It's back in the saddle for a Monday on the Glenn Beck program. We're going to talk a little bit about what's happening at the White House or strangely not happening at the White House. They passed in the Senate a $90 billion bill for, you know, Ukraine and other various sundries, I guess. I don't know. Maybe there's some ladies lingerie in there as well. 90 billion is hard to spend. But they found a way to do it. We're going to talk to Mike Lee about that later on in the program.

Also, the Super Bowl last night. We found it fairly boring until the last couple of quarters. And the ads, $7 million for every 30 seconds. I think you could have put a little bit more work into it. We're going to look at some of the more controversial ads in 60 seconds. First, Lear Capital is our sponsor.

The truth is this, and I want to say this to you, from the bottom of my heart,

because I care about you. Don't forget when you turn 60, you need a colonoscopy. Not one of those homesets, which seems a little bizarre. No, a real colonoscopy. Okay. But in truth, seriously,

you are a great patriot. You are a leader of freedom fighters. Okay. All right. All right. Mark Levin would, okay. I'm not good.

I'm not good at these kinds of things. That's Mark Levin. I got a bunch of these from like everybody on my birthday. And it was way too much. It was really, really nice. It was an odd birthday. But I'll tell you about that later on. When we get past some of the important things like

the worst commercials on the Super Bowl. You know, Pat, did you find yourself paying attention to the commercials at all? Really? Not like I used to because they're just not worth it anymore. They just don't do Super Bowl commercials like they once did. You know, they're not. I don't, I don't. There were a few decent ones.

Some of them were okay. Some of them, I really liked the Paramount Creed commercial. I like that one. That's pretty good. there were a few that stood out a little bit, but for Super Bowl ads that you're paying $7 million to air, I think they could have been a lot better. Yeah, for one 30-second spot, yeah.

There were a couple that I did notice, and here's the first one, cut one, Pfizer. Tonight, I'm going to have myself a real good time. So far I'm thinking this is, Really good. Don't know who the advertiser is. They're making paintings come alive. They're singing a queen song.

Don't stop me now. Now I'm starting to go, who is this? There's nothing more fun than an MRI vaccine being injected into your arm. It's just a lot of fun. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Now you start to see the viruses and the viruses.

and the and the and the, and the, and the, the, the, the cures. And you're like, wait, this is Pfizer. Yeah. And the last person, the last person

that should be saying, don't stop me now, is Pfizer. No, no. No, no. We'd like to stop you right now. Then RF, RFK has been apologizing, to his,

family, the Super Pack put this commercial out for RFK. You want a man for president who's seasoned through and through, a man who's old enough to know. And young enough to do. Well, it's up to you. It's up to you. It's really worth with him, does it? 70. 2024 is responsible for the content of this advertisement.

So it's good. It was this super pack. I thought it was, you know, it was cool. But the family, I guess, was greatly offended because, you know, some of them, I guess, it's pretty bad when your old family is like, how dare you run for president? Yeah. This is bad. Let's see.

This one is possibly the one causing the most controversy, and it's all coming from the right. Cut three. It is pictures. of Christ washing people's feet. Can you explain? Can you, I can't see them from here, Pat? Yeah, it's just a whole bunch of different images of people washing other people's feet. And they're normally poor, destitute.

There's a different ethnicities. There's a gas worker with a hippie. in somebody's backyard, watching an elderly person. A black man sitting on a porch watching a white man's feet or vice versa. And then the last one. Jesus didn't teach hate. Feet. Okay, so stop.

So the last one is the controversial one. And some people have a problem. In fact, let me read Steve Day. I really like, I just happen to disagree with him, but that is the glory of the blaze. We don't all have to agree and we don't force each other to agree. You will say this. No, yeah, we're against the whole fascistic kind of brainwashing kind of thing. So I was reading a tweet that Steve sent out this morning and he said,

how wrong was the he gets us ad at the Super Bowl? Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, not the multitudes of unrepentant sinners as the ad depicts. Instead, for them, he freely offered himself up as a living sacrifice for their sins, which the ad never points out to them. It affirms, it instead affirms them in their sin. Just a vile, repulsive, heretical, and offensive ad.

I can't get upset at Pfizer, Bud Light, or anybody else, the spirit of the age, uh, uh, secrets from its depraved mind when our answer fund, uh, mind, when this, our answer funded by wealthy Christians, it has been 12 hours and I'm still mad. Um, I, you know, I, I, I kind of disagree. I mean, they didn't, I think they should have put somebody like, uh, the capital police. washing the feet of those on January 6th. If you're going to have Jesus washing the foot of transgender, or you have somebody else a priest,

washing the feet of the transgender, I get it, I get it. But how about making sure that the left is washing the feet of the right as well? You know what I mean? because Jesus came for all of us and the point of this ad, I disagree. I'm not mad at this ad at all. I just, I think it was, it could have been done better by really pointing out our real differences. But Jesus, let me ask you, Pat, which one of your children are you so mad at you'd condemn them to hell?

Oh, none of None. No, no, no, they've done something wrong. Let's say one of them murdered somebody. Right. So you would never want to see them again. Which one? Which one?

You had to be none of them. None of them. Okay, but wait. But one of them is in BLM and has set fire to cities and stuff. So you're going to condemn that one to hell, right? No. No, I'm not. Okay.

See? And we, Pat told me one time, just think of God as a loving father and you will understand him and yourself much better. And I said, don't think I can do that. And he, you know, God is everywhere and in the tree. And I still believe, you know, he is. He is everywhere. But you can understand him and your role as a parent much better if you imagine him to be the perfect loving parent. he loves all of us even the ones who have gone to stray and yes he would wash the feet of everyone

do you think jesus was embracing adultery when he rode in the sand and said where thine accusers no because he wasn't he told her he told her not to sin anymore so that part of the story though is always left out by by you know people trying to condone whatever lifestyle that they think is fine. And that's the problem. So if that's the point you're trying to make about Jesus, that he condones everything we ever do, that's not right.

He still loves us, but he doesn't condone our actions a lot of times. Right. God is our father. We are his children. He loves us. But, you know, the thing we can learn from that is that we cannot hate our fellow man.

We cannot hate, and that's the point of this. We can't hate our enemy. We are not fighting enemies that are flesh and bone. We are fighting, I actually, and if you really pray on this, these are not enemies of ours. We don't own these rights. God does. These are enemies of his.

And we are supposed, we're not. the gatekeepers. We're the welcoming committee and we should be praying for our enemy, loving our enemy, and that's going to get harder and harder to do. But do you know why Abraham Lincoln was killed by John Wilkes Booth? You know, he tried twice. The first time he's just going to kill him with his bare hands. And it was at the point of the inaugural speech, we have in the vault the only picture of Abraham Lincoln and John Wilkes. booth in the same photograph. It's an incredible thing. Abraham Lincoln is given the second inaugural address. And so he's kind of blurry because he's talking and moving and, you know,

the cameras need a long exposure. But up up at the top on the gate of the Capitol, looking right and just his eyes and everything are so clear because he was just boring a hole in Lincoln's head is John Wilkes Booth. And after, Lincoln said with malice toward none and charity for all, Booth about lost his mind because he needed the North to hate the South. He needed the South to hate the North. The only reason why he killed Lincoln was so that the North would rise up again in anger towards the South. that's not Christ-like. We don't, we, we, we should do everything we can to push our anger aside.

That doesn't mean we condone and it doesn't mean we stop fighting them. We just don't hate. And that's gonna, that's hard because hate is very, very worldly. And hates what's being pushed right now. Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's Relief Factor. You know, until, until, until, like, got super into the sport i'd have you know trouble you know telling you anything about uh the football game

you know uh that happened last night the big game can't say it you know the big game but now that i'm a diehard sports fan you know i definitely know all the names of the players for instance uh that one that is dating taylor swift at the i don't know if you saw him he was playing something doing something there at the Usher concert. It was great. Anyway, if you need to sleep, you can either watch the first half of the Super Bowl or you can try relief factor sleep. Maybe you don't, you know, have difficulty sleeping all the time.

One that is committed to asking real questions and telling the truth about our history and the United States of America. Glenn Beck, I'm so happy to have you in the national conversation. I've been your number one fan for a number of years. And I am looking forward to 60 more with you, my friend.

God bless America and God bless you. Happy birthday. I didn't realize Megan was suffering from blindness. I didn't, uh, that's a, uh, I had to call her and tell her afterwards. I'm happily married. Stop. This is stop and drive. Hello, my eyes are up here, Megan.

Right. You know. Okay. So, Pat, what did you think of the game last night? Did you watch it? I thought it was a bore. Up until about, maybe there were five minutes left in the game. That it got pretty, pretty good.

Um, from then on. until, you know, the end of the game after the overtime. I thought it was, it was fun. It was entertaining. That, that Mahomi guy, he is, pretty good. He always comes back at the, I think he performs best when there's a gun to his head. Yeah.

You know what I mean? Yeah. He, I think they played like they were playing at the beginning of the season. And until, about halfway through the third quarter. And then all of a sudden, it was like, where were, where were you guys? I mean, is this a different team? He's very Tom Brady-esque. I mean, I don't know if you paid attention long enough to know that Tom Brady,

the greatest quarterback of all time. If you give him too much time at the end of the game and he's only a score behind, you're going to lose. He's going to bring his team back and win the game. And that's a lot like Pat Mahomes now. He's the same way. I have to tell you, I thought it was boring as snot for most of it. It was.

That was one of the most exciting endings I've ever seen. Yeah, it was a fun ending. But you couple that with the boring ads, and it was kind of a boring broadcast. Yeah, it was. Yeah, I thought so too. I thought so too. I don't know what happened to the days with, you know, the kid trapped in the Pepsi bottle and, you know, the Budweiser commercials that used to be so good. And I don't know.

There wasn't a Budweiser commercial. And I was like, it wasn't bad. I mean, it was okay. It wasn't bad. It wasn't bad. But, you know, those Budweiser commercials used to be about America. Right. You know?

Yes. It was about America. And there's nothing about America. I mean, I have to tell you, I think there is only one person, one company that is the best advertisement for America globally. They never shy away from it. And it is always the best image of America. You know who that is? I don't.

Who? I think it's Ralph Lauren. Ralph Lauren, no matter where you go in the world, has the, you know, has the sweater with a flag on it. He is America and he never shies away from it. It's always the best, you know? It's always the image of that frontier kind of guy or. you know, just, it's just always the best, I think. And I don't think there's anybody that is unabashedly as American as Ralph Lauren.

Now, he, you know the first, he didn't have a commercial yesterday, though, right? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. But you know his first ad that he ever, I mean, he was selling ties out of his trunk for a long time, out of his trunk of his car. And when he first started to become a success, He went out and he was doing this shoot on a farm and he had all of these models come in and all of the clothes. And the guy took a picture just at the very beginning and it was just fog over this white picket fence and the barn. Nothing else.

And Ralph said, wrap it up. We have it. And the guy said, there's not even clothing in it. It was the first two-page ad Ralph Lauren did. They all mocked him and he said, we're selling more than clothes. selling America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

It is IFCJ. Now, if you don't know what IFCJ is, these are the people that are taking care of the suffering and the people that just can't make ends meet. They're suffering because of what's going on in Israel. They're Jews. And they're the international fellowship of Christians and Jews. So it's people of the book that are coming together. IFCJ. It's right there in the middle

of it every day in a good way. They're distributing essentials like food and medicine and emergency supplies for hundreds of thousands of suffering Jews. And I have to tell you, I have talked to many people. I haven't been over there yet myself since the 7th.

age. So I'm going to let your listeners and viewers kind of handicap that for you. I do want to say that you are a stand-up guy, a smart guy, entertaining guy. I've known you now for almost half your life, Beck, and I've seen great changes because of the great influence that I have had on you. Yes. And on this birthday, I want to say that I'm happy to have steered you in the right direction, and I want you to have a blast celebrating your 60th. Yes. Now, Bill is the only person that sent me a nice thing and made it made my birthday about him which is very nice is very nice you know the amazing thing about bill is he knows that's his MO he knows that he is he just plays into it yeah every single time totally comfortable is into it yeah yeah yeah which makes

him a really bad guy and I don't like him so let me just quickly tell you last week I was I was out because my father was very very ill he's my father-in-law but I call him my father and because he is I don't understand people who are constantly making fun of their in-laws now I mean there are some that you're like okay yeah in law I want to emphasize in law There's nothing else tying us together. It's kind of like a prison sentence. I understand that there are some people that would feel that way.

But I never have. I love these guys. And it was the perfect way to go. Early in the week, he was doing really bad last weekend, the weekend before last. So we all flew in. And by Monday, he had started to make some recovery. And he had his sense of humor.

and and he knew. And he was just great and everybody had a chance to see him. And probably in the last 12 hours or so, he just went to sleep. He had his kidneys weren't working anymore. His liver wasn't working anymore. His heart was really bad. All of his organs were shutting down. And he just went to sleep.

Maybe, maybe had a little discomfort for a few. hours. Tanya and I went home along with everybody else and the phone rang at about 4 o'clock. I woke up at 2.30 in the morning and I thought he's passing. He's leaving. And I almost woke my wife and I didn't because I thought, oh, it's just me. He ends up dying at 3 o'clock in the morning. And we get a call. we're there by four and it was one of the most remarkable things ever because we went in and he had passed and so we're sitting with the body which i always thought would be really creepy but it wasn't um and it was so clear that he was gone that his spirit was gone and you could see the empty shell of a worn out body and mom came in and she put her hand on his head and Tanya and I were there for about 90 minutes with her

and she just talked to him about all the good times that they had together and the struggles and how it was all worth it and praised God for all the time that they had and it was one of the most amazing things. This man, Vinnie Colonna, taught me what a family really is, taught me how to be a good dad, taught me so many things, raised an incredible daughter who said no to me when I first asked her to marry me, because we didn't have faith in common. And we had to have faith in God in common, or she said we would never make it. She knew that because she was raised by godly and good parents.

He taught me even last week how to die. It was amazing. He died on my birthday and everybody in the family said, oh my gosh, glad. I'm so sorry he died on a birthday. And I actually find it to be an honor. I really do. We now share a birthday.

His birth into everlasting life, and my birthday, and I am so grateful that actually he died, not the day before, not the day after, but on my birthday. So I will always remember him on my birthday. It will be forever tied to him. He was truly a great man. His funeral service will be on Saturday, wake on Friday, and I will be traveling back up. on, you know, in the middle of this week, so I'll be back in New Haven, Connecticut. I flew out to the ranch yesterday because we have so much going on here that I just couldn't put off anymore. So, and then I'll be back in Dallas next week. Thank you for putting up with me in the last week.

And thanks to everybody on my staff who has just made it so unbelievably. easy to do the things that I felt we as a family needed to do. By the way, even at the end, my father-in-law, I think, was more aware than Joe Biden. We have to go through later on in the program, Pat, we're going to go through that five. You heard the five-minute collection of Biden just being gone? five minutes. It's incredible. It's absolutely incredible.

And I know you talked about this on Friday, but I wasn't here on Friday. The speech he gave, first of all, you're either competent enough to stand trial and be the president, or you're a sweet old man with good intentions that just doesn't have a good memory that can't go to trial because you're really not competent and you go home it's it's one or the other you're either standing trial and your president or you're incompetent and you go home which one is it so the president he knew how bad this was and so thursday he gave a speech i just want to play two highlights from this that prove the point listen to this I think that, as you know,

Yes. Initially, the president of Mexico, Ossi, did not want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian material to get in. I talked to him. I convinced to open the gate. I talked to Bibi to open the gate on the Israeli side. I've been pushing really hard, really hard to get humanitarian assistance into Gaza. Oh, okay. All right. Pat, I didn't know that the Cici, the president of Egypt, was now the president of Mexico.

Yeah, that seems like almost too much power for one man, doesn't it? It does. It really does. But I can understand what the people of Mexico would want him, you know, running Egypt. You know, they've got pyramids. Mexico has pyramids. I'm sure his campaign went was like, you know, some like, hey, I've taken care of these. Wait to you see Mexico what I can do for you. That's a good point. You do have the pyramid time. Yeah. Yeah.

You do. You do. So it makes sense. It does make sense. And people were making fun of him for saying that C.C. In the speech where he's saying, I'm confident, he's saying the president of Mexico is actually the president of Egypt. Okay. Then this.

Not share classified information. I did not share it. With your ghost right. With my ghost right. I did not. Guarantee you did not. But the special counsel said it. No, he did not say that.

Okay. He did not say that. But, Mr. President, what are you? Let me answer your question. The fact of the matter is, what I didn't want repeat it. I didn't want him to know, and I didn't read it to him, was I had written a long memorandum to President Obama why we should not be in Afghanistan. And I was, of this, multiple pages.

And so what I was referring to, I said classified it. I should have said it should be private because it was a contact. between the president and the vice president as to what was going on. That's what it is referring to. It was not classified information in that document. Okay. Yeah, he's totally good. He's totally good there. Totally good. I like when old men get grumpy. I was a little disappointed in my in my dad as he was dying. He didn't he never got grumpy. He had a good sense of humor the whole time. But I like it when old people are like, Let me tell you, John, Judge, Mudge, get me a bucket.

For what? I don't know what, give me a... And you, let me tell you. He's crazy. He's crazy. And should not be the president of the United States. And during that same speech, I think it was where he also mentioned, he just mentioned Francois Mitteron, who died in, you know, 1996. was the president of France

and he just had a conversation with him a couple years ago. But then he also did the helmet coal thing. He confused helmet coal with Angela Merkel of Germany. The man proved it over and over and over. Look, coal was living when Biden was living? What's the difference? Well, for part of the time. Yes.

Yes. They both ran Germany. You're right. You're right. So I guess it wasn't that big a deal. So what is your problem, man? What is your problem? Boy, I have to tell you, the, everybody is working like crazy to either pummel him.

I mean, I'm talking on the left. Either to pummel him and go, he's got to get out. Or this last gasp of, who was it? It was in the White House. He was like, he is competent. He is sharp as marble. he is he is he's cogent he asked me for facts i don't even know and then he's like hey youngster i've got these facts in my holsters i can pull them out at any time it's one or the other and

i think we know which one it is now the question is how does the democrat exit how do how does he exit because he's going to go out screaming on the lawn. How does he exit? And how do they recover from that? More in just a second. First, let me tell you about our commercial sponsor. It's real estate agents.I trust.com. Pat, you ever try to sell your house? Yes. Yes. Yes. Multiple times. Good experiences? Never. No. It's never been a good experience. No. It really hasn't. I do you know anybody who's like, oh man, that was a piece of cake. That was so great. No. No. No, I don't. Unless you have a really good realtor. Maybe then it's a little bit better, but still not great. Yeah. But have you ever become friends with the realtor? No. No. No. And now imagine

if somebody's taking you through the house and they're like, and you go, where's the master bedroom? They're like, oh my God, we don't say master bedroom anymore. Oh, I think it could be a murder house. I think we'd have to list relist it as a murder house. But anyway, but anyway, real estate agents, I trust.com are, they're not those people. They're the people that actually, we hear from clients that say, I have made a new friend because you have something in common, and that is this show. They're all listeners and fans of the show, but they're also really, really good real estate agents. They're the best in the area, at least what we found.

8887-27-B-E-C-K. This is the Glenn Beck. program. I am Mike Lee, longtime fan of Glenn Beck and president of the Glenn Beck fan club in the United States Senate. Happy birthday, Mike. Yeah, thank you, Mike Lee. He's going to be joining us here in a second talk about the new, I think it's, what is it, 90 billion that Chuck Schumer jammed through yesterday along with the help with our turtle. I look like a turtle and I wish I could put my head in my suit. Um, so, We got that going for us.

Coming up next hour, standby. The Providence of Saskatchewan is doing something unique. They were actually trying to copy the United States, the red states of the United States. In case people don't know, they're not familiar with Canada. Saskatchewan is north of America. And New Brunswick is, I hope I didn't get too technical there. A New Brunswick now requires teachers to obtain parental consent. before humoring students cross-sex delusions.

Alberta is now posed to pass wide-sweeping policies in legislations that would not only prohibit children from undergoing sex change mutilations and taking puberty blockers, but it would also keep parents abreast of their, no pun intended, of their kids' efforts to transition at school and bar all men from women's sports. The radicals are very upset, Randall Garrison, he's a member of parliament, he's also anti-Israel, etc, etc.

In the, in Saskatchewan, they were talking about strengthening parental rights and protecting children from unnecessary, irreversible, and disfiguring medical interventions. He said, I'd like to say, first of all, that there is no such things as parental rights in Canada. There are parental responsibilities, but not parental rights. Oh, who's saying a quiet part out loud? You are. Yes, yes, it's cute. It is starting to sweep Canada, the people who are in, you know, more of the, quote, red states of Canada, which is, again, north of America,

is they are starting to take a stand as well against this craziness. absolute craziness. And Beck program. Hello, America. Welcome to Monday. We have Mike Lee going to tell us what the spending package that they passed over the weekend, $90 billion. Where's that money going? A hint, not to you, not to your business, not to America.

We'll tell you about that coming up in just a second. First, let me tell you about American financing. It is time to get serious about some things as you move toward the... this next year. We're fighting a war on a cultural level, on a political level, on a spiritual level, and I think things are going to get more intense as we go along. But believe it or not, your fiscal responsibility is a huge part of your role in all of this. So let me start here. Do you own a home? Because right now there's some great news in the market for homeowners. Interest rates have dropped and are now in the fives, which is a lot lower than they were last year.

Don't doom spend. But if you're somebody that has been in a situation where you've been putting things on a high interest rate credit card just to survive, and now you're buried in that high interest debt, American financing can help you access the cash in your home to pay off that high interest debt. Last year, they helped customers save an average of $854 a month. That's the average customer that came from this show. That's like giving yourself a $10,000 raise. start the new year the right way with American financing. American financing at 8009062440, 8009062440 or American financing. NMLS-182334, NMLS Consumer Access.org.

I first met Glenn Beck in the hallway at Fox News at 12-116th Avenue in 2009. That year he and I started there. We both had worked at CNN. And I'll admit I never watched him on television. But I did hear management complain about him because they thought he was crazy and hard to control. And then one day I'm sitting in my office around 5 o'clock and I flip on Glenn Beck.

And I thought then, as I think now, that he was the single. most naturally talented television performer I had ever seen in my life. He, as I sat there, transfixed and mesmerized, spent an entire hour with no notes or teleprompter sketching out his stream of consciousness thoughts onto a whiteboard, and they were all cogent and coherent. And by the way, I agreed with them. And I thought, whatever it is to be a genius in television or radio, Glenn Beck is. So the fact that he's turning 60 years old, Still has it. Not a single hint of senility makes me all the more admiring. It's debatable. Happy birthday Glenn Beck from your friend. Yeah, thank you. Thank you very much.

That's really nice of Tucker. But not true, but really nice of him to say. Yeah, absolutely completely untrue. But, you know, did I, was he doing, maybe he was being sarcastic because then he got to the senility part. Yes. Yes. There's clearly signs all over the place. So anyway, Mike Lee is joining us now. Hello, Mike. Come on, I want you to know that I've never personally seen you do the Joe Biden shuffle or shakes hands with a non-existent person.

So, you know, that counts for something. Well, I will tell you that he's getting a bad rap for, you know, saying that Cici is the president of Mexico when he was the president of Egypt. But I think I found that out.

I mean, it only makes sense that CC is the president of Egypt and Mexico because they both have pyramids. So, you know, it makes a lot of sense. Yes, yes. So that's it. Yes, yes, yes. Another coaching point. Yes. Wow.

Wow. Thank you very much. So, Mike, what the hell of the Senate done this time? Senate this time has yet again put together a bill that now appears quite likely to pass that, you know, Knights Democrats sharply divides Republicans on an issue where most Republican voters and most Republican senators are adamantly opposed to the Democrats' position. But Senate Republican leadership and a small handful of others have given the Senate Democrats, the Senate Democrats worth in enough votes to where it looks like they're going to be able to pass this thing in the next 48 hours or so. Really is too bad. I mean, we still stop it.

If all the Republicans decided to ban together, we could. still stop it, but the clock's ticking. Yeah, but you have Murkowski and Romney. So you're not going to give. Yeah, but the remaining, the remaining 31 of us who didn't vote for this have strong concerns, big concerns, concerns that are backed up by voters all across America. Not all of them Republicans, by the way, but certainly an overwhelming super majority of

Republicans in the country have great difficulty for this with this. You know, I still have the Senate war all day on Saturday. I spoke for poor continuous hours, trying again and again and again to get amendments pending. Amendments pending in the Senate, meaning they're in the queue to be voted on, to be addressed. Democrats wouldn't let us do it. I put up an amendment, for example, making sure that this, this. aid wouldn't end up going to Hamas. You send this through any of these entities through the UN.

They make a lot of hate about the fact that, oh, well, we cut UN out of any aid. Oh, great. There are 19 UN agencies operating in Gaza. And guess what? You send aid to Gaza? Trying to saying, we're going to send this to Gaza, but not Hamas. That's, it's not real. I don't even know how to announce that.

It's like saying, we're going to give money. money to the UK, but it won't go to the British. It's not a thing. So, okay, so hang on. 90 billion dollars, what's in this package? What are we sending? The $95 billion in the package, about 60 billion of it goes to Ukraine. Within that portion of it, you've got about $8 billion that goes to direct economic assistance. To be, to the, to be, the Ukrainian government. Where the Ukrainian government is expected to spend that on things like paying all of Zelensky's bureaucrats, every government employee in Ukraine, civilians, the whole thing for an entire year. They're also free to use that for their own welfare benefit system.

They're also free to use that for their own sort of Ukrainian chronic capitalism sort of thing, which they've got going on. For example, we've got actual instances of this type of aid that we've given to Ukraine over the last couple of years being used to buy people concert tickets in Ukraine, to shore up the viability of clothing stores in Ukraine. It's a real motherload of opportunities here, opportunities for those who are close to the Ukrainian corruption. Now, look, we could have a real debate here if this were just military aid, but there's so much in this package that is not military aid that's going to other things.

Also in the bill, you've got a total of between $9 and $10 billion. It's going loosely speaking to some type of humanitarian aid. And it just says in these two different accounts that add up to between $9 and $10 billion. dollars. It says that they can go to these loose humanitarian concerns in and around Ukraine and in and around Israel, which means that in theory, the Biden administration could channel most or even all of that aid to Gaza. It's what Gaza does when we give that humanitarian aid. It's not Gaza broadly. This is Hamas. Well, Hamas in the past has used our aid money, whether funneled through the United Nations as it usually is or otherwise.

They build tunnels. They buy arms. They prepare to attack innocent and to Israelis and do whole things. This is giving them more of an opportunity to do that very thing that resulted in October 7th. But make no mistake, Amasa is not content with October 7th. That's just a preview of more things to come. All they need are the resources, and apparently we might be provided. them with those. Mike, it's Pat Gray. Just to be clear, I want to make sure I understand,

you are anti-Ukrainian concerts then, as well as anti-Ukrainian clothing stores. Yeah, I got that too. Good catch. Thank you. He was just going to let that slide and I don't want it to. Mike, I have to tell you, Ukraine can go to concerts, they can buy the clothing. Right. Not on the American taxpayer. Wow. Wow. So I have to. I have to tell you. I have to tell you. I have to I have to tell you, Mike, at every corner, it seems, since 2008, when we're talking about big money, the American people have not had any relief. The big corporations have gotten it. The big banks have gotten it. The Fed has gotten it. Foreign countries have gotten it. The, now the clothing stores in Ukraine have gotten it. But the ma and pa, I had to buy a black suit over the weekend,

and I went into this great, legendary clothing store in New Haven, Connecticut, called Faroochis. And as I'm talking to the guy behind the counter, and he's like, COVID killed us, man. It killed the clothing industry. They're struggling, you know, the people that made really good suits for like Brooks Brothers and stuff for him. He said, they used to have. 2,000 employees. He said they got down to, I think it was 150 employees, and now they're back up to 500. And everything has changed. And not a dime has been helping out these companies. They destroyed us. And we were buying, you know, people were getting stuff and they were buying concert tickets here in America. While the real people trying to keep the doors from falling

off, no pun intended with Boeing because they're apparently working to keep the doors flying off. The people who are really doing the hard work, they never get a break from this government, ever. Never get a break from it,

and it never sleeps, it never stops spending. And, you know, the more we spend, you know, multi-trillion dollar deficit, it's year after year after year. It starts to add up and it starts to make every dollar that we have, that Americans earn through their hard work.

Buy less, you know, the average American household, every single month has to show up an additional thousand dollars just to live, just to put roof over your head and groceries. So what is this really, what is this really all about, this spending? What is this really all about? Who's really getting the money here? What favors are being done? What NGOs are taking that money and then fundling it back to an election here?

What's happening? I think a single beneficiary from these probably defense contractors, people who make arms. There are plenty of people who are patriotic and who are not part of what I would call the military industrial complex. And by that, I mean those who worship at the altar of war. so that they can make more money, profiteering off of war. But there are a number of those, and it's a real thing. It's been warned of since President Eisenhower. The bigger it gets, the more powerful it becomes.

And I'd say the military industrial complex is the single biggest beneficiary from a package like this. Sometimes some of my colleagues, we can let the masks slip. Some of my Republican colleagues have done that in recent weeks. by saying things like, look, we've got to get this thing done and we should get this done because this will create American jobs. It's good for us to support this world and spring because it'll create. Oh, my gosh. Because, Glenn, when we put these, you know, many tens of billions of dollars into these

weapons procurement contracts for weapons, by the way, that are going to go to others and not us and that are actually going to commandeer our procurement process in such a way that we'll have access to weapons for our own uses later rather than sooner, that employs people in America. That employs people who make a lot of these weapons systems that we're going to be sending over there. But these are things that are, you know, we have a finite stash of them. We've already exhausted a lot of them. It's already going to take us, even before we have this package,

to it years possibly until 2030 or 2035 to replace a lot of this stuff. What happens? Oh, good. You think more and more of this stuff while unable to produce more here at home. It really is concerning. We've become less and less capable of protecting the American homeland from whatever attack we might face here. This is deeply concerning. Okay. So Mike, Mike Lee, in the Senate, fighting hard along with what they're about 13 of you are they not well how many are fighting no no there's 31 31 who are opposing them yeah and think about what that means for a minute that means this is an

overwhelming supermajority of republicans in the united states senate who are against it and yet our senate republican leadership is all for it they're teaming up with democrats most democratic policies to unite democrats okay issues that are particular to the less This is concerning. So last week, gang, you stopped the bill in the Senate on the border. You got to do it again. You make a difference. You do make a difference.

Call your senator and say, in no uncertain terms, you're not to keep giving my children and my great-great-grandchildren's money away. We don't have the money. we don't have that enough is enough my gosh Mike thanks for the good fight I appreciate it God bless thank you very much good to be with you so they say a dog is a man's best friend and that's a relationship that you know you have to take seriously if you're a pet owner like I am you not only want your dog to be healthy and happy but you also are responsible for those things if you give your dog kibble food it's all dead food they kick out all the good stuff they

Glenn, Dennis Prager here, and I got up to wish you a happy birthday from L.A. And my wife said, you know, you're smoking a cigar.

And Glenn is LDS, as you folks prefer to be called these days, which is fine with me. And then I thought, all right, so when you send me a birthday wish, you can have a ham and cheese sandwich while you do it. Anyway, can I tell you? I'm going to do that. I am going to do that. In fact, I'm going to send him a video today of me eating a ham and cheese sandwich

just to thank him for the birthday greeting. I was really overwhelmed by all of the people that came out and wish me happy birthday. I got these on Saturday. And it was, it's very nice of all of them to do. All right. Let's see. We've got coming up in just a second, we want to talk to you about what's happening with our farms and our ranches.

There is a global food agenda that is going on. And I read some stories about how the EU has caved. They've caved to the farmers. Oh, God, I wish I was. on in Europe. I wish people would listen to us in Europe. They didn't cave. They didn't. You're not winning yet. They're only delaying it until after the election. Okay. We're going to study this again after the election. Oh, I bet you are. The global elite are terrified of what could happen in this election. So you're going to see all kinds of things being promised and said

you're going to see, I'll bet you, interest rates go down. They'll do everything they can to make it look like, you know what? I think the people have a good point. And after the election, we'll talk about that some more. But right now we're going to stop it. And what else is interesting? What else is interesting here is that it's not just Europe. We've got our own farming problems in this country.

We've got a real cattle shortage going on right now that has been brought on by the government. I mean, in part by some drought, they say. but mostly because prices of feed have gone up so much that they can't feed the cattle so they're cutting back on production of cattle. And that's why you're seeing the prices of beef go up through the roof. I mean, it's paid $50 for a steak is unreal right now. Unreal. And, you know, the bigger problem is that there are four big food processing companies in the country, Two of them are owned by people out of country.

They're not even American food processing company. The two American, at least one of them, is all on the fake meat front. But all four of them, I believe, collude to keep the price of beef down for them. They buy it. You can't sell your meat to anybody, but these big four processing plants. And so, okay. And so you have to take what they're offering. It is so important that we build processing plants in local communities.

You've got to strengthen your local farms and your local ranchers. We've got to find a way around this. Congress, one Congresswoman is working hard on this. She's actually the woman that replaced Liz Cheney in Wyoming. We're going to talk to her. when we come back. I have to tell you, I'm so pleased to do business with good ranchers because of what we just talked about.

this is one of them they put together this whole thing of you know my life and everything that's happened in the 60 years of life and then I'm really this one of my favorite songs And then at the end, I realized John Adracek is doing, is performing it for me and changing some of the lyrics. That's an amazing, just amazing. I can't thank John and my staff. I have truly the best staff, I think, in all of radio. All right, let me go to Wyoming here. We had a podcast a couple of weeks ago.

on how bad our farmers and our ranchers are being screwed by the federal government and how dangerous this is becoming. We're no longer the breadbasket for the rest of the world. Most people don't know that. And Harriet Higman is with us now. She's from Wyoming. Harriet, did I pronounce your last name right? I'm sorry. Yes, you did good, Higman.

Okay, good, good, good. So you are the person that beat Liz Cheney, and I thank you for that. for her seat in Congress. So tell me what is what people don't know about what's really going on with our farmers and our ranchers. How bad is this getting? Well, I appreciate the opportunity and I did watch that podcast and listen to that a couple of weeks ago. And I was stunned about the amount of information that you were able to get out into the public sphere with the gentleman that you were interviewing. I am a water and natural resource attorney before I was elected to Congress.

And so I have worked for a lot of ranchers and farmers and irrigation districts and municipalities and things from Wyoming, Nebraska, and other states. And really what we're seeing is a federal government who is attempting to limit our food supply, and they're doing it through a variety of ways. One of them that I would describe would be the USDA's just absolute obsession with imposing an RFID or EID mandate against our cattle producers, that they would put EID ear tags for all of our cattle and bison producers. And the point is to vertically integrate the industry.

Right now, the poultry and the pork industry have already been vertically integrated, where if you look through the entire supply chain, it is the packers themselves that own the entire supply chain. We only have four big packers in the United States, one owned by China, two by Brazil, and one American company. And that's what they're trying to do with the cattle industry as well. So it's to vertically integrate it so that they can control it. So I'll just give you an example of what I mean by this.

These people are obsessed with global warming, as you know. And in 2022, Ireland adopted an EID mandate. In the spring of 2022, Ireland adopted an EIB mandate. They always say it's about traceability. It's about disease control. And if there were a disease outbreak, we would be able to trace. We already did that. We do it right now.

We have bands, back take, brands, backtakes. We're already able to do that. But in Ireland, they said the same thing. This is about safety. And the United States has the safest food supply in the world. And they adopted an EID mandate in the spring of 2022. By the summer of 2023, they were mandating the slaughter of 41,000 head of cattle. Not because of a disease outbreak, but because of global warming.

So what they want to do is they want to, they want. to limit the amount of protein that we're allowed to have. Well, they want to limit the kind of protein that we can have. And that's what this is about. It's about our government using food to control us. It's government-imposed wretchedness. You know, when you say this, and you're preaching to the choir, because I've been, you know, when I first saw the World Economic Forum's plans,

I thought, this is so crazy. There's no way this is true. No, no, no. It's all true. And Europe is ahead of us. And it is so diabolical and evil that there's, when you say you want to change the industry from seed to fork, that sounds to me like millions will die. Just for even if your intentions are good and everything else, just the hundreds of thousands of mistakes that you could make that will snowball. into starvation. But I think some of these people are so anti-human that they are.

You know, they, yeah, it's craziness. It is craziness. And it is, again, it comes back to control and the government control because you always have to ask, what is the problem they're trying to fix? Have we had major disease outbreaks that have killed thousands of people? No, not on the cattle side of things. And the reality is, to the extent there is an issue. It's always on the meat side. It's the packing side. It's not the livestock side where we have challenges or problems.

So it is about vertical integration because if USDA does not know where the cattle are or how many head a particular rancher owns, they can't impose a restriction of saying you're going to have to call 10% of your herd. Or you're only allowed to have 500, not 750. The other thing they're trying to do is that they have all of these radical environmental ideas. our ranchers and farmers are some of the most, for the very best stewards of the land in the United States and in fact in the world. Of course. You have the EPA. You have the USDA.

You have all of these various agencies who think that they know better. And so what you're going to see is as soon as they impose an EID mandate, they're going to come in with what they call BQA, beef quality assurances. And it's a 59 point checklist where the USDA can come onto your property unannounced and start dictating to you, how you're going to operate your ranch and manage your livestock. Oh, dear God. How do we stop this? How do we stop this? So we've been fighting it.

I fought in a lawsuit for the last several years. We've been able to put them back. It was supposed to go into effect on January 1, 2023, because of our lawsuit and my efforts in Congress, we've been able to put them back. And we have one more thing up our sleeve that we're going to keep trying to push back against the USDA on this. But then you're well aware of the NACs, the natural asset company. where they're trying to come in and then monetize and securitize all of our quote,

so-called natural assets. It's the most bizarre thing I've ever heard. This is coming through the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange with the idea that someone like Bill Gates could spend a billion dollars and own all the natural assets for Yellowstone National Park. Well, we don't own air. We don't own wind. We don't own pollination.

We don't own those things. Yet our government is attempting to monetize. those and securitize those so that number one that they can put them on their balance sheet so they can continue to borrow money and number two so they can again control what we can produce if they impose and if they put a knack if they put a natural asset company and they sell the natural assets for a particular partial of federal land there can be no mining no grazing no logging there can be no activities whatsoever and again it is an effort to to limit and restrict our ability to access the natural resources that we have in this country.

So we're talking to Congresswoman Harriet Higman. She is the Republican from Wyoming that is wide awake on what is what's really going on here. And don't laugh this off when you say they're trying to buy the air. Well, we don't own the air. Remember, that is exactly what the Native Americans said when the white man came to buy the land. It was almost a joke many times to them because the Great Spirit owns the land. We don't own the land, but they sold it to us. And it's not funny now, is it?

And it won't be funny. You do not laugh this off with what they're trying to do on Wall Street with the air. It is really, really dangerous. There's one thing, because I'm a rancher up in Idaho, and all of this stuff just makes me think, my kids aren't going to have a chance at any of this. They are also talking, and I know you're fighting this kind of stuff in Wyoming. In the Pacific Northwest, the United States government is actually talking about destroying four major hydroelectric plants and reservoirs.

So the salmon can survive. That wipes out farmland. It's insanity. It is insanity because it's not only going to destroy the farmland up there, it is going to destroy the communities and the economies of all of the surrounding communities. And they don't even know, don't have any metrics to demonstrate that this is going to do what they claim it's going to do. They are attempting to take out those dams. That hydropower, because of this obsession with wind and solar and the so-called renewables,

I call them the unreliables, but because of their obsession with unreliable power and energy, they have to have, we have to have the backups. We have to have a full redundancy. And hydropower is clean and it is reliable. With those dams, those hydropower plants on those dams, that is the backup for massive numbers of people throughout the upper Midwest and California for their electricity when the unreliables are not producing any electricity.

When they take those dams out, there is no backup. There is enough. If the wind doesn't blow and the sun doesn't shine, they won't have electricity because there isn't a backup. The environmental devastation that they are going to create by taking out those dams is mind blowing, and they are trying to go forward with it. Thank you for standing. Please keep me on speed dial. You need people to stand up. You have something else to expose.

Please, people are just now waking up on how bad and how dangerous this administration and the global government is becoming to our food supply. It will cause starvation for a very long time if it goes through. They are targeting. Yes. And in the natural asset companies, I really encourage your listeners to find out about that and push back against it and make sure that we are. We won this round. The New York Stock Exchange had to withdraw that rule of the SEC has stopped it for now. We won that round. They'll come back with something else. They'll just name it something else. This is the way they do it.

Thank you so much. Congressman Higman from Wyoming, God bless.

The Glenn Beck Program will be right back.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. I'm sharing the space today. Filling in for my executive producer is my longtime best friend, Pat Ray, who joins me now from Pack Ray Unleashed. He is also the man that is responsible for the possibility of foreigner getting into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It comes after many, many years of very hard work. Trying to make that happen. This is something you have been on for a very long time.

For a long time. Yeah. And finally, they got their first, this is the first time they've ever even been nominated. It's not amazing? It's incredible to think of it. That's crazy. But can they beat out Mary J. Blige? Well, she's such a rock and roll legend.

Yes, right. As is Cher, as you know. And cool in the game. Yes. I mean, hard rocking. Remember Shadde's? What was that song? It was so awful.

Something so bad. Yeah. Shnade O'Connor. Big time rocker. Okay. Yeah. Okay. So, you know, they keep using this rock and roll Hall of Fame.

And I don't think those words mean what they think it means. But maybe it's just me. By the way, we were just talking about what the government is doing. And, you know, we got to do a show on how 21st century fascism, you know, and dictatorships exist. Right now, you could make the case that, you know, we're under a dictator. but not the way people think. Joe Biden, I don't even think, is in control of, I mean, maybe not even his bowels, but he is, he's a guy who is just allowing the administrative state to take care of everything. And that was Woodrow Wilson's dream, that there would be one guy who was the head of the administrative state, and he would empower all of these agencies. and then they would go, first they would get rid of the Constitution

and all that pesky stuff and it would just be administrators. And they would administrate absolutely everything and then they'd go state to state to administrate for those individual states because it should be just one country. This is a dictatorship. It is a technocracy.

It is just faceless people running your life. And when we were saying just a little while ago about, you know, well, they're just going to change the name and repackage it, well, lo and behold, there's a story from Fox today. It's on my morning newsletter about how the Department of Energy is still going after your gas stove. Even though they said they weren't, they're doing it in a hundred different ways. and this story outlines all the different ways that the administrative state can just put regulations on and just kill the gas stove industry. The Glenn Beck program.

Well, Biden, yesterday during the Super Bowl, picked a perfect time to address the American people. I mean, not, you know, like traditionally when the president speaks in an interview before the Super Bowl. No, no, no, no. He was too busy. He couldn't do that. but he did send out a video blaming companies for shrinkflation ahead of the Super Bowl.

And we're going to start with some of that logic in 60 seconds. Stand by. Our sponsor, this half hour, we are so pleased to have Patreon Mobile as our sponsor. If you're tired of being told what's wrong with America, if you're tired of corporations going woke right and left, if you being the one who ends up having to pay for it, if you're tired of that, you're tired of everything seemingly stacked against you, well, stop sending your money to those corporations that are helping do that and are in bed with the federal government on these NGOs.

Maybe it's time to make the switch to Patriot Mobile for your cell phone. Their mission is to passionately defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedom and to glorify God. That's why they've built a great company. And a lot of the profits then are taken and they are reinvested in our own communities. So we can help fight with some of their money. Some of the things that are going on to fight against life and liberty and the Second Amendment and the Constitution, they are in our school districts helping.

You're also going to save money. You're going to get the exact same cell service because they're on the same cell phone companies, and you're going to feel good about it. It's the lowest hurdle that you have to really jump over to help save the country. Join patriotmobile.com slash Beck. I'm part of it. Will you be part of it, too? 972 Patriot, 972 Patriot or PatriotMobil.com slash Beck.

So we've got some good stuff going on, you know, with the, with the president. We're going to get to the president here in just a minute because, I mean, it's, you know, he has to announce, you know, shrinkflation, which is there anyone within the sound of my voice that believes that it's the evil grocery store or the evil company that is just screwing you? Or do you think maybe things have gotten more expensive because of inflation? Which do you think it is? I think it's big ice cream. Big ice cream. shrinking the size of their containers. I think that's what it is.

Amen to that. I hope they have a good attorney. Yeah. So what's the next thing that a president or a dictatorship does when they start to blame companies for shrinkflation or inflation or high cost? What is the next step that they always take? Well, you've got to do price controls. If not just price controls.

Take over the damage. company if they won't do that. Well, they give them a chance. They give them a chance. Yeah, we tried. We tried. And they fought against our price controls. And, you know, and then the whole thing fell apart. And now they say they can't make any money. Well, damn it, we know they can. And that's why we're going to take over the company. Or we're just going to make sure that the company stays, you know, because it's vital. So we're going to subsidize it and make sure that it stays doing what it does, except without all the evil stuff, except more evil. It's going to be really great, except that it's horrible.

So you got that going for you. Now, Biden's reelection campaign announced yesterday the arrival of a new video, captioned, L-O-A, L-O-L-L, hey guys. And it's from the Joe Biden campaign, now on TikTok. and I thought to myself, wow, now they're going to turn this around. Now they're going to turn this around. In fact, may I just quote Aaron Parnas? He is a Gen Z political content creator.

He said, and I'm quoting, young people around the country have been waiting for this moment. Oh, you kidding me? Absolutely. Really? Yeah. Is this the guy who flexes his muscles and does? all the pro-Biden stuff for money from the Biden administration? Is that the same case?

I don't. I think it is. Doesn't everybody do things for Biden for money? Yes. I mean? Yes. But these two in particular, there's two like Gen Zers who purport to be huge Biden fans. They love everything he does.

He can't do anything wrong. And one of them flexes his muscles in the background. Like, okay. I guess you guys are. I'm happy to say I'm not on TikTok. so I don't know. Yeah, you need to be on TikTok. Are you a federal employee?

Because federal employees are actually banned from being on TikTok, but not the federal employee who's the president, I guess. Right. Well, he's got a public-private partnership, you know. Oh, right. Right. He's not doing it. He's not doing it.

But the Gen Z guy said, the president is meeting us where we are and we're going to help him win, you know, with all of the things that he's going to be doing on TikTok, which is great stuff, great stuff, really. So, yeah, you were banned as a federal employee from using it. I'm not, I'm not sure why the president of the United, well, you know what? He's a nice man, good intentioned. He just is very forgetful. And he probably forgot about that. He forgot about that. So, question. an answer. Oh, that made me so, so mad last week when I heard that. So mad when I heard that they weren't prosecuting him because, well, he just, you know, he's a daughtering old fool. And he is, don't get me

wrong. In fact, can we play that, the clip, the highlights of Joe Biden where he just can't recall anything? Listen. This is last Thursday. Anyway. Anyway. Yeah. I don't want to. I don't want to choose my words. I was just thinking. Anyway. I just, look. Anyway.

Anyway. Hello. Putin's kleptocracy. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Feptocracy. January. After every day. I like that. The late January, early February. No. Next clip. Uh-huh.

Hello. He said, it's not, we need, not just, well, I won't go to it. Here's what drives the driver in the states that are affected. Here's what that you can do, the drivers. Yeah, drivers. Okay. What? Yeah.

Then drivers, you know, the drivers. For two reasons. Mm-hmm. One. One. Two. One. It's an impact.

One. An impact. The decades. The Nike. because in action it was inaction with with the department of with from from uh from uh sure me from charlotte one another line going from in florida down to Tampa the best way to get something done if you holds near and dear to you that you uh like to be able to anyway right

idea that um the idea that and and and jone shingang shingang jons shanga kha kope but uh there's you know there to be wow you know beginning uh this effort and uh right and uh i want you to know that uh i want to thank you as well for uh okay with the nature uh the nature yes Okay, stop, stop. I can't take it anymore. There's five minutes of him and these are not old clips. These are new clips. These are not him getting things wrong because he's a gaff machine. This is Biden completely lost as a human being. It is elder abuse in the first place and the 25th Amendment should be invoked. Now, the key to that is the vice president. If the vice president of, vice president, I believe is the only one that can invoke it. And you have to have, I think, at least two cabinet members to support it.

But why wouldn't the vice president do that other than she's incompetent? Yeah. The interesting part about a lot of these, too, a lot of the just blank stares and him getting completely lost is he was doing it with

a teleprompter. He couldn't even get through it with the copy in front of him. It's pretty amazing. It's frightening. And I, you know, obviously she doesn't want to be president. Nobody wants her to be president. Because she could be invoking the 25th Amendment right now.

And everybody would understand it. Did you see the poll that there's 86% of Americans? 86% of Americans think he's too old to run again. So why? Yeah, but only like 91% of independence. Just 91. Oh, wow. Okay.

Yeah, just 91. Yeah. Because it is 73% of Democrats. Seventy-three percent of Democrats. It's amazing. It's clear. You know, it used to be just a few of us saying, okay, look, I mean, this is getting ridiculous. But now every time he's, you know, play him from a year ago.

And he sounds like the Hulk compared to this. Yeah. Now he's like the husk. He's just, I, really, whatever. Who says that?

Whatever. There's a new study out. Remember, he was going to repair everything. You know, our foreign leaders, they didn't trust America anymore. And they just,

they didn't like it. Mm-hmm. They didn't like Trump. And they were going to make sure, that we reintroduce ourselves and we regain our position and our honor. No, no, not happening. Not happening. Apparently the world leaders and the NATO allies are no longer seeing us as a stable and reliable friend and ally. Of course not. Of course not. And everybody is talking. about what Trump said about NATO. Did you hear that this weekend, Pat?

I think I did. I am not remembering exactly what he said now. Oh my gosh. See, you're just like the president. It's happening right now. Yeah, and you're a good nature and a good-hearted guy. You're a good fellow that just wants to do right. But anyway. So Trump apparently, well not apparently he did he said you know if russia were going to attack the nato allies at this point i kind of like go do it go do it we're going to defend them no because you're not paying your fair share pay your fair share and then we we can actually be an alliance he said but you're relying on us i mean why is that so wrong to say Well, it shouldn't be.

I guess we're supposed to defend people no matter what. Everybody on this planet deserves our protection, I guess, whether we've got interest. Except, yeah, except we'll protect them, rebuild them, and then they can badmouth us. Yeah. Oh. So I'm kind of. Done with it? Kind of tired of that one.

Me too. Yeah. Yeah. Did you hear about Marine Le Pen this weekend? So she apparently is running. for the French presidency. I think it's next year. Again? Maybe the year after. But yeah,

oh yeah. And for the first time everybody, the surveys of the polls and everything else are saying she'll win. Wow. Yeah. And I'm not sure if that's good or not. It seems

bad with her communist leadings. It seems bad. But I mean, Macron hasn't been good. So I don't know who should be president to France. Wait, Le Pen is communist? I don't think she's communist. Maybe fascist?

Yeah, I mean, she's always called a right-wing populist. To me, in Europe, right-wing populist usually means, yeah, fascist. It's probably a better description than communist. Right. She's a collectivist. Yes. But, you know, she's a, and the reason why they call her racist is because, because she believes that France is worth saving.

And if you just keep letting people in, you're not going to have any France left. I mean, I would love to go back and travel the world back in the 1950s. Wouldn't that have been amazing? You know, I would have hated it because, you know, it took you forever to get anywhere. But imagine going when things were untainted

by other influences. You went to China. It really was China. It wasn't just like us. You went to, you know, Italy. Even I went to Italy when I was young when I was probably 20, 25 years old. And I went there for work. And it was completely different than it is now.

Now it's just the gap and Ann Taylor and everything else. It's like going to Disneyland now. So I don't think there's a problem. And everybody on the globalist side say that, Oh, you know, you can't have these people that believe in their country in nationalism. No, not that I hate and want to make everybody the United States. That's part of our problem. I just, I think what we have here is worth preserving.

I think what Germany has is worth preserving. What China has is worth preserving. Japan, Italy, France, Ireland, Scotland, all worth preserving. What's so racist about that? back in a minute. Sponsor this half hour is pre-born. A baby's heart begins to beat at three weeks. Did you know that?

At five weeks, it could be heard on an ultrasound. The eyes are forming a week after that. And by 10 weeks, that baby is capable of sucking his or her thumb. Now, when does it become a human being? I don't know. Maybe at birth, maybe, you know, I don't know. Six weeks when the heart stopped. I don't want to take a chance myself.

Preborn is leading the way in the effort to rescue babies from abortion, but they can't do it without people in the pro-life movement like you and me. We are the gas that keeps the engine running. I think the best way to save babies is to save the baby and the mom. Not to shout down, not to talk about bloody killers or anything like that, but to love the mom and the child and try to save both of them. When a mom sees their precious little baby on ultrasound, the baby's chance at life doubles. Then the other problem is moms feel alone like they don't have anybody to help, anybody to support.

You know, and that's the other thing that I don't think people understand. And, you know, there's, it's not only, it's not only that we're destroying our own cultures with these open borders. And it's not just America.

Do not believe that it's just America. It's not America that is going through this. It's the entire West. Everyone is experienced this. And it's because of the open border policies preached by the WEF. it's not just the want to preserve culture it's also you know i i would like to keep crime down some of the shocking crime that we're seeing now is 100% avoidable 100% avoidable there was a gang rape in uh italy uh and it's you know it's not good a group of seven men and teenage boys between

the ages of 15 and 18 are on trial for the rape of a 19-year-old girl, small town in Italy. Weeks later, nine young men were arrested and charged with allegedly raping two cousins aged 10 and 12. They broadcast the attack live on social media, so it wasn't real hard to find them. The girl had been raped so many times in... very short period of time she got pregnant and the DNA it was clear who the father was with the DNA from the child but she had so many different men inside of her that they had no idea when she arrived at the hospital the rape was they could just see that it was multiple

people. Is that necessary? I mean, rape happens in all cultures, but why does it have to happen here? Because our law enforcement isn't doing their job. Our government isn't doing our job, and they're allowing people in that don't have our same values or just bad people. No, thank you. We have our own bad people. Thank you. I think we're full up of bad people. We're trying to work it out so there's fewer bad people in our own pool of people here in America. Okay, let me tell you about life luck. It's really, really easy. I hate it when you go online.

You know, you're looking for love. And, you know, you're just there. And you're a picture. And everybody's like, no, swipe, no, swipe, no. And you're like, hey, how is this going to happen? How am I ever going to find love, especially? then you get excited because you realize, you know, you're like, hey, they're interested, but it's just a scammer stealing your identity.

Yeah, that's really what it's becoming, like romance scams, especially this week as we celebrate whatever that Valentine thing is. It'll cost billions of dollars over the year, not Valentine's Day, although that does the same thing. But the people who are being scammed who are out looking for partners, it's amazing. what these scammers will do to get your identity. Please protect your identity.

So I told you last week that I wanted to watch. the Tucker Carlson interview with Putin and I would watch it with eyes of how would I deal with Vladimir Putin if I were there in Tucker's shoes and I warned that people are looking for an American dictator on the right there on the left

they're already doing it through the administrative state and the the right is starting to toy with this idea of Christian nationalism and just forget the Constitution. No, no, no, at least I won't. I talked to you about Dugan and how Dugan would be pushing Putin to talk about our immorality, transgenderism, loss of faith, and I said, you can maybe let him get away with it one time, but then you have to cut it off and say, this isn't about a merit. and her people. You want to talk about the American war machine, the president or Congress or something, go ahead and we'll listen. But I was expecting Putin to spin the angle, you know, on drugs and how unsafe our country is and everything else.

But he didn't. I think part of that is because Tucker Carlson did a really good job. you know, outside of the containing him for, what, 45 minutes talking about the history of Europe, which, whoof. But he did not allow him to go in and talk outside of the war. And I think that that was fair game. I mean, it's exactly what Hitler would have done. Mussolini would have done. And Stalin would have done and did to our press over here.

It's important to see the other side. To me, he didn't say anything new. Maybe to some people. But what Putin was talking about was the fact that we created this Ukrainian problem. And we did. And I outlined it on my giant chalkboard about Ukraine during President Trump's impeachment hearings. We showed you all of the stuff that Putin was talking about. It's true.

Those things are true. I don't like it, but we have to recognize it as true so we don't get wrapped up in another war. And we at least know the truth of why we're probably in this war. Now, that doesn't make Putin correct on the war, right? I'm not a supporter of Putin or anything else. But let me tell you now how it's being spun in Russia by Alexander. Dugan and he wrote this on on X so now everyone in the world can read what I've been telling you about Dugan listen to this because at first it sounds oh okay and it gets worse and

worse and worse Tucker Putin and the apocalypse why Tucker Carlson's interview is considered pivotal for both the West and Russia if I were Tucker Carlson I would write an op-ed about this op-ed immediately. Let's start with a simpler part, he says, Russia. Here, Tucker Carlson has become a focal point of two polar opposites within the Russian society, ideological patriots and elite westernizers. He believes elite westernizers are the intellectual elite that's just say, let's just become part of the West. And the ideological Patriots are saying, no, we're Russian, and we have God on our side, et cetera, et cetera. For patriots, Tucker Carlson is simply one of us. He's a traditionalist. I've warned you about that

word, traditionalism. It means something different when people like Dugan are saying it. He's a right-wing conservative, a staunch opponent to liberalism. Well, he is, but not in the way Dugin means. Dugin is for the end of all modernity. Understand what that means. The end of all modernity. He believes the world should be pushed back to the way the world was before the enlightenment. I don't think Tucker's for that. The attention the Kremlin pays him ignites the page, Patriots heart, inspiring a continuation of a conservative traditional course in Russia herself. Russian power has defined its ideology. We have embarked on this path, and we will not deviate from it. Yet, patriots are always afraid we will. No. On the other hand, the Westernizers side with relief,

seeing not everyone in the West is bad, and there are good and objective people. Let us be friends with such a West. I think the Westernizers, even if the rest, even if the of the globalist liberal West doesn't want to be friends, but only bombards us with sanctions and missiles and cluster bombs, killing our women and children and elderly. We are at war with the liberal West, so let there at least be friendship with the conservative West. Warning, Russian patriots and Russian westernizers, increasingly more Russian and less Western, have come to the consensus in the figure of Tucker Carlson. In the West, everything is even more fundamental.

Tucker Carlson is a symbolic figure. He is now the main symbol of America and what America hates in Biden, liberals and globalists, and are preparing to vote for Trump. Trump, Carlson, Musk, and even Texas Governor Abbott are the faces of the looming American revolution, this time a conservative revolution. To this already powerful resource, Russia connects,

No, it's not about Putin supporting Trump, which could easily be dismissed, blah, blah, blah, but Carlson's visit was something else. Biden and his maniacs have effectively attacked a great nuclear power through the hands of Kiev's unleashed terrorist. The humanity is on the verge of destruction, nothing more and nothing less. The globalist media continued to spin a Marvel series for infants where Spider-Man Zelensky magically wins with superpowers and magical pigs against the Kremlin's Dr. Evil.

However, this is just a cheap, silly series. In reality, everything is heading toward the use of nuclear weapons and the possible destruction of humanity. This is where Dugan is always dismissed, and I urge you dismiss him at your own peril. Dismiss him just like you've dismissed the leadership of Iran, at your own peril. Tucker Carlson conducts a reality check.

Does the West understand what it's doing, pushing the world toward the apocalypse? There is a real Putin and a real Russia. These are not staged characters and settings from Marvel. Look what the globalists have done and how close we are to it. It's not about the content of the interview with Putin. It's the fact that a person like Tucker Carlson is visiting a country like Russia to meet a political figure like Putin. at such a critical time. Tucker Carlson's trip to Moscow might be the last chance to stop the

disappearance of humanity itself. The world can only be saved by stopping right now. For that, America must choose Trump and Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk and Greg Abbott. Then we have a chance to pause on the brink of the abyss. Compared to this, everything else is secondary. Liberalism and its agenda have led humanity to a dead end. Now the choice is this, either liberals or humanity. Tucker Carlson chooses humanity, which is why he came to Moscow to meet with Putin. The whole world understands why he came and how important it is, Alexander Dugan. Boy, I would not run him right in something like that about me. And I don't think that Tucker Carlson necessarily did anything to deserve that. I'm not aware of how aware Tucker Carlson is of Alexander Dugan.

I've never talked to him about it. I would like to, actually. I've invited him on the program. But remember, when he says we're fighting liberalism, in reality, I am a classical liberal. That means that I am for the Bill of Rights. I want a small government. I believe that I should answer for my own actions and you should answer for your own actions. The Bill of Rights is supreme. That's classic liberalism. So when he says the West's liberalism, that's what he actually means. Not what we say liberalism is.

We say liberal, oh, the liberals are out of control, the leftists. No, he's against freedom of choice. He is for, he says the only, the, the, the only thing wrong with Hitler is he didn't go far enough. He is a doomsday prophet that believes that doomsday must come to wash the world in blood. See if this sounds familiar. He's also the guy who has opened the door and the key relationship between the Iranian 12ers and Russia, the leaderships of Iran. and brought that Gog and Magog together.

It's Dugan. They have one thing in common. Chaos leads to the rebirth of the world. One thinks the Imam coming is coming. One, the supporters of Dugan believe that means Christ will come. And Dugan just believes that that's the way that Russia controls the entire world in the end. Very dangerous. Very, very dangerous. Back in just a minute with more.

Yeah, what's your last name, Bob Davis. Bob Davis. Bob David. Yeah, you fired me for bringing you the wrong kind of Sharpie that day in 1991. You remember that? Listen, losing my... Losing my job back then, gave me a real chance to experience life on the street. I was able to learn how to stay alive on the streets of Baltimore, Maryland,

with nothing but an old shopping cart and a burlap sack from Stop and Shop. So then you're taking good out of this. Yeah, I'm grateful. Yeah. I actually became so accustomed to the freezing cold temperatures at now I'm immune to any temperature below 23 degrees Fahrenheit. So there's that. Appreciate it. Right.

Listen, and since I have graduated from living in that shopping cart to the burned out remains of the DeLorean you left behind when you and Pat left town. So thanks for leaving town. I appreciate that again. Yeah. But yeah, happy birthday. Happy 60th. Yeah. Yeah, thank you.

Have one more. One more. Not many more. Just one. Just one. Okay. All right. All right.

Thank you, Bob. Happy birthday. Appreciate that. And I want to thank my best friend, Pat, for bringing that up as well. I just took the call. One of the lowest points of my life. I just took the call. That's all they did.

That's all you did. Nothing else to do it. Nothing to do it. Sure. Yeah. But you know what? You've come a long way since then. Since the Bob incident. You've come a long way.

You know, that is really true. I mean, it is true. I hate to say this, but you brought it up. That's how bad of a human being I was. I actually, and I remember, Pat and I went and we had to go to this thing. And all we had to do was sign autographs. I mean, it's the easiest game. in the world yeah but I'm like 20 something and arrogant and I believe my own you know

garbage and this this kid he brings us non-sharpie he just brings a you know a pen regular pen and yeah yeah and I look at him I said I only signed with Sharpies and I told you this last week you're fired and he was like ha ha ha and I'm like get out right now you're fired him horrible horrible human being Pat Kemp's and he's like, where's Bob? And I'm like, I let him go. He's like, you what? I said, I let him go.

The guy didn't bring a Sharpies, Pat. Pat, just looked at me and went, you are a monster and hired him back the next day. Much to me, much to my chagrin. I thought Bob deserved to be living in the shopping cart. What a horrible. I don't know why you were friends with me then, Pat. I really don't.

I really don't. But it has been a great, great journey. and thank God I'm no longer that man. The Glenn Beck Program.
