When you were little, you
had braced some of
in course of recreat,
always in trying to negotiate and
to make these exchanges.
The appellee-negoti-titre
you can't renew with this instinct
that, with without operation
gratite,
no amount of minimum,
and no free mensuel.
You're made for negotiate,
and the TD is there for you aid.
Well, hello, America.
The pandemic is not over.
We're still feeling the aftershocks,
and this is a new earthquake.
In March of 2021,
25 heads of the...
the governments and international agencies called for a new treaty that would protect the world
from future health crisis. We needed to act faster than we did. Currently, the WHO is negotiating
two documents, one of them is the pandemic agreement known as the Accord Treaty, CA++, and
zero draft, and the other is amendments to the international health regulations. The good news is
These lay out new powers for the WHO if there's a health emergency and broadens the context in which they can be used.
So they're just, they want to cut through the red tape.
And if the WHO says you've got to shut your country down, that the countries don't really have a choice.
We got to shut the, if they say, you know, who's really hurt it.
It's the Trump people that are spreading this.
I guess maybe we would have to, we'd have to close all the doors for the Trump people.
I don't know exactly.
I just know this usurps our right to govern ourselves and our country's sovereignty.
And it is coming up right around the corner.
We have Dr. Kat Lindley on.
She grew up in Yugoslavia.
And so she knows this kind of oppression, and she is one of the fiercest fighters against it.
We're going to get all the details in 60 seconds first.
I want to talk to you about Jace Medical.
You know, the good people over the Chinese Communist Party, they have your best interest at heart.
They really do.
And if there were, let's say, you know, major medicine shortages throughout the United States, all of a sudden, why?
Our good friends, the Chinese, they would just make more of it and send it as fast as
they could. Of course, now they got a lot of fentanyl coming over, you know, so it'd have to wait in line
for the fentanyl because there's a big demand for that here in the United States, apparently,
and they're willing to do it and send it right to Mexico where the drug cartels can send it.
So I don't know about you. I just don't trust the Chinese, and unfortunately, most of our
medications are made not here in America. So I want to talk to you about the Jace case.
Jace case, you need one in your home.
It's a pack of different antibiotics that you can use to treat a host of bacterial illnesses in an emergency.
It's something you can keep in your home ready for use in a situation where you otherwise can't get the medication that you need.
And if things in the supply chain get worse, there's going to be a vast majority of vital medication.
So don't delay.
You can get all the medications your family takes.
They're adding more medications all the time.
You can have a year's supply worth at your house.

Dr. Kat Lindley, she is a family physician and a global health project co-founder and president,
and she is the director of global COVID summit.org.
Doctor, welcome to the program.
Thank you for having me today.
You bet.
So tell people, most people don't know anything about this.
What is the WHO doing?
Exactly, as you said, they came together in 21 and decided that we need better protection from future pandemics
because that's what they feel, that we're going to have this perpetual state of
emergent pathogens and new pandemics.
What they're trying to do is negotiate at the same time two documents.
One is the treaty that they are calling an agreement currently
because they're trying to get away from calling it a treaties
since treaties have to be ratified in our Senate.
So this is one document.
The other one is amendments to international health regulation.
They really need to be looked at together
because exactly as you said,
if they are passed in May of this year
by the War Health Assembly in Geneva.
It would give powers to Director General
in an event of public health emergency
to decide that the area needs to be closed,
the borders can be closed,
they can issue quarantine, isolation.
They can dictate to the member states
what type of therapeutics we use, diagnostics, vaccines.
There is a huge push for more censorship of voices
that don't feel the same as the World Health
organization. There is this war on infidemics. There is going to be a sharing of intellectual
properties, more push for EUAs to approve new products. And all in all, when you really look
at the documents and read both of them, you really understand that this is an attack on U.S.
Constitution, specifically First Amendment, Fourth, Tenth, and Fourteenth Amendment.
Okay. Good, but only those. Only those.
those, that's good.
People will say, oh, this is a conspiracy.
They're not trying to take it.
They're just trying to help.
They're just trying to help.
Well, yes.
That's actually the big push that Director General Tedros always says,
for the future generations, we must pass this pandemic agreement because we need to protect
them.
And if you don't, we are failing at our jobs.
In reality, you have to see that.
The World Health Organization is trying to position themselves to become this global health authority.
There is also something in the Article 5 of the pandemic agreement called One Health.
And One Health essentially says that the lives of humans are not more important than animal plants,
and everything is intertwined with the climate change.
So with this One Health agenda, the world,
Holt organization will essentially have power over, you know, the full aspect of life on earth.
Oh, that's fantastic.
Is the World Health Organization still in bed with the Chinese, or is that something that can
change from time to time just based on the, I don't know, the appointments of the people,
or is this still an arm of the Chinese?
Very much, so.
Tedros was actually a position with the support from China and specifically United Nations.
As you are well aware, a war health organization is a subsidiary of United Nations.
And there is actually, it's interesting to watch both of these organizations at the same time
because the UN is pushing for global governance.
And they are pushing for this CVDC, the Central Bank digital currency.
if you combine that with the World Health Organization
push for vaccine digital passport
that they have adopted from European Union,
you can really see this possibility
of reaching social credit scores system
that they already have in China.
These are not conspiracy theories.
You just have to read their documents.
They lay it all there.
Yeah, are you getting any attention at all from the mainstream media?
No, mainstream media really like.
this pandemic agreement. Luckily, we are getting some support from legislators on federal
level and specifically on state level. I feel that I listen to you all the time, so I know you
are well aware of our political landscape. On federal level, we will have a difficult time because
Biden administration is the one pushing for most of these amendments. Yes. And they are very much in
favor of the pandemic agreement.
But on state level, we can actually protect ourselves because of the 10th Amendment.
And in New Hampshire, I testified in February on a bill HB. 1156 that would not allow any
jurisdiction to the World Health Organization on state level, on, you know, county levels and
things like that.
So they are going for a full vote on the floor this Thursday.
And we need all hands on deck.
We need everyone in New Hampshire to call their representatives because it made it out of the committee split, right?
Democrats were against this bill and Republicans obviously understand the danger.
So we need people to call their representatives and push for this bill to be passed.
And that is in New Hampshire.
And when is that decision that vote?
Thursday.
And Bill is HB. 1156.
1156.
okay um we'll uh we'll put some notices out if you're in new hampshire please call this happens
Thursday and this the 10th amendment is the amendment that says anything that's not enumerated
in the constitution as a federal power all of that goes back first to the people or first to the
states and the people um and if it's if it's not spelled out in the constitution then they
no they have no jurisdiction the state can can make the rules on that and so you're
trying to use the the 10th amendment saying that there's there's nothing in the
Constitution that says what exactly what are they claiming is their power the
health care the police power when it comes to health care of the citizen of the
state are go to the federal I mean to the state level federal
level has no jurisdiction over the health care, the citizen.
So this is why it's important to actually push for this to protect the states
so that the World Health Organization, if they decide we need future lockdowns,
new vaccines, quarantine, and things like that,
the state agencies do not have to comply and they should not comply.
How different would COVID have been if this were in play?
Not only that, how different the COVID would have been if the physicians were allowed to do what we know best to do.
Correct.
You know, early treatment, us really coming in first line and taking care of the people and then speaking with our agencies and our agencies listening to us.
I would say the only good thing that happened during COVID era is that we realize that our government,
I know you know this, but most people didn't realize that our government is not.
really working for us and there are too many strings attached with many of these agencies.
You know, someone like me, I understand what has happened because I looked at it through
global eyes, you know, build back better. When have you had these heads of state in every
country say exactly the same words, build back better? You had me at hello.
Yes. And, you know, people need to realize that this truly is
an attack on national sovereignty of all the countries.
Yes.
You know, I was in Croatia in December,
testifying in their parliament,
and that's exactly what I said.
You know, Croatians need to remember who they are,
love their country, and take back their power.
The same thing with Americans.
This is a country that understands freedom,
that understands this is the most important thing we have in the world,
and we need to take back our power.
Simple as that.
How concerned are you, just as an individual that, you know, grew up under communism, left Yugoslavia, I think when you were about 18, and got to Italy and then to America to go to school?
How concerned are you with what you're seeing in just America itself?
You know, I am a true example of what American dream is, and I have five children.
I do fear for their future.
I fear, you know, with everything that's happening, the transgender policies, we're trying to confuse our children and who they are so that they are easily controlled.
You know, I hate this bipartisan divide because we all should value what America stands for.
If you lose this country, if we lose the freedom, you know, America is a beacon of hope for so many people like myself.
And everyone, when I speak with people around the world, everyone says, eyes are on the United States.
You know, you guys get your act together.
Do something.
We're letting it slip through our fingers.
And I'm a realist.
And I have to tell you, I'm afraid.
I am really afraid.
We need a complete change of leadership in November.
Every person needs to go and vote.
They need to become poll vote.
watchers, they need to do whatever they can to make sure that we have fair elections,
that our voices are counted, and that whoever is in leadership next understands that this country
is such a unique place in the world, and there is no place like this.
Dr. Kat Lindley, thank you. We'll talk again. The thing that you can do right now is educate yourself.
Go to global COVID summit.org. Global COVID summit.org. If you live in New Hampshire, there is a
vote on bill 1156 on Thursday, it must pass and stop the federal government from giving the state
sovereignty away. Your doctors will not be able to speak out. Your doctors will be silenced,
and we will be controlled by the World Health Organization. Something really run by China
and the United Nations. I don't know. I'm not really for it.
wake up America.
Doctor, thank you very much for joining us.
Rough Greens, if you consider your dog to be part of the family and that means love and affection, then yes.
It means more than that.
It means responsibility.
My dog, Uno, I love him so much.
I take the responsibility for his well-being and health, and so does my wife seriously.
And he was just not eating.
And the big thing that I wanted from Rough Greens is, will my dog eat?
Well, he licks the bowl clean now.
And he gets the nutrients, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, probiotics, omega oils, all of the things.
If it's good for your dog, it's most likely in rough greens.
I thought he was getting all of this stuff.
But I will tell you, I saw a massive, massive difference in my dog.
Naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black created this so you could sprinkle it on your dog's food.
And they know your dog's going to love it.
They wanted you to have the first trial bag for free.

Today's newsletter, and really in the last week or so, the news, if you are somebody that wants to be prepared mentally, physically, spiritually, you need to really pay attention to the news.
I know, because I live it, I don't want to pay attention in the news.
I don't want to read.
I used to read all kinds of nonfiction books.
I'm reading fiction books now to escape from the reality of what's really happening,
just to give my brain a rest a little bit.
But you have to know what the news is because it's becoming critical,
because so many things are happening.
When you listen to this entire podcast or broadcast today,
you'll have a scope of what's coming our way.
And in looking at today's news, it's a straight and narrow path to be able to navigate these waters.
And I don't know if you've ever actually been in a straight where you have to navigate through that water.
I've only done it once. I was on a big boat.
We were in the Bahamas and we were going someplace, some pink, you know, sand island or something.
and this large boat needed to have a boat in front of it,
and all hands were on deck because they had dug this straight out.
And so right by the shoreline was this very narrow path that the ship could go.
And if it missed anything, it would get stuck.
And so every hand was on deck,
and they were all looking off to the side.
And they would be shouting up to the captain.
Five feet, five feet, five feet, five feet, four feet.
And it was a little nerve-wracking, you know, not dangerous, but we'd be stuck.
And our journey would be over.
That's where we are.
Straight and narrow path.
Straight is not spelled like a straight line.
A straight is very different, and it's really difficult to navigate.
Now is the time that we need to be very, very aware of our surroundings.
You know, I said there's going to come a time where you're going to need the constant companion of the Holy Spirit.
And when it says, stop, turn around, go away.
That's right now.
that's happening right now and if you're not asking should i go here should i do this if you're not
listening to that still small voice in you start listening and obeying it will get stronger as you
you listen and obey do it no matter what it says sometimes it doesn't make any sense
stop you're going the wrong direction what stop
you're going the wrong direction.
You must start listening to that voice.
Get the newsletter, just today's.
We'll show you a giant cage is being made for the entire Western world.
And these things are coming in.
All of the bars are being put in one by one.
And we're going to go through a few of them.
The World Health Organization is one.
that can happen by June.
And they know exactly what they're doing.
That's why they're calling it anything but a treaty,
so it doesn't have to go through the Senate.
So if everybody was jumping off a cliff, would you do it too?
Yeah, Mom, yeah, I would.
You know, this is such an interesting phrase right now
because one of the righteous among the nations,
somebody who saved Jews during World War II,
told me, you don't understand.
We weren't suddenly righteous.
We didn't change.
That was the point.
We didn't change.
We just remembered what was true and tried to stop everybody else from going over the cliff.
Don't jump off the cliff with everyone else.
Change the things in your life right now that can buy us more time, help us in the fight,
or make us better people.

What?
I mean, I don't even think I understand it.
I mean, it's like, it's crazy.
It's crazy.
So we're trying to understand.
it and then apparently
this is
not any place else so we'll
have that. If we
understand it, we don't know even the
ramification and we're like, wait,
it is so bizarre. It is
so bizarre. Strange world right now.
God heavens.
All right. In the show prep today, available
at glenbeck.com,
United States faces increasingly
fragile world order,
says our spy chiefs.
No.
The U.S. intelligence agency said on Monday the country faces an increasingly fragile world order.
Really? I'm quoting them. An ambitious but anxious China, a confrontational Russia,
some regional powers such as Iran and more capable non-state actors are challenging longstanding rules of the international system as well as U.S. primacy within it.
Oh, okay, good.
China is providing economic and security assistance to Russia as it wages war in Ukraine.
By supporting Russia's industrial base, it also warns that China could use technology to try to influence this year's elections.
China may attempt to, may attempt to influence the U.S. elections in 2024 at some level because of its desire to sideline critics of China and magnify U.S.
societal divisions.
Okay, so interesting.
So China sounds like a real problem, right?
I mean, we're debating whether or not we should have TikTok.
I mean, TikTok is an absolute nightmare.
TikTok is waging cognitive warfare.
Remember we talked about this?
We have the U.S. government waging cognitive warfare on
us, the citizens, and China is doing it well, as well.
But TikTok is really doing a number on our kids.
The average American using TikTok spends how many minutes a day on it?
Good God.
If it's over one, we are-
82 minutes.
Every day.
That's the average.
And each video is how long?
Like six seconds.
Yeah, six seconds.
The company, uh, bite dance, which is TikTok, also makes moves.
Watch carefully, is located right by the headquarters of the Ministry of State Security.
So this is convenient because ByteDance while streaming billions of videos onto our screens via TikTok
is also spearheading an artificial intelligence infrastructure that is run by the Chinese
intelligence service.
So it's not an entertainment company.
It is part of the military intelligence industrial complex of China.
And this algorithm is made to keep people glued to their phones.
The Communist Party has said that the algorithms of TikTok is a national security asset.
Interesting.
So you have TikTok doing this.
Military strategists in China are saying we need mind superiority through perception manipulation via propaganda by changing how people look at the present,
cutting off a people's historic memory by warping their view of their own country's past so people will be open to changing their
views. Changing the paradigm of thinking by targeting people to change the way they view problems
and thereby changing their belief, deconstructing symbols, getting people to reject certain
traditional symbols and therefore modifying a nation's identity. We've got our own people in our
own country trying to do all of those things. When you're taking down the statues, when you're
reimagining history.
What do you think you're doing?
You're dismantling our narrative so we are more likely to collapse.
Here's the kicker, according to the Chinese Communist Party.
The ultimate goal is to manipulate a country's values and to achieve strategic goals without an actual overt military battle.
So they are trying to destroy us without ever.
sending a Chinese bullet our way. And we're playing footsie with them. Meanwhile, we are also having
everything built by them. Chinese crane manufacturing company at the center of a congressional
espionage investigation denied posing a threat to the United States national security. Here's what
happened. At the seaports, China bills ship to shore cargo cranes. Those are those giant cranes.
you saw Tom Cruise operating one in War of the Worlds.
You know, there's kind of like these big, you know,
you shaped kind of devices and the crane operator sits at the top.
Well, they found spying devices in all the cranes they were making.
And China was like, what that?
You're kidding me.
That was, well, we didn't mean anything by that.
No, they're just spying on our ports.
I don't know.
Trojan horse sound familiar?
So I go back to what they were saying yesterday with the spy chiefs.
The threats reported noted that trade between China and Russia has been increasing since the start of the Ukraine war
and that Chihidees exports of goods with potential military use rose more than threefold since 2022.
So they're helping Russia.
They are partners with Russia.
Republican House of Representative Speaker Mike Johnson, an ally of former President Donald Trump,
has so far refused to call on a vote that would provide 60 billion more for Ukraine.
The measure has passed the Democratic-run Senate.
Why would we want to get into a bigger war with Russia when we now know China's in bed with them?
And our real enemy is China.
Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns
said continued support for Ukraine would send a message to China.
Oh, would it?
It's our assessment that Chinese leader Xi Jinping was sobered by what happened in Ukraine.
The crisis in Gaza is a stark example of how regional developments have the potential of broader, even global implications.
They noted attacks by the Houthi militias on shipping and said the militant groups, Al-Qaeda and ISIS,
inspired by Hamas
have directed supporters
to conduct attacks
against Israeli and U.S. interests.
Well, that sounds good, right?
We should send more money
over to Iran.
After a protester
interrupted the hearing with shouts about the need
to protect civilians in Gaza,
they turned to protecting
the Palestinian enclave.
The reality is there are children
who are starving. They're malnourished
as a result of the fact that humanitarian assistance can't get to them.
Whose fault is that?
Whose fault is that?
It's very difficult to distribute humanitarian assistance effectively unless you have a ceasefire.
Uh-huh.
Emotions rose in the hearing as some senators discussed immigration across the U.S. border with Mexico.
Notice immigration is nowhere.
Nowhere.
Senator has to bring it up.
Hey, what about immigration?
and then the tensions rose.
FBI director Christopher Ray expressed concerned,
now listen to this because I don't understand it,
concerned about terrorism implications
from potential targeting of vulnerabilities at the border,
noting rising threats from Americans
inspired by Islamic groups and other foreign militants
since the Hamas attack on Israel on October.
7th. So are we talking about those Americans that are, I don't know, in Dearborn?
What Americans are we talking about? Are we talking about those damn mega-maga, monstrous
mega-Trump supporters that are somehow or another inspired? Who is he talking about?
Well, he said the domestic threat has gone to a whole new level. Okay, I'm, I'm, I'm
all for getting rid of extremists. I'm all for making sure they don't hurt people. But who are
the extremists? Because I know you never want to say the word Muslim, but anybody who believes
in the Constitution seems to be on a list right now. Also, we found out yesterday in another
report that the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, and other intelligence agencies,
are working together with gaming companies to root out so-called domestic violent extremists.
Now, okay, that doesn't sound constitutional, does it?
And here's why I say this.
I've told you before that my son was being groomed online, and it was through a game.
and in the days I trusted the FBI, we called the FBI, they came over, they caught the guy, knew exactly who it was, and the reason why they knew who it was is because everything that is said on the games is recorded. Everything. Did you know that? I didn't know that until the FBI said they needed his gaming box. Why?
Because every conversation is recorded.
So I just like a little more information on what the government is doing with the gaming companies.
What information are they giving?
Because the gaming companies spoke off the record.
They didn't want to be identified.
But they spoke off the record that, yeah, we're giving up information.
What information?
By the way, you know, the whole border thing, wide array of dangerous threats, wide array of dangerous threats.
Meanwhile, the Italian police have arrested three Palestinians allegedly planning terrorist attacks in Italy.
And what are we doing?
The DOJ, the Department of Justice, has just issued a gag order that requires immigration judges to seek department approval before.
speaking out publicly on anything regarding the border.
So we're now silencing the speech, the First Amendment right of our judges.
I don't know.
Starfield, which direction is it running?
Towards freedom or away from freedom.
Back in a minute.

Mike Lee on X yesterday said,
it's time to abolish the TSA.
Airlines can and will secure their own planes
if a federal agency doesn't do it for them.
They'll do a better job than the TSA
without undermining the Constitution
and with less groping, showing more respect for
passengers. I saw this and then the comments underneath were all the same. Oh, you're going to let a
private company do it? Yeah, you know the one airport that has a private company. I think there's only
one in America that chose because they didn't trust the government, San Francisco, that private
company is known in test after test after test to do a better job than any of the other airports
that have TSA. So yeah, yeah. The airlines are really kind of.
of motivated to make sure that nobody gets on that shouldn't get on. The government in the
meanwhile is just giving people a free pass. Oh, you came across the border illegally. We don't
really know who you are. Come on in. We're going to put you on a plane. So yeah. And I wonder,
I haven't talked to Mike about this, but I wonder why he's suggesting this now.
Is he as concerned as, I don't know, I and others are, that the state is growing so powerful
and that TSA is just a, just another, you know, brown shirt or jackbooted thug
organization that could spring out of whatever they're actually building in Washington?
I don't know. I don't know. We should have him on, but I thought that was very interesting.
the way, one dead after the Mexican cartels opened fire on illegal immigrants who were utilizing
an Uber to cross into the United States on our southern border. Apparently, they didn't have
permission from the drug cartel. They didn't pay the tax to the drug cartel, so they just opened,
fired, killed one, injured a bunch of other people. The Border Patrol says that happens all the time.
You can't cross without the drug cartel's permission. And thank you, Biden.
administration for making all of that great stuff, including the money-making possibility for the
drug cartels, the fact that they actually have laws, you know, drug cartel laws, that they're
enforcing, but we don't.

so an amazing
amazing statement from a governor
the governor of Alaska, Mike Dunleaving.
He said the Biden administration has sanctioned Alaska more than they have Iran.
I'm going to go through some of those sanctions on Alaska in 60 seconds.
First, real estate agents, I trust.com.
One of the things that I value the highest in my life is trust.
I work hard so people will trust me.
I want to be able to trust the people around me.
And sometimes they fail, sometimes I fail.
But it's the ones who are working hard every day to make sure that their word is their bond.
It's important when the stakes are really high.
If you're trying to buy or sell a house, the process is so complicated.
You need to be able to trust somebody that they are actually working for you.
They're the best in your area.
And I'm going to give you the best deal and find the best.
deal. Fortunately, for you, I happen to own a business called Real Estate Agents I Trust,
and I named it that because they first have to be people that I trust. Let me tell you,
when you trust your real estate agent, you will then have trust for the inspectors, the appraisers,
the home repair contractors, the photographers. You will be able to know you're talking to somebody
who relates to the world like you do, and my company has dedicated 100% to pairing,
you up with a real estate agent that you can trust. We have been buying and selling and helping people
just like you, helping this audience for over 10 years, and billions of dollars in sales. It's real
estate agents.I trust.com. Real estate agents, I trust.com. Hopefully we don't have a problem
with the time difference, but we're waiting for the Governor Mike Dunleavy to call in from the
great state of Alaska.
The sanctions on Alaska, when you look at the map of Alaska and you see what the federal government is done, it's like where you can actually be free is the size of a postage stamp.
It is remarkable what they are doing to the state of Alaska.
And meanwhile, they're just letting Venezuela, everybody else just, oh, no sanctions on you.
Go ahead.
Pump oil.
Pump oil.
Anyway, we'll talk to him as he calls in.
I guess we should update you.
There is the hearing today on the guy who gave President Biden a pass saying,
oh, you know what, he's just a kind old man who's just forgetful.
Yeah, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.
Yeah.
Yeah.
the transcript has actually been released
and the transcript is a little shocking
I didn't think it was shocking
at all actually I've watched Joe Biden for multiple years
and this is about how I think he is in private
now it's weird because the
portrayal of Biden by the media
and of course the Democrats is that
when he's in public he's a bumbling idiot
sure but you don't see him like we do
when he's behind the scenes,
he's always on top of everything.
In fact, it's so impressive.
None of these 25, 30-year-old aides
can even keep up with the guy.
I mean, it is incredible.
It's so stupid.
And if you believe that,
you literally will believe anything.
Yes.
Anything.
But I thought some of the transcript was interesting.
Can I give you some of this?
This is from the people were talking about
how he couldn't remember dates.
And I think it's overblown after reading the transcript.
You make up your own mind.
Here's Joe Biden.
He said,
this is from the New York
This is actually the part of the
New York of the transcript of the New York Times
She wanted you to know.
Why did you occur?
Biden
Quote, well
um
I
I
I
I
I don't know
This is
what
2017,
2018,
2018 in that area
he's
her answers, yes, sir.
Remember in this time frame,
my son is
either been deployed
or is dying.
It's 2017?
2017, 2018, Glenn.
When did he die?
2015.
Oh, whoops.
So he's either deployed
or dying in 2017 or
18.
And he says,
is either been deployed or dying,
and so it was
and by the way,
there were still a lot of people at the time
when I got out of the Senate
that were encouraging me to run in this period
except the president.
Which is just sad that he has to admit this.
And I'm not,
and that's not a mean thing to say.
He just thought that she had a better chance
of winning the presidency than I did.
Says quite a bit.
The most hated woman in all of politics.
Ah, she's a better bet.
And so I hadn't, I hadn't at this point, even though I'm at Penn, I hadn't walked away from the idea that I may run for office again.
But if I ran again, I'd be running for president.
And, and so what was happening, though?
What month did Bo die?
Oh God, May 30.
And then all of the lawyers step in at this point, White House lawyer, 2015.
2015,
2015.
Unidentified male speaker,
2015.
And he says,
was it 2015?
He had died?
Unidentified male speaker.
It was May of 2015.
Biden.
It was 2015.
Biden's personal lawyer.
Or I'm not sure the month, sir.
I'm not sure.
That was the year, though.
Another person jumping in.
That's right.
Mr. President.
It was 2015.
All these other people remember
when his Biden's son died.
And he said,
and what happened in the meantime is
that as
and Trump gets elected
in November of 2017
question mark
unidentified male speaker
2016 we have actually elections every
four years yeah he doesn't know that's always an even
number yeah you know without question
he's only been in government his entire life
so how would he know that
that's you know of course that's just the Senate
2016
2016
all right so why do I have
2017 here
that's when you left office
January of 2017
says the White House counsel
yeah okay
but that's when Trump gets sworn in
January you see he's just repeating what other people
after he's wrong
people correct him and then he just repeats
what they're saying and
every person has seen this with an old relative
right like when you're in a conversation with them
they don't know what the answer is you tell them
and then they kind of just repeat it like helps them
kind of you don't know center themselves
on what's going on
When you don't have somebody to give you something to repeat, this is what that relative sounds like.
This is from yesterday cut one.
Tremendous amount of things you can cut.
It may be precisely.
Tremendous amount of things you can do, not cut.
He said, I will, but the bottom line is he's still at it.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
So you got that going for you.
Now, this is the guy who is, according to the governor of Alaska,
Mike Dunleavy, sanctioning Alaska more than he has sanctioned Iran.
Governor Dunleavy, welcome to the program.
Hey, Glenn, good morning.
Hey, good morning.
So I know it's really early for you.
Thank you for being on the program.
That's quite a statement to make.
Well, it is.
But if you look at the 55, 56 actions now, compared to the 19 actions,
that have been set against Iran, Saudi in 2005.
This is 55 actions since the Biden administration came into office
against one of its own states, a resource-producing state like Alaska.
And so it is serious.
It is real.
And many of us in Alaska viewed as an economic war on Alaska.
So 56 executive orders and actions targeting your state.
Can you go through some of them?
Oh, absolutely. So for example, in 2017, under the Jobs Act that was passed by Congress and signed it to law by President Trump,
now that required lease sales in ANWR, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the coastal plain area that was always up for oil production anyway.
Those leases were sold and then under the Biden administration, they unilaterally canceled them.
That's a violation of law. That's huge because that has one of the last,
remaining large oil and gas finds, probably in North America, that was taken off the list.
Offshore oil leases in the Arctic, off the list.
13 million acres in NPRA.
Now, NPRA, National Petroleum Reserve, up in Alaska, that was founded over 100 years ago under President Hardy,
its sole purpose was to provide oil for the nation.
It was a naval petroleum preserve at first.
And so this is just a handful of incidents of what we call sanctions against Alaska that make it difficult for us to produce oil,
makes it difficult for us to mine, make it difficult for us to even get into the Tongest National Forest for timber,
the largest national forest in the United States.
We really can't get into that forest to harvest timber.
This is one thing that I have not experienced.
so I don't know if I understand it.
They're no longer building roads or maintaining any of the roads,
so you can't get in to haul lumber out.
And then they've also banned you from taking out mature lumber.
Is that right?
Old growth.
That's correct.
And not only are they not building roads,
and they dismantled all of the mills that were in southeast Alaska.
And this happened under the Clinton administration.
However, under President Trump, he began to restore it as an actual working force for timber, for mining, for recreation.
And then when the Biden administration came in, they once the ends closed it down again.
And so it's just been a series each year of different actions, different executive orders that are targeted against Alaska.
And Glenn, here's the interesting thing.
I don't think your listeners understand about Alaska.
we were the only state required at statehood in 1959 in our statehood act.
We were required to collectivize all the resources in Alaska under the government, under the state government.
And the reason for that is those that were contemplating allowing Alaska to become a state felt it had too small of a population,
about 150 to 200,000 people, to pay for itself through things like an income tax or statewide sales tax.
So they compelled us to collectivize those resources to develop those resources to pay for ourselves.
And that's the cruel irony of this whole thing is we were allowed to come into the state as long as we developed our resources.
And now we're being told we can't develop our resources, which means our viability as a state is in question.
I'm looking at the map of Alaska.
And by the way, you know this.
Alaska is far more beautiful than anybody could ever describe.
It is stunning.
And it's also enormous flying over Alaska.
You're like, when does this state ever end?
But I'm looking at the map.
You maybe have, maybe a third of Alaska is not protected now?
Yes, that's correct.
And as a matter of fact, you know, we had National Parks before 1980,
and in the waning days of Jimmy Carter, his gift to Alaska on the way out
was to build even more monuments and ruinous areas,
taking up millions and millions of acres off the table for Alaska's ability,
once again, to develop some of those resources.
And by the way, Glenn, we develop our resources, the little that we're allowed to
in probably the most responsible manner in the world.
And what really befuddled many of us up here is
the environmentalists obviously have their hooks in this administration,
and they don't want to have any development in Alaska,
but they're okay with it going overseas, two places like Iran,
two places like China, two places like Venezuela,
where the environment is not protected, human rights are not protected,
and as we know in the case of Iran,
they're now producing 3.74 million barrels of oil per day,
they're using some of that money to fund terrorism throughout the Middle East.
So none of that makes any sense to us.
We'll continue our conversation with the governor of Alaska in just a minute.
Stand by.
Since data reporting began back in January of 73, there have been three instances where
commercial bank credit has pulled back at least 2% from its all-time high.
First time, October 2001 during the dot-com bubble.
in March 2010, shortly after the recession, and just a few months ago in November of 23.
Wall Street and the economy aren't intertwined.
Recessions tend to negatively impact corporate earnings, which can then send the stock market plummeting.
We have to take our economy and our problems seriously.
We're going to talk a little bit about the incredible spending bill,
that has just been proposed by Joe Biden.
It is,
it's honestly,
it's like the insane asylum
is running everything.
The inmates in the insane asylum,
it makes no sense
and it will collapse our dollar.

10 seconds, station ID.
Welcome back to Governor Mike Dunleavy of Alaska.
So how is this impacting you as a state, your state funds,
and the people who do business up in Alaska?
Well, great question.
happens is there's a, there's a chill for investment in Alaska. In other words,
outfits that would otherwise be investing in mining, oil, gas, timber, they go other places
because the uncertainty caused by this administration and these actions level against Alaska,
once again, 55, I think it's 56 now, just make it such an uncertain situation that investors
don't want to come here. Our population right now is pretty much stagnant. We haven't grown in
last, you know, the last few years because of some of these actions. We have, many of our young
people are actually leading the state going to the lower 48 where there's more opportunity.
And so the impact on our, on our coffers is, is going to be significant. Right now, we get,
we run about 490,000 barrels through our pipeline. We were able to get Willow, the Willow project
passed, you're allowed to be put into play. And so with that,
investment, we should get another 140,000 barrels here in the next several years.
But nonetheless, when we're looking at the midterm, Glenn, in the long term, the prospects
don't look very good for investors, don't look very good for opportunity in Alaska.
And really what this appears to many Alaska is an attempt to just turn Alaska into a big national park
and absolutely hamstring the viability of the state going forward.
So it's an uncertain situation which causes a lack of investment and uncertainty.
I have to tell you, if Congress doesn't take their power back and take the unconstitutional power away from the administrative offices, we're not free and we have no way to fight this.
What are you doing to fight?
Well, we've had a lawyer up, unfortunately.
We've asked our legislature the past several years for millions and dollars for millions.
of dollars in funds, what we call our statehood defense, to fight against their own federal
government in order to slow down what these agencies are doing, in order to try and reverse some
of the things that these agencies are doing. And so we end up spending money, again, against
their own federal agencies, our own federal government. And, I mean, Glenn, you know that the federal
government has unlimited resources. Say it like Alaska does, does not. And so we're fighting them.
We're trying to enlist the help of other, you know, other states.
We've been talking with other congressmen and senators from other states explaining Alaska's
situation.
We're getting, I think, a good reception, especially from those on the Republican side.
I also have to say senators like Joe Manchin from a resource state like West Virginia
has been very sympathetic to the plight of Alaska.
He understands it well.
So we're trying to build up, we're trying to build up a group of legislators,
congressmen, senators, and other governors to understand what's going on with Alaska because once
it happens here, and if they're able to be successful at snuffing out the future of Alaska in terms
of a development state, there's no telling what they're going to stop. This is so concerning.
How can we help, Mike? I mean, the form of you giving me right now is a great way to get this out
to people. And people, people do you understand that, as you said, Glenn, Alaska is a very beautiful
And because of that, we do take care of it.
We have some of the strictest environmental regulations there is.
The state itself put them in.
So we know how to develop our resources.
But what the black administration is doing is just trying to kill off the whole enterprise.
And so just letting people know, sharing the 55 actions that Dan Sullivan, our senator had put together on that sheet, is going to be helpful.
And then we're going to be getting some congressmen and senators up here, hopefully this summer.
so they can see on the ground how well we take care of the state,
but also see the impact of what the Biden administration is doing.
So, Governor, let us know how we can help other than this.
Keep us informed on this because, as you say,
they pick on the one that nobody really is paying attention to,
and if they can do this to Alaska,
they'll do it to a lot of our states.
Thank you very much from Alaska, Governor.
Alaska, Governor Mike Dunleavy.
All right.
Let me tell you about the international fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Man, the friends of Israel seem to be dwindling.
Doesn't it feel that way?
You know, when the president says a two-state solution is the only solution,
that's a little concerning that he doesn't even understand what's going on over there.
The suffering of those in Israel is not, of course, being attended to.
Nobody is paying attention.
There are real hardships now, actual economic hardships.
People have lost their homes, et cetera, et cetera, in Israel.
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews are there.
They care.
Israel is in desperate need right now, and that's why I've partnered with the IFCJ today.
Every donation is urgently needed.
This is really it.
I mean, no government is helping Israel.
Support IFCJ.org right now.
IFCJ. Support IFCJ.

I want to tell you about a couple of things.
And the first one you may not know about.
It's in today's newsletter.
It is so important.
Earlier this month, a federal judge in Alabama held the Corporate Transparency Act as unconstitutional.
And then they granted the summary judgment against enforcement of this law went into effect earlier this year.
However, apparently the government is saying it only applies to.
the plaintiffs, not to everybody else.
What is the Corporate Transparency Act?
Does it affect you?
Well, yeah, maybe, maybe.
If you have an LLC or you are a company with fewer than 20 employees, then this is for you.
And remember, two years in jail if you don't comply.
When Congress passed in 2021, the National Defense Authorization Act, it includes,
included the bill, the Corporate Transparency Act.
Now remember, we're going to look at everybody's checks because we're looking for, you know,
we're looking for embezzlers and people who aren't paying their taxes and everything else.
Well, they weren't worried about people, you know, just everyday people.
Now this is another enforcement arm exactly like that, except this is for people, this is small business.
Only small business people.
Okay.
What it is is it forces anybody who is incorporated or has an LLC and fewer than 20 employees to disclose personal stakeholder information to the Treasury Department's criminal enforcement arm.
So now, like I'm on parole, I have to report to the criminal enforcement arm on what I'm doing with my money?
Large businesses, of course, are exempt.
The law applies only to companies with 20 or fewer employees.
Justifications for the law laid out in early versions of the legislation invoked a laundry list of alleged financial horribles
including money laundering and tax evasion, but also they added the word terrorism.
Oh, okay.
So they're coming after, they're not doing this to shut down small businesses.
No, definitely not.
They know small businesses have nothing to do but, you know, print money.
Oh, no, that's them.
Well, we make so much money because we're a small business and we just have nothing but a whole,
we have a legion of accountants. Oh no, that's big business. What they're doing is trying to make sure
that unions are everywhere. They're trying to put small businesses out of business. If you lose the
small business community in this country, you're toast. So the U.S. Treasury's Financial
Crimes Enforcement Network, FinCEN, has set up an online reporting system.
through which business owners are required to report information to FinCEN about the individuals
who ultimately own or control them. They started compiling reports for such beneficial ownership
information, B-O-I, on January 1st, with a deadline for compliance of January 1st, 2025,
or 30 days after the creation for companies registered following that date.
Is there a penalty for non-compliance?
Oh, of course there is. Of course there is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Civil penalties up to $500 for every day that the violation continues. And the person may be subject to criminal penalties of up to two years in prison and a fine of $10,000. Wow. I mean, that seems weird because I didn't even know about this. I think we talked about it at one point, maybe, didn't really.
register how many people were had to be employed I thought that it was for companies over 20
you know and then no small business or no large businesses so I knew that scam
gee I hope my accountants are aware of this hope your accountant is aware of all of this
because that would be wow that would be really bad you know when they ran those ads
for, you know, sign up for free health care.
And they made the free website.
Well, it wasn't free website.
Well, it was free for you to check, but it cost us, I think,
$30 million to build and it didn't work.
And they put all that ads, those ads out for Obamacare.
Why did they do that?
Because they wanted everyone to know about it
so you could get free stuff from the government.
But here's something that creates criminals
out of small business owners
and they're not advertising it.
Why?
What the hell is going on?
They're doing the same thing.
We just talked to the governor from Alaska.
What are they doing?
They're shutting it down bit by bit.
And if you think he's exaggerating,
he's not.
The 56 actions, executive actions,
executive actions from Biden is shutting that down to where they'll be just a national park that
nobody can go to. What are they doing here? They're shutting businesses down, small businesses. Try this one.
The independent contractor rule. What is that? Well, that went into effect yesterday. And that threatens
anybody who is independent. If you're a gig worker, what's a gig worker? Well, we think of
of gig workers as being Uber drivers or things like that. No, that's an independent contractor,
anyone who works when they want to work. You know who's a gig worker? An independent contract?
Truckers. Truckers are independent contractors. Now let me ask you something. If you are a trucking
company. You have 10,000 trucks, 10,000 truckers, all of them independent. You just hire them for
gigs. Hey, who wants to drive from here to Seattle? Who wants it? Put it up for a bed. Okay, great,
you take the truck. You can't do that. Now they have to hire and provide employment, employment benefits,
FICA, everything else.
Healthcare.
And they're now having to hire 10,000 truckers who, by the way, are going to demand those benefits because, you know, well, the unions will be there to organize.
And the Teamsters, oh, they're a bunch of cupcakes.
They're great.
What do you think's going to happen to the trucking companies?
Do you think their trucking companies are going to grow like leaps and bounds and trucking prices will come down?
Do you think in the transition it's going to be hunky-dory for everybody?
You think you're going to have food in your grocery stores?
Where is the freedom?
Independent contractors like it because they can choose their schedules.
They can choose their hours.
They can choose the clientele.
But if you're an employee, you are a slave to the employer.
I started the blaze.
I'm an independent contractor for, I don't know how many companies.
I started it because I didn't want a boss.
I'm my boss.
I'll choose who I work with, who I don't work with.
By the way, just to make it even easier for independent contractors.
and I'm sorry to say this.
I know Minneapolis.
You know, you guys are doing your best there.
Minneapolis City Council, you are so great.
You're just helping out the people who are gig workers.
Minneapolis, the Democratic mayor and the city council,
have decided that you have to pay the lift in Uber drivers more.
and I think it's, I think it's a $20 an hour or I don't remember what it is, but you're greatly putting an onerous amount of regulation on Uber and Lyft.
And they think it's going to help the drivers.
It's going to help the drivers.
Uber and Lyft have said, we'll leave Minneapolis if that's what you make us do because we can't make money.
so we're not going to do that and of course the mayor well i tell you what our yellow cabs are just as good
because you can open up a phone book and find the yellow cab and just call them you know you just get your
rotary phone out you know it's uh it's uh well i don't remember the number but the last three letters
are cab why are they doing that why are they doing that
I wonder if you could get a cabby union.
Wouldn't that be great?
And we could take freedoms away from other people.
I know a lot of people that work two jobs.
Some of them don't have to.
They just like, you know, when they're sitting at home and they're like,
ah, you know, I'm not doing anything.
Let's make some money.
And they become an Uber driver.
It's not their full-time gig.
Yeah, I was traveling this weekend in a bunch of Uber's and one mom
who homeschools her kids
was like, this is perfect for me.
I get to homeschool my kids
and then at night I can go out and drive around.
I can do all that stuff on our own time.
And then my husband, you know,
when he goes and does that
when I have the kids and
we're able to kind of like make a whole schedule
work just based around this thing
that of course now...
Oh, they're getting ripped off. They're getting ripped off. They should join a
union. They didn't feel like they... She should be in a yellow cab.
She doesn't know. She's not smart enough. The people in Washington are
smart enough to know. So she can't make her own decisions for herself. No, of course not. The city council
knows. Okay. They know. They know her life. They know what's best for all of us. Does anybody see
the box that is being built? And it is being built on almost every front. And if we don't
connect with other people other than just us and show them what is. And show them what is.
is being built in reasonable ways by meeting people where they live.
If we lose this election, that box becomes a cage.
And America is fundamentally transformed.
You can't take out the small businessman.
You can't take out the gig workers.
You can't start just putting people in jail and still have America.

The Glenn Beck Program.
We'll be right back.
I looking at this budget.
President Biden unveiled his election year budget pitch Monday,
calling for $5.5 trillion tax increases
by raising rates on the wealthy in corporations,
while spending $7.3 trillion on defense, federal benefit programs,
affordable housing, student debt cancellation,
among other proposals.
So I'm just trying to,
try because he is going to spend 7.3 trillion in one year that's what the budget is calling for that and that
seems in line with just another typical massive spending increase like in 2023 we spent 6.1 trillion so what
were we spending in 2019 oh no you don't want to know that yeah it's like 3 trillion Glenn I don't think
you want to know that answer what was it it was 3.5 trillion dollars in 2019 3.5 we have doubled that's a lot
way. I don't even, I mean, I want to make sure I understand. This is not, I'm not happy with 3.5. No, no, no, no. I know that. That's when we were saying we need to cut the budget. Right. But it was 3.5. We were saying it long before that, but yes. Yes, yes. Now it's 7.3 is the proposed budget. From 3.5 to 7.3. They've doubled the size of spending.
And this isn't exactly right, but basically that's doubling the size of government. Yes, it is. I mean,
It's not exactly right, but most of these programs do require the government to expand.
So it's mainly in hiring and government projects done by government people.
And a 5.5 now...
Wait, hold on one second.
I may have misstated that.
You said revenues or you're saying outlays.
So we're spending, we spent four.
I should be clear, we didn't actually spend what we took in.
We took in 3.5 trillion in 2019.
We spent 4.4 trillion.
So hasn't quite doubled yet.
It's only up like, what, 70%.
So sorry if I missed date of that.
From a high, at all time high, to almost doubling it.
Now, he's calling for $5.5 trillion in new taxes, and he promises none of that will come to you.
Of course.

We have Mike Row in coming in just a second.
It's good to have him here.
He's probably a big fan of American Giant.
American Giant is a company that believes in making things here in America.
And they rescued a company about 13 years ago.
It's a clothing factory in North Carolina.
It was closing down.
The guy who runs American Giant was like, that can't happen.
We've got to make clothing here.
And they understand that when they bought the factory, they put new equipment in, they trained everybody.
That helped the community thrive, gave people a sense of honor and integrity.

America,
welcome to the
Glebeck program.
This hour,
the one, the only
Mike Rowe,
joins us.
I bet he has a lot
to say about,
you know,
what's going on
in America
and with our jobs
being shut down
with the government
coming after,
gig workers,
etc., etc.
I don't know.
Oh, in colleges,
that's a good idea
to send your kid
right to college,
especially in Ivy League
college,
that they'll
never pay off and they won't have a job to go to after they get that degree.
Oh, what is?
We're going to hear his point of view here in just a second.
I'm wondering if he disagrees with any of that.
Tunnel to Towers Foundation is our sponsor this half hour.
Tunnel to Towers' mission is to do good and make sure that we never forget the horrific events of September 11th.
That was 2001 kids.
In case you didn't know, ask your parents what it was.
It means never forgetting the soldiers and first responders who put their lives on the line then and ever since.
The foundation is committed to helping these heroes and their families,
and heroes like retired Air Force lieutenant Colonel Michael Cardoz.
This guy served his country for 20 years, two decades, received tons of accommodations, including a bronze star.
During his time overseas, he was exposed to the toxic burn pits.
and he contracted cancer and died.
Tunnel to Towers stepped in and paid off the mortgage for his family's home.
Enabling his widow and their six children to stay in the home,
this is really what they do best.
The Foundation helps Gold Star families,
and the families have fallen first responders here in the States,
as well as catastrophically injured heroes and homeless veterans.
This is really a group of people that do good,
and 95%
95 cents on every $1 that you would donate goes directly to these guys.
That's an astounding high percentage.
Donate $11 a month, will you, to tunnel to towers at T, the number 2t.org.
T2T.org.
Friend of the program, Mr. Mike Rowe.
How are you?
First of all, with regard to your sponsors,
excellent choices.
Thank you.
I love this foundation and at the risk of just shameless pluggery and one.
Wanton capitalism.
This is an American giant shirt.
Oh my gosh.
I have that shirt.
I think you wore it last time I was here.
And I thought, what are the odds that we'd show up looking like the Bopsie twins?
But you know Byard, he's a friend of mine.
I love him.
And I've had him on my podcast.
And he's featured in a new book that you'll love if you haven't seen it.
It's called Flannel.
Yep.
And it's all about what it really takes to make this shirt.
Shockingly difficult.
It is amazing, brother.
I mean, I know you know that.
You gave me a shirt 10, 11 years ago when you were doing...
Oh, 1791.
Yeah, I still have it.
It was like a canvas work shirt.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And ever since then, man, I've been obsessed with trying to better understand the drama
and the trauma of getting textile manufacturing back in this country.
It's mind bogg.
If companies like Levi's would do 5% of their manufacturing here in America,
America would change.
Yep.
Would change.
For sure.
No interest in it at all.
I mean, when you really start to peel back the layers, and this is, I don't know if this is
on your agenda of stuff to talk about, but it is, I just did a whole thing on the toothpick.
Like the business, we used to be the toothpick capital of the world.
We're very proud of it.
It was a giant industry.
up in Maine, you know, white birch.
I mean, the book on it is amazing.
And when you slowly see the way
that we basically gave up on toothpicks,
you can start to understand the way we gave up on textiles.
And then you start asking questions like,
well, what hope does Detroit really have?
Like if we can't get the splinter right,
if we can't get a shirt right, right?
So there are no small things.
Anyway, what American Giants doing,
I think is, I think it matters,
because they're 13 years at it now, right?
So that's, you know, good for you for having them on it.
I know.
I love them.
I love them.
So, Mike, let's just talk about the state of the world because we are being boxed.
If you're a small business guy, you have under 20 employees.
You now have a transparency act where you'll spend two years in jail.
If you don't tell the federal government the Treasury Crimes Division,
everything that they want to know.
I don't know how much that's going to cost the small businessman.
And just time alone.
Plus, you have the Pro Act,
which has now just been done through the Department of Labor.
We don't vote on anything anymore.
It's just a new guidelines.
Yes, yes, new guidelines.
Yeah.
And what is that going to do to, when we think gig economy,
we think, you know, Uber drivers, et cetera?
No, no, no.
truckers alone.
Will we have groceries at our stores?
50,000 in California alone.
50,000.
I had a guy on my podcast called Tom Odom,
who's one of these truckers,
and he's been written about in the press,
and I was just so interested in his story.
In fact, I interviewed him while he was in his truck
driving across the fruited plane, you know,
and he just pulled over,
and we had this amazing conversation.
But people,
I like to talk about it in terms of unintended consequences,
but I realize now that I might be giving too much credit.
Way too much credit.
Right.
But look, I'm trying to stay in whatever lane is left to me.
But when I first saw AV5...
They'll be taking that lane away from you soon.
It's getting narrow, man.
It's very narrow.
It's getting narrow.
When I first saw this thing rear its ugly head,
it was, to your point,
aimed toward the gig economy in Silicon Valley, mostly Uber and Lyft.
And then it just grew and grew and grew graphic artists, writers, cinematographers, dancers,
so many people.
And I'm like, how many are actually going to be impacted?
And then the question was, how many people are actually freelancing right now?
And the answer is north of 70 million in the whole country.
And so what the drafters of AB5 asked us to believe initially was that huge numbers of workers were being shamelessly victimized by greedy and rapacious capitalists who should have hired them as employees and therefore opened the door to benefits and so forth.
Now, did that ever happen?
Yeah, I suspect it's a big country and there's exceptions to every rule.
But the number of people who were adversely affected prior to this versus the number of people who have now lost the freedom to work the way they want is mind boggling.
And it happened in California, of course.
And to your point, it's happened and is happening right now.
And when people realize what this means, you know, you want to set your own schedule?
Forget it.
You want to eat what you kill?
Forget it.
We don't want to think that way anymore because that person might fail.
And if that person fails, well, then the narrative goes.
We just can't tolerate that.
I'm sure you've been to Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.
I was just over there for the first time.
And the new king was in the castle.
And he's got this whole wing by himself.
And he lands his giant helicopter right there in his backyard.
And I've never been, like I've been to, you know, the American castles.
And I've never had a problem with it.
Never.
I walked through that castle and it pissed me off the entire time.
Yeah.
Because I thought there is no one in this country that could ever build this
except the one who's cornered the market.
Right.
You know, there's no opportunity, none, to actually be.
something because the government has you so pigeonholed and people just accept it and I don't
want to be like that I don't want to live in that kind of country you know if there's no
risk there's no reward well there's the four-letter word right risk I guess risk and
maybe debt are the the only four-letter words right now that I think are truly for sale you know
we have to have honest conversations about both of those things the willingness to accept
risk is the fundamental bedrock of freelancing. Right. And not everybody is willing to take that risk.
Some people just want a stable job. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Nothing wrong with that.
It's so similar. I think the reason this thing has become such an issue for me is because it
translates perfectly into a four-year education versus a trade school. This idea that we have to put
our thumb on the scale. This idea that one has to be elevated at the expense of the other
is precisely what's informing the pro act. We're not saying that it's good to be an employee.
We're saying it's so good that if you don't do that, then you're doomed. You are engaging in a
level of behavior that's so risky. You're actually posing some sort of existential threat, not just to
yourself, but to your family, to your neighbor, and so forth. So it's amazing how we can't simply put
all the options on the table and let the grown-ups decide what fits best. I got to tell you,
you say, even in today's world, where universities are taking our children and molding them
into the exact. Woodrow Wilson said, the job of a university is to make a man the most unlike his
father as possible. That was his goal. And that's really kind of the goal now, I think, in many,
places. And so many people will say, because I've got two teenagers, are they going to go to
college? No, probably not. One of them, maybe. The other one, trade school, maybe. Oh,
I don't know. It's going to be up to them. And what is the value of a big expensive $250,000 education if you're not going to use it?
If you don't have something, if you're just like, wow, I think I'm going to do this. A, the world is changing so fast. We don't know what jobs are going to be there.
I worry that I'm the product of a liberal arts education. I got one. It served me well. I'm glad I got one. It served me well. I'm glad I got one.
Did it lead directly to my chosen field?
No, it did not.
But it comes in handy every single day.
And mine consists of two years at a community college and another couple years at a university.
And when I finished in 84, the whole thing cost $12,200.
All of it.
Today, same schools, same course loads.
92 grand.
Now, nothing in the history of this country has increased faster than the cost of a
year degree.
Bitcoin.
Bitcoin.
Well.
Or, but then fall and then back and it's not.
Right.
I know.
I know.
Right.
I mean, look, it's, but, I mean, really, if you look at health care, if you look at real
estate, if you look at food, and if you look at energy, the big four, those things
have all been eclipsed by the cost of a four-year degree.
But still, we can't help ourselves.
Still, we've told this whole generation, if you don't get one, you're screwed.
Right.
And that's criminal.
it's a shame because my liberal arts education right now is on this thing.
Yes, all of it.
I've got access to 98% of the known information right now for free.
Yeah.
Okay.
But still, still we charge.
During lockdowns, Columbia raised their rates.
NYU raised their rates.
And we still paid it.
Right.
So look, it's easy to look at the Ivy League, especially now, and point to all.
sorts of embarrassments. But it's not even about that. It's just this bigger thing that's happening
where a whole chunk of our workforce is tied to a whole chunk of our education system that has
become the proximate cause of derision. I said to my son, where did you learn that? He said,
I can audit a course at MIT online.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I mean, you have the opportunity unlike any human has had, and yet it's a bad thing.
I want to talk a little bit about what you're doing with MicroWorks here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about preborn, nearly 65 million innocent have been aborted since Roe versus Wade.
Now that Roe is gone in some states, and this drives me out of my.
mind. It's up to the voters in each state. That's what the Supreme Court said. It doesn't belong in the
hands of a bunch of guys in black robes. Let the people decide in each state. That's what that's
about. Anyway, we can't erase the past, but we can do what we can do. The Ministry of Preborn is
working on this every day, and what they do is they introduce an expecting mother to her unborn baby
through free ultrasound.
It doubles the chance that she's going to choose life.
Here's the amazing thing.
For so long, people have been shouting, baby killer, baby killer,
68% of the moms who have abortions, they don't want to have one.
They just feel alone and trapped and don't know what to do.
And many times, they are alone.
And they just, what do we do?
They regret it.
68% wish they didn't do that.
Okay.
So why don't we love the mom and help her?
her out and be there for her first two years. Make sure we give them all the baby clothes and the
books and the help and the food. Whatever they need, let's be there for mom. We save two people,
the baby and mom. One ultrasound is $28 or 140 will help rescue five baby lives. Abortion doesn't
stop so we can't either. Just dial pound 250 on your cell and say the keyword baby. That's pound
250 keyword baby or go to preborn.com slash Beck.
Preborn.com slash Beck sponsored by preborn.

Station ID.
So your big push for a long time is you can go to college, but you don't need to go to college.
That's right.
And you've been, I mean, you know, started with dirty jobs.
Mm-hmm.
Now you are, I mean, your foundation has raised a ton of money.
How many people are you putting through college?
So far.
We've got close to 2000 who we've helped master a skill that's in demand.
Microworks began really just as a PR campaign in 2008.
Dirty Jobs was at its absolute height.
The whole country seemed to be unemployed, but everywhere we went, we saw these help wanted signs.
So it seemed pretty clear.
There was some other narrative going on.
And this idea that you could fix unemployment by simply creating more jobs was actually a canard.
You know, today we have close to 10 million open jobs.
We've got $1.7 trillion in student loans.
And we're still sending the same basic message that we always have.
This path is the best.
Everything else is going to lead to some sort of vocational consolation prize.
So that PR campaign morphed into a trade resource center.
And now we're a scholarship fund.
We've raised about $9 million and given it out.
You're doing another million this year, aren't you?
Right now as we speak.
Microwworks.org, if anybody's listening with a kid or a grandkid or you yourself want to learn a skill that's in demand, we can help and we have helped.
But it's really a means to an end, Glenn.
The scholarship program in and of itself is great.
But what it's done for me is it's given me a chance to circle back and talk to people who five, six years ago got a welding certificate with our help or a plumbing, right?
And when you ask them the question today, how's it going?
You get amazing answers.
Now, some of them are still plumbing.
They're in a strong union.
Hang on just a second.
Still plumbing.
Do you know what plumbers may?
You do.
I do.
Plumbers make a really good living if they bust their ass.
They make a really good living.
And if you're back to that freelance model we were talking about, you can work as much as you want.
You can set your own schedule.
you and you are busy.
I know a lot of guys,
both electric, plumbing,
heating and air conditioning.
You can basically work anywhere in the country right now.
I have to tell you, I had some,
I was building a house and had the plumbers there and I was talking to him.
The guy's like, I can't get anybody to help me.
He's like, I'm aging out soon.
I don't have to do this.
He said, I've been trying to get all the kids in my family to,
hello, good living here.
Here's the math.
for every five tradespeople who retire this year, two will replace them.
Jeez.
That's been happening for 15 years.
Now, you know where this is going.
Yeah.
In fact, we're here right now.
It's happening right now.
So what I'm trying to do with my little slice of the internet is make sure I can tell the
stories of the people that I just described.
Because, I mean, I can tell a decent story, but I'm not persuasive to a 25.
year old or a 20 year old. They need to see somebody who looks like them and talks like them
who is living debt free and making 150 grand a year. And I've got a long list of those people
and they are very persuasive. So going back to your first question, you know, how do I feel about
the country? What I think needs to happen. I've got a list of things. But for me, somewhere near the
top is a persuasive campaign. And that's not even the right word. But we need
persuasive voices talking in a credible way about the value of all forms of education and the
absolute criticality of not ignoring the part of our workforce that keeps these lights on because
it's only a matter of national security it really is man and so and so look here's the good
news and I'm not sure it's good you know sometimes things need to go splat right we've talked about
this before. And so rather than just having a conversation about, okay, this company's trying to
hire skilled tradespeople and they can't. And these people over here don't have a skill. We should
get them together. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's happening. But now the real conversation is how long do you,
Glenn, want to wait for an electrician? How long does Stu want to wait for an electrician when the
lights aren't coming on? There's a Simpsons on this very thing that I thought.
There's a Simpsons on everything. Yeah, there is. And a South Park, too. Okay, where do people go if they want to
find out more about the scholarships?
Microwworks.org.
We're always open.
We'll be taking applications through the middle of April.
We'll give away a million bucks in this tranche,
and we'll probably do it again later this year.
But, you know, baby steps, man.
You've got to push the boulder up the hill.
Micro, always pushing the boulder up the hill.
Thank you.
Maybe that.
So Jim, who lives in Arizona, he wrote in and he said,
I got to tell you, I used to have extreme lower back pain.
Nothing that I tried really ever touched it.
Then I heard about relief factor.
I tried to give it, you know, decided to give it a try. Relief factor works so well and so quickly.
It eliminated the pain, allowing me to function better than I had before.
Thanks so much for a relief factor. Jim, thanks for writing in. Thanks for giving relief factor a try.
It doesn't work for everybody. About 70% of the people who order it go on to order more month after month.
It is not something you're like, ow, I'm in pain. Let me take some.
This is a supplement that you take every day. And I got to tell you, it changed my life.
see how it can help you.

Welcome to the
Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
Ask Mike to hang around
for a few more minutes
because we were just having
some great conversations
off the air
about, you know,
the state of the world
and, you know,
I don't know.
Isn't it crazy
how many great conversations
you have during the break?
Yes.
Like in the course of your career.
Yeah.
Like if you could somehow
string all those together.
I know.
What is special that would be.
Yeah, it would be good.
It would be good.
Career ending.
Yeah.
I tend to save those for on the air.
Are you as sick of the hippies as I am?
I don't, you know, you can, sure.
But you can erase hippies.
Anybody who didn't get the memo regarding the time to leave the party.
Yeah.
I don't understand.
Well, I mean, I do understand.
I understand inertia and I understand fear.
And I understand all of the things that.
keep us in the well-worn path.
But we do seem to have forgotten that part of the political deal is you come in,
you make your promises, you do your thing, you do your best, you thank everybody,
you know, for their indulgence, and then you leave.
And you leave.
Go back to your farm.
Go back to whatever.
You don't leave.
I mean, best story of any president leaving office, Harry Truman, I love this.
He hasn't driven in years, okay, because he was vice.
president. Before that, he was a, I think he was a senator. And so he comes in and Bess is with him and they
pack up their clothes and they just put it in the trunk of his old Buick. Yeah. And he drives and he
stopped on the highway. Okay. Right. And the police come and best, he's driving Bess out of
his mind because he's not the best driver. And he's, you know, can you step on a little bit? Finally,
lights come on behind him.
And a cop comes up and said,
uh, registration and
Mr. President.
And he says, yes.
And she leaned over him, uh,
to look at the cop and said,
would you please tell him to speed up?
It was the first time he had ever driven on the highway.
And he just went back and that was it.
That was it.
Now presidents and senators,
congressman,
they just embed themselves and enrich themselves.
And it's, I hate it.
Well, I think it's, I think it's part of why so many people have just a general sense of, of, it's not even frustration.
It's, it's dread.
There's a sense of dread happening.
And part of it, I do believe, has to do with the fact that nobody got that memo.
No one knows when to leave.
No one wants to leave, it seems.
And I would say that equally on both sides.
Imagine being 23, 24, 25 years old and flicking around and just seeing these ancient bipeds just standing there as if they've been wound up going through motion after motion after it just, it, they dare you to care.
They wear you down.
Yeah, they do.
They dare you.
It's like in the last segment we're talking about the pro act and all that.
You know, they dare you to open a business.
They're double dog daring you.
And to the point where when you do find somebody who's willing to hang out a shingle,
where you do find somebody who's willing to run in an environment like this,
you have to ask yourself, what's wrong with them?
Why do I have my tongue suck on a flagpole?
It's what you feel like all the time.
Yeah.
So, I mean, I wouldn't give the keys to my car to most of these people.
I mean, that's my test.
Would you give your keys to your car?
If they were at your house and they're like, I got to run it.
Of course not.
Of course you wouldn't.
You wouldn't give it to Mitch McConnell.
You wouldn't give it to any of them.
Nope.
And yet.
And yet we sit here appalled, aghast, and we just watch it.
Yeah.
It's happening in front of us.
And we just watch it.
Watch it like the townspeople and Hans Christian Anderson's great story,
the emperor's new clothes.
We were just standing there waiting for somebody to go, hey, wait, he's, he's too old.
Yeah.
And not with age for entirely different reasons.
These two candidates that we have are so polarized.
And I think the average, help me out on this, I think the average person is sick of it.
They don't want to hate their neighbor.
They don't want to argue.
They just want to be left alone.
And just,
can we just not all just get along here, please?
You don't want to walk into a restaurant and be handed a menu.
And you don't want to look at the menu and see something that you're deathly allergic to.
And then something that in the past has only ever made you vomit.
Okay?
You don't want these choices, right?
Now, I say this with great respect to both candidates because, of course,
They have their supporters, obviously, but in a giant general way, I think the country might be saying, really?
Is this?
This is my party.
Is this the best my party can do?
This is my party.
Is this the best that party can do?
This is what we've done.
I don't think it's an allergic reaction.
I prefer the description of, you know, you open the menu, and it's a pile of dead bodies and a pile of crap.
and you're like, what do you have, sir?
You got to have one of them.
You got to eat one of them.
Have you tried the crap?
No, the way we prepare it, it's really, really good.
At least it's not a dead body.
Look, again, I'm certainly not trying to make trouble with either individual.
I'm saying that as a country, you know, if.
I think that's the way we feel.
Right.
It's like, what happened to my restaurant?
What happened to this menu?
Right.
What's happened?
Who moved my cheese?
Everything just like it's like an episode of punked.
Everyone's just kind of looking over their shoulder for the camera because surely, surely this must be some giant farce that's unfolding.
It's, it is, I think, impossible to be the Babylon B.
I mean, how do you, I mean, the stuff that we talked about today are like this, I mean, this would have been a joke.
That's right.
Five years ago, I would have written that as the punchline.
Yeah, well, you know what else?
Hey, you know, pretty soon they'll start.
They're doing it.
They're doing it.
Hey, God bless the VALOEN B.
Oh, I know.
Right?
I mean, there was a time when the onion picked up that load and then they dropped it.
And then the B came along.
Saturday Night Live, woof.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
But, you know, good news.
Saturday Night Live actually had, what was his name?
He was the guest host.
Oh, Shane Gillis.
Yeah.
last week or week before.
A couple weeks ago.
Yeah, I mean, and he's, he was actually funny and said things that you're not supposed to say anymore.
Single best Trump impersonator I've ever heard.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, he's, he's awfully good.
Yeah.
But, you know, I mean, you know, the one candidate that wouldn't be hard to impersonate is RFK.
He would be, I think that would just get tiring.
I mean, no offense to him or anything else and not talking about his politics.
Just, wow, that would be hard.
to listen to in a like an hour long state of the union.
You know, it's funny.
I was, I met him here in Dallas, actually, about six months ago.
Just ran into him.
And then we had a, we had a conversation not too long ago.
Where does one run into RFK?
Well, we were in a studio.
I was going into a studio over at TBN.
Okay.
And he was coming out.
And we kind of triangulated some things.
Yeah.
And he said, you want to get together sometime and have a chat?
I said, actually, I'd love to.
I don't know if you knew this.
I wrote an open letter to Barack Obama in 2008, and a very similar one to Mitt Romney,
Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump.
Didn't really do any good, huh?
Well, you know, it's funny.
I've had a different experience with all of them.
But the point of the letter and the point of my meeting with RFK was really to talk about the foundation,
to talk about work ethic, and to talk about the needs.
on some national level to to make a more persuasive case for all this stuff.
Yeah.
And what are your thoughts on him?
I think he's saying some things that the other guys aren't.
I like the idea that, well, I don't like it.
I hate it.
I hate the idea when we get to $50 trillion in the whole, the party's over.
There's no way we can service that kind of debt.
And there's no plan, it seems.
You know, what is the problem with that?
We have less than a minute.
What is the problem with that?
Is it that we just don't think we're going to ever have to pay it?
It's like a dream.
It is.
It's like falling down the stairs in slow motion.
Yeah.
It's good.
If we get there, for sure, there's just no math in the world that's going to allow us to be a country, right?
And I think it's important to talk about that.
You know, I like what he talks.
I like, I like ending the forever wars.
I think it makes sense to have that conversation.
It's amazing how the left and the right.
have switched places.
Unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
I like the whole war on obesity and chronic disease and diabetes and all the trillions of dollars
that are pulled in there.
I think he says things that are going to make a lot of people nod their head.
Now, we don't see eye to eye on the environment.
Right.
And there's a list of stuff, but it's another menu item.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They're in the same restaurant, but it is a different menu item.
Micro, thank you so much.

You're listening to the swing in sounds of
Glenn Beck. Sit tight, boys and girls. We'll be right back after these messages.
Things are feeling a little less human these days, aren't they? But isn't the whole point
of progress to make things more human? That's why, at TD, when we design a product, whether
it's an app for making trading easier or monitoring your account for fraud, we ask one simple
question. How does this help people? That's how we're making banking, more simple, more seamless,
and more intuitive.
But most importantly, that's how TD is making banking more human.
This is unbelievable.
They're questioning the guy who came out and said, you know, I have testimony from the president.
You know, he was a little befuddled and, you know, seemed like a nice old man with a bad memory.
They're now saying that he did that to hurt Biden's credibility.
and they're doing it by saying, remember when they said that he couldn't remember when Bo died?
He didn't even know when his son died.
Okay, that's what that's what the left is saying, that's not true.
He did.
And they're releasing, it was 2015 from president that they have that in the transcript.
Which is part of the transcript.
Yeah.
It was 2015.
When your son, it was 2015.
Okay.
They, just that line.
Stu, do you care to read the previous lines?
Oh, I'd love to.
You mean like when he says, well, this is what, 2017, 2018 in that area?
Remember, in this time frame, my son is either been deployed or is dying in 2017 or 2018, he says.
Okay.
Then the White House lawyers correct him and say, no, it was 2015, 2015.
Biden says, oh, was it 2015 he had died?
Yes, it was May of 2015.
Then Biden says, it was 2015.
that's where they pick up the transcript.
That's crazy.
They pick it up after he says 2018 was maybe the time.
Skip to the part where he doesn't know when he was vice president.
Somebody must have been packing this up and put it in a box because I didn't do it.
And her says, okay, do you have any idea where this material would have come from and where it got moved into the garage?
Biden says, well, if it was 2013, when did I stop being vice president?
Lawyer says 2017.
Oh, so I was vice president.
must have come from vice president stuff.
That's all I can think of.
Another section.
Biden says, my problem was I never knew where any of the documents or boxes were
specifically coming from or who packed them.
Just did I get them delivered to me?
So this is, I'm at this stage in 2009.
Am I still vice president?
His question.
Am I still vice president?
In 2009.
Now you might remember him beginning his time as vice president in 2009.
He's asking, was I still vice president?
president in 2009. He's not saying, was I vice president yet? Right. He, which he should know.
He's asking if he's still the vice president in 2009. It would have been better if he said,
was I vice president yet? But it's like everyone, Barack Obama, 2008 election. Like everyone would
know that. Now, you might know that, but that's not necessarily what Biden knew. He actually
talked about Trump being elected in November of 2017, because he didn't know it was 2006.
or 2017.
But I will say this article from the New York Times does summarize it well,
that he was clear-headed most of the time.
Now, first of all, is that the standard that we're looking for as president?
No, no.
Do you get a driver's license if you're coherent and clear-minded most of the time?
Now, first of all, no, but do you want a president who's clear-headed most of the time?
And is it part of like, is that the standard we're looking for?
Like, hey, most of the time he's coherent.
Like, no.
And then this is, the evidence, though, is dramatic.
And I will say this, Glenn.
The evidence they present that he was clearheaded most of the time is convincing.
It will persuade you that he's fine.
Here it is.
When Mr. Biden provided a lengthy description of the layout of his house in Delaware,
Mr. Hur observed that Mr. Biden appeared to have.
a photographic understanding and recall of his house.
Oh, of his house.
So he remembered what his house looked like, which proves he was clear-headed most of the time.
And photographic memory.
I got to tell you, he's lived in that house for how many decades.
Many.
Yeah, many decades.
I don't know.
And how, I mean, you know, I've lived in my house for under a decade.
And I got to tell you, sometimes I walk around and like, where's the bathroom?
Right.
Who can know?
And I just, I lift up the seat of the couch and I go to the bathroom there.
And my wife says, what are you doing?
And I'm like, what, is this not the bathroom?
Is this not the toilet seat?
And she's like, no, it's a living room.
And I'm like, I can't tell the difference.
I get lost.
I don't know.
It happens to people all the time.
The other day I just heard this like knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking, over and over again.
My wife was just walking into the wall over and thinking there was a hallway there.
But actually, no.
No, no hallway.
Wow.
And it's just typical for people to do that.
Well, you don't have a photographic memory and neither do I.
I don't.
I don't.
Usually, the average person needs a map for their own house.
Do you actually get credit for remembering what your house looks like now?
That's where the media is.
The media's like, hey, he did a great job remembering his own home.
They were kept there in the garage, which is right off the kitchen.
But again, does he have a photographic memory of his own house?
He didn't know any of these documents were there.
Of course, now we know he did know they were there, but he didn't know what was in the boxes.
So that's not really a photographic memory even of his own house.
