Mark Lee and for Beck today, live from West Michigan, and of course, Wood Radio W-O-O-O-D, high atop West Michigan this morning, overlooking downtown Grand Rapids, in fact, and some of the headlines. You've got a little bit of a hangover from the turkey. We'll fix that. We get the thing that'll cure you.

It is a Beck Friday. We're talking about the crumbling narrative. You've seen the news stories lately, and it seems like one after the other. I don't know if you follow these. They continue to crumble. Every, you know why it is? Every single story you see pushed.

It's not just the facts anymore. It's always pushed on you and me with a little added extra sauce. Yeah. Let me tell you what. It's not the, well, it's not, it's a little extra flavor. Look, I understand Thanksgiving food. Maybe I might want my Thanksgiving, ever a little flavored, you know, correctly. I may want a little extra something.

Maybe one extra heaping helping. When it comes to the news these days, you just want the facts. I just want the story. Not your story, but the story. Tell me what happened. And I'll figure out what happened, what it really means. on my own, I'll listen to a couple of trusted folks. Maybe I'll do some extra digging if I'm interested.

But, you know, these days we don't get that. And it's hidden. Well, it's hidden very well precisely in what they tell you. And then, you know what? They don't tell you. Have you noticed a couple of big stories, in fact, I'll give you this one the other day. The narrative continues to crumble. It got a Colorado.

It's a tragedy. This man comes in and attacks this nightclub. On the pieces of this story, it just happens to be and on an alternative lifestyle, LGBTQ gay bar, whatever you want to call it, it just happens to be that particular type of club. Is that important? Well, I think it does matter that we need to hear that.

But is that the big lead-ish? you? Or is it the fact that innocent people were killed? They were attacked by someone who clearly had issues. That's evil. But we don't hear that anymore. We can't call it what it is. When someone does violence to someone else, that's all we need to know. That's bad enough. But no, not bad. It's certainly not bad enough for some of the folks like, CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of them. I don't know if you saw this, but CNN almost deflated as the narrative continues to crumble in their faces.

But as soon as the story came out, they were just so upset to hear Allison Camerata. Wait a minute. This is happening in real time, finding out that the person who, the person who attacked that club, according to the attorney, identifies as non-binary. So attorneys for the accused shooter, Anderson Lee Aldrich, say in new court filings tonight, that the suspect now identifies as non-binary. Oh. In a footnote to a motion asserting legal privileges, the public defenders say, quote,

Anderson Aldrich is non-binary. Now, I don't know. You can't see her if you're listening on the radio. obviously you can't see her, but I'm hoping that you can hear her. Can you hear her? Can you hear the disdain? Can you hear the disgust in her voice? She doesn't believe it.

First of all, she does not believe it. They're rooting for a narrative. They're not rooting for the truth. They use they-them pronouns, and for the purposes of all formal filings will be addressed as Mix Aldrich. So in other words, not Mr. or Ms. Joining me now, CNN political commentator, Errol Lewis, also back with me,

Al Franken and Joe Walsh. I don't know what to say about that. I mean, that's not anything that we had heard from his background. You know, people have been looking into his background. Oh, we didn't know that. This is just one of those dangerous, deplorable Trump supporters. This is a MAGA American. That's what, obviously, the narrative is, right?

You know, the narrative. The narrative, the story was, well, this is only happening because Republicans are pushing back saying that, I don't know, kids shouldn't have sexually explicit material available to them in schools. Pornography shouldn't be peddled on some of our most vulnerable in society. The most innocent. They're the ones who cause this. Those crazy, wacky Republicans, those Christians.

Well, the truth, I don't even know if we know. whole truth yet. The truth is that anybody that does anything like this has something really wrong with them. And we see violence happening all the time. And it's not just here in America. They want to make it all about the gun.

Biden, by the way, a little bit later on, we'll talk about this. He's going for the guns again. I don't even know if he knew what he meant when he said this. They actually meant what he said. But he's babbling. Biden babbling once again. Had a little bit too much turkey. Almost

almost in the middle of a coma yesterday. Apparently, he mentioned he wanted to come for the guns. We'll talk about that. They want to blame the gun, too. But no, the truth is that people are sick because society is sick. If you want the ultimate truth, the real truth, you know, we live in a fallen world. Evil is real. We walk around acting like it's not.

It doesn't exist. This panel believes that. good is evil. Well, that sounds so many. Why have I heard that before? And I don't know if anybody here, are you guys lawyers? I mean, you know, I don't know what to say about that. I mean, that that's what he's now saying.

It sounds like they're trying to prepare a defense against a hate crimes charge. That's the least of his problem. Oh, that's what I mean. But it looks like they're trying to build some kind of sympathy or at least confusion on the question of whether or not this was purely motivated by hate. Errol Lewis, a political commentator I've never heard of because I don't really watch a lot of CNN until this moment. He gets paid to talk about this.

He gets paid to have these opinions. He gets paid to push the narrative. He says, and this makes no sense whatsoever, because you got murder charges. It doesn't matter whether they were hate crimes or it doesn't matter what they are. You're going to jail for a very long time. And in some places, you may face the death penalty. You may get the chair or whatever they use these days.

Errol says, no, this is just the attorneys trying to. to garner some sympathy. I mean, that is what it sounds like. We'll wait to see. Yeah. Garner some sympathy for the attacker. This isn't the only story, folks. You think that's all I got?

No, no. What about, did you, you remember the Walmart attack that happened? It happened a day or so after the tech in Colorado. What about the Walmart attack? Turns out that story disappeared from the news cycle really quickly. but do you know why? Well, some are still covering it, but once they had a mugshot and they had, wow. Oh, the truth behind who actually perpetrated the thing and what really happened behind the scenes,

everything was off and they have to shift and switch as quickly as they can. But you know what? Much of this doesn't matter because the damage is already done. A lot of what you hear in the news first is false. Just remember that. whether that's by intention or just by the fact they're trying to scramble to get out the details as quick as they can. A lot of what comes out first is false. That's why narratives like this tend to crumble. But why are they pushing these narratives in the first place?

We'll talk more about that. Plus, you can join us today on the Glenn Beck program. We're listening anywhere you're watching, listening to the program today, you can join us, AAA 727 back BECK. That's the phone lines. I love to hear, especially if you're out getting some Black Friday shopping done, getting some deals. Oh, I got stories about that as well today. They say they think it's going to be despite Biden inflation, despite the economy, they think it's going to be a big Black Friday.

Well, it's Beck Friday here. We'll continue with more. It's Justin Barkley and for Gly Beck today on the Glemba program back after this. The narrative continues to crumble, and it's no surprise because it's not the truth. What is the narrative? Well, it's a story. Another word for story. I remember when I was a kid. I used to hear. You telling stories?

In other words, you tell in fibs? You tell them lies? Ah. That's what half of the time we hear when we turn on the news. You really can't believe most of what you hear. You have to come to the table, I guess, with a little, take it with a grain of stuff. I'm skeptical, I would say, is a good way to put it. revealed cops find manifesto on Walmart Shooter's phone

outlining his unhappiness at recent change to his employment status. This is from the Daily Mail. They say he was angry toward colleagues who were, quote, harassing him. Neighbors says he left in silence to slaughter six. His mugshot reveals that Andre Bing was not a well man. Bing disgruntled. a manager just happens to be black.

That's why you haven't seen his mugshot plastered all over the media. And no, I'm not racist for telling you that. They're racist for having different ways of handling these things. They're wrong because they have narratives that they want to push. You know who really suffers because of this? you, me, the American people, because we're not really facing the truth. What really matters is we do have mental health issues in this country. No, but they push that.

In fact, you see mental health issues. Crises celebrated on a daily basis. You have to elevate these voices, they'll say. People who have real problem. I mean, look, you don't have to look much further. And people who are clearly delusional, they're getting most of the airtime these days. I mean, you listen to cable news networks, you watch with it, and a lot of those delusional folks are in Washington, D.C. as well.

Here's more on the story. A neighbor of being described the moment the killer left is rampage and silent. One of the victims often argued with his manager, Bing, about working weekends, his neighbor telling Daily Mail, disgruntled manager walking into the break room of the superstore in Chesapeake, Virginia before opening fire, killing six other workers, and a terrifying attack on Tuesday night, they said. FBI agents swooping in on the three-bedroom $300,000 property

where he lived alone on Tuesday night. Locals described seeing SWAT team using a battering ram. Picture show authority searching a shed at the rear of the property and removing bags full of clothing. Andre Bing. And I think he's dead now, too. I think he turned the gun on himself later on. and it, you know, it just completely conflicts with the narrative that they're pushing.

But wait, there's more. Folks, that's not it. I got another story here. This one from the blaze, the blaze.com, liberals blame homophobia for man on video tossing brick at gay club in New York City. Police arrested a gay man for the crime. Now, I won't give you too much of my commentary. I'll just tell you what I saw on Twitter for this in some of the other different places.

They have video, surveillance video of some man tossing a brick, but appears to be a man, we'll say that. Never know these days. But that appears to be a man tossing a brick through the window of this gay bar in New York City. And Twitter erupted with thoughts because they immediately said this must have been a hate crime. This must have been homophobia, run amok.

Twitter immediately erupted with their conjectures on. I just, I hate to say this, but they did. They called this on Twitter. They ran a muck with their conjectures on the sexual proclivities of this individual. By the way he threw the brick. they looked at his arm and I said you know it's kind of like

like Dr. Fauci throwing that first pitch in baseball. I don't know I don't know if you can really get that from this but turns out they had they had spectacular well we'll just call that six sets.

They were able to call it on Twitter. So another answer am I, I only tell you this because it's story after story after story here. It is story after story that we are constantly being pushed or prodded or poked or nudged or shoved even into this division in America. Now, who would want to do that? Why would they want to do that? That's the real question. Why are we constantly being divided in this country? When I think,

you know, I don't know about you, but I got together and we had a great Thanksgiving with the family. There wasn't any division. There wasn't any division. There wasn't any. fights, I don't know, maybe your family there was. Maybe it's a little different. But it was pretty calm. All was calm, peaceful, silent turkey night. That's kind of what we had. I think most, if you talk to your neighbors, most folks get along with their neighbors.

Regardless, even some that have signs up right next year, I don't agree with. I went through that with the election cycle. But folks, I tell you, this division is intentional. They're after something. It's directly from a blueprint, a playbook, in fact, that we will discuss next. We'll roll it out and tell you, in fact, how to fight against this, because the time has never been more important. It's Beck Friday.

We continue in for Glenbeck today. It's Justin Barkley, live from West Michigan, Grand Rapids and Wood Radio. on the Glenn Beck program. The Glennback program. It's called Divide and Conquer. There's a reason we're being pushed further and further apart. There's a reason why most of these mainstream media outlets are pushing certain narratives, stories, and pushing us into boxes, shoving us away from each other on a daily basis.

The narrative is crumbling. They're getting caught here. and there. Maybe there's a little hope with Elon Musk buying Twitter. Maybe there's a little bit of hope that you'll start to see. In fact, did he fact check Twitter? Did he fact check the president, the White House? I think he fact checked Biden's Twitter account on something.

I had to pull that up here in a little bit. We'll talk a little bit more on Twitter. As he's now revealed amnesty, well, not that kind. And he wants Twitter amnesty. They're going to bring back all of these old banned and suspended accounts, open them up. And he's also been talking about behind his sins. He said, you will not believe what we've uncovered when it comes to the censorship.

In other words, this is the way for them to craft their narrative, suppress the truth, and, of course, keep you in the dark, keep you, your family, and your neighbors, divided so they can conquer. let's talk about what's really happening, of course, how we can fight back and talk to the guy who wrote the book on it all. Who was Carl Marx, the men, the motives, and the menace behind today's rampaging American left. Jim Sensen joins us right now. Jim, I appreciate you being here with us today. How are you, my friend? Hey, Justin, how are you?

Thanks for having me. Absolutely. We just talked, and I don't know if you were able to hear any of this earlier, but we just talked about the continuing crumbling of the narrative. particularly in several different news stories in well in the in the case in in Colorado the person who attacked that alternative lifestyle bar the gay bar in Colorado that individual the attorney coming out and saying identifies as non-binary the other was the the liberals blaming homophobia for the man who tossed a brick through a the window of a gay bar in New York City.

Police arrested that man. He was gay. There's just story after story now that we're walking through. The narrative continues to crumb if you wait long enough, that usually happens. The truth does come out. But I want to really talk to you about this today about why this is happening behind the scenes.

It seems like we are being divided now more than ever before. And I don't think Americans really are now. necessarily that divided in a lot of ways, but they continue to try to push us further apart. Why is this happening? You've got the playbook. You wrote the book on some of this stuff. Walk us down that path. Just the strategy people aren't used to when it comes to warfare.

I mean, I describe this what's going on as a form of military offensive against America. You know, divide in conflict. as old as the hills, but divide and conquer doesn't, hasn't, or maybe hasn't in the past taken this form where people's beliefs are questioned, people's ideas are questioned, and then they're attacked, and it's very one-sided. So, you know, I was looking, for example, this morning at the fact that Catherine Englebrecht and Greg Phillips of True the Vote, who helped produce the movie 2000 Mules, were just released from jail. They had been jailed because they refused to cite the source for their accusation. that this election company, Konek, had stored information about millions of its election workers at a server in China. And so the Fifth Circuit court roundly excoriated the lower court for arresting them

on the basis of the fact that they wouldn't provide that information. I mean, it's stunning. And yet at the same time, Anglewreck and Phillips took their information to none other than George Gascon, the attorney in the district attorney in Los Angeles, who's been letting everybody go. You know, the guy who believes that people on their side shouldn't be in jail at all. And, of course, they had originally arrested the head of Konek on the base, claiming that he had embezzled money from them and violated their contract by storing this information in China. And now they've dropped all charges. And the L.A. Times proudly boasts that the prosecutor that Englebrecht and Phillips talked to,

who was an assistant, was put on leave. And here's the headline. L.A. prosecutor puts on leave, put on leave over questionable case sparked by election conspiracy theories. And they talk about, you know, true the vote and. and about through the vote as a Texas-based nonprofit that has fomented conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election. Right. And so, yeah, I mean, and it's insane. I'm very glad they got out of jail.

They should have ever been put in jail in the first place. I mean, that's an example of how corrupt our system has become that a court, literally goes after them for bringing this information forward, this critical information, which everybody should be concerned about, and they go after them because they won't provide the name of the person who provided that information. And then not only that, but then they discredit them by calling this all election conspiracy theories. But I want to ask a question, What about, you know, I ran for a state representative district this year in heavily Democratic Maryland. And I actually managed to get some crossover votes, but I didn't win, of course.

And at one of the events, somebody walked up to me and said, are you an election denier? and I said, you mean like Hillary? You know, I mean. Well, Jim, I got to ask you because you've named a couple of different things. These are tactics that are being used. And maybe you talk a little bit more about this in your book, Jim Simpson with us right now. He wrote the book, Who is Carl Marx? My question is, you know, this whole election denier thing, this is another strategy or tactic of naming, name, calling people elections.

And nobody denies there was an election. And we just have questions about how we got here. And, you know, even when I was in school, I remember the teacher in math saying, hey, you know, you got to show your work. In other words, I see your answer. But I want to know how you got here. We want to see why can't we lift up the hood and see what the heck is going on? People that ask those questions, they're the real problem, apparently, people that ask questions at all. Of fact, these are who these Marxists have problems with.

Break that down, Jim. Why is that? Well, you know, I don't say, you know, we talk about this suppression of conservative thought. I really dispute that characterization. It's not suppression of conservative thought or views. It's suppression of the truth. They don't want the truth coming out, you know. William F. Buckley called conservatism, the ideology of,

truth and his colleagues, Kirk Russell, the Russell Kirk rather, called it the ideology of no ideology. And that's the way I've always looked at it. You know, I mean, for 30 years, well, for 20 years, I've been writing for much longer than that. I've been researching. And, you know, when I went to college, I learned when you want to make a claim, you support it with facts, you know, and you cite those facts. And as you know, That's what I did in my book. I don't come up with any conspiracy theories. I don't come up with any thing that hasn't been, you know, properly vetted.

And yet, I'm a conspiracy theorist just for making those claims, making those statements, bringing them up. You know, and it goes all the way back to Lenin, who said we must write in a language that inspires hate, revulsion. and scorn toward those who disagree with us. Towards those who disagree. So he didn't care of what they say was true or not. They disagree with them, and therefore, they got to go. And, of course, once the Marxists get in power, as they did in the Soviet Russia under the Bolsheviks, they don't merely suppress the truth.

They just take those people and disappear them. Yeah, the history is clear. This is not going anywhere you want to go. This is in a very bad way. But let me ask you this, because maybe we've learned some of those things through history. Maybe we've learned a thing or two and in the book that we can learn how to fight back. What do we do to fight back? Jim Simpson, take a quick break here, and we come back.

Let's tackle that subject because I think it's, let's talk Turkey. I mean, I think it's something that we all need to know and include in our plans as we, We move forward here and try to take this country back. Who was Carl Marx, is the name of the book. The Men, the Motives, and the Menace behind today's rampaging American left. It's Barclay in for Beck today. We continue after this on the Glenn Beck program. The Glenn Back.

Triple-8-727 Beck. That's Triple-A-Septu-C joined a program at any time. Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on a Glenn-Back program. We're talking with Jim Simpson. He is the author. of who was Carl Marx, the men, the motives, the menace behind today's rampaging American love. One of the things we're seen is the war on truth.

Biggest issues, the numbers, the narratives continue to crumble when you see what the news media might be pushing here or there. And the stories, every day, there's something new. But it's not just the battle of words, the war awards, that's where it starts. But then it ends in stories like this. One and four Americans say they won't be having Thanksgiving because they can't afford it this year, a national rail strike viewed as increasingly inevitable. All these were cover on the way, and of course, election issues and more.

Jim, I just want to ask you, how do we fight back when it comes to the issues that we're facing, particularly this war on truth? Yeah, you know, this is something that I've really advocated for decades when Fox News first started and made astronomical growth, it demonstrated to me that people were starved for the truth because they had been getting the same old nonsense from the mainstream media for decades. And while they might have not known what the real truth was, everybody kind of sensed that they were getting played. And so when Fox came on and started actually report,

supporting the truth, they experienced astronomical growth. Now, of course, Fox is kind of beard left somewhat and is now kind of tends to follow the media to a certain extent. That's a shame. You know, they don't really delve deep into the 2020 election, for example, except for maybe, you know, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingram. And, of course, they, you know, I got a second because we only got like a minute left here. But give me some clear-cut steps.

What can we do? Because I think you've got a great point. Yeah. So, well, first of all, I mean, Elon Musk, his takeover of Twitter and what he's doing with it is one, example, but we need a lot more of those kinds of things. I've long advocated that's, you know, some billionaire or a group of billionaires purchase one of the networks because, unfortunately, most people still get their news from the networks. And so they're still getting fed a line. And people are afraid to buck the system because they get. They're

get marginalized by their own neighbors, friends, by their own family. And then the other, so we need to do more to build a viable network that will actually report the news, you know? And then the other thing that we need to do, which we're already doing, and Rhonda Sanchez is leading the way on that, is create a parallel society that goes back to our unconstitutional roots that enforces the law that clamps down on censorship and doesn't allow it. Jim, Jim, Simpson. I appreciate it.

Jim, I got to run because we're up against the hard break here. I appreciate you, though. Who was Carl Marks? He's the book, The Man, the Motives, and the Menace behind today's rampaging American Left. He's right about those networks. But what about a whole other type of network? A network of family friends sharing the truth with each other? And of course, there's always the blaze.

And for Glenbeck today, Justin Barkley on the Glenn Beck program. The Glenn Beck Friday. Well, you're out celebrating, maybe doing a little bit of the shopping. We appreciate you taking us with you or wherever you are. Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today. And we're covering some of the biggest stories. In fact, what is happening down in Arizona? Are they still counting votes?

I can't imagine. We'll get the latest in an update on that, plus some of the other biggest stories of the day. Speaking of accounting, where's all that money gone for the FTX folks? And, oh yeah, speaking of which, Ukraine, wanting an account of some of the money gone there. 10% for the big guy.

We'll be back in just a moment after this on the Glenback program. Welcome back in. You can follow me. You can hang out. You can tweet, whatever you want to call that, right on Twitter. at Mr. Justin Barkley, all the social media places as well. We will continue to spread the truth. By the way, speaking of the truth,

the narrative continues to crumble. It's a bit flaky, like a good pie crust ought to be, at least. Day after Thanksgiving. The narrative continues to crumble. We go out of Arizona and check in in just a little bit with the latest stories out of Arizona. But how about this? One in four Americans say they won't be having Thanksgiving dinner because they can't afford it.

Biden inflation, the economy, all of it, so bad that apparently it's wreaked real havoc on Thanksgiving dinner. Now, we had now, I do think costs were up. I didn't do a lot of the shopping for the Thanksgiving dinner. We go to a relative's friend's house. So I'm not like watching that, but you know, costs on everything, erupt, particularly on fuel, so gas, but mostly real problems with diesel. Why? Because with diesel is what powers to get everything to you.

Everything all across the country, in effect, across the globe. It runs on diesel, which I guess is, you know, now more than ever, the shortages and the issues with supply chain, but also production, oh, and refining, and all the other problems they've had with the supply and demand. It's just gone through the roof. You know, even in some place, you may have seen gas go down a little bit. Look at diesel.

It's really, it ought to be a concern for a lot of folks. But you just don't buy the diesel. You don't think about it, most folks, anyway. Biden inflation in Biden's economy, the real turkey is the prices. Stuffing up 69%. percent rolls up 22 percent pumpkin pie up 22 percent turkey which is the biggest item on your thanksgiving plate not surprisingly up 21 percent also up five dollars a fully a third of that

increase yeah uh everything you're you're paying more for everything this Thanksgiving 20 percent increases they say and literally across the board even on morning show they can't deny it turn to your charts in the story of Thanksgiving uh inflation is hitting people we're going to go out shopping today to buy their turkey and their mashed potatoes and everything else. Price is up 20% for a dinner this year, it sounds like almost. Yeah, yeah. It's pretty amazing. They're up 18%, up to $81.31, which you can see in the chart,

in the bar chart in the middle there, and was just a year ago, was 6872. This is to feed a family of 10. 20%. 20%. And you imagine a quarter of people say they're not going to have, they're just not going to eat. And it's not going to have Thanksgiving this year. And I guess they did it. But what about Black Friday?

You know, this is strange. We'll have to wait and see what the numbers look like. But this is strange. How about this? They think that Black Friday sales are going to be through the roof. People are going to come out in numbers this year more than ever before. And the reason they say this is because things are so bad. I don't mean the lap, but it's real.

things are so bad that people are coming out for the deals. They're trying to save some money. Now, that on top of everything else, we have this threat of this national rail strike. He thought the diesel was issued bad, with plane trains, automobiles, you name it. Diesel runs it.

National rail strike viewed as increasingly inevitable. Now, I thought Biden fixed this. Don't you remember before the election he had it all taken care of? He swooped in, just in time for the election. And there was this rail strike issue just was looming. And they said, oh, no, no, he's got it solved. He's got it solved. That's not the word now.

And it could come between now and Christmas, which could really put a big dent on the holiday cheer. National Freight Rail Strike from Breitbart here viewed as increasingly inevitable as four rail worker labor unions have rejected a tentative agreement with rail companies. And the way this works is I guess if any of them have a problem with it, if any of them have a real issue with it, then they're all off and they're all out. This could put a real damper on the holiday. You won't even get coal in your stocking. You'll get nothing. You remember that song?

You're getting nothing for Christmas. Do you remember that? Yeah. I hate to say it, but that might be, that might be a reality. But folks, it's not just Christmas presents. I know that's what they like to talk about. But more than anything, you're talking about food. Perishables.

Getting food to the plates of folks. I mean, real issues. And energy costs are through the roof. You know, we've seen all of that. but just in time for Thanksgiving dinner, I don't know if you saw this. They got mocked mercilessly for this over the holiday here. But Biden's folks, Ron Clayne, in fact,

White House Chief of Staff put out a handy dandy note. It's talking points. This is incredible to me. And it really shows you how bad things actually are. They gave supporters. They gave liberals. Folks are just real, real everyday, everyday average Joe's, not like the Joe that's in, in the residence. But they gave him, they gave him cheat sheets like they give him the cheat sheet.

You've seen those, right? Where they, they got to give him a sheet and what to say and where to go now, now stand over here. Now shake hands with the air, you know. You've seen him do it. I know a number of times. Well, they gave Americans a cheat sheet. talking points talking points for thanksgiving dinner this is what ron klan tweets one last item for your thanksgiving dinner some talking points when that uncle comes at you about potus oh and they are

just absolutely crazy again we were just talking about fuel tackling inflation and lowering costs. Everything on the table cost more, by the way. Everything. We just went through that. Some people not even willing to have Thanksgiving because I can't afford it. Gas prices down $1.35 since June.

Inflation is moderating. These are all just like these crazy lies that they say and they smile. Everybody drank in the Kool-Aid. This Kool-Aid is delicious. Unsnarling supply chains to lower the cost of goods. This is what I guess

Biden's been doing behind the scenes of them than sniffing hair and eating ice cream cones. This is what he's been doing. Saving Americans with hearing loss up to $3,000 on hearing aids. Give me a break. Tackling junk fees that cost Americans billions like surprise overdraft fees.

Uh-huh. Yeah, everybody's overdrafting right now because they got no money in their pockets. They got no money in their accounts. Well, it didn't go well. I'll just put it that way. The talking points did not persuade critics on social media. If somebody pulls this sheet out of Thanksgiving dinner,

you're fully justified in catapulting them into the nearest body of water. Ben Shapiro said, how about instructions for rigging 10,000-volt dining room chairs for anybody who whips out talking points at Thanksgiving dinner? David Burge said on Twitter, Lots of these, all on the Blaze, you can find, by the way, if you want to go check that out, Theblaze.com. Biden offered his little Thanksgiving holiday. Did you see, and I guess he's in Nantucket?

Did you see the parade call? It did not go well. I watch this live. And I guess they get to Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. They're marching down the street and they go to this woman who is a reporter there standing on the street, the side of the street, and she's supposed to get a call for the president. and it does not go well. Well, it goes as bad as well as you can expect.

I'll play that for you coming up next, and you can join me speaking of those tweets over on Twitter and anywhere else on social media at Mr. Justin Barclay. It's back in just moment for Beck, Berkeley on the Glymba program. Oh, this wasn't the craziest thing, the worst thing that he did over the break so far. Biden making the call to the parade route

and it goes about as well as you can expect. It's pure chaos. Dear Porter with a look on her face. It's just silent. She said hello and there's nothing happening. The band's marching and playing going on behind her. She's just got this look on her face. Deering headlights, like, oh gosh, is he fair?

I don't think I can hear you. Can you hear me, Mr. President? Yeah. Can you hear him? That's him and Dr. Jill. in the background and they're talking to each other like, I don't know what to do here. What?

Like the first time they've encountered a telephone. Yeah. Hello? Happy Thanksgiving. Mr. President, are you there? I should, I should not be laughing. This is not funny. By the way, you remember that,

the commercial, the big political commercial they did back in the day? Who do you want? Four o'clock in the morning, getting that phone call or whatever it was. You remember that? Who do you want to? What was it? 10 o'clock in the morning getting the call for the Mason? This guy can't even take that call.

And he has Dr. Jill right besides handlers right there with him. And Dr. Jill can't even. They can't figure this phone call. Think about it. Listen. He's also got the nuclear codes. Can you hear me, Mr. President? Are you interested?

Yeah. Hello? Happy Thanksgiving, Mr. President. Are you there? Yeah, yeah. We're here. We're here. Oh, happy Thanksgiving.

I was so worried this call wasn't going to go through. How are you? Just, just worried about that call. Don't worry about the nuclear codes or any of the other call. It's just, it's unthinkable. It's unthinkable. All of it. it's it this is the commander-in-chief the leader of the free world and they can't figure out how to work of phone now listen I understand he's older that these phone calls and the networks and all that stuff it can be tough I've you know I've we're doing one now you know I'm here in Grand Rapids Michigan at W-O-O-D it's Wood Radio West Michigan and somehow we're connected via the

miracle of modern technology to Dallas, Texas and the Glenbeck studios there, and they've got, you know, Mercury Studios. We've got everything, you know, wired in, and sometimes it's tough. I get it. But this is even, he was asked something, I think that this is even more disturbing. Because he doesn't know what he's saying, and he doesn't know where he is half the time anyway. But here he is saying he wants to ban semi- automatic weapons, basically.

That's essentially what he's saying here. Semi-automatic. Now, if you're not a gun person, let me just explain to you. Nearly every handgun that's out there, nearly every, you know, there's some revolvers that are being used in folks to carry, but nearly every handgun that's being

used, whether it be the, you know, the police officer, or just the average Joe that's carrying a, chances are pretty much going to be a semi-automatic. What does that mean? It just means that you pull the trigger, one bullet comes out, pull the trigger, another bullet comes out,

as many as you have inside your magazine. Now, you know, I'm not an expert in the field, but I think I know a little bit more, at least than Joe about this particular subject. He's saying that those weapons are a problem. What is going back to the muskets? The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick. It's just sick.

It has no, no social redeeming value. Zero, none. Say that to the woman who was able to stop an attacker. She was able to fend off an attacker and stop a rape in progress. you're saying there's no social, no redeeming value of these weapons, people being able to defend themselves? Say that to the woman who is

being threatened. Domestic violence with an ex. It is the great equalizer. She's able to protect herself. Say that in any number of the cities. Democrat run, blue cities, Philadelphia, Detroit, St. Louis, all across the country in these liberal strongholds where crime is through the roof.

Tell them that they don't have a right to defend themselves or their children? There's no social redeeming value? The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick. It's just sick. It has no, no social redeeming value. Zero, none. Not a single solitary rationale for it. I wonder if he's going to instruct a secret service to stop carrying them as well.

I just, what do we go back to swords? Should we, should we duel with swords or something or knives? I mean, what, what is he asking people to do? Maybe a slingshot. Maybe that's what we should, we should use for now on. Like I said, the parade audio was bad, but not nearly as bad. and by the way, he probably misspoke there. He probably didn't.

I don't, honestly, I don't know what he meant because I don't think he knew what he meant. But he's standing in front of a fire station while he's having his conversation. And I wonder, you know, I wonder what the ultimate goal and the ultimate plan is. Here in Michigan, I can tell you, we have a, for the first time in decades,

completely Democrat-controlled, executive, House, and Senate. And one of the first issues they plan on tackling our horrible governor here, Gretchen Whitmer, is guns. Gun control. So how do you fend off the crazy, creepy weirdo that wants to sniff your child's hair? Apparently, he won't be with a semi-automatic weapon. That is, that's not how he wants it done. I guess we're going back to the sticks and stones.

Yeah, we're checking in with Arizona coming up as well. Folks are going to get a little bit of a report of what's happening down in Arizona. I think they're still counting votes. Yeah. How's that possible? The Glenn Back program. Never notice. Any of these folks that they want to ban guns or any of these people in Washington,

DC, any of these folks who are in, let's say, let's call the regressive left. You know, any of these people, they have a better idea of what you want to do with your life and what needs to be done and they want to tell you what to do. Any of these people, none of these folks are experts. We were told to follow the experts for years. Now, it's been, follow the experts, listen to the experts. Oh, of course, we know what that means. Let's listen to their experts.

They're approved experts spouting the approved narrative Listen to those folks Don't they'll pay no attention So the actual experts You know you get some guy like Joe Biden Is out there talking about Banning all semi-automatic

Weapons As he puts it You know basically he can't believe He can't believe That these things are still allowed out there And of course you know what he meant He probably meant automatic He probably did, but I don't know.

I don't even know if he knows what he meant. The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick. It's just sick. And have your security give them up for it. All these people who are calling for this, they ought to set the example, have their security, give them up first. Barclay and for Beck today. No, it's never going to happen, and it shouldn't happen.

They ought to be secured. But you also ought to have a chance in the right to be. able to defend yourself as well. This is just reasonable, isn't it? Yeah, it's what we're talking about. These things are just, speaking of unreasonable, though, out in Arizona, where I still believe I don't, I think they're still counting votes. So somebody just made the comment and a message to me.

And by the way, if you want to send me a message, I'm at Mr. Justin Barkley everywhere on social media. You can text me. You can go to my website, Justin Barkley.com. how to get a hold of me. Justin Barclay.com. But somebody just sent me a message saying, you know, Ryan Seacrest,

he can count 12 million votes in a commercial break, but Arizona is still counting? It really, it's just, it's beyond the imagination. How is this even possible? You know, of course, these are the same people, story after story of problem. when they went to vote the same day, on election day, story after story, major issues. It's so, it's so blatant.

And unfortunately, one of the things that it accomplishes, one of the things that it really does is it disenfranchises people. Carrie Lake saying, hey, we are still in the fight. We will not give up. You got to love the fact that she's willing to fight. and that she calls it like it is. Hey, Arizona, Kerry Lake here. I wanted to reach out to you to let you know that I am still in this fight with you.

For two years, I've been sounding the alarm about our broken election system here in Arizona. And this past week has confirmed everything we've been saying. When we called for Katie Hobbs to recuse herself over a year ago, they ridiculed us. It turns out we were right. The Fox was guarding the hen house. And because of that, voters have been disembarked. enfranchised. When we raised concerns and I filed a lawsuit months ago to get rid of the electronic voting machines, they said we were crazy. Well, it turns out we were right. On election day,

nearly half of all polling locations had problems with tabulating machines and printers. Malfunctioning tabulation machines forced voters to wait in line for hours to exercise their sacred right to vote. I talked to voters who waited in line for hours. One man told me he went to a location and there was a three-hour line because the tabulators weren't working. He drove 15 miles to another location and the printers weren't working. He drove another 15 miles and was finally able to cast his vote, but he's not sure it counted. Now, how many people just gave up and said, I'm going home? How many people that came, and this is all same day, day of voting, these tend to be more

Republican voters and particularly Kerry Lake voters. How many of them were turned away? Story after story after story. There should never be an issue with any of the transparency or accountability when it comes to elections whatsoever.

I'm not denying there was an election. Just asking questions. I think we all ought to be able to do that. We can't ask questions anymore. That's a problem. Well, I've got a big question. What the heck is going on in Maricopa County? The Maricopa County recorder, Stephen Ritcher, as a PAC,

it's a political action committee. He's raising money. This guy has a PAC. He's one of the founding members of the partisan PAC that is supporting basically never Trumpers. It's an anti-Trump pack. Now, he claims to be a Republican, probably from the McCain side of things down there. Calls it the pro-democracy Republican pack.

Maricopa County recorder Stephen Richer coming under increasing scrutiny after the botched election in Maricopa County, leading some the question his founding and operation of that pack. the state admission to support pro-democracy Arizona Republicans who reject conspiracy theorists and demagoguery from candidates who maintain the 2020 presidential election in Arizona was stolen. Well, if you believe that or if you want to support that, you probably shouldn't be running elections. Is it legal? No.

It looks like for all intents and purposes, maybe it was. Should it be? It's a whole other question. The story of the Arizona Sun-Times brings up the point that at the end of the very least, it's unethical. At the very least, there should never be a question about our elections. Blood has been spilled. People have died for this right for us to take part in these elections. And so we had originally planned on talking to Secretary of State candidate nominee Mark Finch.

We have a hard time getting a hold of him. If we do get him on the phone, we'll get an update on what's happening down there. But the story out of the Arizona Sun-Times says, while Richard's PAC claims to support Republicans, it has received money from a man who donates to almost exclusively Democrats. Well, wait a second. Wait a minute here. What?

Oh, this is bipartisan. non-partisan. Franchus Nafaghi gave $20,000 to his pack, $60,000 to the Arizona Democrat Party in 5,300 Democrat Arizona Senator or Secretary of State Katie Hobbs running for governor. By the way, you talk about an appearance of impropriety. Why is this woman who is the Secretary of State

allowed to run the election in which she is running for governor. Now, if it's not against the law, that's one thing. But these folks who claim that there's nothing to see here and that everyone who thinks that there is is just some wacky tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorists, every one of those folks is just a little off in the head, so to speak. She's running her own election. She had the opportunity to step down. But of course, she wouldn't, and they're still counting the votes.

Our election officials failed us miserably. What happened to Arizonans on election day is unforgivable. Tens of thousands of Maricopa County voters were disenfranchised. Now, I'm busy here collecting evidence and data. Rest assured, I have assembled the best and brightest legal team, and we are exploring every avenue to correct the many wrongs that have been done this past week. I'm doing everything in my power to write these wrongs. My resolve to fight for you is higher than ever.

This movement started in Arizona, and it quickly expanded to all 50 states. It's a movement of mama bears and papa bears and students and Arizonans who love this country, who want secure borders, who want schools that prepare their children for the real opportunities that are out there. It's a movement of Arizonans who want safe streets. once again and want the drug crisis to come to an end. It's a movement of Arizonaans who want prosperity and the pursuit of happiness. That movement is stronger than it ever has been. And I can promise you one thing.

This fight to save our republic has just begun. I tell you what, she says she's not going anywhere. I love you, Arizona, and I love you America. I love the fact that Katie, or that Carrie Lake is in the fight, and she won't back down. I love that. I just, I got to tell you, folks, this is a tough situation. How do you fix? Well, some of the things that are happening behind the scenes, we'll talk about.

But it's not just in Arizona. There are other places that things are moving. In fact, near the border. We'll get the latest update on that. Should we get Secretary of State Canada, Mark Fentgenham on the line? We'll get the update from Arizona as well. Sparkley and for Beck today, we continue on the Glenn Beck program back after this. Sign up for the free newsletter today at glenbeck.com.

Yep, it is Parkley back in for back today on the Glennback program, AAA 727 B-E-C-K. That's 888-727 back. You can join the program at any time. Lots happening down south in Arizona. We just touched on a few things and updates over the break. But did you see the latest at the border? Kevin McCarthy, who hopes to be the speaker.

or the House has gone down, GOP leader, going down to the border, demanding the resignation of Secretary of Homeland Security, Majorcas, he says he ought to resign or be impeached. If Secretary Mayorkas does not resign, House Republicans will investigate every order, every action, and every failure will determine whether we can begin impeachment inquiry. Determine whether we tell them.

A little bit stronger, I would like to say, you can resign or face impeachment. He's been a complete failure. They tell you over and over again, that the border there's nothing to see here, everything's fine,

name Alejandro Mayorkas. The secretary ought to be impeached. Resign or face impeachment hearings. Those are the choices. Kat McCamick, the representatives from Florida, talking down at the border about what she's witnessed. Good afternoon. I probably represent the Sunshine State, and a lot of people have asked me,

what are you doing in Texas? Well, this is not my first border trip. I've been here several times. And every time I think that it's going to get better, it's actually getting worse. See, on my very first trip to the border, I met a nine-year-old little girl. She tried to tell me her name, but she couldn't. Her vocal cords had given out because she was screaming so loud while being raped repeatedly by cartel members. Folks, it's horrific.

what is happening on the border and none of this none of this is really getting the attention or the coverage that it deserves is an absolute humanitarian crisis and the humanitarian crisis that can be solved

but for political reasons Democrats, Mayorkas the rest of it. By the way, the same guy who's colluding with big tech to shut you down and censor you has got the border wide open. Senator Josh Holly giving him, raking him over the coals the other day. Without objection, I'd like to enter this article called The Truth Cops published in The Intercept.

Here's my question then. If you're not censoring speech and if you're not treating Americans as domestic terrorists, then why is it that you're pressuring big tech to treat American citizens as if they're threats to the homeland? Why are you pressuring them to censor speech? Let me just take a look at some new documents that have come to light that show what your administration is doing, this administration is doing to censor speech. Let's take a look at this email from July 16th, 2021. It's over my shoulder here. Facebook emailing HHS saying, I know our team's met today to better understand the scope of what the White House expects from us on misinformation going forward. You familiar with that email?

No. Let's try another one. We all are now, by the way. And guess who else is? In fact, Elon Musk has said something very interesting on Twitter. We have it all. What happened here at Twitter is very concerning, and it's all starting to come out. Some good news filled in some of the very strangest times.

It looks like the truth, just like it always does, eventually sees the light of day. The truth will set you free. more of it. Barkley in for Beck today on a Beck Friday. Follow me at Twitter and everywhere else at Mr. Justin Barkley. This is the Glennback program. Is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glennback.

It's Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on a Beck Friday. You're shopping, getting some things done. I'm coming to you from the beautiful and unseasonably warm. at least for this time of year. West Michigan, Grand Rapids, high atop downtown where the sun is shining and it's always an honor, a privilege to be with you. We're going to tackle some big subjects coming up this hour.

We'll check in with our folks down in Arizona, the latest in the election. Down there where they continue to count votes. We'll get that latest plus talk, ESG and FTX. All these acronyms? They seem pretty benign, but they really ought to be concerning what's happening with your money.

We talk about it. this on the Glenn Beck program. So all these acronyms really sound pretty like that sound kind of I don't know, sort of out of touch. They just sound, you know, that's simple, but I don't really know what is ESG?

What's an FTX? What are all these different things? We'll talk about some of these things, but basically let me boil it down to this. It's your money and it's how folks can control you and our country. And FTX is a big crypto company that has

absolutely crumbled in the last several weeks or so. The corruption has been exposed. The things that were happening behind the scenes continue to come out. We're going to talk about some of those things, including ESG, with a good friend from Michigan here, Congressman Bill Hisinga, Michigan's 4th District, he was just elected. Appreciate you being here with us, Congressman. How are you? Hey, Justin, good to be with you, and I hope you had a good turkey day.

We were so close with the lions yesterday. Oh, don't even. That was heartbreaking. While we're on heartbreaking issues like ESG and FTAX, we'll throw the lions in on that one. Speaking of heartburn, it's Barkley and for Beck today, and we are in Michigan, yes, and, you know, we had a little bit of the lines.

We were used to bit of that. But look, as you bring up a point, there are some heartbreaking issues. FTX, one of these crazier stories, and you're well positioned to talk about these things because of the committee that you're on, Congressman. But let's start with FTX and what happened there. It appears now, I don't know, they paint this picture, and it certainly ought to be looked into, and hopefully you'll get some oversight on this, but it appears now that taxpayer money from Americans was sent over Ukraine.

In some ways, Ukraine sent money to FTX, and then FTX, this cryptocurrency run by this guy that looks like he's homeless. He's got this crazy hair. This guy named Sam Bankman-F-F-E-S-G, all these acronyms. Anyway, Sam Bankman-F-F-E-S-G, and he sends it off to all these Democrats, and apparently is funding these campaigns. And, you know, this at the very least looks like a complete disaster. Yeah.

Yeah, it is, if Enron and... And Bertie Madoff had a baby. It would be named Sam Bankman-Fried. I mean, this is bad business, but then clearly it looks like an emerging picture of just outright fraud. And, you know, you mentioned the money that SBF, as he's referred to, what he put into the political system, that was $38 million directly into primarily Democrat causes and super PACs. Yeah. That's right behind George Soros.

He's the number two Democrat donor behind George Soros. So we're going to be seeing a lot of names emerge. You know, there's been a little bit of a battle between the agriculture sector, which is viewing crypto. as a commodity, and our area, which in the financial services realm, views it more as a security. So the Securities and Exchange Commission, led by Gary Gensler, has been trying to get in there. A number of others have, but you're going to be seeing some names emerge, including, I believe, a prominent senator from our home state of Michigan, who happened to be the chair of the Ag Committee, who were very big beneficiaries from this.

But it's unfortunate because the technology that lies below crypto, this blockchain technology is the technology of the future. What Sam Bankman-Fried did is set back any acceptance into that. And frankly, it's, I think, going to be a bigger call for more governmental regulation in a space that has been fighting to have as light a touch as possible. But, you know, this is just outright fraud and would be illegal whether there was regulation or not. And speaking of which, you know, obviously the corruption that looks like took place here. I mean, there are pictures of video and whatnot of, you know,

Congresswoman Maxine Waters blowing kisses to this guy. There's a list of donors of folks who he donated to. I mean, these are stories that people are going to continue to. hear about. Hopefully you get some oversight on this and break down and hold these people accountable. The next thing is ESG. And honestly, Glenn has touched on this quite a bit. He's been fighting this battle to tell people what's going on and how they can fight back. But ESG, if we can break this down, it's a scoring system that right now companies and financial institutions and Eventually, people are going to get scored on this, too.

They're already looking at some of these sort of pilot programs. You get sort of a new credit score. And the scoring system is all based on things that have really nothing to do with performance or it's all based on social, environmental, and then what governance. It's all social justice and things like that. can you break this down and and give people a little bit of a glimpse at what you're dealing with there. Yeah, and first and foremost, I do want to give a shout out to Glenn Beck for doing this as well. I found myself in the car during the campaign, driving around, listening to him, yelling, yes, yes, as he was talking about it on radio because this is, this is sort of that sneaky Pete issue that's been coming in that is going to have a massive impact on all of our lives. In fact, on Tuesday, the Department of Labor just came out and finalized a rule saying that pension funds, your 401ks and others, really don't have to be so worried about a return or materiality anymore because they're now going to be able to factor in this environmental and social and governance matrix that, as you point out, is really all about control and about how we,

how we bend society and the economy into the will of the government. And, you know, the watchword in investing has always been materiality, materiality, materiality, meaning is this issue material to you as an investor? And what the Securities and Exchange Commission has done now, and now what the Department of Labor has done, has set all of that aside, and it really is more about the environment, but not just the environment. It's also diversity and inclusion, and that's the social and the government side of this. And this is going to be huge, and it will literally, certainly in the short run, have an impact on returns and investment.

If you have people pulling out of energy companies, for example, who are having some record returns, you know, this could have a very detrimental long-term effect as well, which means you're going to have to work longer and before you can retire if you're not getting the kind of return and the kind of, you know, benefit off of your investments. Congressman Bill Hisinga with us right now out of Michigan and Congressman ESG, as you mentioned, will completely flip everything upside down from meritocracy, merit-based hey, you're going to perform, you're going to perform, we're going to see how well you do in the marketplace, too. We really have our fingers on the levers and pulling the strings of every area of life.

It's a way of centralizing control in a lot of ways, and this is very scary because this will cripple this country. And particularly small businesses, the backbone of this nation, because in order to do business with us, other businesses, you'll have to dance to whatever tune. I saw Biden wants to sit a billion dollars in reparations over the climate. China is not getting involved in this? But, you know, are you green? Is your business green? Are you socially?

Are you, is your rainbow flag flying outside your door? Are you doing all the, are you checking out all the boxes that you need to everything? You've got to dance to jump through the hoops in order to get your score up? Because otherwise, if not, suppliers won't deal with you because they're scoring. will be affected, and this will crush the economy here in America and the little guy. Yeah, by the way, FTX going back to that first question, FDX had one of the highest ESG scores that out there. Of course they did.

It's all a farce. It is. That's it, Justin. Let me give you a very specific example that I think everybody listening will be able to relate to, all right? Securities and Exchange Commission has said, you know, we have to be so worried about the environment that we are going to not only require companies to report their scope one and scope two environmental emissions, which means what did they directly produce and what has been used

to deliver their products and that kind of thing, right? Totally makes sense for an energy company, a power company, something like that. They want what's called scope three. Now, the scope three is then all of the suppliers to those companies that are producing this energy or this product. All right. It doesn't even have to be energy. So here's the specific example. Gerber baby food. Gerber baby food happens to be headquartered in my current district in Fremont, Michigan.

Gerber is owned by Nestle, right? Big international corporation publicly traded. So Nestle is going to be required if these rules go through to go not only, to look at their own footprint, which could be literally delivery vehicles and all the other things that they have to do. But who then is taking their product out and delivering it to the stores? What is their environmental footprint? But oh, wait, under scope three, you have to actually go back to the farmers who are producing the carrots and the peas and the corn that go into the baby food jars to have them figure out what their environmental impact is, not just,

just on their fuel use, but it could be their fertilizers, all those things. And as one of these guys said to me, he said, compliance department, you're looking at it, right? I mean, these are small independent family-owned farms that are now suddenly getting caught up into this massive movement, and it's going to have a huge effect. Congressman Bill Heising, you mentioned, and this is something that will dramatically transform life as you know it here in America if we don't stop it. What do you recommend? What can people do? I mean, does it work when people call their congressman? Yeah, it does. I mean, don't give up on that. Even if it's as hard-headed as they sometimes may feel like that that does affect people, all right?

And the staff, be reasonable, but talk to them. And you also need to be talking to your investment advisors, right? whether it's whether you're in a I don't care if you're in a union pension I don't care if it's a 401k or whether you're doing something independently talk to talk to your investment advisors to say hey how how can our voice and our message get get through on this because it should be about return how do you maximize return for that investment not just about all all this other stuff the E the S and the G that the government's talking about so people have got to have their voices be heard on this. And that's why I'm glad Glenn has been talking about this because it needs to get volume, both this one goes to 11, like crank it up, but also the

amount of communication that that policymakers have in. And both the Department of Labor and the Securities and Exchange Commission have had comment periods. And so if people are really wonky and want to go in and do that, that's another way of getting their voice to be heard. Congressman Bill High is a good fight the good fight. Appreciate you talking with us and taking some time today on a Glynebec program. Justin, thanks. Appreciate it. Happy Thanksgiving. Talk to you soon. Yeah, folks, we continue the fight. What else can you do? Glenn's got a couple of tips. We'll get into that after this. Barclay in for back today in the Glembaq program. Some of the things that Glenn has talked about when it comes to

ESG scores and how to fight back. Justin Barkley in for Glimback today on the Glemba program. I agree with a lot of this. First of all, is not. You have to make people aware. So you're going to continue. When this podcast goes live and it will go up wherever you get your podcast, the Glenbeck program or glenbeck.com, take it. Take a little piece of this. Share it with the friends, relatives, family. Make sure that they know.

It kind of make sure that folks are aware and that they understand what is its stake and what we're facing. Put your money in a local bank, Glenn Beck says. Why is that important? Well, all these other big banks, they're kind of really in line with you. other. They want these ESG scores. It looks like they're pushing them in some ways or they're falling in line. But if your money is in a local bank or a local credit union, then you know where it is, you know what they're doing with it. You can have conversations. The truth, the answer is

decentralization. Whether it comes to questions about election integrity, all the elections, are they on the up and up or not? Well, the truth is, is that that's all about centralization of power. We got to get away from, you know, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, in D.C. running things or some bond villain lookalike out of Davos or somewhere else and get right back to where folks are making decisions in your own backyard. Not places and far off places and by people you'll never meet who have never met you and never been to where you live.

This is all reasonable. This is all common sense. What we're talking about here. This is nothing new. You and I ought to have the opportunity to make decisions for ourselves and our families. Not some other way around where somebody. else looking down from their ivory tower shouting down at its peasants. That's not how it works.

So put your money in a local bank. Like chairs where everybody knows, you walk in, you know the people behind the counter. Stop doing businesses with corporations that support ESG. And here's another piece of that. It's not just doing businesses with folks. Make sure you let them know. that you intend to stop doing business because of their practices and how they support this ESG nonsense. And then the congressman just mentioned it, but these pension funds or where your money is invested,

have conversations with those people, the people that are doing the investing. You have conversation with you. You tell them you don't want your money in any of these funds or support. any of this ESG nonsense. You've got to get educated, though. We all have to. Listen, we're always in reactive mode. We've got to get ahead of it,

and we've got to be proactive. There's still chance to stop this stuff. We've got to get in the ballgame now. Listen, I just had about a month, well, three weeks ago, our little baby girl, our second, was born. I got two daughters now. She's absolutely perfect.

But our kids, it's four. them and our grandkids. It's for their future. It's not just about how you and I are going to be able to live out our lives or retirement or whatever any of that looks like down the road. It's about making sure that we leave them a country that even halfway resembles what this nation was and is. The greatness. The restoration. Oh, it's possible. But together, we must stand up and we must fight. And we'll go down to Arizona where they're doing just that. Secretary of State candidate Mark Fincham is on the line.

We're talking to him about the latest in Arizona after this. It's Barclay, Justin Barclay, and for Glenbeck today on the Glenn Beck program. What the heck is happening in Arizona? Specifically, Maricopa County. It's Justin Barclay and for Glenn Beck today in the Glenn Beck program. to answer that question, we decided to go straight to Arizona, straight to the source and see if we could figure this out. Here's one man who said that he's been voting for 30 years in Arizona, and he just went to check the doubt of his ballot, and they said he didn't vote. He can't figure it out.

Hi. I've been a resident of Arizona for 30 years. I've been a lifelong of registered Republican. I voted in every election, primary and regular. I voted on Tuesday morning at the holding place. Everything seems to go fine. I go online and the Maricopa County reporter's offices. I didn't vote.

Yeah. What? By the way, he's not the only one. There was so many issues in Maricopa County specifically, but all throughout the state, what the heck is going on there? Joining us right now is a candidate for Secretary of State in Arizona. Arizona State Rep.

Mark Finney. and appreciate you being here with us today. How are you, Mark? I'm good, Justin. Thank you for having me on the show. Yeah, this is, Arizona has turned into a steaming garbage heap of an election. It's not just Maricopa County. In fact, there's video that came out a couple of days ago of an elections worker in Pima County with boxes of ballots that they're running through a tabulator. And it was, the video was just starkly reminiscent of Georgia, Bolton County, where they kept swapping things back and forth and counting things over and over and over again. So, and then, of course, we've got Apache County where suddenly they have a significant increase

in voters. Just they need to have more time to count votes. Okay, this is one of the smaller counties in the state and they need more time than Maricopa County. Sure. Yeah. I'm not buying that one. So we've got a – Are they still counting, Mark?

Are they still counting in different counties in Arizona? Last I knew there are a couple of counties that are still counting what are called provisional ballots. Those are ballots where somebody said, I haven't voted yet, but the polls say they have. I mean, we've got – there's so many different elements to this that it would take two hours to explain it to you. So I'll try and be really brief. I understand. So the piece that you just played, we have hundreds of people who are making the same assertion. I've seen it.

So to your listeners, if you are an Arizona voter and you are being told that you didn't vote, you go up and you can check most of the counties, you can go up and check to make sure that your ballot has been received and counted, if you're one of those people like this gentleman that you just played the clip up, I need to hear from you because. that is a violation of HAVA, which is the Help America Vote Act, and that is a clear disenfranchisement of a voter. Yeah. And I would love to hear from you at mark at votefinchum.com, because we probably will be helping people get connected with an attorney that can file a class action lawsuit for that. Mark, what about these people who went on election day and were told that their vote, well, they didn't go through the machine, or they were told to go somewhere.

else or they just waited in line hours. I mean, on election day, these issues, some of the things that I've seen and heard in the videos, I mean, it's just I can't imagine that in America, somebody told me earlier, you know, Orion Seacrest can count 12 million votes on American Isle during the commercial break, but we can't get it together to get these votes counted on election day like this. It's either just complete incompetence like we've never seen on a scale ever before in the history of this country or it's intentional, and neither one is good. Let me lay out the theory of the case for you, Justin.

There were no problems with early voting. So we actually have election month, not election day here, which that in itself is a massive problem. But people, you know, vote by mail has become ensconced in Arizona. In fact, 80% of the voting I used to vote by mail, did for, I think, 20-some elections. until I realized that the chain of custody for the ballots is broken the minute I let go of it. And it goes to somebody else other than an election official.

And of course, the Guardian wanted to make a big deal out of that. It's like, hey, only an imbecile would continue to do something that they realize is a problem. But we've got all of the early voting. They had zero problems with tabulation of those ballots. Now, keep in mind, that is predominantly Democrat voters. Most Republican voters vote the day of the election. They go to the polls and whether they have a mail-in ballot or they go to the polls and they get an on-demand-printed ballot, most Republicans go to the polls. Suddenly, on election day, the tabulation equipment goes down.

It's either not working. It's not recording votes. I've talked to some people that had to put their ballot in two different machines as many as 15, 20 times. And finally, they were told, oh, you're going to have to put it in your drawing. three and we'll count it later. Well, keep in mind, that creates a queue of people that are waiting three, four, five hours to vote. And finally, you know, folks are just like, I can't wait anymore.

I've got to go back to work or whatever their issues. So we know that there are tens of thousands because this happened at 60 some percent of the voting centers and it cropped its head up at like 8.30 in the morning. How do you open the polls at 7 o'clock in the morning? and at 8.30 you've run out of toner for the printers. It's unthinkable. That's massive incompetence, at least. But I think there is growing evidence that this was a planned event.

And yeah, I'm going to say it. I think that this whole thing was planned to suppress the, quote, mega vote, you know, make America great again. I don't know why people have a problem with that. Even Republicans here in state of Arizona have a problem with that. In fact, Stephen Richard, the Maricopa County recorder, a Republican, allegedly, Bill Gates, Maricopa County supervisor in charge of elections, a Republican, or so he claims, both of them formed a PAC in 2021 to see to it that, quote, MAGA candidates were hampered from

making it through the election. Tell me that there isn't some kind of bias, that there isn't a foam on the scale of election. fairness there. I don't understand that. And I can't understand how Katie Hobbs is allowed to run this election in which she's she's competing for governor. I mean, it's it's unfair. Exactly. Well, and many of the things that were reported, she should have been all over. Instead, she was silent. Now, I've got to, I can't confirm this, but I'm told through the grapevine that her staff has been scrambling to put together a transition team because they had no idea that they would win. Okay.

So there are some things, some anomalies in this that it's certain, guaranteed certain, that this was a fraud of an election and we will be going to court and we have to wait until the case is what they call ripe. So until Maricopa County and some of the other counties certify their election, we can't go to court because the best we could do is a stay to keep them from counting and and certifying the election. Well, all that does is make this a very protracted thing. So we want them to certify because then we can go into court and say, okay, you've certified an uncertifiable election. The election in Maricopa County is irredeemably compromised because of the disenfranchisement

of tens of thousands of voters. And we don't even know how many people, because Just think about this. You send your ballot to the county and you expect that they're going to do what they're charged to do. The fact that the gentleman you played at the opening of this segment just happened to go up and take a look, how many people don't even think to go do that? They just trusted that the government did its job. So I'm very concerned about this. And, you know, if you've got an Arizona voter listening to this,

thing, they need to validate whether or not their ballot was received and counted. That's probably the biggest piece of advice I can give folks right now. And if it wasn't, if you mailed one in or you went in person and your record, particularly in Maricopa County, is not showing that you cast a vote. We need to hear from you because you can be part of a class action suit. Mark, how can folks stay in touch with you or find out more about what's happening in Arizona, particularly stay plugged in on this? There's a couple of ways. One, they can go to votefinchum.com.

That's V-O-T-E, F-like Frank, I-N, like Nancy, C-H-E-M-L-E-M-like Mark. If they click on the news tab, we're trying to curate all of the news that's coming in, but there are so many developments that are going fast and furious. The other thing they can do, obviously listen to this program, but check out Gateway Pundit and Western Journal. Those are two organizations that are covering this like Ugly on an Ape. So, and the legacy media, they're not going to cover this because they're perfectly happy with the idea that Arizona is a, quote, allegedly blue state. I'm here to tell you it's not.

And what has happened here is a terrible assault on suffrage. The other thing folks can do if they want to contact me directly, they can just send an email to Mark at, that's MRK, at boatfinsham.com. now we are trying to raise money for litigation so there's a donate button on that website if people want to help us out we would appreciate it but Arizona is ground zero for turning the tide on election fraud and that's what this is it's a massive fraud I cannot believe that this was unintentional either way it's not a pretty picture intentional or irresponsible I don't know the best word for it it's something Mark thank you so much for taking the the time to join us, the Secretary of State candidate in Arizona,

Mark Fitcham, the Arizona State rep. Thank you, my friend. Thank you, Justin. Have a great day. You too. God bless. Folks, I, uh, I got to, I got to tell you, it's stuff like this that is continually, especially for the election denier crowd,

nobody's denying their elect. I don't know that you could call this an election, although at this point, nobody's denying their election, but boy, we got some questions. You know what? In Arizona, they got some splaining to do, don't they? Particularly in Maricopa County. More spaining from folks like Fauci coming up in just a bit. We'll take a quick break, and we're back on the Glenn Beck program after this.

It's Barclay in for Beck. This is the Glenn Back program. It's so much to get through a never-enough time filling in for Glenn Beck today in the Glenn-back program. It's Justin Barkley. Appreciate you being here. on a Beck Friday. Justin Barclay, B-A-R-C-L-A-Y, Justin Barclay.com.

Love to stay in touch with you. But before we get out of here, there are some Tony Fauci pieces. There's some Fauci news, and I like to call this a Rona report, and a little bad medicine. But Fauci, before everything kicked off in the Thanksgiving festivities, he held,

I don't know if you saw this. It was the last big, hurrah at the White House, the last big press conference. And he was again. Yeah, I had that I saw this news trending the other day and I had to check the date. Wait a minute. Is this real? Is this new? No, he was telling people that should go get tested and boosted and mask 2022 for Thanksgiving. First of all, everybody should be vaccinated and boosted with flu and with whether or not you wear a mask or another thing we shouldn't underestimate is testing. So when we're gathering at a family gathering for Thanksgiving or for Christmas or for any other

holiday as we get into the winter, it makes sense that you might want to get a test that day before you come into a place. Test. You might want to go get a test before you come in, you might want to go get a test before you come in, you know, to meet your family and have the Thanksgiving and eat the turkey. Yeah, I'm not the only turkey this year. Don't forget, as we say farewell, Fauci, you're fired. Don't forget, as we say farewell to Fauci,

the man once said, I am the science. And by the way, how about the Rona report? From the High Priest of Health, St. Anthony of Wuhan, telling people that you're going to go out and get jabbed because if you don't get your 17th booster or whatever they're on now, listen, whatever you choose to do is your thing. But if you don't get to 17th boo, well, you're the real danger.

In fact, if you haven't been boosted or jabbed at all, you're the real problem, he said. And unfortunately, unfortunately, however you look at this. Vaccinated Americans, the headline from Fox News, a majority of COVID deaths for the first time in August. 58% of COVID deaths were jabbed. The number are still climbing. China has record COVID numbers in a country.

They had a zero COVID policy. Zero COVID. Many of the people there are never even been exposed. They've never even been exposed to it. So who knows what happens there? and I've been following Eric Schmidt. If you haven't seen on Twitter, he's been tweeting some great things.

One thing in particular, he just tweeted, was Fauci and the rest of them. They all had to be deposed the other day for this lawsuit, the attorney's general from several states. Fauci deposition tidbit in February 20, he emailed a friend advising her mask were ineffective, confirmed again on March 31st, then on April 3rd,

he's out of it, Maths should be worn. Even though he couldn't cite a single study to prove it. Mandates followed, lives ruined, he said, but the good news, Fauci is done. Gone. Fired. Follow me for more good news. I've got a good newsletter.

I'd love to send you things that may put a smile on your face and keep up with you after all. Justin Barclay.com, B-A-R-C-L-A-Y for my good newsletter. and also at Mr. Justin Barclay, all the social media places. It's always a pleasure and an honor to be asked to fill in for Glenn in the big chair. Make it a great weekend. And God bless. The Glenn Back Program.
