The Blaze Radio Network On demand. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck. State mandated murder. That's the only way to describe it. This is exactly what is happening in the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom, England, is now mandating murder of a child.

Alfie Evans. 23-month-old boy who is now defying his doctors and his government by doing what none of them thought was possible. Staying alive. Whatever you're doing right now, I want you just to stop and say a prayer if you're able. Yes, I know, thoughts and prayers.

God is powerful. God is active in our lives. Alfie Evans is living proof. If you don't know, Who Alfie is. He is a, he's a little boy and went in the hospital into government care. Doctors couldn't find out what was wrong with him. They still don't have any idea.

But he is opening his eyes. He is smiling at his parents. They've decided that he needs to die. The Pope has said, no, no, no, we'll take him. The parents have said, we'll take him elsewhere. But listen what's been going on in the past 48 hours. A little over a day and a half ago, the U.K. court system ordered that Alfie could no longer receive medical care and had to be taken off of life support. Do you remember when people mocked us about death panels?

This is what we said. This is the death panel. His parents have been watching in horror as they disconnected their son's breathing tube. and then they denied him food and water. Remember when we said, you can't do this to Terry Shivo? Not giving water and food. That's not life support.

That's basic humanity. The doctors have done everything in their power to make sure they have killed this baby. The doctors. Let's not just push it off onto the government. The doctors are complying. The doctors are complying. The doctors predicted Alfie would die within minutes because, you know, doctors know best.

A half an hour went by, then a full hour, then another hour, then another, then another, then another, then another. A miracle was happening. Alfie Evans was breathing on his own. He's fighting for his life. His parents were ecstatic. The doctors, quote, were, God smacked. I can't explain it. We don't know what we're seeing.

But despite that, it still took sense. Six whole hours for Alfie's parents to convince his doctors to give him some water. Six hours of the parents begging the doctors to give the baby a little relief with a little bit of drinking water. What are we turning into? Alfie's parents were granted an emergency hearing. The situation had obviously changed. The Italian government has granted Alfie. full citizenship. The Italian government has offered to take over all medical care, an air

transport, a helicopter is sitting at the hospital waiting for the word to fly him and his parents to a Vatican hospital. Everything is ready. It all hinged on an emergency hearing. The decision came down yesterday. The judge has doubled down and denied Alfie's transport to Italy. Why? Why? What has this child done that he is so dangerous to the people of the UK? You won't arrest terrorists, but you will starve a little boy to death. Why? It's not going to cost you anything. Oh, but that's the point, you see. It costs the state something, with a far higher price than they're willing to pay. This is state-mandated murder. There's no other way to describe it. Alfie has already showed that he doesn't need the life support. A miracle is

possible. His parents clearly want their son to live. They're now having to resort to giving Alfie mouth to mouth because the hospital won't allow any oxygen to be given to the kid. This isn't a case of a hospital bypassing a parent's wishes to do a medical procedure that would ensure survival. This is a case of a hospital bypassing a parent's wishes to ensure death. They are killing him as much as Hitler's T4 program. If you don't want to be responsible for Alfie's care, that's fine. fine, but why legally block his care from someplace else? The answer seems all too obvious.

It's the same reason the UK government recently jailed a man for flipping off a traffic camera. They put him in jail because he flipped off a traffic camera. Now why would they do that? Because the all-powerful state needs to show their people that, A, they can. and B, I'll show you who's in charge. There's no reason to deny a baby it's God-given right to live. None. All men are created equal and endowed by their creator certain inalienable,

unchangeable rights. If this isn't a reason why we broke away from the United Kingdom, I don't know what is. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. life. I have a right to live, and no king can take that away. It's my God-given right. I wish we had some moral authority to talk about this, but we as a nation don't. The UKIP party made a statement, summed it all pretty perfectly. They said this decision was, quote, a gateway to totalitarianism.

Really? You think? I remember being mocked when I was on Fox and warning about death panels. Mocked. Called crazy. Called a conspiracy theorist. Drag through the mud. Gateway to totalitarianism. It is totalitarianism. The minute, the minute a state can make the decision for you on whether you or your children live or die, there is no greater tyrant. The adoption of single-payer health care is the actual gateway.

There is no greater power. This is just an example of what is possible under that system. A totalitarian government is willing to put you in your place. Sit down. We control who lives. We control who dies. They have become God. they'll put you in jail for carrying a screwdriver.

They'll fine and jail you for making a Facebook post. They'll brag all about catching the guy flipping off a traffic camera. And the one too horrible that nobody wants to look at is how they are euthanizing a helpless child. As of this hour, little Alfie is still fighting. for his life. The Pope still has the helicopter waiting at the hospital. His parents are praying for a miracle. He's denying his government. He's defying the tyrants. He's defying all odds. The foolish are confusing. The elite doctors. No matter what you're doing right now,

stop for just a second and pray for a miracle. It's Wednesday, April 25th. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. The West is dead. The West is dead if we don't wake up as Americans. This is why we came here. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This is why we came here.

We're going down the same road. And if America doesn't, doesn't wake up, the West and the American experiment is over. I don't know what's happening. What's happening to our cousins? What's happening to the country we are the closest to? We are literal brothers and sisters of England. That's where we came.

We broke away because of a tight. They are becoming more tyrannical by the day. Guns weren't good enough, so now we're banning knives. There are warnings if you want to buy silverware. There are warnings on the silverware. They're doing random checks just stopping people in the street, searching them for weapons. Weapons that include screwdrivers.

We're not even talking box cutters. Remember how crazy box cutters? Box cutters are everywhere, yes, but not on an airplane. Then we got down to the nail file. You can't walk around with anything that could be used as a weapon. I seem to remember a famous murder using the jaw of an ass. When you can use the jawbone of a donkey to kill someone, I don't know, pretty much everything is a weapon.

What is happening? America, please do not turn a blind's eye to Alfie Evans. Please, because it's coming here. This is what death panels do. This is what it looks like. It's not some conspiracy. It's what it looks like. when the government can say, I'm paying the bill, they make the decision.

And it's all fine and dandy until it happens to you or your children. This is the result of universal health care. This is the result of universal basic income. This is the result of, I'm going to make sure everyone has a job. I'm going to make sure everybody, everyone has health care. When you do that, you then have to control the population that doesn't want it, that wants out. And the only way to do that is to do what Winston Churchill called an iron curtain. You have to put an iron curtain up.

you know there are so many people that don't want to build a wall around America and you know after seeing what's happening in the UK I may join them I'm not

talking about my fear of bad guys coming in if we keep headed down this direction I fear that good guys may not be able to get out I want to talk to you about American financing.

Glenn, Beck, Mercury. See, you know, there's a nice little caveat that maybe we should put into the Constitution. Enjoyment of the rights and freedoms of citizens must not be a detriment of the interests of the society or the state. You know, I think that's a pretty good idea. For instance, freedom of expression can be suspended if the exercise of that freedom fails to be in accord with policies. I think it's good. That sounds pretty good. I'm getting these from, you know, I'm getting these from the Constitution of the Soviet Union, which, you know, it's no big deal.

Didn't we already? But isn't that what? Isn't that where we're headed? Mm-hmm. It does. I mean, it does seem like that path that we're on. You know, when you look at this, I mean, again, this was so jarring about the story. If we were doing this story about a kid in Iran or North Korea or outer Mongolia, it would still be tragic. It would still be horrible. But at least it would have some sensibility in the way we would. we understand the world. These are our closest allies. These are people that are supposed to

share our sensibilities. And this is the second time they just murdered a baby for no reason. Well, but last time he was in a vegetative state. This one is in a semi-vegetative state. You're going the wrong way on that one. Although I will be, to be fair,

Glenn, we haven't even addressed the counter arguments here. I know I woke up today and I was like, well, what about where are the people talking about the ethics, medical ethics here? Well, now have that. Dominic Wilkinson, Professor of Medical Ethics was commenting on this case. He said,

I don't know the professionals at this hospital personally, the professionals. But I know from working in intensive care and my contact with other professionals in similar situations that this will have taken an enormous personal toll on these professionals. They, Glenn, months ago, made a very difficult decision.

The easiest path would have been to continue doing what this child's parents were requesting to go along with them. But actually, they couldn't in good conscience do that. Oh, this is kerbils, man. The bravery. You know, this is what this is exactly what they said with the T4 program in Germany. And once you get people to start thinking this way, the doctors led the way in Germany.

It was the doctors and the good nurses. They led the way. Once you take and cross this line, it's over. It's over. Asked whether doctors had made the wrong decision to withdraw the child's life support. This professor of medical ethics said, It's very understandable why his parents feel that way. You think?

Yeah, it's very understandable. To put this in context, when people have life support, it's supporting their life, but it's not living for them. When doctors make the very difficult decision, You see who's always the victim here? The doctors, the professionals. When they make the difficult decision to take the machines away because they feel it's not helping or doing more harm than good,

that doesn't mean that life ends. Yeah, it kind of does in this particular case. But you notice they're not giving him life support. No. This is something out. Okay, life support, breathing machines. Okay. Food and water is not life support.

And they're not even, I mean, they're asking for just treatment to be transported somewhere else where they can be. treat it. It's not just about breathing machines here. It's, it's incomprehensive. Can't do it. The people versus the state. If the state decides they're going to win, they win. Glenn Beck, Mercury. This is the Glenn Beck program. So glad that you were listening today. I want to remind you that Mercury One is now taking applications for their leadership training program. Mercury1.org slash LTP is where you can go and sign up. There's a two-week session.

This is for anybody who is, I think, 18 to 24 or 25 years old. Let me just check here. Yeah, 18 to 25 years old. What you're going to do is research on the original historic documents from our, we have just an incredible collection of documents. And you will be getting hands-on to these documents. You're going to be shown how to research, how to find the answers using original sources.

And you're going to be getting incredible history lessons from David Barton and his son. And the first session starts May 28th. The second is June 11th. The third week session is July 9th. You have to apply. Not everybody is taken. You do have to pay for your airfare and, you know, hotel and everything else. It's at Mercury1.org slash LTP.

Make sure that you sign up or tell your kids so they can sign up. All right, we're talking about Alfie Evans in England. We have Jim in Georgia, who's a vet. Hello, Jim. Hello, are you there? Yes, Glenn. I'm here. Yeah, what's happening, Jim?

I'm sorry. That's okay. I'm a disabled vet. Yeah, oh, yeah. I'm a disabled vet. You want to talk about death panels and the way that the government can take control of your own health care. That's exactly what the VA has done to us vets. They've taken across the board, they've taken all the vet off of the opioids, even if it hurts them.

I understand that, you know, there's people that have issues with the pain meds. But, I mean, I've got a pain pump installed into my opioids. body, I got a drop of morphine every six seconds. They're taking that away from me. What? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's just normal. They say it's CBT therapy.

It's in our heads and everything else. They started this in the Gulf War. Oh, my gosh. Man. They started that, and they've been doing it to Vietnam veterans for years. But when people want to see a one-payer system, tell them to turn around, look at the VA. That's what we're going to. They tell us what we can have, when we can have it.

even if it can help us or if it'll hurt us. The other day I was trying to get some help with sleep, the sleep clinic. They told me that sleep is a want, not a need. Wait a minute, I don't think I've heard that one before. Yeah. Sleep is a want, not a need. That's what I thought. I know it's a need.

You can die from not having enough sleep. People just turn around. Type in VA and Google. Yeah. And look what they're doing to us. Thank you so much. And I'm hoping this administration actually appoint somebody this time that will change the VA. Doc in Florida quickly.

Hello. To stand up to it are met with hostility, met with basically administrations running doctors out. The families have hardened their hearts as well and attempts to simply ask people like, let's give your grandma a few more days to see if they wake up and we'll ask them if they want the breathing tube. removed, are met with a hostility by some family members, not all, having you in the back and trying to end your career. You say this is routinely happening? Yes, this is routinely happening.

Now, I see patients with completely survivable brain hemorrhages that, you know, a few years ago, we would just routinely take care of them, and they'd walk into my office a few months later. Now, within a day or two, people who are completely not qualified, not in the proper specialty, come and give improper prognosis, hoping to save money for the hospital under the Obama. a care regimen and simply stop. It's futile, which is nonsense. And any doctor who comes in and attempts to run in front of committees, run out of the hospital, their contracts are entered, their careers are destroyed, and I could give you a lot of

details off the way. So which one are you? I'm the pro-life doctor. So have you had this, have they tried to run you out and destroy you? In public. Wow. Hang on the phone. I'd just like to have one of our producers

talk to you offline. Thank you. That's an interesting part he brings up, too, about how the family's hearts have hardened. I told the story before, but when my dad passed away, the doctors were really good and they did a great job.

And, you know, as it looked like there was basically no hope, they came in and were talking to us about, you know, what the next few days were going to look like. And they, I remember the doctor bringing up the idea that, you know, obviously this could be the end. And he brought it up in almost an apologetic way that we can't just, like, unplug him. Like, we can't just, like, let it.

We can't just, like, give him medication to kill him, basically. Like, we can't just euthanize him. And he said it almost apologetically. Like, oh, I'm so sorry. And I'm like, I thought to myself, like, dude, you understand that I want this guy to live, right? Like, that's the plan here. My idea here is I want him to live, but I think, you know, and he was bringing up the correct option there, which was to wait as long as possible. But it was in a way that he almost had talked to so many families that had decided they wanted the opposite, that he had to come at it from that perspective.

And that was shocking to me. I mean, the last thing in the world I expected to hear was that. We did the same thing. My dad was in the hospital. he was not on a breathing breathing machine he was just you know he was eating but he was he went into a coma

and the the nurse or the doctor made some mention of you know we just can't push a little more pain reliever in and I and I just looked at them and I said yeah we we know that

and I said do you are you recommending that? And she said, no, just a lot of families, you know, would like to see this end. And, and I said, we're not one of those families. We're not one of those families. Keep him comfortable, but we're not pushing him out. Yeah, that's, that's scary. That's common enough that they need to approach it from that side. Yeah. You know, they're seeing that. I mean, look, I understand. That's an impossible situation for families. And, you know, once you lose hope, you, you know, you can, it's an understandable instinct. But man, that's, you know, that's not what we're supposed to be doing.

I mean, again, the oath is to do no harm. I mean, I think about what they're doing to this baby. This is a totally different situation. This is someone. This is not, this is not a vegetative state. This baby is opening its eyes, a semi-vegetative state. So we've gone from vegetable, there's just a vegetable to, well, they're partly vegetable. There's some meat and potatoes there still, but they're partly vegetable. What, where is the line here? Where is the line? We went from vegetable on a breathing tube to now, kind of a vegetable,

but still has some waking periods during the day, uh, and no food and water. Not a, not a breathing tube. No food or water. We're going to starve them to death. You know what that leads to? Starvation is a horrible way to die. there's a way that we can make this more painless and easier.

That's how they started injecting children in Germany, but then that became too expensive, so they would just wheel all of them into a room and gas them. Remember, the gas chambers started at the hospitals. It started with the doctors finding better ways to kill people faster. It started with them wheeling them into the back of trucks because it was cheaper. So they'd wheel them in the trucks. And they would put all these people whose lives weren't worth living.

They would just take a hose from the exhaust and kill them. But that seemed a little cruel. So they built gas chambers in the hospitals. This is the way it's done, gang. It's done with compassion. It doesn't look like an evil thing. It always starts with compassion. And what's happening is we're training our doctors not to have compassion.

We're teaching our hospitals and our nurses not to have compassion. They're on the front lines fighting it every day. But when you got a government and health care that's saying, look, get them off, get them off, get them out of here. Somebody's making the choice. and it's not you or your family. I want to thank LifeLock for making the program possible today. According to an online security education company, there is a going rate for an internet user's identity.

wants to make at least a dollar more than what he spent so what do they do? They have to go and get your credit cards max out your credit cards see if they can get into your retirement funds see if they can get into your bank accounts. Darkweb is a system

So, Stu, it's your child. Alfie Evans. in the hospital, conscious, off a breathing tube. And the doctors are now saying you can't feed or give him any water. You've got citizenship in another country. The Pope has a helicopter waiting outside, and they won't let you touch your child. What do you do?

Honestly, at this point, after exhausting all the options this family has gone through, I honestly think I storm the castle gates. With what? You're not allowed to have a kitchen knife. Well, not with violence, but with a thousand people, if I could find him, supporters,

and walking right in there and taking that kid right out and bringing him into the freaking helicopter. And I don't know that if this kid dies, my kid dies in this situation, and I'm not in jail, I would consider it a personal failure. I would have to do every single thing within my power,

including breaking the terrible, terrible construct of law that they have put up there, including physically going in there and removing that kid. If you brought in with a thousand people gathered outside that were all your supporters and you all walked in there at the same time, I mean, I don't know what they would do. They're going to mow you all down? Maybe they would. No, but you're not going to get away because you can't. take the helicopter, they would send military.

You're probably right. They'd send military. But you know what? You just, I mean, would. At least you try. You try. And if you end up in jail and then that's your life and that's what you had to stand for, you probably look at that as a win in the end.

Yeah. I think I come to the United States as a dad. I think mom stays with the child and I fly to the United States and I try to get on as many news channels as I can possibly be on, and I try to wake the American people up. I think that's what I do. Because if America wakes up to it, maybe, maybe you have a chance.

Maybe you have a chance, but I don't know anymore. We haven't heard from Trump on this, have we? I know because Trump did speak up for Charlie Gardt during that. Who they killed. Who they killed. The last example of this,

the last time we've gone through this, story. I wonder, I mean, it would be helpful, I think, if we could really turn up the pressure from the United States. I mean, again, they're a sovereign nation. We can't stop them from doing anything, but, you know, everything we can do. I mean, look at what Italy's done. You have to give Italy a ton of credit here. I mean, they've made Alfie Evans a citizen. They've done everything they code to try to. Is it possible if they're a citizen? How is it possible? They can't take their own child out. There's a spokesman from Italy that said, we consider this to be murder of an Italian citizen. I mean, that's pretty far. So, you know, they've done a lot, but I mean, we should be doing

more for these cases again. You know, we should. I think Trump does care about this stuff a lot. He does. And I think he, him making a statement would be helpful. I mean, I don't know that it would, you know, turn this thing around. I haven't seen anything from him unless he's done it recently. If you don't know what we're talking about, Alfie Evans' two-year-old kid who's in a semi-vegetative state. He's not even a vegetative state. You know, see the pictures of him, and he's with his dad, and his eyes are open. And he's, you know, at times relating to the parents. They've just abused this child, the hospital has.

And, you know, the parents have come in, and they've found mold on the ventilator inside the tube. I mean, they've just, it's horrible what's happened. And nobody, no, doctors don't know what's wrong with him, but they just don't want to look anymore. It's too expensive. And so they are killing him now. Took him off the ventilator. And he's still living. But they don't want to feed him or give him any water.

This is immoral. And wake your friends and neighbors up about Alfie Evans and pray for a miracle because it's going to take one, but hopefully soon the world wakes up. Glenn, back. Mercury. Truth. So, are you in the majority or the minority? Don't you feel like you're in the minority? I'm in Los Angeles this week and wow, I feel like I'm in the minority.

Holy cow. Am I the only one? Not on a 101, just screaming, Why does everybody live here? I mean, I don't get it. I really don't get it. There are places where cars on the freeways actually go fast. It's crazy.

I know. There's no stoplights. I don't know why everybody has to stop on the freeway here. It's crazy. Anyway, if you feel like you're in the minority, stop feeling that way. Because facts don't lie. Polls and surveys, if conducted properly, honestly, reveal the truth. Obviously, researchers can manipulate the quantitative methods used for many studies,

a practice that happens, I'm told, probably a little more often than we realize, but for the most part, numbers don't lie. So let me give you this poll conducted by Reuters. The global market research and consulting firm Ipsos has revealed that nearly 60% of the 1,5006 adults interviewed between April 15th and the 19th support the recent deployment of the National Guard to the Mexican-U.S. border. 60% are you in the majority? 60% of Americans believe in the recent deployment of the National Guard on the U.S. Mexican border. 55% of U.S. adults consider the deployment of the National Guard to the border as effective in the short term, while less than half consider it effective in the long term.

Now, if you've been listening to the mainstream media, why? Something's not right. I don't know why I just think I'm getting a case of the vapors because something ain't right here. Seems a little off-kilter, doesn't it? because as the media portrays it, as Washington portrays it, the only people who support having the National Guard at the border are extremists. So are 60% of us extremists? Well, I just think that maybe good people, honest, good-hearted Americans that just don't hate everybody,

are tired of being labeled extremists. Why, why don't you have some sweet tea? Maybe in the recent narrative of multiculturalism at all costs, maybe reason has gotten lost and multiculturalism is getting old. Maybe the mainstream media has ignored honest Americans for too long. It's a shame that it would take an English news agency to reveal such a glaring yet subtle confirmation of leftist media bias, but at this point, it's easier to find the few instances of factual unbiased reporting than it is to point out the glaring examples of the leftist media framing, priming, and agenda setting. But make no mistake, America, the message is clear. You are not alone.

You as an American are not the only one screaming in your car. It's Wednesday, April 25th. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. Still, I have another one of these stories today that I think is best understood if you're drunk. Okay? Because it'll just, it doesn't make any sense. There's so many obvious things wrong with this that only a drunk person could not be affected by it. Only a drunk person would be like, that's okay.

I understand that. Is it okay if I start drinking? before these segments, so it's not I don't want to fake out the audience. I don't want to do a bit. I mean, I think we should do something authentic here if we're going to do this. And I think probably to hear these stories, I should probably at least have some alcohol.

I think only one of us should be enabled to operate every machinery. Okay. Bernie Sanders is starting early for the 2020 presidential election announcing Monday that he plans to

unveil a whole new set of promises that he can't keep, including a massive government expansion plan that includes a guaranteed job for every single American. What is that what we'll want? Well, what's the plan? Sanders has an outline that calls for government to fund hundreds of projects in categories such as infrastructure. I don't know what it is.

It has been infrastructure week every week. for quite some time. I think we need that. Roads and bridges are crumbling everywhere. Education and the environment. I love trees. Americans who want to do the hard work of building roads and bridges, educating children and cleaning up embankments on major highways,

would either receive a job with one of these projects, full health care and benefits and a $15 minimum wage, or receive job training. What kind of training? What's job training? Now, here's the part of the plan that I think the people who put the plan together were probably sitting in Bernie Sanders' office going, That is a fantastic idea.

You know what you should do? We should, and I'm quoting, we should divide the country into 12 separate districts. So we have like District 1, District 12. And we have all these districts and they can all specialize

in certain things. So like one district maybe just makes pants. And another one just like they do something else like grow flowers. Would you envision some sort of maybe contest revolving? I would think that

Yeah, weirdly, nobody noticed that the 12 districts is exactly the plan from the hunger games. Anybody else noticed that? Bernie, hello. He's not really part of the plan, right? There's not really a 12 districts. Yes. No. Yes, there is.

Yes, there is. 12 districts. Now, here's the thing. It's not because of the hunger games, although I wouldn't count that out. That is a job, right? I mean, I could be it in the hunger games. It's a gig. There are people are hungry and it is stuff to do and we can all dress up and I'm going to dress up.

And I'm going to wear a dress on fire. Here is probably where he got the idea. And you tell me which is better? The 12 districts from the 12 districts. you know, in the Hunger Games or the 12 districts that you can find in the former Soviet Union.

Oh, and the districts that Mao made in China. There's no way this 12 districts thing is part of this Bernie Sanders plan, is it? It is. You're making this up. Look it up. I am not making it up. I think you're making it up.

I am not making it up. You're drunk. That's the problem. I just coming here. I told you this makes more sense if you're drunk, right? Go ahead. You're looking at it. You're looking at it.

You're reading. Keep reading. Keep reading. There's 12thetics. I mean, it really... It's a brilliant idea. It really does seem... According to the Washington Post...

It can't trust them. I mean, you can't... I don't know. Wait, that can't be. I know, wait a minute, hang on just a second. Okay, so yeah, one district it makes pants. Maybe another district digs coal. And then every year we have like some sort of intradistic,

intradist, we have games with all of them. Oh, this is, you're totally lying here. Okay, here it is. Under the early draft of Sanders Job Guarantee, local state and American Indian tribe governments in every section of the country would send proposals for public works projects to the areas to 12...

We could send representatives. Right. We could send representatives to the capital city. Every year, the representative from each district goes to capital city. But what I'm saying is you keep saying this 12 district thing. This says 12 regional offices. That's totally different than a district.

This is a regional office. Right. Sure. It's a regional office. There's just two. 12 regions. District would be crazy. That is the only nuance here.

It's basically the hunger games, except they're calling them regional offices instead of districts. Right. And you know what? They called them in China and in Russia, they called them districts. But they had 12 regional offices. And those regional offices control beach region.

That's insanity. Insanity. And like why, if you had one of these jobs, let's say you had a job. Yeah. You currently worked at a... I'm making pants. You're making pants at a real company, not a fake government company.

I'm in District 3 making pants. Now, let's say you're at a real company. Let's say you're working at, you know, whoever... My pants company. My pants company is a real pants. Not government pants. I'm talking about actual pants. I don't know what a difference of government pants and real pants are.

You're making 30K and you're making... You're at a plant and you're making pants. And then the government... I've never made... I've never made... made as much as $3,000 a year of four. I believe that from you. You seem to be hammered.

But this is a good example. I'm glad you're a drunk employee right now. Because let's say you're a drunk employee, right? Can't lose my job. You're currently holding on. I put the I put yesterday I put the I put the

I put the I put the zipper on the leg. But that's okay. It's for I better not say that what it's good for. But it's, you put the zipper, I didn't put the zipper in the right place. The zipper sometimes doesn't make it to the right place.

We all know that. Okay. So you're making pants and you're a bad employee. Let's say you show up to work drunk often, but you're holding it together and you're keeping your job. Why would you, at the government factory where your job is guaranteed, why the hell would you show up and keep it together? why wouldn't you show up or not show up every day drunk? Why wouldn't you? Why wouldn't you switch from the real Pants factory to the government factory where everything's guaranteed?

It would incentivize you to do less and this is why these things fall apart. If you would shut up for a second, I could tell you why. Was I talking too much? Yes, you were talking to. Sometimes when you drink, you start to talking. Okay, so here's why. the constitutional rights from the former Soviet Union, civil and political rights, you have freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, unless they are not the prescribed if they are in conflict with the political beliefs, then you lose your right. But here it is the role of the citizen.

it is parasitism. If you are, you're a parasite. If you just go to work and you, and I swear to you that zipper was, it's now where I put that, then you have a violation of duty and it is a betrayal of the motherland and the gravest of crimes.

Right. So, so you're going to, well you don't need to shoot me in the head. Right. That's how this has to end, right? I mean, this is ask Ukrainian potato farmers how this ends. Yes. This is exactly how this has to end because human nature will make people fall to their lowest level when they're not going to be inspired by what they do, when there's no hope,

when the economy's been destroyed because of these things. And the only way to go to make people work in these contexts, as we've seen through human history is force. And once you start getting to that point, we're in a totally different world. They're admitting this would completely remake the American experiment.

Yes. Why not? Hope and change. I want to fundamentally transform the United States of America. Congratulations. We're here. That's when I push a button and it just I swear you, I push that button and the music didn't start.

tuned in today. I don't know how I should feel because I was driving around yesterday. I grew up on the West Coast. But I grew up before the West Coast went nuts. But, you know, I saw something from my childhood that I haven't seen, and I called my wife, and I'm like,

honey, I have got to go and have Shaky's Pizza. and she's like, pardon me? And I'm like, oh, no, Shaky's Pizza. I grew up, and it was like every kid wanted their birthday at Shaky's Pizza. And it was, and she said, is it good? And I said, no, I remember it a little like a paper towel and ketchup. And then they just cook it. That's it.

Yeah. So they serve fun at Shakey's also pizza. Okay, so it's a pizza parlor that doesn't put pizza first. And they have a piano playing piano player player piano. Okay. Okay. It's one of it was, it was a big deal when I was a kid. And Rob, who's traveling with us, he's our, I don't even know what he is.

He's the president of all things technical. And that's the official title, Mr. President. And we drove by and he remembered shaky's pizza. And he's like, oh my gosh. now we're taking everybody to Shakey's pizza tonight you're going to miss out but I'm not sure I know how I feel now I'm very excited I'm not sure how I'm going to feel after I've eaten something from shaky's pizza so you're saying you're not fully confident in the quality of the actual pizza it's kind of like for me it's kind of like if you had grown up around McDonald's and then you hadn't seen one in 40 years you'd be like McDonald's McDonald's is my kind of place. Happ, half, happy. But everybody who's still been around McDonald's, like, it's not a happy place, man.

It's not a happy place. It's a happy place for me. I don't know what you're talking about. But Shaggy's pizza in 1968 had 342 locations. I think this is going to surprise you. Chain currently has 500 stores. Shut up. It's actually grown.

It's the worst pizza in the world. At least it was in 1976. They may have updated. The recipe potentially? Maybe, I don't know, but it was, that was part of its charm. Part of its charm was, oh, it's like pizza on a paper towel. You know, ketchup on a paper towel. I hate to say it's pizza on a paper towel.

It's more like ketchup on a paper towel with some cheese and an olive. I shouldn't, I have two small kids, five and six. So I've spent several birthday parties at Chuckie Cheese, which I... Do not... No, do not compare. Obviously, Chuckie Cheese is better because it's got video games, but still, and it's got a dancing rat, which is fantastic. Shake you, Spita. That has a player, piano, piano player.

Right, but it's a rat playing it. No. I don't, you know, no, I'm sorry. That should tell you something. if a rat is the representation. That's what they make these giant inflatable rats in New York. They put them in front of restaurants so you don't go in. America.

You've got to start questioning yourself. Mercury. The Glenn Beck Program. I got to tell you, I'm in love with the story of Shaky's Pizza now. I've done a little research because they've got two, count them two big locations here in Los Angeles. Angeles. I drove by a Shakey's pizza here in L.A. just the other day

and I was like, oh my gosh, I haven't seen one of those since I was a kid. I must go. So I'm taking everybody to Shakey's pizza today. Yeah? No, that's the kind of guy I am. And I'm going to feel really bad. If it's good pizza, I'm going to feel really bad tomorrow

for saying all this. Now, if it's the pizza that I remember, I'm also going to feel really bad tomorrow. But for an entirely different reason. Okay, so listen to this. I'm seeing, by the way, they have an authentic Texas barbecue chicken pizza,

which I'm sure it would bring you back to the memories of where you, of your home here in Texas. I'm sure it's incredibly authentic. Oh, I bet it is. Okay, so listen to this. Shakey's Pizza was founded in Sacramento, California. Nothing good comes out of Sacramento, California. Nothing. It was founded by Sherwood,

Shaky Johnson. Johnson's nickname, Shaky, resulted from nerve damage following a bout of malaria. So already this is good. Hey, I got, I had just a touch of malaria and I'm just a little shaky, but I found that now I can

evenly distribute, put the cheese all over the pizza. Is he drunk too? Why is the guy with malaria drunk, too? Well, here's why. Because the parlor opened on a weekend, Shaky's Pizza Parlor, open on a weekend. But the pizza ovens were not yet complete.

Now, think of this. You're a pizza parlor and your ovens don't work yet. Perhaps you don't open in that circumstance. Do you open or not? The answer to, shaky was, Sam, right, we opened. All they served,

the only thing they served was beer. So bring your kids out of the shaky's pizza parlor, because we got beer. That's a, they took, a wonderful addition to any children's

pizza parlor is beer on the menu. Oh, it is. No, they serve, they served that at Chuckie cheese. They serve that at Chuckie cheese. They do. I was surprised because, you know, with the new kids that,

we've gone there for a couple years now, and it's great. Chuck E. Cheese is great because number one, they served beer, which I did not expect when I first walked in there. I did not remember that as a child. I don't know if they've always done it. I won't go until they start serving hard liquor. Yeah.

advisable. The other thing is, and maybe handguns. It's hard liquor and handgun night and Chuckie cheese. Does Shakeys, though, have the wonderful parts of it that are like a prison? Because what I like about Chuckie, cheese. I'm a big fan of this as a dad is when you come in, they give you like

a stamp number on your hand and they will not let a child leave without the same, with a parent with the same number. So like, it's almost impossible for anything bad to happen inside of a chunky cheese because they can't leave.

So you can go in there and you can get like five pictures of beer and pass out in the booth. And as long as you got enough tokens, likely your kid will still be around when you wake up. It's an interesting. business philosophy. Hang on. Is that supposed to be a selling point or something that tells me to stay away?

I guess it depends on your kids. Damn it. My kids are still here. You couldn't have found somebody better. There's good, I don't want you walking away with a bad guy, but you could have done some work and found a good family to go to. Your dad is passed out in the corner.

Whatever parent gives you the most tokens, go home with that. That's what you do. I have to, I do have to tell you this. You know, that's a kind of a weird selling point. Hey, we're going to make sure that that child predator doesn't leave the restaurant with your kid. Come with your kids, leave with your kids. I mean, that's kind of basic social contract stuff.

You know what I mean? You know, you don't go into a McDonald's and they're like, hey, because we have problems with child predators here, we're going to stand. everybody's hand. No, you don't even think of that at any other restaurant. You know, maybe shaky should think about. We don't need to stamp your hand. We don't have the child predators hanging around. I don't know. I mean, if you've watched enough 11 o'clock news, you think your kids are going to disappear no matter where you go. At any time, there is always, there's about 75% of our society is built of child predators looking to steal your children. So when you go into a place that they can't escape,

like it's some sort of prison camp it's a good thing you feel very you feel very you feel a little bit more stable as a parent while you're downing the second pitcher yeah by the way

I think you have to when you have one of these places have the mascot right you have to have the mascot like Chuck E cheese has Chuck E. Cheese E being his middle initial but they actually people think oh they have the mouse there it's actually a rat

The Chuck E. Cheese is actually a rat. They bought the costume, and I think they thought it was a mouse, and then realized afterwards that in the original Chuckie cheese, that it was a rat. But it's a great idea for a restaurant because you're getting out in front of it. If you have terrible

sanitary habits, and there's rats running around your restaurants, the people are going to think those are just mascots. Oh, look at the little mascot. That's great. It's got out of head of the problem. It's not as cute when you break it down. Last name cheese. middle name E could be eaten.

Or E. coli. Yeah. Eaton cheese. All right. The rat. His name isn't Chucky. It's Chuck. That's a big ass rat.

If you've got a bunch of rats and you're like, and that one's Chuck. That's a big rat, man. That's a big rat. Hang on just a second. Stop the music, Sarah. Stop the music. We have Ron in New York who used to work at Shake. Cheese Pizza. I didn't even know they still existed. Hello, Ron.

Are you doing? Good morning. Good morning. How are you? Still, the malaria has gone away. Do they still have the banjos at Shakey's Pizza? The Shakey's Pizza, which was located in North Syracuse, New York, actually went out of business in around 1974. not due to the pizza. The pizza was great. I didn't agree with you on that. But basically they tried to expand their menu into barbecue chicken and other things like that.

And dollar-wise, it didn't work out for them, so they had to close down. But they have... Go ahead. No, the shakies here was really kind of a great thing because it was. was mostly the people that went there were college students, you know, Syracuse University, LaMoyette, Gallagher Community College. And we had the player piano. We had the old-time movies on there, and we also had a live two guys that came in, and one played the piano himself, and another one played a banjo, and they did sing-alongs. And we had the, yeah, I remember the

being a really fun place, but I was like six at the time. But I remember it being, and it's strange, because I also remember, I also remember the pizza from a six-year-old point of view being good, and then maybe again when I was 12, thinking, wow, it's not so good. But I'm anxious to, I'm going tonight, because it's such a childhood memory. I'm going tonight. I'll let you know. But they have, what is it, 500 and some look.

locations? 600, but it's global, Stu. They have 60 in America. It's global. I always thought they were ahead of their time back in the 70s, because they made pizzas. They made the Hawaiian pizzas. They made shrimp pizza. You name it.

They would put it on the pizza. They had a German dark beer. They started selling that there, and it was really a fun place to work, a fun place to eat. and the pizzas really were not that bad. Now, maybe they went downhill when you got a little bit older, but I know when I was there. Maybe I don't want to judge. There are two open right where I'm staying,

and I'm going tonight, so there. Thank you very much, Ron. I appreciate it. I am a lucky guy, because it's Shakey's Pizza, and I haven't been there since I was six, and I think I threw up, but that's uh... that is not the that's not the song that's not the way not the exact song

it's close it's not the exact it may not may let me in now i actually am very excited and i don't know if i'll be disappointed if the pizza's good i'm interested that is a very weird thing to prioritize the fun over the pizza that's that you're telling people that the pizza's not good when you say we serve fun and also pizza that is not the way to structure that sentence I like it I like it They better be throwing the pizza dough up

This year. Well, it makes perfect sense, Stu. Okay. How? Okay. Well, because it was, what was it, last year or two years ago, when he was up for reelection, we said, don't elect Grover Norquist, really bad guy, right? Yeah, you made a big deal about it.

Yeah. there's a big campaign. You know, it was a big deal. They were recalling him, if I'm not mistaken. They tried to recall him. And he just squeaked by and was on the board. So now his election happens. I didn't say vote for the other guy.

And so now Grover Norquist loses. How does it? Well, think of this. Think of this. I was four. Not for George Bush to be the nominee, either George Bush's. They both won. I was for lightly John McCain, you know, anybody against Obama, he didn't win.

It was for Mitt Romney, anybody against Mitt. I was for everyone else but Mitt Romney in the run-up. Yeah. And then they all kept losing. And then Mitt Romney. And so I was like, okay, all right, I'm for him. He loses. Yeah.

I am for Ted Cruz. I campaign for Ted Cruz. He goes down in epic flames. Okay? People, this is not true, but people say that I was for Hillary Clinton. Well, what happened? She lost. Maybe there's some method to this madness.

Maybe I should just whoever I don't want. to win I should campaign for. This is interesting because so many people spent so much time trying to convince you to vote for their guy. Maybe what you want to do is convincing you to vote for the other guy. I'm going to start selling my endorsement to people you don't want to win. So in other words, I'll take the highest bid. I won't take money from Hillary Clinton, but I would have taken it from Donald Trump to

endorse Hillary Clinton. Sure. Sure. If that means she loses, yeah, okay, I'll do it. Yeah, I'll take that money. So you're like, you're now outwardly advertising yourself as the kiss of death. Yeah, I like to refer to myself, you've heard of angel investors. Yeah. I'm kind of like, I'm looking for angel of death investors.

So if you want to invest in the angel of death, I'm here for you. My political kiss destroys a career. This is a great new business line to go into. I think it is. I think it is. I don't know if it's entirely legal, but we just won't talk about it. We'll just joke about it like we're thinking about doing it,

and then we'll throw everybody off the track. We used to say this about when the devil rays, the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, were the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and they were really bad, and they had a Tropicana Field. And we used to joke that it was actually Minutemate Maid who bought the rights and then just named it Tropicanna Field. That's what you should do.

This is great. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. I don't know. I think this is a legitimate new business line for you. The anti-endorsement.

You just come in. This portion of the program brought to you by MSNBC and George Soros. I love those guys. MSNBC is off the air. Woodrow Wilson was the greatest president of all time. You just get you to endorse cancer now. Everything will be great. Glenn. Back.

Mercury. truth. You know, sometimes I just kind of feel like Gandhi should have said, you know what, you can all go to hell. But maybe that's just me. I am, I can't take it. I can't

take, well, let me start at the beginning. Breaking news from the Associated Press. The news organization that has garnered 52 Pulitzer Prizes, America's primary source for news. The news platform that nearly all other news networks,

get their news reporting and information from. Important breaking news. Headline. First Lady Melania Trump greets the macrons with a hat. The first line, Melania, or more specifically, Melania's hat. What were you saying? What the hell are you talking about? What?

The article goes on to mock the first lady for her appearance. For her appearance. I thought we weren't supposed to bully. I thought we weren't supposed to notice. I thought we weren't supposed to notice beauty, and we certainly weren't supposed to notice ugliness. Now, think of this. They're mocking a legal immigrant, a woman,

who came here and achieved the American dream without Donald Trump. If you look at the byline, it doesn't credit any writer. Now, you could say it's because everybody was like, I can't put my name on that piece of crap. But that's not what happened. It credits the story to the Associated Press. So the editors at the Associated Press had a little powwow, no offense, you know, meant

to Elizabeth Warren. But they all agreed, yeah, yeah, this is great journalism. You know what? Screw Bob and Susan. Screw them. Let's credit that's to the entire news organization. Now here's why I say Gandhi should have once in a while said, you know what, go hell. During the Obama administration, do you remember how the media pranced around every chance to

celebrate Michelle Obama's beauty? She was a beauty of the ages. Look at her arms. Look at her abs. My gosh, she's the most beautiful thing ever. She could wear a sack. She could wear Kleenex boxes for shoes and she just did she makes them hers. The Hill ranked her number nine on their list of the 50 most beautiful people of 2015. People magazine did the same thing. Come on! The media adored her every step like a newlywed couple watching their child's first step. She could do no wrong, strong woman, exemplifying power, beauty, feminine grace.

They belotted Michelle Obama every turn of the way, worshipful, Worshipful, proud, exuberant in their praise. And we could not disagree. You know what? I mean, you can look at her abs, but she's walking away. There's a caboose happening there. Oh, my, oh my gosh. Oh, my gosh.

He didn't just say that, did you? Meanwhile, Melania Trump, literally a model, literally a supermodel. has been ignored at best and scowled by the media. This is the latest example of the mainstream media's hatred for President Trump. Look, you don't like his policies, you don't like him, that's fine. What the hell of the way? What are you doing? Leftist and their parrot-like media hate him. They're frothing at the mouth, waiting for him to fail,

doing everything they can to make it happen. But say what you want about the man. But delusional, delusional hostility is far more frightening than anything else. I mean, look, anyone with eyes, Michelle Obama was a pretty woman. She was pretty. She wasn't the most beautiful person in the world. She didn't have, my wife has arms better than hers. That doesn't mean that Michelle Obama's are bad.

Doesn't mean I don't like her. But do you have eyes, man? If you think that she was one of the most beautiful women in the world, good for you. But I don't think you'd actually did. Oh, she is just the most beautiful, striking woman. No, no. No. She was a pretty woman.

Nothing wrong with that. Not everybody is a supermodel, but when you have a supermodel to then come out and like, look at her. What a dog face? What the hell? What is going on? we need to find a middle ground. We have to find common sense and reasons. We must fix reason firmly in her seat.

Can we stop lying to, not each other, to ourselves? We all know that Melania Trump, if she were out there, you know, touting abortion, she'd be the most beautiful, elegant, she is most beautiful woman since Jackie Kennedy. And that's true. But they're not saying that. We need to find those people on both sides that will just admit reality.

And just stop hating and doing everything you can. I have to tell you, we have to find these people before the other people. people, mainly the media, sink the boat entirely. It's Wednesday, April 25th. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. Hour number one, we did a full hour on what's happening to our friends in England. It's not good.

You know, we were mocked for saying that death panels are a result of universal health care. Well, that's what's happening. There is this two-year-old boy named Alfie Evans. They don't even know what's wrong with him. He's got some brain disorder. he went in, he became unresponsive, he is not in a vegetative state. He's in a semi-vegetative state. He is looking at his dad and his mom. They don't know what's wrong with him. He has become an Italian citizen. The family has become an Italian citizen. Italy is opening up their hospitals. The Pope

has a helicopter at the airport ready to whisk him to Italy. And the government Institute of has decided he doesn't have any reason to live. So they unplugged him from the ventilator, expected him to die right away. He didn't. He's now breathing on his own. It took six hours of the parents begging. Please let us give him a drink of water.

This is state-sanctioned murder. And I don't know what can be done at this point, but Will Moll from Faithwire has been following this story and can give us the latest. Hi, Will, how are you? Hi, Glenn, how you doing? I'm, you know, I've been better. I don't know what's happening in the UK.

I don't know what the UK's turning into. Yeah, it's pretty disturbing, right? It's, they're actually in court right now, so they're in the court of appeals in the UK, and the hearings going on right now to see whether anything can be done. They're still arguing that Alfie can be transported to Italy. They've, like you said, they've got guys on standby,

to take them there, but it's not looking good at the moment. There's still a way to go in the hearing. Will, are you in the UK now, or are you here in the United States? Yes, I am. I'm actually in Northern Ireland. I'm over in Northern Ireland, but, yeah, they're just across the water there in Liverpool. So it's close to home, and it's really, really, really disturbing in many ways. So, Will, are you... Are the people over there, are they as upset about this?

or is this just starting to become normal, that the government's just killing kids? It's definitely not becoming normal. I think it is a unique situation. We saw a similar thing with Charlie Gard a while back, but the silence from, I would say, from a lot of politicians and a lot of faith leaders over here is pretty deafening.

There's not much outrage at all from many leading figures. I think I've seen one member of the European Parliament take a real stand against it, team up with the family, but it's quite confusing why there isn't more of an outrage when you actually look at the case and what's happening. So they have, I don't know if you've seen these pictures. I have not gotten permission from the family to release them, and I wish they would, but I have pictures of the care that he was receiving, if I can even call it that. They have not cared for this child at all. I have a picture of his breathing tube in him, and it is

covered in mold in the inside. I have a picture of him in his bed where he is wet all the way up almost to his armpits. His bed is all wet. Nobody changed him. I have pictures of the crust of snot all around his tubes where they hadn't changed it. I mean, this is a lot. I mean, This is despicable what's going on. Yeah, absolutely. I personally haven't seen those pictures yet, but it is concerning. And just looking at the courts,

they've very much been focused on the best interest for Alfie. That's a phrase you use a lot in the family law here. They say, we want to see everything done in the welfare of Lil Alfie and his best interest. But they've said that it's in his best interest not to be transferred to it, which you can kind of understand because he's obviously a fragile patient and if they're worried he's going to die in transit, then that's a fair enough concern. But then they've also said the best interest that he not be,

that treatment not continue for him at Old Hay Hospital. So they conclude that they're saying that the best interest in the case of this child is that he would, he would die. And that's extremely disturbing. And I can't see why more people are in outrage by that. what what is it going to take to i mean we here in america when we started going down the road of universal health i said look let's just look at this logically when there's not enough money somebody has to make the choice of who lives and who dies and the government is going to have a death panel of sorts where they will decide what the limit is well everybody said that was a horrible conspiracy and i was a bad man for even saying it but that's what's happening How many of these have to happen before people start to realize over in England,

wait a minute, I'm in control of my own life and I'm in control of my children's lives. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. And why hasn't there been a deferrence to the parents? The judge, effectively, is saying to them, we know the best interest for your child in conjunction with the medical advice. There's no space for the parent to actually say, well, no, you don't. You know, this is a grave situation, but we should be given the final. the final say and what happens to our child.

And even, I mean, I think that the courts really are doubling down on their ruling. They're trying to set a legal precedent and they've refused to engage with any public scrutiny over, you know, their assertions on the sanctity of life because it's really coming down to that. Do they see this life as worth living anymore? And clearly, you know, you could argue they don't. So it's highly, highly concerning for the future, I'd say. So what are they saying now? Because they expected him to die as soon as they took him off the ventilator,

and he isn't dying. Is anybody saying, oh, wait a minute, maybe we should reevaluate? I mean, is this meant anything to anyone? For what I've seen, the barrister from the hospital is sort of backtracking and saying that now on Monday before they took the ventilation off Alfie, there was a team of medics who explained that actually he could be alive for seconds, for minutes, for hours, or indeed for days. So the argument that they're saying is that was clearly explained to the parents

and that he actually, he was, there was always a chance that he might be able to breathe on his own for a period of time. And of course, then came the situation in which his parents, as he said earlier, were desperate to get in some food and some oxygen and some water, which he needs just to survive by himself. So that's, yeah, it's a difficult one, but, you know, healthy his father today. He said doctors only just started feeding him at 1 o'clock yesterday, but his microphone was switched up at 9 p.m. the previous evening.

So that's, I mean, in many ways you could say that's starvation. You know, it's forced starvation. Oh, it is. It absolutely is. How are the parents? Have you interacted with the parents at all? I haven't managed to get hold of the parents. Obviously, it's incredibly, it's mayhem really outside the hospital, but we have spoken to the Christian Legal Center, who are the guys who are representing them.

I spoke to one of the representatives there just before the Supreme Court ruling, and they were quite hopeful that actually Alfi, in their view as being held against his will. It was basically an illegal imprisonment. And then, of course, the Supreme Court ruling was that they sided with the hospital, with the doctors, and they said actually this is where it ends. At that point, they'd said, actually, this is, it's not lawful to, you know, it's lawful to detain him.

It's lawful to treat him up until the end of his life. But, I mean, the guy we spoke to Roger. Kiska at the Christian Legal Center I noted yesterday he said, you know, we think it sets a dangerous precedent when the state determines whether the quality of someone's life is good enough for them to live or not.

That should be a determination made by the parents. And I think that's what really they're trying to argue now in this hearing today is, you know, at least at the very least, we should be able to transfer him home and be with him in his last days.

It doesn't know good of them. moment. It looks like that may not even happen. So, yeah, I'd say it's still a long way to go, but it's been an arduous process for the parents, for sure. Will Moll from Faithwire. Thank you for your reporting. Thanks for being on the program. And thank you to everybody at Faithwire. I know a lot of the guys there, and you guys are on it.

And if the people of faith don't wake up and start stepping to the plate, we're all lost. Will, thank you so much. God bless. Thank you. Safe. Boy, sometimes don't you just want to just lock your kids away from what's outside, what they have to, all the crazy stuff that's going on. Obviously, you can't do that, but Liberty Safe can take everything that is of value to you,

besides what is of true value, your family, and they can make sure that nobody gets to it. Liberty Safe, just the best built safes in America. I have for the museum, we have five of them. And, I mean, we keep all of Thomas Jefferson letters. We have the letter from Thomas Payne. I've got to bring it in and read it to you. I have the letter from Thomas Payne to Ben Franklin after he wrote Age of Reason saying, no, that's not what I meant.

I'm not an atheist. I'm actually trying to get the people in France to understand and reason with them. it's an amazing piece of history. Where do you keep it? Man, if there's a fire, I want to make sure that that thing survives. If there's a hurricane or a tornado, I want to make sure that that safe can be picked up and dropped a couple of blocks away,

and that document is still fine. That's why I have it in a Liberty Safe, whether it's your guns, your photos, whatever is important to you. Liberty Safe. Now you can get 12 months interest-free payments with zero down and zero APR. They even offer Liberty Saves for as low as $20 a month.

Liberty Safe. Go there now. LibertySafe.com. That's libertysafe.com. Glenn, back, Mercury. Welcome to the program. You know, I can, I can, I can see why so many people just kind of want to tune out.

I mean, because you can go your life and you can just, you know, see the crazy things and kind of laugh them off and go through your life because none of our lives have, have really truly been that deeply affected, except on, you know, you want to start your own business, or maybe you're trapped in, you know, a class

because you just can't break out anymore. You know, whatever it is, we, we all have our frustration. Maybe you're frustrated, like the VA, the guy from the VA that we spoke to today. He's on a morphine drip, gets a splash of morphine every six seconds. but the VA has decided that, you know, hey, you know, pain is, relief of pain is not essential. Are you kidding me? But most of us have not been affected that deeply yet.

And so we, we just stand by these usurpations, these, these affronts to our freedom and our, and the things that we hold dear. But boy, we are entering the time now when our biggest ally is euthanizing children in exactly the same way and exactly the same reason that Germany started their euthanasia program for kids that were just suffering. Even the German people stood up against that. Even the country that voted for Hitler forced that to end. Will the West? Glenn Beck Mercury

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program There's a couple of things that you should know about the the NRA held their board elections and Grover Norquist has lost so Grover Norquist thank God is no longer part of the

NRA and the NRA is I think getting stronger and stronger every day. The NRA just broke a 15-year fundraising record. Now, think of that. For everything that has gone on in the last 15 years, all the close calls that the Second Amendment has had, the NRA just broke its fundraising record. That's really good news.

And speaking of good news, I have to tell this story. I don't know if you saw the picture of the. of the Michigan Highway yesterday, there was a guy who was thinking about throwing himself off an overpass, and he was going to throw himself off this overpass onto the freeway. And a trucker heard about this. And so the truckers all got together and said, let's park under the overpass.

and so the police helped them get on the highway going the opposite direction. And what they did is, as this guy was standing on the edge of the overpass, all of these truckers pulled their semis up underneath him. So if he jumped, he'd only fall like 10 feet. And they blocked his path to suicide. That's great. I think that's one of the greatest stories ever. It's really cool.

Yeah. Look the picture up. If you haven't seen the picture, it's an amazing picture. I just love that. Just love that. Welcome to the program, Pat Gray. How are you feeling today? Oh, mm.

That good. Oh, that good. Yeah. Closer to death, perhaps today may be the day. Yes. Closer to death than yesterday. Wow. Wow.

And but you're, you're feeling really horrible today, but you haven't called a doctor, which is always the right thing to do, I think. Yeah, it is. Uh, because you would be on hold and then you would talk to a nurse, and then they would. write something down and then you'd never hear from him again the rest of the day so okay good all right

good i know how that goes i like that yeah pat had kidney failure last week they thought he had uh kidney stones but he well he does but that wasn't the problem yeah he had uh scar tissue in his fallopian tubes uh and uh he's never going to be able to have a baby uh ever again so yeah i don't know how it all worked but you know well actually i do but i'm a doctor i'm but i'm trying to break it down into layman's term so you can understand. No, I think you're doing a good job. Thank you very much. So, Pat, have you heard the Bernie Sanders plan? Yeah, where everybody gets a guaranteed job and income? Yeah. It's a great plan. Yeah. What's wrong with everybody having a job and everybody having income, Glenn?

Oh, no, no, nothing. Okay. All right, good. No, not nationalizing the jobs and everything. That's fantastic. But have you heard the details of how they're going to do this? No, he never gives details yet. actually gave some now? Oh yeah, no, he had details in this plan, and Stu did not believe me. I didn't. And so he went to the internet, trying to prove that I was wrong, and was I wrong, Stu? You were actually not wrong on this one for once. Yes, okay.

No way. Really? Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah. No, I know. It's crazy. We're all stopped. How about that?

Okay. You know, a stopped clock, you know. Yes. So, so, uh, here's the thing. Now, see if you think that there's a problem, at least in PR, alone on this one. He announced that the way they're going to make this work is they're going to divide the country up into 12 districts. Oh, yeah, right.

Yeah. Yeah. Haven't we tried that before? I think in the future we try. Yeah. Yeah, in the hunger games. Yeah. In the hunger games. How can you be, how can everyone around you be so culturally deaf?

that nobody says, uh, that was the plot of the hunger games. We probably should do that. Not only is it the plot of hunger games is the actual action plan from one of our, uh, you know, very close allies,

China. Yeah. And another very close ally, Russia. They've done that too. I know. But here's the thing. And I'm just going to give this one to Bernie for free.

I don't know if they know that George Washington was a slave owner. But I think it's wrong that our capital is in a city called, uh, Washington, I think we should, I think we should just call it Capital City. Oh, yeah, that's much, yeah, I think that's perfect. Right. Yeah. Yeah.

So we've got 12 districts and the Capital City. And I think it's great. I think it's great. Yeah, well, look how well it worked. Yeah. In that documentary. I mean, it went really, really well. It was a beautiful city.

I mean, Capital City was really nice. Yeah. There were some people in that society who did very well. Yes. they gave some of the kids an opportunity to get some exercise. I mean, there's a lot to be said for it. A lot to be said for it. Can I take a stand against the mayor of San Francisco on something?

Because I don't know if you've heard this. This guy is the most insensitive. Sure is. The most non-carrying bastard, I think I've ever, I've ever read. Listen to this. He's a lot. After years of complaints, San Francisco Mayor Mark Farrell vowed on Friday to become more aggressive.

in clearing the city's sidewalks of homeless encampments. So uncaring. He told the San Francisco Chronicle, listen to this. Listen to this heartless bastard. He said, enough is enough. We've offered services time and time again and gotten many off the street, but there's a resistant population that remains and their tents have to go. We have moved as a city from a position of compassion to enabling street behavior.

and as mayor, I can't stand for that. Oh, my gosh. Why does he hate the poor? Why does he hate the poor so much? The poorest among us, the destitute, those who need help the most, that's who he wants to cast right out onto literally the street. They can't even have their tents up on the streets? He says tents are a public safety hazard for the people living in them.

He's people who don't even have houses. He's trying to convince us that it's his compassion. to not enable people to live in tents. You know what he purports to be against are the human poop piles all along the streets of San Francisco in a 14-block area. They only found 300 of them. That's it?

A human poop piles. 300? Yeah. Along with a lot of used syringes and drug paraphernalia and trash. And probably five or six of the poop piles could be large dogs. It's possible. It's possible.

It's possible. Remember when we were there? What was that? What year was that when San Francisco hosted the Super Bowl? Yeah, that was three years ago. Yeah. And we stayed in that nice area. It used to be Nicholas Cage's house, right?

Am I remembering that right? Yeah. And it was supposedly he paid $15 million for it, and I think he overpaid a little bit, but that's what you do in San Francisco. Anyway, that was a really nice street. I'm staying at an Airbnb, and I think it's Casey Afflex.

place. Oh. And I think he overpaid a lot. Really? It's amazing how you can be in decent areas. You go a block and it is it's horrible.

Yeah. Well, these cities are these blue cities are coming apart at the seams. It was horrible on that nice block if you remember. The smell. Yeah. The smell was disgusting. Oh yeah. I mean it was, you could smell human waste. You could see the garbage all over the place.

And San Francisco is probably one of the most beautiful cities in the world, or at least it used to be. And they just let it go to hell. It's really, it's heartbreaking. But I think, though, that it is start. I think this is starting to come undone. I think people are like, enough is enough, man. Yeah, well, you've got a super liberal here who's upset with his own policies.

So finally, I mean, they're waking up to that at least, right? So what's the policy allowed? Do you have any idea? like how many human poop piles can they have on any given stretch? I think it's only 280. And so they've exceeded that by... Cut it down by a good... Yeah.

...to 8% or so. Last time I was here, I was in Santa Monica. And you can't at night. The city is handing out tents. They're the opposite of San Francisco now. San Francisco is mad. But now San Francisco is saying, hey, you can't live in tents on the sidewalks.

Santa Monica is actually... handing tents out. Encouraging it. Encouraging it. Oh, geez. I mean, it's suicidal as a city. I don't even understand it. And all of these cities have been with the same leadership for 60, 70, 80 years.

And in some cases, completely uninterrupted over that time period. No Republicans at all. Detroit. Detroit. No Republicans since 1962. to surprisingly the year that Detroit was named America's best city. Yeah, one of my favorite stats in any of your books, Glad it goes back to. I think it's an inconvenient book.

And it goes over it looks at the cities with the top 10 cities with the highest poverty rates at that time, which was what? That was a 2007 book, 2008, something like that. But, I mean, it hasn't changed much since then. And you look at those cities going back, I think it was 50 years. And the percentage of the time those 10 cities had been. run by Republicans, and it was something like, you know, 8% of the time. I mean, like how you can go through a half century trying the same policies that result in nonstop poverty and not switch, you know, paths.

I just don't understand it. Can you look something up for me? Somebody told me here in California, and I just haven't had the chance to look it up, and I just remembered it. And if it's true, it's absolutely incredible. In a place where you have to have a permit for everything. I mean, you know, Los Angeles is like New York. It's insane.

And, you know, you do anything, you know, out of line. I mean, unless you're an illegal and you're toast. And it's my understanding that Elon Musk only has a handshake on the deal of boring underneath whatever city here in the L.A. area, he's boring underneath. He doesn't have permits. the city council and the mayor, he's like, look, I think I can do some things here and, you know, here's the plan and, and they have a handshake on it. Can you find out if that's true? Because that's, what? Yeah, that's not the way.

I mean, that's, that's like living in Texas, you know, somebody's like, I got an idea. And you're like, okay, give a shot. Yeah, that would be a very strange one to tunnel under a city without a permit. Under a city. Like, California of all places would be a lot. But you wouldn't be, I'll bet you, I will bet you that Elon Musk has enough juice and enough trust. And the city is like, look, if we're going to permit this thing, it'll never happen. It'll be 20 years in the permit process.

Yeah. Maybe the idea for the city is to figure out if you can get Elon Musk to say less than 200 poop piles per quarter mile. If you get him on that bandwagon, maybe they can get that done. Yeah. You know, I mean, 200 on one side of the road. So a total of 400, I think, is the right now. How big was this radius of the poop piles? I think it was a 14 block radius.

It was a straight down that street 14 blocks. Okay. And that's how many they found. Who the hell was, who would live there? I. Who would live on that street? Someone who likes to poop outside. That person would live there.

They're into that. I think that person is like, they and their friends. So can you imagine? I mean, imagine, is this a bad section of town? No, no, no. No, it's like the sections we were in. It's just the problem San Francisco has now. I remember, do you remember we were walking, we had, you know, women with us, and we all said we would never, ever, if we lived here, let our wives.

Yeah. You know, not let our wives, but encourage our wives to walk outside alone. No way. Yeah, no way. Because it was so, it was so dicey, and it was a good section of town. I'll bet it one time 10 years ago, 15 years ago. It's probably one of the nicest sections of town. There's just no money flowing through that area.

They just don't have any money. That's the problem. Right. That's what's amazing is this is where all of our entire economy is pouring through this area. And still they have these problems. God, imagine if the economy goes bad? I saw a picture of a house that was, I mean, looked like a stabbing cabin. It was horrible.

It was about 600 or 800 square feet. It was literally falling down. It was in a bad section of town, and it was a million dollars. And you couldn't inhabit it at that. I mean, it's nuts. The amount of money. Included with that? No.

But you know what? Hey, you could always make your own free country. Make your own human poop pile. Background unleashed coming up in just a couple minutes on the Blaze Radio and TV networks. Isn't all of Washington, D.C.? I mean, at least the capital. just a human poop pile. Isn't that really?

It's what it's kind of shaped like it. We paint the capital brown and it's an emoji. If you're hiring, you need to find the right person. You need great people.

Glenn Beck, Mercury. Glenn Beck. Welcome to the program. You know, we've often thought, you know, maybe we should have a dog's life. Wouldn't it be great to have a dog's life? and then you realize, you know, they got to poop outside. Well, maybe we just all move to San Francisco, and we can all live the dog's life. Anyway, Dave Rubin is going to be on the program today from Sherman Oaks, a fascinating guy,

who used to call himself a progressive. And now he's like, no, nope, I'm definitely not that. Really fascinating conversation. Dave Rubin, from the Rubin Report, tonight, 5 o'clock only on the... the blaze.com slash TV. Glenn, back. Mercury.
