Anything going on in the world today?
Not much.
Make note of.
Just shut it down.
Full plug.
Okay.
What you're about to hear, fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Well, this cable network is clearly over.
I think the only real news of the day that anybody needs to spend time talking on is the absence of a critical voice.
Who would have seen Don Lemon being fired yesterday?
Ha!
We have all the news that you need to know, including, yes, this morning,
the president has announced he's running for a second term.
In his own words,
so we got that coming up in just a second.
First, let me tell you about the Tunnel of the Towers Foundation.
The U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sergeant Israel Del Toro Jr.
He was serving his country in one horrific moment during his tour of Afghanistan.
His Humvee exploded, leaving him with Salern.
severe burns over 80% of the bodies. Doctors gave him only a 15% chance of survival, but he did
because he is a fighter. He actually went back in. He became the first fully disabled airman
permitted to reenlist. He was also a gold medal winner in the Invictus Games. These days,
he's just sharing his story to help others. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation made sure that he and
his family received a mortgage-free smart home.
It has tons of smart features that help him live life more independently.
Will you help the heroes like Del Toro when they need it most?
Donate $11 a month to Tunnel 2T at T2T.org.
That's T the number 2T.org.
Well, who would have seen he was terminated?
Now, CNN comes back and says, no, we didn't.
That's inaccurate.
He was offered an opportunity to meet with management but released a statement on Twitter instead.
I mean, that's not a disagreement as to whether he was terminated.
He was terminated.
The question is, how was it handled?
And honestly, given the choice between CNN public relations and Don Lemon, I believe CNN public relations.
That is how unreliable Don Lemon is.
Yeah, he's not going to find another job.
Tucker, on the other hand, that's a completely different story.
Let's go over just a few things here.
The past few weeks over at Fox News, the timeline of events, is a little telling.
First of all, back in February, Black Rock decided to invest in Fox.
Hmm.
On Tuesday, Fox settled a lawsuit for $787 million.
On Thursday, Dan Bongino announced he was leaving Fox
because they just couldn't come up with any kind of contract for him.
On Sunday, AOC went on MSNBC where she blamed Fox News
for the incitement of violence.
Later that day, 60 Minutes ran a story with Ray Epps where he said,
Tucker Carlson was, quote, trying to destroy my life.
And yesterday it was announced that he was leaving Fox News.
Now, what does that tell you?
That tells you a very clear message.
If a media outlet refuses to follow the government-approved narrative, they will be destroyed.
Real questions will not be tolerated.
this is exactly why I started Blaze TV.
I know what Tucker is going through right now.
My guess is they gave him an option.
You know, you can do the show our way or your way.
And he said, highway, please.
You want real questions asked.
The way the media is making him into some extremist,
and yet Don Lemon is just Don Lemon.
you need the dots connected, at least an attempt at some kind of explanation at what's going on in our country.
And the mainstream media is not delivering this.
They're holding no one accountable.
I don't know about you, but I am tired of the Biden crime family and Hillary Clinton and everybody else getting away with everything that they have done with zero accountability, zero scrutiny in the media.
I'm tired of the political narratives being fed through the media outlets and then spun as some sort of actual journalism.
I'm tired of it. You're tired of it. That's great. It's great. It's finally burning itself down to the ground. Don't be fooled.
This is why we have built organizations and have to build them bigger that exist.
Outside of the threats from this ever oppressive federal government,
you need to show them that you do have an alternative.
I urge you today to subscribe.
And I'm going to, you know, I'm a little biased towards the Blaze,
but daily wire, whatever it is.
But I ask you to subscribe to blazTV.com slash Glenn.
If you use the promo code, question everything for $20,
You question everything.
You'll get $20 off your subscription.
And you'll get access to my Wednesday night special this week show, kind of timely.
I'm going to show you how the government, through their experts in media,
have shut down the truth with two simple words, conspiracy theory.
It is shocking how wrong they have been over the last few years.
and all to do one thing, control the narrative.
It's Wednesday night.
Question everything.
BlazTV.com slash Glenn.
BlazTV.com slash Glenn.
And by the way, yes, if Tucker wanted to join us, yes, we would love that.
And I personally have talked to Tucker several times over the last two years.
about that. We are aligned with one another and our messages and how we view things right now,
the corruption in Washington. And I would love to have him join and support him in all that he does.
He is probably the most important voice in America today.
All right. Now, why did he leave? Well, I told him.
you the 787 million.
Dan Bonchino is out.
BlackRock, you know, up to their investing in Fox News.
But there is also Abby Grossberg.
She is a Fox News producer.
And she was filing a discrimination lawsuit against Carlson.
She was the lead booker for Carlson.
and she claims the network was setting her up to take the fall in the Dominion case.
Now, Grossman worked at the Fox facilities.
She says that she was the main booker and he had horrible things to say jokes around her that were just wrong and horrifying.
Well, maybe.
I think that might have played a role in this too.
Just, you know, the Murdox are spineless.
I mean, Rupert's not.
But his children, when it comes to Fox, they're spineless.
They don't like Fox.
They never have.
Agree?
I mean, I don't know, personally, obviously.
But the reporting was that, you know, again, what do you believe from these moments?
The reporting was that they, you know, even Rupert approved this.
This was all the way up the chain, not just the Sons.
Lachlan's the one that runs it, right?
And they wanted, they, they agree that he was going to be out.
And it'll be interesting to see how that plays out over a long period of time.
I mean, certainly the, as we know, Glenn, as we, as we know or as we allege, as some allege, how about that?
Has some allege, and there have been some that have alleged this in the past,
when something goes wrong with a Fox News host,
whether they disagree with them or they want to fire them
or they want to make them do something,
the PR department tends to allegedly leak all sorts of negative things about them to the press.
No.
Yeah, if you watch Succession, you can see the exact thing happening.
that is absolutely based allegedly on something that goes on at Fox News all the time.
Huh.
Yeah.
Really?
So you're saying allegedly their PR, like, you could be doing fine with them, but they,
you won't tow the line.
And so like, let's say you go on vacation.
Okay.
This is a good example.
Okay.
Just off the top of my head.
Right.
And then they leak to the New York Times that you've been suspended for a week.
even though it's a vacation.
Yeah, and even though you have emails proving that you ask for this exact week off months in advance.
Wow.
That's weird.
Things like that happen allegedly to people.
Really? That seems far-fetched.
Yeah, it does seem very far-fetched.
It almost seems insane.
Right?
When you have employees and shows that you should theoretically want to be successful,
that you would go behind the scenes and try to sink their credibility,
it's a very strange approach.
That's why it's only been alleged and not confirmed.
I remember about a year ago, I called Tucker and I said he was having an extraordinary bad time.
And allegedly, maybe something like that was going on.
And I said, I just wanted to call you, see how you were doing.
And he said, I've been thinking about you all week.
You're the only one that could relate to what's going on.
You know exactly how I'm doing.
I said, brother, I do.
I do. But the reason I bring that up is because there's been lots of leaks. The Abby Grossman
lawsuit is the thing that they're tying this to. And they're claiming all sorts of stuff.
Now, in previous reporting about this, the Dominion lawsuit, they talked about her recording
conversations with various people, transcribing conversations, getting stuff pulled off of old phones
and all these things.
Now, they are insinuating that this type of thing might be going on.
They have some moment, right, that is negative for Tucker in a text or in a message or
recorded conversation or something that is so bad that they just can't.
Now, of course, they don't allow Tucker to address it or say that it's not true or release
what it is so people can judge it.
It's just one of these things that's insinuated through all sorts of media reporting.
And I can tell you behind the scenes, all sorts of rumor.
passing around from people that I spoke to yesterday who, you know, are in the middle of...
Allegedly saying what?
Allegedly saying, oh, I don't know.
There could be a tape.
There could be some bad.
This is going to get really bad.
You just don't know what it is yet.
That's what's being passed around the internal workings of the media right now.
And, of course, Tucker in a position where he's not even allowed to respond to it.
This is 101.
What organizations similar, very similar to this have done in the past.
seemingly continued to do even after many changes have gone on.
And isn't it weird that, you know, they couldn't make any money with Tucker Carlson,
which as I said to, as I said to Roger Ailes, he said to me at one point,
because he was negotiating my next contract.
I told him I am not renewing.
He sent you an offer sheet.
I saw it.
They were not fired as many people.
like to say yesterday.
Yeah.
He was offering me and negotiating.
He thought I was negotiating and I don't.
I don't bluff.
I tell you what I'm going to do and I don't bluff.
He didn't understand that world.
And so as we were negotiating and, or he was going back and forth with numbers,
he at one point said to me, you know, we have a hard time selling your show.
and a lot of people have canceled and I said that's weird really huh because my sales team
at the blaze and you know for my radio we're not having a single problem definitely not
one in fact we're having great sales years so maybe it's a problem with your sales department
or that's not happening yeah and this is this is the standard
There's a standard process that goes on in these moments.
You know, organizations, you know, media matters and these types of places tell everyone that they've
successfully boycotted Tucker Carlson and he's making no money and what an embarrassment,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Then the second that someone leaves, in this case, you know, Tucker seemed to be, you know,
be thrown out other times, you know, people have just, you know, left on their own accord.
Then they claim responsibility for that person exiting.
say, we did it. And then they say, what a devastating hit this will be on Fox News because he was the
one bringing in all the money. Well, wait a minute, you just told me for five years you've
successfully boycotted him. Right. Now all of a sudden, he was bringing in so much money.
This is going to be devastating to Fox News. I will say one interesting behind the scenes thing on
this, Glenn, is the Fox is about to enter negotiations with carriers for carrier fees.
And this is the biggest moment of a cable network's life.
Every few years, they go back to, you know, direct TV and Comcast and all these places and say,
here, carriage fees, it's time.
They want to jack these things up.
To go in there and cancel your biggest host months before you're going in to negotiate your next carriage fees is a huge, huge deal.
And I don't think.
Unless your carriers are companies like Comcast.
cast that that, you know, have an ESG score to report. Maybe that's it. Maybe they wanted
him out. Maybe they went and they started these negotiations. Oh yeah. And they said, hey, we don't want
to have the risk of a Tucker Carlson being out of here. Get them out of here. That's right.
Allegedly would be a very interesting. Allegedly, that would be interesting. All right. Back in just a second,
I moved a lot through my career. My wife and I used to get so frustrated every single time because it can be a
pain in the butt. And my wife was more frustrated than I was. Not only that, if you don't have
the best real estate agent working with you, the likelihood of you ending up selling your home
for what you want to get or buying a home for what you want to pay goes way down. The good news is
there are some amazing real estate agents out there. And you just have to know where to find them.
These are the people who value hard work. They value doing the job the right way the first
time. They know all the pitfalls and the honey traps because they're the top sellers. They've seen it all
before. There are people also like you and me. A lot of them are fans of the program. And with my company,
real estate agents.I trust.com. We'll put you in touch with them. It's real estate agents.
I trust.com. The name says it all. Real estate agents. I trust.com. 10 seconds. Station.
So welcome to the program. You don't want to miss tonight's show.
I, I, this, this show we've been working on for a couple of months and I, or sorry, Wednesday show.
I'm sorry, I lost track of a day.
Uh, tomorrow night show at 9 p.m.
Uh, we've been working on it for many, many, many weeks.
Uh, and it started with just this frustration with me saying, another conspiracy theory, huh?
This one is, this one's a conspiracy theory too.
How many times have they said this is a conspiracy theory only for it turn out to turn out to be true?
This is the way they buy time.
This is the way they get their zombies just to parrot.
Oh, you're not about a conspiracy.
Because they hear that.
And then they don't tie it back to, wait a minute.
Ha, somebody was lying to me when they said that.
They don't have that moment because it's their side, I guess.
So tomorrow night at 9 p.m.
We are going to question with boldness, and I'm going to show you the record and help you piece things together.
That's tomorrow night.
It is Tuesday.
It is Tuesday.
I just have to keep saying that because when I get to Thursday, and I think it's Friday, I'm going to be pissed.
Wednesday night special tomorrow night at 9 p.m.
Now, could we play Joe Biden's Exhibit?
exciting announcement.
Now, he announced overnight, which is the time you do it.
Oh, yeah.
You know, you just unload that big announcement.
Like 2, 3 a.m. prime time.
I'm going to give you a little taste of it.
I'm not going to give you all of it because it's so exciting.
It's so exciting.
I've got to play it in clip.
Got to play it in clip.
Here is the announcement released while you were sleeping.
January 6th footage here to start it off.
Freedom.
Personal freedom is fundamental to who are as American.
Oh, shut up!
That's been the work of my first term.
To fight for our democracy.
What are you talking about?
To protect our rights, to make sure that everyone in this country is treated equally,
and that everyone is given a fair shot at making it.
Wait.
But you know, around the country, Magick extremists are wide enough to take on the bedrock freedoms.
Cutting Social Security.
Cutting social security, all they do is run ads about how they won't cut social security.
All of the Republican ads are ads about how Donald Trump runs them all the time.
I mean, they are boilerplate Democratic ads from 15 years ago.
We won't cut Social Security.
They will, but we won't.
If anything, and I will point out, is there anything this president despises more?
more than personal freedom.
I mean, this is gaslighting at its most...
Okay, the English language, yes.
But other than that, there's nothing he despises more than personal freedom.
Well, he does think that your child doesn't belong to you.
Exactly.
Exactly my point.
Republicans want to cancel Social Security.
No, wait, I don't.
That's what I'm hearing from you.
I want them to cancel more.
The Glenn Back Program.
I'm a simple man.
Most of the time I don't require a lot out of the companies I do business with.
You know, save money when I can.
Don't take my money and, you know, work against me, try to enslave my family.
That's kind of a big one.
It doesn't seem too hard.
Unfortunately, for the big mobile companies, I guess it is because that's exactly what they're doing.
So it is time to move on.
Patriot Mobile, America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
Yes, it can be done.
They offer dependable nationwide coverage on all three major networks.
So you get the best possible service in your area,
but you're not simultaneously helping them fund woke propaganda
by spending your money on those big mobile companies.
When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you choose to support free speech
and religious freedom, the sanctity of life,
the Second Amendment, military veterans, first responder heroes,
and saving money on a great product.
switch your mobile service right now.

Oh, welcome.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Author.
We're glad you're here.
Thank you so much for listening.
We were just, we're joined by Pat.
Great.
Hi, Pat.
Pat.
Hi.
How are you?
Oh, man.
Yeah.
Glad you're here.
Big day, huh?
Yeah.
I'm giddy today.
Are you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Me too.
Me too.
Me too.
I learned from the Atlantic, his replacement is going to be worse.
Well, look what happened when they replaced Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck after they were both forced out.
Yeah.
Fired.
Fired.
Fired.
Dragged in the streets.
Bloody.
Anybody else getting a little sick and tired of seeing that lie repeated even a decade later?
Yeah.
It really is.
I can't take it.
Anyway, so glad they got that extremist out.
But another extremist is coming.
You know it to be true.
One that's worse.
It's got to be worse.
Just like if someone else wins the nomination, that person will be worse than Trump.
Yes.
No matter who it is.
No, they've already said that.
Desanthus is worse.
Especially if it's DeSantis, he's worse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But like you're telling you, if Nikki Haley wins this.
She's worse.
She's worse.
She's worse.
She's worse.
And he's worse in Hitler.
Yep.
I don't know where you go from Hitler.
I mean, Genghis Khan was pretty bad, me.
Well, you go to Trump.
They've already said Trump is worse than Hitler.
So now this person will be worse than Trump.
Who's worse than Trump then?
Wow, that's weird.
It will be said until the person wins.
No one is worse than Trump.
All right.
So anyway.
Really?
Yeah, no one.
No one.
Not Mao.
Not Pol Pot.
No.
Killed what two thirds of his country.
Eidiamine?
Eidiamine.
No.
No.
Nope.
Wow.
Gangiscon.
No.
Gengiscon?
No.
I mean, you talk about being in a fashion reminiscent of Jengeson.
just you're talking Donald Trump.
Wow, that is weird.
Okay, so the president did what all, anyone who is running for office, public office,
you know, you could go the old-fashioned way of having a big rally and make a big announcement
and have people, you know, screaming behind you and it's like, oh, and you know, hoopla.
He went, I think, the much smarter way.
He just made a commercial and released it in the middle of the night.
Yeah, sure, counterintuitive a little bit, but that's what makes this guy genius.
Really?
That's one of the many things.
Many things that makes him genius.
So now let's continue on with his announcement that was released in the middle of the night.
Here it is.
Books and telling people who they can love, all I'm making it more difficult for you to be able to vote.
Yeah, that's what the Republicans are doing.
It's what they're doing.
There he is with Kamala.
Two of the most popular people on the planet.
They're hugging people,
sniffing.
When I ran for president four years ago,
I said we're in a battle for the soul of America.
Yes.
And we still are.
I haven't killed yet.
The question we're facing is whether in the years ahead,
we have more freedom or less freedom.
That is the, more rights or fewer.
I know what I want the answer to be,
and I think you do too.
You want less.
This is not a time to be complacent.
That's why I'm running for re-election.
Because I know America.
Oh, he does.
He does.
He knows it.
He's working.
We know we're good and decent people.
Lunch back.
I know we're still a country that believes in honesty and respect of treating each other with dignity.
That we're a nation where we give hate no safe harbor.
We believe that everyone is equal, that everyone should be given a fair shot.
We do.
Even white people.
Every generation of America is that faced a moment when they have to defend democracy.
Stand up for our personal freedom.
stand up for the right to vote in our civil rights.
And this is our moment.
It was running.
That's so great.
I have energy, I swear.
This is great.
We've got to call a lid at 9 a.m. every day, but I have energy to run three or four steps.
No, it was 903 last week one day.
9.03.
He didn't all the way to 9.03?
He did.
Well, that's a hard work day.
It is.
He was probably working on this in the middle of the night.
Probably.
Okay, so that's that's the special special ad.
Now, let me just correct me if I'm wrong.
I think we're all clear on the Biden strategy.
Here it is.
Yesterday you read he's not giving any press conferences.
The fewest press conferences of any president.
Okay.
Fewest press conferences.
So he's not out there.
He's putting a lid on things.
As Pat said, at 9 o'clock in the morning,
I said 903.
I was only going to give him 9 o'clock.
But Pat gave him 903, which is the accurate time.
I wanted to be accurate.
Okay, yeah.
So here's the strategy, I think.
Silence everyone who is against you.
Make sure there's no one that can say anything against you.
Then no press conferences, no rallies.
Stay in your basement.
Silence your own voice so you can't screw it up.
and hope Donald Trump wins the nomination and then you're done.
Worked for him last time.
Yeah.
I think that is the same thing that he did last time.
That's the strategy.
And the silencing thing is really a huge part of it where it's not just silencing, you know,
people like Tucker Carlson or opponents on social media, taking AM radios out of cars.
Yes.
They're trying to do that.
By the way, you should Congress is, do you have the, the.
the text.
You should let Congress know you've got to put AM radios in cars.
This is the way to silence talk show.
Well, think about this.
How long have we talked about this?
What would our country be without Fox News Channel and Talk Radio?
Those two things are under direct attack right now.
Yeah.
Right?
Fox News seems to be changing into something else that is not Fox News.
Yep.
And they are literally talking about seriously taking,
taking AM cars radios out of new cars.
If you want to get involved
to this, by the way, you can text AM to 5286
until Congress we need AM radio in cars.
We do desperately.
Again, it's text AM to 5286.
It's worth your time to do that.
Yeah, they've got a period here of a chance
to keep AM radio in cars.
This is extraordinarily important,
especially this is the way
they've been wanting to get rid of
talk radio. They've been wanting to get rid of it
since the 1980s. They finally
have an opportunity that doesn't
look like it's political. It absolutely
is political. Period.
It's political. The AM radio
interferes with the
electric
circuitry of the
EV vehicle. Yeah.
And that could shut down your
car it's a lot like if you have your cell phone on how many times have you crashed in a plane when
your cell phone's been on? Oh man I forgot to turn mine off one time and you didn't turn it off or put in an
airplane plane crash. Yeah over and over and over and over you see it. Same thing will happen
with AM radios and EVs. Oh, gosh darn. They don't want to. They just have to for our own safety.
Wow. Okay. Yeah. So that's. So we got that going for us. We should also know part of the silencing strategy is
silencing his opponents in the Democratic primary. None of them are going to get debates. I mean, again, Marion Williams.
He's already said, hasn't he? They're not doing debates. They're not going to do debates. I mean,
maybe if Gavin Newsom or somebody who is more of a threat came in, they would do a debate. Who knows?
But likely you will get no debates. And you will get very few words from the actual president. He will do very, very little and try to avoid the spotlight.
Right? Because every time he talks, he's a literal embarrassment to all of the country.
So this is the strategy.
Hide in your basement and hope.
And the reason, again, Donald Trump, who, by the way, they had the same strategy in 2016, didn't work out all that well for them.
But the idea is everyone's made up their mind on Donald Trump.
And there's a good chunk of the country that doesn't like him, as we all know.
And the media will be there to reinforce every one of those themes.
and they will go down this road with a built-in 47% voting for them just out of default,
and all they have to do is pick off a few people.
They have to have violence from the right.
They have to have it.
It's the only thing, because things will get so bad in the next 18 months.
I really believe we are just an event away, just an event away from,
collapse.
And they're not going to introduce this currency right away.
They're just going to let inflation just eat us alive.
I was talking to Tim Kennedy yesterday, did a podcast.
It'll be out on Thursday.
And Tim and I were talking, and he said, this inflation, nobody knows.
He said in a year from now, you know, when your eggs are nine bucks, it's going to be a problem.
and he he's watching what's going on.
He's seeing that the dollar is losing its value overnight.
It's losing value.
Already the price is what, tripled?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, it's out of control.
Out of control already.
And England is going through this.
You know, just the regular British breakfast, which I think has blood pudding in it.
So, I mean, you know, you can pass on that one.
But I just read an article today.
The average English breakfast is off the charts.
I mean, if you look at the price of just breakfast over in England, it's almost a straight line up.
That just ravages a country.
Yeah.
And unless they have riots in the streets, that's all anybody's going to be talking about.
Well, and the gas prices are skyrocketing again, too.
and nobody's really talking about that very much.
So what is the possible plan?
And also, may I just say, when he says there's no such thing as someone else's child, as he did yesterday, I think that's a problem.
Let me play this.
I could put a teacher's creed into words when she said, there's no such thing as someone else's child.
No such thing as someone else's child.
Our nation's children are all our children.
No, no, that's not true.
That's not true.
That's the opposite of true, though.
Yes, it is.
So it has true in a sentence, sort of to the truth.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
Yeah, sure.
Not true.
Not true at all.
And if, you know, if you look at where we've been and the things we called crazy back then,
in fact, this was said before, this happened to be said in 2013.
and America went wild when it was a talk show host on MSNBC.
Listen.
We have never invested as much in public education as we should have because we've always had kind of a private notion of children.
Your kid is yours and totally your responsibility.
We haven't had a very collective notion of these are our children.
So part of it is we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families and recognize that kids belong to whole communities.
Once it's everybody's responsibility and not just the households, then we start making better investments.
That is exactly what the president means when he says, you know, it's our collective children.
That's exactly what he mean.
Now, when he said it, have we moved so far since 2013 that we no longer care about that statement?
That's the way it happens.
But this is, of course, why the strategy is to keep him in his basement and not for him.
to speak because he says things like this.
This is reminiscent of what's his face, reminiscent of Jen Gis Khan
and also reminiscent of the guy in Virginia, McColliffe,
who ran and got on stage and said,
hey, actually, you shouldn't have any input
at how your kids are taught.
That's the thing you're not supposed to say, right?
He keeps saying the things you're not supposed to say.
You're supposed to do those things as a good progressive.
You're not supposed to admit them in public.
All right, our sponsor this half hour,
by the way, thank you, Pat.
You can hear the Pat Gray Radio Extravaganza,
along with his orchestra every day before this program on plays.
Now a full orchestra.
Full orchestra.
No, it's a symphony orchestra.
I mean, all the pieces.
He's got two heart players.
Two heart players.
Anyway.
This is the sort of budget we have here at Blaze TV Tucker.
Just so you know, Pat Gray's got two heart players.
You want three.
Making some decisions.
We'll make it happen.
You want three heart.
You want a symphony and seven heart players.
We'll do it.
I mean it, man.
Anyway, American financing.
the banks are a little concerning.
There's some uncertainties going on
and those things affect inflation, your debt,
how to pay bills, how to get a loan on anything.
Yeah, one of the banks, the big ones that was rumored to have problems,
only lost $100 billion in deposits.
But that's it.
Which I don't think was, it's not a big deal, right?
No, no, no. The Fed's got that.
They'll just print more.
American financing is a family-owned mortgage company that's in it for you, and they're saving people like you, now an average of $1,000 a month.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. I don't know if you know much about covenant making,
but covenant with God is a very, very serious thing. Usually God,
fact, I don't think of any time ever that God has broken the covenant. It's always us that
breaks the covenant. And there are serious ramifications for that. We are a Judeo-Christian land. We just are.
I'm going to be in Jamestown, Virginia tomorrow, or Virginia Beach. I'm going to be at the
keynote speaker for the first landing 1607 projects, Rededication of American Back to God.
It was 1607 marked yesterday, or tomorrow, that they made a covenant with God to dedicate the land ourselves to the gospel of Jesus Christ and to raise up godly generations after us.
We need to rededicate.
I'll be in Virginia tomorrow.
You can find out more front page, glenbeck.com.
I'll see you tomorrow if you're anywhere near.
I'd love to see it tomorrow there at the rededication of America and rededication of our covenant,
our first covenant from 1607.
The Glenn Beck back program.
Got a great hour coming up.
Bill O'Reilly, Megan Kelly, it's going to be a lot on the Tucker Carlson situation.
Real insight you're not going to get anywhere else.
Horm's titles are online now.
And once a criminal access is and forges your signature, it's a race against time to stop him before he takes out loans against your home or, you know,
worse sells it from underneath you.
So when's the last time you checked your home's title?
I'm guessing your answer is like never or maybe when you bought the house.
That's not going to help.
Home title lock can walk you through this process and protect you.
They actually sort of scared me to death one day when they sent me an email that just
said from an email address I was not familiar with.
It just said, hey, here's your home's title.
And it's been signed and you sold your house.
And I was like, oh my gosh.
And then they realized that it was home title lock telling me,
hey, this is how they do it.
And they demonstrated this to me.
This has happened to thousands of people across the country.
You can protect yourself from it, though, if you go with HomeTidalock.

Mr. Bill O'Reilly, how are you, sir?
Hey, how you doing, Beck?
Good. You know, I was talking to you, and I couldn't remember if you said this on the air or if you told me this off the air, but this is kind of what you said would happen.
if they settled or lost the Dominion case, you said you thought there would be a lot of house
cleaning at Fox just because of the monetary damage.
Do you think that's what happened to Tucker Carlson?
No.
So, you know, it's a shame that we live in a country where the reporting is so lazy, sloppy,
and dishonest because of agenda.
That's number one.
And, you know, I appreciate you have me on the program.
I appreciate your listeners actually trying to figure out what's going on because it's important.
You know, the Fox News Channel led to Donald Trump being elected president.
That's a pretty strong historical situation.
Donald Trump would not have been president, if not for the Fox News channel.
So now that's gone.
I mean, Trump doesn't have that. He doesn't have that advantage in this upcoming election.
So that's the big story here other than the personalities.
Now, shoot me the questions you want to know about what happened, and I will tell you what I know, which is most of it.
Okay, so then tell me the story. What happened?
The company itself is in turmoil, not.
Because of the Dominion settlement, they can well afford the $800 million because of people like you and me, which made them countless dollars in the past.
So they got a $4 million war chest.
It was the future lawsuits that led to Mr. Carlson's demise.
And he didn't even know it, by the way.
He had no clue.
So yesterday at this time, 24 hours ago, the Tucker Carlson producers were in their morning meetings.
the lineup for Monday night.
So all those bull about, they made the decision on Thursday, last Thursday, Friday, it's all a bunch of crap.
Okay?
And I don't know.
They might have made that decision.
No, they didn't back.
Wow.
There's only one guy who could make that decision.
Yeah, Rupert.
That's it.
Yeah.
Nobody else had anything to do with this decision other than to tell him.
Agree.
Yeah.
You should get rid of Carson.
And Carlson didn't have a lot of allies because nobody does.
there's no Tammy Wynette in television news standing by your man.
No.
Okay?
No loyalty.
If the seas get choppy, you drown.
And they'll help you drown.
They'll throw you overboard.
So, anyway, the reason that Rupert Murdoch made the decision was because his lawyers,
Fox News lawyers are saying,
we got a lawsuit by this producer who came in and taped everything.
So what does that tell you?
Tells you she came in with a, you know, perhaps a plan, all right?
Not unusual in these days.
I'll tell you what.
It's unbelievable what's happening in corporate America.
But they have a lawsuit already filed in New York City.
apparently they have tapes that the lawyer for the woman says, you know, he might put them out there.
And those tapes do not make the Carlson broadcast look good.
Number one.
Number two, 60 minutes Sunday night.
Who's there?
Ray Epps.
Hey, Ray, looking into the camera going to go, hey, Tucker Carlson rule my life to wrap my family.
It's a lawsuit.
What do you think is going to happen now, Beck?
Lawsuit.
You bet.
You bet.
Big one.
then you have Smartmatic, you've already gone over that, the other voting machine company,
which really isn't that big a concern because they only had one county, L.A. County,
that they did business with in the last election.
So they'll get paid off, and it's not a big deal.
But then they have the shareholders of people that bought Fox News stock, that company's stock,
and they're getting hammered, and they're going to sue people inside,
Fox News, that means board members, that means the Murdox, that means all of those people for fraud.
And that's going to be massive.
It's interesting to me that Black Rock just increased by, I think, 14% their holdings of News Corp,
but they did it back in February.
Yeah, I don't know if that's a good play now.
I'm not sure.
and so all of this is kept from the American public.
They don't understand the political implication,
which this hurts the Trump campaign, big time.
All right?
And the business equation that was made,
and that caused the removal of Tucker Cross.
And it was, as they say in the Godfather,
it's business, not personal, Sonny.
Okay?
So, Bill, how is this hurting?
the Trump campaign just because you think that this will really hurt Fox in ratings?
No, because in 16, and I was there, I did the first interview with Trump after he announced he was running for president, in 16, the Fox News channel was very favorable to Donald Trump.
And the ratings skyrocketed.
And he had access to almost every program to say, what he wanted.
gave him the hardest time.
But basically, the whole operation was pro-Trump and anti-Hillary.
Now, the operation doesn't want Trump to be president, all right?
And their viewership already on the decline, and pretty seriously in the 25-to-54 range,
as we discussed last time I was on a program.
Yeah.
It's going to be a free fall, an absolute free fall.
They don't have anybody to put in at 8 o'clock.
So that's the most key slot.
There isn't one program on Fox News channel that's growing in the ratings.
Not one.
They have no bench.
And most importantly, everyone who works there is frightened.
So you do the math, Beck.
What do you think of, I've heard a lot of people.
people are canceling Fox Nation because he was a big part of that,
uh,
did documentaries,
etc,
et cetera.
How do you think they're online is going to do?
Because all I can tell you is that last night,
Bill O'Reilly.com picked up 400 new premium members.
Yeah.
Yeah,
we're seeing,
uh,
an increase as well.
I think people are canceling Fox Nation and,
and,
uh,
and canceling Fox.
I,
I think there's going to be.
real turmoil. What do you think Tucker does?
He's going to make a fortune.
Do you think he has a non-compete in play?
Well, it doesn't even matter. Nobody's going to hire him in the corporate media.
No, I know that.
He's got nowhere to go there.
His non-compete would include anything electronic.
You can't do electronic?
No. You absolutely can't do it.
All you can do is direct competitor non-competes.
So what he'll do is form his own agency like you have with the Blaze and I have with
Bill O'Reilly.com.
He'll do a Rogan-esque podcast.
And he'll make a bloody fortune.
Yeah, he will. He will.
Do you think he'll have the same impact that he had at Fox?
Well, look, this is what people don't understand again.
the impact that television news has is maybe 60% less than it was.
Yes.
When I left six years ago, it's ironic.
It's almost to the week, six years that I left.
Because the balkanization of the news, driven by social media and the availability that people can
watch whenever they want on their devices, has lessened the impact that the cables and the
network news used to have.
So, yeah, he's not going to be seen on a channel every night.
But I could argue that in my operation, since I left Fox News, I've had four number one
bestselling books, tens of millions of dollars in revenue for my television operation.
I've got 300 radio stations carrying my daily commentary.
So you tell me.
Yeah, I will tell you that our footprint now is bigger than it was when we were at Fox.
And we're having our best year ever right now.
And it's just different because people are, there is no one gathering place.
And that's the thing with cable news, the way.
it was before, there was one gathering place, and you would see those on in bars and everything
else. There isn't that now. And that's the only... But nobody's paying attention to it because
it's boring. Look, the reason that you succeed is that you're not boring, Beck, it's not
because of your good looks. That's ridiculous. Yeah, I don't know that. Okay. But you put on a
program that people tune in to listen to on the radio because they don't know what you're
going to say.
You don't know where you're going to go.
Carlson had that same appeal.
So many most television news presentations, you turn on the show, you know exactly what
you're going to get because you get it every night.
But Carlson, his talent was that he would come after situations in a different way.
Now, if I had produced his program, I would have required more discipline and not, because he got himself into trouble on a number of occasions when he didn't have to.
Okay, you just had to do a little bit more reporting and back up stuff a little bit more.
But that's just not important.
He alienated the corporate media.
They got them just like they got me.
I don't know about your circumstance, but surely over the years,
you've had a lot of pain brought to you.
Oh, yeah.
And that's the bottom line on it.
Again, these media corporations, whether it's Fox or CBS, NBC,
they have no loyalty to anyone but the bank teller.
Okay?
Yeah.
That's it.
No matter how loyal you are, no matter how much money you made them,
no matter what the circumstances, if they feel your reliability, it's avalanche time for you.
All right, Bill, hold on one second.
I want to go to Joe Biden.
He made the announcement last night in the middle of the night that he's running for president,
which is bizarre.
We'll get to that in just a second.
And Megan Kelly joins us in just a couple of minutes.
Stand by.
Relief Factor is our sponsor, and it's finally the end of the day.
No more cares, no more worries.
nothing left for you to do.
Everybody is in bed.
Lights have finally gone out.
And there you are lying in bed, staring up at the ceiling fan, going, I've got to get some sleep.
I've got to sleep.
And you're staring there.
And you're exhausted, but you're wide awake.
May I suggest healthy sleep?
It is an all-natural product called Relief Factor Sleep.

It's much better than melatonin, at least it is for me.
It works.
You go to sleep.
You wake up the next morning.
You don't feel anything in your body, even after you've taken it.
You don't feel anything except refreshed and rejuvenated the next morning.
So if you're having trouble sleeping, just try this.
Unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800 the number four relief.

10 seconds, station ID.
So last night in the middle of the night,
Biden released his first ad, I guess,
the announcement that he is running in 2024.
I think his campaign strategy is a lot like it was in 2020.
Just silence anybody who is against you.
Silence yourself.
Stay in the basement.
and just hope that Donald Trump is the candidate against you
and that you can beat him by all kinds of lies,
even with, you know, energy prices going up by 23%
food going up by 18%.
Bill, your thoughts.
I like that he was in his jammies,
and he had the little bears on them
when he made feet in the jammie bottoms.
When he made his announcement.
Yeah.
Look, the Democratic Party has no one else.
That's the big thing here.
They have no one else to run against either Trump or DeSantis.
So he has to run, even though I don't think he's going to run because his impairment is now accelerating.
That's why Susan Rice left the White House, by the way, his top domestic advisor.
she knows that he is not going to be able to carry on.
And you don't think she's going to be running the election or working for his election,
re-election?
I don't know what her role is going to be, but she's not going to be in the White House every day,
and she was the one calling his shots.
Correct.
Okay.
So the calculation is that Americans hate Donald Trump so much that they'll vote against him
and they'll look away from who they're voting for by that anti-Trump vote.
That's the calculation.
If I were a Democratic Puba, I might make the same calculation
because they can't put up Gavin Newsom in California.
It's a disaster.
Kamala Harris, ridiculous.
And so their best shot may be a guy who you will never see on the campaign trail.
He's obviously.
He gives speeches.
We can barely get the words out of his mouth now, even with the teleprompter from.
Just can't say the words.
So you won't see them much, and they'll hope that Trump gets the nomination and that the anti-Trump forces put Joe back in the White House.
That is the calculation.
So do you agree with that?
I mean, how?
Hard to say.
There's no doubt that Trump hurt the Republican Party in the midterms.
no doubt.
There should have been a landslide for the GOP because of Biden's incompetence and
inflation and the economy and all of that.
GOP should have won 50 seats in the House, not five.
And the anti-Trump sentiment drives people to vote who ordinarily would not vote.
It's almost 90% now.
African Americans hate Trump.
And that's what the Democratic Party is counting on, those block votes.
Now, Hispanics, not so much.
All right, they're suffering because of inflation.
Hispanics.
Everybody is, but Hispanic Americans are working people primarily, and they're suffering.
So Trump may be able to cleave that out for him.
Trump will win the white men vote by an overwhelming margin.
Women don't like Trump.
So it's very difficult to say, but I can say with certainty that in the next eight months,
things are going to get a lot worse in America.
And that will help Trump.
I agree.
I mean, that's the one thing.
I mean, I think Biden hopes that there is some sort of violence on the right to distract from everything else.
but I also think the economy and everything else is going to go really poorly in the next eight to 10 months, 12 months.
And when that does, it's going to be hard for somebody to look at Joe Biden.
And you'll start to look, I think, again, at somebody like Donald Trump as a guy who's fixed the economy before.
If Trump ran on his record, he would be much stronger than picking fights with everybody every second of the day.
and, you know, I've talked to him on occasion, and I've said that to him, but with me, he's rational.
Back you saw the show that I did with him, the history show in Florida.
He's rational with me when we talk.
He's totally rational.
But that doesn't change.
You're the only one irrational in that.
But that doesn't change his mind.
All right.
Bill, thank you so much.
Yeah, thanks for having me on.

Rough grains.
Rachel wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough grains.
By the way, did I tell you Megan Kelly's coming up in about three minutes?
my 10-year-old golden doodle, she wrote, Maverick, loves rough greens.
I started using it a month ago with a free sample when I heard an ad on your show.
I really didn't know if he would eat it.
He's usually such a picky eater, but I followed the instructions and he loves it.
Now his coat is shinier, and he has much more pep in his step.
Thank you so much.
Rachel, thanks for writing in.
This is credit goes to naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
He invented the solution.
It's Rough Greens.
I feed it to my dog now because I've seen the benefits over time.
However, I started feeding with the only thing I really wanted was,
please give him something that he will eat his food with.
And this is not a dog food.
This is just something you put on top.
I don't know.
It's like really bad French fries,
but you put ketchup on it and the dogs love it.

Welcome to the one and only, Megan Kelly.
From the Megan Kelly show, she does on XM Serious,
right after this program on the Triumph Channel, 11.
She also has her YouTube channel that you can watch her show every day, the Megan Kelly show on YouTube.
Welcome.
Megan, how are you?
Hi there.
I'm great.
How you doing?
Good.
So I just talked to Bill O'Reilly, and his take on Tucker Carlson was that this is because of the threats of lawsuits.
For instance, Ray Epps was on 60 Minutes on Sunday.
Sunday. It's not only just to destroy voices, but this gravely hurts the Trump campaign as well.
What is your opinion on what happened with Tucker Carlson?
Well, Bill and I have had our disagreements, but he's brilliant. However, this is another disagreement.
I don't think that Fox would be scared by that Ray Epps lawsuit at all.
And I also think all the reporting that they got scared by this Abby Grossberg's lawsuit,
a disgruntled, fired former low-level producer for Tucker and at one point, Maria, scared them even a little.
She's got tapes, okay, what does she have tapes of, people on his staff saying things?
Tucker was never in the office.
Tucker works from his home, either in Maine or down in Florida.
He's, I guarantee you, Tucker's never had more than one conversation with Abby Grisberg.
So she's not going to have Tucker Carlson on tape.
And even if she did, Glenn, Fox does not fire people over random nasty comments to a low-level producer.
It's certainly not their number one star.
That doesn't make sense.
Now, Tucker's very controversial.
Tucker's in the news every week for yet another thing.
it is possible Rupert reached the end of his tether for Tucker.
And there are reports that there may be some emails in connection with the Dominion
lawsuit that we haven't seen that Tucker, that they have in which Tucker lambasts people like Rupert.
I also find it hard to believe that would lead him to fire Tucker because
Rupert's been around the block.
He's a tough guy.
He doesn't offend easily.
Correct.
But it is true that if they think you're getting too big for your britches over there,
Oh, yeah.
They're not shy about sending you a message.
So at the end of the day, do you think that's it?
I mean...
I don't know.
I don't know.
It's weird.
Look, they do have to worry about shareholder lawsuits, which are coming in now in the wake of Dominion.
You know, and it's not entirely Rupert's shop anymore.
You know, he does have a bored.
He has to answer to.
I also think that if they have any desire to sell Fox News,
and there's been rumblings about that, especially once Rupert is gone,
Um, they're going to want it to be, quote, more mainstream and getting rid of Tucker,
would be a good step, getting rid of Dan Bungino would be another step.
Maria Bartaromo might be another one, though I'm told Rupert absolutely loves her.
So it's probably not an accident.
She didn't go, even though they just paid out $800 million in connection with some of the things she said.
So I don't know.
Uh, but that makes sense to me, but I'm told by people who are in a position to know,
no sale pending, no seller came the tires at the moment.
Now, there is something else going on.
They're going into negotiation for their cable news contracts.
I think that might play a role.
You know, that always comes up, but it takes a lot for these cable providers to tell somebody like Fox,
we're not going to carry you because of the controversial man at 8.
I mean, you saw, like, when that happened to OAN, it was a big deal.
And that was because the whole channel is controversial.
But one guy, I just don't believe it.
Tucker's too much of a draw with the audience.
And it would have to be a uniform position by, you know, direct TV and Time Warner Cable and all of these people, which it wouldn't be.
Fox is too much of a moneymaker for the cable providers, too.
I don't know what happened, but I do believe there's no way it happened without personal sign-off by Rupert.
So you left at the height of your career to go to NBC.
I left arguably at the height to start the blaze, which was crazy insane.
Tucker is gone now, but I don't think he's going to get a mainstream.
cable network or show, and I don't think he would want it.
But now there's endless opportunities for him to make gobs of money if that's what he's
looking to do and to have a real impact, just not with any corporation, right?
Yes.
He'll be financially even better off once he goes on his own.
I mean, I have no doubt of that.
he, if he's smart, Tucker will do a subscription show where he never has to worry about
advertiser boycotts again. You know, you always have to worry about lawsuits. You have to say
factual, but there's insurance for that and so on. But I think he'd probably do a subscription service.
And if he goes directly from Fox, he'll be well positioned to just crush it. I don't think he'll
wind up signing up with a larger media ecosystem, whether it's the Blaze or the Daily Wire or I just think
he's going to, if he does it, he'll do it on his own. I'm just knowing Tucker. But look, there are
certain tradeoffs, you know, having, you and I are in the unique position of having worked,
you know, at the very, very top of this cable company and then gone off on our own. For sure,
your influence wanes in some ways, you know. I mean, I don't know that Tucker's going to have
Ron DeSantis personally crafting his Ukraine policy to please Tucker if he's hosting a
digital show. Right, right.
You know, there's something about the Fox powerhouse that makes a lot of these politicians
bend the knee and Tucker in particular in that role. However, it's also the case that,
you know, who's more influential? Ben Shapiro or Wolf Blitzer?
Right.
Like, we should go down the list. There are your voice, Ben Shapiro's like Joe Rogan.
A lot of these voices in the digital space are much more relevant than,
95% of the cable news anchors.
So Tucker will have a bit of an influence drop in that way,
but he will no longer have to do Fox's bidding.
He will be able to cover whatever story he wants and whatever way he wants,
and believe me, though the outside world might not know it.
There were constraints put on him by Fox News,
and there were things that he wanted to say that he couldn't,
because you're not allowed to shoot inside the tent.
He can be free now to just say whatever he wants
as soon as he gets out of his non-compete.
I will tell you that while it doesn't seem like your influence is as big, something has happened to me on influence in the last six months.
I was at a store before Easter, a grocery store.
And my wife said, oh, we forgot this.
Can you go back and get it?
I had to come back to the checkout counter.
And I said, I couldn't get it.
I was stopped too many times.
And my kids have said, Dad, what's going on with you?
because I am I'm being stopped so much now.
Thank God in a positive way because I live in Texas.
But you just don't recognize the influence because it's not in one place.
Does that make sense?
Yes, well, I'll tell you the other thing.
Ben Shapiro said this to me when I was trying to decide what my next move would be after NBC.
And he said, you know, which is true.
cable news is a dinosaur, it's dying, and only very, very old people are watching it.
And he said, if somebody stops me on the street who's over the age of 50 and says, oh, I love your work,
I always know they know me from Fox News. And anybody under that age, I know they know me from my podcast.
Yes.
And I think that's true. I mean, the digital space is for tomorrow. It's much more forward-looking.
Cable News has still got, you know, some loyal viewers for sure, but not to sound like I'm 200,
but the kids today are watching digital shows, YouTube, and podcasts.
That's how they get their news.
They don't sit in front of the television 8 o'clock at night anymore.
That's why the advertising demo is dropping precipitously for all of these anchors.
And so I do think for our ecosphere, where you and I now are, it's great that Tucker's leaving Fox,
because he'll be another powerful voice, probably, in our space.
and it's one less reason to tune into this stilted, let's face it, boring, predetermined way of programming the news
that has to please Paul Ryan and Rupert Murdoch and Suzanne Scott.
Why don't we have to please them?
Why can't we just deliver the news the way we want?
Well, you and I now can, and Tucker's about to be there too.
Yeah.
Megan, one last question on Donald Trump.
Bill said this really hurts the Trump campaign.
because Fox was so important the first time around.
I agree with him.
I don't think it's any accident that clearly the Murdox have turned on Trump.
I mean, just read the journal and the post, if you have any doubt.
Right.
And Tucker was an important voice for, I think Tucker loves the Trump fans.
I don't think Tucker loves Trump.
You know, I believe that behind the scenes,
where he was looking forward to not having to cover him every night.
Right.
But I think Tucker loves the Trump fans, and they know that at Fox.
They don't have a more powerful voice who gets them than Tucker.
And I don't think it's any accident.
They got rid of Bungino, and now Tucker.
Tucker's going.
There's not another person at Fox who gets the MAGA Corps, the way Tucker does,
and always has, by the way, always has.
Megan, thanks a lot.

That was a heck of an hour there, Glenn.
I don't know where you're getting that anywhere else.
We're getting three former Fox News hosts
who left the peak of their popularity
to go do different things in different ways
and different reasons,
all analyzing this story with Tucker Carlson.
I don't know where else you're getting that packed into one hour.
Really incredible stuff.
I wish we had Dan Bongino on.
I've known Dan since.
I was at Fox.
He was a secret service agent.
And I see this guy with a flag lapel pin standing off to the side of the camera.
He just reeked of secret service.
And he had his day up in New York.
And it was his day off.
And he wanted to come in and meet me.
And we had quite the conversation at the time because he was still at the White House at the time.
And he was, you know, they couldn't come to an agreement with Dan Bond.
Gino at Fox News last year.
Surely a coincidence.
I will say this, Glenn.
There's one question that has not been answered yet, and I just wish we had an answer
to it.
What can you watch at 8 p.m. Eastern now?
Like, if you're, if you were watching Tucker Carlson, where do you go to get insightful
commentary on the news of the day five days a week at 8 p.m.
Eastern?
If there was only an option for people.
Can't think of one.
Well, I mean, I do my show then.
You do your show at 9.
9 p.m. Eastern.
But I'm saying the hour leading into that is an important hour.
Nothing.
And I think if I could just...
No, you mean 9 p.m.
Eastern.
There's Tucker Carlson aired 8 p.m. Eastern.
There's no shows you can think of.
Not one.
You could direct people to...
No.
Right now with a power.
I mean, you might roll the dice and see if there's something on on Blaze TV.
Oh, that's an interesting.
But I can guarantee you, I've watched Blaze TV and nothing.

All right, let's talk a little bit about Joe Biden.
He is running officially.
It is, I can't, I mean, it's so exciting.
It's, I, can you feel it?
I mean, just listen to the buzz that's in the air.
Okay, maybe it's because I'm aging out and I can't hear the buzz anymore, but I know it's,
you can, the feeling is electric behind Biden 2024.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's going to be exciting.
His campaign strategy is a lot like his campaign kickoff.
a lot of people go with the big crowds and the hoopla, you know, the bands, all of that stuff,
making big speeches, but not Joe.
He decided to announce his campaign about 3 o'clock in the morning.
And it's just grown from there.
It's just, I mean, again, listen to the buzz.
It's crazy.
I don't know what that was.
I heard a little bit of buzz there for a second.
I did, I did.
It started for just a second.
Yeah, no, there's not a lot of.
Excitement.
Excitement.
Yeah.
Or like interest, I would say, in his candidacy, even from Democrats.
Yeah, I think it's, what is it?
25 or 35% of the American people are saying like, oh, yeah, I'm excited for him to run.
I think it's 25%.
I think it was something like 36% for Donald Trump.
Yeah.
Which is like, again, think of the, Donald Trump has been through eight years of people saying he's literally Hitler.
And nobody.
has called Joe Biden Hitler. No. I mean, nobody's saying nobody's saying anything about Joe Biden.
So, wow. And he's got lower ratings than Donald Trump. It's really incredible. It's incredible.
And I think, you know, we were talking about earlier. His campaign, the idea is just put ads out, image him, keep him away from crowds. Don't let him do live things. Shut him up. Don't let any.
anybody, you know, see that he goes to night night at 10 a.m.?
And let's hope he wins again.
This is why he put the ad out at like 3 a.m.
That's like his prime time.
Yeah, he was up going to the bathroom.
Right.
He's up like 10 times a night.
Yeah.
So, look, has there ever been, I mean, let's think about this.
Has there ever in American history been less enthusiasm for a sitting president to run again?
Not that I can think of.
That ran?
Yeah.
Yeah, you'd have to go back in the 1800s.
Obviously, you see people who, you know, ran once and decided not to run the second term.
You could argue, I guess, there that maybe there was lower excitement, but, you know, I don't know, not much.
I can't really think of any off the top of my head because it's not even like, even though there's plenty of scandals to discuss and we will be discussing them.
It's not like a single scandal-based type of thing.
It's just this has been really bad and he's really old and no one's inspired by him.
and every decision he is making ends up being bad for the nation.
I mean, look what they're doing in Sudan right now.
All other countries are getting their people out of Sudan
because it's just a massacre happening over there.
And we got all of our embassy people out.
And then the embassy, when it closed, went,
oh, by the way, all you Americans should get yourself out.
We don't have the resources to get you out.
France has the resources.
We don't have the resources to get American citizens out.
And the promises basically screw you guys.
Oh, it's like it's just, we're not even going to try.
There's not even, it's not like a failed attempt.
It's no attempt.
Tim Kennedy is going to be on a plane, I think today to go over there and he's with Save Our Allies and others.
And I'm sure Mercury 1 is going to be assisted.
getting those Americans out.
This is, it's, it's just one abomination after another.
One abomination after another.
Yesterday, he said that there's no such thing as someone else's child.
Here it is.
Cut, cut one.
Here's Joe Biden.
Rebecca put a teacher's creed into words when she said,
there's no such thing as someone else's child.
No such thing as someone else's child.
Our nation's children are all our children.
Okay.
No, no, they're not.
No, they're not. You could say we're all children of God, but you can't say all children is everybody's children. No, that's not, mm-mm. No, my child is my child, not yours. I don't have ownership of my child. I have stewardship of my child. I was the one that brought them into this world and I'll bring them out. I and my wife were the ones that created that child with God.
It's our responsibility, not yours.
That is one of the scariest things I've ever heard a U.S. President ever say.
You know, we had this from MSNBC a while back, but that's what they believe.
This is the socialist kind of mentality that the children belong to everyone, meaning they belong to the state.
Yeah, the clip we played earlier from 2013 was Blotharthur Perry on one of the MSNBC anchors now,
defunct. And at the time, it was controversial in 2013, to the point that they kind of ran away
from it. And then it actually has gone viral multiple times since where new audiences are discovering
it and being shocked by it. And here's Joe Biden out here blurting it out in public.
In case you missed that from Melissa Harris-Berry, listen to this.
We have never invested as much in public education as we should have because we've always had kind of a
private notion of children, your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We haven't had a
very collective notion of these are our children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind
of private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families and recognize
that kids belong to whole communities. Once it's everybody's responsibility and not just the households,
then we start making better investments. Right. That's great. That's great. Now, I just want to show
you, we're making investments in education now. Let me show you what it is like in East Hampton
Massachusetts. Female school committee member thought it was offensive to call her and other
colleagues ladies while a student wants anyone and everyone to be called a lady if they so choose.
Few weeks ago, town made national headlines after the first choice for the job, long-time educator
Vito Barone, lost the gig during email negotiations when he addressed a woman and the
women on the school committee as ladies.
Peron said the school committee chairperson,
Synthony Koensky, told him that using the plural of ladies was a microaggression,
and the fact that he didn't know that as an educator was a problem.
Peron said,
I was just trying to be respectful during good faith negotiations,
but his offer was rescinded.
Now, he should know.
that New York Magazine has put together, you know, a whole book on what you can and cannot say.
And one of the rules is you never address more than one woman as ladies.
It's frowned upon.
From men, it's oddly creepy and an unnecessary attempt to feign some kind of unity.
No, it's just showing respect.
What are you supposed to say?
Do you, I mean, God.
Use guys.
Use guys.
Because certainly the left doesn't think of people as individuals, so you can't address them
individually.
What is the appropriate group name we're supposed to come up with here?
I don't know.
Not ladies.
Okay?
Not that.
They'll let you know when you got the right one.
By telling you when you get the wrong one by firing you or rescinding the offer.
And then when you're living under a bridge, they come by and put it in graffiti on the wall.
These are the so-called experts.
these are the ones educating your children.
Okay, my children do not need to learn any of that crap.
They don't have to.
They shouldn't.
I strongly urge that they forget anything like that.
There should be no woke education.
But if you want to look at your child as your child, well, you're going to have to fight for it.
If you, you know, want to look at it as everybody's child and everybody can make the decision on what gender they are,
well then have at it
listen to this one
Christian
Only Fans star
Stu what is only fans
I want do you think I'm the only
I'm just saying I'm looking for an expert
My belief is that it is a pay
for
well you know
certain artists Glenn have fans
and they only want their fans on this site
and I guess if you you pay some money
they give you access to photos
many times when
clothing is falling off.
Okay.
So a Christian.
Good explanation?
Yeah.
Okay.
A Christian only fans star says she feels more connected to her faith since she kickstarted
her kinky career seven years ago and now believes God put her on earth to help liberate other women from their sexual shame.
Courtney Titia 35 made the declaration during an interview with the Daily Star.
saying God's message to me has been abundantly clear.
I'm here to be a porn star.
This is my way of serving.
The mom of four previously worked as a high school teacher,
but found their life lacked meaning
and her spirituality was suffering as a result.
Before I left teaching,
I felt super disconnected from myself and also God.
I didn't know what my life's purpose was
or how I was meant to help others.
But back in 2016, she found the courage to quit the classroom,
and she began an only fan's account with the support of her husband, Nick.
The ex-educator admits that initially she felt ashamed of her X-rated escapades
before she slowly began to realize that her strict Christian upbringing was the cause of her guilt.
I had so much sexual shame that was my own at first,
I remember being at a photo shoot that had several porn stars, and I was so triggered.
I could feel the judgments that society and religion had instilled in me, and I was very well aware of it.
She says she feels more connected to her Christian face since she started her Only Fan's account four years ago.
She now believes God put her on Earth to liberate other women.
That part of me that felt like their sexual choices and expression were wrong and immoral,
even felt wrong by association in that moment.
But that didn't feel like God telling me to feel that way.
She took her clothes off.
Now she's making lots of money and she's won with God.
Let me tell you something.
This is the kind of think that you will get from everybody having access to your children.
How appropriate that she was a teacher, a high school teacher.
Of course she was.
What else would she be doing?
This is, I mean, I don't know of a more clear time in my life.
I mean, I just think the choice is so clear between good and evil right now,
but there's so many people that are just lost and they don't see it.
I don't know how, but they just don't see it.
Stu, how is it you're so lost right now and you just don't see it?
I do see it and agree with your analysis on this situation.
I don't know, man.
I'm trying to think of what the answer is to that.
I mean, it just seems like we're totally lost.
And this is what happens, I guess, when your foundations are gone, right?
No one cares to believe in anything other than themselves in their own pleasure centers.
And that's how this happens, I suppose.
It is.
It is.
And what is incredible to me is the answer is so easy.
Everybody's searching for an answer.
It's simple.
It's simple. It's not easy, but it's simple.
Just return to the things that you know are true.
That's it. Just return to the teachings that hopefully your mom and dad or grandparents taught you.
You know the difference between right and wrong, and society has slowly, in dribs and drabs, changed your mind.
Because wouldn't it be great if you wanted to be a porn star and make lots of money, if you could just say, you know what?
think what Jesus was telling me was I should do porn activities on film for money. And that's
what I'm called to do. Is that in the Bible? Are you still in Bible country? No, I'm really out of
Bible country. Yeah. I mean, it's, uh, it's, it's, it's pretty clear. And, but everybody does it.
They want to have the life that they want to have. Yeah. And that's the, when that is your guiding
light, you end up here.
Right?
At the blaze?
No, I mean here as a country.
It's like, what?
Not here in this room, which is another thought that I've considered.
What have I done wrong to end up here?
That's been something that's been on my mind for many years.
I was thinking about it just this morning.
But it is that thing.
I mean, really, when you boil it down, I think that's where we are.
Right?
Like, these things lead you down these wrong roads.
And when you try to.
to get the GPS to go back to the right direction.
And the only GPS is society.
What you want, when you want it, how you want it.
You're completely lost.
No, you're completely lost.
You have to re-center it on north.
You've got to find your north star.
And then just make your way back.
Make the main thing, the main thing.
Yeah.
And often we don't do that.
And do the next right thing.
Your turn with it.
Oh, another slogan?
Yeah.
Okay.
We're just making bumper stickers at this point.
All right.
Hang on back in just a minute.
All right.
You can do all sorts of things to make yourself look better.
You can try to reverse.
I mean, if you're thinking about yourself all the time anyway,
of course you could go and you can get your face sliced up and you can get all sorts of surgeries done.
And you can try to do all that stuff.
But why would you do that when you have GenuCel?
GenuCel has a customer, Claire.
And she wrote, I absolutely love Jenny Cell.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
So we have Joe Biden holding fewer.
holding fewer press conferences than any president in 40 years.
Donald Trump, 19.5 during his first two years in office.
Barack Obama was at 23.
Bill Clinton was at 41.
Biden, 10.
That's kind of a, what was that all about?
And why didn't you announce your presidency, you know, like it's always announced,
on the road someplace with screaming people?
Why did you just do that in the middle of the night in your jammies?
We know the answer to that.
But what are you running against?
I mean, Stu and I were talking about it.
I don't know how, I mean, he's saying,
they're going to cut Social Security.
And the Republicans are like, no, we're not.
No, we're not.
We're not going to cut that.
I would like a Republican to cut, you know, social security.
Not all of it, but let's move the ages out.
I mean, when I was growing up, I never ever, when I was little, my dad said, you know, you're not going to get Social Security.
When I was little, I'm now almost 60.
I get it.
I never planned on it.
Now, there's a difference if you're doing hard labor.
If you're doing hard labor, your body is given out on you.
And there's some exceptions that maybe need to be made for people, but I don't know a soul.
if you're in your 20s, 30s, 40s, and you're expecting to get Social Security, you're a moron.
It's not going to happen.
But the GOP, who the hell is standing for even reasonable cuts?
Okay, don't cut Social Security.
I'm going to chop the snot out of everything else.
All of these programs just from COVID to today.
Gone.
Gone.
Why aren't the Republicans standing up for something?
Why are they just running on?
No, no, no, we won't do that.
We won't do that.
That's what has produced a couple of devastating losses here recently.
What are you for?
Don't tell me what you're against.
Tell me what you're for.
Back in a minute.
The Glenn Beck Program.
People ask me all the time.
What do you do to protect?
I know, I know buy gold, but I don't have.
have the money to buy gold. You'd be surprised, I think, especially some of the programs that
Gold Line has to buy gold. But silver is great as well. Silver will, silver would tide you over
in a real problem. You'd be able to use silver to buy and sell things. You can buy it brand new.
You don't have to worry about, you know, old silver coins or anything. It's a great place to
get started. Goldline has all kinds of silver. Bars, coins.
everything to help you along the road to your financial protection.
This week, Goldline has a very hard to find five ounce silver coin with additional free silver
if you get there special. Buy silver, get more silver free.
With every box of 100 of the five ounce silver coins, you'll receive 50 of the mine
your business silver bars at no additional cost. Don't wait. These will sell out this week.

Stu, what would New York do without Governor Kathy Houcher?
Don't answer that. Don't answer that. I was going to say succeed.
I want you to hear the latest proposal.
So, Kathy,
the great governor of the great state of New York
is now
considering
an all-out ban
on all cigarettes and tobacco
in New York. And I hear the people
clamoring for it. You know what I mean?
Right.
First, she wants to ban
menthol cigarettes
because she says that's a, you know, once you smoke menthol,
it's a lifelong, it's just a lifelong habit
that you'll just never be able to break.
even though I used to smoke menthol cigarettes for many, many years and stopped about 40 years ago, 30 years ago.
So it was not really that lifelong for me.
Anyway, so she is, you know, already the price of a pack of cigarettes is $18 in the city of New York.
It's $11 outside of the city of New York, but in New York State.
she just wants to ban them entirely.
And, you know, I was reading a little something that was interesting from the Foundation for Economic Education.
You know, many, many smokers will look at somebody like Kathy Hochel and say, she's a smoking Nazi or a health Nazi.
And there actually were health and smoking Nazis.
I don't know if you know this.
They were largely ahead of their time when it came to regulations regarding tobacco use.
They banned all smoking in public spaces, banned advertising.
They had restriction on tobacco rations for women, making it the most restrictive country in the world.
Bans then on women smoking because it's socially unacceptable.
You know what I mean?
Women being able to smoke.
Wow.
And it was enforced in Nazi Germany, as I think most laws were in Nazi Germany.
By the end of the 19th century, small and thin paper-rolled tobacco sticks were cheap and easy to consume.
Yet there was considerable stigma against them in the United States groups such as the clean living movement lobbied heavily for tobacco bans.
They associated cigarettes with excess alcohol consumption and pornography.
Yeah, once you start smoking, you immediately find yourself addicted to pornography.
Have you found that?
Really?
Yeah.
I've heard.
I've heard.
Their campaigns claimed eliminating the evil of alcohol, tobacco, and pornography would return traditional family values and lead to a prosperous era free from crime.
Well, maybe.
I mean, yeah, that should.
But what are you replacing the alcohol, tobacco and pornography with?
because you take all three of those out of people who are really kind of addicted to those things.
And it doesn't necessarily give you an era free of crime.
You know what I'm saying?
Interesting.
Interesting thought.
The movement in the 1930s was from the National Socialist Movement, National Socialist Movement.
I'm trying to remember what else those guys were called, Stu.
the National Socialists.
Oh, the Nazis.
Nazis.
They said in this article that it's quite stunning how the National Socialists in the 30s and 40s
had considerably more impact than the clean living movement in the United States.
Well, yes, one had a stormtrooper on the other end, and the other option was just like,
hey, you should do this because it's good for all of us.
I mean, which one do you think is going to be able to eliminate tobacco?
So, uh, Hojul is just following, you know, the footsteps of other, you know, other people
that believe in banning things that, that people want.
I think that's, I think that's great.
And we should also point out that the, the thing that is probably the best path to get people
to stop smoking cigarettes
has been completely vilified
by the government
which is vaping.
And again, like, look,
you shouldn't go from
never smoking to vaping. That's not a good
decision. Right. But the difference
between smoking and vaping
over every single
scientific study shows a massive
drop in risk.
And what our government
has done is say, let's make it
difficult. Let's put, you know, the main company who is involved in it out of business.
Let's take away all the flavors for whatever reason. We're going to take that away.
And what's happened with a lot of those people who enjoyed, you know, and again, I don't, I don't
vape, I don't smoke. But like people who enjoy the fruity flavored vaping wind up not liking
the regular flavor and going back to cigarettes. You know, this has happened over and over again,
and the government has been in a big part responsible for that.
And look, we can talk about and we do lots of other health risks.
Still the biggest really unnecessary health risk in this country is tobacco and smoking.
Your hundreds of thousands of people die every year.
We talk about every time there's a mass shooting, we all have that reaction and it is legitimately horrible.
Of course, we want to stop that.
But if you got rid of all mass shootings in America, you'd save what, 100 deaths?
per year, let's say 200 deaths per year, we want to do that. But you have something here that would
lower a 500,000 death count to what? 300,000, 200,000, 100,000, zero. And our government
makes it the enemy. This is how stupid we are. That's the end of that right. Well, thank you for
that update. I feel better. Don't you feel invigorated now? I mean, it really is frustrating. No,
it really is. No, I know it is. Everything is frustrating right now. Absolutely.
Everything. Here's a frustration I have. My daughter is in a, is in another play, musical. And it's a musical theater that she has not been to yet. She's, she just got notice that when the rehearsals start, you got to have a COVID test. Weekly COVID test. Now, what year is it? I know. I would just like to remind people, COVID is over. Okay? It's over.
Even Joe Biden says it's over.
In Washington, D.C., the public schools this week, after spring break, you had to come back with a COVID test.
I mean, if this just isn't just big pharma, just.
Big pharma is not setting D.C. school policies.
No, but politicians who like money are.
I mean, who are these people that are setting this policy?
who thinks that COVID is still a problem?
That's like walking around going,
I've got my iron lung just in case TB comes back.
I mean, is it a problem?
Sure.
You know, that doesn't mean that it's just one of many problems.
It's to that point where, what is it,
a couple hundred people per week are dying of COVID still,
almost exclusively over 70 years old.
You know, this is something,
where we are well, well, well past the point where people should be reacting this way.
Well, there's another one coming, you know. I heard it from Bill Gates.
I know. They do say that all the time. All the time. Did you hear the new pink eye now? That's the new
pink eye. This yeah, COVID's causing the new COVID stream supposedly causing some pink eye.
I am like legitimately two and a half years past board of the COVID talk. Like I am, I, I have
zero interest in. The only COVID talk I'm interested in.
is, hey, did you read Fauci went to jail?
That's pretty much all I want to hear.
That's all I want to hear.
No, he actually came out today and said, he never closed a school.
Never closed a factory.
Point to him, one example of him closing a factory.
He didn't have any power to close factories.
Now, that is true, technically.
Anthony Fauci did not have any power legally to close anything.
He made recommendations that everyone followed or they were booted off of their jobs
and all the ability to communicate our bank.
But he had no power directly.
But not closing down your bank account, your banking ability.
There was no...
It's all he had.
No strong arms on that.
By the way, Newsom is now calling out the National Guard
because the National Guard,
they have to crack down on crime in San Francisco.
Now, I'm trying to think what policies
could there have been
that led to out of control crime
so much so you needed to call in
the National Guard
Hmm
I can't
There's just a study that just came out on this too
Where you're gonna
You probably won't even believe this
This is the problem
But what the study reflected was
Apparently sarcastic show ever
We haven't said anything honest
I know
This is
Something that is real
the study came out and said, this is going to shock a lot of people.
Hiring more police officers coincided with a drop in crime.
No.
And getting rid of police officers coincided with a rise in crime, which is stunning to me.
That's crazy.
How?
How much that study cost?
Oh, I think $100 billion, I'm sure.
We could have hired a lot of police officers for it.
I'll tell you that.
You could have had that one done just by, you know, calling a house, any house in America
that's not, you know, from a leftist.
They would have said, yeah, it's pretty obvious you don't have enough police officers
or you demonize them and chase them out of your city.
Crime's going to go up.
And over time, of course, this is proven out by every one of these communities.
You go back to the 94 crime bill that Joe Biden was running for in the Democratic primary
or running from in the Democratic primary a few years ago.
But the reason that was a priority was not because white people,
and upscale suburbs were worried about crime.
The reason the crime bill became a big issue and was pushed through,
which was a tough on crime crime bill back in the day,
was because inner cities and minority communities were like,
please help us.
Please do something for us.
The same way they're crying out now for the same thing.
But please don't abandon us.
But nobody is listening to them now.
No one cares.
Nobody cares because the GOP,
doesn't think anybody will do anything, you know, to help them.
They're not just, they're just not doing the right thing because why should I?
I'm going to get slapped in the face for it.
And the black community is not listening because all of the socialists have control of those.
So what are they going to do?
They're just trapped and their kids are dying.
94% of all black crime is black on black crime.
94%
Yeah, someone
released a map the other day of
they mapped shootings
and then police affiliated
shootings on a map
and they were like trying to say, look how bad the gun problem
is. But what it
took, of course, the story it told
was that the focus
on police shootings which do
occur and sometimes are bad and
should be prosecuted when they are
is completely insane.
The same way we were just talking about
when it comes to mass shootings.
It is, sure, we all feel the pain of those incidents,
but it is such a small part of the problem
that you try to reduce them,
even if you were completely successful,
it would almost make no difference in the overall problem.
Focus on the big buckets.
There's huge buckets of actual crime going on
and go on and say, hey, let's chop that down by 20%.
It would make a much bigger difference,
even if you could solve some of the things
cable news focuses on every day.
Well, there would be somebody to stand up for that tonight at 8 o'clock.
No, they fired Tucker Carlson or he left.

All right, David lives in Pennsylvania.
He found himself suffering from regular sharp pains in both his shoulders and feet.
And he heard about Relief Factor on the show for a long time, but he was skeptical.
Eventually, you know, the pain got worse and his options ran out.
So he decided, might as well give Relief Factor a chance.
He didn't have to wait long.
Within a few weeks, the pain in his shoulders and feet already beginning to melt away.
David got his life back.
If you are dealing with pain, I know, you're skeptical.

Let's see. What do we have? On Tuesday, Fox settled a lawsuit for $787 million last week. Thursday, Dan Bongino announced he was leaving Fox after his contract talks failed.
Sunday, AOC went on NBC and blamed Fox News for incitement of violence. Then you had a younger,
threaten a lawsuit saying that Tucker Carlson said bad things about her and was suing.
Also on Sunday, 60 Minutes runs a story with Ray Epps where he says Tucker Carlson was, quote,
trying to destroy my life.
And then on Monday, it was announced that Tucker was leaving from Fox News.
Hmm, wonder what that means.
Here's the thing.
They are doing everything they can to shut up any voice that discerning.
