Hello, America, and welcome to Wednesday. I read an article by Dee Parker yesterday, and it was the case for optimism.
Ten reasons why the pro-freedom right will defeat the anti-liberty left.
And I started reading it and I realized, oh my gosh, this is very, very true.
And we're winning, but it's hard to see it because there's this constant stream of gloom and doom from all sides.
And we need to start looking at the things that are absolutely true that show that we are indeed winning and are on the winning side of history.
And we begin there in 60 seconds.
You know, I went back to the archives just the other day.
I was looking for, gosh, what was it I was looking for?
I was looking for something that I had said on Fox, and I wanted to get the exact wording on it.
And I found the episode where I was warning seniors of their plans that they were getting from, you know, senior citizens, travel plans, you know, that one place that, you know, you join up when you're 50,
55 or plus.
And I was warning and I'm like, look, you have to ask them, why are they supporting the Complete Lives
Project?
Why are they doing this?
And I remembered that is when I met the people of AMAC.
They came in shortly after that and they were saying, right, it doesn't make any sense.
They're not on the side of seniors.
And somebody's got to stand up for freedom and the right things and stop BSing our
seniors. That's when AMAC started. I urge you now to join AMAC, the Association of Mature
American Citizens. They're now two plus million members strong and counting. The benefits are
great. Insurance discounts, roadside assistance program, members only credit card, travel
benefits, phone plans, dental plans, auto plans, all of that stuff. But also they are on the
front lines fighting for the things that you fight for. There is power in numbers. Join AMAC.
for the advocacy, the benefits, and the information.
But more importantly, join Amac because America needs all of us in the fight.
Join today at amac.us.us slash Beck.

So, D. Parker wrote the case for optimism,
10 reasons why the pro-freedom right will defeat the anti-liberty left.
He said,
The leftist enemies of freedom and civil rights are such that it makes it impossible for them to win.
And while it would be a disaster if they were to befall the planet, it would be still hard to be positive.
It is still hard to be positive when it's a steady diet of doom and gloom every day.
Every day brings yet another attack on freedom and progress from people falsely labeling themselves as liberals.
many of these reasons for optimism of the pro-freedom right are because they are directly contrasted with the negative characteristics of the anti-liberty left.
Now, this is really important.
Do you remember years ago I talked about Martin Luther King and how he was right about a couple of things.
one was once you have the images that people can contrast between good and evil,
people will always pick good, Americans will.
Now that is true as long as our Judeo-Christian values are still alive in our heart.
That's why we try so hard to keep our hearts soft.
That's one of the reasons why I started Mercury 1 to remind you how good
it feels to do good.
And we were just reminded this summer when we went and helped people in Afghanistan,
which is still going on.
We have to keep our hearts soft so we can recognize the difference between good and evil.
That's one reason why I say we can't become them and defeat them in the way they want
to defeat us.
We have to go a different path.
Martin Luther King said, if you contrast the two, they will always pay.
the American people will always pick good.
We didn't have the pictures of the German shepherds, you know, being sicked on blacks as they marched in Memphis.
We didn't have the fire hoses.
What we had was a group of people that we felt were Marxists.
And do you remember how they fought against that?
When Newsweek came out and said, we're all, we're all, what was it, socialist now?
We pointed that out at Fox and said, really?
We are because I thought you were denying that you were socialists.
Now they're saying they're out in the open.
And Barack Obama went on a big smear campaign and saying that anybody who claims that he was a Marxist or a socialist was racist.
Now they're coming out and they're embracing Marxism.
As I said to you, they want to tell you exactly what they're doing.
But they can't because the minute they do, you're on to them and you're saying that's not me.
This is what happened in Afghanistan.
When Joe Biden failed miserably and then claimed it to be a victory, Americans saw that and went,
that's not us.
That's not us.
I don't recognize that, those military leaders, I don't recognize our government.
that's not who we are.
And we could contrast that with who we've always been.
Now, let me give you some of the reasons for optimism, according to De Parker.
He says, one, we're on the side of freedom, and anti-liberty left is on the side of authoritarianism.
This is becoming more and more clear.
For instance, Chomsky was just on MSNBC, a couple of days.
days ago. And he said, people who refuse to accept vaccines, I think the right response for them
is to not force them, but rather to insist that they be isolated. If people decide I am willing
to be a danger to the community by refusing to vaccinate, they should say then, well, I also
have the decency to isolate myself. I don't want the vaccine. I don't want the right to run
around harming people.
That should be convention.
Enforcing is a different question.
It should be understood, and we should try to get it to be understood if it really reaches
a point where they are severely endangering people.
Then, of course, you have to do something about it.
So what is he, what is he saying?
He's saying that there should be camps or there should be, they should self-isolate
in their home, but he really means isolate.
because the next question was, well, how do they purchase food?
This isn't how do they go out and work or anything else.
How do they purchase food?
Chomsky's response is telling, well, quote, actually, that's their problem, end quote.
So who is on the side of freedom and people and who is on the side of authority?
authoritarianism. It is becoming clear that the left is authoritarianism and not because we say it,
because their actions are now showing it. Second point of optimism, we have timeless advantages.
The anti-liberty left only has short-term tactics and tricks. Well, let me give you one.
did you see that the military came out yesterday and said,
what is it?
There are 496 Americans still trapped in Afghanistan.
Well, first of all, there are more than 496,
but that is double the amount that they said over the summer.
They said there were about 200.
Okay.
So double the amount over.
double the amount and then it later they said there was less than a hundred now they're saying there's
almost 500 the truth is that it is much larger than 500 could be in the thousands one two
three thousand could be five thousand nobody really knows but when we said that we were called
conspiracy theorists we were called all kinds of names unreliable
it is becoming apparent that their short-term tactics and their tricks don't work.
Another example of this is, well, it's just transitory.
Don't worry about inflation.
It's just transitory.
Well, it's not transitory, is it?
Have you checked what you're paying for meat?
Have you checked what you're paying for gas?
Have you noticed how expensive almost everything is?
Did you know that this Thanksgiving, the meal that you put down, the traditional
Thanksgiving meal here in America will cost you more than it ever has in the history of our country.
That's saying something. It's not transitory. It is something that we should be working to solve.
All of their short-term tactics and tricks, they all fail. But we have the truth on our side.
We have mathematics on our side.
We have evidence on our side.
Three, while we can be honest, the anti-liberty left has to lie to survive.
Sanjay Gupta was a great example of this with the horse dewormer stuff.
That is a Nobel Prize winning medicine.
Yet everybody had to claim that it was horse dewormer.
Why?
to stop people from getting the,
stop people from getting some sort of treatment
and to focus everyone on the vaccine.
We all know the truth.
The vaccine is effective.
If you want to get it, you can get it.
We also know that there are other things
that will help ease the pain if you have COVID.
Horse dewormer is not one of the,
them. However, the Nobel Prize winning human version of that may help, but they have to discredit
everything. January 6th, January 6th is another case. Why is it that they won't release all of the video?
Well, there is a really fascinating report that is out now from Revolver that looks like that maybe the FBI was involved in setting this up.
We'll give you that story coming up.
But they always have to lie to survive.
We can be honest.
We believe in civil liberties is number four.
They don't.
Let me again give you.
this. This is the scariest thing I have heard from a government official, perhaps of all time.
And it came out of, out of Rochelle Walinsky's mouth. She's the CDC director. Last Sunday,
she said, there is a plan to get unvaccinated essential workers, education, and counseling,
so they will feel comfortable getting vaccinated. I got news for you. I'm not getting vaccinated.
I have antibodies.
And I am not going to go through some government education.
And I certainly will not sit down with a government-sponsored therapist for counseling.
So, wait a minute.
Which one of us believes in civil liberties?
Which one of us really is fighting for freedom of speech?
Which one of us is fighting for the freedom of the press?
Did you see yesterday?
two new people were appointed to the FCC, hardline lefties.
That is going to affect my job, my voice, your ability to hear me on radio.
Mark my words.
They have to shut people down.
That's not somebody who believes in the Bill of Rights.
The fifth reason to be optimistic.
We love America and the average person loves America.
They do. We have problems and we're honest about those problems. But the anti-liberty left hates America.
Look at Colin Kaepernick. We believe in individual rights is number six. The anti-liberty left believes in collective rights.
Vaccines. The mandates. The passports. By the way, the FDA has approved one of the vaccines for kids.
So I guarantee you the collective right of your kid and you to be the parent of your kid and decide what goes into his body and what doesn't go into their body.
You're going to lose that right if you're not standing up.
By the way, Terry McCullough, he doesn't mind.
You as a parent don't have a right to raise or teach your kids or question what your kids are learning in school.
Number seven is economic liberty has always worked.
and societal slavery of socialism has never worked.
You know, they said the model is China.
Have you seen what's happening in China lately?
Number eight, we're productive in society.
Those who believe in the Bill of Rights, the Constitution,
and the Declaration of Independence,
we generally are productive in society.
Anti-liberty leftists are parasites.
Good example of this is unrealized gains.
What are unrealized gains in the stock market?
That means if you're a teacher, your teacher's union has your pension and your pension is in the stock market.
And every time the stock market goes up, you're now going to have to pay for those unrealized gains.
Another words, even if you don't pull that money out, you're going to pay to the government the privilege of that money,
making money. Elon Musk just came out and said, this is insanity. Insanity. And it is.
You know, this goes back to their lies and their tricks. They say they've already paid for everything.
No, they haven't. Or they wouldn't be looking for unrealized gains. Or if they say, no, we're not into
redistributive wealth. We're not into socialism and killing the system. Then they wouldn't be doing this.
because this will hurt the stock market.
People will pull their money out of the stock market.
Why?
Because you can't afford to pay the unrealized gains
without pulling the money out of the stock market.
The last one I want to hit here is
Pro Freedom Right outnumbers the anti-liberty left.
And I'll show that to you in 60 seconds.
American Financing NMLS 1 8,000.
334 www. nmls consumer access.org.
It is really critical right now to pay attention to your financial health.
What can you do today to guarantee a healthy financial future?
Well, there are no guarantees in anything, but you can set yourself up if you're a homeowner.
The solution may be as simple as mortgage refinancing.
The people to help is American financing.
American financing's mortgage consultants can customize a loan to meet your needs.
however they manifest themselves.
Maybe it's a shorter term that you need or a lower rate.
Maybe it's just access to cash.
They can do all of that and more.
It's a no pressure experience.
I don't know about you, but I could use a little less pressure right now.
And somebody who's not trying to trick me, lie to me or take my money,
you're not going to encounter any of those things.
No upfront fees.
There's no tricks.
There's no pressure at all.
You might also be able to postpone up to two mortgage payments.
How could that help you out right now?
Consolidate your debt, refi your debt, talk to American financing.

10 seconds, station ID.
So the book Hidden Tribes, A Study of America's Polarized Landscape.
shows that the pro-freedom right outnumbers the anti-liberty left.
The hardcore left, the far-left, only comprises 8 to 10% of the population.
So why is it we feel outnumbered?
The reason why we feel outnumbered is because these 8 to 10% of Americans gravitate to culture, movies, art, newspapers,
radio, not radio, but television, the cultural things that affect all of us, the national socialist
media, the government indoctrination centers, the education. That's why this 8 to 10% can influence
more than sometimes we can, and they seem more powerful than they really are. However, 25% were
conservatives of the pro-freedom right, with the middle classified as liberals, politically
disengaged, or moderates.
So it is 8% trying to sway the rest using cultural norms.
We are 25%.
If we just get smart, we can affect and sway a lot more people.
that's why they're trying to shut anyone who is effective at it down.
That's why you don't see effective conservatives on television or any place else.
Nobody who is effective is going to be on Netflix or Amazon.
That's just the way it is.
However, they're doing damage.
The 8 to 10% are so far left that they are overplaying their hand
and they're exposing themselves and exposing conservatives as the ones who had it right the whole time.
People have been buying in, the mushy middle has been buying in,
that conservatives have been overreacting to these people,
that these people aren't trying to destroy the free market and drag us into an authoritarian camp.
Now, because they are so emboldened and only surrounded in those power centers by people like them,
They're exposing themselves, and thus they are hurting themselves, another reason to be optimistic.
Back in just a minute.
One of the things that this job affords and my position in my career, which I never had when I was much, much younger, is in my position, I can pick and choose who advertises with me.
and I can cancel if they aren't who they say they are.
And I get the chance to tell you about, I think, great businesses.
One of those businesses is Patriot Mobile.
I believe they are actually really part of the solution to America.
My job is to convince you that we have to stand together and stop paying these giant corporations who are working against us and go and put our money.
where our mouth and our heart is in places that can and are helping us and offering the same great
service and you're going to save money Patriot mobile is one of those companies you're going to

Tonight on my Wednesday night special, President Biden's radical climate agenda.
What is already in place and what is coming right around the corner.
Nothing else rivals the climate agenda with the Biden administration.
This is their top priority because it is another way to lock.
people into place and take your freedoms and your liberty the scope and the cost of this agenda is
staggering it is the fundamental transformation of America it is the great reset so much about
climate change you know net zero green energy and ESG is a total and complete scam take electric
vehicles California banning the sale of all new gas powered vehicles by 2035 Biden
signed an executive order calling for half of all new car sales to be electric by 2030.
But nobody ever goes into the fine print.
There's a 2014 study published by the National Academy of Sciences.
Hmm, let's follow science.
They looked into the entire life cycle of an electric vehicle and its emissions.
From mining the metals to making the batteries to producing the electricity to power them,
The study found that when electric vehicles are charged with coal-powered electricity, they are actually worse for the environment than gas-powered vehicles.
And yet, the Democrats are dragging America toward electric cars that they think will run on solar and wind power.
Both have major issues of their own, and they are fast-tracking us to disaster.
Tonight, I want to show you exactly what they're doing, what they're planning, and how good.
going green is the biggest scam in history.
Join me tonight. Build back bankrupt.
How Biden's climate agenda will financially ruin you.
That's tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern on blazTV.com and Blaze TV YouTube page.
Right after a brand new.
Right. Okay. We got it.
Now, as we're sitting here and we're trying to rebuild a media,
based on the principles that our founders saw, real, true freedom of the press, and another
almost quasi branch of the government, one that is part of the checks and balances.
I have been reading and rereading a speech from 1961 from John F. Kennedy.
He gave it at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City, and he gave it to the American
Newspapers Publishers Association.
he was really upset because the coverage of the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, you know, wasn't real happy towards him.
And so he came to the press and he asked them for two things.
The need for greater public information and the need for far greater official secrecy.
Now, I would hope that both of those things would.
run almost offensive to all of us still today.
But in 61, it was big.
Kennedy conceded.
He said the two things appear to be contradictory.
Secrecy is seen, quoting, as repugnant in a free society.
In balancing a free and open society with a cold and secret war, he implored the audience of
newsmakers or news printers when they're going to report a story, ask themselves,
two questions. Is it news and also is it in the best interest of America and national security?
I would say the same thing today. Is it news and is it in the best interest of the United States
of America? If not, why? Because that might be something that you have to add in the story.
All right.
To hear a president give any kind of recommendation to the press,
back then when we had an informed populace,
it went against the grain of everybody.
The press still prided itself in at least the appearance of neutrality
and journalistic ethics, which are long gone.
The idea of the press concerning itself with the goals of a president
was still a repugnant idea, and Kennedy knew it.
So he patted this speech with continuous assurances that this was a request and by no means an order from the president.
He reminded the press that the press is the only industry, the only industry that is specifically referenced in the Constitution for protection.
there is nothing else that is protected by the Bill of Rights as a business other than the press.
The free flow of news, discussion, debate were so clearly necessary to a free republic.
The founders explicitly protected it in the First Amendment.
And the press knew that the president knew.
You speak to a free press or a free people with words.
even insinuating government interference in the free flow of information, and you would be over,
at least back in 1961.
But he was confident in his request, but cautious, like a president who knew his job demanded
the consent of the governed.
And that is the biggest thing that I have taken away from this.
When you listen to his speech, he knew better.
He knew better.
He joked about the press.
He gently reminded them of the sharks and muckrakers that they were, but he spoke to the press with respect because of their role in informing the populace, which is a prerequisite for a functioning republic and freedom.
In a letter to Richard Price, Thomas Jefferson wrote, whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government, that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set things to write.
rights. Is that the, is that the, that was the message of Kennedy speech. That's the message of
Thomas Jefferson. Is that the message of this administration? Or really any administration,
do they believe that things are so far off that we should listen to the people because the people
will set things right? Or are they doing everything to shut the people down and tell the people,
you can't fix this.
We are the ones that can fix it.
In the end of his speech, Kennedy really reflects almost exactly the sentiments and words of Thomas Jefferson.
I am not asking your newspapers to support an administration, but I am asking your help
in the tremendous task of informing and alerting the American people, for I have complete confidence
and the response and dedication of our citizens
whenever they are fully informed.
Okay, he goes on to ask the press to point out his errors, saying this.
Without debate, without criticism,
no administration and no country can succeed,
and no republic can survive.
That is why the Athenian lawmaker Solon decreed a crime
for any citizen to shrink from controversy.
And that is why our press was protected
by the First Amendment.
Isn't this amazing?
Are you hearing anyone
saying that full-throated
debate?
Debate must happen.
You're being shouted down if you disagree.
You're being fired if you disagree.
Here's Kennedy
saying this is a freedom
that everyone has and no republic
will survive without it.
It's the people's best judgment,
not his.
Back then, the president still believed in the American people.
He believed that given all of the information, the American people would make the right choices and the government would follow the people.
This is completely different than today.
Because today, they don't believe in you.
They believe the press's job is not to let the facts lay where they are.
just state the facts and let the people decide.
Instead, our leaders are saying this today.
Do you think you need to do a better job at messaging and going forward?
How do you sell this?
If ultimately you have to be very good.
Well, I think you all could do a better job of selling it, to be very frank with you.
Wow.
So their job now is to sell it.
Let me give you a couple of other examples here.
The supply chain.
the media is now turning not on Biden on the supply chain.
They are now blaming you on the supply chain.
Let me give you a couple of examples.
The Atlantic supply chain problems could be solved more quickly
if affluent Americans would stop buying things they don't need
or often don't really want.
I don't know the last time I bought things that I didn't really want.
Instead of questioning the Biden administration,
they are they're not asking about the cargo ships,
uh,
the unions,
the talk workers.
They're not asking about any of that.
They're not informing you.
They are blaming you.
Vox said affluent consumers need to abandon their Christmas gift owners,
uh,
orders and the thoughtless buying that they do to prioritize saving the environment.
Oh.
Okay. All right. So it's your fault. Let me give you this. This came from U.S. national news and
politifact. Miscaption images of empty grocery store shelves are unrelated to current global supply chain shortages,
multiple fact checkers report. So they were talking about people who were taking pictures of empty shelves.
And they're saying these are from other countries. These are from storms. You can't believe.
any of those. So last week I asked you, give me the date, give me the place, and show me the empty
shelves because the press is saying they don't exist. Let's bring up some of the pictures.
We have pictures. This is from Mansfield, Ohio. We're experiencing temporary shortages on select
products doing to supply chain issues. We thank you in advance for understanding, showing the
empty shelves. Let's go to the next one.
This is from Walmart.
Look at the empty shelves.
Another one.
Empty shelves.
Here's another.
Empty shelves.
Next.
Empty shelves.
Empty shelves.
Let's go to Florida.
I'm in Florida where ports are open.
Toilatries, liquids, and specialty products all look like this.
Empty shelves.
Next.
More.
Empty shelves.
More again.
in Pennsylvania, I want to show you the meat market in Pennsylvania.
This, the first one go back one.
Yeah, there it is, that one.
The meat market, look how much is empty.
In Houston, Texas.
This is the H.E.B.
On San Felipe, woman at the, and by the way, if you're not from Houston, I did pronounce that right.
The woman at the deli counter said there's a food shortage coming.
She said, food shortage coming.
It's already here.
Look at that.
Again, a closer look at it.
This is in South Carolina, the meat.
Again, look at the empty shelves.
Look at the empty shelves then of the eggs and the milk.
In Gilbert, Arizona.
Same situation.
It doesn't look like America, does it?
It does not look like America.
And that's why the press is covering.
But that's not what the press is.
supposed to do. Kennedy could have berated reporters for hard questions, threaten them with disinformation
labels to silence their opinions. He could have shamed the news media for sharing information
that compromised his agenda. He could have chosen not to believe in the American system or the
American people, but Kennedy didn't. And you can hear in this speech that he is upset with the
media. You can tell. But he knew his limits. He knew he didn't have that. He knew he didn't have
the authority to stifle the free press.
He couldn't sell censorship to free people.
They would have his head.
Kennedy knew he couldn't get away with that.
The press wouldn't let him.
The American people wouldn't let them.
So what did the left do?
They captured the universities.
And they started teaching the press new things.
Our press has forgotten.
who they are a long time ago. They forgot their job, which is to inform the electorate in an
effort to preserve our republic. They don't inform, they instruct, they shape, they suppress
information. But let me ask you this. Did we forget who we are now, too? The fact that Kennedy
spoke with so much attentiveness to our rights and freedoms was as much a reflection of the American
people at the time as it was a respect for the institutions.
He knew he needed the consent to govern.
We let our politicians get away with everything.
They bully our press, subdued debate, they partner with social media, crack down on
information they don't like.
They are mocking us saying it's not about freedom.
It's not about freedom.
Government has forgotten they need our consent.
But is it better or worse that we.
forgot it too.
More in a minute.
Let me tell you about Car Shield.
When you're sitting there in the front office of the mechanic shop, reading the estimate
for how much it's going to take to fix your car and trying all your tears with the
money that you're about to give them, there are three words that are going to come to
mind.
Let's go, Brandon.
You know what I'm saying?
And you'd be right to think that.
But there are three words that could probably fit even better.
Should have gotten Car Shield.

Azra Nomani is with us. And hopefully, I think,
you have some good news for us, Azra.
Oh, yes. I hope everyone's strapped in.
Yeah, good. Good. I'm ready to hear some good news.
What is happening on the school board front?
Well, what's fantastic is that we have this mama bear revolution
just, you know, coming up in school districts around the country,
and we have made the School Board Association back down from their threat against our parents.
Of course, they issued an apology to their own members Friday night,
one of those Friday night misses that they hope will get ignored,
but they don't realize we're all home because our kids are home, right?
We're paying attention to everything.
You know, I don't think they got the memo or they forgot that.
little point about
having eyes in the back of our heads.
Yes.
Glenn,
like you're an investigator,
you're a researcher,
but you don't even have anything on a mom,
right?
Oh, no.
Uh-uh.
You really don't.
You really don't.
And once,
so,
you know,
we've got these mama bears,
and I,
I think we all grew up
reading a little Nancy Drew
because we know
how you got to
follow the money.
You have to find out the truth.
We don't accept
white lies,
right?
We don't accept this kind of nonsense.
And so what we were able to do last week was, you know, earlier we established really clearly
that the Attorney General had a conflict of interest with his son-in-law running a company
that profits off of school board decisions, the company called Panorama Education.
And then with this great work that our mom-in-chief at Parents Defending Education did,
she sent Freedom of Information Act requests to every single member of the National School Board
Association's board of directors.
Their emails are open to public scrutiny.
Correct.
And so in those emails, we got evidence that the School Board Association interim director,
Chip Slavin, acknowledged that he'd been in talks with the White House for, quote, several weeks before he issued.
the letter asking for intervention from the Justice Department, and voila, you've got this,
you know, this completely cooked up.
So there's something new as well.
There is a new member to the National Assessment Governing Board.
Are you aware of this?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
So she was the co-signer on this letter calling for help.
from the White House, and Ms. Garcia's name,
and she is the president of the National School Board Association.
And so conveniently, she was named by the Education Secretary,
as we know, a political appointee in the Biden administration,
to this much coveted role, you know,
that now has oversight over school court card every year.
And again, bringing it back to the money,
industry that has emerged over the last several years,
particularly of this thing called education technology,
hinges its work on, like it's very dubious,
some of their evidence-based.
It's really not evidence-based.
It's important that we understand that these government appointments
help private industry and in some cases not,
for profits that are actually working for profit.
I got another headline for you, Glenn,
because I know you love breaking news.
Chip Slavin, I just up late last night,
investigating this, but Chip Slavin,
the interim president for the National School Board Association,
he has been an advisor to an education technology company,
and that company has,
Its founder is the chair of the commission that Garcia was appointed to.
You've got to be kidding me.
Yeah, I need.
I mean, this is just so incestuous.
Yeah, I knew you would understand.
You, I can see your mind working, connecting the dots and understanding exactly what I just told you.
So, yeah, it's incestuous.
And it's everything, it's just traditional, like, gumshoe reporting that we have to
do on this and we have to remember always that school system that has your child walking through
its doors is part of an industry like we have to always put now incorporated at you know behind every
like it's Fairfax county public schools incorporated it really is um it's it's really disgusting
that they hide behind these are public schools and we hate corporations because as as we saw with
Common Core, a lot of the goals that are being set now by these corporations in the guise of
helping students is just to make better workers for those corporations.
Yeah, better workers and then also build a market, right?
They're building a market.
So this is the rest of the story that I definitely want to make sure that we get time
to talk about. So for the last four months, I've filed 200 plus voias with the public school systems
in America. And we created something that we've called the consultant report card. And the last time
I was on, I promised your listeners that I'm going to give them a top 10 list of companies to look for
in their school district. We've got it. Go to defending ed.org and look for the consultant report card.
And one of the first blogs that we've got, their blog posts is the list of the top 10.
But then beyond that, we've identified 200-plus companies and consultants that have $1 million in contracts that we've documented.
And you know, Glenn, this is just tip of the ice ice.
Oh, yeah.
And, of course, and the number one company is Panorama Education.
And so, yeah, and so right now we just dropped a piece in real,
clear education that I want everyone to look at, like go to my Twitter thread and I'll tag you
on it also.
But everyone needs to know, like, this company, Panorama education as an example, they are
using something called social and emotional learning to data mine your kids and psychologically
profile them.
And we have an example in our column today that I co-wrote with my colleague Erica Sansey,
where you can see to nine students in Portland public schools
in one particular school that one boy said that he was gay.
Like, do I need to know that information?
No.
Does a company in Boston need to know that information?
No.
And guess what?
They also are surveying the parents.
So I know now, and you know now,
all you got to do is Google Portland Public Schools
and Panorama Screener survey results.
And you will know how many parents,
self-identify as questioning, as non-binary, as transgender, and then heterosexual, since, you know,
they count too.
And this is all being done by the school district?
So what is happening is the school district, this big enterprise, is outsourcing to these
contractors like Panorama education, this work.
We found in Fairfax County, Virginia, is that they are able to bypass all these privacy
laws that are put in place to protect our young people, contract that panorama education
officials are deemed.
That's how they get access to the information.
Let me go back to the School Board Association, the National School Board Association.
We have Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Ohio now dropping out and saying, we don't want anything
to do with the National School Board Association because of the letter.
now with the news not only of the letter, but the collusion with the White House and the money that is being made and the, I think it was a letter to protect that money to the attorney general.
Why aren't more state school board associations pulling out of the national school.
board association.
Yes.
So these are the ones that have pulled out, as you said, but our number now is at 21 states
out of 50, right, that have distanced themselves and reprimanded the National School Board
Association for their letter.
So this is like classic.
Why wouldn't they pull out, though?
Why would they, why are they just saying, hey, this is a bad?
What do they get from the National School Board Association?
Yeah, you know, Glenn, it's the same.
machine, right, that Washington trade groups pull on state organizations or, as you know,
like we do this in industry, we do it in public office.
Like this is our public roles.
Like this is why the teachers union has such power, right, as a national, like they claim to
represent the states.
These are, I pulled the 990 on the National School Board Association.
it's a multi-million dollar
nonprofit, quote-unquote nonprofit, right?
And they, you know, they get, they just
local folks, as you know, oh, we're going to represent you in Washington.
We're going to lobby for you.
We're going to get, you know, you know what they do.
Like they get their language and the appropriation language.
They get money funneled to the states.
Whatever, you know, shenanigans they're trying to pull in D.C.
They claim that they can do it better.
I have to tell you,
I if you are a
parent you should go to your local school board
and demand that they send the message to the state school board
you don't want anything to do with the national school board association
this is obviously corrupt you now have two people
that you can point to directly
that are part of this incestuous
I don't even a cabal
that is his silencing parents and mining our children,
you've got to get away from the National School Board Association.
And no matter if you really think that they're doing things,
they must be taught a lesson.
And that lesson will only be taught when they lose everything.
They have to lose everything.
Nikki, our president, put it really well yesterday when we were just chatting.
and she said, you know, they need a house cleaning.
And that house cleaning is only going to happen when the state's revolt, basically.
And they say that we will not participate in this war that you have launched against the very people in our communities that we were elected to represent.
I only have about a minute left.
FDA advisors recommend Pfizer's vaccine now for children ages 5 to 11.
You know now that is coming as a mandate to our kids.
this is not going to help calm parents.
Yeah, you know, Glenn, I have a 19-year-old,
and I just thank the heavens that I don't have to take that decision
that the parents of these young kids are having to navigate right now.
We have really failed our society on this public health message.
We're turning it into edicts and directives and, you know, much,
much like this, you know, top down on school boards, you know, and trying to silence us as parents.
And so just what we encourage is please everyone, whatever position you have, advocate, you know,
just you are the voices of your children and whatever conclusion you come to from that place
of reason and love that you have as a parent.
Please, like, overcome any fears that you have and look at, watch.
the videos of school board meetings.
You know, yesterday we spent the night all watching Loudoun County.
And I don't want to drop that bomb in the last seconds of our conversation.
But it's all indicative that, like, it just takes one parent, you know.
In every situation, one parent, courage is contagious.
Thank you so much, Ezra.
I appreciate it.
We'll talk to you again.
Let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins book.
I want to read you something that Paul in Pennsylvania wrote in recent.
He and his wife said they felt like salmon swimming upstream when it comes to passing their values and beliefs onto their 11-year-old son.
Everything is so crazy, and they are constantly trying to capture his mind and his heart against really everything the family believed in.
So Paul's been reading his son, the Tuttle Twins books that I've been talking to you about.
This is what he wrote that I thought was really important.
It's a blessing to have our values reflected by a number.
voice.
That is true, so true, and your voice, you are not alone.
You are in the majority.
There is strength in numbers and more strength in education, especially if you can make
it fun and interesting.
And the Tuttle Twins books do both.
Tuttle Twins, they are an absolute household staple.
You need them in your home.
We can't lose this generation.
and you have to plant these things deep in them.
And Tuttle Twins is the best way to do it.
They explain really complex things and make it easy and fun.

So there is another story.
You know, the FDA is saying that Pfizer's COVID-19 clinical trial went well, blah, blah, blah.
But there were only, I think, like, 1,500 kids.
I thought it was 2000 and something like that.
2000.
So there is a problem with one of the 12-year-olds, Maddie.
she got a clinical trial for COVID-19.
The parents thought they were doing a right thing.
Maddie, previously healthy, energetic, full of life.
Within 24 hours of her second dose was reduced to crippling, screaming-induced pain
that landed her in the emergency room where she described feeling like someone was ripping her heart out through her neck.
This according to her parents.
Over the next several months, the nightmare continued, during which Maddie was hospitalized several times.
and suffered numerous systematic injuries or systemic injuries requiring a tube through her nose that carries her food and medicine and a wheelchair.
They document the parents documented all of this.
The principal investigator for Pfizer at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, where the vaccine clinical trial was occurring and Maddie was treated and admitted.
They first tried to treat Maddie as a mental patient saying that this was all in her head.
then they claimed that whatever it was was unrelated to the vaccine.
When that argument failed, Pfizer listed this traumatic adverse event as functional abdominal pain when reporting it to the FDA.
There was a real effort to cover this up by the FDA.
I'm not saying that the FDA is evil and there's no.
no reason to get this and it's a dangerous drug. I'm just saying we have to be careful. It is
our children we're talking about. Not us and not those of us who are older and are most likely
to die from COVID. It's our children. Be careful and do all of your research.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Welcome.
Tonight at 9 p.m.
It is a very important episode of our Wednesday night special.
It is President Biden's.
radical climate agenda.
What's already in place?
What's right around the corner?
Nothing else rivals the climate agenda within the Biden administration.
This is their main priority.
It is going to cripple us.
Honestly, it is why we are having high prices with gas right now.
That's their climate agenda.
They canceled the Keystone pipeline because they don't want to have, you know,
us using fossil fuels and oil and coal.
And so what are they doing?
They canceled and fired everybody on the pipeline, shut that thing down.
And our prices started to go up.
We're no longer energy independent.
That's why the White House is having to beg OPEC to open up and sell us more oil
because they want them to do it, not us.
in doing so, putting the climate at risk by shipping it overseas.
This is not going to get better because they are causing it intentionally.
Do you remember when Barack Obama said, you know, $5 a gallon gasoline would be a good thing?
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
I mean, they want gas prices to be through the roof.
That way, they can get you to buy an electric car.
The problem with electric cars is if you're getting your energy,
through fossil fuels,
aka coal,
you're doing more damage to the planet
than you are having a gasoline engine,
you know, powered car.
And if it's not coal,
it's likely going to be natural gas,
which is also a fossil fuel,
as some people might know.
And they are cutting down on natural gas as well.
They want to make sure that we stop with natural gas.
That is one of the reasons why
your fuel for your home to keep it warm.
It's already snowing in some parts of the country.
So you're already starting to see this.
Your energy price to keep your heat going this winter is going to be anywhere from 50 to 80% higher than it was last year.
So it doesn't, I mean, look, this is the climate agenda.
It is the new normal that they talk about.
You're not going back unless these things are stopped.
I want to show you what they're doing tonight, what they're planning, and how going green is the biggest scam in American history.
Tonight, build back better bankrupt, how Biden's climate agenda is going to financially ruin you.
I want more alliteration in this title.
Do you?
More.
Good.
I got it.
I got it.
I could do it.
I want it to be like seven B words in a row.
Uh-huh.
Tonight, I've got a B word for you.
Tonight, 9 p.m. Eastern blazedTV.com and Blaze TV YouTube.
By the way, did you see the New York Times?
I think it was the daily podcast where they're like,
how did one senator blow up Joe Biden's climate plan?
Well, he worked with 50 other senators.
That's how he did it.
He agreed with 50 other ones.
So there's 51.
That's how we did it.
It's not a mystery.
I know.
And they came out and I think it was Bernie Sanders who said,
one senator.
This is not right.
One senator is not going to go against the 49.
49 to 1, that's not right.
No, it was 51.
52, really?
52 to 48.
That's what it was.
Yes.
And by the way, you need 60 in any normal circumstance.
Crazy.
But you're already bending the rules to get to 50, and you can't even get that.
Because your plan is insane.
So can I ask you, is there a bigger hero than Inez Cantor right now?
is there a oh yeah i mean this guy i don't know if you've been following while you've been gone
but he doubled down again yesterday he's been going after china and nike and by the way
this is truly very brave very i'm so sick of hearing oh so brave they came out for the
biden administration and wow the bravery the bravery and they came against white people wow so brave
so brave no it's not yeah like kairie irving was the bravest guy
in the planet when he was basically recommending
that the NBA shut down over the
George Floyd protests. But now
that he doesn't want to get his vaccine, he's not
brave at all. He's not brave for avoiding
$35 million of salary that he could have
because he doesn't want to get the vaccine. That's not
brave. That's just silly. It was brave
when he didn't want to play because of George Floyd.
Well, I will tell you this. It is the white man
that is pushing the vaccine, the very old
white man in Washington. And he's going to
lose $34 million. That's true. Maybe it's
Yeah, it is a racist thing.
Of course it is.
So anyway, yesterday he comes out and says,
Dear Nike, stop modern day slavery now.
Then he challenged Nike founder Philip Knight,
LeBron James and Michael Jordan's brand to visit these slave labor camps
and you'll see it with your own eyes.
He tweeted a pair of shoes covered in fake blood with the words slave labor and hypocrite Nike.
I love this.
Then he tweets to the owner of Nike Phil Knight.
How about I book plane tickets for us?
Let's fly to China together.
We can try to visit these slave labor camps.
You'll see it with your own eyes.
Everyone's welcome to come.
See, the problem is you might fly together, but only he comes back.
You're not coming back.
You don't want to visit China right now.
You would be the last person that I would go.
to China with. It would not work out well for you. It's about time somebody called out LeBron James
too on this. I'm excited to see that. He's been doing that as well. It's like, oh, they deserve every
little bit of it. You know, I mean, I think this is turning. I really do. I think the tide is
turning. It's still early. And we got a lot of work to do. But people are starting to wake up.
And it's, I think it's turning. I, you know, I don't know that it, you know, it's interesting. You know, it's
interesting. I think there is a group of people in our society, which I don't know what the
percentages. You said, what was it, eight to ten percent of the far left? Yeah, the crazy. Yeah,
the crazy left. I think it's a small percentage of people who believe this nonsense, who want,
and what was the, what did the professor say the other day that, um, scientific rigor was just
an, uh, uh, an artifact of the white run society. Yeah.
And it's like, no one actually believes that, right? I mean, there might be five.
people in academia who think that only white people actually are smart enough to participate in
scientific rigor.
No, wait, hang on just a racist standpoint.
It's a very racist standpoint.
All of this, I think, is very racist.
Yeah, that's what I mean.
I think, like, you know, when it comes to the CRT stuff, when it comes to the gender craziness,
when it comes to, you know, acting like we should ban play and punish teams for criticizing
Chinese
slave labor camps
like 99%
95% I don't know what it is
it's something like that of the American
people inherently know that that's
terrible and you made the point earlier
of when people see the side by
side
they start to
to choose correctly
when one side is
let's punish dad for
complaining at a
school board meeting because
his daughter was raped by someone in a skirt in the girls restroom.
I mean, that is just like, this stuff is so far and you hate to see the need for examples like this.
But when people see these examples, they can't help but choose correctly, I think.
Well, so what's going to happen with McCullough?
Because, you know, he not only is tied right directly into all of the stuff of the school board.
He's tied now into the statement that I don't think Virginians took very.
very well with Barack Obama over the weekend.
You know, that this is, you know, rape is just hype.
It's nonsensical to talk about that, really?
Yeah, that's a fake culture war battle.
Is it really?
Huh.
Sounds pretty serious to me.
So I don't think that's going to go well for him.
But this thing is so close.
It's close because this is a blue state.
Virginia is not even a purple state.
People keep calling it a purple state.
Occasionally Republicans get close in these races, but it's been a while here.
And, you know, this is a plus 10 Biden.
in state. And if you view it through that prism, you should see McColliffe, who's already been
governor of the state, right? Should win this by 10 or 12, right? Maybe 8. But every poll is showing
that this is basically a toss-up at this point. Now, at the end of the day, you're in a state
that is blue, just like we were in a state in California, that is blue. And while it looked like
elder had a chance there maybe a few weeks before the election and it was kind of close.
There was never a, I don't think a, it never got over 20% on predicted to win that race.
I don't understand.
Here, this is a, I think this is a closer one.
If McCallif wins this race by two, this is a terrifying outcome for Democrats.
And I think one of the things you talk about trying to stop this multi-trillion dollar spending
bill, there's a lot of ways you can try to do it.
You can call your congressman.
Sure, that's a great idea.
There's a lot of things you can do.
But if there's any way you can participate in helping make Terry McColliffe a loser in this race,
you want to stop that bill?
You will terrify Democrats if McColliffe loses that race.
Well, they didn't last time.
I mean, the last time when we had the Tea Party movement, that didn't really terrify the Democrats.
I mean, you had the biggest wave election you've ever seen.
Now, they had already pushed through their.
big proposals there at that time. And that was part of the reason it was the biggest wave election
we'd ever seen. But you had all those local elections the year before just like this that went
away from the Democrats and the Democrats didn't flinch. They did push that one through. And look,
I think they will try. There still will be a lot of them. They also had 60 senators for that
race. They didn't need, this is like they have no margin for error here. And already you have
multiple senators who don't want to go along with this.
I mean, I think both cinema and Mansion realize they're putting themselves in danger if they, if they go ahead with this before this.
This bill cannot pass.
It can't pass because so many things that are required for, you know, the Great Reset are in this bill.
And it just can't pass.
Just cannot pass.
If you want to hear, I mentioned the daily.
if you want to hear how desperate they want this,
listen to the coverage from the New York Times about this bill.
This is the greatest thing of all time.
In fact, the only thing that might make it bad is that they've cut it.
It was supposed to be $6 trillion,
and the fact that they cut it to $1.5 might be the problem.
And I haven't actually cut it to 1.5 yet,
but something between 1.5 and 2 looks like the out,
the last number, which means nothing,
because all of these, all they've done is do accounting tricks
to get this to be 1.75.
million dollars. So the number is really important. You're not stopping it.
Right. Once you start it, it's done. And this is as important as the health care bill was as far as
structural change. And this one is, I think, more important because there has a lot of financial
tricks in it as far as the banks, et cetera, et cetera. You're not going back from this.
And it's shocking to me how little people know about this bill.
everybody's only talking about the number, the number.
And if that's if they are even aware of that much.
And that is the least important part of this bill.
That's the least important part.
It's important.
No, it is important.
No, it is important.
I mean, inflation.
Inflation is, I mean, we're already seeing people.
No.
Revising their, their projections.
Jack Dorsey came out and said hyperinflation.
Now, I personally think Twitter should ban Jack Dorsey.
for saying that because that's, of course, misinformation.
Misinformation.
Financial misinformation.
Well, Jack, for all of the problems with his service, is a big cryptocurrency guy, big Bitcoin guy.
And he believes in the risks of inflation.
Again, he's a quirky character like a lot of these tech guys are.
Elon Musk is the same thing.
I mean, Elon Musk is completely insane when it comes to the climate.
He's building spaceships to escape the planet.
not just for climate
also for AI
ASI multiple reasons
but again like he's a
these guys are not
uniformly good or bad typically
and Jack is very good on that he understands that
you wonder why he can't understand
some of the other things that are blatantly
obvious going on because he can have power
and he can bend it to his will

You know, I just don't see, even if the Democrats in Virginia lose all five house seats that are really up for grabs, if they lose those, the Democrats in Washington, D.C. are not going to change their plan.
They're going to keep going for it.
And I think you have to look at what has happened with the support of their agenda.
They just won the presidency, you know, and yet they lost record numbers.
I mean, that followed, was following, what, the biggest loss in, when was it?
2010, you're talking about?
10.
That was the biggest loss in about 100 years.
Yeah, since 1938.
And then this loss where they have no coattails on Joe Biden.
Now Joe Biden is cratering, just cratering.
I mean, Obama came in with a real mandate, if you want to argue that mandates exist.
He had 60 senators.
He won by a lot.
It was not a close election like it was in 2020 with Biden.
He had a major, major, you know, destruction of McCain plus, you know, 60 senators.
Yeah.
Remember, even with 60 senators, he barely got Obama through.
He needed to hold on after Scott Brown won that special election.
They had to force it through.
in the dark of night, basically, to get that thing done then.
And now they have lost 10, and they have to have everyone on board, everyone on board.
And they're having a hard time doing that.
I mean, there is a mood of the country, and they are ignoring it.
Man, we'd be so much better off if we were more like Europe, wouldn't we still?
they have they've got it down now you don't see the millions in the street that are opposing the government
or marching against this or that you don't ever see that it's just peace and harmony in in europe and
and acceptance and tolerance it's a beautiful place to go to go for a stroll yeah right with

David Harsani, senior writer of National Review, author of Euro Trash,
why America must reject the failed ideas of a dying continent.
You can find David's work at National Review.com in his new book, wherever books are sold.
Hello, David, how are you?
I'm well, thank you for having me.
You bet. It's always good to talk to you.
So tell me about the Euro Trash, because as I'm, as I'm, as I'm,
looking at Europe, I have seen Europeans say, oh my gosh, America has gone crazy. And we're becoming
so much like Europe. We are passing Europe in some ways. Are we not? I think that's fair to say
in some ways. I mean, when you look at this $3.5 trillion bill, it's a welfare state cradle of the
grave sort of European-style expansion of the state. But it's even worse because in Europe, at least they
pay for that stuff. In Denmark, a person making 60K will pay like 65% of his salary and taxes,
but can you imagine an American doing that? And Bernie doesn't want us to. It just wants to either
print more money or tax people as a paper. Hey, David, David, David, I've heard from the president.
No joke. It's the truth, man. It's all paid for. It's not going to cost a dime. Zero dollars.
Zero dollars. It's the same guy who told us that spending more money will help with
bring down inflation.
So I don't know if, I don't know if he has his economic strategy or anything else, frankly.
So why doesn't the socialist system that works in Sweden work here?
I mean, first of all, scale.
You're talking about, I think Sweden has nine million people, and it's the largest Nordic nation.
You can't scale that kind of system.
It would mean having a massive bureaucracy.
But the other question is, why would I would.
want it anyway. It's not as if they do anything better than we do. Certainly, they're not
better at assimilating new people. They're not better at health care. They're not better at any of the
things that we can quantify, and they're certainly not better at things we can't, like risk
taking and entrepreneurship. So I don't know why we'd want it, A, and B, I don't think that we could
do it even if we wanted to. So, David, are we, I mean, we are now talking about, what is it,
unrealized gains in the stock market.
For people like Elon Musk, who is like him or not, he is changing the way things are
happening in the world.
And he sees over the horizon, he sees a different future.
And now we're talking about giving him an extra tax on unrealized capital gains.
That's insane of a European mindset where.
When you think about innovation and technology, the top 30 technological tech companies in the world,
one is European, Spotify, and the rest are not.
Most of them are American.
Why do Europeans come here to start their companies?
Tons of our biggest companies are started by immigrants or children of immigrants here.
It's because of things like this, taxing people's unrealized profits would undermine the risk-taking venture
and undermines investment.
And it's exactly the sorts of things they do in Europe.
I mean, every country is a little different, but that's the mindset over there, and we're
bringing it over here.
But they're not, but they don't tax unrealized gains, do they?
I mean, I've never heard of that before.
How does that system even work?
You go, your stock goes up.
They, you pay income tax on it.
Then your stock goes down.
Do they give that money back?
What, I mean, how does that work?
No, because these are, these are, these are tricks to try to tax rich people where it is in
Europe, they just do it.
You know, if we're honest about it.
Right.
So, yeah.
Until they start driving people out.
So have you ever seen a president or really, really anyone, do what Biden did when he went over to Europe and tried to get the Europeans to agree on a baseline corporate tax.
So no one would be stealing corporations from each other.
You'd trap them in the countries.
Never, never. I just don't even understand. I mean, you know, a lot of people talk about one world government. Sometimes it's down a little bit nutty, but I have to say, when you have the United States trying to create a worldwide tax system to stop competition, which is what that does, I just can't think of any American president that's done that. That would have been something that would lose you the election immediately. I mean, I just think, I just can't, there's nothing I can even compare it to.
I think one of the worst things that we have seen in Afghanistan didn't help us on any front.
I mean, we have now lost the moral center of the United States.
I mean, and a lot of people had been convinced that, you know, America wasn't moral.
And in many ways, we haven't been for quite some time.
But we at least would go into Afghanistan and we would help.
our allies, we would help women and children, et cetera, et cetera.
We don't have that moral high ground anymore for our military.
I don't think we're trusted anymore.
And the other thing that is horrible is people used to view this country as a land of opportunity.
Now they view us as a racist state.
Still, people stream to our borders to come in because it's just not true.
And, you know, by any, again, quantifiable measure, and I go into this.
pretty deeply in the book, we are far less racist and more tolerant than any place.
In my neighborhood, for instance, I live among people who would be killing themselves in many other situations and live peaceful here to send their kids to the same schools, etc.
But it is true that people think of us that way wrongly.
Show me.
And I believe that.
Show me how we're more tolerant than Europe, because that's not what you hear ever.
Well, let's talk about immigration then.
You know, I'm legal immigration, not illegal immigration, but think about assimilation.
In Europe, there are places outside of Paris, outside of Berlin and elsewhere, where there
are basically ghettos, generational ghettos of high unemployment.
I don't mean, you know, 10 percent.
I mean 35, 40 percent.
Jeez.
That, where people don't speak the language of the country, where they don't accept the customs
and the ideals of the country, you know, people say diversity is our strength here.
That's just a trope.
I mean, what's our strength here is that we have a problem.
diverse types of people who accept the same foundational ideas about living together or they used to.
In Europe, you don't have any of that. These countries can't assimilate any group in a healthy way,
and we do it all the time when we do it right. Why is that? Why is that?
I think we're a bill for it, frankly. I mean, some of this is just structural problems. You have
Hungary. Hungary has an ethnicity. It has a culture. It goes back a long time. They have grudges that go back
a thousand years, it's not as easy for them to accept other people. It is for us. But, you know,
I'll give you one quick poll number. In France, 27% of people say they wouldn't want to live
next to someone who wasn't like them, race, religion, whatever. In America, that number is
1%. Now, maybe some people are lying, but at least they know that that's the right thing to say.
That's the credo. That's the way we live here. And Europe just isn't that way. And people go to
like the tourist spots and they think that's Europe. That's not Europe. Talk to David Arsani of National
Review. David, one of the things I think is fascinating. It's totally against the narrative that we hear
from the media is we need to be more enlightened like Europe is. And one of the big issues they
talk about is abortion. Like we, why don't we have women's rights like they do in Europe? Why don't we
have abortion that anyone can get at any time? That's what Europe is like they're ahead of us. And they
understand real women's rights? Is that actually accurate? No. Europe, one of the better things
they do better than us actually is have stricter abortion laws. But, you know, it's complicated
because I don't think there really is a pro-life movement in Europe. So they've sort of settled
on a more moderate stance organically. There are very few religious people in Europe, and that's a big
problem. So there isn't that movement, but they are, there are few things they do better.
They have less homicides, you know, in urban areas and things like that because of our gun culture, which obviously I approve of in some ways, the murder part, but the gun ownership part.
And abortion and social policy.
But some of their social policies, I mean, they do not value life in the same way.
We do.
They do not try to save.
So why do they, why are their laws more restrictive than, than ours?
Is it just from experience the genocide that has happened in Europe over and over?
Again, I wouldn't say their laws are stricter than ours in many places, not in some places,
but let's say New York, but they're not, you know, they're still very liberal.
They would be considered liberal by any stretch for us, I think.
So I just think it's because there's, they moderate, I think the pro-life movement drives the
progressive left to more extreme and extreme places, just this pushback.
Now, you know, it used to be, what was it, safe and legal, or rare safe and legal, and now it's, you know, celebrated.
So I think that that's just because of our political culture in some ways, I hope.
Is Europe as divided as we are?
I mean, I see things like, I think it was in, gosh, where was it?
Is Switzerland?
I can't remember.
But just this weekend, they had massive protests out on the street.
about vaccines and everything else.
And you're seeing these protests.
Are they as divided as we are and we're just not seeing it?
I'm actually surprised by those protests in some sense,
because in general,
I think Europeans are quite docile and pliant people.
I say that in the way that I think that their risk takers came here or left
or go elsewhere.
So I'll give you a quick example in Finland.
Like 91% of people are like doing.
And it doesn't matter what...
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What was that stat?
What was that stat you broke up?
91% of have a positive view of their government.
So you can't have that here because we are diverse and we live in different sorts of places
and we do different sorts of things and we have different cultural backgrounds.
But in Scandinavia, people are more, more clients there.
They like their government.
They don't debate in the way we do and they don't have sorts of lines of, you know,
ideological lines that they draw.
They also don't have the diversity.
We are the most diverse country in the world.
No one else is like us.
In human history.
And the scale in which we do it is immense.
And I think the European Union was formed and based on the idea of federalism in the United
States.
But of course, they've lost that.
It's just centralized, top down control now.
That's what progressives want here, right?
But it won't work.
It can't work when you have a truly diverse nation.
David, there's this thing that Bernie Sanders and the left has done forever, which is like,
oh, why don't we just have the health care of Sweden or Denmark or Finland and apply it that way?
And I think a little bit of that actually creeped into the right when it came to the COVID stuff,
which was basically they just said, well, why don't we just do all the things that Sweden is doing?
I mean, is there anything we can learn from these countries that seemingly have some things that they do correctly that we could bring here?
Yeah, I think we could have learned from Sweden that we could have.
We shouldn't shut down our economy because of the pandemic.
That would have been a smart thing.
And again, I wrote, started writing this book before COVID.
The COVID thing actually scared me quite a bit in the way that we had politicians and bureaucracies, especially bureaucracies, just unilaterally running the country.
The bureaucracies run the country.
And in Europe, bureaucracies are huge and multi-layered in ways that we can't even imagine.
And, you know, listen, Donald Trump was elected.
the bureaucracy decided they didn't want him to be president.
And they undermined him every step of the way.
The CDC decides it's going to run the country during COVID.
These are scary things because it's not a democratic process,
but it's certainly not a liberal in the good sense process.
You said that you mentioned that Europeans are compliant.
Were you surprised at the COVID reaction of the people in the United States
and how much of this people kind of just went along with?
Yeah, I think it was scary that a governor,
in Virginia could shut down the churches and people would be like, okay.
I mean, I just don't even, I don't understand how that can happen here.
And how are we, how are you feeling today?
Are you more optimistic than you were a year ago?
Yeah, I feel better.
There was that story.
It was just a microcosm of this was that Ruth Marcus, the Washington Post, was in an elevator
in Texas and she told this guy, you know, I think you should be wearing a mask, you know,
and the guy said, I don't really care what you think.
I think that's like the American credo, right?
I can't really care what you think.
And that's how we should function.
It sounds selfish, but it's not.
It's not.
That's another thing.
Europeans think we're selfish, but we give around, and you know this, of course,
seven times as much per capita as European.
Yeah.
David Hartzani, thank you so much.

why America has to, must reject the failed ideas of a dying continent.
That in of itself is sad and frightening that Europe is dying, but it is.

Here is Jen Saki on Joe Biden and gas prices.
Listen to this.
Cut five.
Would there be a price that gas would have to get that the president would say,
okay, now's the time to tap the strategic Detroit Reserve?
Well, the president reserves a range of options,
and he is certainly quite mindful of the impact of any increased cost on the American public.
There are a range of factors here, which we could delve into, but I will say that on gas prices,
one of the issues that Jake referenced, and obviously as we have more details on what this may look like,
we'll share it with all of you, is being able to raise our concern and the President's concern
about supply issues as it relates to oil.
And that's something that certainly he can do on the international stage.
and there's a power of the President of the United States engaging on that front.
We've raised, that issue has been raised at Jake's level at a range of levels throughout government,
but certainly the supply and OPEC and putting additional pressure on OPEC is something that.
Okay, stop.
Why are we having to have pressure on OPEC and why do we care what OPEC does when we have the oil ourselves?
We could be energy independent again.
We were just a few months ago.
here's a cut for a laid-off keystone worker on gas prices.
Okay, so the high cost of oil and gas, the rising prices there,
appear to have taken the Biden administration by surprised.
Are you surprised by this?
No, ma'am, I'm not surprised at all.
Because everything that Biden's touched or done, it's a failure.
It ain't nothing but a total failure.
We went from America first to America last.
and our America last
Trump had it going on
The thing about it is
We got all these high prices of oil and gas
We got drilling rig stacked
We've got roused about crews ready to go
We've got pipeline contractors
With all of their equipment
It's stacked in the yards
And I can tell you right now
We can put America to work next week
If we needed to
But they're not going to
Why?
Well, you know,

John lives in Kansas, and a few years ago, back injury made it so he was living every single day with pain.
He tried all kinds of things to make it go away or at least dull it down, but nothing worked.
Anything it did work.
made him foggy and he didn't want to live that way.
Thank goodness John listens to the radio.
Even more fortunately, he has good taste in radio shows.
He heard a certain velvet-voiced radio guy who's in the Hall of Fame talk about relief factor.
Of course, John was skeptical, but he knew he could trust this man somehow or another.
He decided to give it a try.
He ordered the three-week quick start, and the radio man turned out to be exactly right, huh?
John felt better that he had not only in years, but he felt better than he had before his injury.
That's what he said.
He got his life back, and so could you.

Hey, good news.
The world is going to Glasgow this weekend.
And our president is going with the biggest gifts he can find.
And he's going to lead the way on global climate change.
And we're going to show China just the way they should behave.
Just the way they should behave.
Beyond Lomberg, it's.
is with us. He is the author of False Alarm. I believe, aren't you in Norway right now?
Jess Glenn. Hi. How are you? Good to talk to you. I can't imagine what this is costing us now. I mean,
what is our carbon footprint on the phone call alone? Thank you so much for being on with us.
tell me what you know about what's happening in Glasgow and what Biden is bringing.
I mean, it is, I think, going to bankrupt not only the United States, but the entire West.
Yes.
So, I mean, look, the Glasgow meeting is actually called COP 26, and the trick is in some way in the name.
We've had 25 previous meetings like this, and every time we've gone to them, we've tried to promise lots of stuff and then ended up not doing most of it because it's phenomenally costly.
And so what will likely happen in Glasgow is that all the state leaders will go there, Biden included, they'll promise lots of stuff, but they actually won't deliver much of it.
And the reason is exactly as you say, because doing so is phenomenally successful.
I don't know if you saw, but the Nature magazine, one of the most reputed magazines in the world,
actually just to estimate what's the cost of Biden's net zero policy by 2050?
Their model couldn't quite model to get to zero, but it got to 5%.
So very close to there.
They found that it would cost each and every American each year by 2050, $11,300.
Oh, my gosh.
Not surprisingly, most people.
I'm not willing to pay that kind of money.
But we have a president now and an administration that I don't think they believe in global warming.
The ESG stuff, it's all scams.
But they are looking to transform our economy and beat America down in size and success.
And, you know, it's like the gas thing.
The gas prices are not going down.
They're going up by design.
They don't want us to be on fossil fuels.
fuels. Yes, so there's definitely that. So if you want to tackle global warming, you need to make
fossil fuels more expensive. Now, the theory is, and I think a lot in the administration
flies into that, that you will actually get phenomenally cheap solar and wind prices. But the problem,
as you're now seeing in Europe and elsewhere, what do you do when the wind is not blowing? What do you do
when the sun is not shining? It turns out that you're screwed, that you actually need to pay a lot of
money to get coal-fired power plants to ramp up again.
And that's why this is not the cheap green energy scenario that I think a lot of the
Biden administration was hoping for, but more likely the one where you end up paying $11,300
per person per year.
Bjorn, when Nancy Pelosi was over in England about a month or so ago, she said,
we know, I mean, this is a quote, we know that China is increasing
their persecution of the Uyghurs in concentration camps,
but we need to work with them on global warming.
Our priorities have to be global warming.
I don't think there's a chance in hell
that a country that is putting a new coal fire plant online every week
is going to get away from coal energy
and dirty energy if they can make it cheap.
Do you think Nancy Pelosi and others, A, actually believe that this is more important than concentration camps?
And B, do they actually believe China is going to follow us?
It's hard to, you know, peer into her mind.
but my sense is that a lot of people are genuinely terrified for global warming.
So you ask a lot of people, and it turns out that almost half of everyone believes
global warming is going to lead to the extinction of mankind.
And it's important to be very clear.
That's simply not what the UN climate panels also.
So the warming is the problem.
Yes, it's not the end of the world.
To take one example, the UN estimates that it could do nothing against global warming.
the negative impact will be equivalent to cutting 2.6% of our GDP by the end of the century.
Remember, by then, we'll be 450% as rich as we have today.
So we're really talking about, instead of being 450% as rich,
we will only be 434% as rich.
That's not a catastrophe.
So it's important to get this in context, but I think it's admirable in some sense
that Mr. Pelosi is so honest about this,
that if you're so worried about climate change,
that you're willing to let the Uyghurs and other problems sort of just pass by,
you really need to understand this is the problem.
It's not the end of the world.
And with China, you're absolutely right.
Of course, China is the darling in most of the developing world
because they've managed to do what most other developing world countries still haven't done.
They've actually gotten rich, mostly also coal.
and they have started to move some of their coal imports from Australia.
It seems to me that China knows exactly what they're doing, and they are helping cripple the West by playing their game.
Okay, you want to be admissions zero.
Great.
We won't buy coal from you anymore.
We'll just, we'll buy it from this.
country, you know, over here that is, that thinks like we do.
Oh, it's definitely very easy to play the West when we're saying it's so important with
global warming that we really don't care about anything else.
And remember, China, very smartly so I basically said, we'll do the same thing as you are,
we'll promise to do the same thing as you, but slightly later.
So, you know, when we actually fail, when the bills start accumulating and nobody wants
to pay, they can plausibly say,
well, we would have done it, but we're not going to do it if you don't do it.
And the reality is, of course, nobody wants to say, look at America and say,
oh, you guys pay $11,300 to go net zero.
I want to do that too.
Most countries can't even afford that.
So the reality here is you're not going to solve global warming by simply asking people
to be poor and colder.
You will solve global warming if you do what's the most American thing at all,
namely invest in innovation.
If you can innovate the price of green energy down below fossil fuels, everyone will switch,
not because they're arm twisted in Glasgow, but because it's cheaper.
I mean, I have, you know, it's taken me three different systems to finally get it in the last 15 years,
but I am now on solar panels and battery panels.
It costs me a fortune to do it.
It's not ready for regular people by any stretch of the imagination, but it can be done.
And I would highly recommend it if it were affordable, but it's not there yet.
It's just not there yet.
And on cloudy days, if I'm living in Seattle, I ain't getting that because it's not going to do much good for me.
Yeah.
And of course, what you also have to remember is that unless you didn't take any advantage,
you probably be taking a lot of subsidies, but are mostly paid by all the other rate payers.
And, of course, you use the power production system when it's cloudy.
So, you know, it's great for people who are basically getting to be virtues at low cost with other people's money.
But it's not a recipe for how we can run an advanced civilization.
It can be someday, and we should certainly be investigating that, but it's not there yet.
The one question I have also is, have you heard anyone make a good case for all of these electric cars by 2030?
Have you heard anybody make a good case on where all that power is coming from?
Yes, that's a very good question.
Nobody really knows.
But also, just most people don't want to buy electric car.
You can obviously subsidize them enormously, and then they will actually.
actually pay. Remember, I'm in Norway right now, the, the center, the epicenter of electric cars,
they probably have more than 50% of a new-sold car are electric. But that's basically because
they give you a subpoena that's almost equivalent to the entire price of the car. Now, so do you want
to buy an expensive vehicle a gasoline car or do you not want to pay anything for the other car?
You know, you actually have to be surprised that there are still other people picking the gasoline
the car. But that's, of course, if you need to get far, you can't use an electric car.
Electric cars are great for something, but they're not the panacea that they're being sold
out, and they're certainly huge costs, financial costs in the sense that you're subsidizing
for, what, $5,000 or $10,000, and they deliver fairly small COD.2 costs.
So, again, it's one of those things that are much more virtue-signalling, and a little bit of
the taste of the future. But we need much better cars, and we honestly need to realize it's going to
be part of the solution, but it's not going to be that everybody is going to be driving electric
cars. We are, we're entering a time to where I think time is running out, and it's not running
out on the planet. It's running out on this trap of global warming solutions with the
World Economic Forum and the Great Reset and all of this stuff.
Are you optimistic that these lies fall apart before we're completely screwed as a Western civilization financially or not?
Yeah, it's interesting to see exactly when they'll fall apart.
I think once the cost starts actually arriving, remember, global warming was great to politicians for the last 30 years because they basically got to say, the world is failing, but I will save you and somebody will pay in the future.
That's a great setup for a politician, but now they actually have to say, and I have to pay right now,
and that's, of course, why they get booted out of office.
I think that there's a good chance we're going to waste a lot of trillions of dollars on this,
but we're not going to be screwed in that sense.
We'll still remain out of that, remain reasonably safe and say, sure, global warming is a problem.
Let's fix it smartly.
Let's invest a lot more in research and development, so we actually get smart innovations.
but we're going to say no to $11,300, and we're going to say no way before it gets that expensive.
So it'll have been at an expensive excursion, but we're not going to emasculate ourselves, I hope.
I hope not to as well.
Beyond Lomberg, thank you so much.
Author of False Alarm and President of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, always good to have you on.
Tonight, don't forget, we have a Wednesday night special.
this is the topic. President Biden's radical climate agenda, what's already in place, what's being put in place, and what is coming soon. It is build back bankrupt, how Biden's climate agenda will finally ruin you. That's tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern on blaztv.com and BlazeTV YouTube. Don't miss it.
If you are worried about the economy, please, please listen and ask for information.
You're smart enough to figure out what's true and what's not.
You have to hand it to the Biden administration.
Go big or go home.
I mean, I think that's, I mean, that is, that was invented for these people, I think.
They are printing money like it's going out of style, and it probably is.
going out of style. And they're not spending your tax dollars at this point. They are spending
your grandchildren's tax dollars. I don't know if the ship can be righted. I don't think it can be
myself. The dollar is a thing of the past. It's only a matter of time. It is also only a matter of
time before we hit inflation that will make your eyes bleed. I hope that's when we all wake up.
but who knows. Goldline is there to help protect you against dollar collapse and against inflation.
This week, they're offering the free platinum special. This is the last week. They only have a few of them left.
Get your financial house in order now. Goldline is giving away at no cost a one-tenth-ounce platinum coin with qualifying order of graded $5 gold Indians.
They've never given platinum away because of its price and demand.
but they are this week, this week only 866 Goldline, 1-866 Goldline or Goldline.com.
A couple of things that we may have missed.
First of all, Stu is back from vacation.
I missed you Stu.
The story that you think I probably missed because you weren't here.
You have one?
Well, the World Series is going on.
You may know that.
I didn't even know that.
I didn't know that.
The reason why it will be interesting to you is not because of the baseball being played
but because the, if you remember just a few months ago,
they pulled the All-Star game out of Atlanta.
Right.
Because of all the racist voting laws that were occurring there.
A nonsensical policy that they basically have admitted they were just running from the controversy.
And they didn't believe this was a sensible move.
Correct.
So baseball has its way of being baseball and just doing things that just make life interesting.
And so the World Series matchup is Atlanta versus.
Houston.
Oh my gosh.
So now this commissioner that canceled.
Oh, there is a god.
There is a god.
Intelligent design is here.
So they've proved it basically because now this commissioner, Manfred, who is the guy who's
responsible for this, has to bounce back and forth between the two states who are most
centrally talked about in the voting rights controversy, Georgia and Texas, and then has
to give out the trophy in one of these two places where he will be mercilessly booed.
for his stance,
especially in Atlanta
where, you know, again,
obviously half the fans there
that go to these games are not conservative even.
The workers aren't necessarily conservative.
Although the Braves did at the time
call out the league and say this is ridiculous.
I mean, you're just pulling this out of our city
because we didn't pass the law even.
We agree with it or not.
It wasn't us who passed it.
The state passed it.
We just happened to be in the state.
state, they remove it, and now they have to go to a place where not only do they have to deal with a voting rights thing, but a team that has the Tomahawk chop in the audience.
This is just glorious.
Even if you don't like baseball, just to watch this guy squirm in his seat, it's worth watching.
We'll see you tonight at 9 p.m.
how Biden's climate change plans will break your budget.
Tonight, 9 o'clock, don't miss it.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
