow.

You kept it under a hundred? I did. Have you run into the gas stations now that are cut? you off at $100? No. I haven't yet, but I've heard about it. Yeah. I've encountered several of them.

You're like, I, okay, I don't know how far I'm going to get on 100. What is it? Three gallons of gas. I need more than that right now. I think there's, I've got a good scam. I want to pull on a bunch of gas stations. I've been thinking about this a lot, which is if you, because a lot of them are old timey, they have this old idea that we have gas that's like $2 a gallon.

when I put my credit card in, it always pre-authorizes it for like $75. So I'm thinking I put $75 in the account and then use the debit card. They'll pre-authorize it for 75. It'll clear. And then I can pump all the way up to 100 to just keep ripping them off every single time over and over and over again. Wow. 25 bucks a pop. Good scam.

Yeah. And 25 bucks will buy me like one loaf of bread. It's going to be great. It's like a free loaf of bread. Wow. Wow. When you can when you can offer, let me tell you something, that will sound great to a lot of people come maybe October. They'll be like, wait, did he just say free bread with someplace?

Glenn Beck. Join the conversation 888-727-B-E-C-K. This is the Glenn Beck program. We're glad you're here. It's Monday. A lot to cover. Next hour I'm going to talk to you a little bit about the economy and inflation and what's headed our way so you can prepare.

Also, I think it's great that we have an anti-corruption czar. I'll tell you about him coming up, because if anybody's going to get to the bottom of corruption, it is. It's our anti-corruption czar of the Biden administration. Is it Hunter? Is Hunter the actual czar? Have they named? I mean, that's the easy way to go. No, no.

See, that's not. That's not. That's not nice. I mean, no. He would never. do that. Well, he would do that. Well, he would only do that because he's senile, which, by the way, the New York Times, Washington Post are beginning to question. Yeah. Is he in control of his bladder and his mind? It's amazing that they both came out at the exact same time with us after a couple

years of ignoring it. It was something they did talk about during the primaries when, you know, they wanted someone else to win. And then when he got the nomination, they all forgot he was old and forgot he was old throughout the beginning of his administration and recently just discovered it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no possible way that Democratic insiders are pushing this narrative to the New York Times. I'm sure the Times just decided to write that story just then as well as the Washington Post. And then a new poll came out today from also the New York Times asking some interesting questions about Joe Biden and the presidency he's currently in the middle of, kind of.

And he's got a 33% approval rating, 33, which is as low as Donald Trump ever was in his entire administration. He has the lowest average approval rating of any president on record in history at this point in this presidency. Look at the word game you just played. Okay. The lowest average. Right. So we're talking about an average.

Average low rating. Yes, that means it. So you got it's average in the first place. And it's an average. So he's not the lowest. He doesn't have the lowest approval ratings. This is not the worst public approval poll ever recorded on any president at any time. That is true.

Is that the standard we're measuring him on now? I think that is the standard. What is the lowest possible standard? Can he get over that? Yes. I guess for the moment, although it's very early, we should point out. But now 64% of Democrats say they do not want Joe Biden to run again. They want another nominee.

64, two-thirds of his own party is saying, please God, don't run again. That's incredible. Because they all turned away. They all didn't listen to the warnings. And now they're seeing it. And now, suddenly, the New York Times and the Washington Post. On the same day, wake up and they're like, you know, he's old? This is the Glenn Back program.

You know, I mean, occasionally, I'll, I'll give them a shot, you know. Actually, when you're, they don't have. When you're, when you're wearing something special?

Yeah, you know, I'm dressing up for the. the evening, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it's a special night. That's when you're like, I get the grape, grip six underwear out. Yeah. Look out. Look out, ladies.

Because then it's, anyway, the, the socks that they have are, our socks that are not going to wear through, wear thin. They're really, really great. You'll be wearing them for years, honestly. They're really great socks. I love them. They're grip six. The quality of all of their products. or made the American way and made here in America.

Trust the hard-earned money in a company that does it right, right here in America. It's grip6.com slash Beck. That's grip6.com slash Beck. Entertainment. Hey, welcome to the program. I've got some good news for you. Well, for most. You don't live in California.

Huh? Am I right? Yeah. California has a law now. You know, they tried to make it illegal to drive an Uber or, you know, work for yourself as a contract worker. You know, those aren't good union jobs. Well, looks like there might be a problem with that,

seeing that 70,000 independent truckers are going to be forced out of their job. And we've got a supply chain problem. shortage of truckers as well. But not to be outdone in California, San Diego is losing 22% of its police force because of the Vax mandate. So again, I say good news, America, you don't live in California. And if you do live in California, I would ask you, why? Why? Richard wrote in, talk about his experience with Relief Factor. He said, I heard about Relief Factor on your program. After several months, I decided to give it a world.

It has changed my life exponentially. My hip used to ache of arthritis so bad I couldn't sleep. After a second week of Relief Factor, I had no more hip pain. I've also had years of constant back pain from damaged discs. Not anymore. The disc pain went away with Relief Factor. Thank you, Glenn. Thank you, Relief Factor.

Richard, you are welcome. Thanks for trying it. The three-week quick start developed just for people like you, 1995. It's a dollar a day. It's a trial pack. Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor, and about 70% of them go on to order more. That says everything you need to know, doesn't it?

Although the Russian economy doesn't seem to be really hurting as much as Joe Biden said it was going to hurt. And on our side, we are now $400 million lighter in the wallet. in the wallet. Biden on Friday announced another $400 million to send to Ukraine to stop. Just, you know, just so you know. I mean, I'm sure this isn't going to bother you in the least. But we now have spent more money in Ukraine since, what, January? than the first five years in Afghanistan.

But I'm sure that money is, you know, well spent, no corruption going on there. It's all going right directly to whoever it needs it there. Can you say that again, please? Yeah, yeah. The U.S. has sent more money to fight Russia to Ukraine more money than the first five years of war costs in Afghanistan. Oh, my God.

We can afford it. You don't even notice it. I mean, yes, that money is worth less. I assume that's not inflation adjusted. Sure, the money's worth a little bit less than it used to be, but that is a jaw-dropping statistic. I haven't heard that. Five years.

We've spent it. we're not even over there. We're even supposedly involved in this war. And we've spent more than we spent in five years on the biggest military operation of my lifetime. You know, this is a little bit of a sidebar on some of the big news of today. But it struck me when I was thinking about this Hunter Biden hack, right? Like Hunter Biden's iPhone gets hacked. All this stuff is getting released on 4chan and all of this.

and it's like the media, of course, is totally ignoring it, not looking at it at all, not pointing it out at all. Obviously, it's vitally important, not because Hunter Biden is a piece, you know, a total loser and a, you know, a piece of crap, which we all knew already. But because this is obviously a real problem with security in this country. I mean, it's the president of the United States is compromised with close family members here. This is a major, major problem. And it struck me as like, sure, this could absolutely be a guy on the right who doesn't like Hunter Biden, could be some hacker who thinks it's funny. There's a hundred things it could be.

But while we're sending $50 billion to Ukraine, it has to be a legitimate possibility that some state-sponsored hacker from Russia was responsible for this. It has to be in the realm of consideration here, right? We all know that they've threatened cyber attacks, and yet our media will not even discuss it. We'll not even acknowledge that it occurred. We are in the middle of sending $50 billion or $60 billion to Ukraine, and we may have just been retaliated against in the middle of this effort. And the media is not even noting that it occurred. So then what you're saying is, hey, America, right?

Exactly the summary of exactly my point. Russia can't do anything to hurt us. Yeah. America. Wow. You know, here's the story, and I know I brought it up last hour, and I'll probably bring it up next hour, and I'll probably bring it up every day until we have an answer on this one.

you know when Joe Biden said he was going to release 30 million barrels of crude oil to help America, you know, so you didn't, you know, it was an emergency sale, you know, our strategic oil preserve, keyword there, strategic, strategic, meaning something we would hold on to we'd have in reserve for strategic purposes, like going to war. which will never happen. So he wanted to release 30 million barrels. Now, I thought that that goes, you know, to the gas stations or wherever. No, no, no. One of the companies that bought it, there were 12 companies, and they were all vetted from the United States, and one of them is Unipak America, which is fanti,

Fantastic. Fantastic. Unitech America, in case you've never heard of it, I mean, who has, is the Chinese Petrochemical Corporation. So it's controlled by the Chinese government. So we sold a million gallons, I'm sorry, a million barrels to China. And I'm wondering, you know, why we did that. Well, I mean, I'm sure, you know, there wasn't in there. SinoPEC, you know, has worked with the Biden's.

Hunter Biden co-founded the private equity firm, BHR partners, and BHR acquired, acquired $1.7 billion stake in SinoPEC. So that's, you know, now Biden took, Hunter took a minority stake in SinoPEC. and BHR. He's only got a 10% stake through a LLC that he owns. It's very complex, hard to follow. It's almost like it's intentionally built that way. But, you know, and he said he was going to sell that. Of course, there's no record of him doing that at all, and nobody will even ask the question. But I didn't realize when Joe said he was going to help Americans, he specifically meant with the last named Biden,

had no idea that that's what. I thought it was like everybody, you know, but we find out now, no, a million gallons went to China. And as if that's not bad enough, it was to a company

that is 10% is owned you know, by Hunter. So that's good. By the way, definition of good. It's an interesting definition of good you have working there. I didn't feel like it was good. But to be fair, you did say a million barrels and it was only 950,000. And that, I think the American people would be fine with that.

Fake news. Fake news. Here's why I'm not concerned about it. Apparently, not everything was a disaster when I went on vacation. The Biden administration has announced it has created a new position to tackle corruption head on. And not domestic corruption. We don't need that. We don't. What? We're talking about international corruption,

which is great because I think we're the ones to preach to the world against corruption. I mean, seriously. Anyway, so they're battling international corruption. And Joe Biden's a guy to do it. I mean, when he was vice president, he was in charge of Ukraine policy. And he bragged about the arm twisting he did there to root out corruption. Of course, it was to root out the guy who wanted to investigate his son in corruption. But that's a, you know, that's just, he didn't know, I'm sure.

But so he's looking into international corruption. And I'm thinking, you know, while I was on vacation, I was thinking, you know, Russia, China, Iran. how are we going to wrangle them into submission? And I didn't see it coming. You know, corruptions are. Corruptions are. And one who has some real experience. Now, Richard Nephew is the guy who is put in charge.

And it's really ironic that a guy named Nephew is being appointed by Joe Biden, you know, in an anti-corruption position. But his name is Richard Nephew, and he's heading up the international anti-corruption efforts. Now, why would you pick him? Why would you? Well, he was working on the special envoy to Iran during the Obama administration, and he served as the nuclear arms and sanctions expert on the team that negotiated the Iranian nuclear deal. You know, the deal that ended up with us flying pallets of $400 million in cash and leaving it in the middle of the airport in the middle of the night in Tehran.

He was the guy who got that deal. So he knows a little something about corruption, I'm thinking. And it's good. It's good. World, you've been put on notice. The Anti-Corruption League is coming. Uh, and, uh, you know, if you're not greasing some of the skids, they might, might have a thing or two to say to you and the rest of the world. Our sponsor this half hour, I've, look at this. I'm an hour in and I'm already just too sarcastic.

American financing from all over the country, fears of a recession have moved from the worry stage to the reality stage. Really?

This is from Reuters. Stu, how much was oil when it collapsed the economy in 2008? It hit $140 a barrel? $140 a barrel. Now, that is because we as a country are not equipped to pay that much for a barrel of oil.

Our entire economy runs at its optimum under $100 a barrel. So anything over $100 sustained is not good. $140 is really our breaking point, or it was in 2008. but now with inflation, you know, adjusted dollars, I'm sure that's $250 a barrel. Now, here's the good news from Reuters. They're saying that oil could go up to $380 a barrel because Russia is now thinking about slashing $5 million barrels a day in retaliation for the price cap that the The West is put on there.

So now you've got Germany and everybody else freaking out a little bit, a little bit, but not us. We're just plowing right. $380 a barrel. Can you imagine how much money this country could make right now if we just became the world supplier of oil and natural gas? we would we could solve so many problems right now but we won't we won't because gas and oil is a really bad thing really uh seemed to do a lot of really good things uh in the past and now that we're struggling with it again and its shortage it seems like it's doing some really bad things doesn't it

well you're ignoring the change and it's a massive change in the amount of climate death over the past 100 years. It's been incredible... Really, tell me the stats on those climate deaths. Well, there has been a large change. I mean, I don't think you deny that. Well, I haven't heard any of the stats, so I know you're a stat guy. So what are the stats of climate?

Global climate-related deaths are down 98% over that time. But just the 98% if it wasn't for oil and gas, Okay. And their emissions, it maybe it would have been 99%, you know. But wait a minute. So that's. So you do have stats and the climate deaths are down by almost 100%. Oh, not all. There are still climate deaths, though. It has not been 100%.

So this, you know, a lot of people might say, well, wait a minute, isn't that entire improvement having to do with fossil fuels and how society has improved in the past hundred years. And sure, you could make that point. But they haven't completely eliminated climate-related deaths. No. Why not? No. You know? I, you know, inequality. You know, there's a big, there's a big climate report due out here soon. And we were talking about this last week. What's the whole point of the climate situation, right? What do you, what's the, what's the whole point of it? Right. The point of it is, Do people die from climate? Right?

Like, that's the real bottom line number. And if I already give you two publications, which one has shown the statistics backing up the 98% drop in climate-related deaths? Is it? Number one, the UN IPCC report about the climate. Have they ever reported that? Or the number two option, Glenn Beck's an inconvenient book. Which one? I would say, I would say it's Glenn Beck's inconvenient book.

You are correct. For some reason, the guy who doesn't care about climate at all is the one reporting the near 100% drop in climate-related deaths, while the UN IPCC doesn't include that graph in any of their reports. And it's interesting that they are talking about climate-related deaths, but they're going to start talking about that. You're going to hear a lot of that beginning this fall when we have starvation beginning to set in all over the world. We are still living off of last year's harvest. This year's harvest is just starting to be canned and sent out. So everything that you have on your shelf or on your supermarket, most of it is last year's wheat, last year's fruit or vegetables. Now we're going to start to see the problem, and it's going to start rearing its ugly head all around the world very soon.

And when it does, they're going to say this is because of, of, climate problems. You're right. They are. This is, they're absolutely going to be, now the farmers will understand that they need to start growing food without all of these petrochemicals. They, and, you know, it only makes it more urgent that we double down on this right now. It's a war. And as you pointed out at the beginning of the program, Sri Lanka went that route and did wonderfully well with it. In fact, they were able to move a bunch, thousands of citizens into their presidential. Palace as a result of that move, which is great for equality. So if you want the less New York Times version of that, the government was overthrown

over the weekend. But climate change, climate change, climate change, climate change. Back in just a second.

Blaze TV. Hey, I just got a new poll in, which is great from the Heartland Institute. It's going to come out tomorrow, tomorrow afternoon. The results are pretty, terrifying. The poll was done by Rasmus and to see how Americans how they feel about the Supreme Court.

Yeah. So here's what we have. Majority of Democrat, likely voters, not just registered Democrats, but likely voters believe the Supreme Court is fundamentally racist, 56%

and fundamentally sexist, 67%. percent. That's not good. That's not good. Further, 53% of Democrat, likely voters, want to abolish the current Supreme Court and establish a new democratically elected Supreme Court with justices chosen by the American people directly. Can you even imagine what a nightmare scenario that is. 39% of Democrats would strongly or somewhat

favor a constitutional amendment that would give the United Nations the authority to reverse U.S. Supreme Court decisions that U.N. members believe violate human rights. I mean, who are the Democrat?

Who are they? I, I, really? I mean, I mean, I mean, I've met this many dumb people, but that would mean that all of the dumb people in America are Democrat, and I don't believe that. But I'm beginning to. I mean, 53%, 56% say it's fundamentally racist. 67 of Democrats say fundamentally sexist.

But 53% of those who are likely to vote say they want to abolish. the Supreme Court and hold elections for the, I mean, why don't we just, why don't we just do America's got talent? We'll just America's got judges. I mean, look, that idea worked really well with the Senate. Look how great our Senate is doing now, now that we elect them directly. It's really improved that process quite a bit. You know, I mean, you can kind of like understand, okay, the fundamentally racist thing, well, I mean, Democrats think literally everything is racist. So, okay, maybe fundamentally sexist. I mean, you know, maybe they just went through

the Roe versus Wade thing. A lot of the Democrats are angry about that. I can cut you some slack on that. Yeah, but like, no one's even proposing that the UN takes over vetoing our Supreme Court decisions and still a giant chunk of Democrats believe that that's the way

we should go. That is remarkable. So 39% of Democrats would strongly favor a constitutional amendment that give the United Nations the authority to reverse U.S. Supreme Court decisions that U.N. members believe violate. That's 39%. Here's the crazy part. Forty-eight percent of all voters aged 18 to 39 favored giving the United Nations the power to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court cases. So you're, wait. You want to give up our sovereignty to that group of people? Can you tell me what that group of people have done? One good thing. Honestly, one good thing. Audrey Hepburn was a ambassador for them.

And I loved her. She was great. That's it. That's as far as I can go. It's okay. It really is amazing. Why would you want to do that? of all things.

You know, I guess at this point they just want to overturn everything because they see the Constitution being upheld. And that's the problem here is that, you know, again, the Supreme Court did not take away a right. They said the right didn't exist the whole time, which is true. And they took the power away from themselves. The Supreme Court initially created this right out of thin air, which is their argument, by the way.

Not my argument. Their argument is they acknowledge it wasn't around during the time of the 14th Amendment because almost everybody had banned abortion at the time of the 14th Amendment. So they can't argue it was the initial intent. They just said later on they believe that with updating standards, it's a living document, and now that power of the 14th Amendment includes abortion. They, the Supreme Court, a bunch of men created the right. And then a later Supreme Court said, yeah, you can't just create rights like that. That's not what you do. So they took the power out of their own hands.

And people are still incredibly angry at them. It really is utterly amazing. So I don't think people understand the second part of that. They took it out of their hands because they said it's not a right in the Constitution. It's not like they said, no, that's not a right. They said that's not a right that the federal government has purported. review over. The federal government has certain

things that they have all the Bill of Rights, all those. That's what the federal government cannot do. They can't violate any of those. Well, they're violating all of those right now. Nobody seems to care. But it's what the government

cannot do. Any other right not listed there goes to the people and to the state. So you might have the right. I haven't heard a good case on it. You might have the right to abortion. But that's for the people and the state to decide, not the federal government. And some state constitutions allow for that right. I mean, again, I think that's morally reprehensible, but that is in

several state constitutions. And you can get those abortions there for the time being, at least. But, you know, the whole point of this, and this is in several of these, it was also in the EPA case and several others of this session, it was a theme. We are not the ones that are supposed to make these decisions. If you guys want to do these things, pass laws. Start passing laws if you want these things to be done. Go within the constitutional bounds of your power and pass laws. Stop acting like we're going to do all this stuff for you. That's not our job.

that's them saying, hey, we aren't going to take the power. We are actually going to cede the power, which for some reason the left wants us to have. We're going to cede it back to the legislators where it belongs. That is what they've been doing over and over again. That's how this is supposed to work. So what's crazy, let me do one more thing here on abortion. If you look at the numbers, more than one in three, 37 percent, said, their state should allow abortion only in cases of rape and incest, 37%.

Another 12% favored allowing abortion only in the first six weeks of pregnancy. And that's when you can detect a baby's heartbeat. You said, combine those two. Yeah, it was 16% you said? 12. 12. So we're up at half, basically. So, yeah, we're at 49% of the country that would say,

Six weeks, that's it. Six weeks or less. Half of the country, yeah. Okay. Another 23% would support a ban at 15%, meaning 72% of the country agrees with what Mississippi brought in front of the Supreme Court. Because they said they wanted a 15-week ban on abortions. Women are more pro-life than men, and I think that's absolutely. absolutely explainable.

It's a woman's body. You don't have a right to say anything. I completely disagree with that, but how many guys are, A, I'll keep the options open. Yeah. And B, and B, then just bullied into not having an opinion. I think that's true. I think the, you know, look, think of this stereotypical situation that you'd think of in these cases. Guy goes out, hooks up with a girl, he finds at a bar, they go back to the house.

They do their thing. They, she's pregnant and he's the one that's like, oh, I don't even want to talk to her again, let alone raise a child with her. So please, yeah, abortion, it's great. Women's rights. Yeah, please. Oh, my gosh, women's right to choose. It's so important to me. What a fundamental right this is.

They just want to get out of what they've done, right? They want to avoid the responsibility. So stereotypically, you assume that the guys would be the ones pushing for this. By the way, I might remind you, it was. seven guys who brought the right to you. So, you know, for all the the thoughts that men shouldn't have an opinion here, the only

person involved in a major abortion case that actually decided it that was a woman really was Amy Coney Barrett. I mean, I guess in Casey, you can make the argument, but still, I mean, Amy Coney Barrett's the one who is involved here. She's a woman. There were no

women involved in the Roe versus Wade decision at the Supreme Court level. Here's the most telling part of the poll. Majority, 55% said they opposed overturning Roe versus Wade, even though 72% would support a law that Roe would have struck down. What's more, 25%, only 25%, agreed that the Supreme Court, as opposed to state or federal lawmakers, should set the standards on abortion. So,

amazing. Wait, 72% support the law that it just overturned, that it just made possible by overturning it. And only 25% say the decision should be in the hands of the Supreme Court, which is what the Supreme Court said. Yeah, so basically what that tells you is that people just don't know what Roe versus Wade means. They think Roe versus Wade means if you overturn it, abortion goes away completely. they of course will learn very soon that that's not the case because 72% support the Mississippi law and you know 25% like want the Supreme Court to make these rules well that's what Roe versus Wade was so you can't support Roe versus Wade and oppose the Supreme Court coming up with the rules

their whole argument in Roe versus Wade was you guys are really kind of at odds here why don't we come in and say well let's make up a standard and that will solve the problem And then Casey came along and they said, hey, that Roe versus Wade thing sure didn't solve the problem. We're going to give you a new standard, a new idea. Now it's going to be viability. And that'll solve it for you guys. And it didn't solve it at all. And then this Supreme Court said, hey, maybe we shouldn't be giving you the standards.

Maybe you guys should solve this on your own through the normal process instead of us trying to come up with some universal solution for everybody. And that's what everyone seems to want in the poll. but they have absolutely no idea what Roe versus Wade is other than people who oppose it are evil. Yeah, and the people who are for it apparently love children and women, even though now New York has gone crazy, absolutely crazy. Not only their gun, their new gun, concealed carry permit. What do you call it? I don't even know, bureaucracy.

It's worse than it was. It's worse than it was now. And there's no way this stands up in court. No way this stands up in court. And New York also said that they need to crack down on the pregnancy centers that are offering life. Because they say they are offering disinformation by saying that it's a baby, already inside of you. And the other disinformation is you're already a mother.

You're carrying your child right now. So you already are a mother. Those are the two pieces of misinformation or disinformation. They say that they have to crack down on. So they are now cracking down. It doesn't matter. New York, you can have all the abortions you want. Celebrate all the abortions.

We'll send you cakes. Just all the abortions you want. That's not good enough. they have to stop those 20% that go to these pregnancy centers and have their minds changed.

It's now estimated to be one of the biggest types of identity theft in the U.S. Thieves combine real Social Security numbers with mismatched or phony names, and they create new identities, which can be used to apply for credit cards, unemployment benefits, even recent paycheck protection program.

anything over the holiday? I did. I saw the minions movie? I did. Oof. Mm-hmm. I was very, very good. Glad I'm out of that phase with my children, but yes. Was it good? It's a phenomenon, you know, with teenagers and some adults dressing

up in like tuxedos and going to see it and then screaming at the minions on stage. Now, I did not go for that reason. I went with my kids. And nobody did that in my particular location, but I guess it's become a big issue for movie theaters. They're having lots of problems with it. I would think that you shouldn't be able to buy a gun if you've done that.

You know what I mean? Sensible restriction. It might be, it might be, you know, maybe you're forced to have an abortion as well because you're clearly not a good parent or a rational human being. Now, this is just off the top of my head. I don't know all of the details of those people. But it sounds like fun. This is the Glenn Back program.

I don't know what it is, but something isn't right. They may even think they know what it is and they're wrong. but they're trying to figure it out.

What is that? What is it that we're all feeling? I contend it is an alarm system. As Thomas Payne said, heaven knows how to attach a proper price to something as celestial as freedom. It came with an alarm system. When your rights are being abused or being taken,

it's like that feeling you have, right before something bad might happen. and you walk into a place and you're like, this isn't right, I shouldn't be here. Yeah, obey that little voice. Obey that voice. Your instinct is right. Something is wrong.

But what is wrong? I want to share something I read over the holiday, over the vacation. And I think, well, I'm just going to read it, and you decide five steps to where we're headed. and see if this is what isn't really the diagnosis of what you're feeling. We do that in 60 seconds. Our sponsor, this half hour, is Goldline.

Recent survey of 22 CFOs at major organizations concluded, a recession could not be avoided. Not a single CFO thinks it's avoidable at this time. Over 40% of them cited inflation as their number one concern. 37% said recession will happen by the first half of 2023. Some analysts believe we've already started into a recession. Okay, so what do you do? Well, last hour, I didn't get to this story.

Let me see if I could find it. Last hour economists look at the price of copper as an indicator that the economy is at a risk of recession. And copper is now plummeting in price. This is something you need copper when you're building and expanding. Copper for all of the electricity and everything else. Well, it's now trading at $3.57 a pound. That's 28% decline in price since the beginning of summer.

That is a sign. Recession is coming. All right. So what do you do? You take some chips off the table. You get out of the stock market, not entirely, but you take some things out of the stock market, you take some money out of your 401k,

or you just take one of your retirement funds and you convert some of it into gold and silver. This is where Gold Line comes in, and I am really, my relationship with Gold Line is, I mean, we've been in business now about 15 years or so, and this is the best coin I think they've ever made. It's a Benjamin Franklin, quarter round, quarter of an ounce of gold.

On the back is the Ben Franklin seal of America that he wanted, which was Pharaoh being closed in on the waters while Moses is up on the banks, and it says rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. This is a collectible, and it is literally worth its weight in gold. It is the gold version now of the Ben Franklin. And it's a quarter round. Right now, with every quarter ounce gold Benjamin Franklin round that you would get, you're going to get 10 of the mind your business silver bars at no cost.

So that's 10 ounces of silver for free with every one of these that you buy. They also have, I think they have these in stock now. This might be a proof, but they have it in silver and they just made them in copper. as well. And copper is currently plummeting in price. So that is a really good thing. And it's the same Benjamin Franklin. So silver, gold, or copper.

You can get the franklins. Right now you'll get extra silver if you, with every quarter ounce Benjamin Franklin round, you acquire at goldline. Goldline.com, goldline.com or call them now at 866 goldline. 866 goldline. So I was reading something while I was away from the Epic Times. And it's the five stages of totalitarianism. And have you noticed both sides are worried about totalitarianism?

The Antifa is saying, you know, it's the religious totalitarian, you know, and Donald Trump, the totalitarian. And that's exactly what the other side is afraid of. Now, I'm not going to argue which side. I just want to give you the five stages of totalitarianism and see if any of these connect with you and see if any of these things have happened yet. The first thing is discontent and rumblings. You can't start a totalitarian government

until you're standing on the ash heap of the government and of the society that was. If you want a new regime, you have to generate dissatisfaction with the status quo. You have to get people to despise the old order. You have to get people to believe that they can't do anything because of the old order. and then present this new thing as a solution to all of those problems. Now, has that happened? Is there someone preaching a new world order? Is there someone preaching new ideas?

Capitalism has failed. Our families are failing us. is there anybody that is suggesting that everything is failing us and seems to want to even see it burn to the ground? That's the first step. The Bolshevik revolution in Russia in 1917, it established a totalitarian regime, and it was very, very bloody, much more bloody than, the revolution in France, which ended in, you know, guillotine. This was, you know, the reign of terror in Russia was beyond anything that you could imagine. The people were disenfranchised.

They no longer believed in the Tsar. They had been defeated in war. They were hungry. The transportation in the city. started to break down, and once your transportation breaks down, that causes food and fuel shortages, and that causes riots. Then Adolf Hitler, he did the same thing. It was bubbling with discontent.

They had the Treaty of Versailles. They had just left a humiliation on the battlefield. The Treaty of Versailles was humiliating. to them. And then they, because of the treaty, they had horrible economics. They went into hyperinflation. And then Germany starts to default on its payments. And now you start to have occupied territories of Germany, etc., etc. Made the people poor, hungry, and angry. Russia, poor, hungry, angry. France, poor, hungry, angry.

None of them believed in the old system. So there's your first step. Are we poor, hungry, and angry? Well, I would suggest that we are angry. We have our share of anger. Are we poor? What time is it? We're on our way to poverty.

Are we hungry? We don't think hunger could really happen here in America because we're the breadbasket of the world, except we're not the breadbasket of the world anymore. The second thing. The false savior and the first revolution. So once people identify the discontent and appeal to that, the totalitarian presents himself as a savior. In stage two, the revolutionary totalitarian enacts a dramatic change. change to solve the problems and discontent of stage one. To find a solution to its debt crisis, the French government called the Estates General

Assembly to advise the king on what to do. Third Estate quickly claimed full governmental authority as a National Assembly. The National Assembly wanted to drop a new constitution that would change the nature of the government to deal with all of the injustices. Does this sound familiar? After the storming of the Bastille, peasants in rural areas revolted against their lords. The National Assembly then declared feudalism abolished and introduced the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. And then you had the execution of King Louis.

No one could stop the ferociousness, if you will, of the bloodbath. Russia, the Bolsheviks took advantage. of the food riots that began in early 1917. When the military began citing with the rioting workers rather than, you know, restoring law and order, Nicholas, the czar, resigned and then was shot. Then the Soviets quickly took control of Russia, and their slogan was peace, land, and bread. And many angry people looked at them. as saviors.

Same thing with Nazism. The third stage, censorship, persecution, propaganda, and ending of opposition. So now you have the savior on board. You have a plan. They're changing absolutely everything.

They want to change the way you talk to one another, your traditions, even your language. They have presented a plan to change everything. But stage three happens after stage two has passed. The old order has been fundamentally changed. So we're there right now.

We are still, I think, having to change some things, but think about it. Our banking system is no longer the banking system we had. Our businesses are not the businesses we had, our way of communicating with each other, not the way we've always communicated, even the understanding of freedom of speech. Our press is fundamentally different, all of it. So the old order has been fundamentally changed, and now the various forces begin to react. The rising totalitarian government faces many enemies, often dubbed counter-reveverbales,

or extremists. In its infancy, in infancy, the new order must struggle to gain more power and maintain that which has been acquired. For this reason, it sets about combating its enemies through censorship and persecution. Is any of this make sense? Does any of this ring like you've seen this movie? As soon as they gain sway over their countries, the first move of totalitarians like Hitler, and Vladimir Lenin was to censor the opposition and put out propaganda. Each of the totalitarian leaders also gained control of education and had a secret police force to monitor or even kill anyone designated as an enemy.

Another strategy was to establish youth organizations to indoctrinate citizens in the state's propaganda from an early age and tear their loyalties away. from family or religion. Religion was almost universally persecuted once these regimes came to power. Huh. I'm not saying we're in stage three. But stage three sounds familiar. Stage four, the crisis.

I'll give that to you in 60 seconds. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation started on 9-11. 2,97 people were killed on the terrorist attack, the biggest terrorist attack on American soil. After that, most of us vowed we'd never forget. Well, many of us have forgotten, but not the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. They have remembered, and they are doing unbelievable good work. When a first responder or military service member doesn't come home and young children are left behind, tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift the financial bird.

and bring the family to stability. U.S. Army Specialist Jason Wheeler is one such hero. He reenlisted after 9-11, but a training accident injury left him unable to walk. After years of trying to manage specialist Wheeler and his family moved into a mortgage-free smart home that was custom designed for his needs. Our nation's heroes, the people who put their lives on the line for our country and our community, need your help. Help the heroes and their families join.

tunnel to towers on its mission to do good in their honor. Donate $11 a month, will you? $11 a month will go a long way with tunnel to towers. It's T the number two, t, as in tunnel two towers.org. T2.t. Dot org. 10 seconds. Station ID. Okay. So you have censorship, persecution, propaganda, and the ending of opposition. Stage four. That prepares the way for the totalitarian government to grasp total control over those under its rule. It consists of a crisis moment, which may either be real or a false flag, something that threatens the nation. By 1793, French Revolution was at a crisis point. Defenders of the old order rose up on all sides to crush the new order.

Austrian and Prussian armies encircled France, while the peasants revolted against the revolutionary government and army. And so in the name of public safety, the government decided to take harsh measures against all enemies of the revolution. They needed more control. This was the task of the Committee of Public Safety, and it suffered from no scruple in its methods. Same thing happened in 1918. Lenin was shot after giving a speech at a factory. While recovering in the hospital, he wrote to a subordinate, quote,

It is necessary secretly and urgently to prepare the terror. This is the red terror known in history. It was the justification of an act of an emergency was the attempt to assassination. The radicals and the counter-revolutionaries were allegedly at the gate, and so they needed extreme measures to deal with this imminent threat. Does any of this sound like language you have heard? Hitler used the state of emergency as well. He used the Rice Dogfire. Real or false? I've read both. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. though. It doesn't matter.

Then stage five, once you hit the crisis, and for this crisis, they need to take control, and they have control of everything, then you get the crisis of stage four as an excuse, and the government seizes absolute control over the lives of its citizens. The regime becomes the enemy of the stages of three and four. It begins brutally enforcing its utopia and ideology on the populace. This stage also sees the greatest atrocities committed against the populace because resistance to the totalitarian regime has to be crushed. The people are defenseless.

They're demoralized. Nothing stands between the regime and its victims. This stage involves mass killings as the regime liquidates any remaining enemies while seeking to control every detail of a state. citizens' life. I don't need to tell you about that. Have we seen these things? Have we seen any of these things? We have social unrest. We have the purging and the destroying of lives, although not literally. We have the tearing down of our history, of our language, of almost everything. We are on the verge of the Great Reset, which will control all, every aspect of your life. If it includes money,

it will control your life. I don't know if we understand freedom of speech and due process and religious rights. They're all under attack. And the emergency, the crisis was COVID. Luckily, I think we're past that. But food shortages are coming all around the world. Is it possible the Great Reset is the authoritarian regime that is going to be pushed down all of our throats?

This is the Glenn Beck program. So I was off for two weeks, spent it in Idaho, Utah, and Arizona and I have to tell you, I come away with an optimism because I saw people as people. I saw people that I'm sure that disagreed with me

and we didn't have arguments and society was working and we were all complaining about the same thing at the gas pump. We still have a few things in common with each other. I think the American people are decent. I think, you know, I've always had this theory. If gas prices went up and the media didn't talk about them, would it seem like the biggest crisis in the world? Well, now we're seeing that.

We're seeing a huge crisis, huge crisis of gas. and the media is not covering any of it. They don't really, they're not covering that. They're not covering food inflation or anything else. And it seems like one of those things we all complain about the, but there's nothing you can do about it. Where if it was a Republican in office, and this was happening, you know they would be blaming it on them,

and then they would give you the solution. You know, they give you at least the problem. and the solution is don't hire that guy anymore. I think this revolution is really on the periphery of most of America. In the coast, it might be the majority. But in the middle of America, I just don't think that this is this revolutionary, this second or actually first anti-American revolution that we're going through right now. I don't think it's

I think it's drummed up and in the middle of the country I just don't think it has support because I feel really good things I was down in St. George I broke ground on something called Liberty Village it's United We Pledge

and I've been talking to these guys for oh I don't know a couple of years about what they're trying to do and they just know that if we don't, if we don't take our kids and, uh, and teach them real history and get them to really enjoy it, we're, we're lost as a nation. And so they've kind of put the stake in the ground, uh, in St. George. Uh, and they broke ground on what will be an amazing American center. It's going to have Mount Vernon, an exact copy of George Washington's home.

It will also have Independence Hall, something that, I mean, quite honestly, I mean, you might be able to afford to go to Philadelphia, but do you want to go to Philadelphia to see it? So it's probably something that most people won't see. And it's really important that we are teaching these values and principles. I'd like you to check out United We Pledge.org and see what they're building because this is something I really want to be a part of. I went down and helped them break ground on it and then Tanya and I made a donation

and more importantly, I think, a donation in our time in the years to come because it is, this is critical. And I think we should build these in all states myself, but, you know, who am I? Let's start with one. United We Pledge. Look for Liberty Village. All right. Stu.

Yes, go on. What haven't we hit that we should hit? Well, I mean, we did talk about the abortion stuff a little bit earlier on with the Supreme Court. But I would want to draw your attention to one little. little separate thing here that relates to the New York Times and their podcast the Daily, which is their kind of

flagship podcast. I think it's either number one or number two podcasts out there. I couldn't, I can't listen to it. It's torture. I just can't do it. It's torture. Especially around this particular issue, because there's almost no awareness whatsoever that anyone could think of abortion as a negative. It's like

it's so overtly positive to these people. It's like, you know, how we would talk about, you know, just generally speaking, freedom of speech, you know what I mean? Something where it's like so obviously a foundational human right and an American right, at least, that you don't even have to, you don't have to make the argument for it. Now, apparently that's reversed. And now you don't have to make the argument for abortion, but you do have to make it for freedom of speech as the left seems to oppose that constantly. That's crazy.

Which is bizarre. But like, you know, it's just like a basic thing. They just acknowledge it. At one point, they're talking about abortion and they're talking about how all of the the Roe versus Wade came stuff became overturned and how that process was a long unfolding process, which is, I think, the main part of this that's interesting to the audience. But at one point, they're talking about it. They're saying that, like, you know, they started passing laws in these states that would

say you can't abort based on sex or you can't abort based on race. And, you know, of course, everyone agrees with that. So it didn't seem like an in a sort of, a, a slippery slope. A slippery slope, right. Slippery slope. Yeah. They kind of were making that point. They're saying it didn't seem like it was a big deal because it wasn't really happening all that often, even though it happens in other countries sometimes. And, you know, so they wanted to make abortion seem bad. They wanted to make it seem like it was something bad. And like they had no concept that people already believed it was bad. In addition to that, it's unclear why it would matter if you would start aborting only little girls or black children if you didn't think abortion was bad.

If it's not a life, if it's not something of life that you're ending, why would you care if they targeted race or gender or any other attribute that you think might. pop up with the child. Why does that matter to you if this isn't a life in the first place? Of course, none of that is discussed at all in the podcast. I was going to say, I have to listen to this because I can't believe they're discussing it. But no, I'm not going to. Just throw away points, Glenn. They don't even acknowledge that there's any sort of hypocrisy there because obviously, so it's okay to kill the baby randomly, but it's not okay to kill the baby if it's a girl or if it's black.

That's against the rules. Like why? It's either a kid or it's not. If it is a kid, you shouldn't kill it at all. Right? That's the point. But beyond all of that, that was not actually the point of the podcast.

The part of the podcast that I thought was interesting for our purposes mainly was they are trying to trace it back. They describe this as the obituary for Roe versus Wade. And of course, the obituary is this, you know, they're looking back and trying to see how this ended. How did this fundamental human right go away, Glenn? And they all bring it back to 2010. And I thought this was interesting.

They went back to 2010 and talked about how that was the germ that started the movement that led to Roe versus Wade being overturned. And what they're talking about is the Tea Party wave election. That the Tea Party wave election was not only just a huge wave election, but also a wave election at the state legislature level, which also then, eventually led to redistricting, which then led to power being in the state legislatures, going towards Republicans, which led to an Overton window shift on the issue of abortion, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But like, I think a lot of times we talk about that moment, the Tea Party moment, is something that, you know, was a really great moment and some good things came out of it,

but kind of it fizzled and it went away, and we should learn lessons on how to do it better next time and all of this. and it's interesting to look at the other side sees that as the germ that wound up culminating in one of the biggest conservative victories of the past century, right? Like the fact that Roe versus Wade has been overturned is something we've discussed before. I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime. No, it is. I've made this comparison over and over again.

It will be remembered in 100 years from now as slavery. People will be like, how could you have done? done that. What were they even thinking? How come they didn't stop it? And I really thought, we'll never solve this. We'll never solve this in our lifetime. And we're not going to solve it, but we at least haven't codified the killing of millions of children. Yeah. I mean, I totally agree with you, Glenn. I never thought I'd see the end of Roe versus Wade in my lifetime. But I was very confident that eventually it would be looked back as the horror show that it is. And, you know, this is only the first step in that process.

If you think about it in a roundabout way, before this, we weren't even allowed to have this argument with any force of law. You couldn't do anything about it. It was just this thing that you had to accept no matter where you were in the country. And all the overturning of Roe versus Wade has done has put it back to the moderate position, right? The position where states get to decide and we all kind of do our thing, the same position we might have on gambling, right?

It's like it's just now everyone gets to figure out for themselves whether they want to do it or not. But like if you kind of look at this situation, you know, if the Tea Party, if all the Tea Party ever accomplished was overturning Roe versus Wade, it was an incredible success. And everybody in this audience and tons of them were involved in it, it deserves a piece of that success and the protection of millions and millions of lives. So while you were listening to that, I was listening to Barry Weiss today. Do you ever listen to her podcast honestly? Yeah, it's one of my favorites, yes. Did you listen to her speech at the university? Yes.

Awesome. Yeah. So you listened to it already? Yeah. Yeah. So good. Awesome. Awesome.

Awesome. And she's talking about the, do you remember when we spoke about the refounders? Yeah. Yeah. We're looking for the refounders. She's talking about that in the speech. She's like, there's a time coming. And she's talking about it to college students.

And she's like, you may be. the generation that that produces new founding fathers. And we have to, we have to look to the future, but we have to, quote, conserve the important principles that built this country. And I'm like, I can't believe this is the Barry Weiss that used to work for the New York Times. Yeah. No, I mean, she was always a, you know, really, really smart and an important voice.

but like I think more important than ever now. I mean, you know, because you. Oh my gosh. She was speaking at the, was it at the University of Austin, which is this new university. They started. You talked to Peter Bogosian about it, I believe, a couple months ago. And, you know, this idea that, you know, we should just pursue the truth and no crazy woke cancellations and you should be able to say things that are uncomfortable and talk them

out in public and all the basic things that we were just saying you shouldn't need to argue for when it comes to freedom of speech. they're saying you shouldn't need to argue for them. You should be able to go to college to learn these things, to fight this out in the battle of ideas, and you don't get canceled for all time for doing it. I mean, that's a pretty basic idea in America, but it's been one that's been totally disregarded lately.

And I love the fact that she was saying, you know, these are the things you shouldn't have to argue, you know, we should just know them, but they're going to teach them how to argue, why they're important, get them to fully understand it. You can't really defend these things that are coming out of colleges now. They don't make any sense. They don't make any sense.

And in the end, they all crumble because they always lead to death. This, not only can you defend, once you have somebody who's teaching it to you, not only you can defend it based on what you've learned, but also all of your life experiences lead to, That is true. And that's exciting. It's really exciting. Back in just a minute.
