Starting point is 00:00:00 This is the Glimbeck program. We've got a lot going on today. We're going to go over some of the things that were on the special last night and add to it on Bernie Sanders and why America really needs to pay attention to socialism. Now, this is kind of our last call. We have our coronavirus update. There's a lot to report on that today. Of course, Romney is checking in. Stu is in Washington, D.C. for CPAC.
Starting point is 00:00:28 I'll be joining him Friday night. I'm going up to speak Saturday morning at CPAC, and looking forward to that. We'll check in with him. Really? Is that honest? I don't know if that felt. Yeah, it is.

Starting point is 00:01:28 Fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glembeck program. Hello America and welcome to Thursday. We have an update on the special that we did last night because the Bernie radicals are active all the time. Last night we did the Bernie bros, the Bernie radicals. the fires of the revolution that they are now starting and the media refuses to look at. The left has taken and eaten the Democratic Party. This is a real danger.
Starting point is 00:02:24 And this time I hope America wakes up to it. It may be our last call. Bernie Sanders, the fires of the revolution in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck program. So honestly, I think this is a. less of a commercial today and more of a public service announcement from My Patriot Supply. We woke up to a sudden spike in cases of coronavirus in Italy. The market has lost 3% of its value overnight.
Starting point is 00:02:54 The warning signs were there over the past month, but the whole thing for most people just exploded. It just came on their radar this week. My Patriot Supply was offering four weeks ago when we were talking about it and saying, hey, you should order this. They were offering a 45% special off of their two-week food supply. Well, you responded, and now everybody is responding. They are going to honor that while supplies last, but I will tell you that they're already, usually they ship them out in two days.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I think they're already projecting at least two weeks to get these things out, and they're working 24-7 to be able to get them out. include breakfast, lunch, and dinner can last up to 25 years in storage. The CDC said this week that you may have to be quarantined in your house. You may have to prepare for a time where you're not able to go out to the store for at least a couple of weeks. They are still honoring their 45% special and they will ship them as fast as they can. You might want to consider getting more than two weeks. Time is running out to prepare on this.
Starting point is 00:04:05 don't face the prospect of empty shelves or closed grocery stores without preparing your family to be able to eat. What are you going to do? Preparewithglen.com. Go there right now. Prepare with glen. Years now. America can never forget this day. Somebody said he shouted out as this R's or D's and someone shouted back Republicans.
Starting point is 00:05:10 24 elected officials practicing baseball for God's sakes. The bullets are landing just a couple of feet from me. Targeted. One almost lost his life. It all happened because a delusioned man so strongly supported a socialist candidate that he believed using a gun was the only way and the right way to achieve his utopian ideal. And time after time after time throughout both history and in our current day, We've seen those who support a communist way of life resort to violence to make their point, to get their way.
Starting point is 00:05:47 They destroy or even kill anyone who stands in their way. It's the reality those living under communism have to endure every day. But now, it's becoming a reality here. The Democrats are about to nominate. Currently, their front runner. When Fidel Castro came into office, You know what he did? He had a massive literacy program.
Starting point is 00:06:14 Is that a bad thing? A guy who has failed time and time again to speak out against the violence, his supporters, his campaign workers, advocate. A candidate who supported every single violent communist regime throughout history. American journalists talk about how bad a country is because people are lining up for food. That's a good thing. What happens to the shining city on the hill? The beacon of freedom for the rest of the world.
Starting point is 00:06:45 If a candidate who supports this becomes the most powerful man in the world, will turn for help. You remember this from Hong Kong. A Bernie Sanders presidency is dangerous for far too many reasons. Higher taxes, Medicare for all, a near complete government takeover of any industry you could possibly name. Our stock market will craft. This?
Starting point is 00:07:27 This is what changes us the most. I know what Bernie's like, you know, like, hey, for education, for everybody, we're going to have to teach you now to be a fucking Nazi. There's a reason Joseph Stalin had gulags, right? Over and over again, Bernie has shown he appeals to the angry left, the violent left. And it's time the media stops excusing his apparent inability to doubt, the countless examples of extremism, his rabid fan support.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Who likes are actually meant for like reeducation? It's time America to stop ignoring the truth. Because if we don't, America is never the same again. It is time you know the truth about Bernie Sanders and those he works with. And it begins right now. That was the opening of our special that you can now watch on demand at Blaze TV. If you're not a subscriber, please subscribe blazTV.com slash Glenn. We opened the first probably 10 minutes of the special with the work of Project Veritas and tried to put that into context and perspective.
Starting point is 00:08:49 You've seen many of the campaign supporters that have been talking about guillotining the rich, talking about going in and dragging the MSNBC staff out into the street by their hair and setting them on fire. This is exactly, I mean, almost word for word, what I warned against in 2000, was it nine or 11, on the radio and television program. I said, you journalists, you think you know what you're dealing with. but they will come after you, not just me, you, because you are part of the problem. And they will drag you out in the streets and beat you to death. And they won't have a problem with it. We are dealing now with people who are verbalizing that and are in the same position as the guy who said those things before and then went out to a ballpark in Virginia and,
Starting point is 00:09:54 tried to kill half the Congress, but I want you to know, this isn't about half the Congress. This is about the media, the Democrats, and the Republicans. They don't want any of this. They want a completely different system. They want socialism. And you can call it warm and fuzzy Scandinavian socialism, but Scandinavian socialism doesn't exist anymore. It existed in the 50s and the 60s and by the 70s it was going bankrupt and they abandoned socialism. They abandoned it.
Starting point is 00:10:33 It didn't work. Do they have a bigger safety net? Yes. But their corporations are more free than we are. I want you to understand. Listen to these words. Socialism is the doctrine that man has no right to exist for his. own sake, that his life and his work do not belong to him, but belong to society, that the only
Starting point is 00:11:05 justification of his existence is his service to society, and that society may dispose of him in any way it pleases for the sake of whatever it deems to be its own tribal collective good. If you watched Game of Thrones, this was the philosophy. It just wasn't socialism, it was feudalism. The kings established the kingdom, and your life had no consequence. None. They could do whatever they wanted to to the serfs.
Starting point is 00:11:42 They could rape your women. They could kill your family. They could take your land. It didn't matter because it was for the good of the kingdom. You, as an individual, did not count. There were a group of elites. They were born into it or had special privileges because, well, they were the elites. They were the educated.
Starting point is 00:12:07 They were the priests. The same thing. This is the same system as what Game of Thrones was like, where if you displease the king, you're dead. Except the king in this particular case is just a bunch of elites that think they know better. than you. I want to make this really super clear. I was wrong about Barack Obama on one thing, for sure. And that was that he was going to usher in the revolution in his term. I thought that's what he was going to do in the first couple of years. And that's what I was warning about because he had people like Van Jones around him.
Starting point is 00:12:59 But Barack Obama, what I failed to see and what people like Van Jones failed to see was that Barack Obama turned to the progressive route because he had surrounded himself to be able to win the presidency. He surrounded himself with Clinton progressives. There's a difference between a progressive and a revolutionary. A revolutionary. believes in what's called direct action. That's Antifa.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Direct action means I don't care what the vote says. It's time for direct action. It's time to go to the streets, break the windows, burn things down, crystal knock. The night of broken glass in Germany. That is direct action. And when it is supported by those in higher office and those in power.
Starting point is 00:14:01 That's when you start to have communism or Nazism reign. Remember, Kristallnock was just a bunch of rabble-rousers. Oh my gosh, did they really do that? That's horrible. Well, we'll have to look into that. But the state and the media turned a blind eye because it was okay to do. and it was the revolutionaries that were doing it scare people into silence. I want to show you last night I showed you the Project Veritas in the first 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:14:49 And when you see these people in the context that we placed it in, you know, Project Veritas has done some really, really good things. And they went undercover and they exposed all of these people. but I don't think people understand what they exposed. Oh, that's just some low, you know, staffer. Well, no. That's, that, these people hold exactly the same position still in the Bernie Sanders camp, still hold the same position that the shooter did in Virginia.
Starting point is 00:15:28 That shows me something is very, very, very wrong. They endorse it. They're fine with you. tactics. They're talking about burning Milwaukee to the ground. See, the Democrats are in an impossible place. They invited these, and I'm going to use this word, and I know it's bold, but it's true, these killers into their own camp. And now what? Now, how do you get rid of them? Because they're killers. Eventually, when you have enough power, Hitler had to kill them. He killed his brown shirts, the people that were causing all of the problems on the street,
Starting point is 00:16:16 because eventually the guy in power knows, you know, they could challenge me and they can't have any more power. So once their usefulness is over, they're killed. Because remember, it's for the good of the state. People don't matter. In the special last night, we then moved to who Bernie Sanders has. around him as leading advisors. Who is actually running his campaign? We'll get into that and show you how these brown shirts,
Starting point is 00:17:01 or if you want to call them Mussolini, black shirts, or I think they were, they were just called Bolsheviks in Russia, how these people are acting right now and the press is turning a blind eye. Ronald Reagan said in the 1960s, it's a time of choosing. America, this may be your last call. To Democrats, independence, and Republicans,
Starting point is 00:17:36 I call on you to choose, but choose with actual information. I'm going to share some stuff with you today. day, do not take my word for any of this. Do your own homework. Do not dismiss it out of hand, but do not accept it out of hand either. Do your own homework. We continue in one minute.

Bernie Sanders supporters on Monday live streamed their activity on social media, while Betsy Durkin-Longren concluded a campaign appearance in Champaign, Illinois.
Starting point is 00:20:04 Following the event, a Bernie Sanders bros group challenged her to debate an Illinois socialist candidate, Stephanie Smith. One person in the video can be heard asking, where'd she go? Somebody else said, she's going out. Let's go. The Sanders supporters then surrounded this candidate's vehicle. telling each other to block her in, get by her window. One of the agitators can be heard aggressively asking her whether she'll support Medicare for all. A local CBS Capital Bureau chief posted about the incident yesterday on Twitter saying,
Starting point is 00:20:44 they scream at her to debate a fringe far-left candidate who only has two donors from Illinois. Smith, the candidate, the socialist candidate, praised the group for their action against her opponent in a video reaction that she posted on Facebook. She said, and I quote, I can't tell you how much it meant to me when I watched the video of what happened, when I saw the red umbrellas going up. If Betsy can't handle a few people demanding a conversation about the life or death issues facing many of us in this district, she should quit now. The incident is another example of reported, quote, misconduct from the Bernie Bros. They are not Bernie Bros. They are revolutionaries. Stop dismissing them.
Starting point is 00:21:43 in Nevada supporters of his 2020 presidential campaign sent threatening messages to Nevada's culinary union officials online. We went over this last night in the special. Union officials were called, excuse the
Starting point is 00:21:59 language, bitches, whores, effing scabs, evil entitled A-holes. They were referred to as corrupt M-Fers and that in time, people would come after them. We will find you. We will isolate you and we will destroy your life.
Starting point is 00:22:20 This is who the Democrats are now trying to decide should he be the frontrunner or not. You don't have to like Donald Trump. You don't have to vote for Donald Trump. But anyone who thinks that Bernie Sanders is Larry David is a fool. We'll have more on this.

Starting point is 00:24:29 Welcome to the program. Welcome to Stu in Washington, D.C. who was on a plane last night, so I doubt you got a chance to watch the special. And welcome to Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed. Thank you. It's excellent to be here. What a special because I don't think a lot of people know
Starting point is 00:24:47 who Bernie surrounds himself with. I don't think they understand that this isn't just some old curmudgeon socialist with dumb ideas. that America can just reject. That a bunch of Democrats are helping. Yeah. That's not what's happening here. It's not what's happening.
Starting point is 00:25:04 We started with the project veritas of who the people are on the ground. And you can deny, you could say, well, we didn't know. Well, you did know. The video's out there and you did nothing about it. We reached out to the Sanders campaign and said, do you disavow this? Do you disavow these people? No response. And they all still work for him, right?
Starting point is 00:25:25 as far as we know. Yeah. No response. But it's beyond that. As you go into the special, you know, after the first 10 minutes, you start to see who he has in his campaign. First, there's Claire Sandberg. She's the national organizing director and also Winnie Wong, a senior campaign advisor. Winnie Wong, we showed you pictures of them hanging out with Linda Sarsour and Elon Omar, etc., etc.
Starting point is 00:25:54 but when Wong isn't, you know, busy with anti-Semites, she's giving speeches at Democratic Socialists of America Convention. Her speech, one of them, was titled Revolution at the Crossroads, Igniting the Social Resistance Against Trump. After she was with the campaign in 2016, and after Bernie failed, she was busy traveling around the world. She went to Europe to train leftist political groups like Podmos in Spain. That's the Communist Party in Spain. UK's Labor Party. She worked with them. The Left, which is the Democratic Socialist Party in Germany.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Now, here's what's crazy about this. The Left is a new name, but it's the same organization that used to be the ruling party in communist East Germany. so they've rebranded and Bernie's Bernie's what is she the campaign um senior campaign advisor is over training these people Sandberg
Starting point is 00:27:04 who is above her she's the national organizing director she went to Norway along with Wong to train leaders of the Rote party now the Rote party in Norwegian is actually translated to the Red Party.
Starting point is 00:27:23 It is the Communist Red Party. So let it sink in. The national organizing director in charge of his entire army of street organizations, one of his senior campaign advisors are in high demand as trainers of communist parties over in Europe. Then another Bernie senior official, Senior Policy Advisor Heather Gottney, she was also an Occupy Wall Street veteran and a sociology professor at Fordham University. You might remember her because she was the one that wrote that big article in the Washington Post about how this leaderless group is so powerful and how you do this, how you put these things together. Well, she had so much inside information that everybody was like, she's the leader.
Starting point is 00:28:16 She's the architect of this. She was like, no, no, no, they don't have leaders. No, I'm just observing. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Well, uh, she was invited to speak at a university and she said, she said, I felt my role was to maintain my position as representing the movement. Unfortunately for her, the university that invited her was the University of Tehran in Iran. And it was, it was.
Starting point is 00:28:46 the conference was called an American awakening, and it was all about the left waking up and taking over and overthrowing the United States government. That's a senior campaign advisor for Bernie Sanders. By the way, she also spoke in favor of Chavez in Venezuela while Chavez was there. She said, today's neoliberal capitalist system has become utterly incompatible with the requisites of democratic freedom. As it stands, U.S. representative political and economic institutions are not structured as representative bodies in any real sort of way. Democratic, once again, this is why I'm so sensitive to that word because the socialists use it all the time to mask their true designs.
Starting point is 00:29:39 They make it sound like, this is totally American. What do you mean? This is Democratic. I'm pushing democracy. No, no, you're not. You're pushing socialism. Do people just think that Bernie Sanders has a whole bunch of just rank and file, normal, everyday, all-American Democrats working for him and around him? Because nobody's talking about any of this. Nobody's looking into any of this, except you. No, there's lots of people that are looking into it.
Starting point is 00:30:08 I'm just trying to... Are they? Because I don't hear any of it. Project Veritas is doing a lot. Oh, okay. You know, Ben Shapiro, I think, is doing a lot. They're talking about like his campaign manager and... No, but they are trying... There are a lot of us that are trying to say, America, wake up.
Starting point is 00:30:25 This isn't happy socialism. Oh, it's bad. Happy socialism doesn't work, but this isn't about Medicare for all. This is about an end to the capitalist system. I mean, we have one of their campaign supporters that we showed last night that he, He's saying, look, things are more important now. US law is irrelevant because human existence is at stake. So they're saying that because they are right, they can break any law.
Starting point is 00:30:55 When Bernie Sanders declares the global warming as a crisis, as an American crisis and an American emergency, which his campaign is saying it's the first thing he's going to be doing. When he does that, American laws can become irrelevant quickly. Yeah, Stu? No, it's just, it's an incredible thing to watch this happen and go down the way it is, because there used to be a time where, I mean, we saw this with, who was it just the other day, the reporter from ABC, I think it was, where the same thing with James O'Keefe went in there
Starting point is 00:31:40 and caught him saying these things off, you know, he was a socialist and stuff, and they suspended him for it. Usually there's at least the person who does the kind of crazy thing, they'll suspend or fire or whatever, and they'll just say it's not systemic, it's one person, he's low level, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Bernie is like the first person that I can remember
Starting point is 00:32:01 who's just like, no, we're just going to keep all these people that are saying we're going to murder people and put him in gulags. We're just going to keep them on staff. Is any reporter going to step up and say, hey, Bernie, what about these people? They didn't in Germany. They didn't in communist Russia in 1919. They didn't.
Starting point is 00:32:19 This is the way it happens. The press is infiltrated. The press will be fine with it until they start coming after the press. And then it's too late. I mean, if you think that the democratic institutions are going to stop this, it's not going to. the democratic institutions that we have have been infiltrated and are are toothless at this point the the media the democrats it's too late and they're all focused on beating Donald Trump look you want to throw somebody like even Elizabeth Warren she's not a revolutionary that hates America she just sees it in a very different way. Bloomberg doesn't hate America.
Starting point is 00:33:08 I think the guy is really, really bad for the country. I think this guy is an autocrat. He's Woodrow Wilson. But he's not a revolutionary that hates America. Yeah, you know, people aren't excited about the country when they continually talk about transforming it. You don't transform something you love. It doesn't need transformation. And this is the same thing, the same problem we had with Obama,
Starting point is 00:33:34 who started this process, and now the plan is for Bernie Sanders to finish the process. You know, it's amazing. I've been thinking of the last few weeks. First of all, I want to go over all the things that we predicted because I think now is the reaping. Yeah. Right now is the reaping. Yeah. I said they would take their mask off. I said they wanted to tell you, they wanted you to know that they were revolutionaries, that they were socialist. They wanted you to know. They want this fight. We're all there. The one thing that keeps coming. to mind is how I said during Obama, if you allow this now, imagine what is going to happen with the next president or the president after that. Last night in a really chilling piece of video, one of the Bernie Sanders people said, look at where we are. Four years ago in 2016, we didn't win.
Starting point is 00:34:31 We couldn't have won. if you would have told us four years ago that America would be on the precipice of embracing socialism, we wouldn't have believed it. And then, if we're here now, can you even imagine where we'll be in four years? America, it is the time of choosing. You must choose now. It's a really great point made by that Bernie follower. It is. Because, yeah, look how far we've come since the last Bernie campaign.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Nobody was on board even with Medicare for all. No Democrats wanted that. Or at least they didn't admit to wanting it. And now here we are with them all embracing it. Let's see. It's fascinating, too, to watch, I think, because you have a situation where 40% of Democratic primary voters in 2016 already cast a vote for this guy. So it's been normalized in a way. That back and forth of a two-person race.
Starting point is 00:35:32 sort of normalized him as a regular candidate. And now they're like, well, we voted for him last time. Why not go out there and vote him for him again? Well, last time you basically did it because it was an anti-Clinton vote. Here, this guy's now winning. This is not a protest vote anymore. This is a guy who could actually get your nomination. Regular Democrats need to think about that really seriously before they cast that vote.
Starting point is 00:35:52 But see, here's the problem. Regular Democrats who are in the party, I mean, the ones who are, you know, part of the political system, they're not listening to their own constituents who are tired of this. They're tired of the corruption and the campaigns and the they're just tired of it. Just like the Republicans were tired of it and they elected Donald Trump. This has to end. This has to end. If you're tied, if they, if they take Bernie and somehow or another force him out,
Starting point is 00:36:30 it's only going to empower him and make his message even stronger because people will go, look at how corrupt the Democratic Party is. The Democrats will. And they'll have another bad candidate and it'll be bad and they'll all just say, you know what, at least this guy wants to burn the system down. That's where we're headed. And that is their stated intention. The stated intention of Russia, the state of.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Russia, the stated intention of Antifa and the weather underground all the way back. Get people to not believe in any of the institutions because once you do, you just want anybody to fix it. Gosh, do you remember me saying that? You'll make, you'll take flowered pivot thing. Anyone to make the pain stop. Yep. America. Wake up on Bernie Sanders. You can see that special now at the blaze blaze.com, blazeTV.com, blazetiv.com slash glen.

Starting point is 00:43:25 But there have been times when you've gone into a little bit of debt. Maybe that trip to Hawaii that you almost but couldn't quite afford, maybe you've had a raise coming and it didn't come or whatever. At that time you had to get another car that you hadn't planned on or somebody went into the hospital. All of these things, maybe you've racked up a little bit of debt. Now the credit card companies are starting to charge 21% interest. That's insane. Think of the spread that they are making right now.
Starting point is 00:43:57 They're getting it from the Fed at damn near zero. So that means everything that you spend, they get 21%. You've got to get out of that racket. it. American financing was designed to help you see and deal with the problems of your life and see, and really see over the horizon. Mortgage rates now are at the lowest they've been since 2016. That means if you got a mortgage and it was low then, you got a mortgage at 2017, you're going to save money with a refi. It means that now you're going to be able to take that 21% interest rate, roll it into a refi or a consolidation loan with American financing, and that 21% goes to
Starting point is 00:44:40 three and a half or four percent. That's a lot of money you've just saved every single month. It can change your life. And the people that I trust, it's American financing. Go to American financing right now at 800906 2440. 800, 9062440. It's Americanfinancing. Not net.
Starting point is 00:45:01 American financing, NMLS, 182,334. www. nmLS consumer access.org. I'm going to spend some time talking to you about a couple of things that I said would happen and are now happening. I was mocked and ridiculed and called a racist and a Nazi myself for telling you that Nazis were going to reappear, that the old hatreds of Europe in the 1930s would begin to reappear. and you would see the same fight. Well, the Nazis have reappeared, but so far in very small numbers,
Starting point is 00:45:45 but the communists, the revolutionaries, are literally everywhere. Can you imagine if we had somebody taking the stage today saying, And here we are, imagine. We're all national socialists. How great is this? And people cheering, can you imagine what? what the press would say. Well, we have an international socialist.
Starting point is 00:46:14 That's a communist. National socialist is a Nazi. An international socialist is a communist. Same basic philosophy. One just says workers of the world unite. The other says workers of Germany unite. They both believe in taking over the world. They both believe in shooting anyone who disagrees with them.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Now, I don't believe that most people who are, let's just say this. 30% of Germans voted for Adolf Hitler in the Nazi party. 30%. I don't believe all 30% that voted for Hitler believed that he really was going to kill all the Jews. all you had to do is read his manifesto mind conf. And you knew he said it all there. Everything he said, everything he did was there. But the people of Germany didn't take it seriously because it was insane.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Bernie Sanders and his people are talking about an end to the American constitution, an end to American capitalism, an end to the way America has. always been an end to it. They are talking now about this is not a battle just about Donald Trump or the Republicans. This is a battle about the Democrats as well because the Democrats are not socialists. They have been playing footsy with socialists, but they're not socialist revolutionaries. Barack Obama was a socialist. Barack Obama was a Marxist, but Barack Obama knew you have to drop the radical pose for the radical ends. So he got in with the Democratic Party and he just kind of infiltrated with Bill Ayers and all these people. And they just got in.
Starting point is 00:48:19 And then you started to see the corruption of this is when they became all of a sudden the Jews were not welcome in the Democratic Party. All of a sudden you start to see people like AOC pop in. That's because the socialists got in. and began to eat. Bernie Sanders has eaten the Democratic Party. And it is about to eat America. If you happen to say, I can't vote for Donald Trump, I'm not going to argue with you.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I could point out a million reasons. And I will as the campaign goes on. But you have to make your own decision. And I know people that say, I just don't like him. Okay, fine. You don't have to like him. But look at the policies. Well, I just think he goes off, you know, half-cocked.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Fine. Don't you go off half-cocked with faulty information and vote for a socialist revolutionary? Barack Obama was a Marxist that became a progressive. This is a Marxist that has been a revolutionary and will always be a revolutionary. Anybody notice how he doubles down on his love for Castro? He's not denying it. He's not going to play the progressive game. Why?
Starting point is 00:49:50 Because you know what? You have to crack a few eggs to make an omelet. And he's willing to crack your eggs. So I told you, if you accept this from Barack Obama, imagine the next person that they will run. And look who it is, Bernie Sanders. people as we showed you on our special last night on Blaze TV if you're not a subscriber you need to be a subscriber I showed you on my special last night Bernie's
Starting point is 00:50:20 radicals what they're now saying the people inside the Sanders camp say we can't believe we're here four years ago we were nothing eight years ago nobody wanted to say they were a socialist can you imagine where it will be in four years from now. Yes, I can. Can you America? Let me show you something that is unbelievable that happened last night from one of the main speakers at a Bernie rally in South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Listen. How does it feel to be a bunch of radicals, huh? Evolutionaries. Socialists here in Myrtle B. Okay, he's not mocking that. He's not saying, hey, how's it feel to be a bunch of deplorables? He's actually saying, we're out in the open. Do you remember when I told you?
Starting point is 00:51:26 They want to tell you. They're begging for the fight. They want to tell you. And someday the mask will come off and they will say it. Yeah, because capitalism doesn't work. Damn right. We're socialists. They're saying this in the best economy and unemployment rate in 50 years.
Starting point is 00:51:50 Imagine how this will ring true to so many people when they're hungry because the economy turns. I told you that they would unmask, that these things would grow, and anti-Semitism would grow. Well, look at Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders says Benjamin Netanyahu is a reactionary racist. Who believes that? Netanyahu has been around for how long? He's a racist, a reactionary, racist? When he first came in and America didn't know who he was,
Starting point is 00:52:36 maybe you could say, oh, well, he's going to get him all killed. He's going to get everybody, he's going to march off to war every time. He's a reactionary racist? Where does that come from? Well, probably from the two communists. There's three of them. We pointed them out in the special last night. You can watch it on demand right.
Starting point is 00:52:55 now at blaisTV.com slash glen uh we pointed out the three people that are head of his foreign policy of his campaign the campaign manager the head of the foreign policy and bernie speechwriter all massive anti-semites massive and don't take my word for it look at the evidence i mean i don't have to defend myself and tear apart the evidence show me where i'm wrong show me where their is incorrect. Now let me give you some other numbers now. To show you, please listen.

Starting point is 00:53:51 and doesn't talk to me like, Glenn! It's a feeling I have it's a it's a voice in my own head that we all have I just choose to know I'm not getting that information from me I wouldn't have known that stuff wouldn't have known about the caliphate and yes I do believe God talks to all of us some of us refuse to listen some of us deny his voice

Starting point is 00:54:43 One in five Europeans now, according to a new survey, one in five Europeans have kind of a different response. This is 16,000 people in this survey. A quarter of respondents. agreed with a statement that Israel's policies make them understand why people hate the Jews. That's funny because that's what people said. That's what Roosevelt, your beloved Democrat, said about the Jews in Germany when the rumors were that they were being liquidated. Well, they brought it upon themselves. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Congratulations, World. We're graduating back into the class of 1938. more than a quarter concurred with a statement that Israel is engaged in legitimate self-defense against its enemies. More than a quarter. But a quarter of respondents disagreed, and 46% had no opinion. More than a third agreed with the assertion that during World War II, people suffer just as much as the Jews. And another disturbing update on what's coming our way, Germany has overturned.
Starting point is 00:55:56 the ban on professionally assisted suicide. Remember, Germany had kind of a problem with doctors going bad. And so the Germans have always felt, hey, let's make sure that doesn't happen. And maybe doctors shouldn't be the one, you know, pushing death. Well, they've overturned that now. They say that really, our doctors can decide and our doctors should be able to help kill people. Spanish Carnival is in trouble featuring lingerie-clad female not.

Starting point is 00:58:15 But once this flu season is over, we don't start with the flu, this particular flu, back in China. It now is everywhere in the world.

Starting point is 01:05:29 We're at 11% loss just this week because of coronavirus and we will tell you all you need to know on the coronavirus. Coming up in just a second. I wanted to look at the numbers and see if there's been any shift. of any of the numbers since the last debate. We're going into South Carolina this weekend. And then Bernie Sanders dominated everywhere, except for two states on Super Tuesday.
Starting point is 01:05:53 How are things shaping up today, Stu? Well, it's interesting in that there was a movement towards Sanders in South Carolina that had been developing over the past couple of weeks with all of the wins. He basically won Iowa, then won New Hampshire in a close race, then had a blowout win in the first. Nevada. And so the thought was he was going to, you know, gain some steam. It was going to be
Starting point is 01:06:15 close race in South Carolina. You know, Joe Biden has never trailed in a poll of the South Carolina primary. None. He's never trailed in any of them. So this is why they always talk about this being his firewall, because he has a lot of African American voters that he does very well with. So the movement was obviously against Biden. And this was sort of his last stand. Right. As it was seen. A couple of things have happened, though, since in the last week or so. Biden finished second in Nevada, and that was seen as a positive despite the fact that he lost by 26 points. I mean, if you're the vice president for eight years under a popular Democratic president, you probably shouldn't lose by 26 to anybody. But for him, it looked really
Starting point is 01:06:59 good. And this is the thing, the Joe Biden's scale is in effect right now. We've got the curve because you have a 26 point loss that's seen as a positive because he came in second. Then you have a debate performance, which he's been giving so many ones and zeros on one to ten scales, that the fact that he put up like a five was like incredible to people. It looked like he was rejuvenated, he was inspired.
Starting point is 01:07:23 I've never been more sad for an elderly person. Really, in public, I've never, I mean, I couldn't be more sad than that performance. I thought that was my grandpa when they were, you know, saying, hey, we have to take the keys of the car away and you
Starting point is 01:07:40 can't drive anymore. And he was trying to make the case that he was perfectly fine. But every time he was speaking, it kind of made the case that, no, grandpa, you're not fine. And it just kind of really, it was sad. And I felt that was his performance last night. If I was in his family, I would say, stop. Dad, it's time to stop.
Starting point is 01:08:00 Got to stop. You probably should have said that before the primary started, I would say. Yeah. But the fact that he did uncover 150 million gun murders that we did not know. about and that's pretty impressive. Right, it is. Just that's from a detective standpoint, I thought that was impressive. So what has happened in the past couple of weeks is, is increased scrutiny of Sanders. Obviously, you have, you talked about it. You did the big special, Wednesday night special. You can get it at blaishtivy.com slash Glenn and watch the whole thing, but not only
Starting point is 01:08:27 just you from people like Buttigieg and Klobuchar and the Democrats were exposed to a lot of this, hey, he really seems to like Cuba stuff for the first time. That's not stuff that's normally criticize on the left, right? Because the moderate candidate's actually brought it up, people started seeing that a little bit potentially as a they sort of saw Donald Trump with that material
Starting point is 01:08:50 in hand and what that looks like in a general election. And so it's interesting in that the past few days, after a big tightening in the polls in South Carolina, that really has reversed. There was, the last four polls that have come out have Biden
Starting point is 01:09:06 up 15, 7, 7, 18, and today, from a top-ranked pollster at Monmouth, a 20-point lead. In South Carolina. 36 to 16. In South Carolina. Okay. So, I mean, if he's able to pull up anything even remotely close to that, that is going to rejuvenate his campaign and potentially make him the alternative.
Starting point is 01:09:27 The way I've been looking at this race, Glenn, has been South Carolina is kind of Biden's last firewall. He's got one more chance. Yep. And get last stand. If he doesn't win there, it's probably either Bloomberg or, you know, nothing in the way of Sanders. And Bloomberg, obviously, is a terrible choice and has a million of problems of his own, but he does
Starting point is 01:09:44 have the resources in that he doesn't have to necessarily win instantly to stay in the race. You know, Steyer fits that profile as well, but he is expected to probably finish third or fourth in South Carolina, and I don't know how he goes on. So what about Super Tuesday? Are there any polls between now and then that are going to be coming out to see if, because Sanders was dominating. I mean, if Sanders, even if Biden was, even if Biden was. wins in South Carolina.
Starting point is 01:10:10 If Sanders does what he was predicted to do at the beginning of the week all across America for Super Tuesday, he is, you know, 40% there. Yeah, he really is a long way there because he was, all but two states he was projected to win. And I believe that's still the case, though a big Biden win in South Carolina, I think, would change some of that. California is going to be almost definitely Sanders, which is a huge deal, because, Because that's, you know, he's projected to win 222 delegates right now. Only 84 for Biden. So, you know, could that get closer if there's a big win? Very, you know, possibly.
Starting point is 01:10:51 But still, that's a big, big gap. He's going to pick up a lot of delegates there. The other one that's big is Texas. I can't believe this. I just can't believe this. I know. Texas, it is shocking to see, I guess. Texas has right now Sanders as the favorite, but that's tightening.
Starting point is 01:11:08 These latest polls are tightening. I think if Biden can win in South Carolina, he's got a shot at picking up Texas as well. The issue there, though, is the way they do these delegates, and it's a ridiculously complicated system. But the bottom line is, if you don't get 15% in a particular district, you can't, you automatically get zero delegates. So it winds up being that anyone who gets over 15%, they give it away proportionally. So if it's a 40, you know, a 60-40 election, the delegate count isn't that.
Starting point is 01:11:38 much different. You're only going to pick up a few delegates here and there. And if other, the more candidates that get across that threshold, the lower the stakes get in a way. It's a weird system. I don't think it works very well. The Republicans do, if you remember this Glenn from 2016, do a lot of win or take all states where the win is a lot more important because you're picking up this, you know, 60 delegates versus zero. That's not what happens in the Democratic side. When you win, you might win, you know, 43 to 37. And so you're plus six in the delegate count. It's hard to make up differences if you get way behind.
Starting point is 01:12:14 But, you know, if you can keep it close, you have a chance to be able to do that. And right now, it's still relatively close. I mean, you know, Biden, for all of his failures, he's failed in really slow delegate states. What is 538 say about the odds of, you know, nobody going into the convention and with a clear mandate? It's interesting because Sanders after Nevada had picked up and gone above, it had outpaced no one. Contesting convention is essentially no one. No one gets more than half of the delegates. But that's reversed now with I think these latest polls in South Carolina has been a big factor in that.
Starting point is 01:12:53 No one, again, is in first place. I think that is where most people are. Because I think that's where most people are. They're like, no one. No one. I don't want any of these guys. Yeah, I mean, it's not, that's not. what they're saying actually. I mean, but it's just a matter
Starting point is 01:13:08 of they can't decide, right? There's not enough momentum behind one candidate to get Sanders particularly above the 50% threshold. And if they don't get to 50%, you're in a contested convention. Right now, 48% chance of contested convention,
Starting point is 01:13:24 37% chance of Bernie Sanders. Biden is next with 13% chance. Bloomberg at 2 and everyone else is below that. I will say, though, probably the more interesting way of looking at this is looking at it as the plurality of delegates. So who's in the lead?
Starting point is 01:13:40 You might only have 48% of the delegates so you don't get the automatic win. But if Bernie Sanders gets to 48% of the delegates, it's almost definite that he's going to be able to get the nomination if he can get that close. The plurality rating for him is 60. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:54 And then then goodbye. I hope you sold your house already in Milwaukee. But a 65% chance of Sanders winning the plurality of votes. Biden at 26. Bloomberg at 8 and Warren at 1%. So basically, you have a Sanders Biden, Bloomberg, I think, are the only three that have a legitimate argument at this point. It's kind of surprising that Buttigieg showed no strength coming out of those first two states.
Starting point is 01:14:22 I mean, he really is just dissolved and has disappeared. But he does not seem to be part of the picture. Thank you very much, Stu from Washington. He's up there for CPAC. I'll be up there on Saturday. Also, he'll be doing his show. Stu does America, lots of guests from CPAC. You can watch that every night on blazedTV.com.
Starting point is 01:14:41 Election by numbers. All right. Glenn Beck program. I want to, our coronavirus is coming up in just a second. Our update. And I also want to take your phone calls today. We have several people holding right now that have some really good observations and questions, and I want to get to them when we come back.
Starting point is 01:14:59 First, let me tell you about my dog Uno, most stubborn dog in the world. When it came to eating, You literally had to stand there motionless. If you moved, he'd look up at you like, where are you going? And if he thought you were leaving, he would stop eating and he would just follow you. So we'd have to, I mean, we took shifts at this. It was just a nightmare. You'd stand there and you'd wait and you'd be like, come on, eat.
Starting point is 01:15:21 And you'd pick up the food and put some of it in your hand. Come on, go ahead. Eat. It's a, oh, it's yummy, yummy. You practically playing the airplane thing with your dog. It was a nightmare. And every time we would go to the. the vet, they would say, you've got to feed him more.
Starting point is 01:15:36 We're like, we know. We tried every dog food. Then we just started adding vitusmart, rough greens, to his dog food. It was incredible. He snarfed it every night. Then we also started making our own dog food, and it's a different world. We love feeding him now. Literally, we love feeding him now because he is so happy.
Starting point is 01:16:04 Rough greens is not just something that will trick your dog into eating. It is actually really good. It's all of the live nutrients that your dog needs. It's baked out, cooked out of everything that is sitting in a bag or a can. They need those live nutrients just like you need them. It puts the healthy life back into food. It's the only live canine supplement on the market with 25 all natural vitamins. and minerals from fruits and vegetables, 20 digestive enzymes to aid his digestive health,
Starting point is 01:16:40 tons of antioxidants. My vet said, can I see what you're putting into his food? Yeah. She went over and she looked and read the whole thing, went online. She's like, this stuff is fantastic. It's really good for your dog. Roughgreens.com slash Beck. That's RUFF, Roughgreens.com slash Beck.
Starting point is 01:17:00 You can call them at 833, Glenn 33, 833. 3 3, Glen 33, roughgreens.com slash Beck. You're listening to Glenn Beck. You know, one of the things that you can do that we all need to do is educate ourselves. Information is power. The more information you have, the more education you have, the more powerful your arguments can become. We have put out a new book. It comes out, I think, April 7th, 6th or 7th, something like the first week of April.
Starting point is 01:17:39 And it is called Arguing with. socialists. It is in exactly the same format as arguing with idiots. It has about a hundred page of footnotes. So everything in there is footnoted. I ask you, if you use any of these arguments, that you don't ever quote me, because that's an instant loss, quote the New York Times, quote the people that we quote in the book, and quote the communist and the socialist and the democratic socialist themselves that we quote in the book. It's a really fun way to learn about socialism for your kids and for you. It's an easy thing to pass on to friends. It's arguing with Socialists. It'll be out in the bookstores April 7th, but you can get it now
Starting point is 01:18:22 online at Amazon.com. Pre-order right now at Amazon.com. Let me go to our phones and Steve is on the phone. Hello, Steve. Welcome. Hey, Glenn. How you doing? Good. So yesterday afternoon, I learned that my company bid and was accepted to provide a critical service for a Bernie Sanders rally here in Utah on Monday. And I didn't know my boss had bid on it until he told me yesterday, hey, we're doing this. And I was pretty upset. He doesn't understand who Bernie is and just figures it's been a slow month and we can
Starting point is 01:18:54 use the income. Yeah. And so I got off work late last night, watched the recording of your Bernie special. It got me even more worried. My wife was worried about my safety and something like this because the Bernie bros are just so crazy. Yeah. And I'm not worried about that part, but I'm worried about using my talents to make a socialist
Starting point is 01:19:10 look good while he's spreading ideas like that in my community. I'm a professional. I've worked with people I disagree with. Last year, I worked with Obama. Next month is Michelle Obama. And I don't say anything, but this is different. And if I do this job, I feel like I'm actively helping to undermine the U.S. Constitution. And I don't know if I can live with that. I'm just wondering if you have any advice for me. I do, Steve. I would understand feeling, you know, uncomfortable like I don't want to support Elizabeth Warren or Joe Biden or whatever, but you're not. You're doing a professional service because those are the people that are running and they
Starting point is 01:19:46 generally don't hate America. They're not calling for revolution. They will take us in a vastly different direction, but it's different than a communist revolutionary. And you have to make the decision yourself. I know that if I were in your business, I could see myself doing work for people that I disagree with. I could not see myself doing it with Bernie Sanders. I personally agree with your gut, but that's going to come with real consequence, one way or another. But, you know, I really feel like we're living in the times now where, you know, some are going to be persecuted in his name.
Starting point is 01:20:26 And I believe human rights and the Constitution is divinely inspired and comes from God. Those rights come from God. and I think we're all going to be receiving some persecution in his name. It's up to you, Steve, but I think you're on the right track. Brad in Kentucky. Welcome. How are you doing? Good.
Starting point is 01:20:47 How are you going? Very good. Thank you. And watching. Well. There might be 10 or 20 percent it would, but I guess my question is, even if that came to pass, how is he going to enforce it given the fact that the military? The military is vastly isn't going to back it.
Starting point is 01:21:53 And the police, because the police are treated like crap, I'm not left now. Well, remember he's, remember he is the commander in chief, and he will put his people in. And if they don't, he has the right to fire them. Beyond that, you don't want to get into a situation where we're having to choose, do we enforce that law? Let's stay with a constitutionalist. This week, apparently, everybody is suddenly concerned about coronavirus. Good news for, for you is we have been on it. If you've been listening to this program, you're probably not as panicked as everyone else who's just starting to pay attention to it.
Starting point is 01:22:33 Every day at this time until this fear passes, we will be giving you our coronavirus update. A lot of information, new information has come out, and the case numbers have changed. And how prepared are we really? How much testing have we done here in the United States? What is the status of our testing? All on the coronavirus update next. This is the Glimbeck program. You remember back in the old days,
Starting point is 01:23:08 home security men having, you know, a dog in the living room and a shotgun by your bedside. Times were a little simpler back then, although I have to tell you, I still have a shotgun by my bed and a dog at my feet. It was a shame, for instance. You know, that time we blasted Ted from next door to Kingdom Come because he was trying to put the phone book.
Starting point is 01:23:28 that we had left in the driveway through the mail slot. Didn't mean for that to happen. Ted's family really always be sorry about it. Think about Ted every day.

Starting point is 01:24:38 It's simplysafebeck.com. Our coronavirus update for Thursday. All of these stats are as of 5.30 a.m. Central time. Total confirmed cases, 82,585. That's up 1,322. from the 8100 yesterday. Total deaths are up 114 to 2,814. 51 countries now have confirmed cases that's up from 43 yesterday. Another 13 countries have suspected cases. 18% of the active confirmed cases are considered serious or critical, requiring hospitalization or ICU. That is down one percentage. point. And there are 60 confirmed cases in the U.S. and zero deaths. Now, as of this morning,
Starting point is 01:25:39 we do have 60 confirmed cases here within our own borders. Reports from NBC and other sources indicate tens of thousands of Americans, though, are in self-quarantine at the suggestion or request of local governments. These are all volunteers that are self-sequestering themselves. According to the CDC's own website, however, we have actually only tested 445 people for COVID-19, that's SARS co-v number two, with the 16 confirmed to have it. So let me say that again. So far, we have only used the test on 445 people. 16 have confirmed to have had it. South Korea has tested 37,000 citizens and found 1,76 cases, including 505 new cases since yesterday. It seems the more people they test, the more cases they discover.
Starting point is 01:26:43 Italy has tested 22,350 and have found 528 cases. According to the CDC's website, and confirmed by NBC News today, the U.S. has only actually tested those 445 people. So about 5% of Americans, if actually tested, may get a confirmation that they have COVID-19. As of this morning, however, only 12 labs in the U.S. are capable of performing positive tests for COVID-19. Now, two days ago, that number was only five. So that's why we're testing so few people. Now, here's the good news. The good news is the government is on it and shipping these tests out
Starting point is 01:27:37 and major hospitals have the ability to make their own tests for it. Just nobody has had it yet. The CDC now admits that 47 states and 30 overseas embassies and military bases were sent 55,000 test kits over the last two weeks. But they were all recalled because they were faulty. New kits have been sent and should arrive in all of the U.S. labs and hospitals today or tomorrow, upping testing capacity to over 20 states by this time tomorrow. Other experts are concerned that the CDC's policy has been to only test people who both had risk of exposure,
Starting point is 01:28:23 travel to Korea or China, and were showing symptoms, despite the fact, that a disease has a 14-plus-day incubation period and is contagious even without the symptoms. President Trump yesterday insisted in his press conference that we are testing everyone who needs to be tested. When asked about the low rate of testing, he said not all experts agree. Now, we have the first community case of coronavirus, meaning one that does not. have any connection or known connection to China-related exposure. They've been in the hospital nine days before they were tested. UC Davis Hospital requested a COVID-19 testing kit on 219, but it was declined by the CDC.
Starting point is 01:29:16 Virologists indicate this makes it virtually impossible now to determine the spread risk, because without knowing who is infected, we can't determine who's come into contact with the It's like trying to solve a mystery without having access to any of the clues. Local governments now are monitoring hundreds of suspected cases that have not been formally tested due to the lack of testing kits. Again, those testing kits should be available in 20 states by this time tomorrow and all of the states by next week. Now, there's some very risky misconceptions about the coronavirus that we just don't know. yet. Scientists are now warning that there is a very strong misconception because this is the way the
Starting point is 01:30:06 flu usually is, but it is not this way in coronavirus. And that serious misconception is that once you'd been given the viral infection, you're immune. It's called the chickenpox myth. You used to, you know, give people a little bit of the chicken pox, the kids, and it makes you immune. It's it's why we can create some sort of a, um, uh, a shot for a flu shot. Did you get your flu shot? Did you get immunized yet for your flu? Well, we can only create that because once you have it, your antibodies start to grow and then you have a real resistance post infection. Unfortunately, that is not true with, um, what is that? Do you pronounce? Is it mirror? the M-E-R-S,
Starting point is 01:30:59 Mears, yeah. Yeah, mares disease or SARS-1, where most recovered patients show little antibody response post-infection, and therefore reinfection is the risk of that is really high. Early studies indicate that reinfection risk with SARS-COVID2 coronavirus is also very high. And the mortality rate for reinfection is as high as 30%. So if you get it once and you're re-infected, your mortality rate can go from 1% to 30%. China and Japan today have just confirmed recovered patients are becoming reinfected with COVID-19.
Starting point is 01:31:46 The body cannot fight it. Another misconception that since the risk appears to be relatively low for younger people, you shouldn't worry about any kind of preventive measures. I have always been someone that has spoken up against antibacterial soap, you know, as a regular run course of events in your life. It just weakens your system putting antibacterial soap into your body because most of the germs you can handle. So everything generally speaking that you touch every day, your body should be strong enough to fight. it and by using antibacterial soap it makes the bacteria even stronger and your body weaker however with that being said everyone should have antibacterial soap with them in their purse in their
Starting point is 01:32:39 pocket on their desk you should constantly when you touch something shake somebody's hands you should be using antibacterial soap you should be washing your hands a lot now this this dismisses if you're if you are looking and saying well this is just you know this is fine for younger people and I've only got young kids etc etc you have to take the precautions because you will be a carrier of this you can pass this disease to higher risk people the elderly it also ignores the risk that this virus will mutate inside of your body and the more infected people there are, the overall chances go way up that the virus will mutate into something even more deadly. With all of this being said, I want you to remember that this is a flu. We are still fighting the
Starting point is 01:33:39 Spanish flu. Every single year, the flu season, you get your flu shot. That is the remnant of the Spanish flu that was introduced in 1918. That was the last pandemic. We hope that this spring things will start to calm down, but I have news on that coming in just a second. The travel restrictions now, and I urge you, don't cancel your plans until the last minute. I know somebody that was going to Disney World today. They canceled their trip yesterday. You don't know this could get much better in the weeks to come. It could be much worse in the weeks to come.
Starting point is 01:34:22 but if you're canceling now, just give you the example. People who canceled their trip to Italy on, uh, what Monday, they paid a penalty. By the next day, uh,
Starting point is 01:34:39 uh, what's the name of the airline, Italia airlines decided that they were going to remove all restrictions. So there are penalties and everything else that will apply now, wait before you have to. to go before you make any decisions. Travel restrictions now more than 50 countries have active travel restrictions or warnings to China. More than 20 countries have travel restrictions or warnings to Korea, Japan, Italy, and Iran. Now, there goes my Iran trip. Over 60% of confirmed cases in Europe
Starting point is 01:35:13 involve travel to Italy. Eight countries now have closed their borders with Italy. Now, the summer. Summer tends to make the flu season stop. Summer also tends to reduce people clustering indoors out of the cold weather, which likely increases the rate of the spread of viruses and colds. However, scientists warn on this one, we don't know yet. With mares, another coronavirus, that occurred in August and September in the Middle East. that's very hot and very dry then. The swine flu of 2009, another novel virus viral infection, another cautionary tale.
Starting point is 01:36:05 It spread during summer months because there was no herd immunity. It's generally the combination of herd immunity, a virus we've faced before and have developed some immunity to, which we don't have. plus summer conditions that slow seasonal flu. Summer conditions, we're not gathering indoors. The virus here. This one, when it is exposed to chlorine or bleach, it takes 24 seconds to kill COVID-19. UV rays, it takes two seconds.
Starting point is 01:36:48 So sunlight is the best disinfectant on this. but we don't have, we don't believe, any herd immunity. So we don't know what is going to happen. You'll be able to get all of the numbers and all of the latest information every day at this time on this broadcast. We will start peeling these off and putting them into our Glenn Beck feed. You'll be able to hear this on the show if you just download the Glenbeck podcast, wherever you get your podcast. But if you get into our RSS feed, we're also going to try.
Starting point is 01:37:23 try to peel this off so you can have access to this easily every single day. I urge you to listen to it because knowledge is power. All right. We don't know what is going to happen. You know, it's not going to be the next black death. And I don't think it's going to be the next, you know, Spanish flu. However, it is doing a number on our markets. We have been down a thousand points this morning.
Starting point is 01:37:55 we're now currently at 439. Where it closes, as anybody's guess, it's like Russian roulette. I don't know. The impact on the markets and the impact on our stores and our economy, if it doesn't hit us as hard this year, next flu season could be really, really bad.

Starting point is 01:39:37 So did it cross your mind at all? You're going to CPAC. We both are going to CPAC, and that's a large crowd of people coming from all over. Yes. We saw in the airports, lots of masks. Did you? There's a lot of people in masks. My understanding is that's not really effective, the typical surgical mask, right, Glenn?
Starting point is 01:39:57 No, you need an N95 mask. N95. Or above, right? Yes, or above. So, and those are. sold out everywhere. You go just for the fun of it. Search for N95 mask on Google or
Starting point is 01:40:10 Amazon or something. It's just all out of stock, out of stock, out of stock. Or they're like $190 a piece. It's funny to see. My wife is in full-fledged panic, I would say at this point. I think she's listening now because she must be listening to your scary updates, which is why she's terrified all the time. I want to thank you
Starting point is 01:40:26 for that. You shouldn't be terrified. That update is, I mean, we're trying to make it really. It's even scary behind it. It's the logo, it's the theme of the show. But it did. I know it sounds scary to me. It sounds scary to me. It sounds scary to everybody.
Starting point is 01:40:42 Please. Do you play the theme for the coronavirus? This is scary music? Yes, listen to this. Not this part. See that little like siren thing in the background? It's like, alert. Alert.
Starting point is 01:40:56 Just jump off a building. Don't deal with the pain of the coronavirus. Well, it is important. It's important. I don't think it's saying. No, it is. All right. ahead.
Starting point is 01:41:06 So, it's saying get to the edge and then just get your, your, close your eyes off the edge and just wait. And just at any point you need to jump. Just lean. Just lean forward. Close your eyes. Lean. Okay. Well, I'm glad.
Starting point is 01:41:18 She's in complete panic. And she doesn't hear any of the parts of your updates that say, don't panic. That's the only part she doesn't hear. All the rest of the parts she hears very well. And then so she panics. And then she calls me and texts me about how she doesn't want to leave the house for the next six months. And I keep telling her, it's like, look, you have to be. You have to understand, I think, like, the most immediate impacts, right, is the economy, as we're seeing this now, which is a major, major deal.
Starting point is 01:41:41 Not to mention that a socialist might be the alternative to this president, which makes it really scary. Yeah. In addition to that, you have things like potential quarantine or travel restriction. That is something that we're not used to experiencing in any way here in the United States. We don't know that that's happening, but it's certainly on the table. I mean, but look, you know, 61,000 people died in the United States. this country from the regular flu, the one you were just talking about, the typical one, and only about half of people get the actual flu vaccine. So if you don't get that, in a way,
Starting point is 01:42:18 you're facing the same type of thing because while it does look like the death rate is higher now than the other flu, it's also completely inflated. And you've talked about this because of the situation where we don't know how many victims are. We know. We know. how many people are dying, you don't miss those people, but you are missing people who are infected with the virus, and obviously something like 77% of countries don't even have the ability to test for it yet.
Starting point is 01:42:44 So we don't know how many, we know there's a lot more victims than have been reported as far as capturing it, and actually having the virus. I mean, I bet there are people in the hospital. I bet there are people in the hospital right now in America that may have COVID-19, but we just think they have the regular
Starting point is 01:43:00 seasonal flu. You know what I mean? Without the term... It's very likely. You don't know. You don't know. And my wife was like, I should send me a text yesterday. She's like, I'm seeing this now. It's popping up in a country, you know, we're going to go visit. And I'm like, yeah, but it's here too.
Starting point is 01:43:16 You already live here. Yeah, I know, I know. It's already in America. They're closing access to that country. The countries are going to self-regulate. And so will any businesses and airlines and cruise ships and everything. You're listening to Glenn. Just don't panic.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Somewhere in America, within the sound of my voice, there is a man sitting on top of his horse, staring out of the vast waving plane at grass that's dotted by moving masses of cattle, which are his ward. He holds the rain, his arms bound by the sinew and muscle of time and hard work, and around him he feels the great yawning silence of the land to send upon him, and he smiles. Sometimes the life of a cowboy can be lonely, but sometimes it's nice to be alone. just you and nature and God. He rests atop that mount figure of integrity and timeless wisdom.

Starting point is 01:45:05 but I may have thrown away that story about Romney. Romney is now saying America is just... Here it is. Romney. I'm very disappointed in the degree to which we prepared for a pandemic, both in terms of protective equipment and in terms of medical devices that would help people once they're infected. At this stage, I think we're substantially under-investigating
Starting point is 01:45:33 in what would be appropriate for a setting which could be serious. We don't know what the future holds. Okay, well, Romney, what? is the number? I mean, uh, it was 2.5 plus billion dollars. That's what Trump did. Some Democrats are saying eight billion. Some are saying 10 billion. Some are saying four billion. Well, what's the number? You got, you got three and a half. What's the number? And who's deciding the number? Can we stop making this about politics, please? I mean, this is going to affect Republicans, Democrats, independence. It's going to
Starting point is 01:46:12 affect illegal aliens. People who are here legally. People who were born here. Native Americans, black, white, people all over the world. Nobody wants to hear your stupid politics. Give me a number, Mitt. Tell me what the number should be.
Starting point is 01:46:29 Mitt. Romney. Now, here's another update for you. Stu, I want you to pay attention to this. Oh, okay. I wasn't paying attention to the Romney story. but I'll pay attention to this one. I mean, why would you pay attention to Romney? I don't even understand the point.
Starting point is 01:46:50 I mean, of course, obviously, you'd want to be better prepared for every situation. They did a test a couple of years ago. We were the number one most prepared country in the world. Although still, I think there's a lot of holes shown in that test, and then we'd be better if we were prepared for more. You know, it's crazy. I mean, they're adding money as they go.
Starting point is 01:47:10 That's probably a smart way to go. If they need an extra couple billion dollars, they'll go back and get it. Get it. Do you need to get all up front? I mean, what's really crazy is, do you know anybody who's more prepared than me? Because I do, but do you? For any kind of...
Starting point is 01:47:24 I mean, I don't think so, no. I have a home surgery kit, okay? I have an actual surgery kit. Hey, what? Oh, yeah. A home surgery kit? Who's going to do the surgery? Well, I got a book.
Starting point is 01:47:40 It's a kid. You know, Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd and spies like us? I mean, it's like if reading the book as you go. Yeah, it's like, you know, if somebody, if everything broke down and you had somebody with appendicitis, what are you going to do? Give me a steak knife. I don't know what to do. Even if I cut you open, I don't want to do. I'm telling you I don't want to use it.
Starting point is 01:48:00 I'm telling you if you're with me and you're the one with appendicitis, you should say, let it burst. But if you really want somebody to try, I got a book and I got the tools. Okay. So I'm prepared in spooky ways. In spooky ways. Yes. I can guarantee you right now, I'm not prepared. I've, in my head, I have already said, I, you know what? I talked to somebody yesterday who was even more of a prepper than me. And he was like, God, you have that? And I'm like, oh, crap. No, I didn't think about that. I should get one of those. Well, they're gone now. I mean, no one is prepared because this is an emergency that you don't know what's going to happen. You don't know how it's going to happen. You don't know what it is. You're generally prepared for anything.
Starting point is 01:48:48 But you're not specifically prepared for one thing. Does that make sense? Yeah, of course. That's the problem. I mean, because a lot of people get into these things. If you've ever watched those reality shows with like the preppers where they have every single, you know, they've got the bunkers and they've got tons and tons of food storage, like 20 years of food storage and all that stuff, you know, there are uses for all of that.
Starting point is 01:49:10 But you never know which one of these things is going to. to happen. And so you just try to do your best to knock out the low-hanging fruit. Having food on hand is an obvious one. Having water on hand is an obvious one. Like I don't have a bio-containment tent. Oh, I, of course have that. Oh, you have that? Oh, my gosh. Wow. You've totally screwed. You're totally screwed. I mean, but if I were preparing for this specifically 10 years ago, I would have had a bio-containment, I mean, I don't even know if they make them, but I would have done that. But you don't know what's coming. We just figured this one out.
Starting point is 01:49:47 It's crazy. And they haven't even figured it out yet. We don't even have a vaccine for it. If everyone was prepared for these things, you knew they were coming, it would have been done a long time ago. Let me just say this. It's impossible to know.
Starting point is 01:49:56 It's why it's a big deal. Let me just say this. Romney. All right. I'm going to make you feel good. Let's say you haven't done anything to prepare for any kind of disaster. I'm going to make you feel good about your. yourself because this one I'm guessing I'm guessing this one you already have down the Chinese government
Starting point is 01:50:19 has come out and they are proposing they haven't done it yet but they are proposing a ban on eating dogs and no all dogs all dogs are saying don't eat a dog and now it's not official but I've already got this down. I mean, I am, I'm, I'm the, I'm the, you know, a prepper general for the United States. If that's the standard, I've never eaten a dog. I've never even had a desire to eat a dog. I would tell you before the coronavirus, don't eat a dog. So, well, that is really prepared.
Starting point is 01:51:01 Now, do they mean everything like, is it like dog broth? You can have dog broth. No, no dog, nothing dog. No, it's got dog in the time. It's got dog in the type. don't eat it hot dog well that's not technically a dog so uh and i see what you're saying yeah yeah i'm pretty sure well in china no maybe not now the ban now tell me if you notice something here the ban also could they haven't finalized it yet they're proposing it could also extend to
Starting point is 01:51:33 snakes frogs and turtle meat i'm i is there anything left. What are you supposed to eat? You notice anything? That's the four food groups. Dog. You know, dog, turtle meat, frog, snakes. I mean, what else is there left?
Starting point is 01:51:54 Here's what's left. Bats! They don't include in the band, freaking bats. How is that possible? I'm reading this and I'm like, okay, they're going to get to bats. They're going to get, they didn't get to bats. They didn't get to bats.
Starting point is 01:52:10 What does that mean? I mean, because I know you had said at one point, the initial diagnosis that it came from bat soup made from that particular market looks like it was not. It had been ruled out as the actual cause of this thing, right? Yeah. It did not come from that market. Somebody brought it in to that market. So it didn't come from a bat.
Starting point is 01:52:31 At least in that market. It could have been from bat soup. Right. Okay. So someone could have made bat soup at home previously, then brought it to the market after they caught it. Right. And then infected other people who were just like, I don't know. I'm just, I've sworn off bat for a long time. I just want turtle soup. Okay. So we don't, we don't know exactly. You know, it's so weird. It's so weird. You know what's really frightening is, I was doing an interview with a guy who was over in China. And I asked him, I said, so, I mean, what's it going to take to shut down these markets where they're selling bats? And he said, you know, it's not the.
Starting point is 01:53:10 bat, the bat's getting a very bad name. And I'm like, when did bats have a good name? But he said, it's not literally are vampires that have turned into, like they're normally sucking blood. I don't know when they turn into these bats. I don't know anybody that likes bats. I mean, I'm up, I'm up at my ranch and I have a bat problem, okay, which is not really a problem.
Starting point is 01:53:36 I just don't want them around me, but they eat mosquitoes. They're important part of the, you know, circle of life. They eat mosquitoes, eat bugs, and so it's really good. I just don't want them nesting in my, in my house. So they go up in between the boards of my house. And, you know, we heard. And I'm like, what the hell is that? I don't, I don't know, but I don't like it.
Starting point is 01:54:04 Okay. We took off the, you know, the cladding of the house and just took off, just a little bit, just to peek in, it was a sea of thousands of bats, thousands of them. I should post the video of it. They flew out like it was a scene from Batman. You remember when he's in the well at the very beginning
Starting point is 01:54:28 and the bats are like, it was like that. And I'm there with guys who are, you know, you know, 60 years hard living on the farm and guys who flew helicopters in the Gulf War and they're just like, men, we all were screaming like 12-year-old girls. Ah, bats! They've never had a good name. Never.
Starting point is 01:54:54 Was your mouth just watering when you saw all those bats? Oh, I thought the soup is going to be. So anyway, I'm talking to this guy about bats, and I'm like, when, you know, what's a deal with the bad soup? And he's like, bats get a bad name and it shouldn't have a bad name. It's not the bad. It's these markets. I'm like, what do you mean is these markets?
Starting point is 01:55:10 He said, have you ever been? No, I've never been to a Chinese market where they're selling bats. You don't even, you do it. That should automatically be something that says to you, don't go in here. So he said these markets are crazy. He said they'll have camels and bats and lizards that you've never seen before and all these different animals. And they're all on cages on top of each other.
Starting point is 01:55:37 so like they're all pooping on each other and they're all pooping in each other's food and so that's how these things are mixed and he's like they got to do something about these and I'm like yeah they should they probably should you know they probably should close those down and he said well you know we have those in America what where what what what where do we we don't have those in America he's like oh yeah they've got them in Florida and, you know, I expect in New Orleans. I mean, if you're going to find something creepy, of course it's in New Orleans, right? Okay.
Starting point is 01:56:14 He didn't tell me that they were in New Orleans, but I'm expecting that they would be in New Orleans. There's one reason why you don't go to New Orleans. You know, they've got some weird, creepy thing and probably a person in the cage underneath the camel, you know, eating its food with camel poop. You don't know it's creepy, it's New Orleans. But we have them in like normal non-New Orleans styles. cities. Really?
Starting point is 01:56:39 Yeah. Because don't they have like in New York, don't they have that kind of section where they It's called Chinatown. Is it China town? It's called Chinatown. Is it where they have like animals kind of just like hanging in the windows and stuff. I don't know getting to walk down the streets. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:54 It's weird. It's really. China Town is really weird. If you're ever on a diet, just go to Chinatown. You're like, never going to eat again. I don't know. Nope. Not going to eat.
Starting point is 01:57:06 now because it's creepy. But those animals are all dead. Where do we have these these, I don't know, weird markets with weird monkey bat kind of cages all stacked on top of each other in America? We need to find them
Starting point is 01:57:24 and suggest that we shut them down. That's a really kind of you know, I don't know, 12th century idea. Yeah, and they actually call them wet markets too, which is just a terrible name for what you've just described. Like, I, just, they're peeing on each other.
Starting point is 01:57:43 It's just like, it's like, yeah, you know, again, when I say a 12th century idea, I don't mean the cages. I mean in the 12th century, somebody went around and went, okay, all right, enough. This is unhealthy. It was a 12th century when they started shutting those things down. Can we not? Please, please recognize that all cultural aspects are not all good. All right.
Starting point is 01:58:07 By the way, advice from the CDC, men should start cutting their beards. They're saying that, you know, this bacteria could live in your beard or something, so you should start cutting your beard. That's what they're saying today. That was the advice. I don't know if that's from, you know, some anti-beard group or what. But if you are shaving, shave secret is the way you should shave. You know, when you shave, I don't know about you, but man, I get a rash on my neck and it hurts to shave. But if you're using shave secret, that is a proprietary blend of essential oils that you just put three to five drops on your hand.
Starting point is 01:58:48 You use so little of this. And you have a wet hand, you put it in there, and then you work it into your beard or ladies on your legs. And you don't need expensive shavers or anything else. It just glides over your face. and it stops the ingrown hairs and the shaving rash and all of that stuff. It's really great. Now, you can get these regionally at H.E.B. or Wegman's grocery store.
Starting point is 01:59:12 You can also get it at Walmart. They're available online at Amazon. But if you go online, get it at shavesecret.com. Use the promo code Beck on their website, and you'll get a 10% discount. It's shavesecret.com. If you are somebody that shaves every day, I'm telling you this will really save your face or your legs, it's shavesecret.com. Use the promo code back.
Starting point is 01:59:35 Shavesecret.com. Is the Glimbeck program. You know, I find the, I find just the divine timing of restoring the covenant in July 4th in Gettysburg. I find it amazing because I think what we're headed for is profound evil. If you missed my special last night on Bernie Sanders and who's actually behind him, profound evil. The
Starting point is 02:00:11 shutting down of human rights and, you know, if you don't agree, we'll kill you. That's what's really behind Bernie Sanders. And I know that is an outrageous thing to say, but I can back it up and I do on the special. It's available for on demand right now at blazedtv.com slash glen.
Starting point is 02:00:33 You must understand what you're dealing with. So we're profound evil, but we're also going to receive a humbling. I think the coronavirus, whether is this year or next year, a great humbling is coming for the entire world. We have, for the first time, the world is seeing the number two manufacturing country and workforce, the number two shipping and logistics country, and the number two consumer. in the world go down, lights out. That's never happened before. This year or probably next year, there's a chance that number two and number one go out.
Starting point is 02:01:18 When that happens, the whole thing changes. Everything changes. And I think we're headed for a great humbling, and we are doing something called restoring the covenant. It has only been done three times in American history, and it is actually taking a covenant with God and saying we will obey you, we will listen to you, we will be your people. Will you please give us your veil of protection? That's happening in the sacred spot of Gettysburg on July 4th. It's going to be a once in a generation or two event. Find it all out at glenbeck.com.
