I'm so glad you're here. We are going to, we have just such a packed show today. We're going to start with Mr. Bill O'Reilly. I mean, it's practically like a visit from Christ himself, isn't it? He is so pious and holy and, oh no, I was seeing in another Bill O'Reilly.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Bill O'Reilly's joining us with the news of the week in 60. Judy wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory. She said, I'm amazed. My knee was in really bad shape, and the next step was knee replacements. I've been through all the injections, but to no avail. Then I tried Relief Factor. After only a short time, I was able to remove my brace and walk again without pain. I take it every single day, and considering that I still have my original knee, I am singing Relief Factor's praises.
Starting point is 00:03:19 You're living a life of pain, get out of pain. Try this, please. It has four different ingredients that attack inflammation, where ibuprofen 800. Oh, sure. Sure. I wouldn't drive under that stuff. It will decrease inflation in some people, but that attacks it from one direction. This attacks four different ways. Pain is generally caused by inflammation, and that's the biggest problem with our bodies, even, and a lot of things. Even cancer kind of stems back from inflammation. Relieffactor.com. Relieffactor.com. Call 800, the number four relief. Relieffactor.com. Feel the difference. Mr. Bill O'Reilly, how are you, sir?
Starting point is 00:04:02 Welcome to Good Friday. Yes, and like the Nazarene, I am misunderstood. That's the only thing we have in common. Right. Well, you are the guy who wrote the book on assassination, I think. You wrote Killing Jesus, a personal testimony of how you did it by Bill O'Reilly, or something like that. Bill, welcome to the program. What's the big story of the week?
Starting point is 00:04:26 Everything, inflation, the border. It's Putin. He did it all. And Jesus itself. Interestingly enough, on the NOSBIN news last night, Beck, for the first time in 25 years, I laid out why I believe that Jesus is God. I have never done that in any form, anywhere, any time. I am a secular news reporter and analyst. But I did it because of one statistic that rolled in that we are now at an all-time high in America of people who have rejected religion, 30% of the population. And that really startled me because if you know American history, you know that we were, this country was, founded on Judeo-Christian philosophy.
Starting point is 00:05:23 And the Constitution was there to give everyone a chance to practice whatever religion they wanted. And that was different from Europe. And that's why all people from Europe came here. And now a third of the population is saying, you know, blank religion. So I decided because my family, for centuries have been Roman Catholics, you know, we're Irish and St. Patrick went over and converted that country. and I decided to tell people. So I wanted to see if you were interested in me just posing a few questions to you on this Good Friday. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Okay. Number one, did you know that Jesus was not a carpenter? Yes. No, I have no idea. Stu had no idea. I, of course, knew that. Well, Stu's a pet. Let's be frank.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Stu's a pagan. An unwashed TV. So I was taught in school, and so we're most. people that Jesus was a carpenter. It was one problem with that. There was no wood, no trees in Judea. Everybody lived in stone dwellings. Jesus was a stone cutter.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Okay? And his father, Joseph, did that, and then Jesus did it. From about age 16 to 30, they were stone cutters. They were very poor. And then, because of John the Baptist, a real person, Jesus decided to become a preacher. Now, another question. Did you know that being the Messiah back then in Judea was a job, an industry?
Starting point is 00:07:09 Did you know that? I didn't know as a job, but I knew it was very popular to claim you were the Messiah, and there were a lot of people up in the hills that were saying that. And they were down in the deserts and all, and it was, there were about 300 messias. Yeah. And they were running around because they got paid because people would give them food and clothing and shelter and they go from town and town and on the Messiah. Well, they were looking for a warrior. They were looking for somebody who was going to put together an army.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Right. Right. They were oppressed and they were looking for a savior. Sorry, he was running around. But none of these guys got any traction except for John the Baptist. All right. And he didn't really overwhelm it, but he had a base of people. people who believe that he was the Messiah, you know, he kept telling him, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:07:58 And then they arrested the Baptist, okay, because he said that Herod marrying his brother's wife was wrong. And then there's a, well, we're going to get this guy out of the, out of the box, okay? And they took him to jail. Oh, that's history. Hang on just a second. Another thing, and I can prove this to you. if John the Baptist were alive today, he would have voted for Biden and read the New York Times.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Okay. Okay. Reason. Yes. He ate bugs. He ate locus. And that's what they're pushing us into. With honey, though. Come on.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Was it just straight lobes? Well, he was. They dumped a little honey on it. Redistributing the hunds from the bees. The reason that I was able to accumulate all of the, this information was be and and this really really rankles the atheists was because there were two written threads of what Jesus was doing and they were were wrote they were written by spies the first thread was the Sanhedron the
Starting point is 00:09:11 Jewish temple authorities once people started to follow Jesus word got back that this guy was different than the other 300 He was attracting large crowds. Okay? And the thing was that you couldn't hear Jesus, Beck. You couldn't hear him. There was no radio, there was no microphone, there wasn't anything. Whoa, we didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:09:39 You couldn't, you could see him because when he preached, he usually preached in a place that was elevated, like a mountain or a hill, or on the Sea of Galilee in a boat. Right. You could see him, but you couldn't hear. him. So then the logical question becomes, why would thousands at the end of his life, would thousands of people who had to work to eat? So it wasn't like they had discretionary leisure time. All right? These people, if they wanted meals, they had to work from sun
Starting point is 00:10:15 up to sundown. They left their job place to follow this guy around when they couldn't hear him. So the only rational explanation for that is what? He had a personal amplification system. Okay. He had a word like on a fanny pack. The only logical, and write this down, Stu, the only logical explanation, and we are logical people here, is the works, W-O-R-K-S, in quotes.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Now, we do not have the miracles in killing Jesus. It is not a religious book. It is a history. But the spies from the Sanhedron reported back that Jesus was curing people. That was report tied. Where do you find? Where do you find those writings? I know you can find Jesus in Josephus, in his writings.
Starting point is 00:11:22 That is where we found it. Okay. Okay. The Israeli government granted me and Martin Dugard, my co-author, Access. We went to Israel, Dugard did. All right. He saw the records that Josephus basically reported on, and that's how we got it. But there was another thread.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Once these crowds got big, the Romans sent spies as well. Okay? And everywhere Jesus went, there were two sets of spies, the Jewish spies and the Roman spies. They didn't know each other, by the way. They just blended in. Because Pilate, the governor of Judea, was worried there was going to be an insurrection. And so there were Roman records as well. And those records, again, cited the big crowds were excited by the works.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Okay, now the spies didn't believe the works. They didn't say, oh, I saw Lazarus get risen from the dead or a leper cured or a blind man could see. They did not say that. They said, this is what the people are saying. This is what they're coming to see. Okay, again, you go back. Now, it would be impossible for a stone cutter from an, a small town, Nazareth, that had nothing, it was very...
Starting point is 00:12:56 It was a joke. It was a joke of a town. Right. Yeah. To become the most famous person who has ever lived. 31% of the planet's population are Christian. 2.4 billion people today follow Jesus, believe he's God. That is impossible in rational,
Starting point is 00:13:20 thought if there wasn't something else going on. He would have, as all the others did, disappeared from history after he was executed. Now, I could go on and on, but the point that I made on the NOSPen Newslash on, I'm below O'Reilly.com, and anybody can see it, by there. You just go in and you can see my whole 15-minute monologue on this, is that this isn't some, a belief in Jesus is not some mystical thing that plucks out of the air as the atheist would have you believe. Now, I know there are people of other faiths who don't believe Jesus is God, and that's fine. Islam is the second most prevalent religion on the planet, all right? But,
Starting point is 00:14:08 if you are really a person seeking the truth, which, you know, I mean, I don't know, maybe 40% of us do that, I don't know. If you really want to know the truth, you've got to ask these questions. You've got to say, this is a guy who had nothing, nothing. And he goes around and he attracts people, and on Palm Sunday, that sealed his doom. Right. When he walked into Jerusalem, again, historic fact, he was there. It was written down by the scribes in the temple.
Starting point is 00:14:44 There were thousands of people. him. Right. Saw that. They said he's got to go for different reasons. Pilot did not want an insurrection. All right. He feared that because his job was to send money back to Augustus Caesar.
Starting point is 00:15:05 And if he didn't send the money, and Pilot got it at the end, by the way. All right? And the Sanhedron was just petrified that this guy was going to take their job. So they had to get rid of him. And that's what happened. All right. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Thank you for that. I don't know. Have you watched The Chosen yet, Bill? I have not seen that. It is, it is the best Jesus movie story I've ever seen. It is tremendous, just truly tremendous. But, you know, it looks at all of those things. And, you know, people, you're exactly right. People think that Jesus is like maybe some made-up guy because they haven't done their homework.
Starting point is 00:15:49 even Islam believes in Jesus and believes he was a a prophet Here's the thing And this is important The media in America Which is the carrier of information
Starting point is 00:16:04 And always has been Yeah Okay They don't like Organized religion Yeah So you will You'll hear it on your programs
Starting point is 00:16:17 And on my programs because we're people who believe. We're believers. But you know this because you've been in the media, what, 85 years now? An amazing run for you. Everybody knew when I worked at ABC and CBS and then later Fox News that I went to church. They always knew that I went to Mass. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Now I wasn't running around going, oh, I'm a holy guy. I'm the biggest sinner around, okay? but they knew that I had this fundamental belief and they that was like weird. I was like strange. Oh, and I mean, and people would come up to me. And wait a minute, how can you possibly believe this? And I look at them and I go, if you really want to know the truth, you start to analyze the historical fact. It doesn't lead you to any other conclusion.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Yeah. Even I think now you look at the scientific facts, and there's just, I mean, you know, we don't even know how the body works yet. We don't know how the brain works with all of our high tech, and we just think this just evolved without some design. To me, it's crazy. All right, Bill, hang on just a second. Back with more of Bill of Riley. American financing NMLS-182334. www. nmLS Consumer Access.org.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Here's the thing. If you own your own home, how much are you paying for your credit cards? Your credit cards. Your credit cards are probably about 19% interest right now. And that is going to go up. They're anywhere, the average is about 19 to 22%. That is in the territory of not being able to pay it back. Because it's compounded every single month. So what are you doing? You got to get out of those credit cards. if you have a mortgage, your home, right now, the value of your home is probably up around 20%. So you don't have to reset your whole mortgage. Just take what you have in those credit cards and get a consolidation loan and get those credit card interest rates down to 4, 5%, as opposed to 20%. Save yourself a ton of money.
Starting point is 00:18:35 It's American financing, 800, 906, 2440, 800, 900, 906. 2440 American financing.net. 10 seconds, station ID. So, Bill, I got a couple of things. I just want to run through with you just to get your take on it. First of all, Biden is now talking about, you know, ethanol and, you know, uping ethanol, which will send corn prices through the roof and affect us in all kinds of things. Are people, I mean, I just saw a poll.
Starting point is 00:19:17 People are starting to believe this is Putin's fault. No, I doubt it. I think that Biden derided himself and his administration by having the Putin price rise. And the proof of that is the two polls that came out this week. After that was said, Quintipiac and CNBC, both have them down below 35% approval rating, which I've never seen before. And I think people know that this is totally unbelievable. If you think that Putin cause inflation in this country, and I know it's a good Friday, I'm trying to be charitable today, you're an idiot. You're an idiot. Okay?
Starting point is 00:20:00 You are a jester. A jester. You should wear a two-toned hat and go in and do somersaults, okay? Because that's so insane. Yet, Jen Saki, I'll do the Putin pride rise. Oh, no. And then blaming it on Governor Abbott also, because he's checking trucks. at the border, and he's slowing things down.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I wouldn't do that, by the way. I think that's going to hurt you and everybody else in Texas, because that is going to raise immediately the cost of fruits and vegetables coming in. Now, I know why he's doing it. Yeah. I don't embarrass the Biden administration because there's a record amount of drugs, narcotics coming across the border, and obviously Biden wants, for some insane reason, unfettered foreign national access to this country.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Yeah, well, It is actually better for us here. The fentanyl problem in Texas is just outrageous. I have two minutes. I want to hit a couple of other things. Your thoughts on China and Shanghai, the lockdown. Well, I think people have to understand that in these governments, whether it's Russia, whether it's China, Cuba, North Korea, that life doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:21:16 So if you have COVID and you live in Shanghai, 24 million people in that area, you're going to go to a concentration camp. It's unbelievable. That's where you're going. Okay, so if you don't get it now, and here's another factoid your audience will like. I don't know if you will, but your audience will.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Who makes $5 billion a year from Shanghai? Disney, Disneyland Shanghai. Hello? Well, you know, it's so apparent because you go on, and you see the videos that have been, you know, made it past all of the great walls of China. And you see what's happening in Shanghai. And then you realize no national news source is putting this out. No, no, ABC, NBC, CBS, none of them are because they've all been bought and paid for by China.
Starting point is 00:22:04 And here's the real scandal. Minnie Mouse got COVID. She's in a concentration cap. Is he really? Yeah, Minnie's there. Yeah. I mean, that's a hook. Is that not a hook?
Starting point is 00:22:13 That does not do something there? One more thing. Ukraine. Now the CIA director, CIA director is saying, nuclear weapons are probably being considered by Putin. Are we, are we, is this, I mean, are we going to war, Bill? No, not at this point. It depends how insane Putin is. And really nobody knows that at this point.
Starting point is 00:22:39 So you can't totally discount it. But what good does it do for the CIA chief to, say that? I don't know. Bill O'Reilly, his new book is coming out on May 3rd. It is Killing the Killers, the Secret War Against Terrorist. It's coming out from Bill O'Reilly. Bill, have a great and holy week and weekend. God bless. The Glenn Back Program. We're going to talk about the craziness with Elon Musk coming up in just a second. The creature from
Starting point is 00:23:12 Jekyll Island. You know what that is? If you, or someone that knows about the Fed, you know that that is a classic book about the organization and how the Fed came together on Jekyll Island. The Tuddle Twins have a book based on that called The Creature from Jekyll Island. And this is made, you know, kind of almost in a cartoon form so your kids can understand it. This is one of the most important books you can read today with your family. And I ask the Tuddle Twins people, could you make this one free? This is one in a series, but just get this. This one for free.

Starting point is 00:24:47 good morning i'm great uh i want to talk to you about what's happening to elan musk so he goes out he buys just under 10% of Twitter. He starts talking about, hey, you know, we can we can free people up. Let's stop censoring people. The media goes crazy about some billionaire that just wants to change the world. Hello, George Soros. Just wants to go ahead. Jeff Bezos.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Or Jeff Bezos, yeah. And he's a danger to free speech. That's what they're actually saying. He's a danger to free speech. So yesterday we find out, this is for, from Charles Gasparino. As Elon Musk offers to buy the rest of Twitter, a legal source tells Fox business
Starting point is 00:25:31 that the SEC and the Justice Department have now launched what is described as a joint investigation into a myriad of Musk regulatory issues primarily involving Tesla. He is also now not the largest shareholder because yesterday, Vanguard, which is the second in line for the top of the heap for the Great Reset, Vanguard came in and bought up a ton of shares.
Starting point is 00:26:02 I mean, what is happening? Oh, and one other thing, the people in Twitter have decided to sue him for violations of, you know, not revealing fast enough that he was buying these shares. They are terrified. They should be terrified. I've said several times that Trump, they thought that Trump was the river, but he was the dam. What you're seeing is without President Trump in the White House, the consequences of the benefits of President Trump,
Starting point is 00:26:33 which is an understanding of the enemy class and an acknowledgement that people have to go on offense. And sometimes just going on offense simply means disrespect and invading spaces that they have regarded and decreed as sacred. This started back. I can give you an example. When Jack Posobic and Laura Lumer invaded the stage in New York, people don't even remember this anymore. I think it was Citipank was sponsoring Julius Caesar play in Central Park, New York City Central Park, where every night President Trump was ritualistically murdered on stage. And when Pesobic and Laura Lumer crashed the stage in front of the audience, this was regarded as heresy and like, how could you do this?
Starting point is 00:27:19 How could you interfere with our play where we're murdering the president at Central Park? You people are monsters. So it's really a wonderful thing when spaces that they said, this is our house. We got rid of President Trump from here. We got rid of this person, that person. We silenced the Babylon B. Now they're not feeling safe in their space. They're in retreat, and they don't know what to do themselves.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Because for a century, the Republican Party, has played defense. And Elon Musk is no Republican. For the first time, people are playing offense and they're losing their minds because that's not how the game is supposed to go. Correct. So what is, what do you think, how does this end for Elon Musk and for Twitter? I mean, basically their idea, the slogan of the Great Reset set should be, if I can't have you, no one will. And that's what they're trying to teach, Elon.
Starting point is 00:28:23 You are not stepping out of that box. We have the financial resources to cripple you. And if that doesn't work and shame in the public square doesn't work, well, then we have the government as well. Yeah, I've said several times, and I'm sure you agree, Glenn, it's often or almost always preferable when authoritarian regimes have to show their hand. Yes. It's much more expensive for them. in every way, especially because moderates who don't really have a stake in the game and don't care one way or another, people just apathetic. When they see the heavy hand of government
Starting point is 00:28:59 going down and they see things like this happening, it's going to alienate them and be like, wait a minute, these are not nice people, these are nasty, aggressive people. People we also saw it a couple months ago when overnight, Joe Rogan went from a nasty purveyor of misinformation to a racist. It was an overnight thing. And they tried to destroy. him that way and it didn't work. And everyone forgot that it didn't work. They tried to get rid of Joe and they had nothing to show for it. So Elon Musk is a very, very bright man. He's a tight cookie, tough cookie, excuse me, I'm sure he's had to deal with regulatory nonsense before. I'm sure a lot of people in Washington also quietly have his back. So this is going to be very
Starting point is 00:29:38 interesting to see how it unfolds. And Elon's not alone. There's lots of people in his circles or maybe two or three degrees removed, people like Peter Thiel, who know the nature of the game, people in San Francisco, people who are now in Austin, who are realizing this is what we're up against and this is how we're going to play. And I got to tell you, if you're the guy who thinks you're going to put people on Mars, when you play, you play to win. You're not some dilettons. All right. Let me switch topics. Let me go to your neighborhood in New York where you used to live. And what happened in your former neighborhood? Yeah, it's been a rough couple of months to get personal Glenn. Because first of all,
Starting point is 00:30:19 the city where I was born, Levov and Ukraine was being hit by missiles. Then the apartment where I lived in New York for 16 years, I was half a block away from that train station, got shot up. And then the next train stop, just yesterday, or two days ago, or rather, a kid was shot in the street. I've made this point, you know, it was very hard for me to leave New York. I've lived there all my life. I still don't know how to drive. I moved to Austin over the past summer, as many of your listeners know. I don't think people realize just how bad these cities are going to get.
Starting point is 00:30:49 And if anyone, because there's no mechanism of turning them around. So if anyone out there, and it's, what else is interesting is once you leave these places, you know, I moved to the nation of Texas, looking at this footage, it feels like I'm looking in another country because that was not the New York I knew. Like obviously 9-11 happened, things like that. But in the sense of, you know, just this carnage and knowing, knowing to do. And I point out the police were pretty much helpless to even catch him. It had to be some random kid on the street.
Starting point is 00:31:16 And also he turned himself in. And the other thing that's disturbing, which I wonder if you've touched on elsewhere, is every outlet at first mentioned his race, and then they edited to remove it, including the New York Post, which is largely right of center. I have no understanding of why this is. Wait, they edited after it ran? Yes, yes. I thought I was hallucinating, and someone showed me the cashed footage. The New York Post originally had the identification, which everyone else had, 5-5, blackmail, 170 pounds and then he changed
Starting point is 00:31:48 to 5-5 male. I have the clips. That is insane. Yes. This is a manhunt for someone who shot up a subway station and thankfully no one got killed. Yeah, the New York Times, one of the stories I read, did not identify him as African American, but just identified his writings and videos
Starting point is 00:32:04 from the web as bigoted against blacks. That was it. It was just bigoted against blacks and especially black women. So no mention of all the, you know, black nationalist supremacist type of stuff he had all over the place none of that and then didn't even identify him as black so I mean if you're reading that you're thinking for sure this is some white supremacists who's just bigoted against black people they never they they just
Starting point is 00:32:29 intentionally I tell you out do you remember when uh Riaz Patal came by and the first time when we started to get to know him he was a guy who was on the left he was from Hollywood and we sat down with him and because he was trying to understand what what was going on. And he started to, the world started to crack open for him because he was like, wait a minute, wait, what happened? And we sat down and I just put a chalkboard together and I said, do you know this story? No, that didn't happen. Yes, it did. Here's, here's the story. This, this, this. We gave him like 20 different stories. He had never heard of them. I mean, you are just in the dark. If you read the New York Times and watch CNN, you are the least informed human alive.
Starting point is 00:33:18 But it's also disturbing to me how this has become pervasive across media. And in fact, there's several news outlets, I think including the Associated Press, where the explicit policy is, we are not going to report on the race of a suspect if it's going to have people reach racist conclusions. And my concern is this is a manhunt. So if people reach racist conclusions, That's one thing, but we need to find this person who was on the loose who had bombs at the time. And you know what? The FBI had this guy. They interviewed him 19 different times.
Starting point is 00:33:54 But, you know, they were too busy. I don't know, going woke and looking for white extremists. You know, what do you say? We just look for extremists. Let's look for people that are threatening to kill people online. threatening to kill people in their neighborhoods. Let's look for those people. I don't give a flying crap what their race is.
Starting point is 00:34:19 You know, YouTube, all of his videos were up. All of them. Can you imagine, Michael, if you would have said anything like that, you would have been gone immediately and erased from public record. Well, I'm an anarchist, so I've said some pretty bad things. But in all seriousness, how about we just enforce the second. amendment because if there was several honest citizens on that subway station who were packing heat things would have ended up very very differently that subway station obviously i'm very familiar with
Starting point is 00:34:51 it i've taken every day for 15 years there's only one exit and it's a major hub there's four train lines that go through there so this could have been much much worse even from the smoke alone i will tell you it is phenomenal it is a miracle that this guy goes in and shoots what 35 times and no one is killed? I mean, Michael, you've been on that subway. I've been there. I mean, that's almost impossible to do.
Starting point is 00:35:20 And just you with the smoke inhalation, I mean, he had several bombs and the gum jammed and so on and so forth. Yeah, it's a very, very lucky thing. And we're very fortunate. And it's also we're very fortunate that he didn't leave the subway and just starts shooting somewhere else. I mean, there's the number of stations out there is just dozens. So this
Starting point is 00:35:36 is also very disturbing in terms of other types of terrorism, because this, he showed very clearly how easy it would be to do something like this. And God help us if someone else gets the same idea. Thank you so much. Do you celebrate Passover? Are you religious at all? I'm not religious at all. I'm not an atheist, though. Okay. Are you an agnostic? No, I'm not a coward. No. All right. God bless you, man. Thank you so much. Take our guys. Have a great weekend. Bye-bye. My pillow. Some people like to go home at night and, you know, do some Netflix and chill. Me, I like to go home, lie down, and go to sleep and go to sleep and not toss and turn for an hour before you sleep.

This is how I would do it. This is exactly how I would do it.
Starting point is 00:37:59 I might have different causes and things, you know. Like I go to Mars, probably for the same reason, not global warming, but his main reason on why he's doing it so quickly is if homo sapiens, if it's important to preserve homo sapiens, get them off this planet by the end of the decade. I believe that too. But the idea that he's just like, yeah, we're going to Mars. Well, you got to call NASA? No, just going to build a spaceship. Yeah. just does what he wants. He does what he wants. And, you know, yesterday, Vanguard disclosed that it
Starting point is 00:38:31 owns now 82.4 million shares of Twitter or 10.3. So he's no longer the main, the biggest shareholder. And we don't know that. Remember, the 9% number is from a disclosure that's old. So, like, we may have 15, 20% of it right now. We don't know. We don't know. So he made the offer to buy Twitter outright yesterday, saying that it needed to be transformed into a private business to thrive again. And so he said, I'll buy it for $40 billion. The Twitter shareholder, Saudi Prince, Aloid, who is a nightmare, rejected Musk's bid. And he says, no, we're not going to, I'm not going to sell. During a TED talk earlier yesterday, Musk was asked, what would happen if the board doesn't
Starting point is 00:39:23 except you said you're not going to go any higher. Is there a plan B? Must just smiled and said, yes, there is. I can't wait. Hopefully it involves launching the Twitter board into space. And by the way, Twitter should just, I mean, I know this isn't like the main consideration,
Starting point is 00:39:46 but Twitter should just accept this offer. It's way above what they're worth. Oh, but they should. Just take it. It's the best thing for their shareholders. They don't have any idea how to get money out of that company. And it's been a complete with all of the free advertising. There has never been a product in American history that has received more free advertising than Twitter.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Every news broadcast, every celebrity, everybody's on it all the time. Everybody's putting it in mainstream media all the time. And yet, these guys barely trickle out cash out of that company. Not only would Elon Musk go in and make. it better for free speech, which is what everyone is talking about. But he'd also make the company, he would create so much money out of the foundation of that company. They don't care. This is about this is again, I go back to the Great Reset. I think the slogan should be if I can't have it, no one will. They don't care. This is not about anything other than controlling the narrative.
Starting point is 00:40:48 It's true. And, you know, Twitter has outsized impact on our politics for, you know, as we've mentioned many times, nobody uses this. Nobody uses Twitter. Nobody uses it for politics. I mean, the people that we talk about on Twitter who are constantly tweeting about politics is like one-tenth of one percent of the population. It's almost no one. These other social media companies are much bigger and are much more widely used. This is what the Twitter board said. One of the people remaining anonymous said yesterday. this is the thing that journalists use to get stories. And they don't want to be working for a musk company. And they don't want to be working like calling sources. They just want to search Twitter. And that's how they do all their work now. That's why they like it.
Starting point is 00:41:41 So every day I get up, you know, I run eight miles. Okay, that's not true. Actually, I run 10 miles. But I don't count the first two because I'm running with a jump rope. Oh, oh. Anyway, then I lift weights for about an hour and a half. And boy, I work up a powerful sweat. That's why athletes like me use sweat block.

Starting point is 00:45:44 It's G-E-N-C-E-L-com. So halfway through the Civil War, we were losing badly. And Abraham Lincoln had a great awakening in himself. And a proclamation was passed by the U.S. Senate. I want to read it to you and tell me it doesn't fit our situation today. A proclamation by his excellency, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, for a day of humiliation, fasting, and prayer. Whereas the Senate of the United States devoutly recognizing the supreme authority and just government of Almighty God in all of the affairs of men and nations has, by resolution, requested the president to designate and set apart a day for national prayer and humiliation.
Starting point is 00:46:42 And whereas it is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence. upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and their transgressions in humble sorrow. Yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truths announced in the Holy Scriptures, and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed, whose God is the Lord. we have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven, but we have forgotten God.
Starting point is 00:47:25 We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, multiplied and enriched and strengthened us. We have vainly imagined in our deceitfulness of our hearts that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. intoxicated now with unbroken success. We have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us. It behooves us then to humble ourselves before the offended power,
Starting point is 00:48:05 to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness. Abraham Lincoln I asked the Senate to pass that resolution just, what, two months into COVID. They wouldn't do it. Today, words like humiliation and repentance are completely misunderstood. For some, they're associated with shame, guilt, fire, brimstone. And for others, it's just a get out of jail free card on your way back to doing whatever it is you want at the strip club. but it is neither one of those things.
Starting point is 00:48:46 In Hebrew, the word for repentance is Teshuvah, which literally means to turn. It's about changing what you do, just as much as it is about the condition of your heart. When we repent, we turn around and start over in the other direction, the right direction. And that's not easy. I mean, it takes incredible faith to hummed. humble yourself and turn and start walking in a different direction. It's not easy, but it's possible. At the beginning of the series, I started it by talking about what was happening in France at the revolution.
Starting point is 00:49:29 But now, let me take you to the other example where it went wrong, where people said, God is dead and filled that void with something else. And it was Nazi Germany. No matter what you read or what you hear, the left has distorted the Nazis. Hitler was not a Christian, but he knew he couldn't take out the Christian church head on. So what did he do? They infiltrated from the inside, eroding its values and its relevance from within. Over an afternoon lunch in his headquarters in 1942, Hitler said,
Starting point is 00:50:11 I quote, I do not care in the slightest about the articles of faith. The organized lie has to be broken in such a way the state becomes the master. You can't rush things. It has to rot away like a gangrous limb. We need to get to the point where only idiots stand behind the pulpits, and only old women sit in front of it, and the healthy youth are with. us." End quote. Hitler expected Christianity to slowly suffocate and die under the duress of the state and
Starting point is 00:50:50 in its own inaction and irrelevance. But in the meantime, he would use that institution to spread his propaganda. It took him about six months before they took the picture of Jesus off of the altars in Germany and replaced the savior with the new savior, Hitler. Unfortunately, they spread it, mostly thanks to the movement called the German Christians. Under the influence of the German Christians, the church went to work right away to rinse that Jew right out of Jesus' hair. Spread the good news of Hitler. German pastor Herman Grunner preached,
Starting point is 00:51:33 Hitler is the way of the spirit and the will of God for the German people to enter the Church of Christ. What's truly shocking is that the church. German Christians were at work in the church before Hitler took power. They were priming the congregations by slowly shifting the focus away from God in the Bible and creating a new Aryan God. German Christians insisted that loyalty to the Nazi agenda was, at its core, Christian and a matter of faith. Hard to imagine that everyone behind the pulpit or sitting in the pews agreed with this, but so many said, nothing. Miraculously, some did finally break their silence.
Starting point is 00:52:18 It was Martin Niemolar. He sat back, actually, as Hitler installed his dictatorship. He didn't intervene until the German Christian started to arionize the Bible and purge the Bible of all Jewish elements, including the entire Old Testament. See, if this sounds familiar. They were reimagining the Bible. They were reimagining Jesus. he became a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, anti-Semitic Aryan.
Starting point is 00:52:49 This is when Niemuller had enough. He helped organize a movement called the Confessing Church, which challenged the German Christians and insisted that Nazism not make demands of the church itself. Although Neemolar was primarily focused on Nazi intrusion into the church, other prominent leaders of the movement called for the followers to challenge Nazism on every front. One of those guys was a man named Dietrich Bonhofer.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Bonhofer was the guy who diagnosed the German church and said they suffered from a theology of cheap grace. They wanted redemption, but not really repentance. They wanted to live in any way they wanted and wear the covering of God like a cheap rain poncho. then the Third Reich collapsed and the gods of the copy book headings returned and the church
Starting point is 00:53:50 had no idea how to pick up the pieces. The rest of the story in a minute. Joy wrote in about her experience with Relief Factor. She says relief factor is absolutely wonderful. I'm able to sleep through the night pain free. It's everything, Glenn, you say it is. I've had severe neuropathy for several years as well as a hip that was broken. I feel like a new woman now. I enjoy the freedom from the pain. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And thanks also to my son who finally talked me into getting it. All right. If you really want relief, if you've tried everything else, we just try this for three weeks. 1995, it'll give you, it's a dollar a day. It will give you three pills a day, or actually, I think it's 12 pills a day. and you just take one packet, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And I'm telling you, it worked for me. And about 70% of the people who try this trial pack for three weeks go on to order more month after month. So just try it. 800 for relief.

Feel the difference. 10 seconds station ID. Reconstruction quickly turned punitive towards Germany. Life for the Germans under Hitler was hell. But the hell continued after his failure. The German people had been the victims of
Starting point is 00:55:33 unprecedented psychological capture. And for those who woke up, they were not only left with the collapse of their nation, but they were shouldering the most unbearable guilt. The international church leaders had a decision to make, would they ostracize the Germans as their political counterparts had? Should the people of God handle these obscene circumstances the same way or differently? The church like every German needed a new start. So the believers did the only thing they knew would work. After the Third Reich collapsed, the gathering of Christians took place October 19th, 1941 in Stuttgart, Germany. At the gathering, Bonhofer was praised for his unwavering faith. He wasn't there. He had just months before been executed in a concentration camp.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Pastor Neemolar preached that the Nazis alone were not to blame, but the church itself, not because they were Christian, but because they had abandoned their Christianity. Would the Nazis have been able to do what they had done if church members had truly been faithful Christians? From this event sprang forth the Stuttgart Declaration of Guilt on behalf of the church. And here's what it said. With great pain, we say, by us, infinite wrong was brought over many peoples and countries. We did fight for long years in the name of Jesus Christ against the mentality that found its
Starting point is 00:57:07 awful expression in the national socialist regime of violence. but we accuse ourselves for not standing to our beliefs more courageously, for not praying more faithfully, for not believing more joyously, and for not loving, more ardently. Following the collapse of Hitler's regime, the faithful Germans professed that they had failed as a body of believers. Their failure was extraordinary, but not so much because this happened. time and time again we all fail on extreme levels more than we care to face but what was extraordinary was their ability to look at their failure in the face and choose to change they just did it too late the Christians of Germany were called to repent on their knees and miraculously some answered that call here's why I wanted to
Starting point is 00:58:15 end this series with this right now we have have bastardized our faiths. Our faiths are silent. Some have been infiltrated by wokeness. As we told you yesterday, wokeness is a cult. It is a religious movement to a false God, a God that puts you at the center of the universe, but the universe is meaningless. Your truth, not the the truth, your truth, but that truth is worth nothing. Are we going to go down in history as a group of people that failed to see the answers, even though it was staring them in the face?
Starting point is 00:59:15 Are we really prepared to write our declaration of guilt in the future? We should start preparing for it now. People of God, do you want to have to apologize for watching evil rise in our nations all across the world and say nothing? Religious leaders, can you continue to be silent as God and goodness is attacked from all angles? Is your job really? Is that really what you worship? Or will you do the things that Neemolar did or the things that Bonhoeffer did?
Starting point is 01:00:01 America, have we hit rock bottom yet? Please tell me we have. I'm an alcoholic and my mother my mother committed suicide she was also an alcoholic addicted to prescription drugs as well her bottom was death and you can't stop anybody from
Starting point is 01:00:20 I mean if you're suicidal and that's your bottom and you're hooked on drugs or whatever and that's your bottom nobody can stop you but I hope our bottom is not that are we there yet because this isn't working and everybody knows what we're doing right now is not working.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Conservatives are supposed to conserve the best ideas from the past. Not all of it, just the best parts. Have we done that? If we continue on this path of least resistance of non-action, I shuddered to think what our letter of apology will sound like. I wrote one just to have it handy. I apologize for standing by. millions of unborn babies are slaughtered.
Starting point is 01:01:15 I said nothing when activists tried to re-segregate our nation. I even helped sometimes. Israel was slandered and attacked and I ignored it. I didn't protest when my church was shut down, but the liquor store was allowed to open. I was apathetic to the government trampling on my congregation's rights. I couldn't really be bothered to comment as young people permanently mutilated themselves after being told that they were born in the wrong body. I outwardly participated in every destructive social movement to protect myself.
Starting point is 01:01:55 I leaned on my own understanding. I acted in my own self-interest. I did what everybody else was doing. I didn't have the faith to resist. I lacked the spiritual countenance And because of my inaction The body of God became crippled The people lived without love And died without hope
Starting point is 01:02:19 I was not part of the Calvary When it finally came I apologize And may God forgive me I don't want to ever Ever have to say those words And mean them Maybe you should write yours today
Starting point is 01:02:39 and then do what Abraham Lincoln said, become humble. Know who the real power comes from. Repent. Because that's what Easter is all about. This is the most holy holiday of all holidays for Christians. It's not Christmas. Great, the baby was born, prophecy fulfilled. That's great.
Starting point is 01:03:09 But what he did 33 years. later in giving us the opportunity to begin again. But we as an individual, we as a country, cannot begin again unless we are humbled and have hit our bottom and say, I surrender. My way has not been the right way. I tell you now the kingdom of God is at hand. In the end, we all have the right, the privilege. and the responsibility to choose our own path,
Starting point is 01:03:51 there's not going to be a single person left on the sidelines. As Bonhofer said back then, not to speak is to speak. Not to choose is to choose. And as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. More in a minute. The movement to start a parallel economy has all,

Starting point is 01:06:02 But welcome, David. Hey, Glenn. I want to talk to you a little bit here. on a good Friday and Easter weekend. We've been, I don't know if you've heard the segments all week. But we started looking at America's God. We're not, it's not that we don't have enough religion. We have more than enough religion.
Starting point is 01:06:26 It's just a false God. It's wokeness. And we've got to change that. The big problem here on a great awakening. is our churches are asleep. Do great awakenings happen when are they led by the church or are they led by the people? It's interesting. They're led by individuals usually and the church is usually the one who opposes the most.
Starting point is 01:06:53 Isn't that amazing? And so like you take a George Woodfield, I mean, he is a minister, but he preached outside primarily first because nobody to let him inside. And so he needed to preach outside later because he had 10,000,000 of the crowd. so you needed something. But at the first, man, they hated him and they opposed him. And the same with Charles Finney and the second great awakening, the same with Lorenzo Dahl and Charles Clay and all these other names.
Starting point is 01:07:18 And these awakenings are always the first one led to the American Revolution. Yeah, it led to it. And it's really kind of interesting. What it really did was it gave people backbone and they started standing for what was right. And then the other side responded and came after them. Right. And so it's not like they started. started anything, they just finally got some courage and had some convictions and stood for it.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Because I think most people, and that's the problem I think with most churches is I do not want a church to tell me who to vote for. I do want information. I do want my church to say, look, here's what the scriptures say, which leads you to this value. How do you apply that value across the board. Is this person, and you don't even have to get into the people's names, are these people following these values? Yeah, you really want the church, as you're saying right there, to help you think through things, to really give you a thinking process. Now, I'm going to say, I don't have any problem at all if the church wants to tell me who to vote for. And I do that from a constitutional standpoint, because I don't want a church thinking it has less rights
Starting point is 01:08:27 than a union has. Yeah, no, no, no. I'm saying, as my personal view is, you know, I just gosh, I just don't want everything to be political. However, I do want them to do, and I'm... I want clarity. I want clarity and boldness from them. Right. They preached about abortion. They preached about, I mean, most of the stuff that is in our Constitution is directly
Starting point is 01:08:51 from scripture or directly from preachers that had made that concept popular because it is in the Bible. Well, if you take the Declaration of Independence, historians have documented that every single right sit forth in the Declaration of Independence had been preached from the American pulpit by 1763. So 15 years before the declaration, every right in the declaration already been covered in the pulpit. And that's why John Adams says our pulpits have thundered. And he listed a bunch of preachers by name who were very specific on that. But you take any right in the declaration, it was already seen as a biblical right. So is this why we feel like our churches are so empty? Oh, they are empty. It's interesting. If you tell, and I'm speaking as a Christian,
Starting point is 01:09:36 and we know lots of other faiths, great. Speaking as a Christian in 19, or in the year 2000, 85% of Americans professed to be Christians. That's their self-identification. Last year, it was 65%. So it's a 20% drop in 20 years. And when you poll the people who left the church and say, why did you leave? Two out of three said because it has no relevancy. I get nothing that can live with on a daily basis. And I totally agree with that. I mean, when I look back at what the pastors did in those days, and I brought in a bunch of stuff out of the collection. And these are all sermons. These are all sermons. And these are all sermons. And by the way, these are all sermons that were preached in times of what we would call revival, the first
Starting point is 01:10:18 of the second great awakening. And what you'll find is what they connected the dots on was relevancy. And you can just almost not find a single subject that they didn't cover from the pulpit, even if it was super controversial. And so, you know, if I just, I'll try to read through some of these. So here's a history sermon, which I think is cool. This is a sermon about pilgrims and what the pilgrims contributed. We haven't had that. We need that since we got 1619. Here's a sermon by Charles Chauncey, who's one of John Adams' favorite preachers about the Boston Massacre. So this is in the news, and this is preached just a couple weeks afterwards. This is called a century sermon. This is looking at the last history, what's happened in the country in the last day. So we were big in the
Starting point is 01:11:00 history. So this is the sermon on the moral view of railroads. So the moral view of railroads. Yeah, because what he did is, okay, what are the biblical principles of transportation in the Bible? Let's see what the Bible says about transportation. Well, here's the new technology. How does it fit with the principles? So he goes into principles of transportation and then says there's technology. Was it for or against railroads? Actually, he saw very positive things that could come from railroads. Here's one on science, snow and vapor, which is a Bible verse out of Job. Here's one on the murderous bloodshed at Lexington. This is a sermon that was preached three years after Lexington Concord. So they're covering news stories. Here's a sermon on the
Starting point is 01:11:42 opening of the Great Bridge over the Connecticut River. So here you've got architecture. Here is a sermon on the infirmities and comforts of old age. Now, everybody's got to deal with growing but I haven't heard a sermon on that. What do you do and where are you headed? Here's a sermon on the policy and the injustice of the slave trade and the slavery of the Africans. So we're right in the middle of cultural issues at that point in time. Here's a sermon on the relation of the medical profession to the ministry, all the health care codes of the Bible. And there's a bunch of them. I mean, that's why the Jews were always blamed when disease broke out. They didn't get sick. They didn't get sick because they followed the health codes of the Bible.
Starting point is 01:12:24 There's a great book that came out way back in 1961 by Dr. S.I. McMillan. And he said, you know, when God gave all these health codes in the Bible, he said at the time, the Egyptians and the Assyans and the Babylonians all said, look how backward these people are. Look at their health codes. And God at the time in Exodus 1526, after he gave the health codes, he said, if you'll do the things that I've told you here, I'll put on you, none of the diseases that I put on the Egyptians. In other words, you'll have a whole different health system than what everybody else has. and that's what they that's what they stuck with and so that's the kind of sermons we had
Starting point is 01:12:56 was here's the Bible and health and I haven't ever heard anything on that in my lifetime here's a sermon Dr. Jonathan Mayhew he's one of John Adams' favorite preachers and it's the Great Fire in Boston anything that was in the news they covered from the pulpit
Starting point is 01:13:10 always gave a perspective on it here's a sermon on the execution of Henry Blackburn for the murder of George Wilkinson so a guy being executed let's see whether that's right wrong or indifferent here's a sermon on the death of general lafayette so if a famous person died we looked at that uh here is a sermon uh let's see here is a sermon on the christian patriot so responsibilities of government and here's a sermon on the christian use of property
Starting point is 01:13:37 here's a sermon on the divine right of the american government uh here's one on the atlantic telegraph so a sermon on the lane at the transatlantic telegraph here's a sermon on the Civil War is seen from the pulpit. Here's one in immigration and the modern immigrant. Can you imagine going to church and hearing a sermon on AI? Yeah. You know, on the ethical use of AI or quantum computing or the Internet that just didn't end in porn. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:14:14 Like the railroad and things. And the bridge and all the bridge. all of these things, we are not. And I think this is my biggest problem with faith right now, going to churches, is they're not, we have, in my lifetime, I have never seen a time where there are more unanswered, even unquestioned moral quandaries.
Starting point is 01:14:42 We are on the precipice of, we don't even know how to define life. and we're about to reinvent life. You know, we don't know the basic defense or stance on really huge questions. I've never seen this before in my life. That's the way churches will become relevant again. It's where we are at this point in the country, because there's 384,000 churches and senior pastors in America.
Starting point is 01:15:11 And people like George Barnum polling 500 today, what we find is 72% do not even agree with the scriptures. so they don't even think the scriptures are valid or have any influence. How many? 72%. So what that leaves you is 107,000 pastors that say we believe the scriptures and we believe that it's relevant. So the 107,000 pastors is 28% polling down with 500 a day to say, okay, do you think
Starting point is 01:15:37 the Bible addresses all issues that happen around you? And depending, and we gave 14 issues, and depending on what the issue was, between 91 and 97% of those pastors said yes the bible does address those issues and then we said okay have you addressed that issue from the pulpit or do you have any plans to address that issue and 90% said absolutely not those are political things we don't cover that from the pulpit but wait a minute you just told me that was in the scriptures and you're not going to say what the scriptures are so what we find is only 2.8% of pastors a day do anything related to relevancy applying the scriptures to what's going on in the culture these guys by and large have talked themselves into a position of silence and the result is that
Starting point is 01:16:21 you see people now with their faith is completely compartmentalized here's my faith on Sunday but here's not my faith on Wednesday or Tuesday or Thursday afternoon or anything else and so faith is no longer relevant you don't get this kind of relevancy anymore that we had so David give me just two minutes on the impact of of just people who are probably have never voted before or one church getting together and saying, oh, the school board, we're going to stand up. Can you give? I can give you a lot more than one, but I'll just take you real quickly to Yonkins race in Virginia. 312 churches got together last January and said, look, we need to have a difference. North, what Northam did, he just passed a bill that says,
Starting point is 01:17:05 if you try to abort a child and you don't do it and it lives, it's okay to kill it after it's born. And they gave a standing ovation for that measure, and that's just a wicked measure. I mean, that's just bad. And so 312 churches, most of them rural churches got together and said, hmm, this is not good. We got an election coming in November. And so back in January, they started looking and they said, okay, let's find people who sit in our pews and our churches. And again, these weren't large churches. And let's find people who have never voted for, who haven't even registered to vote. And let's get them registered and have them vote for the first time. And they did, and they had 77,000 people out of those 312 churches who had never before voted, who voted for Yonkin.
Starting point is 01:17:43 Yonkin won by 66,000 votes. Wow. So right there, out of tens of thousands of churches from Virginia, 312 little churches did that. They didn't stop there. They said, by the way, they said, in First Timothy, we're told that an athlete is not crowned unless he runs according to the rules. So what are the rules? And they looked at the elections, and 1,300 people from the churches got trained as election judges and election officials. Wow.
Starting point is 01:18:06 They identified 5.2% of the votes cast as fraudulent. Now, you take out 5.2% fraudulent votes. there's the election again. I mean, there's just so many things they did. So I guess the difference is, I don't ever want to be a church where, and I think some churches have become this on the left, where the God is the government. Right. And I guess that's why when I say, I don't want to hear, you know, I don't want to hear who to vote for, you know, politics. I guess I just don't want my church to preach that God is the government, that we have to have the government to do things. The church should be a restraint on government and should be a way to get the people in who understand Bill of Rights restrains the government.

Starting point is 01:21:09 Back in, we're back in the Oregon days when we all gathered on the lawn or the mall in Washington, D.C. at the steps of Abraham Lincoln, we talked to you about the Black Rube Regiment, and there is something going on now with a lot of religious people. They are starting to wake up. I want you to know the National Black Rope Regiment.com is up and really has a whole bunch of information on it. You can also follow it on Facebook at National Black Rope Regiment on Facebook. They have things like COVID-19 versus religious liberty and liberty.

And it is a way for pastors. And, you know, it's probably going to be a lot of pastors that, like in the old days, we're kicked out of their churches. Fine. Do it. Do it. Because it is important now for people to stand up for the things they truly believe.

Starting point is 01:25:17 So, Stu, yesterday, a judge in Washington, D.C., decided to, to release Ali and Teherazeta. Is that his name? Teherazeta. The two guys that were posing as DHS. Oh, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:25:37 They're DHS agents. They were living in an apartment where other secret service, like secret service agents lived. Like Jill Biden's Secret Service. And they would be befriended them. They gave them all sorts of gifts. That would be strange to accept,
Starting point is 01:25:52 I think, as a Secret Service agent. And, you know, they had all kinds of communication equipment. They had encrypted hard drives. They had hard drive copiers. They had the manuals, the government manuals for Secret Service. They had the government manuals for the Department of Homeland Security. They had bulletproof vests. They had different markings that you put on that for, you know, for FBI, DHS, Secret Service. Yeah. And all of this adds up to understandable suspicion until you understand that they said they just wanted to make friends. Right. And that explains the drone, the high, the high end drone that they had as well.
Starting point is 01:26:32 Do you think drones are cool? I do. I do. And if someone has a drone, I want to make friends with them. Amen. And, you know, just because, just because their passports have the stamp of the one city, the airport in Iran, where the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has its, uh, command post to train people to go into foreign countries and assassinate people, just because their passport had that stamp on it several times, does not mean that that's who they are. It's a beautiful area, Glenn. I don't know if you've ever visited.
Starting point is 01:27:12 Oh, no, I've got a vacation house there. Do you really? Yeah, overlooking the coulds force. Yeah, it's really, training area. I know what hill you're talking about. It's beautiful. Yeah, it's really nice. It was hard to get a place there.
Starting point is 01:27:23 But I've got a, you know, I've got one of those four seasons. time shares. Oh, wow. So if you ever need to use it, you know, you're going there just to say, family would love it. Yeah. Al Kudz, you're great. Love you guys.
Starting point is 01:27:34 Yeah. You can do that. So it's open a lot. Really? Not a lot of it's not utilized. No, not. I never have a hard time getting my time share there. Well, that's good because sometimes they can get booked up quickly.
Starting point is 01:27:48 And if you don't book in advance, but no problems there. So anyway, the judge said, you can't, you can't, you can't, prove any kind of foreign connection to these guys. Yeah, you got that on the passport. What? So what? What does that mean? You know, time shares.
Starting point is 01:28:06 Really? This is what happened. The defense attorneys argued the government was making a mountain out of a mole hill. No, I just don't think of it. I just don't think that. But they're out. and I'm sure they're not going to get on the plane and go right back to Iran. I'm sure that's not going to happen.
Starting point is 01:28:31 But by the way, Iran, of course, has warned us that because Donald Trump killed Qasam Soleimani and nine other people, that, quote, killing the president of the United States is not enough. So, but I wouldn't worry about these two guys. again they seem friendly so everything should be fine we don't seem to be taking this all that seriously I feel like we should you think
Starting point is 01:29:01 you think that if I don't know you feel as if we should I'm willing to go out on the limb on this okay I'll hear you out okay thank you you know what that's all I ask if you happen to be the president of the United States
Starting point is 01:29:14 and your wife has secret service and those people have been infiltrated by two Iranians with all sorts of crazy military style equipment and a passport stamp at an airport frequented by the Iranian Al-Quds forces. Yeah. I believe that is something that you should consider taking seriously. This is kind of the nonsense that you would hear if Elon Musk took over Twitter. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:29:46 Okay, you'd hear that kind of stuff from crazy people. California, the legislation that they're working on now will create a four-day work week for large employers. So you'll get paid the same amount of money, but you'll only work 32 hours instead of 40. And that will apply to any corporation with more than 500 employees. So that's good. That's good. That's good. And by the way, also, just so you know,
Starting point is 01:30:21 any work above 12 hours in a day must be compensated at twice your pay rate. Now, technically, I believe there's an attorney that could make the case that I work for Premier Radio Networks, which is IHeart Radio. And I need to do. four shows in one day. Really? And I get twice the rate. All right.
Starting point is 01:30:55 There you go. We're all going for milkshakes. This is going to work out well. This is going to, no, it's, you know, companies are going to love this. It makes it so easy for companies to stay afloat, you know? Well, that's why we need programs to cover the people when they lose their jobs. Right. You know, when they need to stay home and they no longer can be functional members of society.
Starting point is 01:31:16 this is there's a little almost a wave of dependence that the government brings to those involved in it and it seems to be the thing that they encourage almost all the time you know it would be nice if we were a country
Starting point is 01:31:32 that was built on self-reliance instead of reliance on the government this is not Elon Musk's Twitter okay this is not the place these words are not allowed here they're not allowed here you know what is allowed is the truth Cut two, please. Here's Joe Biden yesterday. Putin's invasion of Ukraine has driven up gas prices and fruit prices all over the world.
Starting point is 01:31:55 Ukraine and Russia are the one and two largest wheat producers in the world. We're number three. They're shut down. We saw that yesterday's inflation data. What people don't know is that 70% of the increase in inflation was the consequence of Putin's price. because of the impact on oil prices, 70%. We need to address these high prices and urgently. That's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:32:26 As anybody noticed how much of an old get-off-my-law man he is now? Have you noticed that? He seems to be angry a lot of the times. And this is actually coming from some people in the White House saying that he gets a little out of control with his anger. once in a while. But he is, he'll turn on a dime. He looked angry.
Starting point is 01:32:49 I was just watching this clip. He looked angry. But I don't know if you saw that clip earlier this week. I don't know. Steven, if you have the, the clip, the one where he was,
Starting point is 01:33:01 oh, I can't remember what he said. I think it was about Putin, maybe. But he, all of a sudden, he was like, no,
Starting point is 01:33:06 no joke. And he started yelling at the audience. You're like, oh, dude, man, you are, really. Get the metal detector. It's time for you to walk on the beach.
Starting point is 01:33:16 This is super common with people going through what it appears Joe Biden is going through, right? When you start to kind of lose your marbles. Marbles is what that's the scientific term. I didn't want to get too deep into the science there. Control of your bowels. When you lose those things. Yes, those things. The normal interactions you have with people start to get really frustrating.
Starting point is 01:33:42 Yeah. You know, and when you, you feel like people are mocking you, you feel like people are. mocking you. You feel like people are laughing at you. You feel like you can't just pull up that piece of information you know is sitting there in your brain somewhere. This happens to older people all the time when they go through this and they get frustrated and angry and they lash out. Can I tell you something? This is, I did, you know, I had to get hearing aids this year or this week, this last week. So I went and got hearing aids. And the doctor said, so, what is the what's your biggest frustration and I said my wife my wife is yeah was that
Starting point is 01:34:22 take my wife please I said my wife is the biggest frustration because I cannot hear I've lost my upper range of frequency this sounds a little selective by you it does I can hear everybody but my wife yeah yeah and so I said I can't hear and I'm constantly saying wait say that again what and you know Oh she must love that Oh she does Oh yeah And then finally she's like
Starting point is 01:34:49 You know she'll be like You're not wearing pants You know and I'll be like You don't have to yell at me Right right You know yeah yeah And she said this is the biggest Problem when you start to lose your hearing
Starting point is 01:35:03 Is you get really frustrated Everybody else gets frustrated And it's just this weird misunderstanding kind of thing you're both feeling it in a different way. And she said, so she was doing some things. And I started to feel like, because word retrieval has become a little weird for me. And I'm like, I mean, I've never been good with words.
Starting point is 01:35:30 Words ain't my friend. But word retrieval has become a little difficult. And this is like really early if I'm having problems with word retrieval. And so I went in and I did this test. And you do this test where you're following things on a screen. And it has nothing, seemingly has nothing to do with hearing. And I'm like, okay, that was a fun test. I'm here for my ears.
Starting point is 01:36:00 What? I said I'm here for my ears. You're not wearing pants. So anyway, she comes in and she said, your what was it your cognitive or yeah your cognitive is slowing down and I said right okay I didn't think I would hear that from the ear specialist but yes right what's happening and she said that's normal she said you don't hear with your ears you hear with your brain so your your ears pick up sound and that sound wave has been connected
Starting point is 01:36:41 to a word and a meaning. And so this sound comes in and your brain usually doesn't, if it can hear clearly, doesn't have to work very hard to put the word in place, okay?
Starting point is 01:36:52 But if you can't hear it, it then has to go through all of the words that that might sound like and then put it into the sentence. More processing time, essentially. Right.
Starting point is 01:37:03 So you're overloading because there be sentences where I'm like, the chicken is wearing shoes. What did you just say? And that's what I'll really hear. Okay. And so it slows things, it slows things down.
Starting point is 01:37:21 And it's weird and frustrating. And, you know, I'm not 90 or 80 where he's going to be 80. This guy, you look at him now, he's not there. We just did this special on Wednesday. And, you know, there. it's just he's checked out he's checked out look at him five years ago giving a speech you could see it in his eyes there's nothing there behind the eyes rarely is there something there behind the eyes with him you're like i don't think he's hello is anybody in there i'm not sure that there is yesterday
Starting point is 01:38:04 there was this um viral video that was going around of him at the end of a speech do we happen to have this where he was shaking hands with niblet niblet niblet god bless you all right he turns and he looks like he's shaking hands with niblick the uh invisible
Starting point is 01:38:21 Himalayan Shurpa what the heck okay then he just stands and looks and walks off okay looks like a meandering guy however the heck if you look at we check the camera angles
Starting point is 01:38:37 if you look at all the camera angles it doesn't look as bad from all angles. It might have been just that angle. It didn't look like he was so befuddled with other angles. And I think it's important that we dismiss the things that are not, for instance, he's always said crazy things. He's always said crazy things.
Starting point is 01:38:59 But the things that he says occasionally now are much different than the crazy things he used to say. And much more dangerous. And much more dangerous. Yeah. You know, there is, I think, honestly, I'm glad you said that about looking at the other camera angles because, look, look, look, you can always find stuff that makes Joe Biden look bad. I mean, he does it time after time after time. But I think it really is important for the American people to monitor the line here between where Joe Biden is, which is really bad, in my opinion, and where it appears, unfortunately, Diane Feinstein is, which is unable to seemingly do her job in any way.
Starting point is 01:39:38 that now Democrats are saying that come out to the San Francisco Chronicle and said hey we've had meetings with her she's introducing herself multiple times to us in the conversation she's not recognizing people who have worked on their staff there's a joke on Capitol Hill that
Starting point is 01:39:55 that there is what was it it was like there is a great senior senator or a great junior senator from California and a great experienced staff from the senior senator's office. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:13 In other words, she can't. She can't function at all. And what's amazing is nobody has a problem throwing her under the bus. She's become a liability for the hard, hard left, I think. She's not woke enough for them. And they want somebody else. So they're throwing her under the bus. But they won't say a word about Joe Biden.
Starting point is 01:40:34 And you can't. And of course, it's the opposite. As far as importance goes, the opposite is the way to go. I mean, Joe Biden, one senator being out of it is really bad, and I feel bad mainly for her. Yeah. But like, our country can continue to survive that. Having the president out there calling in an answer on gas prices, accusing a country of genocide that has 6,000 nuclear weapons, right or wrong. It should not be how it happened.
Starting point is 01:41:01 But I want to go back to that for a second. Let me take a quick break and come back because the 25th Amendment, everybody's talking, about. And we learned something this week on the show, on the TV show, that is really important to understand. First, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins. Tuddle Twins have a new book out. It is called the Tuddle Twins and the creature from Jekyll Island. It is all about the Fed. It's how inflation works. And it has been written so your kids can understand it. And quite honestly, if you've not read the creature from Jekyll Island, which is, I don't know, a big, thick, you know, scholarly book, If you haven't read that, you're going to learn a lot of stuff about the Fed.
Starting point is 01:41:41 Most people don't really understand how the Fed works. And as we are seeing, because some people are buying in that Putin has caused this inflation, as you're seeing, most people don't know how inflation even works. The clock is ticking for our economy. And I've asked the Tuttle Twins people, can you make this book available for free? Because I think it is imperative for every family to read this book. Tuttle Twins, the books are. excellent. This one is so crucial to read so you can prepare. Tuttletwinsbeck.com. You can get this one
Starting point is 01:42:13 free wall supplies last. The Tuddle Twins and the creature from Jekyll Island. That's Tuttletwinsbeck.com. 10 seconds station ID. So here is the interesting thing about the 25th Amendment. People say we ought to evoke the 25th Amendment. That's what Nancy Pelosi tried to do with changing the law to allow Congress to do it. But that Congress just changing a law does not change the Constitution. The Constitution was written in such a way, this particular law, that it can only be his side that pulls people out. So in other words, an opposing party that like with Donald Trump can't say, oh, my gosh, he's crazy. We got to get him out and then invoke the 25th Amendment. It has to be the vice president.
Starting point is 01:43:15 And what is it? a third or... I thought it was half the cabinet, but it's something like that. So it has to be those guys that do it, the people that are in his administration that actually do something like that. It cannot be done any other way. Well, there's another carve-out for a commission
Starting point is 01:43:35 of sorts that Congress can name, right? That's what the word, the direction she was trying to go in. I don't think that's in the 25th Amendment, is it? Yeah, it's, there's two ways to go. about it because we were just talking about this because I was interested, this was 18 months ago they proposed this. I know. 18 months ago, they proposed this as a change.
Starting point is 01:43:54 And this is one of the things we talk about all the time. You can not like the person at the top or you look and like the person at the top. Giving them the power, it means that the next person that you probably don't like gets it as well. And here they wanted to give this commission power to throw the
Starting point is 01:44:10 president out based on supposed ideas of mental stability. Would they have that now? Because they certainly wouldn't vote for that now. The Democrats wouldn't vote for that bill now. Of course not. Because they know what would happen. Republicans would come in and use it and we should not push for it. It's a very, very bad thing. The 25th Amendment was written because they thought there was a chance that John Kennedy would survive with brain damage and there was no way to get him out of office.

Starting point is 01:46:18 as it comes to life to tell you all about a miracle that has happened. Stu, may I ask, do you believe in miracles? I do. Yes, amen. This is Good Friday. This is when the Lord was crucified. This is also Passover when the spirit passed over the houses of the Israelites and killed the firstborn in, Egypt or someplace.
Starting point is 01:46:51 Hallelujah. Yeah. So I have another miracle on the weekend that the Lord rose from the dead. A modern day miracle. Two women at the New Jersey's only women's prison have both fallen pregnant. Wow. Yeah. Immaculate.
Starting point is 01:47:22 It is immaculate. That's what I would say. Okay. Now, they did have sex with other women, but it's still an immaculate, amazing thing. How could that happen scientifically? I guess there's no explanation. There is no explanation, none. So they, so these women.
Starting point is 01:47:48 I even thought because this is, this, this, this, this is a prison, um, They're in Clinton, New Jersey. I even thought that. I thought maybe that's part of the miracle. Right, yeah. You know, but no, it's not. It's not. That's incredible.
Starting point is 01:48:04 Well, you know, you just don't think things like this can be possible. You think of these miracles as old-timey things from the Bible. But no. Look at this right here. Yeah, they don't know what they're going to do with the children yet. Hopefully they carry them to full term. It would be great to have. Because one would be surprising.
Starting point is 01:48:20 Yeah, but two. And in all women's prison. That's two. One would be surprising, but maybe there's a, I don't know, it's a guard. No. Someone who visited and shouldn't have. Now, listen, this is the place. It's very progressive, okay?
Starting point is 01:48:35 Okay. They do have 27 transgendered prisoners there. And both of these. And both of these transgendered, or these non-transgendered women, they did have sex with. with one or two of the transgender women. But those are just women. Those are just women.
Starting point is 01:48:58 Those are just women. Those are just women. I don't know if they were menstruating at the time. I don't know. I don't know what happened. We don't know if they were men. What? If the men, I mean, sorry, the transgendered women.
Starting point is 01:49:10 Okay. Got it were menstrating. So. And why didn't they get pregnant? What you're saying is that a woman, a biological woman. Yes. Was in prison. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:49:20 And seemingly. Mm-hmm. had sex with a biological man. And the result of that was a pregnancy. You don't understand this. You know what you need? You need a good priest. You need a good priest.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Have you seen Father Stu yet? No. Got your name in it. Yeah. Everyone keeps telling me. Yeah. Father Stu. It looks good.
Starting point is 01:49:39 It's not actually my name, but that's a whole different story. But it's getting bad reviews. Is it not? Yeah, it is actually. Something like 45%. Is that from the critics or the audience? Critics, 45% on Rottenados. The audience seems to love it.
Starting point is 01:49:50 It's like 94%. with the audience. What's to deal with the critics, you think? I don't know. It's a Mel Gibson. It is a Mel Gibson. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:58 Is that why the critics because they just can't forgive him for them. I mean, I think that's probably it. It's hard. Actually, 45% for a Mel Gibson movie from critics in 2022 might actually be his top of the line. Well, it might also be because, you know,
Starting point is 01:50:11 of all of the swearing in it. I mean, rated R. It's a rated R movie, yeah. And I don't know why he would do that. Well, yeah, I do. I mean,
Starting point is 01:50:21 you know. probably was written by Jews. I don't think that's... Mel Gibson provide you with that joke? Yeah, he did. No, he didn't. It's not like we're going to do that. You know, we're going to be doing an interview with Mel Gibson anytime soon.

Starting point is 01:51:28 Next. Stay informed. Sign up for the free newsletter today at glenbeck.com. Today, we're going on a journey. They say that time itself does not exist as we know it. As we understand it, it only really exist as something called space time. It's really only a point on a giant map. Something that we can use to find out where we are, where we've been, or where we're going.
Starting point is 01:52:19 So let's unfold space time and trace our way back. First, maybe just a couple of years. Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world. The United States has conducted an operation. that killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda. On my orders, the United States military has begun struck. Against the al-Qaeda terrorist training camps. The people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.
Starting point is 01:52:47 Now back, even further. Princess Diana died. I did not have this vast right-wing conspiracy. He is O.J. Simpson. He is armed with a gun. Mr. Gorbachev tears down this. Elvis Presley died today. Well, I'm not a crook.
Starting point is 01:53:04 I've earned everything I've got. Because of what has happened in Munich during the past 48 or eight or nine terrified living human beings are being held prisoner. A second shot, the third total shot hit the president's head. Mr. Gentlemen, the Beatles! Dr. Morton Luther King has been shot to death in Memphis. A shark time ago, an American airplane dropped one bomb on Hiroshima. Allied naval forces supported by strong air force. began landing Allied armies this morning on the northern coast of French.
Starting point is 01:53:41 December 7th, 41, a state which will live in infant. Back farther still, even before Marconi, when the air was silent. Past the signing of the Declaration of Independence, past the age of enlightenment, before Martin Luther hung his protest on the church doors, before Columbus rediscovered the fact that the world was round. We go past Newton, Galileo, the Dark Ages, the Crusades, back to a time before books, when most of the world couldn't read nor write, and history was oral.
Starting point is 01:54:31 We leave this world now, where we can hear and see a lone protester standing in front of a tank in a country on the other side of the planet, and we can see it live. to a world seemingly simple, yet brutal beyond our understanding, where news was spread from mouth to mouth. We stop here at approximately 29 of the Common Era. We stop at a small walled city in the Middle East. It's around 10 o'clock at night, just a couple of days before Passover.
Starting point is 01:55:08 The meals are being prepared, the night's meal, had already been eaten, and most in the city are asleep. One man, however, is not. It's strange. He's younger than I am. He's about 30. He's awake and alone in a garden. His friends who have been with him for several years are just a few yards away. They slumber underneath the star-filled sky. They still don't know that even though they see. sleep, the world is about to wake. Eleven of twelve men sleep beside a hill. One man awake.
Starting point is 01:55:54 He couldn't sleep, for he knew. He was in a garden in prayer, praying so hard about what he knew was about to come, praying so hard that blood actually dripped from his pores in a place of sweat. Back at the hill, when he returned, he begged his friends to wake and pray with him. They didn't know how serious his request really was. They had no idea what was just to come. He pleaded with his friends, why will you not rise and pray with me?
Starting point is 01:56:32 He asked this again before returning to the garden alone. He knelt there on rocky soil, his hands clasped. His head bowed. Twilight dew draped his neck, the horizon still in black. He prayed. He prayed even harder, for the sky would eventually turn purple than light blue, and he knew what awaited him. Back to the hill once more, his friends asleep. He begged his friends, rise, rise and pray with me. I need you now more than ever. They said they would, but shortly after he left, they fell asleep again. The dawn was even closer, and he knew his time was running out. Now over the hill, they marched like flowing lava burning in the night's solace. The eleven are surely awake now. They have sworn their faith to him, but he knows he knew this wasn't true.
Starting point is 01:57:40 They'll weaken and he'll be forsaken, forsaken by the same men who just swore their undying devotion. The torchlights grow brighter, the hourglass running low, the clanging of the metal swords and spears, the sound and the vibration of the march deep down from their feet to their spine, creating a shallow vibration, leaving them quivering. The soldiers approach. The one is grabbed and kissed.
Starting point is 01:58:12 betrayed with a kiss. A kiss wearing the mask of loyalty. One of the men leap forward, draws his sword, cutting the ear off one of the soldiers. He raises his hand. No. Peace. Take me now in peace.
Starting point is 01:58:33 For this is my purpose. This is my being. This is the reason I came. Now, one of them, Peter, strays. While his friend is being persecuted for crimes he didn't commit, he stands by a fire, denying any relationship he has as he tries to blend in with the common people. A woman approaches, Didn't I see you with him?
Starting point is 01:59:03 Peter says, Surely I don't know him, but you're from Galilee. For the third time, Peter says, I do not know this man. Now Jesus is pulled back and forth between the two who will determine his fate. They can't see any crime, but they still question, scourge, and mock him. Aren't you the king? Silence.
Starting point is 01:59:30 Then here is your crown, says one as they give him a crown of thorns and press it into his head. He stands before the judge, who could condemn him for. no crime, but it is Passover. He says to the crowd, you, you can choose, one I will release, him as the king of the Jews, or Jesus standing silent, his eyes to the ground, is condemned to death. Jesus now carries his cross through the stone-clad streets to the place known as the skull, the place where he will soon die. His back torn, his head bleeding beneath his thorny crown. The women cry out loud as he passes.
Starting point is 02:00:23 He pauses for a moment and comforts them. Do not weep for me. Rather, weep for yourselves. His mother looks on as huge nails are driven through his hands and his feet. they raised the cross and slam it into the ground. It is at this point that all four writers of the gospel struggled with the description of the crucifixion, as I have.
Starting point is 02:00:54 They described with the only words that I could use, and they crucified him. He now hung on the cross as the soldiers bid lots on his clothing below. Next to him, two criminals hang, but they are simply tied to the cross. One of them says, You're the son of God, save us now, save all of us. The man in the middle does nothing, for he had a purpose. The afternoon passes. His skin stretched. He wept. He begged for water, and they gave him a sponge on a reed filled with vinegar. In a moment where he showed us that he was truly human,
Starting point is 02:01:47 he cried out and said, My father, why have you forsaken me? The sky began to grow dark. It was approaching three o'clock on a Friday afternoon. When Jesus, the carpenter from Nazareth, spoke once more and only once. His last words, it is finished.
Starting point is 02:02:22 So today, people all over the world, do as I do now. I thank that lone carpenter for dying, dying on that Friday afternoon. So I may live. When you were little, you have braced some of in the course of recreat,
