It's a Glenn Beck program. Today, I have really good news and sincerely, really good news. I think the pendulum is swinging back.

I think common sense is beginning to take hold. It is beginning to fall apart for this administration and for the progressive left all over the world, not just here in America. I'm going to share that good news all the way through the show. There's several stories. but just know now is the time to keep up the pressure now is the time to really be involved

let your voice be heard don't sit down because they have upped their game so now up yours no wait a minute that didn't actually turn out the way I meant it let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins

it is hard to stay involved in your kids education I know an entire generation of parents just found out to an alarming extent during the pandemic how bad things are. Knowing what they're learning or not learning is only half the battle because as a parent, it is our responsibility to find in, find out how to fill in the gaps. And, you know, I said to a, I said to a teacher, when my second oldest was in second grade, this is years and years ago before anybody thought there was a problem, I asked them You know, I know it's second grade, and it was probably wrong to ask him for a syllabus.

But I said, you have a syllabus or, you know, a list of all the books that you're going to be using. And she said, Mr. Beck, Mr. Beck, we've got her. Our job is to teach your child. You don't worry about it. And I said, no, excuse me, my job is to teach the child. You assist me. not the other way around. They didn't like that too much,

and that's almost 30 years ago now. The Tuttle Twins books, now that we know what's being taught, we need to fill in this gap. We need to give them the history of America. So get America's history. It's a brand new history book, but not like the textbooks that you have ever seen before.

It doesn't concentrate on dates and names to memorize. it is the story of America. You can even preview the book sample chapter so you can see for yourself why it's needed and why it's crucial in the here. And now you'll see everything that they're including with the offer of America's history, including the audiobook version.

So go to tuttle twinsbeck.com. That's tuttletwinsbeck.com. Let me begin with something that was deleted from the anniversary, the 67th anniversary celebration of Disneyland. Every year they start with Walt Disney. And what he said at the ribbon cutting in 1955, they've just deleted this now, and they're trying to erase even Walt from the Walt Disney world. here he is in 195.

Listen carefully to what he said. To all who come to this happy place, welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here aid relives fond memories of the past. And here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams, and the hard facts that have created America. With the hope that it will be a source of joy

and inspiration to all the world. Thank you. Do you hear what they deleted, and can you understand why they deleted it? To all those who enter here, greetings. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideas, the ideals, and the hard facts that created America to send them forth as a source of courage,

and inspiration throughout the world. They haven't been doing that in a long time. But now they're not only cutting Walt the founder out of Disney, but they are also cutting America out. The America that we all grew up in, the America that we thought we knew, is gone. But it's only on hold. And it's on hold because it is in each of us.

those of us who lived it, who know its truth, to know its promise, to have received its inspiration, it should now give us courage to continue to stand up because we know what it was. Our kids don't. But I want you to know that it is only, it's been put in a closet for a while. And it is our job to open that door and take it back out. of the closet. It's only on hiatus. If we choose,

otherwise, it is gone. I have spoken about the Holocaust for a very, very long time, and I've been called a Nazi propagandist. I've been, I've been called all kinds of things because I support Israel,

I support the Jews, and I really truly believe in never-fever. forget. Never forget. And that means something more than just telling the story. Holocaust having killed six million Jews, blah, blah, blah. No, never forget means never forget what led to that insanity. So you can stop it. Vera Cherov was three years old when her world collapsed. This is from the epic times. She and her family were chased out of Roman. and hurted into a concentration camp in Ukraine during World War II.

There they were left to wait and starve. She said, the cloud of death was always there. Weekly, a list determined who would be sent where and whether it would be death or a slave labor camp. While at the camp, she said her father died of typhus when she was five, which was widespread throughout the camps because of cold and malnutrition. after three years at that camp waiting. She was rescued in 1944.

She said my mother got wind of a few orphans that would be transferred and transported out of the camp, so she lied and said that I was an orphan to save my life. And that's how I wound up leaving. This began what she calls her Odyssey as a child without parents, left to her own intuition and critical assessment of others in. intentions. She said, I had to assess at a very young age who I could trust to take care of me. She was on a train at the port of Constantia in Romania, where there were three boats waiting to take groups of people to Palestine. She befriended a family. However, on arrival, she found

herself assigned to a boat with other orphaned children that would separate her from the family with whom she thought she could trust, so she rebelled. No matter what, I could not be convinced to get on that boat, and miraculously, in the end, they gave in to me. C-6, she fell asleep that night, only to wake up to find out that the boat with all of the orphans had been torpedoed by who she said she found out decades later to have been the Russians.

Though she carried guilt for having survived, she was grateful that she resisted because that resistance kept her alive. I do not obey authority, and it saved my life. She's now speaking out. She said these memories of the concentration camp and what she went through returned in 2020 during the web of COVID-19 restrictions that spun out of control with the help of media propaganda.

She said, so now, I'm quoting, when people are obeying authority mindlessly and giving up their rights to make decisions about their own lives and what goes into their own bodies, I think back to that time. She's now a medical activist and founder of the Alliance for Human Research Protection. It's a network of lay people and professionals who work to uphold humanitarian values and ethical standards established in the Hippocratic Oath. The Nuremberg Code and the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights. Most importantly, she just joined Scott Skara, a co-founder of Amazing Grace's Light Shines-on Corporation. She said, both of them see the parallels now between the national socialist regime in Germany

and the current medical directives being carried out in the United States through government funding. Before I go on, I want to tell you, I played Walt Disney because that's who we are. That's who we can be. That's who we once were. But we are in danger of it forever slipping through our fingers if we don't recognize times have changed. And you're not living in the same country and playing by the same rules. Since the death of his 19-year-old daughter, Grace, in a hospital in 2021, and he again, again is the co-founder of Our Amazing Grace's Light.

His daughter died in a hospital in 2021 after having been injected with a combination of drugs that he found out later was part of a federal hospital protocol. He said what's happening is genocide. He's been crusading to tell his daughter's story, the network with others that have had similar experiences while bringing attention to the protocols that he believes amounted to the murder of his daughter who had done. Down syndrome. Under the Nazi regime, he said, medicine was weaponized as it is being today. Though the Jews were the primary target, she said, the first medically murdered victims were

disabled German infants and children under the age of three. Most people don't know this, but Mangela, who was the butcher of Auschwitz, he was the guy who did all of the evil experiments on people. He was actually the head of the children's hospital in Germany. In the Mercury Museum, I have the last prescription that he wrote at the children's hospital. And it is for a massive amount of the drug that they were using to kill the children in the hospital. This expanded into the operation titled T4 for the street address of the program's central office in Berlin for all of the disabled of all ages ages and the mentally ill and senior citizens because as she points out the Nazis called them worthless eaters T4 was a concerted effort to rid what their propaganda called

the economic burden. Shera pointed out to 2021 Medicare trustee report. She said, have you read it. It evaluates the cost of keeping the elderly and disabled federally funded. 39% of the federal budget goes to those two groups right now, which is $2.2 trillion a year. On page 11 of the report, there's a call for a substantial change to address the financial challenges. Quote, the sooner solutions are enacted, the more flexible and gradual they can be. the report says. For her, the implication is, while not overtly stated, a call for eugenics that was supported by the academic elites in early U.S. history and later adopted by the Nazis. Ten years after he took power, Hitler launched his genocide program that had been introduced

in incremental steps with the help of propaganda portraying the regime as heroes. What happened to grace and what happened to many disabled and elderly in Western Europe, Australia, Canada, the United States in March and April of 2020 was medical murder. Genocide isn't new to the United States. You should know this. We started it here. We started these programs to kill and sterilize the disabled here in America. The Nazis took it from us. So don't think that it couldn't happen here.

U.S. Supreme Court, Oliver Wendell Holmes, voted in favor, 8-1 majority opinion in the 29, sorry, the 1921 case of Buck v. Bell, which upheld the Virginia Steralization Act of 24, the forced sterilization of Kerry Buck, who was alleged to be mentally defective. Holmes said it would be better to prevent the mentally disabled from being born. then allow them to sap the strength of the state or let them starve for their imbecility. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccines is broad enough to cover cutting the fallopian tubes. The justice wrote, in his opinion, three generations of imbeciles are enough. Unfortunately, she was never actually mentally disabled. Arguments for eugenics were always built on a lie, she said. but it is an ideology that continues to poison the public health policies.

She says she's very familiar with the banality of evil, and it makes mass murder possible by making it a bureaucratic routine that is handed down his orders through the chain of command to the person who pulls the switch or gives the injection. No one ever called it murder. The Nazis were very adept at propaganda and language, and the Jews were called spreaders of disease, not unlike the epithets thrown at those who didn't take the jab in 2021.

The unvaccinated, it was called the pandemic of the unvaccinated. The whole language was dehumanizing. To cut to the chase here, doctors encourage the mother to get amniocentesis tests. If the test shows that a down syndrome or another disability would complicate the parents' life, they encourage abortion. There's an unholy union when medicine gets in bed with the government, and the Hippocratic oath goes through the window. Do no harm. Look at what Big Pharma is now doing to children.

Look at what's happening with the gender reassignment surgeries. She says she's concerned with the elite ruling class that is godless, believing only in what is measurable and controllable. We should not fall into the trap, to the false law. light that Satan will eventually ride in to steal more souls. God's true light protects those who believe. We the people need to reclaim the sovereignty by learning to trust in intuition, experience, and the ability to assess lies from the truth. That's the problem. Stop watching mainstream media. They're all reading from the same script. They're bombarding people with fear mongering, which is exactly the same thing the Nazis did and how they controlled the population through fear.

Have no fear. And if I may, quote our Holocaust survivor, America, resist, wake up, and stop obeying. Let me talk to you a little bit about relief factor. Jane 71, she lives with her husband in California. Ooh, sorry for that. She likes to spend time playing tennis, but over time aches in pains in her knees and her arms started catching up with her. She listens to this program. She heard me talking about Relief Factor and decided to try it.

Hi, Jane. What happened next was something she still refers to as a miracle. She said within a few weeks, all of the pain just melted away. Jane got her life back with Relief Factor, and so could you. It's relief factor, not a drug developed by doctors, four key ingredients that fight inflation, which is the source of most of our pain. It's 1995, it's like a dollar a day for a trial pack. Try it.

For three weeks, hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor. About 70% of them go on to order more month after month, and I'm one of those people. Relieffactor.com. Call 1,800 for relief. 1,800 for relief. 1995, the three-week quick start developed just for you. Relieffactor.com or call 800 the number for relief. 800, the number four relief relief factor.

Feel the difference. 10 seconds, station ID. Now, we all know that we're headed for trouble, but we have agencies now going door to door to ask about your guns. We now have the Census Bureau going door to door, asking people, sorry, they're going door to holster manufacturers, and asking these holster manufacturers and providing these holster manufacturers and providers, the Department of Congress would like to know the order numbers, the product descriptions, and where the items are being shipped.

Few of the holster providers and manufacturers are giving this information to the United States government. Why? Why does the Census Bureau and the Department of Commerce want the information? want the information on who has a holster. You couple that with the $80 billion that Biden is pushing through Congress today, $80 billion for the IRS. This is going to allow them to have all kinds of new,

pretty much double their staff. They say they're going after rich people. Really? 80 billion dollars to go after rich people. That's a lot of agents. We must have a lot of really rich people, huh, that are cheating on their taxes. But that also includes the $700,000 that they just spent buying ammunition. All of these federal agencies are buying ammunition and guns.

That is the president's personal army. Why is that happening? American financing NMLS-182334 www.mLS Consumeraccess.org It's easy sometimes to take things we have in life for granted. If you're a homeowner, I'd say it's a pretty good bet that you felt a lot more secure about your financial future maybe a couple of years ago than you did than you do now.

Inflation is a monster. It is taxation without representation. And it is growing fatter and fatter under the watchful eye of an administration that's doing nothing but feeding it. And every day the American economy looks a little bleaker than it did the day before. If you haven't already, please do everything you can to shore up your financial house. And I mean today.

More and more Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. 157 million adults. That is 61% of Americans as of June. This number is up from 58% in May. A year ago, it was 55. But 61% of Americans now are living paycheck to paycheck. You disrupt.

anything and they go under. That's the reality that Biden, his approval rating is so low, not just because everything he's doing is leading to more misery. His approval rating is so low because he refuses to recognize the truth. Every time he says, we're not in a recession or inflation is just transitory, people stop listening to everything else he says because their experience, their day-to-day experience is telling them differently. Now, as we are looking at inflation, and I mean incredible inflation, let me just take you from June 2020 to last year at this time to June 2022. Listen to this. Average gas price

when Trump was in office, $2.17. June 2020. June 2021. 315. That's after Biden comes in office. It's now the average of $482. So you are looking at more than a $2 increase. Inflation rate, when Bush, or I'm sorry, when Trump was in office in June 2020, the inflation rate was 0.6%.

The first year, June 2021, under Biden, it was 5.4. He said it was transitory. It is now 9.2. It is transitory. That number is changing. It's just going in the wrong direction. COVID cases, seven-day average. Under Trump, in June 2020, it was 22,433. In June 2021, last year, He brought it down to 11,756. Now that we're all vaccinated in June 2022, the COVID cases seven-day average is 106,757. The death rate has just gone down. Illegal border encounters. Under Trump at June 2020, it was 363,619, coming across, our border illegally. In June 2021, just a few months in, that number under Biden went from 363 to 871,453. That number this last June is now 1,478,9777. You are 1.1 million more illegals coming in

June to June. Total consumer debt. Total consumer debt in 2020, June 2020, it was negative 0.3%. After Biden gets into office, total consumer debt, because remember, you had so much money, you didn't know what to do with it, total consumer debt was 4.2%. Today, total consumer debt is 14%. This is a real problem. We're going in the wrong direction.

This is why the government is buying ammunition. They're trying to take away your guns. They're going and trying to get from the holster manufacturers for some reason. Who has a holster? Who doesn't have a holster? and why it is so important today that you call Kristen Sinema's number, her number in Washington, D.C. or in Arizona, and beg her. She has been good and strong so far,

but all of the pressures of hell are going to be coming down on her. They will make a deal that only the devil could make to get this bill, this climate tax bill passed. Mansion is already folded. Cinema is the only one, and the Democrats are freaking out because she hasn't said anything about it. But I can guarantee you

they are trying to make a deal and cut it. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if all of a sudden the government said, you know, after some studies, we think the Phoenix Tucson area should just be domed and fully air-conditioned. We're going to call it the cinema. Dome. Uh-huh. They will cut any deal because they need every single of the 50 members of the Senate Democratic caucus to pass it. They've got to have every single one on board. One of them peels away and that one will be Christian cinema. One of them peels away and you don't get the climate deal. Pray for her and call her office.

and ask her kindly, please don't pass on this tax, because that's what it is. This tax will be so crippling to America. And I really need you to understand exactly what is happening here when we look at inflation. When we look at inflation, what are they doing to us? Well, they're driving down supply while driving, prices up. Okay. So let's just say, let's use gasoline or ammunition. What's happening with a supply of

gasoline and ammunition? Well, it's getting fewer and fewer. Not because more and more people are buying it, which is true, but more and more people are buying it at extraordinary prices. You're buying gasoline, but you're buying it begrudgeonly and you're probably cutting back on the mile. Meanwhile, what is the government done? They have taken the strategic oil supply, and they have sold it into the market to China, overseas, and here. And it has made some impact, but that is short term because there is no – it's not like we're waiting for something to be fixed and to be opened up and supply us with more. This is a dwindling supply. and what are they doing?

They're not only selling our strategic oil, then he's promising to replace that strategic oil by paying twice as much as Donald Trump did to fill that thing, which will take the oil supply away from the general population. It will have the government then taking your tax dollars or printing more money from the Fed and buying that, which will drive up inflation and drive up the price. This is really important to understand.

Inflation, and now the mansion bill, still in the Senate, please call Kristen Sinema's office, put people over parties here. But the government is spending more on gas, concrete, steel, pretty much everything they can. Driving those prices up. BlackRock, buying up houses, ESG, hedge funds, buying up trailer funds, buying up trailer parks all across the country and then passing a 100% rent increase onto these people. So they're buying up houses and paying over-asking price to buy up entire neighborhoods. They're buying these neighborhoods up, and then what are they doing?

They're not selling them for a profit. They're holding on to them and collecting rent. This pounds you on the free money. market side. You can't afford things on the free market side because the public-private partnerships with these ESG funds and these corporations, plus all of the money that the government is spending, they're driving up the price. Then on top of it, they're taxing you, which takes more of your money, and then they have the hidden tax without representation of inflation. So in the end. The public-private partnerships with the government own everything and you're left with nothing

but the hand that you have that you now have to reach out and ask the government, please can you help my family? I need a handout. You've followed the rules your whole life. These people are breaking the rules every day and they're getting away with it. And you're getting the shaft in the end. It is not too late as long as, you educate yourself on what's happening and you speak out. The tide is coming in. We thought our boats couldn't float. The freedom boat wouldn't float anymore because the tide is out.

The tide is coming back in. But right now is when we need everybody in the boat. Because here's what happens. It is said over and over again, you know, hey, the government's not your dad. They're not our parent. Uncle Sam's not really your uncle. Well, that's more true than ever before. They treat us like children and try to make all our decisions.

Yes, but what you're missing here is that it's not just that they're taking your right to make your own decisions. They're taking everything you have so your only option is to come to them or their public-private partnership so you can rent or just live and eat. And I want to remind you what every dad has always said, every mother has always said, and you probably have said now to your children, because it's true. I want you to remember as they treat us like children

and put us in the situation where we have to have their care. I want you to remember what was said to you, You have said to your children, as long as you live under my roof, you will live and obey my rules. That's why when the World Economic Forum and all the build back better people tell you it's going to be great and you're not going to own anything, but you'll be happy. No, I will not. Because as long as I don't own it, then I live under somebody else's roof. my entire life will be under someone else's roof and I have no intention of obeying those rules

good news I have some scary news for you coming up in just a second about what's happening

with Nancy Pelosi in Taiwan we have representative Chris Stewart on he is

part of the Intelligence Committee and he's also former military, so he has some ideas of what's really happening, and it's very, very concerning.

You know, there is an option. She's on our way. They've already buzzed China has, has buzzed the island and has also hacked into the internet, and they have dropped some critical infrastructure China has in anticipation of Pelosi's arrival in Taiwan. We could, I don't think we will. We could be at war with China by this time tomorrow. It's a really dicey situation. The world is on the edge, but we make it through it. And I have some really good news.

I really truly believe the pendulum is shifting back. People are waking up. And I was thinking, you know, the message I wanted to give you today. And then the show is really, it is a reflection today, at least what I want you to hear today is from Galatians. So let us not grow weary of doing what is good. For if we don't give up, we will in due time reap the harvest. Therefore, as the opportunity arises, let us do what is good. to everyone and especially the family of those who are trustingly faithful.

We have to continue to do good. We have to not live our life in anger and frustration. I'm as frustrated and as angry as anybody else, but that won't get us anywhere. Hatred won't get us anywhere. Love thy neighbor. Love thy enemy. and we continue to do this and we continue to stand up in our own neighborhoods and speak out. We will win. We're already winning.

Let me talk to you a little bit about what could possibly happen by tomorrow, and I don't think it's going to. But we could be at war tomorrow with China because of one crazy incident in Taiwan. That's happening soon. And we should know by tonight. Now, can you imagine if we're at war with China? If there's even a blockade with China. Can you imagine what happens to our economy and everything that we need? Please, please do yourself a favor and prepare yourself.

What we're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Back program. Hello, America. Today is promising to be a very interesting day. China said, may you live in interesting times. Oh, well, thank you so much for that, because it's very interesting. What's happening today as Nancy Pelosi goes over to Taiwan already. She is on her way there now, and it seems as though Taiwan's presidential office has been hit by an overseas cyber attack ahead of this.

That is not a good sign. China said they will not sit idly by. as Nancy Pelosi visits Taiwan. So what does that mean? What could possibly happen? What do we expect to happen? Nobody really knows, but we're playing at very high-stakes game now with China as well as Russia. Representative Chris Stewart, who sits on the Intel Committee in the House,

also vast military experience and intelligence experience. I wanted to get his opinion on what all of this means. We go to him in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about LifeLock.

We go to Chris Stewart now, who is in Washington. Chris, how long do I have you? for today. How long can you talk? Hello, Chris. Come in, Chris Stewart. Yes, Glenn. I'm sorry. You know, I'm asking for hours and hours. You know that. No, seriously. I mean, I know you're in

Washington. How much time do you have here? Can I keep you for a while? You bet. Happy to talk with you. Okay. All right, because this is such a critical event that could go sideways quickly and China doesn't seem to be the kind of management, if you will, that bluffs an awful lot. And they are using stronger language than they've ever used with any of our allies about this visit to Taiwan. Can you explain what the heck is happening? Yeah. Well, let me do my best in the sense that it's hard to predict the future. and it's hard to predict Chinese leadership and the actions that they might take.

It's a very, very difficult intelligence target. I think, though, Glenn, I agree with you. As high as tensions might be, and despite the actions that Chinese leadership is taking in the bluster, again, I agree with you. I think it's unlikely that we're at war with China in the next, you know, short period of time. And part of the reason for that is China doesn't need to be provoked for an excuse to take Taiwan. I think they will do that at a time of their choosing. When they're ready. It's pretty clear. Yeah, it's pretty clear. That's their intention. And they've made that very clear.

And again, I don't. Okay, so hang on just a second with that, Chris. When you say that and you're looking at that, let's take it here. China went in and took Hong Kong when they were ready and the world was distracted and they came in easily and just took Hong Kong, freedom squashed. I think that's the kind of opportunity that China would be looking for for Taiwan. Just take it when nobody's watching and the world can't do anything. And that time will come. They also don't have the landing crafts at this point, if I understand this correctly. I have seen that China doesn't have the landing crafts that would be needed to take an island

like Taiwan, but that is on the horizon. But let me balance this now with the other side. China's economy is collapsing. They have people that are in the streets now defying tanks at the Bank of China. So China may need a distraction and a reason to rally all of the people to take their attention off the financial trouble. Is that fair to say that that's what makes this? really kind of an unknown? Yeah, yeah.

I think everything you've said is true, and I agree with everything that you said. And I think your point on Hong Kong is so important and has to be elaborated on. I mean, Glenn, I remember you and I talking about, remember when Hong Kong had millions of people protesting in the streets, a one weekend they had more than three million protesters

out of a nation of six million people. Half the people were protesting. And during that time, we had something like 35,000 Chinese security forces. Now, they called them policemen and civilians, but they weren't. They were military. And yet China did not invade Hong Kong at that point, even in the midst of this incredible uprising. But to your point, when they did, was when the U.S. was completely absorbed with COVID. And they did without a peep. No one even noticed. And I actually think that's an argument for why right now isn't the time for them,

because I do think they can choose when they make this invasion, and I think it's almost inevitable that they will. But I think they can choose a better time. And to your second point about the amphibious assault ships, that's exactly right. Turns out that invading Taiwan is not a simple military operation. In fact, it actually has some fairly significant natural defenses. The only way you can do it is through amphibious assault landings.

You can't do it through the air. You just simply can't put enough soldiers on the ground. And they're not quite prepared yet. Now they're working aggressively towards that. But our analysis is that they don't have enough ships yet. So I think right now it's probably premature for them to take this type of action. And finally to your third point, yeah, you're right. There's a lot of upheaval in China right now.

And I guess the question and equation the leadership would have to evaluate is, does us invading Taiwan, which is going to aggravate all of those internal financial stresses in China, not alleviate them? Does that help us or does it hurt us? And again, I think most of the analysts and just consensus, it's probably not the right time right now. But finally, Glenn, let me say this. Who knew that Russia was going to invade Ukraine? Who knew the CDC was a political organization? I mean, who knew the Great Reset was going to reframe a lot of what we do in society?

So the truth is, is we live in a very unpredictable and a very dangerous world. And it's hard to save a certain what the next day might hold. So the New York Times is, I think, pretty much taking Nancy Pelosi apart. Thomas Friedman had an article in the New York Times, I think it was yesterday, where he was talking about Ukraine, the money we're sending over there, how corruption is on the rise, we don't know what we're doing, and now we have Nancy Pelosi running over to China. And he thought it was a big mistake for her to go over. It's not necessarily a mistake to go over, but it's a mistake to announce you're going over because it gives China the chance to do what it's doing and putting us into a situation to where you got to go because you can't give into China,

but you don't want to go because it's pissing China off. Wasn't that the mistake that Nancy Pelosi made? Yeah, I think there are a couple of mistakes that made. Number one is that that did occur. And there have been members of Congress who have visited Taiwan in the last couple of years. But they do exactly what you just said. They don't announce that they go there. We show our support.

We have meaningful meetings. We talk about, you know, military alliance, you know, things that we can do to help them. You leave and then perhaps you talk about it when you get home. In some cases, we don't even discuss it once we've returned. I don't think Nancy Pelosi announced that she was going to Taiwan. I think the Biden administration leaked it. And you have to ask yourself, why would they do that? Why?

Is there anyone who thinks that 10% for the big guy wants to provoke China? Because this president doesn't want to provoke China. He wants to kowtow to China. And a really good example of that is why in the world is it so hard for this administration to say the truth about the origins of the coronavirus? I mean, a seven-year-old could look at the evidence and say, yep, it almost certainly came from the lab. And yet they're reluctant.

In fact, it's impossible for them to. do that. They just simply won't. And I think that's a good example of they don't want to provoke China. They thought Pelosi going there would be a provocation, therefore they leaked it, I think, and there are others who believe this as well, in order to compel her not to go. And to her credit, Glenn, I think, oh my gosh, I can't believe I just said that about Nancy Pelosi. In this case, it's true. To her credit, I think she landed there just, well, and the evidence is she probably landed there just a few minutes ago. I think they were scheduled to land at about 10.05 p.m. local.

And it's like I said, just a few minutes ago, we don't know for sure if she is. But that attention apparently was her intention. So I want to play something from the Pentagon that I just don't understand. And it regards the Taiwan Relations Act, which I want you to get into here in just a second. But let me play this and then ask you a question on it. Here's Pentagon. Repeatedly said. that we oppose any unilateral changes to the status quo from either side.

We have said that we do not support Taiwan independence, and we have said that we expect cross-strait differences to be resolved by peaceful means. We have communicated this directly. So wait a minute. John Kirby just said we don't support Taiwan independence. According to the Taiwan Relations Act, which is very carefully written, There is strategic ambiguity through it. And I think that's even a phrase that comes from that, strategic ambiguity, where we have always played, look, we support the Taiwanese people and, you know, we'll defend them.

We accept them as a separate party. But we never say, absolutely positively, we're going in, or absolutely positively, we don't support this. why are we saying this now? Yeah, you know, that's another good example of the delicate nature of this relationship. And that is, you're exactly right. The strategic ambiguity is intentional, it's deliberate, and it's written into this agreement. And it was a way to split the baby, if you will, at the time. And that is, you know, philosophically and in many practical ways, we were supportive of the people of Taiwan.

But on the other hand, we didn't want to go to war with China at the time, and we said, okay, well, we're going to have this strategic ambiguity. Well, we're going to kind of support him, but we're not going to support him in open or in public or in very aggressive ways, which is, by the way, coming back to the president one more time, and his apparent willingness to, you know, to improvise and to change 30 years of national security strategy in an off-end comment at the end of an interview, which he says, oh, yeah, we would absolutely militarily defend up Taiwan. long. Well, that's not been officially our policy for a long, long time. Again, it was, it relied on

this ambiguity. Strategic ambiguity. China not knowing what we would do. And I think it's a good example of, again, it's a delicate balance there. And this president has tipped the scales in a way that brings a lot more uncertainty. Okay. Let me take a quick one-minute break. And I want to go back to A, what China is saying, what Russia is saying about this. Russia came out on Russian TV, and I'll play that for you here in just a second. And then I just want to talk to you about what do you think we should prepare for? What are the options? Because honestly, I am more afraid of this government's response than I am of China's response.

I, these people screw everything up. They'll only make things worse. And I don't know. I mean, I just, Biden is practically an imbecile at this point. God only knows what he would choose to respond with. So I want to talk to you a little bit about that coming up in just a second. Back with Chris Stewart in just a moment. First, our sponsor this half hour is the Tuttle Twins books.

when the Fed and the President tell you, despite two back-to-back quarters of negative growth in the economy, that we're not in a recession, who believes them? Well, sadly, a lot of people, a lot of people, because they don't remember history, they don't pay attention, and they don't, we no longer have the ability as a society to discern truth from fiction. we no longer either have the ability to discern or, and it might be and or, don't care when people are lying to us. That is a republic that cannot stand. You have a republic if you can keep it, said Benjamin Franklin. I'm not sure we can. We have to learn history. We have to learn from the past.

And we also have to teach our children how to discern truth. from fiction. I want you to check out a new book. It's America's history. I think it's 1215 to 1776. It's unlike all the other history books. It concentrates on the story of America. And it doesn't have, you know, memorization of dates and names and everything else. It tells you the ideas and the big struggles, what they were about, what the different ideas were, why one conquered the other, and what makes us different. That's America's history. And if we're going to keep our republic, we have to know it.

Please go to Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Their American history book has just been released. You can preview a sample chapter. You can see for yourself why it's so good and why it's so needed. It's crucial right now, actually. And they will show you everything they're including in the offer, including the audiobook version,

Tuttle Twinsbeck. That's tuttle twinsbeck.com. 10 seconds, station ID. Okay, so if you're watching the network on Blaze TV, I'm going to play some Russian television. But here was the message, a TV tower in Moscow, and the message is China, Russia is with you. The strategic alliances are being made between China, Iran, and Moscow. And we're in a very dangerous situation. I think we are approaching the Cuban missile crisis kind of tension.

That's what I think, not worst case scenario, but a really bad case tomorrow. We could start to face blockades and where difficult decisions have to be made. And quite honestly, Chris, I don't trust this administration to make those, nor do I trust the Pentagon. Yeah, I'm afraid, and I say this reluctantly, but I share that fear, and especially it hurts me to say that about military leadership. I mean, you know, Glenn, as you've mentioned, I was a former Air Force pilot, and, you know, that runs deep in my family's DNA from my father, who is a pilot in World War II, my brothers, and shame on General Millie, and shame on General Austin. And after what we saw the debacle in Afghanistan, how in the world could this

president sit across from them and trust them on any issue? How could the American people trust them on any issue? And there has been a time or two, as I've mentioned to you briefly, Glenn, that I've seen things develop there and the development itself was frightening. But the administration's supposed to what they were suggesting, how they were to respond to this, was absolutely terrifying. I mean, it was beyond inept. And it was like, holy cow, how could you guys even be possibly considering this action? And yet, we've seen that from them.

And unfortunately, we've seen it more recently. So, no, I share that concern, and we should. The American people are not foolish. They can look at this administration and see that they're not capable, and they haven't demonstrated the type of leadership that we need to when it comes to international relations. military affairs. Again, they look at Afghanistan as evidence.

Chris, what are you expecting or what should we be watching for here in the next 24 hours? Well, I think there's a couple things maybe worth mentioning. One of them is this alliance between Russia and China. Now, this is an example of the enemy of my enemy is my friend, but this is a little bit beyond that. There's actually a genuine friendship between President Xi and President Putin. They actually spend quite a lot of time together. I think there's been more official visits between them than any other state leaders.

And now that's a transactional relationship, but they could take advantage of it at this moment. So I think that's something strategically we need to keep our eye on. Again, Glenn, I think that we're probably going to see bluster from Chinese leadership. They've already announced they're imposing some trade sanctions against Taiwan. Interestingly, on food stuffs, which is something they need more of, not less. And they'll probably be more of that. And then there's going to be more aggressive military exercises. They've got five days of military exercises they hastily put together,

including four days of live file exercises that you'll see over the next week. And again, they put that together very, very quickly in order for them to respond to this. I don't think you're going to see something that leads us into a confrontation, but it stresses a relationship, and it makes Beijing more and more likely to show aggression towards Taiwan. Thank you. Chris, thank you so much. Thank you for trying to hold the line along with several other people in Washington, especially the Freedom Caucus, holding the line here.

Thanks so much for checking in with us. Back with another expert on Taiwan and war. Next. Glenn back program. Do you know what's worse than the beginning of a house selling and house buying process? Honestly, honestly, the. of it, the end of it. If you don't do it right, the end of it is awful. On the house selling side, you could end up with a lot less than your house is worth or might be worth. You could end up

with a real estate agent that thinks selling a house is only just putting up some balloons and some signs saying open house and you're trapped in that nightmare cycle.

Ronald Reagan is in office. And there is something, I don't remember what it was, but a confrontation with the Soviet Union. And it was really serious. And I remember keeping the door to the teletype in my studio open.

Teletype is how we used to get the news. And it had bells on it. And a 10 bell event would be nuclear war. And I kept that propped open so I could hear those bells and count the bells. and, you know, we got to think as high as like six bells. And I would count them because I knew. And I thought, I'm at ground zero. I mean, this could be over in 12 minutes.

I haven't felt that way, really, until this administration. You know, even after September 11th, I remember feeling on September 11th, boy, I don't know what they're going to do. but it wasn't a fear of nuclear war or all out war over the whole world. We're approaching that kind of place. We now have, do we have the live footage? This is, they're tracking Nancy Pelosi's plane. We can show it to you. She's at about 10,000 feet headed towards Taiwan.

She has avoided the restricted airspace over the South China. sea. However, China has just closed the airspace above the Taiwan Strait, and they are, they're at least flexing their muscles. If you look at what China is sending out online, you are seeing military being moved. You have the aircraft carriers from China, moving out of their home ports and headed towards Taiwan. I don't know what's going to happen. We have a guy who actually is, I mean, somewhat of kind of an expert on this area working for us. He's our chief researcher and head writer for the Glenn Beck television program, Jason Batrill.

Hello, Jason. How are you? Hey, Glenn. Doing good. So, Jason, help me out on, um, how serious is this with China do you think? I think it's very serious, especially considering, you know, the symbolic meaning of Taiwan. Taiwan's very, very symbolic to the Chinese Communist Party. This has been an issue since, you know, the communist took over, really. So this is probably one of the most crazy, ambiguous treaties we've ever had, the Taiwan-related.

Act is the most ambiguous thing ever, which makes Kirby's, you know, remarks yesterday kind of odd to come out and say, you know, we don't support independence so publicly. I mean, I've read the Taiwan Relations Act cover to cover. The ambiguity, just to say it's ambiguous is even an understatement. It's the equivalent of one of the most confusing Christopher Nolan movies ever. Take Inception, take interstellar, take Tenant, and then have 30 different people try to describe what it actually means. Like, oh, I actually think of me.

That's basically what we're talking about here. So this is Taiwan and China are at war with each other. It's a civil war. And it happened in the 1950s. So this has been going back and forth from the 1950s. But it is, it's coming to a head. And that's because as China rises in power, they think the odds are that they can take the United States of America. I don't think that's possible yet.

But I think we're maybe five years. to five years away from them actually being able to take Taiwan and call our bluff or just fight the war. Yeah. You think that's accurate? No, absolutely accurate. China sees Taiwan like they see Hong Kong. When they made the deal with Hong Kong, it was always, people always say, oh, you know, China does, you know, has no right to do this. It must be two systems, you know, under one country. Yeah, but it was in that agreement that China would one day take full control and it would be one system. People usually leave that part out. They just decided to accelerate their plans. They see Taiwan as one China, and they believe it's rightfully theirs, and their plan is always to take it. They just don't

have the military capability. Now, moving towards what we're seeing now, the thing that would have always, you know, tip us off. And in the Taiwan Relations Act, we will say that if you try to course, you know, militarily, onto Taiwan to change Taiwan and take it, we will respond. And President Reagan, and I believe 1980 or 1982, reassured right after the, you know, the 1979 Taiwan Act, reassured that, hey, we are still giving you weapons. We are still coming to your defense. So this is a very, very old agreement we've had. And yes, we will go and respond. But the thing that has always kept, you know, the things, you know, kind of open and, you know, that we can see what's going on in the future is it would take a tremendous Chinese military buildup to be put in place before we would,

you know, the actual action. So we would see it. We'd see the buildup. We'd go and, you know, respond to it. What Pelosi's done, and let's put this into context, the Speaker of the House has just undermined her presidents in the same party, his foreign policy. She has taken it on herself to manipulate U.S. foreign policy. It's absolutely unprecedented. and she has no right to do this. It's not under the duties of the Speaker of the House. But her actions are allowing this military buildup to happen. It's accelerating an already accelerated plan that we've seen, you know, with China and Hong Kong.

I tell you, it is, it is truly frightening. And by the way, the reason why Taiwan is important to the United States is if Taiwan falls, we then are pretty much out of Asia, the, the, the, the, next country to fall would be New Zealand and Australia and China would just overrun all of that hemisphere. And between Russia and China, you know, that would be a very difficult match for us to even stand shoulder to shoulder with. Okay, so let me give you a couple of scenarios. And I want to hear what you think the best scenario is. These are five different scenarios. that have been put together by a Taiwanese-based researcher.

So the first one, minimalist approach. The people's army occupies Jemen or Matsu Islands, as well as Taiwan's islands in the South China Sea, maybe even the Peng Islands. They declare part or all of the Taiwan Strait a no-go zone. They just did that. And they give it a no-go zone, all military shipping. This would be fairly easy, et cetera, et cetera, and it would not overcommit

them. It would just be a step up. Scenario number two, hybrid warfare, some sort of a partial naval and aerial blockade of Taiwan intended to interfere with the economy to combine with stepped up harassment such as direct flyovers, which they did last night while we were all sleeping. Incursions into maritime space by China's military. They might also have cyber attacks, which they just did about two hours before Pelosi's plane was taking off. Scenario number three, a serious attack, but no invasion. This would involve air and sea warfare, no boots on the ground, full airing, and naval blockade, protracted set of naval and aerial battles designed to degrade Taiwan's military combined with ballistic missile attacks on military targets.

The scenario number four, real actual invasion, scenario number five, short of a nuclear attack would be the worst case, full air and sea blockade, massive ballistic missile attacks on military targets, cyber attack, aggressive naval and aerial attacks, boots on the ground. I don't think that one is even possible right now, but maybe it is. Which one, or do you have another scenario that you think is more likely to come from this? So to point out, I think every single one of those scenarios would break the Taiwan Relations Act, which would require an American response.

So if they're thinking about doing any of those, they're ready for war. Just really quick, if I can remember all of them, the first one, occupying some of those islands in the air defense zone, we already see all the air defense on occupying any of those islands, including the Pengu Islands. Yes. Those are part of the Pescadour Islands, which is specifically named in the Taiwan Relations Act as part of Taiwan. So that's a huge, that's a huge, you know, we're getting involved, basically, if they do that. And they're, so that is, or that is a progressive way to, for China to do it, where they're not taking all of it.

They're just moving in and then like Republicans always do. You just back up and like, oh, well, that, that's okay. Okay, well, we'll get it on the next vote. You know, that's a progressive tactic. And America would probably not go to war over something like that, I would hope. Yeah. We should put a note real quick. Nancy Pelosi has just landed in Taiwan.

So that is just working. Just watched it live here. So whatever game is being played is going. to be played. The other scenarios, pretty much many of them involved economic, you know, hybrid warfare or blockades. Economic hybrid warfare was not mentioned back then in the Taiwan Relations Act. I would put that in the same category as blockade. That's also mentioned. So if any of those things happen, we are then, according to the text, obligated to respond. So we're responding anyway. Okay. So if they pretty much do anything, even the lightest, the minimal approach,

They would be in violation of this act, you know, our treaty, if you will. And it puts us, you know, into action and calls our bluff. Right. I am terrified of what the Biden administration would do because the Biden administration is absolutely toothless. We have no allies. What we've done in Russia has only benefited. Russia and hurt everyone else, I think these guys could overreact and do something very provocative

that in the end will just destroy us. What should be our response, Jason? Oh, gosh. Like I said, this is such a complicated issue because it's so, I hate to use the word, to get ambiguous. I think that, let me just go to this point. I think that, I don't think China will do any of those things. I think that China will use this as an excuse to do a massive military buildup.

That's what I think. And we already saw. Massive military exercise. Massive military exercise. Oh, we're just going to position all these things here. We're going to put all these boats here. We're going to keep these aircraft carriers here. That way it puts us off balance on we don't know how far they've escalated their timeline.

And that's why I think this is such a horrible, not only dangerous, but horrible move by Nancy Pelosi in doing this is you, you're bringing right to the surface what we think we have 10 years to plan for and to prepare for. That's what I think will happen. I think that just we'll see a lot more military buildup in that area. It'll be harder for us to know when they are actually going to attack. Now, if they do any of those other things, I think that we're obligated to respond in some way. I'll leave it up to them to decide what is the, you know, how to balance it all out. They're obviously not the ones that I want, you know, in charge right now to do that. But I mean, we're signaling to everybody else in the region that, hey, you know, the time of

you being able to count us, that's over now. So, you know, yeah. I will tell you, Jason, thank you so much for your analysis. And, of course, we'll be watching it. And if you watch and see some things, let me know and tweet it out today and Facebook post, because this is something that is ongoing. Thank you, Jason, for your help. I will tell you that now is a time to pray for your country.

And let me just remind you, the Republicans always get the war monger label. Let's just say that the Republicans have changed on war. We've learned our lessons, I think. And Donald Trump, world was at peace. Look at how fast that has deteriorated. we could be in a proxy war with both Russia and China by tomorrow. It's insanity. Back in just a second.

So I'm a guy who appreciates convenience as much as anybody. When it comes to feeding your dog, I understand that kibble food is the easiest way, not to mention the cheaper way. But here's the thing. Your dog isn't getting the nutrition out of his kibble food. So that's because the factory bakes everything that is good. for him out so it can last on the shelf for years. So I want you to do what I've done. I still feed my dog kibble food, but I've added rough greens. Rough greens came about because of Dr. Dennis Black,

and he came up with his formula to sprinkle on the dog food, and it is full of vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants. You name it, it's in there for your dog. If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in rough greens. Most dogs love it. and go crazy for it. All of our dogs at the studio, we all have had it with our dogs. And I'm telling you, you not only see the difference, but it's like dog crack. Some dogs may not like it. And they want to make sure that you're not out money for something that your dog's not going to eat and like.

So they're going to send you a trial bag for free. All you pay for is the shipping, just to see if your dog likes it. If your dog likes it, then order a bag, and you're going to start seeing real health improvement. I mean, think about how much money you will save going to the vet. Roughgreens.com slash Beck.

That is critical for GPS, for all kinds of navigation, for satellite technology, everything. We can't have our clocks run slow.

That's never happened before because the Earth has never sped up. But I'd like to describe this story as, uh, it's Tuesday. The Glenn back. program. You know, the line used to be never let him see a sweat, but you don't actually have to

sweat anymore. There is a product out that is, I mean, truly remarkable. It is really hot here during the day at the ranch. And I haven't used antiperspirin or deodorant, traditional stuff. And I break through that so fast that I'm sweaty and smelly by the end of the day, I don't have that problem because I'm using sweat block wipes and I can't recommend these highly enough. I really can't. It is, it's such a relief when at the end of the day, you're not offended by yourself, especially if you're in a crowd. I have, I have some of the best artists in the world over here at the ranch this week. They're doing a training session at my ranch. And, yesterday it was so hot and I was outside all day and I was hugging people as they were coming in

and I didn't have to worry about it. It's sweatblock. Swetblock.com, sweatblock.com. Please, their sweat block, what? All right. There's something bizarre is happening in Missouri. I mean, I just told you last hour for the first time in all of natural history that we know of, the earth just sped up. So now all of our clocks and you know, satellite technology, everything, GPS has to adapt because for some reason, the Earth decided, I'm going to rotate a little faster now. There's such a bizarre world we're living in right now, but it gets weird. Well, I don't know about weirder than that, but it gets weird in Missouri.

Eric Schmidt, who is the Missouri Attorney General, he is a U.S. Senate candidate. He's had Donald Trump's endorsement, but Donald Trump just tweets out yesterday. I'm with Eric for Missouri Senate candidates. Well, there are two Eric's running. Which one? Because now Eric Schmidt, who has the endorsement of Donald Trump, has a opponent that is claiming he has the endorsement of Donald Trump. So which one has his endorsement? only on a Tuesday in America.

We talked to the Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmidt in 60 seconds. Couldn't happen a better time. It's primary day, too. Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. That is the most powerful. Those words tell you everything you need to know about who you are and about babies. for millions of us in this nation, they ring true still today. It took the blood of 63 million lives for us to get to the point of overturning Roe versus Wade,

countless more lives hang in the balance. This is not going to stop abortion. I think it's going to, in some states, make it even more brutal and barbaric. But this is the fight where it's the fight where it's. in, this is the fight pre-born is in. Over the past 16 years, Preborn has positioned their clinics in the top abortion cities where 50% of abortions take place. And Preborn's work of saving babies continues and at a greater rate now because now they are under attack as well by many of these states. So they've got to fight on two fronts. They've got to keep the states from calling them,

I don't even know, terrorist practically, to also just fighting for these babies' lives. We have a goal on this program to save 50,000 babies' lives through pre-born by the end of the year. We are making good headway, but we are not close to that goal, and we really need your help. They do it by having ultrasounds. Ultrasounds increase the chance of the mom saying, yes, I want to keep the baby by 80%. Now, for $140, you can give ultrasounds to five moms. You could help rescue five babies.

Dial pound 250, say the keyword baby, pound 250. Say the keyword baby. You can donate whatever you want. A dollar is well. welcome. But whatever you can do to stop this nightmare and save these babies, I don't think there is anything that would cause more blessings on our cause than saving children's lives. Preborn.com slash back. Eric Schmidt is with us. He's the Missouri Attorney General. He is a great Attorney General in the state of Missouri. And he is running as a U.S. Senate candidate to join the ranks of people

like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee, and I believe both of those guys have endorsed him. Eric, are you the Eric that Donald Trump has endorsed? You better believe it. Yesterday afternoon and was very grateful, and I think if you look at that statement, the endorsement has to do with somebody who's fought for election integrity. That's me. Foreigner security, that's me, taking on the leftist indoctrination of schools, that's me. So, look, this race has always been very clear.

You've got, you know, it made a record of being a proven conservative fighter, been on your show talking about these fights, defending the second minute, you know, standing up the FBI when they want to audit our sheriff for concealed carry permit, leading the way on the vaccine mandate, we were the first take the file on that. We took that case to the Supreme Court and we won. Border security issues, winning on Title 42, taking on the mass mandate, issuing the subpoenas of the local school districts on criminal to race theory. That's my record.

Hey. The other guy is just a quitter. Eric. Wait, wait, wait, Eric. Eric, are you on a speaker phone or something because it's hard to understand you. Can you pick up the phone? Or is it just a bad phone? Perfect, perfect.

So I know you've been fighting for all of these things for guns and life and anti-ESG. Yes, much better. So that's your record and that's who Donald Trump was endorsing. But at six, you announce his endorsement at 5.5. yesterday. At 638 p.m., your competition, if you will, the other candidate who's also named Eric, he claims that he had a call with Donald Trump, and it's him that Trump endorsed. Yeah. The other Eric doesn't have a lot of credibility. I mean, this is the same guy who was a pro-choice Democrat who went to Obama's convention in 2008 cheering on the new reign of a socialist agenda.

And then his, you know, abused his wife and kid quit on Missouri as governor. I mean, this guy's scandal-ridden, lose the seat. And again, you know not that's that guy. If you look at, if you look at that endorsement release that went out, Glenn, there's one person this race that has actually taken on these big important fights, winning on the vaccine mandate, winning on border security issues, taking on, you know, you know, the federal government's overreach infringing upon our rights the first of note. We've got that lawsuit against the Ministry of Truth. We got it, you know, in order from a federal judge to get discovery on big government, including with big tech.

We've taken on all these big fights, and that's why we're searching in the polls. Missourians want a proven conservative fighter. They don't want to quit her. So I'll let the pundits kind of figured out, but I know, you know, I had that conversation with President Trump. That release fits my record, and I'm looking forward to the primaries today to being successful. Yeah, well, you're, I don't know, 13 or 15 points ahead. This guy is, I forgot who this guy was. This guy's a really scandal-ridden dirtbag.

And, I mean, to take the endorsement and claim it to be his only shows Missouri who this guy really is. I mean, if you'll do that, that's incredible. Well, look, here's the reality, Glenn. It is a 50-50 sentence. Okay, the Democrats are two votes away from PATH in the court, and we see how reliable Joe Manchin is, right? There are two votes away from Packing the court at states, the union, federalizing our elections, open borders and amnesty, fundamentally changing this country forever. There are no mulligans. I think we are entering the most consequential decades since the Civil War in this republic history.

We've got to have proven fighters, and this guy's a quitter. He quit on Missouri before. He'll quit on him again. And again, that's why I think we've got the momentum in this. race. Hey, can you tell me why do you think the Department of Commerce and the U.S. census is calling holster companies to find out the information of where their holsters are being sold and who is buying them? And most of the holster companies are saying pound sand. This is What's going on is bizarre.

Look, I think a few weeks ago's on your show we were talking about this issue. The left, they're on the run here because we had a big Supreme Court win in the New York pistol and rifle case. That's a case I led the briefing on, which basically said you don't need to ask a bureaucrat for permission or prove you're in danger to have a concealed carry permit. Missouri is a constitutional. Right. Thank God. But that is a unconstitutional regulatory regime, right? These are God-given rights, and government's job is to protect those rights, not infringe upon them.

But with those losses that we saw at the Supreme Court, the Democrats now are on hyperdrive. They're going to try to weaponize the administrative state. They're trying to get the FBI to audit. Local sheriffs for concealed carry permits. We've already said put a stop to that. You're not doing that Missouri. But this is another end around, glint. I mean, they want to have a gun registry list.

And we know that the Second Amendment is meant not just for hunting and not to for target practice, but also to defend yourself and your family and to protect this country from tyranny. And they know that. They don't like it. They want the second amendment to mean something other than what it is, but we're going to keep fighting for it. The administration, I mean, the only way, Eric, when you get into the Senate in Washington, D.C., you have got to figure out a way with the other senators who will be with you to shut up. this administration state down and take Congress's power back. They are, they, they, they, they, the IRS just bought another $700,000 worth of ammunition.

The Department of Ed is buying ammunition and guns. This is becoming a private army. Posse Cometatus isn't going to be needed to be debated because the administration will have armed guards that are directed directly by the president. It is really not a good thing what's happening. We got to

stop the administrative state. Agreed. And the administrative state Glenn, you know, is so antithetical to our republic because our republic is based on this idea of accountability, right? We the people can send people there and send them home. You have checks and balances. No one

gets too powerful, so you protect individual liberty. And this is, you mentioned, I've been endorsed by Senator Cruz and Senator Lee, and these are conversations I've had with those two senators specifically. I am going to be a foot soldier in this battle against the administrative state. And how often do we see Congressmen and women come home and say, I voted for the greatest bill in the world, but I can't believe what the EPA did or I can't believe what transportation did.

We've got to make Article 1 branch Congress vote on these things. You know, make sure that if these agencies are presenting a new rule, they've got to pull back 10. Put that in statute, not just some executive rules. So this is going to be a fight, but it's a fight worth fighting because this is at the fundamental core of who we are. People have to be accountable in our system of government, and the rise of the administrative state is the opposite of that. We also have cities that are completely out of control. They're sanctuary cities for abortion.

They're trying to take Clarence Thomas out. They'll take any of them out. And when I say take them out, I think they mean by any means necessary. They'll just have some lunatic do it. But they are completely out of control. The CDC is out of control. They are now putting mask mandates on Dallas County just in Texas. But it's Dallas, so it's Progressive City.

They just put in mandatory mask mandates again. We haven't learned our lesson from the last mask mandate. No, and we need to, by the way, we need to bring Faucian for Iran-Katra-style wall-to-wall, multiple-day hearings, and ask questions about what they knew and when they knew it and when they lied. And I, for my part, have taken on. We sued 47 school districts in Missouri for mass mandates. I sued St. Louis and Kansas City for the mass mandates. You talk about runaway cities. I was the first Attorney General in the country to issue the trigger law in Missouri, effectively making Missouri, ending abortion in Missouri. Well, guess what

happens. The mayor of St. Louis now has created a $1 million fund for access to abortion. And we're suing them now, too. So these are fights that we're going to have to keep fighting, Glenn. But again, you have to, these are fights if you're choosing. You don't have to do these things. You can just go around and do ribbon cuttings and go to cocktail parties and be the most popular person. That's not my interest. I don't care about any of that. I want to fight for the people. I want to save this country. And that's why I'm running for the Senate. Eric Schmidt, good luck today. I hope to to be able to call you and congratulate you tomorrow. I think I'm going to, because it's, at least in the polls, you are way ahead.

Thank you so much. We're going to run through the tape, but I appreciate your sentiment. Yeah. No, I appreciate it. If everybody goes out, I mean, the problem is that people, we are in a different world, people, and you cannot afford to just say, oh, well, my guy's ahead, so he's going to win. don't do that. Don't do that.

You've got to go out and vote, and the numbers have to be overwhelming because we are in the battle for the republic. This is it. This is really it. Thank you so much, Eric. I appreciate him. Let me tell you about our sponsor.

This half hour is Goldline. I think Joe Biden, now hear me out, is the greatest president we've ever had. You know, just like the term inflation. I might define best a different way. I mean, why do words have meaning?

I can change that. And I stand by it. He is the greatest, best president we've ever had. Don't ask me to define those words. Anyway, he is quite an amazing president, inflating our money. destroying the value of our dollar, destroying the value of freedom, our just basic freedom to be able to go and buy food, go and raise food and grow food the way we want to, the way that science has told us is the best way to grow food. But we're changing everything. May I suggest when the world is this insane, where we're changing everything, that we look at the world and say, wait a minute, China and Russia and Iran are now kind of working together. Nancy Pelosi is in Taiwan. They just closed the airspace. China did. So she's kind of trapped there unless they're going to give her special permission to leave that airspace. This could be fun. Maybe. Maybe.

Maybe we should think like crazy people and just say, wait a minute, crazy things could happen. I'm going to do the right thing and prepare. I want you to call Goldline right now. Call Goldline right now. I don't think we will be, but with this Nancy Pelosi thing happening, we could be, some sort of war with China by tomorrow, by the end of the week, may not be a hot war, but can you imagine if they decide, you know what, we're not sending stuff over to America anymore? Please call Goldline now at 866 Goldline, 866 Goldline. Ask him about the legal tender bar.

This is something that the Canadian Mint came up with with me, I don't even know, 20 years ago. and they are fantastic. For every legal tender bar purchase this week, you'll receive two of the new one-ounce silver Benjamin Franklin rounds at no cost. So that's an ounce of solid silver. Don't wait to call for the special is going to be gone before you know it. It is only while supplies last, and they will sell out quickly. 866 Gold Line.

866 Gold Line. Call them now. goldline.com. 10 seconds station ID. Stu, I completely forgot that the Eric he's running against is that dirtbag who, I mean, who hasn't? You know, who hasn't

tied up their hairdresser in their basement, you know, in some S&M thing? You know, you know, though, who casts that first stone? Not me. I'll tell you that much. That was what Well, I think I'm well, I think I am willing to cast that for so.

I don't, yeah, I think I am willing to cast that first time. I mean, your, your, your mailman, your gardener, sure, you know, in the basement immediately. But your hairdresser just seems over, over the line on that one. Now, of course, we should point out that he's denying this. He's, of course, denied this. He did not deny the affair with her. He just is denying the imprisonment charges that she was accusing of. Yeah. So that's to be noted, I suppose. I mean, look, you know, I think, I don't know. I don't I don't know. What do you think of this? Because I mean, the reporting on the Trump endorsement does seem like he intentionally did leave the name out and did call both people, which is a very straight. I get, it's kind of, I mean, part of me thinks it's kind of funny. Part of me thinks a little too cute on an important endorsement like this. Why would you do that? What would be the, what would be the reason to do that? I mean, it creates chaos unless you just want to claim afterwards, yeah, I picked the winner. No matter which way it goes.

The reporting sort of vindicates that. And that he also had his things he liked about both candidates and some weaknesses he felt in both candidates. Didn't really have a strong vibe on it, but just thought one of those two should win. And I don't. It's really bad. Yeah, I don't think that's the best. I think Eric Schmidt is the better candidate here. You know, you're right.

The baggage, you know, look, I'm sure. There's all sorts of he said, she said going on in some of these situations. But there's other stuff, there's other scandals that have hit the Gritens campaign. Not to mention, our friend Dana Lash has been super critical about the Second Amendment defense of Gritens as governor. And, you know, when Dana is calling out a Republican for failing on Second Amendment issues, that makes me super nervous. She knows this stuff better than anybody. So, you know, look, there's no reason to take a risk with this one. Eric Schmidt seems like a really good.

good candidate that has a really good record before he was even running. That's really important. Why take a risk with this? It just doesn't make any sense. Yeah, I got to tell you, we cannot, we can't do another Dr. Oz.

We have to have the right candidate, somebody that is known in the state and is a known entity as a defender of the Constitution. And that is Eric Schmidt. So, take that for what it's worth.

Put that in you, pipe and smoke it. The Glenn Back program. Sorry, I was just thinking of Hunter Biden. American financing NMLS-182334. www. nmLS consumer access.org. He's like, yeah, I know, Dad. I am. I am, and I'm doing it with hookers. I want to take a moment. Ask yourself this question. What is holding you back, if anything, from being,

where you want to be financially. And I don't mean inflation, although that's a reality. Forget the transitional economy horse crap. I'm talking about the things that you can change here and now. If you have a lot of credit card debt hanging over your head, interest rates are going higher. And even where they are right now, you're probably barely paying off the balance every month. Are there places you can cut spending and save more? When you think about it, it probably feels like a tangled web and you just can't get yourself out of it and you don't even want to think about it. That's why I'm asking you, take 10 minutes and tell somebody else about it, American financing. They work for you, not the bank.

They will find a way, if they can, to help you out and save hundreds, if not $1,000 a month, $800,906, 2440. Call them now, Americanfinancing.net. I'm not willing to do it again. Will it? This is the Glenn Beck program. So China has taken its first step in retaliation. They have announced live fire training exercises all around the island of Taiwan. But just there.

Don't worry about it. And it's only happening from Thursday through the weekend. So just the time that Nancy Pelosi's plane would be. leaving. And luckily, they're only live fire drills. So, you know, nothing, nothing to be worried about whatsoever in, by the way, one, two, three, four, five, six areas right around surrounding the entire island. But other than that, I don't think they're related at all to Nancy Pelosi's visit. You know, Nancy Pelosi has no right to do this. I don't, I don't mind if a Speaker of the House goes or a Congressman or whatever goes. Just don't announce it, uh, in

advance. Don't put your country in this situation. What would have happened if she didn't announce it would have been what happened when any Speaker of the House would have gone. I think in the 90s, New Gingrich went. It wasn't the tense situation that we're facing now with China. So that made it different. But if you wanted to go, go, don't say anything until you leave. And then what does China say? hey, don't do that again. Instead, she put us in a position of we have to go now because you can't have them dictating your travel plans. And she put the entire world. She deserves sanctions here. And I would say that if it was a Republican that did it. She deserved to be sanctioned. It's not against the law, but Congress should slap her hand.

Look, we have. See if she's still. She's still. see if she reacts or if she just she even feels filled with booze. You know, look, Nancy Pelosi is a high-ranking U.S. official. She's the Speaker of the House, but she was not elected president of the United States. And it is the president of the United States job to dictate our foreign policy or to manage our foreign policy. And, you know, look, this is obviously a big deal in this moment. You know, you've always said, Glenn, don't make threats, make promises when you're in the middle of a negotiation. and here you are with a situation that we are completely incapable of dealing with this right now.

We have the Russia-Ukraine thing going on where we've given $60 billion, and we're in the middle of that thing. We can't even manage that thing. We just ran with the tail between our legs from Afghanistan. I'm very, very happy that Al-Zohiri is dead and it's a good day for the United States. that that happened. Except. Yeah.

Well, yeah, except for the fact that he, you know, the reason why we found him is because he was able to kind of move back in. He was literally living in a house that was either owned by either an aide or an actual Taliban official himself that wrote an op-ed in the New York Times. So they have freewheeling access. All these reports are coming out that it's spinning out of control the same way it was when Al-Qaeda wound up hitting us. We have Russia and Ukraine completely out of control.

And now we have we wait, wait, wait, there's more. We have Iran yesterday announcing that they now have a bomb that could obliterate Israel. Whether that's true or not, we now have that announcement too. Oh, and the fact that they're now partners with Russia. And Russia just sent the message yesterday to China about Taiwan. we're with you. So we now have complete the axis of evil. And I'm not sure which one we're on. Not sure. Are we the axis of evil this time? I don't think we're the axis of evil when you compare us to those nations. But still, you don't want to inflame a situation like this. And let's just say we could just change our situation and put Ronald Reagan in his prime.

back in the office with the most brilliant minds we've ever had in control of a massive situation like this, then maybe, maybe you could argue it's worth considering doing something like this right now. However, instead, you have the least competent people that have ever held any of these offices attempting to manage these situations. I want to make you feel better. I want to make you feel better. Joe Biden is old. He's incompetent. people are talking about maybe, you know, maybe his time is up.

And so don't worry. We have, we have Kamala Harris waiting in the wings. And if something, God forbid, would happen to her, we have Nancy Pelosi. So I think we're covered. I think we're covered. You know, if you had, if you had, I can't think of a sport that plays in threes, but if that was your team, you'd hang yourself. You'd be like, I can't.

I mean, I'm the owner of that team. It looks like the rope for me. It's not a good squad. None of them can... None of them, you know, it's interesting. It's not going to be a winning season. None of the three can speak. Just think of it from a very baseline consideration, a very low hurdle to clear.

None of the three people you've just discussed are able to communicate in an effective manner. I was going to say, so they have a lot in common, but they don't. One is because senility. The next one is because she's an imbecile and the other ones hammered all the time. Yeah, all different reasons. So they don't have a lot of... Yeah.

But not for a common reason. It's really, it's disturbing. And like I am a bit torn on the idea of seeding the travel plans of our officials to the Chinese Communist Party. They don't get to plan where we go and what we do. However, just from a sensible standpoint, from the standpoint of just taking care and realizing we're in a difficult time, understanding we don't want to inflame a situation right now, and understanding that we have incredibly incompetent people at the helm,

the short-term hit to our reputation is a much better bet than the potential long-term damages of World War III? Has anybody had the time because all I've thought about since I heard this was, oh my gosh, we could all be vaporized. So I haven't had even the second to ask, why did she think it was so important? Now, I have a theory, but we'd have to check, and we won't know for a while until they report their stocks.

but seeing that Taiwan is the number one chip maker for sophisticated chips, and she loves to invest in technology, did she just dump all of her chip stocks? And now she's going over like, honey, don't worry about it. We're going to make a fortune because I just dumped all the chip stocks. Maybe she shorted them. That everybody's yelling at me.

She knew this trip was cutting them. Maybe that's what's going. And she's like, China would blow those places up. Yeah. Seriously, would not be surprised, honestly, at this point. Because you're right. Seriously. The headline of this visit is basically a symbolic gesture to support Taiwan. And look, we do support Taiwan in general terms and a symbolic gesture. I'm very angry when people say it's not a country. And this administration, it says we don't recognize their independence. I mean, you know, that's, I think that's ridiculous to me. But, again, you just have to know, you have to pick your battles and you have to be intelligent about this.

And Nancy Pelosi is not. Well, so, so let's just put this in historical context. This is like Neville Chamberlain negotiating with Hitler. Okay. I think it's fair. And I apologize to Neville Chamberlain for using in this analogy him as a replacement for Joe Biden. but totally incompetent okay you got that and and then that let's just say Winston Churchill he decides to go over to Poland and be like you know what

damn it we're with you all right I've been thinking I love the bullish people I just love them and I want you to know where we're going to get them okay I would be for Neville Chamberlain saying, what the hell did you just do? Well, let's just tell them. I love them because they do. That's Nancy Pelosi. You would be with Neville Chamberlain on the procedures of it. If Winston Churchill would have just, if Winston Churchill would have gone over to Poland at that time and gone,

Oh, can I give them? I love you guys. What are they going to do for sausage? without pulling. And I will say not a lot of people think that there's a lot in common between, you know, Winston Churchill and Nancy Pelosi. But there is the drinking. No. There is the drinking.

Yeah. So there is some, they have one thing in common. Yeah. So, honestly, have you heard what is her reason? I mean, why did she just decide to do this? She was on an Asia trip and supposedly wanted to. show her support for for Taiwan, I guess. That's, that's, it really is been described as a purely symbolic visit, which is important to Taiwan.

They want the support of the United States. But like, you know, when the president in the United States and lots of officials in power on the other side of the aisle and everything else are all saying this is a really bad idea, does Taiwan really have the support of the United States? This probably doesn't help them either. Right. So let me ask you this. for, I don't know, two decades, progressives have made a very big deal of first wearing the ribbon and then putting, you know, the colors on, you know,

or a black box on your social media. She decides that this time, instead of going on an Asian tour and wearing a little type, you know, Taiwan flag lapel pin to show her support, she's like, no, I got to get out. I don't like it when people just do stuff on social media or pin a ribbon on themselves. And like that's standing up for Ukraine. Damn it.

It's time we actually put boots on the ground. Probably not something I should say when I'm over there. But it's time about boots on the ground. No, yeah, it does not make any sense. It does not make any sense that she would prioritize this at this moment. You know, and that's why I think it's completely legitimate to suspect something else is going on here. Yeah. So let me, because something else doesn't make sense, too, and I think you'll be with me on this one.

And it revolves around monkey pox. Okay. And so I want to talk about the pox on monkeys' houses. We're going to talk about that, because there's something that I would like to point out in just a minute. Let me take a quick break. Grace lives in Oklahoma, and for decades, she has dealt with pain in her lower back and legs. She would come home from work at the end of the day. She said, it was all I could do to make it evening.

One day, she happened to hear me talking about relief factor on the radio. Grace, you have good taste in radio hosts. And no, I'm sorry. I'm happily married. Anyway, she decided to try it. Within a week or two, she said, I found myself coming home from work feeling just fine. The pain that she had for so long is now gone. Grace got her life back, and so could you. It's a relief factor. It's not a drug. It was developed by doctors, four key ingredients to help

the body fight inflammation, which is our main source of pain in our body. Three-week quick start now. Develop for you, 1995. It's a trial pack. Just try it for three weeks. Seventy percent of the people that try it for three weeks go on to order more month after. month. It's relieffactor.com. 800, the number four relief. Relieffactor.com, 800, for relief.

The Washington Post has just released something that Nancy Pelosi wrote and apparently was embargoed until she landed on the ground. And it's her reason for going over. Basically, she said, because I think it is time

to actually make a statement that with other Taiwanese. Yeah, that's basically it was we were just talking about it as pure symbolism. I mean, it basically is true. She's saying we have a, you know, the Taiwan Relations Act basically says we don't think it's a good idea for Taiwan. on to have to change for any reason that isn't peaceful and we stand by them. And we need to make that point now because it's an important moment in history where we're choosing between authoritarianism and democracy. But she doesn't, she's not the secretary of state. She doesn't speak for the United States. I think she drinks for all of us. But she doesn't speak for us. And it is, insanity to at this time with the world on edge to take it upon yourself not as an elected

representative in foreign countries to speak on the behalf of the United States who the hell does she think she is I know who I am on Nancy Pelosi have you see my refrigerators there there's a there's a disagreement too on the reporting as to how all this came out I I mean, there's an idea that maybe Pelosi told media sources where when it was leaked. The other idea is that Biden realized that they were going to do it and the administration leaked this in advance to stop her from doing it, which then created the problem. Because if she had just gone, as you mentioned, without necessarily telling anyone, you know, maybe this isn't as big a deal. Instead, did Biden actually leak this to get her to stop doing it, which actually created the problem in the first place? Wouldn't it be great?

And I'm not usually a fan of this sort of stuff. You know, it happens in other countries. But maybe we should consider having a spy agency that eavesdrops on everyone's phone. So when they could, when somebody leaks something important, we can just check the phone records and see which dirt bag did it. But that would be a violation of our Fourth Amendment. And so our government would never do this. Isn't it amazing how fast we can find, you know, grandma who was parading in the capital? But God forbid, we can't find the person who leaked the Trump stuff.

It took us years to find that. Then we can't find the people that are leaking this. I mean, we are leak. It's like we hit the iceberg and the captain of the Titanic is like we sprung a little leak. No, no, I think the ship's about to say. nap in half. I'll give you the monkey pock stuff tomorrow. This is the Glenn Back program.
