Look, Air Canada does a sold Worldial? Super, an offer for the assort, station thermal,

volcano. You've seen the price for the Japan? M, it's a lot of a lot of talking about.

It's a lot of... DECONnasuris and food is a Newry Limited. Reserved to R.Canada.com or to your agent of voyage. The conditions

I want to talk to you about pre-born. These are the people that step in to fill that gap. When women are being told their babies are just clumps of cells, the first thing they do is they have to blow that myth away. They provide a free ultrasound in postnatal care. Once they've introduced the mom to her unborn child, she is twice as likely to choose life for that child. They're doing the work that we all should be doing, the work of God.

Please be a part of the ministry that stands in the gap for life. When you support pre-born, you're not only supporting women, you empower them. And your donation of $28 will help a woman make a choice that she won't have to regret the rest of her life. It gives her the ultimate blessing. Life. Your love can save a life. Just dial pound 250. Say the keyword baby.

That's pound 250. Keyword baby. Or go to preborn. dot com slash glen that's preborn.com slash glen. All right. You sick freak. It's Friday. The Glennback program.

Hello America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. It is Friday. And there's some serious stuff going on and we're going to avoid most of that because it's Friday and it's been a hard week. So I'm going to start the show giving you some fortification, give you some vitamins and minerals and some meat, things you that you can take through the weekend

to ponder on, and then we're going to screw off. Now Hezbollah is having a big meeting today. It's happening in about 25 minutes. I don't speak Hezboenese, so I can't, we're going to have to wait for the translation,

but Jason Buttrill is with us, and you're watching it, Jason, right? Yeah, watching it right now. Yeah. Is it exciting? Oh, yeah. I mean, the Hezbo and E's that I have in my head is pretty extensive. Yeah, and I'm ex-I don't know what they're going to announce. They said it's a major announcement. I don't know what the announcement's going to be, but I'm hoping it's that they're changing their stance on gay marriage.

I think you got it. You nailed it exactly. Yeah. Any idea what this is? And does this go along with the Russian Wagner group now saying that they are going to support and give air support to Hezbollah? Yeah, that's a big escalation for sure. But they're either going to announce they're doing nothing or they're going to announce their start in the war.

So I kind of think that the latter is not what's going to happen. Do you really? I mean, do you make an announcement? You know what? We're going to start a war. Don't you just usually go in? It's a good point. It really is.

I mean, he could just be saying, you know, fluff stuff and threats. That could be what he's doing. But I don't know. It's not looking good. There are bags packed at the Beirut airport just in case he says they're going to war. That's how serious they're taking it. Okay. Thank you so much.

I appreciate it. We'll check in after we get the Hezboleinez translator to help us out. It is Friday. Before we start, let me tell you about relief factor. You know the old line from the commercials, there's got to be a better way. Yeah. That was almost always used to sell a product that you didn't need for a problem you didn't have. There's got to be a better way.

better way. Ah, the good old days. But what about a product that you could use for a problem you do have? In this case, pain. And if you're like me, you've lived with pain, you feel like you've tried everything, you might indeed say to yourself, there's got to be a better way. Well, there is. Relief Factor, a daily supplement that helps your body fight the pain. It's a 100% drug-free, developed by doctors' formula to reduce or eliminate pain. And over a million people have tried Relief Factor's Quick Start kit, 70% of them have gone on to order more, and I am one of them. See how Relief Factor can help you. Get their three-week quick start now, 1995.

It comes with ReliefFactor's new Feel Better or Money Back Guarantee. So give it a try. Relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief, 800 the number four relief. Feel the difference. You'll know it works. Relieffactor.com. All right. then. Okay, so let me

just give you a little bit of meat, something I really want you to chew on this weekend. Let me take you back to October 7th. New footage has been released. The video show devastated villages, the blood-stained bedrooms,

there are now pictures of Hamas, beheading people, and then posing with the heads and then playing with the heads. It's horrible. One video that has been released in Israel now is a woman standing on her burned out porch holding photographs of weeping for the dead and missing family. She's weeping for her children whose stuffed animals had failed to protect them. In the background of the shot, there's a charred metal plaque.

It's still readable. It says, God is alive. But I want to address an age-old question, where was God? Not a new question. In fact, it's the same question that was asked by more than one in Auschwitz and Dachau. Where is God? Where was God at any one of the countless places that Jews were massacred just for bearing his name? Where was God when women and children were slaughtered on October 7th?

It's a familiar question in my not-relatable to... what's happening in Israel. Hours of woe. In the night times of our lives, we might have all said, where is God? Wherever there is deep suffering, if you've ever gone to a children's hospital, where is God? But when it comes to senseless slaughter and evil, man, doesn't it seem like he should step in? And there's no satisfying answer. For some people, this is the end of faith.

proof there is no God. If there was a God, why doesn't he? Dot, dot, dot. Others see it in the price of free will. God wants us to choose. That implies free choice, free will and struggle. It implies the possibility of a right choice and also a possibility of a monstrously wrong choice.

The necessary possibility of evil, itself, without which there's no possibility of good. L.A. Wiesel said, God was in fact right there himself, weeping, suffering, and dying side by side with the Jews of Auschwitz. And so on October 7th, God was there. God wept over them, gathered every single one of his dead children up and took them home. The amazing thing is, God love them all, loves them all. And if God is God, then I know that that means even those who've gone so far that I have a very hard time finding it in me to love them. But I'm not God.

There's another answer. And that is, where is God? How about this terrifying thought? That he is protecting us. that what we're left with after he spared us the worst, there were enough Jews left after the Holocaust to rebuild Israel. The world has not gone up in a nuclear explosion, at least not yet. What time is it?

And while maybe the plan was for October 7th to turn into an overwhelming wave on all fronts, drawing in Hezbollah, Judea, Samaria, Syria, Iran, overwhelming, an unethroval, prepared Israel from the river to the sea. That didn't happen. Israel only got Hamas. And there were small and not so small miracles as well. These are the things we don't hear about, that we need to. People drove unarmed to the slaughter to get people out and came out unharmed themselves. One family was taken from their home. But the vehicles they had couldn't hold everyone. So some were left in charge with a single terrorist who somehow or another just seemingly lost interest and wandered off, leaving all of the hostages to escape.

There are so many stories coming out of miracles terrorists, somehow failing to break through regular glass doors and then just moving on. single soldiers holding their homes against numerous terrorists saving their families. And these are bright spots, but too many didn't get such miracles. And their blood screams out of the ground. Where is God? I think war really is hell, even for the believer. And prayers are no promise of personal safety. They're not.

He doesn't mean peace on earth the way we always interpret. it. I think most people of genuine faith live with this terrible knowledge. God doesn't work this way. There are miracles. There are miracles. But prayers, it's not a promise of personal safety. It doesn't work. They do work, but it doesn't work that way. It reigns on the good and the evil. And that's not the point of faith. Faith is a shield, but not a literal one. Faith, faith is a shield. Faith is a literal one. Faith is a suit of armor, but not the kind that stops a bullet. People who don't understand God think that we believe in magic. We don't. It's not magic. In magic, the power comes from me, right? Have you ever wondered what you would have done in the Civil War? Would you have

recognized the monsters and stood against them? In World War II, have you ever wondered, what would I have done? Would I have spoken out against Hitler and the brown shirts? Would I have openly worked toward the end of hatred? Would you have gone to the window to face the same fate when your Jewish neighbors were being taken from their home? Or would you say, stay away from the windows? Don't ask any questions.

If you've ever asked yourself, what would I have done? I want you to ponder this weekend. Your actions today are giving you the answer. Whatever you would have done, you're doing now. See, this is how it begins. This is how it began. It starts like this. And people make their choices early.

That's how miracles work, honestly. First, it has to be your choice. you don't wait for God to show up. He's waiting for you to show up. What faith in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is, is the notion that the power doesn't reside in me like a magic trick. The power is not in me. I'm not God. God is God.

But his power, when I align myself with him, flows through me. So when you get it flowing through you, what are you going to do with it? Because it will only flow through you in the service of love and your fellow man. I don't know the mind of God. I don't know the plan. I think I kind of know that. I mean, I know the ending, but I do believe there is a plan. This is not all meaningless chaos.

It's not. faith in this God means not only that I believe he exists, but that I assume that God is good. And therefore, although I can't see the whole tapestry, I know, as in Genesis, God sees it and sees that it is good. My job is just to stand with him. Here's the other thing I want you to ponder. Faith doesn't grant superpowers, but it can make us superheroes. In the right situation, faith lets us find within ourselves more power, more strength, more good than we ever thought was possible inside of us. There is somebody, there's a spiritual giant in each of us, and it's in there.

Your faith will bring it out. This week Israel rescued a hostage from Gaza, a video a few days before, showed this mother in prayer, suddenly breaking out in tears and shouting, God, I love you. God, I love you. I saw this video and I thought, God, I love you? Excuse me? At this point, her daughter is in Hamas captivity. Her daughter, you know what that means. Assuming she's alive at all. God. I love you. What faith. Her daughter was returned. Lieutenant Padae Mark, I think his name is. He fell fighting in Hamas in Gaza this week. Seven years before he had seen his father gunned down by terrorists.

In the interval, he had also lost a brother. Another family member fell trying to rescue victims of the Hamas massacre on October 8th. Family carries on, keep believing that God is good, and that no one died in vain. Some Christians risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust because of their faith. Desmond Doss, if you don't, if you don't know the name you should. He's the pacifist medic who served at Hacksaw Ridge in World War II, prayed over and over and over. God help me save just one more amidst the carnage. God just let me just help me save one more. He kept saying that as he would go back. He saved 75.

George Washington prayed on his knees in the snow at Valley Forge and carried history. We may all pay a price for standing. We may all pay a price just for living, but we're not going to pay a price for nothing. it's inside of you, have faith that it is there, and ask God to show it to you. You've been born for a reason. That's faith. That's what faith does. The rest is up to God.

Back in a minute. When you have to pull your gun in a serious situation, life and death, you stand in the gap between those that you love and those that would harm them. In other words, you are the first responder in emergency situation, and that was the American understanding of first responder up until the Carter administration. Then we were told to wait for the first responders. No, we are the ones. It means you have a duty if you own a firearm to be proficient in their use. It means practicing both at the range and off it.

And this is one reason why I have Mantis X. It's a high-tech quality, easy-to-use system that is widely used by the military. I think it started with the Marines. It helps you improve your shooting so fast. You attach it to your firearm. You connect with an app on your smartphone or your tablet via Bluetooth. Then whether you're firing actual rounds or dry fire practicing, it'll give you instant feedback on what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong, and most importantly, how to correct it.

right there on the screen in live, real time. 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes of using Mantis X. I'm one of them. It's like having a firearms instructor right in your front pocket. And just importantly, it's going to save you a lot of money. Start improving today. Get yours at mantisX.com. That's MantisX.com.

10 seconds, station ID. I had a fascinating conversation with Ron Paul yesterday. day. He is on our podcast. If you are a Blaze TV subscriber, you have access to it now. Tomorrow, it will come out for everywhere on YouTube and also wherever you get your podcast. He's been a libertarian fortune teller. A lot of the stuff that he said was happening is happening now. He also made some pretty frightening, I can't call him predictions. He just felt he felt competitive. He felt, he felt, to say things are going to get unimaginably worse. He said you're going to see a lot more people living on the streets.

He told me that we are living in a fascistic society now. The elites are drunk on power and are using war as a profitable gain. We talked about the Ukraine-Russia war. Gosh, we talked about everything. The CBDC, the Central Bank digital currency, why that's such a problem. He's also, I think he's changed some. He's mellowed some.

He is, I guess, got a feeling of his faith, which I've never felt before. We didn't necessarily talk about it. It was just a feeling that I had, that he has real hope and real faith, or his hope comes from his faith. He gives us some answers on how to get out, reclaiming education. It is a fascinating conversation with Ron Paul, the elder Paul. You can watch the podcast now at blazTV.com slash Glenn, and it will be available tomorrow on my YouTube channel or wherever you get your podcasts. That's tomorrow and today for Blaze TV subscribers, Ron Paul.

Yesterday, Russia's Wagner Group said they were going to supply Hezbollah with Air defense. So that's good. We got that going for us. Now, Hezbollah is making a major announcement. Even as we speak, I don't speak head below the knees. So I don't know what they're saying, but we'll get the translation here in about a half an hour.

But they're making a major announcement in the Middle East. I think they're going to reverse themselves on gay marriage. Not on homosexuality. They'll still behead you for that. But on gay marriage, they're going to be fine. Oh, nice. So that way they can behead both of the participants in the gay marriage. No.

If you want to get married but you're not gay, but you want to be gay married, you can do that. But no gay people can exist. In fact, they don't exist. If they do exist, they'll have to behead them. The only ones that exist are queers for Palestine. Yeah. That's it. The queers for Palestine.

They'll be all right. They'll be. Well, they exist. They exist. I wouldn't say they'd be all right. They should not visit anytime soon. So we don't know what they're going to announce, but we'll, We'll get to that here in a second.

Let me give you a couple of other things. Pat Gray joins us from Pat Gray Unleashed. And Pat, I would like you to play color to our sports commentary here. And I know where, you know sports. And so you could do this. This is a supermarket where some shoplifter is trying to get out of the store. And the security guard is trying to stop him. and something happens towards the end.

Here we go. All right, we've got a security guard now playing defense as a shoplifter attempts to leave the store, utilizing a shopping cart as sort of a barrier here, as it's an interesting maneuver shuffling back and forth. And oh my, out of nowhere, what was it? That appeared to be another shopper who fired a two-liter bottle of coke

at the head of the shoplifter, and down he goes. Boom. I mean, that is a good shot. Seriously. Seriously, that kid could be a quarterback. Do you know how many backup quarterbacks are playing in the NFL this week? I mean, sign this person up, whoever it is.

I mean, I think that's fantastic. Now, I thought it would be better if we ran this video with a little music behind it because it reminded me of something and I thought, you know what? I would like to do this. So here it is. I like to teach the world to sing with me. It is the real thing. And I think we should all maybe consider carrying around a two-liter jug of coke.

I love how he throws it, knocks the guy completely out, and then just calmly walks off. Yeah, just goes back to the shopping. Yeah. Back to what he was doing. Tell me, though, this story does not end. with the shopper who threw the Coke bottle in-charged. It depends. It depends.

Where did this happen? I don't know. Depends on what state. If it's in Texas, a guy will get a parade with the Rangers. Depends what city he's in. Yes, yes, yes. That's true.

That's true. All right. One other thing that I've got, and I'd love to hear anything you have, I just, we have an article at glenbeck.com. uh, Sabo's been busy lately. Sabo is the street artist in Los Angeles who is, um, well, he's, he's, he's, he's conservative. Uh, and, uh, well, in some ways. Uh, he's, he's,

he's anti-fascist. Let's put it that way. Uh, and, uh, so here are the latest, um, from him, um, from him, the street designs that he has, he's taken one. It's a stop sign that he has, that he has now put Joe Biden sniffing the hair of a girl with the word stop I actually think that is that's appropriate and should be here's one

this is a highway sign you know the interstate highway sign the red white and blue one it says the red Newsom failed and then Exodus East with a little U-Haul sticker on it. Then we have this one.

World War III Full metal jack, something that's blurred out I don't know. But it has Joe Biden's stupid face

with a hesbo he's wearing a helmet with a Hezbollah banner around it or scarf and a Ukraine flag on it and then the people parachuting in BLM love

loves Hamas. Now, if you happen to be really offended by the Hamas thing, do we have the Hamas one first? Yeah, there. He hung these from the signs or from the stop signs or stoplights all across Los Angeles. They are BLM loves Hamas paratroopers or the guys, you know, that are paragliders. Yeah. Coming in. Those, he said, were the first to be taken down at sunlight. my gosh BLM loves Hamas it's amazing hard to deny

they seem to be overtly loving them yeah they're making no bones about it yeah and then of course this is the first time it's been seen on the street one that he made for us we have we have t-shirts and sweatshirts for this it is the Trump the Trump

what do you call it a booking photo with a little help from from Sabo just says corn pop one bad dude 24 you can find these at glenbeck.com and you can find the cornpop stuff also at glenbeck.com find it and and wear it proudly uh so pat what was the thing that you felt this week needed to be discussed and it's not going to bring us down on a Friday that's not going to bring us down yes there was no there was no topic

that won't bring you down. So what are your thoughts on the week? I am flabbergasted at the administration and how they're trying to play both sides. Oh, yeah. I can't. It's really hard to take. Don't you feel like it's a setup?

They're only playing both sides as long as they have to. Yeah. They will go over to the Hamas, Palestinian side. Yeah. And the amazing. thing though is how many people have openly already jumped in

to the Palestinian side. The Hamas side, the anti-Jewish side, and they don't care. They don't hide it. They talk about their Jew hatred. It's like the 30s all over again. Remember the book that I told you guys about the diary. I don't know if either of you ever read them

the read the diary from the guy, the German in World War II. He talks about, because I've said, you will understand what's coming and where we are in the process if you read this book because he's he's basically writing a diary he gets to this point to where his friends who he thought were normal just a week ago are coming in and saying these damn Jews have all got to go and happens quickly it happens he said it happened overnight and it

happened overnight here yes a couple of weeks right you know all of a sudden people you know people that you you hear on tv and on the streets are are quoting Adolf Hitler and you're like and they're fine with it they're fine with it and why is that I mean it's been bubbling inside of them the whole time it didn't just happen you know no yeah no it's

it's safe for them now apparently to let it out it's what we warn it's why I have been talking about anti-Semitism it's why I went over have you seen the film from restoring courage the speech I gave

I watched it last night oh my gosh oh my gosh was that inspired that speech should be given today i mean it is it's remarkable because as i'm watching and i'm thinking to myself why did i write those words why because it wasn't happening at the time do you remember oh yeah i do yeah and we were like and i and i just felt like it's important to say these things. And it was written for this time. I'm going to post it this weekend. It's unbelievable.

Unbelievable. Everything that I'm saying, you know, it was crazy. I'm like, you know, you're going to be in the minority, but you have to stand up. You have to say no. If they're going to say, we're coming for the Jews, you have to stand up and say, then count me as a Jew. Wow. I talked about how the world will go insane, and all of the world, including our government, will start to stand up against the Jew.

I mean, it's amazing. And that's 12 years old. How'd you look? Shut up. Wait, I mean, what's the application here? I don't know why he snapped out. That was weird question. She looked at that young, healthy man there, you know, the lowest weight he had been since, you know, high school.

You remember? Because that week, wasn't really? Wow. Two days, two days before that, remember, I had to go to the hospital. I had passed out. Don't you remember? You weren't there? No.

You remember that? I remember it. Yeah. Yeah. They took me out in the, because I was writing the speech and I'm, David Barton walks in. And David said, hey, Glenn, how you doing? and I went, I'm really, and then I just collapsed on the floor and I was out for a while. I wake up and everybody is around me, security and everybody's around me,

and they're strapping me to a, you know, a, what do you call it? A gurney. And they're picking me up and they're going to take me out. And I'm hearing them on the phone with the prime minister's office. And they're saying, he can't go to a regular hospital. He can't, we can't have this come out. out, it will be really bad for the event, blah, blah, blah. They took me through the back stairs of this hospital because I couldn't use the elevator.

So had to go down the back stairs. I get into this ambulance and they take me to this hospital to a underground bunker hospital that is used for the prime minister. If there's anybody in the military or anybody in the government that is hurt, or, you know, there's any kind of problems going on with, you know, terrorism. They use that. And I go in and I just see the ceiling of this place and it's completely dark. And I'm like, what? Where are you guys taking me?

And they turn on the lights and then all of a sudden from the hospital a whole bunch of people come down. Wow. And I mean, so it was weird. Today they would have had to get you out of there with a crane. But fortunately, that wasn't the case back then. why do I invite him? Why do I invite him on? Wouldn't it be nice?

And you brought me cookies yesterday. I know. You enabler. You enable her. I've got to tell you, Kexie cookies, if you have not had Pat's wife's cookies, they're unbelievable.

She's absolutely a witch. I told my wife, no, I mean that in a good way. Unlike the one that rhymes when I talk about you. I didn't make that last. Fat joke, that was Pat. Yeah, well, you will. Nabiler.

So I told Tanya, I said, we are sending only Kexi cookies to, you know, because we usually will send, you know, fruit basket or flowers or something. Yeah. You know, for the Christmas list. This is way better. Yeah. And you've got to try the Boston cream pie cookie. Oh, good.

Believe. It's the only cookie that I recommend you eat with a spoon. Yeah. Seriously. Delicious. It is so good. So good. Not that I had one, honey, while you were gone.

No. I did not have one. Mm-mm. Why would he? Anyway. That's weird. Kexie.com is a place you go to get them. Thank you.

We, of course, talk about politics all the time, but how are you spending your money?

Are you supporting companies that are supporting you? We talk so often about these companies that do the wrong thing, right? these companies that make moves that trash the country or whatever it is, you need to find companies that will actually support the country. Companies that will make their stuff here, for example. That's a nice way of doing it. American Giant is a company who does that. When you buy clothing from American Giant, you are getting a true American product,

the quality you'd expect from an American product, a product made with merit by people in this country for a fair wage. Every stitch of thread, every metal rivet, every drop of ink is made and assembled right here in America. So you're not just buying the clothing, you're investing in the process that helps the country. And, you know, we need to get back to that. We need to get back to that whole process. The cotton, the milling, the cutting, the sewing is 100% American with American Giant. You can find stuff that's cheaper.

The CEO of Target was on CNBC.

By the way, I am, I live in fear every time I pass one of those stores with that Target sign. It says Target, it's got a bullseye. I feel unsafe. I don't know about you. They're targeting you. But Brian Cornell was on CNN yesterday. And he actually said that the boycott in May posed more danger to their company and to their employees than George Floyd riots. The conservatives that were upset over the trans merchandise were more dangerous than the riots of George Floyd.

How many stores did they burn down? Because I missed that. How many conservatives went to stores and burned them to the ground? Or looted them completely empty of all goods. Gosh, I missed almost all of that. Yeah. You know, well, that's white privilege right there. So, and then you also have Salon Magazine advancing the claim that MAGA,

and Christian nationalism is a greater threat than Hamas could ever be. Ah, remember the days on October 7th and 8th and 9th when we were all together. It didn't take them long, but they're turning this whole thing around, and you once again will be named more dangerous. Let's show them that we are not. Let's show the world who we are.

nasty fighting arm in Russia, the Wagner Group has decided that they were going to provide air cover for Hezbollah. Hezbollah has been waiting for Iran to weigh in, the chief of Hezbollah, was supposed to have a press conference about half an hour ago. I, of course, don't speak, has ball of knees. And so I have no idea. We're waiting for the translation to be completed to know exactly what he's saying. There could be another front on Israel opening today. That would be very, very bad news.

But I want to give you some good news. I want to talk to you about some people that are doing great, miraculous things, and we now have to double our effort on it. I'll start there in 60 second. Well, you know what? Not even 60 second. I'm paying for this commercial because it's for my company, real estate agents.

I trust.com. So let me flush a bunch of money down in the toilet, but save you time. If you're selling your house, we've got great real estate agents. Go to real estate agents. I trust.com. There, done.

All right. Justin. Justin Haskins is with us now. He is the co-author. of The Great Reset and Dark Future, both of my New York Times bestselling books, and also Research Center director for the Heartland Institute Socialism Research Center. How are you? Good morning, Glenn.

How are you? I'm doing great. I'm in Stu's chair. We threw Stu out of the studio. Yeah. He's terrible. Yeah. I'm in the chair.

And I've got to tell you, this feels good. This feels right. Don't get too comfy. You have also brought with you Bob Rommel. Bob is the Florida State Representative who has. has been fighting against ESG in Florida. And Florida has the model. Yes.

Do you think? Oh, yes. Yes. As you know, back when we put the Great Reset book together and we realized that ESG was the key to the entire Great Reset puzzle. Yeah. And you and I thought, this is pretty depressing because no one's going to do anything about it. We were convinced no one was going to do anything about it.

Then the book came out and states across the country started enacting various. ways of fighting back against ESG. But in many of those cases, we've had 14 different states that have put some kind of anti-ESG legislation together. Most of them are focused on making sure that government pensions and government contracts are not being used to promote ESG causes. That's really good. Okay?

That's really great. It's a start. It's a start. But if you really want to protect people, you have to protect consumers. You have to protect the individual. and the only place where they have actually enacted a law that does this that protects financial individuals from financial institutions promoting ESG is in the state of Florida. And Bob Rommel, who's here with us today in the studio, is the champion of that cause.

He's the guy who led the charge in the house. And he is a personal hero. He really is. He's a personal hero. So thank you for being here, Bob. Bob, thank you for standing up for this. I don't know why more states won't protect the consumer. They'll protect all the big guys.

But it's the consumer. It's the little person when they go to try to get a loan, you know, the farmer that tries to go get a loan. And he's rejected because he's not doing everything he's supposed to do ESG-wise. And that consumer will never be told it was because of ESG. So they can't sue them. They can't do anything about it. Well, Glenn, thank you. And Justin, thanks for those kind words.

I don't know if anybody's ever called me a champion. in, but thank you. As an ex-banker, I know that if you control the capital, you make all the rules and you do everything. And I started looking at ESG, some of the ESG rules that some people were telling about two years ago. And then the incoming speaker, I told him about, we have to do something about this in Florida. We need to protect our citizens. To me, it's just another form of discrimination. And as an ex-banker, when we did mortgages for folks, you know, We couldn't discriminate based on race, color, creed, political belief. They got mortgages based on their ability to pay and their income, period.

That's the way it should be. That's the way it should be. And that's how our country was built. And you always, when the government messes with our banks and tells them that you have to consider other things, it creates a system that is false. and it creates the bubble that we had in 08. That was the United States government telling banks, you have to make more loans in these ways, which the people couldn't afford,

but the government was demanding the banks do it. And luckily that we had in Florida, we had a speaker and we had a governor that wanted to do something because the pushback was huge. And it was pushed back on multiple sides. So Democrats, and I believe as a Democrat, that came up with ESG. They're great at coming up with these new words

and these new terminology. So the first thing is environment. You know, environment. So listen, everybody wants clean water, clean air. So they said, well, we have to do this to save the environment because if not, we're all going to die. And I don't know if anybody's listening,

but we're all going to die eventually anyway. Yeah, we're all dying. Just slower. Just slow. So then the social governance. And what is social governance? And if you, you know, you can look at a couple of the greatest American iconic companies in a world that social governance has destroyed their, you know, value of their companies. Disney.

Disney and Anheiser Bush. Yeah. I would think both of them. Coca-Cola is really bad too. Oh, yeah. And so me as a business person, whenever I hired somebody, I hired the best, the brightest, and the people that actually show up to work. Yes. And I never looked at their race or, you know, or their political beliefs.

I just wanted to hire the best. And that's how our country was built. Our country was built on access to capital and people like Thomas Edison. I know you have a issue with Thomas Edison. Thank you for knowing now. I know you do. And, you know, we can debate whether that was the best technology or not. But we need to make sure that the next inventors have access to capital.

so whatever the next great invention that's going to help civilization is available. And when I saw what was happening, a friend of mine has a multinational company. And he saw me a worksheet that he would have to fill out to get capital. And it had nothing to do with his business or the ability to pay. It was based on how many transgender people do you have working here? How much carbon footprint do you have? What are you using to mitigate your carbon footprint? And I said, there's something wrong here.

And you know what? In the end, it's going to hurt civilization. and in Florida, we wanted to make sure we did something to protect our citizens. Okay, so now does this actually, if I'm a citizen and I go to a bank and I feel they've judged me on ESG, does this cover me as a citizen of Florida? Yeah, so there's no doubt that the law, and they're going to challenge it. We highly suspect banks are going to fight this because they want to be able to discriminate against people. That's what banks want the ability to do and they're being pushed by the left and big asset managers.

But yes, that's what the law is designed to do. The law is designed to make sure that if you are being discriminated against, that you have an ability to file a complaint with the government so that the government makes sure that that doesn't happen. Now, one of the problems that we have, and Rep Rommel is trying to address this going forward, is how do we even know that that's what's going on? How do we know the bank? Because the bank might not tell you. The bank might just deny you the loan and never tell you why. And so we need to figure out a way to make. make sure that people know why they're being denied access to bank accounts and things like that.

So do you want to talk a little bit about that plan that you have? Sure. We know what we did. We knew was going to get challenged. And we had tremendous amount pushback and pushback from people I didn't even understand why they were pushing back. Matter of fact, one of the second in charge of BlackRock came to visit me, the commerce chair in Florida, which was kind of cool. But he read my background. He goes, dies, seems like you're more of a libertarian, your free market guy. Why are you interfering with business? And I said, it sounds like you're interfering. And we actually had a great conversation. And he was talking about this is just free market business. And I said, well, let's talk about

ESG. And I said, did you fly down here to visit me on a private plane? And he said, yeah, matter of fact, I go, did you pick the most diverse pilot or to pick the best pilot? He goes, that doesn't matter. And I go, no, it does matter. I go, if you're trying, if you're truly believe in this stuff. You'll make the most diverse pilot. God forbid you're ever going to get sick. You're going to get the most diverse surgeon. But it's not.

This is about you controlling the markets, controlling capital, controlling people, making people have fewer decisions and maybe buying some bad technology. And, you know, they kept pushing and pushing. The banks came back to me and said, oh, you're interfering with us. But you know what?

It's the worst. It is so bad. This banking, it's a cartel that they have going again. against our representatives and our legislatures in America. This cartel comes in so heavy-handed with loads of money and credibility and tries to stop people like you. You know, and we had to be careful the way you crafted the bill because if you use ESG as a form of scoring, you won't be able to issue Florida bonds, you won't be able to access

to qualified public deposits or pension funds. But we also had to make sure that if everybody did, it, we were able to write checks in the state of Florida to pay our bills. So there was a balance there and we had to make sure that we, there was other access. And there is, there's not quite enough for $300 billion in local community banks. So I think we're in a good place there. But over the summer, one of our local businesses in Florida, Dr. McCullough, who owns a very big supermarket, but he also owns a multinational natural health vitamin company. And over the summer, I get a call from one of his

representatives, he goes, Rep. Ramel, can you help us? And I go, I'll try. What's up? And he said, well, all of the managers and multiple employees from the Mercolor markets been debanked. Their bank, which was J.P. Morgan Chase, gave them letters and say, find new

banks, we're not going to bank with you anymore. So I talked to a J.P. Morgan Hang on just a second. How rare? Because I'd never heard of being debanked before, unless you were like, Alcompone. I had never heard of that. How rare did that used to be?

I would think never because banks wanted you to keep your money and you're not interest-bearing accounts and pay late fees and things like that to earn income. So we looked into it a little bit and I talked to the rep and they said, well, Bob, you know, he could be doing money laundering or some suspicious activity and by the law were obligated to debank them. I go, his entire workforce. and they couldn't tell me because, you know, I'm not authorized to hear this information. And again, the state of Florida, if you're running arms or fentanyl, we don't want you banking either. Right. But we also believe in due process in the state of Florida. I don't trust you as the bank, and I don't trust you as some federal agency to say, this person needs to be debanked because I remember Operation Chokehold when they told payday loans and arms dealers.

I think that was, you know, Obama era 2013, Operation Choke Point, that you can't do any banking business. So I don't trust the federal government agencies, and I don't trust the banks that are colluding with ESG with our federal agencies to do, to bank them. So what I'm going to try to do this year, assuming it's passed, that if you're a bank and you debank one of our Florida citizens, a business or an individual, first of all, you're going to have to tell Florida. You're going to have to tell the Division of Financial Services.

is, hey, I debanked Dr. Mercola, and this is why I did it. Then we as a state, keep it in private, we'll investigate. If we felt that you did it in bad faith, well, we're going to fine you, and you're not going to do business in Florida. Good for you. And then the individual that was harmed, we're going to allow them to have a private right of action against that bank. Excellent.

Excellent. That is fair. That's fair. Yeah, I was right. This is amazing. This is what this is, by the way, this is, what is it? Fair access is what it is. That's the shorthand.

Shorthand is fair access. There are many states that have passed now anti-ESG laws, but it is fair access that gives the power to the individual to be able to get the information and to sue if it is, if it's wrong information or based on ESG. And you guys have led the way. Hang on just a second. Just a couple more questions. On the bank that debanked him actually is where I want to start. First of all, remember when owning your home was this wonderful crazy dream that kept you up a night with excitement. You're having your first home.

It felt like you were, you know, insanely rich and you were on your way. Well, let me tell you, the hassle now is really, really tough. And when you are sitting here and you are dealing with all the things that you're dealing with in life, it's tough. It is tough. And I want you to know that you're not alone. There are ways that you can put your things together in your life that will make a real, real difference. For instance, may I suggest CarShield. CarShield is a way for you to save a butload of money because your warranty runs out and you don't know what to do.

you're going to get parts now that are probably made in China wildly expensive. CarShield has now, I believe it's over 5,000 parts that they cover on your car. If you don't have a warranty, you can get this from CarShield. 5,000 parts are going to be replaced, no questions asked. They also have a price lock guarantee, so your price will never go up, no matter how many claims you file. It'll never go up, even as your mileage on your car increases, you can. you can save money because they have a price lock even with inflation. 800,

$200, $2.27, $600,000, $800,000, $2.27.000. It's carsheel.com slash back. 10 seconds, station ID. All right. So, let me ask you, what was the name of the bank that debanked this guy? It was J.P. Morgan Chase. J.P. Morgan Chase. That's a big bank.

It is a big bank. And I believe J.P. Morgan Chase has is one of the organizations that flagged the treasury on money laundering for Hunter Biden. Really? I think that is true. I think you're right. I'd have to check, but I think it is. You should ask them, did you debank Hunter Biden when you suspected money laundering? You know what? I bet they didn't do that because, you know. It's a good bet. Unless they did, and that's why Hunter can't pay his child support. Yeah, maybe, maybe.

Okay, so what do people need to do to make sure that next year we sew this up? The biggest thing is that state lawmakers, their representatives all across the country, they need to understand that the, that ESG is a huge problem. It's maybe the biggest problem facing the average citizen in America right now. The problem is going to get bigger because in Europe, they're about to make. ESG mandatory and they're going to drag a whole bunch of American companies into the mix and they're going to be beholden to Europe's ESG system. Right.

They will have to live ESG here if they want to do business. Yes. And the only thing worse than ESG is ESG created by Europeans. That's the only thing that could make it worse, right? And so what we need to do is make sure that there are protections for individuals. It can't just be for big businesses. It can't just be for industry. It can't just be on environment issues or fossil fuels.

Those things matter. But we need to have protections for the individual person. And if your state is not doing that, then they are not looking out for you. They are not protecting you. And you are going to be a victim of this eventually because there is just way too much money and planning and power behind it as we've shown in the last two books that we did on this topic. You guys are at you're over at the legislative conference, aren't you? Yes, yeah.

Yeah. Are you there in? in town for that? Yes, and we're actually presenting together very briefly a little bit late. So I'm glad that you're now learning that this is happening. I'm so glad. I've got to catch a plane today, and I'm like, I don't know what I'm going to talk about today. Here's what I'm going to say, Justin.

Oh, okay, good. What should people do? Anyway, the pro-family legislative conference is happening. There are about 200 pro-family lawmakers that are in town. and all weekend long I'd ask for you to pray for them. These people like Bob are really, I mean, they are on the edge

and standing up for the really hard things. They take bullets in the back, in the side, in the front, all of the time. They are looking for pro-life legislation, protecting women's sports. Have you, did it start yet this morning? When's the artificial intelligence?

It started last night, but today's the first full day of programming and stuff. I wish I could be there for the artificial intelligence. thing and the digital dollar because those are things i'm doing so you know all about what i think about what i think i'm not okay right okay i think i taught you about i may i don't know okay that is great bob thank you so much have you guys decided what's going to happen if well eventually uh ronda santis cannot run again for another term so whether he becomes president or whether he just terms out is the state going to be stable

Is it him or have you guys written enough into the laws that it can't be changed? It's not all executive order, right? None of it's really executive order in Florida. We believe in the power of the legislator. If we pass it and he signs it, it's law. States are different than the federal government, thank God. And I know you were just talking about pro-family stuff. We already did boys don't go in girls' room.

We already did boys don't play in girls' sports. We did the heartbait bill. And last year for education, we had the education savings account, but basically gives every single child a voucher to go to any school they want. And Florida, we rank third in K through 12 education now. And 30 years ago, we were the worst. Oh, I live there in the, what, right around 2000. And Florida struggled with schools. And now we're Texas struggling with schools.

And we've got one Republican, the Speaker of the House here in Texas, standing against. school choice. Hopefully that will change. Bob, thank you very much. Justin, we'll see you later. Thanks, Glenn. Back in just a minute, hopefully an update on Hezbollah. The Glenn Beck program. Tragically, we face active evil when it comes to the value of human life. It is no longer safe,

legal, and rare. We're asked to shout your abortion. Look at how many, 40,000 people, 40,000 people under 18 last year. in Canada were snuffed out. The doctors said, hey, you can, you can, you know, exit now if you'd like. We'd help you. And now they're using mental health.

Yeah. So every time they want deniability, send in the Wagner group. Yeah. And the Wagner group is, I mean,

just brutal. Just brutal guys. Right? Yeah. And most of their ranks now are filled with convicts and people they've taken out of Goulogs. Perfect. So last night we found that they were going to provide air cover for

Hezbollah. Should Hezbollah get into the war? So does the Wagner group have planes? Do they have fighters? The Wagner Group, and this is a little insider baseball when I was at military intelligence, we had a chart that had

the Wagner Group as fully part of the Russian Department of Defense. Right. So they were their own little branch of it. So to answer your question, yes, they can get access to planes and whatever they want easily. So that means now the fight would be taken to the air

with Israel if the Wagner group does go in. if Hezbollah goes in. Now, the head of Hezbollah called a press conference today. It was supposed to happen, I think, at 1.30 Greenwich Mean Time, which is like 8.30, our time. And I don't speak Hebblet, Hezbollah. Hezboleinez. He's bo-tie pasta.

It's very good. Hezboleinez. Yeah, Hezbo and Ace. Yes. So, so good. So I don't know what language they speak, but I don't speak it. It's a dialect of 1930s German with a whole lot of screaming and anti-Semitism. So I research this extensively.

All right. So what did he say? Not, it wasn't as bad as I was fearing. Okay, good. Which is great. I just want to set this up. Thousands of people showed up to this. Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, is the most powerful man in Lebanon.

He's not elected. He's not a president. He's not a prime minister. He's a terror leader. And he's the most powerful person in Lebanon. Connected to Iran? Absolutely. Hezbole exists to protect Iranian interests in Lebanon. That's their sole reason for being. But he, it was interesting. Part of his speech was saying definitely, no, no, Iran's not directing this. They support us, but we promise, just trust us. He did say that right off the bat, that this is an American war. He didn't say this was an Israeli war. He didn't say this was a Hamas. war. He said this is an American war. That is trouble. So fully putting the blame on the United States. He said eventually towards the end, he finally got around to what their role was going to be in this war. And he basically was just kind of affirming things that have already happened. He said that they responded at the border. He said Israel was attacking them at the border. He said that we are repelling and doing our part. He said that it was diverting forces away from Gaza. And this was kind of

key to me because he wasn't saying that we are marching across the border and entering this war. He just said they're keeping basically Israel at bay and distracted. That's all he said. Now, what does this mean? Well, I think that this is Iran pumping the brakes and then trying to figure out what our involvement's going to be. So how heavily are we going to respond? Us. Which is really very disappointing because they've been testing us. They've been attacking us using their proxy militias in Iraq, Syria. And they've been attacking us. And our response has been very weak. If I would have been, you know, Lloyd Austin, I would have hit those same militias while he was delivering this speech. Send a clear and concise message. Of course, they're not going

to do that. But they have got to get a lot more tough with their response to their attacks on our forces in Iraq and Syria. They've got to. Because they see weakness in us. And that's what makes them move. Yes. The Iranian Supreme Leader yesterday came out and said something very interesting. especially since we know that our administration has been trying to open up the ties and the purse strings towards Iran. This is what their Supreme Leader said yesterday. Death to America is not just a slogan or a chant. It is our country's official policy toward the U.S. Oh, okay.

the situation between America and Iran is this. When you chant death to America, it is not just a slogan. It is policy. I have stated the reasons previously for many years from the 1940s to the 70s, and that is 30 years. The Americans did everything they could against the Iranian nation. They hit Iran in any way they could, financially, economically, politically, scientifically, and morally.

If it were not for America's support, if it were not for the support of the U.S. weapons, the corrupt and artificial Zionist regime of Israel would have been destroyed in the first week. It would have collapsed. The Americans are behind this. Wow. Let's send them another pallet of cash.

This is so clear. This is what they mean. And how is it our administration can be sending money to the, peace people. Time and time again, every single time, whilst lying to us by trying to tell us that they're moderate. I can't. That will go down in history as one of the biggest manipulations in history. It will be remembered eventually as peace in our day from Chamberlain. Hitler doesn't mean it. Peace in our day. I've talked to him. I know his heart. I've looked into his eyes. I've looked into Puty-Poot's eyes. Yeah. By the way, did you see that

he is running for re-election. Pooty-Poot is running for re-election. And where he's announcing his candidacy is amazing. He is announcing it in front of the Moscow, I don't even know what you would call it, display, I guess, of the Tsar Bamba, the largest hydrogen weapon ever. used by far.

It was dropped in 1961 for test and then never used again. And he's announcing his presidency with that in the background. What the hell does that mean? I would wager that's more direct at his own people, trying to just tell them that they're still strong. They're more willing to do it. I actually see it as a bonus that Cold War era people like Putin are I go back and forth than saying this.

It's good that they're in charge of the nuclear weapons. It really is. Right, because they know still. They know. He's on record saying that the mutually assured destruction is what kept order, you know, and, you know, a multipolar type order. So to me, and people always want to say, let's get rid of Putin. He's a bad evil guy.

When you're looking at the people that will come up underneath him or after him, they're no better. Yeah, I know. There's no like a Lexi Navalny that's going to step. in and be like, oh, I'm going to fix all this and be friends with everybody. No, those don't really exist and they won't really be allowed to take power. So the people underneath Putin are less predictable, making them worse, in my opinion. So if I were to read the tea leaves, Hezbollah is there beating their chest today and saying, we're here and we're going to keep them busy, but we're not going to get involved.

Iran is saying this is because of the Americans, they are signaling all of their Hezbollah soldiers and all of their martyrs that are willing to die all over the world. And their attack will not be a military attack. Their attack will be more terror. And they're saying here, right? They're saying that destroy America,

to America is their, not their slogan, but, you know, their policy. Yeah. We criticize our leaders for not really having a strategy, you know, like, what's your end state? Well, they clearly have an in state. It is death to the big Satan, us, death to the little Satan, Israel. For them, those two go hand in hand, and they're playing a long game. Like all these moves.

You go all the way back to, you know, the end of ISIS when there was a power vacuum. I ran immediately as we were sending them pallets of cats. funded and sent their little foot soldiers, terrorists, all through Iraq, all through Syria, one step closer and closer. Remember you and I played that video, I think you played that video, that memory video, of that it was an Ayatollah or some spiritual leader from Iran. And he was saying the time is now complete. We are finishing the encirclement of Israel. Yes. That is their grand strategy.

They're moving little by little towards that goal. What's happening in the Middle East right now is taking them closer to that goal. So let me ask you one question. I heard a theory and I think it's accurate. You remember when we sent the cluster bombs? Did you hear me talk about this? Yeah. We sent the cluster bombs.

That was so odd because we don't use cluster bombs. The whole world is against cluster bombs. They're really, really dangerous. A lot of times they don't go off. So kids will be out playing years later and they'll hit a cluster bomb and they'll blow up. It's horrible, horrible. And we know that. Why did we give them to Ukraine?

And the theory is, is that we are running so low on the things that they need, you know, more rockets. We're done. We got to have some for us. We can't keep giving them. That we used the cluster bombs and said, here, use these. And that was a signal to Russia and China and Iran. Oh, they're in trouble. They are, they're expending too much of their military.

keep them going, keep them just sending off all of their stuff. Yeah. There was a big portion of a show that we had to cut about two or three weeks ago, and it was running the numbers of the munitions that we do have. And there were some shocking quotes in that. One of them was that they were explaining how the DoD ordering process works, and they renew their orders for ammunition every 12 months or so. We are, and they were saying there's no new contracts.

They were bumbling the whole logistics supply chain to get us restock because everything is going to Ukraine. We are about a year behind in receiving that ammunition. So even, let's say a huge war did blow up in the Middle East. Let's say Iran directly got involved. How would we even respond? I mean, when we call it time out for 12 months? Right. We're four years behind on where we should be with rockets.

if unless we build new plants to build new shells, we're four years away from replenishing what we sent. That's terrifying. Yeah. Terrifying. And I, if we know it, our enemies know it. I mean, you can game that all the way out, too. How are we responding in Taiwan?

If China says, oh, they're depleted in Eastern Europe. They're depleted in the Middle East. They'll walk in to Taiwan. You don't have to have a whole bunch of landing crafts. You'll walk in. What are they going to do? It's China. They'll do exactly what they did in Hong Kong.

They'll just walk in because America won't be able to help and the world will be too distracted. Okay, thank you for that. Sure. Downer on Friday. Jason, I appreciate it.

A world is on fire today. It's Friday. Welcome. We're glad you here. you mentioned Tsar Bomba which is the most powerful nuclear weapon ever

deployed and then that when you mention that it automatically sends me down a rabbit hole because it's like one of the things I'm most fascinated me too yeah it just really is

but think of it was 1,570 times as powerful as Hiroshima or Nagasaki unbelievable now what's really amazing about it

is that was like it had a governor on it. It had a governor on it. Yes, it was designed to be 100 megatons, but they thought, you know what, that may be a tad much for a test. They were certain that it would absolutely liquidate the pilot that dropped it. They were certain that was going to happen. And they were worried that the...

They'd have a hard time finding a pilot, or they're just going to keep that to themselves. Yeah, I think they were... Yeah. It's Russia. They were going to keep it to themselves. But it was, they decided to basically put a tamper on it to make it only go to 50 megatons. Oh my gosh, I didn't know that. Yeah, which is incredible.

Now the most... You know how these are mushroom clouds? The stem of the mushroom within two minutes was 19 miles high of fire. Okay, anyway, go ahead. And they decided to put it in. Now, the most powerful the U.S. ever tested. was 15 megatons. So this was more than three times the most powerful the US ever tested and was designed to be

double that, which is really incredible. You could see the flare from 620 miles away. It was observed in Norway, Greenland, and Alaska. The mushroom cloud was 42 miles high. I mean, 42 mile highs. mushroom cloud. The blast wave circled the globe three times. Oh my gosh.

A seismic wave in the earth's crust was detected multiple times. The glass actually shattered in a place 480 miles away. Four hundred. I mean, that is insanity. And again, this was only half as powerful as they designed it to be. They really just basically did not think. I don't think they thought this one through all that well, but they did eventually release a documentary on it in Russian,

which you probably have seen. It's incredible. Incredible. It's insane. The good news is it is so massive that even right now, they'd have a hard time getting across the border. I'm just, I want to give you some good news, okay, even now. Well

Maybe not I mean they won't They don't have to cut the barbed wire anymore themselves So I give them a little extra time to get it across All right One last final hour of the week Next The Glenn Beck program

If you don't know what year zero is, hang on to your knickers me, mate. Because it's coming soon. It's Friday. Let me tell you about pre-born. It can be easy to become disillusioned and hopeless when you think about, all the things that are going on, and then you add the millions of lives that have been lost

through abortion and the millions more to come, perhaps. It's hard to see a solution. How can we fight so much evil in the world and ever hope to win? Let me tell you something. This is exactly the way people felt in the 1930s, and everything changed after that. The answer is you just get up every day and just do the next right thing. You just remember what the truth is, and you don't move off. The Ministry of Preborn is on a mission to bring the hearts and souls of moms and babies together.

It's time for another episode of everything is racist. Everything is racist. Are going into the panterverse now as we as we as we're going into the pandervors now as we as We are looking at or anthology. Yes. It's very important, Glenn.

I hope you know that a lot of the familiar names you know from birding. I know you're a big birder. I'm not a big birder. Big birder. Glenn said, people don't know that. Big birder. I don't know anybody who is a big birder. Oh, huge burger.

I eat birds. Well, that's why you're looking for them so you can eat them. Okay. But that's a little different than the typical birder. I will say you do it a little bit differently. But you're going to have to say goodbye to some very. familiar bird names. Oh.

Like. Like? I mean, say it with me. Anna's hummingbird. Anna's hummingbird. Anna's hummingbird. Gambles quail. Gambles quail.

Lewis's woodpecker. Lewis's woodpecker. That one sounds like we shouldn't talk about it. What is that? That's Lewis's woodpecker. Just leave him alone. Stop playing with that. Bullock's Oriole.

How many times have you been like, Oh, look. it's Bullock's Oriole. I usually will just say it's an Oriole, but when it's Bullock's orio, it rubs me wrong. It does. It does. Well, apparently, these are going to go away because of the American oranthological society, how they vow to change the English names of all bird species currently named after people, along with any other bird names deemed offensive or exclusionary. Okay.

Now. Okay. Hey, got just a second. Boom, the birds? No, the birds don't care about the names. Birds don't care. It's apparently about human beings, as they discussed in the article at length. So is this happening all over the world in every language?

Any other society that is named a bird? There's only one society that matters. Really? Okay. American ornithological society. Okay. Which is a word I've said many, many times. Not just starting yesterday.

You remember. Yes. Now, there have also banned names that were named after like Native American tribes, because that's also offensive. like the Washington Redskins. That was offensive. We had to get rid of that, even though they approved of it,

about 90% of the people in the tribe approved of it. That didn't matter. So this move comes as a part of a broader effort to diversify birding and make it more welcoming to people of all races and backgrounds. You know what? I have to tell you, because you know me, I'm one with the hood.

And I'm down with my peeps in the hood. And I'm, okay. We're listening to. Lizzo. Lizzo. and she's like, damn, where is, where my phone are?

Where my phone? And I say to myself, Lizzo, have you thought about perhaps birdwatching? Birding. Let's call it by the appropriate term, birding. I'm in the hood.

Okay, so this is like a slang term. Birdwatching is a slang term for birding. Okay, got it. And she says, where they held my phone? And I said, you don't need one. You just go out with all of the stuff that you might get from the or antholical society. And you just go watch them birds. And she said to me, and this is a quote, birding is too racist.

Oh, yeah. And I said, I'm with you. I'm with you on that. But can you explain? And she said, I don't think I have to to you, Glenn. And I said, damn right. That's right. I remember that. You told me about that conversation. It's a really good story.

We have contemporaneous notes backing that up in case anyone's questioning it. So like, this is very common actually. Like a lot of, there's a lot of people who are sitting around and there's like, you know, I'd love to get into birding. But I find the name Lewis's woodpecker to be a little offensive. Can we feel like I'm something else besides? No, you don't understand. Because there's, you know, there's never been an African American in the side of the barn. and now I've got to replace that whole

slat with Lewis's woodpecker no because Lewis's woodpecker put a hole in the barn it's a large bird can let's stop is it let's stop Lewis had a big bird and a lot of people talk about so but you know I don't know are there a lot of people that go through this process

that are like I just you know because there's never been an African American name with the last name of Lewis that's never occurred certainly throughout history so Joe yeah Carl Carl You know, I don't know. There's been some.

But you didn't think. One of Rhode Alice in Wonderland. That one, yeah. Whoever that was. Okay, so biologist Erica Nol says she was recently visiting some salt marshes. Now, I know you have a timeshare near a salt marsh that you visit often. I get all my salt there. Yes.

And she saw a common bird there that's called Wilson's snipe. Now, as you know, there's also never been an African American with the last name Wilson. They don't, never occurred. Flip. Russell. So which this bird has a long bill and engages in dramatic displays such as flying in high circles, which produces a whistling sound as air flows over specialized feathers. Very good. You are a birder, I can tell. Yeah, I can tell. That's the Wilson.

Wilson Snipes. Which I think is actually a pretty cool name. Snite! Yeah, that's what it sounds like. Snit! I do the calls sometimes. But it doesn't say Wilson. It just says snipe. It just says snipe.

Yeah. And this biologist says, quote, and I. I thought, what a terrible name. I mean, Wilson was the father of modern ornithology. But, this bird has so many other evocative characteristics. You know, I mean, when I think of the guy who founded modern orthonology, when I think of him, I think, that damn Wilson, his name is everywhere. Yeah. Everywhere.

What color was Wilson with Tom Hanks? White. The ball was white. Remember that. I got it. Okay. So that's the typical craziness. Number one, they're calling the bird names racist and acting like, you know, some Hispanic person's like, I can't, I would never go into birding now. I've always wanted to bird. But the name, Louis, I may not bird now. Beautiful bird. A little annoying if it's around. your house, but a beautiful bird.

So you have that part. I have a whole nest of them. Yeah. Right. Secondary part of this, which is ridiculous, is they're not just targeting, because I guess there have been in some of these people who named birds who also were around in the 1880s and made racial, racial remarks or did something terrible. I don't know.

So, but they're not just targeting those people. I mean, if it's, if it's like Sherman's N-word, I get it. Right. I get it. You'd understand that. Right. you'd understand a name change with that one. Yeah. And like, you know, we, like, it's hard.

We understand how this process works. We might think it's stupid racing history. But like, this has happened all across the country at this point. They're tearing down statues of freaking Ben Franklin. I mean, this is not. But these guys are not, they're not necessarily bad guys. Wilson's not a bad guy. Right.

They're not targeting only people who have done things that could be deemed offensive by modern sensibilities. Because Tom, Tom's Blue Jay? Tom's Blue Jay. Tom was a badass guy. Yeah. He knocked over a few of the Southland Corporation's best 7-Elevens back in the 40s. Yeah, that's a whole other story.

Yeah. But they're targeting anyone, any name. Any, if you're named after a person, they're getting rid of it. So even if you're the best person in the world. But not all around the world. Just the American or Anthological Society. Got it. Okay.

And all that's crazy. Okay. But that's baseline crazy. There's another level of crazy with the story. And here, here it comes. Um, the president, Colleen Handel, says, that was the first I'd ever really recognize or heard that a name was offensive. She says at that point in time, concerns about injustice, weren't a traditionally accepted reason for changing bird names. But it really started to change in 2020.

When police officer killed George Floyd in Minneapolis. Wait, that's when the bird. The burders said enough of this. Enough of the Wilson's snipe and the Lewis's woodpecker because George Floyd has been killed in Minneapolis. Now you might say, well, what the hell does that have to do with anything? This is a totally different story. No, I might say produce one burder that said that. Right.

Produce just one that said that. But the issue is it was not really George Floyd's murder. Oh, it wasn't. because on that same day, and you may remember, you may forget that this was the exact same day as George Floyd's murder. Same day. Same day. Same day. Remember this. Same day. A white woman. A white woman. In Central Park. In Central Park. Called the police on a black burder named Christian Cooper. So he was a birder. Yes, he was a burder. He was a guy who was in the bushes watching, maybe looking for Lewis's woodpecker. Birdbeck. She called

the police claiming he was threatening her. Less than a month later the group called the group the name is so good. Less than a month

later a group called bird names for birds and birds. I've got to join this organization. Bird names for bird. Can you

look it up, Sarah, real quick, just look up for their mission statement. What is their mission statement? Imagine going door to door, trying to get people to go into we represent the bird names for birds club. Yeah. Okay, so. So bird names for birds.

They write to the American orinthological society and say, hey, George Floyd was killed. This birder was, the police were called by a white woman on this black birder. Therefore, we should get rid of Wilson's name from Wilson's snipe. That's basically how this conversation

went. Now, the problem with the story, if you remember, it was called the Central Park Karen story. This is the story. And the main issue with this part of it is the story has been utterly and completely debunked. There was no black birder.

Well, maybe not utterly, completely. But the black birder did exist, is a human being, but there's a lot of details you probably haven't heard about it. Okay, okay. So should we go into those here? Yeah, I'd like to the detail. Well, you know what? Give me a minute just to get over. Let me get past that.

Majestic. That was actually the bird here. That wasn't me doing that. That's how close my... Well, you did the call, so now they're all showing up. Thanks a lot of. Thanks. Okay.

Let's talk about gold line. You looked at the markets lately? Nothing. Quite like throwing the keys your car down to the poker table and crossing your fingers, right?

10 seconds. Station ID. So if you remember how the... this story went down. Here's a couple headlines. A black man bird watching in Central Park asked a white woman to leash her dog. She called the police. Amy Cooper was her name.

She was charged in Central Park false report against a black bird watcher. And the problem is that an actual crime? Is that the crime she was charged with? A false police report. Yeah. Oh, but not against a black bird watcher. Oh, yeah. Well, that's a separate crime. It's like a hate crime. Okay. Okay. It's like there's false reports.

And then false reports against black burders. Borders. That's bad. So let me give you the footage of this incident because you'll remember it when you hear it. This is Amy Cooper being very frantic and insane. I mean, she's hysterical in this clip. Of course, the black birder was in the right. Here is Amy Cooper. This is from the day George Floyd died. Please stop. Sir, I'm asking you to stop. Please don't come close to me.

Sir, I'm asking you to stop recording me. Please don't come close to me. Please take your phone off. Please don't come close to me. Can I pick any pictures of calling the cops? Please, please call the cops. Oh, this is... I'm going to tell them there's an African-American man threatening my life.

Please tell them whatever you like. I'm sorry, I'm in the ramble, and there is a man African-American who is a bicycle arm with. He's recording me and threatening me and my dog. There is an African-American man I am in separate a heart. He is recording me and threatening myself. and my dog. I'm being threatened by a man into the ramble. Please send the cops immediately.

I'm in Central Parking the ramble. I don't know. Thank you. Okay. Now, she's very hysterical. She's very hysterical. He seems like he's under control and a nice guy. Holy calm guy.

It's two New Yorkers that are just probably a little nuts. They're arguing. I mean, to take you back to this moment, though, in all seriously, New York City around May 2020 was pretty freaking nuts. People were afraid to go outside. This is like, this is like very beginning of COVID. And, you know, we can all look back at some of the hysteria then, you know, with certainly, you know, noticing how ridiculous it was.

Oh, that's probably why she, in her twisted New York way, said he's threatening my life because she was saying don't come close to me. And she's wearing a mask. Well, that could be that. Remember, too, she also had health problems. She was predisposed to being more affected to COVID. She had barely gone out at all outside. She was a terrified person.

And a lot of people in New York at that point were very terrified. They still are. Some of them remained to this day. But what happened to her afterward? She was, you know, white woman who called police on Black Birdwatcher has been fired. They took her dog from her. They took her dog. And she actually went into hiding, left the country and went into hiding after this.

So let's just say for a minute She is a racist and she did this You wouldn't necessarily think you'd have to leave the country But she was being threatened by people She was terrified of everybody It was very very bad for her When we come back on the other side I want to give you the actual perspective

Of what occurred in this incident Because nobody knows Everyone watched it that way The media covered it The way I just described Racist white Karen Going after this black guy For absolutely no reason

And she Good, she got fired. Good, they took her dog. Good, she's out of the country. She's a terrible human being in every way. Okay, I don't agree with that. I'm glad maybe she's out of the country, but for entirely different reasons. Really? Yeah. I mean, oh, gee, we lost another New Yorker who was walking their dog in the park who was wearing a mask and all freaked out about going inside. But I don't, I mean, I'd like her to move away in happy terms. Like, I really don't like it here. Right. People make too much sense. That's true.

Well, I mean, I don't, as far as I know, she's not even a member of bird names for birds. Oh, I don't know. I've got it pulled up here. I can. Oh, you do? I'll look. Yeah. Can I join?

Can I get on board with bird names for birds? Well, I was just looking at the background. Concerns about the honorific common bird names is not new. But this movement seeks to change those names. Mm-hmm. Thank God. Thank God these names are going away. So they're very upset about Bachman Sparrow is the first one they bring.

Oh, really? Yeah, Bachman. What did Bachman do? It was a bad. Just, well, Bachman, I believe that's probably Jewish. Oh. And the Jewish Zionists, they control all of the bird names. I've been hearing that a lot on college campuses lately.

It's interesting. You bring that up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, we'll finish that. And we've got something else for you to chew on over the weekend. Coming up, stand by.

The Glenn Beck Program. Legend has it that in ancient times long ago at the very back of the department store buried for centuries beneath pallets of bathmaths and shower curtains and unsold jean shorts.

Stu, I think we're going to have to come back on Monday with more on this because I'm on bird names for birds. Dot com and I think it needs to be shared. Really? I think it needs to be shared. We need to go more in depth on this. Oh, I think so on Monday. I like that idea. Yeah. Okay.

So reset the table. Okay. All the bird names are changing because the bird names are racist. Thanks to bird names for birds. And dot com. And in addition to that, the Central Park Karen story is central to this because they, that was the impetus for this to change. A white woman hysterically calls 911 on a black guy doing nothing.

He's a birder. And that's how this all starts. Yeah, she looks horrible. She looks horrible. And the video, when I saw it, I thought it looked bad too. I mean, it does. And the black guy seems totally calm. So she's increasingly hysterical.

But he's a bird watcher. So I go down on. Sure. she's increasingly hysterical, getting louder and louder and louder, screaming into the phone, acting like it's getting worse and worse and worse. So why was she so hysterical? Was it a performance? This is from Barry Weiss's podcast, honestly.

This has been described by some journalists as a performance, almost. And certainly for me, when I saw it, like she seemed to be getting increasingly hysterical. I agree. And it's hard not to view that without any context as her, like really trying to pour it on and make this more urgent. But we tracked down the actual 911 call audio, and that was kind of revelatory for me.

Next, city 911, you need police, fire, our medical... I'm sorry, your phone is breaking up really bad. I can't hear anything you're saying. It is abundantly clear that the 911 operator cannot hear what Amy is saying. Ma'am, I cannot hear anything. The phone is breaking up really bad. Immediately when the call goes through, I realize it's a bad connection, and they can't hear me and I can't hear them.

I'm sorry, I can't hear you that. Hunting threatened by a man into the ramble, please send the cops immediately. When I watched this video for the first time, that possibility had not entered my mind. Yeah, it didn't occur to me either. So she's yelling louder and louder because the operator is telling her she can't be heard, right?

That's why she's getting more and she's getting more and more frantic. Now, why is she so frantic? Her claim is that he threatened her before the video turned on. Now, how do we know, right? How could we possibly know if he threatened her? Possibly one way we could know is this, a Facebook post that the guy posted, he uploaded the original video and his sister posted on Twitter as well in the hours after the encounter.

In the post, Christian, the black birder, recorded his contemporaneous. account of what happened in the moments before the camera started rolling. Quote, he says to her, look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it. Now, that's a threat. That is a threat. This is, by the way, in an isolated area where they're having a bad interaction. She, he also, by the way, is carrying dog treats.

He's a birder carrying dog treats. Why would he do such a thing? well he's apparently had many incidents with other dog walkers that he didn't like because birders are mad at dog walkers. There's a bird versus dog battle going on apparently in this area. Dogs chase birds away. Right. So there he's very mad. This has happened so many times.

He's gone to the store, purchased dog treats and brings them to lure the dogs away from their dog owners when they're off the leash. And I know if you're someone who's the guy. A big guy says to you, hey, look, if you're going to do what you want, Tiki-capping your dog off the leash, I'm going to do what I want, and you're not going to like it. That's from his account of this incident. So was it a one-time thing? Was this, well, apparently not. Was it a racist thing where white women are mad at him? Apparently not. May 2020 testimony provided by Jerome Lockett, a black man, said Christian had aggressively threatened him in the park as well. Among the details, when I saw that, video, I thought, I cannot imagine if he approached her the same way how she may have approached me. She would have been genuinely afraid for her life. Wow. He continued, if I wasn't who I was, I would have called the police on that guy too. Instead, he wound up pushing the guy over and they got into a physical altercation. He also says, same witness, black guy. He says, my two fellow dog owners have had similar interactions with this man, but don't feel comfortable coming forward

because they are white. They think they'll be seen as some Karen or whatever. So this guy had done this. He had talked publicly about having these incidents and bringing the dog treats intentionally to intimidate dog owners. Talked about it publicly. None of this was reported initially.

Now, think about this from the perspective of the previous big controversy on the left, the Me Too movement. Here's a woman by herself being threatened by a man, the woman is a previous victim of sexual violence. Is she?

Yeah. Oh my gosh. She's terrified by this guy. She doesn't know what's going on. There's no context of that could be in any of the reporting. This is again from honestly. And in this story,

there's a woman. She's in an isolated place budding up against the woods and she's suddenly being threatened by a man who's much physically larger than she is. And by his own account, he says to her, If you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it.

Yeah. And it's one of the things that's most surprised me about media coverage of these events. A lot of the media outlets who are involved in pushing narratives about Me Too, in this particular context, are either completely omitting this detail of the story or they are framing it in a way that makes it seem completely innocuous. So the media coverage is maybe the biggest part of this because they wanted this story to be a certain way. They wanted it to be true so badly. Now, the New York was important to note. That witness I talked about,

the other African-American gentleman who was, the New York Times had all of this information throughout their reporting and didn't put it in any story for weeks. Oh, my God. Weeks. Eventually, they did stick it in a story. And the details of that are almost even more infuriating.

Listen. The Times does eventually get around to quoting Christian Cooper saying, if you're going to do what you want to do, I'm going to do what I want to do, but you're not going to like it. But not until 2,300 words into a 2,500 word story. Oh, my God. You don't get the actual threat that he issued to her until you've already read about Amy Cooper's years old affair with a married man that ended in a lawsuit. And Mr. Cooper's childhood history of bird watching, his love of comic books, his graduation from Harvard. Unbelievable. They made it. an editorial decision to bury the complicating details of this account in a way that would not create question marks around the bit of moral clarity that they seem to be going for with this story. This needed to be a pristine account of the peril that black men face in America, of the peril that black people face just going about their daily business. And the fact that this story maybe doesn't fit that narrative, never seems to enter into anyone's imagination. I honestly can't recommend enough going back and listening to that episode of honestly with Barry Weiss. It's on the Central Park Karen. The whole thing is incredible. And there's much more detail we left out because

of time. It is, this is why truth matters. There's got to be people who, because I know that story, but I didn't know all of that. I mean, that's shocking, just shocking. Back in just a second.

Telecharge it right now. Let me take you back 30 days ago. It was October 5th. I launched a 40-day guide to understanding

the covenants in the Bible and everybody was like we're doing a covenant show on what? The old...

Uh... But it seemed like an insane move at the time and you know me being insane launching a study of the bible on a commercial radio program didn't seem like the best move but i did it anyway i told you it was a major risk at the time that all logical reasons told me not to do it but i felt like i needed to so we did two days later october seventh israel was attacked by hamas the week that week we were studying the covenant that God made with Abraham when God promised him and the people a land, the land of Israel. Suddenly, it wasn't just an old dusty Bible story with no modern relevance.

It suddenly was real. It was the core of the conflict. I walked through my office that week, and I saw my research team searching through Bibles. And when you see multiple members of your staff reading Book of Revelation, it's a little Eerie, a little eerie. But whether you believe in God or not, you cannot understand what's happening in Israel if you don't understand the Bible. You can't understand the evil that we are fighting. You can't make sense of evil if you don't understand at least the idea of God. Why are the Jewish people so hated? There's tons of reasons. Why does everybody have an opinion

about Israel, a nation six times smaller than Florida? Because having people, you know, Jewish people living in a land promised to them by God just might prove that God is real. The reason why people hate Israel is a God thing. It is. They look at that tiny little nation that was promised to be restored and then was 2,000 years later and you're what? Israel's not a perfect nation. Jews aren't perfect. Not at all. Nobody is. But what sets that nation and people apart is that God was talking about them to Abraham 2,000 years ago. And for generations, that land and people have represented God to the world, even if they didn't want to. Remember, Jesus came to the Jew first and then to the Christians. Is it a coincidence that that is exactly the same order

that evil uses? First, they visit the Jews and then they come for the Christians. This is why conflict matters in the West. Even to non-believers, our nation was founded on the principles of the Old and New Testament. It's a story about the people of Israel. It's the backbone of our freedom, our ideas of justice and alienable rights, liberty. All of that comes from the Old Testament. All of it.

That's why Hamas hates us as well, because we also represent God. the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even now, when we're losing our minds because of our history, we are permanently connected to that God. And the same is true in Israel. And we can't escape our own history. And I don't want to. I love our founding principles. I love that we're a nation that says no man can take away the rights that God gives.

Believers and unbelievers, all of us should be able to live freely. The Bible is part of the American story. The land of Israel is the main setting in the Bible. You want to understand why we're hated? Study the Bible. Today, 30 days into our 40-day fast and prayer, we're launching into the study again. If you want to go, if you will, go to glenbeck.com. I invite you right now to sign up.

We're actually like 13 days away from making the covenant on the air. And I really want you to understand it, understand how it fits in America, understand why Abraham Lincoln did it, why our pilgrims did it, why George Washington did it,

and what it means when we become a covenant people that break the covenant. This is essential if you really want to restore America. It starts with you in your home with your family. Do that now at glenbeck.com. How much time do I have here, sir? Two minutes. I've got a present for you, Stu. I got this and they screamed you.

Really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So you'll have to. Biden. instruction manual? Yes. Now, it's not spelled the same way. I mean, it's spelled the same way, but it has a capital D. Yeah, it does. I noticed that. Byden. Biden. But it's a Biden. It's an original.

I mean, this is an authentic Biden watch. Really? Yeah. And I, I thought of you, when I saw it, I thought, you know, who needs a Biden watch? Is to, because, yeah, and it's just like, it's just like Joe Biden. It is. It's very glamorous. It just screams. I'm a Corvette driver. I mean, an old Corvette driver.

And it identifies my life. That's what I think it screams. It also screams, I've never really worked for my money at all. Yeah, I mean, it does, it has a lot of shiny stuff on it. But none of it's real. I was going to say, it does feel very plastic. Yeah.

None of it. The gold's not real. And the best thing is it doesn't work at all. I mean, it'll keep time, but not really. Yeah, not with the hands. I'm noticing the hands, but there's a digital element behind it, which is very nice. Very nice. And that seems to be working. Yeah, you can't trust it to tell you anything. No. Okay. So, but I thought, I mean, you'd be the first, you're the first to have the Biden, the Biden watch. Wow. Now, where did you get this? Is this a real? This is a real thing. Is it supposed to make fun of Joe Biden or is it real? Nope. Is it supposed to be good? A friend, I'm actually re-gifting.

A friend of mine gave that to me and I thought, we've got to become the wholesaler of Biden watches. That is so horrible, so ugly, so awful. Wait, is it meant to actually celebrate Joe Biden? No. It's just a separate brand. It's a separate brand called Biden. But it screamed to me, Joe Biden. It screams to me hair plugs.

Yes. It's perfect. It's perfect. It actually says on the back, it's stainless steel back. Well, that's the only place that's actual metal on the entire watch. Oh, it's made entirely out of heavy metal plastic. Oh, okay. Well, that's good.

So, yeah. Wow. The Glenn Back Program.
