Welcome to the Glenn Beck program, live from KNRS in Salt Lake City today. I'm here for a couple of days for really important fundraiser on something about American history. I'll tell you about that later. We have to start, I guess, with Twitter. and what came out? Is this a big deal? Not a big deal? What does it all mean?

Is this the end of it? We're at the very beginning of this battle of the Titans. And Elon Musk said in an interview over the weekend, I want everybody to know I'm not suicidal. He's worried about his security. If I were him, I would be a little concerned about it too, as he takes on the giants of media. We start there in 60 seconds.

But if I may, first let me tell you about our sponsor, its relief factor. The weather is changing, starting to get cold in places. I was in Fort Lauderdale yesterday. I was with the Bombs of America. And then I flew here to Salt Lake where it was snowing. So I know something about the weather changes. It is cold here and cold always adds to the pain in my life.

If that happens to you, may I suggest relief factor. It was created by doctors to help your body reduce inflammation, which is the major source of most pain and it has four key ingredients that work together with your body as it fights against the effects of aging, exercise, and everyday living. Relief factor. I take it every day and have for a long time, And whenever I stop, because I'm like, I'm feeling good.

Pain starts to come back. This really works for me. Would you try it? Relief factor? Get their three-week quick start. 800 for relief. 1-800 for relief. Relief factor.

Feel the difference. Well, let's say hello to Stu. Hello, Stu. Hello, Glenn. How are you? I'm good. I'm good. Carrie Lake is coming up in just a second.

We're going to talk to her about what's going on in Arizona. It's a mess in Arizona. And let's talk a little bit about Twitter. Did you go over the expose that was done this weekend on Twitter? Matt from Matt Taibi, the journalist. Yeah, Elon Musk basically seemed to give him a cachet of some sort of a bunch of emails about whatever the Democrats were doing around the Hunter Biden laptop era. right before the 2020 election. And he was going to go through it and kind of see what was there.

It was interesting that he didn't, you know, Musk wasn't trying to do it himself. He was giving it to who he saw as a responsible journalist to go through it. Oh, boy. Okay, okay. That's the second time you've said that word. And I just can't, you know, you said a journalist and then respected journalist. The guy is a blogger.

I know because I've read it in the New York Times. I've read it in Politico. I've read it and heard it from NBC, MSNBC, CNN, ABC News. He's a blogger. I heard it from the Rolling Stone. Wait, they should know. Because he worked for them, didn't he? Yeah, well, he was a contributing editor to the Rolling Stone and took down some major, some major things.

But I mean, does that make you a journalist? And now he's a now. So even Rolling Stone is saying now he's a blogger. He's a blogger. Okay. He's a blogger. And I assume they'd say the same about Barry Weiss, who is, you know, one of the big points over at the New York Times. She's a substack blogger.

Right. That is what they're trying to do here, I guess, to push this off. To me, don't you think it's changed? I think journalist is actually less credible than blogger. I mean, especially a substack blogger. I mean, oh, you mean, like. Glenn Greenwald and Barry Weiss and Taibi. Yeah, I think I'm going to run in that pack, not the others.

Well, I mean, you know, you listen to Barry Weiss talk about her departure from The New York Times. And she, you know, talks about how there was all sorts of pressures within the organization to not say what people believed. And, you know, they went after people who questioned the narrative the wrong way over and over and over again. So you think when you're free to do whatever you want to do, you're at least going to be honest about it, right? You're going to come out and say the things that you believe. And I think you got that a little bit from the initial Twitter files release, which kind of did a little bit of both sidesism. You know, it was kind of saying, well, there was some stuff on both sides and there were some good Democrats and all of this. But generally speaking, what it pointed to was a real effort by the Biden campaign, as we suspected to.

to go after narratives they thought did not serve them. And part of that was the Hunter Biden laptop. But part of the reason why I'm not like all over this so far is because I don't think we have the real picture yet. I think we have only a small slice. I think that these documents were turned over to a couple of journalists who have not had, or bloggers who have not had the time to fully go through them and give us. a moment by moment look as to who did what and how they did it.

And it's going to take time, I think, for that to sort of marinate and go through the system. Here from 40,000 feet, here's what we discovered. Elon Musk released some of this inside information and some of the documents that showed that a couple of things. One, the FBI was meeting with them monthly. And then as it got close to the election, they were meeting with them weekly. That is troublesome. Again, not something that we didn't know, but it is something that was called a conspiracy theory for a long time. That they were taking the Hunter Biden story and they were getting advice from the FBI

and the people inside of Twitter were the ones that were torpedoing it with the advice from the Biden campaign. Well, that's what we found. So it's not new to any conservative. However, it is new to the press. And it is new to the press. This is why this is a big deal. You're not going to feel, in my opinion, you're not going to feel like, whoa, wow, look at that smoking gun. Because we've been talking about it. We've known this was going on. The whole world has known this was going on. And what they found was the right will get some things, you know, on their side as well. But the disturbing part to me was it comes through personal contacts. So it is truly, would you call it nepotism? You know, you got to know somebody. And if you knew somebody in Twitter, you could get the world changed. And so you had people reaching out.

to their friends in Twitter, reaching out to their former co-workers, maybe at the White House, and saying, hey, look, this is a problem. Can you take care of it? Yep, I got it. I'll take care of it for you. Yeah. And of course, implicit in that is that 90% of the people who worked at Twitter were liberal. So all of their friends were liberal. So most of the stuff that got edited was stuff that liberals wanted to be edited. And so it was not fair, as they pointed out, it was not balanced. It's not like both sides. did the same thing by any means. The only thing I... Both sides did the same things, but not anywhere, you know, when it's, you know, one time for every nine times, that's, you know, it's not doing the same thing.

And I think, like, the only thing that we still need to see here is this is one of those things that's just confirmed what we believed was going on and what we've had evidence of already occurring, right? We have a major... We already have evidence that goes down this road pretty significantly. this backed it up. It hasn't reached the level yet that is to what I expected. I've just set this to the standards so high for this because I assume what they've done is so

terrible during these election periods that we haven't seen that evidence yet. I think it'll come out. You know, I think that we're going to see it eventually, but so far we haven't seen it. We've only seen 80% of what I believe was going on, not 100%. So here's why this is important. If you are in with the it crowd, the it crowd controls really the narrative still in America because the New York Times and television and everything else still is caught in that. Now, I don't know if the American people are still caught in that. But unless you get both sides talking about something, it's not going to filter down to the average American.

Okay. And here's the really interesting part. First, they said that this was a conspiracy, that that wasn't happening. Now that we have the evidence and the actual documents to show that it is that way, what do they do? Now, I am somebody that just, I don't believe in coincidence. I just don't. Sometimes, you know, wow, what a coincidence. Sometimes, but I always look first, hmm, That's a weird coincidence. Are we seeing this any place else? For instance, when they talked right after COVID started, they were all saying the same thing. And then they all started to say the new normal. And then it went from the new normal to the Great Reset. And everybody, all of a sudden one day, everybody's talking about the Great Reset as a positive. And they're not explaining what the Great Reset is.

They're just saying we need a Great Reset. Do you remember any of that? This is what happened over the weekend. To take Taibi and destroy him as a journalist, they accuse him of PR work. He's just being a public relations person. To whom? To, quote, the richest man in the world. And what does that make it?

Sad. Embarrassing. Humiliating. Now let me go through some of these things. This is the primetime editor for Mediite. Matt Taiibi went from a fierce and intrepid journalist taking aims at the wealthy and powerful to doing mundane PR for the world's richest huckster.

Embarrassing. Ben Collins, senior reporter for NBC. Imagine throwing it all away to do PR work for the richest person in the world. Humiliating. Bloomberg. Editors are great not just because they make your work sharper, but because they will ask things like,

hey, should you be doing PR work for the richest man on the planet? MSNBC. Imagine volunteering to do online PR work for the world's richest man. Let's see. Media matters. Matt Taibi thread is a great example of overriding when you don't have the goods, but you want to admit you're just doing PR for the world's richest person. Matt McDermott, doing PR for the richest person in the world should come as no surprise.

The correspondent for the New York Times, CNN, Daily Beast, Huffington Post, and is a host on Al Jazeera, tweeted Matt Taibi, what sad, disgraceful, downfall. I swear, he did good work in the old days. Should be a cautionary tale for everyone, selling your soul for the richest white nationalist on earth. Oh my gosh. The editor-in-chief, something called Popula.com, wrote, one minute, you're scouring Goldman Sachs, the next, you're doing PR for the richest man in the world. Funny. It goes on and on and on.

They all said the same thing. They're doing PR work for the richest man in the world. So what they're doing is he sold out. But did Matt sell out? I mean, Matt left the mainstream media for a reason. What was that reason? Barry Weiss left the mainstream media for a reason. What was that reason?

What was it? To sell out? Or to be able to tell the truth that they saw without some editor going, nah, that Hunter Biden's story is not really a story. Because it's a conspiracy. No, nope. It turns out that the FBI was lying to you. It wasn't a conspiracy.

It is a big deal. Now, Elon Musk has put the Democrats on notice. He said that there's more smoking guns to come. He also said he's not going to sign autographs anymore, and he doesn't want to be in crowds anymore. He's a little concerned for his health, and I don't think it's because he's a smoker. he believes that he's living in a in some sort of a spy novel and I think he he might be

by the way according to the Daily Wire it looks like they may have interfered at Twitter may have interfered in the Brazilian election as well interesting it's almost as if these public-private partnerships between those who want to control the world and those who are the mouthpiece for the world are seeing the opportunity by coming together and working together to make sure that the little people know exactly who they should vote for and what they should think. more in just a second.

is he a picky eater? Is your dog starting to get older? Is your dog just somebody that you want to have them live the healthiest life? I really thought Uno was very healthy. He was, you know, youngish and active. But until we started feeding him rough greens, I didn't realize how for him inactive he was.

Oh yeah All right Stu how was your weekend Very good Very good As you may have noted I'm sure you watched The Eagles 1 35 to 10

So I'm very excited about the weekend Oh yeah there's some Christmas stuff I did with the kids too Ha ha ha How about yourself? Well Yeah well Well Well

the well did you win like some sort of big award I mean it was more than just kind of went well I won a major award a major award was it a leg lamp was it a lamp

it was a leg lamp and it's very fragili so it's from Italy no I won the legacy award from Moms for America and I I'm first of all

I have no idea why I got it and that's honest I have no idea it's like what how did I what what did I do to well I think a lot of people do say mother when thinking of you that's what I said I said I'm the biggest mother here I think um anyway um the uh the the thing is it was the legacy award and when I when I found that out I thought and then what you get to give to like old people like you know it's like oh he's kind of sad

But unless you're Barack Obama, you don't win major lifetime achievement awards when you're like your first day at the job. I mean, you usually have to be around for a while. Right. I mean, you know, yes, Obama is the exception to that. But yeah, I think you have to be. It was a really big honor. The people there, I felt so uncomfortable because, you know, I just talk about it. They actually do stuff.

and I'd much rather just talk about it. It's a lot easier to talk about stuff than to do stuff. Sit here in your chair and just yap about it. You know what you should do? You mom should get together and do stuff. Yeah, get out there and organize and do a lot of things that make it better for me. Yeah. Yeah.

And then do it. Give me an award for that. Well, yeah. We chose the right path here. I mean, this is clearly. This is the greatest job for lazy people ever, ever. Listen, kids, if you're lazy and you can read, you do have to read. But that's pretty much it.

If you're lazy and you can read, the world of podcasting is your oyster. As we prove all the time, you don't even have to speak. I mean, really, you don't have to have the ability to speak clearly. No. We show that almost every day. Again, good for you, youngans. America's standards are getting lower and lower and lower. So it's good stuff.

It's good stuff. We used to have to be good at something. Not anymore. You just show up. If you're the podcaster and you're like, I guess I could be there three hours every day, Monday through Friday. Half the podcasts I listen to now are 20 minutes long. What are you three hours? Isn't that sweet?

We're still living in the old time. I know we are. Doing full shows for full networks. I mean, geez. Legacy. Oh, well, thank you very much. Oh, thank you. All right.

One of the people that got an award, the mother of a year award, was Carrie Lake. And I agree again, many people on the left would say she's one of the bigger mothers around. So we'll talk to her. What's happening in Arizona? and is she bringing this to the Supreme Court? We'll talk to her in just a minute. The Glenn Back Program. Well, let me tell you something.

And there's a couple of things that I think Republicans in particular have to understand. There are so many legal things that you can do that parties do to gather a bunch of votes and turn them in and everything else. And the Democrats are very good, much better than the Republicans, at doing all the, those legal things.

Then, conspiracy theory alert, if anybody wants to play dirty, they're also doing that and are very good at that. If we even want to be competitive, we have to do all of the legal things. And we suck at getting the vote out. And if we don't, if we don't get this down quickly, we won't win. more elections. We won't win. Now, with that being said, on the dirty side of it, I, you could convince me if you show me the evidence and then beyond showing me the evidence, what are we going to do about it on voter fraud and all of the stuff that's happening

with our elections? We have to clean this up. Now, Mary Lake, who I find it really tough to believe that she lost the election fair and square. And there was a lot of things that were happening, especially in Maricopa County, that seem, oh, I don't know, less than honest. And she is not giving up her challenge. She has not conceded. In fact, she says she's going to take this case all the way to the Supreme Court. I wanted to talk to her about her case. Welcome, Carrie, how are you?

I'm doing great. And thank you for having me on this morning. We're, you know, I'm spending a lot of time talking to attorneys these days after spending 530 days, you know, crisscrossing Arizona campaigning to have the election go the way it did. Maricopa County is, frankly, the new Cook County. And they found a million ways to, you know, as you said, from grabbing ballots and drop boxes and all of that. And then they find ways to kind of sneak around and nibble around the laws. And we have an excellent case. We're going to be bringing it. I believe this week, we're seeing

what happens today. They're supposed to certify Arizona's election. A lot of people say, Carrie, what's going on? Why haven't you brought a case forward? In Arizona, it's a little bit backwards, shocking. You have to have an election certified before you can challenge it. Which is ridiculous. Once you certify a election, it's at least in the U.S. Constitution. I don't know what it's like in Arizona, but in the U.S. Constitution, once it's certified, it's done. And nothing changes that. Well, Arizona statute requires if you're going to challenge an election, that it be certified.

I guess before it's certified, it doesn't really count as a legal election. And we are going to be challenging it. We've got systemic illegal voting. I believe in the hundreds of thousands of votes going on in Maricopa County. Do I want to be in the middle of this fight? It's uncomfortable. It's not fun. But if we don't take this up right now, Glenn, we're not going to have a country much longer.

We ignored what happened in 2020. We allowed big tech mainstream media to attack us and call us conspiracy theorists for even talking about what happened in 2020. And we can't be silent at this moment. It's not even about me anymore. It's about our kids. It's about their future. They've taken our voice away when it comes to our freedom of speech. And our other voice is our vote.

And when you've got the water so muddied with a month in it, a month of voting, two weeks of ballot counting, we've got problems. Our voices are not being heard. So, Carrie, do you have, and I, you don't need to get into the details at this point because I don't want to steal the thunder of the, you know, when you actually file. I'd love to have you back on and talk about those facts or even an attorney. But the problem we had with the presidential election is we had a lot of smoke and no one was actually talking about the fire because they didn't have the evidence. It's a little like Arizona. It takes you a while to compile everything.

And so they didn't have the evidence. and there were some bad actors on the scene as well. Do you have evidence of this that would show a massive change? We have a lot of evidence. We have whistleblowers. We have experts. We have affidavits from voters who were disenfranchised. The difference between 2020 and 2022 in Maricopa County is that we were kind of caught flat-footed, like, whoa, what happened there with that election in 2020?

and it took a long time for people to try to pull things together, figure out what really happened. They did a lot of the same things in 2022 and then some. Our movement was so massive. They had to do the usual, you know, sly moves, and then they had to go even more obvious by basically sabotaging and shutting down Election Day operations. They punished the voter on Election Day. And the difference this time around is we had poll watchers, poll workers, observers, lawyers, all over. And so we have, we've got it documented.

We haven't documented what happened and we're ready to go. But think about how big this movement is. And I want to talk to people who are listening to Glenn this morning who are discouraged and say, oh, I just don't want to have to do this fight. Our movement is so big that they couldn't do just the normal shenanigans. They had to pull out all the stops. They had to, as I said, sabotage election day, more than 60% of election day only polling locations. had inoperable or semi-inoperable equipment,

had lines that were anywhere from two to five-hour lines. We'll never know how many people were fully disenfranchised. When you pull up and you see a line snaking around a building and there's no parking and you don't have time, you know, a lot of people just said, I can't do this. I don't have four hours to give to vote. Not to mention the equipment that didn't work, the toner that was missing in the ballot printers,

the ballots being printed in some cases on the wrong, long-sized paper so it misread and people being forced to take that sacred vote and put it in drawer three and hope to God that it got counted. It just reeks to high heaven and we have more than just the stench of this. We have evidence and we will be presenting it in a court of law. And while it's not fun and I know everyone's tired and we're tired of the fight, you know, I just say look into the eyes of your children, your grandchildren, look into the eyes of somebody who's in their 20s and say,

hey, good luck. We're not, we're tired of fighting. Good luck. Enjoy living under tyranny. Have fun. And this, and this has to be fought at the local and state level. The Constitution does not allow the federal government to run the elections. And I know there's a lot of Republicans that'll say, we got to get this fixed. Fix it at the federal level. Don't because it's corrupt at the fed everything at the federal level is corrupt we only have a chance if we fix it at the state level which the constitution requires us to do so yeah we're going to have to have these battles in you know maybe 50 states but it's better than just sitting around whining about it we lose our country if we lose the vote i agree absolutely we have some federal laws that we believe we're broken

as well. So we have a lot of options here and we do lose our country. You know, this isn't about Republicans. It's not about Democrats and independents. It's about our kids in the future. And if our sacred vote is trampled and we don't at this moment do something about it, we'll never win another election. More importantly, our kids will never have a voice. They won't be able to chart the future, the course for their future. It's going to be somebody else doing it. And, you know, The thing about Maricopa, it's one of those mega counties, 62% of the state of Arizona lives in Maricopa County. So if you have one county that's run in a shady way with corrupt elections, it can

affect and disenfranchise every voter in the state. Because it had an election that was run great in the Yavapai County or Coconino County or whatever other county, it doesn't matter. This county is so massive. And the two men running the election in Maricopa County, even though they are Republicans, they were very much anti-Maga Republican. They ran a pack with the sole intent to stop anybody who questioned the election and the honestness of the truthfulness of our elections. And we found out, after digging into that pack, that all of the expenditures were spent trying to defeat one candidate. Me.

You. Yeah. So the two guys are rolling the balance. We are facing two deadly enemies, and yet they're the same, except one is labeled a Democrat and one is labeled a Republican. There is a fight in the Republican Party. We can't get anything done because there are those who are progressives in the Republican Party, and those progressives, well, they want to keep the game going. They agree with many of the things on the left.

And they want to keep the game going. But I think the American voter that votes for a Republican, for the most part, are tired of this game. And they are really tired of the Republican Party. I agree. We need to get our act together as Republicans and start being Americans first and foremost. You know, we got word this weekend that Hobbs' office colluded with big tech to silence those who spoke out. in the 2020 election. And we're digging around to see how deep that went.

And, you know, there are a lot of Republicans out there, including the two people, the Republicans running Maricopa County elections who wanted to silence anybody who spoke out and questioned what happened, the veracity of our elections. We have a right to question our government. Didn't you have an email you guys released, I think, over the weekend, or maybe it was Thursday or Friday,

an email from, I think, Twitter, where you showed collusion with Katie Hobbs. Can you explain that? Yeah, it was coming from the Secretary of State's office, and her office was reaching out to Twitter, basically saying, hey, you know, we got a problem with this tweet, we got a problem with that tweet,

it's misinformation, can you take it down? You know, this is a first amendment violation. This is serious stuff. Our government colluding with big tech to silence us, to take our First Amendment rights away. And that is, That's a game changer, really. What we saw what happened.

And why is the mainstream media not covering this story? Why is the mainstream media? Why are they not covering what happened in Maricopa County truthfully? It's really frightening times we're living in right now. We're trying to get the word out. You know, I don't know what the solution's going to be. I don't know what the courts will say. But we can't have our government silencing us.

That is a direct break in our First Amendment. And that's what we saw happen. And I think that's what Elon Musk revealed this weekend was really big. Unfortunately, these mainstream media outlets are not covering it. And I think people need to start questioning them. Use what you've got left of your First Amendment to call those mainstream media operations and say, why aren't you covering this story? Were you part of it?

Why are you not covering it? Are you for censorship? We've got to start asking some tough questions and holding our media accountable because they are truly just propagandists at this point if they're not covering some. stories like this. Kerry, thank you so much. God bless you. And let us know when you do file, we'll be watching and let us know how we can help

you get the word out. Appreciate it. Thank you. Appreciate it, Glenn. Bye-bye. You bet. Bye-bye. Let me tell you about our sponsor of this F-Hour.

It's American financing. Let's say you have a credit card with $10,000 balance on it. You're paying what? The minimum amount each month. And you're not using the card and racking up additional debt. Guess how long that will take to pay off? The answer is eight and a half years. That's if you ignore the extra fees that you'll get from compound interest.

So this is the part where you pencil in some time to talk to American financing. See if they can help you get out of your credit card debt faster by applying the equity that you have in your home. You could be saving about $700 a month. That's the average of the people who are doing business now who call American financing $700 a month. For over 20 years, these guys have been helping families just like you. They work for you and not the bank. American financing at 800906 2440. 800, 906 2440.

Big day tomorrow, Glenn, in Georgia, where Herschel Walker and Raphael Warnock are going to have their runoff election.

Yeah. I'd say it seems like general consensus is that. Warnock is a slight favorite here. And I think, you know, the experts, if you will, believe he's going to win, though it should be pretty close. If you are in Georgia, this is a good time to make sure you've got a plan and go vote. Go vote and go convince others to vote because it's very, very important, obviously. The control of the Senate isn't on the line, but you've got two more elections after this where this seat will be locked in. And don't we have enough socialist, Marxist, crazy people, you know, in the Senate already?

Don't we have that enough? Can we stop? A yes, a hard yes on that one. Yeah, it's a hard yes for me, too. The New York Times had an interesting spin on this election this weekend, Glenn, where, if you remember, they pitched that these new Georgia voting laws would crush voting for people. Remember this? It was like, oh, you're going to oppress people. They're not going to be able to go out and vote.

It's going to be too difficult. Baseball, we can't go to Atlanta. Yeah, they pulled the All-Star game out of the state for this. And then, of course, you know, voting records were set. And so now their new spin is that mail-in voting was down, even though overall voting was one of the strongest of all time. But that's the new complaint from the New York Times. Now, I thought the mail-in voting thing was just because of COVID.

But now that people aren't as afraid of COVID, they just came out to the polls and voted. Now they're saying it's still a problem because they wanted mail-in voting to be the way to be voted. Lord, help me not hate my enemy, please. The lies that go on. I just can't take it. Go out and vote tomorrow. The Glenn Back Program.

It is Monday. And I'm going to go over a couple of things. First of all, the conspiracy theory that Twitter is actually working with Democrats and those on the left. to silence the right. What a conspiracy. Oh, no. Wait. That's true.

Yes, now verified. All right. So we'll move on to the other conspiracy theory that the ESG thing is going to come and affect you and in some of your investments. And you won't even know about it. Well, that's been verified with a new labor, Department of Labor rule. All right. Well, the conspiracy theory that there's. going to be, you know, some sort of digital currency from the central bank.

Wait, the Fed coin is... All right, okay. Well, at least they haven't proven that conspiracy theorists say the World Economic Forum is going to put farmers out of business. What? The Netherlands? All right, well, I have nothing left but to talk to... Carol Roth, who's going to give you the info on all of those in 60 seconds. All right, you twisted freak.

Let me tell you about relief factor. Doug wrote in. He said, I've gotten to the point where I could no longer walk, let alone hike, more than a mile, without sitting down. Geez, Doug, that's pretty good. I'm getting to the point where I can barely walk to the refrigerator without having to sit down. Anyway, he says, so after I, I started taking Relief Factor, I've been able to hike normally with no problems at all. You know what hiking is?

Walking. Except it's walking up a mountain where nobody put a trail because nobody ever wants to walk there. Gosh. Hiking. Anyway, pain is completely gone, he says. Thank you so much, Relief Factor. Oh, what am I chopped liver here, Doug? Go to Relief Factor and find your relief now.

Relieffactor.com. Get a trial pack. Three week. Three week quick start. Just try it. Relieffactor.com. 1-800, 4 relief. 1-800, the number 4 relief. Relieffactor.com. Feel the difference. Carol Roth. How are you? Sounds very feisty for a Monday morning. I'm not sure I can handle all of this. We're coming off the weekend here. I have to tell you, I can't take the mainstream media and half of the country,

that is like, that's a conspiracy theory. What? That you're stupid, that you don't pay attention, that you can't read? What is the conspiracy theory at this point? Because all of the things that people like you, people like me, we have been talking about now for years, are just being verified one right after the other. Yeah, I think a definition of a conspiracy theory at this point is something that the media will report on three years later after we all knew that it happened. Exactly right. Exactly right.

There's a difference between conspiracy theories and conspiracy facts. So let's talk about the facts. Let's start with the CBDC, the central bank digital currency. Yes, okay, first of all, CBDC is not a bar in New York City. So this is, this is something different. But it is tied into the monetary system. And basically, this is something that, more than 100 countries around the world who are losing control of their fiat currencies

because of their government overspending and because of their central bank printing, they're trying to come up with a new scheme to be able to maintain that power and control. So the idea of a central bank digital currency is to confuse you. People are interested in cryptocurrencies because they're decentralized and because they don't have that centralized power. And so they're trying to glom on to that interest and say, oh, yeah, we're just like that, except they're exactly the opposite. They are completely centralized, and they give entire control. So imagine today, you know, the Treasury prints up a Federal Reserve note, we call it a dollar, right?

And imagine that dollar had a chip in it. And so when you went to go pay with your dollar, the Fed was tracking you, the government was tracking you. the government was tracking you and saying, you know what, Glenn, you've had too many burgers this month. We really don't want people eating meat because it's bad for the environment. So this dollar is no good anymore. This is what is central bank digital currency, assuming that it's a retail-facing one,

one that the consumers will use is going to do. And guess what? The New York Fed is doing a 12-week digital dollar pilot with entities including Wells Fargo, City Group, MasterCard, at about six others. So, Carol, they're saying that because they're not sure if they can convert our system of transferring money, which doesn't involve any trucks, but the digitizing of actual

physical dollars and sending them overseas in bulk, they're not sure they can work out the math on how to do that without the U.S. dollar. That sounds like the biggest bunch of bull crap I've ever heard. They're wondering if it's going to work for the data transfer? You're doing it every day now. So the U.S. is the leader in payments. And if you go and you look at all the different, the bank policy institute, all the different folks who are kind of looking at policy around this,

everyone's going, you know, America doesn't need this. Like it's one thing for some small country that doesn't have the infrastructure. structure, but we have laser-fast settlement of payments. We have laser-fast transactions through private entities. There is no need for this. The need is a want and a desire for control and power by the people who are in charge and by the people who have not been taking care of those dollars. And so they need a new scheme, and this is the scheme.

And, oh, by the way, this is how they're going to do this, Glenn. My best guess right now, all the stuff we're seeing with the crypto woes, the FTX clap, the hacking, the fraud, they're going to tell you, oh, we need regulation. We need regulation around crypto because, you know, crypto is bad. And they're going to regulate it, and they're going to sneak in congressional approval because that's the one thing is that a central bank digital currency, the Fed does not have authorization from it. It must come from Congress. I mean, not that that stops anybody anyway, but just theoretically speaking. And so keep an eye out, whatever bills are coming down the pike, they are going to try to stuff this in here. And this, I'm not joking at all.

I'm not hyperbole. This will be the end of economic freedom if a retail CBDC comes to fruition. I, you know, I'll go a step further. I'm not saying this is the mark of the beast, but it has. all of the earmarks of just not being able to live in society without it. You won't be able to do anything without it, correct? Yeah, I mean, listen, it impacts your livelihood, you know, how you get paid, how you transact. I mean, it is the foundation.

Stable money is the foundation of a stable society. Now, people will say, though, Carol, that I already interact with my money this way. I don't get an actual paycheck and bring into the bank. It's digitally transferred into my bank. And then I spend either a credit card or a debit card everywhere I go. I mean, I go to a gas station. I put the card in. So what's the difference?

Well, you know, that year, first of all, you're doing by choice, and you have a choice of providers. And the providers aren't the government. and it doesn't have the authority to come in and say, I'm sorry, you know, we're just going to cut off your ability to take in money or to put out money. We're going to freeze it. I mean, think about the trucker convoy up in Canada. You know, they just froze their assets.

They can do this, you know, with just a flick of a switch, just, you know, one off and say, I'm sorry that that's it. You can't, you know, we've gotten rid of cars. We're not going to let you hail an Uber. We're not going to let you do this. You said something bad on social media. We didn't like it. So we are going to come down.

This is a tool to get people to submit to what the government wants. And it is the ultimate bullying tactic, the ultimate control tactic to be able to control every facet of how you transact. I will tell you that it is what people will say, well, I'm not doing anything wrong. You don't have to do anything wrong. You just have to want to spend your money on hamburger as opposed to fish or bugs or whatever it is. You just want you want gasoline and there's a shortage and you're not part of the crew that is deemed essential. So you get no gasoline. This is, you know, everybody complains about socialized or, you know, about a free market health.

care. First of all, we don't have free market health care. We haven't had free market health care in a very long time. Government is all over it. And now with Obamacare, it's worse. However, this is the point. Look at what's happening now in Canada. Canada actually said to a Canadian veteran who just needed, she's like probably 40. She couldn't walk up her stairs anymore because of the pain. So she calls veterans a veteran. affairs and they say she said i just want one of those chair things that go up the stairs she said that they told her and she's not the only one um we can assist you in suicide if it's just so bad she's like what this is what's happening you'll just you'll have no options no options

you will own nothing they've put it out there you will own nothing and like you said the word i want to key in from what you were talking about before was essential because this is what they did to us in 2020. They said some of us were essential, some of us were non-essential. So it's not like we don't have a case study that's less than a couple of years old to say that they are going to pick winners and losers. They're going to do that based on political clowning connections. And guess it's not going to be in that inner circle. Well, probably everybody listening to the program, including you and me. So this is an epic, epic. disaster and this is something that everybody should be writing their representatives and their

senators and saying absolutely not this is a complete affront to our free. Let's go into because I want to talk to you about the farms, but I want to do that in detail. And I think we're going to have to hold you over at the bottom of the hour to really get into that because it's so important. Give me one minute and then I want to come back. The Department of Labor just did something with ESG. But remember, ESG, not happening. It's a conspiracy theory.

When I first started talking about ESG, how many in this audience thought this is not? It's not going to. And now have you noticed how it is everywhere? Yeah, who told you that? And more importantly, who told you that it wasn't happening? Make sure you're no longer listening or watching any of those sources. All right. we're going to come back there's a new department of labor

uh it's a helper that's all they're trying to do is just help you live we'll get to that in a second you're never more than one generation away from losing our freedoms and we are in the generation that could lose the freedoms i mean you know i said uh i said somewhere someplace the other day that um we're holding a lose losing hand politically. Politically, we're holding a losing hand. Everything is stacked against us and we don't have our crap together and everything else. Spiritually, our hand is winning. Should we choose to pick it up? But we better choose soon because we are losing our freedoms and your children, my children, are going to be the ones that are either dealing with this and living under this, quote, utopian, dystopian world, or they're free.

And we need to arm them with the truth. And the way to do that is with the Tuttle Twins books. They tell fun and amazing stories all the time where they teach your kids things like how free markets works, how the country was truly founded, how big government will always become oppressive. There is a bigger need than ever for young people. to rise up and say no to tyranny. This is going to fall to you.

They will not learn this any place else. Now listen, there are only a few days left to order these books before the shipping deadline if you want to have them before Christmas. So don't wait. Call them right now. Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Go there now. Order these life-changing books for all the kids in your life.

This makes a great Christmas gift. Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. 10 seconds, station ID. So it's really interesting because the central bank digital currency, the CBDC, the Fedcoin, if you will, was released and they announced that they were going to put it into trial at 3 o'clock in the afternoon the day before Thanksgiving. You know, when all of us are paying attention to the news.

Quietly also during the Thanksgiving week, the Department of Labor finalized a rule that blows up some standard benefit plans on how to invest in your best financial future. Carol Roth joins us. What did they do, Carol? All right. So first of all, I want to say, I almost missed this, Glenn. And it was one of your listeners who works in the industry who alerted this to me because they shoved it in. Like you said, right before Thanksgiving.

He doesn't want to be given a shout out because. As you can imagine why, but thank you for doing this. So basically, almost 50 years ago, in 1974, something called ERISA was passed, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, that basically covers retirement plans and welfare benefit plans. And basically it says that if you are the manager or, quote, unquote, sponsor of a plan, you have to act, and this is a quote, solely in the interest, unquote, of employees and beneficiaries.

So basically in your best financial interest, if somebody's managing it, they can't put their best interest, they can't do things just off the cuff, they have to say this is going to be in your best financial interest as an employer beneficiary of the plan. Stop for a second because I think it's important for you to understand the money that you make that you work so hard for, you put it away for your retirement. You are giving it to that responsibility that somebody is going to do the best thing for you. Let's sit down and talk about your plans. What are your plans for retirement? Have you made any? Well, you better get started now. All of that crap.

What they've done is taken out your best financial interest. Now, let's talk about your plan because your retirement is important to you. But, you know, there's some other things that are important to us and other stakeholders. So we'll do our best after listening to you on what your dreams of your financial future are, but we'll balance them with the things that we all think should be done with your money. Are you out of your mind? It is egregious. I mean, this was one of those really good laws.

There are a few in Farbeach, but this is a really good thing for you to have protection. So when somebody is managing your retirement funds in a plan, in a retirement plan, they have to select, monitor, and cast shareholder votes based on your best financial interest. Now, and by the way, the Trump administration had put extra rules in place specifically around ESG. And so this was done to undo that and take it a step further. So now they're saying, well, you know, they can favor ESGs or something. something called ETI's economically targeted investments that you can only imagine what that. You know what ETI is?

ESG, because ESG people have caught on on what it is. So quick, let's rename it. Yes, also sustainable investing and a few other monikers to that. So basically they're now giving financial cover, and this, again, is now a Department of Labor rule, which needs to be challenged in the courts saying that, we no longer have to have your best interest if we're managing your funds at heart. That's crazy. We can do whatever we want.

This codifies business social credits. If your state has not taken on ES and G, if they haven't done all three, then you need to either move or start a movement that gets your state to take action. No liberal state is going to take action on ESG. But I'm telling you, it is the end. This goes hand in hand with the Fed coin. They are building structure where they take things from you and do things they want to do,

not necessarily what you want to do or what are in your best interests. They're extracting wealth. They're extracting freedoms. they're doing it for their benefit and against yours. And funny enough, Glenn, that the Department of Labor's own website super out of date, their last statistics for 2013, go figure. Oh, my gosh. I can only imagine they've grown since then.

But we're talking about 141 million workers, and at that time, again, it should be higher now, $7.6 trillion in assets that were covered by this. So this isn't just a small thing. this is the bulk of the wealth of the American people. And look at what's going to happen. Those people are going to lose their retirement, which will, or pieces of it, possibly.

And they will look to the government to fund their retirement even more. This is insanity. It is a rat trap. The Glenn Back program. Well, it's Christmas and the holiday season, and that means it's time for gift giving. parties, friends and family, getting compliments, of course, everywhere you go

This is the Glenn Beck program. Welcome. Glad you're here. We want to talk to you about a couple of things today. Still coming up on the program. I had a podcast over the weekend with Chloe Cole. she is somebody that 11 decided she was in the wrong body and doctors went along with it, didn't do any kind of psychological testing or even any real questions. They just cut off her breast at 15, stopped her, stopped her hormones at I think 12. So she had a lot going for her. Then after her breasts are cut off and she's maturing, she realizes what a mistake this is.

I wasn't in the wrong body. I was a kid that was 11 and I was looking at the changes to my body and everything else in a radically different way and nobody helped her. It's an amazing story that if you have kids or teenagers, you need to watch this and possibly watch it with them. You can find it on my YouTube page. Now, just go to YouTube.com slash Glenn, and you'll see a detransitioner exposes dark world of gender affirming care.

Okay. Well, you save them because I'm sure they're, I mean, the way you tell stories is just amazing and I want to savor that. Thanks. Let me honor your request as you were out of things to say there. No, I wasn't. I was going to turn to Carol. You just looked up at the screen like you're going to talk now.

I need to say something, Glenn. It's important. Oh, I looked up on the screen on a radio show. Gee, Glenn, that's a good thing to tell the audience, Mr. Radio Hall of Fame. I hate you so much. Do we have a sounder? I don't even know. How have we been together?

I mean, I don't like we've been together. And there you have it. Another example of why Glenn Beck is in the Radio Hall of Fame. I got to tell you. I got to tell you. I've been with you, my office wife, longer than I've been with my wife. And I don't know why we've never talked about divorce. But let's go to Carol Roth.

Hi, Carol. So for some extra good news And to bringing into this little squabble Let's bring in Carol So the nice thing is When Stu and I fight People are like, you guys, do you guys get along? No, we never have.

We never liked each other. So there's no damage to be done. So Carol, let's talk about what's happening in the Netherlands. We've already just this hour covered the Fed Digital Coin we showed you what the Department of Labor has just done to your retirement funds. You better check that out. And now, let me tell you, this is my biggest worry, because this is going to be a massive problem

that could make Mao's five-year plan look like kindergarten. Yeah, so, I mean, we talked about if you control the money, you control the people. But if you control the food, you control the people. So if you look at the Netherlands, it might be surprising to a lot of people that they are the second largest food exporter in the world behind the United States. I was surprised to learn that over the last couple of years. I guess something on the order of 4 million cows, 13 million pigs, 104 million chickens a year. They're Europe's biggest meat exporter. They provide vegetables to much of Western Europe.

So this is a farming juggernaut. A few years ago, you started getting protests, I think around 2019 in the Netherlands, because in the name of being good for the environment, cutting pollutants and emissions, the government said, you know, we're going to have to start pairing back some of this farming. So farmers, some of you, you know, we're going to have to cut down what you're doing, and some of you are going to put out of business altogether. So obviously that didn't go over really well.

with the farmers. We've seen the protests. Obviously, they escalated a little bit earlier this year. We saw that on the news. But this has a major impact for the global food supply, given the fact that they are that number two largest food exporter. Now, here's where the story gets weird. The Netherlands Prime Minister, like that wasn't weirder, right? Yeah, like that was. Yeah. So the Prime Minister, Mark Ruta, is a, you want to fill in the brag? Do you know who he's a soci? stated with you. Do you want to just guess what? No, I'm going to go way out on limb. World Economic Forum. Ah, ding, ding, ding, ding. We have

fabulous prizes for you. Yeah. So he is a member, a frequent collaborator, and he's been involved in a number of things. In 2021, the government of the Netherlands, the World Economic Forum, and a few other public and

private sector entities launched a food innovation hub to help transform the food ecosystem. This is, hang on, Carol, before you go on, this is something I barely touched on in my book, The Great Reset. By the way, we have part two, all of the technology and everything else that's coming. It will be releasing it after the first of the year.

We've been working all year on that one. But I've been talking about the food thing as I think the biggest threat to all of us, because this leads to global starvation. You are messing with the number two food producer of the world, and it's coming here. It already is making its mark here and in Canada. When you say, and this is their actual quote from the World Economic Forum, we will redesign how we produce and consume.

food from seed to fork. That's terrifying. That's terrifying. They have an initiative that surprisingly not enough people have been talking about. It's called the Food Action Alliance and their mission to reshape the way we think, produce, supply, and consume food. Anytime you hear reshape, redesign, rethink, it's like 99 out of 100 times the World Economic Forum. And for most of the world, I mean, we've been trending in the right direction in terms of global starvation and making sure that people are appropriately fed. It's working pretty well until we get the W-A-F guys involved here. And if you take a step back, you know, you talked about the U.S. and Canada, think about Sri Lanka and what we've seen here in the

recent past. You know, they were supposed to be this model ESG, model W-E-F, country. Let me hang on. Let me fill in that blank. In my book, The Great Reset, we talk about it and say, Sri Lanka was held up as the W.EF's own example, what we're doing in Sri Lanka, we will do for the rest of the world and watch us

and how this thing just takes off. Well, what happened to Sri Lanka? Yeah, well, you know, amongst other things, they banned chemical fertilizers, and they ended up with the first time in modern history with a food crisis and a complete economic collapse. You know, obviously a huge, huge issue that we watched happen real time this year based on them trying to be this model country, like you said. And their environmental score, by the way, was off the charts. Like it was in the like mid to high 90s. They're very good.

Yeah, very good. So, like, you know, it's great for the environment when nobody can eat, Glenn. I mean, that's, I mean, it's so, so sinister. So you've got the Netherlands, the prime minister who's tied in and is working hand in hand, and this is the second largest food exporter in the world, which means it not only impacts their population, although since they're in control, it probably won't as much, but certainly food for the rest of the world. as you see them pushing the bugs and the crickets and, you know, all these other weird things,

you know, at some point, you know, when the same names pop up over and over again, you go, you may have the coincidence the first couple of times, but when it happens like hundreds of times, it is no longer a coincidence. This is deliberate. So how long do you think this is going to take before Europe really feels the impact? The farmers have been protesting now for almost a year. Now the government has come in and said, you'll either comply or will buy your farm from you. And if you won't sell the farm, we'll just take it from you.

So now the government gets into farming, which I don't know if most people know this, but they're not farmers, they're politicians. And I don't really want to depend on all the food my lawyer can make and grow. But how long before this really hits Europe? Because Europe is already in trouble with fuel and cold and heat. They're in real trouble.

Yeah, completely self-inflicted as well. And I think it just depends on how quickly they push this and how much the people are fighting back. I mean, it sounds, you know, we've seen, you know, the amazing farmers and the Netherlands that create, They're being courageous and brave, and they are pushing back and saying, this is not acceptable. And so how that battle plays out, you know, I'm a good prognosticator. I'm not that good. But it's something to watch. You know, by the way, this whole idea of taking farmland out of use and conserving it, you know, or else they're doing that?

They're doing that here in the United States. The Biden administration is paying farmers to take away farmland and to have it and put it into conservation. and stop it from being used in farming. Well, that's what's happening all through the west, especially the mountain west. They are gobbling up land like crazy, and then you just can't use that land anymore. I know I have a ranch, and I have 1100 acres that my cattle can go graze on. Well, after grazing, they're all summer. they need a little bit more land from time to time.

And so they'll go up, you know, onto BLM land, Bureau of Land Management, which, by the way, you never want those, you never want people in Washington to be your neighbors. They're the worst neighbors. They never take care of the land. It's horrible. But you can graze on that BLM land. Well, they're taking, not in my case, but in many cases, they're taking that BLM land back. Well, now the farmer.

doesn't have enough square acres for the amount of cows, meaning you're going to have a shortage of meat. And all of this is intentional, all of it. It is. And so you have to keep an eye on that. And who's buying up land and who's buying up water? I mean, this is, you know, you talked about your upcoming book project, which I'm so excited about.

I have one that is upcoming as well. also a lot of things. The only reason I know about it is because I've been doing this deep dive, and it is utterly frightening because, you know, the other thing that you need that if you're going to have agriculture, is you need water, and now Wall Street and, you know, the powers that be are trying to get into financializing water as well. So water rights, land, you know, all these things.

This is a global issue. This is going to impact the global food supply. and this is really, really scary stuff. If you think back to times when there has been mass starvation in, you know, communist and socialist countries, a lot of times it wasn't even that there wasn't enough food being produced. It was just that the intermediaries were screwing up the system so much you couldn't get to where it needed to go.

Now we're talking about actually screwing up how much is being produced. I cannot think of anything that's a parallel in modern time. It's just completely frightening. The arrogance, Carol, is beyond imagination for you to say, I and a group of experts all around the world, we're going to get together. And we're going to show the farmers a new way to plant, feed, water, and grow. Then we're going to teach all the manufacturers and the canters and everything else what they have to do a totally new way. Then we're going to have a new distribution system. So we're going to tell the trucking and everything else.

And then we're going to tell the supermarkets exactly what they have to do. And then we're going to work on the consumer and tell them what they have to do. The arrogance of taking something that has built over thousands of years and say you're going to change it, all of it, from seed to fork in the next eight years is beyond. I mean, I would say it's suicidal, but they'll live the rest of us. It is maniacal. Carol Roth, thank you so much. I appreciate it.

Stay tuned for more details on this. But I have been reading his columns and his work, especially when it comes to the sexualization. of our children. He just wrote a great piece. Let me see if I can get the name of it here. De facto degeneracy. And it was up on his substack.

And he, I want him to take you through it. But he makes a, I think a very accurate prediction. If we don't wake up and stop this, we won't stop anything. This is our children. And this one should be very obvious. Aran, welcome. Oh, thank you so much for having me, Glenn. You bet.

So take me through the article of de facto degeneracy. Sure, absolutely. So I think a lot of people have noticed, obviously, this really disturbing trend with the need to kind of put on display for children, you know, drag queen story hours and these kind of sexual displays with, which, let's be honest, what are trans strippers. in a lot of these situations. They are billed specifically as family-friendly. They are sent out to children's organizations or to educational organizations, and they are meant specifically to attract children. And unfortunately, as we can see with accounts like Libs of TikTok,

there is lots and lots of evidence that these things are very far from it, that these performances are very explicit, as you would expect them to be from the type of performers who are doing them, and they are specifically targeted of children. And I think a lot of people ask, you know, when they see these performances, how are people getting away with this? How are people adults exposing themselves to children in these public situations? And nothing happens.

There should be crimes. There should be action taken. And so in the piece, you know, I talk about the difference between a, you know, de facto and de jure, right? the difference between what a law says technically, DeJure, and what actually happens, how it's actually carried out by agents of the state, which is de facto.

And I think even though most agents of the state know that DeJure, on paper, exposing yourself to a minor in a performance, would be something that would be illegal and would carry very serious charges and penalties under the law, they know that de facto, if they ever actually carry out, those penalties, they'll run a foul of they know that their careers will be over, that they'll be punished in the media that they'll be labeled at these performances with their penalties, even though they should, in theory, be violating the law.

This is, it's really terrifying the way you lay it out in this, in this article. Because we, we know, we know the boundaries. We all do. We know if somebody was exposing themselves or walking around. a children's playground in a G string dressed as a woman and g-rating, you know, in the middle of the park, we all know we would keep our kids away. We all know we would probably call police, especially if they're at the playground. We know that.

But what is it that makes us stop? I don't, I guess my question is, I don't understand what's happening. to people. Why is it that it seems like at least half the country is like, no, no, no, this is fine? Well, I think a lot of people have seen this labeled as the new civil rights issue, and they want to be on the right side of history, right? They want to be tolerant. They want to be accommodating. They want to be understanding. They don't want to. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What is the new civil rights issue? Because there's a big difference between Caitlin Jenner and this, the civil rights of the children, the innocence of the children is being ripped away from them.

This is not like Caitlin Jenner. This is about transgender stripping in front of children. There's no right to that. Well, I agree, Glenn, but I think there is more linkage here than maybe we would first up here. I think that when we ask society to, you know, all, you know, pretend a certain thing. When we're all being required to pretend that the emperor is wearing clothes when they are not, it has an impact on everybody. When you let that little sliver of a lie enter society and you make everyone kind of perform as if something that is a lie

is truth, I think that eventually erodes the barriers of understanding between what you're talking about and where we ended up. I think you naturally do move from Caitlin. or to this because when you ask people to believe that men are women, when you demand that for them to participate in society, they have to go along with this delusion, I think they naturally will move towards this point where there is no barrier. What we would think would be common sense is eroded by this lie that we've let slide into our society. So you go on to say if, if any, any of these arguments were used or translated into context of a church, the very same people would lose their minds.

It's true. I just saw a story today of some, you know, polygamist that's marrying children and me and everybody else losing their mind. That's got to stop. What is this? We all agree. However, what's the problem? he is religious or that he's married them because a lot of people in today's society don't have a

problem with sexualizing 12 year old 15 year old girls no that's absolutely true i think the real problem here is that the society has shifted its focus on the kind of religion that it's going to allow there is now i think a belief a a kind of a state sponsored belief in the idea that the protection of these identities is sacred and that it's necessary for the law to get involved in the media and different organizations and societies to get involved to protect these different identities even when they cross into these areas that we find abhorrent. And you have to, you know, if you're going to make transgenderism the next civil rights issue, then you have to do what you do with all civil rights issues.

You have to teach it to children very early on, right, that these are certain things that have to be protected, they have to be respected, they have to be tolerated. And so it's just, I think it's, again, just the natural development of this ideology when you have this consent-based morality where the only thing that decides what is moral is if two people agree, then you're going to naturally see the pressure on people to lower and lower, unfortunately, the type of the age of consent when it comes to things like transgender surgery, which is why we're now seeing puberty, puberty blockers and permanent mutilation pushed onto children younger and younger, because this is a key part of the less idea of tolerance of these ideas.

I have to tell you, I don't know if you've seen the podcast I did with Chloe Cole this last Friday, but it is, this is a girl that was 11, and when you hear her talk about it, you completely understand what she was thinking. She was thinking like an 11-year-old girl. And then the media started Instagram peer pressure, and she decides she's a boy. And now she's detransitioning and she's trying to go back to be a girl. But she'll most likely never breastfeed her children because she had her breasts removed. And so they don't know if they can ever repair that.

she may not be able to even bear children because of this. And no one is responsible for it. Nobody, it is a tragic, tragic story, and it is happening over and over and over and over again. Yeah, absolutely. I think that people, you know, this is a very permanent decision. There are many bad decisions that one can make as a young person. And while some of them can be tragic, there's usually some ability to recover over time. But these children are victims of this ideology in a way that is very permanent and very disturbing,

which I think, unfortunately, is what a lot of these activists are counting on. Once you've forced a child to make that kind of ideological commitment so young to the point where they permanently alter their body and end their ability to have a family, the kind of thing that kind of makes you a natural conservative over time, it's going to make you committed to a particular political outcome. It's going to make you award of the state in many ways. And it's also going to plug you into things like a lifelong commitment to a pharmaceutical industry that is very, very motivated to have you as a customer for the rest of your life dependent on the kind of stuff they're peddling to alter your body chemistry on a long-term basis.

Aaron McIntyre is our guest. He's going to be a meal here in announcement soon. He's going to have his own Blaze TV platform. We appreciate him coming up and thanks for joining the blaze. I want to read the last line in your, or last couple of lines, in your substack article. If a civilization does not believe to its very core that the sexualization of children is wrong in a very deep and non-negotiable sense, then no one is willing to stick their neck out to enforce the law as written. They will comply with power before any principle.

and that is how you know when you are truly lost. Any comment on that? Yeah, I think that as people are going to stand up against this stuff, like I said, they truly have to believe it's evil at its core. It's not something you can hold loosely. This is why I think so many parents are scared to step up because they know that society doesn't have their back. They know that the institutions don't have their back.

They know they're not going to have the support of the community. They know that power is set against them. And so the only thing that will allow people to be able to stand up and stop this and be heard and have the courage is the conviction that at its core, this is a non-negotiable thing. We're not talking about when children can have transitions. We're not talking about when puberty blockers are acceptable. It's never acceptable. It's never okay. It should be a crime for people to do this kind of thing.

And if we don't have that stance from the outset, people will never have the courage to stand up against it. Thank you, Aaron. Appreciate it. God bless. Thank you so much for having me. You bet. Arrin McIntyre. You can find that on his substack page. I will tell you, not only are people afraid of that nobody's going to run to their back, I think a lot of people don't know how to have these difficult conversations and maneuver around them that's why I think my my conversation with Chloe Cole was so

important you can find it at YouTube by the way our goal was to have a million YouTube subscribers I think we started the year with maybe 300,000 subscribers because we never paid attention to YouTube and and our goal was to have a million subscribers by the end of the year we are so close to that we're at 930 I what is it 935 937 something like that and so subscribe and and and make sure you rate and rank the show, if you will. But we want you to watch this particular thing. It's on Blaze TV, but it's also at YouTube.

And it is my conversation with a girl that transitioned. And because I am a parent and I am struggling to have these conversations with my kids, I wanted this to be something that my kids could watch and understand, and also model compassion for them to, you know, show how someone can believe something differently and still have compassion for people. So please watch this podcast. It's available now at YouTube or at the Blaze TV. Watch this podcast and share it with your family. Back in just a second, there is really no free lunch in this world. A lot of companies will try to sell you on that idea, but it's not realistic.

When some of these big mobile companies say, you know, free iPhones, well, is it, I mean, they're locking you into a long-term contract and building the price of the phone into your bill with hidden fees. So it's not really free. Jeez, when are we going to learn this? Then there are companies like Patriot Mobile who won't make you a promise they're not going to keep. They can show you how to get that same iPhone interest free without the games and without the contract. Why? Because they're honest and they do honorable business.

Here's a story, Stu, maybe this is from just the news, that maybe you can explain to me, because I don't know why we're not doing more. The Texas GOP and judges have called on Abbott to repel invasion

by preventing entry of illegal foreign nationals or returning those who enter illegally to Mexico. 40 Texas counties have now declared an invasion at the southern border. or have expressed support for Texas declaring an invasion. More are in the process of doing so, according to sources who have spoken to the Center Square. The most recent to join are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven counties. And they're calling on the governor to declare formally an invasion and repel it, which he hasn't done.

But right after the election, did he not say he was going to do that? What is he waiting for? I don't know the answer to that. I thought I remember us hearing. That's exactly what happened. As you mentioned, it happened after the election, which would indicate it wasn't like an election ploy per se. So I don't, I don't know. I guess we'll have to get, maybe we can get in touch with the office and find out what's going on.

He signed an executive order that does not declare an invasion. It authorized Texas law enforcement offers to apprehend illegal foreign nationals and return them to ports of entry. After Abbott tweeted content from part of that letter, judges without providing context, many of misreported that he declared the invasion. Yeah, maybe that's a reporting mistake. I don't know. I don't know, but that's, I mean, why won't we do this? The government is clearly not protecting the homeland.

They are not operating in the best interest of any of our states. man I'm really tired of of Governor Abbott you know being milk toasty we're Texas for the love of Pete why isn't Texas leading the way

I mean that's what I move there for I mean I'm there's like should we move to Florida I mean I don't know I know I know I mean he look you know Florida's great as well I love Texas

I mean you know it's interesting the whole sending immigrants to blue states did was led by governor Abbott and yet still governor DeSantis got all the credit for it so I don't know uh I know I know but I think they're both pretty good although DeSantis has more often been the leader clearly over the past couple of years clearly clearly could you ask the producers to check in with the governor's office and and find out the status of all this I'd like to know maybe we talked to the attorney General, Ken Paxton, why aren't you declaring this? Why is Texas not leading the way in stopping this invasion? The Glenn Back Program. American financing NMLS-182334, www. www. nmLS consumer access.org.

This is my sister. You know how my sister, Michelle, makes a gingerbread house every year for, she makes it with her sons, and they've entered them for, I don't know, 20, 25 years. And every year she makes a different one. And they're each one more incredible than the last.

This is the latest first place winner this year. Can you see it? It's loading now, yeah. It's just taking a little bit, so I've not seen it yet. It is, I mean, the theme was, I guess, in Canto, the Disney film. So she made the house and all the Boganvilia, and I mean, and it lights up inside. I mean that's a gingerbread house that's a gingerbread house what made entirely out of gingerbread and icing oh my gosh isn't that incredible the the tiles are all handmade just piped out icing

I mean it's just I come from a overachieving family I always think that's so weird with you in that like you have people in your family that are talented I know it's weird it's Yeah, I don't understand it. And then there's me. And then there's you. Yeah. Well, that's what the family used to say. Uh, Glenn was adopted.

So maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Just nuts. That's genuinely. I mean, like, it does not even look. You have to go see this. Instagram.com slash Glenn Beck, by the way, it was just posted.

It does not look like it could possibly be a gingerbread house. And like I, the other thing, too, is like some of the, some of the cakes that people make that look like other things are really, really impressive. But they had that sort of like outside, almost like clay. like frosting, was it called? Yeah, yeah. No, yeah. Fondon. I don't know what it is. Yeah, fondon.

Fondon. Yeah, whatever it is. One of those things. And like, it's really incredible artistry, but also it's like almost like not really, it's almost like a different thing than making a cake, right? It's like an outside coating that is like, it's like crafted into it. I mean, it's really, really cool and impressive. This though looks, I mean.

No, this is royal icing. It's insane. made old school my dad used to when i you know i grew up in a bakery um and my dad made this would make a gingerbread village and we would put it in the front uh window of our of our bakery every year i mean i really miss the days of you know uh the hometown christmas your your your own hometown walking down the the street of your hometown and it had interesting things and it was all local for the most part might have a pennies or a sears that's what ours had you know pennies and sears were at the end of the street but pretty much everything else was you know local and i loved it i love it i still do

yeah there's there's some a bunch of those sort of hometown festivals that they do around around our area here in texas and even though you might say well isn't it going to be 78 degrees in Texas today, and the answer to that is yes, and I'm proud of that as well. But it might not feel exactly like Christmas all the time. But like they have all these little festivals, and each one is just great. Like they have the little, each one has a little bit of a different character, and like, they do all these different cool events and the kids love it. And we wind up going to so many of these things.

By the end, we're actually exhausted. Like, we get to Christmas exhaustion level by the end of December, and we're ready for 11 months off. But it is really cool. I think it's something that like, I don't know if it's, still happens enough around the country. You got to have those little events are just like, it's the thing that you always remember as a kid. It is.

It is. I flew in last night. I had to be in Florida yesterday. And so I flew in late last night. I got in here, I think at 1 o'clock in the morning. And then got up at 4 to be able to come in to, you know, get ready for the today show. And the city last night, it was snowing, and this city does Christmas, unlike any other city. I mean, everything is lit.

All of the trees are lit. I mean, it is just magic and snowing. There's just, I don't know, every place should snow. My kids only associate snow with trips. We will go someplace. and it will snow and around holiday. I was talking to somebody else from Texas this morning, and he said, every time I talk to my kids, if there's snow in the background,

he said, they always say, Dad, are you having Christmas without us? It's just so burned into kids' house, or heads in the south, that it's got to be snowy, which is so bizarre that half of the world has, has had our vision of Santa and snow and everything else when, how, most of the world's not like that. Especially with global warming, Glenn.

Did you know at any moment all snow might disappear or reappear in larger quantity than ever before? Right. Right. One of those two things could happen at any time or not happen at either time. Or happen at the same time. Right. Or at the same time. All possibilities are on the table.

know the cause of whatever possibility is at the end of that road is global world. That's that's all you have to remember. Oh gosh, we are so stupid. We did that we're aware no plug your ears god. We we are I mean we really deserve to be destroyed. Really I mean we are so stupid. All right you can unplug your no we weren't talking about you. Well that's a problem. I know we should have been but we weren't.

Anyway, there is another story that is out today that I found mildly interesting just because it's almost Christmas. And have you done your Christmas shopping yet? Not one bit, Glenn. In fact, I just the other day said to my wife, I'm like, we should talk about like what's going on for Christmas. Like maybe with the kids' presents and stuff. That's like where I am. I haven't even thought about really what direction to go in. So my wife and I went out to dinner with some friends and then we just kind of walked around this little Christmas village at 80 degrees.

And we stopped in a store and I said, she was like, oh, this is so cute and this is so cute. And I said, yeah, go over there for a second. And I bought some stuff and some stuff that she didn't, she hadn't pointed out. But I at least bought her stocking stuff. I'm like, you're going to be surprised when you get your stocking this year. And that's a big deal because usually she buys the stuff for her stockings. Because, well, at least until my girls were old enough to do that for me. Because I never think of, do you ever think of the stocking?

Yeah, no, not usually. Yeah. Not typically. Obviously, Santa gets that in our house a lot of the times. But for others, I can understand why they might need to think about that. Yeah, well, Santa doesn't do the adults. Right, exactly. Santa's like buzz off kid.

Yeah. You know how many kids are having kids? Little Timmy. He's now big Timmy. And he and little Sarah have just had 14 children in India. By the way, Glenn, I want to get your opinion on this. My wife the other day asked me, she said, you know, I was thinking, I was talking to someone and they had this idea and I thought it was pretty cool, which was basically like we just

send each other an email that has a bunch of links to stuff that we want for Christmas. And then the other person just goes out and buys that stuff. And I was like, I am so, can I tell you something? I'm so done. I'm so done with a president. It's just like, what do you want? Right. I think I'm, like, I wasn't sure how to take that.

I think I'm, I think I'm, I think I'm, I think I'm, I think, she's like, I don't know, she's like, I don't know what to get you. She's like, what's some, just send me a few things that, like, are kind of on your list that you, you want as a present, but wouldn't probably go out and buy. And just send me those things. And then you do, I'll do the same to you. and then we'll just go buy those things and then they'll be under the tree.

And I was like, you know, that's a pretty, it's not romanticized, but it's a pretty efficient process. My kids, my kids tell me all the time, dad, you don't get mom stuff that you want to get her.

You get stuff that you think she wants. And I'm like, I've been trying that. That's hard. It's hard. I don't think she's never, I don't think I've ever given her a present that she's been like,

oh my gosh, that's great. and I don't need to worry about the receipt. I don't think that's ever happened. No mail has ever accomplished that feat. So you're in good company there. And she is, she'll, she will, I mean, she's given me many great presents. But sometimes she'll give me presence and I'm like, in the neighborhood, in the neighborhood.

You know, like ties, don't give people ties. They're very personal and nobody wears them anymore, kids. But anyway, you know, it's this, it's, I just would. rather just say, not for the kids, but for, you know, for the spouse, just what do you want? Just tell me what you want. There was a time where this was like a really, it's a really fun part of it, especially early in a relationship where you're like trying to really find the perfect gift for your significant other.

It's like a big deal. And over time, like I just realized I just get links sent to me. So, okay, so here's the thing. I think it's going to be that way again. I think I'm coming up to the end of four. children. Okay? So I'm a, I'm just a couple of years out. Wait, the end of them? What's happening to them? Oh, get the hell out. You don't even call. Okay. Okay. That's the best outcome I was thinking up there. Just get out. Get out. Anyway, so I'm about to have all four children now. And

Tanya and I are already starting to be like this where we're like, yeah, I don't know if there's any food in the house. I guess you'll have to fend for yourself. Mom and dad are leaving. And I think it will become fun again. Right now, when you have kids, you're just like, really, honey, I mean, my hair is on fire all the time. Your hair is on fire all the time. Just tell me what you want. That's all right. It's not romantic, but it's not romantic, but it does, it lends itself to describe relationships.

Like at the beginning, you have that. No, I think it just described. the teenage years. Really? Because you're just so distracted. So you think you'll be back to trying to find that perfect present and she can kind of nod somewhat knowingly and appreciative, but... And then look for the receipt.

Yeah. Will they just take the American Express? Will they take the American Express? Is there a digital receipt to this? You didn't buy this with all cash, did you? There is record someplace. All right. back in just a second.

All right, you sick, twisted freak. Let me tell you about I sponsor this half hour. It's American. No, is it American financing? No, it's gold line. Oof. Gold line. May I just remind you,

trouble. Trouble is coming. Did you listen to Carol Roth last hour? By the way, she just put out an amazing report on Central Bank Digital Currency. She talked about that last hour. If you missed it, grab the podcast today. She talked about that and, you know, also what's coming for farming and a few other things that you should probably pay attention to.

But she's got a whole thing that she just put out available only at Gold Line. Part of the report highlights physical gold being an important hedge. Please, if you get anything from me ever on gold or silver, please do not buy paper gold. There is not enough gold to go around for all of the paper that we have called currency. The same thing with an ETF. A paper promise of gold is as worthless as the dollar will be. Please make sure you have physical, physical gold. I want to make sure that you understand what is coming and they can help inform you.

One of the Canadian provinces has just come out with their new COVID restrictions. Can you believe people are still doing this? Maximum of 20 people for informal indoor household gatherings. Maximum of 50 people for an informal outdoor gatherings. Yeah, in Canada, I'm going to be having an outdoor. Unvaccinated residents. should avoid informal indoor gatherings. Masks are required in all outdoor public spaces.

Malls, grocery stores, salons must enforce physical distancing or instead require proof of vaccination from all patrons. That doesn't even make sense. You can still get it. You can have the vaccination. You can still give it or pass it on. How widespread us in Canada? Is it all of Canada?

No, this is the New Brunswick province. province yeah and you're if you're unvaccinated you need to isolate yada yada yada all travelers including new brunswickers that's stupid you have to change your name of your province if you if it ends up that you're a new brunswicker we'll let them know glen returning to the province must register or have a multi-use pass oh my gosh so stupid i mean why is this still happening why is this still happening now canada are me not Canada. China is different because they've never let anybody get immunity, right? Well, I mean, you know, it depends on how much you believe what they've told people and what

they believe their numbers, which you shouldn't. But they certainly have a very large amount of people who have either never had COVID or and or have, if they've been vaccinated, have been vaccinated by the really crappy Chinese vaccines. So like, who knows what's going to happen if it runs wild over there. There could be some real damage, though they're going to have to reverse their COVID-Zero policy or they're going to overthrow and throw the government maybe. So who knows what's going to happen? I don't know about the rest of the audience, but all I heard from that,

racist rant was crappy Chinese. What a racist. Crappy Chinese therapy. Really racist? The Glenn Back Program. Made in Japan bother you too?
